The Nomadic Merchants in Elden Ring can be seen as an allegory for the historical treatment of Jews: a wandering, persecuted group, falsely blamed for spreading madness and evil. Much like Jews in medieval Europe they are accused of plagues, heresy, and implied financial manipulation and most importantly, the spread of the heresy of the frenzied flame.
Because of that these merchants were scapegoated and ultimately hunted by a fearful society.

In real history, Jews were often forced into specific trades (like money lending) due to exclusion from land ownership and guilds. Over time, those roles became stereotypes used to justify further persecution. In Elden Ring, some merchants embrace the Frenzied Flame, a destructive force tied to madness and chaos. This echoes how persecuted groups sometimes turn to the very things they were accused of, not out of malice, but out of despair, survival, or revenge.

The game doesnโ€™t portray them as evil or cunning, it portrays them as tragic. Their eerie music, their isolation, and their final descent into madness reflect what happens when a society pushes a people so far they break. Beneath Leyndell, in the sewers you find the corpses of tons of them an entire underground city full of them all undead or dead, chanting, and cradling madness. It's heavily implied that they were imprisoned there by the Golden Order. Why? Because they were blamed for the spread of Frenzied Flame madness, even though they were not the ones responsible for it. Still they were accused and condemned to this horrible fate underground, where many of them ultimately succumbed to the flame as a last resort of desperation.

Did you ever sit down and think, maybe, just maybe, the Jews became evil because of us? That in our discrimination in the Middle Ages, we created our own worst enemy? Literally bred them to become more evil and cunning and hating?

I'm just gonna leave it like that.

Jews deserve our hate, I just think this is how it happened. We made a mess and it all went wrong.

Wait till you find out AoT is actually about the creation of Israel, specifically the dichotomy between assimilation Herzl (Zeke) and Zionist Herzl (Eren), eldians as ghetto Jews wearing actual stars of David, titans as the coveted Jewish WW2 era scientific talent and the rumbling as an allegory for nuclear weapons and the Sampson option

Since you're here I want to give you my upmost and most sincere apology to what my ancestors did to you and your people.

I know you have every right to plot and plan our destruction, and I won't hold it against you. I would do the same in your shoes. What I personally hope for is unity amongst our people and the whole world, but this is a fever dream.
