Elden Ring - Unique faces from the DLC

[@ZullietheWitch]

EDIT: I made a typo with Dancer of Ranah, her Jaw Contour should be 90, not 9. The usual disclaimer with facedata still applies, regular NPCs, including bosses like Messmer or Rellana for example, don't have facedata and can't be copied by the player, because they just use a unique model instead.

[@PierceArner]

@@technicallypsycho5370 They serve a story purpose. It highlights how, in the end, Tanith has abandoned the noble person who others knew and loved that she used to be, and has fallen totally into unrecognizable depravity over her inability to detach from her obsession with the Serpent's legacy. This is identical to what befell Rykard himself, which is why the phantom of one of his own Gelmir Knights informs you about the Serpent-Hunter and begs you to slay him as soon as you arrive in the Manor. Tanith following in Rykard's footsteps when she inherits the role of acting Lord of the Volcano Manor recusants is a painful, but poignant lesson about the allure and corruption of defining oneself as the blasphemous opposite to an extant authority like the Erdtree. It shows how much that necessity of embodying a diametric contradictory force divests you of your own identity and shapes you into a reflection of the thing you oppose. Tanith herself even notes that when she wants to protect Zorayas by forcing her to drink the potion to forget, she's being the same type of manipulative force as the Erdtree that she opposes out of misguided and overprotective love for her poor child. For me, that context from Patches actually trying for the ONE person who isn't worth it is what made the particular choices in Zorayas' questline all the more important in showing her a real way to break that cycle that doesn't have to come with erasing her memory or ending her life. (Those lessons hit even harder if you're familiar with the book *_Night's Master_* by Lee Tanith, which is a large inspiration to a number of elements and stories in the game, but particularly insofar as what Zorayas' life could be if it were set on the wrong path by the encounter with Blackguard Big Boggart, and if she'd embraced killing rather than being shown how to be merciful and kind even when it is necessarily painful in order to prevent someone from becoming an unrecognizable monster from who they once were).

[@khajiitimanus7432]

I'm trying to think of FromSoft guys (with big swords) who are not Berserk references. All I got is Tarkus, Gwyn, Benhardt, Starscourge Radahn, Bernahl, Radagon (formerly, when he used Golden Order Greatsword), and Morgott. I'm pretty sure everyone else is a Berserk reference in some way. Vengarl is a brutal berserker mercenary renowned for impressive strength, who gets really reflective when left alone. Alonne left his king and friend at the height of their power, since he was no longer needed - and then said king then made every mistake possible. Artorias, Gael, Raime, Blaidd, Maliketh, and Solitary Knight are just straight Guts references. Hawkwood is the last surviving member of a 'mercenary' group which died out under an eclipse. He also uses a big sword. He's also a Guts reference. Pontiff Sulyvahn might be a Griffith reference, despite his large swords. Darius hunts the "abominations" that used to be human. Devin fights for revenge for his other self, who was backstabbed (albeit only literally this time). edit: The Siegs wear armor loosely inspired by Bazuso's unique platemail. The Redmane Knights use the same somersault as Guts, via Lion's Claw and (in lore) Savage Lion's Claw. Ludwig is, unfortunately, a reference to a specific horse in his first phase.

[@khajiitimanus7432]

@@Xenochrist I forgot about Siegs. They're cool, never even made the Bazuso comparison. I didn't need to remember the horse. That technically doesn't apply, as when we fight Radahn in Caelid, he never does such a thing. I'm sure the Redmanes were taught it, so it wouldn't surprise me if Savage Lion Claw came from Radahn just like Rain of Arrows, but alas. That said, one of the DLC bosses is definitely a VERY hard Griffith reference, even mind-controlling a character with a similar personality to Guts. Rather reminiscient of how Guts was bound to Griffith's service in the Golden Age arc because of the duel. (I'm avoiding DLC spoilers for the random reader - I'm very aware myself, but IMO, it hasn't quite been long enough to warrant casual mention). Godfrey and Serosh, I never noticed!

I knew it. My nigga Sir Ansbach

[@Truck_Kun_Driver]

2:16 is that Guts Von Berserk from the famous manga Berserk?????

[@sylvialc8066]

I love the Romani inspiration with the dancer of ranah’s outfit

[@Deatheater4444]

Thiollier being a sad femboy is exactly what I expected, honestly.

[@__bepis____bepis__308]

From does a surprisingly good job of making npcs look like how they sound

[@hitchicker42]

Wow, the dlc hasn’t even been out for a week yet and you’re already bringing us content on it, thanks!

[@Everythingthe1st]

2:08 So random fact, Rakshasa or rakshas (राक्षस), as it's known in modern-day Hindi, means demon.

[@theus__]

Dlc brought such babes damn

[@monbub]

they had no reason to make rakshasa that gorgeous and then have her wear a helmet 😭 but I should be used to this by now

[@megakaioken9386]

Ansbach turning out darkskinned was a pleasent surprise, he looks so much like my grandpa! I guess Varre's fit and the whole blood mottif gave me the impression all Mohg's surbordinates would be pale skinned vampire lookin types. Which is funny considering how many of the other masked npcs are actually super pale.

[@projektred8335]

Needle Knight Leda is 100% frommsoft's saberface.

[@memeg8076]

Not even fromsoft is safe from the Seibahhh faces.

[@StretchDude]

Red Bear is literally Disney's Tarzan.

[@GerudoKing_]

That’s what I thought too.

[@KevinDooley420]

I was just thinking how much I wanted NPC face sliders for the DLC and BAM--you deliver. You're the best Zullie, thank you!

[@spoonaddict8805]

I did not expect Igon to look so old. I always thought he would look at least a little younger and have scruffy yet not so long hair or beard, but i was dead wrong. yet the look 100% fits his character oddly enough. His looks and personality never screamed "i am a stable human being who regularly cleans himself and take care of his physical well being. I am in perfectly good condition. " He was more like "I am a a broken shallow of a man, obsessed with eevenge and the power of dragons. I never care about my physical health more than i need to, because all the time i spend not hunting dragons is a waste. And also CURSE YOU BAYLE!!!"

[@JesusDiaz-wd6hy]

No shame in admitting 1:20 is what we all came for

[@ryuivanovich7271]

Igon kinda reminds me of Buck from Ice Age, that dude also had a grudge with a certain dragon/dinosaur.

[@Dino-zg2kg]

I can kinda see that

[@kekwSpiler]

Dryleaf Dane is an absolute specimen

[@puella9632]

I was soo excited to see Thiollier and Freyja!! They're so cute

[@xayah3943]

i love thiollier so much and now i love him even more after this

[@MrOrtain]

Thank you! Leda has been my favorite character design since her helm-less art dropped. I can now cosplay as her during my NG+5 run ❤️

[@Acro]

There is so much intention with the models of NPC that we will never see in game. They all have specially crafted faces and looking at them, they all feel right and like they fit the character. The love put into this game is astounding.

[@ColtonGamingTV]

Thanks, Zullie for the face data for when I inevitably start doing cosplay builds of some of the npc's!

[@T101Crazy]

Sabah cosplay

[@ColtonGamingTV]

@@T101Crazy I am thinking going to do videos for queelign, ansbach, freja, dryleaf dane, both swords of night, messmer, dancer, moonrithyll, natann and that will be it. Messmer though is going to be my first of the videos.

[@KyIieB]

0:24 please tell me you can have that armour because HOLY SH*T I just creamed my pants.

[@trustmeits610pm2]

Yes you can. It's hidden in a random dungeon though and is easy to miss.

[@deepsoft7829]

Moore is such an ungabunga, I adore him

[@hellraiser5300]

Something that intrigues me a lot is the morphology of the divine beast... Could you make a video showing its model in detail?

[@elijahruiz4735]

Freyjas baby face befitting of the very mask she wears is hilariously

[@ItsYaBoiV]

YES!! I was hoping for this!! You're the best Zullie!! ❤❤❤

[@JDPower-mk3xe]

Queelign is literally Shaggy, making him the most powerful character in existence

[@coredefect6134]

We need to address how Mohg was actually the victim, lmfao

[@juanborges211]

Fun fact I cannot prove and I think is right, is that the dane's (dry leaf art guy) design was and attire especially the hat, had some inspiration in mozgus from berserk

[@EuclideanAl]

Red Bear looks like such a surfer bro

[@sniezka9794]

guys did you know that rico ( unused npc) has the same armor as Igon

[@femmemachete]

Poor Rico didn't make a comeback

[@Brntnugget]

Kinda strange how Ansbach is supposed to be a former follower of Mogh but he doesn’t have the marking on his face like other ones have

[@OriChoco]

Yea he also doesn’t have red eyes

[@gyrozeppeli00]

Kinda put into question about the stuff he said. Me personally, I don't believe it's entirely Miquella plan to be Mogh-lested because realistically it wouldn't make too much sense to. He would still be stuck in the shadow land doing nothing because Mogh stole him from his place in the roots of the Haligtree before he fully became an adult and if not for the Tarnished involvement, Mogh would still be alive, Radahn of course maybe someday without our input still die because of the Radahn festival. It doesn't make much sense controlling the Moghwyn rune bank owner because he straight up just fucks up your plan. TLDR: Mogh still not beating the allegations

[@niveauabulle5205]

This may imply that Mogh wasn't the monster we know him to be before getting his head messed up by Miquella. We know Ansbach was brainwashed right after Mogh got his heart stolen, since he states to have been as he turned his blade against the Empyrean when he saw his Lord being beguiled. The fact that he isn't red eyed and marked may imply that Mogh's flock wasn't the merry band of psycho it had become by the time we met Varre.

[@Dinoman972]

​@@niveauabulle5205 Why and how would Miquella turn Mohg into a blood cultist and a tyrant? Even if we go with the cartoonishly evil manipulator interpretation way too many people are already using on him, he doesn't benefit at all from someone trying to conquer the Lands Between first and/or contending Radahn's spot as his consort. Leda even mentions at one point that Ansbach was the one to take Miquella from the Haligtree to begin with, and that's after the charm on her is broken. Mohg and his subjects were always villainous.

[@queenbee7266]

@@Dinoman972 miquella tried to shed his curse/grow the haligtree by feeding it his own blood. It worked for a while, but couldn’t grow the tree to adulthood due to curse. Guess who else has ties with blood + mostly unknown + good vessel material + fast pass to shadow land? Also he uses his surgeons as evil red cross agents, but why would HE need blood? Lore says that he has his followers bathe miquella’s cocoon in blood AND lives in side him AS blood which sounds like something a mindless husk would do…We know that miquella can literally make you do whatever he desires (as shown by many eg in game plus his charm mechanic that steals our heart and makes us submit, despite us being THE most ambitious tarnished in that entire game) so i really don’t see why he would allow ansbach to cleave open his cocoon if it was not within his interests or better yet, he had brought them there. There are also lore in game that suggests malenia actually knows where her brother is (with mohg), like how she ‘awaits his return’ + tarnished don’t get the option to tell her where miquella is because it wouldn’t matter, she already knows. And given how bewitched she is by miquella as well, she wouldn’t have sat idly by if Miquella didn’t want to be taken. Also consider how tf Mohg’s fatass (not alone too apparently) got into the haligtree in the first place? The ‘miquella was kidnapped while Malenia went to fight radahn’ theory has been throughly dismissed since npc Freja was cured of rot BY MIQUELLA that she got from that fight in caelid. So high chance mohg (or got summoned) before the war, with one of the strongest demigod Malenia present, or after the war (i am kinda leaning towards the former because idk how miquella would explain to her sister that she can cure random npc rot but not hers) with malenia present as well. So what did he just barge in? Turned into a puddle to gain excess? I had say he was most likely let in. Add on to the fact that he intended to kill Radahn, sending Malenia to fight him…that means he had a vessel in mind already. Tldr So sir ansbach was enchanted into becoming a beast of burden

[@JayIsBased.]

Alright hear me out on the thiollier one...

Dryleaf dane gigachad...

[@siriusmywaifu4043]

Thank you!!! I was actually waiting to see when you would do this since I really enjoyed watching the unmasking of Elden Ring NPC'S. ❤
