Description

Gatekeeper Gostoc is an NPC in Elden Ring. Gatekeeper Gostoc is an old tall fellow that may seem a bit suspicious, but he seems to want to help. It is your choice to trust him or not. If you die within Stormveil CastleDungeon, he will steal 30% of any runes dropped when dying. However, the area outside of the castle where the Warhawks are at is safe from rune-theft if you die there. He also stops stealing your runes once he opens his shop.

Dialogue

Conversation 1

Ah, you, is it?
Haven't seen your mug in quite some time.
As you can see, I'm the new Lady's attendant.
Freedom? Wasn't worth squat.
B-besides, I like it 'round 'ere...
Lady Nepheli's still fair of heart and countenance...

Conversation 2

Still, I have the Lady's trust.
...So I can loot all the corpses I like.
I'll let you take a look at the goods, if you fancy.

Conversation 3

Ah, back again, are we? Curious one, you are.
Well then, what are you after?

Conversation 4

Oh...hello there.
This weasel was... Godrick was always looking down on me.
He got what he bloody deserved, thanks to you.
I tell you though, what goes around comes around.
He had an ugly heart, an uglier countenance, and met the ugliest of ends, eh.
He he he he he...

Conversation 5

Now, I suppose I'm free.
I can do whatever takes my fancy...
Can't I, mate?

Conversation 6

The gates are open. Do as you like.
It's only your neck on the line, after all.

Conversation 7

You're Tarnished, aren't you?
I would advise against taking the main gate into the castle.
It's tightly guarded by hardened old hands.
Try the opening right here.
The guards don't know about it.
You'll breach the castle undetected.

Conversation 8

Use that opening to breach the castle.
The guards haven't a clue about it.
You'll slip right inside undetected.

Conversation 9

...You're just the kind of Tarnished that I like.
I pray for your success.

Conversation 10

Yes, that's the spirit.
...You're just the kind of Tarnished that I like.
I pray for your success.

Conversation 11

Fair enough, you certainly don't have to trust me.
Well, If you must go through the gates, I'll signal them to open.
But of course, I'd advise against it.

Conversation 12

Of course. I understand.
When you approach the gates, I'll signal them to open.
It's only your neck on the line, after all.

Conversation 13

Oh, hello... Glad to see you safe.
I've come into some fine goods.
Only, it turns out I can't use a one of them.
Perhaps you'd like to take them off my hands?

Conversation 14

Oh, hello, anything you'd care to purchase?

Conversation 15

Fare thee well.
I pray for your success.

Conversation 16

Oh, oh, you...
Oh, great, I'm glad you're here.
Just a small reward, I was saving it for you.
Please, it's all yours.

Conversation 17

Good, now let's be on our way, shall we?
Wouldn't want the guards to spot you.

Conversation 18

Hop along, will you?
What'll happen if the guards catch you strutting about?

Conversation 19

Oh, hello. No, don't you mind me for a minute.
It's my job to keep the grounds clean.

Conversation 20

Oh, you...
For god's sake, don't scare me like that!
...
What, oh, just clearing out some corpses.
Can't just leave them about, you know, they'll start to pong, eh.

Conversation 21

Oh, don't worry, I've got big plans for what's left of you...

Conversation 22

Hah! Do you feel it?
Do you feel my bloody wrath?

Conversation 23

Ouch!

Conversation 24

Oi, what're you doing?
Stop that!

Conversation 25

Blast, what's it to you!
Step back, you wretched Tarnished!

Conversation 26

Damn it all. Why is it always me...
What did I do to deserve...

Conversation 27

But...I'm free...
I can do...what I like...

Conversation 28

You there.
Come over here, would you?

Conversation 29

The gates! Open the gates!

Conversation 30

Rubbish...
Another one...another one all skin and bones.
...Worse than a petty squire...
...Ahh, not a muscle on this one either...

Conversation 31

What a pathetic excuse for a Lord you were. Craven to the bone.
Pushing me about like that. And after all that grafting? Where did that get you?
Look down, on me, would you?
Godrick? You filthy slug.
Feel it! Feel it! Feel my bloody wrath!
