    For some reason on my first play through, Patches decided to disappear without a trace along with the dirty man of 2-1 and 2-2.  I did not kill either of them.  I was baffled, but beat the game without their assistance.  I am now on my 2nd play through and I decide I'm going to go upgrade some weapons at blacksmith Ed.  I know I never laid a finger on the man yet he's decided to skidaddle.  The dirty man is still there with his ore shards though.  What the heck is going on here?  I've tried leaving the world and re-entering to with no results.  Is there anyway I can lure that bitter old man back so he can forge me some weapons?  Has anyone experienced something similar?

    The Dirty Man vanished in my NG+.  I thought it might have had something to do with me going from pure black to pure white WT but it must be a glitch.  This isn't the first time a character disappears from the game, Ostrava glitches out of many player's games.

    He is supposed to leave if you keep talking to him.  Notice how the more you talk to him, the more he forgets who he was.  My guess is that's what happens if you stay in the Nexus and don't kill demons; he did say he gave up when you first meet him.
