Ranni the Witch (also known as Lunar Princess Ranni) is a character from the 2022 video game Elden Ring, and is voiced by Aimee-Ffion Edwards.[1] A powerful witch, Empyrean, and supporting character inhabiting the body of a human-sized doll, and a major figure in the game's lore, she desires to overthrow the Two Fingers and replace the Golden Order with the power of the Dark Moon. 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. Specializing in frost-based sorcery, she is also able to create powerful magical projections, one of which the player fights after wounding her mother, Queen Rennala.
Ranni has a cold and commanding personality, but helps the player under the alias "Renna". She also feels affection towards her protector, Blaidd the Half-Wolf, and keeps him at her side despite the danger. The two have been noted as fan-favorite characters, and Ranni was praised by critics for her design and morally grey story.
