* TranshumanAbomination: [[UndeadAbomination Partygoer Zero]] was once [[FromNobodyToNightmare Deacon Duncan]] before no-clipping into The Backrooms and horrifically fusing with lampreys, crustaceans and the Phobic Centipede. This killed all of them, only for the corpse to reanimate and begin a 10 day long transformation into Partygoer Zero, [[MonsterProgenitor the progenitor of the Partygoers]], their teacher in various subjects and [[KillAllHumans the one who imbued them with their hatred of humanity.]]

* AchillesHeel:
** Partygoers lose most of their senses when they turn, with touch, taste and smell being destroyed, herding reduced and vision turning nearsighted.
** Partygoers are slow, allowing a potential escape if you aren't caught in their traps.
** Partygoers communicate telepathically but must be able to see their targets to send messages, forcing them to stay near each other.



* MixAndMatchCritters: Partygoers have arms that are composites of human and lamprey. Their insides are "nightmarish conglomerations of human, Phobic Centipede and crustacean".
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: Partygoers possess thick skin like Kevlar everywhere but their main arms. [[AttackItsWeakPoint When those arms are chopped off]] a panel in their chest flies open, revealing an extra pair of clawed arms but also their weak points.
* {{Retcon}}: They were originally [[MonsterClown clown-like monsters]] who transformed people with a touch, then a term for those [[PlagueZombie infected by the sanguine festivus virus]] and most recently are multiarmed things under the command of Partyggoer Zero.

One of the most infamous entities in the Backrooms, Partygoers are tall bipedal creatures with leather-like skin who turn any survivor they touch into one of them. They have the ability to ''edit the wiki pages'', which are denoted by a =) symbol. They reside in Level Fun =), "the most fun level in the backrooms!", but can appear anywhere else.

* BalloonOfDoom: The Partygoers are often seen holding bright red balloons.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: While the Partygoers seem goofy on the surface, they are of course horrifying monstrosities.
* CurbStompBattle: Are said to have absolutely wiped the floor with the Partypoopers, rendering them extinct in a single night.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: The transformation process is strange and violent, liquifying your organs and turning your hands into mouths.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: They use fake birthday rooms to lure in victims to murder or convert into more Partygoers. But if it really is someone's birthday the Partygoers will leave them alone.
* ItCanThink: While most creatures in the Backrooms have some degree of intelligence, the Partygoers are said to easily operate complex machinery and can somehow '''[[HostileShowTakeover edit wiki pages]]'''.
* LampreyMouth: They have one at the ends of each arm, which they use to turn humans into more Partygoers.
* LeanAndMean: Are always depicted as very thin, and are some of the most intelligent and monstrous entities in the Backrooms.
* SlasherSmile: Have a cartoonish smile on their "face" at all times.
* TransformationHorror: A person who has been "latched onto" by one will slowly and painfully transform into a Partygoer over the course of an hour, though "mental changes" are near instantaneous.
* VerbalTic: Often end their edits with =) symbols.
* TheVirus: They can turn humans into Partygoers by using their LampreyMouth at the end of their arms to "latch on" to them.
* WasOnceAMan: Several of them were humans [[TheVirus turned into Partygoers]].

* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler: Before being Gaius, she used to be Gudang, a sweet if somewhat entitled girl who loved her brother and lover dearly. She pushes them too far, and said brother [[http://backrooms-wiki.wikidot.com/icarus-procidens kills her lover, who returns as an undead skeleton and kills him in return before disappearing to TH3 SH4DY GR3Y]]. Naturally, this does [[SarcasmMode wonders]] for her mental state, and she effectively kills herself to become Nostalgi Gaius, a shell crafted to move past her losses in the worst way possible: by going after innocent and defenseless humans and keeping them trapped in her world forever.]]
