The Lobby is the 'first' Liminal Sub-Space within the Backrooms System, taking the form of a infinite office building with an unknown number of segmented rooms. The Lobby is is very humid, causing most if not all of the carpet on the floor to be slightly moist, this has also lead to sections of the level to be infested with various kinds of mold originating from both the Backrooms themselves and spores carried into it by unfortunate humans. Several different "segments" can be found throughout the level, often with slightly varying layouts and styles, as of now 30 of these have been discovered. Most segments are uninhabited due to their undocumented and distant nature, however some house small camps belonging to various groups.

History

• While The Lobby has likely been known of by unlucky wanderers for several millennia, its first known documentation was done in 144 by the SDSB following their entry into the Backrooms.
• A few years later following Nihilantis-Incident-149 the nations of Floria, Hayah and Lineland were sent to the limspace. Later on they were joined by others arriving from other levels. Most of these individuals left following the reversal of the incident.
• In 305 CIS operatives entered The Lobby in order to locate a mysterious signal.
• UOI Operatives managed to create a portal that led to The Lobby in 367, although all personnel sent to explore it vanished.

Demographics

The Lobby is by far the most common 'natural' point of entry into the Backrooms System. Other settlements include bases such as the Stacked Zone Camps, Station Startpoint and the Ordem of Null bases. Exiting a human settlement will make the wanderer subject to drastic mental effects, such as perpetual feelings of isolation and scopophobia.

Despite its low entity count the level is often frequented by entities classified as 'Majority' or 'Many in the entity distribution system. As of now no unique entities have been discovered within the limspace.

Assorted Camps

While the more populated settlements within The Lobby are part of established factions or administrations, there are also countless small camps established by the unlucky few that have managed to end up in The Lobby. A majority of these camps are likely completely undocumented.

Ordum of Null A & B

Ordum of Null A and Ordum of Null B are two close by camps built into a fringe section of The Lobby that are administered by the Backrooms Reorganized Explorer's Organization. While neither of them are one of BREO's most populated bases, their position in The Lobby has allowed BREO to be at the forefront of exploration in the subspace.

Point Alpha

Point Alpha is the SDSB's primary base, as well as being one of the most populated settlements in the entire Backrooms. Point Alpha is built into a barricaded section of The Lobby near a place where several of those whom accidentally noclip into The Lobby end up. Thanks to this strategic position, Point Alpha has an approximated population of nearly 56000 people. It holds many of their teams so Point Alpha has a approximate population of up to 56000 people.

Point Gamma

Point Gamma is a smaller SDSB outpost located in a more isolated section of The Lobby. This outpost is primarily used for the storage of weaponry and extra supplies.

Station Null

Station Null is a outpost of the Backrooms Military Administration built deep into The Lobby. The outpost is only capable of housing less than a hundred people, although most of its permanent population is military officials somewhat negating its low capacity. Station Null is utilised for the development of military technologies.

Station Startpoint

Station Startpoint is a colony of the Backrooms Military Administration built into The Lobby. The colony is among one of their larger settlements, housing a permanent population of roughly 200 individuals, of whom roughly 2/3 are civilians, with the rest being military units. Station Startpoint is heavily defended due to its proximity to Point Alpha.
