As you explore the world of Elden Ring, you’ll likely notice small stone carvings that look like a person attached to a crescent-shaped symbol. This is a Martyr Effigy, and they indicate that you are in an area where you can summon other players (or, in the case of some boss fights, AI-controlled NPCs). Simply interact with one using the Y button to activate the Effigy and allow for summoning. To see the summoning signs that other players have left there, you’ll need to use a craftable item called a Furlcalling Finger Remedy (more on that below). When you do see the Summon Signs on the ground near an Effigy, you can see that cooperative signs are gold and competitive signs are red. In the Lands Between ruled by Queen Marika the Eternal, the Elden Ring, the source of the Erdtree, has been shattered. As you travel through the Land Between you will feel glimpses of the Elden Rings power unravel its mysteries, encounter adversaries that want the ring for their own gain, characters that might help or hinder your progress, and fearsome creatures that you have never seen before. Bloody Finger– Want to invade another player’s world? You can use one of these, but you’ll need to craft a new one once you’ve returned to your own world. You also won’t get it until a few (or more!) hours into the game. Marika's offspring, demigods all, claimed the shards of the Elden Ring known as the Great Runes, and the mad taint of their newfound strength triggered a war: The Shattering. A war that meant abandonment by the Greater Will.

Furlcalling Finger Remedy– As mentioned above, this item allows you to see any Summon Signs on the ground in your area. While this isn’t an infinite use item like the Furled Finger and Golden Effigy, you can easily craft one of these in the Crafting Menu using two of the basic flowers you’ll find all over the starting area. The Elden Ring is destroyed. Its fragments, scattered all over the world, arouse in the gods a desire to possess them. The incredible power of the artifacts transforms the gods into raging creatures taken over by madness. Return from exile and rise as one of those worthy of collecting the Elden Ring pieces.
