Soul of Darkeater Midir.
One of the twisted souls, steeped in strength.

      the two white dots in the soul look more like a the icon for great soul dregs implying midir was corrupted by the deep and not just the abyss, makes sense why he's not called deepeater instead because that would've been memed the **** out of

        Huh, his soul looks more like a soul dreg than a humanity to me... They seem similar, but that would imply a connection to the Deep, not the Abyss.

        Although, we DO fight him in a *deep* cavern flooded with water—in fact, it's the same, corpse-laden water we find in Aldrich's chamber. You can also see from the stone bridge that Midir falls through the surface of the black swamp, meaning this cavern is somewhere below the water...

        Maybe the Abyss represents a single human will that takes command of all others, whereas the Deep represents an amalgam of human souls lacking a dedicated goal? That would make sense then for his soul to resemble a spell associated with the Deep instead. It even looks like it's sinking downward.

            Ok Im confused. I thought archdragon are soulless? Am I missing something? We know the Ancient Dragon in DS2 is a fake because she dropped a soul of giant upon death. So why would Midir drops his soul if he’s a true archdragon?

              Hmm....so was he eating humans who have the dark soul within them hence the phrase "let the feast begin"? Kinda explains all the body's in his arena and why his soul has humanity in it.

                Lel, from software is trying it best to confirm what is was plain and clean from the first game - true dragons had a dark souls. Thats why gods hunt them down and then make this elaborate lie. But i bet some of vadyavidia fans would still to thick to get it even after whole DS3 game and then this boss, which clearly has a dark soul, but what even more important dark souls is not get him mad of "corrupt" as it goes with golden-souls creatures which has possessed "tain" by dark souls. Artorias get mad just by waling in abbys, filthy xennos as he is.

                • So what's the whole deal with his soul having the look of a Humans (there's even the humanity eyes). Not to mention that it also looks like Manus's soul. So does this mean Midir was also corrupted (he doesn't act it). Just a little confused, if someone could explain a little that would be much appreciated.

                    Killed him with a crit and he fell off the bridge dying, no souls, no items, nothing. Dragon is gone now and i am sad.

                        I honestly believe that Midir is a decendant of Seath. They both don't have eyes, that's just something I noticed right away. Also his soul says that he was raised by the gods. The gods hated all of the dragons, except Seath. So why would they put in the time to raise a dragon unless it was somehow related to the god's only dragon ally.

                          Anyone want to trade boss weapons? Will trade anything for katana I accidentally used his soul to get the spell :/

                            Having defeated him I went to get the moonlight, only to find I never got his soul? Anyone else have this problem? I have soooo many boss souls because I never use them for their cost, so I seriously doubt that I used it.

                              i think there is a small issue with size, when you fight him in the bridge he looks very big but once in the pit the model seem slightly smaller can anyone confirm this?

                                Not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, but Midir is considered an abyss creature: Wolf Knight Sword bonus damage for the win

                                  So, Shira tells us to kill Midir because she thinks Midir is crazy now, but probably it is the opposite, Midir might be the last one stands against the dark souls, against humanity.

                                    From the description, it seems he is sane, despite of the fact that he attacks us, afterall, it is his duty to attack us, the offspring of the abyss, we are from dark and are the ones that he has to fight.

                                    • Midir got corrupted fighting with the Abyss that's why you see dark crystals/particles appear in his body and somehow acquired dark powers (Dark Laser Beam/ Dark Fire Breath). Hmm.. if he is a descendant of the Archdragons... I wonder how huge the the Everlasting dragons was if Midir is already that big.

                                        It's a weird looking soul too, it's all black and wispy, it's got two little dots in the middle... OH MY GOD THE SOULS LOOKING AT ME

                                        • After Dark Souls 1 established "dragons have no souls" only to be retconned by Dark Souls 2 with bosses like Sinh and Guardian Dragon dropping souls that could be made into weapons, now we come to... a Miyazaki dragon creation who has a soul that can made into weapons (well, a weapon or a spell). I wonder what his personal interpretation for the discrepancy caused by the second game is that he decided to do this?

                                            So, Midir was pretty much the dragon equivalent of Artorias. Both tasked with fighting the abyss until the end, kinda sad really...
