Just like in the base game, Nightreign characters have their own attributes and stats. Instead of numbers, they’re given letter grades, but knowing these attributes is important when deciding who to play as in Limveld.

These attributes basically make each character more or less proficient with different weapons or spells, along with unique skills and ultimate abilities that help turn the tide of battle while fighting against the Night Lords.

Here’s every current character in Elden Ring: Nightreign, along with their attributes and abilities.
