Let Me Nerd Out For A Sec And Try To Figure Out What We Are Looking At Here

let me nerd out for a sec and try to figure out what we are looking at here

so at a first glance to me this looks like an omen adorned with scarce armour, including a golden mask, bracers, hair and omen horns. i'm not sure if the hair and horns belong to the omen wearing it or are attached to the mask. on closer inspection it does appear that the horns/hair belong to the omen itself. notable that in the shadow realm the omen do not remove their horns - aspects of the crucible appear to be embraced in this realm. it reminds me of that boss we saw in the gameplay trailer - the 'chinese dragon' sort of enemy with the omen covered in cloaks with the lion face. that, to me, always came off as these omen making a mockery of the golden lineage, and i get a similar feeling looking at this. the golden mask really stands out to me... having the gold paired with omen horns just seems like a really obvious contrast that i feel like it must be a kind of wink and nudge to a feeling of "we don't respect the golden order/lineage". now let's try to break down different aspects of this image

the bracers remind me of both the guardian bracers and the godskin apostle bracelets (notable again that they are golden)

the golden mask reminds me of the face masks that both Tanith and Maleigh Marais wear

the weapons this omen is wielding remind me of another weapon we saw in the trailer, if just because of the circular aspect

the robe looks a similar colour to the one we see the man wear in the trailer (which also always reminded me of the one morgott wore)

the hair detail on the golden mask sticks out to me... it reminds me of godwyn's long straight hair, and it going through the eye reminds me of deathroot corrupting his figure. which we do see in the original elden ring trailer when his eye goes back in his head. but that's more pure speculation on my part

i'm so excited omg. love these designs. i'll add more if i think of anything else, feel free to add your own observations !

the elden ring twitter just posted this and i’m so alive bc WHAT IS THAT

My special interest? No, no. *Grips your hand tightly* Our special interest

Elden rings but mostly ranni 🥹 and drawpile stuff

Vicar Amelia is a special character for me. It was a great pleasure to portray her again, fully immersed in the atmosphere, as a part of an artbook. I’ll show you the fragments first ❤

the way the dress falls on that omen reminds me of fia's dress but let me not get ahead of myself
