Dragon’s Dogma 2 Races: Elves

Embarking on the epic journey offered by Dragon’s Dogma 2 brings forth a critical decision— the choice of race. Capcom, through official channels and trailers, has revealed intriguing details about the playable races intricately tied to distinct locations within the game.

In this article, we delve into the lore and unique characteristics of the Elvish race in Dragon’s Dogma 2.

Elvish language

In Dragon’s Dogma 2 the Elvish language will feature prominently in the remote village of Sacred Arbor. Your main pawn will have the ability to learn the language opening up a unique quest and series of events with two elvish characters, Glyndwr and Doireann.

The prominence of the Elvish language in their settlements adds a layer of authenticity to their unique culture. Additionally, the Character Creator in Dragon’s Dogma 2 provides intriguing options. Players can customize human characters to resemble Elves by editing the tips of their ears, offering a touch of Elvish ancestry even within the constraints of the playable races.

All Playable Races in Dragon’s Dogma 2

Two confirmed races are playable in Dragon’s Dogma 2: Humans and Beastren.

Humans

Inhabiting the resplendent Kingdom of Vermund, the humans of Dragon’s Dogma 2 find themselves entangled in conspiracies to seize the throne. The lush green land with a fortified city at its heart becomes the backdrop for political machinations, with Queen Regent Disa supporting a false Arisen upon the throne.

Beastren

The Beastren possess a muscular and bulky appearance, drawing inspiration from real-world lions of the African savannah. Predominantly populating the nation of Battahl, characterized by steep canyons, ancient ruins, and intricately hand-carved cities, the Beastren bring a unique flavor to Dragon’s Dogma 2 with their own political intrigue surrounding the lambent flame.

Character Creation

The character creation system in Dragon’s Dogma 2 allows players to craft their Arisen from the available races.

At launch, Humans and Beastren stand as the two playable races for character creation. This limitation might disappoint elf enthusiasts, but Capcom offers a silver lining — elves can still become part of the adventure as potential pawns or followers.

The character creator also introduces the fascinating option to infuse Elvish features into human characters, allowing for a diverse range of appearances.

Story

It appears that the protagonist and their party members will encounter the elves at the Sacred Arbor and within this beautiful location we will look for the reasons why the elves watch life from the middle of the fence between the Beastren and the Human nations.

The only example of what narrative awaits us is on Capcom’s website with two descriptions on Glyndwr and his sister Doireann. We know that these elves while reclusive see combat and strike with precision as Glyndwr is ashamed of his lack of skill in archery which is essential for an elven guard.

What’s more, is that this race appears to be integral to the main story progression as a bridge location between the two more prominent confirmed races of Humans and Beastren.

Final Word

As Dragon’s Dogma 2 approaches its release, the revelations about playable races, character creation, and the intricate world it offers heighten the anticipation.

Whether you choose to play as a human navigating political conspiracies, a Beastren exploring canyons and ruins, or encounter the enigmatic Elves with their unique language, the game promises an immersive RPG experience.
