Character from Elden Ring by FromSoftware
A Misbegotten smith chained to his anvil at the Roundtable Hold, compelled by a divine command to forge a weapon capable of killing a god — his memory fades, but his hands remember the work.
Hewg was charged by Queen Marika herself to forge a god-slaying weapon, and the compulsion has outlasted his memory, his identity, and his will to resist. He does not remember who gave the order or why. He only knows that he must keep smithing, keep perfecting, keep reaching for something that might wound the divine. As the game progresses, his memory deteriorates further, but his craft does not falter. His final moments — choosing to stay in the burning Roundtable Hold because 'the flames are nice and warm' — are quietly devastating.
A hunched Misbegotten — the bestial underclass of the Lands Between — with grey-furred arms and a simian face weathered by centuries of forge-heat. Heavy chains bind him to his anvil. Despite his imprisonment, he works with absolute precision, hammer strokes measured and sure.
