[QUOTE="Admin, post: 55230, member: 1"] Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin appears to have hidden his initials across Elden Ring's world, by way of many of its characters. The game's opening cutscene introduces one of Elden Ring's gods, Queen Marika, and players eventually meet her various relatives and offspring. [I][B]Spoiler warning: This story going forward contains several names and relationships of Elden Ring characters from deep into the game.[/B][/I] But the main four, [URL='https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/all-of-elden-rings-demigods-have-names-from-george-rr-martins-initials/']as noted by PC Gamer[/URL], are Godfrey, Rennala, Radagon, and Marika. Their initials combine into G.R.R.M, not unlike George Raymond Richard Martin. In fact, all of Elden Ring's gods and demigods have names beginning with these three letters: Godfrey, Godwyn, Godrick, Rennala, Radagon, Radahn, Rykard, Ranni, Renna, Marika, Morgott, Mogh, Malenia, Miquella, and Maliketh.
