<br>According to PC Gamer , besides the main work of Martin on which Miyazaki based the Lands Between on, Hidetaka was inspired by many of the conversations both masterminds had where they discussed some matters of the game.

In-universe, the crystalline substance called Glintstone is what makes the scholarly discipline of Elden Ring 's Glintstone Sorcery possible, while the Azur's Glintstone Crown and Lusat's Glintstone Crown items , looted from mute NPCs encountered during the Sorceress Sellen quest-line, share the following passage in their item descripti<br><br> <br>Then, in Elden Ring , Godfrey's Grace was taken by Marika, and he was exiled from the Lands Between. Martin could very well feel that his own Grace was stolen with the trajectory of Game of Thrones . The show, based on a world he created, reached the height of popularity, becoming a cultural phenomenon. Once the backlash started to pour in, he might have felt that the showrunners robbed him of his Grace, leaving him tarnished and sending him - metaphorically - into exile like Godfrey, becoming Elden Ring 's Hoarah Loux . Alternatively, Martin could have seen it as the consequence of his own story growing beyond his control - perhaps no ending would have satisfied his audience. Similarly, in Elden Ring , Godfrey may have seen his exile as the result of him defeating all the worthy opponents in the Lands Between, having no choice but to travel to distant lands in order to grow stronger<br> <br>Over time, sorcery-users began to vary in which celestial bodies they found power in and to what ends they wished to use their magic. This then led to the many schools of Intelligence-based magic types seen in Elden Ring . Though the game itself spends little time explaining how these sorceries came to be, item descriptions can uncover their past.

The dark fantasy style of Soulsborne games allowed Martin, known for killing off beloved characters, the creative freedom to possibly include Elden Ring sidequests with sad endings and feuds between characters whose views leave the player uncertain as to whom they should support. When the Tarnished returns from their exile, they are nobody important to the inhabitants of the Lands Between, and it's possible Martin felt the same way, entering into the position of writing for a video game rather than a novel. He may well have felt a lot like the Tarnished concept he was creating, someone exploring an unfamiliar landscape. He may have been searching for a way to regain his Grace and continue the Golden Order by fixing his reputation, just as the Tarnished can ultimately repair the Elden R<br><br> <br>The following "helm" items described below bear a close resemblance to the heads and bodies of certain NPCs and some of the best enemies in Elden Ring . Some of these items can be found and picked up by going to certain locations in Elden Ring 's open world. Others must be acquired by completing certain Quests or slaying certain enemies (repeatedly, if those enemies have a low chance of dropping the item in question).

Fortunately, Elden Ring gamers who want to give their character a wolf's head don't need to attack Blaidd for it. After beating the main boss in Caria Manor and progressing into the area beyond, players can acquire the "Black Wolf Mask" item by hopping up some walls near Seluvis's Rise, where Seluvis brews his potions .
