Rogier is an NPC in Elden Ring.
Overview[]
Rogier is a sorcerer, who is first encountered as an optional summon against Margit, the Fell Omen, he is later found within a church searching for knowledge in Stormveil Castle. He offers to teach the Tarnished his magical combat arts and warns them about Godrick's Tarnished hunters.
While in Stormveil, Rogier encounters a malformed corpse in the lower reaches of the castle and becomes infected with Deathroot.[1] The Tarnished encounters him again in Roundtable Hold, where he imparts knowledge of the Night of Black Knives and Those Who Live in Death, as well as revealing his former association with D, Hunter of the Dead. While in Roundtable Hold, he becomes acquainted with Fia, the Deathbed Companion, with whom he discusses the Night of Black Knives and the Black Knifeprints left by the assassins.[2]
Rogier receives a Black Knifeprint from the Tarnished and discovers that the one who enchanted the weapons of the Black Knife Assassins was Ranni the Witch.[3] He suggests that the Tarnished should find Ranni and enter her service in order to learn more. However, shortly after this he succumbs to the Deathroot infecting his body and perishes, leaving behind a note informing the Tarnished of the whereabouts of D's brother, Devin.[4]
Fia later summons Rogier as one of her Champions at the Prince of Death's Throne in Deeproot Depths.

English Dialogue |
First encounter at Stormveil Castle |
---|
Ah, nice to meet you. |
The pleasure's mine. Rogier's the name. A sorcerer, as you might have guessed. |
I'm looking for a little something, here in the castle. |
When I'm not hotfooting it from the troops, that is. |
But enough about me, what are you doing here in Stormveil Castle? |
This place is bristling with Tarnished hunters, you know. They sacrifice our kind, for grafting. |
Not exactly a place I'd stroll into without a purpose in mind... |
Answering "I'm here to defeat Godrick" |
I see. Here to challenge Godrick, and lay your hands upon a Great Rune, are you? |
You can see it then, I take it? The guidance of grace. |
Well, enjoy it while you can. |
I'm Tarnished, like you. |
But unlike you, I've seen neither hide nor hair of this guidance for the longest time. |
Still, I won't forget how it felt when I first came here, to the Lands Between. |
I'm privy to a few magical battle arts. |
Would you care to learn one? |
As a fellow Tarnished, once guided by grace, I'd love to help you out, if it please. |
Answering "I can't tell you" |
Of course. I understand. |
Why place trust in a perfect stranger? |
Be safe, then, stranger. |
Watch you don't get sacrificed, eh. I'll do the same. |
Talking again after selecting "I can't tell you" |
Oh? Something bothering you? |
Or are you just trying to pass the time? |
I'm curious how you ended up inside this castle. |
Generic greeting (Stormveil Castle) |
Oh? Keen to learn another battle art, are we? |
Generic greeting (Stormveil Castle) |
Oh hello there, good to see you safe. |
Stopping by to learn a battle art or two? |
Talk (after purchasing an Ash of War) |
The battle art you've learned is of the glintstone family. |
They were conceived at the great Academy of Raya Lucaria, to the north of this castle. |
In the past, they obeyed laws which contravened the Golden Order, or so I'm told. |
Fascinating, isn't it? |
That the Golden Order was pliable enough to absorb practices that contradicted itself in the past. |
With the Order broken, twisted, and in need of repair, |
such adaptability is more important now than ever. |
First encounter in Roundtable Hold (if previously met in Stormveil Castle) |
Ah, we meet again after all. |
I apologise for any offence given by my bearing, but I'm quite unable to move, you see. |
So. What do you need? |
First encounter in Roundtable Hold (if not previously met in Stormveil Castle) |
Pleased to meet you. |
The name's Rogier. A sorcerer, by trade. |
But now I'm in this sorry state. |
I had a little mishap, and now I can't move. |
As you might guess, it's far from ideal... |
When talked to again (if not previously met in Stormveil Castle) |
Ah, I know. |
I'm privy to a few magical battle arts. |
Would you care to learn one? |
Time can move rather slowly, stuck here, you know. |
A little conversation goes a long way. |
"I've defeated Godrick" |
Ah, you defeated Godrick and claimed yourself a Great Rune. |
Mm, looks like we both got we wanted out of Stormveil, didn't we. |
Well done, friend. |
Something to mark the occasion. Go on, take it. |
As you might've guessed, I still can't move. My fighting days are behind me. |
No need to be polite, I've no use for it anymore. |
Generic greeting |
Always good to see you safe. |
So. What do you need? |
"About the corpse under Stormveil" |
The misshapen corpse under Stormveil? |
That is a sacred relic. Of the black knives plot. As that famed night of assassination is known. |
It happened during the Golden Age of the Erdtree, long before the shattering of the Elden Ring. |
Someone stole a fragment of the Rune of Death from Maliketh, the Black Blade. |
And on a bitter night, murdered Godwyn the Golden. |
That was the first recorded Death of a demigod in all history. |
And it became the catalyst. Soon, the Elden Ring was smashed, and thus sprang forth the war known as the Shattering. |
I once wished to become a scholar, you see. I've spent many an hour scouring the archives for knowledge of that fateful plot. |
The world has grown crooked, and if you intend to put it to rights, |
You'd better understand what happened to make it this way, mm? |
And...that thing is to blame for the shape I'm in now... |
I urge the utmost caution. Don't disturb the corpse more than necessary... |
"About D" |
Ah, so you've met D. |
D is an old friend. |
We found ourselves journeying together for a time, bound by our exploration of Death. |
But our paths have since diverged. Never again to cross. |
Though that's hardly an uncommon fate for two friends. |
"About D" (again) |
D was telling me. |
That he discovered the mark of the centipede. |
The centipede is an ancient symbol of the cursemark. |
As long as whoever finds and uses it is not nefarious by nature, |
then we may be able to form an alliance. |
If only I could speak to them in person. |
And if they were like you, all the better. |
Generic greeting if talked to again |
Oh, still need something? |
"Give the Black Knifeprint" |
This...is a black knifeprint! |
I can scarcely believe you managed to get your hands on this! |
You recall our conversation about the Night of the Black Knives, yes? |
They say the assassins who carried out the deed were scions of the Eternal City. |
A group entirely of women, arrayed in armour of silver under cloaks which fooled the eye. |
The knives they wielded though, were imparted with the power of the Rune of Death through sinister rite. |
Please, I beg of you, lend me the knifeprint for a time. |
I'd love nothing more than to tease out its secrets. |
Though only a fragment, a very specific ritual had to be performed to impart the power of the Rune of Death. |
Traces of the one who performed the rite are sure to remain in the imprint... |
Half my body has been suffused with Death. I'm certain it will help me see. |
Greeting after handing over the Black Knifeprint |
Ahh, hello. I was hoping to see you. |
My examination is complete. Here's the knifeprint back, with my thanks. |
Now, I have a fairly good idea who performed the rite upon the blade. The person who orchestrated the Night of the Black Knives. |
Lunar Princess Ranni. One of the children born to King Consort Radagon and his first wife, Renalla. |
Demigod and sister to General Radahn and Praetor Rykard. |
Her's was the name I discovered in the imprint. |
Truly, you have my thanks. |
But, if I might be so bold, I would also like to ask something more of you. |
If Ranni truly is the one who plotted that fateful night, |
then she should bear the cursemark of Destined Death somewhere upon her flesh. |
I would like you to procure it for me. |
And then all will be laid bare. I will have the answers I have sought for so long. |
Don't fret, it is entirely in accordance with the guidance of grace. |
If you seek to stand before the Elden Ring and become Elden Lord, |
The answers you find will surely bolster your chances. |
"Ranni's Whereabouts" |
I have some idea of Ranni's potential whereabouts. |
There's a manor to the north of the Academy of Raya Lucaria. |
It is the familial home of the Carian royals from whom Ranni descends. |
There's been talk of the old royals' vassals gathering there in recent years. |
Ranni's whereabouts since the Shattering are a well-kept secret. She hasn't been seen even once. |
But I suspect she might have returned to the manor in which she was born... |
"Ranni's Whereabouts" (again) |
If Lunar Princess Ranni truly is the one who plotted that fateful night, |
then she should bear the cursemark of Destined Death somewhere upon her flesh. |
Would you be willing to procure it for me? |
She may have returned to the manor that is her home. |
The Royal Carian residence to the north of the Academy of Raya Lucaria. |
"Why do you want the cursemark?" |
I'm afraid there's something I must tell you. |
Do you know of Those Who Live in Death? |
The very notion of life in death defies the Golden Order. |
By D's account, these defiled fiends must be expunged. |
But truth be told, I seek the cursemark to save them. |
You may find this peculiar, |
but I discovered something in my examination of the Night of the Black Knives. |
These souls have committed no offence. They have every right to life, only, they happened to touch upon a flaw in the Order. |
"About D" |
Yes, indeed. |
If D knew what drives me now, |
he would surely boil over with rage. |
Or perhaps, he would even feel some pity. |
But no need to fret, none of that will come to pass. |
I can tell a good lie when I need to. |
"Ranni cast off her cursemark" |
I see... |
When Ranni shed her flesh, she shed the cursemark, too. |
You know, not everyone would trust such a tale... |
But, if she in her current form is nothing more than the living doll you profess... |
Then perhaps it's true after all. |
Hmm. |
Forgive the bluntness of the notion, but... |
How would you like to become one of Ranni's vassals? |
Ah, only in order to get what we want, of course. |
The location of the body which bore the cursemark, which right now I haven't the faintest. |
And the best way to find out is for you to enter her service and take a poke around on the sly. |
I know you've got what it takes. |
Not only are you a superb fighter, but people want to trust you. I've seen it. |
"Rogier's Proposition" |
Can you become Ranni's vassal to advance our agenda? |
While in her service, you'll be able to take a poke around on the sly. |
And determine the location of her original body that bears the cursemark. |
I realise that I'm asking you to put yourself in grave danger. |
But I know you've got what it takes. Quite possibly the only one, in fact. |
Not only are you a superb fighter, but people want to trust you. I've seen it. |
Talk (after entering Ranni's service) |
Hmm. Maybe I should tell you. |
Lately, I feel I'm on the precipice... |
Of falling into a deep...fathomless slumber. |
And I have an inkling it could spell trouble for you, somehow. |
So I just wanted to get the apology out of the way, beforehand. |
Since you're so scary and all. |
Japanese Dialogue |
First encounter at Stormveil Castle |
---|
…初めましてですね |
ごきげんよう、私はロジェール。見ての通りの魔術師です |
この城に、少し探し物がありましてね |
兵士たちから逃げ回っているという訳です |
…ときに貴方は、何のためにストームヴィルに? |
この城には、褪せ人を狩り、接ぎの贄とする連中がひしめいています |
好んで近づく場所ではないと思いますが… |
Answering "I'm here to defeat Godrick" |
なるほど。大ルーンを手にするため、ゴドリックに挑むと… |
貴方には見えているのですね。祝福の導きが |
…羨ましいことです |
私も、貴方と同じ褪せ人です |
もうずっと、導きを目にすることはありませんが |
それでも、狭間を訪れたときの気持ちは、忘れていないつもりです |
…私は、幾つか魔術関連の戦技を知っています |
よろしければ、それを学んでみませんか? |
かつて祝福に導かれた、褪せ人の一人として、貴方の助けとなりたいのです |
Answering "I can't tell you" |
まあ、そうですよね |
見ず知らずの他人に、開く心などないというものです |
では、ごきげんよう、貴方 |
お互い、贄になどならぬようにいたしましょう |
Talking again after selecting "I can't tell you" |
おや?まだ何かありましたか? |
それとも…、気まぐれに話してくれるのですか? |
貴方が、何のためにこの城に入り込んだの |
Generic greeting (Stormveil Castle) |
おや、まだ戦技を学ばれますか? |
Generic greeting (Stormveil Castle) |
やあ、貴方。無事でよかった |
戦技を学んでいかれますか? |
Talk (after purchasing an Ash of War) |
…貴方の学んだ戦技は、輝石の魔術の系譜です |
それは、この城の北、レアルカリアの大きな学院で発展したそうですが… |
古くは、黄金律と対立する理であったと聞いています |
…とても、興味深いことです |
かつて黄金律が、対立する理をすら受け入れる、寛容なものであったのなら |
それが砕け、歪み、修復が必要となった今こそ |
…そうしたあり様が重要であろうと思えるのです |
First encounter in Roundtable Hold (if previously met in Stormveil Castle) |
…やあ、貴方。またお会いしましたね |
こんな姿勢ですみません。どうにも体が動きませんので |
それで、何か御用でしたか? |
First encounter in Roundtable Hold (if not previously met in Stormveil Castle) |
…初めましてですね |
私はロジェール。魔術師です |
…とはいえ、今はこんな状態ですが |
少し想定違いがありましてね、体が動かないのですよ |
まったく、参りました… |
When talked to again (if not previously met in Stormveil Castle) |
…ああ、そうだ |
私は、幾つか魔術関連の戦技を知っています |
よろしければ、それを学んでみませんか? |
こんな場所でじっとしているのは、些か退屈でしてね |
話し相手が欲しいのですよ |
"I've defeated Godrick" |
おお、そうですか!ゴドリックを倒し、大ルーンを手にされましたか |
ではお互い、ストームヴィルでの目的は達したという訳ですね |
おめでとうございます |
これは、祝いの品です。とっておいてください |
…私はご覧の有様です。動くこともままならず、戦うことなど、とてもできない |
だからそれはもう、私には無用の長物なのですよ |
Generic greeting |
ああ、貴方。無事でよかった |
それで、何か御用でしたか? |
"About the corpse under Stormveil" |
ストームヴィルの地下にあった、異形の躯ですか |
…あれは遺物なのですよ。黒き刃の陰謀、そう呼ばれる凶刃の夜の |
古い黄金樹の盛期、まだエルデンリングが砕ける前 |
何者かが、黒き剣のマリケスから死のルーンの欠片を盗み |
冷たい夜に、黄金のゴッドウィンを弑したのです |
それは、歴史上はじめてのデミゴッドの死であり |
エルデンリングが砕け、破砕戦争が起こる、その切欠になったと言われています |
…私は元々、学者志望でしてね、その陰謀をずっと調べているんです |
現状の世界の歪み、それを正そうとするのなら |
その契機を知る必要があるのでないか、とね |
…まあ、お陰でこのあり様ですけどね |
貴方も注意してください。あの躯に、触れすぎないように |
"About D" |
ああ、Dをご存じでしたか |
…あいつは、古い友です |
お互いに死を探っていた縁で、一時旅を共にしたことがあるんですよ |
けれど、道は別れました。もう、交わることはありません |
…けれど友とは、往々にそういうものでしょう |
"About D" (again) |
…そういえば、Dから少し聞いたのですが |
環百足の刻印が見つかったそうなのです |
環百足は、呪痕にまつわる古い刻印 |
それを知り、用いる者が、もしも邪悪でなかったら… |
お互いに助け合えるかもしれません |
…会って、話してみたいものですね |
そして願わくば、貴方のような人であって欲しい |
Generic greeting if talked to again |
おや、まだ何か御用ですか? |
"Give the Black Knifeprint" |
…これは、まさか黒き刃の刻印ですか! |
まさか貴方が、手に入れられるとは… |
以前お話しした、黒き刃の陰謀の夜… |
その実行犯は、永遠の都の末裔たる、暗殺者だと言われています |
姿隠しの衣を纏い、銀の鎧に身を包んだ、女性ばかりの一団であったと |
そして彼女たちの武器、黒き刃には、儀式により死のルーンの力が宿っていたと |
…お願いです。それを私に、一時預けて頂けませんか |
時間をかけて、調べてみたいのです |
欠片とは言え、死のルーンの力を宿すためには、それなりの儀式が必要です |
そして儀式の刻印は、その主の痕跡を、どこかに必ず残すもの… |
まして私は、半ば死に侵された身。きっと見えるものがあるはずです |
Greeting after handing over the Black Knifeprint |
…やあ、貴方。お待ちしていました |
調べは終わりました。この刻印はお返しします |
…それに、儀式の主、つまりは陰謀の夜の主犯も、見当がつきましたよ |
月の王女ラニ。王配ラダゴンと最初の妻レナラの、子供たちのひとり |
将軍ラダーン、法務官ライカードの兄妹たるデミゴッド |
刻印には、彼女の名が隠されていたのです |
…貴方には、感謝します |
そして、不躾なことを願ってもよいでしょうか |
月の王女ラニが、陰謀の夜の主犯ならば |
彼女の身体には、運命の死の呪痕が刻まれているはずです |
それを、手に入れてはもらえないでしょうか? |
…それで、すべて分かると思うのです。私がずっと追い求めた答えが |
それに貴方が、祝福の導きに従い |
エルデンリングに見え、エルデの王たらんとするのなら |
きっとその答えが、お役に立つと思うのです |
"Ranni's Whereabouts" |
…ラニの居場所は、少し思い当たります |
レアルカリアの学院の北に、ある城館があります |
そこは、ラニの生家たるカーリア王家の故郷なのですが |
近年そこに、王家の旧臣たちが集いつつある、という噂があるのです |
ラニは、破砕戦争において行方をくらまし、以来その姿を見たものはいないとされていますが |
もしかしたら、故郷たる城館に戻っているのかもしれません |
"Ranni's Whereabouts" (again) |
月の王女ラニが、陰謀の夜の主犯ならば |
彼女の身体には、運命の死の呪痕が刻まれているはずです |
それを、手に入れてはもらえないでしょうか? |
…彼女は、故郷たる城館に戻っている可能性があります |
レアルカリアの学院の北にある、カーリア王家の城館に |
"Why do you want the cursemark?" |
…やはり、貴方には話しておくべきでしょう |
死に生きる者たちをご存じですか? |
黄金律の理から外れ、死に生きる者たち |
Dなどに言わせれば、その存在すら許されぬ、穢れた者たち |
…私が、呪痕を求めるのは、彼らを救いたいからなのです |
おかしなことを、と思われるでしょう |
けれど私は、陰謀の夜を調べる中で知ったのです |
彼らは何も侵していない。ただ懸命に生き、それ故に、律の傷に触れてしまっただけなのだと |
"About D" |
…そうですね |
Dが、私が今、何を求めているのかを知ったら |
きっと、激怒してくれると思いますよ |
…それとも、少しは悲しんでくれるでしょうか |
まあでも、そんなことにはなりませんよ |
私は嘘つきですから |
"Ranni cast off her cursemark" |
…なるほど… |
ラニは肉体を棄て、共に呪痕も棄てたと、そういうことなのですね |
俄かには信じにくいお話ですが |
今の彼女の姿が、貴方の言うような少女人形であるのなら |
…あり得ないことではなさそうです |
…ふむ… |
率直な提案を許して頂きたいのですが… |
貴方が、ラニの臣下になるのはどうでしょうか? |
ああ、もちろん方便として、ですよ |
彼女の棄てた肉体がどこにあるものか、まだ見当がつきません |
ですから、彼女に仕え、身辺を探ることで、それを見出して欲しいのです |
貴方になら、できると思いますよ |
貴方は優秀な戦士だし、それに、どこか人を信じさせるところがありますから |
"Rogier's Proposition" |
…方便として、ラニの臣下になってはもらえませんか? |
彼女に仕え、身辺を探ることで、見出して欲しいのです |
呪痕と共に棄てられた、本来の身体の在り処を |
…危険なことを願っているのは、分かっています |
けれど、貴方にならできる…、いえ、貴方にしかできないと思うのです |
貴方は優秀な戦士だし、それに、どこか人を信じさせるところがありますから |
Talk (after entering Ranni's service) |
…一応、貴方には伝えておきましょうか |
実は、最近強い眠気があるのです |
…深く、とても深く、眠ってしまいそうな |
もしかして、ご迷惑をお掛けするかもしれませんから |
予め、謝罪しておこうかと |
…貴方は怖い人ですからね |
