I think for Yharon specifically I like to attribute his extreme loyalty to the fact that

zealous shale
#

Like yharim was essentially the only person close to him as well, and vice versa

woeful hatch
# zealous shale I hate to say I I feel empathy for Mr genocide lol

Yeah, I think that's kinda the point. Like he's evil, messed up, and yet feeling empathy for him is natural, because we see a blind fool that fell down a dark path, but with at least SOME self consciousness about the effects his actions had

And we see that if his motivations WERE really only what he said, and if he approached the situation with nuance rather than blind hatred, he could have been an understandable person

zealous shale
#

I mean he basically gives up his life because he doesn’t want to imagine a world where Yharim gets slain

#

This is headcanon territory though

split mortar
#

Yharon encourages yharim

#

iirc

zealous shale
#

Well yeah ofc

woeful hatch
#

I agree in seeing yharon in a more positive light , even if it's probably headcanon on my end too

Like marching towards your likely death to save another is inherently pretty selfless. Which is an admirable quality. And he really did lose everything. That, alongside not knowing how much he participated in the darker aspects of the crusade, makes him more likeable, IMO

zealous shale
#

Some of this is me going “w-well maybe he didn’t do AS much genocide 🥹” lol

#

But yeah agreed 100%

Nuke italy

zealous shale

#

Yeah ilmeris is italy sized iirc

woeful hatch
split mortar
#

Yharim groomed a child into nuking italy

zealous shale
#

My headcanon series of events is that Yharon’s initial conversations with Yharim after getting away sparked the motivation for the crusade, but mostly everything after was Yharim taking charge

#

With Yharons support of course

woeful hatch
#

Yeah, I think so too? Not that yharon didn't participate at all in the decision making process, but more like he seems absent in the dealings yharim had with DOG, Draedon, grooming Calamitas, etc

split mortar
#

There is rn a weird lack of yharon after the crusade starts

zealous shale
#

Yharon was actually just vibing and totally not burning people alive

#

And and he’s chill 🥹

#

Devs told me 🥹

woeful hatch
#

Why was DOG there but not Yharon

zealous shale
#

Is there any info on braelor and statis personality wise

woeful hatch
#

Gay

zealous shale
#

Or is a lot of that just not in the mod yet

#

Ik that

#

We support

#

Calamity mod if it was woke: wait why did nothing change

woeful hatch
#

No I don't think there's much about them personality wise? We do know that Statis made a deal with signus to get out of the distortion iirc, while Braelor seems to not have done so

zealous shale
#

I forget the mod is like just not done

woeful hatch
split mortar
#

We prob will learn more on statis and braelor when their npcs get added

zealous shale
#

completely backtracking but a big reason I was assuming Yharim’s early phase of his crusade was a bit less “kill innocent people for no reason” was because of permafrost being his friend then

#

Since he’s painted much more positively

split mortar
#

Trans people control slime

zealous shale
#

I will believe any answer

split mortar
#

Slimegod is genderfluid

zealous shale
#

I at least imagine the civilian casualties weren’t AS bad then

#

As bad as y’know, burning down the entire civilization

#

But I could be wrong lots of calamity lore is vague

split mortar
#

Skeletron prime is prob from early in the crusade

zealous shale
#

The first mechs kinda just depend when draedon joined

#

A bit after that

#

I could think about when that happened but it’s so late I’m tired

split mortar
#

True which is like 20 odd years after it started? @wanton pendant

#

The shock troops who flamethrower the civilians we dunno when they started existing

zealous shale
#

Weren’t the mechs kind of out of their control by the way

split mortar
#

The mechs had free will due to the bajillion souls in them

They weren't able to be controlled by draedon

Hey guys, does any of you know why is aureus called that?

young socket
#

for the lore reason we dont know

wheat walrus
#

Astrum Aureus's name roughly translates to "golden star" in Latin, although its name is actually a reference to an infectious bacteria named Staphylococcus aureus

#

What's the point of the ref 😭

#

Wait I acc shared the link in my lang

split mortar
wheat walrus
woeful hatch
#

So that's why it's named after an infectious bacteria

wheat walrus
#

ig

#

b there's a bagillion other infections and the ref js so happens to be "aureus"

#

yk w auric being an important b unrelated thing

#

So it confuses me

#

Puzzles me even

wanton pendant
#

Crusade started in 1781 and Draedon joined in 1803, which means it was 22 years later, and the mechanical bosses had to have been made after Draedon joined.

split mortar
#

Did draedon make flamethrowers or was azafure based enough to makenit themself

wanton pendant
#

How do they get Souls of Fright?
(Why on Earth does a flamethrower need Souls of Fright to craft? Are we using the souls of the damned to ignite the gel? I assume making it so that the souls that made Skeletron Prime using flamethrowers is a reference to the flamethrower weapon being post-Skeletron Prime, but it's just a strange decision, like it's just a normal flamethrower. What did Relogic mean by this? What do Souls of Fright taste like?)

young socket
#

unless they imported a lot of gel

wanton pendant
#

They got Leonardo.

or

does that imply primordial wyrm could no diff calamitas

Calamitas can evaporate water.
Wyrm lives in water.
No water, Wyrm has no home.
Calamitas wins the war.

#

So long ago the dragons fought the Moon Lord.

#

They barely won.

#

King of the Dragons had their soul absorbed by Xeroc who became the first god.

#

People copied that.

#

Dragons are now dead.

woeful hatch
#

TL;DR: The reasons why the dragons are dead is because people can use their souls to become gods

#

Now for the long version

ancient pier

Is that what a Auric Soul is?

Yeah.

woeful hatch

An Auric Dragon has an Auric Soul.

No.

Yeah, well you're a nerd.

They're referred to as Draconic Offshoots.

So we could catch tiny draconic offshoots in a net? =]

wanton pendant
#

Think Wyverns, Dragonfolly, Basilisks, Fishrons, Pigrons and such.

#

And Wyrms of course.

A bit too big to fit in a net.

And they probably weren't allowed in the Dragon's Aerie.

# woeful hatch TL;DR: The reasons why the dragons are dead is because people can use their soul...

Alright, so, for the long version:

The dragons were born from the fracturing of the "world soul", which is what generated their auric souls. Each of them had their own domain, which it controlled. The most notable dragons, are the two strongest ones: Zerastros, the strongest, the dragon of Primordial Light (tied to sunlight), and Yharon, dragon of rebirth, which had the role of perpetuating the existence of the dragons by reviving them after they died.

One day, an eldritch horror called Fovos came to the world, and started destroying everything. The dragons fought back, and managed to seal its weakned body on the moon, but many were wounded in the effort. Including their leader, Zerastros.

A monk called Xeroc, who had sworn an oath of fealty to the dragons, broke it by killing Zerastros and consuming his soul, becoming the first god. Over time , not as a singular effort, other people followed its example and became gods. Some for good purposes, others for not so good purposes. This, eventually left only Yharon, who was eventually found as an egg on the dragon aerie again. Yharim was destined to consume his soul and ascend, but he refused. This lead to him and the egg being cast into the lava, but this let the egg hatch, and yharon saved yharim, which leads to the events of the crusade and later the game

Would it be better to describe such beings as Primordials, then? Being far stronger than Gods'

wanton pendant
woeful hatch

I believe like, even xeroc, the strongest god, could wipe out the life of a planet but I don't think actually destroy it utterly?

Xeroc could throw the sun at the Terraria.

That would kill everyone.

And if given enough time and power, Providence could incinerate the planet.

For me, a true 'God' is a being which can shape reality

And primordial is used on other things
Like primordial light or the primordial wyrm

Ok so, the main aspect of it is it adds a difficulty which entirely reworks every single boss and most minibosses, making them generally harder than base calamity but also more fair and more fun

It also changes worldgen in a few places, like by adding a profaned temple, which is the only place where you can fight providence and the profaned guardians, and the abyss, by adding more mini-structures/sub-biomes

I for one am using an ink well and quill.

ancient pier

It's better for creating individual tabs for different topics

tropic oak

individual tabs you say

ancient pier

Though, the formatting is a little worse, that's only a problem if you're trying to go extra fancy with tables and such'

young socket

Not really

Also to learn about the science of WAR!

if it Pleases you i will also add "Because he Wanted To Study the Stupid Giant Flying Chicken"

And I don't know, Auric too?

ancient pier
#

Wait so, what is Auric Metal, exactly?

woeful hatch
ancient pier
#

Metal with dragon souls in it?

wanton pendant
#

Magic Dragony stuff.

#

Exactly what is unknown.

#

But it's dragon related.

woeful hatch
#

Only people in tune with a dragon's soul can use it

In fact, we can't even use it properly, we just make a mock attunement with the fragments of yharon's soul

wanton pendant
#

Probably not made of compressed Auric Souls.

ancient pier
#

Imagine trying to fight Yharim in the exact same set of armour' Like, you come up to him in cosplay of himself

ancient pier
woeful hatch

#

He has a better version.

ancient pier
woeful hatch
wanton pendant
#

This resulted in Yharim being a weapon to surpass gay people Metal Gear.

ancient pier
woeful hatch
#

Not that we know of

#

Especially since now, the only auric soul left is yharon's

wanton pendant
#

No Auric Souls left.

ancient pier
#

I also wonder then, if the ritual does not make their souls auric, then how does the ritual make one divine?

wanton pendant
#

We don't know.

#

Xeroc made it up one day.

ancient pier
#

Hmm, I see

wanton pendant
#

It kinda mixes your souls together.

woeful hatch
wanton pendant
#

So doing more than one is bad for your health.

#

Doing three would basically turn you into Polterghast.

ancient pier
#

Is that what made Polterghast?

wanton pendant
#

No.

#

Polterghast is thousands of normal souls.

#

But three Auric Souls + your soul would have the same general result.

woeful hatch
#

Polterghast is just many angry ghosts, that fought and consumed each other

#

Until becoming a single amalgam

ancient pier
#

So, auric metal is like, metal that has fragments of a auric soul in it from Yharon?

wanton pendant

We don't know.

greetings, how goes the lore

wanton pendant

No issues, totally.

woeful hatch
#

They were made during the crusade

Less than 80.

They have free will.

They just love murdering people.

Draedon doesn't care.

split mortar

#

So, Draedon respected their free will and set them free or something?

split mortar
#

No

long bloom
#

a lot of the events in the crusade don't have an established order

wanton pendant
#

No, they were used to murder civilians by Yharim.

split mortar
#

Draedon dislikes their creations having free will

long bloom
#

draedon does not respect free will

split mortar
#

But they did their purpose of killing others so yharim used them as he wnated

ancient pier
#

Draedon just didn't care enough to recover them?

long bloom
#

that's why he made the plague

wanton pendant
#

Why would he, he'd just make something better.

ancient pier
split mortar
wanton pendant
#

Draedon is pro-slavery.

#

Yharim is anti-slavery*.

ancient pier
#

In my brain, Draedon would've just decommissioned them as soon as they stopped being useful -- free will or not'

wanton pendant
#

No need.

#

Why waste the effort.

#

More interesting to see what they do.

split mortar
ancient pier
#

So, they still had use

wanton pendant
#

Crusade also only ended around last year.

split mortar
#

Yeah
Draedon just didnt like they had free will

wanton pendant
#

Which would be when their services wouldn't be needed, and Draedon's busy then.

#

Making better, more obedient killing machines.

split mortar
ancient pier
#

So, do we know how the dragons themselves scaled? Were they stronger than Gods or, somehow, does taking their auric souls make a God stronger than a dragon?

woeful hatch
wanton pendant
#

Yharon is second strongest.

#

Zeratros is at least stronger than Primordial Wyrm.

#

All other dragons were weaker.

#

I think they varied wildly, but generally were quite tough.

split mortar
#

Zeratros is like yharim level

#

iirc

#

Dev statement tho

woeful hatch
split mortar
#

So questionable
But fits narrative i think

ancient pier
#

Is the Slime God the first creature with an auric soul or just, auric power, that we can fight then?

wanton pendant
#

Yes.

#

Slime God has a Godly Soul.

split mortar
#

Slime god is the first god we can fight in the game

#

And yeah gods dont have auric souls

I guess the existence of the Slime Queen might uh, throw a spanner in the works of the Slime God lore?

wanton pendant
#

Not really.

They'd change it to be a rogue paladin.

I didn't think the Slime God was like, sentient or capable of conscious thought -- let alone enough to formulate plans like creating a paladin'

wanton pendant

Slime God's still a god.

#

Was a normal guy.

You kinda have to be sapient to do the god ascension ritual

woeful hatch
# ancient pier So, what's the lore on the Ravager?

Used to be a kind and gentle god, Agnus Immolatus, god of sacrifice, which gave his own flesh and organs to heal other people

But when yharim waged war against him too, he was eventually revived into a ritual as a mindless god of blood, which butchered everything

wanton pendant
#

Do not eat the zombie.

long bloom

yum yummy

ancient pier
#

It's only fair

He's like Wolverine if he donated organs and turned into a zombie.
