Level 879 is the 880th level of the backrooms.

Survival Difficulty: 4 (Can very likely be higher)

  • Unsafe
  • Unsecure
  • Medium entity count

Description

Level 879 is a mountainous plains area resembling Montana. It is over 1000 miles in land area (Around 1069 in kilometers), and has a normal day and night cycle. It is also theorized to be a small planet, due to the level size and the linked levels with similar Earth-like climates.

Lakes are common, but instead of normal water, these lakes contain a thick, semi-solid material that has been confirmed to be edible. Abandoned cities are also common, many of them resembling Level 2015. Level 879 has a habitable climate, and abundant resources. There are also aggressive groups, but most of what makes this level dangerous are the entities that appear at night.

Entities

Puffballs have been found in this level, but there are many more dangerous entities, which only appear at night.

Kynigós

The most common entities at nighttime are kynigoí, pale white humanoid creatures. Depending on their variation, they can have wings, They are made of a resilient chalk-like substance, along with a colored sphere in the middle of their torso which keeps them alive. The easiest way they can be killed is by destroying the sphere, or waiting until day, when they disintegrate into a highly valued material, which looks like pale green ashes. It is unknown how they are formed.

Variations of kynigoí & notable

  • Walker

Walkers are the most common variation of kynigoí. The walk incredibly slowly and appear only during the night. However, they can be incredibly dangerous in large groups.

  • Muscolos

One of the only images of a Muscolo a survivor managed to take.

Muscolos are an uncommon type of kynigoí. They are extremely muscular and have incredible stamina and strength, being able to smash through concrete and run for miles at a time.

  • Strongman

Strongman is a notable Muscolo, due to being stronger than a normal one, and being seemingly immune to fire.

  • Demon

Demons are the most dangerous variation of kynigoí. Most of them reside in abandoned cities, where they traverse by jumping from building to building, and chasing any survivors of the normal-variation kynigoí hordes. They additionally spit acid at any survivors they can't reach.

List of valuable items

Many valuable items reside in Level 879, which can be sold at colonies throughout the region. Unfortunately, the value of most of these items decrease outside of the level.

Kynigoí ashes

Kynigoí ashes are a very valuable material, as it can be a substitute to sand.

List of notable locations

Nox's Bunker

Aeternus Nox, the leader of The Painters, ordered the members of his group to make a bunker in the northeast region of the level. This location has been confirmed to exist, due to the efforts of The Resistance.

  • Danger Level: 2/10 (formerly 8/10, but has decreased due to the bunker being abandoned)

Tristezite

Tristezite is a blue crystalline material found in the mines in this level. It has severe negative effects when physical contact is made, however, puffballs are not affected. All of these effects are negated when in its liquid or gas form. When in the presence of the Invidae, the crystals will permanently turn a bright green.

Effects of tristezite

  • 1 Hour: Affected person will feel a sense of dread.
  • 5 Hours: Affected person will feel guilty.
  • 8 Hours: Affected person will start crying.
  • 10 Hours: Affected person's heart will burst, killing them. There is a 70% chance of the affected person's hair to permanently turn a dark blue color instead.

Effects on puffballs

  • 1 Hour: Affected puffball will turn a dark blue color.
  • 8 Hours: Affected puffball will stop moving entirely.
  • 10 Hours: Affected puffball will go back to normal, the only noticeable difference being light blue or white markings leading from their eyes to their feet.

Colonies, Outposts, & Groups

The Painters

Not to be confused with a group of the same name in Level 2007.2

Paintersflag.png

The Painters were a cult residing in Level 879 who worship an unknown person. There is no information documenting the aforementioned person. It is likely that they were either delusional, and this person does not exist, or the way this person was viewed by the Painters is overly exaggerated. The former is recommended. Each and every one of their members carried a kind of rifle like R700, TG2 Magnum or M14, and P230 pistols. If someone did not wear one of their uniforms (Black and purple fatigues), they would attack that person on sight. If they captured a person instead of killing them, they would carve words onto the person's back. Despite their name, they rarely painted.
