Let Me Solo Her is the name of anElden Ringplayer’s character that has been elevated into a near mythic status by the game’s community due to his prolificacy in helping players defeat one of the game’s most difficult bosses. The boss in question is Malenia Blade of Miquella, who has the ability to regenerate some of her health for every blow landed on the player and because of thiseasily ranks as the hardest boss inElden Ringfor most players.
After a series of grateful messages were posted online to the anonymous jar-headed summon, theElden Ringplayer base quickly caught on and began venerating the legendary player. Traditional fan art, 3D models, and of course, copycats of the Let Me Solo Her character were quickly produced.

AfterLet Me Solo Her shared the specifics of hisElden Ringcharacter buildfor players that wanted to take on the noble cause of helping others defeat Malenia, it was inevitable that parody characters would also be made. Now a Reddit user named iskawhiskers has shared some fan art showcasing Let Me Solo Her along with a few of his variants. The drawing incorporates cropped images from screenshots to show that these variants are real and have been summoned in game.
On the left of the photo is the classic Let Me Solo Her character, who looks ready to fight. The next two variants taking up center frame are more interested in Malenia romantically than helping players defeat her, although one is clearly more reserved about it than the other. But, remarkably, it’s the two variants on the right who are perhaps furthest away from the original jar-headed summon’s motto to help anyone that needs it. Do It Yourself is a player who has been seen living up to their name by entering the boss room, sitting down, and refusing to engage in the fight.
Let Me Solo Her isfamous in theElden Ringcommunity for killing Malenia over 400 times, though he’s recently stated that he’s approaching his 1000th Malenia fight. The reason he has inspired so many fan artists is due to his simple and recognizable character design. The original Let Me Solo Her explained that the character’s nakedness is a tribute to a common ironic sight in FromSoftware games where the most powerful players are usually the ones wearing the least armor. But it’s the expressionless jar on his head that makes the character so easy to apply a mythic quality to, because players are free to project any emotion they wish onto the character. This is something easily seen in iskawhiskers fan art ensemble.
MostElden Ringfan artists draw Let Me Solo Her posing stoically, which makes him seem like an unstoppable force. But it is funny to imagine a different version of the character, who under the jar is really just in love with Malenia.
