Caelid is one of the main regions in Elden Ring. This page includes an overview of the area, including all main dungeons, bosses, loot, and secrets to find in this region.

Caelid is the region directly east of Limgrave, and is known for its barren, rot-filled landscape with red skies and terrible swamp. It is one of two regions that make up the greater Caelid region along with Greyoll's Dragonbarrow to the north, which is even more dangerous than its southern counterpart.

Caelid is home to its own Legacy Dungeon that stands far to the southeast - Redmane Castle - though it is quite smaller than other main dungeons. However, there are many small dungeons, side quests, and roaming bosses to tackle as well. It is also home to a giant swamp filled with Scarlet Rot known as the Swamp of Aeonia, and features a narrow but deep ravine separating much of Dragonbarrow from Caelid, as well as the town of sorcery known as Sellia.

Find the locations of all Roaming Bosses, Dungeons, Points of Interest, NPCs, Scarabs, and more with our Interactive Map of Elden Ring.

To reveal the details and topography of the whole Caelid region, you'll need to find two Map Fragments at the Steles located in Caelid proper, and Dragonbarrow.

  • The Caelid Map Fragment is located in plain sight along Caelid's main highway that skirts the Swamp of Aeonia in a large half-circle, and the stele is found near the fork in the road where another path heads further southeast towards Redmane Castle, not far from a Nomadic Merchant. However the road leading to it is marked with danger, including a decaying dragon and one of the Night's Cavalry that patrols at night.

Caelid Legacy Dungeon

Caelid's Legacy Dungeon is called Redmane Castle, and it is the third main dungeon you will encounter naturally in Elden Ring. Compared to previous legacy dungeons like Stormveil Castle, it is a much smaller experience, though the road to castle's entrance is well guarded with siege weaponry, and is the site of a warrior's festival soon to begin. The castle is ruled over by the demigod known as General Starscourge Radahn, though he is not in the castle itself - you can only reach him by going through.

To enter the dungeon, you'll have to cross the expansive greatbridge to the island where the castle sits, and dodge the catapults and ballistas - though you'll find the main gate locked shut. Instead, you'll need to head around the castle walls to the south and along the cliffs to find a rear entrance to find a way inside.

Note: Due to certain story events, it is possible that by engaging in certain side quests or progressing through later game regions, you can trigger Redmane Castle's festival early, prompting all of the outer defenses and many of the enemies inside the castle to despawn.

When you are ready, view our Redmane Castle Walkthrough to learn how to defeat its many enemies and find every secret within.

As you explore the region of Caelid you'll find various friendly (or seemingly friendly) faces you can find and speak to - and even buy and sell with to obtain unique wares.

  • Nomadic Merchant (North Caelid Highway) - This Nomadic Merchant is located right next to the Astray Caelid Highway North Site of Grace, west of the Swamp of Aeonia. The Aeonia Swamp Shore Site of Grace is also east of his location.

  • Gowry - Found inside of Gowry's Shack, Gowry is a former great sage who wishes to cure Millicent of her Scarlet Rot-inflicted illness. He also sells a variety of sorceries, and will also sell a special incantation once you give Milicent the Valkyrie's Prosthesis and report back to him - though he will disappear once you progress to a certain point in Millicent Questline.

You can pick up his Bell Bearing where he once was and give it to the Twin Maiden Husks to access his wares.

  • Milicent - A young woman, suffering from the incurable Scarlet Rot, Millicent is first found inside the Church of the Plague, writhing in pain next to the statue. Once you've done Gowry's favor and cured her of the Scarlet Rot, she will move to the Altus Plateau. Check out our Millicent Questline to learn more.
  • Nomadic Merchant (South Caelid Highway) - The second Nomadic Merchant in Caelid is located at the fork road that splits the highway into two—one towards Redmane Castle and one to Sellia, Town of Sorcery. He notably sells the Nomadic Warrior's Cookbook 15.

  • Castellan Jerren - Castellan Jerren is an NPC you first meet inside Redmane Castle. He's there to participate in the festival thrown for General Radahn; you can summon him for help during the fight against the demigod. Jerren is also an important NPC in Sorceress Sellen Questline. Once Radahn has been defeated, you can talk to Jerren one last time to "end" the festival, and repopulate the castle with enemies.

Caelid is home to many interesting locations, enemy camps, and other points of interest that you can discover in your journeys. Though they differ in the enemies and treasure found within, each place has something worth discovering.

Note: Though the first seven of these POIs are part of Caelid, they are revealed after obtaining the map of East Limgrave.

Smoldering Church

You'll find the Smoldering Church to the left of the main road that connects Limgrave to Caelid. Get ready for a battle—as soon as you enter the church, you'll be invaded by NPC Invader Anastasia, Tarnished-Eater. She's relatively easy to stagger, but her Curved Greatswords can be deceivingly fast. Upon defeat, she'll drop the Sacred Scorpion Charm and a Furcalling Finger Remedy.

Hit the Site of Grace inside and loot the Missionary's Cookbook 3 and the Nomadic Warrior Cookbook 14 from the two corpses on the church's right before continuing onward.

Shack of the Rotting

advertisement

Moving deeper into Caelid from the Smoldering Church, you'll soon run into these run-down shacks plagued by Putrid Corpses and Slimes. There is no major item to loot here, though you can find Preserving Boluses inside the main shack—an antidote to Scarlet Rot buildup. Just be wary of the Putrid Corpse waiting to ambush you from the corner.

There is also a Site of Grace by the cliffs overlooking the ruins below.

Ruined Camp

This Ruined Camp is located below the hill where the main road continues from the Shack of the Rotting. Now overrun by Giant Scavenger Dogs and Giant Crows, this former camp contains a few great loots to pick up.

Before engaging in the camp, we recommend running past it and hitting the Caelem Ruins Site of Grace just further up the road. Activating this Site of Grace will ensure an easier time to either deal with one enemy at a time or sneak up past them to loot the items safely.

Stealthily move up to the abandoned carriage next to the two Giant Scavenger Dogs and grab the Greatsword inside the chest. The middle of the camp contains a Rune Arc inside of a chest and six Explosive Bolts from a corpse. You'll need to dispose of the Giant Crow in the middle; as long as you keep the fight inside, the dogs would not join in.

The Teardrop Scarab in the front will roll away from the camp as long as you come up behind it. Kill it to get the Whirl, O Flame! incantation.

Caelem Ruins

Just south of the Ruined Camp, Caelem Ruins can be spotted along the Caelid Highway. The highway cuts into the ruins, making it impossible to miss if you're venturing on the main road. There are tons of Exploding Corpses and Flame Chariots roaming the surrounding area. Try to create distance with both of these enemies, as the former will explode and kill themselves. As for the Flame Chariots, fight them while riding Torrent and aim for the soldier operating the chariots from the back.

The eastern part of the ruins contains an entry to a boss room. Inside you'll find a duo of Mad Pumpkin Head. Defeating them will reward you access to a treasure room that holds the Visage Shield.

advertisement

Forsaken Ruins

The Forsaken Ruins are the same ruins you can see from the Shack of the Rotting. Head west from the Caelem Ruins, away from the highway. Be careful of the Giant Crow duo waiting to attack from atop the nearby dead trees. There is an Imp Statue here that you can use a Stonesword Key to remove the fog from the entry of the cellar. You'll find a treasure chest inside the underground room containing the Sword of St. Trina.

Fort Gael

This massive fort can be accessed either by heading west of the Smoldering Wall Site of Grace or south of the Forsaken Ruins and hitting the Fort Gael North Site of Grace.

Just from afar, you'll see that Radahn Soldiers and Radahn Knights heavily guard Fort Gael's main entry. One Radahn Knight will shoot gravity arrows at you as soon as you get close to the fort's entry path. Dodge everyone else and kill him for his Greatbow.

Head to the fort's main gate and go around the corner where a Radahn Soldier is guarding a ladder—kill him and go up the ladder. You'll see a Lion Guardian and a Radahn Soldier down below, don't engage them until you clear the loot and enemies above.

Move towards the watchtower and get rid of the two Radahn Soldiers and one Radahn Knight inside. There will be a destroyed canopy with a treasure chest on the right side; loot the Starscourge Heirloom from it. The Waygate atop the watchtower will teleport you near the entrance of Redmane Castle. Don't worry about this yet; there are more items to grab.

Make your way back to the wooden stairs, clear the southwest section of the upper balconies and pull the lever to open the gate.

For bow, sorcery, and incantation users, take advantage of the elevated platform close to the left of the ladder that you can jump down. You can safely kill the Lion Guardian from here without it ever touching you. An archway here will lead you to a room containing a chest with the Katar fist weapon inside.

There is no other way for melee users to fight the Lion Guardian than up close. You'll want to kill the Lion Guardian because it'll drop the Ash of War - Lion's Claw upon defeat. Loot the body next to the gate for a Rune Arc, and Fort Gael is complete. If you choose to explore the surrounding area, feel free to head out from the main entrance. If not, you can use the Waygate to go to Redmane Castle.

advertisement

Caelid Waypoint Ruins

Just a short distance southeast of Fort Gael lies the Caelid Waypoint Ruins, crawling with Kindreds of Rot and Rotten Strays. The entrance to these ruins' underground chamber is located in the northwest section. The chamber is full of stone coffins that are guarded by tons of Kindreds of Rot. Clear them to safely loot the Meteoric Ore Blade katana from the room in the back.

Cathedral of Dragon Communion

You can reach the Cathedral of Dragon Communion by following the direction given by the Caelid Highway South Site of Grace, southeast of the Caelid Waypoint Ruins.

This cathedral is similar to the Church of Dragon Communion located on the island in West Limgrave. Though there are no NPCs here, you can perform the Ritual of Dragon Communion by offering Dragon Hearts to obtain various dragon-based incantations.

Some of the incantations below can only be obtained after defeating various dragon bosses.

Cathedral of Dragon Communion's Incantations
Dragon Fire (Dragon Heart x1)Agheel's Flame (Dragon Heart x2) (Flying Dragon Agheel)Magma Breath x5 (Dragon Heart x1) (Magma Wyrm)Theodorix's Magma (Dragon Heart x2) (Great Wyrm Theodorix)Glintstone Breath (Dragon Heart x1)
Smarag's Glintstone Breath (Dragon Heart x 1) (Glintstone Dragon Smarag)Rotten Breath (Dragon Heart x1)Ekzykes's Decay (Dragon Heart x2) (Decaying Ekzykes)Dragon Ice (Dragon Heart x1)Borealis's Mist (Dragon Heart x2) (Borealis the Freezing Fog)
Dragonclaw (Dragon Heart x1)Dragonmaw (Dragon Heart x1)Greyoll's Roar (Dragon Heart x3) (Elder Dragon Greyoll)

Swamp of Aeonia

This sub-region of Caelid is situated dead center in the region and accessible by horseback from almost all directions.

advertisement

There are three Sites of Grace that you can interact with here.

  1. The first is the Aeonia Swamp Shore Site of Grace, located on the western shore of the swamp.
  2. The second is the Heart of the Swamp Site of Grace, accessible after beating the field boss, Commander O'Neil.
  3. The last one is just north of the same boss fight, called Inner Aeonia.

Next to the Aeonia Swamp Shore Site of Grace, you'll see green tracks from the invisible Teardrop Scarab. Kill it to obtain the Ash of War - Poisonous Mist. Another Teardrop Scarab is just south of the Commander O'Neil boss fight that drops the Ash of War - Sacred Ring of Light when killed.

If you head north from the western shore of the swamp, you'll soon find the Street of Sage Ruins. Try to clear the area of enemies here while on horseback to avoid getting infected by the Scarlet Rot. You can loot the Traveler's Set from a corpse inside the ruined structures.

Head northwest and dispose of the Servants of Rot guarding the underground cellar's entryway and grab the Rock Sling sorcery spell from inside the chest. Lastly, loot the Meteorite Staff from the corpse hanging on a window near the staircase before heading to the northeasternmost corner of the swamp to grab the Poison Armament incantation from another Teardrop Scarab.

Sellia, Town of Sorcery

This once-great town known for its mastery of different sorcery arts is now just another victim to the ever-growing Scarlet Rot. There are tons of items to grab here, from Ashes of War to unique weapons and armor. The former town is also the only way to get to Dragonbarrow from Caelid.

Sellia is now home to spectral versions of Noble Sorcerers, Glintstone Sorcerers, and Twinsage Sorcerers. These guys have the same stats as their standard counterparts, except they turn invisible when you get too close. You can and should use Torrent and your choice of Spirit Summon to clear the area of enemies and loot without hassle.

While exploring the town, you'll notice these blue magic barriers blocking something behind them. To remove them, you'll need to light up the three braziers located atop the various buildings in the town.

  1. The first brazier is located on the very north side of the town. From the main entrance, head all the way north and up the large staircases where you can loot the Golden Seed. Drop unto the big branch on the right and climb up the ladder to light up the first brazier. Pick up the Staff of Loss from the corpse on the building adjacent to the first brazier. Below that corpse is a tiny treasure chest room containing the Spelldrake Talisman +1 inside.
  2. You can get to the second brazier by jumping on the branch by the staircase. Use Torrent and maneuver your way to the Marionette Soldier on the roof—the second brazier should be on your left. You can get there by jumping on the branch in front, jumping once more to the massive branch, and making your way up the ladder.
  3. The third brazier is the one closest to the town's main entrance. Go down the ladder of the second brazier and jump back to the massive branch. Get on the roof to the left and make one final jump to the ladder of the third brazier. There is also a Stonesword Key you can pick up from a nearby corpse hanging on a ledge connecting two buildings. The building adjacent to the third brazier also holds a Teardrop Scarab atop the massive branch near its roof; it drops the Ash of War - Double Slash.

Now that you've disabled all of the magic barriers go back to the main entrance so you can grab all the notable loot one by one. If you haven't done so, be sure to activate the Redmane Painting to the right of the town's central road.

advertisement

Keep going forward until you get to the intersection; there is a chest in a tiny room containing the Night Comet spell. Head northeast around the corner and pick up the Imbued Stonesword Key from the formerly blocked small treasure chest room. You can also loot a corpse holding the Cerulean Tear Scarab helmet on the roof of the same building.

When done looting all the items here, make your way west of the town and hit the Sellia Under-Stair Site of Grace if you haven't done so already. There is a boss fight just to the left of the Golden Seed Location.

Nox Swordstress & Nox Priest

There is not much to say about the Nox Swordstress & Nox Priest fight outside of the fact that it's a duo boss. Nox Swordstress uses a sword that can also be used as a flail, allowing her to attack from close to medium-range, while Nox Priest supports from afar using sorceries.

They are both extremely susceptible to guard breaks, as you can pretty much cancel their combos with any attack regardless of your weapon of choice. Using any Spirit Summoning for this fight makes it a straightforward boss fight. They drop the Nox Flowing Sword upon defeat. You can pick up the Lusat's Glintstone Staff further into the boss room from the chest inside the building.

Go back to where you pick up the Golden Seed and through the formerly barricaded back entry. Hit the Sellia Backstreets Site of Grace before heading towards Dragonbarrow.

Church of the Plague

Go up the road from the Sellia Backstreets Site of Grace until you find the church on the southern end. You can find Millicent on the floor in pain from a Scarlet Rot-inflicted illness. Millicent Questline is tied to Gowry in Gowry's Shack, right outside of Sellia, Town of Sorcery. There is no notable loot here outside of the Sacred Tear in front of the statue.

Sellia Upper Gateway and Swamp Lookout Tower

advertisement

You can access the upper portion of Sellia Gateway by moving south from the Church of the Plague. The gateway also serves as a bridge that connects you to the plateau where the Swamp Lookout Tower is located. A Bloodhound Knight is guarding the tower, so be careful. There is the Eternal Darkness sorcery inside as well.

Road to Redmane Castle

The Road to Redmane Castle begins with the Nomadic Merchant at the Caelid Highway South intersection. Going east would lead you to Sellia, Town of Sorcery, and Redmane Castle to the south.

In a pit by some rocks, you can find the Windy Crystal Tear just southeast of the Nomadic Merchant. Go back to the main road by heading south and pick up the Golden Seed from the miniature Erdtree. Keep going on the main road until you find the Impassable Bridge Site of Grace.

There are two notable items to grab near the Site of Grace, the Ash of War - Cragblade from a scarab in the sword monument, and the Arrow's Sting Talisman from a chest inside the tower next to the Site of Grace. For the latter, be wary of the few Redmane Soldiers inside the tower; they can knock you off the platform if you're not careful.

As you explore this region, you may come across several scarabs scampering away. Some of them will refill your flask of tears, but others can reward you with special items:

Ruined Campsite Scarab

Ruined Campsite Scarab

  • Reward: Whirl, O Flame Spell

advertisement

You can find this scarab not far into the Caelid region along the main road where a caravan has been ransacked by several large scavenger dogs and crows. The scarab is on the road just outside the camp - but be wary you don't get ambushed.

Forsaken Ruins Scarab

  • Reward: Somber Smithing Stone 4

On the western side of Caelid near the region's entrance is a large ruin patrolled by giant crows. Hidden to the south is a scarab, but it's craftily hiding on the other side of a large root suspended above the ground by a bit. Shoot it down and then defeat it.

Fort Gael Scarab

Fort Gael Scarab

  • Reward: Ash of War - Flame of the Redmanes

This scarab can't be seen normally, as it's invisible, but leaves a long trail as it circles around the path leading to the defended Fort Gael on the western edge of the region. Look for the trail north of the fort's guarded entrance.

advertisement

Caelid Highway North Scarab

Caelid Highway North Scarab

  • Reward: Ash of War - Lifesteal Fist

Traveling along the main road through Caelid path the smoldering wall, you can find this scarab out on the road not far from a site of grace, as well as a nomadic merchant.

Sellia Crystal Tunnel Scarab

Sellia Crystal Tunnel Scarab

  • Reward: Poison Armament Spell

On the north side of the Swamp of Aeonia in the center of Caelid is the entrance to the Sellia Crytal Tunnel some players get transported to early on. Just outside the mine at the edge of the scarlet rot swamp, you can spot a trail of light weaving in and out of poison muck. It's best to just wait by the shore and watch the trail stand in its way and attack as it gets close.

Swamp of Aeonia Scarab

Swamp of Aeonia Scarab

advertisement

  • Reward: Ash of War - Poisonous Mist

Another scarab hides among the poison swamps of Aeonia, located on the southwestern side. Annoyingly, it likes to teleport around, so you may need to sprint at it with torrent to kill it quickly or snipe from a distance.

Heart of Aeonia Scarab

Heart of Aeonia Scarab

  • Reward: Ash of War - Sacred Ring of Light

A third scarab also hides in the Swamp of Aeonia in central Caelid - this one lingers behind the heart of Aeonia where the world boss Commander O'Neil waits. Just to the east is a small passage behind the arena filled with large flying bugs, and the scarab (which will explode after being killed).

Sellia Town Scarab

Sellia Town Scarab

  • Reward: Ash of War - Double Slash

advertisement

Northeast of the Swamp of Aeonia is the magical town of Sellia, filled with cloaked magic users. Many roots weave up and around the town and its buildings, and you can climb onto the rooftops with Torrent to find a scarab hiding among the raised roots.

Caelid Catacombs Scarab

Caelid Catacombs Scarab

  • Reward: Somber Smithing Stone 4

To the south part of Caelid near Redmane Castle is the dungeon entrance along the southwestern coastline. Here you'll find a scarab along the road to the Caelid Catacombs entrance - but be wary of the giant crow waiting to ambush you.

Redmane Castle Swordgrave Scarab

Redmane Castle Swordgrave Scarab

  • Reward: Ash of War - Cragblade

In the very southeast corner of the map lies Redmane Castle, and just before the impassible great bridge is a low rise with a series of swords and a marker. A Scarab lurks among this sword grave.

advertisement

Redmane Castle Back Door Scarab

Redmane Castle Back Door Scarab

  • Reward: Ash of War - Flaming Strike

Technically located outside the legacy dungeon of Redmane Castle, this scarab can be found in a small cemetery full of vampire bats behind the castle, where you need to go to use a ladder to infiltrate the castle.
