Astora's Straight Sword (Reinforced): A holy broadsword he found while traveling in the Valley of the Drakes.
Winged Spear (Reinforced): The Undead's primary weapon. Can be used in conjunction with his shield.
Crest Shield (Reinforced): A shield lifted off of Oscar the Fateless' body. Resists both normal and magical attacks. Reduces magic damage by 80% and fire by 55%. With his natural magic resistance, it nullifies 95% of damage from magical attacks.
Talisman: Enables the Undead to perform Miracle Spells.
Sorcerer's Catalyst: A wand that enables sorcery.
Magical Abilities:Wrath of the Gods: A miracle that knocks back, stuns, and physically harms all those within a few meters of the Undead. Quite powerful, but limited in range.
Vow of Silence: Prevents the ability to cast magic in an area, including the Undead Knight's Miracles.
Great Heal: A powerful healing spell. Can be used on himself or onto others.
Sunlight Spear: A magical javelin made up of powerful sunlight and lightning spells. It is the Undead's solution o ranged combat, but has only a limit amount of uses without rest.
Homing Soul Mass: One of the Chosen Undead's few Sorceries. This spell produces five seeking soul-mass orbs, which explode upon impact.
Cast Light: Another sorcery. The Chosen Undead spawns an orb of magical light.
*Note: The Undead prefers physical combat over Miracles and Sorcery, using magic to only augment his abilities or to turn a losing fight into a winning one. He can continually swing or stab, but can only do a limited amount of magecraft without resting*
Other:Mark of the Undead: A black circle located on the upper right chest the Undead Knight tries to cover up in the presence of others. With this, he can never die. Being undead, he neither has to eat nor sleep, but will eventually go hollow and insane.
Humanity: The Undead Knight keeps around twenty of these black sprites in a pouch. These are recovered from the bodies of his fellow man (Though he adamantly refuses to kill others for them). He consumes one of them every time he "dies" to become fully human again.
Souls: Over the course of his journey, the Knight collected many souls. The only ones he has now reside in another pouch. However, not all souls are equal:
1 Soul of a Brave Warrior: 5000 normal souls
3 Souls of a Proud Knight: 2000 normal souls each
14 Souls of a Nameless Soldier: 800 normal souls each
46 Souls of a Lost Undead: 200 normal souls each
15,475 Normal Souls
Along with these are souls who are worth far more; The Chosen Undead also has souls of Gwyn, Gwyndolin, Ornstein, Smough, Sif, Quelaag, and Manus.
Rusted Iron Ring: This ring allows him to travel through water unimpeded. Basically, it enables him to walk in water, even if it is chest high, as if it is dry land.
Old Witch's Ring: Does not provide any benefit aside from talking to the Fair Lady. Wears it out of guilt rather than for usefulness.
Skilled Archer: The Chosen Undead had become accustomed to archery, with both bows and crossbows. However, he had neither of those weapons when he came to Nexus City.
Origin: The Undead cannot remember the time before he was sent to the Undead Asylum. All he knew was that he was a knight of some sort, apparently one who was with a Covenant due to his knowledge of Miracles. Sometime after his imprisonment, a fellow knight named Oscar started freeing many the undead, trying to figure out who was destined to be the Chosen Undead. Oscar was unfortunately killed by the jail keeper, but the Undead Knight escaped the Asylum and begun the journey to Lordran.
It was in that city that he faced many trials, such as slaying dragons, demons, even the guardians and Gods themselves. He became known as the Chosen Undead, one who was to bring about change. But the man was sliding down to the pit of despair. It seems that all he brought was further suffering to those around him: Some friends were becoming Hollows, others he just wasn't able to save from gruesome fates. His kindness was returned with treachery, his violence was met with guilt. It was eroding the Knight, rotting him from the inside out.
It was only after he killed Gwyn, Lord of Sunlight, that he nearly became Hallowed himself. He was presented a choice: To give his body to the first flame and hold back the inevitable night just a little longer, or to allow darkness to reign. Both choices were poor. The former only led to suffering for himself, only for it to be in vain in the end. The other...well, he had seen the Abyss, and what it does; to become the new Dark Lord would be to cause The End.
So, he just sat down, refusing to do either. Giving in to his own pity, the Undead almost became just another mindless husk. It was only for the fact that a portal opened up beneath him, sending him to a city that he neither knows or understands...
