For the first and last time, I’m going to lay out all the ACTUAL CANON FACTS about CALEB’S MECHANICAL ARM, directly based on the GAME’S ORIGINAL LORE in this thread.‼️
First of all, please stop presenting your own headcanons as if they were the actual canon lore of the game.
And I want to make this absolutely clear:
“Professor Lucius and the research team at the Toring Cybernetics Institute rescued Caleb and modified his damaged right arm.”
That is the actual game lore.
Here’s what the game actually tells us:
1. WORLD UNDERNEATH 19 — SERPENT’S CAST
This section gives us some of the most important information about what happened to #Caleb after the explosion and how his mechanical arm came to exist.
Before the explosion at the house in Bloomshore, Caleb uses his Evol to protect MC by containing and reducing the explosion’s range and intensity. Because of this, he takes the majority of the blast’s impact himself, with his right arm suffering particularly severe damage.
Professor Lucius finds Caleb beneath the rubble before the rest of the laboratory forces arrive. Caleb is already on the verge of death when Lucius finds him.
At the Toring Cybernetics Institute, which operates under EVER, advanced cybernetic technology is used to reconstruct his damaged arm. Nano-threads reconnect the dead nerves in Caleb’s right arm, allowing the mechanical replacement to function.
At the same time, the researchers attempt to activate the Toring Chip inside Caleb, using it to infiltrate his consciousness and feed data into his mind in an attempt to control him.
Caleb remains in a coma, yet he demonstrates an extraordinary level of psychological resistance. His resistance is so unusual that it genuinely surprises both the researchers and Professor Lucius.
