Mechanical sweat.

i imagine yharim's armor is probably ventilated
because fighting while sweating balls is generally not good

Draedon is even when in crusade had nanobots (look at plague) really far past irl tech
So i dont see the issue of replacing sweat glands
wanton pendant
Vent? Like Among Us?
pliant ruin
like its actually just straight up a advantage in a fight id say even if mostly a minor one
Not to mention
it's just more comfortable lol
cloud ibex
in a world where draedon and magic exists i refuse to believe he still looks like he's been deep fried
wanton pendant
Wait, well ventilated armour? The merchant must have stolen one of Yharim's spares.
pliant ruin
like its actually just straight up a advantage in a fight id say even if mostly ...
being uncomfortable can have a impact so the 2 options are either just eliminating the source of discomfort or locking the fuck in and getting used to it
And while by all means
yharim can and would do the latter

Facelessness to represent a lack of humanity.

we need yharim to take his helmet off unnecessarily all the time like mainstream media characters

NOOO NOT YHARON
wanton pendant
I think yharim works best with helmet on because of this

Yeah, what I was saying, not showing the face and eyes is a way to convey a lack of humanity, which further shows how far Yharim has gone in the pursuit of his goals that there's barely anything resembling humanity in him.
brazen swallow
exactly
he mentioned once that getting thrown into lava with yharon left him scarred, so maybe if we ever see his face the lack of humanity could be reinforced with that
not sure what kind of tech calamity has to keep the wounds protected but like, darth vader only has his mask and a character from fallout I forgot his name has his head covered in bandages
that way we could see either a wounded face of only his eyes
I like the later because it's more menacing in a way
wanton pendant
Could also be seen as that he has become nothing but the cause. So there is metaphorically nothing human underneath, only drive to continue the crusade.
brazen swallow

Could be an interesting contrast with my Terrarians: Yharim having a singular focus on his goal, versus the Terrarians largely not having any long-term goals or plans, just handling things as they happen until they start to realize "yeah, Yharim needs to be taken down", with my characters disagreeing with each other on "what else should be destroyed" and "what should be built after"

Yharim has a helmet because it's Darth Vader and aura

I rejected their whims, and upended their scheme. I was sentenced to execution for treason.
Their meek, ingratiated swine cast both Yharon's egg and I into the magma of Hell.
The intense heat hideously scarred me, but birthed Yharon anew. He rose, wreathed in fire and saved my life.
From that day, our souls were one.

He was probably a slave before.
Which is why he uses manufactured consent. it's a layer of plausible deniability/cognitive dissonence that lets him functionally enslave people into military service without ever actually enslaving them.

this is because yharim is a fraud

It's like, an overcorrection for the evils in the original lore I think.

how should i foreshadow xeroc beyond requiem (and the one before it) without his appearance feeling like a deus ex machina
for the idea i have for the story, xeroc comes in before noxus kills the main protag (and after killing yharim) and kills them before pissing off. while they're talked about by yharim, i want to have a bit more scenes with them so it doesn't feel like some rando coming in and solving everything
though i really don't see how the main protag and yharim could beat noxus without xeroc coming in so like
ideas i had are
- he's shown after each protag's death, not really talking but just observing them before they move on
- the terminus is used to go to the aerie, and when the protag uses it xeroc talks about it
i'm not including the boss rush so

Reread my question again

that was not the question though
woeful hatch
I asked why they fight us in the first place
north socket
I asked why they fight us in the first place
I mean, the slime GOD isn’t fighting
The slime god is the actual core
woeful hatch
Knowing "I can win a fight" isn't really justification to get in a fight
I mean he sends his main protectors to fight us
That's like
Essentially fighting us
Why would he attack us randomly
north socket
would it really be randomly from a lore standpoint??
You summon them, it’s more likely you do something to enrage them

ah, ok
Didn’t know that
So then we’ll assume they’re attacking us for a reason
Well, you did kill the perforator/hive mind before the slime god most likely
woeful hatch
So then we’ll assume they’re attacking us for a reason
Yes
A reason we don't know
Which is why I asked the question "what is the reason"

And the point of the slime god is to keep balance in the world between those, maybe killing them made the slime god mad??

Right, just read that
I’m reading through Reddit and such to get more on them, but not really seeing much
most of the bosses make sense as to why they attack you, especially in hard mode
But now I don’t really see what slime god would want from the player
Maybe that’s something the devs will open up on eventually

we'll probably get that from statis

Who’s Braelor?
One of the followers of Silva, who even had his axe made by her (and that process is what inspired Draedon on how to make Thanatos' armor), and one of the most powerful warriors, who's done deeds compared to the ones done Calamitas and Yharim (by Yharim himself)
Also he's Statis' boyfriend

wanton pendant
He's just a slimy little guy!
pliant ruin
ive said this before and i have no disdain or critiques for lore writers in this regard because i'm well aware that we'll 100% get more info on him later - I won't criticize the lack of content in a unfinished project, i'll save my critiques for unsatisfaction with what is here
But on that note
That does not excempt me from being a slime god hater in the state he's currently in
he SUCKS.
Like he'll be better later i have no doubts
But currently hes a fraud.
wanton pendant
Potential Slime will be great once he gets that tier change!
pliant ruin
god worshipped by the kinsmen, including statis, who will probably be one of our strongest allies
attacks us for no reason. dosen't ever elaborate on why, dosen't try talking, nothing.
runs away.
attacks us for no reason AGAIN.
fucking dies
I've seen the proposal that it's like calamitas
but lke. ATLEAST CALAMITAS STOPS
like she realizes. wait no that's dumb. and chills out
this mfer fights until the very end, dosen't ever elaborate as to WHY he's fighting us, Leaves. and then COMES BACK TO TRY IT AGAIN AND THEN DIES
wanton pendant
'He has the potential to rival Providence! Just wait until he gets that tier change! He just got unlucky, if he could he'd beat Yharim!'
pliant ruin
It's why i have vehemently went against the notion that "slime god is a good guy" before
which was far more prevalent in this chat before i started actually presenting my stance against it lol
Like unless major changes are done to slime god and the context around it in future update, which i do acnowledge as a possibility
He's just not a good guy
He jumps us for no reason and then does it again
And even if it was like misjudgement on its part
Bro its ok. we can talk. we can just talk bro. you can let me know what i did wrong. you dont gotta jump me twice and then die for it.
wanton pendant
So... spareable Slime God?
pliant ruin
I think slime god, with what's currently is ingame
is at most just a neutral (and kind of stubbornly stupid) figure
Which, again, i'm aware can and will likely change as we get more info and the context around the fight and plotline with slime god itself will likely change

A eulogy for it is in order.

bitchass worm
twilit aspen
word. I just read about the ‘yharim thought whatever it ate was completely erased, but it was just transferred from one form to another’, and i thought that was implying that he gained godlike powers/ became a god
zenith geode
perhaps he's a funny tube
wanton pendant
It's probably being sent to his true master.
twilit aspen
who is..?
wanton pendant
The only way to become a god is to ascend with an Auric Soul.
Noxus.
Probably, unless Boxus, his secret brother is real.

polite.
eats bad evil stars for you.
you CAN give it a kissy on its forehead.
DISTORTION worm?

Noxus is a figure from the distortion, dosen't have much of a presence in the mod yet besides vague implications towards it and the fact it's likely really fucking strong, given it's *Potentially planned to be one of the two superbosses in the mod's future

Third party.

independent third
pliant ruin
Yep

Devourer is technically on Yharim's side but
It's really just a mutual benefit alliance
wanton pendant
Is likely dangerous to everyone, but we don't really know much about them.
pliant ruin
and even Yharim could tell that Devourer's true allegiance never lied within him, as he himself says
Yharim never liked the Devourer, but he was extremely helpful, so
twilit aspen
is that in the lore item?

Personally, I think DoG isn't loyal to anyone, even Noxus, because he's a narcissist.

Agnus probably will eventually i feel
wanton pendant
Slime God has a name, but nobody mentions it either.
pliant ruin
I think it's just the lack of ingame implementation currently
while for Noxus it feels more intentional

We don't even know what it is.

oh yeah agnus will definitely have something eventually
twilit aspen
who’s agnus?
wanton pendant
Ravager.

god of sacrifice

ohhh

But not zombie
pliant ruin
God of Sacrifices, got killed and his dead body was ressurected as Ravager

ravager is the god of blood and the revived corpse of agnus
pliant ruin
He's a pretty tragic figure
twilit aspen
i see
twilit aspen
that’s pretty dark
gritty kraken
He’s a chill guy
pliant ruin
He was genuinely just a really nice person
The name "God of Sacrifices" and the fact he's. fucking Ravager now might paint a bad image on your head
But his domain of "Sacrifices" entailed more so
wanton pendant
God of (Self) Sacrifice, to be more specific.
pliant ruin
the fact he sacrificed himself for his people, per example, literally feeding them pieces of his flesh because of its immense healing properties

he may look a bit strange but he's chill

And then some time later a subsection of his worshippers that had went insane revived him as a necromantic, mindless beast that is the Ravager we know

so is that design canon?
yes
wanton pendant
Yeah, unless it gets tweaked, but probably gonna look like that.
Unlikely to get some massive redesign.
pliant ruin
the mod is Unfinished As Fuck and alot of the lore isn't properly implemented yet
So there's alot of little bits of info not ingame atm

He could use something similar to those Draedon log item to sneak that design in

There's concept art that's public.
Don't think there's like, a finished sprite or anything though?
twilit aspen
and is the first update that will actually modernize alot of aspects of it
that’s so hype
pliant ruin
i'd say the most modern part of calamity currently are mostly some of its weapons and gear
wanton pendant
And with the problem gone, future updates should be higher quality.
pliant ruin
Like i can't lie, yeah
some of those are admittedly
really well made even rn
but stuff like bosses, biomes, enemies... not as much lmao
mostly anyways
some of the like structures are pretty good
zenith geode
modern ravager art
pliant ruin
also for such a heavily story-focused mod it dosen't have very good lore implementation yet, by far the best probably being draedon communication
wanton pendant
And then you have post-Moon Lord progression.

I think the brimstone crags are really well done, i love the aesthetic

I think the brimstone crags are really well done, i love the aesthetic
They're probably getting revised.

wanton pendant
Too be even better.
zenith geode
(in like 4 major updates)
pliant ruin
brimstone crags are a standout atleast in terms of aesthethics yeah, but the biome itself is really small and dosen't offer much + enemies are kind of Lame
But they are getting a complete overhaul eventually
will be much bigger, have sub-biomes like the abyss
wanton pendant
Gonna have proper ruins there, other than bridges.
pliant ruin
yaya
wanton pendant
Evidently, the Azafurians freaking loved bridges.
twilit aspen
wait so did calamitas destroy azafure or was that someone else
pliant ruin
she did, albeit accidentaly, alongside brim elemental
zenith geode
iirc the only act of razing that cal did solo was ilmeris and that was over the course of like a full month
pliant ruin
She was like a 13 year old, brimmy wakes up and attacks azafure, she tries protecting her family but gets a sudden uncontrollable surge of power she's never had before, fight ensues, azafure is destroyed by brimmy and calamitas's uncontrollable destruction

iirc the only act of razing that cal did solo was ilmeris and that was over the ...
I keep hearing conflicting numbers for how long it took.
twilit aspen
so why was the brimstone elemental attacking azafure?
zenith geode
wait no it was 3 weeks
wanton pendant
so why was the brimstone elemental attacking azafure?
No one is sure.
pliant ruin
We don't know yet but it likely has to do with her just being disturbed by extensive mining of brimstone
There are other possibilities though
wanton pendant
Most Elementals are violent, though, except Silva.

i see. so that happens, azafure is destroyed, then calamitas joins Yharims army for a bit?

She now really hates yharim and has like basically ptsd regarding him
wanton pendant
So, around when she's 17 by my count.
twilit aspen
I s had a point of confusion w her and Permafrost in Yharims army. Did Permafrost leave first and she follow, or did she leave and Permafrost follow?
pliant ruin
The former

Permafrost first.
Calamitas is sent to kill him.
She Snowgraves him instead.
She goes and hides in a cave for 12 years.
zenith geode
reminder that cal is really good with all magic, its just that she specialises in brimstone and necromancy
twilit aspen
She Snowgraves him instead.
meaning stick him in cryogen?
wanton pendant
meaning stick him in cryogen?
Yes.
pliant ruin
Permafrost left and she left after, Yharim basically sent her to Kill Her Dad
I like to think that she was likely already incredibly doubtful and didn't really want to be a part of the Yharmy anymore at that point but was afraid of the consequences, but being asked to literally kill her adoptive dad which she clearly loved alot was just, the straw that broke the camels back
wanton pendant
It was done to NOT kill him.
wanton pendant
Permafrost left and she left after, Yharim basically sent her to Kill Her Dad
I...
Yeah that's what I think.
pliant ruin
Keep in mind it's basically confirmed t hat Cal left the army before she was even a fully grown adult
she probably was around 17 or so
twilit aspen
yharmy is funny
wanton pendant
Ilmeris would make most second guess their morals, but being told to kill her dad was too far for anyone.
icy veldt
If Yharim had a navy, would we call it the Yharmada?
zenith geode
locking him up so that yharim doesn't see an incomplete job and hunt her but not actually hurting permafrost
pliant ruin
basically ^
wanton pendant
If Yharim had a navy, would we call it the Yharmada?
Absolutely.
pliant ruin
It's
very possible that it was consensual too
Like
i'd 100% believe
that perma was the one that convinced scal to do it
pliant ruin
basically going, well you don't want to kill me, but if you don't, they'll go after you
I like to think that Scal decided to do it but Perma was the one that convinced her
It'd explan the
tearful confrontation wording
The way i see it the idea was to keep him in there until Yharim was no longer a danger
icy veldt
tearful confrontation wording
I also think that she and Perm also had a bit of a discussion about how far Yharim's crusade had gone, basically both agreeing that it had gone too far
pliant ruin
yeah most likely
wanton pendant
I think he gave her hot chocolate before the fight.
wanton pendant
Why was Yharim shattered across space & time? Did he fall into his own creation?
Is he listening?

Worth noting Yharim and the dragon cult have fallen out with eachother though

The others are known as draconic offshoots.
They don't have special souls.
Hello.
pliant ruin
Mainly due Yharim neglecting them help when they needed it most (Polterghast), as he was entirely focusing on the crusade and neglecting his other responsibilities, possibly due to DoG's influence
I'd say i feel bad for them given alot of them probably got Mauled by poltergahst but then i remember they're horrible actually and go nvm

^ ye
twilit aspen
so who exactly were the gods that yharim was waging war against? and why? ik this is like a super basic lore question but brain isn’t braining rn
wanton pendant
All of them.
wanton pendant
The ones he went after first was Dogma and probably followed by War.
But ALL of them were his targets.
zenith geode
evil ones like dogma
morally graey ones like providence
good ones like agnus
every last one of them
a few managed to evade his genocide
wanton pendant
Providence is not 'morally gray' in the slightest.
zenith geode
good motive bad method
twilit aspen
so why did he want to kill them all?
wanton pendant
My favourite morally gray historical figure: Mecha Hitler.
pliant ruin
providence is like as far from morally gray as it can get ill be real
wanton pendant
so why did he want to kill them all?
Vengeance.
pliant ruin
so why did he want to kill them all?
It's a long story
But it can all be boiled down to ignorance, a misplaced sense of self-righteousness and a desire for vengeance
wanton pendant
God of Dogma tried to make him God-King and rule as a puppet. When he refused, he was cast into magma. Yharon saved him, told him his sob story, and they began hunting them all. Yharim also was probably a slave at one point.
pliant ruin
Refusal to accept that his ways are wrong and that his ideology is flawed, even when it clearly is
wanton pendant
Oh, wait, this is a good time for the handy dandy war crime chart! It's been a while.
twilit aspen
So is Yharim a regular old terrarian like us? or at least did he start out as one?
pliant ruin
Gods do bad things to him and yharon, he decides to kill gods for justice, but even as his methods become completely immoral and he kills thousands of innocents for it and when he's confronted with the reality that not all gods are bad people and some were incredibly kind, he still thinks he's fighting for a righteous cause
wanton pendant
So is Yharim a regular old terrarian like us? or at least did he start out as on...
Probably.
pliant ruin
Yharim is biologically, just a regular human, yes
wanton pendant
Here's the motives and crimes.
pliant ruin
Not a god, elemental, demon, anything like that
zenith geode
he's like peak human
pliant ruin
he's just a guy

but he's still a human
tropic oak
i love this image its so fucking stupid
wanton pendant
Thank you.
twilit aspen
that fourth one is Permafrost right?
wanton pendant
Yeah.
zenith geode
he also has access to auric metal which is pretty big
twilit aspen
yeah so what exactly is auric metal is it just the ore of the gods
wanton pendant
yeah so what exactly is auric metal is it just the ore of the gods
Ore of the Dragons.
Not gods.
They don't like it.
twilit aspen
word
pliant ruin
Permafrost and Calamitas are like basically unarguably the only two people who were a part of the yharmy who are actually good people and who one could reasonably forgive
Everyone else is fucked up to some extent
zenith geode
his is significantly stronger than yours because he's actually attuned to a dragon
twilit aspen
But i thought if someone consumed an Auric soul they became a god? how does that work if Auric stuff is dragon related?
zenith geode
while you just shaved bits of a dragon's auric soul off to make it not instantly kill you upon contact
wanton pendant
But i thought if someone consumed an Auric soul they became a god? how does that...
Yharim didn't consume the soul.
Since otherwise Yharon would die.
Since they're both alive, they did a secret third thing.
zenith geode
attunement to a dragon is a massive thing
wanton pendant
That's what happens when the mod's unfinished and we can't make accurate guesses for crimeness.
So DoG somehow ends up looking innocent.
Relatively.
twilit aspen
ohhhh wait so. when we fight Yharon we just get tiny crumbs of auric to use for our gear? why can’t we just absorb the Auric soul?
pliant ruin
We need a ritual
wanton pendant
We don't know how.
wanton pendant
And it's harder to do it with Yharon because his soul runs away.
twilit aspen
And it's harder to do it with Yharon because his soul runs away.
??
zenith geode
dragon of rebirth is a bit harder to get your hands on
pliant ruin
He's the dragon of rebirth, so specifically his soul immediately returns to the Dragon aerie hwen he dies
twilit aspen
ohhhhh
tropic oak
"gods" ascend in calamity by using a long-forgotten ritual used by everybody else years ago, also, Yharon is the Dragon of Rebirth, and is automatically placed back at the Dragon Aerie upon death
zenith geode
he sacrifices small bits of his soul to stay alive
wanton pendant
So he screws off to the Dragon's Aerie.
pliant ruin
This dosen't apply to any other dragons, just him, bc of the way his powers work
wanton pendant
All the others needed him to revive.
zenith geode
so you'd have to kill him a few hundred times to actually get the full soul to ascend with
twilit aspen
Are there any other Dragons we see/fight/whatever in game?
pliant ruin
absorbing Yharon's soul would require you to venture to the Aerie to absorb it while he's still a weak little stupid egg baby + Would need you to actually know the ritual
wanton pendant
They're all dead.
zenith geode
all the dragons are dead
pliant ruin
Are there any other Dragons we see/fight/whatever in game?
Auric dragons? No, they're literally all dead except Yharon
but Dragons in general yeah
Old Duke and Primordial Wyrm
wanton pendant
Unless one's hiding on the moon or something. I doubt that though, due to Moon's Haunted Theory.
zenith geode
offshoots are a thing but there's no more auric souls to go around
twilit aspen
Who killed all the Auric Dragons? was is the gods so they could absorb their powers?
wanton pendant
The gods.
I think they considered having the corpse of one be frozen in the tundra, maybe?
A dragon corpse, not a god corpse. We have plenty of those.
zenith geode
yeah the gods and their groups were the ones who killed the dragons
for example, providence and her guardians
pliant ruin
To be more specific
wanton pendant
Killed Ridley Dragon of Flame.
zenith geode
im sure there were a few warriors strong enough to solo a dragon
pliant ruin
Dragons can rebirth thanks to Yharon, so while they died plenty before, they only started dying permanently
- During the fight against Moon Lord, which had some sort of ability that caused it to make them Die For Real. This cut down their numbers significantly
wanton pendant
Most dragons were weaker than Yharon. Only one, actually, was stronger.
Lunar Bite debuff is real.

- After the fight with Moon Lord, Xeroc ascended with Zeratros's soul, and kickstarted the race to become gods amongst people who saw the ascencion, learned how to do it, then it spread to others and others and etc
These 2 events slowly caused the extinction of dragons

What’s the fight with the Moon Lord? are you talking about the fight we do or is there a historic lore fight?

What’s the fight with the Moon Lord? are you talking about the fight we do or is...
Historic fight.
zenith geode
moon lord used to be way more powerful
wanton pendant
Like, 800+ years ago.
zenith geode
took all of the dragons to manage to fight it off
wanton pendant
Tossed him onto the moon.
twilit aspen
oh that’s kind of like vanilla lore
wanton pendant
Yeah, except instead of dryads it's dragons.
twilit aspen
yes
wanton pendant
And he's not Cthulhu.
zenith geode
and also the lunatic cultist is holding the husk of fovos back in cal iirc
rather than trying to summon moon lord in vanilla
twilit aspen
why’s it still called eye of cthulu?
wanton pendant
Lunatic Cultist is arguably the main antagonist of Vanilla Terraria.
zenith geode
why’s it still called eye of cthulu?
the terrarian sucks at naming things
twilit aspen
fair
zenith geode
see: skeletron prime, miracle matter
wanton pendant
Retinazor and Spasmatism went hard!
twilit aspen

husk of fovos?
icy veldt
Fovos = Chrysadian name for Moon Lord
twilit aspen
ohhh
icy veldt
Chrysadians = sky people
twilit aspen
like harpies or different?
icy veldt
Former civilization that got wrecked by the Moon Lord
icy veldt
They probably had to fend off the Harpies a lot, like Azafurians fending off the demons of Hell
wanton pendant
And no, Calamitas is not a demon.
twilit aspen
Calamitas is a human right?
zenith geode
yeah
wanton pendant
Yes.
twilit aspen
was?
zenith geode
azafurians are humans who just adapted to hell
zenith geode
are there any living azafurians besides calamitas
twilit aspen
I didn’t know whether her power buff during the brimstone elemental fight like detracted from her humanity or something
wanton pendant
are there any living azafurians besides calamitas
Yeah, but we don't know if there are any of the Azafurian race.
wanton pendant
I didn’t know whether her power buff during the brimstone elemental fight like d...
No, she kept her humanity, but what happened after made her feel terrible.
zenith geode
i know there's only one living ilmerian though

Secret Fishman:
Uh, Guide, Demolitionist and Tax Collector are all Azafurian, but not the race.
They either survived, or more likely were absent during the events... well, Tax Collector might have been there and simply... not survive.
But as a Tax Collector, he has no soul, so it's easy to bring him back.
twilit aspen
Uh, Guide, Demolitionist and Tax Collector are all Azafurian, but not the race.
Azafurian but not the race meaning they were born in Azafure to immigrant parents?
wanton pendant
Born in Azafure, but they don't have horns and gray skin, so yeah could be immigrant parents.
pliant ruin
They lived in Azafure but weren't the same brand of gray skinned people with little horns that calamitas is, so likely either immigrated or born from non-native azafurian parents
wanton pendant
Like, Azafure probably had quite a bit of diversity.
pliant ruin
i know there's only one living ilmerian though
Only one that we see tbf
Like
i heavily doubt Amidias is literally the Only One to be honest?
wanton pendant
Secret Fishman:
pliant ruin
Like i'm sure there's gotta be a few more that survived and escaped out there
twilit aspen
yall think there were azafurians who wanted closed borders and were like lowkey racist
wanton pendant
yall think there were azafurians who wanted closed borders and were like lowkey ...
Probably.
wanton pendant
They were an oligarchy, probably, not famed for open-mindedness.
icy veldt
yall think there were azafurians who wanted closed borders and were like lowkey ...
Azafure was a manufacturing hub, seems like it'd be pretty mercantile
pliant ruin
Azafure did literally ally themselves with yharim and were like his biggest supplier so there probably was like a considerable amount of racism in there just being real here
icy veldt
Something like the Italian merchant republics, but with manufacturing instead of maritime trade
pliant ruin
like to put it bluntly they kind of were germany during ww2 which is to say not EVERYONE would've alligned themselves with super gold hitler but like the overall status of society woudl've led alot of people and the nation itself to be in support with super gold hitler
wanton pendant
tax collector has some line about azafurians i could totally see it
"So those punks on Azafure think they can live for free on my lands? Tell you what, do my job there and I might give you a bonus."
He wants to tax the Brimstone Elemental.
pliant ruin
azafure was probably propagandized to oblivion with pro-yharim rhetoeric
twilit aspen

icy veldt
Rhetoric

One does.
