Elden Ring - Northerner

https://eldenring.fandom.com/wiki/Northerner

“A face found among the hardy people of the unforgiving north. Some say they're descended from giants.— Character Creation”

The Northerners are an unseen faction in Elden Ring.

Overview

The rugged Northerners hail from the snowy Mountaintops of the Giants in the northern Lands Between. They are rumored to be descendants of the Fire Giants, who ruled the Flame Peak long ago.

Notes

• They are likely related to:
• Kaiden Sellswords from Kaiden
• Kaiden Armor set "Armor worn by Kaiden sellswords. Made with the pelt of a snow-wolf, which protects against the cold.
  These hulking, fearless mercenaries, said to hail from the moutaintops of the wintry north, are adept at fighting on horseback. Kaiden is the name of their home settlement."
• Dismantler "This curved greatsword wielded by the brawny sellswords of Kaiden combines the blades of a scimitar with the heft of a hatchet.
  A difficult to handle weapon that demands much of the wielder's strength and dexterity, but with practice and ability, it can serve as a versatile weapon even on horseback."
• Trolls
• Fire Monks who guard the Giants' Flame.
• Highlanders
• "Highland warriors are known to be hunters of bears; to them, there is no act more glorious than the subjugation of a savage beast.— Highland Attire"
• The Tarnished can also have the features of a Northerner as per the character creation screen.
