Portraits.

✏ Portraits in Décollage function the way they did in Mario 64, for those of us old enough to remember that. For those that aren’t, basically that means they’re doorways into portrait worlds! You jump into one, you jump into the world (usually) depicted in that portrait. NPCs hold games inside their own portraits. However, like in the game where you had to have enough stars in order to be able to enter one, the portraits are not always open to being entered.

Dormitories. Each team dormitory is located inside a portrait. Team dorms are kept locked or opened by passwords. Teams can change their passwords whenever they want, and whoever knows the password can enter. However, if someone not on the team attempts to change the password, it won’t work.

The Drop Mural. A large mural that has no associated NPCs, that sometimes characters disappear into, staying in a limbo state until it spits them back out again. It shows a room with all the currently dropped characters sleeping, peacefully. A plaque below it labels it “The Bigger Picture”.

Description: The portrait is a young boy with red hair and blue eyes, dressed regally, wearing a tarnished silver crown. He has a big grin on his face. He's sitting on a throne, lavish and elegant and much too big for him, and he's sitting on it informally - turned to one side, legs hanging over one armrest. A scepter is lying on the ground near one of his hands - but he's not holding the scepter, because he's holding a bone in that hand. In his other hand he holds a knife.

Gallery:
It may be the most “complete” native area, but it’s still far from neat and ordered. The mazelike halls may stay the same, but the art installations aren’t always where you last recall seeing them. The dorm portraits stay consistent, but the other portraits frequently swap contents. (Though the more observant may notice that the frames remain the same) Velvet ropes randomly block off areas, and though you can ignore them and step underneath, you might find yourself exiting the hallway anyway, having been looped back around. Despite how random the ropes’ placement seems though, there might be a purpose behind them. . .

It’s currently impossible to reach the center.

Carquarium: In the relatively large empty area by the Shell dorm painting, there’s a piece of what might be someone’s idea of modern art. It’s a pink cadillac limo with it’s windows rolled up that has been filled with water and small aquarium fish.
