We all know that Toro is a HUGE fromsoft fan, Black Souls II is basically a huge almagamation of all Soulsborne games on RPG Maker, be it the hunter's attire and gun break or the vegetable headed knights, the game is bursting with references.
So, while playing Elden Ring I ended up finding this item
If the name alone doesn't sound fishy enough to you, it gets even more curious when you consider that this weapon is a sacrificial blade, restoring your hp upon killing an enemy, and on Black Souls we do have the whole Snake God's shenanigans, whoose blood is a healing item and his sole devout is found amidst tons of skeletons on a bloody sacrificial chamber, said Snake God even appears on the altar there latter.
So, could Toro have worked on Elden Ring? He already proved to be quite the skilled mind with his own games, I wouldn't doubt that he'd eventually move on to help bigger projects, or maybe the fromsoft team just decided to make a little nod to him as thanks for all his homages.
Heavens, maybe he has been working with them for all this time? The whole church-femboy thing has been present on all the other souls games too, despite being something so specific (Gwyndolin on DS1, the sacred gender conversion coffin on DS2 and the Reversal Ring on DS3. I won't even get started on Sekiro since I'm no child predator.)
So what do you all think about this?
