Climbers (Faction)

The Climbers are a faction inside the r9k apartments that spends most of their time climbing to the top of the apartments using the wall surrounding them. Many different methods of getting to the top have been attempted, most ending up in catastrophic failure and quick death due to lack of resources and weakness. Some speculate that this was indeed the first faction to appear inside the r9k apartments as the method of avoiding most inhabitants is appealing to a large number of denizens long after the early "Ground Floor Chaos Phenomenon". Most of the known faction usually spend more time inhabiting the lower floors preparing heavily for the endless journey to the Final Floor rather then actually claiming due to "The Speed Phenomenon" where Climbers seem to avoid others especially after floor 1000 and begin to turn insane followed by a number of other symptoms not well known to preparing Climbers. Most climbers pack climbing gear, foodstuffs, and drugs and other medical tools and items to assist them with the journey up. A few Climbers have been known to reach high floors only to attach long ropes to assist other Climbers in easing the exhausting journey. This at times leads to mass executions as some denizens of the r9k apartments cut these rope to watch Climbers fall to there deaths. The journey of a Climber seems to be the safest way up to the Final Floor to most as it avoids Mutants entirely, however it is a lonely and exhausting one regardless.
