ELDEN RING CHARACTERS – THESE ARE THE NPCS DISCOVERED SO FAR

 

Elden Ring may move away from Dark Souls’ favorite recipe by focusing more open-world gameplay including mounted combat but there will still be some characters we encounter as we travel across the Lands Between.

The first gameplay preview video for the title introduced a few of these NPCs and already showed a world full of character.

If past attempts by the developer are any indication, Elden Ring’s characters may not be as straightforward about their intentions. One of the first revealed characters is a friendly talking, walking cauldron that could serve as Dark Souls’ equivalent to a firekeeper. Here is our Elden Ring character list.

Elden Ring Characters List

It is worth noting that we don’t yet know much about Elden Ring’s characters. This isn’t because it takes patience, reading between lines, or scouring the description of random items for details. This gameplay preview was the first serious demonstration of the action RPG’s capabilities and didn’t likely include all NPCs that we’ll encounter in Elden Ring.

Alexander, a.k.a. The Iron Fist

The Tarnished finds a sentient cauldron with functioning feet and arms. It is stuck in the ground when he encounters it. This isn’t something a hit or two of a massive mace can’t fix, and Alexander is “very trained,” making sure his survival.

It remains to be determined if he is the character that holds all the secrets of the universe, or just adds a lighter touch to Elden Ring’s ruins-covered environment. However, there doesn’t seem to be any doubt that he is the ultimate waifu in the game, at least according to this Reddit Thread.

Melina

Melina (or Melena, perhaps) appears to the player when she rests at a Site of Grace. This is likely the game’s equivalent of Dark Souls’ bonfires. Before offering “an agreement,” she refers to Tarnished as “a traveler from beyond the fog.” She was all we knew about her. However, it is hard to shake the feeling that she could be the Lands Between’s firekeeper.

Stormveil Castle Gatekeeper

The Elden Ring character, found in a room just to the left Stormveil Castle’s main gate, advises the Tarnished to not use it when entering the Dungeon. He suggests a safer route which can be accessed via a huge hole in the wall to his left.

He can advise players to ignore him, or signal for the gates open. This is when the Tarnished discovers that he was not lying about the guards.

Roger

He’s a sorcerer who can be found in Stormveil Castle and is looking for “a little bit”. He is also Tarnished and warns players that there are Tarnished Hunters in the castle who will sacrifice their kind to “grafting.” 

In the weeks leading up to launch, other Elden Ring characters may be revealed. Check out our crossplay support and map for more information on this action-RPG.
