Andre of Astora originally had a much different role in the early development stages of the game. He was originally going to be the son of Gywn and would also guard a door, which he would physically move at some point in the game for the player. As development went on, his role was changed to that of a blacksmith.

His role as a guard of a door isn't completely removed however, as he does hold the Crest of Artorias, which is needed to unlock the door to Darkroot Garden.

Knight Artorias (aka Artorias the Abysswalker) has cut dialogue found in the Artorias of the Abyss DLC. The cut dialogue implies he is not actually human himself and was slowly losing control over his own body and mind to the corruption of the Abyss, telling the player to stay away for their own good. In the final version of the game Spoiler:Artorias had already been completely overwhelmed by the Abyss, having no dialogue whatsoever.
