I have met with the NPC in 2-2 w/o changing my world tendency to black, earlier in my playthrough.. so even though i'm now turning it black, he's not there anymore. I also killed Ostrava at the end without getting the "hit list" from Mephoistoles first. Those are the only two ways I know of to get it.. and I also traded my Yellow soul for homing rather than insanity..
does anyone have an old demon's souls save, or current save with it? I can trade, or check on how to copy it over without losing it.
thanks!

Demon's Souls is an action-RPG developed by From Software and released in 2009. It quickly became popular within hardcore circles for its relentlessly steep difficulty level, deep combat system, and unique multiplayer integration.
Can anyone copy or trade me a talisman of beasts?
lol I would definitely take a mage weapon, made of breasts, any day.
@emem:
It's soo good emem, just stick with it. It's really the hardest in the beginning.. just realizing you're going to make mistakes, and being ok with memorizing the map layout and enemies without getting too disgruntled. The process of learning everything can be daunting to say the least. While I am by no means a master... it took me quite a bit of research at the Demon's Souls Wiki to find out some things. One of those things was about the talisman of beasts, which i'm now finding out I have to obtain in my next playthrough if I can't find anyone willing to trade : / It's not a HUGE deal though as the game does get a bit easier as you progress.
Don't get scared though, items are really only going to benefit your playing style. If you're a melee guy you may want to find out about the dragon bone smasher and the purple flame sheild. Definately visit 4-1 earlier on to obtain the Crescent Falchion +1 . It really helped me out when I needed to hack and slash. It'll be a little rough getting it right away.. but keep going. It'll make things a bit easier. I myself chose the mage route, so an upgraded catalyst is somthing i'm after.. I currently have the stock one still, and know my magic would benefit from my 43magic and soon to be upgraded faith.
Anyways.... Check out the links, and if you do end up getting to 2-2, with pure black, and meet a black fantom (Scirvir, the Wanderer) while "dropping" down, and obtain said TOB. I will pretty much trade you anything I have for it. :) Hell or even borrow you some of my stuff if you're having too tough of a time.. and don't have the desire to keep pushing.
@McGhee_the_Insomniac: That's harsh dude! lol Is there a way to copy items without losing them? I'd read that somewhere anyway.
" @bukkookkub: Sure, why the hell not? Let me check my character. "Sweet! I am actually on the ledge Scrivir would normally hang out on. I can summon hang out here if you want me to summon you. I don't really know how trading works, if you just drop the item.. or copy.. but it'd be much appreciated. I'm (ElementOfInertia)
@doejonathan: Thanks for the advice! I'll be sure to make another passover of the game in pure black before completing level 5. I don't quite know about the colorless souls.. but haven't really done much with captured souls other than turning one into homing and soul arrow. I do look forward to another run though!
" @bukkookkub: Sorry to disappoint, but I checked and apparently I deleted my original character. I vaguely recall doing it, and I am now sorry I did. :( "T_T it's ok. I'll prob check out what doejonathan suggested, and see if it works. Thanks for checking at least though!
Oh yeah, and did you get to the point in the story where you find out what that tornado hat thing really is?
Oh it's a save? I don't really know how that works. I just figured maybe there was a way to make a copy of the item or drop an item when in blue phantom mode. Really don't know too much about it tbh.
.. and yea I did. At the end of world 3 right? I tried to take it for what it's worth but.. there wasn't much dialogue haha!
@doejonathan:
oh and on the suicide thing.. can i just use a stone of emp eyes and suicide a couple times on 2-2? to ensure it's in pure black? I noticed I made world 1 black.. and killed the "filthy man" hoping it would help.. but it doesn't look the same as world 1 yet. : /
The big advantage Demon's Souls has over some of the other games I recently played are the controls, everything feels fine and it's not overly complicated. A week ago I tried Vanquish and since my aiming with a gamepad is "the worst", and on top of that they also throw like 20 different moves at you in the tutorial, I'm certain I will never finish that game.. I don't even want to play it again. Having said that.. I really like Demon's Souls even though it's very hard. :)
I'll prob leave this thread be for now.. and may update once something happens.
@doejonathan: oh damn.. yea I still have much to learn! I should have read more about character tendency before killing some people :p (also sounds horrible) It'll make for an interesting continuation at least.
@xyzygy:
It's ok. I'll figure it out eventually i'm sure. like i'd just mentioned to doejonathan, i've still got quite a bit to read up on. I really don't want to break my experience for sure.. just wish i'd have an upgraded weapon at this point.. and decided to go the homing arrow route over the Insanity because I was hoping I could get a TOB instead. : /
