Jus gunna try and stop any speculation before it starts. THIS IS NOT GODWYN
LoreI want that hip flexibility!
Try finger but hole
Man I hope we get new message options and templates, I wanna try fingers in new places man
Try finger pee hole
Graceless Tarnished

Emboldened by the aim of ambition
Foooooooowl tarnished

You called?
What you're saying is: his feet are not directly connected to his head???
🤓um actually, that is hamstring flexibility
My sciatic nerve would be screaming. My man definitely does his elephant walks.
OH! First time seeing this and I thought those were wings.
Same, I realize they are badass chakrams now
Chakrams are cool, and so underused. I liked using them in kingdoms of amalur.
If they do give us Chakrams in ER there better be lots of pointless awesome twirling while using them.
Reminds me of my bdo character, i missed her
I can’t wait to go full Xena mode with dual chakrams.
Ayiyiyiyiyiyi
Sun Shang Xiang in Elden Ring??
Bruh gimme those Dynasty Warriors Moon Blades!
Or that mask!
B-b-b-b-but he’s gooooooolden!
Not his hair though! Literally the only thing that needed to be for this to maybe be godwyn isn't
I know, also no indication that godwyn was an omen or omen-curse-adjacent, I was just being contrary as a goof.
There is indication that he WAS NOT afflicted by the Omen curse, as seen in the story cinematic and the game’s intro.
It would actually be so fucking cool if Godwin's image we see and know is just a fake in some way (projection maybe, or illusion) and he was afflicted just like both his brothers
That’d be stupid because it makes the narrator unreliable along with the intro video
I'm not saying they should do a "gotcha he ain't dead", I'm just saying his appearance as "the Golden" could be a fake, and that mask and pose could be alluding to that, if that is a big secret that no one but his immediate family knew, why would the narrator (both know or say since it isn't relevant to your story)?
Yeah I know haha
Hell yeah, Friday’s the day for goofs 🫡
Just some New boot goofin
Boot goof BooooOooOoogggiieeee
Wouldn’t it be the day for Fri ?
I mean morgott and mohg are his brothers so kinda omen crucible adjacent.
Edit: mogh
Wasn't there a theory that everything golden becomes silver in shadow realm or something?
I didn't see that? Where's that from
Im trying to find it too, but its lost in the subreddit.
There are golden scarabs, silver scarabs, gold foot, silver foot. There is a trend, definetely.
To be fair, Gold and Silver stuff being for Exp / Drop Rates has been on par since at least the very first Dark Souls. Covetous Silver Serpent Ring gave 20% more souls. Covetous Gold Serpent Ring Boost Item Discovery. And that’s in DS 1-3. It’s not unique to Elden Ring so don’t think that would be a huge thing tbh.
Welly gold turned to silver is a small niche archetype of stuff happening in the lands between. Maybe this guy is the reason, and miquella seems to be tied to that phenomenon. But I don't think he is Miquella.
My first thought was an omen Zamor.
Spindly with the mask, and I think that looks like frost coming off those weapons.
Oh, that's good.
I didn't see it until you said it, but now it is all I can see.
Yeah, even the way the weapons are designed reminds me of the Zamora curved swords design
Perhaps some of the contempt for the omen comes from the fall of the zamor people. Maybe the zamor civilization fell apart because they had an omen king/champion, and they somehow were responsible for their people's demise.
Oh that would be freaking awesome. The Zamor are my favorite group in Elden ring. I love wearing their armor and using the Zamor curved sword and just doing a Zamor knight cosplay. I think they have the sickest drip in this whole game.
100% a Zamor; compare them side to side
Oh great… just what we needed - another boss that inflicts frost build up
It’s bernahl ready to sell us some more boiled prawn
You're thinking of Blackguard Big Boggart. Bernahl is the ash of war vendor / recusant you meet at Volcano Manor.
Sadly I made this mistake twice yesterday
!RemindMe July 1, 2024
my guess is still that it’ll be the last phase of that one boss we saw in the trailer, that looked like Chinese dragon costume with people/a person\ inside controlling it. based on the foot(looks exactly similar) & the robe thing they’re both wearing.
Maybe one of the guys wearing the costume, since you can see at least two pairs of feet.
My money is on it being one of- if not the very first Omen.
the posture, ice and mask makes me think he might be related to the zamor knights.
Might be both. A zamor hero born an omen
that would be pretty cool!
Oh god the hp pool and poise
zamomen
Please Michael zaki let this be it. Currently running a dex/int build with frost ashes of war. This would be awesome
Nah he’s just from the Boreal Valley.
Ah giving me Nam flashbacks
Ice? To me it looks like an amalgamation of miquella and mogh, though it might simply be an omen worshipping miquella/marika through the use of the mask
Counter point, maybe it’s the thing that torments omens in their dreams. We know the DLC is (at least partially) an area heavily related to sleep. My money is on it being some type of omen boogeyman.
I shall back this theory.
What if it's both the first omen and the omen boogeyman?
And then the question of why its sealed in the land of shadow. Complete conjecture but I wonder if Marika sealed it there to try and prevent the spread of the omen curse? And it infiltrating the sleep of omens is a side effect/it's power despite being contained.
So much fun speculation to do
Could be, but I’m not sure why an omen would torment other omens. They seem to stick together. Makes more sense that some omen-like thing (outer god maybe?) would be doing it.
maybe he's just a dick, that's why he torments them
So a…certified boogeyman?
This is the superior theory, although I kinda doubt both of 'em tbh
That would be cool, but I don't know I would like to imagine the first Omen to be way more fucked up, like a mega Mogh levels of horn tangles across the body
That's my take as well. Perhaps a curse placed on Marikas family's transformed adult whomever this was into a hybrid
the firs omen,,,, morgit,,,
It's obviously Morgot a third time. Named Margret.
No it's Goldmask :)
“…”
“…”
“…”
“…”
The ankle braces and wrist bracers do have a compellingly similar look and design to the goldmask set.
👉🏼 ☝🏼
Could be frost, would be neet since the other omens we fight use blood flame
But I think morgott was just as skinny as this guy, so the zamora relation is unessesary
Yeah now that I'm thinking about it, lots of factions have face masks.
I definitely see that could be steam from his bloodflame.
Dementia
this probably just a normal ass enemy, they not revealing bosses like this
Miyazaki coughs
Fanbase: OMG Sickness magic is gonna be in the DLC!!
Lmao like fr bruh, this man farts and people SWEAR thats a link to miquella
Must be final form
Good lord, you're right...
Patches has infinite forms and is a multi-versal coward. But it could be a form of patches. I wouldn’t doubt that.
The true ancient deity
Multi-versal coward?! Not in DS3, he was so dope in The Ringed City
Also he was such a Chad that he got there, basically outliving anyone else
Npc named Zapp 😭😭😭
Showed it to my friend. She said it looked like a uterus. My mind was blown. I am now considering all possible symbolic connections between omen and the concept of life and birth
Maybe an omen of the Crucible? Not THE first omen but one of the first omen, maybe even the first Omenkiller, Mother of their nightmares.
No the first Omen Killer was called Rollo. We can pick up his spirit ash.
ooh, are omens made from sexy birth instead of erdtree birth? sinful, horny sexy birth.
Where can I sign up for omen production?
Bruh giving birth to an omen must be outright deadly unless you are Marika
Same
That’s what I thought too when I first saw it. I’m very new to the lore but does Marika have any parents that we know of?
All we know is that she´s a Numen and that she isn´t originally from the Land Between. Pretty sure we will know more with the incoming DLC. Can´t wait!!
Dung Eater ending is canon!!!
Royal Omen Revenant, because we all love Omens and Royal Revenants ...
Well duh, everyone knows that’s Eochian singing sensation Ricky Ringblade.
You’re right, it’s clearly Kenneth Haight
What if.. and hear me out... what if it's not a known character? Maybe it's a new one? THE AUDACITY
Thats Ovaria the Omen Womb. Duh.
Morgott & Mohg's secret triplet? Those are the only demigods without a triplet now since we're assuming Messmer is Malenia & Miquella's sibling.
Also I've yet to see anyone mention it but their left (our right) horns kind of look like the shape of deathbird depictions, namely the sacrifical axe. The omen twins were "cursed" children so maybe one got the chop. Not based on anything just throwing it out there
They have a sibling though. Godwyn is Morgott and Mohgs brother.
I could get behind this theory especially knowing miquellas and Melanias third triplet messmer is in the shadow realm too
But the biggest thing saying this character isn't that important is that they just randomly posted the photo of him
If we're gonna go the Mohg/Morgott route I'd much rather just have it be Godwyn's true self and the one we know being false
Reckon they’ll fuck our shit sideways regardless.
I'm seeing a lot of 'dance' themes around the enemies of this DLC, first that omen lion, then the red woman in that blue field and now this.
Uterus shaped lookin boss
Gonna give birth to it's 2nd phase.
It took me a 2nd glance about 3 hours later when I noticed the uterus shape. That's a big hint
Creepy uterus
Look at these feet. Lecker.
Looks like 2nd phase of that one lion boss tbh.
Was my first though aswell considering we didnt see any other "omen-like" bosses in the dlc. Rewatched the trailer and couldnt find any matching clothes/gear. Only thing similar is the feet idk
They brought back the dancer from ds3
Gold mask hit the gym while we've been waiting
Brah is that Ranni?!
It’s the formless mother!
Colossal whips
They don't really look like whips
If you believe hard enough, they kinda look like the urumi whips. I'll just sit and huff on my copium until release.
I am hoping we get great whips!
They confirmed 8 new weapon categories so who knows
It’s the barnacle dancer
Can't be because Godwyn is dead for one, secondly his corpse is fused to the Erdtree roots located in Deeproot Depths, so unless he revived, broke free, and left it's probably not him.
But the most glaring detail though are those Omen horns in the image. Mohg and Morgott were born as Omens and I haven't read any lore suggesting they're created by any other means outside of being that way at birth. Godwyn was not born as an Omen. So unless some new process is detailed in the upcoming DLC, there's no way it can possibly be Godwyn.
I agree exactly
Female omen or the first omen or both. Reminds me of Dancer from ds3.
Wow wish I was that flexible
No It’s Scissorix
Scissor me timbers
F E E T
My best guess is that this is a new omen type enemy like the ones in the sewers
It has Dancer vibes
I don't think it's Godwyn- BUT I could see the theories make sense. It has lower-body-only robes like Godwyn during his assassination and Omen horns just like his two brothers. What if Marika was distraught by her third Omen Son and excorcised his Omen half to create the perfect golden child- Or something idfk just spitting words.
I mean, Godwyn isn’t an omen so how would someone think this is him?
The arms is why. Im not so sure it's godwyn but it's the exact same pose as godwyn and it's not really a natural pose, godwyns are like that because he was being held up by his arms when he got black knifed. I dunno why this guy is doing the arms...maybe he's just like 'hey look at my cool weapons!'
This is Messmer
Clearly it's Miquella. You can tell because he's mine and mine alone.
Jack-O pose
Yeah it's the gloam eyed queen obviously
Actually, it's Melina.
Nvm it's Miquella!
Duh, it’s Miquella who is Melina who is Marika. /s
Since the dlc is taking place in what i understand to be a "Mirrored" version of the existing game maybe this is Morgott. But i may be understanding the dlc incorrectly
Saint Trina?
I want the weapon and mask
Even if Godwyn is in the DLC he’s definitely not being showed off for the first time in promo art of all places
No, this is Patrick
But that won't stop Ziostorm from making a video every other day with this theory 🤣
Hear me out..
It's the mirrored portrait of the king that's been going around. Lmao. /s
the sheer amount of people on the post on instagram saying it's godwyn is insane. to me it sort of looks like a variant of the enemies that were holding the candelabras in the trailer. same arm braces, similar horns & hair. it also looks a lot like like a tree guardian hair + mask wise
face down , ass up.
Definitely not, why would they reveal GODWYN in a random tweet?
yeah no it wouldn't make sense for this to be godwyn. godwyn isn't an omen.
Idk how it could be Godwyn. Mf is a fish tree.
Why does this monstrosity seems to have the same vibes as Manus in DS1 😭
I wouldn't be surprised if it was or if it wasnt, but it is defo a uterus.
They might have some relation to Godwyn, but there is no way they actually are Godwyn
It’s the guy hiding under omen-lion’s costume
I wonder if this is the 2nd phase of that Chinese dragon looking boss we saw in the trailer. Like he takes his costume off, and this is what's underneath.
Awn cmon guys, we ve been through this, it is OBVIOUS it is the Dancer of the Boreal Valley, It has a weird posture, two wielding dex weapon and a cool mask.
Obviously it’s not godwyn, we see godwyns body in the game..
BuT lOoK aT tHeIr ArMs, It HaS tO bE gOdWyN
Please realize stating this isn't Godwyn is in fact 🙌speculation
I think the swirl weapons have something to do with Marika and her veil.
The gold mask and robe are interesting.
I can’t wait to dive into this dlc!
they always uncover the final boss, Kos, Gael and Isshin Ashina, so either the final boss is Miquella or Godwyn, but it won't be this guy as well as Messmer imo
Messmer will most likely be a side end game boss like Melania
They've been used in advertisement the same
You're going to get downvoted but you're 100% right the poses aren't even similar lmao.
Godywn's corpse is kneeling not straight legged, his palms are out not the back of his hands, he's not bent at the waist like this guy is. Godwyn's head is hanging down, this guy's head is angled up. It's like, mildly reminiscent at best lol.
Also THIS GUY ISN'T A GIANT DEAD FISH
Lmao idk how people make the comparison
If you squint your eyes, you'll see the blades are actually the fish eyeballs, Godfrey confirmed
Ok which family member of yours works in Fromsoftware?
AND ITS NOT MIQUELLA OR ANYONE ELSE EITHER
It is obvorusly the Glorm Eye Queen
Glorm
Godwyn wasn't an Omen so anyone trying to say it's him doesn't get the lore. He was the only one of Godfrey and Marika's children who was not an Omen.
This reminded me of the time someone who claimed to have beaten the game was insisting that the fire giant was Radagon And spouting of their idiotic lore theories
I swear some people’s media literacy skills are garbage.
Those feet….mmmm
wait what is this???

But...now hear me out.
What if it is?
I don't know even what it could be but I know for sure that ffs it's scary
Picture source ? First time i saw it. First i thought it was a fan art or ai generating (a good one). Maybe i missed this since i dont look for dlc content online to not spoil me...
Elden ring posted it on Twitter
What if everyone had a shadow form and this is godwyn's.
Which means there could be crucible versions of all of Marika's children... including human Mohg and Margott
I don't care who it is, I just want their weapon
