Level 4 is the 5th level of the Voidclusters.
» DESCRIPTION:
Level 4, also known as "The Museum", is an infinite museum. It is composed of white walls and usually wooden floors (but other materials as rare as sand or grass have been reported), followed by paintings on the walls, sculptures and rarely historical artifacts or pottery; The origin of these objects is unknown and people report having a strange familiarity with these objects. Staring at paintings for too long in this level has been noted to cause drowsiness and sanity loss, so Oat Milk is important to have in this level. This is the only level to house Security Guards and is the only level the Artistic Explorers have settled in. Void Children are common in this level, and seem to enjoy the art. Barriers are one of the biggest obstacles in this level, and are far more common than anomalies. The lightning of the level is composed entirely by hanging lights from metal structures or pipes, it is unknown where they get their energy. On rare occasions all of the lights in this level turn off. These events are called blackouts, and during them, paintings mysteriously disappear and the museum reorients itself. When the blackout ends, paintings may cease to exist and the walls may be rearranged. Blackouts usually only last around 4 minutes, but the longest recorded blackout was around 7 minutes long. It is unknown why they occur or last this long.
» COMMUNITIES:
- The Voidcluster Investigators "Van Gogh" Outpost
A small outpost of 7 people dedicated to helping wanderers to get into Level 5 safely.
- The Artistic Explorers
A group of about 10-20 with the mission of documenting and archiving the different art pieces and expositions of Level 4. They follow the Artist Code to the letter.
» ANOMALIES:
- Sufferers
- Void Children
- Loners
- Security Guards - Anomalies exclusive to the level, and are peaceful as long as you don't break the Artist Code.
» OBJECTS:
- Oat Milk - Can be found on display, however it is not safe to drink and will cause an effect similar to looking at the paintings.
- Art Projects - Children's art projects. These are created by Void Children;
- Barriers - Often placed in front of paintings. Some people report random appearances of them in front of a painting when minutes ago there weren't any. Sometimes rooms filled with them can be found, meaning a blackout is close to happening.
» ENTRANCES:
- Making contact with a painting in Level 3 will take you to Level 4. Entering an art classroom in Level 15 has a rare chance of taking you to Level 4.
» EXITS:
- Tripping over a barrier can take you to Level 16, But the chances are low;
- Breaking open a window will take you to Level 5.
