This is my 50th Sprite Report, I wanted to make this one a little special.

I am honored to be one of the very first people to experience the TCG World Metaverse. The world is stunning.. and one of the areas that everyone has questions about is the North - what's going up up there? What's all this alien stuff?

The answer is... I literally have no idea... The North region in TCG World is snowy in most areas, but has, for lack of a better word, an infection in some areas. I honestly don't know what the story is going to be, but for sure Mike Miller and the lore team have something crazy in mind for the alien area.

A lot of the things are massive - HUGE! They make a dragon look small. The mushrooms(?) and other alien things range from small to large, and there are different types too. Some are pulsing, moving with the wind, and spewing spores everywhere. Some objects are shiny, some are glowing. The rocky bits look like moonrock kinda, some with holes, some glowing. There's seaweed stuff in different colors. There's drippy mushrooms. It's crazy! The design team has gone all out.

The area looks awesome in the day, but I prefer visiting at night. That's when everything is glowing, and against the stars and the night sky.. it's a place of creepy beauty in TCG World. As it is right now in Alpha Testing, some plots are right smack in the middle ofalien land - so you can actually live in, or very near, the alien biome!

For being in Alpha for a month now, I can tell you things have been added to the Alien biomes, and some have been taken away. An example is some HUGE orange bulbs that existed a couple weeks back. I'm guessing they'll return... but I say this 'cause I don't know if your experience will be the same - this may not look the same by the time you get in and visit yourself.

The first time we got a good look at this area was from TCG World's Biomes and Regions video, as seen below:

Here's the questions from the one-sheet Sprite Report : )

What’s going on in the North?

- Snow and alien stuffs.

What are they?

- Mushrooms, rocks, seaweed looking things.

Why are they here?

- 'cause they look amazing! To be revealed when the game goes live for everyone, no doubt!

Why are some so drippy?

- Some of the mushrooms are very drippy, but I have no idea why. Likely to attract prey of some kind...

What is that stuff coming out of them?

- There's goo. There's spores or pollen dusting off of some. It's icky. Need to bust out a microscope!

What’s inside them?

- I'm guessing alien caramel.

Can I eat them?

- You can do anything at least once, like skydiving!

Are they toxic to metaverse humans?

- Probably! But don't let that stop you from visiting, the sites are amazing and breathtaking, I cannot stress it enough. This area is one of the coolest areas in the whole metaverse!

Why are they so huge?

- To make you feel small like the puny human you are!

Why do they glow?

- Spock had green blood, so there's an answer probably with Spock.

Why do they pulse?

- They're alive!

What do they smell like?

- Raspberries. Space smells like raspberries, so I'm guessing anything alien like this smells like raspberries.

Are other regions affected?

- I have not seen any indication of alien biomes or anything like that in other regions. Again, it's early Alpha.

Is this my 50th Sprite Report?

- I've done more - but this is my 50th one-sheet - and 50th day in a row posting them.

Have I gone insane?

- Because of the alien stuff or me doing 50 in a row? Yes.

Did anyone actually read that? I praise you!

Let's get to the 120+ pictures! Thank you to Marianne and Jon the Builder for sharing theirs as well, I appreciate you beyond belief!

Time for that disclaimer I was hinting at before:

These pictures are from the Alpha Testing of the upcoming metaverse game TCG World. This is from early Alpha, and everything is subject to change. Appearance and locations are may change as the team works further in areas like this.

With that said, no, sadly, I cannot give you exact locations yet. The alien biomes exist in The North region, as was already revealed by TCG World in their biomes video above.

Jon visiting during the day.

Jon in a plot, a perfect shot.

Holy rocks!

There are hilly areas in the alien biomes.

The glowing underbelly of an alien mushroom.

More holy rocks. Or are these alien dice of some sort?

The alien stuff hasn't affected the vegetation at all.

Some appear to be floating almost!

Will Jon go in?

Jon sneaking up on something.

Different types of alien weed. They remind me of seaweed.

Jon's on top of some of them. This is a huge area.

Funky colors!

Sun's about to set!

Aliens in the evening.

Night comes and stuff lights up!

This dragon ain't afraid!

Alien biome with the sun coming up - or going down, can't tell.

Beautiful shot Jon!

Rocks and alien shrooms!

They're so large you can fly between them, makes the dragon look small.

The shrooms light up the area underneath them.

Size comparison.

There are some with structure - like these rocky loops.

See in the distance? They look like tentacles.

Can you hear the alien sounds when looking at this picture?

Enter Marianne! She dares to explore the alien landscape!

Great shot, it looks like day time is nearing.

This alien formation looks like fingers coming up from the earth.

Two different types of alien seaweed in this one.

Stars and alien biomes!

These images try, but they do NOT do this area justice. You have to experience it yourself!

Good shot of the sky in this one!

I ended up having a gold plot that I had allocated a long long time ago that was smack dab in the middle of the aliens. So I built a little throne.

Perfect view!

Me staring at beauty.

Me next to a plot.

This reminds me of the Iron Throne from Game of Thrones!

I got some rock/crystal details for ya! Unknown if we can crack these for TCG2.

They look amazing.

Me under a mushroom.

Me deep in the alien landscape. Under a rocky area.

Love these alien crystals(?)!

I climbed up top to get a good view!

Even on top of some of these, there's taller alien stuff still!

Just look at these formations!

Bear time! Me and the night sky! Oh.. alien stuff too.

Pink Bear, Purple Rocks.

Oh another good night shot!

There's different types of purple crystal looking things.

The dragon kinda glows at night.

Bear Me on top of a sturdy alien mushroom.

My new umbrella.

From above.

In some areas, the alien stuff is very dense!

These are all plots on the ground.

I'm very happy with the next few shots. The details of this formation are amazing.

A bear questioning why he's here.

I see a plot!

Pink bear likes pink neon things.

I'm in an unoccupied plot and zoomed out in this one.

Look at the glow form that goo! Lights up the crusty stalks!

Hello, I am Bear. Love to you.

This really is a wonderous area!

Side dragon!

Hilly in some areas.

Some kind of pathway perhaps? Or just another scar in the land?

A northern area, not yet developed, looking towards an alien biome.

This particular seaweed thingy pulses!

I mean.. look at this craziness!

A good drip photo bomb!

And the last one! Look at this rock / crystal! It's huge! Shiny! Brilliant!

I hope you enjoyed the pictures!
