    I’ve got some strange theory that the wraiths attack you when you approach the nobles in chairs because they represent their bodies in life and they still feel tied to them. In Japan, curses are often tied to hatred and a feeling of not wishing to move on (forced to pass) Healing is a life-giving, positive act and that may be why is negatively impacts beings ruled by anger and death. Their erratic aggressive nature also supports this I guess.

    I've had the idea that revenants are the souls of people who were grafted, their spirits grafted into one raging being just as their bodies were. The curse of Grafting. Perhaps if a body holding a twig is grafted it can make the base for a revenant instead of becoming a wraith.

    Doubt youll see this zio. But personally i think wraiths and revanants are those who were cursed by godwynes deathblight and died. This would explain why the eclipse shotel seemingly uses wraiths as its "Flame " along with why a revanant is in the haligtree. Further more this might also explain why healing spells hurt them. Because, their forever cursed with a deathly blight and attempting healing only causes the blight to act up

    They also appear en masse in the moonfolk ruins on the moonlight altar, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was what their people were called. It also lends credence to the theory that the Snowy Crone was one of these moonfolk due to Ranni's four arms and blue skin.

Makes me wonder what they did down there before our golden fishy boy photobombed his way in. I doubt they added sconces of ghostflame just for him since the only enemies are the giant beef noodle and some rats plus there was no attempt to tidy up the broken arches or statues leading there. Maybe deathbird worship or something

    The vengeful spirits are those of cursed Omens and they’re vengeful towards the nobles because of the way the nobles viewed and treated the Omen. The revenants you mentioned as somewhat out of place in the shunning ground and haligtree are near Omens and seedbed curses. The wraith callers that appear near the dead nobles are not trying to summon them, they are attempting to summon the vengeful spirits that they persecuted. At least that’s always been my interpretation.

    @chazaqiel23195 ай бұрын

    One important detail is that the powers of the Wraithcallers and Revenants are basically identical to the spirits which haunt the Omen. Certain lore theory channels (in particular SmoughTown and Tarnished Archeologist) have brought forth the idea that Omen are born under the influence of the Crucible, which still lingers inside the Erdtree. However, because of this, they are disconnected from the cycle of rebirth which is channeled by the Erdtree, and as such the souls of dead Omen have no choice but to haunt living Omen, thus being the source of their nightmares. Omen who retain their horns, which are marks of the Crucible's influence, are attuned enough with the spirits dwelling within them that they can rouse them to attack their enemies. If similar VFXs are meant to draw a connection between the Omen and the Revenants, it could be that the latter are cursed souls who have somehow found a way to incarnate rather than haunt their living siblings, especially given their ability to appear from seemingly nowhere, which is clearly supernatural. Alternatively, they could just be normal humans who have taken to worshipping these vengeful spirits and have been imbued with their powers, having their bodies twisted in the process. Liurnia has always harbored a rivalry against the Erdtree, so maybe this one cult sought to harness the power of spirits who were themselves enemies of the Erdtree, only to be overwhelmed by them and warped into horrid abominations. This would also explain the presence of so many Revenants in the Haligtree: they infiltrated it because the Haligtree was Miquella's attempt at creating a new Erdtree, which they perhaps perceived as equally repugnant.

  • @Writh811
    @Writh8115 ай бұрын

    The wraiths that the Omen summon are identical to the ones called by the Wraith Callers. Just throwing something out, maybe Wraith Callers came to fill the role in society that Omen used to back during the Crucible. All of that being prior to them being warped by the Shattering.

    these guys, I feel, have a great many similarities with the Undying Ones of ASOIAF. In the books, they appear as withered corpses, frozen in chairs within a labyrinth mansion, and their skin is the dark blueish-purplish colour of bruises due to their magical connection to a disembodied blue heart, and a grove of trees with black wood and blue leaves and sap, from which warlocks make a potion called Shade of the Evening. This potion has a psychedelic effect that allows the drinker to better perceive the world around them, and ultimately have prophetic visions. Reminiscent of the blue flask of Sacred Tears that restores our FP, which is used for sorcery. But anyway, the thematic similarities between the Undying Ones and the Revenants and Wraith Callers goes a bit into ASOIAF lore theorizing, but essentially, when they're encountered in the books, they're begging to be granted death to free them from their tormented immortality, which they depict in a vision as coming from the burning of the icy blue disembodied heart. This heart symbolizes the Heart of Winter, which is the dark secret behind the Weirwood heart trees- that is, that the Undying Ones are mere avatars for their true selves, which have been crucified to the heart trees in the Heart of Winter for thousands of years, forced to power the "Weirwood net" after it was invaded by a man who wanted its power for himself. That's like.. a whole other thing that's HEAVILY reflected in Elden Ring lore, but to try and keep this contained to the Wraith Callers and Revenants, they're also distinctly associated with the Others of ASOIAF. The Others are icy humanoids who are either more avatars of the Undying Ones, or are avatars of the beings that the Undying Ones were forced to replace, and they're known to sometimes ride undead corpse horses. What I think all this symbolism is getting at, is that the Wraith Callers and Revenants are the remnants of a previous Order that the Erdtree's dominance completely shut down, cutting them off from their natural cycle of life and death. Perhaps it has to do with the Helphen, as it's implied to be a jet black tree that acts much like the Erdtree, but in the spirit world, which now seems to have been cut off from the Lands Between. Their cursed golden energy is shared by Omen, and the Sword of Milos which Dung Eater wields, suggesting that their curse is total exclusion from the Erdtree. They may well have been allies of the GEQ, or with whatever the Nox had going on before they were banished underground. And considering their presence on the Moonlight Plateau, and similarity to the appearance of Ranni's mentor, they could in fact be the "Moonfolk" associated with the Nox, the Carians, and the Albinaurics. Ranni's Two Fingers are also blue-skinned, after all.

    The revenants looking like coupled together reminds me a bit of the roots inside the burial grounds. When Godwyns corruption of the Erdtree started, It's likely that it affected the roots first, maybe reviving some of the already buried people that began to merge with the roots. Because the Elden Ring was still in place, the people kept some form of blessing, but the curse of the undead tainted it. When Marika shattered the Elden Ring, the blessing Erdtree stopped, and what remained was the curse of the undead.

No idea where it comes from but given Sword of Milos, it might be related to the "fell god" the giant's worshipped. The omens get the "Fell omen" name and the mending rune dung eater makes is called the "fell rune" It's not much, but there's not much to work with.

    One connection that didn't get touched on in this video is the wraithcallers' implied connection to Ranni, which would track if they/the Revs are cursed undead Carian nobles or rulers. We know that Ranni's doll form is based on her teacher the snow witch, who conspicuously has four arms, same as the Wraithcallers. It's hard to say whether this is a reference to them, or to the fact that all the sorcerer-made marionettes ALSO have four arms, but. I think it's quite telling that these two categories of creatures are the only noteworthy things to have four arms, and their shared connection to Liurnia doesn't feel like a coincidence.

    I'm preeeeeeetty sure, immortality was caused for plucking the run of death out of the elden ring. Not the shattering. It's pretty much the entire point of the game, to unleash true death in the world once again. As Melina puts it "this world is in need of indiscriminate death". One important clue to this, is the fact that one: Erdtree burial is a sham. The "corpses" are CLEARLY still there, in the roots, no different from the still alive, but motionless bodies from which we loot items in the game. Not to mention, despite them having "been returned to the erdtree", you clearly get the spirit ashes from them. Meaning the spirit simply rested there, but never ACTUALLY returned to the roots. It's 100% a pure unsustantiated belief of the residents of that world. And two: The accursed omen use the same colored "vengeful spirits". Who are said to have been cursed souls, unable to return to the erdtree. But remember, NO soul can return to the erdtree. Even rememberances, are stuck with the player, not in the erdtree, the same as Mohg's and Morgott's rememberances, they are all the same. Only the living jars sacrifice, and miquella's blood were seen to have an effect on feeding erdtrees. All of which are "live" sacrifices, not "soul" sacrifices Everything that dies in the lands between, remains somehow, be it as a spirit, a vengeful spirit, an undying corpse, living jars, or even worse fates, such as graven masses, those who live in death, mausoleum knights, etc This theory does conflict with the dung eater's questline. Cause if none can return to the erdtree, what does his mending rune even do? I actually think his ending only makes it so those that die become vengeful spirits, instead of any of the other alternatives of "immortality". But they still remain within the world. After all, in all the "mending rune" endings, the rune of death is never put back into the elden ring, or removes Marika's pooling arc that prevents souls from leaving this world either. (For those that don't know, the elden ring has 2 pooling arcs, one at the top, and one at the bottom. According to the rune arc description, its the basin in which its blessings pool. For context, this "basin" is missing from the ancient dragon's elden ring. And "blessings" are referred to life giving amber, common in the age of plenty, and associated with life. Essentially "holding" life within this world, even if they shouldn't. The fact that the rune of death, is the inverted basin, from which life doesn't pool, but drip, is a clear representation of life truly "leaving" this world) All "undead" froms of living, started appearing AFTER the rune of death was sealed. Meaning the world of elden ring has an "afterlife", like stated from the twinbirds lore, however the gate has been shut tight, and they are living with their consequences.

    Roderika does say that spirit in the Golden Order exists under the form of "immortal essence". Marika essentially, in what I view an infantile act, wanted to tut the world in a static state, maybe out of past loss or some desire for perpetuality (stupid wish) and in doing so she "stretched life", like with Bilbo in LOTR, "too little butter on a too large slice of bread". Or akin to the ring wraiths, their lives were stretched and the concept of life was defiled. Those "pooling arcs" you mentioned, like the resin basing arcs in Leyndell, I think, were her way to altering the metaphysics of the ER so that life goes "upward" and never "downwards", resulting in this "immortal essence" Roderika mentioned and your comment of everything being trapped in the living world, with the afterlife being bared to all. With her act, Marika removed ambition from the world as well as dynamism and the capacity to evolve and adapt (births). Ironic coming from someone who is seem as wanting to promote "ambition" and viewing only those capable of expressing their ambition above that of others as the only worthy ones. To substitute the absence of death she created the erdtree burial ritual, overwriting the natural process of death, but those still alive, I think, needed the blessings from the Erdtree to continue living in a functional manner. This is a dependency system, it's evil. That and I think she was screwed by the Elden Beast by having a premature ending to her age of plenty. She was force to resort to fundamentalism in order to gain a tool to promote faith in her system/institution but also her way to better understand the Elden Ring, how it functioned as a system, maybe to know how to break it in an efficient manner, aka the shattering.

    Coming in a month later. But I think you missed a key component: Omen are also able to harness the power of cursed spirits, and their sleep is troubled by nightmares caused by those spirits. There is no definitive answer about the Revenants, but they seem to be a type of beings that are cursed by those cursed spirits. As for why, that's unclear. Also, it's clear that everlasting life predates the Shattering.

    The revenant in the haligtree killed me so much, I ran into the room at the other side because it couldn’t go inside the room, I spammed an attack and could hit him but he could hit me. Then, he teleported underground and into the room. I was like “clever girl”

    Is it not fairly clear that the wraiths are related to the dung eaters curse? They are referred to as wraiths in both descriptions. What if the dung eater defiled the noble’s corpses and now their vengeful souls are summoned as wraiths by the wraith callers? That is why they are found together.

    My theory is that this is the attempt of normal humans to gain the divinity associated with the misbegotten. Now that I think about it, grafting is awfully similar to what misbegotten naturally are. Maybe this attempt to steal life force from others by grafting body parts, opposed to letting it return to the Erdtree cursed them. Much like ‘god’ in our world, the Old Testament version was all about curses and hellfire. Maybe this is a cursed power achieved against the greater will’s….will lol

    My theory is that those things are actually related to massacres, possibly involving innocent people, like civilians. My reason for this it's that the revenants seem to appear in places where an incredible amount of people died, for example, the city in the lake of Liurnia, the Sewers of Leyndell also have an enormous amount of corpses, the Frenzied village and the Shaded Castle. Maybe the civilians that were slaughtered in those places turned into vengeful spirit, drawing the Wraith callers, and maybe even turning into the Royal revenants. It's possible that some sorceres may have learned how to control thoses things or a least how to summon them as to be used as guardians in special places, like Selia hidden cave or the ruins where we get the the frozen needle. This could also be true for the Haligtree. On a related note, there's a really weird enemy pairing in the little tunnel that leads to the evergaol of Godefroy, where you can find two wraith callers and two vulgar militia ready to ambush you. I wonder if it means something or is just a mistake or just a weird random reuse of these enemies.

    In Bloodborne, hunters who sucumb to bloodlust and blind hyper-aggression go to the Hunter's Nightmare to hunt forever in a twisted version of the city of Yharnam. Overrun by brutality, running with a river of blood to mark their loss of humanity, compassion, and sense of reason. Starting as doctors, and becoming no more than the butchers of corpses. A fate worse than death and an dishonorable state worthy of scorn. Be very careful that you don't become that. You're acting like that's your path, and it's a terribly ugly shadow. Some people go the way of frenzy, some go the way of blood... Some of the dead may become vengeful spirits fueled by hate and spite. And some don't do any of that. Some find a way not to fall to any of those failings and find peace and serenity, breaking the cycle of suffering.
