10 Video Game Characters You Had ONE CHANCE To Get
7. Solaire - Dark Souls
No matter how bleak and brutally difficult Dark Souls can get, players don't need to face the decaying world of Lordran and its nightmarish collection of enemies alone.
In addition to summoning other players to assist during boss fights or get through tough areas, players can likewise get help from NPC characters during specific fights. One of these characters is the glorious Solaire of Astora.
First encountered admiring the sunlight in the Undead Burg, Solaire becomes one of the few friendly faces in the game who'll help with some of the trickier boss fights. But if players progress too far in their adventure without completing certain steps in his questline, he’ll be gone for good and consequently won't be able to join in the final boss fight.
Before chatting to a now distraught Solaire in the Demon Ruins, players must have first joined the Chaos Servant Covenant and donate 30 Humanity. This opens a shortcut in the Demon Ruins that contains Sunlight Maggots.
Players must then kill the one bug with glowing eyes before they reach Lost Izalith otherwise Solaire will become corrupted by the bug and turn hostile.
With Solaire saved, he can now accompany players in the final fight where he'll fulfill his own quest.
