Which is the one I was thinking of, along with Placidusax

Yeah, he is indeed the best dragon but I mean't the dragons he listed before lol

manic coral
#

ok fair

sturdy kindle
#

Sennesax is the worst tho

wheat walrus
#

Well I guess Placi does look like Cooler White Fatalis, but White Fatalis is the only Fatalis I kinda just dislike idk doesn't sit right with me

real silo
#

Didn't even need to ping

wheat walrus
#

Besides, while Fatalis is literally The Dragonā„¢ there are many other cool dragons

The omni stands for omnipresent

Here with another question. If it does not fit with Lore discussion and needs to be moved to somewhere else just point me in the direction of the channel.

But I know Goozma is fan content (I believe at least)
However what exactly is Goozma? Are they the slime god? Also whats up with the eye? I see similaritys to Xeroc and Noxus obviously but does that mean Goozma has ties to either? Do all gods have an "Eye of [Insert deity here]"

real silo
#

Eventually slime god and provi will get their own sigils

#

uh goozma is like an auric dragon (has an auric soul) except the body is a slime

#

Noxus' sigil is just something silly that the fandom folks made to contrast xeroc's sigil

Good morning everyone! I'm interested in compiling a lore video around Calamity and was curious if everything canon is available in game or if there are outside sources to reference.

scenic olive
#

dragons

#

gods

#

souls

#

magic

split mortar
#

Almost everything is in game, all in game lore can be found in the lore document in the pins

scenic olive
#

4 words that i can use to describe calamity

#

oh

#

aliens

#

i forgot

split mortar
#

There are a few tid bits that aren’t ingame yet

#

-# also a bunch of old lore is still around, so for the time being lore doc is a more pure source then in game since outdated stuff is still ingame:(

scenic olive
#

does the distortion creatures classified as primordials or are they aliens

split mortar
#

The fucks a primordial

scenic olive
#

idk like a creature that predates all life, its been there since the start of time

limpid saddle
#

Well the Distortion is an impossible plane of fucked up folded space

spring helm
#

I’m thinking aliens would be the better descriptor

#

It’s hard to call them primordials when we don’t know how long they’ve been around

limpid saddle
#

So hypothetically it could've existed for only 32 years or so, or potentially older than all known forces of the universe

#

we shrimply dont know

split mortar
#

Its older then god era
Cv is older then god era

dusk laurel

You should join the cult

#

The bestiarys are spoiled from the lore devs so yeah it is directly from source

primal timber
#

Follow up question, aside from calamity itself, are any of the add on mods considered canon and to be treated as such? I know there are some considered "official" and not but I wasn't sure if that just qualified them as okayed by the devs.

split mortar
#

The only official addon is vanilla calamity music mod iirc

So no addon changes the lore

primal timber
#

Wonderful, thank you.

hoary berry
#

three separate xeroc-related things i could be adding to and i have ideas for none of them

mild hatch
#

I know it's a very silly question, but
What is the lore reasoning for NPCs only selling specific items on specific moon phases?

pliant ruin
#

video game

#

sell werewolf chew toy on full moon because werewolf full moon

#

funny

split mortar
#

Maybe its cause wherever theyre getting or making stuff they only get it around that time and in low supply

split mortar
pliant ruin
#

not everything has

#

a lore reason

#

you can make up ur own headcanons

#

thats fine

split mortar
#

^

#

what i said was basically just hearcanon

scenic olive
#

Me with 44k headcanons at the ready

pliant ruin
#

if i had tro guess

#

its just, a gimmick

#

to attract customers

#

atleast in most cases

#

like wow come buy this limited edition thing!

#

You can let me know if you have any questions

fast wadi
#

havent seen a proper lore video yet

#

they probably do exist tho

cosmic zenith
#

There is information we shared outside the game, but we have the strict rule that nothing outside the game is canon so

#

You could consider some things canon because they're planned to be added, but for the purpose of a lore video, it's best to stick to the game

fast wadi
#

is the old ones army canon

cosmic zenith
#

No
Crossover and dedicated content isn't canon

primal timber
fast wadi
manic coral
#

good banner

#

second off

#

yeha basically what stip (vetrasyl) said

#

there are some kinda small things that have been said but nothing major

#

and those said smaller things are subject to change so

#

yeah best to stick to the game

midnight fossil
manic coral
#

about what

#

im curious

midnight fossil
#

calamity mod

manic coral
#

i meant confused about what exactly

midnight fossil
#

oooh

#

like

#

there is a dragon of death?

primal timber
#

Sounds good. 🫔 I appreciate the communication on the matter. I want to make sure it's as future proof as possible

midnight fossil
gaunt sluice
#

that was one of the things I think mentioned in here at some point idk I wasn't there

manic coral
#

yeha no ti will be, ever since the writing team changed we basically agreed to no major rewrites

#

because old lore had. issues with that.

dusk laurel
#

Old lore kept changing

mighty zenith
manic coral
#

plenty more WILL be added

#

a lot more has waited to be added becuase of Sunken Sea Overhaul taking a long time

#

like i right now am in the middle of massively expanding and overhauling dialogue for calamity town NPCs

midnight fossil
manic coral
#

yeah

#

where msot of what new the desert is and also the sunken sea

#

the city itself was basically entirely incinerated but

#

the sunken sea, its outskirts, still exist

midnight fossil
#

awesome

manic coral

#

Super excited to see what you guys got cut off. I'll definitely be sure to mention that the story isn't finished and plans to have additions, leaves a good follow up for a down the road finale overview

gaunt sluice

midnight fossil
manic coral

her not doing that is a handover form old stuff

gaunt sluice
#

ah

primal timber
#

I've never noticed how many reactions I use in conversations until I join a server that doesn't allow them haha.

manic coral
#

and sitll hasn't been corrected because new npc stuff wasnt done for Bountiful Harvest

mighty zenith
#

she's like just straight up a bitch to him currently iirc

#

her dialogue is pretty bitchy in general

manic coral
#

last i checked there's jsut

#

minimal adknowedgment

#

our priority was removing anythign that straight up contradicted new canon

mighty zenith
#

she does acknowledge him a bit but yea its part of old lore since they barely knew each other then

midnight fossil
#

didnt permafrost work with draedon AND yharim and he just aint talking about it

bountiful harvest being the last major update

Sans having pink slippers is still non canon due to merch not being canon but it has been acknowledged due to that

#

Gaster is funny since we don’t technically know mystery man is gaster

mighty zenith
#

but theres also the crowd of people who are dead set on the fact gaster has nothing to do with deltarune

midnight fossil
mighty zenith
#

which

is just being ignorant as hell

gaunt sluice
#

calamity lore became undertale lore

dusk laurel
mighty zenith
#

content drought and all

gaunt sluice
#

Good point

pastel gazelle
#

Undertale is funny because it has various things to say about the idea of canonicity and plays with the line between player and character. I don't think it's a good point of comparison. It also has a much larger fanbase total.

dusk laurel
#

Scope creep and its consequences

rotund shore
#

Like when mystery guy took over tobys twitter, THATSBSO CLEARLY GASTER

dusk laurel
#

Why is this channel so active

#

Why are there like 7 people here now

rotund shore
#

Nobody else says ā€œVery, very interestingā€ like that

midnight fossil
mighty zenith
#

like its so fucking obvious

rotund shore
#

Btw survey program (OG deltarune release) is version 0.666 because of course it is

gray tulip
#

I actually don't think Toby fox cares even a smidgen about gaster. He's just messing with us, I don't think it's gonna be important. I could be wrong but Toby is absolutely the type to do that

rotund shore
#

Why is gaster associated with 666, is he satan

mighty zenith
#

Toby is the type to mess around but he's not scott cawthon

mighty zenith
#

he doesnt do red herrings that lead to a nothingburger

Scott Cawthon and his effects on people

#

I’ve considered stirring the pot by asking y’all who you think the ā€œWhat do you two think?ā€ Line gaster has is referring to

#

But I feel like that’d be too much

dusk laurel
mighty zenith
#

personally its alphys and sans

#

though tbh it could very well be sans and papyrus, papy isnt dumb

dusk laurel
sinful adder
primal timber
gray tulip
#

Scott cawthon did that cause he was a bad writer. Toby is doing it because he's a great and hilarious writer. In my opinion. Again, we'll just have to see.

sinful adder
#

And also as the guy in the intro

rotund shore
#

I’ve had the crack pot theory that itll be revealed he said that to Kris and Susie but that’s mostly a shitpost

midnight fossil
# rotund shore I’ve considered stirring the pot by asking y’all who you think the ā€œWhat do you ...

gaster quit his job as the royal scientist due to underwhelming pay from King Asgore
although working for a government facility he died shortly after and his death was ruled as a suicide
Inflation is rising and gasters pay was not matching that and when attempting to leave his job after refusal of a raise. he was 86'd by the government
gaster reflects real life wage disaparity in government officials

We can infer that alot of entry 17 is talking about a dark fountain

ā€œDarker, yet darkerā€ ā€œPhoton readings negativeā€

imagine if entry 17 is actually his pre-battle/cutscene dialogue

open frenzy just doesnt relate to the ravager

how ??

Y’all have this lore and I don’t even know how to pronounce it

omg magalor

i knew it

pastel gazelle

I also just remember too much stuff that was overhauled. And also some of the stuff that doesn't make sense and is totally out of left field is, regrettably, vanilla content.

dusk laurel

Maga????!??!?!

It's integrated well when it can be, but there's still all three invasions which are kind of out of nowhere.

gray tulip
#

A lot of names for songs feel like they could be swapped.
Why is "open frenzy" not for a sea related enemy? Feels strange.

mighty zenith

how does open frenzy relate to the sea

manic coral
manic coral
mighty zenith

cause it sounds like "open sea"?

a frenzy of sharks

pastel gazelle

I. guess it sounds kind of like a play on "open sea"?

midnight fossil
rotund shore
mighty zenith
#

thats just kinda dumb lmao

gray tulip

Maybe I'm stupid but I hear frenzy I think "feeding frenzy" like sharks, and open sea. Maybe I'm stupid.

manic coral
#

yeah

mighty zenith
#

its an unintentional pun

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

and even then its barely a pun

manic coral
#

also rmemeber these song names were made YEARS before the new writing team

midnight fossil
#

it should be called like quetzalsomething and there should be like creepy throatsinging in the back

manic coral
#

we did out best to make sure they all make sense

mighty zenith
#

yea its just
ravager is on a frenzy and is out in the open world

manic coral
#

in fact i'd argue some make more sense now

#

except one

midnight fossil
manic coral
#

the obvious one

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

tbh the song barelt fits the boss fight considering how stationary ravager is

its just a fucking BRICK

#

Ravager is the reanimated corpse of the god of sacrifices

dusk laurel
#

In a pre-gened arena

gray tulip
#

i was gonna bring up murderswarm but i also speed blitzed that fight so maybe dragonfolly does some swarm stuff in the 90% of the health bar that went down in the first few seconds

manic coral
#

the DRAGON he took the auric soul from was the Dragon of Death

mighty zenith
mighty zenith
#

so it fits

gray tulip
#

that makes sense

split mortar
midnight fossil
#

i swear ravager had something to do with a cult?

#

is it really just some guy?

dusk laurel
#

it has followers I think

mighty zenith
#

well the god had a religion

dusk laurel
#

But not a death cult

manic coral
#

now one you CAN critisize us for i supposed is Roar of the Jungle Dragon

#

but to be frank

mighty zenith
#

also servants of the scourge

manic coral
#

we saw no way to keep yharon realting to the jungle and still make sense

also ok that one too

I know obviously the enemies in the eclipse are non canon, but could the solar tablet item be a reasonably canon thing? Since I have some Headcanons and I wanna see how viable they’d be as anything meaningful

I’m still genuinely upset that the ā€œSlime God flees to fight another dayā€¦ā€ line was only meant to prelude Queen Slime, a boss fought immediately after the Wall of Flesh

I actually thought at the time that Slime God was going to come back later and it was supposed to foreshadow Goozma retuning 😭

I wonder why they like a specific kind of mushroom considering mushrooms don't really grow in oceans

# jaunty niche is the sea king a merman?

Ilmerans are a sapient set of creatures who all lived in Ilmeris that evolved to have human qualities, and used to have several tribes. We can infer the tribes had different fish origins due to the designs of the Ilmerans we have, that being the God of Seas (resembling an Anglerfish), Otonilou, the Goddess of Electricity (resembling a Jellyfish), and Amidias (resembling a Seahorse).

jaunty niche
#

by "origins", you mean those people have fish ancestors?

#

okay all vertebrate have fish ancestors, but I mean closer ancestors

indigo glade
#

None of it is ingame yet, but it was revealed to us that Ilmeran's origins are fish in nature, and not human.

#

(So fish getting human qualities, not humans getting fish qualities)

pliant ruin

hiii

pliant ruin
#

because i proposed a headcanon that otonilou's species is the one that's specifically the opposite because it has way too many direct human traits to be descended from a invertebrate let alone a jellyfish

#

and reb thought it was plausible iirc so

dusk laurel
pliant ruin
#

hihi

dusk laurel
#

Probably? But idk

cosmic zenith
#

I personally think Ilmerians are magical on some capacity and it's at the least exhaustive to approach it from a purely biological perspective

#

Do they have an evolutionary history? Yes, I think so
Is their existence entirely governed by real-life phylogenetic mechanics? Almost certainly no

#

There's also the fact that "Ilmerian" is a lot more of an ethnicity than it is a species

pliant ruin
#

honestly i think every illmeran species except for otonilou's could reasonably have evolved from fish, magic or not

#

atleast from what we've seen

cosmic zenith
#

Otonilou's species almost certainly isn't the only one to be that human

#

See Ilmerian OC Contest

dusk laurel
#

Aren't those scrapped

#

Or are they just gonna go unused

cosmic zenith
#

Unused

#

They don't contradict anything in the lore to my knowledge

dusk laurel
#

Does this also apply to the crags enemy contest, since some of those might not contradict the new lore

#

That, I don't know

i find it interesting he can just..

#

#

no problem

manic coral
#

i do want to address that in a line or two

gray tulip
#

is there any theme at all to the dragon's domains?

#

because between the dragons and gods, we know:
1.Life
2.Death
3.Rebirth
Ok cool we have a theme here
4.Light
OK that fits well enough with the above 3
5. Fire
Different elements could also make sense so if we're counting the typical idea of the 4 classical elements + light and dark, AND we have the life death rebirth trinity, this all makes sense
6. ...slime...?

cloud ibex
#

nah there was no dragon of slime

#

SG's domain was derived from Gluttony

#

there was also a dragon of Gravity

pliant ruin
#

There is no specific theme other than just, things that are part of the world

cloud ibex
#

the closest to a "theme" there is is that dragon domains are less specific than godly domains

gray tulip
#

where did frost and gravity come from? not mentioned in game yet or did i miss smth?

cloud ibex
#

not mentioned in game yet

#

i think Frost is intended for a separate addon, not the base mod?

pliant ruin
#

nah

dusk laurel

Nah Frost is a base mod thing

its gonna be in the base mod

thats really cool and will definitely add to the environmental storytelling

there is definitely a part of me that is deeply annoyed at there not being a theme for the dragons but i know that thats a part ill have to sacrifice to become a better writer. i just like sets so much. i like putting things in neat boxes

split mortar
# gray tulip there is definitely a part of me that is deeply annoyed at there not being a the...

The theming is things that are major to the world

The dragons got their auric souls from the fragments of the world soul, and thus things major to the world (death,life,sunlight,rebirth) and gods are the ones with less specified domains iirc

Also yeah correct with life, death and rebirth being themed, hell frim dev statements we know the first three dragons to get their auric souls

First was life
Second was death
Third was rebirth

So yeah its kinda based on living, dying then being reborn

also, just read ceaseless void, its just like that?

Yeah its just a portal

im not expecting a deadline i was just thinking that The People probably have an idea. though... 7 to 8 years. damn. There are people entering college right now who will celebrate earning their PhD by beating yharim if that's accurate (and i have no reason to believe it is not)

(aside from the fact that i have no reason to believe it is other than trust in my fellow man)

Ill say all the updates i know olanned off the top of my head

once you beat yharim, you'd crown yourself Ruler. You've done it. The three routes of calamity that i've identified for you to make your story are:

  1. Continuing Yharim's work
  2. Avenging the gods
  3. selfishly grasping for power
    I feel like only #3 really works post-yharim. but if yharim is meant to be "The End" and the other two are just optional super bosses i guess that could make sense
