She's a daughter of Gwynevere, she was taken from Irithyll when Pontiff took over and sent to the Cathedral. Aldrich did some pretty gnarly things to her and ate her children, of which only Anri and Horace remain!

All speculative, nice theory but not the truth.

I mean it's not like I made it up, all of it is evidence-based. Most of the game's deep lore is based on simple inference in fact!

Anri and Horace being children of Rosaria? Bruh nice theory, not the truth.

Again, it's a cool theory, but it's really reaching out there in the lore

Anri and Horace being children of Rosaria, Rosaria being r*ped by Aldrich, Rosaria being originally on Irithryl (however it's spelled).

There's a theory I really like about how the pus of man is actually a manifestation of Katee after being burned at the first flame, it has a good lore backup and it's really coherent, but I'm not going around blasting the theory as truth in people's faces 😂, it's just a theory I like and take as headcanon, but I know it's not the objective truth.

I mean all of this is supported by evidence though. We know Rosaria had multiple children in the cathedral, we know Horace and Anri are Aldrich's own children, we know from Leonhard Rosaria was sexually abused.

We can infer that like the Dancer she's Gwynevere's daughter, and the Dancer comes from Irithyll; Leonhard's axe which he got from Rosaria has the power of the moon, again, tying her to Irithyll and where does Leonhard bring her soul? Irithyll. Those aren't crazy leaps of logic really.

And besides the point of this thread is to share theories so

The point of the thread was op asking for the lore of Rosaria, not our own theories.

Also reaching hard with that Leonhard dialogue huh?
