If the concepts for never before seen lands and creatures weren’t enough to make FromSoftware __ fans yearn for more, the art competitions for Bloodborne features inspired imaginings. Bloodborne and Sekiro evolved combat from Dark Souls , creating entirely new gameplay experiences that elevated FromSoftware __ into even higher territory. Bloodborne ’s portion of Soul Arts is dedicated entirely to fan imaginings of settings, characters, and gameplay of a sequel to Bloodborne . Artist Istrandar imagined the fate of Caryll, a runesmith who is one of the most important, but never seen, figures of Byrgenwerth. Istrandar imagines Caryll’s thirst for knowledge, leaving Byrgenwerth, working tirelessly to communicate with the Great One. Through dangerous methods, Caryll transcends her human form to that of a giant, beastly owl, communicating forever with the Great One, and inspiring whispers of her dangerous desc
The third boss she can be summoned for is the Draconic Tree Sentinel. For this sign to appear, all players need to have done is give her the Valkyrie Prosthesis and have defeated the Godskin Apostle. The final **Elden Ring ** boss she can summon is the Black Blade Kindred boss in the Forbidden Lands. Like the previous boss, players just need to have given Millicent the prosthesis and defeated the Godskin Apos
Mohg, Lord of Blood , is a particularly nefarious boss who is responsible for kidnapping another demigod in hopes of bringing another Outer God to power. Sir Gideon Ofnir, one of the most notable Tarnished to return to the Lands Between at the beginning of Elden Ring , also contends with the evil demigods in his pursuit of the throne and eternal knowledge. Godrick is another particularly slimy boss. He is the weakest demigod, which leads him to do nasty things. Rykard also stands out for his ignoble actions in pursuing the power of the Elden thr
Whips are found in many Soulslike games and can be powerful in the hands of a skilled player. In Elden Ring , there are only a few whips available, but Hoslow's Petal Whip is one of the coolest players should try. The whip comes with the Kick Skill, but its Ash of War can still be changed to fit the character's build. And like other whips, it inflicts decent levels of bleed damage that can be increased if a player equips two Petal Wh
Reddit user Practical_Meat devised a detailed analysis and theory that puts Sir Gideon’s actions into perspective. The Reddit theory poses the idea that Gideon only encourages the player Tarnished to obtain the shardbearers' Great Runes so that he could kill them and take them for himself in one go. This makes sense given what he says in his boss fight; that no one will be allowed to take the role of Elden Lord. It’s good that the player Tarnished is there to make Sir Gideon pay for his acti
After Lord Rykard claimed his Elden Ring shard , he vowed to overthrow the Golden Order and oppose the Greater Will. This act awarded him the title of Lord of Blasphemy, but many still chose to join his cause. One of the Shattering’s most horrific battles was fought just outside his stronghold of Volcano Manor, and, like many battles in the war, no clear victor emerged. As a result, Rykard sought to augment his power in a despicable
The opening cinematic of Elden Ring further identifies Godfrey/Hoarah Loux as " Chieftain of the Badlands ," while the item descriptions for the Champion's Set armor pieces expound on how " the brave warriors of the badlands shun excess adornment " __ in emulation of their chieftain. In-game, the character of Godfrey never discusses his life in the Badlands (which hopefully won't be Elden Ring's DLC setting ), but the NPC Nepheli Loux , a distant relation of Godfrey and axe-wielding warrior, shares a lot about her life in dialogue with the player. In the Village of the Albinaurics, Nepheli recounts a grim slaughter she witnessed as a child, describing it as " The oppression of the weak. Murder and pillage unchecked. A waking nightmare, made by men. " __ Throughout her quest line, she refers to the " wind " as a divine force of nature and the " storm " as a force of cleansing justice. These words and others suggest that the Badlands are a harsh, desolate place, wind-swept like Stormveil and full of marauders who use their strength to take from the w
Sir Gideon Ofnir, The All-Knowing, is a mysterious character in Elden Ring . Sir Gideon is one of the first people the Tarnished protagonist meets at the Roundtable Hold, of which Gideon is also the leader. He is never particularly kind to the player, rudely brushing them off in their first interaction. Sir Gideon is responsible for the ruthless massacre at the Village of the Albinaurics, which he orchestrated to locate a piece of the medallion that grants access to the Haligtree region. Upon returning to Elden Ring Maps Ring’s Roundtable Hold with the medallion, the player is attacked by Ensha, Gideon’s lapdog. Gideon then lies to the player about trying to have them kil
