(No DLC Spoilers!)

Like with a lot of their games, FromSoftware and Hidetaka Miyazaki don’t really give us much explicit backstory about our main character, the tarnished, in Elden Ring. However, according to this theory from a Japanese Lore YouTuber, there is a lot more to our character than meets the eye...and the evidence is right in the games opening cinematic.

Join me as we examine some interesting clues and uncover our main characters true origins. Are we a simple tarnished or are we Marika’s Child and a demigod in our own right? Is Godwyn Marika’s unwanted child? Who lies sleeping in the wandering mausoleums?

Listen to the evidence yourself and let me know what you think in the comments!

The Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is almost upon us! I hope this video and lore theory will help you kill some time while you wait :)
