FalseShepherd: The ivory King really just said "And?" When he found out who Alsanna really was. He literally said "I can Fix her" And he did. That is beyond a Chad move. Man was a True King.

soup_doctor: Haven't watched yet, answer is Solaire. His bug possession doesn't count.

TheAshHeritor: Not Pontiff Sulyvahn. I'll tell you that much.

pingpong5877: Boc the seamster was my main motivation for becoming Elden Lord. His goodness and innocence touched me. I knew then and there that I would be a lord for those abandoned by the grace of gold. Humanity is not exclusive to those who call themselves human.

von123-1: Gwyn made a pact with the demons for the distribution of humanity

The ivory king placed his throne right above the chaos and said fucking try me

mimikyootxo: I think Gilbert from Bloodborne deserves an honorable mention. We never see his face, but after being shut out by everyone else he is kind, sympathetic, and helpful to our hunter despite being sick himself. When he finally succumbs to the beast plague later in the game, it's disheartening to lose him since he was probably the closest thing to a friend the hunter had besides the Doll.

Drangleic72: It's also worth mentioning the bearer of the curse dude did a lot of good deeds and even made sure make lucitel name remembered forever even in elden ring world

punishedvenomsnake716: The Burnt Ivory King, my beloved. Dark Souls II is so GOATed, my favorite of the trilogy

heibk-2019: Nepheli Loux came to my mind.

"I witnessed a sight much the same, in my infancy.

The oppression of the weak. Murder and pillage unchecked.

A waking nightmare, made by men.

But this time, I'm a woman grown.

And though the suffering cannot be undone, I can still mete out justice.

Justice to the oppressors."

Also W for using OG Demons Souls footage, not the remakes

Gangfang: Patches. He hasn't done a single bad thing ever.

TenShiningTowers: I'd say out of Elden Ring at least Roderika and Hewg are definitely up there

Frieth: For Dark Souls 3 - I would consider Siegward himself - he does not have the failures that foster the suffering that Yhorm has. He even cleans up his old friend's failures.

For Elden Ring - I would consider St. Trina. We know the other halves of Gods and Demigods are truly different beings. St Trina seems to have been in tune with Miquella during his best moments, but diverged in thought and motive when he strays from the path.

Even so, fun video and good lists.

LosoaII: Ivory King so good he unified an entire kingom for a righteous cause. And even with a whole army of citizens trained to fight and resist the chaos, he was still determined to be the first one they fight.

Zwarlie: So happy to see the Ivory King getting the attention he deserves. DS2 was my first souls game and the Ivory King has always stuck with me for being such a selfless and heroic character in a game and series where darkness and hopelessness are so pervasive.

I think part of the reason he sticks with me and so many people is that he never hesitated to show affection to Alsanna, a fragment of Manus, one of the most destructive beings in the Dark Souls world. Even though she represented a fragment of a less destructive part of Manus, it makes me wonder if Elana and Nadalia could’ve ended up differently had they been treated with more affection. Nashandra, though, that’s another story.

Great vid as always!

goroakechi6126: I’d also like to suggest Lady Maria as someone for Bloodborne’s kindness. Unlike Iosefka or the Odeon chapel dweller, she was given martial ability and authority as a noblewoman of Cainhurst, yet continuously makes good calls with leaving the hunt after the hermit village, abandoning the healing church when the experiments become too much, and defending the child whom she scorned in the afterlife.

To me, being good isn’t about the absence of bad deeds. It’s about being able to reform and be better after them, something every other character in Bloodborne fails to do.

OldManSakaki: Nepheli Loux is another good one for Elden Ring

pockystyx4087: The Ivory King is honestly the coolest (pun slightly intended) of the royal figures in all of the Souls games. Such a good person, that he's actions changed others around him for the better, leading to Alsanna becoming nothing like her sisters, and keeping the world safe.

HerraHissi: Honorable mention: Elden Ring - Spirit Ashes. It would be a tedious task to read and measure each, but a lot of them gave themselves willingly to be used in battle. They are like martyrs of the lore. I think one of them could even be the most morally good.

kellinnovak58: Before watching this I'd like to mention siegland, siegmeyer's daughter from ds1 she's overlooked a lot

magimon91834: Best souls II strikes again

ebbiilizard8954: Sif , the best boy ever.

ThatsMrGat: bro really acts like turtle pope would not overleap every moral challenge possibly presented

Mario-SunshineGalaxy64: “kind, self sacrificing, and brave” describes Miquella but he’s most definitely grey, a lighter shade of grey but no one that reaches for greatness in the Lands Between has their hands clean.

TheAlexKoehler: The thumbnail of this one is SO sick. I’ve always loved the Ivory king.

noirangel6416: Damn straight!

Hands down Ivory King is my absolute favorite Soulsborne character.

Dangerman-zg3ui: Nepheli Loux IMV would've been my choice for Elden Ring. A morally consistent character who fights against Injustice and rejects her adopted "father" and will likely rule Stormveil and surrounding lands justly.
