It'd be a lot of forests, burnt down forests, the occasional mounds of rotten corpses.
the 120 mile wide forest
The crimson is 2 day long trip through and 5x more deadly
Good luck
Even ignoring we only explore two axis.
We explore X and Y axis just no Z
It would take forever to do anything. And let's not even consider having lore accurate day lengths.
we writing tolkien-level stories with this one
Like, in the lore, Azafure and Ilmeris are only close in the way I don't know, Spain and Austria are close. Same continent, but it'd be a massive trek to reach one from the other.
TWELVE HOURS TO FIGHT MECHS WOOOOOOO
this would make pylons actually useful
They are useful. (I only play on large worlds.)
Imagine if games were accurate about distance travel and time
Morrowind.
🤝
Terraria just has a very short day and night cycle obviously
Y’know how most boss fights take at least a minute
Good luck fighting the eater of worlds for like two straight hours
As a rule of thumb, you can generally discount the scale in games as being utterly accurate the story because making a game to scale is a nightmare and playing a game to scale is a nightmare.
Imagine Pokémon, but each route takes multiple days to traverse.
why would fighting things take longer?
Because it's probably not gonna die instantly.
In game minutes are an hour in time.
So if a boss takes a minute to beat...
It takes an hour in the story.
oh wait you meant scaling that direct
It's not to scale, it's all shrunk down.
Because it'd suck if it were realistic.
Supreme Witch, Calamitas is fighting you for multiple hours straight.
Even if the fight takes five minutes for you, it was a five hour battle in the narrative.
its worth noting that it uh. would probably still die in the same amount of time. because the terrarian is in fact not moving at 60x slowdown
Realistically, the attacks and movements of characters are also even less to scale.
Otherwise everyone is moving painfully slow.
the terrarian's fall speed is actually less than 1 mile per hour
Like, think about what you can do in a day in Terraria. With only 24 minutes, it's not that much.
you can mine through rock pretty fast
If from the characters perspective that's 24 hours...
Also, NPCs sitting around and doing nothing is probably not accurate to the canon as it were.
You literally said we shouldn't use in game scale before
like im pretty sure the terrarian can outpace a tunnel boring machine
all the town npcs watching the terrarian fish in complete silence for two hours:
the day/night cycle moves somewhere around 60x faster, but everything taking canonically 60x longer is flat out wrong
Yeah that's what I'm continuing to say.
Obviously.
None of it is to scale.
And the scale is not consistent, it's just what works best for gameplay.
i dont think you know what to scale means ngl
It sounds like that was the point you were trying to make
Like, Terrarian doesn't need to eat or sleep. If anyone says Terrarian is you and I decide they don't do that I will strangle you.
I know what to scale means.
something being to scale means it is increased or decreased at a consistent rate
any1 know if there is a lore doc or something?
check pins
the latest one is a 100+ page document of most of the lore, it's awesome
roar of the jungle dragon, yeah
Only sort of
The exact words aren't canon but the general idea is
And RotJD is closer to correct than SBC
idk if it's at all accurate to the terraria nurse but i wrote her as generally uncaring towards the heroics of the cast (particularly one character who wants her to stop taking her 'work' lightly) as she's likely seen several heroes come and go, plus it seems fitting (despite you giving her a home for free she still charges you top dollar and refuses to work if she thinks it's too dangerous)
roar of the jungle dragon is canon, stained brutal calamity is very much not
Stained, Brutal Calamity was made for a much earlier draft of the lore and makes reference to things that are very much not true anymore. Despite being for an earlier draft, Roar of the Jungle Dragon managed to get more accurate, if anything.
Its kind of hard for roar of the jungle dragon to ever not be true while Yharim is a character we will fight
Yeah but I imagine it's staying since it goes hard and is very much iconic
All of the themes are bangers
I finished the prologue's draft but idk where to take the story now
Cultist is dear and one of the mcs went home after eating an explosion to set up that she doesn't want to be a "hero" but now like I said idk where to go, the two other mcs are still at the dungeon
Stained, brutal calamity is also just too peak to ever change imo, same with roar of the jungle dragon
I want at least a chapter or 2 of them just building their characters up Soo any ideas I can hear
Obviously you need to have the character learn that with great power comes great responsibility, you gotta give them a reason to be a hero.
The character that's the strongest is pretty ill tempered because they didn't want to be thrown into the conflict, to them they were born for something they hate. Instead of becoming a hero and fighting for what others say is right, they fight for themselves and what they want
Yharim wants them to continue their crusade and everyone else wants them to be a hero that rises against him when they really don't know what they want. But it's not like they have time to think until after they're done
Something's gotta happen to push them towards a side.
Their friends dying does that
They're motivated not by justice but spite
Great, go ahead and kill their friend!
Then they kinda assimilate their beliefs overtime
I am the author so I do decide what they go through
This probably happened in power rangers or something.
This is the fourth time you've mentioned power rangers in our talks I think you're a fan
I know nothing about power rangers.
WaterWraithYapping
What?
There's a chance this happened in power rangers
Honestly, I'm certain it did.
Same fr
Byeah like I said, general layout is
- Protags beat cultist
- Protags chill before pillars come
- Then they beat the moon lord and Provi
- After Provi, leader protag gets neg diffed by dog going after the crystal before signus comes in and nearly kills the party (they have to escape)
- Everyone's sad for a while, then new leader guy steps up, they go after the envoys and dog
- New leader guy sacrifices himself to kill dog, blowing a hole through the distortion and reality (noxus foreshadowing ooohh)
- Yharon, Exos and Cal go relatively fine (protag four had to fight the remaining protag because Calamitas kinda puppets their body around)
- They make their way to the aerie, Yharim kills protag 3 and protag 4 gets angry and they fight
- Mid fight, noxus shows up and begins to consume the light of the aerie
- They team up and defeat noxus, I'm not sure if I want protag 4 to kill them, noxus to kill them or the collapse of the aerie to/their fate be left ambiguous
Wall of text jumpscare
I think it's out of character for Calamitas to puppet someone like she's Ganondorf.
Maybe when she was still in warcrimes n shi
It's based on the one exhumed thing
Which one?
The gas shadow one
Now it doesn't feel like she'd do that, idk. Depends on what ashumi is cooking ig
Like, Calamitas herself was a puppet.
The idea I had for cal is that in the au she's still relatively young
And she's trying to be a hero during the boss fight.
Younger then 28, her approximate in game age?
Yeah, I'm not sure yet though
Ages are still relatively up in the air since a lot of their stories are "comes from x place in nondescript time period"
Protag one comes from the temple, fleeing after the ravager thing, protag two is from the crags (they really want to be I have to find a reason they exist) protag three is like Tavernkeep and comes from another world and protag 4 comes from the aerie, what they are is unclear (because idk yet)
Calamitas is someone who had her autonomy ripped from her multiple times, it just doesn't seem fitting she would do the same to someone else after that.
you mean insanely out of character
That's what I'm saying.
Calamitas is like #1 not using people person
Unless they're dead
🤷♀️ seemed like hype moments and aura moment
Well they dont have a concious then
She does puppet the dead to be fair.
True
She should use the dead protagonists instead.
Difference between using a corpse and someone alive with thoughts and shit
Because that's fair game.
Both are completely obliterated, protag 1 was turned to mist by dog and protag 2 exploded
She is probably very used to death so stigma around bodies likely isnt there for her
She managed to put her brothers back together, can't imagine there's a whole lot left of them.
Idk I think it'd be in character enough for a much more unstable and reckless version but whether or not I keep it is up in the air
Maybe it'd be a better moment for draedon, just seeing what would happen if mind control device number two is used in some random
Chum bucket control device
Yeah draedon seems more the type to use his plague on something more sentient
Oh yeah Draedon wouldn't even blink at mind control.
Nah it depends on the reason
"see if this dude can is strong enough to beat up their only friend" (?)
He got confused as to why Yharim didn't like his mind control nanomachines that rot you from the inside.
No there needs to be some sort of power he would try to udnerstand or amplify
He explicitly doesn't have morals of any kind.
Problem is idk why he wouldn't just leave them in and keep them perma controlled
I don't see him going "wow you did good let me fix them up!"
That's true, he wouldn't have a reason to let his victim go.
And even then in a human I would see him instead of full mind control do a like amplification control where the bots do things to "forcefully" improve the technique or muscle control or something along those lines
Draedon isnt the type to mind control for torture purposes for the sake of it
There needs to be some sort of scientific goal
Yeahh in terms of that I'm unsure
And in Calamitas' case it undermines her entire storyline by doing so.
Like him willingly working on the calamitas close to figure out Calamitas' power source
Maybe just seeing if it works on more sentient forms of like (idk if he did use it on people/people adjacent things)
He doesn't do that kinda thing for fun. Only science.
Fair, like I said I just thought it'd be cool
Again there needs to be a goal
Yeah the goal is testing the limits
He knows his plague works very well
Byeah there's that
It would have to be for the purpose of mixing something like his exo tech with a magical outlier
Plague v2 works on people now!
Maybe he's made some kind of improvement to the Astral Infection allowing temporary control of sapient life. And he is testing it on your guy.
I mean in terms of magic they can create like toned down antimatter (like a gram or so if they really need to) so maybe power source? Idk
This idea could be neat yeah
doesnt need a power source
he has sea prisms
That's why it generates power.
Don't they use it in some reactors
It costs multiple billions to make a tiny amount.
I do like the astral idea
But I'm not sure what the end goal would be if he has the plague
Maybe just seeing if he can control the mutations or something
Oh in fiction yeah do what you want. You can make reactors fuelled by whatever the hell. In Calamity they use Sea Prisms.
I think your best bet is some person has astral based powers and has been taken over by the astral infection so he reverses the infection's affliction of the person's mind with his own mind control
Like the main thing is that I want to draedon/Calamitas fight to have a lasting impact on the story beyond cal moving in and becoming a character
But we have been told the astral infection doesnt really do biological sentience overtaking
Whats happening
idk
Maybe they get infected and kinda like. Do the thing in zombie media where you like cut off the flow and that's the only thing that gets mutated
Calamitas is the remind of what they're fighting for and why Yharim is so important to be defeated. She's a living reminder of his actions.
Talking about ideas for my story
honestly im just here for character motivations
O ok
Yeah I also need to think of actual motivations for each character defeating Yharim beyond "he's evil!"
Draedon is an embodiment of his 'anything for the cause' attitude exaggerated even further.
Like person one watched the ravager mess happen so they'd have a pretty clear reason to do that
Person two I'm not sure why someone who just spawned from lava would want to join outside of like, boredom and wanting to fight strong guys
I just think that in order to not completely butcher Draedons' character while him still doing a Plauge v2 for a person that person must be under some other control, and its not draedon taking them over to control them
Avenge Azafure?
I mean if they were controlled why would they work with the party
I can do that yeah
I mean you cant really avenge Azafure, that was Calamitas and one of the Gods fighting there no?
They could be slowly being assimilated by something that makes them stronger I guess.
I've seen that before.
Brimmy aint a god
But close enough for Yharim, he doesn't like the elementals much either due to being very dangerous.
I mean wouldn't they just be entirely gone by the time the Yharim fight hits
The point is that like, protag 3 and 4 start off as rivals and become friends so it's more impactful when protag 3 is mauled by yharim
yeah mb brimmy, not a god
Idk if he'd sneak them but I don't put it past him if he'd want a 1v1
Nah, the Draedon fight's aftermath leaves them with full control because of some reason or other.
It could be a slow overtaking of the body and mind
hence they would be working with the party and have the conflict of whatever controlling them trying to do bad stuff
Mechanic and goblin tinkerer, with their powers combined they hack plague 2.0 or something
With their powers combined they give you dogshit loll
Maybe like Black Suit Spider-Man where they get more violent and unhinged over time, but it's still them.
That could work yeah
It would give them a reason to try and infect themself with plague
Combine two empowering mind eaters and it cancels out somehow.
Maybe Calamitas knows what's up idk
or creates something different
Something something tibetan monk
The Batman way.
there should be a complete character shift when they mix plague and whatevr infection imo
that kind of thing would have a lasting impact, like the forces fighting for power leaving an equilibrium
Yeah, I dunno how to shift their character in a way that doesn't feel like character butchering since I'm using my friend's characters for the stories (just retooled/retakes?)
Then imo dont do anything with mind corruption/control
if your solution is plague or some other mind altering thing
I've already plotted it out with them they're cool with basically everything
Wdym solution
In terms of story beats I mean
To the mind control thing.
Maybe they get a little too enthusiastic about fighting.
like they have some mind infection and the solution to the problem of it is another mind altering infection essentially
Draedon gets temporary control.
Yeah other than like, draedon blowing off their face with some fuckass laser beam and ruining their depth perception
They get free just in time to die to Yharim.
I mean we know Draedon can just turn off the plague so there is always that danger inherent to it
Maybe it's something that mimics calamitases magic instead of creating a clone with free will (gross) to still keep the general idea? I dunno
Testing if he can do the necromancy thing on a not dead person but realistically I doubt he could do that considering the clone was a fail
He asks them to test an empowering exoskeleton but he remotely controls it.
Then he's like 'Thank You' when they break it.
Oh cool, I finally got the ares exoskeleton! I happily says
Little did I know. It was evils exoskeletons.
the clone was only a fail because he was attempting to clone calamitas' powers and didnt
Clone failed because Calamitas' power isn't genetic.
yeah
Maybe he finds a way to mimic it through sparkles technology sparkles again but idk if that's too much of a stretch or not
Draedon is far more science focused it doesn't really make sense for him to be experimenting with just magic.
Magic + science he can take.
So recapping, general idea on the big final (vanilla) boss impact is draedon mind control or gigashit laser beam that blows their faces off of their skulls
But just magic? Doesn't seem to care for it.
Not vanilla vanilla but vanilla calamity
Yeah he only cares when science is used as some sort of conduit for magic or vice versa
We get the idea.
Maybe aureus makes their grand return and proceeds to do nothing because they suck and I hate them
Aureus was made to survey battlefields... So... Uh... It films the whole thing?
Films the whole thing before he's tragically hit by a stray ki blast
I don't know enough about Power Rangers is that a reference?
Byeah the thing about the personality amp of person 3 is that they're a kinda cynical jokester-y character (just kinda along for the ride) so idk how an amplification of the personality would be. Maybe their jokes get worse
Stage 3 badjokeitis
They turn into Sans.
I mean jokes aside yeah maybe them becoming more apathetic would work
They're not really the hopeful type but they do at least keep their friends going
'I'm the Underdog of this tale, man.'
ererer title drop
'What are we, some kind of Terraria; Calamity Mod Fan Fiction?'
'Gary what the hell are you talking about?'
Gary Larry Barry and steve
Byeah main issue is I still dunno what to do with chapter 1
I'm kinda retconning how the pillars work just so they have time to chill between the cultist's death and the pillars
Don't worry I heard they're gonna make Pillars a summon in the future.
And that's not what retcon means.
You get the point
Byeah what fits best for Yharim death, dying to the aeries collapse, noxus or protag
Protag very much hates Yharim but knows that if they don't wait until noxus is gone they're both dead, idk if its like "disrespectful" to Yharims character to immediately have them mauled after a fight or smth
I don't think it would be best for Yharim to die to Noxus, right, because then it just legitimizes him and his actions if he gets to die as a hero when he very, very much isn't one.
Is the best route letting the protag kill them then
I'd say so, you know, it has to be this way and all that.
I think it would work regardless of if it's before or after though.
It's less of a "ouch, sorry man but it's my job and I have a quota to fill..." And more of a "now that the world ending calamity (ha! Ha! He said it!) Is gone I'm gonna kill you and I'm gonna enjoy it"
They see Yharim as the sole reason their friends are dead because well he basically is
Then they recreate the ending of MGR together.
its ok xeroc can deal with it
thats like one of the few things that lazy bum would do
Xeroc and Calamitas, unified in unemployment.
I felt like it'd be more I guess ironic for xeroc to see Yharim as beneath itself now since they're basically dead anyways but idk if they'd just not deal with it
I do plan for Xeroc to appear to actually kill noxus byeah I think it'd be a fitting enough end? Not sure
Just like Wrath of the Gods.
I don't see them killing noxus any other way
Maybe they hit the Goku n Frieza
I didn't watch Power Rangers I don't get the reference.
Duck.
Trans people control slime
this is factual and true
I command green slime to kill you
Greed has consumed cheese throw her into a pit
real
dang⁉️
@pliant ruin has greed consumed you fr
Into a pit you go
rest in pieces cheese
make sure it's the eel pit
pit
The eel pit is going under maintenance at the moment
Best we can do is the Pit of Despair
Idk I’m not team cherry
No, this is a bug game
And the Eeler.
That's you
I'm not the Eeler!?
No you are
Who are you to dictate who I am.
Melon gun is wrong
The English have no power here.
It is not my vested rank or status that dictates my powers
I possess it with or without my "funny blue role"
Although by the scientific definition of bugs they aren’t, the “common” definition that people use usually includes stuff like slugs and worms. I won’t argue about white lady though. That’s a tree if I ever saw one.
Is there any characters who use or specialise in rouge weapons other than the bandit?
statis probably does
melon gun of destruction and rebirth
Wha why
melon gun of all and nothing
melon gun of beginning and end, of past, present and future
melon gun of place and time
melon gun of origin and destiny
melon gun of infinity and eternity
melon gun shot at everything and nothing, calamity mod ends in 28/07/2028
avocado sword
apple shield
Apple wand
the wand is of carrot
Gun = ranged, sword = melee, wand = magic
Statis is the only one that comes to mind yeah
I could imagine it
unlikely imo, thats hallowed related which hallowed didnt exist till post wof
man i need to get back to writing
i've spent the past like month being consumed and becoming a project moon fan
Yea more lore 🎉
my fault
would it make sense for yharmy to come after provi 4 the story (does yharmy even still exist?)
and should yharmy be like twelve super buff handsome swtrong dudes or a buncha random people
the yharmy is mostly disbanded but theres still remnants of it around
the lack of yharim actually leading them means at this point it'd be mostly unorganized groups
i see
so do they still like "work for him" (do what they think he wants) or are they just mercs now
that just kinda do whatever they're paid to do
idk why all of them would specifically go to this direction but sure maybe some of them could be
but also some would definitely still be htis
thats what the mech bosses are iirc
idk what hti means but aight
also what type of gear would they wear do you think
idk if yharim kept auric for himself or not
i don't know how i i can explain better
someone would still be exactly what you said
auric would kill the other people via electric induced explosions
they definitely would not have auric
no like i dont know what the abbreviation hti means
Yharim is literally the only one that can use auric
its not an abbreviation its me saying this but with a typo
it was a typo
and the player 🤓 ☝️
oh ok
i thought it was hired trained somethings
so would they just wear like some shit draedon made
maybe arsenal
arsenal is made mainly for yharim guys yeah
i see
tier 1 is self defence for non combatants iirc, every tier higher is for higher rank soldiers onwards with the final tier being not even used by godseeker knights
iirc
so yeah t2 arsenal works then
i think arsenal is wht yharmy mostly had yea
so a band of 5~7 dudes in arsenal popping by and trying to kill the party after they escape getting mauled by dog works i think
the text in the schematics probably elaborates what each tier is
yeah should
dog pays them four sheckles each
meow
Any remaining Yharmy are likely just bands of fanatics with varying degrees of organisation, Yharim himself is gone and his empire is in ruins, so I'd assume anyone still fighting his war would be doing it for fervour rather then money. Of course, I would assume many of his men would take up mercenary work, but they would clearly not be fighting for his cause anymore. At least, that's what I think.
meow
That's just every word of the Providential Tome
yharim tomorrow
Silksong tomorrow
Ulkair gets added to Calamity tomorrow. Dawn of War IV has Providence as a bonus boss on release
What the fuck is Auric exactly
Like is it like dragon soul material or something?
Cause we only get access to it after killing Yharon
You can use it to bake an Auric Roll ||like in youtube video dQw4w9WgXcQ
||
dragon essence turned into ore iirc
I think auric are always there
we just can’t have those around in pre hm killing people in actual game
I always thought that it's the remnants of the dead gods souls
Since gods get their powers from combining a dragon soul with theirs
not god souls
its auric ore not godly ore
ye
Delicious ore
I am a weirdo that wishes that there was more like exploration in Terraria
Exploration is fun
this is why phm is peak
Except Shimmer. I literally just download the world file and open it in Tedit just to like
Find it
Literally like everyone in lore chat does
Like how Provy's essence gets spilled out after her defeat, creating Uelibloom Ore, Yharon's essence gets spilled out after his defeat, since the player didn't perform the ascension ritual (due to not knowing how), so that creates Auric Ore.
The damage is caused by auric rejection: you're not attuned with an Auric Ore, so it rejects you. Wearing the Auric Tesla stuff makes it look like you're Auric attuned, so it doesn't zap you
Because I cannot be asked to drill near the jungle and beach
I have found my leople
basically racist metal
Interesting, honestly I like to think that there's basically two paths to power.
One is absorbing the essence via the ritual
The other is using the essence
But not the genre of music, of course
he didnt use essence
Yharim was attuned with his buddy Yharon
Which probably means that Yharon probably had to die once or twice to get Auric stuff
he just has a dragon buddy
And then theres scal and draedon

Uh, no
no
Or yknow
There was other auric dragons in the past
Damn. That would've been really funny.
Just use a previous guys armour if needed
"Buddy, I need to make a new armor set. Let me kill you again."
that would go against 1 of the 3 fundamental principles of YellowMan
"Dragons = good"
Harming dragons no matter what bad
exactly
Eh he'll come back (tm)
One hell of a "moral principle"
Still
based
Exploring with wulfrum flashlight in prehardmode is unironically a vibe i really like
Honestly always thought of like
A mod that occasionally regens chests in game?
But idk how that would work
Nor do I have the programming knowledge to do that
Like for example, after you defeat WoF, there's adamantite chests filled with Early HM related gear in unexplored sections.
Theres a mod that makes unlooted gold chests have mimic loot in hardmode no?
Just keep track of which chests exist when the world is generated, then every so often you loop through them and regen the loot inside any of the ones that are empty (to avoid overwriting any player items)
I remember coming across something like that in a mod
Mimics are never effective to me.
Because they always spawn in the stupidest of spots
"Yeah bro you're fooling everybody."
Except the Biome mimics which just love to fucking murder you
TF2 Spy wearing "Terraria chest" mask
Seriously they terrify me
They are a nightmare in caves and comically easy on surface
Yeah and unfortunately the caves is often where they spawn

Luckily you can craft biome keys to farm for them
I dont remember a time i have beat a biome mimic underground
Still an unpleasant surprise when you see one while mining
Like i just die
They're one of the reasons why I never have hardcore characters
They're also terrifying with how they just casually go through walls just to get you
FNAF jumpscare
Coolaid man through 43 metre thick stone wall
I wonder if there's a mod that allows the player to prevent certain monsters/critters/whatever from spawning, e.g. biome mimics, owls, bats, Prismatic Lacewings, seagulls, etc.
I do wish there were biome chests similar to the biome mimics that spawn.
Purely so that there's a small chance that biome mimics can just fully jump scare you
You cannot escape

Me when a town NPC asks why the front door of their single-room home goes into a storage closet:
In my vanilla master mode playthrough
I actually decided to fully decorate the houses
...
oh this would be cool
I made a bathroom area, mainly for the sink, but also for decoration
...
The golfer settled in there

He sleeps in the bathtub ig
It's good for the skin
Let that sink in
Implying that everyone else has a bed.
Yup
I unironically added beds for most of the NPCs
Yeah it was a long playthrough
Calamitas watching from her cave.
I even made an artificial crimson biome
This was vanilla
'They gave them beds?'
So Calamitas just didn't exist
Maybe I should do that for my eventual calamity playthrough just to make her even more jealous
Calamitas in vanilla:

Fine then, Tax Collector then.
Give Calamitas an artificial cave to live in. "It's just like your previous home!"
Too bad. He shares a bed with the fucking clothier

Put a warning sign outside her new cave that says "BEWARE: WITCH"
This is the old man thing people online are obsessed with nowadays, right?
I mean the home I made for the clothier and demolitionist is actually near the shimmer
Because it's convenient
To be able to just teleport there
And also it looked cool
I used granite and it fit the background
I put the Fargo NPCs near the shimmer.
The only ones that didn't have a bed were like
The beach houses
They were just the classic boxes
I originally planned to make a pirate ship but I didn't want to
Also the angler was there
I wanted to make his house out of poo but I was too lazy
Hey, he's a fictional ten-year-old, I'll have you know!
It took me three days to get all of the appropriate fishing parts for the cellphone even with shimmer
He deserved the poop house
Calamitas after burning an entire country to the ground gets treated nicer then a child who is mildly annoying.
The duality of man.
How do I say this
The war crimes maybe fictional
But my annoyance is real

He did give me the hotline pretty early so maybe he doesn't deserve the poop house
She's sad about it
Y'know I honestly thought of a funny image
Due to Yharim grooming Calamitas (to be a weapon)
I genuinely thought of like
The Ukulele apology thumbnail but it's fucking Yharim holding the Ukulele

"The Toxic God train"
Deep breath. 'Hey guys, I'm making this video because I've made repeated and continuous lapses of judgement.'
*crusade train
'So, the Calamitas accusation. In my defence, she did consent, now, I didn't know at the time that 13 year olds cannot consent to going to war.'
Wait who’s yharim’s lawer permafrost is presumed dead
Von Karma.
Oh gods no
"The God Crusade train~!
You're chugging down the tracks of genocidial war!
The God Crusade Train!
You got a one way ticket to manipulation station!"

No calamitas has the ticket
"She was literally asking for it. Seriously. Sure it was after all of her family was murdered. But let's just ignore that."
He has Yharon with him at the start of the video for humanisation points.
Yharon is, somehow, sitting on his lap
'How was I supposed to know her father didn't approve, he never mentioned it to me. Now, fine, I didn't mention it to him either... But that just means he's a neglectful father.'
The image of Yharim petting a tiny Yharon is adorable
Ngl
'Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss, Godslay.' -Yharim.

⬇️
🐉
No he’s full sized
Even better
Imagining Yharim sleeping on Yharon like a big bed
A big floofy bed
Yharon was a very effective propaganda tool.
This is why yharon is the greatest
Honestly the funniest part is that is current sprite reminds me of a fluffy blanket
Either that or fried chicken wings
Yharon is was fat
'Join the crusade, we have a dragon.'
He is very cool
hi
You definitely wont be reduced to ash by a god because she decided you failed the vibe check that day
Hello.
DIE
DANGIT
Instead you will be turned into ash by me!
What did I do? :(
Accidental embed not-fail!
Also is there a calamity version of this
What even would the Calamity version be?
This is very important
Idk
"We have come for your souls!"
"Get the FUCK OUT OF MY AERIE!"
Or...
Draedon + Exo-Mechs: "We have come to test your mettle!"
"Get the FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE!"
Doesn't really make sense because you summon them
But
Shut u-
LMAO
"we have come for your auric souls"
Space goji got providence shape
the whole calamity lore could be summarized by this image (yharim speaking)
exact same text with moonlord, pillar enemies and zeratros
exactly
Light dragon
crazy
Yharim wishes he was as cool as zeratros
zeratros has negative aura imagine getting no diffed by a random alien lmao
My brother in christ he is the final boss of the base game
tbf that alien has like 7 eyes that shoot lasers
The dragon tha gave Xeroc their soul.
“Gave”
we dont know if they gave them
gave or was taken from
it could be, it could be not
How it was given is up for question.
yharim claims xeroc stole it
For instance, stealing.
but yharim is biased
Tbf that part is probably accurate
Yharim was only fighting the woke he's is completely innocent.
no it isnt his ass wasnt even born when xeroc ascended

he got the info via the most biased source of information
yharon
Plot twist: Yharon made up his backstory so people would feel bad for him.
Do we know if xeroc mask was auric or just regular gold
I think they arent auric attuned, not sure tho
It was made for aura farming if that helps.
i mean like gold would be a little weak of a metal for something of their standing
tru
It's lead with gold paint (lead based.)
I think it's best left for personal interpretation
mystery is cool in this kind of situations, adds tension
Leadpoisoningmaxxing.
it's clearly yellow luminite
xeroc fucking dies from lead poisoning
hell yeah
Its made of frozen spelunker potions
thank you dye trader npc
real
Xeroc's mask is Orichalcum, obviously.
bad ending xeroc somehow loses auric attunement mid fight and their face gets auric rejected
that's what yharim's pink armor is made out of 
Not the pink armour!
plot convenience
God of Lead Poisoning
thats me
I wonder what yharim would think of betsy
Maxie goddess of lead
nothing cause she isnt canon
Thats why i said would instead of just thinks
'That's sick as hell!'
or maybe nothing at all
Anyway What dragon do you kill for that
the interaction would be like
"hi yharim from terraria calamity mod"
"omg it's betsy from dungeon defenders hi"
Betsy would be presumed to be an offshoot snd so treated like a fishron or folly or wyvern
Probably
Dragon of Plumbing.
lead, perfect ascension
the lead dragon
Peam
goddess of léad
damn
anyways breaking free from newfound porject monn autism to work on writing for cal before silksong comes out, today on stuff cei writes instead of what's actually mandatory for SSO: "wouldn't it be funny if during calamitas' overhauled introduction as a non-hostile NPC, where you could assume she came back to fight you again, and go down a dialogue path about wishing she did and then being able to immediatly refight her from that"
What?
She should ask something like "Are you sure?" before the refight
i feel a need to write shonen protagonist tier dialogue branches like this sometimes
Scal + permafrost superboss when
“Alright here we go again i guess”
What's a 'shonen'?
lmao
Goku?
anime or manga that its main audience is men or something?
yes, goku
Shonen protag
Gotta be one of my favorite genders
Goku! :)
hey! its me goku!
yeha goku being the exact archetype who'd do something like that
I'm still trying to parse what you said give me a minute.
Lieutenant Titus from Space Marine II or something idk
meet again with somebody who tried to kill him, and be dissapointed when they don't want to just fight again
and aks if they can fight again
draedon NEEDS dialogue like "hey it's me, draedon! I've heard you're pretty strong"
Goku wouldn’t ask if you’re sure he’d just immediately power up
real
no goku is a nice boy he would ask
il make sure to add that on a mod im working on
thx for the idea
So are you saying after getting Calamitas as an NPC you can talk to her and ask if she came to fight you?
LMAO
amazing
IIRC the SSO update will have newfangled dialogue trees for NPCs
no before town npc, how it'll work is that she'll go away after the fight
I can't imagine draedon talking nicely with emotions like goku
it's just too funny
and come bakc like a day later as a friendly npc but not a town npc
somewhere in the outer thirds of the generated world
if you actually want her in one of your towns you'll have to invite her
Looking at the new world that you've built, I assume?
"hey I heard there is some nice cave down there"
When are they adding homeless Calamitas pre fighting her.
So you can laugh at her if you're evil.
no, just being homeless
never, she's busy doing things in other places
Hey so uhh this guy is my friend and how about i make him voice draedon trust
Laughing at calamitas causes her to not only start a fight but immediately enrage
the creature
That's too bad, you know our favourite activity is tormenting the homeless.
anyways it's so funny how i went "ok i need to break away from my newfound project moon autism and work on calamity stuff again for a while"
and then immedaitly
That would be unbalanced. She just runs away and cries 😢
silksong in two weeks
What's a Project Moon?
The opposite of Reject Sun
on one hand i cant be mad. on the other hand this is gonna destroy my productivity
What’s balance?
this year is getting crazy in the world of gaming
I don't need to worry about that much, they only make games in my favourite series every decade.
but yes after finishing canto 8 in limbus is was gonna go back to cal writing but started lobotomy corperation instead
deltarune silksong and sso in the same year
I've heard of that...
have fun on day 30-50
True torture
wait what's sso?
am not too far in only bene playing for like two days, am on Day 15
Sunken Sea Overhaul.
they should add my cat in SSO
is your cat friendly
No.
depends on the weather
It's evil and messed up.
this could work as a gameplay feature
attacks if it's not raining
Dawn of War IV was announced recently. CYRUS RETURNS!!!!! 
Honestly the better question is what the hell is Calamitas doing during the game.
Scavenging for food
eating rocks
Eating kfc
Bubsy is back.
She's broke, can't afford it.
stolen
various things you may or may not find out about
Chicken nuggets from yharon trust
depends on how i feel
we crave the lore
Wait, guys, is 'Champagne' ever mentioned in Terraria or Calamity?
Slide them lores boy
Eating herself
Scal eats cheese
I know where this goes and i dont like it
Please I need Calamitas lore I need it in my veins!
:)
What if Calamitas used Draedon's cloning tube to make a second clone of herself, that she took back to her cave to use as food?
You will never unread this
guys
MY EBMEDS
Human flesh is toxic to humans.
GIVE ME MY BEMBED
laugh at this user
gifs fail to embed in this server every single time lmfao
That would be an awful idea.
She'll be fine
She's weak to poison!
She isn’t already
Exactly!
So you can't read?
yharim i remember you're genocides
She has like almost 2 million max HP. She'll live
It looks like gibberish
Well 960,000 in normal mode, so almost 1 million
Normal mode no longer exists
I got rid of it
Ah, good
Revengeance is the most reasonable look at stats.
isn't that the canon difficulty?
Yeah that's why I mentioned it as most reasonable?
ye
actually how cool would it be if i just make bosses remember your previous runs
Like if u killed them 5 times in a row
Even if on different worlds and etc
Calamity isn't a meta narrative.
Calamitas will not turn towards the screen and say "I saw what you guys say about me on the internet."
it'd be cool if xeroc did that
It wouldn't make any sense and it would make lore discussion somehow more insane.
it would be the only one that makes sense I think
We already get people asking if Devourer of Gods devourers gods.
He devourers mcchickens
We don't need people asking about remembering genocides.
trust
Alr tho ig
whatever u say doc
"Tarkus, do you remember when Chapter Master Kyras came to Kronus, after the final victory?"
xeroc says "terrarian i remember you're genocides" and then gaster walks in from behind him
Xeroc is filled with DETERMINATION
'I'm Wing Gaster, I made the Calamity.'
I remember: you are genocides!
And then Terrarian was genocides
Not unless I pull out the holy fire extinguisher of Antioch.
absolute cinema
It was difficult to put the calamitas together
why is this dead
quick question, why do we kill aquatic scourge
isnt it a peaceful creature that we just randomly attack
you choose to
so like
we kill a random peaceful aquatic creature
for fun
AS is an optional boss and whenever it spawns naturally you have to strike it first
real
draedon speech bubble
yeah
real
whats the lore behind hell armored bones
old azafure soldiers probably?
im gonna go yharim mode if i see one ever again
all skeletons are yharim's victims who got trapped in Gay Baby Jail
so it's likely not azafurian me thinks
probably random skeleton powered by plant's souls or something
We? The terrrarian lore is up to you 
You decide if you kill AS
or spare it

oh then i came become yharim 2 then
Man that emoji is gone
it would be funny if you could chose to kill scal
just because i like killing things
then boom all the scal content is locked
who needs enchants anyway
let him come at me
That's mean! :(
he wants a fight i'll give him one
supreme permafrost..
permafrost.. i remember my getfixedbois..
then after i kill him i team up with yharim after telling him "my b" for killing his pet dragon (he'll rebirth anyway)
i share his vision
when you fall in terraria yharim appears in front of you and says "it's kill or be killed" but then the guide scares him off and oh wait wrong game
omega flowey is an old version of ares made by draedon when he was 5
real
Hides away to recover from her injuries, I think it's somewhat implied that when we fight her she's still weakened, even if it's been around fifteen years since the fight.
i see
so were all/enough to cause an extinction of the azafurians killed in the fight
well i would imagine some still live if scal and the guide survived
alright that works
though not sure if the guide was there when it fell or if he had already left
was brimmy like a demigod or something (didnt consume a soul but isnt really a natural thing) or what
she is an elemental
oh right
in the name
uhhh how do they come around though
do they just kinda appear whenever
They just exist I guess?
They're living embodiments of the components of life.
Including Life.
It's not unreasonable to assume the devastation could be up to 'everyone present except Calamitas and Brimstone died', but obviously even then the entire population of Azafure weren't all at home at the time.
i do wonder if brimmy can actually be killed permanently or if silva is the only one that can't because she is the life elemental
Obviously, there could be survivors that were there we don't know about.
i see
cause yeah i was thinking either protag 2 (story talk yaaawnn) was either kind of willed into life by the azafurians, or if they're just a random one that decided "i want revenge"
I think it's that so long as their element exists they're unkillable.
So Silva needs all living things to die.
brimmy was like their benevolent protector that just randomly woke up one day and decided to throw hands
Brimstone would need heat to just not exist.
Anahita would need water to stop existing.
wouldnt she just be alive anyways because she's still alive and thus life exists or is she exempt
Cloud would need everything to become a vacuum.
Sand needs earth to not exist. Good luck with that.
we should theorize what set brimmy off
maybe the heavy industrialization or smth
She hates broke people and was after Calamitas specifically.
or they were just grumpy when waking up uhhh i dunno!
fair
Humourously, tax collector implies Terrarian can perform a perfect resurrection but chooses to only perform it on tax collectors because they're evil.
hey no other resurrected souls are giving me 5 plat a day
Obviously, the real reason is because tax collectors don't have souls.
Thus easy to ressurect.
Can't come back wrong if you're already a flesh puppet.
Is there any lore on why dreadon dumped his trash in the ocean right above the Abyss? Or did he just do it there to be funny
More space
It was convenient, already polluted and he probably wanted to see what would happen.
That is true sulphurous sea already kinda existed thanks to azafure
I keep fucking his name up it's Draedon not Dreadon
But this dude fucking saw a poluted ocean and thought "might as well join in"
Dreadon is an accountant
What about Dron
Illegitimate uncle.
We do not talk about him
Dron just appeared one day and no one could get him to leave
No dreamdon is a speedrunner
No, that's Yharim's YouTube channel.
Repulsive
do you think xeroc even gaf about yharim
since he's like uncontested top 1 in the verse and has more important things to worry about i think it'd be funny if he just didn't care abt yharim
He'd at least know of yharim
yeah i know
but would he even like
humour a fight
or just "i have better things to do goodbye"
Yharim obviously tried to duel xeroc 
xeroc 2-0d him and blasted the message of yharim being a fraud to everyones minds and that started the crusade
What is the latest version of the lore doc?
the one pinned
Ah shit im stupid, tysm
If a postal dude asks every calamity character to sign his petition, would they?
permafrost would, draedon might, calamitas would light him on fire
draedon would get like
incredibly interrogative about the nature of the petition
but not because he's suspicious or anything it'd be out of genuine curiosity
kill calamitas being a rude jerk headcanon ❤️
well its less a headcanon more like just flanderization atp
hopefully it'll die down a bit once her rewritten dialogue drops
the new update added too much nonsense lore who even reads it anyways smh my head 🙄
who is amidias and why does he sound like amidas
amidias is the king of the sunken sea
i pretend i do not see it
Hype moments and aura bro
Why does anyone do anything? Because it's cool
Also what's Calamitas' new character like cause I want to not butcher her in writing
cheese
Noted she is now a giant rat who has cheese magic
im jane calamity mod
Alot of people write her as "I H ATE PEOPLE !!! LEAVE ME ALONE" and this is kind of the flanderization i mentioned earlier when its more like just. yeah shes kind of introverted but if someone invites her to a party she'll probably go but just like stand on the back drinking soda or something
Also she is very much the traumatized pstd creature but another thing people kinda flanderize in that regard is that they write her as like. a girlfailure loser who can't do anything and who gets scared really easily and blehhh
Ok so uhh is a generally chill dude with somewhat lingering trauma a good enough characterization
She'll be Fine as long as Yharim dosen't come knocking on her door at 3 am
at which point yeah panic attack probably
Do you think she'd be the type of person to support someone similar to her (y'know just doing way worse)
honestly yeah basically
Yeah
She's generally trying to be a good person to make up for The Horrors
Cool since I plan on putting mine through the wringer 😈
tbh who wouldnt get a panic attack seeing gold hitler at their front door
Hitler didn't have an awesome suit of armor so lay off the mischaracterization bub...
if i saw hitler at my front door i would just push him down the stairs the dude would be like
140 years old by now
its like you spin a gacha and its like. CONGRATULATIONS! you got SILVER HITLER (RARE!)
and then youre like
WOAH GUYS NO WAY
his ass is not surviving a gentle breeze
unfortunately you cant push yharim down the stairs
I GOT GOLD HITLER (LEGENDARY!!!!!!)
Byeah my biggest worry in the story is absolutely butchering the characters since I do want to respect the source
Kind of why I'm stressing how to handle Yharims death since for the story's sake he does gotta die but I don't want it to feel like a spit in the face to the actual character
still a big fan of how 99% of automod triggers for the word hitler are this channel talking about yharim
insane
my silver hitler and gold hitler messages will be forever in automod now
