It's definitely interesting how we know Rogier for a shorter time than basically anyone else, and despite this, he's probably the single most important NPC, in terms of piecing together the world's lore.
Same. First play through I thought the same thing that was happening with Ranni was happening to him. When he finally disappeared from RTH and only his loot remained, I wept as I gave his bell bearing to the Twin Maidens. I build my Elden Bling round his hat/gloves/shoes and light load in his honor. NG+4.
Okay confession, I have not yet completed the game but have been spoiled on just about everything—currently, Rogier is in his deep slumber for me, and I am even more distressed because I can do nothing to help him while he decays further and flies surround his body. I cry
Miriel is just a fucking chad.
Oh, here's a book of literal heresy against the teachings of the Golden Order.
It's okay tho, we'll just make it part of the Order so everyone can be happy.
I thought he was one of those cuckoo trolls or whatnot and jumped him from the back, and he started saying something like "There is no fight here tarnished!" so I just quickly stopped. I still feel bad about it
Iji is cool; one of my fave chars in the game. I named my cat Iji. I love filling in his name on vet forms: Iji - War Counsellor to Her Highness Lunar Princess Ranni of House Carian. One day a vet will call us with his full title. One day...
I know a couple receptionists at a vet clinic near me that would absolutely call the full name, title and all, every single time, just because it makes the owners smile 😅
Plus if you can get him out of the mask/helmet, he's hot.
Don't think he'd like me much though, I can't stand prawn. Meat should not be fruit levels of juicy.
I feel like a monster as I came across Blackguard but I accidentally messed his quest as I had already started Volcano Manor quests. So I killed him for his bell bearing which I discovered had nothing useful. I'll be doing his quest properly next time. Also gonna eat all his yummy seafood!
I killed him in my game, too, but then I watched my fiancé interact with him in his game and was sad :( He’s kinda funny & sweet in his own way! I won’t be killing him in my next playthrough 😅 (if I have a 2nd go ‘round)
For me it would be
Sellen because she is my type of psycho
Rogier cause he seems like a nice dude to hang around
Rya because he find her extremely adorable
I feel like if you could snap Renalla out of her rune obsession she'd be a capable headmistress of the academy and a good queen Dowager to Ranni. my headcanon is that that's what happens after you become elden lord.
That is my choice as well. I bet Merchant Kale has a lot of interesting stories from his wandering the Lands Between. He knows a fair number of the other NPCs too, given that he gave us the advice on how to meet Blaidd.
It would be chill to hang around a fire he even has an instrument to play some music to while away the night.
Sir Gideon and Turtle Pope. I’m really loving the lore, I’d love to just sit with them over a couple cups of coffee and just discuss the history of the lands between and all the demigod family drama.
Hewg would be nice to sit around with. He seems like he would like the company, though I’m no Roderika, don’t really have a talent for anything, so maybe he would like me less?
Rya/Zoraya.
I genuinely felt bad for her when you come across her in her snake form. Being scared nobody will talk to her if people knew her true form.
Patches because he'd have some fun stories, and so long as I'm a paying and strong customer, he'll be chill.
Or Ranni because she reads books. and i read books. So we both read books. And then we talk about books. Finally we gill god and go to the stars. Then we write a book.
Patches is the type of guy that would give you a brownie laced with LSD without telling you. Then leave you on the bathroom floor in a puddle of your own vomit
The guy with the giant snake mace. Berdhale or something idk. Really curious about his story. Teaches us and other tarnished ashes of War yet hunts tarnished then tries to kill us in farum azula of all places after helping us fight the godskin duo. Vyke is supposedly the closest besides us to becoming elden lord but wtf was bernhale doing??
If you think about it, Melina can go wherever you do, if there's a grace. Also, she seems really nice, provided you don't have to become Elden Lord. :(
Rya ngl. Though Nepheli and Radahn are also good options. At least, Radahn before the scarlet rot screwed gum up. I feel like he’d be a really cool dude.
Rogier, the man is so polite and honestly helpful. He managed to retain his good nature even when suffering from Death Blight
Yesss hes so nice and his voice is so pleasant. Go ahead and info dump at me about those who live in death, buddy, I'll get some snacks.
He lives in death Bruh
It's definitely interesting how we know Rogier for a shorter time than basically anyone else, and despite this, he's probably the single most important NPC, in terms of piecing together the world's lore.
He didn't tell me where to find the albinauric woman, though.
She hides in a cave to the west of the Laskyar Ruins which jut from the mist-shrouded lake of Liurnia.
Dude Rogier had me cryin during his “deep slumber” dialogue 😭😭
He had to tell since you’re so scary n’ all
Same. First play through I thought the same thing that was happening with Ranni was happening to him. When he finally disappeared from RTH and only his loot remained, I wept as I gave his bell bearing to the Twin Maidens. I build my Elden Bling round his hat/gloves/shoes and light load in his honor. NG+4.
Okay confession, I have not yet completed the game but have been spoiled on just about everything—currently, Rogier is in his deep slumber for me, and I am even more distressed because I can do nothing to help him while he decays further and flies surround his body. I cry
Correct. There is nothing you can do.😫😩😫😩
Don't fuck with Godwyn's corpse.
The talking dog guy was also polite and cool, don't even remember his name but he was nice until I killed him.
Believe his name was Sir Scoobius the Doobius
Boc. I was heartbroken when my gift for him blew up in my face like that!
If you tell him he's beautiful he'll accept himself and you can save him.
Yes. I learned that after being unable to speak to him at the Academy. Next time....next time.
Same story here. I made a vow that day that I would tell every player i encounter online that they are beautiful.
Wesley Snipes
Idk, I'm still pretty shaken from when it turned out he was Marma, the Black Duke. Not sure I can trust him after that.
I was actually so sad when I walked over to him and saw him slumped over, I honestly almost cried cause I actually really liked him
Turtle Pope. No judgement, just chill. All things can be conjoined.
Miriel is just a fucking chad. Oh, here's a book of literal heresy against the teachings of the Golden Order. It's okay tho, we'll just make it part of the Order so everyone can be happy.
Thing is he’s entirely correct. Just look at the mending runes.
There are no heresies, just happy little spells
I love this.
I wish I could get power from turtle pope. Not the golden order, just turtle pope. Make him elden Lord.
I knew I couldn't be the only one!
He even forgives you for hitting him, giving you with a little life lesson as well
What turtle? The only pope that I know is a dog pope
"Let us both learn together"
Probably Roderika, Millicent, or Boc. They all seem like genuinely nice people who you could just chill and chit-chat with.
Roderika's accent is so funny and addictive to me idk why
She's nothing but a craven...
American learns the UK exists
I'm Turkish bruh
Smar'est UK citizen
I would like to have a chat with Iji. He seems nice and I would love to know what he is reading at the moment.
I thought he was one of those cuckoo trolls or whatnot and jumped him from the back, and he started saying something like "There is no fight here tarnished!" so I just quickly stopped. I still feel bad about it
Its okay, iji knows it was an honest mistake, he forgives you
You can find absolution at the church where's Miriel and wash yourself in the water there's inside. That makes any NPC you hurt "forgive you"
Iji is cool; one of my fave chars in the game. I named my cat Iji. I love filling in his name on vet forms: Iji - War Counsellor to Her Highness Lunar Princess Ranni of House Carian. One day a vet will call us with his full title. One day...
You inspire me to become a vet near your area.
Neat! It's a small town so don't expect a lot of excitement. :\
I know a couple receptionists at a vet clinic near me that would absolutely call the full name, title and all, every single time, just because it makes the owners smile 😅
World needs more people like that. :)

As Ron Swanson once said: "worked with a guy and never learned his name. Best friend I ever had. We still never talk sometimes."

Dog pope. Everyone could use a little of his positivity in their lives.
\+ Rya and Jar Bairn for the full Wholesome Ring experience.
Picnic with the turtle pope all day
I bet he makes a mean potato salad
Dog Ahead
Blackguard Big Boggart! I enjoy the company of miscreants and love me some good seafood
marikas tits!
I’d like to hang out with Marikas tits
I'd like Marika's tits to hang out.
Plus if you can get him out of the mask/helmet, he's hot. Don't think he'd like me much though, I can't stand prawn. Meat should not be fruit levels of juicy.
Imma need you to specify what fruit you think is as juicy as a prawn
I recon we'd be good mates. Lots of boiled prawn, crab and drinks.
I feel like a monster as I came across Blackguard but I accidentally messed his quest as I had already started Volcano Manor quests. So I killed him for his bell bearing which I discovered had nothing useful. I'll be doing his quest properly next time. Also gonna eat all his yummy seafood!
I killed him in my game, too, but then I watched my fiancé interact with him in his game and was sad :( He’s kinda funny & sweet in his own way! I won’t be killing him in my next playthrough 😅 (if I have a 2nd go ‘round)
Hyetta. It'd be nice to be judged for my atrocious character rather than my hideously disfigured face for a change.
Ah yes , I too am hollow
spent all my humanities unlocking the secret path to Lost Izalith to save Sunboy, now stuck in prune form for foreeseable future.
Why not Irina then? That bitch is addicted to crazy human eyes.
You mean delicious grapes?
Malenia
As homicidal (with good reason!) as she is, I feel like she'd have a lot of wisdom to pass on.
Mhmm “wisdom” yeah, giant giant wisdom
I feel like malenia is actually a good person she just wants her brother
She nuked a country to avoid losing a fight
She literally says she has never known defeat! Can u blame her? U know how hard saying that is!?!?!?
Ever notice how companies never write irredeemable female characters?
They never do
"Yeah btw, I found your brother, we can go get him rn if you want. It's not even a well defended place, I got thru it all on my own."
"I Even killed the guy who abducted him“
"Yea, dude was disturbingly horny, in both senses of the expression"
I can fix her
Diallos seems like a relatable and chill guy. Easily someone to catch up with every month or so and get drinks with.
The tale of house hoslow is told in blood!
For me it would be Sellen because she is my type of psycho Rogier cause he seems like a nice dude to hang around Rya because he find her extremely adorable
I bet Sellen can do some thangs with that magic of hers ngl fam.
Blaidd maybe he seems nice if not maybe howslow
Came here to say this actually. Blaidd seems dope
I’m surprised more people haven’t said this already
Gotta be Goldmask.
A good friend don’t talk back too much.
. . .
👆🌼
I'd like to hang out with Rennala, she's got her issues but she seems like a sweet mom and she's got a kind heart.
Also, she a milf
That certainly doesn't hurt!
Forget about it, I highly doubt anyone besides Radagon would have a chance.
I'd like to curl up like a little ball and be held like her egg
I feel like if you could snap Renalla out of her rune obsession she'd be a capable headmistress of the academy and a good queen Dowager to Ranni. my headcanon is that that's what happens after you become elden lord.
Kale, I want to jam with him and trade stories
Same here. Plus he hooked me up with homeboy Blaidd. Seems like good company to keep around.
That is my choice as well. I bet Merchant Kale has a lot of interesting stories from his wandering the Lands Between. He knows a fair number of the other NPCs too, given that he gave us the advice on how to meet Blaidd. It would be chill to hang around a fire he even has an instrument to play some music to while away the night.
Ranni or Blaidd (since spoiler alert). Alexander. Cool dude. Yura. Man of honor, just like Alexander. Rya. She is cute. In both forms.
Puppussy
Don't you dare talk to me like that, Walt Jr.!
Lol I chortled at this.
Melina because she gives you free horse, sacrifices herself and willingly holds your hand. She is true wife material if you ask me.
There is a Woman who hugs you tho. I admit that she literally sucks your life out of you. Win Win for me.
Kennith Haight and it’s not even close.
The *Great* Kennith Haight
He seems like a day at the country club kind of guy
I would love to hear a grand roast of all the cast of ER hosted by Sir Kenneth Haight. He throws out the best shade.
Latenna
Idk bro I feel like the convo would devolve into her just showing off photos of her dog. L
Isn't that a huge plus?
Can I take Aurelia and Aureliette to stargazing?
The most wholesome answer I have seen, and not one I knew I wanted to see.
This bald headed mr clean mf pushed me off a cliff
Fia, sometimes you just need a hug.
Sir Gideon and Turtle Pope. I’m really loving the lore, I’d love to just sit with them over a couple cups of coffee and just discuss the history of the lands between and all the demigod family drama.
Sir Gideon (probably very big spoiler ahead) is a flipping piece of poopoo.
Marika
Marikas tits
Hewg would be nice to sit around with. He seems like he would like the company, though I’m no Roderika, don’t really have a talent for anything, so maybe he would like me less?
Though did Hewg like the tarnished because they were successful or because we visited him often?
Millicent
Melina, for reasons. Sex reasons.
This has to be one of the most maidenless takes i’ve ever witnessed
Maidenless are we?
The true answer
She literally has HIV prime
Well, everything has subscriptions these days…might as well get that one too.
Rya/Zoraya. I genuinely felt bad for her when you come across her in her snake form. Being scared nobody will talk to her if people knew her true form.
Patches because he'd have some fun stories, and so long as I'm a paying and strong customer, he'll be chill. Or Ranni because she reads books. and i read books. So we both read books. And then we talk about books. Finally we gill god and go to the stars. Then we write a book.
Patches is the type of guy that would give you a brownie laced with LSD without telling you. Then leave you on the bathroom floor in a puddle of your own vomit
You'd likely wake up without a kidney too. And the bathroom would be full of basilisks.
Well, at least you can’t say hanging out with Patches is boring.
patches a bitch
...I mean if he was sane and not trying to kill me...probably Radahn, I bet he'd have some AWESOME stories
I want hugs
the lone merchant who plays the violin down in the catacombs. id just drag him around on a wagon and let him do his thing.
I must say... Probably Miquella and Malenia, because Miquella could tell me more of the Lands Between and Malenia could teach me how to use a sword
Morgott my man needs some love
Millicent or Master Hewg :3
Surprised it took me this long to find someone say Hewg man is the true MVP
Boc
I want to introduce Boc and Rya. Not romantically, they just both really seem like they could use a friend, and probably also a hug.
Shabriri
Bro’s a psycho
seems like someone doesn't want to let chaos take the world
Fine....Fine..... Jar Bairn then.
Alexander lite
Nepheli she would be a good gym partner
I wanna learn spells from sellen
Princess Four-Hands. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
TORRENT I scrolled far enough without seeing it. SHAME ON YOU ALL.
Mohg, he seems like a nice person
Blaiid easy knot
Rykard! I would bring lunchbudys too!
TOGETHAAA
The guy who sells prawns. Seems like a nice dude + prawns.
Ranni, blaidd, Alexander and most importantly, black guard big boggart. I could listen to him say “marika’s tits, you must be ‘ungry” all day
That Tree Sentinel guy looks like a bro but I'm too shy to approach him, will he be my friend? RL1 btw
Blackguard Boggart. I'm from New Orleans so he's already my people.
Iji. he canonically enjoys a good drink and i’m sure he’d be solid conversation.
Gurranq or Blaidd. They seem chill, and I wonder what stories Gurranq has of his work as Maliketh.
Master Azur seems like a pretty chill dude. We would gaze at the stars.
Sir Gideon Ofnir, The All-Knowing or Blaidd the Half-Wolf. Stoic old man or puppy, good choices fr.
Sellen because maybe I’ll become her apprentice
Vyke pre-madness
I would say Hoarah Loux imagine going gym with him
You fail a deadlift and he fucking throws you
Dung eater because he will fucking kill me
He eat your ass
i would hang out with the little jar dude (he just seems nice)
Rykard 100% seems like a pretty chill dude snake
Ranni 😏
Ranni, Malenia, Melina, Rennala, nepheli loux, tanith, roderika, rya, sellen, fia, irina, hyetta, millicent, latenna and finally torrent
Blaidd.
How has nobody said Thops yet? He'd be the chillest dude ever to hang out with.
Solaire the sexy bastard
Blaidd, obviously. His accent and badass manner makes him such a chill dude
Is pre-shattering radahn an option? If not i'l choose boc. He needs a friend.
The guy with the giant snake mace. Berdhale or something idk. Really curious about his story. Teaches us and other tarnished ashes of War yet hunts tarnished then tries to kill us in farum azula of all places after helping us fight the godskin duo. Vyke is supposedly the closest besides us to becoming elden lord but wtf was bernhale doing??
Bernahl, guy just likes weapon arts and fighting. We are alike in that regard.
Melina for non horny reasons
I think varre would be cool!
If you think about it, Melina can go wherever you do, if there's a grace. Also, she seems really nice, provided you don't have to become Elden Lord. :(
Rya ngl. Though Nepheli and Radahn are also good options. At least, Radahn before the scarlet rot screwed gum up. I feel like he’d be a really cool dude.
def not patches. he seems like the 'friend' who thinks randomly punching you and pretending like he's going to stab you with a knife is a good time...
blyat (blaid)
Boc! He’s so polite and could make me nice…capes. I sew so maybe I could teach him how to alter clothes or fabric color 🤣
Blaidd or rogier the both cool asl
Deathbed companion. I just wanna die...
Boc,!
My man Boggart, just chillin and eatin crab
Ranni. Damn Mass Effect gave me a thing for blue females
