̊。 Kallamar ⋆。‧ ̊ʚ🦑

Kallamar is one of the four Bishops of the Old Faith, the ruler of of Anchordeep, and the third major boss in Cult of the Lamb.[1] He is also the second eldest bishop and known for his cowardly attitude (As mentioned by various characters, and partially himself).

If you defeat him for the second time after defeating The One Who Waits, he becomes a follower with unique sound voice and dialogue, and quests that are unique to Kallamar. Note that he will immediately start off sick, so you will need to cure him or leave him in a bed to rest until he recovers.

While first acting arrogant, Kallamar is soon revealed to actually be the most cowardly among the Bishops, being the one to fear The One Who Waits the most and begging the Lamb to spare his life, going as far as putting all the blame on the other Bishops and begging the Lamb to kill Shamura instead of him.

Much like the other Bishops, he doesn't seem to care too much about his followers, being ready to have them sacrifice themselves for him and accidentally killing many others during his transformation.

As a follower, he is arguably the most amicable Bishop since, unlike Leshy and Heket (and, to some extent, The One Who Waits), he doesn't complain at all nor shows any hostility towards the Lamb (which is likely due to him being a coward and thus preferring to join the Lamb rather than going against them). That being said, he does show some slight arrogance, acting as if he still is an important person and considering his temple to be the most good-looking one.

Sometime in he past, Kallamar bargained with the Mystic Seller and became a god.

Alongside his siblings, Kallamar ruled over the Lands of the Old Faith as one of the last remaining gods. When his brother Narinder grew ambitious and power-hungry, he and the other Bishops sealed him away, which resulted in Kallamar's ears to be wounded.

When Narinder (now known as The One Who Waits) started sending vessels against them, Leshy and the others killed them one by one (except for Ratau, who was unsuccessful in his task) and killed all the lambs in the Lands to prevent a prophecy foretelling The One Who Waits' return. However, killing the last lamb has them end up directly to The One Who Waits, who revives them and grants them incredible powers.

When the Lamb enters Darkwood, Kallamar and Heket are eventually warned of this by Leshy. Heket decides to not bother Shamura about this and orders Leshy to deal with the Lamb. However, Leshy ends up being killed, much to Heket's anger, who casts famine upon the Lamb's followers before she and Kallamar ask for advice from Shamura, who isn't of much help due to their damaged brain.

After Heket is killed as well, Kallamar casts pestilence upon the Lamb's followers twice in an attempt to stop them, but eventually ends up begging for his life, putting all the blame for the Lamb's kind's genocide on the other Bishops and begging the Lamb to kill Shamura instead of him. Eventually, Kallamar is forced to fight the Lamb directly, succumbing like Leshy and Heket.

As revealed by the Mystic Seller, however, Kallamar and the other Bishops got stuck in a state where they have to relive their last moments of agony. As the Lamb ventures to allow all of them to pass on, Kallamar speaks to the Lamb through a statue of himself before sending minions against them and then attempts once more to kill them himself.

Defeated, Kallamar turns into a mortal and is converted to the Lamb's cult. At some point he will ask the Lamb to look for one of his ears in Anchordeep, which will allow the player to use said ear as a relic for the rest of the game.

Kallamar appears to be a cyan squid with a split open mouth filled with rows of teeth. His eyes have black sclera with red slits for pupils, and he appears to have a scar running across the skin surrounding his left eye. There are two pairs of cross-like protrusions appearing from his head, and he wears a cone-shaped crown that has a blue, circular eye. Both of his ears have been scarred by The One Who Waits and are covered by bandages. Like the other bishops, Kallamar wears a long black robe with golden trimmings that covers the rest of his body. His body appears more lumpy underneath his robes compared to the other bishops, possibly being hidden tentacles.

After using a ritual, sets of long tentacles appear along Kallamar's neck and body and he shows two pairs of arms. He also hovers slightly above the ground. He wields four different weapons, one in each hand - a staff, a sword, a dagger, and a globus cruciger.

In his second encounter in Relics of the Old Faith, Kallamar will receive a completely different appearance like his siblings. The entirety of Kallamar's skin on his right is scarred, with both bandages on his ears being removed to reveal they're just as scarred. His left eye's scar is also in a worse condition. In his eldritch form, Kallamar's weaponry receives a different apperance, along with his right arms being skeletal and the rest of the right side of his body receiving heavy injuries.

After completing his questline in the unholy alliance update, his bandages disappear, and are replaced with seaweed.
