Elder Eideard is a Maker that serves as the leader of the Forge Lands in Darksiders II. Death first encounters Eideard when he arrives in the Forge Lands near death, having fought the Crowfather and having the amulet imbedded in his chest.
The Elder informs the Horseman that the way to the Tree of Life is blocked by Corruption and that in order to reach the Tree, Death must seek out Alya to restore the forge and create the Maker's Key. Once created, Death seeks out the Warden, who is capable of opening the path to the Guardian. Unfortunately, the Guardian has become corrupt and Eideard must sacrifice himself to purify it.
