Ranni the Witch
Ranni is a character from the 2022 video game Elden Ring developed by FromSoftware. A powerful and enigmatic witch inhabiting the body of a human-sized doll, Ranni plays a major role in the game's story. She is most notable for being the primary catalyst to the events of Elden Ring, and the instigator of one of the game's main quest lines, culminating in the hidden "Age of Stars" ending in which the player character becomes her royal consort. She desires to overthrow the Greater Will, the Outer God that created the eponymous Elden Ring, replacing it with the power of the Dark Moon.
Tournament History[edit]
Ranni has been noted for quickly establishing herself as a breakout character and popular /v/idya waifu thanks to her design and compelling storyline. This led her to achieving an Elite Eight status upon her very debut in the Queen of /v/ 2022 tournament.
Ranni would return to the Queen of /v/ brackets two years later to anticipation, but in a rather shocking development the witch would be bested in the very first round by the much lower seeded Neco-Arc. This has led to some questioning her strength as a character long-term, although whether this could have merely been one instance of bad luck or a firm statement on her popularity going forward remains to be seen.
