Windwood Spirit Offin

Overview

Windwood Spirit Offin is a Story NPC in Crimson Desert. Woodland spirits are tall guardians of nature, embodying woodland wisdom and strength. With massive, bark-covered bodies, branch-like limbs, and deep voices, these beings echo through the forest. They protect the flora and fauna with patient, timeless vigilance.

Windwood Spirit Offin is a living tree creature that roams the Shivering Gorge in the Hernand region. It carries the Pororin Relic on its head and plays a central role in The Unreachable Village faction quest. Unlike most large creatures in the game, Offin does not attack the player unless provoked.

The Unreachable Village Quest

Windwood Spirit Offin is the key encounter in The Unreachable Village, a faction quest for the Pororin Forest Guardians. The quest begins when the player stumbles into Pororin territory and is knocked unconscious by tranquilizer.

After waking, the player is tasked by Shai with recovering the Pororin Relic from the head of the Windwood Spirit Offin. The massive tree creature patrols the Shivering Gorge, and players must climb it to reach the relic.

Climbing Offin

The encounter with Offin is not a traditional boss fight. Instead, it is a climbing and platforming challenge. The player must scale the creature's bark-covered body to reach the relic perched on its head. Key points:

Offin does not attack the player when climbed, provided the player does not attack it with Force Palm or other weapons.
The roots at Offin's feet are imbued with energy that can render Kliff unconscious if approached carelessly.
Stamina management is critical during the climb. If the player runs out of stamina while climbing, they fall off and must try again.
The Pororin Relic is located directly on top of Offin's head. Simply grab it and descend.

The Pororin Relic

The Pororin Relic is the key item needed to gain access to Pororin Forest Village, a hidden settlement deep in the Pororin Forest. Recovering the relic completes this phase of the quest and opens the path forward.

Lore

Woodland spirits like Offin are ancient guardians that have protected the forests of Pywel for generations. They are peaceful by nature, attacking only when their territory is threatened. Offin is distinguished by its enormous size and the small structures (resembling a house) built on its head, suggesting a long relationship with the Pororin people who may have established a resting point on the creature's canopy.

The community on Steam has noted that Offin appears to carry a small house on its head, adding to the creature's unique visual design. This detail reinforces the symbiotic relationship between the woodland spirits and the Pororin Forest Guardians.

Tips

Do not attack Offin. It is not hostile and the encounter is designed as a climbing challenge, not a fight.
Upgrade your stamina before attempting the climb to avoid falling off halfway.
Avoid the roots at Offin's feet; the energy within them can knock you out.
If you fall, you can immediately try climbing again without penalty.
