The son of the Elden Lord Radagon and Queen Marika, Miquella is an Empyrean who departed for the Land of Shadow, which is a new area players will explore in the DLC. The Land of Shadow will undoubtedly include more content related to Miquella, but there are three items bearing his name in the base game that reveal more about this mysterious character.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"679\" height=\"533\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 679px) 100vw, 679px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-001.jpg\" alt=\"Miquella's Lilly in Elden Ring\" class=\"wp-image-31064\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-001.jpg 679w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-001-380x298.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-001-600x471.jpg 600w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Miquella\u2019s Lily is used to craft Bewitching Branches&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Miquella\u2019s Lily is a crafting material that can be found throughout the Lands Between and collected from fallen foes in Miquella\u2019s Haligtree. Miquella loved the flower in his youth, and it is only by combining it with a Sacrificial Bud that players can craft Bewitching Branches.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Bewitching Branch is a consumable item that allows players to trade some of their FP to turn an enemy into a temporary ally. This unique effect is similar to Miquella\u2019s ability to compel affection from others \u2013 a power that is said to make him the most fearsome Empyrean. Bewitching Branches can be used to turn groups of strong foes against each other and are especially useful against the Banished Knights that are summoned by Commander Nill during his boss fight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1126\" height=\"631\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1126px) 100vw, 1126px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-002.jpg\" alt=\"Miquella's Needle in Elden Ring\" class=\"wp-image-31065\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-002.jpg 1126w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-002-380x213.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-002-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-002-600x336.jpg 600w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Miquella\u2019s Needle can stop an unwanted ending&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As players progress through Elden Ring\u2019s main story, they will eventually come upon the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds and within it the Cathedral of the Forsaken. By stripping their character of their armor and equipment, players can gain an audience with the Three Fingers \u2013 an NPC that imbues them with the Flame of Frenzy. This action locks players into the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending, where the Tarnished takes up the mantle as the Lord of Chaos and is tasked with burning the world to the ground. At this stage, the only way that the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending can be prevented is by progressing Millicent\u2019s questline and obtaining Miquella\u2019s Needle.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the item\u2019s description, Miquella\u2019s Needle was created by Miquella to ward off the meddling of outer gods such as the Three Fingers. Miquella stripped himself of his flesh and Golden Lineage before departing for the Land of Shadow, showing his desire to break from his constraints. His needle works similarly, as it allows the Tarnished to prevent the end of the world and offers them a chance to look for alternatives should they so wish.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"955\" height=\"538\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 955px) 100vw, 955px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-003.jpg\" alt=\"Miquella's Ring in Elden Ring\" class=\"wp-image-31066\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-003.jpg 955w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-003-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-003-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/20240520-31058-003-600x338.jpg 600w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Miquella\u2019s Ring of Light shows his affinity for magic&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Though Miquella has no weapons that are directly associated with him in the base game, the Halo Scythe possesses a unique ability with his namesake. Miquella\u2019s Ring of Light allows the Halo Scythe to shoot two halos of light at the cost of 11FP. The scythe itself scales with Strength, Dexterity, and Faith, making it a good weapon for a quality build.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Miquella\u2019s everlasting youth and ability to compel others don\u2019t paint him as a violent individual, but the Cleanrot Knights in his service are different. With weapons such as the Halo Scythe, they deal holy damage to their enemies; particularly against General Radahn\u2019s army.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/news\/how-are-elden-rings-radahn-and-mohg-related-to-miquella-the-central-figure-of-shadow-of-the-erdtree\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Counting the infamous Haligtree that Miquella made<\/a> to cure himself and Malenia of their afflictions, items bearing Miquella\u2019s name show his inclination for magic and determination to fight against predetermined circumstances.
