The Nox are the inhabitants of the twin Eternal Cities, Nokron and Nokstella. There was a third, unnamed Eternal City that was destroyed by Astel, Naturalborn of the Void, as mentioned in a boss' remembrance, discussed by Reddit user Canor_jax . The armor set of the Nox reveals that they long ago angered the Greater Will and were banished underground. There they live under a false night sky in eternal anticipation of their Lord of Night and the Age of Stars, Elden Ring 's most popular endi
Rogier, one of the game's NPCs, has dialogue that hints at links between the Nox and the Numen. He says that the Black Knife Assassins are scions of the Eternal City. This implies that the Nox and Numen may actually be the same race. One likely scenario is that when the Greater Will arrived in the Lands Between and demanded the residents worship it as their god, the Nox refused to convert and were punished. Numen, translated from Latin, can mean "favor of the gods." The Numen may be those of the Nox who accepted The Greater Will as their
In reality, Boc is secretly hoping to receive affirmation from the player. Offering him the Golden Needle, a piece of demigod armor to alter, and using the "you're beautiful" Prattling Pete in front of him affords him the praise he's so long desired. While he's not among the most useful characters in Elden Ring , he's one of a very small number of Elden Ring NPCs who aren't predestined for a terrible f
For those looking to home in on magic-oriented builds, finding the right staff is a must to maximize raw damage output as well as damage over time. There are great all-around staffs like the Meteorite Staff, while others like Lusat's Glintstone Staff are immensely strong for later-game use and Intelligence investm
Despite not being seen as a competition-focused game, **Elden Ring ** has seen some major changes to its meta from nerfs. Whether players focus on the Tarnished's journey in PvE or prefer to take the path of the Bloody Fingers and fight others in PvP, they have to watch out for what Bandai Namco and FromSoftware have planned up their sleeves. The updates they have brought to the game have already dramatically influenced how it is pla
Marika is an Empyrean, a vessel chosen by the Two Fingers to serve an outer god known as the Greater Will. As ruler of the land, she formed the Golden Order under the Greater Will that dictates many of the world’s inhabitants' actions, like why Trolls pull coffins across the Lands Between . For all the mystery and intrigue surrounding Marika, a few items reveal her backstory. The Numen’s Rune item description explains that Marika belongs to the race of Numen. This also ties her to the Black Knife Assassins, as their armor Https://WWW.Eldenringfans.Com/ description reveals them also to be Numen. It’s possible to select Numen as the player’s race in the character creation menu, where it is stated that they are a race of long-lived individuals that descend from another wo
Despite her status as an Empyrean and vessel of the Greater Will, there are hints suggesting she was plotting to betray the outer god. At Elden Ring 's Roundtable Hold , the player can hear the blacksmith Hewg whispering a prayer to Marika. He can also be heard muttering about Marika’s command that he smith a weapon that can kill a god. The Greater Will may have learned of this plot and locked Marika inside the Erdtree as punishment. The god’s knowledge of her betrayal is supported by the fact that the Two Fingers have selected three other Empyreans to be Marika’s successor - Miquella, Malenia, and Ranni. Marika's imprisonment could be why her Grace is guiding the Tarnished, to put the player in contact with Hewg so they can use the god-killing weapon in her st
Godwyn The Golden is notably featured in Elden Ring’s story trailer and referred to many times in the game, but when the player finds him, they only see him for the horror he’s become. DLC may offer a way to show him in his past form. Miquella, Malenia’s twin brother, is one of the most mysterious characters whose influence pervades the Lands Between. The state the player finds him in is just as puzzling, so the DLC will almost certainly expand on this plot thr
Queen Marika the Eternal is the catalyst for the game's events. She is the one who shattered the titular Elden Ring , throwing the Lands Between into a brutal war called The Shattering . Throughout the game, the player finds churches and statues dedicated to Marika. Several NPCs even tell stories about her. When the player finds her seemingly imprisoned inside the Erdtree, her body is broken, and she doesn’t speak. Instead, she transforms, confirming one of the biggest plot twists in the game: Radagon and Marika are one and the s
A noble wolf-headed warrior, Blaidd is a loyal servant of Ranni the Witch who seeks to aid the player as they do her bidding. While he can be found in Limgrave's Mistwood, most will likely encounter him in an ethereal form in Ranni's Rise after they agree to help the witch. Though he doesn't play a major role in the events of Elden Ring , depending on when he is met, he can be summoned during the battle against Starscourge Radhan. NPC summons are an integral aspect of that fight, and his presence is a welcoming comfort that could turn the tide in one of Elden Ring 's hardest boss battl
