“	Lord Gwyn trembled at the Dark. Clinging to his Age of Fire, and in dire fear of humans, and the Dark Lord who would one day be born amongst them, Lord Gwyn resisted the course of nature. By sacrificing himself to link the Fire, and commanding his children to shepherd the humans, Gwyn has blurred your past, to prevent the birth of the Dark Lord.	„

Weaknesses: Insane and has lost a significant portion of his power, although in his prime, this is a non issue. Takes additional damage from Dark based attacks.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

• Dashing Thrust: Used by Gwyn while he's dashing. Although it is one of his linear attacks, it is possible he may switch to a slashing combo midway. It is also one of his best attacks in terms of tracking the player.

• Quad-Slash Combo: Gwyn performs this attack in quick succession and solid tracking. It begins with an angled slash, then a horizontal one, another angled and finally a horizontal slash once more. The angled attacks can be sidestepped if the player moves early enough.

• Kick: Rarely used, however, it causes a large drain of stamina if it connects while blocking.

• Slash and Thrust: Occasionally Gwyn will interrupt his normal slash combo with a quick thrust afterward. If it hits, the player will be stunned, leaving them open for further combos.

• Slashing Upper Combo: Starts with a powerful horizontal slash, which takes a large portion of stamina, followed by two more hits. The first two slashes can be difficult to evade.

• Charging Slash: A powerful slash used by Gwyn to break the player's guard.

• Instant Dash/Double Slash: A very fast attack, which comes out of Gwyn's instant dash when he glides towards the player before slashing twice.

• Explosive Hand: An unblockable grab attack that deals massive fire damage. It has a high horizontal hitbox, so it is possible to roll under it to avoid it. After knocking the player away, Gwyn will follow up with a jumping slash or dashing slash. It also leaves Gwyn open to attacks for a short time.
