Level 986

Level 986, dubbed "Baker-Miller Prison", “Pink-Colored-Suffering” or “The Pink Prison”, is the 987th positive level of the Backrooms. It was discovered on March 14th of 1932 by several unknown explorers, presumably from the Auto Nexus group.
==Description==
Level 986 takes on the appearance of an infinite Swiss prison from the Frontrooms; however, this prison seems to be pink-colored, specifically the Baker-Miller pink hue. There are various segmented hallways, offices, and cells found throughout the level; they seem to reformulate themselves like in Level 0, when wanderers are not nearby. This process takes roughly one day. The flooring on Level 986 is gray, unlike the walls. A small number of the cells are locked, making it almost impossible to enter them, with the majority of the cells being unlocked. The bars separating the cells from the hallways, unlike most of the level, are a hue of metal gray. Rarely, the flo 
in the cells may be a shade of vibrant orange. orAcross the hallways, several items may be seen on the floor, such as spoiled food and keys to locked cells. The hallways of Level 986 are moderately wide, with large tables being able to fit into them. The tables in the hallways may have keys to unlock the cells alongside Level Keys. Inside the cells, one can find objects such as Almond Water, lunch trays, spoiled food, spoons, clothes, and bricks. A pair of bunk beds can be found on each side of each cell, although some cells may have only one bed, where only one person fits. 
Several wooden doors in the level, which are not colored pink but instead brown, may lead to offices, which regularly include a large and wide meeting table. Several items can be seen on the table, such as pens, pieces of paper of an investigative nature, cups of coffee, and bottles of hand sanitizer. The table is surrounded by four pots of plants. Security cameras are situated in each corner of the offices. In Level 986, there are also meeting rooms and investigation rooms, among others. The meeting rooms are similar to the offices; however, one can find a projector, blank pieces of paper, and canvases, among other objects found within the meeting rooms. Investigation rooms are generally dimly lit, with a large pinboard with photos on the wall, a small table with a cup of coffee, papers, and two metal chairs. The walls of the investigation rooms are dark brown, almost black. The bathrooms in Level 986 are separated from the cells. Metal, blue closets are spread around the bathrooms, while no toilets have been reported in the level. Sinks, chairs, benches, and showers are also present within the bathrooms.
There are several uncommon, anomalous vending machines that float around Level 986. The vending machines have various knock-off foods from the Frontrooms. The vending machines may also have original foods. The foods in the machines vary, including bread, canned beans or meat, sodas, juice, and popcorn, among others. When a vending machine has an empty slot, objects randomly materialize inside the machine; if not, the vending machine will refill after all products have been removed from the machine. The vending machines fly around nearby wanderers, being relatively hidden. Once there are no wanderers, the machine flies into another area. To gain food from the machine, one simply needs a flat surface, like cloth or bland paper, to make a transaction.
There are cafeterias in Level 986, similar to the rest of the level. The cafeterias are usually 100-by-100-meter-long spaces with concrete flooring. The cafeterias are filled with long, hard tables and benches built of concrete. These areas have a buffet area, with drinks and food on display, sitting at a long wooden table. Lunch trays, napkins, plates, coffee machines, menu papers, and others may be seen around the tables; weirdly, the plates look clean. Wanderers report that the food at the buffet section has a rubber texture and is tasteless. The food also seems to never rot. In some cafeterias, besides the buffet section, wanderers can find a metal door with a window leading to the kitchen; however, they are locked perpetually, and wanderers cannot pass; they can only observe the kitchen from outside. The cafeterias have wide, very opaque windows that do not allow anyone to see outside. Almond Water and other supplies can be found on the tables. In the cafeterias, there are also customer service tables and a cashier machine.
There are various air vents around Level 986; they vary in length, materials, and width. Most air vents are composed of metal. In most cases, it is impossible to crawl within the vents, as many are small and one can easily get stuck. Mold and other deadly fungi are also very common in the vents. The mold rapidly expands within the air vent system; theorists appoint that this may infect the level's air, killing all living beings in the level at that moment, which may be soon. There are small holes in the vents. Some entities lurk within the vents. The vents have an air conditioning system, which cools them down. Water and several mysterious liquids around the air vents. Pieces of food can also be encountered rarely, normally in the small holes. Duct tape is also found in the air vents. The winds in Level 986's air vents are fast and strong enough to throw a medium-sized being into the other side of the air vent system, with fans boosting the wind speed.
Some cells appear to have better conditions and are richer. These cells have sinks and connected bathrooms. The beds are cleaner and more comfortable. Instead of two bunk beds, there are two large, wide beds where two people can fit in. The beds may have cushions, pillowcases, and blankets in them. Clothes can also be found and thrown around. The richer cells also appear to all be unlocked. These cells also have distractions, such as a squishy toy or a Rubik's cube, among others. These cells also have a counter. The counter has a small box of supplies, along with some plates, forks, and knives. There are also windows that are opaque, similar to the ones in the cafeterias. In some of the richer cells, there can also be outlets, pieces of paper for drawings, pencils, and erasers in the counters.
In Level 986, there are inside basketball and volleyball rooms. These rooms have no windows and are 100 by 100 meters. They are split into two sections: basketball sections and volleyball sections. In the basketball section, there are four basketball nets and two bags with basketballs. The volleyball section has 2-4 nets and a bag of volleyballs, although some volleyballs may be scattered around the floor. There may also be rooms with various sports items, such as nets and balls. 
Staying for a long amount of time in Level 986 will cause a mental illness known as "Pink Insanity", the effect may be slowed down by meditating. One can avoid this fate by not staring at pink objects for very long; otherwise, they will gain Pink Insanity. If one has Pink Insanity for too long, it may become contagious, becoming more and more contagious as time passes. The symptons of Pink Insanity will be shown below in the table:
Symptons of Pink Insanity; Revision as of March 13, 2020, 12:26 P.M.
1 hour 	Feeling uncomfortable. 	Feeling of an impeding doom. 	N/A
3 hours 	Hearing voices, mainly female. 	Unexpected convultions. 	Ultimate worrying,
10 hours	Screaming in unexpected moments for no apparent reason. 	Extreme hallucinations 	Beginning of Wretched Cycle.
24 hours	Victim may stop seeing humans, but instead, entities, anything that wasn't pink will be pink.	Irreversible damages. 	Red, infected eyes.
72 hours	Immense pain. 	Blindness. 	Insanity

In this level, there are therapy rooms. They are the only fully non-pink area of the level. They have two wooden armchairs with black cushions and colorful pilllows; the pilllows are equal in appearance, having abstract art on the front. There are glass counters with a lamp connected to an outlet and a plant pot as well. The plant in the pot is large, almost falling down. There are unrecognized paintings with abstract or figurative art. There is a white bed with no blankets and a yellow pillow. The floor has a rudimentary beige carpet as well as plant pots. Wanderers can only stay 10 minutes in therapy rooms before being kicked out by an unknown force. When in therapy rooms, one's mental health will improve by 5% every minute. The therapy room door stays locked when someone is inside, and no one else can enter, no matter how hard they try.
There is a series of journals in Level 986 known as "Mind Reading?" or "The Bake-Miller Archive." The journals tell the entire history of the level, as well as previously undiscovered properties, entities, phenomena, and important events, among others. There are a total of seven journals scattered around the level, although only three have been found; however, these journals indicate the existence of four other journals. The journals are currently exceedingly protected property of the Auto Nexus, heavily guarded in the depths of Level 275. According to the physical description of the journals described by Auto Nexus historians, the journals' covers seem to be Bake-Miller pink, with a slight gray shade in each corner and black text in the center reading "Mind Reading?: The Bake-Miller Archive." The Auto Nexus requests anyone who encounters a journal to donate it for "Educational" purposes. There is also an alternate series of newspapers named "Mind Reading?" Being much more common than the journals commonly found in cells and hallways, newspapers are filled with false information. Newspapers are less searched, derised, and expensive than journals, almost being sold regularly to wanderers as a main staple of entertainment in Level 986.
==Entities==
In Level 986, The Armless may be found as the most common entity, Skin-Stealers, Foams, and Kats may also rarely be found within the level. Entities in Level 986 manifest as hallucinations before materializing, these "entities" are known as Pink Manifestations. Other level-exclusive entities inhabit Level 986.
=== Pink Manifestations ===
===Entity 986: "Pink Guards"===
===Bake-Miller===
==Colonies and Outposts==
A small number of nameless outposts exist within Level 986, however, most collapse within months due to the various mental hazards present in the level. The only two major outposts in Level 986 is owned by the Auto Nexus.
===Auto Nexus Base "Volkswagen"===
Base Volkswagen is the only major outpost in Level 986. It has a small population of 2,003 and is owned by the Auto Nexus, situated mainly in Level 275. The Auto Nexus uses cells within this level to imprison traitors, M.E.G. agents, etc. They have a unique medicine manufactured back in Level 275 from elements within this level to chemically make a pill known as Rosa Kur to help wanderers and their agents within this level. Whenever a prisoner gains Pink Insanity, the Auto Nexus implies a variant of "Rosa Kur" for the prisoner. It mostly cures the prisoner but still leaves traces, enough to mildly harm them. In order to monopolize the "Rosa Kur" medicine, each pill harbors a unique microchip. The chip consists of a rudimentary detector that will identify any element related to the M.E.G., such as its symbol, colors, etc.; if found, it will explode. Each shipment from Level 275 to Level 986 is heavily guarded by various soldiers.
