Sorceress Sellen is an enigmatic NPC you can meet quite early in Elden Ring. She has a very long quest line and following her storyline will undoubtedly leave you puzzled at the very end. So, before we fill you up with the details, let’s get to know this character a bit more. Sellen is someone very hard to forget once you meet her, as she wears a signature helmet that looks like a female sculpture head that hides her actual face. This sculpture-style helmet and the dark blue robe she wears are akin to the uniform that most other sorcerers…

The Mountaintops of Giants can be considered the final region you can visit in Elden Ring. It is located far to the north at the highest altitude of the Lands Between and is permanently sealed off, forbidden for anyone to visit. Once, a proud race of Giants used to call these Mountaintops their home, but now like most of the Lands Between, it is in ruins after many wars. While some new residents have definitely moved in, the original inhabitants’ corpses lay littered, buried deep under the snow, and forever frozen by the eternal chill encompassing the mountaintops. As the…

One of the most useful Crystal Tear you will find in Elden Ring is the Cerulean Hidden Tear. This nifty item yields a very valuable effect in Elden Ring, i.e. for a grand total of 15 seconds, no FP will be consumed for any of your actions. That means you can commit yourself to cast a continuous spell that would otherwise drain all your FP in a few seconds, or use a flurry of spells without any repercussions. And believe us when we say it, 15 seconds of no mana consumption can turn the tide during a fight and be…

The Cathedral of Manus Celes is where Ranni’s questline concludes. It is also where you finally put a ring on Ranni’s fingers, marking some sort of engagement between you and the Lunar Witch. The cathedral is located on a highland situated in the southernmost part of Liurnia. The name Manus Celes also translates to Celestial Hand, as the building in its deep underground cave unironically hides a hand with Two Fingers that were designated to seal Ranni’s fate. We believe Ranni or someone protecting Ranni hid the Two Fingers inside this cathedral that is under the watchful gaze of Outer…

Ranni is without any debate one of the most popular NPCs we can meet in Elden Ring. She is the daughter of Carian Queen Rennala and the second Elden Lord Radagon which makes her a powerful demigod royalty. Her storyline in the game constitutes a full length optional story which once completed can alter the ending of Elden Ring. This ending, dubbed The Age of Stars unites you with Ranni as her eternal Lord Consort, and takes your Tarnished hero to her moonlit world. It is quite obvious that many Tarnished were bewitched by the mysterious charms of the Lunar…
