Description
Straid was invited to the old kingdom of Olaphis for his wisdom, but its depth was such that people soon feared him, and in the end Straid was led into a dreadful trap.1
Straid spent several lifetimes as stone. During this hiatus, kingdoms rose and fell, until the land called Drangleic came to be.2
A masked figure, covered head to toe in black robes.
Location
The Lost Bastille
Located in the top of the tower closest to the entrance point to the Sinner's Rise, this NPC is initially found guarded by five Undead Citizens, and is petrified.
In order to free him from his stony prison, a Fragrant Branch of Yore is required. Once freed, he is available to sell various sorceries, miracles, pyromancies, hexes, and the bonfire behind him becomes accessible.
