Quick Answer
Community consensus — needs in-game testing
Community guides converge on seven named endings in The Blood of Dawnwalker: five main finales — The Turncoat, The Folk Hero, The Patricide, The Knyazmaker and A Hero They Deserve — plus two endings that can trigger early: a prologue strike at the lord Brencis, and a flight from the western border. This page lists them because three independent sources agree on the names. It deliberately stops there: nobody has documented the requirements branch by branch, and we have not finished the game ourselves. Everything below carries an explicit needs-testing label.
Read This First: What "Untested" Means Here
Endings are the single most rumor-prone topic around this game. Several sites have published fabricated endings — including one invented achievement that no player has ever unlocked — and those same sites contradict themselves between articles. That mess is exactly why this page takes the most conservative stance on the whole site:
- We list a name only when three independent editorial sources agree it exists.
- We attach no requirement lists, no faction tables, no rankings — those circulate, but they disagree with each other, and no source has demonstrated them.
- We have not completed the game ourselves. Nothing on this page comes from a finished playthrough of ours, and we will not pretend otherwise.
- When our own complete runs document each branch, this page gets rewritten with tested requirements — and the badge at the top changes.
The Seven Named Endings
| # | Ending | Type | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | The Turncoat | Main | Named by three independent sources — details untested |
| 2 | The Folk Hero | Main | Named by three independent sources — details untested |
| 3 | The Patricide | Main | Named by three independent sources — details untested |
| 4 | The Knyazmaker | Main | Named by three independent sources — details untested |
| 5 | A Hero They Deserve | Main | Named by three independent sources — details untested |
| 6 | Prologue strike on Brencis | Early trigger | Described as reachable by attacking the lord during the prologue — untested |
| 7 | Western border flight | Early trigger | Described as reachable by fleeing the region — untested |
What the same sources do agree on, in broad strokes: the five main endings are reached through the story's final act, while the last two can fire long before the credits under extreme choices. Beyond that, claims diverge — so we stop.
Claims We Deliberately Do Not Repeat
- "4+1 hidden endings" — published by a site whose own articles contradict each other; no verifiable source supports it.
- A secret achievement for a hidden ending — the achievement in question has no unlock records anywhere; treat it as invented.
- Per-ending requirement checklists — multiple versions circulate and disagree; printing one would just be picking a rumor.
- Corruption-tier ending charts — the general claim that Corruption influences resolution comes from developer interviews and is worth tracking, but no cited source documents distinct endings per tier.
When This Page Gets Better
Two things would upgrade this page from a names list to a real endings guide: completed playthroughs on our side documenting each branch, or a breakdown published by the developer. Until either happens, the seven names above with their untested labels are the honest ceiling of what can be said — and that honesty is the difference between this page and the fabricated lists it sits above in search results.
