I may or may not make a new PSN just to have the name fit the build when being summoned or invading or getting invaded. :3
Keep in mind that I'll likely be keeping the build at a mid-level SL for co-op and invasion purposes.
Choices:
Lauternius - My favorite NPC, would likely just be a 99 res character who invades to sit in the poison swamp and troll, tossing fire at people. Uses Undead Rapport on cavetrolls and such.
Undead Warrior/Soldier - Has a bit of flexibility in weapon choice and armor setup. Can use whichever rings work well for the situation, and is a less commonly seen setup. Would fashion face and body to look like actual enemy undeads.
Anastacia - I have never seen or heard of someone cosplaying as this firekeeper. Her robes are given as a game item, so why not? Likely I'd end up doing a force-trolling thing for invasions with her. But PvE-wise, I am open to suggestions.
Oswald of Carim - I've been considering cosplaying as this guy for a while. His 'tude is commemorable, and he has an interesting playstyle. I'd probably need to use a shield with 80-95% phys. damage reduction for him to be at all viable in PvE though(to make use of Karmic Justice). He'd also need a good deal of either faith or intelligence in order to put a high majadjust catalyst or talisman in his right hand.
Black Knight - Wide weapon choice, but will definitely be with mid-roll, likely would use wolf ring along with the clunky armor. Would basically end up being a quality build though. May throw in some faith for support spells like force/heal.
Silver Knight - Has a buffable weapon, which is why I would certainly pair it with intelligence/faith, but more likely intelligence. In order to keep it <60, I'd probably just give him 15 int and great magic weapon for the SKSS, and then keep the SKS on swap for backup. Also has a greatbow! Anor Londo time!
Smough - Self explanatory. Pretty overdone cosplay, but it'd be interesting. I'd probably fatroll through the game and just invest very little into endurance. I'd put all points into Vit and Str, prioritizing one-shots of enemies, and tanking bosses(probably O&S) with my higher vit. Would likely just go for two-handing str requirement.
Shiva's Bodyguard - I have a build in process that would probably fit this pretty well. It'd be fun to linger around the forest and trick people. Could double as the forest thief, surprise NPC-mimicking backstabs are surprisingly successful.
Maneater Mildred - Essentially, a naked playthrough with a heavy-mid weapon. May go to 27 str and 2-hand or 16 and chaos. Probably the first option. Would likely cap around 40 for Queelag co-op.
