Description
Fire Knight is a Humanoid Enemy in Elden Ring. Fire Knight is an enemy that was exclusively added to the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. The Fire Knights serve directly under the command of Messmer, being the only ones who truly understand him. They are intimately familiar with his serpent-like flames and the suffering tied to his cursed existence. These enemies can only be encountered within the Shadow KeepDungeon. Named fire knights that do not respawn include Wego, Kood, and Salza.
Adorned in a pointed helm and armor featuring a red cape and twin golden snakes around the neck that enhances Messmer's flame incantations, each knight hails from a renowned family of the Erdtree's upper echelons. However, they were shunned and exiled from their homes after swearing loyalty to Messmer as their master. Fire Knight Queelign devoted his all to the crusade, and remade his greatsword in the shape of the lance wielded by his liege—aspiring to become a second Impaler.
The spirit of a Fire Knight can be summoned for aid in battle by using the Fire Knight Hilde Spirit Ashes.
