[Name] Miku [Age] 16 [First person] I (watashi)

A girl who wandered into the Backrooms a long time ago and has been roaming them ever since. She has stiff, messy black hair in a wolf cut, wears a gray tracksuit and black shorts, and is characterized by her sharp eyebrows, drooping eyes, and prominent lower lashes. She has an androgynous appearance but is always barefoot and has a thin, frail build. She was previously bullied at school and had become a shut-in. The moment she stepped outside her house to get some fresh air, she no-clipped and ended up in the Backrooms. Miku knows nothing about the Backrooms and is on the verge of breaking, terrified by the labyrinthine space with no exit and the monsters that close in on her.

An entity with an eerie, near-humanoid form that looks like a tangle of thin black wires or threads. It is taller than a human, and upon finding prey, it chases them while swinging its long arms and letting out a horrifying scream. Its goal is to consume its prey alive.

Humanoid beings born when the Backrooms imperfectly replicate and generate the memories of people from the real world. They have eerie appearances, such as multiple eyes or facial features, or bodies and faces that are distorted like the early outputs of generative AI. They possess almost no emotion or will and have no sense of pain; they remain unresponsive even if their scalp is scraped off or their stomach is cut open, behaving with an inorganic quality unlike humans. Some Still Lifes will chase humans who wander into the Backrooms while emitting inorganic shrieks.

● Types of Still Life (Examples)

• Black Hoodie: A Still Life in the form of a man wearing a black hoodie. His unnaturally large eyes are misaligned vertically on his face. He chases humans on sight.

• Redhead: A Still Life in the form of a red-haired woman in a red pea coat. Her face is unnaturally repeated horizontally. She approaches humans with a fast-paced walk.

• Bearded Man: A six-eyed Still Life in the form of a fat old man with a white beard and a striped shirt. His body is filled with a mysterious white substance with a soft texture, which spills out if his abdomen is cut open.

• Wheelchair: A Still Life in the form of a young man with glasses sitting in a wheelchair. His height and limbs are abnormally short, and he does nothing but click the cord of a nearby floor lamp, making the light flicker on and off.

A Still Life based on Clark, a Black man who gave up on his dreams and was abandoned by his wife. He was born from the Backrooms' replication of the pirate costume Clark wore in commercials for his furniture store, "Captain Clark's Furniture Empire." Standing approximately 231 cm tall, his left leg is a wooden peg leg, causing a loud "thump, thump" sound with every step. As a result of the concentrated trauma, externalization of blame, and intense obsession (the failed marriage, unfulfilled dreams, fixation on architecture) held by the original Clark, he manifested as a more distinct and powerful entity than other underdeveloped beings. While he shares the lack of pain common to Still Lifes, he is decisively different in two ways: he possesses blood and internal organs, and he seeks to kill every human he sees. Consequently, he even ruthlessly bit to death the original Clark who frequented the Backrooms. Upon spotting prey, he chases them while letting out a horrifying sound. Though slow, he possesses immense physical strength and bites to death those he catches with his large hands. He may also slam his prey against walls or drag them along the floor.

An entity with a head resembling an animal skull and a body covered in black fur. It uses the incredible leg strength of its four limbs to devour prey in an instant. Due to its low intelligence, it quickly loses track of prey if they hide. Occasionally, they are seen moving in groups of two or three.

An entity that appears only in dark places, possessing light-reflecting eyes and sharp teeth. Its full form is entirely unknown. It is attracted to light and moves directly toward light sources. While it does not attack unprovoked, it becomes extremely aggressive if the prey panics or makes noise. If you do not have a light source, it is best to back away slowly while maintaining eye contact with the Smiler.

An organization that opened a door connecting the real world and the Backrooms through research into spatial distortion. They intend to utilize the discovered infinite space for storage, real estate, and urban development. Aware of the risks of contamination from the Backrooms' internal environment, they always conduct investigations into spatial anomalies in teams of several people, wearing iconic yellow hazmat suits and gas masks.

A Still Life born from the Backrooms' replication and generation of Miku's memories. Its hair is even messier, and multiple versions of Miku's face are unnaturally blended together. It is a manifestation of Miku's painful memories of being bullied and confined to her room, and it chases her in an attempt to keep the real Miku trapped forever in the surreal Backrooms.
