The Story of Judge Cleric, the Radiant Sentinel | Lords of the Fallen Lore 

People saying there is no story or lore in this game.. and out comes a forty minute video on just one character.

I wish there was a secret third option to help redeem Judge Cleric, but I'm also very, very keen on redemption arcs and happy endings

Very good, very based. The minute I saw her design, I craved the lore 🗿

At any point Orius could’ve just told her “hey you’re doing this wrong”, perhaps Adyr has a point..

Oh man, this is one I been waiting on big time. Judge Cleric is one of my favorite characters in the entire game, probably actual favorite. Also, how in the world do you manage to pump these out without losing out on quality and with covering such long topics? I feel like your release cadence is superhuman!

Great lore videos, and incredible quality! This channel is basically VaatiVidya of Lords of The Fallen.

The severed hands are interesting....It mends the beacons but also is used to show devotion to Adyr as well.. Demarose does this too.

I love how so many of the character stories in LOTF could be great tragic books. From Bramis and the royal family, to Pieta and Judge Cleric, a deeper glimpse into the pinwheel before the fall would have been great to witness. Gotta hand it to Adyr for his AAA+ levels of petiness. Dude waited and plotted and planned and in the end (maybe) gets to revel in Cleric's corruption with glee. Thank you for keeping up these lorevids. The way you tell stories makes them that much more fun to listen to.

I'm so glad this showed up on my recommended, this series is fascinating.

Been loving these Lords Of The Fallen lore videos. Keep them coming! I request for a Damarose lore video

I'm so happy this channel exists. LotF has excellent lore that, in game, is a bit tough at times to interpret as a whole. Videos like this give great context and make the game more fun to live in! Thank you!

I love the lore of these characters, they bring out my sympathy and understanding regardless of how horrible their actions are. Incredible Video ❤

Whoa!! A 40 min lore vid?! And about judge cleric at that, heck yes! Seriously this game characters and in universe world history have some really amazing lore and some ppl think its very lacking but i beg to differ. Another great lore vid lorebearian. I've thoroughly enjoyed listening to it as well as the one covering the royal family of bramis too. One thing i've noticed from watching both lore vids is that all of the atrocities witnessed and chaos and destruction that came upon mournsted all could've been prevented if harkyn or judge cleric would've just destroyed ardyr rune. But as usual mankind weakness to temptation from the devil's whisper always wins over eventually and screw everything up for the world.

Great video, LotF lore is underrated Also I gotta say, normal "current"-Cleric (like in the intro cutscene and some art)is a bit of a looker

Thanks for doing these. I know the games had mixed reception but I liked it quite a bit. And happy to have some lore to listen to while I replay it 😁

I keep coming back for the judge's fate section all the time; the narration, the music, and the ironic tragedy around the end make it so iconic.

i finished the game yesterday and saw your first video on the lore, and now there's another one what a coincidence ! Great video !

Great video, this game has amazing story and characters.

This is awesome. This is part of what keeps me playing; keeps me looking for more.

another awsome lore

I wish we could "save" her and resurrect her through the form of iselle so she can undo all the malific hatred she unintentionally spread throughout her kingdom in her maddened state of mind.

Fantastic work

Great video LB!

Keep The Lords videos coming 💪🏼💪🏼

Been waiting for this 🔥💯

Hey, epic that this is here! Hope its unlisted soon so everyone can see it!

Great video. Be interested in some Of the Rhogar being explored if possible.

Love these LotF vids

Now this is a treat.

Amazing video..congrats!

Thank you for new great video! I was glad to hear a tiny bit about Latimer as well) also the story pushed me to few questions: 1. If she sacrificed her arm to beacon, did it grow back? Because she has 2 everywhere in the game, or I am just unattentive 😅 2. Church of Orius growing from Cleric looks like a platform to establish new kingdom of mankind, free of Adyr's will, but has nothing to do with Orius himself. It's just an idea, but since Orius beheaded himself and is dead, does that me that Judge just used his name for own purposes? Also, since she was highly skilled in inferno magic, what if all of those "divine" skills where created by her, based on infernal knowledge she possesed? I know it's kind of conspiracy, but will be pretty cool of all the divine church being fake religion, based on infernal practises. For good purposes, but still manipulation. Thanks again, waiting for next videos!

Your videos on this game help a lot to give context because the way the game was initially designed you had no time to stop and take it in.

Hey I gotta question when reading about the lampbearers it says even though she’s forgotten she was the true Cleric (exact spelling) does that mean the Cleric we fight isn’t the true one

All this pain and suffering just because if evil was destroyed for good, judge would have no more power or purpose? There will always be evil lurking in the dark

Here are a few new insights I discovered with further research into the lore! While the intro cinematic makes it look like it's portraying the end of the war against Adyr, the presence of the hand of God indicates otherwise, as the rune of the Adyr item description states that the hand formed long after God's exile. "Once, some believed the colossal hand of Adyr to be the god's actual hand, the rest of his body buried beneath, but in reality, the formation manifested long after Adyr's exile, a symbol of his festering rage, powerful enough to cross dimensions." Perhaps even thousands of years after Adyr's defeat, if Kaslo is to be believed. "Thousands of years ago, Adyr did come to the battlefield. And that is where we defeated him." What I think is actually happening in the intro cinematic is the invasion of Mourstead to establish the beacons, which kind of goes along with the creative director's statements. "The Kingdom of Mournstead was a very successful, industrious place with a mine. But what you see there, the 'Oldest Disneyland' was not created by the Hallowed Sentinels [Servants of the Judge Clerics]." "Those people, those knights [Hallowed Sentinels], invaded a land; they took everything." The Rhogar we see in the intro possibly hint that the kingdom of mournstead was one of the last bastions of Adyr worship in Axiom and, as such, was reinforced by Adyr's Rhogar forces. Another thing that I find interesting, and that probably explains Ady's absolute bitterness and pettiness, is that he himself seems to suffer from the effects of exposure to the energies of his prison; he describes in his fights that after his exile, ages of torment followed. "You have no idea what it is to suffer such monstrous betrayal or to endure the ages of torment that follow." With half of his face already rotten off and his arm showing mutations similar to those experienced by the sundered monarch, it's likely the ages of torment he referred to were exposure to the realm's energies. "Once, all who exhibited any sign of the Rhogar corruption were purged with brutal efficiency in a desperate attempt to control its spread, but in their spiraling madness, the Hallowed Sentinels have come to regard their rotting flesh and tainted blood merely as a test of devotion."

Has anyone had any luck with finding her Remembrance Weapon’s special abilities?

Hey, you gonna have to turn these out faster! I need more!

How did she live for over 1500 years? Harkin lived a 1000 and some change due to an umbral parasite. Im guessing it was the power given to her?

Is there any evidence who the other two judges were

God damn... I've watched 4 hour long lore videos that played less ads than you have

Will she return to her normal form if we don't do inferno ending?

Letss gooooo

Hmm now I am starting to see why Orius did what he did. (spoilers) Hmm I'm starting to see why Orius went full nuclear upon Mournstead Sodom and Gomorrah style (its actually too much corruption which has become so perverted I don't think the people of mournstead can be reedemed and by judge cleric herself besides other things, its a bit too much but I starting to see why he is willing to kill everyone there), though this maybe unfair to the Judge Cleric and her followers and to Harkyn as well but at times I wonder if they should've never rebelled against Adyr at all even though that sounds sheepish of me to say.

Is she human? How did she survive for so long, without aging?

Her story kind of reminds me of Darth Vader

how does she have two hands when you fight her if she sacrificed one to the beacon? 🧐

I believe that the Adyr Ending is the true ending of the game.

Why is judge cleric able to live so long?
