I really don't think that Shira's change of hair color for the game is just devs being lazy or something like that tbh. There is a big difference between "cutting corners" and "modeling from concept art and not spending 1 second to move all RGB sliders to 255" 🤔 I think it might have a meaning

Shira is "daughter of the duke", her crown has a pearl from one of Seath's favorite creatures (Man Eater Shell lol), her clothes state being of royal blood, she follows Filianore, she yields lightning and according to Japanese script Seath at SOME point was part of the royal family upon marrying a female relative of Gwyn (like sister, aunt, niece etc)! I think it works the best if Shira is the child of that union, and possibly dark blonde is a gene of her mother!

Alternatively, whereas Gwyndolin had prolonged exposure to Moon aura that might have given him bleach white skin and snakes and tiddies, maybe Shira instead had a prolonged exposure to Sun aura! It could have had a reverse effect of concealing dragonic features, down to changing her hair color from bleach white (again, trait passed from Seath) to blond!

Also I swear Seath got divorced at least three times at this rate gjgjghgh

[literally-1894]

Frampt can't stand Seath, Shira and Priscilla are both descended from Seath, Shira has some family resemblance to Gwynevere, Yorshka looks quite a bit like Shira and has physical features indicating her to be descended from Seath, "maiden of Gwynevere" might actually mean "female descendent" (not sure on this one, haven't read the original Japanese), Lothric was produced by "unspeakable means" through Oceiros' identification with Seath, Gwyndolin, despite having very easy access to Seath's sorceries and using Logan sorceries quite proficiently, never touched Crystal Sorcery in his life, Seath spent an inordinate amount of time torturing the Maidens of Gwynevere, the "Power of the Moon" might actually refer to the Moonlight Greatsword, thus being related to dragons, snakes are imperfect dragons, a massive taboo around Seath and Seath Worship is maintained through the series, the only named characters Seath abducts (Reah, Dusk, and Sieglinde) are women, the Queen of Lothric left Oceiros after giving birth to Ocelotte (a "child of dragons, who looks a bit like Priscilla"), we still don't know how Yorshka is descended from both Gwyn and Seath, and Yorshka seems to have relied on similar invisible bridges to guide people to her tower to what you find in the Crystal Cave.

I feel like I am going insane.

Midir ng+2 made me give up on using Shira due to her trying to tank the fire lazer in phase 1. I wanted to see her survive for the first time due to my stats being better but… Nope.

Idiot knightess wanted to get warm by Midir.

[superanonymousthethird]

My friend and I were playing fuck marry kill with Soulsborne characters and she gave me about 10 combinations of different characters. I answered them one by one and in one of them I somehow ended up choosing Shira to be my wife. I jokingly remarked that maybe if I chose her, the judicator giants wouldn't try to murder me (since I will no longer be a random outsider who somehow invaded the ringed city). Then that remark somehow evolved into something more, as I started wondering about different aspects of life in the ringed city and the ending of the DLC and DS3 in general and ended up with a whole thread of headcanons about the first kiss, the marriage ceremony, the solution to the situation with the fire ending and an adoption of a pet and a kid. I still can't understand why I was so keen on continuing imagining that situation since I haven't really considered Shira to be a waifu material before.

INKTOBER 17 -  The Spears of the Church, Dark Souls 3

The Spears of the Church watch over the Princess' slumber, and when the church is compromised by a trespasser, the Judicator summons them as loyal spirits to eliminate the threat. Loyal spirits summoned as Spears of the Church are granted a blessing of protection.

Those who protected the dream of Princess Filianore were Judicator Argo with Halflight, Spear of the Church and Shira, Knight of Filianore.

The Spears of the Church is a covenant in Dark Souls III. It was introduced in The Ringed City DLC.

I played DS3. I speculated on DS3. Then The Ringed City came out. This is a rant taken from a chat with @heliicon and posted with slight modifications for @bellringerkat‘s amusement.

Ok so, first of all, lemme reiterate for anybody who hasn’t been subjected to my rants yet, the Gods and all connected directly to them are fucking liars.

The Royal Everloving Fuck is up with Midir ? Another dragon up and about that works for the Gods ? Get off my dick. What on earth was Gwyn doing during the war, pulling favoritisms left and right for anybody who was gracious enough to give their ass out ? Wouldn’t surprise me anymore considering how many half dragon children are apparently on the Gods’ bloodline. And speaking of which, who the hell is Shira ? "Daughter of the Duke", what Duke, Seath ? Tseldora from DS2 ? Another totally unrelated dude that just spawned out of nowhere ? Bull shit.

The Church of Filianore makes no sense. She would have had to be there for fucking forever, even before Gwyndolin probably, so that "youngest daughter" thing is literally meaningless. Why is she sleeping ? Why is that a problem ? Nothing changes if you wake her up ! You get transported to a totally different time and place, in which she's dead like no one ever woke her up in the first place, so what is the difference ?? Plus that is clearly an alternate dimension just like the Untended Graves, and even if it wasn't- the "real world" is ALREADY in ruin ! "Her slumber is for the sake of others", her slumber is an ass pull that stinks of callback.

How the hell are the paintings even supposed to be made without the Dark Soul, which, would you look at that, is kept locked away in a place that would be impossible to access unless Filianore was awakened, only that's a lie too cause Shira does it, and she's a fucking liar as well because she said she was a "captive" and yet she just waltzes out like it's nobody's fucking business and goes to mope in the little chapel next to Gael's murder ground, AND WHERE WERE YOU FOR THAT ONE BATTLE, BITCH ? Oh, and how did Gael even get there before us if we had to wake Filianore up for him ? He couldn’t do it himself, otherwise why help the Ashen One all the way down ?? And if he could, it just proves my point that her sleep is totally useless.

Also the more I think about the "King's Decree" and more it stinks. Is Gwyn the King ? Would make sense, and yet. Why not the God's Decree. Shira calls him God, the pygmy bitch at the start calls him God. Meanwhile an entire gathering of pygmy royalty is having a picnic in the next dimension. Even Shira’s weapon mentions a “mad king” born of the pygmies. Something's fishy and it's not Kos this time. THE FUCKING PURIFICATION MONUMENT CAN REINSTATE THE DECREE. WHAT DOES IT DO, WIPE OUT THE MEMORY OF THE ASHEN ONE CLEANING THE FLOOR WITH HALFLIGHT'S SCRAWNY ASS ?

Londor culture thrives on the Ringed City's simbolism and yet not one pilgrim made it there, they just all decided to digievolve into Screaming Holy Gatlings just before the drop. Good fucking work, everyone, Yuria would be proud. What the hell happened to the Sable Church anyway ? Wasn’t Friede’s presence kind of a big plot point ? Wasn’t there supposed to be a third sister ? We don’t know. The devs don’t know.

And we haven't even touched the subject of how it all just Looks Like Oolacile, statues of suspicious Gwyndolin-looking figures, birch trees and Humanity Juice Pool included. Or how the Judicators drop holy water grenades blessed by the Queen of Lothric, yet we still have no idea who she’s supposed to be. And don’t give me that “it’s Gwynevere !!” bullshit, because if you were Gwynevere you wouldn’t escape from a self-centered royal bastard connected to Seath who abuses his children just to come back ages later to have kids with a self-centered royal bastard connected to Seath who abuses his children. What about Rosaria, or Gertude ? Lost to time, but hey, sexy outfits.

This DLC is a mess. This lore is a mess. The Deep is coming. Get your tickets and have a good run, I'll be back in Anor Londo cutting the dick off of every Gwyn's statue with my teeth.

Canon Divergent AU:  Gael has to fight not just the Ashen One, but also Shira, Halflight, Zoey, the Moaning Knight, Witch Zullie and Lapp. Who would still have had troubles beating him hadn’t Filianore intervened from afar.

[katyspersonal]

I've realized that Shira and Zinder/Zandroe being siblings is a seamless explanation for why they are like this, especially since I already decided unseen wife of Seath was Caffrey (who was also related to Gwyn, yes it is about term for Seath used in Japanese original again). Children of a Dragon and a Goddess of Wealth who is also on sunlight side, when both Shira and Zandroe show gold/silver affiliations. In DS1 Zandroe's gold serpent ring is also found in Sen's Fortress, and his silver serpent ring is found in Tomb of the Giants where Gwyndolin's ring was hidden

The only problem here is that Shira literally looks like Just A Girl when Zandroe probably looks like Adjudicator which means that they're the "stop doing this shit" part of this meme:

DS Trivia

[aenreth]

For the pygmies, who took the dark soul, the Great Lord gifted the Ringed City, an isolated place at world's end, and his beloved youngest daughter, promising her that he would come for her when the day came.

Once, a mad king was born to the pygmy royalty and Shira, knight of Filianore, put him to rest. But Shira's cross spear, unable to kill the undying king, only pinned itself to him. Shira delivered them together to the darkroom, where she stayed and held them close.
