However, the most notable change is the addition of an entirely new NPC: Jar-Bairn. At 12 a.m. last night, I was absolutely perplexed by this sudden update. And at that moment, I knew I could not rest until I found the character. Thankfully, it didn’t take long, as the NPC’s name offers a pretty major hint towards their location.

How to find Jar-Bairn in Elden Ring
- Jar-Bairn can be found close to the Jarburg Grace Point. If you don’t have this Grace Point unlocked, continue to the next step.
- Teleport to the Artist’s Shack Grace Point, which is just slightly north-west of Carian Study Hall.
- Head to this exact point on the map.
- You should see a series of tombstones protruding from the mountainside. You’ll need to jump down along each one.
- The last tombstone should place you just slightly above the top of a shack. Jump onto the shack.
- From here, a Grace Point should be visible. Go ahead and grab it.
- Jar-Bairn will be on this exact point on the map, dangling their little legs off the side of some stairs.
- Further along the questline, you might also see Jar-Bairn in this spot. You should now have access to Jar-Bairn and can begin their story. This also involves the questline of another familiar character, but I’ll let you discover that on your own.
