"Don't look away, just keep your eyes on it. Contain it in your sight."
- The Burrowing Heaven's Entry
The Burrowing Heaven (O-04-72) is an Abnormality similar in form to a leafless red tree, having a stalk coming from the floor and red two skeletal wing-like extremities that branch into minor parts. Its main body is of a red color. In the junction where the three main parts meet, it has a yellow eye with a red iris, as well as smaller eyes on other parts of its body. The branches seem to be made out of red flesh and the tips of branches are dark-red spikes, seem to be entirely covered in blood.
Ability[]
Burrowing Heaven's ability triggers when its Qliphoth Counter reaches 0. Its
Qliphoth Counter can fluctuate in the following ways:
- Decrease by 1 every 10 seconds it is off screen while agent is working on it.
- Increase by 1 when getting a
Normal Work Result.
- Increase by 2 when getting a
Good Work Result.
Besides reducing the Qliphoth Counter, while it is off screen, it will also force the
Success Rate to be 0%, making the work only produce NE-boxes.
When the Qliphoth Counter is depleted, The Burrowing Heaven will breach with its 'wings' extended and 800
HP. If there is an employee in the containment room, the Abnormality will instantly kill them. The Abnormality doesn't attack when it is on camera and only moves when 3 seconds pass out of camera. If it isn't on camera, it will teleport to a random room with employees in them (Priority to Agents). If the room that it left had employees or other entities, it will inflict a heavy amount of
Black Damage (150) to all the targets in there. If it kills employees, it will leave their 'fruits' after screams; similar entities of itself will hold different parts of the dead employee on their branches. These entities aren't dangerous. It will usually teleport into the middle of the main rooms and near the sides of the other rooms, like hallways.
It will remain breaching until suppressed or the day ends.
Origin[]
Its origin is currently unknown.
Details[]
The Burrowing Heaven responds to the four works in order of best to worst: Attachment,
Repression,
Insight and
Instinct.
Like all Abnormalities, its energy output is determined by the number of PE Boxes (Positive Enkephalin boxes) at the end of the interaction.
The Burrowing Heaven's emotional state is divided into 3 sections: Bad,
Normal, and
Good. Completing 0-12 E Boxes will cause it to feel
Distressed, completing 13-20 will cause it to feel
Normal, and 21-24 will make it
Happy. Its usual cooldown timer after a task is around 15 seconds. Its
Qliphoth Counter is 3.

Story[]

The Burrowing Heaven's encyclopedia portrait
- "A thorny Abnormality that feeds on the gaze of others and sometimes stretches its wings."
- "Don't look away, just keep your eyes on it.
- It lives inside your gaze.
- The containment is but a facade.
- Contain it in your sight.
- Blinking is okay.
- It will tolerate such a brief moment of disruption.
- However, once it recognizes that it lost your attention and focus…
- It will spread its wings. Yes, wings.
- As if to praise a long-forgotten god, its lean, bloody wings will stretch and cover the whole corridor.
- The wings still bear fruit, using fresh corpses as food.
- If it still fails to gain your attention, the stalks will pierce the facility and grow toward a sunny spot.
- Like an angel, its wings will reach the skies and extend toward the ground, eventually blocking the sun out.
- But there is still hope.
- When you finally turn your eyes and bring it within your cognizance…
- It will return to this deep, dark subterranean area.
- That is, if you managed to survive by then."
- "That's what a gaze is. Attention.
- An invisible string that connects us.
- Sole focus.
- Do not come here, as there is no place for you to rest.
- But you see, I could only bear fruit when I stood inside your sight.
- Is this what you wanted to see?
- When your tears dry up at last, tell me your answer."
Flavour Text[]
- "The Burrowing Heaven lives inside the target’s eyes."
- "The Burrowing Heaven grows thorns aimed for heaven inside <name>’s vision."
Trivia[]
- This Abnormality and Schadenfreude are the only Abnormalities to use the screen as a condition for their abilities in this version.
- If there are no living employees to teleport to, or if the only living employee is in Shelter from the 27th of March, this Abnormality won't teleport anywhere, and will instead deal 75
Black Damage to itself, eventually recontaining itself.
- If this Abnormality teleports to a room that is currently being observed it will not damage any employee while still damaging itself, however, this can only occur when all Agents are located in the same room.
