Elden Ring

Featured Welsh Content

Elden Ring features characters with Welsh names, Welsh accents, and Welsh voice actors, particularly in the area of Liurnia of the Lakes. Welsh language and mythology is also drawn upon for the game’s lore.

Welsh actors that appear in Elden Ring and its expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, include:

Aimee-Ffion Edwards as Ranni; Mali Harries as Rennala and Dominula dancers (Celebrants); Charles Dale as Seluvis; Shane Attwooll as Jerren; Aneirin Hughes as Iji; Matthew Morgan as Thops; Martyn Ellis as Albus and Pidia; Matthew Gravelle as Ymir; Kezia Burrows as one of the female Tarnished and Sellen; Scott Arthur as Blaidd; Nia Roberts as Dominula dancers; and Grahame Fox as Volcano Manor Apparition and Nomadic Merchant 1 (Red-Eyed Merchant Mob A).

The character Blaidd’s name is a Welsh word meaning “wolf”.

Sellen’s Japanese name is Seren, the Welsh word for “star”, aligning with the star-related sorcery that she practices.

There is debate about the naming origins of certain place names in Elden Ring, but some could have roots in the Welsh language.

Although the characters don’t pronounce the location of Caelid as it would be said in Welsh, its name could come from the Welsh words cae (“field”) and lid (“inflamed”), producing the name “Inflamed Field”, which would befit the area well.
