How to Get a Starter Rootling
If you are new to rootlings and you do not yet have your own character, this section is for you. New players can design their first rootling after completing one coronation trial through visual, written, or some other form of art. You may connect with another player to have their existing rootling be the parent, or you may select an Elden Root to perform the coronation. When you are ready to design, hop over to the design guide to start building up your first character. After completing your design you may submit it with your prompt to the coronation submissions journal. This should be done by filling out the form and posting it as a comment.
After your rootling has been approved (congratulations!) and added to the bestiary, you can begin playing with it! Any art you make will be able to score points, and they can be tracked using a pre-made spreadsheet. You can begin your rootling's journey on your own, or you can join the Discord to connect with the community.
