That is a really bad comparison, cuz the Candlemaiden had some actual personality. "Oh, you tried to kill me? Well, i appreciate the sentiment, but it's futile. Sorry."

Also "Touch the demon inside me"

they fill the same role though. the candlemaiden, the emerald lady from DS2, the plain doll in bloodborne, you could kind of argue the mute firemaiden in DS1 all fit the same Souls Character Archetype

Why, though? Out of all of the choices, Plain Doll is such a bland NPC in a game with no shortage of bizarre and interesting characters. I mean, if you're going to latch onto a video game person like a weirdo, you might as well make it a cool one.

There was a tumblr that was entirely really bizarre Frozen fanart. It was all 3D and I think it used the original art assets. Does anyone have a link to it?

Actually, Dark Souls originally had the big furry dragon lady as your female level up buddy, though she still fits the description of quiet, unassuming woman. They all do have different but basic personalities and tend to have some sort of significant role in the grand scheme of things but that describes every Souls NPC who isn't god drat Patches.

The Doll does purposefully play on the waifu idea though considering she's a false mockery of a smoking hot woman that Gehrman couldn't get into the pants of. Also is powered by otherworldly nonsense and generally not what you want to be sticking your dick in.

Here be spoilers for Bloodborne and its DLC.

This isn't fanart really, but I figured this thread might know more about it more than other threads; what book is this scan from? I'd love to buy a book about the breakdown of how character designs in animation work like this, it's from Preston Blair, but I'm not quite sure which book it's from.

If you manage to find the Doll outside of the Hunter's Dream, she at first appears to be entirely lifeless. Until you take a good, long, careful look, and realize that's not quite the case. (Out of all the players who manage to find that secret without a guide, very few will do this, since the area is already extremely unsettling, and chances are there will be about twenty bloodstains in that exact spot from other players suiciding just to troll you.)

Advanced Animation by, as you said, Preston Blair. It's the first edition of the book where copyrighted characters were used. The second edition is not as good.

Can you elaborate on this or link to a video? I didn't know that existed outside of the dream aside from the Hidden Workshop, or is there somewhere else?

The waifu the internet liked from DS1 was Quelaag's sister, the half-spider lady who's ill and therefore immobile.

drat, first edition is from 1947, which while not unexpected, means it's nearly impossible to come by. I'd love to have a physical copy but it seems like it's almost nonexistent anymore. Is there a digital or scanned version available anywhere of the original? Not sure on the legality of that since it's over half a century out of print.

She's only at the Hidden Workshop. It's just that if you look very closely, one of her fingers continues to steadily move. Whether that means that Gehrman managed to imbue that doll with life before it was damaged, he only partially succeeded, or something else is up in the air.
