Overview
Calamity Mod (typically called "Calamity" by the community) is a large fanmade content mod created by Fabsol and developed by The Calamity Mod Team for use with Terraria. The mod's 1.0 version was released on June 1st, 2016.
The mod notably adds 30 new and unique bosses and their theme music, 2 new difficulty modes, 1000+ items, world generation changes to accommodate 5 new biomes, 5 town NPC's and many more changes to things like balancing and AI.
The mod is still undergoing development, so many of the aspects relating to the added Lore is yet to be solidified and is subject to change/removal. As of 2024, there is very little lore pertaining to the player, other than seemingly being a "force of nature" or fate.
The core gameplay is the same as that of the original "vanilla"/un-modded Terraria experience, with players creating a character and progressing through the game via the killing of bosses, with the ultimate endgame being to complete the "Terminus Ritual", a boss rush event that has the player fight stronger versions of all previous bosses.
