The Melancholic Plane is

The Surface

The surface of the Melancholic Plane.

The Melancholic Plane's surface is an endless, flat field of snow. Despite appearing to be identical to typical snow, the snow in the Melancholic Plane is almost entirely composed of Almond Water. The snow can be dug into with relative ease, allowing wanderers to progress downward at a decently rapid rate. The surface extends approximately 720 feet deep.

The Caves of Ice

The Caves of Ice are a region in the Melancholic Plane that is accessed after a wanderer digs through the entirety of the surface. This region is composed of tight, icy caves, extending infinitely downward. The Hall of Consequences, although rare to encounter, may be located while traversing the caves.

The Hall of Consequences

The Hall of Consequences is a rarely encountered infinite hallway, composed entirely of ice. Crevices are frequently found in the walls, showcasing ice sculptures of wanderers who had passed away at some point in their Backrooms journey. Physical contact with these sculptures will immediately transport one to the exact location in which the depicted wanderer had passed. Doing so is not recommended.

Entrances and Exits

Entrances

The only way to access the Melancholic Plane is by experiencing deep sadness of any form at any point. This, in rare cases, will transport wanderers to the Melancholic Plane.

Exits

The Melancholic Plane has two possible exits:

  • The standard exit is when wanderers no longer feel the emotions that brought them to the Melancholic Plane in the first place. This will return the affected wanderer to the level they were in prior to entrance.
  • The less common (and ill-advised) exit is to make physical contact with a sculpture in the Hall of Consequences. This will transport wanderers to the location of a previous wanderer's death.
