One of the most innovative mechanics that are part of Elden Ring is the ability to summon spirits in the battle. These creatures fight enemies for Elden Ring Runes you and can be effective during boss fights especially. They are known as "Ashes" in game, and they take on the forms of jellyfish, wolves, and other beings. When you summon spirits, they drain your FPS, which is in essence your mana. Therefore, make sure you have enough before you choose one.
The Lone Wolf Ashes is one of the most popular in the game and it's likely to be the first one you find. It's given an NPC by the goddess who runs The Church of Elleh.
