How are they going to make her good in the movie? In the game she fucks everything up and basically destroys the world. The game is a bunch of men trying to put everything back together while a few more women fuck everything up even worse.

she destroyed the world because its been taken over by an unchanging and archaic belief system that's caused endless war strife death and discrimination. and literally controlled by an outerworldly entity.
Literally the only reason You even exist is because she revived people who were abandoned by that belief system aka the tarnished and is leading you via the graces to kill the gods. Be grateful she let you have another chance at life

villain and shitty towards the golden order.
She's chaotic but not necessarily evil. Her whole goal was to kill the elden beast. She's the reason all the tarnished have a 2nd chance at life.
What she did to meszer was awful though and she obviously thought the ends justified the means, but the world's better off without the golden order cunts ruling anyways

all of them are trying to become elden lord to "fix" the situation like you, its just none of them are powerful enough to overwealm the others. Its implied there are countless other demigods who perished in the war and the ones named are just the ones still existing.
Malenia and Miquella are the only ones who aren't involved because miquella's trying to become a god instead.

You aren't special you're just a regular tarnished Marika bought back to kill her other half and the elden beast. Morgott was trying to do the same he was just a bootlicker who cared too much about the golden order to commit a cardinal sin, when he's literally housed next to the goddamn tree.
Rykard and Mohg would've likely ended up doing something similar to you one way or another.
>>
>>737452548
They shouldn't have her in the movie at all or barely seen just like in the game. Having her walking about and talking would be weird and destroys the mystery.

>>737454175
Godrick, Morgott, Malenia, and Radahn (and Rennala) are not trying to become the Elden Lord. Rykard isn't really either, but he does essentially want to supplant the Golden Order with himself, to a more literal degree than Mohg and Ranni want to.

And most other Tarnished can't even see the guidance of grace, so you are a bit special. And some Tarnished (like Gideon) actively want to prevent a Tarnished from becoming Elden Lord.

>>737454225

Also you always seem to avoid the fact that Marika was a mass murdering psychopath before she was voluntarily "enslaved" and also ignore that she consented to be a breeding cow.

Oh man, lol. Hopefully that's not AI slop.

Partially because of the nature of the film industry, I suspect the movie will be less about character driven drama and lore, and more just CGI battles during the Shattering. It'll give them less room to screw up.

Lovecraftian entities invade a world and one of them makes a pact with a WHORE. She then creates a world order as a queen and has a pantheon going on, but since the lovecraftian entities are lovecraftian all manner or weird and grotesque shit happens and it all goes to hell.
>>
>>737454398
morgott wanted to, he's literally there pleading wondering why the tree won't let him pass, and by the time you meet him he's given up and is just defending it from the others.
godrick's death line is him saying he wanted to return to the city with rays of gold, the guy's way out of his paygrade and is just lucky he didn't die already, he just wants to return to lyndell and be lord there so fair.
Malenia doesn't cause she's propping up miquella like I said whose doing his own thing.
Radahn is a mixed bag because he did start joining the war to fight for the runes but at the same time he's still seemingly siding with the golden order by stopping the stars.
Rykard/serpent wants to destroy the golden order and by extension the elden beast which would accomplish marika's goal anyways. so He'd be closer to something like the lord of flames ending where the world except instead of everyone burning and being melted its everyone being eaten and assimilated into him.

Because the other tarnished are useless cowards who've given up and are just waiting it out. Gideon only wanted to prevent you from being elden lord at the very end because he was terrified of what Marika was planning, for most of the game he was competing and planning to take the position.

evil outer alien comes to planet earth makes a tree to have people worship it and blesses some people but ignores the rest who are called tarnished and grants the power to a god in the form of a ring that's the embodiment of the world's aspects
one of the god's kids gets killed through the ploy of her other kid, so she goes mad destroys the ring into fragments making the world go into chaos.
She then seemingly revives the people who were tarnished and has them compete to kill the demigods with the ring fragments and reunite and "fix" the world.

Elden Ring has the most straightforward story Fromsoft has ever done outside of Sekiro. You are simply too dimwitted to understand it.

No star movement = no fate can happen
>>
>>737454689
The Elden Ring was shattered, triggering a massive civil war that resulted in utter devastation and has stagnated into an eternal stand-off. You are a tarnished, basically someone who was damned and had their access to God cut off, resurrected by God as a last resort to acquire enough pieces of the Elden Ring that you can restore it, becoming Elden Lord in the process.

That's the high level view.
>>
>>737454175
>to kill her other half
Does that even make sense? They're the same person like boy Ranma and girl Ranma.

>>737455147
What exactly the Elden Ring is, never established. Marika can form a male counter part for reasons, because she can. There is more but its been a while since I played. Nothing straight forward about it.

>>737452412
So lame, but I'm happy they didn't touch any of the other, better Souls games, they went straight and ruined the shittiest one.
>>
>>737454967
he's the bootlicker of the golden order, but he still wanted to become elden lord if possible, hence him talking about the tree denying him. If he became the elden lord he'd of just restored it to the way it was previously. without changing a thing.
If any of his siblings get it they'd probably change it in their own image which likely would mean rejecting the golden order so he's actively against them.

Its implied radagon got assimilated into Marika later on they weren't born like that, so its closer to like 2 people 1 body thing instead of a a ranma genderbend.
Radagon has his own ambitions that's why when you reach Marika he takes over her body and tried to kill you.

It’s literally irrelevant if Marika and Radagon were separate individuals or not when Lord and God are meant to unite in the end anyway.

Placidusax’s amulet has him with four heads. His in-game model shows five head stumps. He has both male and female heads.

The Beast got ripped out of him.

I believe that’s probably more to refer to him gaining the upper hand as the dominant half. She doesn’t want Radagon to do the thing she doesn’t want to do. He was loyal to the Order. She was not. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Beast wanted Radagon to rule instead of her.

>>
>>737455754
Marika wasn't born with radagon as a part of her, what likely happened is he got attached to her after she successfully became a god and the elden beast turned her into the vessel for the elden ring. We know the elden ring can get mended with parts detached and added aka the rune of death being removed and you adding whichever parts you want in the optional endings.

split duality is a recurring theme in the game desu, it's just another manifestation of it.
i think people tend to overlook goldmask's quest on interpreting its meaning. the moment he learns of radagon, he basically goes haywire until you tell him that he and marika are "one". after that, he cautiously resumes his work and in the end we get a mending rune that scolds the "gods" for being fickle, and causing much of the disorder of the world.
my read on that is that marika's relationship with him isn't quite the same as miquella and trina, and there's dialogue that outright states at one point radagon was not "yet" marika. thus marika's fusion with radagon implies she fucked with the laws of the world to become like miquella and trina.

No?

That would be Rennala.

In a world where wizards are regularly ruining themselves via various forms of alien transhumanism, Rennala’s ruin was a surprisingly human one.

She lost the love of her life. This broke her. Then she lost her three children: two to suicide and one to the Rot. I doubt she was even aware Ranni was still alive. It’s likely Ranni found her like that.

You're a crazy person.

Miyazaki said the story was straight forward also, but that was also the crazy talking. Some of the most basic of basic things are simply unknowable in this game. Unless the story just wasn't finished, they left a lot of it to player schizophrenia and head canon.

And that's just the background lore. Concerning the events which actually happen to the player, a number of these things are simply incomprehensible. Why are there two separate versions of most NPCs in the game, like Guranq? And why do we get teleported to Farum Azula by burning ourselves and the Erdtree?

Shit, a question I have never seen anyone ask ever, and I mean ever, is "why did Miquella need Mohg's body to get to the Realm of Shadow?" If its such an important plot device, how did it come to be so? There isn't even a vaguely alluded to reason in the game. It just declared as being the case and labelled as "information."

For the core of the game itself, we have two very profoundly notable incongruences in its story-world building and its gameplay design, which are backbreaking for understanding. The first concerns "death." Sure, the game tells us quite a lot about death, but it never actually explains anything. If we, the player, can come back, due to grace, how is it that other things die, especially when they claim to retain and possess "Grace"? No where does it say that Marika withdrew grace from anyone but the Tarnished. So the mechanics of what were even trying to accomplish makes little to no sense, if other creatures and NPCs aren't supposed to be able to die. The other is, "why don't the other Tarnished of the Round Tablehold drop great runes when slain?" Gideon mentions that they have them, so where are they? A significant portion of what should have been apart of the game, demigod lore, and great runes, is just missing.

If the story is ostensibly straight forward, then why is there so much essential content that's AFK?

Marika is based on the Virgin Marry (Maria) but if she was Jesus instead of Jesus.
Radagonn (look up Red King and Rebis) represents the idea of losing her individuality to a 'unifying' force that seeks to 'optimize' and wants to unify at the cost of her individuality.
Red is associated with 'unity'/melding of a different kind than Gold.
Gold is 'trying three dogs together and saying its a cerberus'
Red seems to be 'melting the flesh of three dogs together'

This all ties to different ideas of 'oneness' and union across history, from Orpheus, Plato and Alchemy, to Kabbalah, Zeus and Art.

i think metyr is infinitely more tragic
angelic being once at the absolute peak of everything, gets carved up by a bunch of shitty lesser beings, gets completely discarded by god. abandoned and isolated, her remaining hope is that she believes her children look after her. they do not.
then you have this priest who molests his own mind-broken swordhands and is obsessed with the fingers, plots to take her tail away from her which is the last little piece of connection she has to god. why does he want to do this? because this batshit insane degenerate priest wants to become the new finger mommy.

in the end, she gets killed by some slut's disgusting bottom of the barrel dreg of society "chosen one", and has her (still living) head turned into a club. the defining characteristic of this club is to force her into a submissive bow, until she gets so enraged at the humiliation it creates a gigantic explosion.

maliketh is literally just some stupid filthy dog man who lives to serve his mommy mistress half-sister. he was never disgraced, just used in many ways (sometimes oblivious to the fact he was being used). he's arguably the one who has suffered least, how can you even mention him in the same sentence as stories like messmer and metyr? for fucks sake, midra has been subject to extreme torture for multiple millenia for literally no fucking reason. maliketh has suffered NOTHING.

The spell list points to it. Rennala and Rellana saw their moons as children. This means they both had 70+ intelligence as little girls. This means they were smarter than the ancient ass grand master founders of the academy. As kids. Only the feminine/matriarchal Carian girls did this.

examples of "Red" archetyping: Giants, Big Snake, Rot, Blood
examples of "Yellow" archetyping: Golden Order, Miquella, the Unalloyed, Crucible, Erdtree
The Frenzied Flame seems to imply the 'melding of both' creating something much more 'interesting'

It seems that Gold implies clearly defined pieces and individuality, but can be fragmented and separated from the source as well as turned into something (such as Marika) while red implies something where the individual is lost in 'stew/pot' (Radagonn) but cannot truly be separated and ties to the source more, only merged or in some sense 'confused'?
From what I gather: why Malenia becomes 'Divine/Immortal' as he throws away her gold armor but also disappears after she transforms into a scarlet flower. Marika was a person put into a pot of her dead family to absorb them and turned gold. The Elden Ring and Erdtree 'shatter' like glass, as do runes, but are invincible because they control all the pieces and just un-glass. But the Erdtree needs to be set on fire by SUPERHOTFIRE and made red so that its power (which is convergence and authority over many things) stops working

>>737457314
Radahn’s arresting of the stars is one of the worst written parts. If he actually had that power he’d be unbeatable. He also didn’t really arrest the stars, since falling star beasts still land, and “the stars have aligned!”. Clearly he just flexed his territory and the Carians hold heritage in the region to be affected by it.

>but the Elden Beast (final boss aka parasite) doesn't 'burn', it stays Gold
interesting
>>
>>737457458
What’s canon is that the stars still move, land and align even though he arrested them. What does this tell you? He didn’t really arrest the stars. Or there’s more so nuance to it. The stars aren’t really the stars in this world.
>>
>>737457295
the game imposes the player must have 68/70 points in the intelligence stat to use the given spell. how do you jump from a game balance decision to a meaningful lore implication?

>The academy’s founder only reached 60.
that's not a sound conclusion. even if we accept this very silly thing you're doing, it means azur had at least 60 intelligence, not that he capped out at 60 intelligence (whatever that even means)
>>
>>737456912
This is a refreshing take, and was my initial impression as far back as Demon's Souls. I think the advent of lore videos started to screw with my impression of things.

Yeah, Miyazaki even apologized for the issues with DS3's lore. Stating it wasn't a "complete game." Which is pretty unusual for a game developer in general, let alone of that of a popular game.

All of this said though, it is pretty fun to notice the tiny squirreled away hidden bits of lore in the background of FromSoft's newer games. Like the visual of scales growing on the one blacksmith, and various enemies of Stonefang in Demon's Souls, for example, which tells you something that's never explicitly mentioned anywhere. Its neat stuff. But increasingly, people have gotten way too fixated and crazy on the world-building and narrative completeness of FromSoftware's titles.

You know, I've gotten death threats before, possibly meritless, from people I've enraged by engaging in criticism of ER just before the release of the DLC expansion. The only thing that was spooky, was that a couple of people even bothered to track down my LinkedIn account once. And that was just weird.

>>737457536
If he went any higher he would have noticed the moon. Oh wait he didn’t. This means no male has seen the moon - which means no male has gotten to 70 intelligence.

George loves writing exaggerated mythological accounts that didn’t exactly happen the way the stories portray.

yeah, a moment i thought was distinctly soulsian in this way was the introduction of blacksmith vamos showing up with a whole cutscene, who is this weird skeleton dwarf blacksmith guy that looks completely unlike ANYTHING in the whole game. blacksmith vamos was very interesting and just has literally zero lore or really anything, but he was so fun to think and ponder about back in the day. i wonder if he also is a symptom of these fromsoft revisions and they had more plans for him but never did anything, but still included him as a character. dont get me wrong, i still like the fromsoft style, to an extent, but i am getting a little bit tired of the same tropes over and over. it was very interesting in DeS and DS1, but by the time i played ER, i felt like i had seen all of this shit before and they didnt have any new tricks up their sleeves at that point.

Not really.
If you know mythology, Dark Souls, Bloodbornes, Sekiros and Elden Rings stories are completely coherent and consistent.

Nothing in them seems random, unfinished or lazy. The story telling and the specifics of the details redacted are very consistent in creating the 'layered maze to the truth', but if you know mythology, you can see the end before going through the maze, and it becomes very obvious why certain details are omitted.

For example, almost no one on /v/ ever caught the idea that Gwyn is a 'Soul Invictus' prototype who seeks to converge all 'Souls'/Gods unto him, and that the Convergence at the end of the World in DaS3 is the Fire literally growing to consume the world, not because of the flame going out (even though that's what Fire does when it is fed, it grows. The big Darksign in the sky is Gwyn sacrificing everything to the Fire). Instead they only see the 'Platos Cave' of Gwyn being a tragic character fighting against the end of the world or 'cycles' of Light and Dark (which are fake and are in-setting propaganda to justify feeding the fire by creating the panic they claim to be solving).

There are very likely other Elden Beasts (“yellow stars”) out there, colonizing other worlds to instigate and then feed off life’s evolution. Life is seen to form away from the yellow/gold. It’s blue or purple, on its own. Fallingstar beasts become malformed stars, or Astel, etc.

the moons are a carian occult thing. ymir realized they literally weren't shit and abandoned the whole carian house to worship the greater will, and he's positioned as the best sorcerer we come across (excepting for maybe sir gideon)
i'm going to flip this around on you, comet azur is an infinitely more powerful spell that's more FP efficient AND easier to use while also being much better at absolutely destroying super powerful bosses.
in other words, it's a much better formalized and designed invocation of magic. the "70 intelligence" requirement on rennala's moon is more or less an "idiots admire complexity" moment.

Rennala can’t be smarter or more powerful than the two founders. She’s nowhere near as evolved or as advanced as they are. They ditched their staves. They are their own catalysts.

Godrick is legitimately the person in the best position to make the world a better place at the start of Elden Ring.
Limgrave is relatively peaceful. There's no obvious ecological disaster, there is functioning highway patrol and a semblance of social order. The Misbegotten and Beastfolk uprising happened recently enough that there's still things actively on fire when you show up, meaning functional industry, a functional economy, and functional local leadership are actively things in Limgrave.

Godrick on paper lost, but achieved strategic victories in every confrontation he was in.

Are you sure about that? He’s a lousy ass mini boss, just like Gideon.

On that note: We're never provided with anything approaching an explanation for skeletons post-DS1 at all, which were due to the necromancers and the presence of Nito. Which is a pretty strange thing.

Ranni is a Mary Sue, the story basically paints her as perfect. If you try to turn her into an actual doll, she knows that you're tricking her and kills you on the spot.

Space is technically, by default, much more occult and much more nebulous (it has nebulae after all, *snicker*) than the moon. More arcane (this word is very much synonymous with the occult, the esoteric, the eldritch, etc).

There is nothing more occult or mysterious than the deep black abyss that is space. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Looking up at the night sky and accusing the stars of being the gods was the birthplace of religion and magic.

So you’re left to assume that there’s something *more* to the moon. If not alien, then what? Human, I’d imagine. It’s closer to home and less inhuman.

> the definition of a Mary Sue is someone who can do anything and everything perfectly with very little effort
So… just like Rennala and Rellana? As children they were smarter than the entire academy. “The moon is smarter. The stars are dumb”. She literally barged into a men’s magic club and took over and declared her feminine magic superior. Don’t forget that academia is a male dominated environment. She’s a very literal Mary Sue if you bother to analyze the politics and lore of Liurnia.

Ranni literally honey traps you into doing her ending if you don't then she's irrelevant to the story.
Rellana literally ditched her hope to elope with a god who doesn't even sleep her with her because he's stuck with mommy issues.

Resurrection / respawning is a part of the lore. The erd tree is like a huge soul data bank and it revives/respawns things or keeps them alive. Your soul can go into it and come out to take different forms.

>Shit, a question I have never seen anyone ask ever, and I mean ever, is "why did Miquella need Mohg's body to get to the Realm of Shadow?" If its such an important plot device, how did it come to be so? There isn't even a vaguely alluded to reason in the game. It just declared as being the case and labelled as "information."
probably has something to do with him being an omen, and omens being a result of the old tree before it was grafted to make the golden order.
> "why don't the other Tarnished of the Round Tablehold drop great runes when slain?" Gideon mentions that they have them, so where are they?
He doesnt say that.

The greater will wants you to collect as many runes as possible, all runes are a part of the Elden Ring, but you only need some of the "greater Runes" to fix the elden ring

Then one day when radagon comes back to make amends, she kicks him out of the home for his cheating and ranni is there smug at her father and tells him there's no place for a loser in this home anymore all the while having her dick in Renalla whose clenching her teeth to hold back cumming in front of her former husband before deciding to spray it all out and telling him that Ranni is 10 times the man in bed you ever were

The moon is actually masculine. It’s only superficially feminine. It doesn’t require a sorcerer to be submissive at all. This is a lot unlike the stars.

Rennala became powerful on her own terms. She is dominant, not submissive. The stars would have you submit to their cancerous ruin just like a woman getting fucked in the face by the cosmic cock. To become taken over. To become a stoned out rock. Just totally checked out. Like an abused woman in a horrible relationship. Azur and Lusat maxed out their intellects but got covered in hardened cosmic space jizz in the process. They’re “smart” because their brains were beaten into an alien/inhuman shape. Submission to the cosmic forces.

The moon in contrast reflects the stars’ (the sun’s own) light, or filters its cancer radiation—and is this symbolic reflection of the witnesser (the Carian twins were close, glimpsing their moons nestled in one another’s embrace, together as one body), and as such is the reflection of the sorcerer’s own intelligence and ingenuity.

“There’s a man in the moon. Have you seen him?” It’s (You).

Tldr; academia is masculine but the stars require you to be submissive; meanwhile the moon is superficially feminine and its magnum opus philosophy is a masculine or symbolic representation of the sorcerer (that moon sorcery takes up a bit more intelligence than a deep space primeval sorcery should clue you in that there’s a bit more to the moon than meets the eye) and Carian philosophy is about perfecting the self, not alien trans-humanism.

Sellen even says as much when she points out that her philosophy focuses on (altering the human) Mind to the detriment of (the human) Intelligence. Compare Lusat’s staff with Rennala’s staff; the former boosts magic more than the latter despite its lower Int requirement, but is largely impractical or just highly situational due to an unreasonably high increase in FP/Mind expenditure.

>You claimed that Souls lore is coherent and consistent, when it’s just not, and uses assets from other games. Architecture has never meant squat
I'm not that into architecture, but DaS is consistent throughout 1 and 3.
If we say there's the 'public' layer and the 'true' layer to DaS1 and 3, then 3's story perfectly answered much of 1's 'true' layer. In fact, the entire mystery of DaS1s plot is solved in the opening words said by Narrator-Lady
>Kindling Seeketh Embers
that the entire story of DaS1 was about setting up a system of belief where people would become 'kindling' to seek 'embers' and converge into Gwyns 'fire Cult'. It was all a setup for Gwyn to do the equivalent of Griffisu~ 'Eclipse' except on THE ENTIRE WORLD, which is why the ending has the Dark Sign in the sky, like Berserk's eclipse. Everyone is being sacrificed and no one knows why - in reality, Gwyn just wants to be a 'real God of everything' and not just 'a King who people claim is God'.
This 'Gwyn cult' was weak at the start of DaS1 which is why Gwyn temporarily lost his lightning in DaS1 but got them back in Phase 2 of DaS3s last fight (because Lightning depends on Faith, and Gwyn Lord of Cinder, not Sunlight, only had Faith by the time of DaS3 when everyone is being sacrificed)

The contrast between Carian magic and Raya Lucarian magic is interesting to me. Their philosophies. Their end goals and beginnings.

Raya Lucarian magic is foundational in its origins, as the very beginner of glintstone sorcery, but embracing it ends with the total or partial loss of one’s humanity. To change the mind altogether. It’s the goal. It’s a trans-humanist philosophy. It’s not required, but it’s in the implication; or at the very least it’s the whole allure around it; unavoidable if you cannot resist it. It’s a form of spiritual cancer.

Carian magic is less foundational, being more martially derivative; it doesn’t need you to ditch your humanity. In fact the lore points to the moon being the sorcerer’s own reflection of themselves. Perhaps. Is the moon closer to home, than the stars? Closer to humanity than the alien? I’d say yes. Carian philosophy ends with the rare discovery of one’s own moon, taking up a lot more intelligence than what is usually typical of Carian sorceries. Why? Clearly it is an indicator of something.

What I’m saying is that while the Raya Lucarians’ breakthroughs happen through contact with the alien cosmos, working all the way down from cosmic prototypes (the primeval sorceries) to their smaller forms, Carian breakthroughs appear to transpire through more personal matters; that of martialism, and works up towards the moon.

The finishing philosophy of the primeval isn’t a big spell, it’s some transformation. The finishing philosophy of the Carians isn’t an alien transformation, it’s a spell (that transforms you into your own magic rock, momentarily, ironically enough — in contrast with the primeval sorcerers who appear to be rocks permanently).

This isn’t always the case, though. Raya Lucarians have their own martial (Haima) derivatives and Carian’s still stare at the stars + moon (Carian philosophy is that the moon goes together -with- the stars).
>>
Another thing to consider is that in the earlier text versions of the base game, a glintstone crown was described as a sort of “resurgence”, implying that they may not have even been a thing during Carian rule over the academy. But this doesn’t mean that some Raya Lucarians don’t still side with the Carians, as seen with the Lazuli, who are found at the Carian manor and share the halls with the other sorcerous conspectuses. That there isn’t a glintstone crown for Rennala is likely a form of respect. Maybe. Or maybe since men are much more common it’s just the standard to make it men. How unique is Sellen’s crown, for that matter?

It’s also possible that the Carians are fine with the glintstone crowns. But this is still pushing it. Shoving glintstone to your face sounds a lot like shoving glintstone into your chest. It borders on primeval philosophy if we really pay attention. The primeval patterned drapes have also placed over the main seat in the debate hall. This is likely a statement of some kind. Going back to the roots. Rennala’s statues around Liurnia co-opted the patterns.

Rennala was a symbolical mother to the school. Keeping her students and faculty safe from staring too far into the stars.

>>737458984
I’m still confused whether Rennala banned the primeval current or if Radagon did. Rennala seems kind so she wouldn’t like it. But using space rocks instead of the roots of the Erdtree for revival would probably irk Radagon.

Incorrect, as per Miyazaki's authorial intent.
I can disprove you very easily:

https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/caria+manor
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carians
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hecate
Hecate (/ˈhɛkəti/ HEK-ə-tee;[3] Ancient Greek: Ἑκάτη)[a] is a goddess in ancient Greek religion and mythology, most often shown holding a pair of torches, a key, or snakes, or accompanied by dogs,[4] and in later periods depicted as three-formed or triple-bodied. She is variously associated with crossroads, night, light, magic, witchcraft, and the Moon.

She had popular followings among the witches of Thessaly, and an important sanctuary among the Carians of Asia Minor in Lagina.[7]
>>
>>737458931
The moon isn’t a finishing philosophy. It’s just special moon gurl power. Remember that they found them as little girls. Cringe.

>>737459096
Holy shit. ESL alert. The moon is female on the surface. Trying to stay human and not submit to the crystallized jizz of space is a masculine aim. Wanting to cover yourself in crystallized space jizz is not masculine.

The irony is that the feminine is more masculine while the masculine is more feminine. Freak.

The moon is actually associated with more male gods than female gods around the world. In Japan the moon god is a male. The sun is female. In the west the foremost god of magic was also the god of the moon, and stars, and indeed all astrological maths in general, later the sun included. It also adopted a triple motif like Hecate. Trismegistus.

And before you claim Isis > Thoth. No. She always ran to Thoth for help. Always.

Radagon is based on a character of the same name from the play "A Looking Glass For London".
In the play he's a conniving and sophistic man of low social rank that was elevated to the level of a King with a scientific outlook on life in defiance of obvious divine intervention who is punished with a curse because of him denying his own family.
A lot of this fits our Radagon clearly. His origin is mysterious, he's a scholar that tried to understand divinity through a scientific and logical lens, he's implied to carry a punishment curse from the Fire Giants in some way.
In this case him being elevated to a King follows him being elevated to the role of Elden Lord either by Marika's schemes or the Two Finger's. And his downfall by abandoning his first wife, is patterned off of Ranni's murder plot on Godwyn and its consequences.

i struggled with this in elder scrolls too, i know there's heraclitus and stuff who talk about dual natures and things being part of a whole even if they are different, chiral things or whatever but what is the actual mechanism by which these things come to be the same or different/same at the same time? were they always one (clearly not, because marika said 'thou are yet to become me', right?) or were they "one" even when apart?
radagon is noted to have basically come out of nowhere in the history books

The Greater Will was probably the equivalent to Izanagi in Shintoism, or like Uranus in Greek myth where people know it exists, but the deities are so far off from human affairs that it doesn't matter.
Only some well educated weirdos like Bernahl or Goldmask care about it.

The Elden Beast was probably secret to everyone.

the dlc doesnt say it outright but instead tells you the process necessary for achieving the level of godhood that marika has through miquella's own attempt. to obtain godhood, you must cast away your worldly form piece by piece. miquella cast away his flesh, his love, and the part of him that that would eventually have its own sentient personality as st trina. its a paradoxical and a perverse take on obtaining enlightenment as what remains is a god without the true selfless desires and resolve that led to creating it, leaving an all powerful puppet thats easily controlled by something like the greater will. st trina is not miquella but is, its similar but not completely the same as marika is not radagon but is. i guess it differs from person to person

>Why are there two separate versions of most NPCs in the game, like Guranq?
Faraam Azula is a place outside of conventional time. They're the same Guranq, but it'd be better to say that the Guranq at Faraam Azula's a 'screenshot' of the original. Nothing that happens to him happens to the original, and vice versa.
> And why do we get teleported to Farum Azula by burning ourselves and the Erdtree?
Faraam Azula seems to be a failsafe that imprisons those who would attempt to harm the Erdtree. It's no surprise that all of the npcs you come across in Faraam Azula either have interacted with the Flame of Ruin (Alexander, looking to temper himself with the Flame of Ruin), or the Rune of Destined Death (Guranq, Recusant Berhnal using the Blasphemous Claw)
>why did Miquella need Mohg's body to get to the Realm of Shadow?
Omens do not return to the Erdtree when they die, instead they are sent to the Realm of Shadow. To be able to travel to the Realm of Shadow, Miquella charms Mohg and makes him taint Miquella with copious amounts of Omen blood, desecrating his body similar. His body then acts as a conduit to travel to the Realm of Shadow.
> If we, the player, can come back, due to grace, how is it that other things die, especially when they claim to retain and possess "Grace"?
'Grace' is a blessing that ensures victory. Functionally, it retroactively removes any of the scenarios where the one blessed by Grace would lose. The caveat is that it only remains as long as you do not give up on your goal. Your Tarnished canonically never dies.
> why don't the other Tarnished of the Round Tablehold drop great runes when slain?
They never slayed any of the shardbearers. You did. Gideon never actually mentions that anyone else gathered any of the other shards. He does say that he only considers you a true member if you get a Great Rune, but he doesn't extend that challenge to anyone else. He's just manipulating you to see if you have potential.

I have an actual question regarding this. Obviously God is God, but Jesus became God or something along those lines. Like, Jesus is literally God. So what does God do now? Is he retired? Jesus is the Son of God, but was also promoted to God. Is that like a dad turning over the family business to their son or something? What became of God once Jesus gained his position?
>>
>>737476298
No. God manifested himself as Jesus, his son. And the son, Jesus is God too. There's no "Jesus" became God. He always has been God from beningging.
They are separate and at the same time they are the same, just like Marika and Radagon.
Jesus even makes it even more complicated because he is part of a trinity, God, Jesus, The Holy Spirit.

That's kind of the problem with Soulsborne story telling. You have to go out of your way to find some obscure item that may or may not work well with your build just so you can read its cryptic item description in order to make head and tails of what's going on.

Or you could just have cutscenes and narration like a normal video game.

That's a heresy, anon. God is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Father is not the Son nor the Spirit, the Son is not the Father nor the Spirit, and the Spirit is not the Father nor the Son. That's about as plain as it gets and it's confusing because the nature of God is explicitly inhuman.

>So God gave us his son that's also him? Was God just wanting to learn about humanity or something? What was the significance of him appearing at the time he chose to appear? Humanity needing course correction?
There is only 1 God in essence.
But the essence is spread to 3: Father, Son, Holy Spirit.
1 Essence is to 3 Existences. They are one, but also separate.
Jesus appeared because the Father sent him to redeem and forgive humanity for all eternity as long as they repent .
Course correction is what I'd call the Noah and then later on Moses disaster. It was when the Father was still fickly and cunty towards humanity.
>>
>>737477054
>I'm not ragging on Christianity or the Bible or anything
I understand, anon. God's nature is confusing which is why talking about His nature requires being extremely precise with wording, because otherwise people tend to get the wrong idea about God.
>So God gave us his son that's also him?
Yeah. Jesus was intentionally sacrificed for humanity's sake, to save everyone from eternal death and damnation.
>Was God just wanting to learn about humanity or something?
Because God is the way He is, he can't interact with creation without His presence consuming reality, as in the presence of God there is only His light. As we exist in God's shadow, He wants to form meaningful relationships with us, as we are His creation and He loves us.
>What was the significance of him appearing at the time he chose to appear?
There were a lot of false prophets at the time and the necessary requirements to fulfill the Scriptures were at hand, I think.
>Humanity needing course correction?
Also yes, but humanity is always in need of sin correction.
>>
>>737477258
Repentence is a natural part of salvation, I think. You can't accept God's gift of eternal life if you don't actually forgive yourself, and you can't genuinely do that if you do not seek restitution. As in, you receive salvation because you genuinely want to make amends, even if it might be in your final hour.

Feels like people are missing the obvious here in that Marika belongs to a race of beings with malleable, bonding flesh and plant aspects. The simple act of grafting itself is a reference to botanical cultivation techniques. It's probably just the case that Marika's people are inherently hermaphroditic with the ability to change sex.
Miquella demonstrates a similar duality with St Trina.
Malenia isn't, as far as I remember, shown to have a masculine alter ego, but does behave in the more traditional masculine protector role, and her appearance is slightly androgynous.
Both of these seemingly hermaphroditically produced children also have the most overt floral iconography and phenomena attached to them in the Haligtree, the Lilies, the Scarlet Aoenia etc.
