Demigods are important, incredibly powerful figures in Elden Ring and its expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, each descended from Queen Marika.

There are 12 Outer Gods in Elden Ring and Shadow of the Erdtree, including the Formless Mother, The Sealed God of Scarlet Rot, and more.

Items, artwork, and other clues in Shadow of the Erdtree reveal possible connections to the Elden Ring NPC Shabriri and explain his past.

Status effects in Elden Ring include Poison, Scarlet Rot, Blood Loss, Frostbite, Sleep, Madness, and Death Blight, and each was expanded in SOTE.

The bloodfiends are a new enemy in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, and many items provide lore descriptions that connect to the Lands Between.

Shadow of the Erdtree items such as Nanaya’s Torch and the Madding Hand, and enemies like Midra, expand the Frenzied Flame lore of Elden Ring.
