2-in games you will rarely get one that isn't something you are told you had after the fact......

4-As I understand it Dark souls is all about a character exercising choice beyond what other souls typically have...

5-otherwise the world would have different foes everywhere rather than types restricted to areas,

6-so something else attempting to place her under a geas is not something we shouldn't expect. 1-It's a magical curse or compulsion that requires you to fulfill some condition, or else you suffer a penalty at the hands of fate. Which is not the case in any Dark Souls game.

In fact, if anything could be called a Geas in Dark Souls, is the idea of Igniting the Flame. And there's no real punishment if you choose to not do so in any of the 3 games.

2-Which never happens in Dark Souls.

3-Except it would be bullshit thrown out of nowhere that neither fits RWBY nor Dark Souls.

4-......Yes and no? You are a hollow and have little choice in goals beyond Igniting the Flame, the very purpose of your existence. You generally have to work a little harder to even have other endings available.

But at most, it makes you special among Hollows, not among souls in general.

5-That's obviously due to gameplay.....and the fact that it would be nonsensical otherwise. It would be like expecting snow leopards to appear in Africa. If X creature is from Y, what would they be doing anywhere else?

And even then, there's already a varied enough diversity of enemies in most areas.

6-No, it is something we should not expect, since it's not present in Dark Souls. Nor in RWBY, or at least in Pyrrha. So throwing some wild idea in and justifying it as "Surprise Geas!" would be bad writing.
