As exciting as learning more about where Nepheli came from and whom she was before coming to the Lands Between, there is another NPC that the unconfirmed DLC may shed light on. Before he was known as Godfrey, First Elden Lord, he was a warrior named Hoarah Loux. Despite the name change, Godfrey is one of the most important individuals in Elden Ring lore. He was Queen Marika’s first Elden Lord, and together the two had three children: Godwyn the Golden, and the Omen twins Mohg and Morg
Elden Ring’s ties to Bloodborne ‘s Eileen the Crow run deeper than aesthetic, however. Eileen is known as a Hunter of Hunters, eliminating those who have gone mad and blood drunk from Beast Hunting. Her story has fascinating parallels to a character in Elden Ring named Yura, the Bloody Finger Hunter. He hunts those who have been enthralled by Mohg, The Lord of Blood, and his blood magic. The Bloody Fingers invade the worlds of other Tarnished to defeat them. During his quest line, the Tarnished helps Yura defeat several members of the Bloody Fingers, including the assassin Ravenmo
The Royal Revenant is an optional boss found in the Kingsrealm Ruins in the northwest section of Elden Ring ’s Liurnia of the Lakes . Players can reach the ruins early in the game and find the boss room beneath an illusionary floor in the ruins. While revenants and royal revenants are challenges that can be found in other locations of the game, fighting this Royal Revenant is annoying because of how small the boss room is. Getting pinned against the wall while being poisoned and hit by the boss is a huge possibility. And if players are not careful, they can be killed as soon as they enter the r
One unanswered question is the relationship between Nepheli and Godfrey. Since Godfrey becomes chief of the warriors, the name Loux may be a clan name that Nepheli took to show which clan she came from. Another potential connection is she may be Godfrey’s mysterious Elden Ring warrior daughter born before or after his marriage to Queen Marika. Nepheli could also be distantly related to him, like a granddaughter or great-granddaughter. The relationship between Nepheli and Godfrey at this moment isn’t entirely known, but perhaps the unconfirmed Barbarians of the Badlands DLC could further explain their relationship. It also could reveal more about this mysterious Badland location that lies beyond the Lands Betw
One central character that ties into this plot is Ranni the Witch. She is aligned with the Nox’s goals and is hinted to be working with them in some capacity, as she has a teleporter in Renna’s Rise that links to Nokstella. Like the Nox, Ranni seeks to finish her Elden Ring quest by ushering in the Age of Stars, which is the achievement awarded for choosing her ending. She is also an Empyrean and child of Radagon/Marika. During her quest line, Ranni reveals that she was behind the Night of the Black Knives. It’s possible that Marika conspired with Ranni by telling her where Destined Death can be found since Marika is the one who removed it from the Elden Ring and hid
If players do choose to “be held” by Fia, however, it also results in a 5% decrease in max HP for players, as long as they have Baldachin’s Blessing enabled. But anti_ideophobia didn’t notice the initial loss, and so went the entire game without disabling this option, which they would have otherwise d
Painted Worlds appear in the first Dark Souls – the Painted World of Ariamis – and during Dark Souls 3 ’s expansion, Ashes of Ariandel – the Painted World of Ariandel. In both cases, these worlds are accessed when the player interacts with a painting. What follows is a short cutscene of the player character being pulled inside the painting when their hand touches the canvas. The player is then transported to a world entirely separate from the rest of the g
This trophy puts players’ skills to the ultimate test and requires them to conquer every major trial that is laid before the players. While there are many trophies players will have to go out of their way to obtain in this game there is no more difficult than this one, but it perfectly shows why Sekiro is one of the strongest protagonists from the soulsborne expansion ga
The first phase isn’t too bad for players who are good at fighting long-distance, in fact, the whole boss fight is a bit easier for those players. But for players who are much more used to the typical hack-and-slash style the game promotes will have a far more difficult time. Thankfully, the bonfire is right beside the boss r
Nox, translated from Latin, means “night.” The Nox, wanting revenge on The Greater Will, sought to forge their Lord of Night with the use of Mimic Silver Tears. These are fluid beings that make up Elden Ring ‘s most overpowered Spirit Ashes , and can take on a multitude of forms. They are often seen as silver blobs but also appear as Nightfolk, one of the selectable races in the character creation menu. The Mimic Tear Ashes and Silver Tear Husk item descriptions explain the Nox’s attempts to create a lord. It isn’t clear whether or not they succeeded, but if they had, the Nox wanted this lord to bring about the Age of Stars and overthrow the Greater W
