Primordial Beasts

Primordial Beasts are world bosses in the Cradleworld.

They used to rule the primordial world and many where killed in battle the gods, resulting in cataclysmic disaster. Most of them where slain, burried or forgotten.

They come in different forms and appearances and all of them drop special loot in the Rare and Epic Tier, sometimes even Legendary. Unless a God rewards you with a special item or you buy one from the Quartermaster of a nation, defeating a primordial is a sure way to secure som special loot.

Once they are dead, they are dead. Therefore, primordials will continue to make appearances until an army big enough can take it down. The only exception is Gapplehead, who often returns.

## Possible Primordials

It is possible that the Gods are Primordials, but it's not very likely, since honest Clitus would've told humanity and hobbitkin if he where.

The skeleton of a great sea monster is laying on top of Mount Aquila. It was slain and dragged there by Nanook the Ice God to feast upon sometime in the late Age of Heroes. This might be the remains of a primordial, as it bear a striking resemblence to Anglohk.

## History

The Primordials are younger than the Gods. It is uncertain wether the Gods created them or if they came from another world, or maybe they somehow became an infection on the growing world, manifesting it's darkest sides into horrendous walking nightmares.

### Legends

There are Legends concerning some of the Primordials passed down in the religion of some cultures.

#### How Clitus saved the Hobbits

There is a hobbit legend concerning how one primordial, Anglohk, had managed to hide in the dark depths of the ocean where not even Clitus light could reach. But once Anglohks' hunger was stirred, he attacked and ate half of all the hobbits in the world, who by then lived in small islands in the western hemisphere. Clitus defeated this last demon, not even using His full power, and cast it back into it's own dark depths, at last to be forgotten.

#### The Three Heads and the Big Pig

There is an event from early in the Piglin Empire's history, when they came through the portal to the Overworld the first time. The piglins encountered one of the most terrifying primordials. A three-headed monster with a thirst for piglin blood. For half a century, this titan molested the piglins until finally, chased down by the Emperor himself in the Bacterian desert and finally destroyed after a hard battle where the Emperor had to use the full force of his power to burn it's flesh to the bone. The remains where left scattered in the desert and for some centuries remained a popular tourist attraction, however, anyone who would touch the skeleton of the three headed monster would soon get sick and die, so the bones where considered cursed while at the same time remaining a popular destination. In later centuries however, the moving desert has swallowed the remains of this great old one.

The piglin history records seems to deliberately leave out any mentions of a name for this Primordial, but refers to it as the Three-headed monster.

#### The Stalker of Duria

A select few and rare documents from the dwarven race of Duria had been recovered before the dwarven race was extinct. These documents where reports, diplomatic correspondence, trade requests, and letters. One of the last ones mentions a deeper cave underneath the old dwarven fortress recently found, and that they have found cyclopean stone-carvings depicting a terrifying flying monstrosity.

#### Gapplehead

There are legends amongst all nations of The Man with an Enchanted Golden Apple for a Head. Gapplehead is a Primordial in a humanoid shape. He appears in black clothing and armor, with an Enchanted Golden Apple where his head should be. He is the only Primordial known to respawn regurlarly.

#### The Decoration Consultant

According to Toad Darmotty, the gossipy bartender of the Frogistan Tavern, there are rumors that there exists a Decoration Consultant who is actually a very powerful primordial. But Toad can't tell who it is because he made a promise to keep it a secret.

## Powers

They are extremely strong and resiliant with thousands of HP. All of them have unique and special powers.

It takes an army of fully geared players to just stand a chance against them.
