Godrick the Grafted

Godrick is a demi-god related to Marika and the first Elden Lord, Godfrey. He is of the Golden Lineage, but despite it, many consider him unfit to rule due to the fact his blood is sorely diluted and thus makes him one of the weakest demi-gods. His original body was frail and weak, so much of his power comes from the soldiers he's grafted onto himself.

Despite being weak from birth, he's done many ballsy feats before his grafting, even if it resulted in his defeat.

During the Shattering he challenged Malenia, Blade of Miquella to a fight. He lost horribly and had to kiss her boots to beg for mercy. She let him live. Godrick held Stormveil strong when General Radhan attacked it. After the siege he still had enough manpower to continue to keep Limgrave in his grasp despite the carnage he faced. Godrick has led a siege on the capital, Leyndell, and lost but still managed to retreat safely back to Stormveil.

Godrick started grafting shortly after his fight with Malenia in attempts to become stronger. He took inspiration from Godefroy, a forebear of his that also grafted.

Godrick is insecure about the fact that he is weak, but does his best to still live up to his lineage. He strives to try and gain power, to become as strong as the other demi-gods in hope of becoming Elden Lord. He does his best with the destiny that all demi-gods are expected to live up to.

He is boastful about his lineage though. He doesn't seem to care that his heritage is diluted. He proudly proclaims he is the Lord of all that is Golden, and is confident in what little power he has. Like the other demi-gods, Godrick despises the Tarnished. Despite his many defeats, Godrick is cunning and arguably the bravest. He knows how to get himself in and out of hot water either by talking his way out of it or physically escaping.

Godrick's body before his grafting looked like a typical old man. Thin and frail, with pale skin. His body after grafting was much bigger as he added more flesh and limbs to himself. He constantly has to replace old limbs after a while else they'll rot. He is quite handsome, even though he appears old. Godrick has long white hair with two braids in front of his ears, the rest of it flowing freely down his back. He has an aquiline nose, yellow irises, and full lips. He has age lines and dark circles.

Godrick almost always wears a gold crown. He wields a large golden axe in his right hand, and a smaller iron axe in any of his grafted limbs, depending on which one is long enough to swing and hit an enemy.
