Small question, does miracle matter atomizes and reatomize weapons to be more efficient?
pretty sure that what is stated is that it interacts with molecules, not atoms
"The Ilmeran crystals that you know as "Sea Prisms" are self-illuminating and provide a weak electric charge indefinitely, even when tapped by circuitry. Etching the crystals with conduction pathways at the molecular level and providing an initial energy impulse, not unlike igniting a newborn star, transforms them into a facsimile of the Exo Prisms you are familiar with."
Well, while this isn't specifically about miracle matter creation, it's related
and well
it's at the molecular level
not atomic, not subatomic
legendary dog art
hell, it could even be official concept
I’d assume a mix of magic stuff and the property of exotic resonance turning things into raw energy, what’s left may not be more efficient like say the vivid clarity but they can output far more then the components that make them due to miracle matter making a ludicrous amount of energy
That is looking amazing so far with the armour
@kylloni0427 this is an English only server, please comply with the rules
wait tf
oh they left
alright then
you should contact modmail instead of pinging mods directly
What happens here
done
Nicee
Awesome sauce
baller
You cooked 🔥
Okay this is badass
That's my line
bland sauce 😈
Cheese sauce 🔥 🧀 🔥
Yharsauce
Looks great good job
hmmmmmmmmmmm
Well done
ah yes very protective
the warm embrace of holy fire
looking up the meaning of Calamity character names almost never works. They usually make no sense compared to the lore, because the writers never took their meaning into account. The name Yharim means either "Eternal King", or "Near to God" depending on what source you look at, and Xeroc is a recycling company in the UK.
i mean he was meant to "rule forever as God-King" so i guess yharim's name sorta makes sense
xeroc being the name of a recycling company is pretty funny tho
I just thought it was funny, like the most evil being in terraria has a name like that
Primordial trash
Can't fucking believe this
They turned xeroc into a british
yes it was funny, you're not wrong
at least imo, I just wanted to point that out
I keep thinking of Xerox the print company lmao
the name yharim is also in-universe based on yharon's name and out-of-universe based on the city from bloodborne
love it when 02 affects godly designs
if it works it works
like how Yharim packing all of the Hallow and only some of the Evils serves his propagandistic purposes
Oh god xerocs going to start the empire again
Most names, not all
Yeah, I know. I should've probably mentioned that, because a lot of them actually do make sense.
searching up otonilou brings up genshin impact characters :cluel
I searched up otonilou and it gave me a whole bunch of vehicles like cars, trucks, and excavators
and also the actual character itself
I remember searching XM-05 thanatos on google and finding the thanatos I made in another game and posted on the game's forum 3 years ago
the big name meanings are like
Yharim/Yharon - Bloodborne location
Draedon - Pokemon gym leader
Calamitas - Disaster in latin
Noxus - Latin for dark one
Xeroc - Printing company
yuh what's your opininon on me big worem
neat
thank
Machine-made monstrosity! I choose you!
obvious inspiration from drayden is obvious
except the printer company is called Xerox, but I found a company with a name literally spelled "Xeroc" And it's a recycling company in the UK
I got a question in terms of auric dragon stenght at what point is yharon at is he strong compared to the others?
Yharon is the 2nd strongest auric dragon that ever lived. Zeratros was the strongest
He got the chin to match
(it's his beard)
Actually who has the soul of zeratros?
Xeroc
Now is the strongest entity in the calamity universe right?
maybe not really the "universe" but definitely the strongest in the world
it's kinda unknown what's out beyond the world
Both noxus and prime moonlord are just random beings, one a alien in the distortion and one a alien supposedly from our dimension and both are way stronger then anyone else but xeroc
(Also isn’t noxus able to destroy more land then Xeroc but xeroc is better kitted for a fight?)
if you think about it Xeroc can just leave terra and train somewhere else where he can get stronger
But moonlord is dead
like dragon ball
The dragons failed to kill moon-lord and had to seal them, and I was talking about at full power before their fight with dragons
Then you are right
Nah moon rock serves as the best food
Normal rocks can be consumed (salt and maybe sugar?)
So imagine the moon rocks, def able to sustain moonlord
i mean hes starved of cosmic energy 
Eh fair, prob lacking in that department
Do the soul artifacts ever have plans of being significant again or are they just remnants of old lore?
I think just remnants for now
i saw one guy saying creators are lazy and dumb
on reddit
is that a fact
ig they just hating
oof I can't be bothered to read this, but xeroc does not create Terraria in new lore
In oldl ore he was the omnipotent creator of the world or whatever, but here hes just the strongest god
lore has been rewritten over time
yea just skimming through there's a lot of things that are just wrong
gods have a pretty narrow definition in cal lore, with them being relatively new compared to when the world is created
iirc xeroc is only like, 800 years old or smth?
i don't think he was every actually omnipotent, just the strongest known being in the world
same as in current lore
albeit the power scale is much smaller now
he's the strongest guy ever, but by a smaller margin
still a pretty massive gap between his and yharims power
xeroc is just a human who turned into a god
he's not
a creator of anything yeah
just like all other gods he was a normal guy
and then ascended
What do you all think is up with xerocs motives?
Also courier yet another omori pfp I see
Who in calamity should be the one conducting the therapy for everyone else
also who think there should be a complete bad apple cover by the nameless deity
permafrost seems like the person to have enough of his shit together to begin helping others
seems legit
but also one of my OCs is a sweetheart i'm sure she'd be willing to help out
ok
also are all dragon bird like or is it just yharon
auric dragons were likely incredibly varied
Yummy
meaning a possible insectoid dragon
what illigal substance calamity character would take
@split mortar
Based on what we know
I think he just wants to stop Fovos from happening again
But there's probably more nuance than that
but rn i think it's safe to say it's probably juist stop something as catastrophic as fovos (probably noxus) from happening
Yeah I assumed that was the case at minimum
at a baseline
statis smokes weed
he has the energy
the rest dont consume any illicit substances except maybe like alcohol from time to time for some of them
amidias too i think
those strike mas the two best for the job
oh true
Would yharim drink alchohol?
would there be alcohol strong enough to affect him?
i wonder if his alcohol tolerance is as crazy as his physical strength
Amidias was stuck in a clam for possibly a decade so I don’t think he would be there just enough
perma was also stuck in a giant ice thingy for a long-ish time
but out of all of them amidias and permafrost remain the most capable of offering genuinely good advice as far as i'm concerned
It would probably fall under poison resistance, maybe he would drink lots to get affected
We do get poisoning if we drink three so maybe that’s a sign it would affect him
honestly maybe in the past but at this point he's so utterly devoted to the crusade that i don't think he'd ever dedicate time to self-enrichment like drinking
like i think at some point yharim probably just gave up on everything that wasn't Kill Gods
including Having Fun
I think killing gods IS his fun
Fair enough but i think it's more of a obssession
I think those two are separate things
He did go in the aerie to be depressed for like some months even while we play so maybe during that time
He picked up drinking
HELPPPP YHARIM CALLED BRAELOR, STATIS’S ROOMATE
There's a difference beetween obsession (autism) and obsession (unhealthy)
i understand the first one me too
Oh he definitely enjoys it but i think it's a type of enjoyment different from something that's just casually fun like drinking alcohol or something
Like i think at some point he'd stop doing things like the latter entirely
it's both for him
Yharim not beating the homophobe allegations
Hey lore question
Anyone know the story behind anahita, the water elemental and where she came from?
she lived in the abyss
To my knowledge elementals just appear
and she's the water elemental
She appeared in the abyss and silvas prescience moves her out
and silva's domain expanding through the abyss kind of forced her to leave it and move shallower waters
But that’s about it I think
Did the leviathan also come from the abyss?
Did not recognise you were cheese for a sec there, I need to read names over profile pics more
we dont rly know whats up with the leviathan
im chease
We don’t know, could be summoned by her and just a puppet, or a simbiotic relationship we don’t know
No one does
Canonically
Ah ok
why does anahita try to lure the terrarian with her song? i would assume she just wants to be left alone
she's evil and fucked up
How about we bring back your profile pic
Is she tho
Now that I think about it yeah she does lure you in and them unleashes her pitbull on you
Plus she wants to drown the world kyoger style I think
Fr??????
I mean, yeah, the dudes old
Yeah, dragons died like a little past 1000 and it’s like 1880
Was the draconic era 800 years ago?
The end was 800 years ago yeah
This is like Japan where eras are like 200 years
I thought it was like eons ago man
The dragon era was like thousands of years long though
Oh ok
That's not rly evil all elementals want that
just because others do it doesnt mean its not evil
its like, a primal desire all elementals have in my eyes
but they aren't quite powerful enough to follow through
Brimstone was, until scal happened
yeah brimmy was cracked but was eepy and then got calamitas'd
And then we happen a decade and a half later
Maybe the others are too
Cuz like
Ik in-game and lore stuff is different
But
10 different sand/cloud elementals at the same time
Could just be the actual elemental making copies to annoy you
Or something
I think that’s due to those elementals doing a hive mind thing one mind many bodies
I am about to get the "game mechanic" treatment
I feel like that is just a gameplay moment
While brim and anahita are just 1 strong body
although there is pretty firmly two sand elementals judging by the accessories
What are the bestiary entries for the smaller elementals?
Anahita actually is a physical being
i'd argue if sand elemental one is even canon
Vanilla sand elemental you mean?
but for cloud
and the way this is worded does make it seem like it is indeed just PART of the elemental
so I guess fighting it multiple times is canon
For the non boss elementals
sand elemental is canon
most vanilla things are canon it's just that they don'tr have very detailed explanations about their existence (usually because they don't really need one)
in sandy's case though she's probably one of the by technicality and association more important vanilla enemies
since she's one of the main elementals
but ultimately she's still pretty unimportant rn
Also cuz red wants the lore to be ambiguous and up to the player to interpret
which to be fair most other elementals from calamity proper don't do much either besides brimmy and silva
ehhhh
i'd argue it's more so that red just dosen't want the game to have lore

Earth elemental my boy
Plus the bestiary entry for sand doesn’t do much other then just be similiar to cal elementals
thing is its competition for the slot of "important vanilla enemy" is cave bat
not an elemental hes smelly
Robot not real elemental
but i was more so talking about the relevance of vanilla creatures in calamity
Shut up
not terraria itself
He has lore
he has yeah but like
barely any
hes a neat little bit of worldbuilding and thats kind of it
nothing wrong with that tho
Yeah, failing at having the power of an elemental I think
i like neat little bits of worldbuilding
Same
yeah earth elemental isn't an actual elemental it's a robot made to replace brimmy i think
since she went honk mimimi zzzzzzzzz
Do we know how long she slepd?
Another indeterminate long
she was just eeper sleeper, a sleemjy little gal, the eeper
I can only assume her way of causing her domain to grow may be vastly different to any other elemental
Maybe it’s sleep, gain immense power, melt the world until out of power, repeat
Or however she would expand hell
Shit up
He was uhh
Built??
By
Someone????
Same people who could make something contain probably dozens of gods essence
Gluh
yes
Who made the wall again
earth elemental isn't a elemental it's a robot supposed to fill the role of one
Azafure people
If only the sky civilisation had more lore
we got an azafure RACIST over here /s
Didn’t azafure also make earth elemental?
Why
Crimes ™️
what is yharims networth
I thought it was like underground wizard gnome people civilisation
because brimmy was too being being eepy sleepy
underground wizard gnome???
And it's yet again the damn azafurians
Brim went to sleep so they made earth to replace the missing elemental
are you just getting stuff from your dreams now
That's not azafure
jesse what the hell are you on about
It was the biggest and oldest city
it was revealed to me in a dream
Why did they need to do that
Fr
probably will be elaborated later
Because they worshipped brim
i assume brim's presence was important to azafure somehow
And wanted another sentient elemental or something
Great moonlords here
Why is his nose like that tho
He has like
The uh
The nostrils
Everywhere
Except where they suppose to be
Cause it’s moonlord
moonlord is fucked up
Everyone in calamity mentally?
And amidias
Litteraly
the bandit is probably also chill
Moonlord has most chill
Aren’t they like super greedy or something, maybe that’s not healthy
Like it's a fucking space god of death and destruction why would he follow standard viable anatomy
I mean they only still from the goblin so they're based
Bandit steals from the goblin
The goblin at least steals money with your consent
its morally right to steal from the goblin
Moonlord has the most chill, end of the debate.
Based, goblin is like the richest though
Ok ok
Yes
source?
Drunk princess tho
side note I love the wiki being wrong
Princess
Why do you do this kana
to me this shows that it ISN'T chill
Non cannon self insert
If a dev comes here, i want to make them a deal
A year of straight moonlord posting
We know no cal lore on them
Shurr up man... Ugh shakes butt
Princess
Can you not
presumably
What is draedons net worth
There has been a worldwide war that has attacked like everyone, we don’t know how much being a princess is worth on avg
moonlord likely doesn't understand the concept of currency
Draedon himself probably doesn’t do money things but more bartering if you want things from him, impossible to tell if we were to sell all his machinery and tech
Probably better to say endless
Cause only xeroc and noxus can give maybe something he doesn’t have
finally someone asks the real questions
Or below it like a ant intellectually trying to understand a phone, just can’t due to dumb
why must you do this
The zoom in blocking the eyes makes it worse somehow
no question mark, therefore you made a statement rather than pose a question
They didn’t ask yet, therefore they did make a statement and their next text will be a question
true
Unless it’s that
Or that
technically I didn't use a question mark either
This is so much lore we’re discussing guys
so, addendum:
What is draedons networth?
asking the real statements
Enough.
Another question
Does moon lord
Have a chin
Indeterminate but likely owns a nigh endless amount of beyond worth things like Exo prisms or the off button for the plague
He drops like 2 platinum
37 fargos pounds
He also explodes so that’s what we can get that’s left of it
How have I never heard usage of fargos currency until now this is untapped potential
fargos time was already peak
I broke cheese
Stroke
Or someone did
the inbox exists
?
Like look at this
his chin region is too busy being tentacles
Man
Would yharim have beard hair, or does his Exo tech perfectly shave it off inside the suite
If only the moon lord gif had his mouth vertically and all of the eyes were realistic
the beard doesn't fit in his armor and he steadfastly refuses to take off his helmet
He like burned in magma when he refused to eat yharon
There's probably no hair follicles there
thanks kana
Surely wasn’t for long since he is alive and is well enough to have started the crusade, so there is is say a likely chance he has beard hair
this is the first time i've been pinged with moon lord i'm honored
Nah man
I want him DEEP-FRIED
So it’s overgrown inside the helmet?
I want yharim looking like Anakin skywalker
He would not survive or be able to start the crusade so sadly not that deep fried
I do like the concept of having his exo tech enhancements shave it
goes with the joke the other day that the enhancements also let him take showers
A glitch happens and he becomes insta bald
Damn that's crazy
the exo tech barely makes the armor stronger, just gives good QoL
It’s what has allowed him to stay in the aerie for so long
And he got posters a cactus a pet rock
Pretty sure yharim is oversized in general
All that stuff in there
Nah I mean like what if the suit is noticeably bigger than him
Holy shit
That's not a big lad
he definitely ate his veggies
That is tall
That's a fucking enderman
Yharon made him eat his veggies after the lava
Infinite energy? Potentially?
Plot twist yharim lied about not eating yharon but he only took one bite
Exo tech does generate a huge amount of energy indefinitely
Cuz ik that dragon meat gotta have insane amounts of protein and other stuff
He couldn’t resist the dino nuggies part of yharon
auric calories
Hence why all that’s left is the badly deep fried normal biggie of the old sprite
That's why yharon looks like that
Fr
Lore discussion discusses anything but lore
do you have like a quota to fill or something
Technically lore
356 days of moonlord.
this needs to stop I tell you
isnt it 365
oh
365 and 1/4th of we want to get pedantic
give or take a few minutes
This is why we can't have nice things
Who even counts all the days man
Why is there three versions of the moonlord gif
NAH AND THE SLOW ASS FADE OUT
😭
calendar companies
Have I just made another great evil plague this server?
Oh wha
There should be a gif like this but it's plaguebringer
So that you can actually say it's
Plagueing
The server
draedon brought the plague to calmain, how scary
So close
Activate your windows 
I had once brought down wall of flesh to like
43 hp
Maybe 9 once
Pain
(I had failed to o beat it for like 13 more attempts)
Doesn’t sound pleasant
What’s going on here
Why is kana spamming the moon lord gif more than usual
Oh it’s not kana
Still tho
Kana is, but others are aswell
Plus there’s two other versions of the gif we have found
might I introduce you to kms microsoft activator
KMS Emulator in C (currently runs on Linux including Android, FreeBSD, Solaris, Minix, Mac OS, iOS, Windows with or without Cygwin)
How strong was Fovos in his prime, actually?
Stronger than Noxus, weaker than Xeroc I think
I’m confused on the strengths between prime fovos, noxus and xeroc, I thought Noxus was more destructive then xeroc? But xeroc would win in a 1v1 is that still accurate?
yes
xeroc is the strongest character but noxus is more destructive
it's the example i used way back then
plaguebringer goliath
by all means
pbg is not stronger than like
old duke
nowhere near stronger than old duke
however it's far more destructive
because it spreads the plague n shit
Ah ok
“Is he stronger than you?”
“Good question. If it came to just destroying, Noxus might give me a bit of trouble.”
“But would you lose?”
“Nah, I’d win.”
I mean dog and the mechs are a complicated fight
Imagine yharim
Also why did he let yharon die
yharon chose to fight us
it was either yharim dies at our hands or yharon dies trying to stop us
either way they won't see each other anymore
so lore wise what are the elemental accessories
like Heart of the Elements
Do we actually kill Anahita or Brimstone Elemental or nah
Personally I headcanon it as the elementals lending us a hand after we beat them up
"I may have destroyed an entire city, killed the entire population and caused some guy to become even crazier, but honestly killing bosses sounds fun"
I’m not sure if the elementals can die
Doesn't she have blood and gore when killed?
They take on a tangible form
If they can die then I’d be a little confused as to why some are still around considering Yharim’s army hunted them down after Azafure fell
HotE probably isn't canon
Elementals can't die unless literally all of their element is destroyed
So does Astrum Deus but it doesn’t canonically die
It's not really like gems in Steven universe because they can also just have an arbitrary number of bodies, such as with the brimlings
The cloud elemental is part of a bigger one too
HotE exists because fabsol wanted a harem
valid lmao
the elementals don't really get killed i don't think
like it's a bit hard to kill the thing that embodies all water
Guys imagine if calamitas had an evil cousin named serenitas
Uses liquid nitrogen and ice cream salt to attack
Wants to bring serenity to the world by freezing everything with her ice or nitrogen or idfk
That sounds like a great idea
Is the art for xeroc pre ascension or post ascension?
pre
Summons sisters named placidity and ataraxia
placidity and who....
You look rather pale. Could be ataxia. It's quite a problem back home in Cyrodiil.
Is the Daedalus storm bow made of cryonic bars like the rest of the Daedalus gear?
NO FUCKING WAY
daedalus armor and daedalus stormbow are referencing 2 different people named daedalus
one of which no longer exists
hey guys did you know that dragonblood is a thing that exists apparently
i must understand calamity cosmology
you didnt mention that the pillar planets are only visible when you're around the pillars

favos
but anyways i've been trying to comtemplate what in the heavens are the pillar enemies' place in calamity lore
you can always contemplate worse things
like dragonblood
hell, what are the other planets in the world of Terraria orbiting?
or do they just sit still and the ball of Primordial Light just orbits everyone else
terraria is flat earth
terraria is flat just not in the way that flat earthers think the earth is flat
by definition the entirety of the 2nd dimension is flat
both of which no longer exist? I think?
great lore
HOW
wdym how
whats the fire ball on top
i just sat there and it happened fr
LOL
aura
this is lore
infernum isnt canon
infernum is not canon
🐌
Wotg is _____________
😤
cool pic tho
thanks
what about it
see, the reason why im looking into how the fuck does calamity cosmology works is to figure out how to make a canonical explanation for why in the (extremely unlikely) event that astral infection is moved to post-ML, an astral infected meteor would randomly drop from space after you kill the Moon Lord
I highly doubt that will happen
ik
but if you insist...
the astral infection could be eating the moon lord's rotting corpse
in the way that literal rot does
the infection being the rot
you could ditch the meteor and have it be fovos that falls to the ground
i mean, I've personally even just thought of a different idea (Just make astral infection post-Aureus. make aureus instead a random wandering machine from space that came back to Terraria)
aureus already can just somehow summon another astral meteor
there is no space
that would be weird
that's not canon probably
i dont know how to explain it
see, im just trying to get lore justifications for my insane ideas
i must back them up
is everything unexplainable considered not canon or what
That throne ain't gonna fit provi
im coming after you
Yeah you're coming "after" me because I'm always first
Random idea: stuff from Enter the Gungeon would kinda fit in terraria, and to some extent in calamity, with how it's both wacky but also cool
Like, I could totally see Statis going to the Gungeon to kill his past and stop them from losing to DoG
Or the player inventing and crafting all the wacky guns in Gungeon
How did you do that?
Never seen that from infernum
I think they consumed an auric soul
thanatos' deathray charge up is based on a gungeon weapon
would DoG betray noxus if it suited his own interests and ego
Wait that sounds familiar
prototype railgun or smth it's called
Oh right, prototype railgun
Yeah, that
It's also kind similar to like
Last prism
It's silly that Thanatos is also called
Thanos
Side note, Draedon calling the player both an unknown factor and a catalyst is inconsistent with the definition of catalyst
It is out of character for Draedon to use such a flawed metaphor
A catalyst is something that does nothing indirectly but causes stuff to happen indirectly just by being there. The player is not a catalyst
The player is a reagent. A direct part of the reaction, I think.
Catalysts also aren't an unknown factor
Lore writers please fix
They can be an unkown factor if you don’t or didn’t know a catalyst is there
Anything can be an unknown factor in that case. This doesn't make the analogy any better
I think draedon was using the catalyst example cause catalysts make it easier for change to happen and we were doing that, I do agree that reagent would be better but I imagine if there was a lore reason draedon accounted for the chance we don’t know what a reagent is
That could work, but it's still kind of weird
Like, that doesn't make it a better analogy
A catalyst can cause a change, in a sense
It just isn't altered or consumed in the process
In that regard, it vaguely makes sense to call the player a catalyst, but it does not make sense to equate that to an unknown factor
Plus we are quite known when we fight Exo mechs so even my definition of unknown factor still wouldn’t work
Unless we have something about us not even we know that is different but I don’t think there’s enough like that for it to be considered enough of a factor
Like I said...
Lore writers please fix
Yeah
What's the distortion?
Like, at all?
Is it another planet, an alt universe, what is it?
Probably an alternate universe, who knows?
A alt universe with vastly different biology in it then the normal universe
Some sort of mirror world, like the distortion world in Pokemon
It probably has darkness instead of primordial light
So like, a magic black hole analogous thing in place of terraria's magic "primordial light" sun analog thing
Primordial dark
This is just conjecture, to be clear
Yeah
For what we know could cosmolite be a distortion version of auric? Both are among the strongest materials we know just that cosmolite is more bendable and doesn’t reject while auric is better in every other way
Yeah
Wait were all gods once human
Yeah
I’ve heard silva wasn’t
Wasn’t she like an elemental?
Most presumably sentient
Dryad
I also wonder how they consume the souls
the ritual
Most presumably human
Do they just go up to a dragon and go
They just go nom nom nom
S U C C
Well not
They have to kill the dragon first
Idk if a ritual
The ritual probably is either not that hard
Or very very public knowledge
How tf
I heard that before
so far, the only gods that werent humans were otonilou and tyrian (the gods of illmeris) and silva
wym by "overall"
The ritual was known widely enough for there be a lot of gods
yes
Before yharim killed everyone
yharim*
most gods ascended literal centuries ago
“Hey zeratos let papa xeroc give you a hug” aww that’s so tho- S U C C
Yeah
yharon is the only auric dragon
he's been the only auric dragon for at least 100 years
the other gods who were mortals who learned it were killed off by yharim
most likely more
iirc yes
Who absorbed a soul
i think she was just a crystal that gained sentience and existed for like millenia
and watched a war between hell and heaven or some shit
I Headcanon the creatures in the distortion look like ultra beasts
And you get both from killing the strongest things of that world
And what would that be
“Welcome back devourer just in ti- HEY YOU BROUGHT YOUR COUSIN WITH YOU!”
“I didn’t bring a cousin of any so- WAIT HOLLLD ON.”
Just really goofy detailed and weird creatures

Like digimon
You know them from Pokémon right?
Not really I don't know every single pokemon
Oh but basically
ultra beasts are awesome
they're just pokemon if the designer were allowed to go wild and do whatever the fuck they felt like
REAL
Oh must be why I haven't seen them mentioned
In a nutshell they are alien Pokémon
look at this silly creature
They randomly pop into the world via “ultra wormholes”
why is it small
Nice
I love them
I personally doubt the distortion ppl are like that
All we see are teethy horrors more or less
Signus DoG
My tiny silly
Maybe storm weaver but he's not really teethy
How would he even eat with those rigid teeth on the sides
Guzzlord(Pokémon) is a teethy monstrosity
He looks like an energy plug
You mena the huge one with claws?
Ye
That doesn't look anything like anything we've seen from the distortion
Everything from there has goofy vertical mouths
The only thing connecting that guy is his huge teeth
I guess
So maybe there darkness is an energy and light is the absence of darkness
I have Pokémon brainrot so
I think the distortion would look like the distortion realm in Pokémon
Both distortions house giant evil worms
The only thing similar is the name
Evil worms is a very broad term
Evil worms are cool
Real
Technically worms can't be evil
Like could a worm be evil for? Eating??
Jaywalking
They can't walk and probably would burrow under the road
vehicular manslaughter
Ik that one, it looks cool
Cart of the gods
charity fraud
Naked signus 😳
What if he is like 5 worms that form a stickman
Who knows
That’s possible
Sigbus
Sigbussy
he wasn't actually referring to the scientific definition of catalyst
he was actually namedropping the critically acclaimed Catalyst addon for Terraria Calamity Mod 
Speaking of Draedon, what exactly is he?
robot
A sentient robot with possibly a past life
6 century old sentient ai
he's either a botched consciousness transfer into a machine or just an ai
I think he was an organic being who just transfered his consciousness into a robot suit to continue with the machinery eternally
it's a possibility but we dont know for sure
A catalyst

is what he is
does draedon watch over us the second we decrypt the first codebreaker schematic
P sure he observes us actively
He literally studies us and improves the mechs from that
its complicated
That’s during the Exo mech fight, there isn’t any draedon bodies outside of the Exo mech fight
He can observe the player in more ways than just sending a recon body :p
I appreciate that it’s unclear if Draedon is going to be a problem in the near future or not. He repeatedly insists he has no motivation to screw up Terraria’s ecosystem further when asked, ||but also directly states he’s going to start carving up Terraria’s moon for resources now that the Moon Lord is toast||.
Yeah, just not with recon bodies
||He probably thinks the moon isn’t that important||
||Plus the sun is smaller then the world so it probably is not the only thing with gravity effecting the earth, if primordial light has gravity||
As far as I can tell, none of the people in Yharim’s retinue are telling the whole truth, except maybe Yharon who simply isn’t in the mood for more than lamenting how far Yharim has fallen.
Yharon isn't very trusthworthy either
If anything he's
the least trustworthy, probably
I don’t see why draedon would lie,aybe unknowingly not telling the truth
Yeah Draedon dosen't have much of a reason to lie for the sake of lying
He absolutely can lie but he has no real reason to do so
Draedon seems like the kind of person who deliberately withholds information because “you might have said no”
Plus we are among his most wanted specimens to learn about, lying could complicate that unnecessarily
aaron yim
If he were to destroy things for no reason, which he dosen't, he would have no reason to hide it from anyone
Nobody can stop him
omni no brainrot
bad!
Except maybe xeroc, or yharim destroying mechs before they can fight sufficiently enough to win but even that is iffy and likely leads to yharim running out of energy and then getting nuked
Best case scenario yharim stalls him for a bit
I think Yharim would just use his yharring fist and yhorrible sword and destroy the exo mechs
high-extreme difficulty
The least trustworthy is the Devourer of Gods. That’s not his real name, that might not even be what he’s actually doing when he erases gods, we do not know where he comes from or what kind of matter he’s even made of, he was only working with Yharim for personal gain, and despite being a cosmic horror he can be damaged by small arms fire.
Well yeah but excluding him
I trust dog he's chill
distortion guys are entire other bucket of worms
yharim could beat the mechs
but he couldn't beat draedon and i don't think anybody can
because
Have you even seen him speak, that’s the exact opposite of chill
well
you can't really
kill draedon
maybe xeroc. we don't know enough to really tell.
he just chill like that
anyways yeah
dog is not to be trusted lol
he's a massive fraud too
Size doesn’t determine power, it’s known devourer isn’t its name, likely sends god essence to noxus in the distortion, he comes from the distortion and I assume matter itself isn’t different in either dimension since cosmolite is fine to work with
especially with the whole CV thing
If Xeroc were to then it would fuck up the rest of the world with how much would need to be destroyed to kill draedon
and also how he technically doesn't consume the gods he kills lol
yeah likely
safe to say he sends them to noxus
Does that mean Noxus is doing like ascension ritual on the gods essence like gods did auric souls or something?
The Star Trek line “what does God need with a starship?” Applies here.
“Since when does a god wear powered armor?”
¯_(ツ)_/¯
dunno
dog is not really a god in current lore
but
who knows what noxus is doing with all the god juice
It’ll be a long time before we find out
he devours them
maybe he just really wants to eat a god flavoured milkshake or osmething
maybe noxus is like xeno'jiiva monster hunter
accumulating a shitton of energy for its own growth
Surprised dog never killed the wall of flesh to eat all that god essence it has
except instead of elder dragons it's gods
||is that why the Drunk Princess can summon DoG in a pinch? She promised him cocktails?||
That’s divine nuclear waste
Still god essence
yummers
And a lot of it
All but a bit of the gods that yharim killed before meeting dog is in wall, would certainly have enough to entice dog I think
Maybe it’s hidden from his senses by whatever magic requires the Guide to die to reveal it
Also all god essence is this, it’s basically what dog seeks for
Maybe
As in vanilla lore, what isn’t the Guide telling us?
But he’ll joke about smoking Deathweed?
Deathweed can make potions so maybe he is trying to get us to collect some for potions? Or maybe it’s just a joke that he didn’t think much of
The existence of the Golfer implies that at least some of the Calamity lore characters would play golf or at least vaguely understand the rules of golf.
god of golf
Remember, most of these characters aren’t impossibly ancient. Calamitas is a young adult and former child soldier, most of the Calamity happened within the town NPCs lifetimes and is why they’re all scattered around the world.
Is there cal lore for torch god?
no
They’re a developer in-joke
The crusade is while old there def are some people old enough to have existed before it happened
So yeah
I’m talking more about normal people
Cause the crusade is what a century old?
Must be some normal people past that age
well permafrost is at the end of the day just a guy
Though the Angler being young enough to not witness multiple civilizations collapse and gods wrestling each other in the sky might explain why he’s a petulant little-
he's by all means just a normal person with no paranormal life extensions such as being a elemental or a god
so yeah
Maybe magic can extend life but he certainly don’t have that type of magic
Maybe scal but not permafrost
i doubt scal would have that too
maybe there's magic to extend one's life but none that we know of
and if that was the case i'd imagine it'd be pretty rare
The Tavern Keeper has no idea what’s going on due to being an Isekai victim
She does have dark magics like brimstone, I don’t see it too far out the one able to ressurect from the dead (with debatable results) wouldn’t be able to lengthen one’s life (with questionable results)
maybe?
but i feel like extending one's life wouldn't go to well for that matter yeah
and i doubt scal uh
Probably end up like Ravager if done for too long
would really wanna do that
So the Tax Collector was merely cursed with unending, agonizing half-life until purified, and not actually a dead petitioner in a hellish afterlife?
Because the Underworld isn’t a Hell, people used to live there
he probably was cursed or something i dunno
not like it matters i'll put him back in hell anyways
I heard some people say it was from brim v scal fight that cursed him
maybee? i mean it's a interesting headcanon but like
as far as we know they weren't really
cursing people
they were
you know
💥
like brimstone magic is different from a curse i'd imagine
one is just . boom explosion fire 💥
the other one is
The magic itself seems to do that though, aren’t many of the enemies just cursed souls of people?
yk
a curse
well yeah but that's because
of the necromantic magic
which now that i think about it
right
there also was necromantic magic
Last time I made sure his house looked like it was crumbling and miserable, which is actually pretty hard in Terraria. Even the damaged looking blocks still look cool.
Pretty sure brimstone or necromantic is a submagic of the other with how closely intertwined they are
I think they're separate
The Crusade started 100 years ago
it's just that cal uses both
damn yharims old
Permafrost is older than Yharim, in fact
Dragon blessing.
Yharim is in his 130s
Well she has the same powers as brim so yeah there def is necromancy being thrown about
Fucking hell permafrost ancient
yeah yharim is on his deathbed
literally
though this means perma probably won't last much longer either : (
can we just sit arround for like a decade till yharim kicks the bucket
we could do that
wait like 8 years and we aren't even gonna have to fight him he'll just have dropped dead himself
Permafrost is chilling despite yharim being attuned and having Exo life support at a younger age
magic
He’ll preserve himself with a magic AC unit and melt as soon as he’s taken out of it, like that one Lovecraft story everyone makes fun of
