that's the only way
the dragons got the ability to command elements from absorbing shards of the fragmented world soul at some point in pre history
so eventually all the gods will just die out and will fade into fiction?
well i mean
providence sure as hell isnt
but there will never be another
i mean like
from aging
yeah and i meant like
dying in general
from anything
i assumed they wer immortal tbf
then how did yharim kill so many
thats the only difference between a demi god and a god in greek mythos tbf
strength
calamity doesn't have demigods
there is different types of immortality which is stupid
i mean
A demi god is just a mortal with power that matches a god but lacks immortality
you're either a god or you're not
still a mortal just
A really really strong one
yeah still not a thing
the only way to get powers like that is ascending
i mean.. perma frost, calamitas, yharim,
all of em fit the deffinition of a demi god
i mean there are some gods a mortal couldnt possibly even get near to as strong
ie
xeroc
they do not
the former two are regular people that are just really really good at magic (that theoretically anyone can learn)
if you define demigod as a person with power that can rival that of a gods then yea calamity is full of them
and yharim is attuned to an auric dragon
which doesn't make him a demigod
it makes him attuned
it's just not a canon term
^
but like
which is closer to smthn like the archons from genshin than anything which are a weird limbo of immortal but not actually a god but have god like powers
it can still technically be true
they have nothing connecting them to gods
yharim doesn't have godlike powers
he's just really strong
he can't command elements or anything
i said which is closer
fair
i mean the definition of demigod is very loose
perma frost, sorta kinda half can with his ice magic
it can just mean a strong person that people decided should be considered pretty important
i mean herculeas from greek mythos is a demi god and uhm
he's just a really strong mortal
yas
i butchered his name
it's just like not really something worth getting hung up on
magic is just channeling stuff that's already there
god powers would be like controlling the source
because it may technically be a valid term but it doesn't really have meaning in calamity
it causes more confusion than it fixes
i tjink
yeah
perma frost, cal, old duke, empress, and like
maybe polterghast???
would fit demi god
sorta
when i say cal i mean supreme
not clone
actually with current empress lore she would be a demigod
but that's the only example
and it's being retconned
Being able to control an element doesn't make someone a god
and again
being really strong ≠ having godlike powers
whats empress becoming
we dunno
me
non cannon
just make her non cannon she has no point in being cannon we already have enough cannon characters
make her a light elemental or smthn
that would be nonsensical
If they didn't ascend using an auric soul, they're not a god
random one off creature with no lore relevance
that's like
over half the bosses
make eow non canon
???????
the solution is adding cthulu
Adding celeri
killing you
the feds are after me
So I can style on her with a nohit
prime ml postgame superboss where you cant win
dashless wingless no accessories or weapons malice in a 2x3 box
That's not styling that's turning yourself into a rock
vanila lore: bonjour
no armor
you forgot no armor
ye
or you can have random one off creatures with no lore relevance because not everything needs to be super important and it's ok to have some of those. plus they flesh out the worldbuilding
like we can have a dead crab iwht mushrooms on it
we can have a big evil eyeball
its okay
I like crabulon, the fight sucks but he funny and I want a mini crabulon
the fight sucks but he's funny its true
hes one of the only truly silly calamity bosses in my book and i think he has merit just due to that
I think design wise he is my favourite
I DIDNT EVEN MAKE IT
Wack take
murdering half of the world's population is pretty bad ngl
Of fictional people compared to real people
true
i mean yeah
idk hearing "[x] is worse than hitler" is often kinda like hearing "florbo gingus mcshnoodle"
its just a shock value thing
just make cthulhu fovos' cousin
eah it was bad but that was laready addressed
comparing to hitler is one thing and its pretty accurate
just saying worse is a bit ehh
its Accurate Yeah ("yharim is kinda like hitler" invokes ideas and smart thinking) but its not exactly good to try and say "worse" since people are subjective abt that
its worse because hitler killed real people
and yharim killed fictional characters
so it ends up just being kinda insensitive and disrespectful
but it wasnt really done out of malice
xzier was just
and then realized yeah it was kinda fucked up after we told them
im back
im front
I wanna be siffrin
the roaring knight was me
btw yahron was yahrim pet?
Yharon is a fully sapient 2K+ year old being
and how old is yahrim?
130ish
Is stars above mod compatible with calamity mod lore since i want to be immersed with the lore of the world
hmmm who is the oldest being in calamity?
The oldest is either noxus or prime moonlord or yharon/first auric dragon
Unless you count the now shattered world soul thats prob number one, idk if it even counts as a being tho
yharim is around 1350 years old when you start calamity
by the time you kill supreme calamitas, he's canonically around 1750

300 years pass???
What the fuck?
700-300 is 400 dude
Shhhhhg it's 11:15 pm
My point still stands, how the fuck does 300 years pass
Do people naturally just live for a good minute?
😭 no the guys fucking with you…
Yeah I'm gonna have to behead them
Five million gorillas to your home, all with golden pickaxes
Your fibre optic cable is mine
user daidaichin you will be sent to the auric repulsor box
the terrarian is just canonically immortal
draedon mentions it in one of his dialogues
Dreadon looks funny, he needs a better chair. His posture is terrible
Just build a new recon drone
so player in calamity is on the end like 500 years old?
If you want to, I guess?
^
we know they've been around for at least a good few hundred years before the game started, since they know of yharims genocides
which ended a few centures before the game takes place
Btw what happend with yahrim?
Went to Dragon Aerie.
he commited genocides around the world in order to take it over
he also killed all the gods
Ngl the gods deserved it though, the innocents did not obvs
it took anywhere from 500-1000 years all things considered
its true i was there
No not really
Many gods did
But
Otonilou, agnus, tyrian and all gods that make up the hallowed did not
They were objectively a good influence for the past couple centuries
Found one of the Public Opinion bots Yharim commissioned.
yharim is basically talos stormcrown
big hunk man with the soul of a dragon/god
took over the whole world with his empire
also a badass
Yells at people...
I just read the tldr and that's what my brain has formed, but yeah I'm a payed agent
I mean the gods had been ruling the world for tens of thousands of years and the planet was still in horrible condition
yharim was kinda right
even the ones who had good intentions like silva didn't do much, she just got thrown back into the abyss when she tried
Yharim ignores the nuance, what if a dragon deserved it (flame) what if the gods were good what if the dragon consented or a good person ascended just to keep the dragon soul away from bad people who were gonna get it if they didnt
Btw in the lore do we perma kill yharon? Or nah....
I'm suprise they made the dragon look super fluffy ngl
In terms of like progression what do we have left after the exo mechs?
Yharon resprite btw
we do, his soul fragments into a lot of pieces for us to collect
Yharim
Noxus
Xeroc
Your morally gay
What the fuck?? He looks so much different from when I played last
cuz yharon did genocides and we also did genocides
so we dont get to know whos right or wrong
He looked like a chicken nugget with wings
Its not in the game yet but its what they making yharon look like soon™
i remember... youre
we feed the soul fragments to a suitable vessel to reincarnate him i think
That sprite is like twice or triple the age of the current iteration of the lore lol
I remember your grammatical errors
As he has since.... Uh... They added him.
No
99.9% of yharons soul just teleports to the aerie
The last time I played Calamity was 2020 probably 2019
We get 0.1% of the soul
Barely anything to yharon
Pre-Apocalypse Era, I see.
yharon's soul is already unstable from it being split between him and yharim, so when we kill him, it breaks apart
Apocalypse era?
this is why yharon's song is so tragic
Pre 22
Actually that was a plague joke.
I've been in the destiny dungeons for 7 years
waiter waiter more AAA game priced dlcs please!
I used to play destiny 2
got it all the way back in the very beginning
when the game itself still cost money
Ancient times
you did NOT get any compensation for buying the game when they made it free btw
chud ass game
Not even a hat!?
Is there a dedicated place where lore is kept? I've been reading the stuff here, and a lot of what's being said isn't mentioned in game, so I'm just wondering where it is from so I can properly educate myself.
In the pins
Theres a doc that has dev statements as well, but with the horrors of my motivation being as consistent as old lore was i havent added sources to it in a while
I'm an obtuse person, so what does the "pins" mean?
Nvm, I found it. Yikes I'm bad at navigation
do you tink that yahrim regret genocide?
I believe not, yharim sounds like he'd be like Zod
Although it seems currently yhrim is suffering from a somewhat depression
No
He regrets making a child do them or hurting his allies
Not the actual genocides itself
If he got sent back in time he would do them again
I know this isn't technically calamity i just wanted to be sure
no
not on its own! though there are some mods that add custom lore items to try and bridge the gap
Oh nice. Why did they made a comment on how desert scourge is an aquatic creature though?
Now that i think about it i feel bad for killing the scourge
Little dude just wanted to survive
there's dialogue compatibility with the starfarers! though the mod's other contents aren't made with Calamity lore integration in mind!
Yharim... I remember you're genocides....
Canonically the vast majority of boss fights are self defense. Desert Scourge included.
I believe it was originally aquatic but adapted to life in the desert
I mean aquatic as in a descriptor, not the same species
It was an aquatic creature, is what I meant
Life, uh, finds a way.
That’s why I’m hoping we get to fight him in Calamity someday.
We will, but it's one of the last things they're gonna add in development
In universe, is “x of Cthulhu” referring to an actual being? Or is it just a title given to really strong fleshy guys
I think the Terraria lore goes into the whole cthulhu thing a whole lot more
Yeah but terraria lore is non-canon here right
They peeled skeleton out of cthulhu or something
Correct
The Cthulhu title is merely cosmetic in Calamity
That makes sense
Monsters such as the eye and brain are born from the bloodshed of Yharim’s crusade
Oh that’s pretty cool
xerox or zeus
Zeus think he on the team
The most notable thing that guy did in actual mythology was fuck up some giants
And then he was a bum forever
Also he’s not in cal lol
That is also true
neither zeus nor cthulhu are characters in calamity lore
Cthulhu also isn’t in Greek myth
what.
I didn’t know the mod rewrote existing bestiary entries
it
doesn't
again
those guys don't exist
you have been severely misinformed
or you're just trolling
xeroc doesn't even have a brother at all
cthuhuh 😭
not in the game yet
it was gonna be in today's update but it got pulled a month or two ago
so like they did pull the vanilla bestiary entries they were making we didnt hallucinate that fact
haguri said they did
and then her and cei argued about it
we do not know the outcome
lets not dwell on that
i am merely stating what happened
As foreseen
As foretold
Indeed I'll sir
Terrarians really are just douchebags.
This worm is my fav now. Banger music and forgettable fight.
No???
I mean that the Terrarian is defending themselves.
is there a canon reason for the player respawning or is it more for gameplay purposes? Me and my friends have been arguing about this for so long I swear
gameplay
But the reason for killing Anahita and Leviathan? I mean I don't know why we gotta kill them like damn
Anahitas lore is despaired enough
You're defending yourself. Again.
Wait is the terrarian literally just getting jumped constantly, LMAO funny headcannon that the terrarian is just clueless and kept getting jumped to the point he gets powerful everytime he gets jump leading to the point he gets to square up with gods still not understandig why they hate him XD
anahita wants to flood the entire world and lures you into the ocean to kill you
yeah that checks out
They probably stumble every time they go to somewhere
And the boom big boss comes there
despair or not, she's still an elemental meaning she still wants world domination (unless im reading the lore wrong, wouldnt be the first time)
Hmmm fair enough 
like i said, could also be reading the lore wrong
but thats what i interpreted it as
Elementals are confusing.
Whys that?
Happens when you pull up on the wrong block. Imagine this your just a normal everyday dude who gets in the wrong street. You defeated the thugs and sleightly stronger gangs heard about you, they jumped you as you win again. And to the point you are dealing with the mafia without any clue why everyones out to get you XD
Silva was a Nature Elemental prior to becoming a Goddess and according to Cei (head lore writer) she is confirmed to be benevolent and caring.
Lol
and that's confusing because?
It contradicts the lore (in the Beastiary which is the only unbiased source we have) of Elementals wanting to expand their domain no matter what.
So she's like mother nature in a way...huh?
Yah
Silva wants to spread her domain
...It's already everywhere

Ah.
benevolence and empathy? she better not find my collection of npc prisons then
I may be stupid.
Bad thing?
Her domain is Nature
yea silva can still attain that goal without literally killing people
Ok good thing
Yeah but is that really terrible?
I mean there's the jungle
did the corruption/crimson happen before or after silva "died"
Wait yeah it kinda is... if her domain is nature she probobly have those hardmode turtle pricks under her command
And Frick ass Hornets
and moss hornets... yharim, slay this false deity, thank you
Jungle bats
you mean when yharim did it? before
yharim caused the corruption and crimson? i thought that was an old lore thing
Nvm all that i think terrarian is a better god. (Depends on the player)
Especially them
i sometimes cant keep track of what's in what continuity
Jungle in general is just.... hell. I swear literal hell is easier than that place
i was saying when silva had "died" because yharim wasnt the first person who tried to kill silva
who tried to kill her before?
we dont know
M E
we just know she was in the abyss one other time before
Absolutely,at least the cragstone biome is somehow doable
seems weird to add that into the lore only to have it seemingly go nowhere
The game is still progressing
we know it happened around two thousand years ago
"seemingly"
Ngl im sad they scrapped the colossal eater of gods sprite concept
Bruh
They did?
Man
it was just the current design
I saw it on reddit idk though
but bigger
wait how long ago was xeroc absorbing zeratros's soul
800
it was a pain in the ass to work on and nobody really... had any plans for it
850 years exactly
Yeah but i think it'll be the same size maybe i just saw it in reddit
it was made before a boss fight was conceptualized around it
ah, so someone attempted to kill silva before she ascended
nothing was really lost and also it wouldve been annoying as hell to make a rework for
because it was so big
it wasnt done, not animated, the person who made it left, and didnt do anything unique and none of the current team like it
Would have been an awsome bossfight where in the first half our camera gets stuck in one place and kinda like undertale we avode massive attacks from DOG. Then for the second half we get eaten and have to fight him from the inside
I still would want him to be yk... L A R G E
yeah but you have to translate that into a terraria mod
this stuff's difficult
Fair enough
Like that god of war game,Kratos Vs That one titan
Real LOL but ig it's beyond modding
Kronos
Since it messes with the camera and uhh place
True
Definitely not out of forgetfulness
would draedon experiment with slime and made a mech about it

shouldve experimented with slimes instead of bees
Slimes are flammable, in the the way you make torches and the look of the new slime whip.But it would be so freaking cool if it's a mech boss that's combust itself like a second form❤️🩹

hi stip
Hi
She still an elemental and well even if she did spread her domain thats like
More life
More nature
Oh no the grass density went up by 30%
While anahita is kyoger
Ive always been curious about the lore of both terraira vanilla and calamity
Good thing we are willing to explain cal lore and that theres a doc in the pins as well if that fits your fancy
Vanilla lore has much less focus put on it then cal lore sadly
There are youtube videos but they are not the best
Even the best of ones i know of fall for yharims propaganda skewing the info they present
When yharim is uh
Compared to hitler regularly
Here
days since lore discussion has compared yharim to that guy
Look, we gotta meet the quota somehow.
So idk if im just dumb but its kinda confusing
Theres alot of different dragons and people fusing eith said dragons and then those people fuse with other people and.
Its alot
?
After ascending they don't ascend further.
Auric dragons exist and people can do the ascension ritual to consume the dragons auric soul and become a god, theres no deeper tier to it
Ravager is a outlier and that was not in the same vein as god ascensions but instead a different thing (people sacrificing themselves for necromancy)
Maybe I just need to read it again to fully understand lol
helpful chart of dragons and gods
Why is there a cut in the middle it doesnt indicate which side is alive or not
??
Not the one between dragons and gods the other one
oh
Wait so eventually alot of those spots could become bosses in future updates
idk
no
most of them are dead
Oh
Xeroc could but everyone else is either dead or already a boss
and calamity's not adding more new bosses until yharim
And calamity doesnt want to add more bloat to the already big boss pool
Fair
Is he a boss currently?
xeroc and noxus may come after if the devs still have the energy to do them
That will be a sad day.
Silly question.
We know that most Gods ascended imperfectly.
Like how instead of having the domain of flame, Providence had the domain of ash.
THEORETICALLY.
If someone was to ascend with Yharon's soul.
What would be their domain?
would depend on the person
the accepted theory for yharim's potential domain would be god of eternity
God of eternity would be a possibility yeah
call me an idiot but i thought ravager was an attempt to revive agnus
you are correct
it is
ahh
Ur not an idiot thats the case
it should probably be clearer in the chart but idk how
Probably via necromancy fucking up the soul is my guess and that just happens when domain soul is affected
Put agnus on the left clearly
ur a patron u should know the reason
make another column just for ravager

Ravager is clearly a trade evolution.
LMAO
if rav had his own column you could call it a...
ravager pillar
no
Yes.
and the player consumed a fruit made of yharon’s soul… 
That's not how as ascension works... Probably.
Inedible. Known to cause mass hysteria, followed by leg spasms and internal thunderings.

THE HOURS BEFORE CALAMITY UPDATE
The time has come.
Ok after rereading everything a few times. I know understand it
why can desert scourge and aquatic scourge fly?
gameplay
Desert scourge cant even fly
But yeah fabsolian gameplay
Hello, #lore-discussion! The Brainstorm update, along with a whole host of other changes, includes lots and lots of new lore. This includes tweaks for existing lore items, tooltips for new and existing items, tweaked bestiary entries, and 95 rewritten vanilla bestiary entries. If you'd not like to hunt for all this new lore yourself, the Lore Reference Document has been updated!
-# Note: Not all vanilla bestiary entries are in the document. If you want to see why, look at the bestiary entry for Retinazer: "A pair of mechanical eyes built by Draedon for reconnaissance and assassination, Retinazer focuses its energy into firing powerful lasers." Lots of them are nothingburgers like this just made to remove contradictory information from the vanilla bestiary.
In addition, to better serve the lore community as a collated source for official text, the Calamity Lore Document has been remade into the Calamity Lore Reference Document! This document is intended to serve as a complementary sister document to the Introductory Cal Master Doc, which functions as an organized reference for canon in-game lore. As such, the document has been re-formatted to match the style of the Introductory Cal Master Doc, and all extraneous theorizing, summaries, word definitions, and in-jokes have been removed.

octolinggrimm
Oh they did get bestiary rewrite into the update
yeah
Yeah im playing it later then
@raven brook could this get pinned to replace the old lore doc pin 🙏
it sounded too good to be true
It was going to
considering the whole thing last month 😭
GRRR ITS STILL IN THE CHANGELOGS ON THE WIKI..
Hmm, fuck
Lemme correct that
Is it?
oh good
can confirm
😭
MOON LORD BESTIARY IS REAL
JUST MADE A SIFFRIN TERRARIAN FOR TMOD LMAO
Well the major stuff shouldn't really change so
Yeah
It's more the minor entries without much significance that might be completely rewritten
The entire document has been remade!?
And it's now in orange!?
So like
Just bear in mind that some stuff might be completely changed in the future
But the actually important shit almost definitely isn't
👍
THERES SO MUCH STUFF I CAN FINALLY TALK ABOUT
well tbh prismatic lacewing bestiary has completely entranced me
you cant keep getting me invested in minor side characters....
😭
See
A big reason as to why we delayed the Bestiary was
Because I wanted to rewrite Empress' Item alongside it

I didn't find enough time for that so
But it's fine
the bestiary...
yeah i didnt notice any contradiction when i was reading through everything soo
its finee
also more guardians lore???? 🔥
putting eol up next to martians on my wall of minor side characters im obsessed with but will probably never get anything more
I will be real
I completely forgot those existed

But I'm glad they're there
LOL
I'm proud of those
😭
Moonlord stocks rising
what years of fish mines does to an update
is this peak writing??? 🔥🖊️
THAT
THAT IS SOMETHING I'M REALLY FUCKING PROUD OF
I think my favorite lore tooltip I wrote for Brainstorm is Blossom Flux though
I love Blossom Flux
more silva and vernal pass lore 🥹
im imagining you had to repeatedly delete "pristine fury" to physically fight off the urge to do a silly name drop
its SO peak
also this is different what do you MEAN he ||went there???? it used to be smth along the lines of "i looked at the portal and oh my god i need to get away from this"||
What
That new calamity main menu screen has so much fucking aura
that entry was not changed
yeah
yeah
new storm weaver whisper ⭐
also one of the two first canon mentions of chrysadia 
i remember when that name was still a secret...
Oh elysian aegis & bloody worm scarf got resprited cool
wait asgards valor my b
i just loaded up my current master death playthrough to check it out
cynosure is unchanged
I don't think it was
& these new difficulty setting sprites aee incredible wow
Also brb
(all the lore changes are in the doc changelogs btw
& its really funny to watch vanillin continuously gaslight themselves into thinking things have changed
:3
i havent reread the lore whispers in like a year okay?? 😭
theres no hating its just a little bit comedic ❤️
😭🔥❓
Now its time for ME to gaslight
i love her so much shes so goober
so did signus's get a little update to explicitly mention statis's escape or has that been there for a while
Omfg
i didnt know he knew how to pretend to be kind
these new visual effects on the lore items for Calamitas & such are very cool though
WAIT THE EXHUMED ITEMS ALSO MADE IT IN?
yharim DESPERATELY offering dog greater and greater bribes in exchange for him not calling cal a slur frame 1

YEAH
BRO I FORGOT EVERYTHING
LMAO
I like how it flitters & almost glitches between her yellow & orange & a striking blue
me when i have amnesia
but it seems the insult fell flat
This feels like a silly jab at the fact that one image exists
secret stones? demon king?
oh fuck off
they should add four dungeons to calamity that each give you the exact same lore at the end
and you have to complete all of them to fight yharim
yesss
now when does calamitas turn into a worm boss and fight yharim who is now also a worm boss
calamitas combines all of her necromantic constructs into a super sepulcherghasterofgods that has the domain of torch luck
sepulcher gaster???????????????????????????? 
clam den mention pre sso 🔥
ok so fun fact about the exhumed item stuff
apaprently iw rote initial drafts for them but forgor
and then they got worked on and after that never passed by me again
which i mean
there's nothing here that's wrong
and it's all good for calamitas
it's just funny
I NEVER knew they were finished until I heard they were in the update

I thought theyw ere still WIP
ok well at least there's SOMETHING lore related in the update
😭 why did no one know anything about this update
even if it's only a tiny fraction of what was planned
The Vanilla Bestiary snuck in
You said you removed it
And also a few meaningful item tooltips

Girl
dumb fucks
ALL IS WELL THAT ENDS WELL
Fuck it sure why not
WE GET LORE WOOO
THE LORELINGS HAVE BEEN FED UNBKNOWEST TO US
i ❤️ poor communication & team cohesion
No it's not that
lore leak & its NOT his fault?
Like, we forgot a bunch of the stuff written here because it was done over a year ago
incredible stuff really
And we were like
"Yeah this is for SSO we'll revise when we're done"
Then we didn't get done
thank you im rpoud of that one
i KNWO i wrote this

i spent like
So a bunch of stuff got in and we didn't revise for release because we just
Forgot they even existed

The Bestiary was an oopsie on some internal programming stuff though
I remember all of this stuff it's just that nobody bothered to tell me
Ozz said it was probably because versions kept being merged and shit and the Vanilla Bestiary removal ended up sneaking through in one of those
Ok so basically we MIGHT have to do some quick hotfix reivsion with a few of these things but
whatever
If you guys cna handle it on your own I will jsut keep going with Calamitas stuff since I've been on a roll with that stuff lately
ngl it feels so good to have the lore doc revamp out as well
finally its presentable
I might call you for some help but it will be minor
It's been a long time since I've felt motivated enough to write multiple paragraphs a day so
I want to keep up the pace
I want to get it all done this weekend since it's my final vacation weekend
whats the lore behind cyrogen?
big cube
made by calamitas
to seal her adoptive dad in
thats what i enjoy writing abotu her, while her serious stuff is serious, she also has a lot more leeway than anybody else to be a goober
What about Permafrost?
Wanna hear my theory about How inanis came into being ?
Prison.
WHO❓ ❓ ❓
We don't know.
Permafrost doesn't swear so it's not quite as fun
And frankly, we don't want to.
Inanis race of gods
I see...
what are you talking about
permfrost can't call yharim a shitlord calamitas can
we know how Gods started existing & whatever an 'inanis' is wasnt involved
Gods are people who did the ascension ritual on auric dragon souls
fandom wiki
there are 0 gods in this image
the inanis are the children of calamitas and devourer of gods remember
a race of elder gods
That has been messed and vandalised a trillion times
yeah none of those things are gods
Stop please.
I see...
though wait what about bandit
this information has been fact checked by real ilmeran patriots
✅ TRUE
https://calamitymod.wiki.gg heres the official wiki
no fair enough i guess Bandit has alot less dialogue
bandit cna swear but not as much
only minor ones
thought that was the secret boss of king of cards for a second
that is not real
that isnt even old lore
thats just some shit someone made up
yeah old lore sucked this is peak
SHOVEL KNIGHT MENTION
also hello octo
Anyways yeah
the octer
helo :3
Gods are Gods & they exist because thats what happens when someone eats an Auric Soul
What do you guys think is your favorite addition?
WOOOOOOO
my favorite addition is stohne
The lore
I dont know because I don't really know what's in the update yet
Why player cant eat auric soul? And become god?
what auric souls
I'm asking your favorite addition about THE LORE Melon Gun
because there are no auric souls to eat
No more auric dragons other then yharon who is piss shitingly hard to get the full soul of
in terms of lore
prismatic lacewing entry is an option like i said, but so is new rav lore item and of course distortion ml finally being real
because when we kill yharon his soul shatters into fragments and he dies forever
Good luck finding one.
& became god souls
Lies
stop gaslighting the newhead
OH YO
No longer may I accidentally leak that shit
yeah 😭
RIGHT YEAH ILL FINALLY BE ABLE TO TALK AND THEORISE WITHOUT KNOWING THE ANSWER
Dont think it was even a common theory the guy was distortion
ts why I dont visit lore discussion very much I barely know whats real and what isn't
MOON LORD IS FROM WYOMING!?
Youre in sscls…
the only thing I can be confident is is spreading false information
I think every Lore Discussion regular knew that but it's funny that it's only public now
Thats probably because almost all are in sscls tbf
because if I start saying stuff I think is true I will 100% accidentally leak
yeah & i remain exclusive in teto territory
And because we accidentally said that like
nobody like
tells me things
Oh
nobody says specifically 'oh hey GGG check out this lore drop'
"we" don't implicatly include me in this bitchass
:/
Well uh oops thought i did
I have 5 people in my head
implicatly
💔
I remember back in the good old days when melongun kept telling me moonlord isnt from distortion
stupid chud
calamity brain(storm)rot
finally. we know what that tongue do
Oh yeah
When was this cause i onew for like fucking ages atp
The cosmic behemoth that brought Terraria to its knees 800 years ago, freed from its lunar prison in a weakened state. It had the power to siphon and dominate souls, including those possessed by dragons, permanently wounding them. It hails from an incomprehensible fissure of broken spacetime which leeches energy from our dimension to sustain itself.
yeah
there was a lot of things i didnt include because i spent genuinely like 6 hours on this and i didnt want to include things that gave 0 information
Fair
The power to siphon and dominate souls
this was also a pretty common theory afaik
And then, of course
Every Pillar is a specific Auric Soul he claimed from another Dragon
or at least not something I was surprised by I'm pretty sure rp fovos had that power for ages
I wonder if the Moon Lord is adjacent to a proto-Devourer then
I mena yeah why would Zeratros dying matter otherwise
so
Werent even a theory that ml could fuck with auric souls its confirmed
made sense to think that
I also think the pillars being specific domains was something well known
By this yeah
Something more deadly but less intelligent, cruel but not cunning, & so on
bot...
oh my god GET OUT
Them related to domains werent
All we knew was solar was PL and vortex is sorta storm related with traits unrelated to storms as well
live vaporization
Life, Storm, Mind and Light
Stardust, Vortex, Nebula and Light
mind dragon has been revealed...
the one i was probably just about to joke about?
Insert Mind dragon deez nuts joke here

i didnt even consider this but that means souls taken by fovos were salvageable
melon gun exposed
oh nvm
Yeah, he doesn't take them completely
i was gonna say "gee funny that people figured out how to fuck with auric souls right after this"
Oh yeah i didnt know back then i was like not even a month into being active 😭
ah
icic
Wait how did he claim Life & Storms if Silva & Ontonilou exist?
people definitely had vortex clocked as a vetrasyl pillar
Also dai why you picking up melonquote like i do dev statement
Exactly
reb just explained
yeah but light was explicitly stated to be only a fraction
the enemies DO literally have "storm" in their name and a storm going on in the background tbf
because instead of using it to prove I'm right, I was proving that you're WRONG
not at all a lepa in logic
Now, he can claim an entire soul and that would just straight up kill the dragon
And obviously no one would be able to ascend with it
But for Life, Storm and Light he didn't claim all of it, just a part
people also had solar clocked as a primlight thing
as for the other two, there wasn't much to go on
yeah which also isnt a logic leap given the debuff from it is called
This was dev confirmed
"Daybroken"
given how many dragons died in the conflict im suprised these specific souls are what he chooses to wield in form of the pillars
mind dragon was not revealed
yeah i was about to say
life dragon i guess
was that not already confirmed
the other pillars were destroyed, i assume
Are even the fragments of these just that much greater than whatever else he would have claimed?
All I know is that the sight of Fovos wielding Primordial Light must've been the single most terrifying thing to see in the history of Terraria
Made from a fragment of the primordial light auric soul and injured zeratros, so
"Our king has set out to slay the beast! We await his return with bated breath."
What a Dreadful figure
"..."
quite the fitting name
"Why is he using his power?"
im imagining gwyn with the lightning
'Yeah, I can take him.'
'I CAN'T TAKE HIM!!!'
golem bestiary says the lihzahrds drove their goddess away
hmmm i wonder who that is
Ml yoinking zeratros like one youtuber i keep on seeing walking around yoinking venemous snakes in the wild with like shorts on


Gollete?
GOLLETE
i mean its silva isn't that known
the lizards gave her the life egg I thought
Fishinggarrete is who im thinking
i imagine him just grasping toward them & ripping out their liver or some shit & eating it while the dragon in question hits the yamcha
probably think more siphoning them with his xenomorph tongue like a fucked up gas pump
its the thing that does lifesteal to the terrarian after all
I love to imagine how Zeratros vs Fovos went because it's like
Such a unique fight to picture
Fovos upscale
Zeratros when moonlord has anti sun aura
horrifying imagery comes to mind
Alright that’s all from me see you next update
Roleplayrot
also i wonder if the vortex creatures adapted to the current world or if they just
had assault rifles a millennium ago
xeroc upscale
One thing I love to imagine is
Xeroc upscale
Zeratros coiling around Moon Lord and using its hindclaws to immobilize the arms
And then firing a giant fuck you beam of light right into its face
Honestly I like to think that's where Moon Lord got its head injury from
Now that we’re on about moon lord, Laura it’s time to settle the debate
Is prime moon lord leggy or tentaclly
something and rajang
its literally canon in the game
i think
vanilla has answered this question
Zeratros fired a point blank shot directly onto its face, and Moon Lord, to avoid getting its face blown off, ducks a little bit and instead gets its entire scalp removed
yeah there's tentacles for moon lord legs
i kind of cant because i dont really know what zeratros is supposed to look like because i think the last concept art i saw was outdated
Like Yharon but green.
Source: Dude, trust me.
Zeratros has never had official concept art
ml had incredible hair before this encounter
Ok fandom wiki
Alright Laura we see the one piece reference
calamity expansion from 2019
Zeratros and ml having the dbz beam clash
That's gonna leave a mark.
chud discussion
destiny deoxys went hard
If the average auric dragon really was around Plantera, or hell even Deus level, Zeratros vs Moon Lord really was a dbz fight
Goku fights the big bad while everyone else watches and is too weak to help
True 😭
dai that's not public
Except goku lost and then the enemy made an army of mini gokus
There were some strong ones.
And when the boss is down, they can just swarm them like Pikmin.
Fym, the solar pillar exists which uses the same power as zeratros
I meant the "Goku lost" part
why didnt Zeratros watch ML explode Yharon & go awaken as the legendary Super Saiyan
It's Goku vs Freeza, except Freeza is not fucking around
