Reducing Those Who Live in Death and Fia’s story to an analogue of the zombie apocalypse isn’t, like, the most egregious take ever. But I think it’s the most unsatisfying one.

Firstly, death is already messed up in the Lands Between. Marika excised Death to make herself and her children immortal, and make all souls reborn via the Erdtree. By the time of the Shattering, death has become even more twisted. Lots of people don’t meet natural ends. They literally become rotting, shambling corpses unable to die. But they are not TWLID.

TWLID I believe are specifically bodies reanimated without souls. And True Death in the Lands Between requires the death of body and soul. So I do agree this is unideal to society at large, because the GO has made true death extremely specific.

But TWLID are still implied to have a level of sentience. They are Life. The Prince of Death is a being still living. This is undisputed.

And by that token, I wish people would at least consider Fia’s motivations a bit more. And D’s words:

This is not a slight against D, but he is a mouthpiece of the Golden Order faith- a disciple of Maliketh himself. Like maybe we shouldn’t just wholesale agree with the language of a superpower that genocides and enslaves the ‘undesirables’ of its society? Maybe the narrative is inviting us to be a bit more critical of this ‘exterminate the vermin’ viewpoint.

I’m not saying Fia is the hero and D is the villain. But Elden Ring takes great pains to invite us to consider the humanity in all the peoples of its world. TWLID are no exception.

Hello <3 May I please request headcanons for yandere Fia from Elden Ring?

Contains: character death (not reader), yandere themes, spoilers

By nature as a Baldachin, Fia is enticing. She can easily weave her charm into others, and she certainly will use it on you if she can. Fia is a secretive, manipulative, and clever yandere. But she truly does love her darling, and shows a very maternal and doting side for them.

Fia is a brainwasher to some degree, and she'll attempt to manipulate you into becoming someone as devoted to Those Who Live in Death as she is. With you by her side, you both could become the guardians of these undead folk. She is even more likely to do this if you despise the undead or are a Golden Fundamentalist. She'll try not to change too much of you, after all, she loves you... But she does need to rewire those unpleasant traits of yours.

Physical touch is her greatest strength. Her hold can grant you respite from the harsh reality of the Lands Between, while your vigor can grant her a speck of power each time, useful for her rebirths. Your warmth is something special, a sort of heat that makes her skin flush. Knowing a piece of you is inside of her, ready to contribute the needed life for her rune, fills her with a delicious heat unlike anything she's had before.

After gaining the other half of the cursed death mark, Fia kills D, and she offers you her hand to take you with her to where Godwyn remains.

If you accept, Fia is happy and gladly takes your hand into hers.

If you refuse, then there's a small frown on her lips before she disappears, her words warning you if you dare attempt to stop her dark path.

It's been a long time since you found Fia once more, sitting next to Godwyn's massive corpse. She admits, she missed you very much, and is happy to see you again, although is wary for a brief moment. Fia tries to reach out to that connection you and her formed in the Roundtable Hold, begging you to see otherwise if you still not find Those Who Live in Death unworthy of existence.

If you're stubborn in your ways, then Fia expresses true disappointment and contempt with you. When you smite her down, her last words are full of sadness and grief, and betrayal of your choice.

But if you accept the undead like Fia does, then she embraces you graciously, her hold tighter and more affectionate than before. She then blesses you with a special Baldachin Blessing, a gift for all you've done for her.

She'll then task you with being the champion of Those Who Live in Death, her champion. Knowing the sacrifice it'll take to make her rune, she kisses you one more time before falling into a deep slumber, which you are then pulled into.

When you emerge from your rest, Fia is dead, leaving her rune behind. In her final moments, she thinks only of you.

Her Elden Lord, lord of the undead...

Holy sheet this artist on Twitter's work is amazing 👏
