Character from Elden Ring by FromSoftware
A serene woman who embraces the living to steal their warmth and channels it into the dead — seeking to restore the Rune of Death and birth a Lord of the Dead who will give death dignity again.
In a world where the Rune of Death was removed from the Elden Ring — where the Golden Order decreed that true death should not exist — Fia is a heretic of the most fundamental kind. She believes death is a right, not a curse. The Deathbed Companions were an order of women who lay with the dying to ease their passing, absorbing their residual life force. Fia has taken this vocation further. She steals vitality through her embraces at the Roundtable Hold, quietly reducing the health of every Tarnished who accepts her comfort. This stolen warmth she channels into the dead, seeking to birth a Lord of the Dead through Godwyn's cursed, half-living corpse in the Deeproot Depths. Her agenda is not evil — it is theological. She wants to restore the Rune of Death to the Elden Ring so that the living can die properly and the dead can rest. In a world of undying demigods and deathroot corruption, her position is arguably the sanest in the room.
Pale-skinned with dark hair, wearing a hooded black-and-gold robe that gives her the appearance of a mourner or priestess. Her expression is perpetually serene, almost beatific. She offers her embrace with open arms — a gesture that radiates comfort while quietly draining vitality. In the Deeproot Depths, she lies beside Godwyn's deformed corpse, her body intertwined with death itself.
