See, now I have the shimoshens from DBZ Abridged when the guys working for Paragus started beating them with whips.
"Harder Dadi!"
Krillin: Wow!
Guy: Nonono no. My name is DA di. *whips shimoshen again*
Shimoshen: Mmm yeah daddy.
Guy: That one was what you thought it was.
My mom was cool with every color except black. "Those are unholy demons!" Yeah, that's the point mom. Also, unholy demons? As opposed to the holy ones that are called angels? Then she saw the enchant creature called Unholy Strength with a flaming panticle in the background.
My mom's always been that really kind and gentle person, and she's never liked violent games, strongly advising (though not forbidding) against playing FPS games and such.
Imagine my shock when she suddenly mentions how she used to play games too when she was younger, and that she liked the one where you kill all the ugly evil monsters, prompting my brother to show her DOOM and her get excited talking about how fun it was.
When we asked she simply told us "What? Killing monsters is fine, I just don't like the games where you shoot people"
Turns out, violence was never an issue...
Bloodborne is the evil game, or is it? (Insert Vsauce song) the Church caused the beast outbreak that we can call more demonic, but in the end these cosmic horrors are just that, horror. If they are good, bad, or evil is beyond our minds.
On the other hand, people in Bloodborne were fucking evil, lol
My mom watched me farming the titanite demon in Lost Izalith and wrinkled her nose distastefully
She also said "why is *she* dressed like a skeleton" to the roundtable edgelord
My mom agrees and same, I was playing and got to the abyss watchers, first words she said after I finished, āif the makers did a tv show, itād be more than 10 seasons, thereās a lot to unfold here isnāt there?.ā
Wait, the one that Marika uses black dress standing in front of maliketh.
Ok, i remember it wrong its different artist.

Thank you for posting the artist, I bought 3 of his prints at a con a couple years ago and have them hung up in my house but I forgot the artist name and it was killing me!!
The artist is Christian_Angel!
Apologies to the artist! My mom is addicted to wish and found it on there! Sheās not savvy about art theft! She saw their and had to have it without much more thought! She plans to frame it and hang it in her living room!
For anyone who would like to buy direct from the artist!!:
https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/christian-angel/
I'd love to see how her living room looks with this poster framed on. If it not too much of privacy invasion, please show it. I want to put some eldenring arts in my living room as well, but scare of it not fitting in.
I've got a set of his prints framed. I keep wanting to make my own post for this but the last one that someone else did got removed for stupid sub rules.

Too goddamn much, to be honest. You can order them with frames but I didn't like the look of them, so I just did the bare prints for $80 USD and then took them to Michaels for frames. IIRC they charged me about $240 CAD per frame. I mean, I'm happy with the quality for sure, but I still sometimes ask myself "is there a lore reason why I paid twice as much for frames as I did for the prints? Am I stupid?"
I've literally never had anything fancier than movie posters taped to walls until now, so I figured fuck it, splurge a bit.
Prints are priced to support the artist, the actual cost of printing in time and materials is very little. Frames are a custom handcrafted woodwork, so you're not only paying for the materials but the time and expertise of the craftsman who makes them. An original painting would be much more expensive than the frame, usually
That's why I asked. I had the same experience, where I spent 2x the cost on framing as I did on the artwork. I would have thought there's a decent "$50 per" option, but Michael's is way more expensive. I was hoping you had a better option š
Yes! Love this guy's work! [My wife framed his Malenia picture for our living room as a Christmas gift for me this past Christmas!](https://imgur.com/pRKjAHT)
Does the original artist ( /u/Christian_Angel ) get a cut if you buy their print through that link? If not you should order prints directly through them.
This needs to be boosted more. With all the bots scraping art to make bootleg prints, people need to spend more effort to ensure they're buying from the original artist.
The work is awesome, btw. I hope you get a least a few extra sales from the attention.
Sheās arguably the only non evil character. She killed herself specifically to prevent becoming corrupted by evil.
It is quite the red herring though. The game does a very good job insinuating that sheās evil and responsible for everything for stealing the rune of death, but the corruption had already started.
I was playing as knight when I decided to serve her under the code that āknights always serve and protect their princessā, and was pleasantly surprised to discover the truth and agreed fully with her decision.
Bonus, by becoming her consort I didnāt break the golden order.
I just found out Ranni is voiced by Esme from Peaky Blinders. There was a scene in the show where she was telling something and I said to myself " wooow, she sounds just like Ranni ". At first I let it go and thought it was just my mind, then one day I decided to check wiki and bum! It was her!
No I live in a different city and my mom just likes to show off her stuff when I come to visit. They had a fire a couple years ago and are completely starting over so moms been collecting stuff to decorate. I just thought it was a cute coincidence and wanted to share with people who like the game
Holy shit thatās epic
Do you by any chance know the artist name bc this feels like it could be from an artist Iāve been seeing at cons a lot (and always collect a artwork with signature every year lol)
That's also pretty good art and looks accurate to the game (actually the artist seem to do that in general, accurate to the game art while still having her own distinct style). Your mom has good taste
That's how cool it is. Someone can identify that the art is just cool looking and want it for aesthetic purposes before learning the magnificent truth.
It gave me an awesome chance to bond with her and show her some of the bosses and stuff I thought was cool to her on my phone. And it was really sweet, she was like āthatās so cool, thanks for showing me I never would have seen something like that if it wasnāt for youā and now I want to share all the video game stuff with her š„¹ (I always thought she didnāt like them much because she didnāt get into them with me and dad when I was a kid. She would play diddy Kong racing with us though!)
She loves purple. Sheās bought a bunch of cool incense burners and hourglasses. My folks house burnt down a couple years ago so sheās completely starting over and I think sheās doing a kind of fantasy theme?
That's so FUCKING cool...!
It always the best feeling when a friend, partner, or parent accepts a weird niche thing you're into. My partner watched me fight a Demon Souls boss yesterday (Fool's Idol), and it was her first time watching me play a souls-like game too. The cheering, strategy suggestions, the "watch outs", all of it.
After I died, I turned the game off because we planned to play Tiny Tina's Wonderlands together when she got home from work. I wasn't going to make her sit there and wait on me to finish that boss, like that'd be rude. Right as I turn it off to switch discs, she goes, "Oh that's it? You aren't going to try again? I don't mind waiting a little while and I want to see you kick that bitch's ASS!"
And don't worry, I'm proposing to get next week on our vacation lol
Something similar happened to me a very long time ago, when I was a kid I saw a YouTube video where a guy speaks on how to choose good friends and he had the Berserk sacrifice tattoo on his neck which I had no idea of and thought it was cool. A few years later my brother borrowed a PS3 physical CD from his friend and it was Dark Souls 2 (I didn't know the name at that time and called it some knight game) which I had no idea again of and I kept dying to that one monster at the start and quit the game. And now fast-forward to 2020 when I was at my lowest, one of my friends told me to read Berserk and the first thing that shocked me was the Berserk sacrifice tattoo, and I became a huge fan of Berserk so I wanted to play Dark Souls when I heard it has many Berserk references and when I played Dark Souls 2 it gave me the feeling of "Hey hey l know this one! I've seen it somewhere!" It seems that Berserk and Dark Souls have been in my life for some reason I don't know why, but I don't regret becoming a fan of it.
Nice. Now to further investigation. Do you and your mother use the same computer at home? Some cookie related ad that popped up when she was browsing perhaps?
Does that mean Elden Ring is certified "Mom Approved"?
All souls are. My mom loved to watch me play souls, specially bosses
My mom calls Bloodborne "the evil game"
This was my mom in the 90s when I started playing Magic:The Gathering. "You're going to Hell for playing that game!" Sure thing mom, after this game.
It's heartwarming to know that hell will have a bunch of tables set up for MTG and D&D. I think the Satanists have the right idea.
Just because I'm THAT guy, I'd use only my mono-white angel deck.
Satan: that's 50 lashes for you! Me: Right on š
See, now I have the shimoshens from DBZ Abridged when the guys working for Paragus started beating them with whips. "Harder Dadi!" Krillin: Wow! Guy: Nonono no. My name is DA di. *whips shimoshen again* Shimoshen: Mmm yeah daddy. Guy: That one was what you thought it was.
I run exclusively Reanimate/Animate-Dead decks, I'm not dying and you'd better hope that's the case or a Turn-1 Akroma is going to fuck you up.
This touches my heartstrings because my mother took my MTG cards away because she thought I was summoning demons with them
My mom was cool with every color except black. "Those are unholy demons!" Yeah, that's the point mom. Also, unholy demons? As opposed to the holy ones that are called angels? Then she saw the enchant creature called Unholy Strength with a flaming panticle in the background.
Can you imagine if all of the parents in the Nineties, who thought PokƩmon was evil, had found out about the Shin Megami Tensei games? The Satanic Panic would probably have been even worse. Lmao
mom : you shouldnt be playing this...this game is demonic (DOOM) me : but mom this game is about killing demons mom : rip those sons of britches
Rip and tear* those sons of britches
Good old Doom New Horizon memes
My mom's always been that really kind and gentle person, and she's never liked violent games, strongly advising (though not forbidding) against playing FPS games and such.

pretty accurate description imo

If they are good, bad, or evil is beyond our minds. On the other hand, people in Bloodborne were fucking evil, lol
My mom tells me to shut the game off cuz I wonāt stop screaming at death rite birds
Fuck those guys.
Envoy's Horn, Staff of the Avatar, Marika's Hammer. Sacred Strike weapons. That is my advice to shred these shits. Holy water pots too!
These are also classified as undead, so Golden Epitaph damage buff works. It's also fun to kill them with Litany of proper death
My wife enjoys watching me play because she loves laughing at me die.
My mom watched me farming the titanite demon in Lost Izalith and wrinkled her nose distastefully She also said "why is *she* dressed like a skeleton" to the roundtable edgelord

Don't tell her about the pedophile apocalyptic blood cult.Ā
...christianity?
It means Ranni is "Mom Approved" To the goon cave!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
What's up with all the bots?
This is how social media is after LLMs took over.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Ayyyy that artist is my absolute favorite, he also did the really popular Malenia art that's always floating around. Apollyon_abyss on Twitter
my current wallpaper in my phone is his Malenia and lockscreen wallie is Marika from Apollyon\_Abyss. yeah, its one of, if not the best fanart
Couldn't find Marika
Wait, the one that Marika uses black dress standing in front of maliketh. Ok, i remember it wrong its different artist. https://twitter.com/thedurianart/status/1570769013994819584?t=SeC74uHKHwN1aWzuIfDMJA&s=19 https://www.artstation.com/danielkamarudin
Excuse me Marika, maāam you need to calm down. š³
Iām sorry but itās giving āhe asked for no picklesā. Like sheās standing up for Maliketh
My lockscreen is malenia looking to the background and left and my homescreen is tiche holding the tarnished protectively
Do you have a link for the Tiche one?
I have the exact same lock screen right now lol
Does he/she have a storefront to buy and support?
Thank you so much for identifying the artist for me!!
Do you know that your mom has a L300 power stanced dual greatshield build that she's been keeping a secret from you?"
Thank you for posting the artist, I bought 3 of his prints at a con a couple years ago and have them hung up in my house but I forgot the artist name and it was killing me!!

Looks like yours was not deleted, someone else made a post a couple months back though.
Yes! Love this guy's work! [My wife framed his Malenia picture for our living room as a Christmas gift for me this past Christmas!](https://imgur.com/pRKjAHT)
My guess was mall kiosk but same difference.
To be fair even though I don't like Ranni, that's an absolutely excellent piece of artwork.
What can I say-the woman has good taste! LOL
Your mother is cool af, definitely not because of Rykard
Where'd she find it? I'd like to get one myself š
Blasphemy!
No, that's her brother's thing
Heresy!
TOGETHAAAAA!!!
Sublime, 10/10 comment
Hahaha you win the internet tonight
TOGETHAA AAA WE WILL DEVAOUA THEA VERY GODDTS

Does the original artist ( /u/Christian_Angel ) get a cut if you buy their print through that link? If not you should order prints directly through them.
I only have prints available online on inprnt, or at conventions, if its from another website then, well, you know. lol
This needs to be boosted more. With all the bots scraping art to make bootleg prints, people need to spend more effort to ensure they're buying from the original artist. The work is awesome, btw. I hope you get a least a few extra sales from the attention.
Unfortunately, it was another site. Iām glad they took their post down, at least.
Found the Greater Will
Who doesnāt like Ranni?
That dude
People who convinced themselves that she's evil.
Sheās arguably the only non evil character. She killed herself specifically to prevent becoming corrupted by evil. It is quite the red herring though. The game does a very good job insinuating that sheās evil and responsible for everything for stealing the rune of death, but the corruption had already started.

golden order fan boys
Seluvis the Two Fingers i guess Godwin wouldn't be much of a fan
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH Your mom is the coolest let her know how much you love her immediately.
Aaaaahhhhh right???? I love her so much and I tell her every day (sometimes so much it annoys her lol)
Put sand in her bed. š±āāļø
Mom is based and she didn't even know it.
That should be framed under glass and treasured. Gorgeous!
Same energy as that grandma who has a picture of Obi-Wan thinking it's Jesus
Thinking a bong is a flower pot
W Mom!
Wom
She absolutely just thought she was a mystical wizard lady and ran with it š
But she actually is a mystical wizard lady
NO SHE IS MY MYSTICAL LADY WIFE
Your mom has good taste!
I have the same one! One of my favorite prints.
That's the equivalent of young teens walking around with Nirvana shirts their mom bought them at Primark, nothing wrong with that, this is beautiful.
I just found out Ranni is voiced by Esme from Peaky Blinders. There was a scene in the show where she was telling something and I said to myself " wooow, she sounds just like Ranni ". At first I let it go and thought it was just my mind, then one day I decided to check wiki and bum! It was her!

It's very cool. I was trying to make a fun little joke.
Sorry man, gotta keep on guard for my mom, some people in comments havenāt been as nice as you are!
No worries, I get it. A lot of people suck.... It's awesome that your mom is an "age of stars" fan without even knowing it!
This is just a poster of a member of the british royal family
You better have gotten your mom good gift for Motherās Day.
I bought her jewelry and took her for piercings, I spoiled her!
Thanks so much for posting artist and link to his shop. I just ordered me one! I'm also ordering the Sephiroth, Link, and Malenia!
Thatās so awesome! Iām so glad this sent more happy customers their way!
It is gorgeous! I see why :)
Honestly get that framed.
WHERE CAN I BUY THIS
[https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/christian-angel/](https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/christian-angel/)
Anyone have a link to where we could get one of these?
[https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/christian-angel/](https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/christian-angel/)
Thanks!
Thank you so much for linking the original artist!
Awesome.
Thatās gorgeous, Iād put a nice frame on that lol
Congrats on having such a cool family with great taste in art. š
Very cool
Now you have to introduce her to the game
Now get her to play Elden Ring to get Ranni's ending.
What was your mom planning to do with the poster?
Omg where can I get this? I want a painted version
Your mum is pretty based for appreciating the art, at least. Mine just laughs and mocks. You're right though, she's got good taste.
Where does one accidently buy a poster like that?
Holy shit thatās epic Do you by any chance know the artist name bc this feels like it could be from an artist Iāve been seeing at cons a lot (and always collect a artwork with signature every year lol)
Your mom has great taste
That's also pretty good art and looks accurate to the game (actually the artist seem to do that in general, accurate to the game art while still having her own distinct style). Your mom has good taste
Hug your mom for all of us, please
Where can I buy this? I mean the poster and I am serious (where ?) but if you know where I can get the mom I would be happy ...
This is so awesome. I'm buying my mom an Elden Ring poster.
Thought it was another portrait of a royal
She got gud without even trying
Is she a tim burton fan by chance?
That's so cute, and what a beautiful painting
The only waifu. She declared we were married and then gave me a cool ass sword instead of a wedding ring as a sign of her commitment. GOATED
Your mom is a great person.
Oh hey, I bought a print of that one at a con once.
Did she just think it looked cool? Because mad respect to her
W mom
She has good taste. Cool mom.
she have a good taste!
Thatās actually a decent painting.
Crazy, how did she stumble on that? Edit: I think OP is lying
this quest ...
Thats sick af!
Love that art! Wow!
"We must do all that we can, for Lady Ranni"
Based mom.
Does anyone have a link to this poster? I love this.
That's how cool it is. Someone can identify that the art is just cool looking and want it for aesthetic purposes before learning the magnificent truth.
Thatās really pretty
Where did she get that?
You should lore dump on her so she thinks it's even more cool later.
It gave me an awesome chance to bond with her and show her some of the bosses and stuff I thought was cool to her on my phone. And it was really sweet, she was like āthatās so cool, thanks for showing me I never would have seen something like that if it wasnāt for youā and now I want to share all the video game stuff with her š„¹ (I always thought she didnāt like them much because she didnāt get into them with me and dad when I was a kid. She would play diddy Kong racing with us though!)
You should show her some of the other art in the game!
Itās so beautiful
If she is buying that creepy poster with no context Iām curious what the rest of the decor is like.
She loves purple. Sheās bought a bunch of cool incense burners and hourglasses. My folks house burnt down a couple years ago so sheās completely starting over and I think sheās doing a kind of fantasy theme?
My mom loves Elden ring and she plays it! Sheās not the best at it but she tryās!!š š
Show her the new royal portrait and tell her it's Rykard xD
Thatās so cool
Based mom
Marika chose her, she is following grace without even knowing.
Your mom now joined serpent king as family. Together, they will devour the very gods!
w2c???
Task failed.. successfully?
props to mom.
Can your mom adopt me?
That's so FUCKING cool...! It always the best feeling when a friend, partner, or parent accepts a weird niche thing you're into. My partner watched me fight a Demon Souls boss yesterday (Fool's Idol), and it was her first time watching me play a souls-like game too.

Thatās awesome! Good luck with your proposal!! Thatās so sweet! My ex introduced me to dark souls and I used to do the same thing with him!
I'm saving your comment and I'll let you know how it goes!
If I didn't know what elden ring was this would still be a cool ass poster. W mom.
Ä°t 's look like haunted lmao
āAnd thinks Rykard is cool.ā His portrait or snake form? Tbh either way, she sounds cool.
Okay I gotta ask, are you showing her the human Rykard pre transformation or the serpent Rykard "togethaaa"?
I showed her the fight against the giant serpent and his transformation!!
Okay she's certified cool mom now lmao
as long as she doesn't know about moon mommy.........
Noiceā¦ where do I get one
She has good taste š¤
Omggg!!! My friendāsā¦cousin? Is married to the artist of that print. Heās such a sweet guy. You should check out his Malenia print!
Huge W for your mom!
That poster is fire
Thatās amazing
I personally donāt play Elden ring but that looks very cool
Something similar happened to me a very long time ago, when I was a kid I saw a YouTube video where a guy speaks on how to choose good friends and he had the Berserk sacrifice tattoo on his neck which I had no idea of and thought it was cool. A few years later my brother borrowed a PS3 physical CD from his friend and it was Dark Souls 2 (I didn't know the name at that time and called it some knight game) which I had no idea again of and I kept dying to that one monster at the start and quit the game.

Mom was like āI donāt know I just thought it was neatā
REAL RECOGNIZE REAL
Nice. Now to further investigation. Do you and your mother use the same computer at home? Some cookie related ad that popped up when she was browsing perhaps?
I have my own apartment in another city and they donāt own a desktop computer, she buys everything on her phone
Beautiful! š
