Lore (Catalyst)
The Catalyst Mod and much of its contents have a rich lore associated with them. While most of it is unnecessary to the central gameplay, it can be read and understood as a means to make the world feel more alive and give bosses and items more purpose.
Lore Items
Lore Items are items with a piece of lore written into them, and are dropped by their respective boss on their first kill. They are also able to be crafted using the boss's respective trophy. The descriptions of these items are insights and commentary on both locations the player has been to and bosses the player has slain.
All lore items initially have the tooltip 'Whispers from on high dance in your ears... Press "Left Shift" to listen closer' and will then display their full contents when ⇧ Left Shift is pressed.

Astrageldon | Such an existence that defies comprehension. Draedon once reported on this anomalous power from his survey of the Astral Infection. But even through his brilliance, he could not fully grasp its distinct astral-gelatin nature. He did uncover that the entity had been contaminated with a more potent strain of the infection. Its sheer density was incalculable, far surpassing the bounds of reason. Yet, its strange viscosity ignored any explanation. If it be truly gelatinous, then its ambition is nigh limitless. The ideal host for such an infection. Its hunger would be insatiable. Uncontrollable and indomitable. A perfection of the natural order. The covetous Slime God would have been envy stricken at a mere thought of such potential. With it now eradicated, one can ponder what greater threats lie far beyond. |
