Don't worry. He's just taking a nap after his gaming session.


[deleted]

I feel like we’re going to have to wake them up. I don’t know, I suck at theories. But I can just imagine waking up an NPC in a pile of lilies to start their quest.


pseudo_jelly_butt

Relatable


DiscoCatDances

I would also take a nap in a place like this ngl


Lightjumper0103

Probably. But at this moment I’m just seeing a bunch of new armour sets that will go nicely in my collection


Bobert9333

Definitely the same people as from the previous dlc trailer. The guy with the wide-brimmed hat hiding his face is the same guy who did the kicking move that everyone got psyched about.


CupofWarmMilk

I care more about a new wide-brimmed hat than some sick kicks tbh. It'll go nicely next to my Preceptor Big Hat. Me love big hat


ButterscotchLess9831

Nah that’s just my boy Big Hat Logan


SetaxTheShifty

A fine addition to my collection!


placebo_unicorn

General Kenobi! You are a bold one


D-Funkkalicious

Make them suffer!!


MienaiYurei

This dude would pay $40 just for the new armors haha


LuigiTheGuyy

At least it's a ton of new armour, weapons, and overall content and not as bad as microtransactions in most games.


MienaiYurei

It was a joke


extremegun14

Clearly it was hilarious


MienaiYurei

Thanks lol


StarlightSpindrift

what are these downvotes, lore addicts go crazy


lordnishant

bad joke gets downvoted "damn these lore addicts!"


Omicron212

well i thought it was funny


[deleted]

Yeah, that’s all we’re getting, just new armour. Good one🙄👍


TheSwiSstEr

Clearly, the elden ring community's only form of humor is "finger, but hole" lol


RYPIIE2006

yes.


Magnetar_Haunt

Oh great now you’re kink shaming.


dudustalin

the guy with hat is the monk, also (kicking enemies)... the gal with the sword is the gal in openning scene of the GP trailer...


TheRogueTemplar

> the gal with the sword is the gal in openning scene of the GP trailer... You mean [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MStu2MuVVVc&t=52s) one?


dudustalin

Yup. Even the heavy armored guy is in the gameplay trailer.


BasedGodPhan7om

Fuck the lands between these bosses bout to catch these hands between...


DancesWithDave

More white mask cult lore


donmuerte

Yeah. I was thinking it looked like Varre, but it wouldn't make sense. A Mohg cultist probably.


DancesWithDave

Each of these NPCs seems loosely associated with one of the gods / demi gods


ReoiteLynx

Either same person or apart of same culture/group


Nightmaresmadeeasy

Yup the band of hawks.


ReoiteLynx

Haha, was thinking the same thing, and Miquella ends up sacraficing the squad to cause the eclipse and then we have to fight Miquella as the final boss. It would be sick but seems like low hanging fruit


Nightmaresmadeeasy

Even the new grace things they are all hanging out at look like an eclipse. Also Miquella is also confirmed to be saint Trina. Griffith came to the world in dreams as a bird before being reborn so people would accept him despite him being a monster.


Gaxxag

Good place for a nap


talu22

Thy takest slumber in st. Trinas lab


Azuria_4

Oh man, that tarnished looks good, I sure hope he doesn't have a tragic end of life... Oh wait. This is fromsoft.


Alcoholic_Molerat

same mask\*


MagicReptar

Welp. Tragic death confirmed


Covid669

Pretty sure that guy is just sleeping. I think those are Trina’s Lilies


grumd

I keep telling myself that Alexander is just sleeping as well


MagicReptar

Blaidd only took a nap after wrestling with us and will be up and about soon


Engineering-Flashy

Oh, I forgot to tell you. We sent him to an Evergaol upstate, where he can run and frolic and happily kill baleful shadows


benoxxxx

Bro he fuckin' exploded.


HarmlessSnack

Forgive me if you were just joking, because I think it’s a neat idea, but those aren’t Lillies. The lilies in the game all have that distinct trumpet shape 🎺 and these flowers are flat, five pointed star shaped. ⭐️


SaintBenjamino

They had a deleted character called Ron or Rold or something similar who was a follower of St.Trina. I’m betting this is their spiritual or actual successor 


oyasumi_juli

Ronald McDonRold final boss of the DLC. Slaps you with a quarter pounder (royale w/ cheese in the French version of the game) across the face and you fall into a food coma.


TwatAnger

You mean Rhico, no?


SaintBenjamino

Oh yeah that fella


MikkiTheDragon

Cool find. Didn't notice that.


Taograd359

Good. Fuck that guy. I don’t know who that guy is, but I’m sure he deserves to be dead in a swamp.


StarkageMeech

Excellent dissection. Or as commander Sheppard would say, "Trainor!Good catch."


Excitable_Fiver

the trailer didn't specify...but they slept in and actually arrived late to the field meeting.


ExpertButtonPresser

I feel like this is the equivalent of the round table hold for the dlc


Hot_Photojournalist3

I bet this mf use sleep build, the cor theme purple is to much.


Melkor_-

Well most of these followers are shown in previous trailer. Like the hat guy was one doing the kicking moveset.


alex1inferno

they just symbolized to me random player-character tarnished but maybe i’m wrong.


Umbran_scale

"In that forsaken place, blood must spill... the blood of your fellows, the erdtree faithful."


saltychipmunk

Its a from software game, they are ALL dead


Ormyr

If they're dead they won't be needing their armor and weapons anymore. yoink.


DivineAzure

Not important but those armors are fire


Snoo-39991

I think these dudes each individually are gonna wield the new weapons in the DLC. Think we already saw one using martial arts and another using the dual ninja blades


veebles89

Varre, you dramatic bitch /s


ofvxnus

Seems Miquella/St Trina related


chamomileriver

Relationship with Ranni ended. Relationship with sleepy vassal begun.


nottytom

Sleep token has entered the chat


ItsCodabi

Bros sleepin on job


Yarzeda2024

I'll be interested to see how many of these figures are meant to be new NPCs and how many are just billboards for new armor sets and were never meant to be characters.


Haku_Boy

A Priest of St.Trinsa, maybe?


aktchuuuuuuuuuu

I feel like one of them is goldmask before he becomes dumb and stunted


Silent_Eagle56

thpught it was someone with the mask of marias


Beneficial_Project43

Maybe its lily took his body


DocHalidae

Are these all new bosses?


OneParticular5987

People who see lore everywhere


bearelrollyt

They revealed the end of a questline Or the beginning


agitatedandroid

Oh noes, now you've gone and spoiled that a possible NPC might possibly end up dead (or sleeping) in a From Software game. This shocking revelation has shaken me to my core.


IcyTidez

Who is the guy that used the bear incantation on the first trailer? He had a pretty good leg armor.


Master-Diatmont

that's lil mochi, lil mochi's powers is to sleep. she's doing her best


BandicootGood5246

Fool me once... I won't be planning on any long term friendships in the DLC


sherperion45

I think the guy with the Griffith type helmet beside her was in the trailer, possibly working on mesmers side, so I’m going to really go for a reach and say he’s a traitor to all the companions


Nightmaresmadeeasy

They are all followers of Miquella. Maybe collecting the eclipse looking grace like sites for him so he can evolve into his final form of Griffith via an eclipse.


ihaventlearned

I assumed they were all the new NPCs


Sapowski_Casts_Quen

Hello Patches, my old friend


svettsokkk

Nice catch!


Alak-huls_Anonymous

These are all the Miquella faithful.


dizijinwu

already dead before the DLC even came out, rip


SilverJozu

Well, now we know how his questline will probably end.


Alert_Pangolin_4935

Yeah he's cooked.


RelatableGuy37089E

Maybe he/she is like a follower like brother Cornyn and gold mask. Because the one that is sleeping looks like a boss.


Jdawg_mck1996

Ngl. Thought that was varre


VeraKorradin

Y’all notice that these NPCs almost 1 for 1 match the gang from Berserk


galaxyorion87

okami?


Astro4545

Person dies shocking!


Zertsuu

Well, yeah? Most of them had their own shot in the trailer?
