TODO: turn this into the actual clock cult lore page

Clock cult represents endless need to construct and create. Represents both "insane engineering autism projects" and "insane Coder Bullshit" at the same time as its meta-aspect.

Bronze and brass are the same metal except it's brass when it's got Ravarian power in it and bronze otherwise. Because brass would be complete shit as a building material without some metal shit in it.

Things with innate connections to clock cult: Supermatter crystals (center of a lot of Engineer Gaming-related things) Mothpeople (Moth engineering is canon, also because the original Yoggers clockie stuff stole a lot of shit from hollow knight for no discernable reason)  BRass and bronze (duh lol) Silicons (less so than moths for some reason!)


## What the hell is a forge frenzy
also known as a strange mood or a tinker fugue (or a lot of other things) because the concept is wholly stolen from worth the candle (where they're called forge frenzies, also WTC stole it from dwarf fortress), dwarf fortress (where they're called strange moods), and worm (where tinker fugues are dubiously actually canon anyways)

tldr supernatural obsessive urge to create something, said "something" may well be beyond the typical capabilities of the constructor or like Anyone At All (ie the entire thing is just supernaturally fuelled). amount can vary

things that are canonically the result of Weird Construction Urges:
* ratvar (atemporally)
* the grand solar orrery
* kugelblitz and rube goldberg class ships
* mothpeople
* most of what people do with a BYO class, honestly

things that were build under forge frenzy tend to require continuous maintenance that only those under frenzy are particularly capable of (the grand solary orrery is one such example, but it's also a mass frenzy, so basically anyone who it manages to rope into its permanent ongoing strange mood is able to actually maintain it, and htis is a lot of people).  this basically amounts to a permanent ongoing passive frenzy

ratvar presides over this supernatural force as a whole because hes the most cungadero whore to ever get built like that. atemporal. hes powerful. hes based and kek instead of cringe . im losing the train of thought im gonna take a shower now?
