#oc: fenrix the white raven
Text
alright so Fenrix Lore Time because I finally decided what to do with this man
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tw for some violence, nsfw, potential pregnancy in trans/intersex men, affectionate manipulation, and canon-typical political fuckery
-Was a very soft-spoken swordsman, worked as a guard to any who would trust one of the Nightfolk. Generally chivalrous and eager to please, he hoped that his blade being used for good would ward off the stigmas the Golden Order placed upon his kindred, though he was regarded with suspicion all the same. Earned the name 'the White Raven' among the mercenaries who raised him when they found him as an orphan for his oddly pale skin and his fondness for clever tricks
-Found out he was Tarnished when a mob descended on him and slit his throat based off the accusations of him knowing blasphemous arcane arts. When he woke again, the wounds on his throat, face, and back had scarred over, and the damage to his neck was so bad that he could no longer speak. Some raspy vocalizations were possible, but clearly articulated words were impossible. Much like a raven, he was reduced to mere croaking, which he saw as a grim trick from the fates
-Luckily, sign is widespread enough due to the whole Finger nonsense, so he resigned himself to his fate and learned how to use it fluently on the boatride to the Lands Between. Was pretty lost on what to do upon arrival, but he had his scimitars and his skill so he decided to just pursue the Elden Ring for lack of anything better to do. He enjoyed a good challenge, so why not?
-His relationship with Varre started off as him barely paying him a glance, but quickly became...interesting. Varre's attitude intrigued him, and playing along with his little games became a source of amusement after long hours riding alone through the countryside. Varre's mistrust of the Two Fingers also quickly warmed him up to him after a lifetime being discriminated against for being one of the Nightfolk
-They eventually settled into a fwb relationship before long, during which Varre would test Fenrix's mettle + teach him arcane blood rites, while Fenrix enjoyed teasing him in turn and picking up new weapon tricks to help him survive. Doesn't help that Fenrix himself is a dom with a bit of a sadomachistic streak who hadn't had much of a chance to lay with others on account of him being one of the Nightfolk, while Varre is a sadist switch
-Begin corruption arc, where over the course of the game Fenrix begins to care less and less for his fellow Tarnished, and more with getting stronger via any means necessary. He still has some vague sense of chivalry about him, but he no longer cares about negating harm as much as he's interested in felling the next challenge set before him. Previously scorned tactics (like rot and poison on top of bleed) start to be integrated into his fighting style, and Varre starts to take notice of his growing boldness and ease with killing- much to his own dismay. The soft-spoken, sweet knight who demanded a fair match when he first met him got replaced with someone who would hunt fellow Tarnished so he could have a chance to slay the God-Devouring Serpent, and while he himself had set him on that path, the knowledge unsettled him
-Eventually, Varre sees him more as a threat than a potential partner, and sends him off. Unfortunately, they both have a bit of an unspoken crush on each other by now, so when Fenrix ends up in Ranni's service and helps her kill her Fingers, he becomes her consort only in political name. Ranni herself is fine with this, for she knew he loved her only as a friend from the very beginning, and is perfectly willing to turn a blind eye to whatever cruel hemorrhaging nonsense Fenrix utilizes to get more powerful.
-More demigods are felled, more great runes are gathered, and his hunger for challenge grows stronger. Maliketh is slain. So is Radagon, and the Elden Beast, bled out with blades with saw-like teeth and omen-cursed bloodflame. He sends Ranni off on her dark path, and becomes Elden Lord, though he still has no real desire to be a ruler other than a vague 'break the Golden Order and stop its judgement'. Omens and Misbegotten are freed, harming Nightfolk and blasphemers becomes a crime, and the Lord stagnates from the boredom of his station back on earth, while Ranni walks among the stars to become a god in her own right
-Eventually, the lack of a challenge gets to him, and he goes back to fighting his way around for fun, which results in him meeting up with Varre again. While Varre is still cautious about him, doubly so now that Fenrix is Elden Lord, there's not really much that he can do other than welcome him when Fenrix himself stumbles in from the sending-gate used to kidnap Miquella
-As it turns out, finding the Mohgwyn dynasty was quite possibly the best discovery for a bored Elden Lord who's grown adept in the blood arts. He now has his calling, and it is to usurp the Lord of Blood, to break the Formless Mother to his will, and to learn the truth of blood magic to slake his own curiosity.
-So how does he do this? Well, he has two options. Either he brings down the armies and takes over the dynasty as Elden Lord (which would upset Varre, so he'd rather avoid it), or he cleans up the mess Mohg made of his sad attempt at a dynasty by making Mohg his consort, replacing Miquella and turning him against the Formless Mother via a mix of a show of power and actual displays of affection. Which are all somewhat faked, for if it fails then he will simply kill Mohg, but the touch starvation and knowledge of the family problems he got after defeating Morgott means he can manipulate Mohg with relative ease
-Which...he DOES actually feel for both Omen siblings, and doesn't wish to cause them more pain than necessary. But Mohg is kind of a major problem in many different ways, and a mercy kill is out of the question because Varre is obsessed with him, so he goes for the more insidious manipulative route instead
-So the plans becomes this: A.) Woo Mohg with his strength and cunning. Wed the Lord of Blood, and give him children (either via his own body or by making Mohg pregnant), knowing full well that his past parental trauma would have him entirely focused on his children and facade of a family instead of the Formless Mother. Fix the Miquella problem by either killing him if he pupates, or cart him off to the Haligtree before that happens. Kill the Formless Mother, eat her heart, and become the Blood God of Truth instead, or:
-B.) Kill Mohg, then neutralize the Formless Mother. Wait for Miquella to hatch, and offer an alliance of houses to kill the Formless Mother with an Empyrean's vengeful wrath. Either wed him for power or use said vengence-aid as a blood pact so that the God of Sleep no longer becomes a problem, returning him to Malenia's bloom either way. Deal with Varre's grief somehow. Become the God of Truth
-B is more messy, and Miquella creeps him tf out, so plan A is what he goes for
-Hence the fuckery of the new Elden Lord starting a poly relationship with an insane cult leader and his devouted follower so he can have his boyfriend and woo Mohg specifically to remove him from power so he can devour his god. Mogh is unaware of Fenrix's aptitude for killing gods + the fact that he felled Morgott, and Fenrix intends to keep him in the dark. Varre is more than fine with this arrangement, mostly because Fenrix decides that the Mausoleum is too rancid for his godly consort, and gives both Mohg and Varre suitable rooms in the palace
-As for Fenrix's view of Mohg? Well, it goes from mildly disgusted pity to some form of genuine affection after he pries him away from both the Formless Mother and Miquella. Since Fenrix himself wishes to slay and take the position of the Formless mother, he's still very much encouraging Mohg to embrace his cursed blood and general weirdness, but his fascination with whatever tf is wrong with him is soon overridden by him being charmed by how desperate Mohg is for affection- and how malleable he is when given just a scrap of said affection
-This is very much not an 'I can fix him' arc, this is an 'I can give him a soft bed and a collar around his throat and make him pregnant' arc lmfaooo
General tidbits:
-Fenrix is 6'3"
-He is also trans, and transitioned before coming to the Lands Between. He's very comfortable with a vagina, as he has a magical strap to give him his dickly needs, but he's also fine with magically swapping if he wants
-He's a dom and likes to tease Varre for the fun of it. His sadist streak doesn't really rise up until he decides that its fun to turn it on Varre, who delights in it in turn
-He's got a lot of good intentions, the problem is that he decided to throw away chivalry and generally good manners os he can do whatever it takes to get to said point.
-Romance? ...Maybe. He feels it, but he's really bad at showing it. Acts of service or teasing is the most you'll get from him. He's not a very emotionally close lover, though he's poly as hell and very touch-affectionate
-Loves jokes, jests, puzzles, and any sort of tomfoolery. The mercenaries who named him after a corvid knew him well.
-The 'make Mohg pregnant' idea didn't happen until after he laid with him and realized he has a working womb (mixed genitals isn't actually a crucible trait, it's a Marika trait. Thanks, mom). He'd survive birthing an omen babe, and is fine with the idea of parenthood, but he'd rather not deal with labour issues via massive children if he didn't have to. Mohg bearing them also means he's more likely to turn on the Formless Mother if he sees her as a threat, which works perfectly in his favor
-Has a fascination with grafting, but politely declined Godrick's services for a dick transplant simply bc he did not trust the cleanliness of his work conditions. This worked in his favor once he realized Rennala was able to give him an actual dick and balls via rebirth
-Good friends with Ranni, as both are clever and scheming and (generally) have good intentions. They write to each other sometimes
-Might have accidentally put Morgott in a coma and hid him in the palace basement instead of dealing with it (since I dont like the idea of him being dead-dead). Stole his sword and loves playing with it
-absolutely ADORES Torrent and pampers him to no end. Always has rowa raisins in his back pocket
-Never wanted kids, but isn't opposed to it. Probably won't actually be super affectionate until after they're born, though, because he's weak for small animals

haven't got the time nor the spoons to do one of those fancy fake item pics, but for Fenrix his two items would be the White Raven's Trickery and the Mercenary's Trick Talisman. The White Raven's Trickery would be an item similar to the mimic veil that allows you to transform into a randomized passive prey animal of the region you're in to allow greater sneaking past enemies, while the Mercenary's Trick Talisman would increase the rate at which status effects prop if you're powerstancing two weapons with different status effects. So if you're using a frost twinblade with a bleed twinblade, both statuses would proc faster because there's a percentage boost with the talisman equipped.
And yes, both of these are designed specifically to nuke pve/make pvp Worse, which is exactly on par for a bored Elden Lord with a mischievous streak and the desire to make terrible new weapon combos so that he can shred big enemies while still having fun

'Sup, I'm Aren, he/him. This is not an rp blog, I just happen to really like Fortissax. This is for me to post ideas and theories about the lore of the game, as well as stash any art and writing I do for Elden Ring.
*My main blog: @ruthlesslistener
*My Ao3: ruthlesslistener
*Like I said, I'm over 18 and bi as hell so this will have not safe for work content on it. That'll be appropriately tagged as #elden ring nsft or #baddragonposting no matter if it's suggestive content or me just being horny for old men. #baddragonposting is exclusively for me being horny about old men, though.
*If I draw anything, it'll be tagged as #arenart to try to narrow down tumblr's tagging mess
*I love getting asks, so fire away! It can be anything from asking about what I think of a character to other lore theories to yelling about something in-game. I might be blunt about some things, but I promise I enjoy talking to y'all
*NO incest/noncon/underage ships will be depicted here. I'm fascinated by Mohg and Miquella both, but I very much do not read Mohg as being legitimatly attracted to Miquella or visa versa, and none of my lore posts on them should be viewed through a shipping lens
Current OCs:
-Fenrix, the White Raven
-Banished Knight Leysha, Lady of Leyndell
