For Soulsborne fans, Elden Ring is nothing strange as the game series is known to provide various challenges at multiple levels. What really makes this RPG game what it is, however, are the diverse range of characters that help shape its narrative.

Among all the characters that are present in Elden Ring, Melina plays a massive role by guiding the players through the story as a maiden. A Tarnished is nothing without a maiden, and Melina is just another character without a fitting voice actress.
