Godrick the Grafted, formerly known as Godrick the Golden, is a major antagonist in From Software's 2022 dark fantasy RPG Elden Ring.

A distant descendant of the Golden Lineage of Marika and Godfrey, Godrick is considered the weakest of the Demigods, to the point where he began grafting the limbs of likely dozens of Tarnished onto his body to compensate.

He is voiced by Ramon Tikaram.

What makes him a Hate Sink?

• Conquered Limgrave with an army of soldiers, ruling the province as a tyrant and using Stormveil Castle as a personal laboratory to experiment with grafting.
• At some point, during his experiments, he created the Grafted Scions, living monstrosities constructed from limbs grafted onto the bodies of children.
  • One of these would then go onto to attack the Tarnished of No Renown.
• He began sending his soldiers to hunt for the returning Tarnished, murdering them and grafting their limbs onto his body.
• He disrespected Malenia when she began her southward march, leading to a battle where he was left humiliated and begging for mercy.
• Is generally considered a pathetic madman amongst the Demigods, with even the game itself contradicting his self-proclaimed status as "lord of all that is golden" by semi-consistently referring to him as "the Grafted," with only Morgott and a solitary lore tome calling him "Godrick the Golden."
