AnElden Ringplayer has painted an impressive rendition of Albinaurics walking in the snow using Microsoft Paint. Locations inElden Ringrange from celestial and awe-inspiring to dark, rugged, and foreboding, and this painting depicts the Albinaurics in a setting fitting to the more rugged aspects of the game.
Albinaurics are humanoid enemies inElden Ring, said to have been artificially made “by human hands.” The Albinaurics come in two distinct forms, the First Generation which looks much closer to being human, and the Second Generation which looks a lot more mutated. The name can also be roughly translated to “bright/white aura” in Latin. In true Soulsborne fashion, thelore behind the Albinauricsis never fully revealed, though it is heavily implied that due to being man-made, they are not blessed with Grace from the Erdtree, meaning that many are drawn to seek salvation in another tree, Miquella’s Haligtree.

Reddit user Ssosme’s artistic rendering depicts a trio of Second Generation Albinaurics walking through the snow toward the Erdtree rather than the Haligtree. The purpose of the Haligtree is meant to be a refuge for those that are shunned by the rest of the world, with Miquella’s belief that all living things should thrive, while the Erdtree is quite selective about who receives its Grace. While some believe that theErdtree is basically a giant parasite, it is undeniably a stunning feature ofElden Ring, and Ssosme managed to capture its beauty in MS Paint.
Ssosme’s artwork looks very painterly and is rich with textures, capturing the landscape in a way that matches its Romantic era inspirations, previously recaptured in a fan’sgorgeous Liurnia landscape painting. One of the key components of the Romantic era of art was the concept of nature being an overwhelming and immense force that makes humans seem powerless in comparison. The concept linked nature to God and the heavens, which matches themes inElden Ringas shown by how the Erdtree grants beings Grace, and also in the rugged landscapes of The Lands Between.
Elden Ringoffers a vast world to explore in The Lands Between, with various biomes and settings, yet each location is instantly recognizable as distinctlyElden Ring. Each location is as fun to explore as it is challenging, and so it’s no surprise that many have deemedElden Ringas the new benchmark for what the future of open-world games should offer. While not every game will have the budget to create such a fast and intricate open world, games such asHogwarts LegacyhaveElden RingEaster eggsthat show their inspiration and appreciation of the world, and fans continue to make amazing art, such as Ssosme’s MS Paint piece.
Elden Ringis available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
