That Plasidusax placement is actually fire. Good story too, a battle of the ages against the Last Dragon Lord.

You know it just hit me... The stars have aligned? But isn't rhadans whole deal that he's, you know, holding the stars still? Which means the stars had been aligned... For a while

[@raptorxrise5386]

I think in the cut scene after his death there are some stars wich dont move. I always interpreted him "holding the stars" as not necessarily the entire universe but stars that get to close kinda like a giant stasis bubble to prevent falling stars as they can carry monsters

[@StuffyMc]

Whatever planet Elden Ring takes place on has an orbit. At some point in that orbit (annually) certain stars appear to be aligned from the perspective of the people living on the planet.

[@1stoftheFatuiHarbingers]

Just because the stars don't move, doesn't mean the planet still doesn't rotate. Some of the stars are probably in some form or position and when the planet rotates to a degree where that formation is visible in the sky, that might be what they mean by aligned stars.

[@raptorxrise5386]

@@1stoftheFatuiHarbingers True but i dont think its the rotation of the planet. If it was that they would be "aligned" daily. It could be something with the planets orbit and mybe another planet or moon causing it to happen every few years. Didnt the radahn festival happen multiple times already?

[@seamusfinnerty5897]

the "lore" of the randomized world so far (99% from boss titles since enemies and items are so spastic i cant make heads or tails of them) Esgar works for godrick Farum azula has watchdogs the fell omen is a mimic tear (possibly sent by the nox?) Vike is a bloodhound knight and also a battlemage The god devouring serpent took over castle morne for some reason Whoever was/is in charge of limgrave left two gargoyles there The ancestral spirit is the spirit of the liurnian royal family Lanseax became a glintstone dragon Loretta serves nokstella The black knives stole giant’s fire instead of destined death The blood cult either works for malenia or is just anti-rot Rykard did dragon communion and became a magma wyrm The zamor practiced grafting A godskin guards the burials grounds (see below) A draconic tree sentinel fell from the sky (maybe they can fly?) Whatever the fuck a “draconic putrid avatar” is supposed to be Godskin erdtree avatar proves the godskins serve the greater will A mariner guards leyndell (???) A misbegotten serves radagon Maliketh and godfrey control the academy (implying merika was full moon queen) Morgott was the first elden lord Niall rules over at least leyndell A magma wyrm guarding an erdtree (alongside the draconic avatar above) implies connection between dragons and the erdtree Agheel rots in caelid instead of ekzeicks (however tf you spell it) Gowry wants a strapping young tarnished to die on his nuts (so sayeth rusty) The nox have pumpkinheads Farum azula also has magma wyrms An erdtree avatar guards gurranq, implying the beastial sanctum to be a minor erdtree +the lore established at the end of this video a fascinating and weirdly consistent mythos. for example the gargoyles are already in real lore "grafted" in a sense since they're made of corpses, and rykard still ends up a half mad magma spewing immortal reptile. this world seems to be one where merika went for the moon god instead of the greater will, thus replacing rennala and leaving the gloam-eyed queen unopposed. her rebellious omen son morgott wed the gloam-eyed queen, and in factthe godskin golden order seems pretty ok with crucible people like the omens, misbegotten, and ancient dragons and such floating around. the nox are more present, placidusax somehow ending up stuck in pre-ruined caelid seems to have let farum azula continue into the present. some sort of shattering esque shit must have happened since GEQ and marika are missing and niall is in charge instead and *someone* abandoned limgrave (maybe also niall).

[@slandracon3853]

Hey man, awesome work compiling this! Makes for some great story ideas

[@novemberbravo6194]

Yanno, I don’t really know much of the actual lore of the game; like I’ve watched Vaati’s various videos a couple of times, but it’s been a while and most of that knowledge has slipped through the cracks. So there’s no reason why this should’ve had me cracking up. And yet by the end of this “lore summary” I was laughing so hard I was literally crying. Thank you so much, I’ve been having a shitty day and I really needed that.

[@wiseguidedmissile]

We need Placidusax in his prime. In the DLC. Also Placidusax killed Radahn and stole his island, he is just that powerful.

unironically the super spongy cuckoo knight and fire monk from dragonbarrow looks like a sick duo fight. red and blue colour schemes, one's tall and pointy and metal and one's flowy and wide and robed. both have ranged and melee options but use them differently with a spear vs a mace. as bosses? thatd be sick.

[@brandonhawker6597]

That moment when you wonder why it's taking you forever to kill enemies with your basic Katana, completely forgetting your 1k+ damage Frenzied Burst snipe spell sitting in your back pocket... Currently on my second playthrough with a Faith/Arcane build, currently at Elphael, and after coming from a Melee focused first playthrough, it's still astonishing how often I'll suddenly realize "Wait, I'm running 36 Faith and 45 Arcane. I have a +9 Dragon Communion Seal with about 300+ Incantation Scaling sitting in my back pocket. The last chump I hit from a mile away with Frenzied Burst took about 1.5k damage, and it went *through* his shield. Why the hell am I running in with this dinky little piece of folded steel?"

[@prismknight353]

I think all it would take is a few tweaks and Placiduax would work great there! Hell his head going under the sand still works
