Chao Lore and Personality

Pearl Wood Chao spend most of their day gnawing on the same types of trees, sticks and leaves they were fed at a young age. After they finish eating, they harvest leftover parts of the tree and give it to the gardener, as if sharing their leftover food with them. Pearl Wood Chao have tough skin, similar to real wood, and they're slightly heavier than your average Chao. These Chao are sluggish because of their above average weight but it makes them very strong choices for Chao Karate. Their tough skin, above average weight and hard wooden punches make them powerful combatants and very difficult to fight because they can take a lot of damage and before getting knocked off stage.

Pearl Wood Chao don't enjoy swimming or running because their hardened and heavier body makes it too difficult to move around. If a Pearl Wood Chao falls into a pool of water, they end up motionlessly floating on their back in the water and they'll stay floating there until they're either taken out by their gardener or in some cases, pulled out by other Chao. Pearl Wood Chao are very slow readers, writers and singers but they are extremely patient and stay at Chao kindergarten longer than most Chao, which makes them learn a little bit more than your average Chao. Pearl Wood Chao can't dance because of how difficult it is for them, so they like to sit nearby and cheer on other Chao that are dancing.

Chao History

Pearl Wood Chao are based off Pearl Wood from Vanilla Terraria.

Originally, I wanted to make a color for each Hallowed Tree color but the colors were too light so I scrapped the idea and decided to have each color on a different piece of the Chao instead. I feel that because of this approach to its coloring, the Pearl Wood Chao is the most interestingly colored one of the batch of Wood Chao and it's Piers' favorite one, along with the Spooky Wood Chao.
