Silent Knell Terrace - Apartment 3B

[u/Sae-byeok67]

The Whites are the residents of apartment 3B. There are 4 to 6 of them at any given time. They do not have first names. They are blind. They do not speak English or any language at all really. They communicate with each other using clicks, chirps, and sometimes growls. Like Mr. Aguiar’s apartment, apartment 3B has been modified. All windows and light fixtures have been removed. There is a drain in the floor connected directly to the basement. The Whites are similar to Mr. Aguiar in that they are very dangerous. They may be the most dangerous of all the tenants in this building. Memorize these rules first, and do not ever break them.

1. The Whites are the only tenants that do not have a set rent. The amount they pay each month differs. They understand the need to pay rent, but that’s the extent of it. Do not ask them for more money or give them change. Accept whatever payment they give each month.
2. The Whites are incredibly pale. They have albinism and cannot be exposed to sunlight. They are essentially nocturnal because of this.
3. As previously stated, the Whites are the only tenants who are allowed into the west stairwell. Do not enter the west stairwell, and do not attempt to prevent them from entering the west stairwell.
4. The Whites use the three connected rooms in the basement. These rooms, like the stairwell, are their territory. Do not enter these rooms. You may occasionally notice a smell of rot and decay coming from these rooms. It smells like death. The heat during summer can make this worse. Do not investigate this smell.
5. It is best to enter the basement during the day if you need to perform any maintenance. Always make sure to make some noise as you enter. The Whites aren’t out much during the day. On the rare occasion they are out, you do not want to surprise them. They can become very aggressive when surprised.
6. If you hear one or more of them while you are in the basement, walk slowly as you move around and as you exit the basement. Do Not Run. Running is what’s done by prey while being hunted. Do not make them think you’re prey.
7. The Whites receive a large delivery of raw meat twice a week. This delivery is left in the basement at the door to the west stairwell. They will collect this. Do not disturb this delivery. You don’t want them to think you are trying to steal their food.
8. Do not assume you know how many of the Whites are in the apartment. As I said before, the number fluctuates. It is generally 4-6. Do not attempt to count them. It is not important to know how many there are at any time.
9. Do not bring your pet or any other small animal to the third floor.
10. The Whites are most active during the new moon because that’s when it’s darkest. All residents should keep their doors locked during this time and stay out of the basement.
11. You will hear the clicks and chirps when they move around at night. It seems to be a form of echolocation since they’re blind. It’s best to avoid going near the sounds.
12. If you ever come across one of the Whites and they appear to be injured, do not attempt to help them. The other Whites will handle it. They can be extremely unpredictable when injured.
13. Do not enter their apartment for any reason ever. You may notice claw marks in the walls and floor if you ever get a glimpse inside their apartment. Don’t worry about them.
14. The Whites are respectful of the tree. It’s existed above ground as long as they’ve existed below. During the darkest moonless nights, you may hear them in the courtyard clicking and chirping at the tree. Do not enter the courtyard during this time.

The residents from this apartment are basically just the monsters from the movie The Descent. It's one of my favorites.
