![]() ![]() This seems to have provided him with an increase in power, as he promptly exploded out of the Prospitian prison cell that had held him for many months. Lil Cal also seems to have had a hypnotic effect on Jack Noir, causing him to stab out his eyes and replace them with those of Lil Cal, as well as cut off his shackled leg, freeing him and giving a strikingly similar appearance to L ord English. This provides a correlation between Gamzee's friendship of Lil Cal, and his early knowledge of, and devotion to, cherubs. Both renditions of Cal seem to be influenced by the same curse, as suggested by Gamzee's hypnotic gaze into the eyes of a repaired B1 Cal. Specifically, Dream Cal was ultimately sent by Skaia, via the Reckoning, to become the Cal of both an early universe B1 and B2 due to the scratch. These two traits have been burned into his subconscious by Gamzee, which lead to the creation of a "dream self" for Cal that paradoxically became the very puppet owned by his Bro that haunted Dave's waking self and then in turn branched off into all other instances of Cal from there. Initially believed by Dave to be thoroughly awesome, Lil Cal slowly began to both disturb him over years of interaction, leading him to eventually flip the fuck out, through a combination of disquieting aesthetic and appearing very suddenly and inexplicably (though in most instances the latter is orchestrated by Dave's brother). However, this rendition of Cal was then found by Gamzee Makara in Earth's far future and delivered to a delighted Caliborn.ĭave Strider has a long history with Lil Cal through his ownership by his Bro. Despite his reluctance to do so, Dirk's selves are rendered unconscious and his waking self dropped his Cal into the ocean, which was currently on fire. Originally believing there to exist two separate instances of Cal within the same universe, one on Earth, one in Dirk's Dersite room, Caliborn had demanded that Dirk Strider destroyed his personal real world rendition which had acted as his guardian in the absence of his Bro, to enforce its inherent singular nature as a juju. Caliborn previously feared the curse Cal contained, but became relieved and excited when, in his communion with Cal, he realized that the curse would be brought about by himself. As an element of his curse and perhaps its origin, Cal's essence is entangled with Caliborn's his eyes serving as "the most beautiful windows into hideous soul." Lil Cal's origins are paradoxical and occur across multiple universes, making him one of the more temporally convoluted jujus. It has been stated to exist solely to ruin the lives of those within the universe containing it. Lil Cal is the most prominent juju in the comic, a seemingly innocuous if slightly unnerving puppet that in truth is a cursed vessel of misfortune. ![]() ![]() Meenah collected numerous Jujus during the Act 6 Intermission 3 minigame. But the abilities of juju breakers also disputes this somewhat. This would also explain why a juju cannot be destroyed, because destroying it at any point in time would result in the juju not being able to exist in the first place so that it could be destroyed, creating a grandfather paradox, an unstable loop that would result in a doomed timeline. Because the item is always becoming itself, it has no true or "traceable origin". These traits are similar to the traits of objects in a bootstrap paradox, where an object travels through time from the future, to the past, thereby creating itself in an eternal cycle. Many of the Felt's jujus resurfaced as memories within the dream bubbles occupied by the pre-scratch trolls for unknown reasons. The Midnight Crew used a few of these items as they fought the Felt, despite many cases where the owners didn't die or hand over the items. According to Caliborn, a juju always has an owner, and one can only take someone's juju if the original owner is killed or willingly gives it away.ĭuring the course of the Midnight Crew Intermission, many jujus possessing varying levels of control over time had been used by members of the Felt. ![]() Should there ever appear to be two copies of one juju, one of the "copies" is either an illusion or an error that will eventually be erased from existence, or more commonly, is destined to end up becoming the other version at some later time. Each juju exists as a single entity across all realities and cannot be copied or permanently destroyed. Jujus lack any sort of traceable origin, and some cherubs believe they simply appear spontaneously out of nothing. Jujus are a variety of magical objects with a complex system of rules governing their use. ![]()
