Terrarian Lore

Chapter 1: The Biomes​

In the beginning, there was Cthulhu, an indestructible, evil, tyrant, hellbent on ruling the world with his evil ways. He was known as pure evil himself, and he wanted with his true passion to disrupt the god’s balance of good and evil in the world, knocking away the Hallow, and growing the Crimson and the Corruption.

The Crimson

The Crimson is a hive mind: in each world, a bloody war, with ichor and blood spilled on the rocks of this evil biome. Many fell, surrendering to this horrid place with the pledge of sacrifices and betrayals, the hive mind-twisting the fools under its grasp, transforming them into unspeakable monsters.



The Corruption

The Corruption is a sickness, a cancer, grown by the sins of the world. All the vile actions or thoughts of humanity are collected by this evil biome itself, growing it slowly. The Corruption knows only itself and the need to consume everything in its path to reach full domination, leaving behind pain and suffering in the hearts of others.



The Hallow


The Hallow, however, is an entirely different nature: being released by the guardian of light and dark, it flees into the upper world, looking for a new guardian. While equally as dangerous as the Crimson or Corruption, it still seeks balance in the world and does not yearn for more but its equal part in the world. It is known to spark love and happiness with is peaceful surroundings.



Chapter 2: Cthulhu’s Travels

The Epic of Cthulhu

Many argue that Cthulhu was born evil, his brother too. Some say he never existed. The true story is as follows:

Cthulhu was first known simply as Alex, and his brother, (The Moon Lord) was known as Moon, for his hair was whiter than snow. One day, Alex had finished defeating a difficult monster, but a greifer stole the loot it had dropped. Alex was very angry, and two spirits sought him out: Nurkur, the spirit of the Crimson, and Deilos, the spirit of the Corruption.

They told him to seek revenge: Alex refused. They told him to steal the loot back: He once again declined to listen. The spirits still pursued Alex. The spirits gave Alex another idea: Look into the Demonic Pits and gain power beyond anything in the world, or stay weak. Alex’s fatal flaw was that he always loved the idea of power, so he agreed to the spirits.

Alex ventured long and hard, and he finally found Demosne, the pit of Corruption. He kneeled at the pit and looked inside. What he expirienced later could only be described as pure agony. Tentacles crept onto his face. Hair fell out in patches. His wife left him and began to date another. But whenever he began to reconsider his choices, Nurkur and Deilos told him to wait, and soon he would get his powers.

As Alex began searching for Cimcindrei, the pit of the Crimson, Moon was then being instructed by the Hallowed spirits, Selinge and Lios. They taught him how to block all forms of dark magic, but one day Lios came to Moon and told him about Alex listening to the evil spirits. Moon immediately left the Hallow and traveled to Cimcindrei.

As Alex was about to look into the pit, Moon confronted him. He told him that a cursed life was no life to live. He told him that he could live with him in the Hallow, clearing away his anger. Alex believed him, and they embraced. However, Nurkur and Deilos had been feeding off of Alex’s power, slowly reforming themselves as human, then god. They formed themselves to be solid, then, when Alex and Moon embraced, they pushed them both in.

As Moon and Alex fell, they began changing. All of their hair fell out, tentacles slid, and they both turned evil. They used their new powers to fly out of the pit, and they were reborn, as The Moon Lord and Cthulhu. However, they were not fully evil yet. They still had a sense of good in the world, so the first thing they did was banish they two evil spirits forever. Yet Nurkur and Deilos still lurk underground, waiting…

Plantarius (Plantera)

As Cthulhu made his way through the world, he came upon a young wizard. The wizard, Plantarius, immediately pledged his services to Cthulhu. He asked, in return, if Cthulhu could grant him better power. Cthulhu was angered that Plantarius had been so arrogant, asking for power so greedily. He reluctantly gave Plantarius his powers but incorporated a curse within.

Plantarius used his powers, oblivious to the curse. One day, he awoke and noticed his skin was green, like chlorophyll. He still used his powers. Another day, his hands turned to plants. Again, he shrugged it off. Many days later, Cthulhu visited him. He found nothing but a beautiful pink flower bulb. Plantarius’ greed had gotten the worse of him, and in the end, it had destroyed him.

Tim

Tim was the Wizard that lived within Alex’s village, but he was no good wizard. He was evil and arrogant. He did cruel and evil things, but after Alex’s change, Cthulhu sought him out. He asked Tim to make him an undead army. At first, when Tim tried, Moon (He had not accepted his full name yet) blocked his spell, and instead of a skeleton army, zombies rose. Cthulhu banished the zombies.

Cthulhu then punished Tim, so Tim tried again. This time he rose a skeleton army, but Moon blocked the spell, turning Tim into a skeleton. Tim was banished underground with his evil Rune Apprentices, cursing Moon’s Name. The skeletons still knew who created them, so they went underground, searching for him.



The Lihzhard Tribe

When Alex first started traveling to Demosne, he met a tribe of Lihzhardians or Lihzhards. They were willing to follow Alex anywhere, so Alex let them come with. When he looked into the pit, the Lihzhards decided not to look, for they were cowards. But when Alex fell into the pit, they tried to save him but looked. They turned into lizard-human hybrids and fled into the underground temple of the Golem. They chose to praise him instead.

The Goblin Army

There are many tales told of a mighty Goblin Army, ruled under Cthulhu to make mischief and grief in the hearts of others, stealing from them and letting Cthulhu destroy the then weakened city. However, there was one incredibly gifted goblin, but he had no interest in destroying cities or pillaging towns. After raids, he would stick behind and help people, returning everything he stole and apologizing profusely. The other goblins wore tired of him, so they bound him and threw him underground.

The Dryads

As Cthulhu made his way across the many worlds of Terraria, he encountered a race of Dryads. Cthulhu offered they join him, as they had stopped by their village many times, and they were very helpful. Yet they did not accept. They chose to fight him instead. The Dryads did not kill Cthulhu, but they crippled him, tearing out his eyes, ripping out chunks of his brain, and pulling out his spine. He ceded, but his brother Moon took him to the dark side of the moon to heal. He stays there to this day…

Yet the Dryads had a bigger loss. The entire race, once 100 strong, had all fallen but one. The sole survivor left the wreckage and has never been seen for years. She demands a true show of bravery against evil to assist whoever could be so brave in the everlasting fight against the Crimson and Corruption and their spiritual owners, still alive and thirsty for more fear and anger.

The Clothier and The Mechanic

Alas, this dreary tale of two lovers can break the hearts of even the strongest warriors. When Cthulhu healed on the dark side of the moon, Moon took over with his affairs. He found a village with an ingenious Mechanic known just as The Mechanic and set her to work down in an abandoned dungeon. Moon sent Skeletron (Cthulhu’s Spine) to monitor her, but he could not guard the entrance by day.

Moon found a Clothier that lived with the Mechanic, as they had just married. Moon, not knowing this, inflicted old age on the Clothier, and set him in front of the dungeon. The two lovers, once married, now cannot be together again, forced to work mere feet away from each other.

She is. First, she has no idea who the clothier might be, and also, the Clothier is WAY too nice to interrupt their happy relations.
 
well also like I said, the Clothier was inflicted with old age meaning he looks all old and unreconizable
When I made this Lore, I wasn't thinking of this. Thank You for letting me know!
