Bearded Merchant
For some reason, the Ice King from Adventure Time got stuck in this world. He now makes a living by selling rare metal ores and lava meat while waiting for his penguin to rescue him.

Cloaked Merchant
This shady character leads a cult dedicated to resurrecting the old “gods.” Luckily for us, they succeeded.

Seasonal Merchant
After losing all his money in a failed investment in the KFD restaurant chain (Kaveling Fried Dodo), Colonel Sander opened a Gift Shop. The Gift Shop became so successful that he is now the richest person in Core City.

Fishing Merchant
At a young age, the “fishing merchant” dreamed of catching the biggest fish in history. While that dream never came true, he eventually opened an aquatic store. He doesn't earn much from it, but at least he gets to do what he loves.

Brave Merchant
After his latest expedition into the Passage, the Brave Merchant (formerly known as the Brave Adventurer) developed PTSD and never went on another adventure again. He retired and opened a cosplay shop where some of his costumes work like the real thing.

1st, you press CTRL+U to toggle off the HUD icons.
Then you have to take multiple pictures of your base (jpg or png files).
Last, you need to use a photo editing software (eg. Photoshop or GIMP) to merge the pictures together into 1 single jpg file.

If you have experience with photo editing programs like Photoshop then it is possible with extreme editing (like merging 2 different screenshots of the same spot together). But the effort is not worth it so If I have to merge the pictures, I will just accept the character to be there

I am really proud of what I have made, so I believe I will "edit me out" so the temple can be fully appreciated AtlanteanRainbow

at a same spot, take 2 screenshot:

Take the 1st screenshot
Move 1 tile to the side. Take the 2nd screenshot
Open your photo editing software.
3a.Trim the 1st screenshot in half.
3b. Trim the 2nd screenshot in half.
3c. Match the 2 halves of those screenshots together
