My Winter Wind

My newest house is my favorite, and that's the Winter Wind. I made sure to decorate it perfectly, and I think it turned out pretty okay! Here are some pictures:

 In front of the house I made a carnival, with lots of games. The one shown above is a cannon game, where you can try to shoot your pet into the water buckets.

 This is the crane game, where you can control the crane to try to get a prize.

And at the back on this side there is a joust.

 On the other side of the house, there's a throwing game, where you try to knock over the rocks to win.

 Next to that there's a pie eating contest.

 And next to the pie eating contest there is a fortune teller's booth.

And what's a carnival without a carousel and apple dunking?

 If you're more into fighting there's a midnight sun pagoda across from the carousel area.

 Or you can go the the pvp arena, but be sure to practice first on the mannequins!

 More peacefully, there's a small dog park in the secret area.

And near the pond wizards can relax and have a coconut drink with mannequins that look like me.

 Near the castle you'll find a knight and his girlfriend.

 And behind it there's a frozen forest, with a little clearing above. It seems tranquil but there is a crystal spider there to be weary of.

And now for the inside, which is where the king and queen's family live.

 When you walk in a friendly hydra greets you, and all the people of the king's court.

 Speaking of the king, King Dexter loves to hang out in his king room, where he keeps all of his trophies and precious items.

And across the way is the royal tea room, where the queen and princess sometimes serve cherry pie.

 Upstairs there is a kid's room, where they keep all their toys and games.

 Next to that is the royal playroom, where great shows are put on for the royal family.

 Here is the prince's bedroom, where Prince Moose is by the bed.

 Across from that is the princess's bedroom, where you can usually find Princess Peanut.

 When people have a problem with the king, they talk it out in this meeting room.

And after a long day of kingship the king can relax in his bedroom, where Queen Hailey is in this picture.

 In the dungeon/storage area there is a dragon, as told by the sign.

And inside people can relax in the royal library.

Wow that needed a lot of pictures, but it is a really huge house. It'll be fun to play a bunch of tag and scavenger hunt games in!

Questing

Lately in Wizard101 I've been helping a bunch of people, including my my highest level alt, Emily UnicornFlower who's doing Celestia. She's speeding through it because when Amber and Emily are working together I just make Emily blade Amber for a super forest lord.

Emily was in the Grotto at the beginning of summer, but a few days ago she made it to the Science Center. 

Yesterday I was helping my dad quest some in Avalon (so he could catch up to me). It was kind of neat because we have matching outfits.

Even though he's storm and can just cast tempest to knock everything out, I did manage to get off some good forest lord hits, including one that did twenty thousand!

We're both level 74 now, so I'm getting the gnome pet in four levels! I'm really excited to hatch a bunch of them to decorate gardens with, like my ghost garden (or maybe soon to be regular garden when I get second spring)

One in a Million

Today I just decided, hey, it'd be cool to get the 'One in a Million' badge. I looked on central, and there's this nice guide that tells you how to do it. So I followed some of the instructions, and with the help of my balance, Emily UnicornFlower, I did it!

(Okay I cheated, that's not the spell that killed him, you can tell because there's no blades)

(Yay animations :D)

Really it's not that "one in a million" because a bunch of people have it, but it's still cool!

Ready for Avalon, and More New Stuff

After a bunch of hurried questing, my dad and I finally finished Zafaria, so when it comes out we can go to Avalon! I'm super excited because I heard it's better than the last world. 

Another thing that's cool, I bought a few Emperor's Attic packs (okay, I can't lie, a LOT of Emperor's Attic's packs) and got the tag game!

I've already played a bunch of wildfire games and I know it'll pay for itself with the good times I'll have with it. Even if that takes a loooong time.

Even another thing that's new, I finished the legendary crafting quest.

It took a lot of buying fossils at the bazaar, but even that wasn't that hard. 

Okay, best for last, Pirate101 info was released! I can finally talk about it. Alpha has been really cool. Now I'm Amber UnicornFlower and Happy Robin Ramsey! Expect a header change as soon as Beta comes out. 

If you haven't heard about Pirate101, just check out yesterday's Austin American-Statesman article about it:

 Not the first time one of Kingsisle's achievements has been in the paper, but this is probably one of the coolest articles. Oh, and look at this clip!

It mentions puppet shows, which happens to be my favorite part about the game. If you want to read the whole article, just check out the newspaper website.

I guess that's all for now. :D

Ghost Garden (and Other Stuff)

At my Royal Estate house I've been making a ghost garden, but not all the plants are elder just yet. I started out with three kinds of flytraps (I didn't realize until later they'd all look the same as ghosts

Then I added a bread fruit bush, a snapdragon, and a deadly ninja fig.

Now I have evil snow peas, orange bell peppers, helephant ears, and baby carrots.

I can't wait until they're all elder, it'll look so cool.

Yesterday my dad and I were questing a bit more in Zafaria, and I finally got to level 70!

And lastly, the final picture for the Avalon puzzle was released, so here's what I have right now:

I'm missing four pieces and it's a little messed up, but it's close enough for me!

Crazy Collector

Lately, I've been collecting a lot of music scrolls, just by buying them at the Bazaar. I have a bunch of music players now to hold the different worlds' scrolls, all lined up like this:

Right now my count is at forty different scrolls, but I'm still striving for more. Here's a list of all the scrolls I currently have.

My top two favorite scrolls at the moment are the Wizard101 Main theme scroll (one of the only ones I've actually farmed for, dropped by Alicane Swiftarrow) and the Zafaria main theme one.

Anyway, my other collection is bobble heads, because they are really cool looking. I also like the nice bobbling animation. Currently I think I have all the bobble heads. I keep them all in a room in my massive fantasy palace.

I really like the teacher bobble heads in that last picture, I hope they make all the teachers in bobble head form, that would be so cute for a mini school!

Post Script:

What a sad sight!
