Squid Coast(location)

Squid Coast is a village located in a plains biome, and it's adjacent to a desert biome. It was a naturally spawning village before it was desesigned, expanded, and defended by The A Team. Click here for the book in Minecraft Dungeons with the same name.

## **Appearance**

Squid Coast is a large village surrounded by a seemingly-wooden wall. The wall is actually obsidian, but painted to look like wood. This is not just so the wall looks nicer, but it's meant to catch raiders off guard when trying to light the wall on fire. The emerald mansions are made of stone brick with emeralds on the top, and a stair ceiling with an overhand. The flooring inside of the houses is made of cobblestone. The A Team has different houses that fit their tastes.

It has a large forge, which has a volcanic theme. The armory is made of quartz, and the basement holds all of The A Team's weapons and armor. The storage room is very complex, having tripwire booby traps, a secret tunnel to bypass them, a fake storage room, and a real storage room that is accessible by putting an item in the fake input chest. The market uses quartz and smooth stone, and has a large storage of food, blocks, and minerals.

## **How to Enter**

Because the server is so vast and infinite, it might be hard for some people to find Squid Coast. Even if you do find Squid Coast, not just anyone will be let in. A player content on joining The A Team might be given a tour in Squid Coast, and of course current members of The A Team come and go as they please. That includes those who technically don't *live* in Squid Coast, such as Violet and Megabone.

## **Locations**

### **The Emerald Mansions**

Squid Coast is filled with emerald mansions that serve as the villagers' homes. The idea was Dogs360's, and it popped in her head during a build competition with MeerWorld24.

### **The A Team Bases**

The A Team has their bases scattered around Squid Coast. Not all members reside in Squid Coast, however. A good example is Megabone, as she lives in her own skeleton kingdom instead of Squid Coast.

### **Storage Building**

The storage building is very complex, as entering it starts with trying not to activate the booby traps. When a tripwire hook is triggered, a bunch of arrows and potions from cloned dispensers start firing. When an item is dropped off to the real storage room, the booby traps are deactivated. There is also a secret tunnel for those who know about it.

If you can make it past the booby traps, you will need to figure out the puzzle of the fake storage room. This is where all raiders give up because they can't figure it out, and they're one item away from getting in. Honestly, raiders never expect to have to put an item *inside* the chest in order to open a door, and that's exactly what is needed.

The real storage room is identical to the fake storage room, but everything is actually functional. There is an automatic sorting system that takes items out of the input chest and sorts them in one of the output chests. The sorting system also takes loot from the door opening chest in the fake storage room, and takes loot from the hopper minecart inside of the booby trap chamber. There is also a junk chest that takes items inside of it and dumps them into lava after a period of time.

There is also a chamber to The A Team's treasure room, which holds treasures such as the Titanic Blade that Dylan Congris wielded. One of the biggest treasures they obtained was the Golden Rod that the Orb of Dominance rested on previously. Fortunately, The A Team checked, double-checked, and triple-checked to make sure it still wasn't corrupted, and it wasn't.

### **The Ender-Virus Monument**

This monument was built by CleverWolf06, and it was where the funeral for Lucinda and Felix was located. The memorial is made of quartz and diorite, with two graves inside of it - one for Felix, who died from explosion damage, and the other for Lucinda, who died of fall damage. It is also where the ender chest used to contain Herobrine's deadly experience is held.

### **Volcanic Forge**

The volcanic forge was built by MeerWorld24 originally, and was a box of crying obsidian. Dogs360 changed it, however, because it didn't look nice, and decided on a volcanic theme. As such, it is made of basalt, magma blocks, and netherrack. The basement of the forge is where all of the machinery does its work, while the top floor is where the blacksmith hammers metal into the weapon.

### **Armory**

The armory was built by Dogs360, and is a tower of stone brick with a symbol of The A Team's amulet. This is where The A Team stores their weapons and armor. The weapons are stored in the base floor, and the basement holds the armor.

### **Market**

The market was made by MeerWorld24, who used crying obsidian and quartz blocks, before being changed by Dogs360 into smooth stone and quartz in a way that makes the market look nice. The market contains blocks, food, and minerals that are purchasable for different amounts of emeralds.
