The Cursemark of Death is an item that you’ll be able to find in your journey through the vast open world of Elden Ring. However, what you may not know is what it’s used for. It’s an item that can trigger a completely different ending than the one that you are anticipating, and can change the course of history in the world around you.

To get your hands on the Cursemark of Death, you’ll need to scale the Divine Tower of Liurnia. At the top of the tower, you’ll find a body with an item that you can obtain, that item being it Cursemark of Death. Once you get this item, holding onto it is all you’ll need to do until much later in the game.

*Spoiler Warnings*

You will need the Cursemark of Death to access the area that houses the Lichdragon Fortissax, which is an optional boss but is also required to accomplish one of the multiple endings of the game. The Age of Fracture is the main ending of the game, with The Age of Duskborn ending only being able to be accomplished with this specific item, as you need it to fight the Lichdragon. You must also follow the path of the Two Fingers, as well as using the Mending Rune of the Death-Prince.

*Spoiler End*

The Cursemark of Death is a very important item for those that are looking to alter their course of history in the lands of Elden Ring. As this is an item that is easy to miss, making sure that you’re checking every nook and cranny through the game is a great idea, as you may not become the Elden Lord you would like to be without certain items.

Elden Ring is out now for the PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X/S, and PC.
