So the NF page here has two images, so here they are for context...

"Join the Serpent King as family... Together, we will devour the very gods."

"Come no closer! The madness wells…"

Now I do like the second image as the horror here is a lot more visible and visceral... but it's also used in said character's own profile as shown here.

I do have an idea of my own, but it might lean a little too close to Bears Are Bad News, but here I go...

Even if the human character is making a badass pose, the bear's huge size, plus their RL reputation might be enough to give it the NF edge here, but who knows...

[up][tup]

Edit: though if possible, could it be a little taller and uncrop the top part of the stick in that poor guys eye? I feel it'd make his situation both clearer and more horrifying.

1.2 pending if Earnest's suggestion can be done.

Home now, so putting my money where my mouth is (blah, tastes papery and irony!).

1.2 with a taller crop.

There's gotta be a better way to work out my lats.

IMO 1.1 is scarier because of the uncanny valley of a human face on a giant centipede monster.

10 works. The human face is barely visible in 1.1.

[tup] to 10, but it’s also worth noting that’s from the recent DLC. Should we still look for an image from the main game?

Do not mess with creatures which you do not understand.

[up][up] The DLC does have a subpage, but the subpage doesn't have a NF sub-subpage, so it should be fine for now. If it does get a subpage for NF we can move it there and select again.

There's enough consensus for the idea; 10 is in and tagged and both the old pics (noted in the OP) are pulled. Caption?

I think Midra's quote when he dislodges the Greatsword of Damnation is fitting: "Enough... I have endured... More than enough..."

Eh, good enough.

The cropped version of the chosen image was already on Characters.Elden Ring Land Of Shadow as the first image for Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame.

[up] I think there's also separate IP thread for remembrance bosses.

Eh, good enough.
