easier way of saying it

split mortar
#

Scrapped design that no longer can be implimentes

untold oracle
#

Yeah they’re scrapped designs that somehow made to the relics anyways
Yharon’s relic has a text something like "A glimpse into what will be" because it uses the future design Yharon will get

hoary cape
#

It was planned to be added when they made that relic

#

But then a bunch of those sprites got scrapped

worn roost
#

At the end of the underworld

split mortar
#

Crags?

worn roost
#

There's this more burnt red place

split mortar
#

The brimstone crags

gaunt sluice
#

hell yea

worn roost
split mortar
#

Yeah

worn roost
#

I didn't know but I figured out already what happen to ut

split mortar
#

Its the outskirts of the destriyed azafure city i think

worn roost
#

And why it looks to destroyed

gaunt sluice
#

worn roost

It's cuz of this brimstone monster right?

split mortar
gaunt sluice
#

fire lady and other fire lady

worn roost
split mortar
#

Scal tried to stop

Turns out being 11 isnt a good way ag stopping her

split mortar
gaunt sluice
#

as it turns out fighting fire with fire gains you absolutely nothing

worn roost
gaunt sluice
#

supreme calamitas

split mortar
#

Supreme witch calamitas

worn roost
dusk laurel
#

wires

worn roost
#

Another brimstone elemental?

#

But

gaunt sluice
#

worn roost
#

gaunt sluice
#

worn roost
#

Oh

worn roost
gaunt sluice
#

worn roost
#

Oh

gaunt sluice
#

she burned away an ocean once

mighty zenith
#

shes like the fourth strongest creature in the world

worn roost
mighty zenith
worn roost
#

Got it

pliant ruin
#

she sorta was manipulated into being a war criminal as a kid and then when she grew up she realized oh shit maybe we're the baddies and now isolates herself in some cave because shes kinda depressed over the entire assisting a genocidal lunatic thing

mighty zenith
#

no no she is cute

#

but shes also uhh

#

yeahh what cheese said

dusk laurel
#

Cave dweller

gaunt sluice
gaunt sluice
#

then you fight her and she gives up amd makes you build her a house'

worn roost
manic coral
#

a sea

split mortar
# worn roost And who's calamitas?

A human who somehow gained equal power of brimstone elemental when the elemental awoke, they tried stopping them from destroying the city but fire vs fire ends with just more destruction and azafure was destroyed

She joins yharim as a young teen and gets manipulated to destroy illmeris and more but breaks off shortly after being tild to kill her adoptive father (permafrost)

She fights us cause her trauma of yharim and her trhinking we are becoming yharim 2 causes her to not think rationally

worn roost
#

Sulfer

dusk laurel
#

No

manic coral
#

not an ocean

gaunt sluice
#

o alr

#

mb

manic coral
light linden
manic coral
#

it wouldnt be a sea anymore

dusk laurel
#

She burned a giant aquifer

manic coral
#

the water would be gone

split mortar
gaunt sluice
#

did the sunken sea ever reach the surface

mighty zenith
#

no

dusk laurel
#

No

manic coral
#

how would it the top is a downwards slope

mighty zenith
#

its always been underground

there just was more of it

light linden
#

ngl

split mortar
#

Yeah

light linden
#

I wonder where the antlions came from

gaunt sluice
worn roost
pliant ruin
#

the sulfur sea is just stinky because of industrial fumes coming from below

pliant ruin
#

the surface desert was still a desert

pliant ruin
#

and we see antlions in the surface

gaunt sluice
#

and draedon deciding it was a good nuclear trash can

pliant ruin
#

so i assume they just, had a big boom in population when they gained a larger range to inabhti

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

gaunt sluice
#

wait so is Cal's current power the original power of the Brimstone elemental and then brimmy dwindled or did Cal like harness it and then go through magical puberty

split mortar
manic coral
#

cal is currently stronger than brimmy in her prime was

gaunt sluice
#

oh alr cool

split mortar
#

Brimmy dont seem all that smart so thats fair

gaunt sluice
#

hoinestly

#

if I was a fire elemental

#

i'd probably be pissed at everything too

#

like, you're always too hot at night

#

when you're tryina frickin sleep

dusk laurel
#

👎

#

You need to get on the elemental grindset

mighty zenith
#

elemental grindset:
sleep
sleep
KILL
repeat

dusk laurel
#

TRUE

gaunt sluice
#

can you imagine that tho

#

just always feeling like you have a 2000 degree fever

split mortar
#

Bot got nuked

worn roost
#

What is up with this space place?

#

I was heading to the snow area

#

So i can get the cool whip

split mortar
#

Astral infection?

worn roost
#

It did had astral in its name of the enemys

#

So ig yea

split mortar
#

When stars are left too long the astral infection will form in them

Normally deus eats the stars before they can get infected but this time had eaten a infected star and got mind controlled, being forced to throw the infected star at the planet and guard the crater while the infection had infected the rest of the land

Stars in calamity are like meteors of raw mana that orbit the planet

worn roost
#

That's real cool

#

But now there's a problem

#

It completely took over the ice lands

#

So now I cant get the ice whip

split mortar
gaunt sluice
#

purifimication

#

wait

#

what are the lore implications of mana forming a weak consciousness from a dead star

split mortar
#

The universes haunted

gaunt sluice
#

fair enough

#

mage bacteria

keen vector
#

leviathan anahita doomed yuri

limpid saddle
#

what

#

That's a fish & a puddle shaped like a woman

#

do we even know what biological sex the leviathan is?

calm patio
#

what?

limpid saddle
#

Better question; does it even have one?

limpid saddle
limpid saddle
spring helm
#

it fits my narrative better if anahita and leviathan were both women, so they are

keen vector
#

i thought leviathan was canonically female but now i’m questioning

#

cause ider where i got that from…

limpid saddle
#

We don't even know if the mf's sentient

#

We have barely any information about the Leviathan

spring helm
limpid saddle
#

It is a creature shrouded in mystery

limpid saddle
spring helm
#

fish can be female

limpid saddle
keen vector
limpid saddle
stark basalt
#

hell yeah

limpid saddle
spring helm
limpid saddle
#

& even if they were, this is still the weirdest possible route to take in comprehending their relationship

#

Like all cursive, slanted level 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂

spring helm
#

ok you've convinced me

cloud ibex
cloud ibex
#

don't be weird thanks

limpid saddle
#

thanks for coming in saint

#

i really thought i was losing it for a second there

dusk laurel
light linden
sinful adder
#

nah, I ship it

#

its not like its any weirder than yharon x yharim

limpid saddle
#

i hate it here

cloud ibex
#

☹️

limpid saddle
#

you're all grade-a capital 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 & i hate you for it

sinful adder
#

I was about to say

#

I am in fact "freaky" so take whatever I say with a massive spoonfull of salt

#

seasalt, if you will

cloud ibex
#

both are weird!!!!! shut up!!!!!!!!

limpid saddle
sinful adder
#

I won't talk about it further, dw

#

...but I wanted it to be said

limpid saddle
dusk laurel
#

Rightful, divine punishment

spring helm
#

Is mana a physical thing

#

It must be right?

#

Stars are made from it

sinful adder
#

I think it is as physical as electricity

#

it is real in a tangible sense, but follows rules that do not match our intuition

limpid saddle
#

i dunno

sinful adder
#

I think it is like matter but not made of atoms

split mortar
sinful adder
#

uh

#

bad wording

#

I mean that it acts like matter as we know it, despite being fundamentally different

#

it can form a material that acts like a solid, liquid, or gas, but which lacks any underlying atoms as we know them

#

it could be seen as a fundamental force or property like electric charge, or it could be seen as something not quite like that

split mortar
#

Ah ok

high lynx
#

do the stars in calamity make gravity

split mortar
#

I imagine so

high lynx
#

then is is because they have mass or some other magic related reason

split mortar
#

Id imagine it has mass, a star caused a crater after all

high lynx
#

well that one was infected so it could have been the other thing that made the crater

#

but if it was the base star then mana has mass

manic coral
#

I mean normal fallen stars even cause an audible thump

high lynx
#

or at least can

split mortar
#

The astral infection is alao mana i think

But also fallen stars deal a lot if damage

split mortar
pastel gazelle
#

...I understand nobody likes biome spread but it is super weird that the Astral Infection, which corrupts everything it touches, with every piece of its lore being "look at how it can corrupt and infect and change even inanimate matter", does not spread.

high lynx
#

so is a mage heavier than a melee user

dusk laurel
#

The #1 predator of a king slime

#

Fallen stars

split mortar
dusk laurel
#

Mana conglomerates and contracts

split mortar
#

As all mana does

pastel gazelle
#

...huh.

split mortar
#

Mana shrinks

Astral is a mana

pastel gazelle
#

That said, it's not being left alone because it's full of animals which exist to spread the infection per their lore, and also wild animals might wander in.

high lynx
#

if you can hold mana (via mana stars and crystals) can somebody like draedon not use mana in his machines

#

wait theory

#

the player regains mana naturally

high lynx
#

do they get it from sunlight?

high lynx
split mortar
pastel gazelle
#

The text on the wulfrum prosthesis in particular makes it clear that "magic versus technology" isn't a dichotomy that meaningfully exists.

high lynx
split mortar
high lynx
#

so is primordial light just mana

#

or do stars create primordial light

dusk laurel
#

Specifically the sun

split mortar
#

We dunno
It could be its own massively stronger force or anither type of mana

split mortar
#

Just the sun

high lynx
#

then how does the terraria gain mana

split mortar
#

The sun is much larger and different to stars

high lynx
#

and why does star in a bottle increase

split mortar
light linden
#

kinda wonder if supernovas are a thing

dusk laurel
split mortar
light linden
#

I mean

high lynx
#

if i blew up a star would that count as a supernova

split mortar
#

Idk

dusk laurel
#

Nah

light linden
#

actually how the hell did complex elements come to exist

#

e.g. uranium and lead

#

they need supernovas

high lynx
#

is there uranium in calamity

split mortar
light linden
#

there's nuclear bombs

#

so likely

split mortar
#

-# gunk zero will drop a nuke

high lynx
#

well that just needs radiation and fission and stuff

#

theres other ways to do that than uranium

split mortar
#

Yeah and irl stars cant get past iron iirc

dusk laurel
#

I love iron cores

high lynx
#

and dragons dont exist irl actually

#

so...

#

i'd have to go to calamity to test any of these scientific theories

#

i wonder if the stuff you breath in calamity is even the same as air here

light linden
split mortar
light linden
#

usually yes

split mortar
#

Just that there wasnt enough for s black hole

dusk laurel
#

Neutron stars are stars, but they aren't normal

light linden
#

but I believe that there's one that supposedly formed as one on its own

#

at least I remember reading that a long time ago

high lynx
#

frankly i dont even know if the people in terraria are human

dusk laurel
#

Well uh

#

A lot of the characters are human

split mortar
#

-# then why things called terrarian?

high lynx
#

but not the same human as me

split mortar
#

Like the terrarian

Our character

high lynx
#

we'd have to cut one open and see if they have the same stuff inside

dusk laurel
#

The planet is called Terraria, you can just assume it's an overarching term for sapient species

split mortar
#

omg guys slime king is a terrarian

high lynx
#

well there are azafurians

dusk laurel
#

To the eels

#

Azafurians are human

high lynx
#

dure

#

sure

split mortar
#

Damn
Eel pit in 2025???

dusk laurel
#

Yes

split mortar
#

A rarity sadly

dusk laurel
#

Azafurians are just a different race

high lynx
#

well i dont have a terrarian to open up and compare biology to an irl human

split mortar
#

Well considering magic exists
I think cal having horns and still being human is fine

high lynx
#

so until then i cannot say i could even survive in terraria

spring helm
dusk laurel
#

Yes

split mortar
dusk laurel
#

It's literally in her description

split mortar
#

Bwaaa

magic epoch
#

how tf do you scale terrarian (as in town npc)

spring helm
#

The humanity of Azafurians is in a quantum superposition of being both human and not human and will remain so until in-game lore confirms which one it is

magic epoch
#

dies to fucking cacti balls

high lynx
#

do plants photosynthesize

magic epoch
#

🫸omfg🫷

spring helm
#

I think so, you can’t grow trees underground right?

split mortar
high lynx
#

gem trees

dusk laurel
magic epoch
split mortar
spring helm
#

Those ain’t regular trees, the got gem magic

high lynx
#

and do they photosynthisize whatever the sun puts out?

#

is the sun even hot

dusk laurel
#

Yes

split mortar
#

Well suns surface

high lynx
#

and i can sit in that stuff for a while

#

abyss is more dangerous

split mortar
#

.

#

Cei mentions it there

#

Anyways i go sleep bai

high lynx
#

wait wait wait

split mortar
high lynx
#

the sun orbits around the planets in calamity?

dusk laurel
#

Yes

#

It orbits Terraria

spring helm
#

Hasn’t it been said multiple times here that the sun used to be so hot that humans couldn’t live on the surface

#

And then Xeroc cooled it down a bit

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

split mortar
#

Also

dusk laurel
#

skim

high lynx
#

so sun does not generate gravity?

dusk laurel
#

Like

high lynx
#

or is the planet just more massive

split mortar
dusk laurel
#

What if the sun is just smaller

spring helm
#

The moon has it’s own gravity too but it still orbits the earth

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

high lynx
#

massive as in has more mass

#

i never said bigger

dusk laurel
#

Okay

#

Then yeah i can see that

split mortar
#

Well the planet does have more mass thus it is orbited by moon and sun

high lynx
#

now i wonder what the biggest star is

#

and if stars are generaly lighter than planets or just this one

split mortar
#

Many many stars orbit the planet

dusk laurel
#

I mean

split mortar
#

Since deus feasts on them

dusk laurel
#

You see stars fall from the sky at night all the time

#

And also the astral meteor

high lynx
#

mana must not weigh all that much

split mortar
#

Yeah it prob doesnt

high lynx
#

also why do fallen stars disappear in daytime?

#

gameplay mechanic?

spring helm
#

Do they orbit the planet or just exist in space close enough to be seen

spring helm
high lynx
#

seems like they orbit

spring helm
#

Why do you think they orbit

split mortar
split mortar
high lynx
#

^

spring helm
#

Isn’t that referring to the sun, not the stars

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

high lynx
#

so the sun is not a star?

dusk laurel
#

It's not the same

#

It's very different from what we know about both right now

spring helm
#

The sun emits primordial light

#

No other star does that

#

As far as we know

high lynx
#

the more i learn about terraria the more i realize why draedon doesnt care to leave

#

this is the most scientifically interesting place in the universe that we know of

#

i wonder what kind of creation stories ancient cultures had

spring helm
#

“This planet is so full of research opportunities, the wider cosmos must hold even greater potential.”

Builds telescope
Looks
Finds fucking nothing

“Guess I’ll stay here”

dusk laurel
#

So real

high lynx
#

if gods only existed after the draconic era, did no cultures ever get to believe in a god of creations? like one that made the universe

#

i wonder if draedon will give us a creation of the universe theory

#

like the big bang

#

and maybe a sun/star inquiry

spring helm
#

The dragons were right there

#

They probably knew how the world was born

high lynx
#

But what about the rest

spring helm
#

True

high lynx
#

I wonder if early humans regarded dragons as the creators of at least the planet

light linden
#

ngl

#

I kinda wonder what would happen if you put a lot of fallen stars into a body of water

sinful adder
high lynx
#

But did they believe in a creator?

sinful adder
#

The concept of a god came to mean a very specific thing, but ancient ideas of things that are gods as we know them existed

sinful adder
high lynx
#

Like did they think the elementals where the makers of their elements

sinful adder
#

Yeah we still don't know. Probably some did

#

Just like in real life, made up beliefs exist

light linden
#

guess who forgot about an item they have 181 of

dusk laurel
#

It happens to the best of us

light linden
#

also for reference

#

I meant a LOT of fallen stars

#

not a few

brave rune
#

can Draedon invent new slurs?

dusk laurel
calm patio
#

no

sinful adder
#

I'm sure they could

#

But wouldn't

real silo
#

You could answer basically any draedon question using these two sentences

dusk laurel
#

Hey ataxia

light linden
tidal tulip
#

"Computer. Fetch me my list of slurs."

real silo
#

er

#

I would never be loss of muscle control

dusk laurel
trim edge
#

wait nvm you said basically

real silo
#

He could

#

But he wouldn't

#

See it works for everything

Garbo the evil spreader

uneven grove
#

How many auric dragons are there is there somewhere I could find and also every auric dragon name and type

uneven grove
pliant ruin

When it comes to the ones we know about
-Yharon, Dragon of Rebirth
-Zeratros, King of Dragons and Dragon of Primordial Light
-Vetrasyl, Dragon of Storms
-Dragon of Flame
-Dragon of Gluttony
-Dragon of Gravity
-Dragon of Frost
-Dragon of Life
-Dragon of Death

untold oracle
pliant ruin
#

I think those are all, i might be forgetting some

#

Yeh, Yharon is the only remaining one

uneven grove
#

Are there multiple dragons of same type or only 1 dragon could be of 1 type

pliant ruin
#

Every dragon's domain is unique to tiself

#

Itself*

uneven grove
#

Ah

pliant ruin
#

There aren't multiple dragon of rebirths per example, just Yharon

uneven grove
#

Now I understand

stoic gulch
#

can someone send the xeroc pre ascended form

#

the new one

#

oh yeah no image perms XD

jovial stream
#

Is Yharim as evil as he was in the lore pre-rework? His lore has changed but as far as I can tell the attitude towards him hasn’t, even though as far as I’m aware he hasn’t done all the same things that MADE him the Tyrant in the old lore

#

Am I missing something?

untold oracle
thick slate
#

womp

untold oracle
#

Essentially killed gods and their followers indiscriminately without caring about their intentions, justifying it all with hearsay told by The Most Biased Dragon Ever

mighty zenith
#

the main thing that changed is Yharim has more of a motive for his actions

untold oracle
#

The crusade killed 200–300 mil people, ~15–20% of the world population

mighty zenith
#

he's still super fucked up but he's also manipulative

#

basically he went from a warmongerer to a politician

untold oracle
#

He now at least had an agenda instead of being edgy and evil

thick slate
#

genghis khan type numbers

#

atleast yharim slightly reduced climate change

untold oracle
#

Maaan the mongols were actually goated

#

They conquered half of the known world and disappeared all within 150 years

thick slate
#

idk about goated

#

kinda like mean

#

but yea

#

british empire was goated !

faint plank
#

yharim i remember you are genocides

thick slate
#

truee

shrewd geyser
#

***I know what you are ***

jovial stream
mighty zenith
#

probably because he's much more subtle about all the attrocities

untold oracle
jovial stream
#

Maybe because it’s more crusades than brutal subjugation

mighty zenith
#

yeah didnt he like

#

want world domination in old lore or whatever

#

i genuinely dont remember what his goal was

untold oracle
jovial stream
untold oracle
jovial stream
#

He wasn’t much more edgy then than he is now

mighty zenith
#

ehhh hard to say honestly

jovial stream
#

Just more of a fleshed out person than a one dimensional conqueror

mighty zenith
#

he was a much bigger asshole

#

like his conflict with Amidias was made out of a temper tantrum basically

jovial stream
#

Yeah I think that’s what’s tripping me up honestly

#

They didn’t bow so he had Calamitas scorch them all alive

untold oracle
mighty zenith
#

something like that

jovial stream
untold oracle
#

Calamity was such an edgefest back then I’m happy they’re fixing it 😭

jovial stream
#

Eh I never really thought so. I’ve always loved the lore

#

New lore way better though

mighty zenith
#

Tbh besides some unnecessary stuff like Calamitas' village getting fucking CRUCIFIED

#

old lore wasnt that edgy

untold oracle
mighty zenith
#

but the constant inclusion of concepts that get dropped a few sentences later was super annoying

#

things just sorta... happened

#

because they sounded cool

#

and then couldnt be brought up in a way that makes sense later

mighty zenith
#

a majority of bosses for instance are direct byproducts of Yharim's bullshit

#

or were affected by his bullshit

faint plank
#

pbg 💔

jovial stream
latent bolt
#

I bet the plaguebringer goliath in the new lore was the size of a normal hornet when it was released from containment after yharim blew a hole in draedon's lab

jovial stream
mighty zenith
#

so uh
i dont think so

mighty zenith
#

new lore yharim wants to indoctrinate them to his side

#

gain a successor to his ideology

#

old lore yharim didnt really give a shit

jovial stream
#

Wait really? I did not pick up on that at all

mighty zenith
#

he was much more apathetic and a dickhead

latent bolt
#

i did pick up on the apathy and depression

jovial stream
#

It sounded more to me like he was regretful of all he did

mighty zenith
#

a big thing is the only times he shows regret over his actions is when those actions ended up with him losing allies

#

not once does he regret the lives of innocent people the crusade took

#

he also hides info that would paint his hatred towards gods in a negative light

#

isnt it weird how he completely ignores the hallow?

#

well, thats because its existence implies the existence of benevolent gods

#

(although i wont blame you for not picking up on this because im pretty sure its not mentioned in-game yet)

jovial stream
mighty zenith
#

you could say that yes

#

but have you considered the idea that not all dragons were good?

#

maybe some were rampaging and killing people

#

like the dragon of flame

jovial stream
#

No I had not considered that

mighty zenith
#

and absorbing its soul would make sure it doesnt come back to do all that again

#

maybe some dragons gave their souls up willingly

#

i wont deny that there were evil gods of course

#

but the issue with yharim is he sees gods and dragons in black and white

#

evil vs good with no exceptions

#

they took the soul of a dragon and therefore deserve death

latent bolt
#

both dragons and gods had good and evil wedragud

jovial stream
#

I was under the assumption that dragons were guardians of nature, of a sort

mighty zenith
#

again, i dont blame you

#

yharim really wants to push that idea into your head

#

which is super ironic considering one of these dragons literally wants to kill you

#

this dragon has also watched and supported mass genocide

#

and destruction of nature

jovial stream
#

Oh

#

Had not thought of it in that way

#

Why does Yharon want to kill us? Also didn’t he abandon Yharim?

cloud ibex
#

not really abandoned

mighty zenith
#

he wants to kill us because he wants to protect yharim

#

also yeah not abandoned

cloud ibex
#

more like went out on his own to deal with you before you reach yharim

mighty zenith
#

rather went on a mission he probably wouldnt come back from

jovial stream
#

Oh is that what that line meant

mighty zenith
frigid sage
#

Yharon is mean

split mortar
#

Yeah yharon knew they could have died and so bid yharim farewell incase that was the case iirc

Yharim will die in under a decade from when yharon dies since yharim will die of old age before yharon can rebirth (a decade long process)

frigid sage
#

The enemy ascended beyond your control

latent bolt
#

holup, would yharon's domain have been a factor into how yharim lived so long

jovial stream
frigid sage
#

Roar of the Jungle Dragon is canon so use those lyrics to tell the lore

split mortar
gritty kraken
#

Yharim profited off Yharon plushies so he left him

jovial stream
#

So I’ve picked up from this chat that when a person becomes a god they don’t always have the same domain of the dragon whose soul they absorbed. Does that mean that the god is inherently weaker than the dragon was?

frigid sage
#

No

cloud ibex
#

no

#

xeroc is far stronger than zeratros

frigid sage
#

Why?

split mortar
cloud ibex
#

but they got a perfect ascension, something nobody other than silva did

frigid sage
#

Ah

cloud ibex
#

they have also been training ever since their ascension, something most other gods to my knowledge didn't really do

split mortar
# frigid sage Why?

Strongest human at the time
Strongest dragon ever
Best ascension possible

Yeah id say xeroc is minimum like twice as strong as zeratros after ascending and has only gotten stronger since

jovial stream
#

What even is Xeroc the god of?

mighty zenith
#

theres also slime god
who i believe is stronger than the dragon of gluttony

iirc zeratros has been said to equal yharim

mighty zenith
#

which is basically sunlight

cloud ibex
#

afaik it's been said that most others kinda just took whatever state they were in immediately post ascension as their peak - or at most didn't take their training nearly as far as xeroc did

jovial stream
#

Isn’t that the same as Zeratros?

mighty zenith
#

correct

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

they had a perfect ascension

jovial stream
#

Ohhhh ok

mighty zenith
#

meaning the domain stayed the same

#

Silva did too and they are the only two gods with a perfect ascension

jovial stream
#

So it says in the lore somewhere that the stars are made of mana, right?

spring helm
#

that we know of

#

Could Xeroc post ascension have defeated Fovos? This is purely a power scaling question

split mortar
#

The astral meteor is a infected star

jovial stream
#

Does that mean then that Xeroc is the god of magic?

mighty zenith
#

but in their current state yea

frigid sage
#

Ok

split mortar
jovial stream
#

what

split mortar
#

The sun is different to stars in calamity

frigid sage
#

So the dragons were not actually that powerful?

mighty zenith
#

its a messy topic tbh
the sun in cal is weird

What is it then if not a star?

The sun specifically is the only source of PL

#

What is the canon mode?

mighty zenith
#

we dont know a lot about the world still

jovial stream
#

Oh ok

split mortar
#

Primordial light is specifically sunlight

It might be made of primordial light aswell but eh not confirmed iirc

mighty zenith
frigid sage
#

Ok

mighty zenith
#

but theres
not really a canon mode

#

since the terrarian can be whatever you want

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

thats just the default basically

jovial stream
#

Also, what is Silvia’s deal? I don’t know much about her in the new lore

split mortar
#

Cant post the terrarian is your oc imagecalsad

mighty zenith
#

good

#

😊

frigid sage
#

So pretty much the dragons on average were as strong as PBG?

latent bolt
mighty zenith
latent bolt
#

At least thats what the lore is implying here

frigid sage
#

So an army of like 50-100 PBGs versus an Eldritch Horror

#

But all with unique powers

#

That would help

split mortar
# jovial stream Also, what is Silvia’s deal? I don’t know much about her in the new lore

Elemental of nature AND goddess of life, she is the only other god to have perfect ascended

She got brutalised into a literal goo by yharim and is slowly regenerating in the abyss and her prescence has allowed bigger life to flourish

She has blessed brealor who along with his BF statis nearly killed yharim
She also blessed jared (primordial wyrm) hence why its post scal strong

#

She is the second strongest not xeroc god we know of iirc

spring helm
cloud ibex
#

do note that iirc the main thing that kept ML from being nuked by the dragons was that he simply refused to die

frigid sage
#

Death lasers

jovial stream
#

She’s an elemental AND a god?

spring helm
#

yes

mighty zenith
#

yup

cloud ibex
#

the tongue he uses on you that lifesteals? yeah he used that on the dragons too

seemingly any sapient life form can ascend so long as they can perform the ritual

#

didnt stop yharim from turning her into goop though

split mortar
#

Yeah

jovial stream
#

Oh. Is she gonna basically reform at some point?

split mortar
#

Yeah

frigid sage
#

Planty mush is Silva goop?

dusk laurel
#

Yharim will die before she reforms

split mortar
frigid sage
#

And there is infinite from fishing

jovial stream
#

Wasn’t it stated somewhere that all the elementals were evil?

mighty zenith
#

she got brutalized and tossed at the bottom of the abyss, safe to say itll take a while to get out

dusk laurel
mighty zenith
#

just
really pushing their element

dusk laurel
#

The elementals are manifestations of the world

mighty zenith
#

yharim hates elementals thanks to brimmy fucking up azafure

dusk laurel
#

Water, air, heat, earth and nature

#

Also yeah the Brimmy incident

split mortar
spring helm
#

silva's corpse is in the bottom of the abyss

jovial stream
#

Right. I guess it can’t be that harmful to want to spread life and nature around

spring helm
#

the planty mush is plantgrowth that grew due to her influence

mighty zenith
#

filling the world with water tho...

#

yeah thats more of a problem

just ask the hoenn region

To kill Silva you destroy all life

jovial stream
#

Oh ok

mighty zenith
#

apparently its possible for elementals to beef too, since anahita got pushed out from the abyss by silva

#

theyre still sentient in some ways

#

like animals basically

frigid sage
#

So Draedon is the only person to be able to kill Silva

jovial stream
#

Why was Silva able to do a perfect ascension?

dusk laurel
#

We don't exactly know

We all would like to know

dusk laurel

k kw

uou

split mortar
dusk laurel
#

👎

dusk laurel
#

It's very likely the Terminus was used for perfectly ascending

#

And possibly the life dragon willingly letting their soul be absorbed by Silva

mighty zenith
#

yeah that could have something to do with it as well, since theres a possibility of zeratros doing the same

dusk laurel
#

Yep

split mortar
#

Terminus and willingly giving soul is required for perfect ascension in my headcanon

latent bolt

I like to imagine that Silva and the Life dragon were good friends

what if Draedon learned from his mistakes with the cloning attempts of Calamitas and Yharon and decided to pull a Dr.Gero and create a version of Perfect Cell with the DNA of the Strongest Calamity bosses (something that he would probably do)

spare pier
#

He never cloned Yharon in new lore and actually his clone of Calamitas is really fucking good

#

The problem is that he can't clone Calamitas' power

split mortar
spare pier
#

In my opinion a far better option because then Draedon doesn't feel grossly incompetent HDfailure

split mortar
#

Calclone was a success at being a clone

Problem is cal is basically a warlock and her power doesnt come to her naturally

spare pier
#

Draedon being really fucking bad at cloning in old lore was always wack to me

#

Specially because the Plague being nanomachines has always been thing

#

Bro is good enough in bio-engineering to make the Plague but not to clone things, which was one of the earliest achievements in bio-engineering

They all get power from things not carried by genetics

Ceaseless Void is kind of useless to Draedon in terms of technological development since all the weaponry and defences on it were made by the Dragon Cult, and he has no need to siphon the energy from it since he has Exo Prisms

clonign somebody just

doesnt work well

becuase they're only closing the person biologically

#

none of their experiences or pwoers they gained or training

split mortar
#

And most of the bosses that are organic and could be trained to that level hen cloned

Are distortion guys and thus inherently have different biology to the point youre basically at step 1 again

#

Hell yharim clone wouldnt be attuned so i doubt any oerfect training could allow fir a clone yharim to rival the alive yharim

The key thing is that many people could become as strong as yharim, if only they had enough determination

I doubt yharim is completely normal

He is attuned to a auric dragon after all

But then, Terrarian arrived; "I am you, Fabsol."

Fabsol began to cry, running away and avoiding his fate as the sigmatic energy restored and stabilized platonic concepts of the universe.

As the Terrarian kept approaching Fabsol, he kept talking to him.
"You could've been anyone and anything Fabsol, but you chose to be the creator of Terraria's Calamity Mod."

"This is where your reign of Calamity ends."
