- While Terraria is like a lot of other games where it appears there is no story and lore, that actually isn't the case. To celebrate Terraria's 8th anniversary, relogic released some official lore to go along with Terraria which explains what your purpose is, the different biomes, what the bosses are, and much more which I go over in this video

Corruption: infection
Crimson: parasite
Hallow: immune response
thats a perfect way to put it
I think cancer is more fitting for corruption
Lol yeah
The most med student joke possible
Basically the terraria world is the Gaia theory
It actually directly says in the lore that the dryads banished Cthulhu to the dark side of the moon. Moon lord is canonically Cthulhu.
the moon lord is cthulu's brother. he lives on the light side of the moon.
@@femboygaming64 Where did you get the light side of the moon part from
@@thepurpleemerald8612 star wars?
@@salmanhawan I mean that piece of Terraria lore
@@thepurpleemerald8612 he messing with you lmao
One point you missed: ocram is not canon, he was the last mech boss that they were going to build. They never finished him though.
Wdym he was fully finished on consoles back then , he’s still around just not well known , they just changed him to a Early/mid game boss and not an Mech boss
@@Snopdogdad he’s not in the game anymore bro , u can’t summon him in normal play throughs ,
Who didn't finish him? Re logic, or the Lunar Cultists?
@@Snopdogdad he wasnt finished they just needed a finał boss
He wasn’t made by re logic so ocean got removed
I have a theory that the clothier might have been brainwashed into temporarily becoming a member of the lunatic cult. In one of the clothier’s dialogues, he says that he has vague memories of tying up the mechanic.
i wouldnt say brainwashed. rather enslaved via some curse
Seeing they are capable of dark arts as the leader shows in his fight, it wouldnt be surprising.
I always thought the old man in front of the dungeon was the clothier. They look very similar.
@@CreeperCub I belive thats him, beacuse after you defeat Skeletron and free the Old Man of his curse The Clothier comes in and after entering the dungeon and Getting his Vodoo Doll at night you can kill him to summon Skeletron once again. So in logical sense The Old Man is the Clothier Who Came back, Also then it would make sense why he has a dialouge where he has memories of Tying the mechanic up beacuse maybe he was enslaved and called old man so he had to do it.
Just mine opinion tho idk if im right or wrong but im pretty sure what i said was right.
Thats what I was thinking
the moon lord is such a perfect final boss to terraria, given all the hints and signs of their influence, the deadly moon events, and bosses only appearing and fighting at night, and such... I think its really clever and cool!
Oh yeah, he was banished to the dark side of the moon so that’s the only time he would have any kind of influence on the world
Impending doom approaches...

One quick thing:
The princess and the witch doctor (the latter being a lizhard himself) are working together to establish contact with the lizhards, not just living happy lives together
One of the princess quotes even mentions her wanting to make peace with the lizhards.

Some parts that you missed are:
The crimson is a hivemind and the "leader" is the brain of cthulhu who created the crimson after being separated from his body.
The eye of cthulhu is also a separated body part and it's actually looking for cthulhu.
Skeletron is cthulhu's bones that, when separated got so angry that they came to life and cursed the clothier (and dungeon).
The mechs are cthulhu's eyes, bones, and spine, the only part that he needed to become whole again was his brain (ocram) but we freed the mechanic and killed the cultist before that could happen or else we would have to fight cthulhu and not moonlord.
Plantera only appears after the mech bosses because of the radio active fallout they leave when they are destroyed.
Bros bones got mad he couldn't wear clothes and cursed the clothier
Skeletron cant be cthulu's bones, skull is a human's and the hands, I dont think those match to a giant octopus being, also hivemind and parasite are similar, both have no differences on taking control of something, the mechas are built parts therefore not being actual body parts but imitations, about plantera.... Temple's guardian is more accurate, there isnt such thing as radioactive waste coming from a machine being destroyed, prove me wrong but I have never seen a car being destroyed leaking radioactive waste, mostly when metals used are not radiation focused like the mechas'.
@@dark6335 "The disembodied bones of a former tyrant pulsed with a hatred so strong, it left behind a mighty curse which guards the Dungeon." - Bestiary
Yes, the parts are substitutions for the parts cthullu lost.
"A dormant, yet powerful floral guardian awoken by the fallout of Cthulhu's destroyed machinations. Its reach spans the entire jungle." - Bestiary
I am guessing that the twins and eye of Cthulhu are all parts of Cthulhu and thats why moon lord has three eyes because mabye after they were defeated the bosses all went back and formed Cthulhu's brother moonlord? Just a thought though
@@thefrogwhoscreams did... did you watch the video?
The sad thing with Dryad's ending is that, since you['ve purified the evil in the world by removing the evil biomes and killing moonlord, she serves no more purpose (which was defending the world from evil) and since she had no more purpose she turned into a tree to live out her last few days
I like to think she’s at peace and happy to become a tree, she may finally rest knowing all the creatures and people are safe
@@marcuspage2026 yeah fair point, but what would you do if you served no purpose in life? find a purpose that doesnt exist? or just stop trying.
@@ruli6871 no she completed her purpose and turned back into nature. I’m sure if someone were to attack the earth the dryad would come back. It’s not a sad ending in the slightest, it’s not that she has no purpose it’s that she accomplished her goals
@@BrandensMusicPageiirc in the lore the only threats to the world is moon lord, the bosses and the evil biomes which you have all defeated in a regular run so there is no incoming threat

@@HaveApickle 🤨 it could also be his intestance
@@Northstarpri yeah yeah... never thought anything else I swear
@@HaveApickle hmmmm i think ik what u originaly thought
his peepee
Terraria has references to several mythologies. However, it's mostly based off the Necronomicon by H.P. Lovecraft, which was based off Philippine/Indonesian Mythology, where Cthulhu and Kthanid(MoonLord) were twin brother gods of the moon and ocean
The goblin army comes from India (north of Philippines/Indonesia). But north doesn't exist in terraria 😂
The Dryad already killed the ocean god Cthulhu. but Kthanid, god of the moon, wants vengeance.
Your destiny is to deify yourself to gain power and kill all R'lyehns once and for all
You are completely wrong. The owner of Terraria confirmed that Moonlord was Cthulhu. Also the Pillars are his seal, which explains why they appear after you murder him. And if you pay attention he shatters the item you use to summon Moonlord. What backs this up is that you can't summon Moonlord if the Pillars invaded your world. Also if you read the lore, it directly says Cthulhu was banished to the dark side of the moon. And even more in the lore is that the 3 Mechanical bosses were created by the captured engineer and were replacements to Cthulhu's torn off body part, you stopped them before his body was fully fixed though.
Nothing I haven't heard already. You should read more external sources to know where it came from
I personally like to think of the guide as a past warrior who failed to stop moonlord in the past. So now he has you as an apprentice. Him opening doors is his way of training who so you wouldn't avoid enemies.
lol no he cant even defeat a zombie. its more like an autistic kid from the neighborhood that knows much but cant do anything
Creator of gaem said he bad. 😂
Same
i remember getting mad at the guide because he kept opening the door on the small box house thing i built on my first night
Those ending made me so sad! I’ve been playing this game for so long, and to see these people finally get to live out their lives without fear and get their happily ever afters is so bitter sweet to me.

Finally, Terraria lore:
At long last
Imagine if Matpat saw this 💀
@@layoutdude9256 Nothing wrong with that, people have free speech unless it is used to attack people maliciously.
At one point I thought I heard that the Moon Lord was Cthulhu’s brother that came with the lunar pillars from the moon to take revenge after you stop the Cthulhu summoning ritual by killing the Lunatic Cultist. Guess I was wrong?
That was one of the things where the lore, and relogic's past messages contradicted each other, so I decided to go with the official lore for that.
@@TerrariaSlime hi i really LIKED THE VID HOPE YOU KEEP MAKING GREAT VIDS!
@@BlueAmaia *they screamed into his face*
@@zero.Identity i accidentally pressed caplock after really
@@BlueAmaia i was just joking, chill
if not killing the cultist does not summon the moonlord, then why is it said that terrarians must kill the cultist to prevent moonlord from coming to terraria?
I think that part is just a game progression thing and not cannon
In his last moment he could sacrifice his life to complete the ritual? That's a cliche but viable theory, since we don't technically get a boss bag from defeating him.
@@sylphario4468 or maybe the celestial pillars stop moonlord from coming, but to get them u need to kill the cultists. but what do u do?
u destroy the pillars..
The cultist would restore the moonlord to its fullest power but you killing them stops them from doing that. Thats my canon
I wanna say the situation is like the cultists are trying to revive the moon lord, and we try to stop it from happening. But we fail to stop the ritual because it was so close to being completed, and the leader knows it. And since he can't use us as a sacrifice, since we're strong, he uses himself as the final piece. The pillars seem to be fragments or conduits of moonlords power, and when we disrupt them, moonlords annoyed and comes to fight us directly. Since everything else he'd have had been taken down. It's how I'd fully imagine things going .
You could actually see cthulhu's bones , skull , rib cage in crimson biome background
@No read your name
Why are people debating if moon lord is cuthulu or not…one of the things he literally attacks you with is called “true eye of cuthulu” 💀
@@yoitsmecrobux The Moon Lord - literally a regenerated (and weakened) C'thulhu. That the Eye (and all the other organs) that exists in the world of Terraria is probably just a remnant of his previous body, which was lucky enough to live long enough. This is not a direct lore quote, but I'm going there
Seeing the skeleton merchant's smile bubble over his head was honestly kinda cute
Like he seems so excited about finding something to sell
@No shut up
Shame its a slaphand 😂
Do yall think that corruption is chilly, whereas crimson is warm?
Hadn't thought of it before but I reckon this makes sense.
yepp
Corruption is cool and chilly with its sorrow and infectious nature, perhaps alluding to the cool touch felt when one comes into contact with a corpse or a dead organism. The Crimson might be warm, alluding to the warm feel of blood and flesh, living and thriving in an organisms body. Yeah, it works.
it prolly makes sense with crimson having the color crimson, a warm color, and corruption having the color purple, a cool color
I think the crimson is warm because of the body tempature but not very sure of the corruption
Moon Lord is Cthulhu's brother, Kthanid. I just read some of the HP Lovecraft Wiki, & yeah Cthulhu is some kind of lord/god of the ocean, while Kthanid is lord/ god if the moon. But they look similar, Cthulhu being a greenish color and Kthanid being a grayish color.
Nah this was retconned to make cthulu and the moon lord the same
HP love craft’s cat has an interesting name
@@user-wy5rs2zj6uyeah but it still doesnt make sense since the moonlord inspiration is obviously not Cthulhu
I thought that Daedalus made the mech bosses due to the Stormbow existing.
Due to his crazy machines he makes in Greek Mythology, I wouldn’t put it past him to have made these contraptions to have been used for tasks in attacking and defending against enemies.
I feel the twins and Skeletron prime are made for Defense and Assault, and the Destroyer was for, as it said, full scale destruction of lands or probably just digging tunnels to transport armies safely.
The Steampunker comes along well after Daedalus’ death and tampers with the contraptions, trying to figure out how they work and to get a peek into the insane mind of Daedalus.
However, in the process, she screws up a little, a terrible mistake as you now have 3 mechanical nightmares to fight, all of them meant to beat the brakes off of full scale armies.
And you, the lone warrior, single handedly destroy these creations, and eventually going up against something far stronger than them, killing an eldritch god.
You, a mortal, ascending to the power of a god, you aren’t just a warrior.
You are the Main Character.
nah, man made up his own lore
Remember: this is vanilla Terraria, not Calamity mod!
@@plaguenplay3516 that's draedon not deadulus
@@agiri891 I mean, Daedalus was a figure in Calamity mod's lore too, at some point
@@plaguenplay3516 he was? i need to revise my calamity lore
Order of the guide! This lore is absolutely mad! I thought that there would be some big Cthulhu somewhere in the lore but the fact that it might actually be Moonlord is absolutely insane. I wish that we did get a little bit more about how Ocram was part of Cthulhu because that really struck my interest. I love terraria and have wanted to know more about the lore! Thanks!
@No tf?
@@SkullkidXavy its a bot
@@agiri891 I had a feeling after I sent the comment :/
From what I can understand Ocram was the mechanical brain of Cthulhu, but in the lore we probably rescue the mechanic before it is even completed. And at that point the cultists are probably like "ok, screw this sci-fi cyborg bull****, let's go back to summoning eldritch gods."
We need matpat to do a theory on this
I think redigit confirmed that the moon lord is the cthulhu
The lore says that Cthulhu retreated to the moon to regenerate
Yes, the Moon Lord is Cthulhu. He was regenerating on the moon and thats why he has his brain and everything again. He literally summons the True Eye of Cthulhu, obviously he is Cthulhu
The Ending: Princess takes Witch Doctor to meet his people, the Lizhhards, so they can be in peace again.
This guy: "The princess and witch doctor live happily together."
The Witch Doctor: A lihzhard who's probably one of the most ancient characters in the game
The Princess: **a literal child**
For all we know, the Princess could be helping the Witch Doctor. They are together, just not in a romantic way. More like a peace between species
@@prediculous8059 I know, but the way they phrased that made it look lime they were in a romantic relationship
@@prediculous8059 in that case the you can just say the princess and the lihzards live hapilly ever

@@loonytoongt1245its that easy to get rid of an Old God
the real lore is:
"In the vast expanse of Terraria's universe, a tale of cosmic struggle unfolds. At the heart of this celestial drama stand two ancient and powerful entities: the Moon Lord and his enigmatic brother, Cthulhu. Eons ago, these cosmic beings existed as a single, unimaginably powerful entity, embodying the dual nature of light and dark.
In a time of primordial chaos, Cthulhu, driven by a hunger for power, shattered himself into fragments that were cast across the cosmos. Some of these fragments found their way to Terraria, where they manifested as twisted creatures of darkness. The eye of one such fragment became the menacing Eye of Cthulhu, a relentless force bent on asserting its dominance.
Skeletron, once a mighty guardian, was ensnared by the corrupted essence of another Cthulhu fragment. Twisted and transformed, Skeletron became the sentinel of the Dungeon, guarding its ancient secrets with unyielding determination.
As these remnants of Cthulhu's fractured self began to exert their influence over Terraria, the world's very balance was at stake. The ethereal guardian, the Dryad, recognized the threat they posed. With her connection to the natural forces of the world, she rallied the forces of light against the encroaching darkness.
Braving untold challenges and formidable enemies, Terraria's valiant heroes sought to stem the tide of corruption. In an epic battle that spanned the realms of the living and the ethereal, the Dryad, channeling the world's remaining purity, confronted the essence of Cthulhu itself.
Through her unyielding courage and the power of the land, she managed to suppress Cthulhu's malevolent influence. The forces of corruption waned, and the sinister hold over Terraria weakened. Cthulhu's influence was shattered, its fragments rendered powerless.
Yet, as the Dryad's victory secured the world's present, the Moon Lord, Cthulhu's twin, gazed upon Terraria from the far reaches of the cosmos. Unbeknownst to all, he watched and waited, his intentions and motives shrouded in cosmic mystery. The ultimate confrontation between these celestial siblings looms on the horizon, promising a climax that will shape Terraria's destiny.
In this dynamic world, Terraria itself is a living entity, its very essence tied to the ebb and flow of life. The Hallow, a realm of radiant light and vibrant colors, is the world's defense mechanism. When a threat emerges, it spreads its ethereal influence, erasing corruption and thwarting darkness. The Hallow, in its eternal wisdom, safeguards the delicate balance that sustains Terraria.
Deep within the shadows, the Dungeon stands as a testament to the ancient past. It is within its echoing halls that the true nature of the Wall of Flesh is revealed. No mere monstrosity, the Wall of Flesh is the guardian of a cosmic secret. It stands as a barrier, preventing the unbridled release of the world's souls.
These souls, with their immense power and energy, must be kept in check to maintain the equilibrium of Terraria. The Wall of Flesh is bound to its duty, a sentinel cursed to endure an existence of agony and sacrifice, all to ensure that the delicate balance between life and death is maintained.
In the depths of the underworld, where fire and brimstone rage, the Wall of Flesh stands as both a challenge and a warning. Its defeat is not merely a triumph of strength but a reminder of the interwoven destinies that shape Terraria's fate.
In this interconnected cycle of existence, even the player becomes a part of the intricate tapestry. The Guide, a knowledgeable figure, serves as a guardian of lore and wisdom. Passing down knowledge from generation to generation, the Guide's legacy is eternal, ensuring that the lessons of Terraria are never forgotten." please like this took me forever

I might not be right, but i feel like that moon lord is the soul of cthulu that was lost in the world until the pillars were defeated

you know how the moon lord is technically cthulhu since his eyes are called true eye of cthulhu

From what i can understand, it's his gut
@@watermelon_god either that or the spine
His Johnson
There is debate in the community for if it is the gut or the spine, though looking at the name I personally believe it is the guts. Not just that, but also the length of the boss is far too long to be the spine if we agree that it originates from Moonlord as what is left of Cthulhu.
Isn’t EoW a creation of the Corruption?
The Last clip of the credits turned to a dark way
I have been playing terraria since before moonlord (which now i realize isn't that long ago) and i did not now so much of this. Thanks for the vid.
Im surprised no one has ever covered the four different banner types you find in the dungeon.
the steampunker created the mech bosses, hence why she spawns after you defeat them
no, terraria lore said it was the mechanic

“Let’s start with corruption, because it’s the best” is the most wrong sentence I’ve ever heard
There's far more demon altars in Corruption
Eater of Worlds is easier than Brain of Cthulhu
Monsters in Corruption are far, far, far easier and less annoying than in Crimson
Shadow Armor > Crimson Armor
Dart rifle > Dart pistol
Chain Guillotines > Fetid Baghhacks (they were nerfed and now useless basically)
Clinger Staff > Life Drain
Putrid Scent > Flesh Knuckles
Cursed flame darts > Ichor darts
Cursed Flames >> Golden Shower
Cursed Flames debuff > Ichor debuff in situations when you deal damage less than three times a second to a single enemy (so, when fighting a crowd, or using a weapon with less than "very fast" use time, ichor is a waste)
Crimson behaves and looks like canser, which is EWW
Look at the truth and see for yourself what and who is right
tbh corruption players are weak and crimson have stronk players i do both lol
I love the lore and imaging it. Unlike most people the goblin tinker is the most useful and vital character to me. Everyone tends to hate him and make memes [justified]. But I always tried to imagine his background his culture, loving your nation of goblins yet supplying humans. Trusting humans and rebuilding love and trust again and allowing others to take charge while being in agony that two cultures could not find middle ground. And seeing what he could do with his skills and knowledge to help others even if it caused the entire universe itself to hate him. And it did. Without the Tinkerer what knowledge would you have to go off of. What risks did he take and will all of society dispose him for the knowledge he had. It is written in his character is society outcasted him and now he has to adjust having all his hopes and dreams shattered finding chaos in the midst. I picked him as my favorite character out of all of them. Try playing terraria without the reforge system. Without the crafting system. Play terraria again but having no knowledge to guide you and see how dark the world becomes. [Words of an edgy fanfic writer]
I agree about the goblin tinkerer being useful, however I honestly cant not jump in on the "goblin stinkerer" train as its really funny
Order of the guide!

Theory based in @Mizosu’s comment: Since moon lord is canonically Cthulhu, when he was banished to the moon, he changed his form and his name became Moon Lord.

I have myself a theory as to how and why Moon Lord could be Cthulu's brother and Cthulu himself. So after Cthulu was banished to the moon, his brother the Moon Lord found him and so Cthulu ate parts of his brother to try to survive (hence why his legs are missing. And to clarify it could interpreted as ML willingly gave them up or Cthulu forced it) and then put his soul into ML so his body may regenerate hence why the celestial sigil summons ML instead of Cthulu, it is Cthulu but in ML's body.
that's a really dark but cool theory
@@MuhammadKhan-ib9ct thx. I honestly think this could be how Moon Lord is both Cthulu's brother and Cthulu himself
i literally got an ad for “terraria minigames” before this
Is that why the dryad always said "Be Safe. Terraria needs you." When you asked for the status of the world?
I feel like to keep up with lorecraftian vein, Chtulu aka Moonlord should permiate a debuff at the start of the fight. Some bosses have these serous debuffs that needs an immunity consumable or item (in calamity mod i think). However also lore wise I like the fact that you cannot really beat Chutulu as it resets time before his summoning durring his death.
While it would be nice to have a gadget that can prevent this time hop, just ignoring Moonlord, never actually beating it and just moving on the story would be also okay tbf, as he IS banished and cant actually do anything. Summoning him and attempt to kill him is just as any other game lore, just to make sure his dead now that we have a hero that can make it happen.
how can the skeleton is a cthulhu
Well most of pre hard mode bosses is parts of cthulhu so skeletron could be that?
Arms and Skull
Me after reading Wings of Fire and playing terraria:
“Why does the crimson sort of seem like the breathe of evil?”
I've been waiting my whole life for this video
'
If the mechanical bosses were made by the cultists to represent the parts of cthulu then I wonder what part the eater of worlds represents 😅
Either the Tongue or Spine you dirty minded person
spine maybe
@@sux2bu3 Yeah, the lore changes a bit depending on the world evil. EoC and BoC are just those parts reanimated, while the eater of worlds doesn't have any connection to Cthulhu/Moon Lord and is simply just a huge creature who rules over the corruption. The mech bosses tho, are all made from Cthulhu's/Moon Lord's body parts. Twins are the eyes, Destroyer is the spine and skeletron prime is part of the skeleton (According to the wiki)
it is revealed to be a simulacrum of Cthulhu's spine. Despite being heavily influenced from in design, the Eater of Worlds has no connection to Cthulhu and is not mentioned to be a former body part. (thats what the wiki says)
Ngl as long as I remember
I talked to a dev and he told that we are actually the villain
The cultist were actually good and were trying to stop the moon lord from summoning
The lunar pillars are the final attempt to stop the moon lord to get into this world again
So lore wise,we are the bad villain
i loved watching this, man :)

cool vid btw
"Let's start with corruption because it's the best"
Cons:
1. The boss is harder.
2. The accessory is worthless, 17% less damage is still not enough to not to die to a boulder.
3. The stats of the pickaxe are worse than the crimson's counterpart, making farming hellstone waste more time and the obsidian skin potion will wear out faster.
4. The hardmode enemies include the worms which are annoying during farming.
Pros:
1. The light pet is stationary in the air and not bouncing around like a f---ing moron.
2. Has access to the shadowflame debuff.
3. Has a ranged weapon in Hardmode in fishing.
Crimson on the other hand has ichor debuff, a completely goated vampire knifes, a decent melee weapon, way easier boss, one of the best accessories in the game because of the dodge chance ( which also increases crit chance by 10% ).
Now, corruption lovers, say something in defense to the crimson enjoyer.
The vibe in the corruption is just better
@@TerrariaSlime reasonable and understandable, have a nice day!
@@randomidk6206 The good ending
I am still not used to the brain of confusion not being objectively shit
Another pro: cursed flames and a fish that grants access to a potion that allows you to do more damage, while the crimson counterpart just increases crit chance.
I think the mech boss are supposed to be a replica of the Cthulhu but it didn't continue because they ran out of time (and that's because of us) annd if you ask me about destroyer his just a test subject to see if its possible to create more mech boss and his the first one your supposed to fight after all so you get the clue
Thank you for this video
now imagine if someone made a mod, where cthulhu regained all of its bodyparts
Skeleton = bones of cthulhu
Wof = flesh of cthulhu
Eater of Worlds = stomach
Brain of cthulhu
Eye(s) of cthulhu
Slime = blood of cthulhu
THE ANGLER = soul of cthulhu
Moon lord = Kthanid (Cthulhu's beloved brother who hates you)
You = god
how tf does a giant worm = stomach
@@slenderman7597 it's an eldritch horror dawg it's not supposed to be the exact same as human anatomy
@@cleond.kingfire9113 think he meant intestines, after all it is the eater of worlds
