The Madlands, named after the badlands, is the name given to a group of islands previously part of the former Realm of Madness. The Madlands are an area for Suqi to build evil things, and welcomes anyone else. It is located in northern central Land of Chaos, east of Evil Chile and south of the Viren Islands.
There are two rules in the Madlands that people must follow while there:
- Do not cause or allow damage to sculk by you, another player, a mob, or redstone-related blocks.
- Do not place light blocks on or near the ground.
The Madlands are neither a political entity nor base. They are merely a location of activity. Suqi plans to convert it all to sculk and build generally evil-looking builds, much like their plans with the Realm of Madness. However, with the Madlands, there is no stress regarding politics and statecraft from it not being a ŋation, and there is no stress regarding needing a home or keeping items far away from their other bases from it not being a base.
The Madlands have no set border. The area of activity is fluid and can change rapidly from the construction or destruction of builds, or the spreading of sculk.
Sculk Blooms
There are two sculk blooms at present, but more are planned to be created. One sculk bloom is upon the Mountain of Madness, hosting the Madlands monster farm high above. The other sculk bloom is located in the small plains biome between the swamp and windswept hills. To prevent escape of the sculk into wilderness, the main region of the Madlands was made into an island. The Cenrail station to the Madlands has been transformed into an island to prevent escape into the rest of Cenrail, and a river is planned when the sculk blooms reach far beyond any structures in the territory.
Residents
The Madlands has 48 residents. They include Suwi, Janus, a donkey, and 45 creakings.
Geography
The Madlands are home to a variety of different biomes and natural formations. These generally inform the different location names in the territory.
Weird Epicenter
The Weird Epicenter, also called the Weird-Shaped Epicenter and the Epicenter That's Shaped Weird interchangeably, is the main region of activity in the Madlands. Currently, no structures exist in any other region.
XKZKLVKZLLSSXKWLFS,X Mountain Range
The XKZKLVKZLLSSXKWLFS,X Mountain Range is a mountain range in the northwest of the Madlands containing 3 mountains: the Mountain of Madness, Chuilyng Mountain, and Jwaash:hhyngachwy Mountain. XKZKLVKZLLSSXKWLFS,X was named in order to be difficult to read, pronounce, and type.
The Mountain of Madness was named after a mountain with the same name in the TV series Ninjago. It was the first sculk bloom in the area, having begun expanding during the existence of the Realm of Madness. Today, the crest is entirely covered in sculk, having first reached the ground in early December 2025. Its sculk bloom is powered by a mob farm high in the sky which constantly drops mobs onto the sculk catalyst on one of the mountain's faces.
Chuilyng Mountain, pronounced [xujləŋ] in i-Tszon, is the tallest mountain in the Madlands, named after Khüiten Peak, Mongolia's highest peak.
Above Chuilyng Mountain floats the Jouse, Janus' House in the Madlands (not to be confused with their house in Ŋájaþáw, which has been the source of some controversy). The Jouse is a strange formation built near the monster farm made of several outdoor rooms including a maze and with long, winding single-block or parkour pathways between rooms. Notable rooms include the Piss Room and the Balls Room. This house is a major attraction and saw visitation from several players on the first day of its construction. Sq also contributed to building the Amogosroom and the Wrong Way, Doofus! Room. The official animal of the Jouse is the Herpes Ghast, who lives in an ugly house.
Jwaash:hhyngachwy Mountain, pronounced [ʔʷaːɕħəŋaːxʷə] in i-Tszon, is named after the Kabardian name for Mount Elbrus: Ӏуащхьэмахуэ, which is the highest mountain in Russia.
The Evil Left
The Evil Left is a thin strip of plains biome in the west of the Weird-Shaped Epicenter and adjacent to Evil Chile, both features from which its name came from. It is currently empty save for one sculk block placed by an unknown entity, possibly an enderman.
Active Warzone With Withers And TNT
The Active Warzone With Withers And TNT (Warzone for short) is a large plains biome in the north of the Epicenter That's Shaped Weird. It is currently empty, but named in order to strike fear in the interŋational community due to it being so close to the Maizish colony Peppuakaija, which had expressed concerns over a wither that the Madlands had previously held as a pet.
Creaking Hills
The Creaking Hills are a windswept hills biome home to the Creaking House, which is where 21 of the Madlands' creakings live. The creakings tend to spawn wander outside the house at night. It also contains a lava farm on the roof that is planned to be moved to a volcano after one is built.
The Creaking Hills is also the injection site of the Bacteriophage, which is an armadillo-powered silverfish farm to generate sculk in a third location. The farm is shaped like a myovirus bacteriophage, inspired by the injectors from Steven Universe.
Penguhmbra
Penguhmbra is the plains island where the Madlands is accessed via Cenrail. It is named after the word penumbra, meaning the edge of shadow and light, based on the song Penumbra Phantasm by Toby Fox. The penumbra name is representative of how this island is the transition between the outer world (normal; light) and the Madlands (evil; shadow). Penguhmbra is also home to Penguhmbra Donkey, a donkey that was part of a payment to the Realm of Madness by the State of Confusion for land in the Condominium of Chaos[1] that it proceeded to refuse to claim[2].
Ground Zero
Ground Zero is a plains biome in the southern Madlands that contains a variety of strange structures, such as a UWO (Unidentified Walking Object) which contained an allay-powered silverfish farm that generated sculk and a room inside to brew potions of infestation. It has since been decomissioned due to the allays drowning. Ground Zero is the second sculk bloom to be created in the Madlands, having been created after the collapse of the Realm of Madness. It also contains a bottomless pit, a ghast spawner, and an allay house.
The bottomless pit is a half-chunk hole straight down to the void.
The infamous ghast spawner of the Realm of Madness remains important in the Madlands. It uses giant portals and platforms in the nether to transport magma cubes and ghasts into the overworld as soon as they spawn. The magma cubes spawned from it are intended to be an additional source of XP for the silverfish sculk catalyst by falling into a now-sculkified box where they are killed by sweet berry bushes. However, it currently is facing issues with it appearing to not function unless chunks on the overworld and nether are loaded.
The allay house was used for breeding allays for the UWO, but abandoned after the failure of the allay-powered silverfish farm.
Exploded Swamp
The Exploded Swamp is the southwestern swamp biome. It has no structures, but has undergone a far amount of destruction from the Madlands' former pet wither and from the separation of the Epicenter That's Shaped Weird's separation from the continent.
Florida
Not to be confused with the Florida from Coldba, the country of Floriŋə, or any fakeworld locations named Florida.
Florida is a small undeveloped swamp in the southeast of the Weird Epicenter. It is named as such because it roughly looks like the state of Florida and is a swamp, and is in a place called the Madlands.
Realm of Accidents
The Realm of Accidents is a small swamp island in the southwestern Madlands that was not originally claimed as part of the territory, but was accidentally separated from the continent with TNT by Suwi and Janus because Suwi mistook the area for being part of their claim.
Realm of Sanity
The Realm of Sanity is a small plains island in the northeastern Madlands pretending to be a state. They are named as the antithesis of the Realm of Madness and preach virtues such as reasonableness, critical thinking, and beaurocracy.
Shrek's Swamp
Shrek's Swamp is a small swamp island in the east of the Madlands that is home to Shrek and his outhouse. This island used to be connected to the continent, but was separated to clearly mark borders. Shrek was not happy about this.
Poupa & Pipi
Poupa and Pipi are a pair of very small plains islands east of the Realm of Sanity. They are named after the bouba/kiki effect.
Land of Confusion
I don't know.
