Eileen the Crow

Follow this guide to help Eileen the Crow in Bloodborne, learn her gestures, and join the Hunter of Hunters covenant. Don't miss out on her rewards!

Alright, let's talk about Eileen the Crow. She's a pretty important NPC, and helping her out can get you some cool stuff. We'll cover what to do after you unlock the Cathedral Ward gate, and then what to do after you've dealt with Rom.

After unlocking the Cathedral Ward gate:

So, you've opened that big Hunter Chief Emblem gate, right? Before you go and fight Vicar Amelia, head back to Oedon Chapel. Go out the back and take a left. You should see Eileen hanging out near the fence. She'll teach you the Shhh! gesture.

Now, make your way to the Tomb of Oedon. You'll find Eileen in the middle of a fight with a guy named Henryk. If you jump in and help her out, you'll get the Approval gesture and the Heir Rune from Henryk's body. Heads up: If you don't help her, she'll die, and her whole questline ends there. You won't be able to join the Hunter of Hunters covenant, but you can still grab the Crow Hunter Badge off her corpse if you want.

After defeating Rom, the Vacuous Spider:

Once you've taken down Rom, head back to the Grand Cathedral. You'll find Eileen waiting for you outside, and she'll teach you the Wait gesture. Go inside the Grand Cathedral, and you'll have another fight on your hands. After you win that one, go back to Eileen. She'll give you the Crow Hunter Badge and let you join the Hunter of Hunters covenant.

Drops from the final encounter:

• 2,318 Blood Echoes
• Crow Hunter Badge
