How do they know we're Cerim?

[Kotarou]

Just curious about it. People in Sacrament might know we're Cerim because we were literally asked to come there, but some human enemies outside of it call us Cerim during the fight, so is there something that distinguishes Cerim from normal people? Because my character looks like just any other human and i can't really find anything special. I did read dialogues and such, but honestly might have just skipped something really obvious.

Honestly it does feel like we've took a position not ours to blend in? But the endgame content does show that yes, we're in fact Cerim. But maybe not thee Cerim? Like some trainee? Especially with the foreshadowed cutscene.

Also we are using meat from worm controlled dead human body to make our meals,so we are cannibals? :D

[Kotarou]

Our character sees checkpoints (forgot how they're called) that aren't visible to normal human, we could interact with the big flower in Iona Cavern and walk on invisible platform, so i'm pretty sure we are Cerim, was just wondering if there's something about our appearance that gives it away to common folk.

Considering how strong Cerim is (killed 2 big abominations and many other smaller ones solo), it is really weird that we are a "failed race" according to Madrigal Seline :D

Its the way we smell

In the tutorial people recognized you by wearing the official club armor which makes kinda sense. Maybe there is somewhere a tattoo or marking which makes it obvious or they can feel it maybe?

I am far more surprised that Cerim are well known after all these years where there was no need for them.
Wouldn't normally after such a long time the Cerium become more of a legend than something that is widely known?
It also seems that the knowledge about them is restricted to special parts of the royal library, so there doesn't seem to be a lot media circulating about them and the ruins also contain no stories and such.

This seems to be a small plot hole

For me it feels like a bedtime story becoming true. People knows cerims are real as there are lots of ruins and stories/documented history about them.
Forces on that island is limited to the inquisition, guards of Sacrament, rebels and monsters. So I guess it's fairly easy to figure out that you are not from around here. Plus you did destroyed the rebel's big plan of attacking the city through sewers. They should at least heard about you.

Glad to see people excited about the story, can't wait to read more about the history of cerim.

Its in the eyes man, its in the eyes.

Actually I don't even know what a cerim is tbh :)

[TheIronChariot]

Oh yeah, this all seems fair enough. Just wondering if devs will implement something special about Cerim, like tatoo that Despell mentioned or just aura people can feel.
I really like the concept of silent, strong type hero, been a fan of it since Dark Souls games. And i know that this is just a way to easier implement main character into the game and a form of self-insert, know that AT BEST our character is only implied to talk and have some sort of personality, but i don't know, just really like this type of character. In my head i'm already imagining that our Cerim is actually alive for thousand years, since the very first plague, which would explain our mental fortitude (nothing seems to bring us down, we always get up, always fight, deaths don't bring our morale down etc), ability to wield any weapon we find, and such. Probably not going to be a thing with further lore updates, but really looking forward to role of Cerim in game universe and more information about our race in general.

[Kondaru]

That's easy: they know what we want to say, even though the protagonist is silent. Telepathy is probably limited to Cerim.

Now, the question is, how they know someone is Dasha?

I remember in one of the cutscenes, and some random guy I walked passed, said something like, "Oh you have the marks of the Cerim"

So i assume it's like a brand of some kind? maybe a birthmark, or tattoos or something.

Oh man, i completely missed it. Might have to replay the whole game on new realm and character, nothing else to do in EA anyway lol
