indictment | Dark Souls Wiki

Indictment
Slip sold by bishop of Velka, Goddess of Sin. If you are killed by an invader, use this to report the crime of that trespasser. The indicted player will be added to a list of unfortunate souls who will one day face the wrath of the Blades of the Darkmoon

Indictment is a Multiplayer Item in Dark Souls.

Indictment Usage

• Online play item.
• When slain by an invading player, this item can be used to add that player's name to the Book of the Guilty. (Being indicted by another player online will give you +1 sin)
  • Being indicted gives you +1 sin, and will leave you open to invasions from the Blade of the Dark Moon faction.
  • If slain by a player in the Blade of the Dark Moon faction, you will get -1 sin, and be notified that the invading player cannot be indicted.
• Red phantoms summoned from their Red Sign Soapstone can not be indicted after killing the host.
• Forest Hunter and Path of the Dragon members can also be indicted while invading with their covenant item. They will not be added to the Book of the Guilty scoreboard, but will still be open to Darkmoon invasions.
• This item is not consumed upon use, so it only needs to be bought once.

Indictment Location

• This item can be bought from Oswald of Carim.

Notes

• The "Indict ...?" prompt goes away if the indictment is discarded.
• A host can indict an invader even if killed by something else while the invader is present.
