RADAHN THEY COULD NEVER MAKE ME HATE YOU actually i have found myself thinking about him way more now post-dlc in the sense that like. so much of what he did during and even after the shattering can relate back to him knowing what miquella was expecting from him and having changed his mind... i kind of like the way that that frames him as like. maybe the only demigod whose actions aren't for some greater purpose or ideal. he fetters the stars and is at the centre of one of the most horrific events in the shattering, he clearly tried to seize leyndell even, and like. i like the idea that he did many of these earthshattering things for entirely selfish or material reasons rather than some kind of higher idea, it makes him like a really interesting counterpoint to his dedicated schemer grindset siblings

honestly i have no idea where i personally stand on his full involvement anymore, mostly because i’ve seen rly good cases for both “he agreed to the vow and took it back” as well as “he agreed and was along with it the whole time”. maybe one day i’ll sway more fully in some direction again, but until then both are really fun hee hoo

i’m willing to see any and all of his actions in good faith tho. im sure a good dose of it has also been colored by his wishing to emulate godfrey too, and godfrey HIMSELF is really interesting in just how much he’s been idolized. if anything following in the footsteps of the first elden lord could’ve been the bulk of radahn’s goals entirely, which is also really fun. wanting to emulate that image of herosim without actually, truly putting forth much more thought into that
