Knight Artorias Costume
Guide
You will need the following items for your Knight Artorias Halloween costume:
Sir Artorias the Abysswalker was one of Lord Gwyn's four knights. He only appears in the past, having already died when the chosen undead escaped from the Undead Asylum.
Knight Artorias wore distinctive armor and the wolf ring, and wielded his greatsword and greatshield. It is known that he was a friend of Alvina from the forest hunters' club. His mate was Sif, the Great Gray Wolf, who now guarded his grave and held in his possession the ring of the Artorias Alliance.
Artorias hunted the Darkwraiths and was able to traverse the Abyss using the power of his ring, which he obtained after forging a bond with the beasts there to prevent him from being swallowed by the Void, but cursed his sword in the process. In recognition of his deeds, he was bestowed with one of Anor Londo's treasures - a silver pendant that enabled him to ward off dark sorcery.

When the chosen undead encounters him, it is revealed that Artorias has already been corrupted by the Abyss, his armor rotted and emitting an aura of darkness. His crippled arm is likely the result of Artorias preventing the spread from engulfing his wolf companion through a now-missing shield. He has a greatsword, which is also worn but far from useless. Untamed, beastly, the knight who has lost his mind howls under the blue cloth of his helmet.

When Oolacile was threatened by the Abyss created by Manus, Artorias and his wolf companion Sif arrived there to rescue Oolacile and save the kidnapped Princess Dusk. However, the two were overpowered and Artorias sacrificed himself to protect Sif with his purifying Greatshield, erecting a barrier around the young wolf.
Swallowed by darkness, he was corrupted along with his already cursed sword. He was then buried by the Chosen Undead after their encounter at the Oolacile Coliseum.

Once defeated, Hawkeye mentions and talks to Gough about the player who defeated Artorias when spoken to multiple times.
His legacy as a hero endured for centuries. In the time of Lothric, there was the Undead Legion of Farron, commonly called the Abyss Watchers. They ate wolf blood, and it is said that their souls are connected and one with the soul of the "master of the wolf blood", Artorias. Wielding greatswords in his image and in savage, ferocious styles, the Legion fought a true war against the darkness of the Abyss that their master had waged in the past.
Since the souls of the Abyss Watchers effectively merged with Artorias before combining fire, this technically means Artorias is a Lord of Cinder despite being dead thousands of years before the Abyss Watchers were formed.
