Ensha of the Royal Remains or Ensha is an NPC in Elden Ring. He will refuse to speak to the player, but instead stare at them. He is the servant of Gideon Ofnir.

 

Ensha of the Royal Remains Location in Elden Ring

Ensha of the Royal Remains can be found at Roundtable Hold, directly to the right of the entrance of Gideon Ofnir's room.

 

Ensha of the Royal Remains Questline: How to complete Ensha's Quest

Upon first interaction, players obtain the What Do You Want? Gesture.

After obtaining either half of the Haligtree Secret Medallion (Right or Left), Ensha becomes an NPC Invader and ambushes the player the next time that they teleport to the Roundtable Hold. Defeating them rewards the Clinging Bone and the Royal Remains Set, which must be obtained by returning to where Ensha was originally standing, outside of Gideon Ofnir's room.

A new dialogue will unlock with Gideon, where he apologizes for Ensha's behavior "as his master"

 

Dialogue in Elden Ring: Ensha of the Royal Remains

Ensha of the Royal Remains does not speak. This character maintains an attentive attitude while leaning against the wall.

 

Elden Ring Ensha of the Royal Remains Notes & Trivia

"Oh, my apologies for that nasty business. Ensha got rather ahead of himself, it seems. As his master, I'd like to express my regret. But now, Ensha is slain and gone. Finished, forever more."

  • Possibly referred to as "The all-hearing" by the Finger Reader Crone at Raya Lucaria Academy bridge.
    • Ensha was likely ordered to slaughter those in the village, for the purpose of finding the Haligtree Medallion’s half. However, he was unsuccessful as it was kept by a disguised Albus. The Tarnished is invaded after obtaining it, presumably because Ensha wishes to steal the medallion
  •  If neither Haligtree Secret Medallion is picked up before killing the Fire Giant, Ensha vanishes from the Roundtable Hold and doesn't invade the player there.

      slight mistake here, you can kill fire giant and he will still invade you just cant rest at site of grace at forge and talk with melania

      • Anonymous

        Totally forgot what triggers his invasion. On a completely mundane trip back to the Hold to upgrade, I get invaded, my Godrick rune was disabled so now I'm fat rolling and totally unprepared since I had the wrong spells equipped after doing a bit of testing. What saved me was jumping on and off the table and throwing spells in his face. He simply couldn't jump up in time and never used his AoW. The table is the real MVP.

          He actually does still attack you if you have defeated the fire giant and haven't yet gotten a medallion piece, it's probably only after you go to farum azula

              its been about 2 years and there was a trivia saying: "This character is commonly known by the community as Edgelord." so who tf deleted it? nobody knows who tf is ensha? except lore people, most of the players just play the dam game and know this character as edge lord because of both immense amount of messages in front of him and the looks! thank you!

                look at the silly little grunt and his silly attempt to kill us. almost makes you wanna go easy on him. almost.

                    He can still invade you if you defeat the fire giant and then retrieve both halves of the medallion without visiting the roundtable hold in between.

                      The way Gideon talks about him is so suspicious it's funny. "Sorry that Ensha attacked you, but on the bright side, you killed him and he's absolutely never coming back so it's all water under the bridge. Super dead and gone for good. Died right in his famous armour set which has the ability to keep you from dying when you're very close to death. He will be remembered fondly for his signature ability of looking exactly like a dead guy without actually being a dead guy. A tragedy for us all." (For the record I don't really think Ensha is still secretly alive, it's just really funny to me the way Gideon talks about him.)

                        I wonder if Gideon was planning on trying to kill the Tarnished from the get go, shared his thoughts with Ensha, and that's why Gideon says Ensha got "ahead of himself" attempting to kill the Tarnished. This also may explain why he was able to commit violence in the hold, given that Gideon is Roundtable's de facto leader and Ensha may have assumed it was ok if Gideon was planning it. If there's a magical ward preventing people from attacking, I guess that wouldn't make sense, but yeah idk.

                            "If neither Haligtree Secret Medallion is picked up before killing the Fire Giant, Ensha vanishes from the Roundtable Hold and doesn't invade the player there."

                            First playthrough, had no idea about this. Killed the fire giant, then got the medallion, went back to the hold and still got invaded. So he'll still invade you if you found a medallion as long as you haven't been back to the hold after you killed the giant. Or possibly it's because I killed the giant but didn't want to burn the tree yet.

                            Only reason I even went back to the hold was because I got a bell bearing from a bell bearing hunter. Getting this invasion immediately after that one was something.

                              Interesting that he has a weapon which scales off of Arcane, and does magic damage. Only other weapons like this are those of Eochaid. And the gravity spells is another weird one, seeing as Elemer can control his sword from a far...

                                In the notes and trivia section it says that the medallion was kept by a disguised Albus. Albus is a name not a creature. It should say: kept by a disguised albinauric named Albus.

                                  Gotta give it to him, he really tried to make an int/arc build work. It didn't, but I respect the attempt.

                                    This guy scared the ever-loving piss out of me, not least because I'd just returned to the Roundtable Hold with enough runes for a level-up (more, in fact, having just used Golden Runes to boost me up to have enough to buy a few things as well), so if he'd killed me I could have lost more than 30k runes. Fortunately I was able to pound him into paste surprisingly easily. For an NPC invader, he doesn't handle +16 greataxes very well.

                                      im curious if you can avoid getting certain graces and go get the medallion half before melina takes you to roundtable. i wonder what might occur then?

                                        How does he invade roundtable hold? Violence cannot occur in the hold to the point that one of the most violent NPCs states he doesn't kill you because he can't.

                                          If obtaining the half of medallion from the pot guy, you have to talk to him until he dies or the invasion wont happen.

                                              I'm still pretty early in the game, but man this guy's invasion is the most anticlimactic invasion so far. He looks all mysterious like an assassin and the dark Roundtable hold area is straight out of a horror movie.

                                              But then this guys keeps spamming that easily evadable lifesteal and he gets whacked in just a few hits.

                                              DISAPPOINTED!

                                                Is it just me or does his armor look pretty close to that of the Royal Knight armor? Kinda makes me wonder about his storyline. Was he a royal knight of Carian? How did he get the title of "Lord of the lost and desperate"? The lost and desperate title also makes me wonder if he created the roundtable hold? Did it say who made it?

                                                      Ensha is a husk of a dead demigod whose headless body lies in the mausoleum outside Castle Sol. The real Ensha is going to be a boss in the DLC.

                                                          I’m truly surprised I don’t see someone doing a lore dive as to why an ashen one’s body was used to make an armour, whether the player character or another from the souls side of things. I see it as more of a nod to the history of what was, but it’d be fun if there was the element of the age of flame looking to rekindle its lost power.

"Of the royal Remains" my a s s theres nothing royal remaining about it. And is the regen effect even supposed to be helpful? You regenerate marginal amounts of hp at Like 1/5 of your entire bar, right? That bullcrab If you ask me. The Armor itself isnt worth using either and it looks laughable edgy. Shouldve just deleted that character, not even a real questline, doesnt Bring anything new or good to the table...a big ducking disappointment.

Most likely he ordered Ensha to spy on us, then kill us and bring him the medallion.

Just dismissed as trash by his master, gideon the all knowing...just a massive disappointment.

                                                                                              just erase that. Some king he turned out to be. He does do gideons dirty work, but thats no soulless king. Where is his army and what not? His armor is a fashion only joke. 2 regen per second that only triggers below 18% life? You dont even leave one shot range

                                                                                                Is there possible way to not kill him. i am doing a pacifist run and i need latenna as a spirit summon but i won't be able to upgrade her if ensha would invade in the roundtable. is there like a cheese or a way to not directly damage him?

Would have been more interesting if there was something akin to the assassin guy in fire link from dark souls 3. Forget his name but I think he gives you invasion stuff. Think he eventually becomes hostile, not sure. But yeah just felt this guy might have had stuff cut idk.

Teleported to the round table and all the talismans/my great rune deactivated when he invaded. Fat roll + no damage. Needless to say, the next time I came back I brought down the wrath of god on this piece of s***

Anyone else found they were allowed to keep their runes?
