Painter

The Painter is an NPC who sells Paint and painting Tools, as well as Paintings and Wallpaper. He will arrive after a painting is collected, and a suitable House is available. The best way to find a painting is to enter the dungeon, and climb the platforms to the top. The banners at the top of the Dungeon count as paintings.

The paintings that the Painter has for sale change based on the biome he is living in, and based on the Moon phase. During the Christmas season, the Painter sells a variety of holiday-themed wallpaper. Note that for the biome requirement, all that is needed is that the Painter NPC be present in said biome, it is enough to move him there with a King Statue. This is especially useful for the Deadland and Chasms paintings since NPCs will not want to live in a corrupt environment, though it is still advised to at least create a safe room where the summoned NPCs will not be hassled by monsters or fall into chasms.

If threatened the Painter will defend himself with a Paintball Gun.
