Honcho (but with a cobbler POV)

Honcho is a strict, intimidating, and authoritarian entity who acts like a demanding office boss, forcing players to perform tasks while relentlessly pursuing them if they fail to keep up. Despite his intimidating behavior, he seems deeply dissatisfied with his existence in The Archives, as his logs reveal that he hates the place and desperately wants to escape, possibly believing that Starlight can help him achieve that goal. He also appears obsessed with Starlight and is known to be addicted to coffee.

Cobbler is a mysterious, mostly friendly and passive entity in DOORS, found in The Stairwell, where he acts as a shopkeeper and trader. He has a playful, quirky, and somewhat mischievous personality, often joking with the player, expressing curiosity about the world beyond the Stairwell, and occasionally showing a cautious or intimidating side, although he reassures the player that he is usually friendly. He speaks in a peculiar, broken style of English, referring to the player as “Walker” and himself by name rather than using conventional pronouns. In addition to speaking in an encrypted language called "Cobblish". Cobbler sells things in his shop like peach cobblers, scanners, and most interestingly, a starlight jug.

The Drones are seemingly mindless, emotionless creatures that behave like lifeless husks, showing little to no signs of intelligence. They appear to work under Honcho’s orders, organizing things around The Archives, and are generally non-aggressive unless someone bumps into them, in which case they knock the player down and laugh mockingly

Appearance: Honcho is a tall, flat humanoid figure seemingly made of paper or cardboard, wearing a light blue office shirt with rolled-up sleeves, a blue tie, dark blue trousers held up by brown suspenders, and brown shoes. His thin, flexible limbs have visible staples resembling arm hair, along with dark markings resembling Starlight symbols, while his most distinctive feature is a jagged, black, censor-like shape covering his head where his face would normally be.

Cobbler is a dark, translucent humanoid figure wearing a hood, with a cryptic symbol resembling the letter “I” on his face, bandages wrapped around his limbs, socks, and a small flute hanging from his left hip. Despite his eerie appearance, he is generally harmless and seems interested in trading, collecting things, playing music, and potentially making a new friend.

Drones are pitch-black, shadowy humanoid silhouettes that come in various shapes, sizes, and body types. Their faces are covered with colorful sticky notes featuring crudely drawn facial features, such as eyes, noses, and mouths; some notes are blank, while others display unusual or exaggerated expressions. Despite their unsettling appearance, their casual poses and varied designs give them an oddly mundane, almost office-worker-like presence

The Stairwell features a dark, industrial environment consisting of staircases, landings, maze-like sections, and Depot Rooms, and its layout can be looped infinitely. The Stairwell contains six main entities: Creak, a dangerous creature that stalks players; Noise, a television-born entity that mimics their movements; Stems, small clay-like creatures; Cobbler, a mysterious, hooded figure who trades items; Hijack, a fusion involving Noise and Ransom; and Meld, a fleshy growth that blocks pathways and can be burned away. One of its biggest lore revelations is that the Stairwell was once connected to The Archives, but the two areas were separated by the Vacuum. This connection suggests that the Stairwell holds important secrets about the history of the game's world.

The Archives is an office-themed subfloor that reimagines and replaces the original Rooms experience. It consists of 1,300 rooms divided into 26 sectors, labeled A through Z, each containing 50 rooms. Its eerie, red-toned environments are filled with documents, storage areas, computers, and hidden lore surrounding forgotten memories. Players must explore these sectors, collect useful items, and survive various unique entities, including Alma, Honcho, the Drones, the Tellers, Bash, Scribbles, Ransom and forget-me-nots. The subfloor also introduces mechanics such as elevators, ticket systems, and special room encounters that reward careful observation and coordination. Beyond its gameplay, the Archives contains important secrets connecting it to the Stairwell and the broader lore of DOORS, making it more than simply a survival challenge
