+----
+**Godrick the Grafted** is the first major **Shardbearer** boss in *Elden Ring*, encountered at the end of **Stormveil Castle**. Obsessed with power, Godrick has grafted the limbs of fallen warriors to his own body, becoming a grotesque symbol of desperation and ambition.

 === 🧠 General Tips ===
-* Godrick's axe attacks have wide arcs and big wind-ups — dodge sideways, not backward.
+* His attack chains are long — don’t dodge early.
-* His stomp attacks have AoE shockwaves — jump to avoid them.
+* Roll toward him to avoid axe sweeps and capitalize on his recovery windows.
-* Be cautious in Phase 2: the dragon arm attacks have extended range and fire effects.
+* Keep a mid-range distance during Phase 2 to avoid fire and slams.
+* Bleed and Fire builds can chew through him surprisingly fast.
 === 🔥 Phase 1 ===
-* Uses a large golden axe and aggressive combos.
+* Heavy axe swings and wide combos
-* Key attacks:
+* Uses stomps and wind attacks to knock players down
-  - Horizontal axe combos (3–5 hits)
+* One of the hardest-hitting bosses this early in the game
-  - Ground stomp with AoE quake
-  - Whirlwind with roll catch potential
 === 🔥 Phase 2 (50% HP Trigger) ===
-* Godrick grafts a **dragon’s head** to his arm, gaining fire attacks.
+* Cuts off his own arm and grafts a **dragon head**
-* Key attacks:
+* Gains **flame breath**, **explosive fire slams**, and **longer reach**
-  - Dragon fire cone breath
+* Fire resistance, dodging through flame cones, and ranged spells are key
-  - Dragon claw slam + fire burst
-  - Whirlwind → jumping slam → fire explosion
-Use ranged attacks or Spirit Ashes to distract him and create distance when he uses fire-based moves.

 ===== 📖 Lore =====
-Godrick is a distant relation of **Queen Marika** and claims descent from the **Golden Lineage**. However, he is regarded as weak and delusional by other demigods. His obsession with grafting limbs reflects his desperation to become more powerful.
+Godrick is a distant relative of **Queen Marika** and claims descent from **Godfrey**, the first Elden Lord. His inferiority complex led to the grotesque act of **grafting limbs** from fallen warriors and demigods onto himself.
-> *“I command thee, kneel! I am the lord of all that is golden!”*
+Though widely mocked by other Shardbearers, his desperation makes him terrifying in combat — and symbolic of the corruption that grips the Lands Between.
 ----
 ===== 🧩 Trivia =====
-* His voice lines and animation hint at his inferiority complex and need to be feared.
+* You can hear Godrick **screaming at the limbs** attached to his back when idle.
-* **Nepheli Loux**, who opposes Godrick, can be summoned to aid you in this battle.
+* His quote *"Grovel before me!"* is referenced throughout the community.
+* If you defeat him with **Nepheli Loux** alive, you unlock bonus dialogue at Roundtable Hold.
