In the vastness of the Elden Ring, you can interact with a variety of NPCs, but Blaidd, the Half-Wolf, or you may say the werewolf, appears to be the most popular.
Blaidd is one of the most unusual and fascinating people that players can meet while exploring the Lands Between, thanks to his fantastic look, engaging voice, and interesting lines of dialogue.
You may have asked yourself can you be the werewolf in the Elden Ring? Can you equip the werewolf or Blaidd’s armor in the Elden Ring? Your cravings for the armor of Blaidd are gonna get fulfilled.
Follow our guide to get that werewolf armor on your skin.
You can follow the procedures below to become the werewolf in the Elden Ring or you can directly start Ranni’s Rise when the time is right.
The Beginning
If you go to the Mistwood in eastern Limgrave early on, you could run into Blaidd the Half-Wolf. You could hear a wolf cry among the overgrown Mistwood Ruins. And thus Blaidd’s quest starts.
To begin Blaidd’s questline, head to the Mistwood Ruins in eastern Limgrave during the night. You’ll hear Blaidd wailing up in a ruined tower; for the time being, you can’t convince him to come down, so walk to the Church of Elleh, which is located just north of The First Step Site of Grace, where you began the game.
When you arrive, chat with the Merchant Kale NPC and inquire about the howling. He will teach you the Finger Snap gesture and advise you to employ it in the area where you heard Blaidd wailing.
Blaidd will then hop down and introduce himself. He’ll then inform you that he’s looking for a man named Darriwil and that if you locate him, you should contact him.
Taking on the Revenge
The Forlorn Hound Evergaol in Limgrave, just south of the Agheel Lake South site of grace, is where you’ll meet Darriwil.
You can call Blaidd to help you fight Bloodhound Knight Darriwil at the Evergaol. If you’re still in the early stages of your trip through The Lands Between, this may be a difficult boss to face; there’s no shame in leveling up and returning later.
You can aid him if you have access to fire or lightning items or spells, as his resistances to these elements are poor.
After beating Darriwil, Blaidd will emerge outside the Evergaol for a brief conversation.
Blaidd will reward you with some rare smithing stones for your assistance in his quest and will encourage you to go see his friend Iji.
If you haven’t been passed Stormveil Castle yet, your trip with Blaidd will need to come to a halt here so you can make some plot advancement.
Benefit from a Relationship
In northern Liurnia, on the western border of the lake, you’ll discover the Road to the Manor, where the enormous blacksmith Iji dwells. By informing him that Blaidd sent you, you’ll gain access to the Carian Filigreed Crest, a talisman that decreases the FP cost of your weapon abilities by 25%.
Ranni’s Rise Questline
The next phase in Blaidd’s quest is to start Ranni’s, which you may accomplish by visiting Caria Manor in northern Liurnia of the Lakes and speaking to her at the top of Ranni’s Rise.
She will inform you that Blaidd is one of her most devoted followers and that you should meet with him, as well as her other slaves, on the bottom level of her tower.
If you do, he will tell you that he will meet you at the Siofra River area to try to figure out how to travel to Nokron, Eternal City, and retrieve Ranni’s riches. This region is accessible through the Mistwood Forest from the Siofra River Well in eastern Limgrave.
Once in the Siofra River area, follow the river’s eastern bank until you reach Blaidd.
He’ll say that he hasn’t been able to locate a route inside Nokron, Eternal City and that you should seek guidance from Seluvis, another of Ranni’s employees. Seluvis may be found at Seluvis’ Rise, a tower just southeast of Ranni’s Rise.
Seluvis will tell you about a sorceress named Sellen who may be able to help you find your way to Nokron and will give you a letter to send to her. Sellen may be found in Limgrave’s Waypoint Ruins, behind a stone door that can only be unlocked after defeating the miniboss Mad Pumpkin Head.
She will inform you that in order to reach Nokron, you must discover and destroy Starscourge Radahn in order to break the stasis he imposed on the stars.
You must next return to Blaidd in the Siofra River and inform him of Sellen’s suggestion. Blaidd offers to meet you at Caelid’s Redmane Castle to fight Radahn with you.
Blaidd advises you to meet Radahn where the meteor landed, but if you merely follow Ranni’s mission and walk below to the everlasting city, you won’t see the Half-Wolf again until the end.
Instead, return to visit the Forlorn Hound Evergaol in Limgrave to see our wonderful lad once more. As you approach, you’ll hear him wailing; stand in the center to speak with him and then liberate him.
Blaidd will inform you that Iji imprisoned him there for unknown reasons.
Step 8: Discover the truth about Blaidd
You can find out if you return to Iji. The giant will inform you that Blaidd was given to Ranni to be her shadow and follow her everywhere, but with Ranni’s path straying from the Greater Will, Blaidd will go insane.
Final Piece of the Set
After completing the Ranni’s Rise questline return to Ranni’s Rise with the Dark Moon Greatsword in hand to hear of Blaidd’s eventual destiny; the Half-Wolf may be located outside the tower’s door, and he’s regrettably succumbed to the lunacy that Iji foretold. He was a good boy, but it was time to say goodbye.
This will provide you with Blaidd’s werewolf armor set as well as his Royal Greatsword, a massive weapon that scales largely with strength and intellect. (By the way, a helm resembling Blaidd’s visage can be discovered close behind Seluvis’ Rise if you want to complete the set.)
Conclusion
Hope that you finally got your hands on the Half-Wolf armor set now.
The item descriptions for Blaidd’s gear suggest that when the Two Fingers gave him to Ranni, he was indoctrinated to turn on her and kill her if she ever dared to oppose them (which she does in her questline).
After the battle, speak with Blacksmith Iji, who will express sadness about Blaidd and wish he had handled the issue with Blaidd better.
