Description
The "Aquatic Void" of Level 457
Level 457 is an ocean that appears to stretch infinitely in all directions, only having a surface. There are always storms with massive waves averaging four meters tall, but some have been said to reach over three hundred meters. It is always night time, the only natural source of light being the moon, and the temperature never exceeds more than 15 Celsius or falls below 5 Celsius.
Upon arriving in Level 457, the traveler's belongings disintegrate into small crystals of ice that quickly melt away, leaving them with only their clothing.
Entities
Lurking in the sea are grey, medium-sized, fish-like entities known as Zjakers. If someone finds themselves stuck in Level 457 without knowing how to escape and is unlucky enough be bitten by one, they will quickly turn to ice, break apart into tiny pellets of ice and melt into the water like their aforementioned items. This change cannot be undone and the person is considered dead the moment they are attacked by a Zjacker. Due to this, it is not recommended to stay in Level 457 for more than a few seconds if possible.
