Sealers of New Londo

So as many of y'all might already know, there were originally three sealers of new londo.

Ingward and Yulva are accounted for (Ingward stayed behind and Yulva went to blight town to cleanse the poison but failed) but what of the third sealer.

Well before I go any further I will elaborate a little on how I play through the story. I always save Lautrec and I always hunt him down using the black eye orb.

Have any of y'all ever noticed that one of his summoned phantoms, the sorcerer specifically, is wearing the crimson set. One of only three in the game world. Could it be that the third sealer of new londo abandoned his duties to join Lautrec for some unknown reason?

Im making this a poll to find out if a lot of people already knew this, or if I've made some important discovery.

When I was collecting items on my third playthrough, I did actually realize this. I found it interesting that one of those sealers had either the same objectives as Lautrec or became some sort of magic mercenary.

There isn't a name for this last sealer is there?

Feena visited Lautrec during his solitude and he forsook everything he had for her -Some people say Feena is also Gwynevere- and so I imagine she visited the sealer while he was feeling awful about flooding the city and creating all those ghosts. They therefore probably serve the same goddess and have similar goals however I have no idea what those goals are past maybe joining the princess guards covenant if Feena really is Gwynevere. Lautrec does work with a lot of people though and it's possible the sealer is just selling his magic out after losing all faith but I think he would have just hollowed if that was the case.

I have thought Fina was Gwynevere, actually. A lot of the things said about them both are very, very similar. I had thought Lautrec was back in Anor Londo because he still believed Gwynevere was there and that she loved him, personally. Also, explaining why his armour is where it is.

Yeah, I noticed Lautrec's pals before.

Though, just because he's wearing the armour, doesn't mean it's him. You find a set and wear it, after all. Or maybe you didn't wear it... I wore it for about an hour because it looks like a plague doctor. Maybe he found the armour, same as you, and decided it was an upgrade.

I'm just saying it doesn't mean he's a Sealer... maybe he found the armour the same as the chosen undead did and wore it. It might be that he did kill the other Sealer. Just because someone's wearing the armour, though, doesn't mean they are that class or profession. Its not proof that he is the third Sealer.

Lol your new to the forums so Ill let you in on the joke. For forumites stuff like this is proof enough. Just look through some of the other threads in the Archives you'll see what I mean.

The main evidence for him being the third sealer is the description of the Mask of the Sealer.

Mask of the sorcerers who flooded New Londo
to seal away the Darkwraiths, and the
Four Kings who descended into Dark.

It symbolizes their resolve to keep the seal
shut forever and their atonement for all who
were sacrificed, but two of the three forsook
New Londo upon tiring of their duty.

The companion of Lautrec has the full sealer set aside from the mask as well as the sealer's catalyst. The lack of the mask symbolises his forsaking of his resolve to guard the seal. The other sealer who forsook their duty is found dead in Blightown and then Ingward is still in New Londo, so that's all three accounted for.
The reason most people here support this theory is because there is evidence in game for it, there is no evidence on the other hand that he is NOT a sealer.

Noticed this in my first playthrough
Sadly, that sealer's name is never mentioned anywhere, so we will never know for sure

However, i think it really is a sealer, and not just someone with crimson set because he also uses the tin banishment catalyst, which is only ever seen elsewhere in the game on Yulva's body, and Ingward; besides, the official artwork of a sealer shows him/her holding such a catalyst.

He could also have removed his mask because it symbolized his duty as a sealer (the rest of the armor only symbolizing healers, as stated in the description)

Just because I am new to the forums doesn't mean I am new to the lore or haven't spent a lot of time in the game and looking through places. :) I see where you're coming from, but all I am saying is that it's not definitive proof... at least not for me. It COULD be him, but also it might not be. We did find a set of the armour and people mix and match armour sets often. When the Sealer's outfit is found, the mask is there with it. There's no saying she didn't wear it and there's no proof saying she did. I'm not saying you're all the most wrong people who've ever been wrong in the most wrong world of incorrectness... It's just not enough proof for me.

its enough proof for most forum members is all i said. Calm down

I thought it was pretty well known and accepted that Lautrec's phantom was the 3rd sealer

It is indeed.

Not by everyone
