It pisses me off when people say that Valtr is a genocidal maniac. I've seen someone say that you get vermin whenever killing any boss when a confederate is summoned, but I definitely killed the defiled amygdala with the help of a confederate, and both of us were using the league rune, and I didn't get any vermin. I'm pretty sure you only get vermin with a league cooperator when you summon Valtr and he lives to the end of the fight. Both of the fights he's summoned at are Ludwig and Laurence who definitely both have vermin. A lot of people cite the "nothing out there deserves to live" line but isn't what he's saying just the same as Eileen saying "there are no humans left. Just flesh hungry beasts now". Plus, Valtr has more to his character then just wanting to kill. It's obvious from his dialogue that he cares greatly about his fellow confederates. His dying words are literally him saying that his fellows will always have his blessing, even in death. Yeah, Valtr is definitely fucking insane and loves hunting, but he's not the evil kill genocide man everyone describes him to be. I have some other ideas in this post as well (x).

I remember you talking about getting vermin from an amygdala fight or something with the impurity rune equipped when I was talking about only getting vermin from beast bosses, and I still don’t know if it’s true or not. However, it would make reasonable sense for most bosses to have vermin in them, since vermin live in the old blood, which is sourced from the great ones, so it’d make sense if a great one somehow got infected by vermin. It’d also make sense for kin and the pthumerians, since if you’re kin, you probably were once a yharnamite and had the blood, and if you’re a pthumerian, you probably also had the blood. This is probably a bad explanation, I’m not good at getting thoughts onto paper, or keyboard in this case

Thanks Bobby! (if it's still ok I call you like that!)

Well it's kinda tricky, could be just a game mechanic (so no sure what's in the lore or not) but yeah if you coop (with another player) in the chalice dungeons or are summon and you have the league runs you got vermin when you defeated bosses (the chalice dungeons sure the others I'm not sure I haven't test).

You get vermin if you summon Valtr and he survived the fight with Ludwig and Laurence. In solo you can also have it on 3 old hunters with the red eyes if you have the rune equip. In coop I got some vermin in chalice dungeons bosses like the 3 watchers and the bloodletting beasts and I guess it work with amygdala as well.

In the end idk if ALL the ones we can get here are link to the lore or just gameplay but I think vermin might evolve into the hateful maggots and blood dregs are literally another sorts of impurity as well.

The church and the league seems to fight against this impurity but I think almost all the old blood is not very "pure" ( and have small microscopic parasites) and that's what will eventually mutated them into beasts or make them go crazy. And in certain conditions those parasite changed and become bigger to be seen.

So mad with NG+ Laurence HOLY SHIT FUCK HIM but the only thing that's stopping me from raging so hard is his theme.

[fantomette22]

Those looks very good!

More parasites in Bloodborne finally 🙏

Some Yahrnam parasite research…

Actually I didn’t really learnt any of those knowledge before so I did the research recently…therefore there will be lots of misunderstanding and wrong (?) parts. sorry for that_(:3

@loadingbones BLOODBORNE DRAWTOBER PROMPT 1: "Bloodbath"

Before the League, before Yamamura, Henryk, and Madaras, even before vermin, there was just Constable Valtr, who witnessed every member of his policing team bleed out one by one.

found a genuinely interesting little lore tidbit in the fan made re-translation guide for bloodborne. one of the unexplained ~spooooky~ aspects of the world of bloodborne is the ability for people to see without using their eyes. you'll find characters and enemies wearing blindfolds (some made out of solid metal) that would block one's vision entirely but they still get around just fine. you too as the player can do this with no problem. some characters or enemies have eyes that have fallen out or been taken. this is a presumed benefit of having insight. get it. lol. anyway:

insight, the player mechanic, is gained either by seeing something important/beating a boss or cracking open a skull for the slug inside, as "invertebrates known to be augurs of the Great Ones". one such invertebrate thats more low key about what it does are vermin. vermin, unlike other invertebrates, can only be seen by league hunters and are collected by the player for co-op reasons. the league is a collection of hunters that are considered nuts even by local standards and are run by a distrusted foreigner named valtr.

valtr's most distinctive feature is his crude bucket helmet with the shittily made hole in it. this item has two different item descriptions depending on how you acquire it, by killing valtr or having it left for you so you can assume the position of new master of the league.

the first revelation is:

"A single hole allows one to peek out with a single eye, which is probably all that its original owner had"

(unrelated to this point, but there are pthumerian enemies in the chalice dungeons with one eye and strange helmets. the league is likely as old as pthumeru itself)

but the translation says:

"Perhaps its original owner may have been like that, one-eyed only, and opened a peep hole."

hey that's different. this implies that the eyeless helmet came first, the owner discovered the ability to see and crush vermin, and presumably lost the bizarre blind-sight ubiquitous to the small slice of the game world after ridding himself of them all within his blood.

like, they're trying to draw a connection between the existence of vermin (ARGUABLY the invertebrates of formless oedon) and sight. very cool.

unrelated but its also a steel helm and not iron. i have no idea why they changed that one. metal means things in this game and iron is a school of mensis metal
