Hyperborea is a remote jungle settlement founded by getplayerhead.sh?Histy_Histamine&16.png Histy_Histamine, alongside getplayerhead.sh?Adora_The_Witch&16.png Adora_The_Witch, on 4 November 2022. The settlement is known for its brick roads running through the entire jungle, serving as a connection between its four jungle temples. The southwestern district—also dubbed the Old Town—is by far the most popular and densely built area of the settlement, but is despite that still relatively thinly built, due to Histy being hellbent on maintaining the natural looks of the jungle, and minimizing the amount of trees that have to be cut. It should come to no surprise then that finding an empty, flat spot large enough for any structures to be built on is not an easy feat. The rest of Hyperborea mostly consists of brick roads, with a handful of structures connected to them.

Throughout the settlement are large statues of Touhou characters, all of which are facing the ocean. Currently, the character statues that have been built so far, in the order that they were built, are as follows:

  1. Flandre Scarlet
  2. Remilia Scarlet
  3. Yukari Yakumo
  4. Sakuya Izayoi
  5. Suika Ibuki
  6. Cirno
  7. Hong Meiling
  8. Chen & Nazrin

Another notable feature of Hyperborea is its naturally-generated, treeless line that runs through it's entire latitude. It's unclear what caused it to generate like this, but something similar can be seen at its southern chunk borders.

Points of Interest

Hyperborea Headquarters

Hyperborea's headquarters, located in the Old Town. One of its four temples, and the place where it all started, all the way back in 2022. While this is the only temple in Hyperborea to have received any significant overhaul, it still maintains the spirit of the original. Even to this day, it still acts as the primary base of operations of its founder.

Hyperborea Station

Located under the beaches of the Old Town, in front of Hyperborea's headquarters. For the time being, there is no direct path to enter the train station from the surface. As such, the only way in and out of the station is via lift, located at the intersection between the storage unit, and the headquarters.

Tower of Guns

Named after the Tower of Guns, from Tower of Guns, minus the guns (although, you're free to pretend there are). This tower, located in the Old Town, behind Flandre Scarlet, is the first, and only, structure in Hyperborea to go past Y128. Reaching Y253, (Y254, if you count the torches at the top) it is by far the tallest structure in all of Hyperborea, and can be seen from virtually anywhere within the Old Town. Aside from acting as a monument, and an observation deck, the tower does not really serve a particular function. People who want to get to the top of the tower can do so by either taking the stairs, the ladder, or the lift. The tower is commonly used as a BASE jumping spot, into the water below.

Underground Map Room of Hyperborea

Located two floors under getplayerhead.sh?Adora_The_Witch&16.png Adora_The_Witch and getplayerhead.sh?frisout&16.png frisout's methamphetamine lab, this underground map room contains a huge wall map of the Hyperborean peninsula, and the surrounding area. The map measures 12 x 11, for a total of 132 filled maps. Most false positive grief alerts from Histy come from here, whenever she breaks her own /up glass, after updating higher parts of the map. The map room can be reached via a staircase going underground. There is a lounge for people upstairs as well. The idea of building a staircase between the underground map room and the train station has been considered, but so far it has not been built yet.
