Calamity wouldn't have happened 😭

#

There is NO xeroc, NO yharim, and NO gods

zenith geode
#

if it was working for noxus then noxus prolly was confident enough

young socket
#

seen multiple times it being explained as the noxus hivemind place so ofc ppl are obviously confused when afterwards we say signus isnt part of it n stuff

raven brook
#

yeah the distortion is just

#

an alternate realm of sorts

#

noxus is a super powerful being on it with alot of control over a hive mind of sorts but its

#

not the only thing on it

#

and i doubt it created it

young socket
#

hear me out

#

hear me out

raven brook
#

its less of a like

#

cave a bear lives in

#

and more of a forest

#

with different creatures

#

and the bear that lives in a cave happens to be the apex predator and strongest guy around

young socket
#

noxus is like the glowing mushrooms on terraria and the truffle is like dog and signus is like idk a shroomble and sw is uhhhhhh fuck idk

raven brook
#

of course

#

the mushroom analogy

#

why did i not think of this

#

a clasisc.

young socket
#

point is that the distortion is a lot more than just noxus hivemind

hoary cape
#

Imagine if Fovos was Noxus's boss and when fovos got crippled noxus took over /j

young socket
#

hes a

#

fun guy.

undone karma
#

any updated lore doc?

agile matrix
#

wait.

#

im sorry

#

hold on

#

Pillars are Moon Lord shit?????????? like poop??????????????????????

#

are all of the pillar enemies existing around literally eldritch fecal matter

#

cmere rq apologies for ping

#

check my work

raven brook
#

I mean the shape is close enough

agile matrix
#

this is hellish knowledge

raven brook
#

looks poop shaped enough

agile matrix
#

all the pillar enemies, any aura they coulda had

#

vaporized

#

they huddle around a gigantic [flaming/lightning based/mind eradicating/starry] poop

real silo
#

Fovos is secretly beelzebub, lord of flies

#

Because his followers gather around shit

#

Just like flies

hollow pivot
#

Does anyone know the naming scheme for gods in Calamity?

raven brook
#

There isn't really one

#

Different gods all have different backgrounds and come from different cultures after all

hollow pivot
#

Do dragons have a naming scheme?

limpid saddle
#

as far as im aware not really

raven brook
#

You'd probably have to ask stip since he's the guy behind alot of the dragon lore

#

but

#

There is a language auric dragons spoke, that is draconic

#

Now actually writing a full language and jbasing the names of that is uhhh. no

#

But it's fair to atleast generally assume

#

That the auric dragons all have names that sorta "sound" like they're all part of a language

#

So for those i suppose the best i can say is,

#

Just look at the examples we have and try to write smth that sounds similar based on vibes, ig 😭

#

We know like, what?

#

Zeratros, Yharon, Vetrasyl

Wit the possible names of Zaelithar and Raelvanna

#

the e in zaelithar has one of those lines above it

#

but i dont know how to do that in my key board

hollow pivot
#

So start with a letter from the latter half of the alphabet.

raven brook
#

That does seem like a trend actually 🤔 Though unsure if it's intentional, byeah, that might help make it fit in better regardless

agile matrix
#

Erithalis could also be a draconic name (but patterns help)

hollow pivot
#

Funny how the 2 strongest dragons starts with the last 2 letters of the alphabet.

raven brook
#

Yeah lol

agile matrix
#

lotta vowels actually

raven brook
#

would be extra funny if the third strongest ragon's name s tarted with X

hollow pivot
#

Xylophoneron 🧠

agile matrix
#

zErAtrOs, yhArOn, vEtrAsyl

#

lotta vowels per consonant

raven brook
#

Tru

hollow pivot
#

They all sound like a mix of norse and greek as well.

#

So that's like, 3 things I can use in a name.

agile matrix
#

oh wait wheres uh

raven brook
#

Given that Chrysadia is a highly greece-inspired civilization, and the civilization of humans that stood the closest to the auric dragons, having lived in the surface alongside them and directly respecting and worshipping them as their guardians

agile matrix
#

dragon of greed or wahtever

raven brook
#

It makes alot of sense to have some greece inspiration yeah

agile matrix
#

the lousy idiot one who became slime god

raven brook
#

so i woudnt b surprised

#

if it was intentional

agile matrix
#

glumbus or something

raven brook
hollow pivot
agile matrix
#

yeah that

raven brook
#

Ok look

#

I love gaslighting people man, i do

agile matrix
#

whats its name

raven brook
#

But it feels mean to gaslight someone who's genuinely trying to learn stuff

#

so i'm gonna say

#

gloomborf is just a name i fucking made up and it got extremely populoar

agile matrix
#

WHAT

raven brook
#

😭

agile matrix
#

theres no way this is betrayal

#

this is heresy what do you mean

#

thats such a fitting fucking name!!!

hollow pivot
agile matrix
#

it has a ton of vowels, sounds norse, and WORKS for a dragon whose soul got turned into a god of slime!!

raven brook
#

Thousands must believe Gloomborf is real.

hollow pivot
#

Is that Dragon of Death “Doomborf”?

raven brook
#

Doomborf 🔥

agile matrix
#

so what their actual fucking name gonna be like Gaongarl

hollow pivot
#

And the Dragon of Tides/Sea is “Monsoondorf”.

agile matrix
#

this is betrayal dude Gloomborf is a perfect name

raven brook
#

me and stip have a enigmatic rivalry in the sense that i convince people gloomborf is a real name and he constantly is cryptic and enigmatic about whether he has actually added gloomborf in as a real name for the dragon or not

hollow pivot
agile matrix
#

Bloomborf, Dragon of Nature

raven brook
#

it will continue until osmehow the dragon of gluttony's name is revealed ingame and thus we can stop our endless conflict

#

whgich realistically

#

might not even happen

#

so itll be an eternal war

#

of gaslighting

agile matrix
hollow pivot
#

Nah someone's going to make an addon which revives the dragons called “The Draconic Era” or something like that and it gives a name that everyone starts thinking is real and the Gloomborf cycle starts over again.

raven brook
#

The power balance is kept equal as i never know for sure if gloomborf is truly canon or not.
But stip also has to deal with Gloomborf being accepted as the basically official name due to my agenda

#

Endless war

#

neither side ever wins until dragon of gluttony gets a namedrop ingame

#

world war gloomborf

simple tangle
#

gloomborf

agile matrix
#

making a calamity addon thats so viciously Not True to calamity lore but it could be is kinda my goal

hollow pivot
#

Slime god is gonna get a new NPC during the re-balance which is a Slime god worshipper who namedrops in one piece of dialogue.

agile matrix
#

like yes ofc draedon made a robotic terrarian and ran them through trials and tribulations

raven brook
agile matrix
#

ofc you then fight an ai terrarian with post Yharim gear and Lose a Lot

raven brook
#

and a npc

#

who will get added eventually

agile matrix
#

Of Course You Do That

raven brook
#

there is a NOZNERO CHANCE

#

that would happen

hollow pivot
raven brook
#

Nah, Statis is a Onyx Kinsman, a clan of ninjas that worship the Slime God (and Signus too)

simple tangle
#

theyre both twinks so ig it mkes sense to get em mixed up

raven brook
#

Notably, hes the last surviving kinsman we know of, and seemingly their strongest

#

he and Braelor, his boyfriend and and champion of Silva, the goddess of life

#

got

hollow pivot
raven brook
#

extremely close to killing yharim

#

the only reason they didnt

#

was because devourer ambushed them and sent them to the distortion at the last minute

#

Though they're both alive, still

raven brook
#

Statis managed to escape through a bargian with Signus, and is now wandering the overworld - He'll be a quest NPC npc that can be found wandering through the world eventually

#

And while he's stukc in the Distortion, braelor is too damn fucking strong so he's still alive

#

Highly suspicious taht the giant scar in DoG's scrapped p hase 2 resprite was given to him by braelor tbh :p

hollow pivot
agile matrix
#

i find it very funny that if Braelor sleeps, he gets like ambushed by like

#

Mites.

raven brook
#

He was blessed by Silva yeah

agile matrix
#

and Small Worms

raven brook
#

But also

#

I think he was just

mighty zenith
#

honestly i headcanon that the reason yharim says that statis hesitates is because he didnt want to give DoG more credit for saving him

raven brook
#

strong as fuck naturally even then

agile matrix
#

so when he wakes up, he just regenerates really really really fast

raven brook
#

He probably was just a extremely competentr fighter with alot of physical s trenhgt

agile matrix
#

basically, im saying that the braelor update will include an update to the shiny stone

raven brook
#

plus he has a powerful set of armor and a giant fucking axe

raven brook
#

you will drink the stone

#

balance achieved

agile matrix
#

both wrong actually; all perma consumable

#

for some reason approx 202...i wanna say 9? calamity will have made a push for more perma consumables

raven brook
agile matrix
#

leading to consumable%, where its all perma consumable

raven brook
#

reverse yharim

hollow pivot
#

I have a question, how does the Terrarian go around killing Fovos whom the dragons couldn't, kills ghosts, and then proceeds to kill Elementals who shouldn't be killable? Is Terrarian built different or is that just game stuff like rebirth?

raven brook
#

both are by all means

#

just, normal humans

raven brook
#

but they're insanely fucking powerful

simple tangle
#

of its former self

raven brook
#

bu while yharim is a piece of shit genocidal maniac

#

braelor is just

#

superman

#

hes just a good guy

simple tangle
#

we dont kill the elementals

raven brook
#

that sxaves people

hollow pivot
simple tangle
#

canonically they just reform iirc?

#

theyre bound to their domain

#

so as long as that exists

#

anahita after i drain the world

hollow pivot
raven brook
#
  1. The fovos we fight is a weakened husk, if we fought prime fovos we'd probably be fucked
  2. Killing ghosts isn't really special imo - Npcs can do it too with their attacks. I think it's just a matter of worldbuilding
  3. The elementals don't truly "die", we just destroy their current physical forms. They'll reform eventually
#

Probably yeah

simple tangle
#

prime fovos was like

#

probably the strongest thing

raven brook
#

Prime Fovos was insanely strong

#

and had killed, so many of htem

#

permanently from the looks of it

#

By the time they had weakened it to that state

#

It probably was just

simple tangle
#

and if it killed em it also ate their auric souls right

raven brook
#

the best choice to seal it away

#

and not risk anymore fighting

hollow pivot
#

Where did Fovos come from? Some say he's a spawn of Noxus, but how did Noxus make a guy that strong and why?

simple tangle
#

no

raven brook
#

He came from the distortion it seems, but

simple tangle
#

heyre just from the same place

raven brook
#

imo

#

very very likely not a spawn of noxus

hollow pivot
raven brook
#

I think ML, much like Signus

#

is a separate dsitortion entity

#

that is unaffiliated with noxus

simple tangle
#

distortion is just filled w eldritch horrors

#

lol

raven brook
#

lmao

#

fun place .

#

atleast Signus is

#

significantly more reasonable than the other 2 😭

hollow pivot
#

Distortion is like the Australia of Calamity Ig.

raven brook
#

even if he still can be. kind of a shady bastard

feral skiff
#

don’t go here, it sucks

simple tangle
#

xeroc and the player about to kill noxus when a random unaffiliated giant distortion monster shows up and eats it

raven brook
#

like at the very least he dosent go around wrecking havoc and destroying shit the worst he'll do is fuck you up a bit with a less-than-ideal bargain

simple tangle
#

this is never addressed again

hollow pivot
raven brook
#

Given that Fovos also absorbed the power of

hollow pivot
#

Fovos and the seven Auric Souls:

raven brook
#

Storm (Vetrasyl), Life (Raelvanna) and Zeratros (Primordial Light)

And we know gods ascended with their souls

#

It seems that some dragons

simple tangle
#

peak fovos was likely stronger than xeroc right

raven brook
#

managed to narrowly escape their demise and only have part of their auric soul sapped away

#

nah

#

xeroc st ill stronger

#

tho peak fovos is like

hollow pivot
raven brook
#

one of the only cahracters

#

that would actually have a chance

#

against xeroc

simple tangle
#

lowk in 10 years

#

when we get noxus

hollow pivot
#

Question, if the Terrarian manages to get Terminus prior to fighting Yharon, does that mean we can hypothetically absorb his soul?

simple tangle
#

thats gonnaa be so hype

raven brook
simple tangle
#

tag team battle with xeroc

raven brook
#

bcuz the chrysadians worshipped Vetrasyl as their guardian

#

and they were highly connected to cragons

#

and the only like

#

civilization we know of

hollow pivot
raven brook
#

ythat actually lived alongside them on the surface

#

They're just humans iirc

#

Not really a separate species

#

But lived on sky islands

simple tangle
raven brook
hollow pivot
raven brook
#

The terminus in of itself isn't how you do the ritual - Its a tool that lets you perfectly ascendwhile performing the ritual

#

you still gotta know how to do the ritual

hollow pivot
raven brook
simple tangle
#

just ask slime god

raven brook
simple tangle
#

dude prolly knows

raven brook
#

Jokes aside it's unknown rn

#

It depends alot on when silva ascended

simple tangle
#

"prolly" i mean slime god does know the ritual lol

raven brook
#

If it was after Xeroc threw the terminus in there

#

Then maybe she just

#

was there already, given she got dumpd on the abyss twice

#

If it wasn't then uhhh

#

idk maybe xeroc was like "damn girl ur mad chill here have this. imma go smoke a blunt now" :sob

pulsar ocean
#

If slime god was one of the first why would he pick the most fodder dragon

hollow pivot
#

Surprised Draedon has no logs on the Ascension Ritual, and we don't find any books in like the Dungeon.

raven brook
#

Yharim probably was monitoring draedon's ass to make sure

#

he wasn't researching the ritual

#

doing so would probably be seen as immediate betrayal even if draedon had no intent of ascending whatsoever

simple tangle
#

theres no way yharim didnt do bookburning

hollow pivot
simple tangle
#

lets be real

raven brook
#

He absolutely did

#

Obviously anything that hd the ritual on it

#

but also just

#

books that could be bad for his agenda

#

history books that talked about the positive impact of gods in societies

#

and that depicted benevolent gods in a poistive light

simple tangle
#

anything about agnus

hollow pivot
#

“The story of the evil dragon of death getting served justice for his crimes? Yeah, put that on the bonfire.”

raven brook
#

the books that talk about God of Dogma's evil ass god government or Providence's genocidal rampages? yeah those can stay

raven brook
#

agnus my glorious king

simple tangle
#

why is yharon so trash

hollow pivot
raven brook
#

We've heard stuff about him in the dsicord

#

He's genuinely one of the most selfless people in the entire lore

#

like he's literally calamity mod jesus

#

his story is so fucking tragic man

simple tangle
#

i would simply not get radicalized by The Bird

hollow pivot
raven brook
#

genuinely one of the nicest people in the story who was willing to do anything just to make his people safe and happy

#

And then he was killed, all while he willingloy let yharim kill him if it meant his followers get to live

#

and reborn as nothing but a violent husk of a monster

#

his legacy tained and in the coming years he'd be seen as nothing more than a (haha) ravaging beast

#

its soo ucked up dude its so sad

#

its minos prime coded

raven brook
#

We know death was basically like

#

stuck on a little forest

#

becasue of his literall Death Gas

#

he isolated himself

#

so his gas wouldnt just

#

kill everyone around him

#

Makes me think of him willingly giving up his soul to someone

#

who he thought could put it to better use

simple tangle
#

calamity au where his followers sacrifice themselves as to prevent him from doing it himself and we get to interact with Agnus

raven brook
#

agnus prime addon

#

much like the goozma addon, yoou do a certain thing in the ravager fight

#

and get to fight agnus prime instead

simple tangle
#

would it be as ass as summoning goozma

raven brook
#

it'd probably involve like

#

making yourself seem like yharim in some way

#

it dosen't really have to be 100% lore logical becasue i mena

#

realistically theres no way agnus could come back in any way

#

hes Dead

simple tangle
#

oh i meaan for sure

raven brook
#

Like maybe Yharon drops a new item

#

that seems useless but when used in the ravager fight

#

bam

#

agnus prime

simple tangle
#

necromancy in cal canonically just doesnt work right

#

ok it Technically Works

#

but the most anyone has seemed to get out of it is basically golems

raven brook
#

the single best known execution of it known worldwide is scal's brothers iirc

simple tangle
#

im describing calamitas' brothers as like

#

golems

#

fwiw

raven brook
#

bgecause they actually retain some of their memories, sapience

#

They willingly protect calamitas

#

and seemingly arent just murder everyone in sight instantly

simple tangle
#

ahh

raven brook
#

But can't really communicate

simple tangle
#

unlike calclone's lol

raven brook
#

or express complex thought

#

But they atleast do retain that much

#

of still recognizing calamitas as their sister and wanting to protect her rather htan just

#

KILL EVERYONE

#

and also their form is somewhat humanoid

simple tangle
#

kill everyone

raven brook
#

but thats as far as it goes

#

so like,

#

that does go to show how low the bar is for necromancy

#

ytheyre the best necromantic Thing Ever

#

and even then they're . lacking. in. Alot

simple tangle
#

are all the zombies n sshit we see products of necromancy or are the undead and necromancied undead different

raven brook
#

they are yeah

#

its just

#

so many fucking people died bc of the crusade in the heartlands and so much Necromancy Nuclear Bombs have happened hejre that its just. like that

#

in other continents its

#

not like this

#

we're just in Hell TOrture Land

simple tangle
#

lol

#

random wizard throwing a necromancy nuke inside the dungeon cuz itd be funny

#

im genuinely really curious as how to a melee attack based fight in like late post ML would look like
dashes are kindve like that but not rly yk
im guessing it'd just be lots of teleporting n predictive attacks?

#

(on the context of agnus prime)

#

been thinking abt that for Big Yharim himself, too

#

limiting arena size scal style seems liek the obvious move but

#

i do wonder

agile matrix
#

i heard talk of scals necromancy?

#

me a fan of it overall?

#

the concept of revival is like. a thing that happens

#

post humously is Odd but like right on the spot is like

#

Normalish. Medics and stuff

raven brook
#

im not sure what youre trying to say

#

you speak really confusingly sometimes 😭 (not trying to offend)

agile matrix
#

no i know thats intentional

#

if you heal a dude who got shot, you’re just cool

#

if you heal a dude who’s been dead and in a box, you’re kinda nuts

#

in both ways

#

like tmk its either you turn the dead body into something else or you take the dead soul and make what it used to be from physical material

#

so like Dryad magic vs Necromancy

pulsar ocean
agile matrix
#

most time most people who are dead are either in a box or in a ceramic curved box (pot)

wanton pendant
#

Yeah, but like, if it's in the box you can't check, so it's basically alive and dead.

pulsar ocean
#

I wonder if there’s some guy that researched this

wanton pendant
#

We won't know if he did or not until we look it up.

pulsar ocean
#

Truly

wanton pendant
#

I call this Schrödinger's Researcher, after the fact that it sounds cool.

pulsar ocean
#

I agree that sounds like a cool word

wanton pendant
#

Of course the Brit wouldn't know about other languages.

reef wigeon
split mortar
raven brook
#

yeah then maybe xeroc was like

#

"ok youre cool have this"

#

they divorced sometime after though very unfortunate

raven brook
#

silva and xeroc are like asgore and toriel

wanton pendant
#

Rude.

raven brook
#

them being divorced is vital to their characterization

#

its their canon event

#

they are divorced in every timeline

split mortar
#

True

wanton pendant
#

Theory: Embers is the timeline where they didn't divorce.

split mortar
#

Wrong

raven brook
#

If they dont divorce the world ends in an horrible way

#

understood

wanton pendant
#

Of course the Brit wants divorce.

pulsar ocean
split mortar
wanton pendant
#

Yes I would know about other languages because I'm not British.

wanton pendant
split mortar
#

When did i say i want divorce

#

I agree with kozz here

wanton pendant
#

It's all because the British invented divorce.

split mortar
#

I didnt pay attention in history this is news to me

wanton pendant
#

Henry VIII...

split mortar
#

Thought he invented a new way to divorce not divorce itself

reef wigeon
split mortar
#

🔥

reef wigeon
#

And it's a more central part of the plot for Cor Ex

pulsar ocean
#

They’re not divorced in calamity fell au

wanton pendant
#

That's Calamity in the Don't Dig Up Seed, right?

pulsar ocean
#

Is everything edgier there

reef wigeon
#

Because Xeroc fires Abyss

wanton pendant
#

How will Abyss get a job now!?

reef wigeon
#

But I don't want to spoil anything else

pulsar ocean
#

Just throw providence in the abyss

reef wigeon
#

(specified in the doc btw)

#

The document isn't that long

#

Is just an introduction

reef wigeon
split mortar
#

Did not get enough sleep so bit tired otherwise fine

#

How are you?

split mortar
reef wigeon
#

Why the e suggestion

split mortar
#

Im on mobile i did that on accident while scrolling

reef wigeon
#

Oh i see

reef wigeon
#

Canonically, Cor Ex lost to Xeroc in a Yu-Gi-Oh duel because he used Ash Blossom to destroy his cards

limpid saddle
reef wigeon
#

Yeah uhhh not my deck

#

Cor Ex's deck

#

Although I haven't made a deck myself

eternal veldt
#

Ok so how did the gods became gods again?

reef wigeon
#

Uhhh

#

Ascension ritual

#

In a dragon's soul they have found

eternal veldt
gritty kraken
#

yeah

eternal veldt
#

Damn if only terrarian knows how to do the damn ritual

gritty kraken
#

Should’ve asked hivemind

split mortar
eternal veldt
#

Damn it. Could haves been god rn

eternal veldt
feral skiff
#

yharim: hey why isn’t my attunement working anymore 😱😔
player: haha i consume your friend soul
yharim: NOOOOOOOOOO why would u DO THIS

eternal veldt
#

So maybe there's a way

feral skiff
#

no

#

you can’t

#

the player character would NEVER be able to know that knowledge on the ritual

#

because it has been gatekept for a long time, the only people left who know the ritual either cannot speak; are unwilling to tell the player; or they’re just dead

zenith geode
#

the terrarian can wait like 12000 years to shave all of yharon's soul away and spend it all on mock attuning auric metal

feral skiff
#

how is the terrarian even able to improvise something like that

#

how are they even able to steal soul fragments from yharon

eternal veldt
zenith geode
#

but it is canon that yharon shaves away a small bit of his soul every time he self-revives

feral skiff
#

xeroc really only communicates with the player during the boss rush and wouldn’t have a good reason to tell them the ritual, because the only dragon left is Yharon which canonically they already killed by the time they get to the boss rush

#

technically the player could speedrun the terminus earlier but that wouldn’t change much

eternal veldt
feral skiff
#

no he does the revival thing

zenith geode
#

oh yeah he fucking dies

#

but he revives in 10 years

feral skiff
#

his soul is just in the aerie and inaccessible to the player

zenith geode
#

as a little baby

eternal veldt
#

Bet. I can wait

feral skiff
#

i actually feel semi-bad for yharon because he’s nigh-immortal and rebirths forever, so he’s gonna have to live by himself without the funny man around him anymore

eternal veldt
#

Also didn't know xeroc talks to you in boss rush

feral skiff
#

that’s the only time he does that yeah

#

does allat just to give you a rock

#

isn’t that crazy?

split mortar
#

Tbf it is a aerie rock

feral skiff
#

but it’s an immortal rock which is much stronger than even auric metal and whatever draedon 25th century materials he uses

raven brook
#

I think there are

#

definitely ways to discover it out there

#

It isn't impossible

#

It's just hard

eternal veldt
#

Besides i do not think current terrarian would even be able tp match yharim without any upgrades to his gear.

raven brook
#

And you wouldn't be able to get that knowledge with the resources ingame

feral skiff
raven brook
#

I mean

#

Cmon man

feral skiff
#

wouldn’t that be nigh-impractical

raven brook
#

There's a entire world out there

#

We only explore a single continent

cloud ibex
#

the terrarian is a defector from the cultists in the dungeon who was involved with erasing knowledge of the ritual

#

ez

raven brook
#

Go find a god out there who's willing or something

raven brook
#

you just won't

#

That will never be an option ingame

eternal veldt
#

Damn

raven brook
#

For several reasons

eternal veldt
#

Sad

raven brook
#

There is no way to make a "Lore accurate" ascended terrarian

feral skiff
long scaffold
#

Who is Celestia

raven brook
#

because ascencion is something highly dependent on your own personality, ideals, etc

Your domain morphs to fit who you are as a person

#

Providence absorbed the auric soul of flame, and she got the domain of ashes, due to her desire to see the world be reduced to nothing but silent ashes

eternal veldt

Agnus absorbed the auric soul of death, and got the domain of sacrifice, due to his willingness to sacrifice himself for others

There is no way to make this work with the terrarian

raven brook

yeah respawning isnt canon

😭

#

Hmm well that sucks can't be an ascended terrarian

raven brook
#

Theoretically you can mkae a story where the terrarian ascends and it can make sense

obsidian plume
#

imagine being yharim, trying to brainwash this random person on the planet and then seeing them die to a purple slime

eternal veldt
#

Honestly i would really be happy if it made building range infinite. Makes building stuff easier

raven brook
#

It's just not something you will be able to do ingame ever

feral skiff
#

my headcanon on player notability

king slime/EOC = local legend
WOF = known throughout the region
plantera/golem = known throughout the continent
providence/DOG = known throughout the planet (yharim also starts taking you seriously)

raven brook
#

There's just literally no way to make an ascended terrarian work

#

personality quiz the game gives you when you ascend. depending on the answers your sprite changes and you get different buffs

#

😭

eternal veldt
#

True not only that the only remaining dragon has no correlation to what the terrarian is

raven brook
#

there dosent treally need to be any correlation

#

Attunement is what needs the dragon and person to have a bond, which is a diff thing

#

its what yharim and yharon have

obsidian plume
#

Would a perfect ascension with yharon work? I doubt it would ever happen in game but would it still work if it was conceptually in

eternal veldt
#

Rip wait so does that mean yharim has the strength of a dragon so he was able to kill gods while the terrarian is a random mf that gets stronger every kill?

raven brook
#

no

# wary sinew what is the current lore on moon lord btw?

giant beast from the distortion that invaded terraria 800 years ago and nearly wiped out the dragons (and then, probably, all life on the planet)
it had the power to slurp up souls with its xenomorph tongue and control them, which it used to steal auric souls and turn them into the pillars
the dragons ultimately defeated it, tearing it in half and sealing it on the moon, where it remained until you killed the dragon cultists during their ritual to reinforce the seal and released it

#

its power was also the inspiration for the ascension ritual

'This malevolence is not the work of any god. Blood moons trace their origins to the dawn of history.
It is an occurrence equally sinister and banal. Everyone is acclimated to the shambling hordes of undead.
Organized societies are not threatened in the slightest. If anything, they welcome the opportunity to train green foot soldiers.
Those with fire in their veins may strike out on their own, to revel in the slaughter.
That is how I remember the sleepless nights from my younger days… Knee deep in corpses.'

It's more like

Blood moons are a event that has been recorded to happen since really early on in recorded history, but it odsen't necessarily mean the world knows why they happen

like algal blooms can be seen recorded even in the bible but for a really long while people had no idea what they are and asumed it was evil spirits and/or the devil doing evil shit in the ocean

fucked up how the moon is jsut evil in terraria calamity mod

like there is no explanation for it its just fucking evil

necromancy gets stronger at night, thus the zombies

blood moons are caused by the moon

solar eclipses are caused by the moon

there is no explanation for why it does any of this

moon's evil

"Hey Draedon, why don't you set up some operations on the moon? Is it because of the imprisoned behemoth?"
"No. Moon's Evil."

"Moon's evil."

draedon then walks away and dosen't elaborate

honestly

i do genuinely kinda hope we never get a concrete answer on Why the moon is like that

Quick guide to Calamity Cosmology:
The game takes place on a planet called Terraria.
Terraria had something called a "World Soul" which later became the many auric souls posessed by the dragons.
The Moon is a strange magical rock in the sky. It is likely much smaller than the real life moon, possibly only a little larger than the moon lord.
The Sun is not much larger than the Moon and is much smaller than Terraria. It orbits Terraria.
Stars are tiny, at most planetoid sized, and either orbit planets or float freely in space. They are made of mana. The Astral and regular meteors were stars.

wanton pendant
#

Moon's Haunted.

#

And it's probably not that small... I'd hope.

sinful adder
#

Other planets exist but none nearby have any life. Mars is the name of a distant planet which once had life but now does not, and is where the martians come from.
