Grave Warden Duelist

Grave Warden Duelist is an enemy and reoccurring boss in ELDEN RING ⁽²⁰²²⁾.

Overview

Former gladiators who were exiled from the colosseum. They wear bronze armor adorned with snakes, which are viewed as traitors to the Erdtree, and as such the audiences of their duels would delight in seeing them beaten and battered.

After their banishment, they became grave wardens, and can be found in catacombs. Some have been infected by the Scarlet Rot.
