Guardian is an enemy in Elden Ring.
Overview[]
Guardians of the Minor Erdtrees, known as experts in the arts of combat who wield spears crafted from the hard wood of old trees.[1] In accordance with an ancient pact with the Erdtree, their deaths lead not to destruction, but instead to renewed, eternal life as guardians.[2] They are typically found near Minor Erdtrees, as well as among the roots of the Erdtree itself, in Leyndell, Royal Capital. They appear to have tree roots growing from their backs.
Variant Description[]
Masked guardians commonly found around Minor Erdtrees. They fight using swordspears, and have a charging attack which releases a cloud of poison.
