Lion Castle

This castle was one I solo adventured in as a child. I love the design of it and wanted to recreate it in Terraria. I used manually did some of the block painting, and used TEdit and Gimp to align the side map to the castle proper. I used gemstone blocks to created the glowing eyes of the castle along with glowing teeth for the mouth. Background colors were added in to outline the relief of the lion and the hill it was placed on (it's clearer to see the relief colors in the map screen shot).

To fill the castle with furniture I used the original room descriptions as a guide. I filled it with furniture (using a lot of Shadewood and some Meteors) to fit what was represented in the module. Background is glass with clouds (I like to surround my objects with glass, to give it a protective bubble around the object, like a Mythal).

Some alterations from the original

  • I also had to convert the space into 1 dimensional rooms so was not able to really implement the multi room layout of the adventure.

  • The tail entrance was not added in. I couldn't figure a way to add it that was satisfying,

  • I was not able to add the wall around it

  • I added a room to the middle of the top to fill in the empty space.

  • There are extra chests throughout the castle as I was using this as my main base for a bit.
