Level -0.55

Level -0.55 is an extremely unstable sub-level that lies between Level 0 and Level -1
Description
Level -0.55 also known as "LV" and formally known as "The Grayscale Castle", is a ominous sub-level that is located somewhere between Level 0 and Level -1. This level has 2 main sections, these sections are known as "The Grayscale Castle", and the "The Unstable Waters".

|-| The Grayscale Castle=
==Description==
"The Grayscale Castle," a massive edifice situated within the confines of Level -0.55, is reminiscent of a centuries-old, eerie medieval stronghold. Within its walls, a labyrinthine network of chambers, corridors, and chapels awaits exploration. The interior of the castle is adorned with an array of sculptures depicting mythical or aberrant creatures, as well as an assortment of medieval-style objects.
Notably, the castle features extraordinarily large windows, towering to heights of 15-20 feet, which are a prominent feature throughout its passages. While these windows typically appear sealed, they can be compelled open with considerable force. Peering out through these openings provides a breathtaking vista of the entire expanse of Level -0.55.
The absence of a day or night cycle in this section creates a perpetually static "daytime" environment, with a consistent temperature of 55°F (12.7°C). This unique setting is accompanied by a soft static noise of unknown origin, which persists without any apparent variation in proximity. Furthermore, it is worth noting that the majority of wanderers who enter Level -0.55 ultimately find themselves in this particular section.
It is important to note that while this section may appear devoid of entities, it is not without its share of dangers. Among these is the presence of hazardous holes that can lead unwary wanderers into the perilous depths of The Void. In addition to the threat of The Void, wanderers must also be wary of encountering "glitches" within this section. These glitches can manifest in a variety of ways, often causing odd and unpredictable effects. One common glitch is the alteration of the solidity of certain areas, causing them to become non-solid and allowing individuals to unwittingly walk right through them. This can lead to potentially disastrous consequences, as one might find themselves suddenly plummeting into The Void without warning.
Furthermore, these glitches have been known to affect wanderers in different ways, ranging from disorientation to physical dislocation. It is crucial for anyone navigating this section to remain cautious and vigilant in order to avoid falling victim to the unpredictable nature of these glitches. In light of these dangers, it is advisable for wanderers to exercise extreme caution while traversing this section. Keeping a keen eye out for any signs of glitches or hazardous openings is paramount to ensuring a safe and uneventful journey through this otherwise desolate space.
Many parts of this section are susceptible to breakage and destruction, leading to the emergence of The Void. These voids, which are rarely connected to other negative sub-levels, pose a significant inconvenience to individuals exploring this area. When left unattended, these broken sections have the ability to regenerate, restoring their original state and maintaining the integrity of the section. This phenomenon contributes to the overall complexity and challenge of navigating through this particular area. However, by understanding and anticipating the potential for regeneration, explorers can adapt their approach to effectively navigate and overcome the obstacles presented within this section.
This section is known to affected by the Grayscale Effect.
|-| The Unstable Waters=
==Description==
"The Unstable Waters" is a perilous and highly unpredictable region within Level -0.55. Situated beyond the confines of "The Grayscale Castle", this area takes the shape of what appears to be an endless ocean. Unlike other areas within this level, "The Unstable Waters" remain unaffected by The Grayscale Effect. Many explorers mistake the liquid within this ocean for water, when in reality, it is an unidentified syrup-like substance. Swimming in these waters is an exceedingly hazardous endeavor, as the viscosity of the liquid poses a significant drowning risk to those who attempt to traverse it. Consequently, it is strongly advised that wanderers refrain from swimming in "The Unstable Waters" to avoid any potential threats to their safety. 
The bottom of "The Unstable Waters" has remained a mystery, leading many seafarers to dub this part of the ocean as "The Abyss". This enigmatic region is characterized by a climate reminiscent of a balmy summer day, with temperatures ranging from 78-85°F or 25.5-29.4°C. The sky above is a vivid cerulean, and a gentle, warm breeze caresses the surface of the water. Despite the pleasant warmth, the absence of direct sunlight gives this area an eerie and otherworldly ambiance. The waves in this section of "The Unstable Waters" are typically serene, except when influenced by the phenomenon known as the Instability Effect. This natural occurrence can cause sudden and dramatic changes in the behavior of the ocean's currents and waves, adding to the mysterious nature of this already enigmatic expanse.
The presence of the "Instability Effect" in this particular section poses a grave threat to any individuals venturing into the area. This hazard not only impacts the tides but also has a profound effect on the overall state of the ocean, leading to unpredictability and rapid changes. The repercussions of this hazard are immense, leading to extreme and unpredictable phenomena such as dramatic temperature fluctuations, sudden and intense ocean waves that rise to colossal heights, and the water's temperature reaching boiling point or even freezing entirely.
These erratic and volatile conditions create an environment that is not only highly dangerous but also demands the utmost caution and vigilance from all seafarers and travelers. The need for careful navigation and a profound understanding of the nature of the ocean cannot be overstated when dealing with the instabilities present in this area. It is imperative for all individuals navigating these tumultuous waters to exercise extreme caution and prudence, as even the most experienced seafarers and travelers may find themselves at the mercy of the unpredictable forces at play.

Effects
===Instability Effect===
The "Instability Effect" is a phenomenon that manifests within the unique environment of "The Unstable Waters", leading to heightened chaos and unpredictability. One prominent manifestation of this effect is the extreme fluctuations in temperature, which can rapidly shift to drastic highs or lows within a short timespan. These erratic temperature changes pose significant challenges to any entities navigating or attempting to harness the resources of The Unstable Waters. Moreover, the Instability Effect extends beyond temperature variations, impacting various other factors within this volatile setting. This instability demands heightened vigilance and adaptability for those seeking to operate within The Unstable Waters, as the environment continually presents new and unpredictable challenges.
===Grayscale Effect===
The "Grayscale Effect" is a visually stunning phenomenon that occurs within The Grayscale Castle, completely altering the wanderer's perception of color. As the wanderer steps into the castle, the world transforms into shades of grey, stripping away the vibrant hues and leaving behind a mesmerizing grayscale landscape.
Entities
No entities exist within this level.
Colonies & Outposts
No outposts nor colonies exist within Level -0.55, many have tried, but none have succeeded.
===Outposts History===
Chaos Report Team (CRT)
The CRT was the main group within this level, this group was responsible for containing and keeping track of the Instability Effect. However the group later would perish due to the effect. The group had 8+ members and only two remain.
-0.55's Photography Team (55PT)
This group had an obsession with taking pictures of -0.55, many believe the group was affected by the Instability Effect however no claims were proven. The group had around 5 members none of the member were ever found. 55PT was also responsible for coming up with the name for the level.
