Level 155

Level 155 is the 156th level of the Backrooms. It was discovered on 25/06/2017 by an anonymous wanderer and is home to several hazards, entities, and perilousity.
==Description==
Level 155—an expansive, abandoned maze of large brick walls and arches—is a currently finite region, spanning a linear distance of around 50 kilometers horizontally in a hexagonal shape (≈1619 kilometers²). Its surface is made of stone and surrounded by a thin layer of waste, moss, dirt, and debris. The subsequent wooden roof is worn out and decaying, with planks constantly falling to the ground, indicating that the level is undergoing dangerous changes. The sunlight passes through the common gaps, being the only natural light source of the level.
This level is dank, with temperatures varying between 11°C and 17°C. The level seems to have a working day-night cycle, with the average day lasting approximately 4 hours. During the night periods, little to no light is present in the level, and all wanderers will experience pitch-black darkness. One must quickly leave the level before the night starts, as the entities of Level 155 become more aggressive during this period. Despite Level 155 being impossible to sustain human life, usual fauna such as roaches and rats thrive.
The walls of Level 155 are maze-like structures made out of stone bricks. They are found 15 kilometers around the center in a rectangular shape. They are randomly segmented but aligned in a grid-like structure; some parts can be as long as two kilometers, while some are not even 20 meters long. They gradually progress into the Arches Area. The surface area of this segment is approximately 584 square kilometers or ≈36% of the total surface area.
The approximately 129M arches in total of Level 155, much like the walls, are aligned in a grid-like structure, with each arch varying in width and height. Arches tend to get wider near the edges of the level and are usually about 8 meters away from each other. The surface area of this segment is approximately 1035 square kilometers or ≈64% of the total surface area.
The Sewers is a name given to a group of gigantic interconnected sewer lines, which serve as an easy and safe way to travel Level 155. Entrances to them can suddenly appear on the walls of Level 155 at seemingly random places. They have a cylindrical shape and are about 9 meters wide. Large puddles of water are always present on the ground of The Sewers. After leaving through a narrow passage, you appear in a random location somewhere else on the level. Nearly no light gets inside this area, so all the wanderers will experience pitch-black darkness, similar to the night periods. The only light source is the further mentioned Lines of Fire.
The Lines of Fire is a group of interconnected sparkling lines that rarely thrive, gliding exclusively near the edges of Level 155. These objects are non-corporeal and can be noclipped. When phased through, these lines give off warm heat and are the principal heat source in Level 155.
The Lines of Fire have a unique property; they repel all the other entities of Level 155, acting as a temporary safe spot for those who may encounter them. They bend, curve, and twist slowly; they pose no threat to the Wanderer, although whether these objects are alive or dead is currently uncharted. The Lines of Fire's colors are not constant; they change periodically, going from red to yellow, sometimes orange, and even further. Those are bright and vivid and sometimes more or less bright. During night periods, they act as the only consistent light source in Level 155, given that the usual light source is non-existent.
==Colonies and Outposts==
Due to the extreme hazards and logistical challenges associated with maintaining and establishing colonies or outposts at Level 155, there are currently none here.
==Entities==
*Deathmoths usually make their nests at the tops of the brick arches. They are generally hostile towards Wanderers; thus, refrain from climbing the arches or making loud noises at this level.
*Strains of the Hydrolitis Plague live around Level 155. While inside here, it is noteworthy to ensure one will make minimal contact with all surfaces to prevent infection; nonetheless, after leaving, decontamination/quarantining any equipment that may have made contact with surfaces is advised.
==Entrances and Exits==
===Entrances===
*Going too deep into Level 108 sometimes leads to Level 155.
===Exits===
*Climbing up to the attic of Level 155 leads to Level 19.1.
