    Fun story: I was fighting this boss on NG+ difficulty, intending it to be my final fight before being finished with DS2. I was even using his own weapon, the Ivory King Ultra Greatsword, against him. Just as his HP was down to 25%, I got the warning that the sword was at risk of breaking. But, it held out. On the very final blow that defeated him, the sword broke... the Burnt Ivory King and the Ivory King Ultra Greatsword destroyed at the same moment, and the perfect way to end my time in DS2. I'll leave the sword forever broken in my inventory to remember the moment.

    I love revisiting this boss fight. Planning on buying DS2 on PC as my PS3 doesn't work anymore, just so I can go back to this fight and beat him again.
    For those who never played Dark Souls 2 (keep in mind what I'm about to say is what I remember from 4 or so years ago), this is an old kingdom, absolutely covered Frost and Ice. The Ivory King was a proud, humble and merciful Knight who became it's King. "The Greatest Knight" was his title. He was, for all intents and purposes to be, the "White Knight become King", although he did do some pretty awful things, in general he is by far the most well-liked King in DS2.
    At one point, he took in Alsanna (the person born from Dark at the end), and protected her. He knew what she was, but he always helped those in need. During this period of time, he was weakened (I'm not sure if it was Alsanna or the Old Chaos) but he decided it was time to finally do what he had been aspiring to do for nearly his entire life: subdue the Old Chaos, the force that wrought corruption and devastation to the Kingdom. Given by context, I think he knew he was on a timer, and the longer he stalled, the lower the chance of success.
    He left with the Eleum Loyce Knights, others who were inspired by his actions and took up arms in White/Silvery armor, to lend a helping hand to those in need. He took them with him into the Old Chaos and never returned. Alsanna realized he had not only lost, but been consumed by the Chaos itself. The Eleum Loyce Knights that were not lost or maybe stayed behind for the Kingdom. lost hope and returned to their homes, heads hanging low, praying and hoping they will have the opportunity to one day end the Old Chaos, that which took "the great Knight of all the Lands" down, and upheld the standards of Chivalry.
    When you come along, Alsanna explains this to you, and if you try to fight him immediately, you will find only a single Eleum Loyce Knight has stayed behind all these years, in the chamber room, standing at the ready to plunge at a moments notice. You then re-explore the entire Kingdom hoping to run into/find the remaining knights, each sitting in a chair in a secluded area, heads low, praying. When you open the door, they look up, take arms, and disappear. In the room, another Knight rejoins the wait.
    When you have all the knights, you charge in head first, eventually leading to each Knight giving their life to permanently freeze gates of the Old Chaos, eventually leading you and hopefully 1 remaining Knight to fight their King and put an end to this.
    It's not just the lore, but the ideology that he spurred such faith that Knights plunged head first into Chaos and Corruption for the sake of the world, and when they fell, the remaining Knights rally with you to put down their Old Beloved King, to finish what he started, all charging in knowing they're all going to die. It's not a matter of "if", but rather "how much can I accomplish before it overtakes me".
    Keep in mind, in the Dark Souls Universe, Chaos and Corruption isn't what a lot of modern entertainment is. It's more akin to a Phenomena than a disease or state of mind.
    Nobody can resist it, some just deal with it better than others. Just like how a bird can fly and a fish can swim, they can both not touch the ground, but gravity is constantly applying pressure, and they all have to come down eventually. You can't "fight" gravity, you can't "resist" gravity, it just *is*. You don't "fight" Chaos or Corruption, you fight the forces it spawns forth. In this same way, the Ivory King tried to fight the forces of Chaos and Corruption, and was Corrupted himself.
    It was the only fight in the Souls Borne series that compares to Radahn, and is absolutely amazing. It also broke my heart ;(

      Stronger beings got taller through their soul. Also Lords (the race, not the actual Lord Soul holders) were taller than normal human, which is why Black Knights/Artorias/Ornstein/Nameless King/etc. were all taller.
      As for DS2, idk. Its an age/world of man, and I think most of the human enemies (Alonne, Vendrick, Ivory, etc.) are naturally larger due to them being stronger? Im not sure how it would work for human enemies.
