Desert Merchant

Desert Merchants live alone in houses made of Plain Bricks in deserts and can spend stars to buy items and items to buy stars. Desert Merchants are not always easy to find even if a player searches near their base, and if they are unlucky, they may have to go as far as 10,000 blocks away to find them. If a player finds a Desert Merchant, it is recommended for them to place a marker on the map so that they can come back later.

Desert Merchants have a habit of following players that are holding Cooked Rice in their hand, and they can use this habit to bring them to any place they want. However, if the difference in elevation is too great, the Desert Merchant will not be able to follow them, and if they are underwater, the Desert Merchant's movement speed will decrease and it will not be able to climb steps because it cannot jump. If the merchant goes underwater, use Stairs or Cantboards to help it climb the steps and get out of the water and onto land.

Desert Merchants can sell and buy various items and can reset what they are selling, etc. by spending 5 stars. To buy an item, use a Star; to buy a Star, use an item. See the box below for items that can be bought and sold.
