So the yharim fought the sun theory is proven now?
Im not surprised the concept trackk made and titled by composers in complete isolation from the lore writers isn't 100% accurate with its naming
That's the name of the guy who made the song.
alsp yeah we just realized lol
Xeroc #1 fan, AKA Tyrant.
Why does everyone think the song is for someone called tyrant 😭:
bro tyrant is like a huge lore nerd he'd NOT name the xeroc track tyrant 😭
"complete isolation" mfw
bro literally out here making a lore documment for FUN
He's interested in the lore?
Really?
Could have fooled me.
Yeah tyrant is a lore nerd
well the track isn't named tyrant we were just going off the forwarded message lol
we didn't remember the announcement didn't name the track at all
Throwing you out the window

Yharim is making a lore doc?
.
It's called lore items
Lea spores upon this wretched place
and poiler talk channel preferably
What lore does the mechanic's shed have
Beyond presumably being a shed belonging to the Mechanic, I don't know.
I thought you're the lore master
I'm sorry for not making women I rescue from Dungeons explain to me the history of their sheds.
I guess you're not the lore guy after all
It might have tools
And it may or may not have belonged to the mechanic
The mechanic's shed lore is up to YOU!
The Mechanic's she'd lore is—hey wait what are you doing NOOO

Zeratross should be extremely strong, right?
how much
He’s dead much
Yharim
Seems to consistently be around that ballpark of strength
What was it, more destructive but less skilled than Yharim or something?
Or was that just Calamitas.
Idfk
in raw should be very strong
but if i remember
the dragons never trained
zeratros is just moderately stronger that the primordial wyrm
or well. at least prowess wise
makes sense,
he’s above Calamitas in the destructive category if thats ehat you’re looking for
Zeratross was the strongest Dragon?
we can assume he was
imagine Rebirth being above Death. that mustve made (dragon of death’s name here) depressed
Yharon is second strongest auric dragon and only behind their king
Isn't Yharon young compared to the others? Didn't Zeratross have around 3000 and Yharon 2000?
'And yet, one of these majestic beings reached a height of power possibly second only to their king.'
What?
Yharon is one of the oldest.
years
Yharon if anything is like 3rd oldest
oh
the dragon aerie is thought to be at least 2,000 years old+
how many age had Zeratross in the moment he died?
We also have no concrete age for the auric dragons for all we know it could have been 100K years before ml invaded
Unknown.
so we can probably say anywhere from 2,000 years in the past to well
buttfuck somehwere
i remember that I've heard that Dragons inhabited Terraria approximately 1000 years ago
counting that Xeroc killed Zeratross 800s years ago
faaaarrr longer than that
No idea who told you that.
we need to get this lore doc out bruh
It was 850 years ago.
In this same chat, all the information I got from here
Dragons had been around for ages by then.
Auric dragons predate azafure
Zeratros is fodder
Got no diffed by moon lord
Dragon of Sneak Attacks.
curious
do they predate deez nutz tho
if Prime ML was extremely powerful, how did he fall off so hard?
wouldn’t it be super easy to stay that strong forever?
You get a lobotomy and your legs cut off and see how strong you are.
yeah but like, wasn’t he the same power level as xeroc, or stronger?
couldn’t Prime ML have annihilated the people attacking him out of existence
have you tried getting a lobotomy and having your legs get cut off?
I've done the first part of that already
Xeroc is far stronger than Prime Moon Lord ever was now. Moon Lord stands borderline no chance.
Although, even after getting his skull cracked open, organs removed, body chopped in half, and sealed for centuries he's still extremely powerful which I think speaks to how strong he truly was for just surviving as I don't think anything else could.
He puts up a small fight
Prime ML against Xeroc?
Yeah
prime ml is the second strongest
Out of anyone has the biggest chance to win against xeroc but still unlikely
it’s honestly kinda crazy that every single lore character combined still wouldn’t win
(well maybe they could, but still pretty unlikely)
I highly doubt that moonlord still has a chance on its own so add noxus and yharim and other strong characters? Yeah i see xeroc falling
The strength of xeroc rn is kinda very in the air so dev statements vary so much they arent that reliable
Everyone ganging up on Xeroc at once?
Probably could kill him.
The issue is that getting everyone to work together is basically impossible.
insert that one Sneak Attack image
I'm of the personal belif that
Terrarian + Prime ML could give Xeroc a run for his own money
But yeah its as melon said
gl getting the strongest characters to team up
like out of all of the strongest character i think the biggest team up you can get that COULD realistically happen
would be like
terrarian, calamitas, braelor
cheese
I mean, you could also go Terrarian, Yharim, Draedon, Yharon, Devourer of Gods if you want to villainmax.
chees
See thing about a villain team up is that
well ok
terrarian, yharim, yharon i can see
And an army, I suppose.
draedon and devourer are maybes i think, i think yharim/yharon would be willing to work with em again if they Really Need to so fair
so yeah in that case i think that'd be a larger actually plausible teamup
DoG technically still works for Yharim.
Yharim has shown he's willing to still work with Draedon if he must.
And draedon dont gaf
Why didn't yharim just rub a lamp and ask a genie to un-godify xeroc
By the time he thought of that, he had already killed all the genies
He killed the god of genies
yharim dosen't shower due to the existence of the god of showers (which he killed)
he would never dare to partake in such a foul act, propagated by the falsely divine
Wait
does that mean
he also didn't allow his allies to shower either?
I mean, he probably wouldn't want his comrades to partake in such foul acts, propagated by the falsely divine, right?
yep
he didn't allow them to
thats the true reason perma and cal left they couldnt stand being forced to be stinky as hell all the time
Now THAT is a calamity
Also
I have a question for you chees
Do you perhaps like apples?
Draedon is on some non-chalant shi
boys, boys, i'm tryna research, leave me alone typ shi
And then he proceeds to shake his artifical dreads
Honestly
Imagine if Draedon had a low taper fade
genuinely
yharim doesnt shower because the auric lightning would fry him alive
and he never takes off the armor
that moment when i swing my pickaxe at the auric ore but i fall and perish
(i was SHOCKED to death)
Wait shit you're right
I just realized somethinf
AURIC TOILET
IS AN ACTUAL TORTURE DEVICE
he's immune
but i imagine walking around without armor would be incredibly uncomfortable considering the burns
does the auric toilet reject your waste
Idk but it'll shock you a lot
but the bars are already coated in yharon's soul so it wont kill you
The burns atp coild be healed
Oh
Wait
I just realized
yeah they're probably healed but that's just
i mean surely skin grafts are a thing
still very uncomfortable
yharon is the main catalyst of a genocide
I mean heah duh
Yeah or some wacky magic or super tech stuff draedon could do
what if we skin you and give it to yharim to wear
would that work
hypothetically
this is yharim under the armor #factualandreal
I dont think melon skin does well for humans
Is that dbd springtrap
yes
id send the half life model but errr
yea
SHUT UP! My dad words vor VALVE and will use your decomposing corpse for a model texture
they had much more fun with the gore in l4d/l4d2 iirc they took inspo from like the elephant toothpaste experiments
Your dad words vor valve
FUCK
My hatred runs pure, uncorrupted by compassion or nuance
Hi guys
Time to join the lore
Don't mind my tag
Cause that be a diff type of lore 💀
Present your questions.
concerning
im looking at the server banner and genuinely what is this this looks evil and im trying to like make it and it doesnt sound like anything i would know either
I think that's Megalovania.
It's that song from geometry dash
anyone wanna draft a distortion ecosystem
I think it's purple
nop
i don’t think it would even really have much of an ecosystem
it's planned to be one
New theory: Yharim is actually The Great Papyrus!
(Who is also the Roaring Knight
)
Always bet on papyrus knight
@woeful hatch is calcalith pro or anti lgbtq
Pro, she's pan
Also why are you asking here lmao
Did you forget you were in lore chat
No
This is quite fucked up
:3
When is sso…
Add ebonia
Evil hell child
Wtf did she do
Apocalypse ebonia….
She hasnt done that
yet
She aint doing that the rp would fucking explode if she did 
Yeah but i dont think they would be quick enough to not have her end the world
Or just give Sarenio’s ult matter deletion instead of just vaporizing
Matter deletion is already accounted for by the immortality
It just fails
That would make it less effective against her
That’s pretty busted
Well yeah its almost like the universe hardcoded her to not fucking die to anything present on the planet including mark
The nefarious mark
I mean yeah that's kinda the point of an heavens-created apocalypse weapon
Be good at bringing the apocalypse
The rumbling
You are not meant to be able to bypass the test
Heavens way of saying „you fucked up, now fuck you.“
Anyways let's get outta here before some poor schmuck sees us talking about OCs and thinks they're canon
As funny as it'd be
Itd be funny tho…
Wdym Sarenio is canon to new lore
As is Léa
She’s literally the terrarian
To anyone confused, it's been a long time since the last update, the others lost their minds a long time ago. Also, the answer to your question is that Nameless Deity is not canon.
Hi
Gurt: yo
What are you on about its just rp rot
I am honestly quite surprised this channel is still somewhat active
How could there be any lore without an update
Which hasnt been discussed
The most relevant recent lore thats been discussed was yharim fought the sun theory and some theory about storm weaver
Other then that uh this chat is just rot
1- new people asking for lore
2- lore regulars making theories because the lore is still incomplete/not fully known
3- rot
Cook the yharim?
Yeah, that looks like it's a confirmation that came just yesterday, so we do have more info
Also other dev statements and such
Or roy xd
Reign if yharim and the roleplay fall under rot imo
Both
That might be a theory
A game
Theory
This chat has died of death
Not a big surprise
Roleplay
Ecumena is furina
Furina is Ecumena
Furina is Reb (according to Reb)
But furina is also Ecumena
So Ecumena is part of calamity
And Reb is therefore calamity
die
i see how it is
🖕
I put roy and rp there, literally no bias
Throwing you off a building into a pile of bricks
comparing royrot to rprot that is definitely bias
theres like no royrot ever except once or thrice a month
As such, it is our duty to make it more common
the rot consumes.
Halloween Tomorrow, implement it into Reign of Yharim, and you will sell 5.38 million copies minimum.
Have you guys heard of this guy called Ceglon
yea heard they were tupid
True…
just like its creator

Whoever could that be!!
No
all the royrot is concentrated in blunderbeard
Is statis melee or rogue
Melon
Fruit Ninja.
lemon knife
Hi guys
One question
Wtf is this?
Is it a fanfiction or so called old lore?
The whole page really looks like a fan story, inspired by old lore
the lore is very inaccurate on the fandom wiki
Total calamity is a now dead rp that got its own wiki for some reason
Different to the rp that haunts this chat nowadays
Total calamity wiki is that wiki
Yeah, but I do not chase lore accuracy by looking at this subject
This the equivalent for the modern rp ig
If it is an old lore - I am not surprised why people claim that Yharim has more aura in it
I mean this thingy
Not even old lore its fanfic
Sad
Doesnt stop people thinking it was or is canon
I LOVE NOT CLARIFYING ANYTHING ON MY FUCKASS RP WIKI
What are the confirmed dead gods again and which are most likely to have been slurped by DoG
like the ones we know the name/domain of
i'm gonna getcha
Eaten by DoG, Otonilou is like, the only guaranteed one.
i'm just gonna assume all but like, three were slurped up for the sake of cool
so what are the dead gods again
that yharim killed at least
Dogma, War, Shakidou, Otonilou, Tyrian(?).
Discord, war is an English word stop underlining it.
dogma and war are wof, depending on when shakidou died might be before dog existed
are wof?
i'll say shakidou tyrian and otonilou will be godslop now
Also DoG probably eats Providence and Slime God's corpses probably get eaten off screen if you kill them.
wall of flesh
and provi yea
I thought they were the hive mind and perforators
they are currently in/partially in wof
Some bits of gore may have gotten lost.
what do you guys think would happen if one or more domains/godly souls were forcibly smashed together
yes and no, because theres other gods that are part of them too
would they just kinda be broken down
Polterghast.
would they do a fusion dance
noxus will likely know
bigger god biome mess
yes thats why im asking
im working on a noxus interpretation
who has been forcefed godslop by dog
'Don't worry little Noxus, Uncle DoG's got enough Godly Essence to feed you your entire life.'
prob less themed on one singular theme like corruption as rot or crimson as gore
also prob yeah polterghastings if big physical vessels start forming
Polterghast is when you smash normal souls together.
Stronger souls seem to just make Polterghast faster.
so it'd be like a third world evil
on super fucking steroids
i don't think the spirits would even be slightly sentient; they've been in the noxus hivemind for a while
yea
hallow:
i've landed on a character for noxus so i'm working out the logistics
thats a world good
gay is good
its also of benevolent gods
This is the LGTV agenda or something I don't know I'm the diversity hire.
world evils is inaccurate description unless you dont include the hallow
god corpse biomes
like i dont imagine noxus/the distortion is outwardly hostile but it just so happens that they want to exist everywhere
dog is just a prick i guess
lol!
moonlord is you??????????????
moon lord is... terrarian... is you?
i used to have a ml pfp...
when will you be the terrarian
but you are the terrarian
did we learn what the fuck this was about
Goozma real.
Either that or the Dragonborn was walking around somewhere.
Or a Dragon had two souls, I guess.
Wait, I figured it out.
Old Duke's just an idiot.
pfft
Nope
hi stip
What?
ah rebecca spouting random stuff ig
I mean kinda but also not really
Clearly my theory that the Elementals are related to the World Soul was right!
A shard of it split into five and made them.
This theory has no flaws whatsoever.
i need to reread that conversation i think everyone her had their brains melt during those few hours
hi rebecca
Ok so uh
The information I intended to convey with that statement is true
I'm just stupid

Why did I get pinged!?
convey the info better then
Yeah
So the amount of Dragons is equal to the amount of Souls
But there's a catch
(Which we won't reveal)
Yeah
I open the other door!
xeroc
ever or not for many many many years?
Obviously they'll tell me it and I'll make a whole ARG to reveal it.
(Please for the love of God this is a joke don't make me do this.)
found this finally fuck you fuck you fuck you

real calamity dev? this is a one in a trillion occurrence.
its more like 1/2 honestly they show up pretty often
on a scale of 1-metyr the mother of fingers, how much of a lore-shattering twist is this catch
I see... there's an 'Auric Dragon' without an Auric Soul, and it's somewhere else.
jared
Primordial Wyrm is never referred to as being an Auric Dragon.

if you feed a a dragon some auric bars does it become an auric dragon
If you feed a pig a burger does it become a cow?
the burger is able to get digested
if you connected copper wires to an auric bar does it become a source of electricity
THINK.. they could have power generators.. no need for Draedon's Exo Prisms which are overcomplicated
if you feed an elden ring drake ancient dragon smithing stones does it become a bayle
bayle a bitch tho
Maybe but the copper prob exploding first
just make auric copper
if yharim picks up a burger and tries to eat it does the burger get rejected and explodes
bayle is also a badass, it is perfectly reasonable to want to be him
No its dead and not being tampered with by a unworthy person
||I completely forgot that you also fight a buncha drakes that have flame lightning before bayle||

do souls (auric, worldly, or humanoid) require a form or vessel to exist, or can they just exist overall
(see: world soul implies world being who had world soul that went boom)
Souls come to exist from living beings but as we see with multiple items and polterghast they dont need to be in a living being to stay around once made as far as i know
Considering they could be extracted for use in ascension, the existence of ghosts, and Yharon's ability to raise the dead Auric Dragons, it would seem that souls do not need a body to exist.
Godly Souls seem to be an exception, and collapse when removed from their body.
Tho god essence (what it breaks into) is still able to be used for power, hence why hallowed metal or demonite snd crimtane are useful
form is there
i dont believe very powerful souls can just exist as a soul without quickly fading (see the souls) or just being itemable
lesser souls*
very powerful souls probably can but take on a form to remain
There is no indication of souls having a time limit before collapsing.
like:
lesser souls either
are an item and therefore probably aren’t sentient
are the remains of a monster and quickly fizzle out (by being killed)
take on a shape to remain at least in some form (ghosts)
fizzle out as in “their existence is very likely not long lived due to their environment”
also polterghast is a massive collection of souls who all chose that form to take
Theres still the individual souls possessing things in the dungeon
do they possess things? i thought that was the dungeons magickery causing most enemies to coalesque into those wisps
We have no reason to believe Polterghast intentionally formed itself.
it semi did via its spawn text
more so schooled than sentiently thought to do that, but it did make that form unconciously
Yeah the skeletons move and fight things cause the dead are possesing them
like i dont think its intelligently thinking "yes, a large group of me will hurt this guy really bad" i think its moreso a large mob of dead guys all wanting you dead and thats the resulting shape
i could either say thats a form, or i could just say thats another thing they can do to not die
ill prob say the latter since saying form gets lame eventually
Theres also the souls that just
Charge at you
Post plantera
yea those are the quickly dying ones
those are the ones that i thought just materialize because the dungeon traps it and does that
They only quickly die because you kill them.
yes
see "dies quickly due to their enviroment"
they either die quickly or possess something nearby
Not... what that means.
yes, they dont just decay slowly over time
however, they do infact either kill themselves by running at you and dying, or they possess something nearby so they themselves dont die
(the possession is a more explanable despawn)

Only magic we know messing with jared is the goddess of life blessing it
correct me if im wrong but the order goes:
cultist
eidolist
eidolon worm
primordial eidolon worm
the further down the further its apparently messed with
thats what i last remember
Eidolists are messed with to be like the wyrms
Afaik the wyrms themselves are just normal but strong dragon animals
And jared has silva going on
mmmmm

i read rq: eidolists are former cultists who once worshipped dragons
eidolons are very very distant descendants of dragons
"Relatives of the auric dragons, they adapted to hide away in a forgotten corner of the world to survive the great purges. And yet even without auric souls, the power of eidolon wyrms rivals many of their brethren who possessed them." - Bestiary
Would explain the strength but i think wyrms being different auric would be cooler cause then learn more aurics dragons
they're relatives to dragons but do not have auric souls
"The first Wyrm, blessed by the Goddess of Life, held staggering power that surpassed nearly all of its auric brethren. It held a deep hatred for any sign of usurped light, and would have attempted to strike down even the wielder of Primordial Light had they returned to reclaim their artifact. And yet, despite its immense power, it never would have stood a chance." - Bestiary on Primordial Wyrm
okay someone quickly give me a list of every known type of soul, item, lorewise, or otherwise
Yeah cause not all dragons have auric souls only the auric dragons
Offshoot is just misleading when that just means yeah descended from auric dragon
Wyrms and fishrons and wyverns are genetically still dragons they just lack the special soul that made some be very important
Some dinosaurs are still alive as like birds, they didnt stop being that after millions of years while offshoots have like 2 thousand years
the wyrm is to auric dragons as the t.rex is to Kampecaris
Jared is a direct offspring
As in born from an auric
Hence primordial
yes
So not all offshoots are that
yes
jared is to aurics as trex is to kampecaris
related by genetics and descendants, but not by "here at the first dragon"
they're directly RELATED to the first ones, but they arent the aurics
i need a list of these so i can powerscale the souls in terms of stickingaroundedness
World, Auric, Godly, and then the rest are various flavours of normal souls.
But if you want every named type...
i would presume souls of might are likely stronger than souls of light
Light, Night, Flight, Sight, Fright, Might.
Might is the souls of humans.
Same with Sight and Fright.
oh cool
Lemme list em
Soul of flight (from wyvern)
Soul of fright (skeleprime)
Soul of sight (twins)
Soul of might (destroyer)
Soul of light (hallowed enemy drop)
Soul of night (evil enemy drop)
Ectoplasm (drop from dungeon soul enemy)
That pink post ml version (same applies)
Ruinous soul (polterghast)
Auric soul shard (yharon)
Maybe the essence of eleum, sunlight snd calamity as well since essence is soul vibes?
Apart from auric soul shards all i listed were from mortals
No auric dragons died from soul damage so presumably auric is either harder to break or rebirth fixes em
God souls shatter to essence instantly on death pretty fucking fragile
Weirdly enough elementals are completely immortal despite soul and body damage existing including their godliness see silva
World soul split and caused auric souls yeah
Flight are the souls of Wyverns... duh.
i must ask: are souls of light/night stronger than sight/might/fright
We dunno
We can presume they weaker then mech souls due to mech souls used in stringer crafts
But not certain
what about ascendant spirit essence
The stuff making that up are weird so not considering it till we know whats happening to endothermic snd nightmarfuel
oki
endothermic and nightmare are, im pretty sure, just the accumulation of that event
like its just what builds up in creatures from the events and its released when killed, i dont think its a soul
It's also not real, you're just hallucinating, there is no 'Pumpking'!
The post dog events are being nuked and so are the pumpkin moon and frost moon craft items iirc
So yeah uh
Ascendent soul is weird
as of right now
i believe ascendent soul essence is moreso an artificial creation of a fraction of ascended souls
Those events DoG buffs are also not accounted for by the writers when writing the lore
:shrug:
itd make sense id think
then again taking very cold energy and very spooky energy plus some raw hatred doesnt really seem itd make a fragment of an incredibly powerful soul
yharim created xeroc as a setup to go to war against the gods
Especially a ascended god soul when gods are more then just strong
They have domains and such
ocram is the god of famine

what happens to souls after you kill them
they die
like when you kill dungeon spirits, they drop ectoplasm
They break down into soul juice.
yea
but what happens to them then
Which is ectoplasm.
dead
oh okay so they dont dissipate into mana
Ok goodbye for real
or anything fancy
Choose a belief system's afterlife.
they linger a bit after death, and their presence forms things
And go with that.
We dunno what souls made of
yea they just go to an afterlife
we know what two are
the dungeon wisps are made of ectoplasm and necroplasm
That's just soul juice.
Not exactly a definable material.
so we dont know what ectoplasm is
It's like saying souls are made of soul.
exepct for soul matter
if it was soul juice, the rest of the souls would likely also be able to produce it
Like, obviously.
yea they quite literally are
I mean like
If its mana or some other type of thing
Ectoplasm is like a souls blood and flesh i imagine not the particles
ive determined the earth is made out of earth
cuz i imgaine like in calamity, souls are a real thing
What gave you that idea?
well, the earth is made of pebbles and stones and stuff
ike in irl there arent souls, its just a bunch of chemical reactions
They are
but in calamity souls arent chemical
theyre a special something in you
so when you die, that soul has to go somewhere
dungeon souls are either
ghosts but they look funky
dungeon doing shecanery and trapping their spirit in ectoplasm/necroplasm
they just do that
while irl when you die its just chemical reactions stopping you from being alive
i was jus wondering what happens to bodyless souls
Why do ghosts be different to the soul
ghosts are souls but more there
Probably look at necromancy
do they dissipate, do they stick around until theyy posses something
do they reincarnate
No thats other way round
do all living things in calamity have some amount of ectoplasm in them, if htats what souls are like made of
or is ectoplasm a uniqe thing that happens to souls in the dungeon
cuz the dungoen spirits posses dead skeleton corpses right
As i got told by a dev ages ago
If you are alive you get a soul it comes free with your fucking life
Or something like that
Calclone has a soul and it isnt artificially made iirc
how come dungeon spirits dont pop out of them
Maybe the amount of souls in dungeon has saturated the dungeon and so souls dont disipate or act normally after desth
i think my question is in essence, does ectoplasm=souls
right
so
regular humans dont have ectoplasm
since they dont need it to contain their soul
but free souls in the dungeon have somehow conjured up ectoplasm to be contained in
so that hey can keep moving around and possesing skeletons

do you think you can answer my question
It's only 8 PM on Earth
It's midnight, by Greenwich Mean Time which as we all know is objectively correct.
I don't think I've heard of that planet
Who is morally the best out of every known calamity character?
gorthus
By what metric?
And do they need to be alive?
the god of nature probably? silva?
cant imagine she'd do anything wrong, but she probably did
Wdym metric? Also uhh can I get an answer for both
isn't nature itself very morally questionable
nothing compared to what yharim or calamitas did
i mean, natural selection is kinda like genocide
Do we account all actions across their lives or their current alignment?
Anyway, for historical it's likely Vetrasyl and Otonilou who I believe are meant to be the moral peak of their kind.
if a government were to basically force people to kill each other for survival and adaptation, make that go for millions of years.
it wouldn't be a very.. moral government.
Hmm I think we’d need to know both
So if you go by current alignment on the main cast Permafrost and Calamitas are on the higher end, but if you go by all actions across their lifespans they are both pretty bad.
Who are those two?
Dragon of Storms and Goddess of Electricity.
The first probably got obliterated by Moon Lord and at some point had their soul consumed to create the second, who then died to Calamitas.
Exactly how they went from getting punched in the face by a giant monster to being eaten by a jellyfish woman...
The devs won't tell me.
calamity lore is very strange sometimes. and also fun to read
Otonilou is a jellyfish woman.
Not much more to explain really.
Ohh
who knew a TERRARIA MOD would have such complicated and deep lore????
Like how Amidias is a seahorse man.
Honestly It’s kind of nice for calamity’s lore to not be as vague as vanilla’s
oh moonlord didn't eat their souls??
He's furious.
We don't know exactly what Moon Lord does to the souls, but whatever it is it ain't pretty.
Lore is the why of everything, why do we beat up cthulhu is the lore
yeah i was gonna say, isn't the entire reason moonlord being able to wipe the dragons is that, they couldnt get revived due to their souls just disappearing everytime they go up against moonlord
vanilla lore is so vague and small and inconsistent that i usually would disregard it
because.. the Terrarian is YOU, and that's what YOU want to do!
It's CTHULHU!
That guy's bad news!
No, that makes no sense.
If their souls just poofed out of existence then how could Xeroc ascend?
wdym?
no i meant
disappeared as in, like we don't know what happens to them
it's, like when someone gets kidnapped or whatever happens to them. you'd say they suddenly disappeared
you don't actually mean they poofed
you just mean something happened to them.
This electricity person is quite the peculiar fella wheter dragon or god, I’d like to know more about the jellyfish lady
She founded a kingdom with an angler fish, the kingdom was basically invincible until they sent in the nuclear 16 year old.
So she was part of sunken lore?
Yes.
Will there be mentions of her in overhaul?
Yeah.
That's her (former) house.
It'd be weird if she was unmentioned in it.
She's already mentioned in-game anyway.
Where?
Bestiary.
she was one of the 2 founding gods of the kingdom te sunken sea used to be part of, so yeah shes really important
'The seventeenth ruler of the constitutional monarchy of Ilmeris since the tribes of the Ilmeran Sea unified, under the Electric Goddess, Otonilou, and the elusive God of the Seas. Alas, one cannot be a ruler without subjects, and while he remains respected by those who opposed Godseeker Yharim, his kingdom is no more.'
Amidias' Bestiary entry.
shes also considered to be calamity jesus
What now?
unfortunately she was boiled by an impressionable teenager
its a joke, but shes the nicest and most caring god we know of besides what ravager was before being killed
Pre-ravager was nice?
yes
the god of sacrifices yes
sacrifices in this case meant that he did self sacrifices in order to heal and protect his followers
so he was not like an aztec priest or the like who did human sacrifices
but then uh oh! yharim comes in and threatens all of his followers so he has to turn himself in so they dont get killed
and then eventually a particularly insane sect of his worshippers retrieved his body and revived him somehow into ravager, the god of blood
i have no clue how the domain changed again dont ask me
Holy shit the crusade rlly sucked
yeah yharim is kind of evil as fuck
like probably top 3 most evil characters in the entire mod
only really beaten by like. providence and devourer
Killed all the nice gods but let providence live what a masterul gambit yharim
Mfw ur racist and u think all gods are ontologically evil
isnt agnus like jesus
whats wrong with dog
Racist.
i mean he kind of just kills people and is an asshole
atleast yharim has like . a few redeeming qualities
dog is just kind of a dick
ok but not racist enough to top the guy that caused half of the world's population to die
Gives me the opportunity to do something very funny 
Redeeming qualities only make villains even worse
i mean he dosen't really regret the whole genocide thing in fact he actively still wants to accomplish it
An dhe's gonna die eventually regardless since he's ultimately just a mortal
it's so Yharimover..
his old age will be his downfall. he is an UNC.
way older than unc, bro is grunc
Really? I always thought he somewhat regretted it?
He always gave off that vibe
He regrets using Calamitas a nuclear bomb
He regrets grooming, treachery, generally not being effective enough, etc.
Dosen't regret using that nuclear bomb against thousands of innocents to begin with tho
yharim
Like
Genocide? No, he's cool with that.
Don't forget Every Lore Item In Regards To Gods
crimson/corruption? he talks about how THIS is hwat gods truly are. VILE, FOUL beings. these lands are PROOF of it
slime god? he congratulates you for beating it, but says you have yet to chase it down and kill it.
Grooming??
Did Yharim know about dreadon using the sulphur seas as his dumping groind
Then his rhetoric worked
ok so yharim was ok with that i suppose
there were literally like enviromental activists telling Draedon to Stop That
Yharim wants to seem remorseful
fucking up the habitat of countless sea craetures: I sleep
Fucking up the bees: Real shit
Child soldier, you know.
groomed her to become the perfect soldier
Someone who did something bad, not deserving death? Huh???
But I mean, lore from the main game is mainly through his eyes what else am I supposed to do other than believe him?
Think
Yharims trump card
The Lore Items are basically Mein Kampf.
You get what I'm saying?
I thought he regretted everything, he didn’t so I take back that statement
So basically it’s like going through a retelling of ww2
With your main source of knowledge being mein kampf?
Imagine if after World War 2 instead of shooting himself Hitler managed to enter the Shadow Realm, and then he began calling you and explaining about how he had to do all of it and he needs you to keep up his legacy, but he's sorry about how he made the Hitler Youth.
That's Yharim.
See, that's the thing
Yharim does Regret things but also he's delusional
Icl when people say Yharim like
he's lying he dosen't regret anything he's a pure evil monster
that's just, honestly
a horrible flanderization of his character
with that said
yes, he's a evil bastard
like he's not reedemable at all
I wasn’t saying he doesn’t regret anything, I was saying I thought he regretted everything
He has regrets but the problem is that he's incredibly delusional and so deep in his own ideology
Wasn't reffering to you
I define evil as anything that Yharim approves of
More so the way Avitus was handling

can sonic the hedgehog beat yharim
That he literally Dosen't See the entire Genocide thing as evil
He fully believes it's a necessary massacre for the cause of justice
If Yharim disapproves of it, then it's automatically good
He thinks the gods deserved to die
And so did their folowers, if such was needed
He's been fighting on the crusade for what
100 years?
he has lived for over 3x of his life as the Crusade Guy as he has as a normal civlian
Admitting that
why didnt yharon just sacrifice his soul to yharim for a "good" cause in their eyes so yharim can keep kickin on and achieve his goal
Yes, i was wrong, i'm a evil bastard, the crusade was a fuckup
Would be equivalent ot saying 100 years of his life were Pointless and Didn't Help Anyone and just Killed People FOr No Reason
E.g. Yharim wanted to avenge the dragons -> the dragons deserved to die
Yharim wiped out a lot of people, killing people for worshipping the gods. The proper step forward is to kill the remaining population to avenge the gods 
105 years of crusading.
And you're still playing catchup to the English-French rivalry.
I almost want to say that i'd believe
That at the very depths of Yharim's soul he knows he's a fuckup evil bastard
But he'd never truly admit that or let himself really believe that
he'd rather die in his little illusion of heroism
Than to ever admit yeah no im just like super gold hitler
Question: what could the Terrarian do that would hurt Yharim deeply on an emotional level?
download cheat sheet
Befriend every living god.
I'm actually kinda serious about my question
Going by this hypothetical there’s also basically no other ways to find out how the war really went except from his input, so you’d kind of expect that the average person would believe him
instead of immediately killing yharon, the terrarian could wait, and kill yharon in the yharim boss battle
Something something "Terrarian is you!"
Now where is the image
I guess also in the analogy the Hitler Youth were just children with nukes strapped to them that were airdropped world wide.
🤬🔥➡️🐱
Yharon would never allow you to get that far.
true...
I feel like we need lore in the game that doesn’t have bias in it
Yharim's regret for grooming Calamitas is one of his few genuine regrets, isn't it?
Draedon's your best bet, since he's seemingly amoral and thus only cares about the scientific aspect.
He doesn't care about which side wins, only what he can learn from it.
He wants you to beat Yharim since he thinks it will provide more data.
why dont draedon share the yharim's exo auric armor schematics
Patent's still pending.
Draedon is honestly a decent source of lore, the problem is the lore has to be related to him so you don’t get the full picture without yharim-bias
The bestiary is an omniscient truth (besides one entry that's a little messed up rn)
i am the best soruce of lore
Never thought into it that much
Even then I don’t know how most of you guys know the full truth, where do you guys get the lore that isn’t ingame or from the doc which is the lore ingame
would yharim enjoy coke or pepsi more
coke. interpret that how you will
A lot of statements from writers in this very channel mostly
The other doc, which gets its source from me making stuff up and miraculously getting it right.
That's how we know Devouer of Gods' real name is Gary God-Eater.
Really there's the future and lore doc, and the many writer statements from 3 writers that chat here pretty often.
I don’t think a discord channel should be the way to get unfiltered lore though that doesn’t sound right to me
It will all be in the game eventually. The mod is still very unfinished and a lot of the new lore has yet to be added to the game. So for now, until the next big update this is the best they can really do.
I see
i smoked 500 cigarettes i think
this will change soon
many friends and i myself have been making another lore doc wit hdev statements and sources (thanks melon)
melon gun add ou're sources
What, really, no way?!
i cant wait for the sources to slowly disappear over the years as they begin to get added ingame so we dont have to do that as much
i am NOT looking forward to seeing 10 pages of just sources of dev quotes
This
the humble Message Immediately After That One:
overdone everytime an opportunity for talking about unimplemented lore appears
Saying Discord servers are bad for archivism is like saying nuclear weapons are bad for the environment.
Everyone knows it.
you could say im overdoing it
okay
Ok, that's it.
Banned.
Guess you could say it's becoming a little... Fuck someone made that joke already. Fuck. I'm such a worthless chud.
What about darksun?
yea but its straight from the soul
also some cant understand some story principles and may need it written out
Is the number in the title the version of the document itself or that up to what version of the mod it covers?
Just curious
game version
Okay
👍
?
Question about Draedon
Would it be possible that he may have created something that looks like him?
this wording is confusing but if i'm understanding correctly:
yes, he's already made dozens of replica bodies for recon
he shows up to you in one when you contact him
For recon?
No, I mean
Would he make a battle machine/drone and use himself as an inspiration for its’ appearance?
I am asking this to understand does he have any form of narcissism
I think he doesnt
He is highly rational about everything
He has pride in his work, and if anything that would prevent him from making vanity projects if it would compromise the integrity of his endeavour.
How deep is the calamity lore
This needs an iceberg
Like this one? 
Literally or figuratively?
Azafure is pretty deep.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Narcissism no, but pride absolutely
The way he talks about exo mechs is not one of unbiased observer but of proud creator
What does this symbol represent (except “Y” in logo name)?
yharims symbol afaik
I believe that is the literal Yharim's Insignia.
And people still put it on Calamitas' outfit in their fanart.
Oh
Cool
Need to put it in here then
Y-y-yeaaahs
Yah
yharim wtf happened to your car wheres its polygons
No idea when I am going to make something like that with Yharon, Draedon, Scal, DoG, Xeroc…..
Btw
Is it a canon Xeroc’s design?
No
I've never even seen that before
And mango hasnt made ascended Xeroc public (if they even have a design already) to the extent of my knowledge
He made only pre ascension form yeah
Does yharim own property in heartlands
thats the fanfic xeroc form from the total calamity wiki iirc
Plus
This one looks too much like Providence in many places
I don't believe that was ever canon.
I mean, it's just Providence by gayer.
yeah its total calamity design, fanfic
Which is an achievement
I mean, we do see a piece.
The giant sigil in the sky, apparently.
What did they mean by this?
The one that shows up in the bossrush?
yeah
It is his “eye” apparently
Does yharim's mask open up so he can eat
I think that xeroc lives on the sun
thats old lore afaik
The 'Eye of Xeroc' is a nickname, but it's actually called the Primordial Light Sigil.
But he literally talks to us during bossrush
correct
You don't need an eye in the sky to communicate to people
the sigil still isn't their actual eyeball
idk if you know this but people dont tend to talk thrugh their eye
they don't see through it
Maybe this eye is the way he shows himself without coming to us directly
Again, a dev implied that it is technically part of Xeroc's body... somehow.
That is why I called this as an “eye” metaphorically
xeroc ascended into being the concept of primordial light clearly
Not physically
when
^
mango shenanigans
When
Here.
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Xeroc is showing us his butt during bossrush
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

then how da hell is he gonna look like?
Torch god
what are we even fighting then
The same as Noxus
Unknown
empress of light recolor
so part of xeroc is like
bigger then multiple mountainss
?
is he gonna be mostly staying in the background shooting shit or
Theory
Empress of Light is Xeroc’s granddaughter
killing you
why do we have to wait for distortion update why can't they just canonize wotg noxus and put him in the mod
wotg dont even have noxus in it
WotG already retconned their Noxus.
we got no fuckin clue
Ok take him from ccr
