Last I checked.
Damn Permafraud learned potion making from the Minecraft wiki, rookie move.
Ah, I figured it out, that's when Yharim's racist tweets resurfaced. Such horrible things to say about the Lihazhard.
Pretty sure it's confirmed that Cal left before she was an adult still but take that with a grain of salt
But that wouldn't line up with the 'nearly decade' claim, as that would require her to leave before turning 18. Which would mean she served less then five years at most, which is less then half a decade.
So is the claim outdated?
Maybe the writers just hadnt thought out the timeline by the time if writing that
-# ultimately its prob just best to ask a writer for more concrete info
Or the alternative, a decade in the Calamity world is only five years.
And she serves for like, four.
I mean i'm pretty sure she joined when she was like 11 so
Maybe not that exact age i mean but around that
do we know if it was pre-draedon removal or post
that would help quite an amount in estimating
Draedon left after scal left iirc
This would further imply the the most of a decade part is wrong, I believe the same entry said she got her abilities as a teenager. I'll check in a minute.
so pre-draedon would be sometime pre-1875
or wait
i read that wrong
no i didnt i lied
there’s like 100 years to go through to find out when she left 
Like, if we go that she left before being an adult (so say 17 at most), considering the general ballpark for her present age I see is around 28, that would mean her time on the run wouldn't be 5-6 years as I estimated, but over 10.
That would be silly
Calamitas did not serve for nearly a decade
Yeah, found it, her boss bestiary states "After inheriting nigh limitless magical power as a mere teenager, she was recruited into Yharim's army, where she served for nearly a decade."
I take it this is outdated?
Yes, this is incorrect
I'll let the other writers know
Well, that's one mystery solved.
Now to figure out every other mystery we've thrown at each other.
Cant believe whats ingame isnt canon 💔
I think someone slipped up
Thank you for pointing it out
Zoologist is just making stuff up.
Anti-Yharim propaganda.
This explains why dates weren't lining up when I tried to calculate them earlier.
Yeah
The dates were wrong
Anyways pisscord is breaking down or something idk whats happening and its near 2am goodnight lorers
I will place a brick on your head
But basically when I tried to use Draedon's dates and how long he served I got a number that made no sense with the assumption she left at around 22, if he were to leave first.
Ok, so Draedon is supposed to have been cut off around 1875, so Calamitas and Permafrost left a little bit before then.
a great many
Sources: "While the Crusade is widely considered to have begun on the date of 6.19.1781 with Yharon's rebirth, I took no part in it until 4.23.1803." "I would be presented with many other opportunities throughout the next seventy-two years:"
ya they left pre-1875
perma sooner than cal so we gotta go a mild amount further backward
i would assume (given the poor girl was already mentally exhausted) probably 1-6 months time after perma
But she was sent after him, so it probably wasn't that big of a gap. There was enough time for Draedon to get orders to recreate Calamitas' power and develop the plague.
Then like, a decade of living in caves.
i was about to iterate that it was more than likely sooner than a month
“go kill ya father” yeah alright man
Like, it probably wouldn't have been too hard to find him, he was probably in the Tundra he created, it'd be the first place I'd check.
So, the good news is, less war crimes were commited by her. The bad news, we've double the time she spent at her absolute worst standard of living.
We've traded psychological trauma for physical trauma.
Permafrost didnt make the tundra
He enchanced it, I meant.
Like, it existed prior, but he made it bigger, and more metal.
Also it's two am why are you up.
Big difference between making the cold a bit more potent and
Making the damn place
its 9 pm brotha
2 am
Time zones, Johnathan.
maybe you should have said that to yourself when you wondered why im up at 2 am your time

I have no excuse i just shouldnt be
Aye, fair enough.
Execution.
Y’all think people in-universe made fanfics about Yharim
Xeroc's the one who talks in boss rush. Yharim's the one who talks in the lore items.
who’s xeroc 😭
A monk from a very long time ago who became the first God by consuming the soul of the auric dragons king. He became the god of Primordial Light (sun) and is the most powerful being in the lore.
ah ok
so im guessing yharim is somewhere below him
There's a little more we know but that's the sum of it
yharim couldn't do jackshit to him 
It goes
1 Xeroc
2 Prime Moon Lord / Fovos
3 Noxus
4 Yharim
idk who noxus or fovos is
😭
well ive heard of noxus
Pretty sure a dev gave a rough estimate it would take 40 Yharim's to kill Xeroc
dang
fovos = moonlord
fovos is just moonlords actual name
oh ok
noxus is a being from The Distortion
Noxus is the ruler of the Distortion dimension (Home of Devourer of Gods). Fovos is Moon Lord from a very long time ago (Current one is weak af)
whom we know nigh nothing about
ohhh
other than the fact that hes in there, seemingly high in the order, and he fucked shit up
Well, compared to when he was back then
Yeah, besides what I said. We know quite literally nothing else about Noxus other than he's the same type of being as Signus
fovos is just another title for it we don't actually know if that is its real name
oh
my fault og
Fovos and ML are both equally correct titles. Not it's real name though (If it has one)
i love calamity lore
i would imagine fovos' name changes depending on which place you ask
because clearly it has armies
fovos probably doesn't even have a name
like dog
I mean it seems sentient enough that it could have one that it knows
possibly
His name is calamaritas
going by what's in-game, noxus doesn't even exist right now
all we have is an implication that there's something scary in the Distortion

One thing im confused on is the ordering of events near the latter half of the crusade era, many interpretations mix up the timeline, the events in specific being
- Was calamitas recruited before after draedon's recruitment? before or after the devourer's?
- Did calamitas leave after imprisoning permafrost or after incinerating azafure fighting against the b. elemental?
One thing that stays consistent is that permafrost left, then calamitas left, then draedon was "exiled", then the devourer went away because yharon went back to the aerie, but even then im not sure of that, and unsure of when each of those joined yharim (i know for a fact that permafrost was among the first)
also one logical leap, if zeratros fell against prime fovos, how is xeroc supposedly more powerful than prime fovos?
i JUST got into the lore, im confused at how squishy the timeline and even names are
scal joined as a direct result of azafure, she left after perma got cryogend
scal was recruited after draedon, i believe its unclear if it was before or after dog
training
lots and lots of training
and even before ascending he was already strong as fuck
several centuries to be more specific
ml vs zeratros was definitely more one-sided than a theoretical xeroc vs prime moon lord but it was also even enough for zeratros to be able to actually survive the fight
also the "oath" mentioned for the monk that xeroc was, is that intentionally ambiguous or is that oath described in any way?
like what it even entails, usually oaths are a promise or covenant of some kind
intentionally ambiguous by direct wordage but the way its worded in the lore item implies the oath is at least partly to ensure dragons can undergo rebirth at the aerie
which is to say it doesnt tell you outright but with context clues you can piece together at the very least the relevant portion
Trust no-one, not even the writers
Fovos does not describe prime moonlord 💔
Draedon was recruited about 22 years into the crusade, which lasted over a hundred years. Calamitas is in her late twenties, generally people put her at around 28. Calamitas leaves shortly after Permafrost and fakes his death on or shortly before the year 1875. Brimstone Elemental is the first major thing to happen to Calamitas, and it's where she gets the abilities. She joins Yharim shortly after. The Devourer was hired most likely between Draedon and Calamitas, and is the point Yharim considers things to have gone downhill for him. Devourer I'd assume had been around for at least a decade before Calamitas joined. Oh, and also Calamitas was a child soldier.
Oh, and Supreme Witch, Calamitas' bestiary entry is wrong, so don't use it to try and figure things out, it will get the dates wrong.
That is quite literally what happens.
"He yet lives?! I thought him slain by Calamitas. It appears she imprisoned the Archmage to spare his life."
Isn't the bestiary a bit behind in modern lore?
Yeah, that's why I'm saying not to use it.
It claims she fought for Yharim longer then she did, and maybe even joined later then she did.
Not the calamity enemy entries
One of the writers just fumbled when making scal entry
Zoologist making propaganda. When will we break free from the shackles of that furry's tyranny!?
what if yharim is furry under that mask
IIRC there's a plan to update vanilla bestiary at some point
Yeah they have already done so and its waiting on sso to come out
Is that why he's racist towards lizard people?
hmm Yharons feathered though
so maybe
Well Calamitas fakes his death for him
I doubt he was particularly happy about being sealed in a big ice cube for like
4 years?
Yeah, I was saying she faked his death.
And it seems to be closer to ten or more.
Hell, even my old estimates put it closer to 6.
Ah my bad I was extrapolating john's response & your original post
But the whole almost a decade thing is wrong, and she also may have started earlier.
So the numbers being thrown out is she left before becoming an adult (18), so around 16, more likely 17.
And if she's around 28... that's over a decade.
Being homeless.
I guess I always assumed she served for the last decade of the Crusades
As like an organized thing anyway
From what I know, Crusade only ended very recently, like within a year or so.
We all know Yharim eventually wandered off & started going bloodfrenzy
Yharim's failed assassination and subsequent departure would undoubtedly end it if it was ongoing.
Also I don't think it's ever established if the whole freezing him in some kind of snowgrave was Calamitas' idea or Permafrosts.
I dont really have a good answer for that
It's made for offence, nor defence I guess.
*some king
if you're doing the bit you need to get the mispelling right
DAMN IT!
True it is purely used offensively
Presumably it could be made into armor as it is a substance of nearly limitless potential
brimstone resonance
What is brimstone resonance
Depression vibes.
I love sulphur armour.
so you rub it on some cloth
Something something alchemy.
No I mean the magic that makes the fire go brr would be in the shit the fire brred & so you use that to make armor
Is that like Cylops punch dimension

its a cool set
Maybe she gets her power from the trauma dimension.
its fucked up that fathom swarmer has such good stats & looks so ugly
Because you would fucking die
By wearing it?
does it just absorbs me
The miracle of [Death].
Or is it death by radiation
Thats what it does to the items you put onto it so yeah you would prob just liquidate into it
miracle blight
It reconstructs you into something [New and Improved!]
It turns me into

What if Miracle Matter has its own Conciousness
Like the Miracle Conciousness Realm
A Collective Consciousness of some kind?
yes
That's not the fantastic four gif.
Since it has Auric Bar in it, it also has Auric Soul too
wait i just realized...

Mgr reference
but does it control?
will i see?
Does it control your soul?
Does it control your soul?
Does it control, your, soul!?
[sick asf synthed electric guitar solo]
So why doesnt it just absorbs every single thing it touches
It's nice like that.
is it because of the soul used in Auric Bar?
Unfortunately, it does not like the human skeleton.
because you put it in the atomizing forge
like maybe it does the opposite of auric rejection
cirua acception
It eats your electric signals causing brain death and heart failure?
You get Spring Locked, like some king of Spring Trap...
only accepts things that it deems worthy
luckily it's very racist & hates sapient life
It'd get along with Yharim.
Nah itll kill Yharim
"Genderfluid" 
yeah it really works as a pun
The soul of Terraria from Fargos 
Wasn't it Draedon?
He added exo enhancements to it
But it's believed either Yharim forged the armor himself or it was the property of a now-dead dragon monk bestowed to him by Yharon
Draedon likely also gets discriminated against by auric
(It's the opposite actually
)
how would he
he is not a living creature. he cannot blow up, surely
because the terrarian isnt attuned with a dragon and is a living creature
draedon is a robot.
you could make the same argument like
why doesnt the stone thats touching the auric ore blow up?
it isnt living
Accurate 
Cuz gameplay style that makes no sense
It never moves to touch the ore and thus never activates the rejection
-# idfk auric is weird
i want you to reread what i said very carefully
I think Dreadon counts as alive
Then when you place a block touching the ore it technically moves. Why no boom then
how so
Did you miss the part where i said idfk auric is weird
Well he has all the aspects of a sapient being, just one made of steel instead of flesh
& it is implied his mind is that of an old scientist who transmitted his counsciousness into a machine so
Does draedon have a soul
but he is not living
he cannot be blown up because he is not a living creature
he does not have a soul
he is a Thing
Oh ok i didnt think we were getting robot racist
i mean auric rejection works on golf balls
surely this means he can touch auric without blowing up
But machines can blow up
im electing to ignore this
he gonna call him a clanker next 🥀
i was just about to get to that
Anyway we dont know if Draedon has a soul you cant just assume he doesnt
ive been referring to draedon and the mechs as clankers constantly through my current playthru with friends. very funny.

they also work on enemies that also arent alive or organic as far as i know like i dontknow Granite Elemental
thank you star wars i forgot how funny you were 🥀
You can’t say that….
im gonna keep it 💯
im gonna spawn draedon on auric ore and see what happens
I mean thorium adds 3 whole new type of fragments but you don't see them adding 3 new pillars 
Why r u responding to messages that were sent months ago
What would their name even be 
thats melons gimmick
im with john what the hell are you doing
I did it like one time 😭
Moonlord is the meld pillar
u can just call me tyrant, brother, someone nick’d me this months ago and i cant change it
Meld pillar is when you mush the others together, thus meld.
what do you mean one time you do it like every week and ahalf
John Vcmm
????
sorry man ur johnnow
the god of sacrifices when i unearth him and force him to face the corner
thats rough
sometimes yharim gets drunk in the aerie and constantly spouts stuff about draedon and constantly calls him a clanker
it’s not so bad. im vcmm guy now
heart may own the mod but im the coolest poster boy they’ll get
truth
Yharim when he meets the god of child soldiers.
im very partial to this headcanon
infact i will treat it as canon and start spreading it as misinformation
When will the mass misinformation spreading start
when the next conversation about him comes up
Yharim is deiphobic confirmed 
what are you doing
time to come up with an insult for gods if we have clanker for robots
crucify all godmodders

Death penalty
need an insult for elementals
Usurper
I think
this is gonna be hard
Too fancy
drake eater
holy crap is that the calamity structure builder of all time
Whaur
Dirty brother killers.
no thats for humans
Looked like a monster to me.
swifties
u build cool as fuck shit
Calamitas probably doesn't approve of the Heart of the Elements.
i draw inspiration from u all the time bro
That's awesome
yeah im gonna keep it real with u i cant come up with anything
I'm unable to channel the racism needed.
elementcels 🤔
i don’t think she’d particularly mind, nor care for that matter, however i think it would be quite silly if you had the rose stone equipped and she had some special dialogue
Which is part of the Heart of the Elements.
Like, you're hanging out with the thing that ruined her life.
i think yharim ruined her life king im not gonna lie
Burning your city and probably killing your family is kinda life ruining.
Yharim made it worse, sure.
I mean, his armor is probably airtight
But like, either way she ends up homeless.
Yeah, but she's been like, orphaned thrice. I'd hold out on signing any adoption papers.
@pliant ruin quick, say something in character
what are you talking about brother
orphaned thrice??
more like twice
Her parents are dead, her brothers looked after her, then they died, then her adopted dad got snowgraved, like yeah he lived but it kinda counts.
calamitas seeing youhave the rose stone would be like awkward
thank you calamitas this has been very enlightening
i dont think shed outright hate you for it or anything like it wouldnt be lke pulling up with yharim but itd still be like awkward
I mean, they don't say it anywhere, but it's kinda implied Brimstone Elemental killed Cataclysm and Catastrophe.

brimmy and all of the elementals really semeingly with the major exception of silva are like nature spirit type creatures andi feel like enough time has passed for calamitas to be mature enough to not like outright hate her because its kind of pointless doing so its like hating an earthquake i guess
itd more so just bring back bad memories i feel and seeing you wield its power would be awkward and possibly offputting but i'm not sure if it'd outright incite hate or anything it'd be kind of like seeing someone use auric armor like yharim while not being yharim
Are they the Underworld content?
dude can you like stop
please
it couldve been maybe a little funny if you just randomly responded to a message form like 3 years ago with a funny response but now its just like ok
im going to consume the auric soul of the dragon of kicking ass
You are now the foot god. Poor soul.
raelvanna stands no chance
Raelvanna dead as hell
ok then let’s beat the shit out of silva until she releases her auric soul, wait for yharon to rebirth, have HIS ass revive Raelvanna, then kick her ass
great plan 2 me
Who's Raelvanna?
(this is assuming silva would ever let go of her soul knowing she…can’t exactly die.
)
Name for dragon of life
Ironic.
oops! domain changed!
Enjoy dominion over feet, I guess.
you know thats not exactly the worst domain
also yharim is behind you
FUCK !!!!!!!!!!!
it was nice to meet you buddy....
Oh, you misunderstand.
I guess that works
I think that once a god absorbs an Auric soul, that it; it's gone for good, and now the God's soul is all that exists.
Otherwise, why wouldn't Yharon have used his powers of rebirth on the souls of the gods that the Crusade did manage to kill?
If you could rip the Auric soul that a god consumed out of them, I don't think a way to imprison or destroy godly essence would be necessary.
it is a fundamental law of the universe that matter cannot be destroyed or created
surely auric souls cannot be destroyed
It can be transformed though, and not all transformations work both ways
Thats true, that is how it works, it completely ceases to be an auric soul
It becomes a God Soul & it's an irreversible process
okay then replace the auric soul within my sentence to god soul
then if its taken out of the god, like dying, it explodes
where’s that said
Thats what essence is
Profaned Essence or whatever its called is exploded god soul
I think that would just function like the Profaned Soul Artifact where you turn into a tiny copy of the god you stole from.
Still incredibly useful and powerful, but probably not what you're looking for.
where’s that said
Also uh, Silva cant die
dev statements
great.
Unless you kill all forms of life ever
silva will continue to exist in some state
it was a hypothetical scenario i honest to god just wanted to fight raelvanna
Oh yeah I think essence is also brought up in the DoG lore item
It's also a fairly reasonable thing to infer.
The Crimson, which was made from the putrid essence of a dead god, bleeds Ichor from many of the powerful beings created in its boundaries.
Tbh its kind of such engrained knowledge I couldnt put it to a single source
you guys are getting way too technical over a halfassed joke
great! thanks for the lesson, i suppose, but i still want to fight raelvanna
We're going back in time to take dragons off the menu.
TRUE
do some fuck up shit with dragon aerie to go BACK IN TIME to the SILVA ASCENSION to get raelvanna. off. the menu.
That's right, we're going back in time to take dragons off the menu.
TRUTH NUKE
im dunking on this dragon bro
watch ts
I think alot of people have brought up the aerie's fucky time as an excuse to do an Elden Ring & have you fight dead dragons as bosses but basically anytime the idea gets brought up its shut down by cei or reb
I wanna fight Gun Dragon.
I think that all you would need to do is go back in time to fight Xeroc before he absorbs Zeratros.
Xeroc's ascension is what kicked off the Dracomachy when other people, for good or for bad, wanted an Auric soul of their own.
Though I do think that to a certain degree, this was inevitable.
Many dragons were dead or dying already,
In the Lore item Prelude, it was said that it was feared that Zeratros's POWER was about to be lost forever, not just his life.
It does make me wonder whether Xeroc's ascension was truly a betrayal like Yharim says, or if Zeratros was simply too powerful to be reborn by Yharon, and he passed on his Power before it could fade entirely.
Like, it's possible Zeratros knew Xeroc would be stronger and could protect Terraria and gave up their soul, but again, nobody knows what happened between them.
silly fovos
moonlord did some fucked up shit to prevent the revival
Moon bite.
silly fovos……..
also yharim's ass was NOT there to see if it was a betrayal or not
fake fucking LIAR !!!!!!
Like, it was over a thousand years ago, right?
We play in late 1800s and the god stuff and fovos happened early 1000s iirc
Oh yeah, the bite he has prevents healing. For some reason I didn't think that would affect rebirth.
But I guess if he was much more powerful back then, it would make sense that it has more far reaching consequences.
Yharon was alive, but it's possible that unless he was a physical eyewitness to the event, he wouldn't have believed anything Xeroc said after his ascension.
It's very late 19th century, almost 20th. Not entirely sure of what the precise start date is, but many years after 1875, probably ten or something around there.
No one but xeroc and zeratros was there
Worst case scenario xeroc ascending was the logically best thing to do for the planets safety
Well, that would be best case.
Worst case is it was malicious.
Zeratros was gonna permadie anyways
And xeroc is most likely the planets guardian
Yeah, so I'm saying that it being for the good of the planet would be the best case.
Best case scenario zeratros consented to it
Whether it was malicious or not it was like almost objectively the right thing to do
Whether Xeroc did it out of a desire for power or any other selfish/malicious goal or whether he actually saw it as the best thing to do (Which, really, again, objectively it was) is another story
but like
all things considered
it's almost definitely not the former
Well, we know they took the soul, so the alternate isn't really what's important, what's the focus is on the intentions and end goals of Xeroc, which we don't know.
we can get possible insight from rock and terminus tooltips no?
I mean yeah we don't but i very highly doubt it's just megalomania
because yeah
all the conjtext we have
points to him being actually pretty friendly towards you and actually fondly reminiscing about the time him and Yharon(And i assume, by proxy, the dragons as a whole) were friends
im gonna megalomania it so hard
I don't think someone who did it all purely for selfish desire for power would act like that
Like, I was thinking Xeroc could just be another reflection of Yharim, right, did some extreme thing for the greater good and is now depressed and strong.
yharon gotta be pissed as fuck
like holy manipulative dragon and all but u do kinda feel bad for bro
Fovos tentacles latches to you and heals himself
yeah no yharon probably hates his ass and is just like man i miss my buddy
its like that one image
hes literally eating you while u fight him
the sigma chill ass monkey and the soyjak angry lion
yharon andxeroc truth
YEP
'I miss Yharon Terrarian, I miss him alot, I'll be back.'
i do wonder just how deep their relationship goes
I think Xeroc is probably like kinda depressed
if it were as far as theirs and zeratros’?
He seems to genuinely have cared about the dragons and again he reminisces fondly of his friendship with them so
Yeah, that's what I was saying, an irony in them being similar to Yharim.
I think his ascencion unintentionally causing their extinction probably makes him a bit sad yknow
Like, Yharim became just like the one he probably hates most.
very true, but i do like to think about what they were like together when xeroc wasn’t with zeratros
The difference between Yharim and Xeroc is that Yharim is just like fucked up and evil while Xeroc honestly just kind of did the right thing and it had consequences that were kinda unavoidable
I don't think they're really that similar to eachother
Like Xeroc dosen't strike me as delulu
He just did what he thought was right and it had Consequences
xeroc is definitely a “i did what i had to, and i will live with the consequences” kind of guy to me
yeah no exactly
I'd argue he's not evil per se, as he did have benevolent intentions. Obviously, his ends didn't justify the means, he really didn't need to burn churches, groom orphans, kill civilians, etc.
I mean, he could just be lying.
dude accepted what they did and they remember the times he had those dragons as friends
He is no different from providence in that sense and i'd hardly call her cause is anything near benevolence
xeroc definitely seems, like you said, in one way or another, a mild amount of depressed
dude why are my words just fucking disappearing
Regardless of my word choice, I'd still argue that he thought, and still thinks it was for the greater good, or right thing to do.
I mean yeah
Regardless of how outragous of his methods.
in his mind i mean
but thinking you're doing the rihgt thing dosen't make him not evil
like again he's just genuinely delusional
People generally dont see their own actions as evil
Specially someone like Yharim
Yharim isn't someone who like had a noble goal and fell off, he's someone who believes he's that
I mean, you reach a point where this is just a philosophy argument on what good and evil is.
If a dude thinks eating babies is the right thing does that make him not evil for eating babies
😭
It makes them insane.
whos eating babies 😭
Yharim's entire character is about refusing to see nuance or alternative opinions on things and having one single moral compass you firmly attach yourself to to the point of it becoming so ingrained in your psyche that you genuinely delude yourself into fully believing it even when like the entire world disagrees
Of course, if you argue that to be evil the intent must be malicious, then you could say he doesn't truly qualify, as he believed that by killing the gods he would end their tyranny. But again, you reach a point where the issue is defining concepts like good and evil into an inarguable and things are rarely so black and white.
Yeah but like
Obviously, Yharim is bad.
most gods weren't tyrannical
There are at least three gods that I know of that probably could have been left entirely alone and the world would have been better for it.
because even though they did consume an Auric soul, they were at least trying to use what they had to the betterment of the people around them, if not the betterment of the world.
Noone could deny it. But he at least thought he was good. He wasn't, but he thought he was.
I mean yeah
I'm not arguing against that
He thought he was good yeah thats entirely true
but it dosent make him good
Like, he's an extremist, war criminal, child abusing racist.
He's nowhere near good.
I mean yeah that was like my entire point
He thinks of himself as a good guy but he isnt
And even if every single god were irredeemably evil
His apathy and inattention killed or alienated would be allies. Even if you attribute it to war fatigue, he took easy convenient roads to ending a war that led to more suffering.
Yharim sees himself as someone who did bad things for a good reason, even though that reason was inherently flawed and didn't justify the means.
Yeah that's his character
#echochamber
That's like exactly what i'm trying to say
The council is in agreement
curse you dogma
He got aid from untrustworthy and malevolent beings, manipulated traumatised children, attacked civilians for their religion and such because it was 'the only way' even though there were countless other ways to do things, it was just the easier, faster way.
raises fist at sky
He had ways to contain godly essence, so DoG isn't strictly needed, he's stronger then Calamitas so he didn't need to weaponise her, and so on.
He just couldn't be bothered to take accountability after a while.
He also bankrolled a lot of Draedon's living ecological disasters.
Again, because it was easy, and he refused to actually take accountability and left others to pick up the pieces he refused to fix.
Pretty much the only one to my knowledge that we can say wasn't on Yharim was the Nano-Plague.
Like Poltherghast is a good example, he just couldn't be bothered to do anything about it, because it was inconvenient to him.
He didn't need to make a teen nuke Italy, he could have probably just done it himself with an army or something, but it's easier to make someone else do it.
The 'Civilian Killer 9000' was frankly uncalled for.
I am a little bit of a hypocrite because I am also working with Draedon because I benefit from his scientific advancements.
This Yharim guy kinda stinks, am I right guys?
I mean, who hasn't done just a little genocides.
Are we defending gigahitler in lore chat again
No, we're debating on what it means to be evil.
So we can accurately say if he's evil or just a lunatic.
i think genocide is evil
Can I also kill some oriole
Yharim ohh🎶, why did you kill those guys ohh🎶
People
Hey guys I know he killed hundreds of millions of people and also put a bunch of people in a dungeon and left them all to rot and turn into angry souls and also manipulated a child to incinerate an entire city but like he killed a few bad guys!!! That’s fine!! That means he’s a good guy!!
oo king whyd you have to kill those guys
Also notice how he didn’t talk about the hallowed biome
Look, he only groomed one kid, that's only a third of the amount Ghetsis did in Pokémon.
Hmmm I wonder what happened to all the good gods hmmmm
So Yharim is about a third of Ghetsis evil.
My mathmatical capabilities are unmatched.
Yharim, ooo, please don't kill the good gods oooh
"silva is one of the good ones"
Into the abyss with her.
better then death maybe
She got better the last time.
Look, all I'm saying is I don't remember Yharim rounding up all the Lihzahrd's for nefarious purposes.
how much Silva do we gotta eat until shes gone for good
grilled vegetable
Lizhards lowkey deserve it
isnt she in a coma
they annoy me in gameplay
witch doctor is one of the good ones
Found Yharim's alt.
they arent real no good gods never forget the divine sin
i hate the way they jump at me and start running on all fours after they're low enough
dragons are awesome never forget
That was Yharim's war cry.
Wow all dragons were surely good guys and never did anything wrong
is silva in a coma
Like, I'd assume the dragons weren't evil, but there were probably extortionate ones, and I'm willing to bet the Dragon of Gluttony wasn't a saint.
he never lies, you gotta be schtewpid to think Yharim would lie to me
Trust gigahitler! Become his successor! Kill fucking everyone!!!
Dragon of gluttony may be gluttonous but that doesn't mean he's lazy
Yharim said he had no choice but to emotionally manipulate that teenager!
he could be the farmiest farmer of all
Yeah shes basically a braindead corpse in the abyss rn
give her like 3000 years she'll get better
ironic that the plant became a vegetable
Yeah, why didn't the child just leave, is she stupid?
Insane
she is tupid
And then she killed uhm permafrost
wonder what happened to that guy, never fought Cryogen it was too cold for me
yharim shouldve just let draedon cook
Calamitas should have just said no, he can't groom her without her consent, duh!
He's so dramatic, its just ONE bee dude
He just loves nature & animals too much
lowkey shot himself in the foot with that
Unless they're lizard pepole.
(except for elementals he fucking hates elementals)
Dramatic Finish
yharim could have exotech
he does
does he
nah they kinda made up cuz they still had feelings for eachother
he does
he went to draedon for an upgrade
Last year.
what is sscls on abt vro
so Dreadon upgraded his Armor as a sign of their love and trust
doomed yaoi
draedon holds no grudges & Yharim was very sulky
truer words have never been said
nice pfp omni
Because he doesn't care, as he's amoral and was moreso confused as to why he didn't like bee slavery.
can yharim and draedon just kiss and be friends again
thanks ggg
I thnik they did, but they're too embarrassed to say it in public
Draedon doesn't have a mouth, and Yharim's wearing a helmet, they can't kiss, foolish mortal.
Who knows what happened while Dreadon was upgrading his armor
life finds a way
if draedon can make machines of infinite power
he can make lips
You're forgetting something, Yharim is weak to gay, so he'd die.
Worth it
We get it, you're Robot Romancers.
mhm
no yharim of mine will date a damn clanker
thats true
Calamitas clone watching Yharim and Draedon argue over bees.
DoG is the alcoholic racist uncle.
hes the sweet baby boy
any argument between Draedon & Yharim would be like that image of the monkey staring smugly while the lion screams at it
dog is the type of guy to bring up those damned godmodders at the dinner table
i have no slur for the elementals i cant come up with anything
I assume like 3 minutes in Draedon activates a sub-routine to shake his head & sigh disappointedly every 5 seconds while he does other things in his other recon bodies
I mean wasn't Yharim blowing up half the lab in rage.
He'd probably be midly miffed I'd think.
onetyper
What is it with Yharim & Calamitas damaging Draedons property
Yharim's childish, Calamitas was probably furious that he, you know, created a clone of her without her consent and tried to rescue it.
ok this is kinda funny
Draedon even pissed off yharim
clankers, godmodders and onetypers
Over bees
but, hm, doesnt roll off the tongue well
guys, did Amidias got stuck inside the clam while the Inceneration happening?
The greatest tragedy of Calamity is we were stripped of sister SCal/C.C dynamic
he take a bite :)
TRUE
TRUEEEEE
???
cant say this as a clanker
truth
We just gotta trust they add spareable Calamitas Clone.
i believe
Also Amidias isn't gonna be in the clam in the future I think.
i'll make her house sick asf & join the $50 patreon tier for life if they do
Hmm, I wonder what this could be.
are there slurs for clones
poser or smth
Faker
I was thinking they'd make Calamitas Clone part of Permafrost's mission thing I don't know what it was called where you kinda drop her off to him as a responsibility.
Sonic adventure 2 got that one
Doppleganger.
faker
It's not about the word it's how you use it.
faker is a good one
usually the droids called them meatbags or just clone very antagonizingly
Wouldnt make much sense timeline wise though as I believe C.C's being retiered to Pre-Hardmode
yea but those are weak
I think they said they might do it, it's not certain.
At least it seems like they're closer to locking in on that angle for the rework
clankers cant make good slurs
well, they are just droids.
She just hangs around spawn until you save Permafrost looking lost.
💔
Also, the clone would look like Calamitas just without the scar, right?
i tire of this wave of robot racism
Enough casual racism. Time for competitive racism.
what are you, a sympathizer?
visual interpretation of Calamitas Clone go
why her jaw exposed
Like, ignoring the warped by uncontrollable power thing.
burns
You know, before that happened.
personally i wouldnt be burnt
True dat.
from the brimstone fire she is infamously bad at containing/controlling
I figured it out, to spare the clone you gotta take her to the nurse to heal her.
spare no one
Also, did you draw that?
calclone: Yoo, wassup, Im like a clone n all, pretty cool huh? I'm going to kill you now
yeah
She's probably in too much pain to really think, and is just lashing out.
Also, it's a good drawing.
im pretty mediocore but i think i conveyed what i wanted to
the robes are more white & clinical because of draedon
yeah she’d say this
She's right next to me, she told me to write that for her
I'd say it'd probably be more like AAAAAAHHHHH IT BURNS OH GOD IT BURNS PLEASE GOD AAAAHHHH!
Nobody ever draws the lore accurate fan art. I haven't seen a single image of Calamitas living in a cave!
why didn’t silva just stay in the abyss in the first place so she wouldn’t get brutally murdered again? is she stupid? 
I forgot, do we canonically kill Yharon and take his soul or just like a piece of it?
Just shavings.
If we took his soul Yharim would get microwaved by his own armour.
ouch!
Wait how would that work 
He would lose his attunement to Yharon
thus making Auric reject him
and since he is covered in auric armor
And it'd be like a bug zapper.
If no yharon soul then yharim no longer attuned and so armour fucking kills him
You would also become a god, and Calamitas would probably just get more traumatized.
Auric springlock
he would infact fry to death if he were to lose his attunement for some god forsaken reason
She'd be watching going, oh no not again.
it would be incredibly funny if yharims attunement to yharon also allowed yharim to rebirth anew 
It probably doesn't work like that.
Phase 2 yharim
Baby
Just like in that manga...
Yharim baby got hands
Yay, now you do :)
is it morally wrong to go back in time and kill baby Yharim
baby yharim superboss
Somthing somthing grandfather paradox
We just do what he wanted, groom him into becoming Yharim.
Which one
there are a lot of those
oh uhm jojo?
oh, uhh, future diary?
doctor 'winging my ding' gaster
Damn I didn't know IWBTG had a manga 
me when i name my terrarian Gaster and i get sent back to the first time i ever played terraria
I uh
back to being 10 years old
I don't think killing an infant is morally acceptable no matter who they grow up to be 
What if the baby was a jerk?
it is an infant
Have yall ever heard the grandfather paradox?
don't care, baby goes to the meat grinder
Going back in time to kill yharim would do nothing
says who
okay so we just loom over them until they become evil
thank you
or y'know
okay so instead i go back in time to baby yharims time, wait 20-30 years to just before the crusade starts THEN kill him
is that better?
Make an omelette.
Yooo, Yharon omelette
absorb yharon before meeting yharim
good luck with that
The mother of all omelettes, Jack.
Grandfather pardox:
Let's say you go back im time to kill someone before they do evil deeds.
So you go back in time and kill them. Which prevents the deeds... but that also prevents any reason for you to go back in time to kill them
what is with y'all and killing-
That's a different paradox.
I meant moving the egg somewhere else
multiple timelines theory
Like Dragon ball Z
Grandfather paradox is where you go back in time, screw your grandmother, and become your own grandfather.
Pro tip. Don't do that.
Thats futurama
future trunks comes to our timeline, kills the big bad, then goes back to his own timeline and kills the big bad there
then a ball head erases the timeline
oopsie
Somehow, this still results in Calamitas being homeless.
lets jus kill calamitas too while were at it
Oh also I dont think timetravel is possivle in calamity lore
No we get her therapy
THERAPY
some fucked up shit with dragon aerie
DEATH
Just murdering a homeless woman for the love of the game.
guys what about just being friends with cal so she isn't AS traumatized
That's the canon route.

lore discussion
no thats way too far gone
I can fix her
no you can NOT
Power of friendship.

I'll fix her like i can fix [insert psychotic anime girl]
ew
friends with her?
that wont work
yes
think about it
if you kill her while being friends....
i will kill mfs that say “i can fix her” to cal leave that poor girl alone bro
srry but her bosss fight annoys me too much with the bullet hell phases
I'm going to hold that grudge
this is not even cal is the fucked up and just insane clone of cal
which is a lot worse than cal
(mentally)
This is to take medicine, even further beyond!
peak
What if we make a clone... of the clone
terraformer is secretly a medi-gun
Will this work? I have no idea!
How lorous is this convo
lore discussion
john lore
i am john lore
no youre john vcmm
The lore on friendship.
you can't be 2 johns
i know. if you thought it, i been knew. i knew before you did, and i know that too
Is friendship stronger then infernal insanity. The answer is as usual, yes.
the answer is no
i am John VCMM Lore
When im fighting John calamity and I hear the freedom motief
me when I'm fighting pumpking and I hear freedon motif
Fools, Storm Weaver has the freedom motif.
pumpking does
Freedom motif vs draedon motif
which cal boss would fit for a secret shadow crystal boss
they should make yharim cisphobic
pumpking does NOT count he's cheating
that would make him more redeemable
Noxus
Yharim is weak to gay people, he's obviously homophobic.
Also groomed an LGBT child to commit crimes.
empress of light because uhhh the fucks her deal????
but hes trans
Hey, she's just the messenger.
she wants to explode you that's enough reason
you know i had an idea about noxus
She somehow has a connection to primordial light and does a little trolling
Transcended this mortal coil once I get my hands on him.
i think it would be fairly cool if we were to kill yharim, and suddenly, majoras mask style, a countdown ui would appear next to your map or something similar
and you had days before noxus bridged the realities
and was like “whats up motherfucker here i am”
Was storm weaver ever connected to noxus becides being from the same place?
that would be cool
The question is is the Terrarian weak to gay too?
moderately terrifying
dog spoiler but its also like ten times bigger
like, think of
storm weaver used to be part of noxus' hivemind until it somehow broke out
the time runs out and you're back to nearly defeating yharim
I thought it was just from the same place
you can genuinely introduce noxus in a multitude of terrifying ways, i just hope we somehow encounter it and suffer a scripted loss before we eventually going to the distortion to get revenge
yk with some fucked up dragon aerie time thing
Goddess of Time has our backs.
Scripted loss cant happen cause hard-core runs are a thing
FUCK hardcore
you beat dog and suddenly you see something in the background and attacks you once and you are left at one hp
Now is not the time for that.
hear me out, you go there to get an important material for altar of the accursed or/and codebreaker, you get it and noxus inmediately kicks your ass out of there
i would KILL for a distorted countdown visual
and when you come back you have minutes before noxus instakilling you
we do not talk about wotg in this holy discussion land
phase 3 dog but its not actually phase 3 of dog but its noxus chasing you through the distortion and you have to leave
🙏
I was saying that it did the general idea.
Of foreshadowing the arrival of 'legally distinct noxus'
i want that purple (assumingly) motherfucker to scare the god given power out of us
that's actually a fire idea
What if noxus is like the water wraith, this force that hunts you through out the shadowlands
You rang?
Your existence gave me the idea
That's the neat part, I'm not anchored in your dimension.
What if the Distortion is actually Pikmin 2 cave
Yet I can throw fat pikmin at you
the timer ends, a pre-boss track similar to that of the impending doom track would ring out across the game
it would be so undeniably sick
hire me immediately
yes
a countdown for terraria's expire
who?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVwmW91YPxA
You beat Yharim and this begins playing.
😭 😭 😭
admin in here
Calamitas, she keeps getting knocked down into the dirt by destiny.
or like stars above, you kill yharim, and then some days after some fucked up shit starts to happen in the world
oki
Damn this destiny bitch needs to go
Calamitas does seem like the kind of person to be stuck in a dead-end job with a wife & 2 kids
Spiritually, that's where she's at.
& have a co-worker she hates but keeps helping anyway
At least she doesn't crash land every few weeks. Or maybe she does, we don't know what she does in her spare time.
Probably just lays im bed all day trying to cope her ptsd
she lives in my very nice house i built for her
After ten years or so of that.
:)
Yeah she lives in the grand brimstone tower right next to the Sulphurous Sea what do you mean
with her loving father Permafrost & that bum the Wizard
true
Making her look at the desiccated remains of a shore instead of the vibrant fields of the forest.
No it's right next to as in in a forest but close enough if you walk all the way to the left the background changes to sulphurous sea & it looks awesome
You know is she dead in calamity lore?
i dont think there is a goddess of time
or a dragon of time or any equivalents
not last i heard anyway
We need to go back in time to create the Dragon of Time, so a Goddess of Time can have our backs.
