Ever looked at the bulky helmets and garb of Elden Ring Nightreign‘s Nightfarers? Well, wonder no more, as one YouTuber has taken the mask off and shown the little details hiding underneath the coverings of Elden Ring Nightreign’s cast.
YouTuber Zullie the Witch posted a behind-the-mask look at Nightreign’s cast on June 5. All of them have distinct models, with some surprising details under the hood.
Some are just little curiosities, like Ironeye’s face being fully modeled from the front. Zullie also notes that the Nightfarers’ eye colors change depending on their skin. Other characters have some fun ties to other FromSoftware games, like the Duchess’ similarity to Dark Souls 3’s Firekeeper.
Revealing the face of characters like Ironeye or Executor is neat, but the real question I’m sure you’re asking is whether the avian Guardian is truly a bird, or if he has a human face underneath? Well, the answer is that yes, he is truly a bird. The Revenant also hides a skull beneath her porcelain facade, though, so there are still some surprises in store for those who haven’t seen them in-game yet.
While there aren’t any profound lore discoveries to be made here, they do add a little extra character to each of the Nightfarers, and show off FromSoft’s attention to detail, even down to the tiny things that would probably go unnoticed in most players’ runs of the game.
The one strange note is Wylder, who does not seem to have a face model at all. This might just be a design quirk, but it’s interesting to imagine there might be some deeper lore reason for his under-armor presence remaining a mystery.
Elden Ring Nightreign players are slowly getting to grips with the game, and some are already completing impressive challenges. This week, IGN reported on one player who used the Wraith Calling Bell clear the final boss of Elden Ring Nightreign.
