How to copy a character in Terraria
Copying a character in Terraria isn't a feature provided directly in the game, but you can do it manually! Just navigate to the Terraria folder in your documents (it's usually in Documents\My Games\Terraria\Players for Windows users). Here, you'll find files for each of your characters. Simply copy the file of the character you want to duplicate and paste it in the same folder, but rename it. Boom! You've cloned your character.

Honestly, just play the game and make a new character. Part of the fun is experiencing the progression and challenge. Taking shortcuts with copies kinda takes away from that Terraria magic, don't you think?
I've done this a lot for testing stuff. Make sure to backup your characters before copying. Had a friend who lost his original character cause he messed up renaming. Better safe than sorry!
