Players when they start their first-ever play-through of Elden Ring are sure to come across some of the most unique characters they might have ever seen in the world of gaming. From shapeshifting bears to demigods to literal gods and their manifestations, the game contains every type of creature one might want to witness.

Furthermore, while outer gods can be considered foreign existence to The Lands Between, what many players do not likely know is the fact that they have fought literal aliens on their journey to become the Elden Lord. What makes it more intriguing is how it is not only in one instance but multiple instances, that we get to face off against an alien life.

How Elden Ring Players Have Fought Aliens In Their Journey Of The Lands Between

Out of the many distinguishable enemies that we get a chance to defeat in Elden Ring, there are a few who are able to use gravity magic to their advantage. Apart from Starscourge Radahn, who mastered the art of gravity magic in the town of Sellia, there are a few other enemies whom our tarnished character has a hard time defeating.

To begin with, there are the Onyx and Alabaster Lords, whose origins arise from an era defined by the impact of a meteor on The Lands Between. Both of these enemies have blades imbued with gravity magic and are feared throughout for their power, earning them the title of Lord.

Other than the Onyx and Alabaster Lords, there is also the Fallingstar beast that the player encounters on three different occasions, these being in the Altus Plateau, Sellia Crystal Tunnel, and lastly on Mt. Glemir. Likewise, there is also the Astel boss, whom the player gets the opportunity to defeat twice, with the mandate of defeating Astel, Naturalborn Of the Void to unlock the Age of Stars ending.
