All NPC Quest Lines In Elden Ring

Elden Ring boasts a rich tapestry of NPC questlines, significantly enriching the game's lore and even unlocking otherwise inaccessible areas. FromSoftware's characteristically cryptic storytelling, however, often makes initiating these quests challenging due to the absence of map markers or explicit quest guidance. This guide provides a concise overview of nearly 30 intertwined NPC quests, offering links to comprehensive walkthroughs for each.
