slightly smaller font.
- Color coded tags will be added to indicate how confident I am in an event’s/entity’s veracity
- (RS) : Rock-Solid <= 95% accurate
- (ML) : Most-Likely <= 75% accurate
- (IP) : Is-Possible <= 50% accurate
- (NL) : Not-Likely <= 25% accurate
- Though I tend to use “Most-likely” as a show of stronger confidence then “Possibly” as well
- Use the Outline, it’ll help keep track or take you to a section you’re interested in.
- This is a living document. More Is being added all the time as I figure things out.
Concepts to keep in mind:

- Elden ring seems to be a combination of FromSofts previous games. Similar concepts, stories,
creatures, and themes from those other soulsborn titles are present here but not directly
linked. FromSoft is well known for reusing what they have.
- Dragons existing before spacetime / the current era
- Scales of stone that provide them immortality
- Cycles of rebirth
- A stagnating world
- Influences of greater/minor powers in the world
- Lovcraftian entities
- Deities or demigods
- Monarchs or Lords
- Individuals like NPCs and the Player
- Religions/Cults worshiping said greater influences on the world
- Widespread curse of undeath
- Despair in the inevitability of time/death/change and the force of will to surpass/accept it, or give
up to it.
- Ruling a stagnating world vs Ushering in a new world vs Destroying it all
- Game director Miazaki is on record stating some of the outside inspirations/references for
Elden Rings world
- Lord of the Rings
- “The Eternal Champion” series of novels by Michael Moorcock
- Aspects of tabletop RPGs such as “RuneQuest”, etc.
- Western religious concepts and themes.
- Eastern religious concepts and themes
Preface about the Universe:

- Elden Lord
- Is a title of great reverence, not just necessarily one who is a consort of a vessel of the
elden ring. Though there can only be one elden lord at a time. (RS)
- Empeyron
- Is seemingly a title of one who is capable of being a vessel/envoy for an Outer God. (ML)
- Could also be a title for one who is capable of becoming a god. (IP)
- Title given by the two fingers (RS)
- Though it just might be that the 2 fingers recognizes the potential of ones who
are already empeyrons rather than creates them. (IP)
- Red & Gold
- Red is the color of the primordial crucible in its purest form (RS)
- e.x. Ancient Dragon lightning
- Gold is the color of the life energy of the primordial crucible that was an amalgamation of
all life. (RS)
- The Erdtree, Godfrey’s Golden Shade/Spirit/Ghost, faith incantations, gold fire
spewed by both the Elden Beast and Dragonlord Placidusax, etc… are all of the
life energy from the crucible. (RS)
- The “Primeval Current of the Stars”
- Most-likely a force of nature and energy similar to that of The Primal Crucible but wholly
separate.
- Sorcery is created by astrologers through the study of the stars and thus ultimately the
energy from the Primeval Current. (RS)
- Incantations are from faith in a god utilizing life energy from the Primal Crucible that an
Outer God channels. (RS)
- An Outer God acts like a high voltage transformer that lowers the voltage so their
worshipers can use them safely and more easily. (ML)
- Considered a "darkness" like an "abyss" that brought fear ("Comet Azur"). (RS)
- Crystalians are inorganic beings, yet live ("Shattering Crystal"). (RS)
- Cleave close to the ideals, as interpreted by sorcerers, of the Primeval Current.
(RS)
- Teaches "Magic Downpour" to others to mark the swearing of the old concord.
(RS)
- Possibly the old concord, an agreement or harmony between people,
references how the true study of sorcery is from studying the stars as
astrologers.
- Like how "Founding Rain of Stars" was created by the first ancient
glintstone sorcerer who was an astrologer. (RS)
- The Stars of the night sky guided fate before the guidance of grace. (RS)
- Celestial Dew (aka Night Tear)
- Hidden Tear found in the Eternal City. (RS)
- A recollection of those times where stars guided fate. (RS)
- Fallen Starlight
- Amber Starlight Shard

- Silver Mirrorshield is festooned with amber
- Is said [amber-hued stars are] to command the fates of the gods.
- Blue Starlight Shards
- Found on Astrolabes
- Is said [the blue-hued stars are] to command the fates of non-gods.
- Lovecraftian-like “outer” gods exist. (RS)
- They can directly/indirectly fully/partially interact with the physical world. (RS)
- The One Great (ML)
- Most-likely a “father” god to the other outer gods or potentially split into the other
outer gods when creating life from the primordial crucible. (ML)
- The Japanese translations reveil The One Great and the Greater Will to
be separate entities. Source (ML)
- If creation of individual life was The One Great’s doing then the Greater
Will was the one that introduced the “mistake” into the creation of life. (IP)
- Possible that The One Great is the Crucible itself. (NL)
- The Greater Will (RS)
- Has an agenda to send the elden star/ring/beast to planets to hijack its cycle of
life and death to grow stronger from the souls that are buried at its roots of the
Erdtree that grows from the life/souls it gets. (RS)
- Gives out a blessing to those who follow its will. (RS)
- Directs its envoys to remove the influence of other outer gods to grow unabated
(e.x. dragons/giants/etc). (RS)
- If not The One Great’s doing; the Greater Will created life from the crucible and
creation of individual life would be to its advantage in gaining more power. As
manipulating people could be easier or a requirement for getting ahold of the
crucible's life energy to gain strength. (ML)
- The Greater Will / the fingers gifts half-wolf/lion-beastmen to empyreans/Lords
and to spy on them and go mad and assassinate them if they betray the Fingers.
(RS)
- The Frenzied Flame (RS)
- Most-likely birthed from the “mistakes” of the Greater Will in the creation of life
from the primordial crucible. (by Hyetta’s dialogue)
- The mistake is essentially the addition of suffering/despair/pain into the
world alongside individual life. (RS)
- Additionally the suffering/cries-of-despair of the Nomadic Merchant’s tribe
of people buried and sealed under Leyndell, the Royal Capital seems to
also be the catalyst for the Frenzied Flame’s Birth. (RS)
- Is the force that wishes all to return to the combined life of the primordial crucible
without the introduced “mistakes” created with life from The Greater Will / The
One Great.
- The Formless Mother (RS)
- Alias: Mother of Truth (RS)
- Likes blood and craves wounds (RS)
- “Mohg stood before her, deep underground, and his accursed blood erupted with
fire and was besotted with the defilement that he was born into.” Move This
- Unnamed God of Scarlet Rot (RS)
- Sealed underground below the Scarlet Rot Lake by an unnamed blind
swordsman with a flowing blade like water. (Blue dancer charm) (RS)
- Possible teacher of Malenia when she was young since she was born
cursed/blessed with the scarlet rot (Prostesis-wearer heirloom)
- Would explain why the Swordsman would go through the effort to
seal the said god.
- Scorpion’s Stinger weapon is crafted from the relic of a sealed outer god
located in the lake of rot (RS)
- Worshiped by the malformed creatures “children of rot”. (RS)
- Unnamed God of the Moon (NL)
- Most-likely isn’t actually an Outer God.
- Celestial Objects in space seem related to the Primeval Current of the
Stars which seems to be a natural force rather than an entity.
- Those who study natural forces/objects in space may gain
insight/enlightenment into the Primal Current and invent sorceries
imitating those inspirations.
- If the insight/enlightenment is too much to handle one can
become broken by the knowledge gained.
- Uninterested in interfering with the physical world (RS)
- Known as a Guide of Many Stars (RS)
- Connection with the Primeval Current of the Stars (RS)
- The witch ranni seems to have a connection to this outer god. (RS)
- Unnamed God of the Deathbirds (RS)
- Not to be confused with destined death / black fire, but is connected to ghostfire.
(RS)
- Mother of the Death Rite Birds (aka. Deathbirds) (RS)
- Unnamed God of Dragons (IP)
- Most-likely is actually The Greater Will and not a separate outer god if the Elden
Lord is a title only for those of The Greater Will’s Elden Ring. (ML)
- Possibly it is defeated by The Greater Will in Godfrey’s war against the dragons.
- The One Eyed God of Fire (RS)
- The Giants worship it and get their pyromancy incantation powers from it. (RS)
- The planet is unnamed but could be referred to as “earth”. (ML)
- The “Lands Between” describes the continent (All six regions) the game takes place on.
(RS)
- The name’s meaning could be literal as the Flying civilization of Farm Azula is above and
the underground civilizations of Nokron and Nokstella are below the Lands Between.
(NL)
- Could be a more meta-physical name as it’s a land between the other parts of the
planet/reality and that of the powers of the outer-gods whose influence is centered there,
therefore being some sort of “heaven” or “eden” on earth. (ML)
- The Lands Between is surrounded by a “fog” that keeps out those who are not blessed
by grace. (RS)
- Supported by Melina’s dialogue welcoming the tarnished player “from beyond the
fog” (RS)
- By Queen Marika’s word echos it’s told that after the tarnished die in the world
outside of the Lands Between she will return grace to them that she took and
allow them to return to the Lands Between, wage war, and brandish the Elden
Ring. (RS)
- Supported by the player tarnished starting off in what amounts to a church
on the edge of the continent after seemingly dying. (RS)
- Other continents besides the one in the “Lands Between” exist: (RS)
- The game maps show drawings of long range boats coming to and leaving the Lands
Between’s continent.
- Shipwrecks exist on and off the shores of the Lands Between’s continent.
- Enemies sit on the beach nearby boats that they seemingly arrived on.
- The tarnished are “exiled from the lands between” then later called back. This implies
other places to be exiled to. (RS)
- Godfrey the first Elden Lord was exiled as the first Tarnished. It’s said he took on a
different name of “Hoarah Loux” and became the chieftain of the Badland warriors. He
fathered the NPC Nepheli Loux who was left in the Lands Between under the care of Sir
Gideon Ofnir. (RS)
- This confirms a separate land that he was exiled to called the “Badlands” (RS)
- He and the rest of his knights and other tarnished come back to the Lands
Between after dying in the other lands. (RS)
- The “Land of Reeds” armor set confirms a separate land called the “Land of Reeds”.
(RS)
- Queen Marika originally came from the lands of the Numen. Thus Numen is a confirmed
separate land. (RS)
- The character creation screen also confirms the Numan people as well as the people
from the Land of Reeds. (RS)
- There are three Trees of importance: The Great Tree, The Erdtree, and Miquella’s
Haligtree.
- The Great Tree
- The original tree that makes up the core of the now Erdtree (RS)
- Proven by out-of-bounds camera looks at the Erdtree ingame allow you to
see the tree’s original branches.
- A number of items describe or reference the Great Tree as separate from
the Erdtree.
- Has roots that delve deep into the earth below the Lands Between.
- Races that continue to worship the great tree and the crucible:
- The Omen
- More Info Here
- The Misbegotten
- More Info Here
- The Crucible Knights (RS)

- Godfrey had 16 crucible knights under his control (“Crucible Axe”)
(RS)
- More Info Here
- All of which were despised and banished or enslaved. (RS)
- The Erdtree
- The spiritual visual parasite of The Great Tree (The golden glow/image over The
Great Tree) (RS)
- Contains the golden life energy of the primal crucible
- Gathered from the souls of those who are buried at its roots.
- Supported by all those undying who clamor at the roots of at the
end of the catacomb dungeons. (RS)
- Was once intertwined with the roots of The Great Tree (RS)
- Possibly lost its connection to the Great Tree with the shattering of the
Elden Ring.
- Possibly just as it has aged it has started to wither instead.
- The Dew that drops from it’s branches were like jewels (“Amber Medallion”,
“Crystal Tear”) (RS)
- Used by sorcerer’s to create the man-made race of Albinauric’s (RS)
- The first generation had human-like appearance but a flawed pair
of legs which eventually will give out, resulting in their eventual
death. (RS)
- Latenna The Albinauric is one (RS)
- Rides wolves to get around (RS)
- Lobo is her wolf companion (RS)
- Captured and later interrogated for the Haligtree
Medallion’s location and her wolf Lobo is killed in
the process. (RS)
- Phillia the Giant Albinauric woman in the snowy north’s
Apostate Derelict is another. (RS)
- Latenna is trying to get back to her where they
share their homeland. (RS)
- To give her a “birthing droplet” to create life
so that the Albinauric people have a future
(RS)
- The second generation are created as fish/frog people.
- Shorter creatures, with smooth gray skin and dumpy heads
resembling those of frogs.
- Able to walk and even cartwheel
- The village of the Albinauric’s is slaughtered by the now tarnished
Ancient Lord Ensha, the Soulless King, who is trying to find the
medallion of the Haligtree.
- He wants to get to where Miquella’s Haligtree is for
unknown reasons.
- Works for Sir Gideon Ofnir at the Roundtable Hold as their

goals align.
- Sir Gideon wants to kill the other demi-gods, but
doesn’t want nor thinks that a tarnished can kill a
god and become Elden Lord.
- Latenna says an “all-hearing brute”,
most-likely Gideon the All-knowing, is who
took Lobo away from her.
- Ensha invades and attempts to kill the tarnished
player in the Roundtable Hold to steal the Haligtree
medallion, one acquired.
- There was an ancient lord called The Soulless King. (RS)
- Alias: Ensha. (RS)
- Was lord of the lost and desperate. (RS)
- Slaughtered the town of the Albinaurics and tortures Latenna The Albinauric and
kills her wolf companion Lobo.
- Albus Albinauric successfully hides the secret medallion of the Haligtree
from Ensha by casting an illusion to look like a clay pot
- Attempts to steal the medallion from the player Tarnished
- Miquella’s Haligtree
- “Halig” is from “hailag” meaning holy or bringing health.
- So a “Holy health bringing tree” or “Holy Healing Tree” for short
- It was created by Miquella to allow him to escape his curse of an immortal child's
body by allowing him to grow older, as well as to heal his sister Malenia’s curse
of scarlet rot in her body.
- Miquella was kidnapped by Mogue while his body was cocooned.
Miquella’s sister Malenia awaits her brothers return at the Haligtree after
her draw/stalemate with Radon.
Timeline Synopsis:
You play a nobody character who, like his fellow banished tarnished, died in a land outside the Lands Between
and was brought back as promised by the current Queen of the Lands Between, Markia. Marika, a vessel for
the Elden Ring, was chosen by a Eldritch-like Outer God called the Greater Will by sending the Elden Beast,
which becomes the Elden Ring, to the Lands Between of which parasites the Great Tree into becoming the
Erdtree. With the power she's gained; Marika wages war against the previous powers being Giants, Dragons,
Beastmen, other humans, etc and after winning she decides to remove the Rune of Death thus sealing
Destined Death from the world and beginning the "Golden Order". Later in what most-likely was a plot by her
against the Greater Will, Markia shatters the Elden Ring and her male-half Radagon tried to repair it. Ranni's
plot to not be eventually controlled by the Greater Will goes into play as she gets the Black Knives to steal a
fragment of the Rune of Death from Marikas trusted guardian Maliketh, who has the Rune of Death sealed in
his blade, and she inscribes its power to their black knives. As Godwin, Marika and Godfrey's son, is
assassinated by the Black Knives, Ranni kills herself with a black knife as well at the same time. This act "kills"
Godwin's soul but leaves his body, and kills Ranni's body but leaves her soul free. With these previous acts the
demigods/descendents of Marika/Radagon take the Great Runes that make up the now Broken Elden Ring
and begin to war with one another over being the successor to rule the Lands Between. The strongest
Demigod Radahn with his powerful gravity sorcery freezes the stars in the sky completely stalling Ranni’s plot.
The war ends in a standstill, Melenia ends up unconscious and brought to her twin brother’s Haligtree, that he
was creating before being kidnapped by Mohg, and awaits his return. Radahn ends up poisoned with scarlet
rot from Melenia and goes mad on the battlefield. Godrick, a descendant in the Golden Lineage leading back to
Godwin and Godfrey hides in stormveil castle with his Great Rune gaining strength through grafting. Rennala
in her despair of her husband Radagon leaving her to become Marika's second husband, after Godfrey was
banished as the first tarnished, locked herself away in her Academy with the Great Rune of the Unborn given
to her by Radagon. The Lands Between stagnates and now you arrive to tell your story. Will you go through the
motions to mend, in a number of ways, the Elden Ring and become the Lord in the Age of Fracture? Or will
you join Ranni, as her eventual consort, in her quest to usurp the Greater Will influence and become a
goddess thus ushering in a new Era of the Stars? Unlike Marikia who took direct actions in the world with her
power, Ranni would leave the lands between with her order so that people can live without an ever-present
god-like ruler. Or will you become a Lord of the Frenzy Flame that desires for all life to become one again like it
was in the time before individual life was created thus deciding that life isn't worth holding onto in this broken
world anymore. The choice is yours.
Full Timeline:
(bullet points in chronological order and sub-points are just extra info)
The Age of the Gods

- The creation of the universe is unexplained
- Planets/moons and other stars exist including asteroids/meteors (RS)
- This suggests that the creation of physical matter is separate from the creation of life.
(RS)
- All life was once blended together in the primordial crucible. This is probably the original era
before the Erdtree and the dragons we can refer to here as The Age of the Gods. (RS)
- Ancient Dragons possibly existed before life was created.
- Celestial entities like the Astels possibly existed before life was created
- They are considered to be “malformed stars” (RS)
- Elden Beast was sent on a “star” to the Lands Between (RS)
The Age of the Crucible
Individual Life is Created

- The One Great created life from that primordial crucible, ending the Age of the Gods and
starting an Age of the Crucible. However this creation of life through a mistake of The Greater
Will introduced despair/torment/sin/etc.
- Hyetta’s dialogue about the flame of frenzy describes the Greater Wills actions in this. Keep in
mind “The One Great” is most-likely an not an alias for “The Greater Will” thus they are separate
entities.
- Beastmen evolved from lesser dragon species and maintained their beast-like origins. (Similar
to how IRL humans and great apes exist together today)
- Humans also evolved from a common ancestor of Beastmen
- At first worshiped the dragons with the beastmen and considered the traits of the
beastmen to be considered a sign of divinity. Later considered disgusting and
“devolutionary” under the teaching/worshiping of the Golden Order.
- Are born with aspects of beasts in some circumstances.
- Giants, Trolls, Stormhawks, and other animals also exist at this point or evolve through a long
period of time.
The Elden Ring Arrives

- The Greater Will sends a meteor/”star” to the Lands Between containing the Elden beast that
becomes the Elden Ring and parasitizes the Great Tree for the coming Erdtree.
- This later grows the Erdtree over the vestige of the Great Tree that was there previously.
- It being sent long before the Erdtree is “grown”/”born” is supported by a few points
- Item description states the Erdtree is “born” just before the war against the giants, but
Markia and the golden order are created before that point meaning the Elden Ring
existed previous as well.
- Environmental Detail of Farum Azula sanctuary has the depiction of the Elden Ring
carved in stone with what is most-likely is the great tree’s roots behind it.
- This would place the Elden Ring arriving in the time period before the floating
sanctuary was created, which is the time of Placidusax as the Elden Lord.
The Dragons
- Dragon species ruled this era: Ancient-Dragons with 4 legs & 4 wings, Wyverns/Dragons with
2 legs & 2 wings, Wyrms with 4 legs & 2 wings, and serpents with 0 legs & 0 wings existed in
this timeframe and ruled over the lands with the beastmen and humans who worshiped them.
(RS)
- Dragon species have stone scales (gravel stone) and their hearts also have these stones on
them. (RS)
- Ancient dragons are immortal, while the rest of the species are mortal (RS)
- It’s said their Gravel Stone scales are thought to be the source of their immortality. (RS)
- Ancient Dragon’s can take a human form and properly communicate with them. (RS)
- Dragons took human forms to run a dragon cult religion. (RS)
- Beast-men and Humans alike were members.
- Wyrms aren't “dragons” at all. (Magma Breath)
- They are those who have performed the Dragon Communion and found their
humanity/original-form/soul slowly slipping away.
- Fully succumbing to their fate they become Wyrms that crawl the earth.
- Ancient Troll warrior Theodorix is an example.
- Hero of the War against the Giants.
- Became the Great Wyrm Theodorix through Dragon Communion
incantations.
- Those that perpetuate Dragon Communion are called the “dragon-hearted”.

- Ice Dragons were once lords of the mountaintops in the Early Era of Dragons.
- Defeated by the Fire Giants and chased from the peak.
- Ice Dragon Borealis is found at a frozen lake not near the peak.
- Known Ancient-Dragons:
- Unnamed Ancient Dragons of Farum Azula. (RS)
- 2 Dead Ancient Dragons of the Dragon Communion Temples. (RS)
- Ancient Dragon Fortissax
- Godwin the Golden defeats and befriends Fortissax in the war against the
Dragons. (RS)
- Later becomes a litchdragon after becoming corrupted by the death it fights off in
Godwin’s decaying body after he is assassinated and buried in the Great Tree’s
roots in the Deeproot Depths. (RS)
- Ancient Dragon Lansseax. (RS)
- Alias: Mightiest Boulderstone. (RS)
- Sister of Fortissax. (RS)
- Took human form as a priestess of the ancient dragon cult. (RS)
- Of all her knights, she loved Vyke the Dragonspear the most. (RS)
- Alias: Vyke, Knight of the Roundtable Hold and Festering Fingerprint
Vyke. (RS)
- An eventual tarnished who was the closest to becoming Elden Lord. (RS)
- Is lured by Shabriri to become a candidate of the Flame of Frenzy.
Without announcement he traveled below the capital and was
scorched by the 3 fingers and thus became a follower of frenzy.
(RS)
- Gets imprisoned within an Evergaol for becoming seduced
by frenzy. (RS)
- His Finger Maiden is the dead one in the church of inhibition.
- Vyke invades there. (RS)
- Most-likely killed or held hostage by Shibiri
- Great Ancient Dragon Gransax
- Welded the full sized Bolt of Gransax found stuck in Leyndell, the Royal Capital.
(RS)
- Started the war of the dragons by raining calamity upon the Royal Capital enough
so to cause Lenyndell’s walls to fall. (RS)
- Triggers the Tree Sentinels to make weapons from Ancient dragon’s
claws so they can defend the Erdtree with dragon lightning “Fight fire with
Fire”. Thus making Draconic Tree Sentinels. (RS)
- Dragonlord Placidusax
- Alias: Dragon King (RS)
- Originally a 4 headed dragon (as seen from the old lord talisman). Lost 2 of its
heads and has a lot of visible golden-like holy damage when the player finds it.
(RS)
- His spewing of the golden breath lazer is is dying wails (“Placidusax’s

Ruin”) (RS)
- Previous Elden Lord before the Erdtree and Golden Order (RS)
- Is able to use a red lightning version/representation of Gransax’s Weapon to
cause a huge explosion. (RS)
- “Once his god was fled, he continued to await its return.”
- Most-likely the dragon god was forced to flee, most-likely in a battle with
the Greater-Will/Radagon that harmed Placidusax and subjugated the
remaining dragon species and forced a retreat.
- Ancient Dragon’s have the ability to manipulate time to a degree.
- Placidusax possibly created the Storm beyond time
- Enshrined in Farum Azula, a flying mausoleum or sanctuary, populated and
worshiped by beastmen given the power of lightning by the dragons. (RS)
- “Sanctuary Stones”, and the associated giant ruins, have fallen from
Azula onto the Lands Between. (RS)
- Farum Azula has been in different locations over time. Most-likely
originally over where the Lindal Royal Capital is. Then moved south as it
crumbled dropping ruins and golems. (RS)
- Smithing stones of higher grade are mined closer to that location
(and where the Erdtree is located).
- Ancient Dragon SS’s “lightly twists time” and can produce
weapons “capable of slaying a god”. (RS)
- Are made from Ancient Dragon’s scales (RS)
- Most fallen ruins are located around Stormveil Castle and
Limgrave, suggesting it spent a majority of its time there.
The Empire of Farum Azula

- An empire by and worshiping Dragons creates Farum Azula. A floating sanctuary. This empire
is mostly beastmen and dragons, but also humans. (RS)
- Demi-human traits are considered more devine as they have aspects more similar to that of
dragons, thus humans would be considered potentially lesser.
- Possibly what leads to the eventual antagonism/disdain and bias against demi-humans
later during the Erdtree era by humans.
- Stone Golems were a product of the civilization of Farm Azula. (RS)
- Later fall from the flying sanctuary as it crumbles in ruins. (RS)
- Proven by the stone golems stuck in the ground in numerous locations, even
partially damaged from the fall. (RS)
- The Farum Azula sanctuary’s main room displays a depiction of the Elden Ring in front of what
appears to be a depiction of the Great Tree’s roots. Below it is most-likely a dragon cult
priestess with three wolves around her.
- This would most-likely suggest that this is a recognition of the worship/inclusion of the
Elden Ring in the time of the Dragons before the Golden Order and Erdtree came to
power.
- This further suggests and solidifies Placidusax as the truly first Elden Lord and that this
priestess was possibly the vessel of the Elden Ring of whom Placidusax was the consort
to.
- As dragons can take human forms she could be a dragon or a human race.
- She is possibly Torrent’s former master.
- This is supported by the connection that the three wolves that surround
her statue could be the same as the ones given as ash’s alongside the
Spirit Calling bell that Ranni gives us from Torrent’s former master.
Death and Ghostfire

- During this Era the dead are burned into ghostflame which the Death Rite Birds tend to the
flames and “rake out the ashen remains”. (RS)
- They are considered “graveyard fire keepers”. (RS)
- There is a religion/priesthood that worships and guards the Death Rite Birds which serves as an
oath to their eventual resurrection through ghostflame ash. (RS)
- This is where the ash summons come from that are used by the player Tarnished. It’s the soul(s)
of one(s) who have passed on but not “returned”/taken by the Erdtree.
- This practice is eventually halted/slowed by the removal of destined death from the world and
the death of the order of priests guarding them, but becoming ash isn’t prevented. In fact the
Deathbirds continue to burn those it finds with ghostfire and collect their ash preventing them
from returning to the Erdtree.
- Deathbirds are often found near where Tibia Mariner’s are located or old battlefields
where undead may be found.
- Others are also able to voluntarily become spirit ash (RS)
Mausoleums are Created

- Giant walking Mausoleums are created to house the demigods of this age. (ML)
- Possibly they are unnamed demigods of Marika or Radagon who died after Godwin as he’s
known as the first of the dead demigods, at least after the rune of death was sealed. (IP)
- The ones laid to rest are described as “soulless demigods”. (RS)
- Soulless could be what it truly means to die in the era before Marika sealed the Rune of
Death from the Elden Ring.
Limgrave and Liurnia

- Stormveil is the land/hill of the Stormhawks.
- There is no castle.
- The Stormhawk King rules Stormveil.
- Alias: The Storm Lord.
- It is an ancient monarch that later died to Godfrey and was burned with ghostfire turning.
it into a spirit ash. Yet is too proud to answer anyone’s summons. (RS)
- Most-likely implies that he lived and died during the Era of the Crucible.
- He is revered by all others at the time as a sovereign (a supreme ruler). (RS)
- Stormhawk Deenh is one of those other Stormhawks. (RS)
- He faithfully rendered lifelong service to the old king of Stormveil (The Stormhawk King).
(RS)
- Became an ash spirit by ghostfire. (RS)
- Queen Rennala as a young astrologer chases after the falling stars at night then comes into
contact becomes enlightened by the Full Moon and creates Moon Sorcery then later becomes
Queen of the Carian Kingdom in Liurnia of the Lakes. (RS)
- Astronomers create stone half bowl-shaped sundials and place them in high locations around
the Lands Between.
- Possibly to know the time of day while studying the sky.
- Invented by astronomers in IRL, thus it makes sense for the astronomers of the Lands Between
to do so as well.
- Possibly to mark the locations, by pointing towards them, of where falling stars have landed.
- Supported by a number of them pointing towards where falling star beasts are or other
such meteorite landings.
The Numen/Nox People

- The Numen people immigrate to Leyndell region of the Lands Between from an outside land.
(RS)
- They left their lands for unknown reasons. (RS)
- Supposed descendants of denizens of another world. (RS)
- Long lived but a very low birth rate. (RS)
- Are led by Markia. (RS)
- Are Skilled warriors/assassins. (RS)
- They eventually rise up to the top of the hegemony in the Lands Between with Markia as
Queen. (RS)
- The Black Knives are all numen women with close ties to Markia. (RS)
- Later on most of the people are punished by Queen Marika by being banished to the Eternal
Cities underground and becoming the Nox people.
- The exact reason they earned the ire of the Greater Will is unknown.
- Proven by Zulie’s data mining on Twitter here that the Numen are the Nox.
- “Nox NPCs and Silver Tears are called
MarikaLineageMan/MarikaLineageWoman and MarikaLineageSlime in their AI.”
- Black Knives are women assassin’s who are Numen women, same as Marika.
- Black Knives are said to be assassins from the Eternal Cities by Rogier.
- Therefore the Nox are Numen who are banished to live underground.
- Most-likely the “Gloam-Eyed Queen” is of the Numen/Nox people.
- Being a numen/nox must be a quality that makes one able to become an Empyrean as
the only known ones are either Numen or descendants of them.
- Ranni states that of the Demi-gods only she and her two half-siblings Miquella and
Malenia can lay claim to being Empyrans.
- Since The Gloam-Eyed Queen along with Markia are Empyrans, the Gloam-Eyed
Queen can’t be a demi-god child of Markia/Radagon by Ranni’s statements.
- This only leaves another member of the Numen people to be the

Gloam-Eyed Queen or Ranni herself.
- She and the Black Knives must have had a falling out at some point for them to be
against her later on.
The Age of the Erdtree
Marika Becomes Queen

- The Greater Will chooses Marika as its envoy and vessel of the elden ring. (RS)
- Marika, an empeyron of the Numan people rises up as the Queen of Leyndell with The Greater
Will’s help. (RS)
- Queen Marika is gifted Maliketh, a half-wolf demi-human, by the Two Fingers as a half-brother
to keep a watch over her as a shadow. (RS)
- Also spy on her and go mad and kill her if she betrays the fingers/Greater Will. (RS)
- The Royal Capital of Lyndell comes to power.
- Individual magical prisons are created or “Evergaols” (pronounced: Ever-Jails) across the
Lands Between.
- They are seemingly meant to imprison someone forever as a jail. Though if killed within one,
they can die, and it is possible to escape.
- Blaid is placed into one by Ijji and subsequently gets out on his own or by the player’s
help.
- The bloodhound who Blaid wants to kill is in one.
- The other inhabitants are quite strange
- The “Abnormal Stone Clusters” seem to guard the Evergaols and perhaps are sentries for the
Evergaols but also are located near graveyards or other obscure/important paths
- Queen Marika has a child we know of as Melina.
- Alias: “Kindling Maiden” (RS)
- Most-likely fathered by Radagon.
- Is not considered an empyrean by Ranni. (RS)
- Possible but unlikely that Melina is Ranni’s other half. As Marika and Radagon are two
personalities from the same being, Melina and Ranni could be in the same situation.
- This would mean that Melina was born at the same time as Ranni and that Melina
weirdly considers her mother to be Marika of whom is technically also her other mother
via her father Radagon’s female half.
- She was born at the base of the Erdtree and given a purpose from her mother Queen Marika
that she later claims to have forgotten. (RS)
- Melina claims her mother is inside the Erdtree, meaning Queen Marika is her mother.
(RS)
- Most-likely that purpose is to burn the Erdtree to bring about a new age.
- If Melina and Ranni are the same being, then this means that Rennala is either the
adoptive mother of Ranni or both Marika and Rannala are considered mothers due to
Markia and Radagon being the same entity.
- She was possibly born in secret from Radagon. (RS)
- Most-likely losing some faith in the Greater Will by this point and knowing Radagon is
fully on the side of the Greater Will Melina would be kept in secret. (RS)
- She has red/gold hair, a trademark of children of Radagon and that of Marika.
- Melina has the same moveset as The Black Knife Assassins, and possibly was trained by them
or had some other connection with them as they are all Numen women as she is.
- At some point Melina’s body was burned and she was left a spirit with no body. (RS)
- Possible connection to being the Gloam-Eyed Queen as Maliketh who defeated her and
her Godskin Apostles and took the violet eye (Beast Eye) of, which Melina’s closed eye
is also violet could have been burned by him when she was defeated.
The Eternal Cities

- The Numen people piss off the Greater Will and earn its ire.
- Queen Marika banishes her people (Numen) to live in underground cities and they then take
on the new name of Nox.
- The “Eternal Cities” of Nokron, Nokstella, and the third unnamed eternal city located at the
Deeproot Depths are created.
- The eternal city created the Finger Slayer Blade during the Age of the Erdtree. (RS)
- Said to be created from a body. (RS)
- A blood-drenched fetish is proof of the high treason committed by the Eternal City
against the Golden Order and the Greater Will. (RS)
- Capable of killing/hurting the Fingers and Outer Gods like The Greater Will. (RS)
- Looks like a withered version of the Sacred Relic Weapon wielded by the Elden Beast.
(RS)
- Attempted to create a fake lord via the Mimic/Silver tears. (RS)
- Cut content about a silver tear NPC mimic called Asimi that eventually becomes your
copy and states that it would have become the “lord eternal”. (Video)
- Killing it at the end of the questline would have rewarded the Mimic Tear.
- They worship the concept of a “Lord of the Night”. (RS)
- Possibly this would be equivalent to the player tarnished getting the Age of the
Stars ending would be becoming the “Lord of the Night”.
- Created the Dragonkin Soldiers. (RS)
- Are fake imitations of natural Dragons. (RS)
- Didn’t gain immortality and perished as decrepit, pale imitations of their skyborn
kin. (RS)
- Gave them Dragonscale Blades and Dragon Halberds. (RS)
- The Black Knife Assassins group is created from the Numen/Nox people banished by Queen
Marika
- All members a women of the Numen tribe of people
- Leader Alecto is the ringleader
- Later imprisoned in an Evergaol for her crimes against the Golden Order
- Tiche is the daughter of Alecto
- The person who personally killed Godwin, the Golden
- Dies while retreating from Leyndell and protecting her mother Alecto
- Later is an Ash summon gained from defeating her mother in the Evergaol
- This means Alecto recovered her daughter’s body and gave her a
ghostfire ceremony.
Wars Against Liurnia

- Queen Marika’s male half Radagon goes to subjugate the other regions of the Lands Between
starting with Liurnia of the Lakes. (RS)
- Two wars between Leyndell and Liurnia are fought. Liurnia succeeds in fending off both attacks.
(“Greatsword Monument”) (RS)
- Radagon stops his second war against the region of Liurnia after falling in love with Queen
Rennala on the battlefield and becomes her husband. (RS)
- This is most-likely part of a plot by Queen Marika to get Liurnia under control of the
Leyndell as a political marriage as they were not winning with force. (RS)
- Possible that Radagon never truly loved Rennala, as he was the other half to Marika,
unknown to all others as a well kept secret.
- Carian Royal knights are also bad ass Magic Swordsmen who kicked ass (“Carian Royal Knight
weapons”) (RS)
- Numbering fewer than 20, their sorcery made them a match for even champions of gold.
(RS)
- Radagon and Rennala have their children: Lunar Princess Ranni (Ranni the witch), Radahn
the Starscourge, Praetor Rykard, a princess Renna who’s fate we do not know, and another
unnamed princess whose name nor fate we also don’t know. (RS)
- Most-likely the older and the other unknown princess died an untimely death.
- The “three sisters towers” supports this as each daughter received a tower. (RS)
- Preceptor Seluvis was bequeathed the unnamed sisters tower. (RS)
- Renna’s tower was left alone, protected by Ranni’s barrer. (RS)
- Ranni is still the master of her tower. (RS)
- Possible that Chelona’s Rise indicates another family member of Rennala named Chelona.
- Most-likely not a sister.
- Possibly a mother or sister of Rennala.
- The name Chelona is of Greek origin and means "Turtle".
- Interesting connection as the riddle to unlock the tower involves finding 3 turtles.
- Ranni meet’s her cold magic teacher, an unnamed ice witch that resembles the doll Ranni later
resides in, in the woods when she’s young. (RS)
- Taught the young Ranni to fear the dark moon as she imparted her cold sorcery. (RS)
- Possibly from the Town of Zamor in the cold north mountains. (RS)
- Possibly a first generation Albinauric
- Then possibly the owner of the Tower named “Albinauric’s Rise”
- Would explain why Ranni, a princess of the Raya Lucaria sorcerers who looked
down upon the man-made Albinauric’s would have to meet her in secret.
- Radahn, in looking up to the heroics of his father Radagon, trains to become a knight. (RS)
- Later in his youth learns and masters gravity magic in Selia the Town of Sorcery from a master
of gravity magic, and “Alabaster Lord”, so that he can continue to ride his favorite horse despite
continuing to vastly outgrow it. (RS)
- Alabaster Lords or “Onix Lords” who had skin of stone, and were called lords in
reverential fear of their destructive power with gravity magic. (RS)
- Risen to life when a meteor struck long ago. (RS)
- Has pride in his red hair that he shared with his father. (RS)

- Is an Albinaruric, unable to walk.
- More here!
- He is later bequeathed one of the three sister’s towers as a personal study. (RS)
The “First” Elden Lord

- Godfrey becomes Marika’s consort and is dubbed the first elden lord, though in reality is
second to the Dragonlord. (RS)
- Queen Marika and Godfrey have their first born son Godwin the Golden. (RS)
- Later they have their other two children: Morgott, the Omen King and Mohg, Lord of Blood. (RS)
- Mohg, lord of blood is born with the accursed blood in his body that is later awakened as
he chooses to serve The Formless Mother outer god. (RS)
- Makes a dynasty in a land away from the Lands Between. (RS)
- Both twin brothers are born with horns, which is a sign of bad omens, and they
ostracized and are imprisoned for eternity underground. (RS)
- Normally, as omen born, they would have their horns cut off however as royalty
they are rather imprisoned underground and hidden from everyone else.
War Against Limgrave
The Battle of Stormveil

- Godfrey leads Leyndell’s armies in Radagon’s stead to continue the conquest he started and
grow the empire’s influence. (RS)

- More info here
War of the Demi-humans
War Against Caelid

- Godfrey’s army fights and then takes over all of Caelid. (RS)
- More Info Here
- Godwin the Golden fathers descendant(s) with an unknown number of partners. (RS)
- This continues the line of generations known as the Golden Lineage. (RS)
Time in Peace
- Some time now has passed with relative peace, enough for Godfrey’s knights to feel like
Limgrave and Stormveil is a homeland at the very least and the Golden Order is now the de
facto Order of the land and followed by many.
- Stormhawk Axe insinuates that the warriors of Stormveil traveled to the royal capital and then to
castle sol in the frozen north. (RS)
- This indicates that Godfrey’s warriors had made a home in Limgrave and Stormveil for
some time before being sent to fight the war against the Giants. (RS)
- Notable exceptions are the Giants, Dragons, Demi-humans, and Prator Rykard. (RS)
- Godrick the Golden is born as a descendant of Godwin. (RS)
- Relative, and possibly cousin or brother, of Godefroy. (RS)
- Later resorts to grafting to gain power becoming Godrick, the Grafted. (RS)
- Was later lord of Stormveil Castle and then defeated by the player tarnished. (RS)
- Godefroy the Golden is born as a descendant of Godwin. (RS)
- Relative, and possibly cousin or brother, of Godrick. (RS)
- Later resorts to grafting to gain power becoming Godefroy, the Grafted. (RS)
- Was later part of an assault on Leyndell the Royal Capital. (RS)
- The Erdtree grows (“is born”) out of the primal energies of the primordial crucible and through
the Erdtree burials it gets the life-energy/souls of strong individuals. (Source)
- Its “birth” is supported by Item Name Here that states the Erdtree was born just before the war
against the Giants.
- Through the power of the energy gathered by the Erdtree Marika is able to channel it to give
and remove “grace” from individuals as she sees fit. (RS)
- “Grace” is seemingly a buff, enhancement, or guidance/purpose. And is powered by the
primordial life energy of the crucible spread throughout all life. (RS)
- Later during the story of the game, enemies' eyes glow with temporary grace returned to
them as the Erdtree’s powers are waning.
- Prator Rykard comes across the magma of Mt. Gelmir.
- He experiments with turning the magma into a source of magic.
- Discovers the ancient deity named Eiglay, the Serpent lurking inside the lava of the mountain.
- Rykard and Tanith are enticed because of Eiglay to form the Volcano Manor in Eiglay’s honor.
- They gave ritualistic sacrifices to the Eiglay to satiate its lust for blood and growth as it
absorbs and integrates what it consumes.
- Rykard becomes convinced to sacrifice his blood and body with Eiglay to merge with it and
takes it over with his own consciousness through force of will and strong influence and thus
accepting his path as the Lord of Blasphemy.
- Tanith loves him even more at this point and is completely devoted to him.
- As such she lures in tarnished to feed to him to grow his “family”
- The secret society called the Roundtable Hold is created and is based out of a manor located
in the Lyndell Royal Capital in opposition to Marika and her Golden Order.
- The physical location is a manor in the Royal Capital and can be visited, though it’s in ruin, and
has traces of similarities of those that might have been there previously.
- When the Erdtree is set on fire the Roundtable also ignites
- The two fingers are hosted though later can be killed without anything else happening to the
Roundtable
- It’s most-likely an illusionary space that’s apart of the Erdtree created by Markia, as a
replacement for the one she destroyed that was previously against her, to control the tarnished
and other forces that might conspire against her.
War of the Giants

- The Greater Will wanting to remove other outer god’s influence gets the Golden Order to war
against other regions of the “Lands Between”.
- Godfrey wins a war massacring the fire giants of the north. (RS)
- The Town of Zamor and it's cold sorcery/weapon wielding warriors joined the fight against the
Giants as they were mortal enemies. (RS)
- The fire giants worshiped and gained powers from the Unnamed Outer God of Fire. (RS)
- It’s most-likely that from the frozen dead giants in the north that at least a large number of them
died due to the death blight curse from the Rune of Death.
- Possibly from the traitors turned Godskins.
- Most-likely from the Leyndell Royal Capital’s side wielding its power.
- The Giants cursed Radagon. (RS)
- The curse most-likely resulted in his red hair.
- He hated his red hair as it reminded him of the Fire Giants. (RS)
- In realizing that the giants flame would never extinguish Queen Markia cursed the last
remaining Fire Giant to tend the flame for all eternity. (RS)
- “Giant’s Fire” Worshiper Monk Amon flees out of cowardice by swearing fealty to the
god-slaying black flame. Along with other giant’s fire monks they join the Godskin Apostles and
Nobles as Blackflame Monks. (RS)
- The Godskin Apostles are lead by the “Gloam-Eyed Queen”. (RS)
- The Gloam-Eyed Queen was an Empyrean chosen by the fingers. (RS)
- Possibly Melina is The Gloam-Eyed Queen
- “Gloam” means twilight/ as in the time just after sunset. (RS)
- Melina has one eye closed/sealed then opened at the dawn of the
new age.
- It’s purple/violet, like sunsets can get during twilight. (RS)

- Maliketh, the one who defeated and most-likely killed the
Gloam-Eyed Queen when he defeated the Godskins has
the “Beast Eye” which is also violet and is “claw marked”
as if he took it from her with his claws.
- Says she will kill the player in the Lord of Frenzy Flame ending “as
sure as night follows day” which would be like Twilight.
- Torrent’s ring is destroyed and is heard whistling as Melina
approaches it in the extra cutscene of the frenzy flame
ending. (RS)
- Her normal eye is scared and has cataracts from the flame
of frenzy fire burning the world and grace being gone in
general.
- Her hair darkening and her sealed eye opening suggests
that she merged back with Ranni if they are the same
entity with different personalities.
- Is focused on Destined Death. (RS)
- The Godskin Apostles also utilize the black flame incantations from the
Rune of Death. (RS)
- Melina is stated to be an Empyrean (but has no body to become the
vessel of the Elden Ring)
- Melina’s goal just like that of the Godskins and the Black Knives is to kill
the demi-gods / gods
- Melina is directly in contact/connection/accord with Ranni who plotted to
kill Godwin and ultimately remove the influence of the Greater Will and
the other Outer Gods from the Lands Between
- Ranni’s spirit face and Melina’s face match up perfectly along with
their crow eye marks, such that there must be some connection
between the two. Possibly that they are the same person with
separated personalities or made a contract with one another.
War of the Dragons

- Seeing the warmongering of Leyndell the Dragons initiate a preemptive attack upon the Royal
Capital of Leyndell starting the war between the two.
- Gransax rains calamity upon the Royal Capital in the initial attack, the first time its walls had
fallen/breached.
- Wielding the true and giant Bolt of Gransax.
- The giant unmoving stone dragon with the giant Bolt of Gransax found the game’s
Leyndell capital is the actual, now long dead, Gransax and its weapon
- Supported by all the destruction where his body interacts with the area/s and
buildings where he is including the weapon description found at Gransax’s
weapon.
- All the damage wouldn’t be there if it was merely a stone statue made to
commemorate the victory over Gransax and his weapon. The placement is also
very poor for a statue of it and its weapon.
- Triggers the Tree Sentinels to start learning how to utilize dragon lightning to better fight
the dragons and defend the Erdtree.
- Godfrey wins the war against the dragons, but either comes to a draw or leaves many alive.
- Godfrey’s son Godwin the Golden defeats Ancient Dragon Fortissax and the two become good
friends.
- Ranni bests Adula the Glintstone Dragon and it then swears a knightly oath to her Dark Moon.
- Dragons that devourer sorcerers, like Adula, become corrupted by their glintstones.
- The religion/cult of the Ancient Dragons survives the war, but is sparse and mostly destroyed.
- Shown by the fact that virtually no one uses dragon incantations, and the temples of the
cult are in ruins.
- Leyndell might still worship the dragons.
- Godfrey’s knights (Banished Knights) still have the dragon as their helm’s crest
- The Draconic Tree Sentenials make their helm crest a dragon
- Also found in Crumbling Farum Azula
Birth of the Golden Order

- Wanting a world without Destined Death, Queen Marika took the Rune of Death from the Elden
Ring, imbued it to a sword and charged Maliketh with protecting it.
- Marika gains her title of “Queen Marika, the Eternal”
- This is the official birth of the Golden Order
March of the Tarnished

- Godfrey, his knights and descendants are robbed of the grace of the Erdtree and are banished
from the Lands Between by Queen Marika.
- This event is known as “The March of the Tarnished”
- Godfrey becomes the first “Tarnished”
- Godfrey’s knights become known as the “Banished Knights”
- This is supported by the Banished Knight Armor/weapons
- By Queen Marika’s word echos it’s told that after the tarnished die in the world outside of the
Lands Between she will return grace to them that she took and allow them to return to the Lands
Between, wage war, and brandish the Elden Ring.
- Supported by the player tarnished starting off in what amounts to a church on the edge
of the continent after seemingly dying as well as Godfrey returning alongside the
Banished Knights of Godfrey
- Godfrey takes the name “Hoarah Loux” and becomes the chieftain of the Bandland warriors.
- Eventually fathers Nepheli Loux with an unnamed woman
- Nepheli Loux, unaware her father is Godfrey, is left in the care of Sir Gideon Ofnir
who becomes her foster father.
- Queen Marika’s male half Radagon leaves Queen Rennala and returns to become Marika’s
second husband and now the second Elden Lord.
- Radagon gifts Rennala The Rune of the Unborn before leaving.

- Rennala becomes distraught and broken-hearted from Radagon leaving her and the previous
loss of two of her daughters.
- Any Stakes of Marika that would have been in the Raya Lucaria Academy at this point would
have been removed as they are essentially shrines of Queen Marika.
Liurnia’s Civil War

- The Raya Lucaria Academy betrays the Carian Royals and thus a civil war starts as they see
Queen Rennala isn’t fit to rule after Radagon has left her.
- Rennala locks herself up in the Royal Library of the Carian Academy becoming obsessed with
studying the Sorcery of rebirth through the Great Rune of the Unborn she was gifted.
- Marika and Radagon have their two children: Malenia the Severed and her twin brother
Miquella the Unalloyed.
- Malenia is born cursed with the scarlet rot, slowly eating away her body
- Miquella is born cursed with the body of a perpetually young child
- Alias: St. Trina
- Trina’s Lily is a symbol of faith in St. Trina
- Miquella’s Lily, beloved by Miquella, is a faded and wilting Trina’s Lily
- St. Trina’s Torch has carvings depicting St. Trina in “adult form”
- Miquella wanted to gain a “adult” body/form
- Sword of St. Trina states that some say she is a comely young girl, others sure
he is a boy and that for certain their appearance was as sudden as their
disappearance.
- Miquella from the intro cutsceen is rather androgynous, as most young
children bodies are to one another. Especially with long hair.
- Miquella “disappeared” into his cocoon when making the Haligtree and
was subsequently kidnapped by Mohg.
- Both have power of “sleep” or in relation to sleep
- St. Trina had clerics that created a religion involving him
- St. Trina captivated a craftsman who created sleep tools/weapons
- Who continued his search for her(him) in his own sleep
- A cut-content NPC named Rhico is a servant of St. Trina and later reveals that
St. Trina is Miquella.
- Possibly is the captivated craftsman
- Additionally states that Miquella is “dreaming”
- Video source
- “Unalloyed” meaning Pure or complete and unreserved
- Has the natural ability to charm others and resist/block the influence of the Outer Gods,
and can craft tools that block their influence for others. Such as the needles he made to
help his twin sister stave off the scarlet rot she was cursed with from birth by the
Unnamed God of Scarlet Rot.
- Queen Marika openly declares her intent to further investigate and research the Golden Order
and through it the Erdtree and more specifically The Greater Will as a whole while at a Minor
Erdtree.
- Stating that “Those blissful early days of blind belief are long past.”
Ranni’s Plot
- Ranni plots to stave off her eventual influence by The Greater Will in becoming Queen
Marika’s replacement as the Elden Ring’s vessel.
- Plots to steal the rune of death from Maliketh and use it to kill her body, but not her soul by
killing Godwin’s soul but not his body.
- Gains/Creates/Manipulates the Black Knife assassins for her plot and on the Night of the
Black Knives a fragment of the rune of death is stolen from Maliketh
- Includes Prator Rykard in the plot and gives him the Blasphemous Claw to fight Maliketh if
necessary as a last-resort
- It is a slab of rock engraved with the traces of the Rune of Death to deflect the power of
the Black Blade.
- Gets the Eternal Cities to create a weapon able to harm/kill the Two-Fingers or even the Greater
Will itself.
- The Astels, sent by the Greater Will as a punishment from space, used gravity sorcery to pull
meteorites from the void to level the eternal cities and created a fake night sky above them in
their caverns. (RS)
- Most-likely was punished with Astels for creating the Finger Slayer Blade.
- “Astel” means “An arch or ceiling of boards placed above the workers' heads in a mine.”
- This supports that the Astel Naturalborn of the Void is literally what buried the Eternal
Cities underground and became the fake starry night sky above their cities in the
caverns. Source
- An Onyx Lord guards the other Astel “Stars of Darkness” in a snowy cave in the north.
- They are “Malformed Stars”. (RS)
Night of Black Knives

- The Black Knives sneak into Leyndell, the Royal Capital on a cold and foggy night.
- Sorcerer Rogier states that the Night of Black Knives happened long before the
shattering of the Elden Ring.
- The Black Knives steal a fragment of the Rune of Death
- Ranni inscribes knives with the power of the Rune of Death in a ritual thus enhancing the Black
Knife weapons to be capable of killing demigods or possibly Marika herself
- Godwin the Golden is assassinated by the Black Knives at the same time Ranni commits
suicide with a Black Knife
- The death of two demigods at the same time splits the cursemark of death, that was carved at
the moment of death of the first demigod, into two half-wheels one for each.
- Ranni was the first of the demigods whose body died
- Godwin perished in soul alone
- Alecto, Ringleader of the Black Knives, is protected by her daughter Tiche when fleeing the
Royal Capital after the assassination of Godwin the Golden.
- Tiche is the Black Knife that was the one who personally assassinated Godwin
- Tiche’s body is recovered by her mother Alecto and is burned in ghostfire to be turned into a
spirit ash by her mother and kept on her person
- Alecto is eventually imprisoned within an Evergaol
- Ranni having killed her body with the black knife then imparts her now unbound soul to a doll
modeled after her secret ice witch master from when Ranni was younger. Ranni keeps her
dead body at the devine tower of Liurnia, requiring an item to magically reverse gravity/reality
to travel to the top.
- Godwin the Golden’s body gets a Erdtree burial at the base of the Great Tree’s roots directly
below Leyndell, the Royal Capital in the Deeproot Depths.
- Godwin’s body without a soul begins to decay as destined death is stifled from the half of the
Rune of Death in his body that killed his soul, thus he is unable to truly die, and so Godwin’s
body takes a new title as Prince of Death.
- Ancient Dragon Fortissax proceeds to enter it’s friends body to fight against the
encroaching Death within Godwin, but ultimately fails and becomes corrupted by the
Death instead becoming an Ancient litchdragon.
- Through his burial in the roots of the Great Tree the rune of death spreads throughout the Lands
Between through the underground roots and sprouts in the form of Deathroot.
- These deathroot form/create the undead of the Lands Between called “The ones who
live in death” from those that come into contact with it as they cannot truly die.
- The Ulcerated Tree Spirits are created/corrupted by this as well.
- Godwin’s visage appears as a monstrous face below Stormveil Castle where the Great
Tree’s roots are.
- Miquella makes the “Golden Epitaph” straight sword in honor of his brother Godwin’s
sorta-death praying that he “die a true death”.
Assault on Leyndell
- Limgrave sieges Lyndell led by the Golden Lineage’s Godefroy the Grafted. (RS)
- Human soldiers that eventually serve Godrick and Trolls are the main force of the army. (RS)
- Limgrave’s Royal Capitol wins against their attackers. (RS)
- Godefroy is captured by the Ancient Dragon Knight Krisoff during the battle and is later
imprisoned in an Evergaol for his crimes. (RS)
- Possible that this occurred during the war of the Shattering, but most-likely occurred at least
after the Night of Black Knives.
- Miquella and Melenia Head north and Miquella begins to create the Haligtree in an attempt to
cure his eternally child-like body and his twin sister’s blight of Scarlet Rot.
- They realized that to solve their respective curses they couldn’t continue on the path with an
outer god like the Greater Will as they are the sources of their curses.
- Miquella creates the golden needles that can block the influence of outer gods like the one
causing Melenia’s scarlet rot blight. Thus she is now temporarily cured of this ailment.
- From the Statues of Marika located at the Haligtree we can tell that Queen Marika still cared for
her two twin children.
- Some time having passed enough for the Haligtree to significantly grow occurs.
The Shattering
- Queen Marika, disillusioned with the Greater Will, enacts her plan by shattering the Elden
Ring, thus fully and openly betraying the Greater Will.
- By her word echos she’s been investigating the Greater Will and the World Order she’s help set
up and doubts its intentions.
- This suggests that Marika was plotting this for an unknown time ago. (Will look further into this.
Definitely seems like she’s quite the schemer)
- She most-likely removed the grace of and banished Godfrey and his knights to bring them back
as a force against the Greater Will and the Golden Order.
- Though Godfrey and his knights knew not of this scheme
- Maliketh, the Black Blade becomes despondent as Marika’s shadow, therefore controlled by
the Greater Will or the fingers, and feels betrayed by her shattering the Elden Ring and thus
betraying him.
- Radagon attempts to reforge/fix the Elden Ring but fails.

- In his shame, Maliketh the Black Blade became Gurranq and bound his blade to his own flesh,
so none may ever steal the rune again. Doing so caused him to become eternally hungry,
gnawing at the Deathroot that sprouts from the Great Tree.
- Possibly he’s eating the deathroot to also try and collect all of the spreading death to atone for
having it stolen from him. As the golden order was created by binding/sealing destined death.
When defeated after being given all the deathroot he asks for Queen Markia to forgive him that
the Golden Order cannot be restored.

- In his shame and bid for power he turned to the repugnant art of grafting to gain strength.

- Queen Marika becomes sorrowful that Miquella is kidnapped
- War surgeon humans dressed in white surgeon outfits work after the battles taking place
- They served friend and foe alike during the war of the shattering, giving a final strike to put them
out of their misery
- Many are abducted by Mohg, Lord of Blood
- None were able to tame the accursed blood. None but Varré, that is; though he was an
exception.
- Queen Marika is punished by the Greater Will and is nearly destroyed, except for the fact that
as no other empyrian’s exist besides Marika and the other empyrions fit to replace her to be a
vessel for the Elden Ring like Ranni/Miquella/Malenia aren’t able to.
- The Greater Will orders the Elden Beast to punish Marika by trapping her with the bottom arc of
the Elden Ring and skewering her with holy energy spears (Demonstrated with Elden Beast’s
grab attack in game)
- Radagon/The-Erdtree seals the entrance with roots of the Erdtree.
- Malenia fights to a standstill with Radahn at the Battle of Aeonia in Caelid.

A Stagnated and Fractured World

- Melina entrusts the spirit calling bell to her half-sister Ranni stating it to be given to Torrent’s
new master.
- The Finger Maiden destined by the two fingers to guide the player tarnished is killed
- Possibly turned into Seluvis’s puppet, Therolina.
- "A Maiden without a Tarnished. A Tarnished without a Maiden. And yet no guide to bring
them together."
- Most-likely is the dead maiden in the church where the player character spawns at the
beginning of the game.
- Possibly killed by Varre as he is waiting for us to arrive and knows that we are now
“maidless” and wants to lead us down the path to distrust the Two Fingers and become a
furled finger of Mohg, the Lord of Blood by helping us and acting nice.
- Milicient and her sisters are born of Caleid from the scarlet rot More Elaboration Needed
- More Info Here

The Game Begins (WIP)

(The player tarnished choices now affect the outcome of the story, order of events isn’t set)
- ??? WIP
- The player-tarnished(PT) dies outside the Lands Between for reasons unknown.
- PT awakens in the … WIP
- More Info Here
- Rogier the sorcerer travels around Limgrave to uncover secrets and knowledge about the
history of the Lands Between and its inhabitants.
- Is searching for knowledge in Stormveil Castle
- After Godricks defeat his curiosity gets the better of him and he gets death blighted from
the Ulcerated Tree Spirit beneath Stormveil Castle near the vestige of Godwin the Prince
of Death.
- Supported by the red death pool animation showing him getting Death Blighted.
- Is interested in learning about the secrets behind the Shattering and the Black Knife
conspiracy.
- More Info Here
- Sorcerer Sellen and the other primeval glintstone sorcerer master’s bodies end up transformed
as a “Seed of Stars”.
- Most-likely Sellen used Master Azur and Master Lusat’s bodys in an experiment of graven
magic with the primeval current and ended up mutating into a “seeds of stars”.
- Primeval Current is possibly some primal ancient power most-likely separate from the
primal crucible of life but equal in measure. It is dangerous and hard to control.
- Seeds of Stars is when a number of glintstone sorcerers are somehow mutated and
combined together in some huge stone ball capable of using sorcery, but lacking the
intelligence it once had. A horrible existence to end up as.
- Many who became powerful/knowledgeable enough of the primal glintstone sorceries fell prey
to ending up mutated into the “Seeds of Stars”
- Other Sorcerers have apparently either become them accidentally or forcibly as many
can be found throughout the Lands Between.
- More Info Here
- Ranni kills the two fingers after receiving the Finger Slayer Blade to change her fate and
usurps The Greater Will
- <—--WIP—-->
The Age of Fracture (WIP)

- WIP
The Age of the Stars (WIP)

- WIP
- Receives the finger slayer blade and later released from her Baleful Shadow.
- Having nothing further to fear Ranni goes and kills her assigned Two-Fingers at the moon
temple and becomes fully freed of her bonds to the Greater Will.
- The Player Tarnished becomes her consort via the Dark Moon Ring, that she would have given
her consort as an empyrean.
- It was stored with her mother as Ranni believed that her dark path to usurp the Greater
Will and leave the Lands Between with her new order was her responsibility alone.
- It becomes the representation of the dedication, and possibly love considering consorts
are married, gained between the player tarnished and her throughout the game's story
- Ranni gifts the Moonlight Greatsword, a carian queen tradition towards their husband, in return.
- Radagon and the Elden Beast are defeated.
- Ranni takes the Elden Ring, which is of the greater will, and usurps it and creates her
own order contrary to that of Marika’s Golden Order as an Order of the Night Sky.
- Leaves with her new order alongside the player tarnished for 1000 years into space to fulfill her
promise to not be a goddess who intervenes in the world like her mother and the Greater Will
did
The Age of the Frenzy Flame (WIP)

- WIP
Structured Story Points Not Yet Included:

(These are structured story points and discoveries that haven’t been worked into my timeline yet)
- If Ranni orchestrated the assassination of Godwin using the Black Knives, and therefore has
control or some dealing with them, why would they attack and attempt to kill her and her
followers?
- Did she just cut a deal with them to get the fragment Rune of Death and gave them the black
knives etched with the rune of death? An “enemy of my enemy is my friend” kinda situation?
- Why is their ringleader Adula locked in the Evergaol near her moon sanctuary church?
- Ranni moved her 2 fingers from the Devine Tower of Liurnia to the Moon Church?
- Kaiden Sellswords
- Hail from the wintery mountains of the north
- What’s up with Ranni’s finger creature that we find dead at Manus Celus?
- It doesn’t look like the 2 fingers nor really the 3 fingers
- The thing under the Cathedral of Manus Celus looks different from the others :
r/Eldenring
- Ranni explicitly states that each empyrean was chosen by their own Two Fingers.
- So there are multiple 2 fingers, and this one is seemingly unique for some reason
- Most-likely killed with the Finger Slayer Blade.
- Finger Slayer Blade was made from a “body” in Nokron, the Eternal City.
- Was why Nokron was leveled by Astel sent by the Greater Will
- Ancestral Follower beastmen
- Stayed away from the Erdtree
- What is the Flash of Crimson Tears? What is it made of?
- Maidens give two of them to their destined tarnished.
- The Meaning of the Game’s different Endings:
- Age of Fracture
- Age of Frenzied Flame
- Age of Stars
- One incredibly important thing to note about her dialogue relating to the age of stars
ending is entirely mistranslated. In the english script, Ranni states that her age will “be
that of the chill night”, and that she wishes to make the “certainties of sight, touch, faith
and emotion become impossibilities”. However in the Japanese script, Ranni states that
she wishes to take the chill night away, she doesn't say that she wishes to take away
emotions and sensations, but that she wants to take the order away with her into space.
She believes that the world is better off if the order that people live within is not
something physical and tangible that can be seen, touched and believed in, so she will
leave the world with it, making her order and herself things that can not be seen and
worshiped, essentially swearing to not intervene in the Lands Between as its god like
Marika did.
Unstructured Story points and Discoveries Not Yet Included:

(These are more rough story points and discoveries that haven’t been worked into my timeline yet)
Iji had a custom Mirrorhelm made from the Nox people as he was afraid of the ire from the Greater Will through
his involvement with Ranni.
Bernahl was a tarnished that was worthy of becoming a lord, until his finger maiden threw herself into the fire.
Soruce
The Fire of the Giants was stolen and brought to Liurnia by a fugitive
- The Flame Monk’s of the north went after the fugitive who stole it.
The Mausoleums contain soulless demigods
- The ghost at the church of pilgrimage in the weeping peninsula states
- “The mausoleum prowls, cradling the soulless demigod”
- This implies a dead demigod’s body is in there
Ranni is possibly the Gloam-Eyed Queen
Who are the giant skeletons on the giant thrones in the Eternal Cities? Or are they just statues of the Lord of
Night they are waiting for / trying to create?
Boc, the Seamster
- Boc’s mother’s voice is echoed from the clay sculpted demi-human head “Prattling Pate You’re
Beautiful”
- More Info here
Queen Marika
- Queen Marika makes Smithing Master Hewg promise to make a weapon to slay a god (Hewg's dialogue)
- This suggests that the phantom Roundtable Hold was created by Marika to imprison him to make a
god killing weapon
- Hewg can be heard asking for Marika’s forgiveness
Ancient Dragon dead at the church of dragon communion locations
- Statues in these ruins have their heads cut off
- often a sign of disrespect and warning to others against following its teachings
- erase the history
The "dead" of limgrave prayed for the dragons' flames would burn them to ash
- putting them out of their undying misery
Elder Dragon Greyoll is the mother of all "dragons"
- This wouldn't include Ancient Dragons but is about the wyverns
Most of the Dragons flying around crumbling Farum Azula are of the Wyvern variety
Though a few Ancient Dragons are still around
Some enemy's are "mimics" containing a larval tear
- Larval tears were a creation of the eternal cities in attempts to create a lord of the night

- They hunt down and quietly kill their enemies

Performing pyromancy is worthy of banishment from the golden order

- Arghathy
- Adan
The Fell God of Fire lurks within the Fire Giant
The Giants flame is the "Flame of Ruin"
- The Giants were cursed to serve as keepers of the Flame for eternity and their defeat and death to marika
released them from the curse
The Fire Monks' most ancient incantation is Flame, Protect Me.
- Champions of the Erdtree used this pyromancy during the War against the Giants
Miquella, when young, created the incantations "Discus of Light" and "Triple Rings of Light" for his father
Radagon
The Erdtree once flourished with abundance, but is waining as all life does.
Everyone was against the Erdtree then was conquered
There was a First and Second Liurnian War
- During which red-haired Radagon joined the hero's ranks (Barrier of Gold)
There were assassins who served the Roundtable Hold that later went to serve the Two Fingers
-("Assassin's Approach") ("Darkness") ("Shadow Bait")
- Under the two fingers they were charged with eliminating Tarnished who strayed from guidance/grace
- The Assassins were once Tarnished who strayed from guidance, and pursued their duty in the darkness
that's without grace
- Those beguiled by the shadow see within it a hated foe
- Most-likely the Black knife assassins
- The numen people were tarnished
- The black knife armor also has a lingering passive effect of the "Assassin's Approach" on it
- The black knives worked with Ranni and her direction towards "darkness" yet later are against her
and with the 2 fingers
- This suggests that the Roundtable Hold as a concept is very old and was in contradiction to the 2
fingers and the Golden Order
- Perhaps the dream Roundtable Hold in the game is the one hijacked by the 2 fingers and Sir
Offnier Giddeon while the original is the one in the physical capital in ruins.
- This suggests the Roundtable was some sort of secret society of tarnished working in
the shadows against the Golden Order, but were discovered and destroyed
The sealing of Destined Death sealed the true power of the Black Flame, and it could no longer slay gods
In the Age of Dragons, stones were the first weapons of the beasts who gained intelligence
- Most-likely the beastmen
the defilement he was born into ("Bloodboon")
Servants of Rot
- The shrimp people are "abandoned children of the goddess"
- goddess in this context seems to be Malenia, the Severed who was born with the curse/blessing of
the god of scarlet rot

- The "sickness" of the Flame of Frenzy began with him
- The most reviled man in all history

- Loretta is on a long bloody journey to seek out a new place where the Albinauric’s can live in peace.
- By the Silver Tear Shield description it states that it’s merely an untrue rumor that Loretta is an
Albinauric. Source
- She most-likely has some other non-related connection to them and not only doesn’t have
prejudice against them, but wants to help them.
- Originates from the cold north beyond the secret entrance heading towards Miquella's haligtree
- Creates a village in southern Liurnia
- is eventually destroyed for finding the secret medallion to head to Haligtree
