Ranni, and her servants | Boss Designs of Elden Ring #14

Beyond the halls of Raya Lucaria, and past a village reduced to rubble, stands a Manor guarded by the ghosts of dead knights, and things which are alike to spiders, but not alike enough and entirely more horrible.

And beyond that Manor still, there is the lair of a Witch, who stole Death and whose ambition encircles the world, but she herself is only a little doll, in a big hat, and clothes that do not quite fit.

What would a doll do with Death? And what sorts of servants has she found to help her do it?

Elden could have been actually good if it had like 50 bosses that were unique instead repeating the same ones again and again

the elden ring DLC coming out reminded me I've actually had a larger er piece sitting around uncompleted for *checks watch* 5 months so was fun to revisit that a little today hahaha

[kinnoth]

Ok but what if it WAS that miquella was in love with godwyn. Like, godwyn WAS his first choice for elden lord/king consort. But then ranni killed godwyn, so miquella decides to just FUCK UP RANNI'S BROTHER in the worst possible revenge way like "fuck you ranni, you send my eldest brother into an unnatural undeath, I send your eldest brother into an unnatural in death OH AND ALSO I'm gonna steal his true death, I'm going to pluck his soul out of the erdtree and corrupt it, I'm going to shred him of everything you knew and loved about him and make him my mindless puppet, and then I'm going to use him to replace the man you killed in my godawful plan to take over marika's godhood FUCK YOU"

Really like.....makes the "here I abandon my love" thing make more sense in a super fuckin emo teenager shit... Like "wah, my bf is dead I don't even need love anymore better just cut it tf out of my soul"

Really makes siccing malenia on a non-cooperative radahn make more sense too... Like, radahn doesn't want anything to do with miquella but miquella can't find and hurt ranni so he is enacting his revenge against ranni on him instead

Makes the "miquella awaits thee, promised consort" into the threat it reads as

(the last coherent words radahn hears before he goes mad with scarlet rot)

I mean I bet everybody loved godwyn, but I bet miquella looked the most like him. I bet miquella held as a secret envy and admiration in his heart that if he had not been born cursed, if he were allowed to grow up, he would look just like godwyn, he would be just like godwyn, loving and beloved by all. When ranni killed Godwyn, it was like she killed the man miquella, by all rights, should have been.

Or maybe miquella just has an eldest-brother fetish and so when godwyn got taken out, he just jumped down the line to the next eldest brother

Ancestor Spirit | Boss Designs of Elden Ring #9

What does it mean when half the world above worships a corpse-eating tree, demigods use corpses as self-decoration, tombs litter the land and a tribe of ancestor worshipers seem to revere the concept of decay and rot itself? It means we might have a Theme™ on our hands.

Let's discuss.

watching radahn glazers defend the final boss fight with their life is so funny to me because these are the same people who laughed at malenia enjoyers back in the day for saying she’s a good fight

[espace--positif]

consort radahn but make it casual

[galaxywarp]

UM. that mountain has legs and is moving towards me.

[kebriones]

I

I was expecting something a little better from the elden ring dlc story, in regards to miquella. This wasn't satisfying.

[vaguely-concerned]

ah. ok. so from what I'm seeing from some shadow of the erdtree spoilers, fromsoft has doubled down on some incredibly troubling tropes that were already present in the main game and that they really should know better than to employ this way. there's some really ugly history attached to the themes and ideas they're presenting here, and playing it this straight is both irresponsible and annoying. disappointing at best, objectively not funny.

the fact that they decided to publish this dlc during pride month, though? fucking hysterical
