Level 16 - Difficulty unmanned

## DESCRIPTION

Level 16 can be accessed by noclipping from real life, making this one of the few levels you can reach from reality. The level is like earth from reality, but everything has been abandoned by human beings for a few hundred years. We have also noticed something unique and yet odd about the level when you noclip and enter, which is that this level is somehow connected to reality. With time of day, season, and wanderer noclip location to be exactly the same in both worlds.

Along with the level connection, The *entire level* is our universe, but in a post-apocalyptic state. The level has a day-night cycle close to ours, with only minutes that are off. We have noticed the earth's orbit within this level/parallel universe is subtly off. Instead of the earth's seasons in balance, and the time it takes to orbit the sun (365 days or 366 days for leap years).

When you arrive, the planet will be on a more oblong orbit, with summer being cooler at 13.3o C (56o F), and winter being much hotter at 40.5o C ( 105o F), with spring and autumn about the same temperature at 17.78o C ( 64o F), making this level significantly warmer compared to reality, ~~and we have thought that that is why there is no life.~~ After exploring, we have found an asteroid crater, with the size of 79 KM, located in what used to be China, decimating the entire Asian continent, and dropping the sea levels by 1,200 feet. Along with this devastation, We have found bones of animals much like those on our own earth, as well as burnt human skeletons.

We suspect that this level may be an alternate universe where the asteroid, which missed us in this universe, had instead collided in the alternate universe, causing a mass extinction and to have the entire earth's orbit shift, Eventually killing off many more people and animals that survived the first devastation, when it started getting closer to the sun and heating up. No plants or trees have been alive, only barren, burnt remains of them within the original level, making the air almost unbreathable, and poisonous.

When the *AV* found this level ,they have been working on getting the level breathable again, and currently have successfully done so, with a few trees planted within their base.

While exploring the level, we have found evidence of survivors from the devastated earth before wanderers entered, due to finding old and torn outposts, where some people brought into the level after the devastation have reused as a means of shelter.

Thankfully, no entities exist within the level, but the level itself, to be exact the buildings and man made structures, can and have collapsed or fell apart, so being extra cautious when exploring the level is a great idea.

## OUTPOSTS / BASES

The Abyssal Voyagers, or the "AV"

The *AV* has made an outpost located in what used to be Ontario, Canada, spanning over 5 miles, and with 230 members, making this one of the bigger bases the *AV* has. They are open to trade, and have also brought back some life into the level, planting trees into the soil within the base, with some success. They are also open and willing to get new members if you feel like helping them out.

Base Omega-Alpha-D

*Base Omega-Alpha-D*, or *BOA-D* is a decently sized base, located in what used to be New York in the USA, with 56 members. They are hostile to most people, and will not hesitate to attack anyone who approaches the base, looting and stealing items the wanderer had carried for their own good. There are three ways an encounter with this base will go:

1. You are fired at to make you run away from the base
2. You will be fired at, getting hit by the bullets, before they either kill you with knives, or knock you down and loot you, leaving you to die
3. You will get a verbal warning if they think you are useless to them, either without much resources, or are starved and skinny.

The *BOA-D* have interacted with the *AV*, but have been unsuccessful in dwindling their numbers due to the vast numbers the *AV* has compared to the *BOA-D*.

USA Regressors

The *USA Regressors* are a base that is peaceful with everyone, who are attempting to reform the destroyed level and earth to the best of their ability, and has successfully done so to decent portions of the USA. Since the base moves, it is difficult to find them, but will be easily seen once you do find them, as they have over 600 members who all help to reform the USA and its devastation, randomly placed around the country. Because of its size, it has formed peace treaties with both the *AV*, and the *BOA-D*, however only the *AV* had signed the treaty, with the *BOA-D* not responding. Due to this, and the vast size, the attacks the *AV* from *BOA-D* have been unsuccessful, due to the numbers split up around the USA from *USA Regressors*, with some who are close to the *AV*. So far, the group has fixed most of Ohio, Illinois, and Michigan, with some moving into Canada to help with the *AV*'s outpost. The *USA Regressors* are open for trade and for new members, trading for anything to give you what you may need

X Kilos

*X Kilos* is a base located within the Californian area of the USA, a somewhat-friendly outpost, that has only 12 members, most of which being friends of the leader who all collectively noclipped. They wander the wasteland within California. If you manage to find them, they will be on edge, but willing to trade for sustenance and supplies to aid them in traveling, and may let in new members depending on their food level and water level.
