Level 33: The Chasm - Bridge Keep

2023-12-16T20:07:03+00:00

Backrooms Level 33, also known as the bottomless and topless chasm...

The ancient Bridge Keep once stood at the entrance of a vast Chasm kingdom. Now run down, and falling apart, it hosts at least one noclip point. Entities and doleful creatures roam the keep's halls and passage ways.

Travels claim vast networks of tunnels and caves riddle the Chasm's cliffs, all connected to Bridge Keep.

The Howling Knight often rescues travels who accidentally noclip into the keep, bringing them to more civilized and safe regions.

Level 33: Biomes and cultures of the Backrooms Chasm

2023-12-16T02:13:22+00:00

Backrooms Level 33 is a bottomless and topless chasm.

The chasm extends farther than humans can explore in a lifetime. In some areas, it might remind you of the infinite stairways of Escher. In other areas, the local civilization might take on a style similar to the cliff dwellers of Arizona's past. In still other regions, it invokes the mythical stone cities hanging impossibly from the undersides of massive overhangs. In still other areas, you feel as if the builders of Petra made a fantastic second go at it here.

The canyon spans widths similar to the Grand Canyon, and then narrows down to that of a slot canyon. The chasm extends off in seemingly infinite branches, sometimes intersecting with other branches. The biomes range from rugged granite, to desert sandstone, to alpine forest.

Traveling where no carved road or path exists often requires dangerous climbs and is impossible most non-native pack animals.

At night, stars appear in the exposed sky above, and what appear like stars appear in the depths. Though, the "stars" in the depths seem to move around slowly. The theories abound as to whether those are stars in the depths, or reflections of the stars above, or maybe tears of those whose loved ones have fallen into the depths.

The Chasm's height feels infinite, as does the depth. Possibly, no one has reached the top because of the altitude and thinness of the air. Others have attempted to reach the bottom, but never returned.

Level 33: Flash Floods in the Backrooms Chasm

Backrooms Level 33 is a bottomless and topless chasm. The walls are sometimes narrowly spaced, and sometimes separated by miles. No one has ever seen the top or the bottom of the chasm.

One of the many unique dangers of the chasm lies in the sudden flashfloods down its walls. Somewhere up at the top, there a great flood happens due to heavy rain or some other event, and comes flooding and falling down the sides of the chasm. If the unwary traveller gets caught away from shelter durring these events, then they risk being washed to the unexplored depths. All residents of the chasm agree that this means certain death.

Though these floods pose serious risks to the residents of the chasm, they also provide life. The irregular flash flood waters get captured by a network of channels that direct the excess water into massive cisterns. These cisterns become the source of water for farming, drinking, and bathing.

The sole tell that these floods are on the way happens when drizzling mist falls from the heights, warning that the flood will strike soon. The residents warn, "Beware the mist."
