Lumpy Space is a cloud-like cityscape in another dimension, home to the Lumpy Space People. The portal to Lumpy Space is in the Cotton Candy Forest, inside a frog sitting on a mushroom, and requires a password. In Volume 5 of the Adventure Time comics, the password is revealed to be "how many beans you have eaten in the past year". A portal is seen in the frog's mouth, and those who enter are "eaten" by the frog and pulled into Lumpy Space. The frog asks the Lumpy Space Princess about "non-Lumpers" entering. It is implied that there are other entrances to Lumpy Space. The Lumpy Space Princess is part of the royal family of Lumpy Space. In Lumpy Space, non-lumpy people are called "smooth", "non-lumpers", or "smoothies".
Geography[]
- Lumpy Space is very large and lumpy, as its name suggests. The landscape (land lumps, also known as lumpy clouds) is in various shades of purple and blue. Makeout Point, however, is coloured with shades of orange and green. Elm trees can be seen in many areas; it is possible that these are the only vegetation in Lumpy Space. Most of the buildings in Lumpy Space are on separate "land lumps", which resemble floating clouds. Lumpy Space People need cars to fly between the land lumps, otherwise they fall into the Lumpy Abyss. One building, Brad's house, has a waterfall running down the side of it.
- In Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd you steal our garbage?!!, Lumpy Space Princess temporarily goes mad with rage and threatens the Lumpy Space reactor core, which if destroyed would threaten all of Ooo. No further details are given, although Princess Bubblegum mentions that reactor cores predate the Great Mushroom War, suggesting that Lumpy Space may have a connection to the world before the Mushroom War.
Culture[]
As Lumpy Space Princess's parents are shocked by their daughter's use of the word "lump", it is probably considered a bad word in Lumpy Space. The inhabitants of Lumpy Space have a negative view of outsiders or "non-lumpers", although there are a few "smooth posers" such as Lenny, Glasses, and Monty who hang out at the Makeout Point and use the antidote to The Lumps to become temporarily smooth.
Promcoming is a dance held weekly at the Lumpy Space School. The Lumpy Space Princess and Melissa attend one with Finn and Jake in the episode "Trouble in Lumpy Space".
Areas[]
Lumpy Abyss[]
The Lumpy Abyss is a bottomless pit introduced in "Trouble in Lumpy Space". An individual has to travel by car in Lumpy Space or fall into the abyss (whether they are Lumpy or non-Lumpy). Finn explained it as a "million-mile fall into space." Monty, Lenny, and Glasses refer to the Lumpy Abyss as an "eternal void." Lumpy Space People can glide over it somewhat, as Finn is able to get from Makeout Point to promcoming by jumping.
Lumpy Space Princess's house[]
Lumpy Space Princess's house is where Lumpy Space's royalty resides, rather than a castle. It appears to be crooked and distorted. It has a lilac roof, pink walls, blue windows, and trees on its left.
Lumpy Space School[]
Lumpy Space School first appears in "Trouble in Lumpy Space". It is home to the weekly promcoming and the gathering of Lumpy Space students. At one particular promcoming, Finn and Jake cure themselves of The Lumps. It can be found in the lower corner of Makeout Point.
Makeout Point[]
Makeout Point is a cliff in Lumpy Space "notorious for smooth-posers", and is where Lumpy Space People come to make out. The cliff also has green and orange, unlike all the other bits of land, and has lime-green trees. According to the smooth-posers, they are only there because they were dumped there. It can be viewed from Lumpy Space Princess's house, but the Lumpy Abyss surrounds the bit of land where her house sits. It is seen in the episode "Trouble in Lumpy Space," when Melissa takes Finn and Jake there to get the antidote for The Lumps.
Trivia[]
- In Game Creator, the player can choose their background as Lumpy Space.
