What WAS Godfrey to Marika, exactly?

Was he a consort, like the player is to Ranni (potentially) or Radahn is to Miquella? Or is he just the strongest, most convenient person to have offspring with until Marika split herself into Radagon and created the Tarnished by sending Godfrey off until it was resurrection time for everyone?

Further, I know we as the player become Elden Lord in the default ending, and that it’s a continuation of the Golden Order, but what does that mean exactly? Are we Marika’s replacement, her consort, or a Greater Will puppet?

Sorry if this is all easily answered in game, but I get really confused about the story by the time the ending rolls around.

Basic Keen twinblade with no status- can it work?

I’ve recently been playing around with limiting my reliance on statuses, as I realize each character I play usually uses bleed, or rot, or frostbite, and I’ve decided to start a character that will only stack damage buffs, no statuses. I’ve been having a ton of fun with a dual heavy straight sword run focusing on square off and staggers, but it got me thinking about the dexterity side of things, and more than that, straight R1/L1 attacks with no jump spam.

Obviously Millicent’s Prosthesis and Winged Sword are the play here, probably turtle too, but I’m wondering if this will even be viable past Caelid. Twinblades without status build up are… mid at best. What are your thoughts on trying to make this kind-of challenge run work?

SotE ashes included, what are your thoughts on Dung Eater Puppet?

I think he’s really underrated especially as a companion to a bleed focused character. The only thing I see people post about him is that he can tank well, but he also inflicts bleed and debuffs with his sword of milos. Granted, he doesn’t have the tanking power of Taylew or the DoT of Tiche, but I still think he’s a really good ash, top 5 for me. I recommend going through the Seluvis quest and trying him if you haven’t done it yet.

Also he completely deserves to get puppet’d and commanded by the tarnished for eternity.
