Find a safe place | Side quests Bloodborne Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
After you enter Cathedral ward, talk to the NPC there (to the right). Do this twice and you receive information on safety in Oedon Chapel. The other safe place is in Iosefka Clinic - get back to her and talk to her, across the locked door. From now on, you can mention either of the places to the NPCs that you meet during your exploration.
Note: After you send the first person to the Odeon Chapel, talk to the NPC inside again, to receive the gesture Triumph. In general, it is much more profitable to send people to the Odeon Chapel, because at Iosefka Clinic you only receive the Blue Elixir/Lead Elixir. The other thing, a much more important one, is that the heroes turn into blue opponents, because Iosefka conducts experiments on survivors. After you visit the clinic again (across the cave in Forbidden Woods), you will be able to kill them for items that they would normally drop after their death.
Note2: remember to talk to NPCs as soon as possible. Defeating some of the bosses (e.g. Vicar Amelia, Rom, the Vacuous Spider) makes this impossible later on.
The old Lady
You can find the Old Lady in Central Yharnam. You get to her either after you exit the sewers, or from the other side, as you head towards the lantern, across the house (the gate on the left)m and ahead, among dog cages.
After you send her to the chapel, you first receive nothing from her but, later on, she will be nicer towards you. After you talk to her, you receive 1, 2 and 3 Sedatives respectively. Then, the lady disappears for a moment and leaves a letter behind. After she is back, you can receive more Sedatives, but this time she disappears or good. You can find her body in the chapel, with more Sedatives.
Courtesan Arianna
Arianna is in Cathedral ward. While facing the gate to the main yard, climb to the very bottom, on the left. After you defeat the opponents, talk to the person behind the door on the far left. As soon as you kill the three bosses, he asks you about safety.
In Odeon Chapel, you receive gesture Bow from the person. Also, you can use the blood that you receive from the person, which has healing abilities (up until you kill Rom, the Vacuous Spider). After you kill Micolash, you can take the NPC to Oedon Tomb, where Arianna is having a child (right after you climb down the ladder into the flooded room). Kill the child (she also dies, automatically), and you receive Bury Arianna and One Third of Umbilical Cord.
Skeptical man
The Skeptical Man is in the window, opposite the door in which you talked to Arianna. If you told her about safety, talk to the window twice and the man will return the question. Tell him about the lace, where you do not want him do go, because he will then go to the other one (if you tell him about Iosefka Clinic, you will then met him in the Odeon Chapel and the other way around). There are no interesting events, connected with the man, After his death, you only find 3x Pungent Blood Cocktail.
Nun Adella
To meet Adella, you need to defeat the Blood-starved Beast in Old Yharnam. Thanks to this, new opponents - catchers- appear around the location. After you are killed by an opponent of this type, you will get to the Underground Jail. Adella is at the very bottom so, exit thee cage and go right, where you find stairs. To talk to her, you need to have the outfit from the Healing Church (e.g. White Church Garb, Black Church Garb, Gascoigne's Garb). Talk to her twice and she asks you if you know of any safe place.
In the chapel , you receive from her a gesture Church Bow (female). Also, you can take advantage of her blood treatment, whose functioning is similar to Arianna's blood.
Note: Adella may kill Arianna, out of jealousy, if you use Arianna's Blood more than three times. For safety, you may either not use the blood, or kill Adella after you receive the gesture.
Suspicious beggar
You meet him in the woods, on the roof of the house right past the opponent, who fires his cannon at you. To get to the top, jump down, to the roofing below, right after you enter the dark room. There, on the left, you find a ladder over which you get to the top. The next passage leads to the roofing on which you find the man.
You can send him to the chapel, but he will then wait in front of the entrance and kill every survivor, one after another. For this, you receive a Beast Blood Lump.
As a matter of fact, the man is not who he seems to be. The reason, for which he kills others is that he is a powerful beast - a miniature version of Darkbeast Pearl. To find this out, attack him on the rooftop, several times, to see the transformation.
Also, you can attack him after you send him to the chapel, where he will be taking quite a damage, after his transformation. For the fight, you receive the rune Beast.
