Players in Elden Ring quickly noticed the turtles in the game, and surrounded them with messages with the word "Dog." The meme spread and took a life of its own, with countless jokes being made calling animals in the game d In the Mountaintop of the Giants area of Elden Ring , players can encounter the being known as Shabriri , an undying avatar of the Three Finger's Frenzied Flame who has possessed the corpse of another NPC called Yura. Shabriri, soft-spoken, eloquent, and utterly unhinged, urges the player to avert Melina's act of self-sacrifice by imbuing themselves with the power of the Frenzied Flame, bestowed by the Three Fingers entity sealed away beneath Leyndell. If the player does become the Lord of Frenzied Flame in _Elden Ring _ , Shabriri will become an NPC players can summon outside the boss arena for Godfrey, The First Elden Lord, wielding both Yura's Nagakiba katana weapon and Shabriri's own Frenzied Flame Incantati 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 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 However, the death of Godwyn the Golden poses a potential challenge to this theory. On the Night of the Black Knives, Ranni’s physical form died while Godwyn’s soul form perished. Godwyn was supposedly Marika’s favorite child, and, from some perspectives, his death is one of the reasons she tried to destroy the Elden Ring, which led to a Elden Ring 's brutal war known as The Shattering . In other words, it’s unclear why Marika would help or recruit Ranni if it would mean the death of her favorite child. One possible explanation is that Ranni accepted Marika’s help with the intention of betraying her, but there is no solid evide While it might seem to be parasitic, the relationship between Miquella and his Haligtree is actually more symbiotic. In Elden Ring , Miquella's cocoon is the only form in which he's seen. Mohg, as someone obsessed with Miquella, cuts him out of the Haligtree and takes him away, and due to this, both the Haligtree and Miquella suffer, displaying their symbiotic relationship. The Haligtree is not a parasite, and it's unfortunate that its potential is never realized due to Mohg's actions. Since Miquella's status is unknown, if he's alive, it's possible that he might try to salvage the Haligtree, or he might start over if it can't be sa Anor Londo's name is likely an adoption of a language created by J.R.R. Tolkien in Lord of the Rings , and can roughly be translated as " Land of the Sun ." If Elden Ring and Dark Souls were connected, the Sun Realm Shield could be an artifact from when Anor Londo basked in the sunlight. Though this is likely just an obscure Easter egg for fans, it does present the interesting idea that the events of the Dark Souls series could have happened long ago in Elden Ring ’s timel Like in Dark Souls, Demon's Souls , and <a href="https://WWW.Eldenringfans.com/articles/souls-like-odyssey-top-games-of-2025.html">best Souls-like titles</a> Bloodborne , phantoms of iconic NPCs can be summoned just outside the chambers of certain boss areas in Elden Ring , a free form of cooperative aid players can access without needing to expend Focus Points or toggle the game's online mode. Most of the major cooperative NPC summon signs can automatically found in places relevant to their personal quest-lines. One example of this is Blaidd, the half-wolf warrior and servant of Lunar Princess Ranni, who can be summoned to execute his former comrade Bloodhound Knight Darriwil and summoned in the arena for the Starscourge Radahn boss fight , whose gravity magic holds Back Ranni's grand destiny. Other NPC summon signs are only triggered when a player advances their personal quest-line by triggering certain dialogues or fetching certain items; the more obscure (or sinister) these quest-lines are, the more likely players are to miss these summon si While one would hope that these players still fulfilled their daily tasks and jobs on time, it's very likely that Elden Ring took a priority for some, depicted comedically in the meme. The amount of time players spent on Elden Ring likely led to players finding the multitude of hidden details that the game has to of
