All blockheads arrive by being "warped in" using a [[Portal#Warp In Blockhead|portal]]. The first blockhead in a new [[world]] is free. Up to four more may be added, requiring the expenditure of [[Time Crystal|time crystals]] and five game-selected [[fruit]] or other [[Food|edible]].

Each successive blockhead will cost a different (increasing) amount of time crystals, starting at 50 for a second, 100 for a third, 150 for a fourth, and 200 for a fifth blockhead. With the introduction of death in [[Game updates/20140402|version 1.5]], note that the cost is based on the number of alive blockheads, not the total number warped in.

New blockheads arrive with a small [[Starting Equipment|selection of items]] in their [[inventory]]. Each additional blockhead is warped in with different tiered [[item]]s (for example, the second blockhead might start with a [[Machete|bronze machete]], 5 [[fruit]] and a [[basket]]). A new blockhead usually arrives carrying the items used to warp it in.

A blockhead's name may be up to 15 characters long. It may include non-alphabetic characters, such as symbols and numbers, although they are limited to the characters accessible using the English keyboard. Most accented characters will not be displayed if in a blockhead's name, however.

==Notes==
Although [[Game updates/20131010|version 1.4]] introduced the ability for blockheads to attack each other, this only works during [[multiplayer]] encounters. In [[Game updates/20140402|version 1.5]], a setting was added allowing PVP to be disabled during multiplayer. A blockhead cannot directly interact with another blockhead controlled by the same player.
