[delicate nymph]

ya I read those

[solar wharf]

Anything when it comes to gods and is said by yharim, don't take it literally unless he either has no reason to lie or no reason to not have that information

Like saying silva was imprisoned twice

[spring helm]

What likely happen was that Yharim found out that the GoS’s followers performed a necromatic ritual and Ravager was the result.
So he just assumed “Wow would you look at that. Seems like I’m right and all god worshippers are evil just look at what they did.”
Absolutely clueless that they were trying to revive their god not make a monster

[solar wharf]

He has no reason to lie about that to us

So it's accepted

Bestiary and kinda draedon are the only sources we 100% trust

[pliant ruin]

Yeah nowhere does it really say

That they specifically wanted destruction

Or that the failure was in that they lost control

It's just

they wanted to bring him back

it came out as a monster

Could've very well been a benevolent feat of heroic sacrifice

[real silo]

That's a cool concept

[visual kiln]

ravager is a minecraft reference

[real silo]

A bunch of loyal followers sacrificing their lives to revive the hero

[pliant ruin]

im a minecraft reference

[real silo]

aza you're a minecraft reference

[visual kiln]

true

[pliant ruin]

what the fuck

[real silo]

you're probably named steve

[visual kiln]

ur also a minecraft reference

[real silo]

proof?

evidence?

[pliant ruin]

Altaraxia has the letter A on it

[visual kiln]

altraxia
alax
alex

[pliant ruin]

Grass Blocks have A in their name

Grass Blocks are in minecraft

coincidence... i think not...

[real silo]

don't butcher my name...

I would never be alexey user

[visual kiln]

u are already alex

[real silo]

alex fans when they encounter malex

or femalex

[visual kiln]

what lore should we discuss rn

we should talk about extremely controversial lore i think

create drama in this discord

[pliant ruin]

do u think providence could drop some sick bars

[visual kiln]

yes

[pliant ruin]

drops sick bars on u

[visual kiln]

wtf

[cosmic zenith]

Man
I'm losing my mind

[visual kiln]

why

what happened

i will help u find ur mind

[cosmic zenith]

These bigass termites keep spawning in my room

[visual kiln]

where did u put it last

oh

call an exterminator

[cosmic zenith]

Wouldn't help

[pliant ruin]

:(

Are you sure?

[cosmic zenith]

They probably come from the forest patch nearby

[pliant ruin]

oh

ic

Is it like

a seasonal thing?

[cosmic zenith]

Besides, it's 1 AM

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I moved in this July

[pliant ruin]

ik here where i live i get bigass flying termites here too

usually in summer

they go for lamps and stuff

so i keep my lights off

[cosmic zenith]

Does it work well?

Because I'm not fond of the idea of one taking a tour through my body while I sleep

[visual kiln]

wdym 😭

[pliant ruin]

well as long as you don't have any lights it should work

nearby*

any lights nearby i mean

try turning off any external lamps if u have those

[cosmic zenith]

There's a lamp post right outside my apartment

I uh

Can't quite turn that off

Without some vandalism

Vandalism

I'll be right back

[pliant ruin]

Good luck soldier,,

[visual kiln]

summon ants

[sinful adder]

cats eat bugs

you could get a cat

also, it might be possible to find where they get in from and seal it off

[cosmic zenith]

I can barely take care of myself man
I can't own a cat

Lol

I did find out where they're coming from
And it's rather annoying
I feel cursed

[real silo]

what kinda cats do you have that eat termites

[pliant ruin]

release spiders in ur house

let the horde devour

[real silo]

mine eats crickets sometimes but not anything bigger or smaller

[cosmic zenith]

I've seen some of my grandma's cats kill cicadas

Not entirely sure they ate them though

[real silo]

I've only ever seen cats eat crickets

very rare but it happens

[pliant ruin]

my cat killed a rat once

the only rat ive ever seen in my entire life

[real silo]

The one time my house had a rat problem my cats didn't get to catch it

stupid creatures

[sinful adder]

they will if you feed them less

maybe

[solar wharf]

Our cat kept bringing us scorpions

I'm surprised how he died due to stray dogs but not poisoning

Or venom is more correct

[real silo]

That sounds evil

I'm not underfeeding them just to catch a rat that I ended up catching myself anyways

[sinful adder]

Sorry I was joking

[real silo]

the maybe made it seem not sarcastic

[sinful adder]

It's more like "this would work, but you shouldn't actually do it"

[hoary cape]

This is why tone indicators exist

[celest kettle]

Does Yharim kill children

[hoary berry]

yes

not specifically because they're children

[celest kettle]

😭

[hoary cape]

If you worship gods you are being burned at the stake

It's as simple as that to him

[hoary berry]

but
when you raze entire cities to the ground, killing everyone indiscriminately if they are your opposition (followers of a god)
you will obviously end up killing children too

[faint plank]

||hai goose||

[hoary berry]

||hai||

[high merlin]

Are you telling me Yharim is... the bad guy?

[hoary berry]

perhaps

[warped rapids]

hes not exactly the upstanding citizen you seem to think

[raven sphinx]

citizen? he's a military leader?

[warped rapids]

joke mate

[raven sphinx]

your point still stands tho lol

[warped rapids]

yea hes not a very nice fella lol

[untold oracle]

What? Outrageous!

[high merlin]

I do wonder how many people there are who think Yharim is good just because he is no longer a flat character

[real silo]

They're all victims of yharim's gaslighting

Gaslit so good he convinced people irl

[warped rapids]

reminds me some people watch the boys and think homelanders a legend

[tropic merlin]

I mean, at least Yharim is not like that psychopath

Or at least he wants you to think like this

[sinful adder]

Tragically, an astounding number of people irl are incredibly dumb

[real silo]

is homelander a homeophobe

[tropic merlin]

is homelander is stupid

[warped rapids]

yea yharims def better than that fella

but thats like saying a pile of shit is better than a pile of shit on fire

[high merlin]

Yharim is Mussolini

Homelander is Hitler

Both suck

[warped rapids]

real

[tropic merlin]

We still can't be sure 100%
Since all lore items were described by him, he could just lie to us to make yourself look at least not so bad

[warped rapids]

does yharim love milk as much as homelander

[tropic merlin]

He doesn't love lava that's for sure

[untold oracle]

Oh no I’d make it the other way around

[tropic merlin]

Yharim is Hitler
Homelander is Mussolini?

That's.... Feels wrong lol

[warped rapids]

idk about that one chief

[untold oracle]

I think you can’t really even compare those ppl in general

Homelander and Yharim are very different ppl

Not to mention those two said dictators

[warped rapids]

i mean yea i just brough up coz of this

[tropic merlin]

[calm patio]

yharim has killed millions of people so

[hoary berry]

i do a small amount of yapping

[warped rapids]

i mean id say quantity doesnt override just how fucked old homey is

but like theyre both at 100% lol

[warped rapids]

did you write the bible

[hoary berry]

it's a small portion of the ideas i'll need to write about the AotC line

[warped rapids]

my favourite weapon

[hoary berry]

23 entirely separate entries (and five more that are fairly similar to another five, so i'm excluding them) for each weapon and individual attunement, alongside the actual mechanics of how each weapon (and maybe each attunement, that might be too much work) and how they are discovered/upgraded

that image just scratches the surface of what i'll need to consider

[warped rapids]

calamity lore gettin deeper than real life lore

[untold oracle]

Unholy

[untold oracle]

I imagine you could overcharge heavenly gale so far the weapon turns into unstable miracle matter

[brave dew]

Golem and ravager are kinda close to each other

Like they both were made in attempt of smthin

[devout grotto]

Thinking about ore progression in my story

Like what I've said, I'm doing some canon divergence and making the Hardmode ores exist in the world since the beginning

Although they won't be mined in a time where the Terrarian is still considered to be in Prehardmode, I'm thinking that there's a pickaxe progression like in Minecraft

[sinful adder]

That already exists in the game and would work if all the ores were there from the start

At least, if the next pick required a boss material or something

[devout grotto]

Oh yeah that's true

...I haven't been in the early game for a while now so I kinda forgor 💀

[midnight musk]

I sometimes wonder if there is a well defined pdf containing the entire lore in chronological order somewhere on the internet

I'd like to read it all incase I missed anything

[split mortar]

Yeah there is

The pins of this channel

[split mortar]

#lore-discussion message

[midnight musk]

I'm so silly

🤦‍♂️

I committed an oopsie Daisy

[split mortar]

It contains 99% of what’s in game

[untold oracle]

I thought of a good system how I do wing progression in my text

Basically the character does some magic stuff with the souls etc. and makes the wings an actual part of her body, then they just grow and get more powerful over time

[devout grotto]

🤔

Sounds interesting

[hoary berry]

This is similar to how it works for one of my OCs

They straight up just grow wings

[real silo]

Fierce wings no way

[sinful adder]

I always thought the wings are like magic prosthetics

Removable but acts as an extension of your body when attached

[fierce pagoda]

I always just thought, "equip-able wings? that's awesome!" and never gave it a second thought

[untold oracle]

I’m prolly gonna write about how she’s very clumsy with them at the start since she’s probably not very used to having an extra pair of limbs

[split mortar]

That’s what fledgling wings are for

To learn without reaching space on accident

[random mulch]

making a second random weapon because i think it's fun

this time i'm making a post-exos upgrade to arc nova diffuser called the pulsar cannon

W.I.P.

[hoary berry]

arc nova diffuser my beloved

it and flak kraken are probably two of my favourite weapons in all of hardmode across all classes

[random mulch]

charge it up to create a small pulsar and then release it to make a gamma ray burst

[real silo]

Charge weapons ❤️

[random mulch]

i kinda want the gamma ray burst to resemble thanatos' beam

[hoary berry]

literally

[deft vessel]

Real

[sage berry]

Idk why but I just thought of the idea that the Entropic Claymore would have a special effect on objects and creatures it hits if it existed in a world more like ours. Which is how I imagine the characters see their worlds. What if it was about as dangerous as being hit by anything else of its size, sure it would hurt but I imagine this thing would massively increase the entropy of whatever it hits. And I’m sure the other meld weapons could possibly have a similar effect.

[scenic olive]

Okay what would that achieve by increasing the entropy

[sage berry]

In effect I’d say it would start ripping it apart if it’s extreme enough, as for an object entropy measures how much useable energy is in the system, which if that increases massively, all gradients that normally hold our bodies together or the gradients that are differences in materials would disappear ripping objects appart and making life stop functioning on a cellular and atomic level…

[fierce pagoda]

who would have ever thought that the smallest infinity would be discussing cal lore?

crazy world

[scenic olive]

Bro is about to slash the air and turn it into slighty closer to room temperature air

[sage berry]

I mean that is possibly not wrong

But the air is already very equalized

[scenic olive]

Yeah unless the energy has nowhere to go it does basically nothing then

Because the entropy would be at its highest

[sage berry]

The entropic claymore I suspect only stops increasing entropy once all entropy is at a maximum so, the heat death of the universe. ‘Cause any object like in the vacuum of space would probably just be ripped to atomic pieces across the area as best it can

[scenic olive]

[sage berry]

Then again if the head death has been achieved then nothing is left to be hit so

[scenic olive]

im not a scientist but i think thats what the entropy is doing in general

[sage berry]

Yeah it just accelerates it drastically..: for anything it hits… probably in a very short time…

Maybe even the more it’s moving the more increased the entropy state

So if it’s stopped and hung up somewhere it won’t do anything if it’s thrown and hits the ground… an area around it increases in entropy

[scenic olive]

I think it would just

Mess with the flow of mana

and disrupts anyone that try to use magic

[sage berry]

I’m mostly going off its name as its tool tip doesn’t say much

[scenic olive]

You know what would be cool

Meld Construct Fishing Rod

Make it an Upgrade to Golden Rod

[sage berry]

Though I wonder if it’s just the claymore of it all meld objects can do something similar

[random mulch]

idk how to do an exo palette

[untold oracle]

Just add green and red

To the shiny parts

Looks amazing so far

[split mortar]

Yeah just gayify it boom Exo look

[sage berry]

What have I just come back to?

[split mortar]

Someone pixel arting a gun

[sage berry]

Ahh okay.

Though I’m still curious if the Meld objects might all have effects that increase entropy

Faster than normal at least

[random mulch]

exo-ified

[dusk laurel]

Holy crap

[sage berry]

Oooooooooo

[dusk laurel]

It's peak

[spring helm]

Orios, if you can still hear me
Combine the Ark of the Cosmos and Exoblade

[spring helm]

Looks awesome

[spring helm]

Actually nvm don’t do this I wanna do it

[sage berry]

Also how are the weapons we deal with able to only face threats described as continent level? I thought I head that somewhere

[split mortar]

Maybe? Idk the meldnobjects might be entropy magic or something idk

[split mortar]

Continent level is xeroc

We deal with country level max for scal

[spring helm]

And that’s over time too

[sage berry]

And yet were have weapons that are channeling the power of space itself and matter that can reshape likely anything into anything else I’d think.

[fierce pagoda]

The player is also continent level if they have a celebration mk2, enough rockets and time

[spring helm]

Solar panels channel the power of the sun and they certainly aren’t house level

[sage berry]

Okay, then can someone explain what the Arc of the Cosmos is doing?

[spring helm]

According to the tooltip, cut a small section of spacetime

[sage berry]

Aside from looking incredibly cool

[indigo glade]

They power houses so clearly they're house level.

[fierce pagoda]

it rips space time i guess

[spring helm]

And seemingly the collapse of the rip in spacetime causes stars to come out or something

[indigo glade]

The rip is sewed shut nearly immediately.

[spring helm]

Something something auric magic

[sage berry]

Yeah… and yet that is like a black hole if you’re going with ripping space time.

[split mortar]

Still cutting reality

That just doesn’t mean much

[midnight musk]

So the cosmite bars we get , it's technically ripped off the body of the dead devourer?

[spring helm]

Yes

The armour, that is

[midnight musk]

Cool

[spring helm]

I don’t think DoG’s body is made of cosmilite

[midnight musk]

yeah the armour which draedon put on him

[sage berry]

I think that’s planned to change but idk

[midnight musk]

Draedon went into his world and he used that to make Armor for him

[fierce pagoda]

isnt cosmolite being turned into ore anyways, so it wont drop form DoG anymore

[midnight musk]

what why

Huh

[fierce pagoda]

its turning into piss

[indigo glade]

Because we will be able to explore the Distortion itself.

[fierce pagoda]

distortion liquid

[sage berry]

Once that happens to be added of course

[indigo glade]

So it is simply more interesting to make the player acquire Cosmolite for themselves, instead of it just dropping.

[spring helm]

Possibly

Not confirmed

[midnight musk]

That's cool , I didn't hear about this

[spring helm]

Also you won’t have to farm DoG to get more

Which is great

[sage berry]

How powerful is Miracle matter as well? If the arc of the cosmos rips spacetime! And it is on par with it not past it…

If not*

[fierce pagoda]

its on the same level as exo prisms

[split mortar]

Miracle matter is another generating a high amount of energy endlessly material like exo and sea prism

[midnight musk]

Isn't exo prism a form of refined sea prism

[sage berry]

So… Infinity powerful? Infinite material?

[midnight musk]

Like an allotrope

[spring helm]

The Big Rip the AotC does is more a haxx ability than something done through raw power

[indigo glade]

Yes.

[fierce pagoda]

it generattes infinite energy,

but it isnt infinite itself

like one miracle matter cant make more miracle matter type deal

[sage berry]

Infinite energy means endless mass and endless density

[midnight musk]

One miracle matter can power weapons of mass destruction endlessly

[spring helm]

Miracle Matter’s thing is that it deconstructs and combines other stuff

[sage berry]

‘Cause it is a finite volume

[fierce pagoda]

its exotic resonance which generates the infinite energy, and that infinite energy comes from magic land

idk

[spring helm]

Infinite energy in the form of limitless power. The output is limited but it never runs out

[stoic gulch]

Hello lore chat

[fierce pagoda]

hello

[spring helm]

Hello

[sage berry]

Hey

[stoic gulch]

Whatcha talking about

[fierce pagoda]

where exo prisms get their infinite power and stuff

[stoic gulch]

Ah

[split mortar]

Infinite energy from prisms and powerscaling I think idfk

[spring helm]

The exo mechs are powered by exo prisms

So there’s your powerscale

[stoic gulch]

The thing that draedon hate that we named number 1638992926179

[fierce pagoda]

i think the ifinite power is linked to a god

[spring helm]

About the same level as SCal

[spring helm]

Dragon

[fierce pagoda]

alright dragon

[stoic gulch]

So infinity basically

[spring helm]

They have unlimited energy but their output is still limited

[stoic gulch]

Yea

Miracle matter is the better one right

[sage berry]

Yet they hold endless energy

[spring helm]

Eh

About the same really

[stoic gulch]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/225030931008847874/1289014786637692928/Fast_pumpoem.gif

[fierce pagoda]

Miracle matter and exo prisms perform different jobs

[sage berry]

I’m trying to understand this with our sciences and maybe that my issue.

[split mortar]

They make energy out of nothing not infinite energy out of nothing

[stoic gulch]

How so

[stoic gulch]

Ah

[fierce pagoda]

they are both around the same in power though

[spring helm]

Miracle Matter could potential be better as a material, but the weapons we make with it are on par with what Draedon makes with Exo Prisms alone

Mostly because he’s just way smarter

[sage berry]

What exactly could the stuff do? Endless transmutation

[stoic gulch]

He is the guy that’s like playing chess and sitting on his ginamonosaurus brain

[fierce pagoda]

also, i dont think miracle matter would make for a better powersource than Exo prisms, since miracle matter is way more chaotic and stuff

[hoary berry]

i do wonder how far you could push miracle matter alone, without any new breakthroughs with other materials

[fierce pagoda]

like id rather use exo prisms to power my robots that miracle matter

[spring helm]

Miraculous

[stoic gulch]

Draedon will make miracle matter square

[hoary berry]

what a miracle

[split mortar]

Miracle matter is a stablised exotic resonance meltdown so yeah makes sense it’s chaotic

[stoic gulch]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/568192082473386020/1295818397929574411/calamitous.gif

[spring helm]

Exo prisms might be better there because you can end up accidentally deconstructing your stuff with miracle matter

[sage berry]

But won’t it strengthen what it breaks

[spring helm]

Potentially

[split mortar]

If the right conditions are met yeah

[stoic gulch]

Me fighting scal and my Exo blade just randomly breaks

[fierce pagoda]

yeah but what if what your deconstructing are the fine parts and wires of a machine

[spring helm]

[fierce pagoda]

then the entire machine would break down

[sage berry]

True that’s what the Exp mechs attacks do right?

[split mortar]

To a limited degree I think so?

You can see miracle matter in the cause nuke gore

[fierce pagoda]

exo mechs are also made by Dreadon, the mechs were able to improvise and use their meltdown to make new attacks

i dont think any one other than Dreadon could make machines that can do that

[sage berry]

So they’re are creative? Yet not alive?

[stoic gulch]

Omg he has a spine

He’s a real skelli

[split mortar]

They would get rejected by auric so idk

[stoic gulch]

So am I

[sage berry]

That just makes me think even further that if Draedon wasn’t stopping them they could be sentient of not already

[fierce pagoda]

They are creative the same way AI chatbots are creative probably

but way more complex of course

[stoic gulch]

Yeah

[sage berry]

At some point you get to us and then there is no turning back

[stoic gulch]

If the normal mechs have it and is less advanced

Exos would make they’re own souls from dirt already

[sage berry]

They have souls the Exos don’t

[fierce pagoda]

Dreadon already made sentient robots

but he didnt like them

[stoic gulch]

Dirt souls

[split mortar]

That’s due to the soul smoothies super terrorism polycule they have

[stoic gulch]

Ik

[fierce pagoda]

so he made sure these ones were non-sentient

[stoic gulch]

Just like me fr….

[random mulch]

if i had to guess it's some extremely unrefined form of miracle matter that can only grow prisms instead of melding weapons

[stoic gulch]

I SAID DIRT SOULS

[sage berry]

I’m practically certain they would gain sentience given enough time… and then gods help us all

[stoic gulch]

That is somewhat how normal gems and prisms are so probably

[split mortar]

Draedon would just override and rewrite their sentience if so

[fierce pagoda]

Dreadon probably would have a failsafe mechanism for that

[stoic gulch]

DIRT SOUL

[sage berry]

Yeah I expected that

[stoic gulch]

Lol

[sage berry]

I wonder what we would do with the tech they have like the prisms… probably destroy ourselves but… yeah

[fierce pagoda]

The terrarian has the genius idea of turning exo prisms into a dye, then equipping it all over their armor and accessories

[sage berry]

We’d somehow have dumber

Have to be*

We’re not great

[untold oracle]

Nah solar panels should be star level

[random mulch]

Random weapon #2: Pulsar cannon

[fierce pagoda]

did you make this in ms paint

you know the crystals kinda look like tasty candy, they look so yummy

[stoic gulch]

1 in 10 dentist approve

[stoic gulch]

Sick

[fierce pagoda]

thats 1 enough for me

[stoic gulch]

NOOOO DONT COLGATOR

[fierce pagoda]

[untold oracle]

Colgator lost their dentist certificate

They are a normal gator again

[fierce pagoda]

god damnit

my teeth

[split mortar]

Ah no more cursed gator

Mayhapse improvement idk

[fierce pagoda]

Maybe, until i grow them back of course

in about a month...

[random mulch]

one funky idea i have is an alternate miracle matter-ish material that uses cosmilite instead of auric (and a bunch of other different materials)

[untold oracle]

I was reading through the lore doc and it seems like Perma ”created” the tundra

I have to somehow include this…

[hoary berry]

he made the climate more extreme, but it was already like that to some degree

[untold oracle]

Yeah

[untold oracle]

Climate change in Calamity real…

Thankfully Yharim is here to combat it

[dusk laurel]

Mreow

[random mulch]

i'm gonna kinda do a daily thing where i make a weapon per day for the next week or so

though i dont really wanna do weapons that are just 2 weapons slapped together and instead a direct upgrade or a completely new weapon

like the weapon i made yesterday, which isnt an upgrade to anything

if anyone has an idea i could base a weapon off of feel free to tell me

[spring helm]

DoG boomerang

[untold oracle]

Thought of a quirky weapon that shoots out auric chains that stick between two walls (or air?) that deal damage to enemies and you

[random mulch]

eradicator already exists

[spring helm]

Oh

[untold oracle]

Kinda like a harpoon/rainbow gun except you can shoot multiple

[random mulch]

too similar to the jailor tbh

[untold oracle]

Oh.

I’ll check that one out

[random mulch]

shoots mine things that have electrical arcs between them

[untold oracle]

Yeah saw it

Looks cool

[magic epoch]

Gay

[untold oracle]

!!

[random mulch]

functionality for my first 2 weapons so far are the auric sword having 2 normal slashes and then a third slash where the segments split apart (while being connected with arcs) and functions more like a whip, and the pulsar cannon that charges up a lil thingy and shoots out a sustained gamma ray burst for a bit before having to be recharged

[untold oracle]

So kinda like magna cannon?

Or what was it

[random mulch]

pulsar cannon is an arc nova upgrade

[untold oracle]

Oh I see

[scenic olive]

Auric Claymore

[frank dune]

Durandal but auric

Also hello everyone

[hoary berry]

it's like a grandupgrade of magna cannon and opal striker

[random mulch]

strong sustained damage at the cost of it doing nothing while charging or if not fully charged

probably gonna see about making a weapon that uses ashes of annihilation

[hoary berry]

something i was reading in this chat gave me an idea for writing something

but i forgor

[indigo glade]

Simply rember.

[hoary berry]

true...

[untold oracle]

[hoary berry]

an idea did just pop into my head that i'm going to make a note of, but i don't think it was my original idea

[random mulch]

skectehs of a rogue AoA weapon

[frank dune]

aoa?

[random mulch]

ashes of annihilation

already made auric and exo prism weapons, might as well complete the trio

concept, might use it, might not

[split mortar]

Is that meant to be like a magic version of Artemis or apollo or something

[random mulch]

rogue weapon that bites on an opponent to deal consistent damage and eventually makes a small explosion

[split mortar]

Oh ok

[scenic olive]

I wish theres more weapon like Clockwork Bow

Or titanium railgun

where you actually need to hold down on the weapon like a bow and arrow

[random mulch]

apparently planetary annihilation is gonna get reworked into something like that

[scenic olive]

Thats awesome

[wheat walrus]

bals

[spring helm]

When are we going to get a railgun upgrade line

Where is the exo railgun

[scenic olive]

Exo Railgun

Finally a miracle weapon that is a gun!

[untold oracle]

🤯

[scenic olive]

he might be cooking

[random mulch]

you mean this exo railgun?

[scenic olive]

thats a railgun?

[random mulch]

electromagnetic related gun so close enough

[scenic olive]

i had mistaken it as chainsaw

[random mulch]

this aint no photon ripper

[split mortar]

What kind of chainsaw you been seeing

I just deadass saw the argument that if auric souls are tied to concepts like rebirth or flame, then anybody stronger than Yharon must be so strong that they transcend all concepts and laws of the universe entirely

[untold oracle]

what

[deft vessel]

[split mortar]

???

What

[indigo glade]

Yes, these concepts based on Terraria? They're actually about multiverses.

[split mortar]

Do they think they control the actual concept of the domain and not just getting a boost and a funky soul in that area?

[untold oracle]

Atom splitter ass reasoning

[hoary berry]

[manic coral]

Like. That's not how this works. That's now how any of this works.

[untold oracle]

Now?

[deft vessel]

Probly misunderstood it as them having complete and uter control of their domains

[manic coral]

I feel like I don't nessesarily need to state that it doesn't given entire control over a concept, and it's just "hey they have powers relating to this since this aspect is part of them now"

Like I feel like the former is never implied while the latter is implied several times, even if indirectly at points

Like. Life existed without the Dragon of Life or any corrosponding diety to it existing

[deft vessel]

Cei, can you craft some more god seeker knight lore?

[pliant ruin]

i am

i just saw a doggy

:(

[manic coral]

It's not like entire concepts dissapeared as Yharim went around killing people that took the souls

[pliant ruin]

does seeing dogs makes me a dog now??

[deft vessel]

Yes

[split mortar]

You were a dog before

[untold oracle]

No, you said birdy after it, so now you’re a bird

[pliant ruin]

I'm gonna go get pizza

[deft vessel]

Where did you come across this?

[untold oracle]

Yummers

[indigo glade]

Dragon of Death dies, dying is now illegal.

[manic coral]

Would prefer not to say since I don't want people to end up dogpiling somebody or being dicks on "my befalf" when all I wish to do is wish to talk about why this logic is flawed briefly just to make sure there's no confusion

[untold oracle]

Housing crisis imminent

[deft vessel]

Understandable

[deft vessel]

”Sir. This is the death police.”
looks at dead corpse
”It seem you have died without premission.”
drags corpse into prison

[manic coral]

oi

[untold oracle]

Also known as, the dungeon

[manic coral]

do you have a loisence for dying, mate?

[split mortar]

I’d hope lord chat is capable of knowing it isn’t that strong

Plot of elden ring be like

[deft vessel]

Didnt know that the death police were Azafurians

[untold oracle]

Man

[hoary berry]

why does this actually fit well with my accent

[untold oracle]

The death police died too then

How ironic

[untold oracle]

I have so many cool ideas to write but they’re all at post-moonlord

[split mortar]

Death dragon and life dragon die

Uh oh paradox

[untold oracle]

Provi and yharim to be specific

Yharon too

[split mortar]

Then write them or write notes of it down

[untold oracle]

That is a good idea

Hm it seems like I have crabulon next

I’ll prolly just make it a quick encounter and not an 800 word battle

[hoary berry]

if the thought of writing them is bugging you a bunch, just give them a go i'd say

Of course, I did have one, I wasn’t about to start fishing illegally, but it’s funny in retrospect

[brave dew]

What about core of calamity

[random mulch]

calamity refs has still not been updated with the new xeroc

Materials being made of Materials was a real issue back in the day.

[split mortar]

Staying to my knowledge

[indigo glade]

Pre-Ascended Xeroc was remade.

[indigo glade]

Since it was Cosmatic Mango's first official work for Calamity, and they were dissatisfied with the result after improving.

[half roost]

So... I missed a lot apparently.

I've seen new DoG

[random mulch]

[half roost]

Yes.

[split mortar]

And the new phase 2

[random mulch]

[half roost]

I like how the armor fits perfectly with DoG's personality.

[half roost]

Edgy and imposing.

[random mulch]

what about the ceaseless void concept

[half roost]

I have not seen that.

[half roost]

WOAAH

Actually looking like a portal now!

(Also majestic)

[split mortar]

Yeah

[indigo glade]

May or may not be used.

[random mulch]

Health bars for bosses if you haven’t seen them

[half roost]

Calamity UI

WOOOOAH

[half roost]

DAMN

THESE ARE MAJESTIC

[split mortar]

Each boss will get a unique one

That answers my next question.

Slime god

[random mulch]

desert scourge

[half roost]

Yeah

[random mulch]

[half roost]

Met him personally

Nevermind

[random mulch]

this might not be the final one as a second version is being worked on to adress some flaws

[half roost]

Oh...

[split mortar]

^

[half roost]

Completely different vibw

vibe

Are they changing Aquatic as well?

[split mortar]

It finally fits the lore of being a water creature though

[split mortar]

Yeah iirc

[random mulch]

if you're asking why.... there sure are reasons

[dusk laurel]

Can you guys move to CST maybe

[half roost]

Yeah, I see the fins there

[split mortar]

Don’t have the sprite though

[restive bane]

really looks like something flung out of the sea

[split mortar]

That’s good

[half roost]

It doesn't really have that... dryness the others did.

Is DS now in-lore living in the Sunken Sea?

[split mortar]

It still in desert

[half roost]

kk

[restive bane]

but the jaws are a bit too wide tbh, and the fins are way too straightened for something dragged through a lot of sand

[split mortar]

Infact it’s covered in sand and spit armour

[half roost]

Looks like just got covered in mud

[restive bane]

long jaws > wide jaws

[dusk laurel]

You mean mandibles?

[restive bane]

yes.

[indigo glade]

Can we bring this to #calamity-update-talk instead?

[random mulch]

i mean... it kinda did

[dusk laurel]

^

[half roost]

KK

[restive bane]

for the best

[dusk laurel]

We should move this to CST

[hallow sierra]

This is sprite sucks

[random mulch]

read the tin

[dusk laurel]

[random mulch]

a second version is being worked on to adress some flaws

[dusk laurel]

Not even actual criticism

[mighty zenith]

insane user detected, opinion rejected

[split mortar]

Why?

[hallow sierra]

The head is big

[dusk laurel]

[hoary berry]

my head is slightly big compared to my body (i'm skinny as hell)

my sprite sucks

[split mortar]

It’s covered in a thick layer of sand that’s prob why

[hallow sierra]

Wher sand

[split mortar]

Oh wait nvm I think I committed dumb

Hopefully it gets addressed in resprite ig

[dusk laurel]

I aged like 2 weeks from one hour of DS design discussion

[split mortar]

That’s not good for you, maybe you’ll catch up in age

The user cant even type well

Trully the fate of society

But well there is a 2.0 in the works

[indigo glade]

Trully.

[ruby heart]

(No its not being made because of redditors not liking it, hope they melt in aerogel)

But mm it needed some rendering and color fixes

Head design too

Head and jaw still big, its the center focus of the thing

Bobbit worm

Its main thing is using its jaw

[calm patio]

redditors opinions are invalid

[ruby heart]

Trully

[dusk laurel]

Yeah

[ruby heart]

Or well not, if its good and reasonable feedback

Just saying it sucks dont help nothing

You'll never believe it but I was too

Maybe you'll believe it

Idk

[split mortar]

I believe it but didn’t expect it

[real silo]

I used to go on calreddit to try and correct people about update stuff

Too lazy to do that nowadays though

[sinful adder]

I still occasionally check Reddit for news and such, or for answers to specific questions, but at least I don't have an account

[real silo]

I only use it for manga nowadays

Reddit has never been good for art imo

Twitter is better for that

[mighty zenith]

too many degenerates

[real silo]

Not even that

It's just how subreddits work

You join art subreddit you're only going to get stuff in that subreddit

Ig it works if you really like a certain thing and only that

[sinful adder]

Twitter is awful, I would never touch it

Worse than reddit

[split mortar]

Out of the main social media’s I don’t think anything is worse then Twitter

[hoary berry]

hello everyone

I don't even interact on twitter besides begging for fanart

Really did the Shanks approach of saying one insult, not elaborating, and winning in the end.

They aren't real.

[real silo]

sorry

oh wait

[indigo glade]

Trying to pick a thematic name for my Terrarian OC but I cannot. Think. At all.

[real silo]

worst part of twitter was the random bots trying to follow me

[split mortar]

What’s the themes so we can help atic it

[indigo glade]

I want it to be a Greek God/Titan for... Reasons.

[real silo]

Zagreu

I totally don't have hades brainrot

[indigo glade]

When I put this name in Google, it was wondering if I was asking about Hades first.

Hilarious.

[real silo]

He's not a famous guy besides the game geah

[real silo]

Also what's the guy like

[split mortar]

^

[indigo glade]

Cunning. Primarily uses magic, but due to his background, excels in technology, too.

Essentially, if he is the one starting the fight, he probably has some trick up his sleeve.

[split mortar]

Isn’t hekate the Titan or god of witchcraft?
Sadly draedon took it in gfb

[real silo]

Don't care

Just pretend gfb isn't canon

I was gonna suggest hecate too

[split mortar]

It isn’t canon

Gfb should be canon but make it the Australia of calamity

Just fucked up place no one want to go to thanks to the drunk ladies capable of levelling a continent

-# this is a joke

[indigo glade]

I'm not going to use Hecate, because I know every reader will associate it with Hekate.

[real silo]

I read australia of calamity as aria of calamity

Cool comic..

What about prometheus

Fire guy

Titan of foresight

[indigo glade]

Already have a planned original Calamity story with a character named Prometheus.

[real silo]

Damn!

[split mortar]

Ah that’s the name

[split mortar]

Fuc

[indigo glade]

One that will fit the name Prometheus a lot more.

[split mortar]

Hai stip

[cosmic zenith]

Speaking of Reddit, maybe I should post another question or AMA

[indigo glade]

As in, fire and civilisation is a major part of their story.

[cosmic zenith]

Howdy!

[indigo glade]

Hi, Stipulate Venus.

I am in agony.

:D

[cosmic zenith]

Why?

[split mortar]

Can’t think of a name for their terrarian

[indigo glade]

Trying to name my Terrarian OC that is fitting.

[split mortar]

Wants it to be Greek god/titan

[indigo glade]

Greek figure in general can work too.

But due to prior naming schemes with the character who named them, God/Titan is most fitting.

[split mortar]

Sisyphus ? Idk

[real silo]

Sisyphus is definitely pretty cunning

Doesn't seem very magical though

[split mortar]

Litteraly outsmarted death

[indigo glade]

Sisyphus is also a bitch.

[real silo]

Mino

Nowait that's not a god

[split mortar]

At this point we just saying ultrakill guys

i cannot get the AotE entry to feel right

at all

[indigo glade]

What do you have currently?

[hoary berry]

nothing

i've deleted three separate entries for it

[indigo glade]

Dang.

[hoary berry]

then i did AotA in five minutes

i might switch back to the biome blade half for now

that's the one that needs the most work anyway

[hoary berry]

it being quarter to midnight probably isn't helping

[split mortar]

Yeah

[real silo]

Goose to sleep

Go

[split mortar]

No

[real silo]

(melon) Gun to sleep

[split mortar]

No

[hoary berry]

altraxia to no

i dont want to

Shampoo

I meant

Shame

[hoary berry]

shampoo

perhaps that is the key to AotE's entry...

[real silo]

shampee..

[real silo]

It needs to keep its hair clean

[split mortar]

Ark of the elements uses shampoo to get existence to stop occupying that space

[hoary berry]

if you rub the fabric of spacetime with enough shampoo, it'll rip eventually

do that with enough shampoo and the rip will be big

boom

[split mortar]

It’ll get into one of its many unseen eyes

[hoary berry]

that's the lore for the Big Rip abilitiy

[split mortar]

Are quest fish canon

[sage berry]

Hey uh guys… can Thanatos like fly? Could it say… idk if it were just aiming to cause as much destruction as possible, move fast enough to fling an object into earth? Like an asteroid or something? It has the laser that I’m sure can provide at least a good launch velocity?

[sinful adder]

It can't fully fly

[sage berry]

Okay good

[sinful adder]

I think

[sage berry]

I hope

[split mortar]

It can fly like in the fight I think

Just far far slower then the others

[sage berry]

It seems to fly fast just turn slow

Relatively slow

[real silo]

I don't think the laser works very well as a launch mechanism

[frank dune]

hello everyone

are fish canon?

[real silo]

The object would vaporise before getting to a reasonable speed

[sage berry]

Hmmm

[frank dune]

basic and quest ones

[real silo]

Basic yes quest idk

[sage berry]

Im trying to find the most destructive thing the bosses in general could do…

I mean DoG can certainly fly

scal can boil a sea

That's pretty destructive

Storm weaver can prob make a tornado or something

[wheat walrus]

storm weaver weaves storms

[sage berry]

Yes

Tornados are storms:..

[real silo]

No they aren't...

[sage berry]

I’d call one a storm

At least the result of one

So I suspect it can do that much

[wheat walrus]

in this case I meant big storm clouds

the ones that cause rains

:3

like

the ones that cover entire places and alltat

[hoary berry]

i'm not sure how i want to handle the individual entries for the attunements

i think i'll keep them mostly the same for the five attunements that BBB also has?

maybe i'll change some more beyond the first sentences, idk

actually i'll need to completely rewrite decay's retort

since BBB's entry for it doesn't make sense for the regular biome blade

also what is up with gesture for the drowned
