A new piece of fan art for Elden Ring has surfaced online, adding a touch of charm to the game's most eerie boss, Mohg, Lord of Blood. Given the game's high acclaim, it's unsurprising that fans have been creating abundant fan art, ranging from celebrating their favorite characters to sharing their interpretations of the game's unsettling bosses.
Similar to From Software's previous titles, Elden Ring is filled with grim and disturbing elements, but few can match the unsettling presence of Mohg in the Lands Between. Mohg's dark backstory and controversial relationship with Miquella contribute to his unsettling nature, as does the intense boss fight and the brutal blood-based attacks unleashed on players. Adding to his creepiness, Mohg's appearance includes a mouth filled with long fangs, demonic wings, and a twisted arrangement of horns, including one that grows into his left eye socket.
The pixel-based GIF created by Mr3sk on Reddit is truly impressive as it portrays Mohg in a surprisingly adorable manner. The animated artwork presents the fight with Mohg as a classic adventure game boss battle, featuring Elden Ring's powerful Lord of Blood towering over a lone Tarnished with outstretched arms, just like in the actual game. Despite this, the vibrant colors and retro aesthetic successfully soften the eerie elements of Mohg's design.
Among the many responses to Mr3sk's post, numerous mentions were made about Mohg and the challenging boss encounter. Additionally, users expressed delight in discovering that the Tarnished character in the GIF resembled the renowned Elden Ring player Let Me Solo Her. Furthermore, a popular response humorously suggested that Mr3sk's Tarnished should focus on improving their vigor, as evidenced by the Legend of Zelda-inspired health gauge displaying only three hearts.
In the notoriously difficult game Elden Ring, facing off against the brutal foe Mohg can be a challenge, especially with his array of blood attacks. However, with a bit of preparation, this tough battle can actually become one of the easiest in the game. A player managed to impressively defeat Mohg in a single hit at level 1, showcasing their skills.
A GIF created by Mr3sk depicting this victory is another example of the talented Elden Ring fanbase paying tribute to From Software's popular open-world game. With its memorable characters, enemies, weapons, and locations, Elden Ring has sparked the creativity of fans, providing them with ample inspiration. And with the highly anticipated Shadow of the Erdtree expansion on the horizon, fans can look forward to even more content to fuel their creativity.
Elden Ring is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
