The godskins are described as having incorporated "inhuman features" into themselves. They have serpentine eyes, the apostles have serpent-like midsections, and the nobles have serpent tails. In elden ring serpents are the symbol of blasphemy against the greater will so it makes sense that the dudes who want to kill the gods would have them as part of their design.

The noble can inflate the skin (or dead skin) on his body similar to some specific real life snakes but in a supercharged fashion like when he rolls or jumps up into the air for a slam by inflating himself. Not to mention he has a snake tail. Very cool design. I never thought about them this way before but I’m glad I found out, adds more lore to godskins

I wonder if miyazaki was inspired by the Aztec practice of wearing flayed skins for this. They would wear a whole piece of skin like a one piece onesy that also covered their face with the hands of the skin dangling down like grotesque winter mittens. Google Xipe Totec who is a god that represents this. In this context they would wear the skin of flayed sacrifices who represented sacred figures or were considered sacred so their skin was symbolically god skin and so was their flesh which could be ritually eaten by a select few.

It’s kind of insane to think how long and wide the Golden Lineage was; each of the godskins wear robes of actual demigod skin of the Golden Linage collected during the god hunt, I mean, each of the robes worn by the nobles are made of the skin of 7 gods PER SET, hence why there is 7 faces in the noble’s chest piece.

I don't believe Melina is the gloam eyed queen directly. More rather a reincarnation. If we believe that Melina is somehow related to miquella and Melania she would logically be cursed with being a phantom of sort... A phantom of the gloam eyed queen So if there Melina is a lost twin why do we not hear of this? Shame. Imagine if people found out the gloam eyed queen was reborn somehow

I once postulated that the Gloam-Eyed queen and her apostles didn't actively hunt the gods in some plot, not at first. The killing of gods was normal and ritualistic - consider the walking mausoleums. Their souls/power hewn back into the tree. The fact that they have golden eyes proves they were and are still to some degree, functioning under the rule of Order. I personally think they were a pinnacle of Albinauric development and for a time became a caste of albinaurics above even most humans, before their race was demonized, enslaved, hunted. I also like thinking that Gideon ran around looking for scraps of godskin left behind, hence why he's outfitted with discarded ears lol

It's interesting their eyes are golden. It seems that despite all of that they still have the Grace. Or maybe they took it from people they killed. Although I assume they have it because their power is almost gone, so there is nothing to overwrite the "default" Erdtree blessing. BTW, does anyone know what's up with the whole talk about the "grace in the eyes" that the Tarnished lack (and many NPCs notice instantly)? Many enemies have golden eyes, but what about regular people? As far as I've seen soldiers have empty white eyes, the Nox have grey eyes and Rennala has blue eyes. I have no clue about non-Tarnished NPCs (except for Millicent, her eyes are indeed golden, but what about Kenneth or the Castle Morne knight-guy?). If normal people in the Lands Between don't have golden/glowing/whatever eyes than why are we instantly recognized as Tarnished?

I was interested in this as well, because godfrey lost his golden eyes as he fulfilled his purpose to the erdtree, this might mean that the nobles are actually serving the erdtree a purpose. This makes sense as the gloam eyes queen you said is indeed empyrean.

Well obviously all tarnished lost their grace with Godfrey and left , others died, because before Godfrey people didn't have the Erdtree blessing wich don't let die, that's why again like other souls games people in the lands between are zombies, the people who born during the Erdtree era got that blessing and just have eternal life. While the people that came before became tarnished along Godfrey. But we know before the Erdtree there was the crucible and The God Skins and their queen could be the rulers before Godfrey and Marika and maybe the Dragon Lord before them as you can read in his Talisman he was also Elden Lord even before the Erdtree times.
