wheat walrus
#

pearto is immortal and turns whoever tries to eat her into another pearto to multiply

#

this also happens to inanimate objects

#

the pearto swarm would grow quickly

untold oracle
#

These two team up and nodiff pearto

subtle geyser
#

this is utterly incomprehensible

wheat walrus
#

they would have to team up with green fellagante and real teto to fully dispose of pearto

split mortar
#

Somewhat

wheat walrus
#

green humor weakens pearto so that real teto casts the magic drill attack that can fully destroy weakened pearto

#

but then we cannot weaponize pearto against the greater threat, dimensional traveler au melon gun

#

who has the power to fight pea, learo, green fellagante and real teto at once and win

#

but with the help of main universe melon gun, we can seal him in the depths of lea channel and weaken him

#

incredible

#

what was the embed fail

subtle geyser
#

wires don't worry about it

wheat walrus
#

i will

#

anyways, au melon gun might corrupt main melon gun with his propaganda abt the terrarian, who should not be You it should be only Melon Gun

#

so this is when Reign Yharim (good) and Purple Lagiacrus come in

split mortar
#

We gonna lose our message perms at this rate

wheat walrus
#

melon gun lore immortalized again

dense lynx
#

How old is terraria planet?

#

Same as earth or

deft vessel
#

Unknown

#

But doesnt really matter

dense lynx
#

Like when did dragonic era began

split mortar
deft vessel
#

Long ago™

dense lynx
#

Like it cant be like 2k years ago?

split mortar
#

At minimum the dragon era is 2K~ years ago but has no defined upper limit

#

Started 2k, ended oike 800 years ago

dense lynx
#

But what happened before dragonic era?

deft vessel
#

Something

#

After the world soils fracturing, Fovos’ invasion is really the only event we know of from back then

dense lynx
#

Like i dont believe planet is like only 2k years old

deft vessel
#

Yea, but there is no (public atleast) lore for that stuff

dense lynx
#

Also how old is Calamitas?

#

If Yharim is like 130

split mortar
dense lynx
#

I quess Terrarians age depends

split mortar
#

The terrarian is you moment yeah

young socket
dense lynx
#

And Calamitas still in Yharim ranks same time as Draedon?

long bloom
#

yeah

dense lynx
#

So did Plague happened same time as Ilemris incienration?

long bloom
#

calamitas joined the crusade around 1870 and draedon left around 1874

#

and ilmeris was around 1875

young socket
#

draedons final order from yharim was to make something that was equal to calamitas, since she left

long bloom
#

wait

young socket
long bloom
#

i might be misremembering

#

uhhh yeah idk

#

but i do remember that calclone happened after the plague

#

draedon decided to complete the project to see what would happen

young socket
#

"After the Incineration, however, my research [on Calamitas] came to an abrupt and unplanned end. The Archmage had already chosen to desert Yharim, and Calamitas followed in his footsteps shortly thereafter. It was then I would get my final official order from Yharim: replicate the Witch's power. My focus at the time was the Plague, so initially I made minimal progress. Soon after, the Godseeker and I went our separate ways."

long bloom
#

great now i need to find the point in my timeline i fucked the math up

young socket
#

probably the incineration since no defined date

long bloom
#

it's roughly 10 years before the start of the game which is

#

uhhhhhhhh

#

hell

#

why did they have to make it a ten fucking year window

#

if it's over like 3 years after 1886 then the timeline gets weird

#

an actual confirmed year would save my goddamn life

#

but for now i guess it's 1887

fast pond
#

hmmm does anyone know what the remaining crusade members did after Yharim went to The Aerie alone?

split mortar
#

They mostly just fizzled out iirc

fast pond
#

hm

#

gone

#

reduced to atoms

#

well understandable, a group with its leader disappear will just break apart

subtle geyser
#

draedon was an asshole I'm glad he's gone

fast pond
#

some of them even went for Elemental hunt

#

I really wanna find more info about The Crusade's remains

split mortar
fast pond
split mortar
#

Also this a dev quote
-# just grabbing random info i know of the crusade

dense lynx
#

So Terrarias human history is shorter than earths human history

split mortar
#

The first ever large scale settlement was azafure and that things foundation is what marks the start of the calander

fast pond
# split mortar Yea

I dont think so, maybe Draedon just abandon them like he did with the Aureus

#

he didnt like them cuz he couldnt control them

scarlet axle
#

Is azafure still like 2000 years old

fast pond
#

those souls have will

split mortar
#

They power and also control the mech bodies

fast pond
#

yes

untold oracle
fast pond
#

Yharim released them

scarlet axle
#

Azafure younger than london thats crazy

split mortar
fast pond
#

but no, it's still working even before that

split mortar
#

A fair enough

fast pond
#

I wonder why they didnt come and beat the sh out of the Terrarian in pre hm

#

lmao

split mortar
fast pond
#

oh yes

split mortar
#

While wof just explodes all it has everywhere and so alerts mechs to us

fast pond
#

right

#

yea that actually make sense

untold oracle
split mortar
#

Im going to beat you with rocks

untold oracle
#

You cant do that

dusk laurel
#

i will atomize leas alcohol

fast pond
#

they didnt consume an Auric soul

untold oracle
#

Also she doesnt drink that much anymore

#

Checkmate

dusk laurel
#

fine i'll poison the water supply

split mortar
long bloom
#

i think they mean yharon frags

fast pond
split mortar
#

Those are infected normal souls im pretty sure

long bloom
#

wait they might be cooking

split mortar
#

Hence why normal enemies drop them

long bloom
#

i never even considered they could be pieces of god souls

untold oracle
#

Just like
Collect 10000 souls of night and create evil god

#

The summon item requires 10000 souls and it is consumable

fast pond
#

I mean gods also has "light" and "night" part in them, right?

untold oracle
#

Lore accurate gameplay design

fast pond
#

when Yharim kill them they just drop them along with their auric soul

split mortar
#

Gods dont have an auric soul

#

Their soul completely fuses with the auric soul and is a different thing to both previous souls

fast pond
#

Im confused

long bloom
#

god souls are different than auric souls

#

as melon just said

deft vessel
#

A fusion of the original and the auric

long bloom
#

they're also really unstable when the god dies iirc

split mortar
#

^

#

Oop ping

fast pond
#

oh

#

ohh I got it

split mortar
fast pond
#

ic ic

#

thx

long bloom
#

yeah that's why you don't see like provi's soul sticking around

split mortar
#

Yeah instead you mine it (uelibloom)

long bloom
#

that's not her soul

split mortar
#

Esence

long bloom
#

nop

real glen
#

'soul' is basically ghost
So is fused dragons can only see, but can't control body

long bloom
#

i don't think auric souls are sentient

#

but you'll have to ask reb

deft vessel
#

Iirc the world soul shard from the world souls lost their sentience when they united with their dragon

deft vessel
#

Has the rp lore over taken my lore memory…

split mortar
#

Yes

deft vessel
untold oracle
#

The rp is basically canon though

split mortar
#

#

Who would you rather be at your front door
Yharim or goku

deft vessel
#

Goku

#

He may try fight me, but if Yharim is at my door he will prob try to kill me

young socket
#

it has two lorewriters so

#

basically canon

mighty zenith
frozen shard
#

where does draedon watch you from

haughty seal
split mortar
#

i imagine draedon still has labs on the heartlands

frozen shard
#

heartlands?

haughty seal
frozen shard
#

oh

haughty seal
#

the area where Yharim's crusade started

split mortar
#

headcanon name one of the writers has for the continent we play on, while not canon its the only name we have that can consistently refer to it

frozen shard
#

im really interested in calamity lore

#

so im trying to get into it

split mortar
split mortar
frozen shard
#

im really liking it

split mortar
#

nice

strong compass
#

why are there cities in hell?

#

talking about azafure

split mortar
#

the surface used to be a lot worse then hell when the dragons were in control, and crags had a very high amount of vegatation so it was appealing to people who wanted to make a settlement iirc

sinful adder
split mortar
#

the sun is why the surface was worse

frozen shard
#

does player kill every boss or spare some

#

i do know that the brimstone witch doesnt get killed

split mortar
#

ingame only scal and deus are spared when you beat them in the boss fight
do note that the terrarian is up to you so if you want you can let other bosses live by just not fighting them

pliant ruin
#

Cnidrion may not be a boss but it's also getting a spare option futurely

frozen shard
#

im asking because some bosses just disappear when you kill them, instead of just exploding into pieces

pliant ruin
#

when it gets promoted from regular enemy to Miniboss

split mortar
#

deus isnt shown ingame due to outdated mod
we just beat the rotten food out of it then it leaves

pliant ruin
#

Calamitas, Draedon, Deus and Slime God are the only bosses that survive fighting us

frozen shard
#

well draedon we arent exactly fighting him

pliant ruin
#

And out of those the 4th just ends up getting killed later if you choose to fight quene slime

frozen shard
#

its his creations hes testing us with

split mortar
#

anahita and brimmy technically aswell

pliant ruin
#

Albeit that might be changed if slime god's progression shift gets through but thats a whole othere can of worms

frozen shard
#

does slime god just retreat?

split mortar
#

yeah

pliant ruin
#

Mhm

frozen shard
#

i dont know if i read it in the whisper thing

#

hes a "coward"

young socket
#

instead of the usual death dialogue, it says the fled

pliant ruin
strong compass
#

wasn't it a place for the damned

pliant ruin
#

hell isn't actual literal hell

young socket
#

no its the underworld

#

like

pliant ruin
#

actually

split mortar
#

hell isnt literal hell its just a lava cave that is big

pliant ruin
#

melon

#

y did you even call it hell

frozen shard
young socket
#

a literal world under the normal world

pliant ruin
#

its not even called hell ingame

#

its literally just not even called hell

young socket
#

its an open space with life in it

split mortar
pliant ruin
#

It's just that you really can't fight him

young socket
#

since like

#

ppl kinda stopped living there as much it seems

pliant ruin
#

Draedon isn't a single entity he's more of a operational system than anything

frozen shard
#

is he?

pliant ruin
#

Exo mechs are as much Draedon as his scout bodies are

young socket
#

yes hes a robot

split mortar
#

the guys about as immortal as the internet

frozen shard
#

what

#

i just found that out

pliant ruin
#

The body you find him in ingame is just one of many scout bodies he has and he dosen't have like a central body or anything

split mortar
#

draedon is a artificial intelligence the guy has backups everywhere

pliant ruin
#

He runs through code, he's a robot

frozen shard
#

so hes a robot that create robots

pliant ruin
#

Yep

young socket
#

theyre more like advanced auto targetting turrets

#

yes he controls it but it works on its own mainly

pliant ruin
#

To b fair

#

He could probably control them if he wanted to
It's just that like that's just worse

young socket
frozen shard
#

was draedon ever a person?

pliant ruin
#

Maybe

#

young socket
#

unclear

pliant ruin
#

Intentionally left ambiguous

#

but the possibility's there

#

Personally i believe it yeah

frozen shard
#

hmmm

young socket
#

he woke up next to a dead person with a bunch of machinery attached

pliant ruin
#

Not Confirmed ™ though and never will

#

As, again

#

intentionally ambiguous

frozen shard
#

i like it like that

#

lets you figure out yourself

pliant ruin
#

mhm

frozen shard
#

why is queen slime stronger than slime god

strong compass
pliant ruin
#

nah

#

the dead people are like everywhere actually like

young socket
pliant ruin
#

zombies and shit

#

theres no like designed palce for them to go to

#

underworld isnt biblical hell, as the others have said

split mortar
#

yeah the undead just kinda exist

pliant ruin
#

It's just a big ass lava cave under the surface

#

it's an literal Under World, as tsuki said, not Hell

strong compass
#

ok

#

yet demons spawn...?

split mortar
#

demons are just a tribal species iirc

#

not as advanced as people but not wild animal

#

iirc

strong compass
#

calamity mod demons aren't inherently evil, just species that exist?

pliant ruin
#

yeah

frozen shard
#

i think every mob in terraria and calamity is evil

pliant ruin
#

they're not like manifestations of evil they're just Dudes

frozen shard
#

they just attack you

pliant ruin
#

so true oomfie

frozen shard
#

so from what ive seen

#

dark and light are evil

split mortar
#

how is light evil?

frozen shard
split mortar
#

yeah ik

#

why is that evil

frozen shard
#

the mobs are attacking you

#

i dont know about empress of light

#

i kill this butterfly then she spawns and tries to kill me

#

i guess im in the wrong?

split mortar
# frozen shard i guess im in the wrong?

yeah, the hallowed gods are good gods hence why yharim doesnt mention it directly
the hallowed enemies prob attack you cause the gods cant fully control the creatures on account of being dead

pliant ruin
#

I mean to b efair

#

most things attack you in terraria

#

😭

real glen
#

They don't attack each other...
But that's just gameplay so

dusk laurel
#

unicorn killing every single corruption enemy and spawning in the hive mind

young socket
#

hilarious

#

unicorn solos tbh

split mortar
#

make hivemind post ml but dont change its summon method so new players suffer the jumpscare

untold oracle
#

Idk i saw that pfp alongside the word demon and felt like saying it

Pretend im Yharim and youre told to kill your students because they betrayed the crusade

mighty zenith

#

long live the yharim administration

scenic olive
spark spoke
#

Hai

#

I need Yharim lore

#

As a temporary placeholder I wrote him into an peasant orphan

#

But I feel that’s not canon

long bloom
#

he was raised in some sort of cult and was destined to consume yharon's soul and become the god-king, but he said fuck that so they threw him in lava
causing yharon to hatch and save him

spark spoke
#

Wow…

long bloom
#

yharon then told him about how the gods killed all the dragons, yharim got pissed and started the crusade

spark spoke
#

Huh

#

Why did the gods kill the dragons

#

Also

#

Yharon can talk???

long bloom
long bloom
spark spoke
#

Perhaps he can write

#

Literate dragon lol

#

Anyways

spark spoke
long bloom
#

how so

spark spoke
#

In the fanon, the existence of gods predates the existence of dragons.

long bloom
#

ah

#

yeah that's

#

not correct

#

xeroc, the first god, ascended to godhood in the year 1037

spark spoke
#

Wait

long bloom
#

many thousands of years after dragons showed up

spark spoke
#

Isn’t Xeroc the same guy as Nameless Deity of Light?

long bloom
#

wrath of the gods isn't canon

#

at all

spark spoke
#

WHAT

split mortar
#

Wotg is not official

long bloom
#

no addons are canon

spark spoke
#

WELP. Total rewrite time.

long bloom
#

also nameless deity isn't xeroc anymore

split mortar
#

And nameless was based on old scrapped lore of xeroc before the big rewrite

spark spoke
#

There was a rewrite?

split mortar
#

Yeah over 2 years ago new writers came and are rewriting the entire lore

spark spoke
#

Sorry, I’m a bit new to calamity

long bloom
#

all calamity lore got overhauled in early 2022

spark spoke
#

Btw, is Cthulhu still canon to calamity?

split mortar
#

No

long bloom
#

in the pins of this channel, there's a google doc with all the lore in the game

spark spoke
#

Oh thx

long bloom
spark spoke
split mortar
#

Ml isnt cthulhu

long bloom
#

vanilla lore isn't canon either

split mortar
#

Draedon made mech bosses

long bloom
#

moonlord is just a space creature

spark spoke
#

Oh.

split mortar
long bloom
#

i was saying that in reference to his origins

spark spoke
#

I was gonna introduce some custom characters based on existing lore, but I guess that’s not gonna work.

heavy zenith
#

DoG is an interdimensional creature lol

split mortar
long bloom
#

he solod half of all the dragons, for one

split mortar
#

At once

spark spoke
long bloom
#

we dunno

spark spoke
split mortar
#

Something distortion or noxus related but we dunno

spark spoke
#

I feel gods aren’t as powerful in calamity as they are in other media.

long bloom
#

they are not

spark spoke
#

Dang

long bloom
#

calamity intentionally doesn't scale very high

split mortar
#

god is a vague word

spark spoke
#

Can I… pitch my fanon lore anyways? It’s worth a shot before I throw it all in the trash

long bloom
#

go for it

heavy zenith
#

No info is given on how he became, but there is speculation that he's part of a theoretical hive mind that's controlled by an unnamed powerful being, devs confirming it to be Noxus in this thread

#

@spark spoke ^

spark spoke
#

Ah

#

Thx

#

Oh also

heavy zenith
#

He does come from the Distortion though, in which Noxus is the ruler and controller of said hive mind

#

Maybe it isn't confirmed in game, only a theory by Draedon

spark spoke
#

What’s the creation theory for calamity mod?

long bloom
#

?

heavy zenith
#

Here I'll just link my video

#

The first chapter I go over is everything we know about creation

long bloom
#

hold your horses

long bloom
heavy zenith
spark spoke
long bloom
#

the big bang probably

#

it's not talked about

#

at all

spark spoke
#

And then dragons just… evolved???

long bloom
#

yeah

#

but at one point, there might've been a a world soul that shattered into fragments, imbuing the dragons with the auric power

split mortar
split mortar
long bloom
split mortar
long bloom
#

ok

spark spoke
#

Hm

#

What would be the theoretical impact if I created a mysterious entity called the “Astral Dome” that basically splits the world into the canon half and let my fanon content originate from beyond this veil?

long bloom
#

whuh

spark spoke
#

Imagine giant force field made of stars

long bloom
#

i mean

#

i guess

split mortar
#

Draedon would like to science it

spark spoke
heavy zenith
#

Nah he got it

#

Let him cook

spark spoke
#

Lol

long bloom
#

he doesn't have ftl yet

zenith geode
#

he's not exactly on a strict timer like humans are though

long bloom
#

true

heavy zenith
#

I think it's so funny that he wants to start mining resources on the moon but he's probed other dimensions lmao

spark spoke
split mortar
#

Yeah draedon has literally eternity to science stuff

spark spoke
#

What even is draedon

long bloom
#

robot

split mortar
#

A artificial intelligence with the goal of science until there is nothing left to science

zenith geode
long bloom
zenith geode
#

he kinda couldnt do anything about the evil guy

long bloom
#

was possibly a failed consciousness transfer

heavy zenith
#

Yeah that's true

#

Idk I feel Draedon could figure out a portal to the distortion if he felt like, cosmolite is stronger than luminite after all

#

Unless Noxus has power over all portals to and from the Dist.

long bloom
#

he's not very big on magic though

heavy zenith
#

That's fair yeah

i fucking love malachite

#

best crystal

#

best rogue weapon too

spark spoke
#

It’s copper but rusted

long bloom
zenith geode
#

actually its corrosion

spark spoke
zenith geode
#

rust is specifically a compound between iron and oxygen

spark spoke
long bloom
#

i'm more confused

#

just nvm

spark spoke
#

Is green

long bloom
#

yes

#

how is this related to malachite

spark spoke
mighty zenith
#

malachite literally is oxidised copper

spark spoke

Oxidised copper ore

You know what else is oxidised copper

mighty zenith

It is tho

#

It’s waxed slightly oxidised copper

#

Albeit it’s 3/4ths of a cubic meter of copper…

#

-anyways we’re getting off topic

#

Uh

#

Are there any other canonically living dragons in calamity apart from Yharon?

#

(And Betsy)

zenith geode
#

betsy is fake

spark spoke
#

(Wut)

zenith geode
#

crossover content is non canon

young socket
#

any crossover content isnt canon

spark spoke
#

Aw

young socket
#

and also yharon is the last auric dragon so like

#

wat do u think

mighty zenith
#

there are other dragons but he's the last auric dragon

spark spoke
#

What types of dragons are there?

long bloom
#

a lot

young socket
#

i highly recommend you read the pinned document

zenith geode
#

offshoots like fishrons and wyrms

mighty zenith
#

offshoots, range from stuff like dragonfolly to eidolon wyrms

Wyverns
Duke fishron
Eidolon wyrms
Dragonfolly

Thise are some

#

pig fish dragon

spark spoke
#

Oh

long bloom
#

there's currently 13 auric dragons that we know of but the actual number is in the high hundreds

#

they're all dead tho

zenith geode
#

yharon will undead soon

long bloom
#

true

spark spoke
#

Does this mean I can make a dracolich boss?

long bloom
#

who has the dragon list again

zenith geode
#

the only way to actually kill yharon is to eat his soul iirc

long bloom
#

yeah

split mortar
long bloom
#

i feel like you should provide context for that

split mortar
#

Yharons soul goes to the dragons aerie on death

long bloom
#

the dragon aerie

spark spoke
#

Oh

young socket
spark spoke
long bloom
#

bc yharon is the dragon of rebirth, his soul specifically teleports to the aerie when he dies

#

no other dragon does that

spark spoke
long bloom
#

👍

heavy zenith
#

No other dragon does that cuz they all dead

zenith geode
#

also because yharon's domain is rebirth

heavy zenith
#

That too

long bloom
#

yeah we don't need to do semantics

#

just makes it more confusing

heavy zenith
#

Wait so like God's have access to the Aerie then right? Since they had yharons egg ready to be turned into a soul?

#

Unless they caught him lacking

long bloom
#

only dragon monks iirc

#

but there could've been another dragon monk god that took the egg

heavy zenith
#

Oh so monks are like issued to dragons as an advisor or...

long bloom
#

not established

#

dragon monks were just guys serving the dragons in the aerie

my favorite calamity mode character is demon slayer

prime trench
#

Why is slime god weaker than queen slime I don't get it, is there more lore about this

glacial rampart
#

uh

#

well slime god existed as a pre-hm boss

#

in the mod

#

then terraria added queen slime in hardmode

#

so they made queen slime a paladin that ends up trapping slime god

#

which is kind of stupid hdflr

#

iirc though some aspect of it might get changed down the line

#

to make more sense

pliant ruin
#

Was the way the devs found to make queen slime's existence make sense

#

Might be changed if slime god ends up getting the potential progression changes that move it to mid hardmode though

scenic olive
#

Emperor Slime, slime god with the flesh of Moon Lord

spark spoke
#

a dumb idea for sure, but would make thematic sense.

mighty zenith
#

then there'd be two slime bosses right next to each other

pliant ruin
#

Much easier to just move slime god lel

also
queen slime is

a hallow boss

(this is a sarcastic way of saying that you’d have to change everything else to make that work)

my favourite calamity progression change

#

steampunker pre-hardmode

untold oracle
#

Huh wha

#

Really?

scenic yacht
#

thats not calamity

pliant ruin
#

i'm pretty sure it was a joke

split mortar
#

Its another joke about qs pre hardmode

scenic yacht
#

oh i wasnt paying attention to this channel XD

north wigeon
split mortar
#

Otherwise yharim would have been FUCKED at the start of the crusade

#

Ravager and providence are especially strong gods

#

While slimegod is a weak or average god

#

Weak if it stays pre hardmode or average if it gets moved to calclones spot

scenic yacht
#

yeah, there is no set power level for gods

#

what makes them a god is completely separate from their strength although they all have some innate strength

#

slime god only lived that long because its good at running the fuck away when it needs to

#

and then got stuck in queen slime

split mortar
#

Btw if sg goes to calclone then qs would be a rebelling paladin and not a paladin that absorbed sg

north wigeon
#

okay but even regardless of power level it's pretty dumb for sg to have an after-the-fact justification of qs just to stay where it is

split mortar
#

Its not a justification to keep sg pre hardmode

#

sg wasnt gonna be moved so they had to make a reason

north wigeon
#

it's like one tier removed from calclone existing because cal was moved and people wanted the slot there still/were into the bait and switch or whatever
as a "cal fakeout"

north wigeon
#

instead of having it be at a good and fitting place in lore more lore has to be made to sustain the status quo as a copout

split mortar
#

It wasnt gonna be moved cause fabsol so its not on the fault of like the lore devs or anyone else

Proposed changes to where sg is has happened now they can move sg

#

Those proposed changes being that it could switch with calclone

north wigeon
#

I'd prefer that but I still think they didn't go hard enough tbh

split mortar
#

Didnt go hard enough on what

pliant ruin
#

Given that the developers are actually considering moving slime god now

#

Again, wasn't really their fault

#

the queen slime thing is dumb yeah but it's the best they could've done

#

Not like they could've changed the boss much let alone move its progression spot with the Evil Man around

north wigeon
#

we are in a post-Evil Man era, yeah?

pliant ruin
#

Yeah

#

And Slime God is probably being moved

#

And with that the queen slime lore bit would die

#

Probably recton queen slime to just being a failed/rebel paladin or we/

#

w/e

#

my grammar

#

my english

#

im cheese

north wigeon
split mortar
#

Proposed changes the devs have mentioned

north wigeon
pliant ruin
#

I mean

#

I think it being in hm is the best possible option

split mortar
#

If slimegod is post ml that entails the guy is among the strongest gods

pliant ruin
#

If it was post moon lord it'd probably be early post moon lord/pre providence
Which already is getting alot of bosses as is yeah. Profaned Guardians, Astrum Deus, Evil2, Ceaseless Void

split mortar
#

To the same level as providence or not too far behind

pliant ruin
#

And yeah the lore implications are kind of wack

#

Slime God is meant to be sort of the weakest god

#

Having the weakest god be right before one of the strongest is uh

#

Yeah

north wigeon
#

do we have any other gods in hm at least

pliant ruin
#

Nah

scenic yacht
#

currently ravager is... partly, eventually no

north wigeon
#

so it's less weird that you encounter a weak god but still a god pre plantera and nothing until ml?/postml

scenic yacht
#

since its planned to be moved

#

Yharim happened so yeah makes sense a lot of gods would just

#

Dead

pliant ruin
#

Clone's track can still work even with the progression changes

split mortar
scenic yacht
#

as i said, slime god is currently alive not because its strong but because it ran away, a lot of things stronger then it got murked already

pliant ruin
#

Because Cryogen and Brimstone Elemental come after calclone so, you could argue it's more so foreshadowing
+It makes sense with them being related to calamitas Very Directly

#

I think with the plans the devs have i much prefer pre hm calclone for a good few reasons

#
  1. Hardmode has way too many bosses as is
  2. Calclone fills the empty "Final pre hm boss" space left by slime god
  3. Calclone being the fianl pre hm boss just goes hard. It's a fakeout ending basically. You fight Calamitas except Not Actually
  4. Narratively it opens up some really fucking cool possibilities. As devs ahve said you fight what you Think calamitas is in pre hardmode, the wrathful witch that destroys others in vengeance, but you get to hardmode and the first boss you fight is cryogen, which results in you talking to permafrost and from there you get to slowly know the Real calamitas

Lea channel when

pliant ruin
#

Minor Issue

#

The rest all feel fine to me

#

Plantera is more or less equal in strenght too so

mighty zenith
#

aureus too powerful

scenic yacht
#

true

feral skiff
#

i could imagine someone doing a blind playthrough going “that’s it? the mod is over?”

#

then they get into hardmode and realise that the playthrough is only about 25% complete

north wigeon
#

didn't the devs already remove the calclone fakeout shenanigans

#

what's the value of readding it exactly

#

you learn about it once, hell 0 times if you look into it whatsoever before fighting her

#

and you alr know of a jillion bosses postml

how many new blind players exist at this point in the year of our lord 2025
is it worth cheapening the plot in favor of a fakeout gag for new players

also yeah wdym by gag

Been wondering

#

Can a dragon be attuned to multiple people?

split mortar
#

We dont know

long bloom
#

yeah i doubt that's established yet

wheat walrus
light linden
#

Hmm

#

Actually

#

If hotog was canon I wonder if yharim would be opposed to ascending himself with goozma's soul

long bloom
#

he would probably see it as tainted or impure

split mortar
light linden
#

Or hell what yharon would think of both a new auric soul being made and it being from something that isn't a dragon

split mortar
#

Its not a auric dragon so it prob doesnt fit their bias

light linden
#

Especially what held it being stronger than him

split mortar
#

Yeah i think yharim would prob not mind as much as a auric dragon dying
But
The guy would prob still be a bit miffed about it

light linden
#

Since it represents the possibility of new auric dragons

#

Or even something similar to them

#

Unsure of how intelligent the resulting beings would be though

#

Since Goozma's first action upon being created/summoned is to attack us

split mortar
#

Its a slime it has the desire to endlessly consume

obsidian flint
light linden
#

Actually this all reminds me of something

obsidian flint
light linden
#

Ngl I thought the lore for the slime god being hostile was that it got taken over by the crimson/corruption

#

Instead of its design being outdated

split mortar
#

Fair enough

light linden
#

And that the queen slime was the slime god's remains that got reanimated by the hallow

#

But uh back to goozma

#

What powers are even a result of its auric soul?

#

I doubt all of em, it was formed by a lot of slimes with different powers

split mortar
light linden
#

My guess was control of the visible light spectrum and most basic elements

#

Since it uses stone, lightning, fire, and water against us in its fight iirc

split mortar
#

And nuclear fission/fusion (forgor which) iirc

light linden
#

That might mean it can use radiation too

#

Ngl something I've been wondering

#

Has it ever been said how much of the light spectrum Xeroc can control?

didnt the dragonfolly used to be a clone of yharon

old lore

alpine jetty
#

yea thought so

#

why did they get rid of all the jungle relation btw

young socket
#

it didnt add anything and just added to already bloated jungle content

alpine jetty
#

oh alr alr

cosmic zenith
#

Not to mention the fact Yharim had all these jungle connections yet nothing related to him ever showed up in the Jungle

young socket
#

yea

#

yharon: came from jungle
yharim: lives in jungle

#

and that was to the extent of jungle connections

alpine jetty
#

ok so a few questions

#

who the fuck is braelor

#

and why does calamitas actually actually hate yharim

#

is it because of the super genocide or what

scenic yacht
#

Braelor is silva's champion basically. and cal hating yharim was primarily due to her being tasked with killing her former teacher or whatever (permafrost) after he defected due to yharim's goals becoming more of just being a tyrant instead of justice

carmine otter
#

in terms of time, (decades, millenia, millions of years) how long ago was the Draconic Era?

eager bluff
#

centuries

#

dont remember the exact time but IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN it was somewhere around like 6 or 700 years ago

alpine jetty
#

i dont really get the braelor and silva stuff

#

i know she was like

#

the god of life or something

#

but idrk her deal

tropic oak
#

we dont exactly know when it started

carmine otter
#

okei

tropic oak
#

pre-history era is at least 2000 years ago because the dragon aerie is implied to be older than that

scenic yacht
#

draedon says the aerie and yharon have likely been around for at least 2000 years but he cant exactly do a proper analysis on a place he cant find

tropic oak
#

the gray period starts 1037, then in the 12th century, the deific era begun and lasted until the 16th century

#

the crusade begins exactly on 6/19/1781 (17th century) and is still going on to this day

#

we start the game sometime in 1887ish

#

hope dat helps :)

alpine jetty
#

what are the things that yharim actually talks about regretting

#

like hes always talking about how much of a bad guy he is but

#

what does he actually regret

tropic oak
eager bluff
#

yharim? not finishing the job

tropic oak
#

unless ur talkin about yharim

alpine jetty
#

oh i meant yharim my bad

alpine jetty
tropic oak
#

he literally congratulates you on killing providence lmfaoooo

eager bluff
#

tbf

#

it is objectively a good thing you killed her

#

she is, like yharim, a war criminal

alpine jetty
#

arent the gods actually evil but yharim just did evil shit to try to kill them

tropic oak
#

debatable

#

some were good

#

(hallow, silva, god of sacrifices)

#

some were evil

eager bluff
tropic oak
#

(providence, etc)

eager bluff
#

yeah

#

theres a huge amount of variance between gods like silva and gods like providence

alpine jetty
#

didnt they like

tropic oak
#

i guess slime good is a good guy?

alpine jetty
#

kill dragons to get their power tho

tropic oak
#

keeping balance and whatnot

alpine jetty
#

and eat their souls

tropic oak
#

thats yharims whole justification for killing the gods

#

but some gods, despite murdering a dragon for their soul, are still generally good people

#

tyrian and ontoilou (?) would be good examples as well

eager bluff
tropic oak
#

they were generally good rulers over their people

#

silva is a good god and is one of two to share her domain directly with the dragon she killed

alpine jetty
eager bluff
#

tyrian and otonilou were pretty good people yeah

tropic oak
#

the god of sacrifices (ravager) was also a pretty good guy

#

he gave his body (literally) to those that were harmed and restored their bodies

#

the reason ravager looks like that upon being revived into that flesh monster is because people THOUGHT he was evil

alpine jetty
#

so is yharim still the same super evil guy in the lore items or is he like

#

remorseful at all

#

cause i always got the impression he felt bad

tropic oak
#

both

#

well, yes, he’s trying to manipulate you

#

that’s his wholeeee thing

alpine jetty
#

wait did i get manipulated bibi

tropic oak
#

yes

eager bluff
alpine jetty
#

what is he trying to manipulate us to od

tropic oak
#

finish the job

eager bluff
#

finish the job

tropic oak
#

he wants us to be his successor in a way

glacial rampart
#

Yharim is not remorseful about doing that stuff he did
he's just remorseful that he made a child do a genocide

alpine jetty
#

wait i actually got manipulated bibi

glacial rampart
#

thats about the extent of his actions that he feels bad about

tropic oak
#

yes you got manipulated

glacial rampart
#

yes you got hardcore manipulated by the genocidal tyrant

hot valve
tropic oak
#

(see: dragon of flame)

#

((he was a huge dick))

hot valve
#

and (while not confirmed) some dragons likely willingly gave up their souls

eager bluff
hot valve
#

Yharim would never let those possibilites stop him from comitting his genocide

glacial rampart
#

not only is yharim the most biased source

tropic oak
#

dogma is gonna get you

glacial rampart
#

all his info on the gods is from THE most biased source Yharon

hot valve
alpine jetty
#

this is the kinda stuff i got gaslightted on

alpine jetty
eager bluff
glacial rampart
alpine jetty
#

is yharon an evil fucking bird

tropic oak
#

yharon is fucking nuts

glacial rampart
#

yharon is the one who radicalized yharim in the first place

hot valve
#

Yharon is the person who convined Yharim to do this

tropic oak
#

he still slides for his master though

alpine jetty
#

before i read the lore i thought yharon was just the chill friend pet thing who just did what yharim said

eager bluff
hot valve
#

Yharon's case is more sympathetic than Yharim's since it was Yharon's own kind that was brought to exctinction, but one genocide does not justify another

glacial rampart
#

imo

hot valve
#

was about to say that also yeah

#

Yharon definitely does not know what went down between xeroc and zeratros

glacial rampart
#

also considering that Yharon was probably fucking dead when a lot of that stuff happened

eager bluff
#

yharon is far more justified in his hatred of the gods than yharim is

hot valve
#

Yharon also is likely purposely leaving out how some dragons were wicked

glacial rampart
#

the actual validity of what happened between Xeroc and Zeratros is up in the air

alpine jetty
glacial rampart
alpine jetty
#

like how many gods did they kill

eager bluff
tropic oak
#
  1. the dragons
#
  1. the gods
hot valve
glacial rampart
tropic oak
#

the dragons went thru genocide at the hands of fovos i think

alpine jetty
#

no no i know

#

ok so i was confused

glacial rampart
#

then AFTER that

tropic oak
#

ye

#

then came something else

glacial rampart
#

they were killed and consumed

tropic oak
alpine jetty
#

i didnt know if the gods got genocided or yknow the cities they blew up to get to the gods

glacial rampart
#

both kind of

hot valve
#

Most gods were slaughtered by Yharim's crusade

alpine jetty
#

so how many gods were there

scenic yacht
#

fovos curb stomped a bunch but they could get revived, then they went through a genocide because people wanted to be gods

alpine jetty
#

cause when i hear gods i think like

#

not that many

scenic yacht
#

then gods got genocided..

hot valve
#

maybe low thousands

eager bluff
#

low thousands yes

alpine jetty
#

ok ok

hot valve
#

There's a good chunk of unnamed, very elusive gods not relevant or present to the continent Calamity takes place on that still live

glacial rampart
alpine jetty
#

so why does consuming an auric soul transform you into some weird amalgamation

twilit skiff
#

idk a single thing abt calamity lore, is there like a doc or a video or something that just has everything presented at once?

alpine jetty
#

like providence

tropic oak
#

that depends

#

im not sure if its public info

hot valve
#

The word 'God' is a word of convenience, Calamaity gods are FAR weaker than any human religion gods

alpine jetty
#

like what even is providence

eager bluff
alpine jetty
#

is it a rock

hot valve
#

what Providence is the goddess of I think is still currently unconfirmed

#

I hear people throw ash around a lot

tropic oak
#

its ash

#

i mistook it for flame but its ash

hot valve
#

Is it actually ash? Makes sense

tropic oak
#

yeee

alpine jetty
#

so they like embody partly the dragons personality or whatever and their own goals

eager bluff
tropic oak
#

she never did a perfect ascension

hot valve
alpine jetty
#

what determines what kinda god they become

#

like why did she become the god of ash

tropic oak
#

ok so

#

there are two kinds of ascensions
