As we say in the video, we don't think it's Godwyn either. Obviously, this character has something to do with Godwyn 👍
Is it really obvious though? Is the similar posture alone enough to make that claim with any certainty?
I also think it's related to Godwyn in some way. Given that Elden Ring has a huge theme of dual identities, perhaps this could be his Alter or some kind of "shadow" of Godwyn
@@Galamoth06 To claim they're related somehow? Absolutely
Dude, are you royalty?
I think this things spine has been removed. Hence the posture.
The DLC looks like it will be more horror based than the main game. This thing looks scary as hell
right? all the enemies look so unnerving
@@SDSypher Agree. I would not compare it to Bloodborn horror neither. This looks like it's own kind of Souls-like horror
But also pretty pink butterfly incantations
Don’t forget we get the first horrid swamp trend missing from Elden ring really. Yeah the dlc is gonna be a nightmare.
This pretty par for the course for Elden Ring. What is with you people.
That could be one of the Omen inside the Lion Dancer boss. Maybe thats why it looks contorted
Second phase of that fight
This seems plausible cause in the trailer theres an omen sitting almost crosslegged om top of the other. Dude has a permanent hunch from being sat on
@@NumberD2000 it’s the exact same cloak of the lower omen too.
OOooh shit, good call.
I see the similarities but I don’t think it’s them. This looks like a different environment than that boss arena
Its not Godwyn
Elaborate
No elaboration required. It's just not Godwyn.
@@AppleIndianFTW They have different color hair and Godwyn doesn't have anything to do with the crucible the creature in the picture is its own character
@@AppleIndianFTWGodwyn's hair isn't white, Godwyn doesn't have omen horns, he doesn't wear a mask, and his body is not in the Land of Shadow. This character doesn't appear to have deathblight stuff, and they also don't have the Half-Wheel Wound of the Centipede on their back like Godwyn does.
Cruicile Scion maybe
Since the omen horns are a mark of the Crucible Period, & a lot of the characters we’ve seen have horns & other omenlike features, I think it makes sense that the Crucible Period ended with the separation of the Land of Shadows from The Lands Between, & thus its inhabitants have been essentially stuck in the old culture
Now we got a new type of weapons chakram
@@seido_kamishiroI’ve been waiting for them to appear in these games!
Is the Crucible Period really over? Or is that Golden Order propaganda? Is this why Omen are shunned underground to hide this truth? We keep seeing ‘horned’ beings. If the Crucible still exists, or there’s access to it somehow, imagine the bosses Fromsoft could potentially create.
That bruise on the lower back is quite similar to where Marika had the spear in her body.
My thoughts exactly!! Perhaps this is the god from the age of the Crucible?
It really only resembles a wound when you blast the contrast. The whole lower back of the creature has the exact same pitch black shading
With how Godwyns death roots appearing even in Farum Azula it isn’t a stretch that it would pop up in the land of shadows.
You can see a lot of deathroot in the trailer. Some locations are covered with it and there might be a deathblight swamp
This is not Godwyn. I predict this boss is the 2nd form of the Lion Dancer Boss which we saw in the trailer for Shadow of the Erdtree. In said trailer we see the Lion Dancer attack the protagonist with Deathroot attacks while this boss has clear connections to Godwyn as well due to the pose of his arms. Also the feet that can be seen under the Lion costume are identical to these and the Lion mask has Omen horns as well. Plus the coat of this boss has the same color as the costume of the Lion Dancer.
I'd love to agree but this make as much sense as this thing being Godwyn. I mean, you're cherry picking at this point. It's like saying "Oh, these two people have similar eye color, similar hair and height. They're surely related!"
I'm not saying you're wrong in any way. I might be absolutely wrong with what I'm going to say: Fromsoft knows we're digging into stuff they show. This thing is posing in the same way Godwyn does. There's 90% probability it's connected in some weird or convoluted way. Again: I'm probably completely wrong here. We need to see in the DLC for ourselves but one thing is for sure.
Shadow of the Erdtree is going to be wild and horryfing
Dawg imagine getting isekaid and that's the first thing u run into lml
lml?
Being Isekaid in a Souls world must be the worst shit ever, you would end up dying more than Subaru in Re:zero😂😂😂
@@pout1385Fun fact The tree sentinels whole purpose of being in the starter area is because the developers wants you to know what you are playing😂
Except those isekais usually give you a harem, we just end up maidenless in this world :(
We have seen his face in the cinematic trailer when his eyes roll back
When
@@SDSypher in the original for the main game cinematic trailer
And the death blight poured out of his eyes. I remember that. Nice theory.
Went back and watched the Trailer. Outside of the worms coming out, there is no face im the eye.
That was just his "eye", yes, singular. We do not know at all how he looks
Half of me thinks its related to Godwyn, the other half thinks Morgott and Mohg have another brother
Edit: Now that I think about it, having Godwyns soul be slain by the Black Knives, and possibly being in the Land of Shadow is crazy!
could be the formless mother
@@makaroninini The formless mother doesn't have a physical form it's why we don't see her body when we stab her with moghs spear
@@makaronininippl have pointed out that this pic looks like ovaries which goes with the Formless Mother
Morgott and Mohg do have another brother lol. Godwyn is their brother.
@@draw2death421 oh yeah lmao
The hole is at the same place where marika got impaled on the crucifix
True. I think Messmer did that to her.
Godwyn is brother to 2 of the most powerful Omen... What if he had some omen stuff going on that we haven't yet learned about?
It's Miquella corrupted by Mohg!
Okay, but I don't think Fia intended to have an actual child. She gestated a mending rune to supplant the current order with a new order under the Prince of Death
And even if she did, that would imply we would need to complete the questline in order for the kid to be born so that we can see this enemy in the dlc. Miyazaki already said that the dlc doesn’t have much to do with the base game
@@fourdayz1414 Yeah, good point
This can’t be the child you watch fia conceive because her questline is not mandatory
That's no ordinary bow. That's setting up a grade A prime Naruto run.
“Godwyn is coming for you.”
Yeah he is still getting one-shot by a point blank kamehameha
scaling and leveling works different in the dlc
No
its a uterus and vagina. i havent seen other people pointing this out. its so clearly shaped like a uterus
Straight up. I think it might be another aspect of merica. Perhaps the part of her she locked in the land of shadow
Thank you! All I can see is a uterus!
Ur right but I don’t think that’s what they were going for… I mean, like, maybe?
@@harvesterofsubs5561 one of the things that seems to seperate the cultures from before and after the erdtree is birth. During the era of the erdtree people are born from the erdtree, whereas before that time people actually had mothers. I think there could definitely be heavy implications of showing a figure that appears to be from this older culture shaped like a uterus. In the lands between the source of life is a pretty significant and contentious thing
what if were gonna encounter all of the walking mausoleum demi god children in the shadow realm and thats one of them??
That’s what I’ve been hoping.
Cool theory
On the contrary I think this might be Godwyn. Think about it, how come Mogh and Morgott are born omens but not Godwyn? They have the same parents.
In this image it shows omen horns underneath a gold mask… Does it ring a bell? “Godwyn the Golden”, signifies Godwyn is in fact an omen but use some sort of trick to conceal it. And because the shadowland is all about uncovering Marika’s secret, I believe this is one of them
Honestly the more I look at it the more like godwyn it looks
But then if he was an omen why did they send his brothers to live in the sewers but not him ? I'm not saying this can't be godwyn but i think it's more believable that he became like this post death ( or post eclipse if miquella succeds ) rather than always being like this
@lynackhilou4865 that's what I think too. I can't be pre death godwyn as everyone loved him
@@lynackhilou4865honestly, I dont even fully believe what I said but just throwing out a wild idea when it came to my mind. All these guesses just make me look forward to the DLC mann, maybe it’s just a nothing burger in the end but sure is fun to speculate
There are a lot of characters directly related with gold aside from Godwyn. Miquella of the unalloyed gold, Radagon of the Golden Order... Goldmask. However, like Godwyn, none of them have ever had omen horns
I genuinely believe this to be one of the unwanted demigod children of Marika and Godfrey.
I doubt it. The odds of omen children is not particularly high, yet they have already had the twins so another would be pretty unlikely mathematically. Also it would be pretty lazy writing to just tact on another omen child when it's already been done to full effect with morgott and mohg
@@Merlinthehappypig take into account that Marika and radagons children are all cursed (probably because they're literally the same person having children with itself) mohg and morgott are omens, miquella is a baby and malenia is rotted, and the odds of their children being omen (or any abomination for that matter) goes up tremendously.
how do you see that hole in his abdomen and not instantly think of how marika is pierced on that same spot
Looks like fallopian tubes on the sides.
Great video! Love how and your chat analysed this together!
I don't believe this is Godwyn. For one, the omen horns and lack of the Cursemark of Death engraved upon their back. Perhaps this is the god from the age of the Crucible? That small hole in their lower back might have been where they were impaled during crucifixion, similar to the state we find Marika herself in. Maybe that could also explain the strange posture
Just the pose he is in remembers the pose taken by the actual Godwyn's corpse...
it might be somekind of prince of death apostle
I don’t know how anyone can look at this and think it’s Godwyn
i think it's a really just lanky and tall creature that came from the crucible
It matches the candle holding enemies with omen horns, bracers, and matching clothes in the dlc trailer. Could just be a boss of that specific area.
The wound on the back of the new image... Is it's placement a candidate for same location of Marika's exit wound caused by the destined death spear in her womb? No idea how this would tie into the rest of the design/have yet to formulate any further/supporting thoughts, but asked the question/made the association between the wound on the back and the destined death spear in my head almost immediately...
Maybe the bosses of the DLC will contain ubiquitous/near ubiquitous reflections of Marika within (and/or surrounding) other design elements pointing at either the stories of her more relevant demi-god children and/or as relevant/related to Marika's path to God-hood? Just spit balling.
You guys remember the Elden Ring Cinematic trailer? Remember Godwyn having black tears come from his eyes from the death blight? Check out the black tears coming from the mask. Not only that but the arms and literal golden mask kind of tells us who it is.
It's gotta be. Nobody else in the game has arms and is associated with gold. But wait- Goldmask has arms and a golden mask. This is clearly Goldmask, case solved.
@@Galamoth06 haha case solved. I mean, I could be wrong, but certainly related to our boy Godwyn
@@thenickfoxx no, not certain. 21st June you could very likely be proved wrong
@@tylerhawksmoor9601 Tons of people denyed it was Miquella in the very first announcement of the DLC, even tho there were many things pointing out that it was him. All of them were proven wrong after Miyazaki confirmed thatvit was in fact Miquella. Same could happen here. Arm positioning, black tears, and the colour of the skin. Of course it could be totally wrong and that's ok. But there is no need to act like an ass
@@Nemo.404 no offence but that counterargument is completely irrelevant to what I said? if you think I'm an ass you're just very oversensitive, sorry to tell you. in my eyes, you are the one being an ass when you're so adamant about being correct about a theory.
Okay, i have a crazy idea for a new weapon category that may be in the game; *Boomerangs.*
We have already seen what looks like a throwing dagger weapon category, which would not use consumables but rather throwing is part of the moveset, and we have also saw the mounted skeleton in a cave throwing a spinning weapon at us, which turns around and comes back to it's hand, and this guy might be holding another instance of that, a dual wielded boomerang.
There’s literally a boomerang in the trailer.
The cloak looks like the one the old guy was wearing when he was taking the sword from his head. He was royal too. Maybe that's why the creature looks as if he's bowing
Gotta add this dude to the foot tier list
dude in that pose and with the shakrams looks like a stalking bird, proly related to deathbirds,black weapons pale colour, lenky, smoke could make wings
Miyasaki fr said Elden Ring was too nice and colorful lets create some of the most f'd up and terrifying looking creatures this time.
Imagine Mohgs expirement was to defile the beloved emperyean into an omen like him. The hair coming out of one eye like the omen horn going into Mohgs eye, bowing similar to their brothers corpse position.
That's not a bow, that's a battle stance. One of it's stances, it's attacking from below, getting ready to slice or throw the blades.
is it hard to believe that the Land Of Shadows is home to Crucible creatures and culture. So this has to be an Omen, maybe a jester or servant hence the bow. I dont see any connection to Godwin other than position of the arms tbh.
the hole in the boss' back makes me think of a Messmer's implication. Just like we speculated with Marika, He could have impaled this ancient royal figure for obscures reasons (thirst of power mainly)
This is, without a shadow of a doubt, not Godwyn.
It’s the nightmare that haunts the omens dreams
Before u increased the "brightness" (idk what it's called), I thought it was Fia giving birth to godwyn. Like he was clawing his way out of her, and thus the downward pose
I read an article that said people speculated it looks like a uterus on its shape
I think that this will be a stronger common enemy in the dungeon that leads to the lion dancer boss. I also have a theory that this enemy and the lion dancer are not omens at all. But rather worship the crucible and omen kind. The enemy only has horns on its head which is covered by a mask so who’s saying the horns and hair are not also part of the mask. There are no horns anywhere else on its body. Also the lion dancer is similar with the horns seemingly being on the lion mask but not on the dancers underneath. You can make out the shape of a head covered in cloth on the lower figure if you pause at the right moment and there doesn’t seem to be any horns on his head just the lion they are puppeteering. Perhaps this is a culture that celebrates the crucible
Also maybe with how skinny/malnourished the enemy is that the mask/horns weigh to much on his head which explains the weird posture
From everything we´ve seen, the land of shadows seems to has different customs. There appears to be more things connected to the crucible. I think that the custom off cutting horns is not as prevalent there as in the lands between. I'm sure we will see a lot of crucible aspects in the DLC.
The posture of that thing seems very similar to whatever the thing that points you to where catacombs are. Not sure if there's any connection there?
It looks like he’s about to pounce
How do they keep coming up with these ideas ?
Honestly, I reckon it’s the hoslow brothers, the hoslow helmet that he brought up with similar details like the cracked eye belonged to one of the brothers, the creature thing tweeted could be the other brother. Idk tho
Godwyn was an Omen that got his features later in life. And he was the golden so they made a golden face mask to remember his face the days before getting omen-y
I heard it somewhere else first, but the figure's posture - with how they're holding their circle-weapons and the way their back is arched - resembles a uterus. Saw someone in your chat wonder if they could be a female omen since we haven't seen any of them yet... the uterine imagery could back that up. A Mother of all Omen, perhaps? A forgotten parallel to how Marika is the mother of all the Golden Demigods?
Anyone with elbows is going to have arms like that. I don't think it's related to Godwyn at all. I'd be happy to be wrong though. Either way I hope we get sufficient Godwyn related things.
I think this is what is below the Land Of Shadow, the abyss in which Marika discarded her ‘naught’ children/parts of herself that she coldly pruned away because they were of no benefit to the growth of the ‘tree’, and in some cases harmful to it. Her abandoned botched graft of failed scion and stunted bud, etc. The Land of Shadow is calcination, the burning down of all to black so that the cycle can begin anew. Those in the abyss are excluded even from that, so that their traits would not reappear in the next cycle. Marika was ruthless in her grafting/pruning/discarding but her veil was pierced and all of her secrets and shame will be laid bare. Her cardinal sin was disrupting the cycle for her own selfish benefit, and these are the children of her sin in an all-in-one package.
I think I see that mask before it’s one of those guardians who guard the minor erdtrees and it looks like the guardians were corrupted by omen curse
Just some thoughts: So when it comes to the lion omen fight, it’s a representation of the dancing dragon, I’ve heard some speculate it’s a celebratory image of Godwyn which is why it utilizes lightning based off his lore of gaining the power of lighting from dragons and has the gold trimmed robes and long hair. So similarly if this thing is also part of that celebration of him, it would almost make sense to have the golden mask & long hair in his image “Godwyn the Golden” while also assuming his pose 🤔
This could be Godwyn fanclub, kinda like Abyss watchers in DS3.
The stab wound on its back fits with the red spear that pierced Marika when she was crucified in the Erdtree.
That hole on its back reminds me of the Elden Beast grab attack
The beastman of farum azula also use similar weapons as throwing weapons although it's smaller. This looks the same but bigger and more damaging.
The lion dancer boss fight is going to be wild ⛈️
Marika is pierced threw this part of her back. Could be an aspect of hers she banished to the shadow lands. I mean the Tree has the curtains of her bedroom around it.
I feel like this boss still invokes a feeling of death blight/those who live in death but not godwyn. Like an omen that was also killed in sould but not body, maybe from when the gloam eyed queen weilded destined death
Because you only need to kill mogh and Radahn, we gotta take that into consideration for connections to certain characters and other events/bosses like things like Fia’s quest
Wild Guess from me and that would be, that the Thing in the Picture is Godwyn, but within the Shadow Realms due to the Fia Incident granting Godwyn a Second Life as "The Prince of Death" within the Shadow Realms, also both of the Weapons symbolize the Fact that Ranni and Godwyn died the the same time so it could stand for each Cursemark of Death one as "Rannis" and one as "Godwyns"
I think this is Miquilla after being given Omen Blood within the cocoon. It looks reproductive organs but also similar to a butterfly with the chakrams being the wings. Its a mix between older deformed Miqulla with Omen body parts.
the way they make it bend over looks like what they have done to the albinaurics
His weapons kinda gives me Farum Azula Beastman weapons vibe. Like it could have been made by the same blacksmith. The mask resembles minor Erdtree guardian mask imo
The blades of this guy kinda reminds me of the blade design of the gladiator axe.
“My back is broken, spinal”-Mike Tyson
Elden Uterus, that Godwynussy is making act unwise.
Fk do these corny jokes cringe the vibe
@@Rich_P_Anya no u
I belive this charecter or boss, is somehow related to the shackles, the ones made for mohg and margit, he looks like an omen as well so maybe he is in a way related to the shackles
Hopefully these bosses aren't too triggering and attractive for you AgtJake.
It's an omen. Not Godwyn, the skin is grey in texture but the art has lighting to add a dramatic effect. The horns are protruding in sporadic ways. The mask seems similar to the golden tree monks with the spears. I believe these are them but with a more warped body. They were the guards of the erdtrees. They already started to grow sprouts of poisonous plants on their bodies as corruption fettered through the lands between. In a land without light from the erdtrees, maybe omens are created. As we've seen the main boss is one. And multiple characters or bosses seem to mimic omens with horns they've taken. I think the land is ravaged from war between omens and another race. This other race has taken into their culture to capture, enslave, and cut off the horns of omens to use in making masks or ceremonial outfits. They could also be doing experiments. And I think the main villain was the cause of said war. Like a snake he swayed sides until it collapsed and he took the opportunity by the throat. He sits on a throne that does not belong to him. I'm excited to find out the mysteries of SoTET
It has the horns like morgot and mog. Maybe one of mesmers children
Or morgot/ moghs kid
When I saw it, I thought it looked a bit like Knight of Zamor. But without armor, with horns and wicked weapon.
is Godwyn related to Omen? i mean his other siblings are omen... so he can be. But i thought he was more related to Deathblight
He’s not bowing he taking the same pose the Godwyn under the tree is
Maybe his crooked arms are a manifestation of Godwyn just like the crabs with Godwyns eyes on their back
YO... the Crucible Scale is 1 : 1 for the right side (picture left) of the mask.
Investing in chiropractic clinic or something like that in Lands between seems like great business idea
I think it has huge Darkness Falls vibes if anyones seen thst horror movie. I think this boss could be a one, or one of many, failed clones of godwyn after he died. And these bastards born improperly in the shadow of the erdtree are omens which make sense
Oh boy, the legendary message applies here "but whole"
Godwyn’s back looks like a “dark Elden ring” symbol idk if y’all noticed that or not yet
If it's not Godwyn, I don't think it's directly related to Godwyn. The posture is incredibly similar, but there's no reason his followers would be bent into that shape like he had been after death. Godwyn is arranged like he was hung up on a wall by his arms and left to dangle, and that's a very different position to what this guy is doing
Maybe this is the other godwynn under stormveil the one with a third eye
The gauntlets kinda look like the godskin apostle bracelets though that might be a stretch because to me it looks like a subtle similarity
the cloth looks really similar to the old man with the golden spikes
Of all the masks in game it reminds me most of the Minor Erdtree guardians with the swordspears
Hey Jake, I have a theory that I’d like you to cover in a future video. I believe the parts of dragon barrow near Gurranq’s lair is connected to farum azula. It has the same statues and the bridge is even named farum greatbridge. And also, there are some dead dragon corpses that looked suspiciously like ancient dragons. So yeah, I believe dragon arrow is somehow connected to farum azula. Could you cover this in a future video.
Chopping off the horns was a golden order practice.
These enemies are from another culture who might venerate the horns and omens as a sign of a blessing from the crucible version of the erdtree.
I think he is bowing before a dance/fight/dual. Don't think it's Godwyn though.
I don't think it's bowing, because it's feet indicate it's moving towards the player, when you bow you hold still.
I really hope we get those weapons With a chakram type move set from kingdoms of amular
The mask might be reminiscent of the famous Mycenaean mask - the Mask of Agamemnon
One last thing I think that's god wind the stab in the back long hair turned silver and the mask to hide his face
What if thats just the physical embodiment of the crucible. Seems there are a lot of references to it maybe we fight the crucible itself idk. Could be cool
It's Merika , I think look it the spear wound on her side and her hair style if it was unbraided on the one side
Maybe it is not just smoke. It could also be sleep mist what surrounds this character.
