Do other planets with intellegent life and their own auric dragons exits in the cal verse?

dusty saffron
#

thats a question for vertrasyl

abstract marten
#

Has the devourer of gods actually devoured any gods?

#

Or is it an embellishment like the eater of worlds

wheat walrus
#

former

#

he devoured gods

eager bluff
#

was yharims #1 rated god disposal service

Which gods

wheat walrus

wait no

wheat walrus

i love how yharim is like “he had a serpent’s tongue” and then DoG is just a pompous asshole

plucky spruce

abstract marten
#

Are there no examples?

plucky spruce
#

don't think so

abstract marten
#

Is there like a list of all the gods yharim's crusade slew?

plucky spruce
#

no

#

all of the gods that are not providence or slime god, Yharim's crusade killed them

#

or at least the majority

brazen moth
#

or xeroc

plucky spruce
#

true but xeroc is cringe

brazen moth
#

why do you say that?

plucky spruce
#

because other than the fact that he caused a war on accident, he does uhh, shit nothing

#

he put the terminus in the abyss too... don't ask me how

abstract marten
#

What even is the terminus?

#

In lore

plucky spruce
#

probly something very powerful

#

but it's kinda not that powerful nowdays

spring helm
# plucky spruce true but xeroc is cringe

Zeratros: "Xeroc, my monk. I need time to recover after fighting off that Calamity that attacked us. Provide me with sustenance and care, as I have done for you and your ancestors since time immemorial"
Xeroc: "Yummy yummy in my tummy."

brazen moth
spring helm
#

that's true

#

fun headcanon though

brazen moth
#

it’s assumed, but we can’t be 100% sure

plucky spruce
#

he was a monk for the dragons and was close enough to Zeratros that he was allowed to get close to him while he was dying

brazen moth
#

yes, but one of the devs literally said we can’t be sure that they were one of zeratros’s monks

viral dagger
plucky spruce
#

the only other relation to any other dragon that we know is that he was friends with yharon

viral dagger
#

like technically arent entirely sure, but come on

spring helm
#

actually, you know what?
It would be even funnier if xeroc was really did just serve some other random dragon.
So all the dragons were just on the Aerie lying down near each other to rest after the titanic battle with Fovos.
And then Xeroc, monk of the dragon of whatever, just walked up to the King while everyone watched, too tired/injured to move.
And the Xeroc just EATS ZERATROS in front of everyone.

plucky spruce
brazen moth
#

one of the devs was talking about this and made sure to point out that we can’t assume that

plucky spruce
#

he also had the knowledge that no other had (according to everyone else)

viral dagger
#

in fact we can even assume Xeroc was one of the highest monks at that point, think about it, zeratros was dying and xeroc was allowed access to him for long anough to perferm the ritual to consume his auric soul, so much access in fact that xeroc was likely at the Dragon Aerie at the time, which is why the Rock item was, according to Xeroc, a piece of the Aerie he carved

brazen moth
#

you’re literally jumping to conclusions

viral dagger
#

how

brazen moth
#

nowhere is it stated that xeroc was one of the highest monks

viral dagger
#

nobody can access the Dragon Aerie without permission, something that Xeroc needed to get the chunk of rock in the first place

plucky spruce
#

your argument is "a dev said that maybe he wasn't serving Zeratros", although devs have different views on the lore

brazen moth
viral dagger
#

nobody in service of the dragons would allow xeroc access no matter how powerful he was, unless he was already in the dragon aerie shlorp glorping zeratros' auric soul

#

how could he have gotten Rock without it unless he was allowed into the aerie immediately before zeratros death

plucky spruce
viral dagger
#

remember the aerie is possibly the most secretive and secure places in calamity lore

brazen moth
#

that’s a jump in conclusions with no evidence to support it

#

all we know is this

viral dagger
brazen moth
#

he was allowed in the aerie and he absorbed zeratros’s soul

viral dagger
#

maybe not the highest, but certainly one of the highest

plucky spruce
# spring helm what is blud talking about

it was from when the show was still good, where they said that y'know, to kill pink diamond, a very high gem in the hierarchy, no simple ass person would be able to pass through the guards, only someone that was close to her

brazen moth
#

i’m going off what is stated in game, in the lore doc, and by developers. you are jumping to conclusions

plucky spruce
viral dagger
plucky spruce

that was also the most important of the masters

Cant wait for the part when Terrarian came back from defeating noxus and then xeroc appear in a flash of light and say "Congratulations, Terrarian, you have defeated noxus and saved Terraria, from now on, you'll be called Terraria Calamity Mod, here, take my blessing" and then Terrarian starts crying of emotion as they hug each other

plucky spruce
wheat walrus
#

Zeratros was confirmed to have auric equipment in the concept art, meaning they're most likely attuned
they also have the primordial light sigil behind them even prior to ascension so yeah

#

take that as you will

plucky spruce
brazen moth
wheat walrus
#

a calamity has been caused

brazen moth
#

the way i interpreted this statement was “it’s not 100% set in stone”

plucky spruce
#

ah yes, the classic "it's official but not real"

wheat walrus
#

anyways I'd still say that we're gonna take the concept art as real since that's the only official source we have on Xeroc's looks

plucky spruce
#

unless you'e pbg patreon

wheat walrus
#

predicted my moves

viral dagger
#

FallWithinMyCalculations clueless =

brazen moth
#

yes i agree, but all i’m saying is that we cannot assume that xeroc was a high monk of zeratros and could have been a lower monk of a different dragon

spring helm
wheat walrus
brazen moth
#

aetryx was saying we should assume that xeroc was a high monk of zeratros

viral dagger
plucky spruce
#

also

wheat walrus
#

we know Xeroc is attuned to a dragon due to auric use in the concept art + the primordial light sigil halo in the same concept art, so I would assume that they are more likely to be related to Zeratros than most other dragons besides maybe Yharon, who Xeroc themselves described as an old friend in the BR Dialogue

plucky spruce
#

xeroc was trustable enough, that no one went with him

novel tulip
brazen moth
wheat walrus
#

it's just a theory

#

a game mod theory

viral dagger
plucky spruce
#

or y'know, he was attuned

brazen moth
#

stop assuming

plucky spruce
#

apparently attuned people can just enter the aerie

viral dagger
brazen moth
#

theorize, don’t assume

spring helm
#

I love theorizing

Why is calamitas so much stronger than brimstone elemental when (speculation from Draedon) she got her powers from brimmy

wheat walrus

womp womp

sleek halo
#

you didn’t etch it into your memory for all of time?

plucky spruce
#

all i remember is that woooooow woooow EXO YHARIM you are a fool to claim victory herobrine!!!!

sleek halo
#

kind of

#

cringe

viral dagger
spring helm
wheat walrus
viral dagger
sleek halo
#

the biggest thing to me is that her power is

#

seemingly transferable

spring helm
viral dagger
sleek halo
#

we don’t know

#

but she gave her clone

brazen moth
sleek halo
#

the brimstone magic

spring helm
#

Calclone was not born with any magic, despite having the same dna as calamitas

#

Which implies that her power is not natural

viral dagger
#

ohhh thats cool, i assumed she just broke it out and it happened to get them soon after through some draedon shenanigans

sleek halo
#

nah

viral dagger
plucky spruce
sleek halo
#

well he doesn’t truly know

#

Draedon is speculating off his own research

viral dagger
#

given that she can enchant things, i think its fair that she can transfer it, and draedon was right

sleek halo
#

to know he’d have to make scal tell him

#

which she uh

#

likely would not do

spring helm
#

Honestly at this point we could just ask calamitas herself, she’s living in our town

sleek halo
#

after the whole clone shit

brazen moth
spring helm
#

“Caly, where does your power come from?”
“Idk.”

sleek halo
#

probably not too fond of draedon

plucky spruce
spring helm
sleek halo
#

(she would probably destroy any recon that comes near her)

sleek halo
plucky spruce
viral dagger
# plucky spruce

wait yeah how DID draedon make yharims armor stronger when it was already auric?

sleek halo
#

Exo technology

viral dagger
spring helm
#

Well he put exo tech in it

brazen moth
sleek halo
#

probably just

plucky spruce
sleek halo
#

added modifications

#

to enhance stiff

#

or add like shit like flight

viral dagger
#

WaffleTime reference moment ig

spring helm
#

So the armour now likely responds quicker and better to Yharim’s movements and attacks

plucky spruce
#

i mean, exo prisms can fuse with other materials

sleek halo
#

realistically the armor is still entirely encased

plucky spruce
#

literally what we do with miracle matter

sleek halo
#

in auric

#

there wouldn’t really be much exo material showing

viral dagger
sleek halo
#

Well yeah

spring helm
#

Since exo tech allows one to control technology like it was part of your nervous system or something

sleek halo
#

His was already better

#

and then got upgraded

spring helm
#

Miracle armour when?

sleek halo
#

Also the fact

#

this was less than a year ago

#

still makes me wonder

viral dagger
#

i want better auric in a future update, the colors are cool and i want an endgame all class armor

sleek halo
#

how much stronger could he have gotten

brazen moth
#

it’s interesting to think that after yharim is dead there won’t be any lore items after. unless xeroc gives them or something

sleek halo
#

well

spring helm
#

Yharim really heard of Draedon inventing a new technology and immediately came running to get an upgrade

sleek halo
#

iirc

spring helm
#

After firing him too

sleek halo
#

they eventually wont be

#

the main form of lore

viral dagger
#

Jank bro its ok to type for a while and not have to keep doing small messages were not gonna forget you

spring helm
#

Man’s fake af

plucky spruce
viral dagger
#

whatever ig

plucky spruce
#

the only plausible killable monster next would be maybe noxus

plucky spruce
#

since Xeroc is not stupid to just accept death i think

brazen moth
plucky spruce
#

i mean

#

what is yharim going to talk about noxus anyways?

viral dagger
#

so how many gods are for sure in calamity, we know at least 8 but we apparently the genocide killed hundreds

wheat walrus
plucky spruce
#

don't think a lore item would matter

wheat walrus

plucky spruce
#

literally one piece

wheat walrus
#

a puzzle of one piece

viral dagger
#

i played through all of violet, it was fine, but i put the game down for months so the devs could fix it

#

also the devs should make thorium canon since calamity is built to be compatible

brazen moth
#

no

plucky spruce
#

real

#

fargo's DLC becomes canon when?

#

also, doesn't calamity make thorium even more of a joke?

viral dagger
#

like just give it the base game treatment and rewrite the lore to fit calamity

brazen moth
#

that would also require a rewrite of calamity

spring helm

Nah

I like it but it's not my type of stuff I feel like

Tho Yveltal

for my favorite legendary design

wheat walrus

prefer Necrozma, Yveltal, stuff like that

canon pokemon solos most of fiction tho to be fair

sleek halo

he can also just

literally take over xeroc

#

similar to lunala and solgaleo

#

realistically

(Not to mention at least manga wise he can just go into Ultra Necrozma form at will lol)

dolliv is just a autistic girl theres nothing else to say

it does suck

sleek halo

she got goat horns

brazen moth
#

@spring helm do not the silva

viral dagger
pliant ruin
#

mainly just cuz i want to eat every cheese ever but also cuz ive found vegan substitutes to be surprisingly tasty in the past, which is probably to further justify their higher prices

sleek halo

how can be cow, she has goat horn

thats literally the only reason

#

vegan meat is legit just better than normal meat most of the time 4 me

brazen moth
#

the only reason i’m not vegetarian is cause fish

plucky spruce
#

i'm tired of acting like all of the other, i will not hide under the cool people that say do not

pliant ruin

i can buy a pound of ground beef for like 11 reals on the market

shh

My bad cous

pliant ruin
#

i like the headcanon that

providence as a human

#

wwas not actually a awful person, for atleast a chunk of her life

#

i like the idea taht

#

given her apparent fury at the dragon of flame

plucky spruce
dry scaffold
#

I saw that Popcorn

pliant ruin
#

it must've done something that was personally infuriating to her

spring helm
pliant ruin
#

it just being evil wouldn't cut it for providence to be ''furious"

#

so my hheadcanon is

#

providence's life probably sucked

like

she might've been a homeless kid or something

plucky spruce

you see

#

@spring helm the crimes thy kind has committed against humanity are not forgotten, and thy punishment… is death!

plucky spruce
#

i accidentaly burned down my house because of boiling oil

pliant ruin
#

but one day her life turned out for the better, maybe got adopted into a wealthy family and studied to be a knight

plucky spruce
#

and now i hate

#

the dragon of oil

dry scaffold
pliant ruin
#

but then the dragon of flame came and destroyed her new, better life

pliant ruin
#

it would also

#

be even cooler

#

if the dragon of flame was also responsible for her childhood being shitty, in this headcanon

#

like he torched down her house originally killing her family so she was forced to be homeless, then she gets adopted by a wealthy family and turns into a knight, dragon of flame ruins her life again

dry scaffold
spring helm
pliant ruin
#

it'd be a good way to explain why she has such a

#

nihilistic view on life

#

her life sucked

#

it got better

#

then it sucked again

spring helm
#

Tropes are tools, quality of work is based on execution

pliant ruin
#

so in her eyes there's no point in striving to make things better cuz itll just come tumbling down eventaully anyways, much like how it happened with her

I can assure you

i like the idea of provi having a outright tragic life as a human, leading her to be the type of character that's like

brazen moth
#

tropes exist for a reason

brazen moth
#

because people like them and they make good stories

pliant ruin
#

you can't help but empathize with how she's gotten into such a wicked mindset, but also she's too far gone to the point you know there's no choice but to kill her

kind of klike

avoiding tropes doesn’t make you a better writer, it often makes you worse if you’re inexperienced

who wanna do a calamity run w me

spring helm
# dry scaffold I can assure you

Well how about this?
An episodic series where major, world changing events occur constantly and yet the status quo is returned to always.
With an overarching plot point of there being an individual forcefully maintaining the status quo, for better or for worse.

pliant ruin
#

not really

brazen moth
pliant ruin

by the point u find cal ingame she's not harming anyone and is just livign in a cave and being sad

dry scaffold
pliant ruin
#

she's also not got a wicked mindset

pliant ruin

its a worm

#

r u saying her making a big evil flesh worm is a bad enough crime to justify killing her and putting her on the same level as the goddess who wants to commit global genocide

providence sees life as futile and wants to kill people for it

brazen moth

you cannot say “these two things are the same” while saying two completely different things

calamitas realized her actions were terrible and isolated herself and bathed herself in nothing but misery and trauma for years to avoid hurting others

dry scaffold

but it’s literally the the same end result

pliant ruin

same end result????

#

providence keeps killing people

until the very end

calamitas stops doing it and regrets her actions

one gets killed and the other is spared

two different end results

I suppose it’s my privileged upbringing, but I believe that given time and effort anybody could be redeemed

sorry man i used to tolerate you but the mix of unecessary cynism and you being a contrarian dosen't help also the fact you were weirdly flirty and clingy with me before i started ignoring you is pretty strange idk.

One of the unfortunate realties of life is however that we often don’t have the time required to redeem certain people

if I was I wasn't trying to be

apologize for the former as well

Because while I think that people should be saved, one must prioritize themselves as well and not throw their lives away trying to help others

And no one individual is the cause

pliant ruin
#

blood moons is the calamity equivalent of that one time of the year when alot of ants grow wings and start flying in every lamp ever and they're really annoying and nobody likes them but ultimately they're not actually harmful they're just really annoyign and freaky

the ants that just like

grow wings halfway the year

viral dagger

#

How do societies cope with death when the dead really do come to life sometimes

viral dagger
#

where tf do you live? australia?

pliant ruin
#

and then u go outside and ur external lamps have 200 ants flying around them and its really annoying

brazen moth
#

as a floridian even i have to say that’s fucked up

pliant ruin
#

and kind of gross

spring helm
#

What kind of cultures would develop from that

pliant ruin
#

but u kind of get used to it

viral dagger
#

little brother of florida here, wtf

pliant ruin
#

i live in brazil its like

#

common ocurrence here

spring helm
viral dagger
#

🧀 you are in hell

pliant ruin
#

during summer usually

spring helm
#

Because flies would swarm in the thousands around light sources

pliant ruin
#

its not actually harmful but it feels really freaky to have to walk through a path with a lamp next to it cuz theres a bunch of bugs flying around and even if they cant do shit to you and are tiny its still freaky and its weird when they walk on you

spring helm
#

Not just house flies but other kinds of flying insects as well

viral dagger
#

"I live in Brazil" you could have started with that, that place is worse than current day Azafure

pliant ruin
#

and also sometimes they jumpscare you inside ur own room

#

but theyre not as present there

spring helm
#

Anyway on the subject of crabulon

pliant ruin
#

they jsut squeeze in sometiems

#

also did i tlel you guys these ants immediately day days this

#

they just drop dead

brazen moth
#

i just get giant mosquitoes and gnats

pliant ruin
#

they dont get killed by anything they actually just ddie

spring helm
#

Mushrooms and the fungi that developed the glowing mushroom biomes

pliant ruin
#

cuz thats like the last stageq of their life or something so they legit just grow wings at the last like 3 days of their lives, fuck around and then die

brazen moth
pliant ruin
#

glowing mushrooms are not even parasitic

#

theyt juyst control things that are already dead

There is a very real chance that the individual glowing mushroom biomes are one individual organism, or a group of integrated organisms

what if theres like

viral dagger
cold owl
pliant ruin
#

services to burn the bodies of deceased people so that they don't come back to the dead and their loved ones have to deal with the possible trauma of that

viral dagger
spring helm
viral dagger
pliant ruin
#

maybe it's a paid service, which would explain why

#

yk

#

everyone dosent just do it

spring helm
pliant ruin
#

It'd be really cool worldbuilding honestly

#

zombies are usually like a big threat in media that has them

viral dagger
#

what about the bodies of people who couldnt be buried, like soldiers lost on a battlefield who were never recovered

tall delta
spring helm
tall delta
#

dubious

pliant ruin
#

seeing zombies as rather than a actual threat just a unpleasant experience but less cuz of the zombie itself and more of the person who was the zombie being seen is

#

a nice change of pance

#

pace

tall delta
#

dude that was one hour ago die

viral dagger
spring helm
pliant ruin

pliant ruin
#

It reminds of how

#

during wars

#

alot of unusual strategies were employed by soldiers and innocent alike to find ways to do things they'd normally be able to do easily

#

like these mfers cant take the bodies to be burned cuz theyre in the middle of a war so they just

#

find a makeshift, probably nowhere near as efficient, solution

viral dagger
#

blood moons are supposedly such non-threats that they might not even bother

pliant ruin
#

The idea here though is

#

not the threat itself

spring helm
# pliant ruin during wars

Now there’s a thought. During sieges in real life, corpses may be thrown over the walls of the besieged city in order to spread disease and weaken the city’s defences

pliant ruin
#

is just the thought of seeing someone you loved before

viral dagger
#

you might be right, its never expanded upon

pliant ruin
#

come back as a mindless monster

viral dagger
pliant ruin
#

like the zombie itself is like, as much of a threat as a real life wild animal like a badger

#

but its whats seeing the zombie in itself that is so upleasant

tall delta
#

Hello loreous people

spring helm
#

Now if blood moons could be accurately predicted, it is very possible that soldiers would have thrown bodies into cities close to an expected blood moon

pliant ruin
#

like imagine ur wife dies and then u wake up one day during a blood moon and she's back as a flesh eating mauled creature

pliant ruin
#

it seems like it would be

viral dagger
#

apparently they were pretty good for training, so cities might even have incentives to not destroy bodies

spring helm
pliant ruin
#

dude

#

thinking abt like

#

all the little worldbuilding details calamity has and expanding on them is some of my favorite types of lore discussion

#

i love when they happen

viral dagger
#

calamity needs more

spring helm
#

Could you bury your deceased whole knowing that they would come to life and be used as target practice for your country’s soldiers?

brazen moth
#

imagine you’re training during a bloodmoon and you just see your father’s corpse

viral dagger
#

its so desecrated at that point its unrecognizable

viral dagger
#

and its to be expected

pliant ruin
#

what if people could volunteer for that

#

like you give consent to the army to use ur body for that

spring helm
#

Perhaps even being in the army would be an explicit volunteering for such

pliant ruin
#

kind of like ppl who die and let their bodies be used for organ donating

viral dagger
#

they wouldnt really have a choice, if their body isnt destroyed they will come back anyway

spring helm
#

Like it was an expected fact that the bodies of soldiers would be left alone and allowed to be used as training in the form of zombies

pliant ruin
#

maybe

#

being in the army would grant you the privilege of always having your body disposed of fully

#

or smth like that

#

cuz armies usually have some benefit like that for their soldiers

pliant ruin
#

though realistiaclly some armies would probably just lie about that

pliant ruin
#

rich ppl

spring helm
#

There is a very real incentive for an army to have a ready source of training for their soldiers

pliant ruin
#

it might depend on the exact civilization

viral dagger
#

dont see why regular people couldnt grab a torch and brun themselves on teh way out

pliant ruin
#

some might be more driven by morals

#

others migth be more driven by longterm plans

pliant ruin
#

yeah burning themselves is

#

incredibly painful

viral dagger
#

like imagine some grandpa on his deathbed like "burn my house down after i die"

pliant ruin
#

maybe the government makes it illegal to burn corpses so that the capitalistic nature of corpse burning services is prolongedç

#

jokes aside though

#

i like the idea that being burned by a wizard is a basically guaranteed way to not get zombified cuz theyre experts AND using arcane fire

#

but

#

its not impossible to just

#

burn a corpse normally

viral dagger
#

i wonder what happened during blood moons in ilmeris

pliant ruin
#

like the house down method might work but it might also just leave a charred down body

#

and also it'd cost

#

you know

#

a house

viral dagger
#

just put em on some dry logs or a small boat and viking that bih

pliant ruin
#

yeah that might be a good way to do it

pliant ruin
#

might be a little uncomfortable cuz i imagine swimming in blood isnt as

viral dagger
pliant ruin
#

easy

#

its denser and stuff

viral dagger
#

also i wonder what thats like, like whos blood would it be if draedon analyzed the DNA?

spring helm
#

Imagine all the zombies created when Yharim was still doing his genocide

pliant ruin
#

''real" blood but just a substance with the exact same properties and appearance but a nonbiological origin

#

just. magic bullshit basically

viral dagger
pliant ruin
#

like it's clearly blood but its just not blood from any living being, it just showed up there

pliant ruin
#

you know one of my

#

favorite bits of worldbuilding in all of calamity

viral dagger
#

Yharim: The worlds most staunch Athiest

pliant ruin
#

its the fact necromancy in calamity

#

has a legitimate nuclear fallout effect

#

and a strong enough necroimancy spell is basically just nuclear warfare

viral dagger
#

wait where are we getting this? ravager?

pliant ruin
#

no, the enviroment

#

brimstone crags

#

also sunken sea futurely

viral dagger
#

how

pliant ruin
viral dagger
#

idk what your talking about

sinful adder
#

is that necromancy

#

the brimstone crags aren't a result of necromancy, they're just like that

visual kiln
#

8

pliant ruin
#

they're caused by the nuclear fallout effect that calamitas's necromancy had on the area after her fight with brimmy

viral dagger
#

only necromancy im aware of in calamity was the ravager becoming mindless

frozen stag
#

*brimstone magi

pliant ruin
#

sunken sea will also get this w/ the rework with one of the sub-biomes

pliant ruin
#

her entire like, deal

#

is necromancy

visual kiln
pliant ruin
#

she blew up azafure

frozen stag
viral dagger
#

yeah her brothers too i forgot

sinful adder
#

necromancy and brimstone are not the same thing

pliant ruin
#

i know but in this casei ts necromancy

viral dagger
sinful adder
#

calamitas uses both necromancy and brimstone

pliant ruin
#

her immense necromantic energy caused a fallout effect in the brimstone crags

#

as seen by the spine trees

#

and it'll be seen in sunken sea rework

sinful adder
#

but the brimstone crags are like that mostly because of the brimstone, not the necromancy

pliant ruin
#

with one of the sub-biomes

sinful adder
#

how do you know that

spring helm
#

I wish calamitas’ immense necromantic energy had a fallout effect on me

sinful adder
#

oh

pliant ruin
#

like its literally canon information

frozen stag
#

The only rules of necromancy are that:
The body returns but not the soul

pliant ruin

they're pretty obviously not natural formations

they're created by the fallout effect of brimmy and calamitas's fight
