Emerald Herald (wa)s dead. Pigs are dead. I have no levels. I am required to complete this run due to a charity commitment.
Further Context: During this year's charity streams, I participated in a DS2 any% speedrun where viewers could manipulate the game and objectives. Right at the start, I was forced to despawn every level of pig in Majula with no weapons. I was also forced to kill Emerald Herald before I could level. Then a series of other objectives were added:
- I must buy the largest ladder from Gilligan (DONE)
- I must kill one boss from DLC 1
- I must kill Aava and Ivory King
- I must still do this as fast as I can, which means I can't just leave the game on and wait for Emerald Herald to respawn.
I promised to complete this run if we reached $20k donations before the stream ended, and we met that goal!

❔❔❔~~~~~Frequently Asked Questions~~~~~❔❔❔
I encourage you to backseat if you know what you're talking about.
Q: Where's the vod of the charity?
A: Not up yet, but it will eventually be up on TheBacklogs channel -- he's having some issues uploading it right now but he is working on it. I'll upload a higher resolution version of my POV once I get to it.
❔❔❔~~~~~General FAQ~~~~~❔❔❔
Q: Are you still making videos???
A: YES. Unfortunately, YouTube is not my full-time occupation (I simply don't make enough from it), so I try my best to work when I have time. Last year, I have been busied by making the Fume Knight mod, moving states, and other things. I am currently working on a secret DS1 run, then will begin chipping away at the All Gael Run while releasing some shorter videos, hopefully. I unfortunately cannot give a timeline for completion.
Q: Why do you do this?
A: See above
Q: No, really?
A: I like problem solving and some of the runs are very enjoyable. Also clout.
Q: Will this become a video?
A: Not this one lol
Q: Will you do an all insert boss here run on Dark Souls 1, 2, or 3?
A: All Fume Knight will be my final All X Run unless there is substantial interest. I have no plans for Sekiro or Elden Ring, and Bloodborne has too many issues with modding, though when possible, I WILL do All Orphan of Kos.
Q: Do you stream runs that are not challenge runs?
A: Sometimes, usually on Saturdays
