Dragon’s Dogma 2has been making headlines with some of the amazing (and sometimes frightening) custom Arisens that players have made. Players have created some amazing custom characters, but also some well-known characters. Chances are, if you can think of a figure in pop culture, someone has made them.
From Pikachu toLae’zel from Baldur’s Gate, some players are making their Arisens look like the characters they love the most. Other players are creating brand-new characters that look stunning. Here are some of the best custom characters so far.

Yomi_00 - Reddit
Evelyn is one of themost well-known customized TavsfromBaldur’s Gate 3. The character blew up quickly on TikTok and encouraged hundreds of people to purchase the game based solely on the character creator.
What makes this character so unique is that it truly did encourage so many fans to try Baldur’s Gate 3, and it is so cool to see the character come back in another game. We might see an increase in sales of Dragon’s Dogma 2 when people realize the character creator is even better than Baldur’s Gate 3’s.

9Daenerys - Game Of Thrones
MENDICɅNT - YouTube
Daenerys Targaryen is one of the most popular characters from George R.R. Martain’s massively successful book series,Game of Thrones. She is one of the last surviving members of her family and is one of the show’s leading characters.
This design is so amazing because it is spot on when it comes to what Daenerys looks like in the TV show. The resemblance to the character is one of the most impressive parts of this customized Arisen.

8Unnamed Prince - Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time

The video game Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is a reboot of thePrince of Persia series. It was first released in 2003 for the GBA, PS2, PC, and Xbox. The game follows an unnamed prince, who is based on this character.
What makes this character impressive is that, even though The Sands of Time was released with 2003-era graphics, the character looks identical to the prince. In fact, it looks like it could be the character design for a modern reboot (which is supposed to be in development). This character certainly comes with an air of nostalgia for those who loved the Prince of Persia series.

Any (though Thief may work well)
Sargon (fromThe Lost Crown)
7Lara Croft - Tomb Raider
Spider1132 - Reddit
Lara Croft is the main character of theTomb Raider franchiseand is probably the very first character you think of when you think of iconic female characters. With that in mind, it is no wonder that the character was created to be an Arisen.
The creator of this character did an excellent job at creating a character that looks identical to the original PS1 version of Lara Croft. This Arisen looks like she could have easily walked off the cover of the game.

Modern Lara Croft
6Padmé Amidala - Star Wars

Padmé Amidala is an extremely important part of the Star Wars universe. She has one of the most important roles in the series (being Luke and Leia’s mother and Anakin’s love interest). Considering she is one of the most popular female characters, it isn’t shocking to see her on this list.
Dragon’s Dogma 2: All Portcrystal Locations
Portcrystals allow you to travel around in DD2. Here are all the Portcrystals in the game and how to unlock them.
While Dragon’s Dogma’s world is a far cry from the advanced civilizations that roam the universe in Star Wars, this version of Padmé certainly looks like she could have walked out of the movie series.
Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, or Anakin Skywalker
5Shadowheart - Baldur’s Gate 3
Wakiratoshi - Reddit
Baldur’s Gate 3 has won a ton of awards for being one of the best RPGs that was released in 2023. Shadowheart is probably one of the most popular out of all the companions you’re able to have, which makes her inclusion expected.
This is a great character due to the fact that Baldur’s Gate 3 was such a massive game, and fans being able to bring their favorite character to Dragon’s Dogma is truly something special.
Lae’zel, Astarion, Gale, Wyll, or Karlach
4Legolas - Lord Of The Rings
Zyaz King - YouTube
Legolas is one of the most well-known archers in popular culture. He played a vital role in ensuring that the fellowship was able to make it all around Middle-Earth and complete their quest.
This is such an amazing character because there is no better character to create if you want to have an Archer. Legolas is such an iconic archer, and taking him to theSacred Arborwould be a great place for him.
3Link & Zelda - The Legend Of Zelda
Stacycmc - Reddit
Zelda and Link are two of the most popular characters in Nintendo games. They are the two main characters ofThe Legend of Zelda franchise, and are well-known by gamers around the world.
Out of the two, Zelda is definitely the better one. The reason for that is that Zelda isn’t playable in her franchise, so it would be so much fun to be able to take control of the character for once.
Female or Male (depends on which one you do)
If Link is your Arisen, Zelda could be the Pawn or vice versa.
2Kratos - God Of War
DraftPower - Reddit
Kratos is the main character of theGod of War franchise. From Greek Mythology to Norse Mythology, Kratos has traveled all over the world (and mythical realms) as a popular character.
This is probably one of the best recreations of Kratos in any game that I have ever seen. The creation is so well done, and the tattoos look absolutely amazing. This creation is so impressive just because it truly looks identical to the famous character.
1Geralt - The Witcher 3
Rawg_ - Reddit
The Witcher franchiseis an extremely popular RPG franchise and Geralt of Rivera is a character that people have absolutely fallen in love with. This version of Geralt is from the video game instead of the TV show.
What makes this character so amazing is that it is a lot like Kratos. It is definitely the best Geralt that I have seen, and a lot of people are always trying to recreate the titular Witcher, which makes it so great. Even the scars on his body look identical to the ones that Geralt sports.
Ciri, Yennefer, and Triss
