"Mature Content Warning!" |
| “ | Have you heard of Seath the Scaleless? In legend, he turned against the ancient dragons. He became Lord Gwyn's confidant, was granted dukedom, and was allowed to pursue his research. At the Regal Archives, he immersed himself in research on scales of immortality, the one thing that he did not have. But his very research drove him mad... The Archives became a dungeon, a place for sinister experiments. Now, nobody dares even approach the duke's forbidden Archives. It looms over this land, high atop the mountain. But I should warn against even an approach... | „ |

Seath the Scaleless is the secondary antagonist of the 2011 roleplaying game Dark Souls.
History[]
Seath was an Everlasting Dragon who was born without scales due to a disease. Envious for the other dragons with scales that granted them immortality, Seath sided with Lord Gwyn upon discovering the Lords had powers that could scatter the dragons' scales and make them mortal. He took sadistic pleasure in killing off his own kind. Awarded a Bequeathed Lord Soul Shard and granted dukedom by Gwyn, Seath plunged into research for immortality by using a Primordial Crystal that he stole from the dragons to heal his every wound. To continue his research, he had his minions, the Channelers, kidnap countless innocent people to conduct torturous experiments on them using crystals, mutating numerous people into undead crystal monsters. Even becoming undead himself from the curse, Seath continued his cruel experiments all in pursuit of his immortality.
What Makes Him Pure Evil[]
- Committed genocide against his own species simply out of envy.
- Mutated countless innocent people into crystal monsters against their will.
- Turned multiple maidens into the Pisacas to guard his prison.
- Is implied to be the father of Priscilla, which would mean that he raped at least one woman (possibly Gwynevere).
- He was among the four Great Old Ones, reincarnated throughout the years.
- While the others are debatably even sentient and just a corrupting force, Shalquoir and Tark reveal that Seath has not only retained his personality but is also pursuing his old goals.
- He created the human-scorpion hybrids, Tark and Najka. The treatment was so destructive it eventually turned Najka insane and homicidal, forcing her lover, Tark, to find a way to kill her.
- He's implied to have mutated a clan into human-lion hybrids.
- He possessed the pet spider of Duke Tseldora, Freja, mutating it into a two headed monster, before unleashing hordes of parasitic spiders across the nation.
- Those attacked by them were turned into lumbering creatures, spiders glued to their back, with the symptoms of a hollow bit still sentient.
- Shalquoir and Tark reveal that even after Freja's defeat, he will continue to be reborn and continue his crimes.
- He indirectly caused the downfall of Lothric by corrupting King Oceiros with his cursed notes.
