First: that is very true

Second: ... I just have a lot of love in my heart and autism in my brain lol

Still using the boomerang for now, but HELL YEAH +2 defense my beloved

Looking for a sky island

Only died once trying to find this. (I later used a gravitation potion and found 2 sky lakes)

HELL YEAH +4 DEFENSE AND NO FALL DAMAGE MY BELOVED

oHHHHHHH, am I gonna spend 2g50s on goblorc ears???

Yes. Yes I am.

Soon, my beloved..........

Frostburn, my beloved <3 <3 <3

I think every travelling merchant I've gotten here has been Eladon

NOTHING GOING ON IN THIS SCREENSHOT EXCEPT LIFE!!!

I was exploring the underground desert, and fell face first into a room that had like FIVE ANTLION CHARGERS SO I NOPED THE FUCK OUT

I NEED 27 MORE SILK TO MAKE THE SHIRT AND PANTS BUT I LOVE THIS SET SO SO SO MUCH

This is post gravitation potion. I should have known better than to go underground in the jungle yet lol

Huge tin vein! Not so interested in tin anymore, but always worth it to check

I was looking for stars and didn't look where I was running :(((

[crushing-the-crimson]

Things are going Pretty Okay!

Found a jar that made a little portal that dropped 10 GOLD COINS!!! You know I dropped that workbench/piggy bank combo to bank that IMMEDIATELY

By Talos, this can't be happening... (Twenty gold??? In less than five minutes??? *Pre Eye of Cthulu???*)

I love how frostburned enemies light up the map so wonderfully

Pretty successful on the ore front!

Got my vanity set AND a jellyfish necklace <3

Oh that isn't nearly as bright out of water as I thought it was.

Finally someone OTHER than Eladon.

A RUTHLESS RALLY? DONT MIND IF I DO!!!

Oh, my boomerang is still better, damn

...

Wait, is that...

IT IS!!!! (I saw my ice boomerang was a material so I asked the guide to tell me what I could make with it. But I also needed a shroomerang and an *enchanted* boomerang... Which I happen to have bc I made one with a wooden boomerang and a fallen star)

Which means...

ehehehehehe

HELL!!! YEAH!!!

HELL YEAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, that is a lovely greenhouse! I might have to make one inspired by it!!

He spends all day, every day hanging out in the greenhouse. Thanks for helping with the gardening, my guy. :)

[crushing-the-crimson]

Snow Biome! That's not what I expected lol

Hahahahaha TWO CHEST

I was trying to explore a cave, and it went waaaaaaaay further down than I was prepared for. Possibly time to look for sky islands, see if I can't find a horseshoe and/or a balloon

Pls pls pls let me get back to get my silver before night falls DX

(I did make it btw, got my 90 silver and teleported the fuck home before I could get got. Then I realized why the merchant wasn't coming. I forgot to add Safe Housing in my base lol

Trying to get a liiiiiittle more cactus without pissing off the Vulture. (I am very bad at underestimating vultures)

Cmon! Come in the base! (Why does no one want to come live in my base ever)

2 things: First, hubris is a bitch. Second... "voluntold to donate blood" is funny

Making a spot I can grab falling stars from (and space for more chests later) and I found some ore! I thought it was stone at first!

I know this isn't night vale, but I refuse to believe my Dye Trader's last name is anything but McDaniels

YOYOOOOOOOOOOOO Make me a yoyo man!

...once I find a yoyo that outperforms the ice boomerang. I can't afford to give up this opportunity for Kicking Ass And Taking Names

Too many vultures, imo

I like the tree that is supported on only two blocks. It's a good tree.

Don't need to. The Bride is just as into Dr Bones as her hubs is

The Groom is bisexual. Will not be elaborating further.

[crushing-the-crimson]

So far so good...

Okay, but you can't see the other two blue slimes and the two green slimes that I had to deal with all at the same time. It was a valiant effort.

Haha, protected

FIRST DAY FOUND A FREAKING CHEST. Besides being able to store coins, I'm most excited about the things I circled.

Get. In. The. Fucking. House. (don't even remember his name yet lol)

Okay, I am Melee4Lyfe, but ranged is pretty fucking based when you can do this. Though I should have made the arrow hole in the ceiling so I could shoot them when they paced above me. I'll try that next and see if that's more arrow efficient...

[crushing-the-crimson]

Master Mode, take 2

[crushing-the-crimson]

Gonna be real

Pond of Blossoms kinda sucks. If you go left, it's all mostly flat forest until you're headed into the Crimson. So you beat a hasty retreat and go right. No caves, no chests, no NOTHING until you get to the desert. And if you get strong enough to go PAST the desert, you STILL don't find any caves until you hit the JUNGLE.

And at this point, with no accessories or weapons from chests, no potions because there are not even any jars to break, I am 100% not prepared for underground desert OR jungle! I sure as SHIT am not ready to take on the CRIMSON!

Like I think as a normal world it would be fine. But with all the monsters being double tough with Master Mode, I just do not think it's worth it. Might make a Journey world with the name Pond of Blossoms for when I want to chill and just Build, but I am making a new Master world because I wanted this for a challenge, yes, but too much challenge straight off the bat isn't fun. At least not solo, you know?

[crushing-the-crimson]

Oooh, I'd almost prefer that honestly XD I'm not using those leaves for anything ANYWAY. Finding it would be a pain though, I feel you.

C'mon, man...

[crushing-the-crimson]

Pond of Blossoms first impressions!

Not bad, not bad, definitely a good spot for a base, and those sunflowers to the left will help! (A lot of my comments are just memes I say to myself to laugh)

Shit. That is gonna suck until I can replace it.

I've definitely started with worse axe modifiers, so eh

Get in the base Brian

Get in the fucking base!

Forgot my sword sucked...

Oh nice, Monster Pit (keeps Brian in and monsters out) has some ore veins nearby

I love exploring the surface of new worlds for the first time

NOT YET NOT YET NOT YET

Although to be fair...I've had the Crimson a LOT closer than that so I'll deal lol

It's about to be dark, so I figured I'd mine out the beginnings of my base for later, as long as I can't go outside yet

Damn, I forgot just how bad Broken is, I made a Wooden Sword after this, no modifier, and it's better. Keeping the copper tho for Zenith crafting. (just because I'm a Yoyo main as soon as I can be doesn't mean I don't like a good Ultimate Sword of Swords on occasion)

Made some armor too

So close...

But so far away

Got one haha

I have the high ground, Obi Wan

Drink cactus juice! It'll quench ya! I've gotten pretty far into the desert without running into a-

monster. I think I can jump over him? I'm definitely not strong enough to FIGHT him yet

HAH JUMP SUCCESSFUL

I think me and my hubris deserved that

I got cactus armor, and I need 16 more cactus to make a sword and pickaxe, but I am not as fond of my odds of jumping that guy

Brian. Get. In. The. Fucking. Base.

Brian, if you manage to survive all the way to me starting the Wall of Flesh fight, I will sacrifice you to summon it with a smile on my face and not one ounce of regret.

GOOD. THANK YOU. Fucking finally.

About Me

Charlie, 28, They/He lesbian

I've played Terraria before, usually by myself which can be plenty of fun, but I want to start making some new friends if anyone is interested!

I figured the best way to do so would be to catalogue a fresh run through, so I made a new character and a new Master world (Crimson, as you may have guessed) and I will make posts about my (mis)adventures in Pond of Blossoms! (I love some of the auto generated names you get in this game. I've gotten Domain of Dragons, Realm of Angels and I'm just now seeing a pattern in my favorites XD)
