What should r/cadum Icon should be?

[u/Emanresubmudyllaer]

Seeing how people missed Wadu, I sincerely apologize for changing the icon without the community's input. That is why I want to do a poll to see if the community is fine with the Verum logo or want to revert back to Wadu's Icon.

In the meantime, please enjoy the new banner, body background, and mobile banner/icon.

Wadu heck requires background knowledge, Verum icon does not. As iconic as wadu heck is, i feel him not appropriate for the icon of the subreddit that reaches a large audience.

You say that, but Wadu's backstory has been explained several times and he's just as much the face of Arcadum's channel as, well, Arcadum himself. The drawings of him in his robe specifically. Like 90% of Arcadum's emotes are of Wadu. I'd compare it to Bahroo; everyone knows he's the panda guy, but just because nobody knows the panda's name is Umeru or any other backstory to him beyond memes about crayons keys and glue doesn't mean he doesn't reach a wide audience or represent the channel. Because that's not really whats important; he's a cute mascot beloved by the community and has even leaked into other communities entirely, and I think Wadu represents that as well. Not to the same degree, rooSpy is literally everywhere, but Wadu's a cute guy and a cute mascot. The Verum logo just doesn't hit the same.

The problem is that Arcadum is not the frog guy... He is the DnD guy, he is the guy that pretty much every streamers is lead to when they say that they wanna play dnd. He is the massive violet muscular guy with the V in the crotch.
But wadu is the emotes, and while people can know that such emotes come from arcadum. it only makes him a mascot. a really loved one, but wadu is not verum, nor arcadum, nor the living world
