NO

cloud ibex
#

personally i like to imagine that attuning yourself to an auric dragon gives you some faint draconic features

#

like for example them having very long lifespans

gritty kraken
#

Yharim have a bird face now

cloud ibex
#

not to that extent

untold oracle
#

I assume it’s because

  • He’s hella jacked
  • Yharon dragon magic shenanigans
  • Armour has life support I think
cloud ibex
#

but in my mind's version of yharim without the armor he has a faint scale-like texture to his skin and sharp, pointed nails

#

still very clearly human but also a little bit not

untold oracle
#

I headcanon that he’s azafurian

#

I mean

magic epoch
#

i headcanon that yharim is dead

split mortar
untold oracle
#

I think I had a good amount of proof for it, but it was proven false by Cei iirc (he’s from another continent)

split mortar
#

Or wait 2 years

cloud ibex
#

make your dreams come true

dusk laurel
#

Take control of your life

mighty zenith
gaunt sluice
robust osprey
#

springtrap be like

trim edge
#

what happens if a dragon dies and its auric soul isn't consumed but yharon also isn't around

robust osprey
#

uuh

#

evil biome happens

#

oh wait those are gods souls

split mortar
robust osprey
#

uuh the dragon might revive

#

in a long long time

split mortar
robust osprey
#

😔

split mortar
#

I think itd just wait there till yharon rebirths

robust osprey
#

then it would wait there patiently

trim edge
#

since dungeon spirits and yharim's soldiers' souls can continue fighting after death
can an auric soul still exert the dragon's will

robust osprey
#

yharim soldier's souls are in the mechs right?

#

or am I high

dusk laurel
#

Some of them yeah

dusk laurel
trim edge
#

but yharon is clearly special

split mortar
#

Yeah yharon gets more control over their soul

#

The other dragons may get some control

dusk laurel
#

True

gusty herald
#

does the way auric tesla armor looks have anything to do with yharim

#

like is yharim wearing one of those too or something? they looked similar to me

dusk laurel
#

Yharim is wearing modified auric

#

His retains the ability to reject things and has exotech enhancements

split mortar
dusk laurel
#

You can find his concept art in the pins

sinful adder
#

His auric is just as strong as ours, except that it can reject things, and has some exo tech enhancements

split mortar
#

Yeah and both those traits make it far superior

sinful adder
#

I guess so

stoic gulch
#

if current day terraria is like 1800-1900 what year did xeroc ascend

cloud ibex
#

i forget how old they're said to be but

#

i think sometime around 800-1100? not too sure

dusk laurel
#

Probably around 800 yeah

How it feels to spread misinformation

#

I am too silly to do such shallow gooberisms

#

Instead i would do the terrarian image HyperFailure

deft valve
#

it isnt nice

cloud ibex
#

if i had image editing skills i'd make a "STOP SPREADING MISINFORMATION" image with "wanna decieve someone anyway for a laugh? WE HAVE A TOOL FOR THAT, it's called THE FANDOM WIKI"

mighty zenith
#

understandable tbh

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

scope creep do be a bitch

dusk laurel
#

We've heard so much about this update

manic coral
#

espeically becuase we agreed we couldn't have an update take this long again

dusk laurel
#

I can't even imagine what isn't public

manic coral
#

aaaaand then 2 years later it happened again

split mortar
#

:/

#

Well hopefully the rest dont take as long

split mortar
dusk laurel
#

The nefarious enemy AI and animations

split mortar
#

Oki

light linden
dusk laurel
#

Yes

gaunt sluice
#

god frickin

split mortar
gaunt sluice
#

fair enough

dusk laurel
#

Also splitting it in 2 allows them to do more in each ig

#

Like Crabulon might have been reworked if it stayed as one update afaik, and now it definitely will

gaunt sluice
#

alright then

#

What are like all the bosses power scaling in terms of average human ability

split mortar
#

Slime god could beat a entire normal army

gaunt sluice
#

alright

#

slime god consume all

split mortar
#

-# astrum deus does a near city level event by throwing the astral star

gaunt sluice
#

yeah but that's a one time thing

dusk laurel
#

Who so quiet

#

Those who whisper

split mortar
#

killing you

gaunt sluice
#

how canon are the infernum fights

dusk laurel
#

Not canon

split mortar
gaunt sluice
#

woah cool

#

ty

split mortar
gaunt sluice
#

yea

#

it's just d i f f i c u l t

split mortar
#

The canon difficulty is ex rev

dusk laurel
#

It's just rev

#

Why add the expert part

split mortar
dusk laurel
#

That's gonna change

#

In like 7 years

split mortar
#

Still good to specify currently since not everyone knows that

gaunt sluice
#

jeez explosives are kinda frickin strong

split mortar
#

Yea

gaunt sluice
#

what would rogue weapons look like in actual use

#

like just a bunch of throwing things

#

or one that's used really specifically

cosmic zenith
#

Note that part 2 is noticeably smaller

#

Since it's Hardmode stuff

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

gaunt sluice
#

yea alr

split mortar
#

Rogue has two forms, stealth and spam

I imagine stealth is the precisely used one while spam is just yeeting it as hard as you can and fast as you can

gaunt sluice
cosmic zenith
#

It's just been a bit uneventful in dev outside of spriting, which has been the most effort-intensive development activity for some time

light linden
#

wish I could help y'all lmao

light linden
#

is it sso that the chrysadia stuff is coming in?

dusk laurel
#

Wdym

#

Like the lore?

#

The world gen?

light linden
#

both

dusk laurel
#

Another update

light linden
#

aw

#

ty

cosmic zenith
#

No problem!

#

Though it shouldn't be too hard to add Chrysadia stuff whenever programmers are up to it

light linden
#

actually another question if you don't mind

cosmic zenith
#

The lore is mostly written, there's plenty of progress on the main structure, and only a few Aerialite items are left to code

#

I don't mind!

light linden
#

which dev/devs work on the ai for bosses?

dusk laurel
#

Mainly Fab

split mortar
#

I know fabsol

light linden
#

ah

dusk laurel
#

Sometimes Xyk

cosmic zenith
#

Fab, basically

split mortar
#

Uh
Idk anyone else

cosmic zenith
#

Xyk has worked on a few things

split mortar
#

Yeah 1 person does most XD

light linden
#

I'm tryna figure out why a minion in my add-on is doing cartwheels

cosmic zenith
#

I can't recall anyone else who picked up boss AI

dusk laurel
#

Xyk did the new stuff for SCal in Harvest and the Providence stuff next update

cosmic zenith
#

Oh

dusk laurel
#

I think

#

It's been a while since I heard of it

#

And it was basically just vfx iirc

cosmic zenith
#

Ennway worked on plenty of visual stuff since joining

gaunt sluice
#

Which bosses come after you and which ones do you seek out

#

like canonically

dusk laurel
cosmic zenith
#

Which teaser?

dusk laurel
#

The one with the old ds sprite triangle and tobias did

#

The digging effects

split mortar
#

Oh yeah you hurt aqua scoog first and queen bees children first before the fight so them aswell?

gaunt sluice
#

oh alright

gaunt sluice
#

yall are unsafe walls supposed to drop when I blow them up in the Sunken Sea

lament jetty
#

Why is it the moons get harder when you beat DoG?, is it because he douvered the gods and once you beat him the moon gods are like unsealed or smth

gaunt sluice
#

?

lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

Since the post-DoG versions of the moon events will be removed and them being based on holidays

gaunt sluice
#

oh those

lament jetty
#

Whats Ravagers role lore wise

dusk laurel
#

It is the revived God of Sacrifices

gaunt sluice
#

ye

dusk laurel
#

If we go on about GoS, they also absorbed the soul of the Dragon of Death

lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

Usually not

lament jetty
#

Oh yeah, exo mechs are kinda canon, idk about scal

dusk laurel
#

Some are, like the Exo Mechs, probably the Evil 2s, Aquatic Scourge if you attack it when it naturally spawns, Levi + Anahita presumably, maybe PBG? maybe Folly? and Providence

#

Well Providence's will be canon if it gets changed to summon her if you have the Profaned Core in your inventory and you walk into the profaned biome

dusk laurel
#

Like, Hivemind and Perfs

lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

PBG is Plaguebringer Goliath

lament jetty
lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

Aureus, Ravager, Polterghast and Old Duke's summon methods will probably be canon once those are changed

dusk laurel
gaunt sluice
lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

The only relations they share are that they're from the Distortion

gaunt sluice
#

but yea I don't think they're really servants

dusk laurel
#

CV is a portal made by Noxus

#

Weaver is another animal that escaped the Distortion

lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

A distortion in the universe or smth

#

It's a different area outside of the planet

cosmic zenith
#

It's a pocket dimension but not actually a pocket dimension

#

Think of it as a crack in spacetime

gaunt sluice
#

a rift'

lament jetty
cosmic zenith
#

Ceaseless Void is a portal to it

#

DoG, Noxus, Storm Weaver and Signus come from it

lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

Wdym

gaunt sluice
#

its not a wormhole

#

it's a subdimension

lament jetty
#

What species is DoG

gaunt sluice
#

big space worm

dusk laurel
#

Noxus, DoG and Signus can all make portals to it, but Noxus is the only one who can make permanent portals, which we can see in CV

dusk laurel
lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

Like devoured?

#

A bunch of gods

sinful adder
gaunt sluice
#

idk how many gods we have listed

dusk laurel
#

None of the gods we know were eaten by DoG I think

gaunt sluice
#

yea

dusk laurel
#

But he has consumed many

gaunt sluice
#

their essence was destroyed so ig there wouldn't be much of a mark left behind

sinful adder
#

There used to be thousands of gods (all weaker than Providence except for maybe one or two) and yharim, his army, Calamitas, and DoG killed them

gaunt sluice
#

Calamitas s h r e d

dusk laurel
#

A bunch are stronger than Providence, Like Xeroc, the god of space, and someone else

gaunt sluice
#

Silva

dusk laurel
#

Wasn't there a list of what gods we know of and their ranking

gaunt sluice
#

idk

cosmic zenith
gaunt sluice
#

it's unstable

cosmic zenith
#

It's a bit tough to explain and understand, but the important thing to know is that is isn't an actual pocket or alternate dimension

#

There's no evidence of such things existing in Calamity

gaunt sluice
#

yea otherwise we'd have subworld library

sinful adder
#

I mean, we will

dusk laurel
#

iirc no

sinful adder
#

But it will be used for other places outside of the continent we play on

#

As opposed to other universes

dusk laurel
#

Since the devs plan to make their own code afaik

sinful adder
#

Oh

#

So different thing with the same functions

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

cosmic zenith
#

Yeah
It'll be a subworld, just not canonically a pocket/alternate dimension

#

Subworlds aren't necessarily that

gaunt sluice
#

yea

tall delta
#

metal mario vs calverse who wins

gaunt sluice
#

so is Silva completely dead

dusk laurel
#

No

tall delta
#

Nope

gaunt sluice
#

yea that's what I thought

dusk laurel
#

She's basically in a coma

#

Since Elementals are essentially unkillable

gaunt sluice
#

oh hello Rebecca

cosmic zenith
#

Known Gods:

  • Xeroc, God of Primordial Light
  • Shakidou, God of Space
  • Silva, Goddess of Life
  • [Unnamed], God of Sacrifices
  • Providence, Goddess of Ash
  • Tyrian, God of the Seas
  • Otonilou, Goddess of Electricity
  • [Unnamed], God of Slimes
spare pier
#

Also yeah on the topic of alternate dimensions, no the Distortion is not one because implying alternate dimensions may be a thing in Cal's universe would nuke things so badly I might just explode myself

cosmic zenith
#

(To be clear, this is not a strength ranking)

gaunt sluice
#

oh there's a space god

cosmic zenith
#

Yeah, we're not adding any multiverse implications

lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

Yes

gaunt sluice
#

Slime God, God of Slimes

lament jetty
light linden
lament jetty
#

lets canonically name him Bob

cosmic zenith
#

How so?

gaunt sluice
#

I second this

light linden
#

the future bosses?

dusk laurel
#

Those have been dead

cosmic zenith
#

Future bosses aren't canon?

dusk laurel
#

For years

light linden
#

ik they were short lived

#

but still

gaunt sluice
#

those were removed

dusk laurel
#

And made before the new lore

#

Long ago

cosmic zenith
#

Yeah

light linden
#

oh they were pre new lore?

dusk laurel
#

Yes

cosmic zenith
#

Of course

lament jetty
#

Are the backround music canon

light linden
#

I thought they were added like

#

last year

dusk laurel
#

What

cosmic zenith
#

Future bosses were added ages ago, in 2018-2019 or so I think?
The lore rewrite was in early 2022 iirc

gaunt sluice
dusk laurel
#

Yharon is canon

light linden
#

yharon's is

gaunt sluice
#

✨ Nevermind

dusk laurel
#

Except for the jungle dragon name

cosmic zenith
#

Yharon and SCal themes are actually canon
Though SCal requires a bit of a stretch

lament jetty
cosmic zenith
#

Wdym?

lament jetty
#

Yharon just be spitting while fighting the player

lament jetty
tall delta
#

Yes

gaunt sluice
#

there isn't anything to make it not be

dusk laurel
#

I don't see why it wouldn't

cosmic zenith
#

Wdym you mean by that? The title of the song, it existing and playing in-universe?

dusk laurel
#

It doesn't imply anything contradictory other than the names

cosmic zenith
#

Or just
It matching DoG

lament jetty
gaunt sluice
#

nah

cosmic zenith
#

On the topic of future bosses, they don't necessarily involve parallel universes
They could be from alternate timelines, which aren't necessarily universes of their own

gaunt sluice
#

randomly while playing the game I remember that all the music just isn't happening so it's mostly dead silence during the fight

cosmic zenith
#

None of the songs play in-universe

#

That would be pretty silly

lament jetty
cosmic zenith
#

The lyrics are Yharon communicating telepathically with Yharim

gaunt sluice
#

He probably ain't actively singing his heart out while the fight's going

cosmic zenith
#

Yharon isn't capable of spoken human speech

dusk laurel
#

Yeah that

gaunt sluice
lament jetty
gaunt sluice
#

and heavy breathing

dusk laurel
#

Some bosses talk

#

Like SCal and Draedon

lament jetty
#

Anyone considered how HOT it must be during the Yharon/Scal fight

gaunt sluice
#

Yeah DoG, SCal, and Calclone talk

spare pier
gaunt sluice
#

I like how you can tell Scal is getting more desperate by her dialogue

spare pier
#

EXACTLY what he said

dusk laurel
#

Will CalClone still have dialogue when she gets reworked

spare pier
#

I view the lyrics as, in this case, what Yharon and SCal are going through

lament jetty
cosmic zenith
#

Yeah, but it covers his thoughts

gaunt sluice
spare pier
#

Tbf I'd do that

lament jetty
dusk laurel
cosmic zenith
#

I've tried singing while swinging a weapon

#

It uh

#

Doesn't go well

spare pier
lament jetty
cosmic zenith
#

At least I have sang while swinging a weapon, unlike you :p

lament jetty
#

There are literal fire tornadoes during the Yharon fight.

gaunt sluice
lament jetty
#

How hot is the ambience during the Yharon and Scal fight broboohoo

spare pier
#

Idk

#

Hot enough to not kill you but you are definitely built different

gaunt sluice
#

Hot enough to be mildly uncomfortable at all times

lament jetty
#

What does the towns people think while we fight freaking gods

dusk laurel
#

I mean fighting usually isn't a comfortable thing in general

light linden
dusk laurel
#

No

spare pier
#

It's been known for a while pretty sure

lament jetty
dusk laurel
#

This was mentioned a while ago already

#

Also he's a completely different lifeform

light linden
dusk laurel
#

Okay but that's Skyrim

lament jetty
#

Boss rush canon?

spare pier
#

It does make writing for Yharon kind of a pain in the ass but

dusk laurel
light linden
#

also these aren't just dragons

cosmic zenith
#

It's a bit unclear whether Dragons are physically incapable or it's just too hard to the point of next-to-none learning human language

light linden
#

they're gods

spare pier
#

I think that makes for him being a far more interesting character

cosmic zenith
#

And Dragons in general

spare pier
#

Yharon being a more elusive character is good

light linden
#

also semi off topic rant uh

spare pier
cosmic zenith
#

A language barrier does wonders for making characters understand each other through interaction and have to struggle through inexperience

light linden
#

am I the only one that gets very disorientated when telepathic characters speak?

gaunt sluice
#

How long does it take for Yharon to reincarnate

light linden
#

cause like I can hear them speaking but I can't see their mouth move

#

and it messes with my head

spare pier
cosmic zenith
gaunt sluice
#

oh alr cool

lament jetty
#

wait, how does the fights look canonically

spring helm
#

or is that a hard limit

lament jetty
cosmic zenith
#

Hard limit

spring helm
#

wow Yharim got really lucky

cosmic zenith
#

Why wouldn't he speed it up if he could?

spring helm
#

or was that planned too

light linden
#

could draedon learn draconic?

cosmic zenith
#

Definitely

#

Draedon is absurdly capable

light linden
#

actually could draedon even attune to a dragon?

spare pier
#

I think there are ways of accelerating Yharon's hatching, but they are all beyond his control

cosmic zenith
lament jetty
gaunt sluice
#

Draedon could probably build a bomb with a toothbrush

light linden
#

could you talk telepathically with draedon?

light linden
cosmic zenith
spare pier
#

Saying that Yharon just saved Yharim because he was incredibly lucky would be very cheap

cosmic zenith
#

^

spring helm
#

it was destiny

dusk laurel
#

💥

spare pier
#

Fate, if you will clueless

light linden
#

actually

lament jetty
#

What are the genders of the bosses so i can properly adress them

gaunt sluice
light linden
#

can yharon hear things while in his egg?

spring helm
#

happened in Ecuador

cosmic zenith
#

Yharim upon finding out that he fell prey to destiny

light linden
#

cause he might have heard yharim refuse to absorb his soul

dusk laurel
#

"Destiny is for the weak"

cosmic zenith
cosmic zenith
#

I imagine he has some subconscious knowledge, but not actually hear stuff

gaunt sluice
dusk laurel
#

Draedon is a robot

spring helm
#

Draedon is whatever you feel like, he don't care

gaunt sluice
#

fair enough

light linden
#

we do it all the time with phones

#

maybe something similar could work on draedon

gaunt sluice
#

no?

light linden
#

doubt he'd like the experience though

gaunt sluice
#

since when could you use telepathy on your phone

#

I think I missed that update

lament jetty
#

How strong would Nameless diety be if it was canon? (hypothetical)

spring helm
#

very

dusk laurel
#

Omnipotent

light linden
#

but on a technical level it would be for him

spring helm
#

wireless communication

light linden
#

^

gaunt sluice
#

fair enough

light linden

god that sounds like a bad time

just having someone randomly phone call your brain

Draedon getting mentally pinged every five minutes for the exos again

Sounds cool

I thought it was a reference

light linden
dusk laurel
#

There is a roleplay discussion channel there

#

sscls

spare pier

I'd talk more about her but I'd be spoiling her plotline which I very much want to explore

spring helm

real

lament jetty

is crafting canon?

spring helm
#

wdym

spare pier
#

Why wouldn't it

gaunt sluice
#

how would you obtain objects

dusk laurel
#

What

spare pier
#

By getting them

dusk laurel
#

You can like, pick up things? You can also make them

spring helm
#

like
mining?

spare pier
#

With your hands

gaunt sluice

but you can't pick up a wood into a hat

spring helm

spare pier

What

cosmic zenith
dusk laurel
gaunt sluice

i was replying to that

light linden

idk about you

spring helm

i still don't know what you're saying

gaunt sluice
#

✨ nevermind

dusk laurel
spare pier
dusk laurel

Not irl

light linden

Like, I think it's cool how, whenever fate is involved

#

Ecumena just says

#

"I"

dusk laurel
lament jetty
#

not like, imagine what draedon feels after u craft miracle matter

#

without prior knowledge

light linden
dusk laurel
#

.

light linden
#

it has happened twice to me

gaunt sluice
dusk laurel
#

What mod do you have downloaded

#

That does that

light linden
gaunt sluice
#

what have I done

light linden
#

it's been a bit since I've looked at my modlist

#

do you actually want a list?

dusk laurel
#

Not really

#

But this does not happen unless it's a mod

#

Why would trees drop, artificial armor, made out of themselves

gaunt sluice
dusk laurel
#

Okay but those are just simple shapes that tree branches can make

#

And you can't really use it as a sword

spare pier
#

Also

#

Here's the description I have for her

spring helm
#

what dragon did she eat

spare pier
#

Not telling you yet

#

That's a secret

spring helm
#

ok :3

dusk laurel
#

Is it a super secret

#

That will be revealed in a certain lore society

gaunt sluice
#

she wields a demonic umbrella

spare pier
#

Yes

light linden
#

I should write some stuff for what I've been thinking about

spring helm
#

im guessing it's the dragon of Causality

gaunt sluice
spring helm
#

Omni scale her now!

wheat walrus
#

The dragon of destiny... wires

gaunt sluice
spring helm
wheat walrus
gaunt sluice
#

So she can like

wheat walrus
gaunt sluice
#

bend fate

cosmic zenith
#

Oh, so it's a Calamity OC

#

I wasn't sure

gaunt sluice
#

but not rewrite it entirely

#

nevermind I can't read

spare pier
#

...and once every last God was purged, he’d slay Fate Herself.
This is something I have written about her on a part I didn't show anyone yet

#

I just think it's a really raw line HDfailure

dusk laurel
#

His final enemy

gaunt sluice
#

Ecumena when she realizes that DoG don't got any fingers

dusk laurel
#

Destiny

spare pier
#

I did kinda intend for that too yeah

gaunt sluice
#

just an oh frick moment

spare pier
#

I liked the idea of Yharim leaving her for last given his whole thing of "destiny is for the weak"

dusk laurel
#

This implies he has to kill Xeroc before her

#

Which is uh

gaunt sluice
#

I feel like it would be interesting if she realized she was preordained to die and then was freaking out trying to stop it even though she knows she can't

dusk laurel
#

A tall order

It's not about strength, it's about making a point HDfailure

spring helm
#

oh so that's why you added this

Anecdote: If any of your characters served Yharim before, you have all received direct instructions to not mess with Ecumena with no clear explanation. He just said she wasn't a threat and that he'd deal with her personally later.

gaunt sluice
#

'don't worry bout dat one'

spare pier
#

If he ever beat Xeroc

#

He might as well be above her anyways

#

He already thinks he is by default so

gaunt sluice
#

can she write people out of existence

spare pier
#

No

#

She can't do things which would be completely impossible

gaunt sluice
#

but like can she just go

#

'you're destined to trip off a cliff and die'

light linden
#

personally I've written all my god OCs to be dead by the events of the game

spare pier
#

Yeah, but first that guy had to go near a cliff HDfailure

gaunt sluice
gaunt sluice
spare pier
#

Then it enters the classical fate trope

#

Can you avoid fate?

light linden
#

this is fated to be a circular argument either way

gaunt sluice
#

Yeah that's a good point

#

What would fighting her be like

spare pier
#

Fucking annoying

gaunt sluice
#

thou shalt not touch me

#

idiot

spare pier
#

It's a bit harder than that

#

She can't just forbid actions outright

gaunt sluice
#

makes sense I guess

dusk laurel
#

Can she make you stub your toe

light linden
#

"You will fail this no hit run"

gaunt sluice
#

Then when she bouta die she just gives a last frick you

spare pier
#

The way I envision her power is more so similar to a watered down Wonder of U

light linden
#

wonder of u?

spare pier
#

Basically makes you really fucking unlucky

light linden
#

how unlucky?

spare pier
#

Actually no

#

It's more like

light linden
#

like all of my guns blow up in my face due to jamming unlucky?

spare pier
#

Ecumena can nudge things into being favorable to her

#

Wonder of U is "spontaneous combustion" levels of unlucky

gaunt sluice
#

can you imagine like, going into a fight and then she just wills you to trip every five seconds

spare pier
#

Yeah that's kinda it HDfailure

#

She can't heavily alter fate but she can very much nudge things into a direction that favors her

gaunt sluice
#

So fate kinda like tries to mess you up

#

Ecumena Vs. Calamitas

light linden
#

this reminds me

#

it true that yharon was partially inspired by adam warlock?

cosmic zenith
#

I don't think so...?

#

Who told you that

#

Also how is Adam Warlock similar to Yharon

light linden
#

aside from the regeneration not much

#

hence why I asked

cosmic zenith
#

Nah
Yharon's renegeration has been a thing for a good while

#

Also
New title!!!!!
This one is vaguely inspired by some Thunder Breathing forms

#

I saw a Zenitsu haori/shirt yesterday, and it was a cool moment
I also needed to change titles, "Ripple Amid Infinity" was for New Year/January
(Another lap around the Sun, another Rain World cryptic title about cyclical existence)

#

No better time to change than at the tail end of January, after the conclusion of a really tough subject in my course

there we go

real silo
#

At least I'm pretty sure hu tao is pyro I never played gay shins

mighty zenith
#

pyro tf2?

real silo
#

What would be really funny is if he's called jahannam

#

Fire dragon and he's just the islamic concept of hell

cosmic zenith
#

"Inazuma" means "lightning", but its kanji composition represents something like "rice plant's spouse"
Because, due to the heat and rain, lightning was fairly common in the rice harvest season, and it was believed that lightning striking the crops was a sign of good harvest

#

Which relates to Vetrasyl's role as a patron of civilization

#

Kanji shenanigans are so funny

#

So what’s the point with Yharim? Why did he become a tyrant?

cloud ibex
#

he's not really a tyrant in this version of the lore

pliant ruin
#

old lore momento

cloud ibex
#

more just a war criminal warlord with a supreme grudge against all gods in existence for the crimes of a few of them and an incredibly black and white view on the world

pliant ruin
#

that sums it up about right

cloud ibex
#

but if you're asking how he became that, it's a mixture of being sentenced to execution merely because he refused to consume yharon's soul + yharon, The Most Biased Dragon In Existence, telling him about how all gods suck ass and are assholes right after said attempted execution

wet sonnet
#

Is there anything that caused him to go on a crusade?

mighty zenith
#

getting tossed into lava by god followers was a pretty big reason

#

and also yharon traumadumping

pliant ruin
#

its like being attacked by a bear and deciding all bears on earth need to die and are evil

wet sonnet
pliant ruin
#

and going on a crusade to kill all bears

cloud ibex
#

yharon is equally as bad as yharim but he has the excuse of losing his sole purpose in existence by watching his entire species get picked off one by one over hundreds of years

mighty zenith
#

and then meeting some genuinely chill bears that just wanna make the world a better place

pliant ruin
#

also you blow up a entire country and kill thousands of innocents because that country had a bear on it

#

also several species endemic to that country go extinct

mighty zenith
#

and deciding to kill them and everyone that is associated with them

pliant ruin
#

but its okay because there was a a bear in there

cloud ibex
#

yharim just heard yharon's incredibly biased viewpoint right after already being slighted by the gods and decided to triple(?) ww2's death count

wet sonnet
#

Damn, and Yharim is depicted as a “tragic hero” from the media I’ve seen him in 😭

pliant ruin
#

also you blow up said country using the power of Child Soldier

wet sonnet
#

Or I interpreted it wrong

#

Which I tend to do

#

A lot

pliant ruin
#

yeah no alot of people suffer from yhapaganda

#

yharim so good at gaslighting he gaslights people in real life

cloud ibex
#

which to be fair could be because the most prominent and direct source of lore rn is yharim yhapping in your ear about gods being complicit in genocide

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

cloud ibex
#

incomplete mod™️

pliant ruin
#

illmeris is still by far the best way to show people how insane yharim is

wet sonnet
pliant ruin
#

me when i destroy a entire civilization, kill thousands of innocents, make several species go extinct, all of that using a child soldier who you're actively manipulating to do these things for you

because there were two gods in that civilization who weren't even bad people

cloud ibex
#

no matter what you do you aren't gonna rack up a kill count that comes even close to approaching yharim's

dusk laurel
#

Yharim and his kill count of hundreds of millions

pliant ruin
#

also whatever motivation you have is up to you

#

nothing you do ingame is explicitly evil

Aw hell naw

#

Is he somehow worse than Yharim or something

pliant ruin

no

#

hes the first god

#

guy who yharim really hates

wet sonnet
#

What did he even do

dusk laurel
#

The first god, god of primordial light, the guy Yharim mentions in prelude and requirm, former dragon monk, etc.

#

He's a cool guy

pliant ruin
#

consumed the auric soul of the king of dragons, zeratros, and inherited his domain of primordial light

#

hes a chill stoner

#

(headcanon but its true trust me

dusk laurel
#

Also implied protector of the world from outside threats

wet sonnet
#

Xeroc being a stoner is hilarious, that’s my headcanon too now lmfao

Imagine he didn’t intend to consume the auric soul and just smoked it instead without knowing what it actually was

What does and does not count as a god? Like triangle mentioned something about an auric dragon eating an Auric soul. That's a God, right? Then there's ravager, who's basically the corpse of a god. Does that have an auric soul? If not, what happened to it?

dusk laurel
#

It doesn't have it any more because god souls are really unstable

#

And it Rav is the revived god of sacrifces so yeah

#

But yeah you are right, a god is a person who has absorbed an auric soul

#

Auric dragons have the auric souls, and god souls are a combination of the ascendee's soul and the dragon's

anyway, you know those whisper thingies that bosses drop the first time you defeat one? someone seems to be talking, or journaling about the bosses and lore of terraria/calamity. will I find out who is speaking? and if it's not a spoiler for later on (not very far into the game), who is making these whisper notes?

The furnace we have is really really hot because we can melt Tungsten

**It is with such perfection that I wield full control over the untamed jungle. The Tyrant has disposed of me, seeing me as nothing but a traitor. Rest assured, he is yet to see the true limitations of my powers.
As for the army which I have constructed for him, I leave him with his infantry. They may march on into endless wars, lest they corrode and fall, which they inevitably will.
And so will he be forced to turn back to me.
No longer will my creativity be shackled by a commissioner, however. Newfound compounds formed at the death sites of pulsars yield strength seen only in manias. Yet I tinker with their very physical manifestation, in the palm of my hand.

You are nothing but a variable. And I will make you see yourself as nothing but one.**
