Gwynevere is a character in Dark Souls. She is the Princess of Sunlight and daughter of Lord Gwyn. She gives the Lordvessel to the player and allows them to join the Princess' Guard Covenant. The Gwynevere you see in game is an illusion created by Gwyndolin in order to manipulate the player.
Encounters
Gwynevere is located in Anor Londo, guarded by Ornstein and Smough.
Drops
Gwynevere only drops the Lordvessel if it was not already given to the player.
Dark Anor Londo
If the player attacks Gwynevere, Anor Londo will darken as the illusion created by her younger brother fades. All the enemies, except the painting guardians and the Silver Knights, as well as any illusions will disappear. However, The NPCs (the Fire Keeper and the Giant Blacksmith) will remain there.
Although Gwynevere herself exists, she left Anor Londo long before the Chosen Undead came to Lordran along with other deities.
Effect of Dark Anor Londo
- After Anor Londo darkens, you will be constantly invaded by members of the Darkmoon Covenant, as long as you're in human form and online. Like every areas, killing available bosses (Gwyndolin) will stop invasions.
- Also the Firekeeper of the first bonfire in Anor Londo becomes hostile, and will move near to the rotating tower as well as two knights, a Balder Knight among with a Berenike Knight, will appear in the great corridor where the two giants were, right before Ornstein and Smough fogwall.
- Finally, if the player dies in Dark Anor Londo, they will always respawn at the first bonfire, even if it's unlit. Using a homeward bone will not warp to another bonfire. This is why the player should not kill the firekeeper as long as Gwyndolin is alive, because he will be able to warp from this bonfire.
- Killing Gwynevere will be considered as a permanent sin in PvE.
Notes
- The Balder and Berenike Knights used to respawn and could be farmed for souls. After patch 1.06 they will no longer respawn after being killed.
- It is possible to steal at least 3 humanity from these using Dark Hand.

I wish she was real because she makes me feel so happy and I love how she smiles and she makes me feel so warm and I love her so much she’s so nice to me I want to make her happy

I know a lot of people seem to only see her for her breast size, but I honestly kind of found her presence soothing.
It was nice resting at the bonfire near her since it felt like the only place where there was a sort of feeling of warmth.
It was a bit disappointing finding out the reality of it. But such is the way of the series I suppose...

This page for her sucks lol, literally barely anything about gwynevere herself and just dark Anor londo

I believe that Gwyndolin was incestuous and had the hots for his sister Gwynevere. After all why would he make an illusion of her with such large breasts? Obviously she had left Anor Londo or was dead, and Gwyndolin missed their hanky panky times so made an illusion and augmented her.

(first playthrough blind)
I "killed" her because I sided with a weird serpent at the abyss and was NOT expecting the dark anor Londo, first time in years I've felt fear like that lmao

Playing through this game blind the first time, I honestly found the moment you meet Gwynevere rather...incredible.
Opening the door to Blighttown was the most dreadful moment to me, where things took a steep turn to dread.
Opening the door to Gwynevere's room was the opposite, like a weight lifted. Really plays up the gravity of the achievement with the music and lighting, and you're instantly rewarded with bonfire warping.
All the NSFW comments people make aside, I feel her idyllic and radiant appearance serves to bolster the divine aura she has and really sell the moment even more. Like all of this hypes you up to keep going, because you just got an awesome new ability after a brutal boss fight with a goddess directing you on your next step in the journey.
And all that makes it that much more jarring she's just an illusion, designed to give you that feeling as a way to keep you on a path chosen for you by others.

*During a Design Works interview about Dark Souls 1*
Hatsuyama: Can I ask about Gwynevere, because compared to the other female charters she's very different, almost glamorous.
Miyazaki: You don't like the design?
Hatsuyama: No, I just wanted to know what the original idea behind her was.
Otsuka: As a fan of the character, I'd be interested to hear that too.
Miyazaki: ... Talking of glamour, her breasts have nothing to do with me, they happened without my knowledge. It's all the artist's fault. I think I mentioned it earlier but I always seek a certain refinement in all my designs.
Waragai: Really?
Miyazaki: Yes, but the artist had such a happy look on his face, I didn't have the heart to stop him.

The women in Dark Souls 1 are pretty sexy, with Gwynevere being the top along with Priscilla and Quelaag witches.

It doesn't make you any less or any more for liking feet, but some of y'all need to get your **** together.

Why is it a permanent sin to kill them when it’s just an illusion?

We've never seen her (or Flann) - maybe she was never real in the first place and just a cover for Gwyndolin the whole time?

Not only are you simping for a fictional character, you're simping for the ILLUSION of a fictional character.

I'm pretty sure i'm reading conflicting information regarding the Darkmoon covenant invasions in Dark Anor Londo. On the Blade of the Darkmoon page, it says that even after killing Gwyndolin and Gwynevere, you can still be invaded. While this page explicitely says "Like every areas, killing available bosses (Gwyndolin) will stop invasions."
So which one is it then ? Does someone know ? Am i missing something ?

seeing the "Amazing chest ahead" soapstone before seeing Gwynevere is still my favorite Dark Souls moment

No offense to anyone here but I personally like the music in the room more than I like the actual character. She just feels soulless and I personally actively dislike oversized boobs so…. music kicks ass.

Break the illusion guys. Dark Anor Londo is beautiful and eerie, it captures the lonely feel of the game itself. Let the world be honest and deceive you no longer.

I wasn’t surprised to learn that Miyazaki wasn’t a fan of her design when it was shown to him by the creator. She’s much different from the other female characters visually and probably wouldn’t even fit in if it wasn’t for the goddess status. As a huge fan favourite character I’m sure Miyazaki was more than happy with the design post release!
