I can’t live without this

#

True

stark basalt
#

is the witch doctor related to the profaned gaurdians? Because she just said something along the lines of "I wonder what my relatives are doing, last time I checked they were too busy praising the Sun, I think."

pliant ruin
#

Profaned things arent related to the sun

#

old lore

split mortar
gritty kraken
#

Praising sun underground sound right

split mortar
#

Too many bees in the jungle or something and allergy’s

real silo
#

the sun's heat gives life to plants
plants get eaten by animals
animals give off heat
animal heat is sun heat

#

jungle is full of both plants and animals

#

it all makes sense

faint plank
#

wouldnt the sun heat just be mana in a way

PL =/= mana iirc

Random thing

#

Do we know if Cryonic is cold to the touch?

untold oracle
#

I mean I highly assume it is

#

Why would it not be

light linden
#

So I'm trying to cover my bases

frozen zodiac
light linden
#

Ngl though

#

I wonder what the melting point for Cryonic is

#

If it even can be melted

random mulch
#

life alloy is made by simply putting the 3 bars on top of eachother and dropping an anvil on it clueless

light linden
#

I mean

#

2 of the 3 ores are magical

#

I'm not sure how forging magical metals works

#

Hell I wonder if Scoria is hot enough to melt the Cryonic

random mulch
#

scoria using perennial as fuel to melt cryonic

light linden
#

It's possible

#

Actually

#

I wonder if Cryonic has a low melting point in general

split mortar
#

We melt the Cryonic into bars tbf

light linden
#

Since it's supposed to be tied to cryomancy

untold oracle
split mortar
#

Is scoria hotter then hellstone though

light linden
#

That might mean the difficulty in forging with Cryonic isn't finding a hot enough fire but controlling the temperature well enough

light linden
#

Scoria can cause explosions iirc

#

I have a question: Is Calamitas's surname "Cadmia"? I learned recently that in alchemy, there's five types of cadmia(Latin for cadmium) including one called "calamitis" that would form around iron stirring rods

split mortar
#

Calamitas isn’t her true name it’s just a monicker and we don’t know her true name

Though perhaps it is but I doubt we will ever know

bronze tulip
#

Ah yes, the Brimstone Bitch won't tell even the Gods her name smh

random mulch
#

what do the gods even have to do with this

bronze tulip
#

I meant the devs but yeah good point 🤔

#

We need to find her true name though

split mortar
#

Cal npcs will get a dialogue system in the next major update so if not then, probably won’t

#

Flood the suggestion gates! This is might be our only chance to get some lore answered! /j

But it would be fun fun to figure out, yeah?

#

We know nothing of yharim before he fell in lava other then he was destined to become god king and refused

glacial rampart
#

clearly azafurians were given 6 letter first names and 6 letter last names

#

Then grab someone else’s headcanon and run with it when you see one you like

bronze tulip
#

I'm not active in this community man, so I got nothing other than the obvious misspelled Latin names I could go with...

glacial rampart
bronze tulip
#

After many a flowcharting, I've come to the conclusion that Azafurian is off-brand Latin, and that Calamitas is Cadamya Reylgho

#

And now that I have a base to build on, time to learn more Latin and build on this

calm patio

#

Who obtained the auric souls of Gluttony and Sacrifice?

#

Also what dragon did Tyrian get the soul from?

deft vessel

cosmic zenith
#

Afaik

#

Yes, it was the soul of Death

cosmic zenith
#

You know
I came up with some Azafurian nicknames for the Cascade addon a while back
It's not an official stance on the matter, but I personally went with a mix of Latin and Spanish inspirations

#

Following "Azafure" being a Spanish-inspired name, and Latin being a popular language for spells in writing

#

1️⃣ Zoticus (meaning "lively")
2️⃣ Rufantes (from "rufus", "red-haired")
3️⃣ Ruffanos (from "rufus", "red-haired")
4️⃣ Cinnados (from Cinnabar, a red mineral)
5️⃣ Vitanna (from "vita", "life")

#

It's about finding a balance between inspirations/symbolism, readability and context

#

It helps that my native language stems from Latin, so making names with it as inspiration is pretty intuitive

glacial rampart

hmmmstuck,,,

frail hearth
#

do the other gods have sigils like xeroc does?

frail hearth
pliant ruin
#

it's the primordial light sigil

frail hearth
#

aaaaa ok :0

#

is there like another force like the primordial light that would have one or is it a bit of a special case?

#

like can gods just do that with their respective auric souls

pliant ruin
#

primordial light in of itself isn't tied to xeroc at a fundamental level, it already existed prior and will still exist after him, so it isn't really smth directly associated with gods

#

nothing stopping other thingies from having sigils too though, would be surprised if large factions like the profaned cultists or the onyx kinsmen didn't have something of the sorts

frail hearth
#

yeyea tha's where my brain's going HypeKitty

#

some sorta magical glowey symbol type gender to show like affiliation

wheat walrus
frail hearth
#

they nommed the dragon of light soul right?

#

so like maybe each dragon of X has a sigil associated with their respective thing.

#

...not to bring it back to homestuck x_x;

wheat walrus
#

Homestuck when shelterfree

frail hearth
#

that's a good question.

#

been meaning to catch up with homestuck^2... but things have sorta been rocky since mid-act 6 for that story >_>;

ruby heart
#

the frost dragon thing is real

#

and i consulted with the writters and other developers before talking about it (ozzatron, rebbeca, venus etc)

#

it was just cei being confused

frail hearth
#

frost dragon you say? Pikathink

ruby heart
#

mega mammoth

frail hearth
#

that's another thing like do we have a list anywhere of like confirmed dragons?

ruby heart
#

i never said he created the tundra too, idk who decided on that

#

🥹

frail hearth
#

the tundra was permafrost right?

ruby heart
#

and the curse i explicitely said is more of a what if, urban legend due to the pigrons and fishrons being so diferent from him

frail hearth
#

i vaugely remember reading that in the lore doc yesterady

ruby heart
#

but it will be more explored on my addon (which isnt part of calamity lore)

dusk laurel
#

Perma just enhanced the state it was already in

frail hearth
#

ahh right

#

the document's dense. ;0;

#

I was skimming it yesterday for silva stuff

pliant ruin
#

idk if u dev people do already but

#

i recommend always discussing things in text chats openly

dusk laurel
pliant ruin
#

cuz i can confirm discussing them in vcs is a formula for disaster

frail hearth
#

so like... since yharon can come back to life, and silva's heavily implied to not have technically died,

#

how does one kill a dragon of death?

#

or like was it dead to start with?

pliant ruin
#

stabbing it with a large stick

frail hearth
dusk laurel
#

The death dragon had a death aura

frail hearth
#

maybe it's more a reaper figure who ussured things to the afterlife rather than like being the guy who's power is death

dusk laurel
#

You had to attack from afar

frail hearth
#

why is my brain going to princess mononoke?

#

does the death dragon kinda work like the forest spirit once it was beheaded?

tall delta
tall delta
#

death dragon just stinks really bad

frail hearth
#

aw man that's a lil lame ;0;

dusk laurel
#

The domains of auric souls are just things that the dragons can control

frail hearth
#

so why dosen't the death dragon just like

#

take a bath or something pout

#

get rid of it's death aura that kills people

dusk laurel
#

It couldn't help it

frail hearth
#

that's gotta suck. ;0;

#

imagine not being able to go to the sick as dragon function because going would kill everyone

pliant ruin
#

being a reaper figure wouldn't work well because dragons aren't really fundamental parts of existence

#

they're just really strong

frail hearth
#

ah i see

#

would be cool tho HypeKitty

dusk laurel
#

Elementals are just that

#

Unfortunately for you, there is no death elemental

#

Only Silva

pliant ruin
#

evil silva be like

frail hearth
#

i wonder if like part of her's still concious

ruby heart
#

i hardly talk about stuff in vc

pliant ruin

trhat's good 2 hear

dusk laurel

YuH

ruby heart
#

i just cant do a @ everyone

pliant ruin
#

i hoped that was the case but ive heard passing mentions of stuff being discussed in vc before so i figured it was worth saying

ruby heart
#

for every concept i make in dev server

#

i talk with the active users

sinful adder
#

Silva is completely alive, just weakened

#

Well, her body is also destroyed

#

But elementals can just make new bodies

frail hearth
#

that's what i'm sayin

pliant ruin
#

silva will come back in likwe idk 30 years or something

#

i made that number up dont take it as anything

frail hearth
#

like her body was destroyed, but like were her memories in her brain that was also destoryed or can she remember stuff cussa dragon magic?

light linden
#

Y'all think silva would be mad at us for looting the abyss?

pliant ruin
#

well since her soul is still intact then i imagine probably

pliant ruin
#

She explicitly let us do it so probably not

#

Would be kinda hypocritical if she did

tall delta
#

the evil elemental theory

frail hearth
#

what was silva the elemental of again?

sinful adder
#

She can remember things just fine because she's magic and her memories aren't in a physical brain

dusk laurel
#

The thought of Silva being really annoying to the other elementals is still a funny thought to me

frail hearth
#

sorry i forgot ;0;

light linden
tall delta
frail hearth
#

...arne't all of them nature themed? >_>;

tall delta
#

no

pliant ruin
#

fire, earth, wind, water, nature

frail hearth
#

or is she more like greenery nature than like nature in general nature?

tall delta
#

nature in like plants

frail hearth
#

yeyea that makes sense :0

dusk laurel
#

She couldn't handle living with Silva again

frail hearth
#

it's a lil silly yea PikaGiggle

Exo shitter

frozen zodiac
#

why did you have to say this

sinful adder
#

Skibidi exo toilet

#

It's canon because of that one time Draedon was on Twitter

light linden
#

been wondering

#

is exotic resonance hot?

#

or is it just extremely radioactive?

sinful adder
#

Things that are extremely radioactive also become hot

#

Basically all forms of energy moving in any way produces heat as a byproduct

#

So I think we can assume exotic Resonance is hot

stoic gulch
#

Are there more elementals then the in game ones and Silva

split mortar
#

There’s only the ones we come across as far as I know

#

Though sand and cloud are in many bodies so that counts?

stoic gulch
#

Ah

#

Thank you for the info at least

light linden
#

Ngl the more and more I think about metals that are tied to a specific element the more my brain hurts

#

Like how the hell do you melt something that is made of lava

random mulch
#

lava is just liquid rock like how water is just liquid ice, if something is made of lava it's made of rock

light linden
#

And would Cryonic be harder or easier to melt because it's naturally cold?

stoic gulch
#

Or I’m wrong and I should go to the eels

sinful adder
light linden
#

Is Auric a good conductor of electricity or would the lightning emanating from it interfere with it?

sinful adder
#

I think it would be a good conductor

stoic gulch
#

Is there stuff about magic in the lore doc

light linden
stoic gulch
#

Idk if that is the word but yeah

#

Oh yeah

#

:((

random mulch
#

maybe the thing that makes hellstone special keeps it from liquefying and the pieces you break off while mining immediately melt

stoic gulch
light linden
#

We've only seen (to my knowledge) two confirmed examples of Auric and they're both related to Yharon

#

Would the element change based on the soul that worked it?

Would it be cool to generate barriers of auric voltage that rejects all incoming projectiles…

xeroc and zeratros

untold oracle
#

Oh

#

Yeah

hoary berry
#

because unless xeroc does turn out to be an utter piece of shit (doubtful) i will not be convinced that xeroc wasn't at least a little bit heartbroken over their ascension

untold oracle
#

I still think they both agreed that the ritual is the only way to save the domain

hoary berry
#

i'm of the belief that it was an agreed upon thing, but i'm don't think either of them were at all pleased by the fact that it was deemed necessary

hoary berry
# trim edge could zeratros have expected everyone copying xeroc leading to the dragon genoci...

this is a bit dark, but even if zeratros was fully aware of what might follow xeroc's ascension (the genocide)...
the world was undeniably at risk without zeratros being able to defend it—even with him, in fact, as demonstrated by the moon lord
and between the dragons being killed and the entire world falling to another external threat
i think the former, no matter how heartbreaking, is the better ending, because it enables xeroc to protect everyone else
but yeah zeratros probably couldn't have really been certain that shit would go down as it did

split mortar
#

New device and autocorrect still beating my ass

#

Zeratros should have just used the sun smh my head

hoary berry
#

i wonder how silva's control of life (whatever that actually entails) from being an elemental would have been affected if she didn't get a perfect ascension and the domain changed

how do you classify something as a false god

yeah it isn't really a proper classification

it's just

Okay so if the Corruption and Crimson are from a multitude of evil gods being slain and not taken care of properly does that mean the Hallow was created a similar way?

woven sparrow
#

Does that also mean those gods were slain where the Hallow appears or does the newly freed essence just go wherever

untold oracle
#

Oh wait I read the question wrong
I think the essence just goes wherever

woven sparrow

Gooottt it

#

Is the essence of the evil biomes corrupting the essence that creates the Hallow or is there another reason everything wants to kill us there

It's kinda funny to think abt like

stoic gulch

But if you think of a dragon do you think of a western dragon or an eastern (the original) dragon

pliant ruin
#

where do u draw the line

#

beetween reptilian monster and dragojn

stoic gulch
#

A drake is a dragon without wings

#

So big lizard

spare pier
#

I think any reptilian monster can be a dragon

stoic gulch

But not every reptilian monster is a dragon

pliant ruin

it rly is just up to the author of the setting at the end of the day

Dragons are
Lizard like (optional)
Flying (optional)

makes me want to write a classic fantasy setting...

Like, ok if you wanted you could say Godzilla is a dragon

split mortar

It’s a bipedal drake

pliant ruin
#

Personally i dont consider hydras to be dragons generally speaking

stoic gulch
pliant ruin
#

But that's just my view on things

spare pier
#

Point is, if it even barely resembles a reptile

spare pier
#

It can be a dragon

stoic gulch
#

Megidora is a dragon

There's not really a objective answer to what is and what isn't a dragon bc its a fantasy animal and u can make whatever definition u want for it

#

I've always wanted to make some sort of classic fantrasy setting but i have no idea what i'd do with it so it's just gonna stay on the backburner for now

#

Plus i already have a massive contemporary fantasy setting to work on so i won't be making any new projects for uh

#

a while.

stoic gulch
#

I want moss cretins and snail dragons for starters

spare pier
#

I have an idea personally

#

God goes fucking insane and brings about the apocalypse

#

And then two guys form a party and go kill God

dusk laurel

#

One being your traditional fantasy protagonist

#

The other being a woman who can copy any skill if she sees it even once

The other being a woman

Can she beat goku tho?

spare pier
#

This is kinda half the point of the story where as time goes on her goal and the guy's goal drift apart

#

She wants to replace God

#

He wants to kill him and leave no one in place

stoic gulch
#

I should write story

spare pier
#

So, right before fighting God

#

They fight between each other

#

And she dies

dusk laurel

#

How could she even lose if she can copy abilities

spare pier
#

And then the guy fights God and things happen I don't want to talk much about what I'm doing in that story

stoic gulch
#

Does the guy just have pure skill

mighty zenith
dusk laurel
split mortar
spare pier
#

She can copy spells

stoic gulch
spare pier
#

I'm probably also making so she can only copy an ability once

#

But since she's also really strong she can just make it stronger

#

Which is part of the story since I'm writing this without a visual medium

stoic gulch
spare pier
#

I can't really put too much emphasis on fighting

#

So my goal was to make all of her fights end in one blow

stoic gulch
#

Yeah too much of that and it’s boring

#

(Says a dragon ball fan)

spare pier
#

Either she wins, or she loses in one attack

#

Anyways go back on topic

Do dragons in calamity have hollow bones or do they use magic to fly

Or neither, or both

#

Their biology complements their physical abilities, but they're definitely magically enhanced

#

In fact, I think part of the changes offshoots undergo over time is to adapt their physiology to something that can support their abilities in the context of the decreasing magic in their lineage

#

No wonder Wyverns, offshoots who fly without wings, are notably still deeply attuned with their magic

light linden
#

oh wait a dev is here

#

can you answer me a question please?

cosmic zenith
#

👋

#

Sure!

pliant ruin
#

btw r basilisks being offshoots being killed

#

i remember hearing abt that

#

which is sad because i think they fit dragon of gluttony perfectly

#

rip my headcanon

cosmic zenith
light linden
#

is Auric naturally electrified or is that a result of us using Yharon's soul to work it?

pliant ruin
#

Basilisks don't really have any remarkable magical traits, they're highly predatory, fat, low-to-the-ground lizard things, i feel like they could fit really well

cosmic zenith
#

I don't care much either way - them being offshoots shows an otherwise unexplored side of "mundane offshoots", but they're really out of nowhere and don't add much to the offshoot roster

pliant ruin
#

Like i don't think there's literally any notable traits for basilisks other than "They fat and hungry" that we know of

#

So like

light linden
#

I kinda went on a rant at 4am last night about magic metals being confusing and speculated about Auric only being electrified because we used Yharon's soul to work it

cosmic zenith
#

I'd love to make a book exploring offshoots that exist outside the region the game takes place in

dusk laurel
cosmic zenith
cosmic zenith
#

(Rebecca and I)

#

Being offshoots just takes a bit of the whimsy away from them in our opinion

#

It's kinda lame if every cool creature is an offshoot

#

And makes more mundane creatures seem invariably less cool

cosmic zenith
cosmic zenith
#

Because I know that, take as much time as needed, I can and will make them more interesting than that

#

The Deadly Sins are a particularly interesting bunch of concepts to work with and "embody"

light linden
#

I'm personally wondering what type of god an auric soul of sloth and wrath would create

hoary cape
#

Deadly sins

#

Hmmmm

cosmic zenith
#

And among them, Gluttony is one of the most... diverse? As in, there are many ways in which you can explore Gluttony as a concept

light linden
#

if we didn't know that providence's soul was from the dragon of flame I'd say she got it from wrath tbh

hoary cape
#

Gluttony doesn't just have to be about food/drinks

#

Which is neat

cosmic zenith
hoary cape
#

Sloth becomes god of slowness

cosmic zenith
#

Yeah
Gluttony, in a broader perspective, is overindulgence

split mortar
#

Then what’s greed

#

Overindulgence but money?

pliant ruin
#

Greed and Gluttony are often seen as really similar

#

it's hard to make them particularly different from eachother since their basis is roughly the same

spring helm
#

god of eepy

pliant ruin
#

One way to do it is to make greed uh

hoary cape
#

Greed is the want gluttony is actually going through with it and overindulging

spring helm
#

cheese the goddess of eep

pliant ruin
#

less of taking more than you need and more of not sharing with those that need it more

pliant ruin
light linden
#

my guess for wrath would be either a god of anger or a god of fire

pliant ruin
#

anger and wrath are basically the same thing so i doubt it

spring helm
#

it's a little hard to differentiate gluttony, lust, and greed sometimes since they're all based on extreme desire

pliant ruin
#

it's like going fomr a dragon of rock to a god of stone

light linden
#

still wonder what providence's domain is

pliant ruin
hoary cape
#

Dragon of rock becomes god of smooth brain

#

Because dumb as a rock

pliant ruin
#

Lust is a overwhelming desire

cosmic zenith
#

Greed is a more human concept
I would say it's more tied to overexploration, as in, a toxic desire to amass property at the costs of others

#

I feel like a Dragon of Greed would enslave its offshoot to steal precious materials for its hoard

pliant ruin
#

Often times a character that is meant to have the concept of lust as part of their narrative does things they don't want to do but cave in due to a immense, overwhelming desire

#

Vampires are a classic concept

spring helm
#

so like the archtypical western dragon

cosmic zenith
#

Of course, the deadly sins have some overlap

cosmic zenith
#

But it would use some western dragon traits

spring helm
#

is there a dragon of dragons

light linden
#

I could see an auric soul of envy creating either a god of ambition or a god of assassination

pliant ruin
#

Lust is actually my favorite of the sins to write on tbh

Helluva Boss/Hazbin Hotel has an interesting take on Sloth that kinda opened my eyes to the possibilities

TLDR ||the Sin of Sloth, Belphegor, is a possibly narcoleptic goat lady - so she's so fucking eepy||

#

It's so diferent from what I would imagine Sloth to be

spring helm
#

stip that sounds like just the regular take

pliant ruin
#

it does

#

to be honest

light linden
#

it's exactly what I imagine sloth to be

pliant ruin
#

My personal favorite interpretation of sloth is one that's not tired or lazy, but inactive

spare pier
#

That's the most generic take on Sloth ever ngl

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

light linden
#

personally I like the slaking type of sloth take

pliant ruin
#

Someone who sees negative things happening around them

#

Someone who knows they could help if they tried

#

But they just... don't

light linden
#

where it is immensely strong but really doesn't care enough to use it

cosmic zenith
#

Damn, so you guys don't picture Sloth as someone who's awake but intentionally apathetic and lazy?

split mortar
spare pier
cosmic zenith
#

I guess I'm the weird one then

spring helm
#

i picture sloth as someone who sleeps all the time

pliant ruin
#

For one reason or another, they let things fester even knowing they could help, perhaps due to some sort of nihilism

pliant ruin
#

Nihilism can be a great way to write sloth btw

#

Sans undertale is a character that represents the sin of sloth
