Based on some old Japanese interview the original son may have been Andre, but was changed mid-development and the actual person who is now supposed to be the First Born is no longer in the game. A loose thread that may be answered in the sequel.

I really don't think it's Andre at this point. They said he previously had a more important role, but they didn't say anything specifically linking him to the first born. Check out my spoilered post if you haven't.

Well, as I said, he may have been at one point and he's not now. And its likely that whoever the first born is is not in the game and may be revealed in the upcoming sequel.

General obsession with the sun. He painted it on his armor and sheild personally. Search for his own personal "sun" which leads him to go crazy.
He's one the only 2 NPC's that use thrown lightning. (Other being Ornstien who is not the firstborn for many reasons.)
His affiliation with the firstborn's covenant.
Sunlight Medal description: The symbol represents Lord Gwyn's firstborn,
who lost his deity stats and was expunged from the annals. But the old God of War still watches closely over his warriors." Solaire literally watches over members of the sunlight covenant via boss fight summons.
If you kill him the sunlight alter fails to function giving credibility to the idea he is the source of the covenant.
He gives a really straight forward clue in dialog: "Oh, hello there. I will stay behind, to gaze at the sun. The sun is a wondrous body. Like a magnificent father! If only I could be so grossly incandescent!"

His armor also stats it doesn't have any special effects and that Solaire is strong through only hard training, if he was a deity like the first born is then he why wouldn't he enchant his armor?
About the lightning thing, Gwyn used sunlight bolts not lightning bolts. Also the player can also use lightning bolts so that doesn't really mean that he is the firstborn.
Solaire doesn't just watch over people in the covenant though, you can summon him regardless of being in the covenant.

I made a quality build and I'm wrecking shit. It's a lot easier than using a faith build at least at this point in the game.
 
I've been replaying through Dark Souls and I'm finding out that I'm still absolutely terrible at the game.

Also horribly unlucky. I couldn't score the Black Knight Sword or Halberd. And I can't keep more than 4000 souls before dying.

Some how, I finally made it to the first bell. At level 30+.
 
Played the DLC for awhile now was fun..I dunno why almost everyone keeps saying getting the black dragon's kalameet weapon is super hard to get(my fav boss hence my username here is similar to that dragon...) may be hard the first time but its durable just gotta keep making him glide over you and then stand at the middle and wait till he slams his tail down, after 2-3 hits and repeat about 3-4 times that should do it. Should come out easier if you have a strong weapon :D And holy shit what were they thinking with the new dark spells.....dark bead is just too strong and that spell will continue to dominate in pvp I hope my faith build can stand up to it which is designed to shut down mages completely.

And praise the sun! Dark souls 2! yeah can't wait
