Bloodborne: All Questlines Checklist

All Quests Checklist Overview

The checklist is located below this introductory text.

This checklist contains every NPC questline in Bloodborne. Questlines reward unique weapons, armor, Caryll Runes, Gestures, Hunter Tools, and other exclusive items that are often unavailable anywhere else, usually through unique Badges.

How to complete all Quests in Bloodborne

Most questlines begin simply by speaking to an NPC, but they usually progress only after defeating major bosses or advancing the night's Moon Cycle. Many NPCs move to new locations as the story progresses, making it important to revisit previously explored areas and speak to them again whenever new dialogue becomes available.

Unlike many RPGs, Bloodborne does not include a quest log or objective markers. Quest progression is tracked entirely through NPC dialogue and story progression. As is common in Fromsoft games, the NPC dialogue is extremely cryptic, making it easy to lose track of questlines during a blind playthrough.

We strongly recommend using a step-by-step checklist like this one, which tracks every step in every questline to not miss any. With this checklist, it is possible to complete All Questlines in a single playthrough in a way that does not miss any important rewards.

Missable Quests

Several Questlines depend on specific story progression and can permanently fail if major bosses are defeated before completing the required NPC interactions.

Do NOT attack any NPCs unless specifically prompted by our guides. Do NOT defeat major bosses (especially Rom, the Vacuous Spider), unless you're absolutely sure every required NPC questline step has been fulfilled.

About Questlines in Bloodborne

Questlines are among the most rewarding optional content in Bloodborne. Besides unlocking exclusive collectibles, they reveal much of the game's lore and often influence the fate of the characters you meet throughout Yharnam.

Some questlines also present mutually exclusive choices, meaning not every reward can always be obtained in the same way. This checklist is designed in a way that leads to NPC endings that yield every single worthy reward (except for some consumables, which can be found or bought elsewhere).

The only exception is the Gascoigne's Daughters quest. In your main playthrough, we recommend sending the young sister to Oedon Chapel (she will be eaten by the Boar in sewers) to later progress the quest and ultimately obtain the White Messenger Ribbon.

However, you also need to send her to Iosefka's Clinic to get one of the Caryll Runes. We recommend doing this in NG+, as it is accessible just a few minutes after the opening cutscene.

If you've been following our Bloodborne 100% Checklists closely, this is the only thing you need to do in NG+.

Potential Oedon Chapel Guests

Arianna

Arianna is one of the NPCs that can be sent to Oedon Chapel or Iosefka's Clinic. If she ends up in Iosefka's Clinic, she will be transformed into a celestial. Killing it will also drop Arianna's Shoes armor.

Be careful so Arianna doesn't die while she stays at Oedon Chapel: Suspicious Beggar NPC can kill her AND Adella can kill her, if she's present and you collect Blood of Arianna three times.

Remember to not unnecessarily attack any NPC. Note that this is not the only way the quest can go - this is the recommended plan of steps to maximize completionist rewards.

There are 4 steps in this questline.

Lonely Old Woman

Lonely Old Woman is one of the NPCs that can be sent to Oedon Chapel or Iosefka's Clinic. If she ends up in Iosefka's Clinic, she will be transformed into a celestial. Lonely Old Woman is an unofficial, community name for this NPC.

Be careful so Lonely Old Woman doesn't die while she stays at Oedon Chapel: Suspicious Beggar NPC can kill her and asking for too much Sedatives will also kill her. This doesn't have a big effect, as she doesn't have any interesting item drops either way.

Adella

Adella is one of the NPCs that can be sent to Oedon Chapel or Iosefka's Clinic. If she ends up in Iosefka's Clinic, she will be transformed into a celestial.

Be careful so Adella doesn't get in conflict with other questlines while she stays at Oedon Chapel: Suspicious Beggar NPC can kill her AND if you take Blood of Arianna 3 times, Adella will get jealous and murder Arianna, if she's present.

Suspicious Beggar

Suspicious Beggar is one of the NPCs that can be sent to Oedon Chapel or Iosefka's Clinic. This is the only NPC which we recommend sending to Iosefka's Clinic. If he ends up in Iosefka's Clinic, he will be transformed into a celestial and have an item drop. Suspicious Beggar is an unofficial, community name for this NPC.

Be careful so Suspicious Beggar doesn't interfere with other questlines - sending him to Oedon Chapel will start his killing spree and he will kill 1 other NPC per defeated boss, giving you only 1x Beast Blood Pellet for them.

Djura

Djura is the gatling gun enemy you encounter in Old Yharnam. You can actually befriend him, but for this, you need to encounter Darkbeast Paarl - and go visit Djura from either Church of the Good Chalice or Darkbeast Paarl's arena, essentially going backwards through Old Yharnam.

Our step-by-step guide recommends NOT killing Darkbeast Paarl at this point, as it is easier. But defeating him and going to Djura from his arena instead of Church of the Good Chalice also work, although is more difficult.
