Irithyll Dungeon
Irithyll Dungeon is a sprawling, subterranean prison complex accessible after navigating the flooded manor section of Irithyll of the Boreal Valley. Players must navigate cramped cell blocks and toxic lower depths while dealing with enemies that actively reduce maximum health. The dungeon serves as the primary route to the Profaned Capital, while also containing pathways and keys to rescue trapped NPCs.

Shops and people
- Karla: Rescued from a cell on the lowest level using the Jailer's Key Ring; relocates to Firelink Shrine to teach dark sorceries and pyromancies.

- Keep Undead Hunter Charms handy to put the numerous Mimics to sleep and loot them without fighting.
