All vessels are destined to one day break. But the great Alexander lived as a warrior to his last! Ha ha ha ha!

Alexander be like, 'I am nothing but a crock! All it took was one hit and my innards went spilling' My brother in the greater will, you CARRIED the fight

33:50 that Shadow Man that appeared there and CLEARLY attacked our poor precious Jar Bro, how dare they!!!

The first time I met this guy, I knew he would break my heart. Not because of him turning evil, but that he would want to prove himself beyond his normal limit. And I know it’s what he wanted in the end, but it doesn’t make it hurt any less.

One of my favorite moments of video game immersion was truly roleplaying my Tarnished on my first run through Elden Ring, deeply invested in Alexander's journey. It was gut wrenching to hear his resigned shame over being defeated with a single blow of Raddahn (no less!) despite being so braggadocios yet charmingly eloquent with his power and title before the festival. Yet, the reveal that he is fueled by the visceral essence of fallen warriors, churning and distilling it within his body, literally and symbolically tempering himself to be tougher, he won me over. All culminating in proving his worth as a fighter against the Fire Giant when summoned as an ally. I truly wished you could have given him the option of becoming your knight and champion after achieving Elden Lordship, but he is not bound by servitude, but the warrior path, which is always one of death in glory. But death all the same. He may have felt fear, but courageously overcame it, and accepted a shattering defeat, delighted to have journeyed further than any Jar has ever done. And even then, his legacy not only lives in the Tarnish's memories, but literally inside of his nephew Jarbin.

the voice, the dictation, the finishes, another master class ghostcharm banger

I love him. You don't realize it at first, but Alexander's questline is like a microplay of the entire plot of Elden Ring, since Marika is just a vessel for The Elden Ring. It even ends with a god slain.

Oh my gosh! Never would've expected a video on Iron Fist Alexander. Very bittersweet story.

A Vaatividya x Ghostcharm video would go so hard let’s be real

I love Alexander he is such a cheery dude is such a bleak world. Also lmao at the phantom killing the nephew jar as you’re giving him uncle’s insides.

often, a vessel can be measured by its contents, but a warrior is made by the deeds, and the times and places it has done them in. Alexander is more than the sum of his volume, or his ceramic firmament, he is Iron Fist Alexander, every inch his choices, spirit, and wisdom. So live on, little Jar Bairn, and become the warrior the Lands Between needs again, now that Uncle Alexander has become the warrior they _had._

33:50 spirit fucking killed him

A good jar, I say. Met his end with honor, as a warrior

The beautiful thing about his character is that he has passion for something that he isn't really made for. He's so fragile as a pot but still pursuits the ways of a warrior to seek after those who hunt his family down jarburg (poachers). He even thinks about the player by making us a helmet along his journey. It's a story about passion and the fact you should do what you love no matter who or what you are. There is a warrior jar in all of us.

Was not expecting this. Excellent. Still very sad whenever I do his quest, only a homie as real as him helps me with the Fire Giant (BS boss). I use his shard with pride.

Alexander, Solaire, Sigemeyer, Siegeward and now Rusty. I am glad From Software gives us bros to help us along the way.

I find it very interesting that Jars do not have the Undead attribute and weaknesses. If the Jars are naturally occurring by virtue of the Rune of Death's destruction/theft compelling them to live in death, how are they different?

Come for the Ghost, stay for the Charm

Whoever tried killing Jar-bairn at 33:50 is a poo poo eater.

A new video game peida video is always nice to see. What an amazingly written NPC, the heart of warrior who goes out laughing. From Software makes such memorable characters with arcs of their own... and this one is a lovable jar.

Steve Harvey got a big belly laugh out of me 🤣 Also, how is this the first time I find out you can talk to Alex at Mt. Gelmir by standing on the rock?? My dumbass was right in the lava for the conversation 🤦

Iron Fist Alexander is another cherished NPC that gets addded to FROMSOFT's long list of endearing companions who's fates can end in some form of happiness or tragedy. Thanks for giving the lovable Jar Uncle the Ghostcharm treatment.

i love the brief otogi shoutout at the start. it and its sequel were two of my all-time favorite games as a kid, i've always felt they've been unfairly forgotten.

I see Ghostcharm, I click like.

Alexander being sad after the Radahn fight confused me during my first playthrough. He actually did most of the work for me XD. I understand there's a story being told besides what my gameplay shows me but I legit got hard carried and he said I was a better warrior.

Iron Fist Alexander is hands down the best character in Elden Ring. There are more flashy folks, more intricate folks, there's Boc, and they're all great. But there's none that feel like a labour of love added because someone wanted to like Alexander.

I’m gonna be honest, the first interaction you have with him, I thought a normal person was trapped inside a jar lmao I was not expecting it to be a warrior jar.

Ghost posted? And it’s about Jar man? YIPPIE!!

"Wait- he forgot Patches as a archtype-" -shows Lapp- "OH YOOOOOOOOU"

Alexander assisted in the slaying of Starscourge Radahn. He is not lacking in courage, strength, or wit.Love them as a character.

One of my favorite characters in a fromsoft game, with my favorite ending.

I think Alexander is our friend, but he is a Warrior Jar, and he sees you as his equivalent. One of you must take the other's boons for the road ahead, as two heros of lesser measure simply will not be enough. think he even shows friendship through the honor of his final encounter, he could have ambushed you or something but instead he sits at the end of a road and waits for you to accept the same conclusion he has.

I brought Alexander in against the Fire Giant, and was left in awe as his big, fiery uppercut staggered the Fire Giant in his first phase. It made me gasp, took me back to watching Tarkus solo the Iron Golem. Also, there's a link between Alexander and the Jarwright puppet you can buy from Seluvis, though it's a bit sad if you look into it.

Alexander is my favorite npc in ER no contest. I've always really enjoyed the kind of aloof and goofy characters they've done in the series, with Siegward being my other favorite. He always reminded me of Winnie the Pooh, same w Alexander.

I like how there's an echo of someone killing the baby jar during his emotional moment. XD

Ghost you are a blast to watch. Your takes when it comes to games, lore, or even the smallest concepts are fantastic. I can’t wait to see what other masterclass your going to make next.

LETS FRIGGIN GO. He broke my heart in Crumbling Faram Azula. One of my favorite NPC’s

You’re girlfriend is such a real one. Here’s to the Ghostcharm clan for masterfully reciting yet another legendary tale!

Im a big sucker fir the onion knight characters. They were always my favorites. I was so saddened at first when I killed Alexander, but it was the end he wanted. Dying to a great warrior and passing his legacy onto his nephew. I wore the jar helmet he gave me, and the plumpest set of armor I could find and took up the mantel of Jar Knight to help anyone who would summon me.

Idk man I feel like this is the perfect pick for an Elden Ring character for this series. Wonderful video as always.

"strong enough, i deserve to have uncles insides" 💀💀💀💀 this sounds sooooooo wrong to me also i do believe alexander is our friend, he even asks permission at the end. instead of attacking without warning which could have been the deciding factor in him actually getting our insides inside of him

A Heropedia on Godfrey would be really cool

The great warrior Iron Fist Alexander. With blows mighty enough to topple a Giant, a body strong enough to resist the Starscourge, and the impeccable tenacity and wisdom to reach the fabled Farum Azula. A hero and a legend, let us give praise.

His story ending was the only time I hesitated to kill in elden ring. I genuinely was like wait wait cant we just talk

I find it weird that the small Jar is called Jarbin and the town Jarburg; but Alexander isnt called something like "Jarvis" or "Jarthur", or maybe "Alexanjar". But.. the sample size is too small to know if theres any actual jar naming conventions.

Madlad really got to Farum Azula with +2 flask

It's a good day when Ghostcharm posts

Getting emotional over the ending of the jars quest at 2am? yes.

he's such a bro he just lets you oil him up. rest in peace Alexander the Great

It's so sick to finally see an "obscure" good videogames list that isnt just mentioning cult hits for once! Fantastic videos and now I have some games I need to look into

It'd be cool to see a Marcus Fenix heropedia someday

There is a metaphor for life in there somewhere. The show must go on

35:59 awwwwwww that's precious

I hope the ghost attacking Jar Bairn at the end watches this and amends their ways in their next playthrough

I’d love a video on Blaidd, far and away my favorite from soft character, besides maybe Gael

One step closer to the Gwyn villainpedia

I wish I had your cadence and natural delivery. it's so smooth. Also excellent video.

I genuinely cannot think of a worse fate than being trapped as part of the consciousness of a jar person.

The greatest jar I've ever met

I think you should do a Heropedia on The Hollow Knight.

I wonder what would happen if Alexander met Solaire

"There is no serious items to gain from this characters" *laughs in Alexander shard* Great video good sir

I would love to see you cover different archetypes from the Soulsborne games, with examples of how they're generally and specifically represented!

33:50 That spirit attacked Jar Bairm!

Absolutely amazing video! At the end you mentioned Alexander maybe not being the subscribers first choice for characters but I think what sets you apart from others is how much passion you put into smaller stories or characters. Always go for a story you care about, the quality will reflect your passion. Thank you for making these videos!

They have a concept called erdtree burial so that they can be reborn, the catacombs where constructed around the eardtree roots

It's definitely fitting to have him join you in the Giant fight the same as the fight against Yhorme

This is a good video

Subliminal messages of crockpots are telling me to name mine Alexander.

I think Hewg is probably my favorite character. Poor fella

damn ghost, you are truly an under rated content creator right now. if you keep posting like this it will make every one of us very happy fans! i cant get enough of these videos!!!!

Encountering Iron Fist Alexander in Farum Azula, you know what's coming. As painful as it is to put an end to an absolute Lad and your mate, it would be more painful to deny him his dream. Blessed be IFA, a warrior to the end.

I ruined Alex's dream by fighting Radahn solo

would consider doing Fia the Deathbed Companion and The Loathsome Dung eater with same exceptional in depth dive as this for Alexander ?

I haven't watched it yet but I just wanna say I really enjoy the videos. I just started watching your vids and their really good!

I believe Warrior Jars bring the remains of the dead, particularly those that died well in battle, back to the catacombs or the minor Erdtrees scattered around. They do this because of Erdtree burial.

I just discovered your channel and you're absolutely dope!! I watch a lot of KZfaq while working and these videos made my day go by faster and interesting

When it became apparent he was challenging me, I knew it was a foregone conclusion that our main character would be victorious. But his opening attack was the massive epic leap punch ground slam, and for a split second I was like, "😧 Oh shit I'm so screwed." RIP, legend.

Man, I knew it was something from Dark Souls, but I wish that I guessed it was going to be this legendary guy, it was going to be a matter of time. So glad to see Ghost back with another banger upload.

Iron Heart Alexander is a true warrior who shall live forever in the annals of history! I am sad though that you have to kill him, although he wouldn't have it any other way I suppose. (also that note at the end is super cute)

I've beaten this game multiple times and I refuse to fight Alexander. In all of my completed games, he's still out there somewhere...

Oh, WOW! Beautifully done video! You gave Alexander's story so much depth and meaning! New Sub!

You think he finally went down in Farum Azula, but we all know he still lives. Just with a different name and in a different place where help is very much needed. The Haligtree.

It is possible that the erdtree avatars create the jars as a means to repurpose the souls who are not reincarnated by the erdtree. Maybe it is some type of hell, where offenders against the golden order have their remains sealed inside for eternity.

What a joyous occasion.

Though all of them are excellent, videos like this one and the one on the crab merchant are some of my favorites on your channel.

I'd love to see Jarl Balgruff shown some love, but I'd also love to see Arthur Morgan paid tribute in your style of video. He's a complex character and you do a great job analyzing them.

Yet another amazing entry, Ghost! Loved it, especially since Alexander is my favorite NPC from Elden Ring right next to Sellen. I did think it was hilarious when you were talking to Jar Bairn at the end that one of the PC shades was killing him in the background, too, though it's completely unrelated!

Oh! You picked a very clever community hint for this one! But man, I love Alexander. He's the perfect FromSoft mix of gross and amazing. Also hey! Who's the asshole trying to smash Jar Bairn near the end!?

Another banger in the books.

Nice deep dive into the charnel crockery. Do you think the harvested souls are held in a kind of purgatory and denied Valhalla - endlessly fighting and dying? Or do they ascend if their remains happen to provide nourishment to the Ygdrassil seedlings?

Rather than canopic jars its more than likely the Pair Dadeni (Cauldron of Rebirth) from welsh mythology. that has the ability to resurrect the the dead. It was destroyed by welsh anti-hero during with a battle with the irish. Seeing the irish use the cauldron to revive their warriors he hides amongst the dead and is thrown in, and destroys it from within, sacrificing himself. Its also what the black cauldron from the movie The Black Cauldron (and the books the movie is based on) is based on. It fits the celtic vibe as well.

Couldn't have chosen a better first elden ring character ❤

He just wanted to be strong and heroic...Ahhh Alexander.

On the contrary I’m glad you chose Alexander first. Great video man

"sure ill watch a 30 minute video about a jar"

Alexander really is a top g tbh

I really appreciate your positivity and approach dude. You're a good one.

I keep falling for characters in games named Alexander... First FFXIV, then Elden Ring... It's a running theme... Alexander my beloved, you didn't deserve what happened to you...
