Dialogue
Conversation 1
Oh my stars I'm so happy to see you!
I am Alexander, also known as the Iron Fist. And as you can see, I'm stuck here.
Please, can you help me out of this?
Conversation 2
Ah, what's that look, good sir?
Are you willing to help me out after all?
Conversation 3
I see. More's the pity.
No no. I apologise. Don't you worry about a thing.
Despite my appearance, I am but a chip off a greater jar. I'll pop out eventually, just you wait.
Conversation 4
My thanks! A thousand thanks!
Just give me a good smack from the rear, with something nice and big.
And I'll pop clean out. I'm sure!
Don't dally. No no, there's no need to fret, I'm very well trained.
Give it your all, I say!
Conversation 5
Come on, give me a good smack from behind with something nice and big.
I'll pop clean out. I'm sure, of it!
Conversation 6
Don't stop now, friend.
Just keeping clobbering away at the old behind!
Put those doubts to rest, I'll be just fine. I'm very well trained.
Give it your all, I say!
Conversation 7
Ahh! Well played, good sir. Well played!
Though that mighty wallop of yours almost spelt the end of me!
Ha ha ha ha!
Well, I'm out now, and that's what counts.
I thank you, and as a token of my appreciation, I'd like you to have this.
Conversation 8
Once again, the pleasure is mine. I am the warrior jar known as Alexander. Iron Fist Alexander, in fact.
I journey to the east, where I intend to further my education in the ways of war.
Beyond these lands lie the scarlet rot-blighted CaelidRegion Wilds.
And upon their southern edge is Redmane CastleDungeon, in which a festival of combat is being held.
I'd heard whispers of such festivities before...
Doesn't the notion set your breast aflutter!
Ha ha ha ha!
Conversation 9
I'm heading eastward.
To Redmane CastleDungeon on the southern edge of the scarlet rot-blighted CaelidRegion Wilds.
I've heard there's to be a festival held there.
Conversation 10
I was created to be a warrior vessel.
Many great warriors reside within me, ever dreaming of becoming a great champion.
It's my destiny. And the reason for which I quest.
It is my ordeal, you could say. To test myself, to better myself, to fell ever greater foes.
And then, one day, we'll be a single great champion. The greatest of them all!
What do you think, eh? How do you rate my chances?
Heh heh...
Conversation 11
Oh, I hadn't expected to see your face again.
Are you heading to the festival of combat, too?
Oh, no need to be coy with me.
Judging by the fine wallop you gave the old backside earlier, I would venture you're something of a warrior yourself.
The mere thought of such a festival gets the blood pumping, eh!
Now, now, according to my calculations, passing through this road should lead us to the CaelidRegion Wilds.
But however you slice it, it seems we've reached a dead end.
I'm sorry to have raised your hopes.
It seems my calculations must have been off...
Conversation 12
Ah, if it isn't a Tarnished warrior.
Are you travelling my way?
I'm heading to the festival at Redmane CastleDungeon, on the southern edge of the scarlet rot-blighted CaelidRegion Wilds.
Oh, no need to be coy with me.
I can tell from your bearing you're skilled in the arts of combat.
Ah, yes, the mere thought of such a festival gets the blood pumping, eh!
I am the warrior jar, Iron Fist Alexander.
And according to my calculations, passing through this road should lead us to the CaelidRegion Wilds.
But however you slice it, it seems we've reached a dead end.
Conversation 13
It's time I set off.
To the festival at Redmane CastleDungeon on the southern edge of the scarlet rot-blighted CaelidRegion Wilds.
Doesn't the thought just set your heart aflutter!
Conversation 14
...!
The esteemed warrior. Where did you spring from?
This was supposed to be a dead end, I'm sure of it.
What's going on here? A door, from thin air!
Well, stranger things happen at sea, or so I'm told, but onward! To the CaelidRegion Wilds.
Gosh, that dead-end had me rather stumped!
Heh heh...
Conversation 15
...!
Good sir, where did you spring from?
This was supposed to be a dead end, I'm sure of it.
What's going on here? A door, from thin air!
Well, stranger things happen at sea, or so I'm told, but onward! To the CaelidRegion Wilds.
I suppose my calculations were right all along. You should head this way as well, friend.
Heh heh...
Conversation 16
...!
Where did you spring from?
This was supposed to be a dead end, I'm sure of it.
What's going on here? A door, from thin air!
Well, stranger things happen at sea, or so I'm told, but onward I shall go.
I am the warrior jar, Iron Fist Alexander.
I was heading to Redmane CastleDungeon on the southern edge of the scarlet rot-blighted CaelidRegion Wilds.
Where a festival is being held. Until I was stumped by that dead end!
Heh heh...
Conversation 17
Be sure to get a good vantage, my friend.
I, Iron Fist Alexander, do hereby vow to unflinchingly brave this ordeal.
Conversation 18
Ah, if it isn't a Tarnished warrior.
I am the warrior jar, Iron Fist Alexander. The pleasure is mine.
Do you know for whom this festival is being held?
Well, it is none other than General Radahn himself!
To think, I could face a great champion of the Shattering, a demigod in the flesh...
In truth I quiver at the thought, such is his frightful repute.
But! The fear simply assures me the ordeal is worth undertaking!
Be sure to get a good vantage, my friend.
I, Iron Fist Alexander, do hereby vow to unflinchingly brave this ordeal.
Conversation 19
Ah, you came, how delightful!
Indeed, I thought I might find you here.
By the by, do you know for whom this festival is being held?
Well, it is none other than General Radahn himself!
To think, I could face a great champion of the Shattering, a demigod in the flesh...
In truth I quiver at the thought, such is his frightful repute.
But! The fear simply assures me the ordeal is worth undertaking!
Now, be sure to get a good vantage, my friend.
I, Iron Fist Alexander, do hereby vow to unflinchingly brave this ordeal.
Conversation 20
A-ah, hello there.
It was a battle marvellously fought. You are well and truly a champion, friend.
I, on the other hand, am nothing but a crock.
One hit was all it took to crack me, and for my insides to come spilling out...
After that, I hid like a coward.
And as such, I can hardly stand to face one such as you.
Conversation 21
...But don't you think I've given up just yet.
As luck would have it, there's a veritable mountain of warriors' bodies right here.
If I can just squeeze this bunch down inside me, I'll be a mighty warrior again in no time.
And you know... The bodies found here are exceedingly fine.
Who could expect any less from the very warriors who fought in the Shattering, the greatest of all wars!
Just you wait and see, friend. I'll grow even stronger!
Just you wait, when next we meet!
Heh heh...
Conversation 22

Just you wait and see, friend. I'll grow even stronger!
Just you wait, when next we meet!
Heh heh...
Conversation 23
Alright lads, I'm going to take you on a little journey.
You'll all be inside me, and be part of me.
From now on, we're all in it together.
So let's all of us dream big.
Conversation 24
What's that look, good sir?
Are you willing to help me out after all?
Conversation 25
Ahh, hello! How nice it is to see a friendly face!
As you can surmise, I've got myself stuck in a hole.
Would you mind helping me out?
Conversation 26
Ahh, hello! How nice it is to see a friendly face!
As you can surmise, I've got myself stuck in another hole.
Would you mind helping me out, again?
Conversation 27
My thanks! A thousand thanks!
Just give me a good smack from the rear, with something nice and big.
And I'll pop clean out. I'm sure!
Don't worry about my wound sustained at the festival.
I'm stuck back together good and proper!
Just give it your all!
Conversation 28
My thanks in advance, I know you're the man for the job!
You know what to do, hm?
Give me a good smack from behind with something nice and big.
Don't worry about my wound sustained at the festival.
I'm stuck back together good and proper!
Just give it your all!
Conversation 29
Come on, give me a good smack from behind with something nice and big!
Conversation 30
By the gods you are a man of vision!
This will have me as slippery as a toad.
I have a good feeling about this, my friend.
Right! Give me a good smack from behind with something nice and big!
Conversation 31
Phew.
I thought I was apt to split in half...
Mm, I can feel my lower half is stuck on something.
I don't think you can get me out just by hitting me, this time.
Hmm...
Let's think... Perhaps there's a way to slide me out a little more smoothly...
W-what if I could somehow be made slippery, or somesuch?
Conversation 32

Conversation 33
Hmm...

Conversation 34
My thanks! To you and your razor-sharp wits.
As a token of my thanks, I'd like you to have this.
Conversation 35
Yes, indeed, I too have a home.
Though it is one to which I have vowed not to return.
So, I thought I might look out from atop the cliff, but as I drew closer and closer...
Pow! Wouldn't you know it, I was perfectly stuck in that blasted hole.
I can feel the warriors inside admonishing me for my mawkishness.
To walk the path of champions, one cannot cleave to the past!
I'm headed to the fiery mount in the north.
I can strengthen myself there, without fear of cracking this vessel.
I will forge myself anew in its flames!
Conversation 36
I'm headed to the fiery mount in the north.
I can strengthen myself there, without fear of cracking this vessel.
I will forge myself anew in its flames!
Conversation 37
Deary me, I'm oilier than a toad!
There were countless oil jars back where I'm from, actually.
And now I know what it's like to be one of them!
Heh heh...
Conversation 38
Nnngh!
Ah, good sir, what business might you have in such a place as this?
I hardly think you're here to temper yourself with flame, considering that fleshly form of yours.
Your timing though, is impeccable as ever!
I've been making just the thing for you on my journey here.
Take it, I'm sure it'll suit you to a tee.
Conversation 39
Perhaps I'll head eastward.
There's an old saying I've caught wind of.
"Above the lofty clouds, the icy giant's peak doth soar, here lieth the flame of ruin, which ever burning roars."
Conversation 40
But oh, it's hardly more than lukewarm here.
I won't be able to temper my body such that it'll never crack again.
Perhaps I'll head eastward.
There's an old saying I've caught wind of.
"Above the lofty clouds, the icy giant's peak doth soar, here lieth the flame of ruin, which ever burning roars."
Conversation 41
You are ready then, I take it?
Conversation 42
Ah, I see you've finally made it here yourself.
The city hanging in the air is slowly crumbling. What an incredible place we find ourselves.
But that aside, I can't believe you felled that giant. It was practically a god...
I doubt there's another soul out there who could've done the same.
Of course I count myself, the great Alexander, among the many.
Which means, I've but one thing to ask of you.
Would you kindly undertake my ordeal?
Come and tell me when you're ready.
I've been longing to fight a warrior as accomplished as you.
Conversation 43
Ah, I see you've finally made it here yourself.
The city hanging in the air is slowly crumbling. What an incredible place we find ourselves.
But that aside, you're certainly a force to be reckoned with, eh.
I doubt there's a single soul who could've handled that giant, other than you. It was practically a god...
Of course I count myself, the great Alexander, among the many.
Which means, I've but one thing to ask of you.
Would you kindly undertake my ordeal?
Come and tell me when you're ready.
I've been longing to fight a warrior as accomplished as you.
Conversation 44
My thanks. I knew you were the stuff of champions.
It was a marvellous battle.
I implore you, take what I bequeath...from inside me...
All vessels are destined to one day break.
But the great Alexander lived as a warrior to his last!
Ha ha ha ha!
Conversation 45
A finer battle was never witnessed.
How do you fancy joining the lads inside, eh?
Conversation 46
Good sir, I can't believe your heart was in it at all.
Conversation 47
S-stop please! That's a little too rough for me, friend.
You'll crack me in half, like that! A little more gently, gently, please.
Conversation 48
Ngh!
Conversation 49
What are you playing at?
This is no time for games!
Conversation 50
G-good gosh, stop, please! That's my face!
Smack me from the other end! The other end!
Conversation 51
Ouuch!
Conversation 52
Ah!
Conversation 53
Ahhh!
Conversation 54
P-please! Wait. I have a terrible feeling about this!
Would you stop hitting me for a minute!
Conversation 55
Argh!
Conversation 56
Argh! No!
Stop, please!
I beg! I beg of you!
Conversation 57
I'll break! I'll break before I'm out!
Conversation 58
My lower half is stuck on something down there!
Conversation 59
Argh! Cease! Please!
Just stop a moment, I beg!
Conversation 60
Nngh!
Oh, yes!
That's the ticket!
Conversation 61
Nnngh!
Conversation 62
Then let us begin!
I am the great jar warrior, Iron Fist Alexander!
Lend me strength, O warriors within!
Let us become one champion, together!
Conversation 63
Wait, I see. I see it now.
Humans all lose their wits, eventually.
Conversation 64
Then there's nothing left to say, except...
I am Iron Fist Alexander!
The great jar warrior!
Conversation 65
I am the great jar warrior, Iron Fist Alexander!
Lend me strength, O warriors within!
Let us become one champion, together!
Conversation 66
How could this...
Was my whole existence... just a crock?
Conversation 67
Hello-o? Can you hear me?
Help me! I'm stuck!
Hello? Hellooo! Anyone?
Conversation 68
Ngh!
Rnnngh!
O mountain of fire! Bake me in your flames!
Rrrrngh!
Conversation 69
As I suspected... Victory...was impossible.
This vessel...was found lacking...
Notes
Iron Fist Alexander is found in multiple locations as the story progresses:
Alexander can be found in Northern StormhillLandmark, West to the river and North of the Agheel Lake NorthGrace Site of Grace. [Map Link]
He can next be found in Gael TunnelGrace.
This tunnel is in the border, between CaelidRegion and LimgraveRegion.
He can be found past a door, and once he is talked to he expresses his desire to move on to Redmane CastleDungeon. [Map Link]
If the Radahn Festival has been triggered, Alexander will disappear and appear at Redmane CastleDungeon.
Talk to him again at Redmane CastleDungeon, he will talk about his excitement about the incoming encounter with Radahn. [Map Link]
He can then be summoned for the boss fight against Starscourge Radahn.
If he has not been interacted with prior to this, he will show up at the festival anyway and introduce himself.
Before moving to his next location, he can be found scavenging at Starscourge Radahn's Site of Grace.
Here he must be talked to exhausting all dialogue to continue his questline. [Map Link]
Found in Liurnia of the LakesRegion, just south of Carian Study HallLandmark.
Follow the path south from the Artist's ShackLandmark Site of Grace. Alexander will call out for help as the player gets closer to his location.
He will ask you to make him "slippery." Use an Oil Pot or Roped Oil PotOil Potl ask you to make him "slippery." Use an Oil Pot or Roped Oil Pot to free him.
This step can be skipped by going to Mt. GelmirRegion after the Radahn festival. [Map Link]
Found near the Seethewater TerminusGrace Site of Grace at a lava lake south of Fort LaieddLandmark in Mt. GelmirRegion.
A message left by Alexander hints at his location. It is found by the entrance of the Volcano ManorGrace, by the cliff off to the right.
Alexander is sitting in the lake behind a Magma Wyrm. Alexander can be spoken to from the safety of the rock in the lava lake.
Upon exhausting all of his dialogue, he will give the player the Jar. [Map Link]
Can be summoned for the boss fight against Fire Giant. His sign will appear only after entering the area through either chain. [Map Link].
Summoning sign is inside arena, therefore does not affect boss healthbar. Player can summon him at any point of the fight.
In this encounter, he is immune to Fire Damage and deals high Stance Damage, therefore he is a very viable summon at a cost of inability to use Torrent.
Note: Alexander will not appear at the next location until you've defeated Fire Giant and progressed the story.
