Description
Level 515 resembles a tropical island that is in a constant state of night. The island is surrounded by a large sea that seems to stretch infinitely in all directions. The island itself is finite and is estimated to measure around 212,000 square miles. As of 1/21/22, there has been no sign of any other islands.
The air on Level 515 is very humid, making the level feel hot and tiring, earning Level 515 the nickname "Hazy Hotel". Do not let your guard down, however, as this may make you an easier target for the Hounds and Clumps that tend to reside in the forested areas of Level 515.
The only area of the level mostly unaffected by the humid air is the hotel, a large building located near the center of the level. The hotel is goes up to seven stories tall. There were 300 rooms in the hotel, each one capable of housing at least 2 people.
Rooms in the hotel are minimalistic and oftentimes include nothing more than a bed, a table and chair, and a bathroom. TVs are also present, but usually do not function properly. Thus, working TVs are considered a luxury among residents of Level 515. The hotel has a Wifi network, although connection fluctuates often and is unreliable. Sometimes, food is present in shelves around hotel rooms. This food does restock, however.
Aside from the hotel, Level 515 is covered in large swathes of tropical forest. Aside form the aforementioned Hounds and Clumps which inhabit it, the forest is unnaturally empty. Death Moth nests have also been spotted in some areas. Various species of insects and birds can sometimes be found living in the forest. The ocean of the level is inhabited by several species of fish. Thankfully, entities are not found to inhabit the hotel or the ocean.
Rainfall happens frequently on Level 515. During rainfall, run ins with entities becomes more common. The rain is made up of almond water and is safe to drink.
Colonies and Outposts
Guests of the Hazy Hotel
The Guests of the Hazy Hotel (as they refer to themselves) are a group of 432 wanderers in a close-knit community that inhabit the hotel of Level 515. They are very reclusive and most only leave the hotel for supply runs. They have begun cultivating crops in some parts of the level, however, making supply runs less relevant.
The hotel runs in a hierarchal fashion. Floors 5, 6 and 7 hold the most governing power while floors 1 to 4 have the least. Floors 5-7 have luxurious lives while floors 1-4 serve the upper floors and suffer more hardships. Jobs in the system include:
-Going to other levels to collect supplies
-Tending to the crops
-Eliminating entities
The group often takes in new arrivals and are open to trade. However, if you are not part of their group/don't have intentions to join them or have no intentions to trade, leave them be; they dislike intruders and may respond with force.
