Can I request general hc artorias from dark soul?

Yandere! Knight Artorias the Abysswalker Concept

Pairing: Romantic/Platonic

Possible Trigger Warnings: Gender-Neutral Darling, Obsession, Overprotective behavior, Corruption, Death, This one is sad, Artorias going insane, Barely yandere but hey it's sad, Angst, His backstory makes me cry, Dubious companionship.

Artorias is a hard one to write for due to the nature and fate of his character.

He was one of Gwyn's four main knights, one accompanied by a wolf companion (Sif).

His mission was to fight against The Abyss, the darkness of humanity.

However, he failed such a task, despite what his legend says.

He was meant to prevent the spread of The Abyss… but that is impossible.

He is a knight devoted to a futile task.

There isn't much about Artorias personality-wise.

However, pulling from cut voice lines and lore videos, this is what I got.

Due to Artorias being a knight of Gwyn, I imagine he'd be stoic and valiant.

He'd be like your traditional knight, one ready to die for his beliefs and king.

He'd die for what he cares about.

You could also assume he takes on a protector role due to this, especially when he is committing to a futile/impossible task.

I'd also assume Artorias would be worried about his obsession being corrupted like him, increasing his possible protective behavior.

I HC that Artorias knows he's corrupted and tries to prevent the same for you.

His mind is torn… but he can't let it win.

He's meant to be a knight who saves the princess from Manus and The Abyss.

Yet… that isn't his fate.

He may try to fight it… but soon he'll be a monster too.

Even then he'd probably still try to defend his obsession, perhaps even having Sif help.

Even in his corrupted state he'd still look after you.

Imagine if the start of his corruption is what made him yandere?

It infects his mind and all he can do is worry about you.

Oh… he just has to keep you safe!

But wait… he can't have anyone else near you.

What if you're corrupted? What if someone takes you?

What if he fails you?

Even when he breaks his arm he'd still fight with such an uncharacteristic amount of ferocity.

You would be able to tell The Abyss has made the once loyal knight feral.

Even towards you he isn't himself… yet he often hesitates.

No, he still can't hurt you.

The darkness may whisper into his head to make him go insane.

The Abyss may slowly eat away at him.

But he cares for you too much to hurt you.

Artorias keeps telling himself he needs to get you out of here, he needs to prevent your corruption.

However, he also considers the idea of locking you away with him.

You could be in so much more danger if he abandons you… no… if you abandon him.

In that case… he should keep you with him.

The Abyss may alter him, but he needs you.

You'll be lost without him, won't you?

So, against his better judgment, he reaches for you.

With The Abyss clawing at him… he takes you in.

You may struggle… but he tells you he's protecting you.

The Abyss corrupts you both.

You are unable to fight as Artorias holds you close.

Sif will live on and remember both of you… but you two will no doubt die together.

His legend says nothing of you… but you were with him.

Artorias cherishes you more than anything.

Even willing to have you corrupted just to be your protector until the end.

Is this what he truly wanted, or did The Abyss corrupt his mind.

No one will know except for him
