Fire Keeper Soul
In Game Description
Fire Keeper Soul (Generic)
Soul of a long-lost Fire Keeper.
Each Fire Keeper is a corporeal manifestation
of her bonfire, and a draw for the humanity
which is offered to her. Her soul is gnawed
by infinite humanity, and can boost the power
of precious Estus Flasks. Reinforced Estus
Flasks capture denser Estus, allowing for
increased restoration of HP.
Fire Keeper Soul (Anastacia of Astora)
Soul of the Ash Maiden,
Fire Keeper of Firelink Shrine.
A Fire Keeper's soul is a draw for humanity,
and held within their bosoms, below just a
thin layer of skin, are swarms of humanity
that writhe and squirm.
Was the Ash Maiden locked in this dark prison
for some transgression, or by her own will?
Fire Keeper Soul (Lady of the Darkling)
Soul of the Darkmoon Knightess,
Fire Keeper of Anor Londo.
A Fire Keeper's soul is a draw for humanity,
and held within their bosoms, below just a
thin layer of skin, are swarms of humanity
that writhe and squirm. Her brass armor
serves to disguise this ghastly form.
Fire Keeper Soul (Quelaag's Sister)
Soul of a Daughter of Chaos,
Fire Keeper of Quelaag's Domain.
A Fire Keeper's soul is a draw for humanity,
and held within their bosoms, below just a
thin layer of skin, are swarms of humanity
that writhe and squirm.
To her, the countless eggs which appeared
were cradles for each tiny humanity.
Availability
- Dropped by Lady of the Darkling (her Fire Keeper Soul)
- Dropped by Quelaag's Sister (her Fire Keeper Soul)
- Dropped by Knight Lautrec of Carim after you invade his world with Black Eye Orb and kill him in Anor Londo (Anastacia of Astora's Fire Keeper Soul)
- Treasure from a corpse on the altar in Undead Parish, near the shortcut to Firelink Shrine, guarded by a non-respawning Heavy Knight
- Treasure from a corpse in upper New Londo Ruins. From the Firelink Shrine elevator, go left until you reach the wooden bridge. Cross the bridge until you are in the area with the Ghosts. Walk on the right side of the area but be careful not to fall off. If you have drained the ruins of water, there will be a narrow pathway leading to a small, broken down structure with the corpse in plain sight. Proceed to the Fire Keeper Soul, but be careful of the three Ghosts that will spawn when near the structure.
- Treasure from a corpse inside a cell in Blighttown. From the swamp elevator, get on the elevator, then get off at the highest point. Climb the short ladder. After the Cragspider, go forward to the stone-walled area with the Blowdart Snipers. Cross the wooden bridge (you can see the cell while you're on the bridge, look left and below), you'll see a ladder to the lower stone-walled area. This lower area is occupied with Flaming Attack Dogs. Go forward a bit, then turn right to see the cell with the corpse, guarded by two Flaming Attack Dogs.
- Treasure from a corpse in The Duke's Archives' prison tower's giant cell. It's in the same cell where Big Hat Logan is held captive; the cell guarded by Pisacas. You need the Archive Tower Giant Cell Key to open the cell door.
Use
- Grants 5 Humanity (stat) if consumed.
- Fully restores HP.
- Trade to any Fire Keeper (Anastacia of Astora, Quelaag's Sister, or Lady of the Darkling) to upgrade your Estus Flask, to a maximum of Estus Flask +7. Use "Reinforce Estus Flask" in their dialogue option.
- Feed to Kingseeker Frampt for 1,000 souls.
Notes
- You cannot carry more than 7 unique Fire Keeper Souls (One from each location/drop). If you attempt to pick one you already possess in your inventory, your character will simply leave the item on the ground.
- It's not advisable to consume the Fire Keeper Soul until after your Estus Flask is at +7 (maximum level), or at least at the level where it can fully heal you with a single charge (i.e. when you have low max HP)
- It's also not advisable to consume Anastacia of Astora's Fire Keeper Soul if you still want to use Firelink Shrine's bonfire
