The Top 10 Most Datable Dark Souls Bosses

Look, we all know the bosses of Dark Souls can get it. But which ones are the cream of the crop? Who would treat your right and hold you gently as the embers of our dying world finally fade into shadow?

By using a precise bracket system I compared every single boss in the franchise (including the DLC) to determine the most dateable monstrosity From Software has concocted. Here were my results:

#10: The Lost Sinner:

Reasoning: 100% the underdog in this race. You wouldn’t really expect the Lost Sinner to make it into the top ten considering how gloomy and encrusted with insects she is. She is the sort who does nothing but sulk alone in her prison cell so you can’t expect her to take you anywhere fun on dates. She blames herself for everything and her emotional baggage keeps her from being a very emotionally open partner. However, I feel that she has a sensitive side and when she finally opens up to you, you’ll really feel safe around her. The two of you can just stay indoors and talk about your feelings, and that is a valuable quality in a potential date-mate. Plus she is a vessel of a Great Soul, so if you ever break up you can slay her to obtain great power.

#9: Dancer of the Boreal Valley:

Reasoning: Not a lot of Dark Souls 3 bosses managed to break the top ten because they all tend to be more selfish in their villainy than the more tragically evil bosses of 1 and 2. She is an exiled knight and a talented dancer, which gives her a real air of mystery. Due to her tragic past, she probably has a lot of walls around her, and you’ll need to be patient with her as she warms up to you at her own pace. You can tell she has a quiet nobility and sense of duty to her actions, and she deserves someone who will take the time to get to know her. Plus she could possibly be related to Queen Gwynevere and what is more tragically romantic than an exiled warrior who turns out to be a switched-at-birth princess?

#8: Ceaseless Discharge:

Reasoning: This sloppy lava boy often ends up on a lot of ‘worst Dark Souls boss fights’ lists, and I understand why. But we are not here to discuss the mechanics of a boss fight we are here to find love. The Ceaseless Discharge doesn’t attack you and spends all of his time protecting the grave of his beloved sister. That is the mark of a true gentleman. The only male child of the Witch Izalith, he probably grew up surrounded by his loving supportive Sisters, the Daughters of Chaos. This mopey magma man is probably a big sweetheart who reads poetry and is too shy to confess his feelings for you. As long as you have the Orange Charred Ring or Flash Sweat, you can bet this guy is up for an evening of cuddling and drinking tea as you look out over the Demon Ruins. I think we should all look past his lack-luster boss fight and look instead at his sweet gooey center.

#7: The Rotten:

Reasoning: At first The Rotten might not seem very romantic, he is a pile of corpses in a flaming pit of oil at the bottom of a poison soaked cave, but like Shrek this big boy has layers. The Rotten accepts all the lost souls that nobody else wants, he cares for those nobody else will care about. If you romance this flesh golem, he will be supportive and understanding from day one. He will let you talk about your troubles and will kiss your scars sweetly as you fall asleep in his many writhing arms. This guy is a gentle giant and he probably has his life together despite how it looks from the outside. You can really be yourself around this guy, he won’t judge you for how you look and he will always tell you how lovely you are. Plus, he has a creative side. When he is not busy caring for his slimey subjects, he spends his free time carving all the poison statues you see in the Black Gulch. The first ‘daddy’ to appear on this list and certainly not the last.

#6: Capra Demon:

Reasoning: Ok I know I just talked about how the Rotten teaches us to not judge people by their appearances and judge them by what is on the inside… but come on. You all knew the Capra Demon was going to be somewhere on this list. This is the sort of Boss you don’t take home to meet your parents. The Capra Demon isn’t the first Dark Souls boss you’d want as a long term partner but he IS the first you’d want for a short passionate fling. He has a bad boy streak a mile long and abs you can bounce quarters off of. More than just his chiseled body, what makes the Capra Demon so mouth watering is the brief flashes of hidden depth you see in him. He doesn’t open up to you much, but you can tell he loves his two rescue dogs. His four blood red eyes light up whenever he pets them and you always find dog treats in his pants pockets when you pick them up off your bedroom floor. He acts all tough in front of you but he clearly has a softer side, that is why this one night stand turned into a several week affair. If the two of you could only learn to communicate then maybe it will finally become something more.

#5: Covetous Demon:

Reasoning: The Capra demon is all sizzle and no substance, and in many ways, the Covetous Demon is the polar opposite. This big slug boy used to a prince who was cursed by a witch because he fell in love with the wrong person. Even if he looks scary you know this guy is a hopeless romantic. This is a Boss who did nothing wrong and was punished simply for following his heart. If you open up to him he will return your feelings in kind and treat you right. Plus I was lying when I said he had no sizzle. This guy has grade-A thiccness and you know he would be super understanding when it comes to romance. I want to take this guy to the pier and hold hands as we share ice cream. Plus he can protect you with his serrated spinal bones that can shred through stone. This dreamy demon daddy deserves someone who will make him feel like the prince charming his is on the inside. What is his flabby skin made out of? Marriage material.

#4: Knight Artorias:

Reasoning: Possibly the nicest guy in the entire Dark Souls universe, Artorias is that guy who is so out of your league that your heart get all fluttery when he is in the same room as you, so the idea of dating him doesn’t even enter your mind. Even still, he sees something special in you and he makes you feel like the most wonderful person in the world, how did you get so lucky to snag such a gentleman? This is the sort of guy you take with you to your High School reunion to make all your classmates jealous. Of course he sometimes comes across as too perfect and he can get on your nerves from time to time. Like how he always insists on doing all the chores himself or how he oozes the corruptive fluids of the abyss onto your carpet. Luckily if you are stern with him, and you equip the Covenant of Artorias ring to counteract the effects of the abyss I see another sort of ring in your future. Artorias is a daddy of the highest order and is like an emotionally available version of the Capra Demon, after all both of them love their dogs.

#3: Chaos Witch Quelaag:

Reasoning: If you think the only reason Quelaag is datable is because of her naked human torso I have news for you: You are a coward. We are here for the lovely kind hearted spider underneath that torso. Quelaag is a powerful and ambitious lava spider, she doesn’t have to spend all of her time down in the depths, she could be out there conquering various kingdoms or acquiring forbidden magic. Instead of being selfish, Quelaag understands the importance of family. She protects and cares for her disabled little sister and probably even takes care of her little brother, the Ceaseless Discharge. If he ended up so sweet and sensitive because of the people who raised him, you can bet that it was Quelaag who taught him how to be a gentleman. She might vomit lava and wield a flaming sword, but the warmest thing about this Boss is her heart.

#2: Crossbreed Priscilla:

Reasoning: I almost considered leaving Priscilla off this list because it was pretty obvious she would end up cleaning house in the brackets. But I would be lying if I didn’t say she is one of the most eligible bachelorettes in the entire series. I believe it is because she embodies the best out of every previous Boss on this list. She has all of their kindness and all of their strength. Priscilla protects all the inhabitants of the Painted World and tries to help them hold onto their humanity even if that is an impossible goal. More than any Boss, she deserves someone who will stand by her side and help the lost souls who can’t help themselves. She doesn’t even attack you until you attack her first. What sort of monster would try and kill such a good-natured Boss anyway? 

#1: The Burnt Ivory King:

Reasoning: Introducing the daddy to end all daddies. The Burnt Ivory King stands tall above all other Bosses as the number one most datable. Let’s talk about the Ivory Kings seduction prowess. They resisted the temptation of Alsanna and made her fall in love with them instead. The Burnt Ivory King is the undisputed master of Dark Souls romance, and that isn’t even factoring in the theory that the Notorious B.I.K. is actually a woman posing as a man. (Due to their armor only healing women and them never taking off their mask.) While all the other kings fell to the evil allure of Manus and his daughters, B.I.K. pulled a literal ‘I am no man’ and turned the wooing right back at them.

Let’s be real here, a giant magic possibly bisexual warrior Queen disguised as a King who managed to reform an evil demon princess with the power of love is nothing short of a raging sexpot.

Everyone should have ‘Burnt Ivory King’ on their list of exceptions. If you ever cross paths with this absolute snack of a Boss you take that opportunity and you don’t think about the consequences.

Not only are they one of the most thrilling Boss fights in the entire franchise, they are also a total daddy/mommy based on what lore you read into. The fires of the Old Chaos don’t burn as bright for my love of this Boss.

Im sorry but ceaseless discharge souds like the name of a vaginal std

[gjorg-of-drangleic]

Garl Vinland’s cameo in Dark Souls: Age of Fire has opened my mind to the prospect of the Penetrator and Ceaseless Discharge knowing each other in the comic books’ canon.

[kirstielol]

my latest obsession, i've been replaying one of my all time favourite games!

i downloaded a couple crazy mods that i've been playing with.. one of them randomizes all enemy spawns. so anywhere an enemy usually spawns, it'll spawn something random, including bosses. so random bosses can spawn where enemies usually are, or normal enemies can spawn where bosses are

the second mod i'm using is a location randomizer. it puts up a fog door in almost every doorway, and walking through the fog door takes you somewhere completely random. then the third mod is an item randomizer. it randomizes all item locations and item drops. it's like everything about the game, enemies, items, and locations, is all shuffled. it's super interesting

basically it's turned the game into a big scavenger hunt for the lord vessel and the four lord souls needed to beat the game. it's so addicting, i'm already doing a second play through after beating my first run last night lol

[vicsep7250]

It'll be hard to lure him over to the fog gate since he has the Discharge Cannon and can blast you across the arena. It's sorta a one and done deal if you dont aggro him and then run back to the gate, 'cause that's all he'll use to attack you if you hide and try to lure him.

The caveat is that he is big and slow, so you can sprint outta the way of his Arm Slam and safety roll. Just uh- Don't get hit.

oh fuck juking the giant lava demon didnt work this how the fuck do you actually fight this thing????????

[cerastes]

If Arknights ever managed to land the fabled FromSoft collab somehow, we could get some pretty good alt skins for characters, I think! Such as:

Mudrock -> Havel the Rock skin, complete with Dragon Tooth for extra heavy bonking.

Hellagur -> The Owl skin, they are both Old Men With Massive Odachi, it writes itself.

Kirin R Yato -> Lady Butterfly skin, and also it'd be hilarious to grab what's basically an outfit crossover character and give it another outfit altogether.

Specter/Laurentina -> Valtr, Master of the League skin, to bring things back full circle since Specter is literally a reference to Valtr in the first place.

Gladiia -> Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower skin, same as Specter.

Gravel -> Dancer of the Boreal Valley skin, because you know she'd rock that outfit and the dual blades.

Kirin R Yato -> Skeleton Wheel skin, for that S3.

Reed the Flame Shadow -> Firekeeper skin. But this Firekeeper keeps the fire in people's burning corpses.

Ch'en -> Gaping Dragon skin. Self-explanatory.

Ifrit -> Ceaseless Discharge skin, but it's hilariously shoddily made and it looks cute, clearly made by Ifrit with her own hands and some duct tape.

Kazemaru -> Flexile Sentry skin, the puppet is literally her just turning around and letting her "other body" face to the front.

Typhon -> Starscourge Radahn skin, what with the greatbow mastery and techniques such as shooting multiple greatarrows at once and shooting a rain of pinpoint orbital greatarrows on enemies.

Rosa -> Greatbow Silver Knight skin. You know exactly which one. That one. Yeah.

Gummy -> Aldritch, Devourer of Gods skin. Self-explanatory.

FrostNova -> Ashen One skin. Self-explanatory.

Amiya -> Solaire of Astora skin. Because she's our friend and gives us hope! But watch out. On S3 activation, she gets the Sunlight Parasite.

W -> Unbreakable Patches skin. Because you know she'd rock that leather armor and have fun kicking people right into loot.

Ling -> Rom the Vacuous Spider skin, but also adorably shitty. Ifrit made it with spare materials, including little spiderling fits for Ling's dragons. She finds it funny and cute so she wears it.

Dark Souls Gamer 1: anyon1 have any tips for cheesing the ceaseless discharge boss. I'm stuck idk what I'm doing wrong. thanx

Dark Souls Gamer 2: Only pathetic casual cucks resort to cheese strategies. Just fight the boss normally

Soulstober Stories part 11:

36. Gravelord Nito

37. Ceaseless Discharge

38. Demon Firesage

As I hadn't seen the original trailers for Dark Souls, coming to the series a few years later, I wasn't quite sure what to make of Nito at first! In the midst of battle, where all you can make out is a shadowy, shaggy mass with a sword, it felt more like I'd disturbed some kind of ancient, hibernating animal. After a disastrous first attempt, I learned to keep my distance to avoid both waking the dead (literally) and the toxic miasma surrounding him.

For Ceaseless Discharge, I mostly felt pity, considering he's in mourning and has no desire to initiate conflict until you provoke him. Unfortunately necessary in order to progress through the Demon Ruins, but I at least postponed looting his sister's armour until *after* his death...

[headcanontheshitoutofsoulsborne]

Alright, so let's see... Laurence won?! WELL! I guess his blood is literally magma, so the guy must be hot to the touch.

Okay, guys!

Now that I think of it, in DS you are a huge jerk😂

[themori-witch]

As per request by a lovely anon, here are some general updates about me and my life:

I adopted four female rats from the RSPCA last year. It took some work but they are very sweet and silly. Their names are Tali, Liara, Kasumi, and Aria.

Due to an incident in which I was lied to by the employee of a major retailer about two of the rats in their adoption centre, Kasumi and Aria ended up pregnant. I now have 6 beautiful little baby rats as a result. They're gorgeous and doing very well, as are the mothers. They're 5 weeks old.

I'm still in a relationship with my lovely gamer boyfriend. We'll be celebrating 7 years together this year. 💕

Health stuff... I'll try to condense this:

- After a barrage of tests, cameras, scans, and more, I was officially told that I have severe Gastroparesis, which we all but knew. Unfortunately, that was pretty much the end of it. No further appointments, no medication to help symptoms - nothing. I was very much left to fend for myself, and that led to two hospitalizations, one in December of 2023 and one in February of 2024.

- December wasn't unfamiliar territory: 20 hours of vomiting and being unable to keep anything down led to my blood sugars being extremely high (Diabeyic Ketoacidosis). I stayed in for a few days after the DKA cleared up for monitoring.

- February was... terrifying. Started off the same as December with ceaseless vomiting, but the vomit turned to blood, and I could not stop bringing it up. Couldn't move, keep anything down, vision loss and lots, and lots of bringing up blood. I was in agony. I was rushed to A&E, where I was given anti-emetics and pain relief regularly through the many IVs I had in. Once the vomiting stopped, I was faced with another issue: my oesophagus was so inflamed and damaged that I couldn't eat or drink. I was kept in for 5 days and told that I was at risk of refeeding syndrome as I'd not eaten properly for about 3 days prior to admission. Luckily, that didn't happen, mostly because I was physically incapable of having more than a spoonful of yoghurt or mashed potato for over a week. We found out via my discharge papers that I'd had an Upper GI Haemorrhage. Scary scary scary. One good thing did happen after this admission, though! The team caring for me were absolutely outraged that I'd just been ignored since diagnosis, and I was sent home with an array of medication that has really helped me to get a handle on my symptoms during a flare up.

- Oh! I managed to catch Covid-19 quite literally on Yule and was very sick throughout New Year. I am vaccinated but caught a strain from Finland from a family member who had been there just before Yule.

I got another tattoo! It's one that I've wanted for almost a decade and I thought, given the stuff I've dealt with in the last 4 months, I deserve a treat.

[akimatter]

so i had a really weird night last night and i can’t remember if this was real or a dream, so help me here because im too scared to look it up:

is there really an elden ring/bloodborne/dark souls character named “ceaseless discharge” because my guess is that they’d be like lightning based or something but i just remember hearing that and thinking “oh boy”
