Registered Phenomena Code: 096
Object Class: Alpha-White
Hazard Types: Extra-Dimensional Hazard
Containment Protocols: While there are no explicit containment protocols, use of RPC-096 and derivatives are expected to abide by the following regulations:
- Under no circumstances is an RPC-096 device to be used in an area of questionable dimensional stability.
- All operators of RPC-096 devices will be expected to operate devices in an extremely cautious and precise manner.
- All personnel operating within the vicinity of an active RPC-096 device are required to wear appropriate protective apparel.
- Under no circumstances should multiple RPC-096 devices be activated within the vicinity of each other.
Any questions/complaints/concerns may be directed to Dr. Amber Treddough, head of UCA Research.
Description: RPC-096 is a Utility Composite Anomaly developed by Dr. Amber Treddough and Dr. Hemming Rutherburg. RPC-096 acts as a method of locomotion for use in machinery.
Hey, Hemming. I had an idea, hear me out. We spend our jobs here working on containing these anomalies, things that shouldn't exist by our own laws of science… I was thinking about researching the possible physical applications of these anomalies; we contain them because we, generally speaking, don't understand them, but what if we did? I have a few propositions for you, and I think you'll be keen to listen.
-Amber Treddough, Research Division
RPC-096 functions by utilizing a series of reality destabilizers to create a section of "pliable" reality. RPC-096 will then use specialized machinery to forcefully pull itself along the section of reality.
This method was determined to result in a velocity from 10-55 km/h. RPC-096 has also shown useful application for generating electricity via dynamo turbines.
Hello! I'd like to proudly present a discovery made by Dr. Amber Treddough and myself. A year ago, we embarked together to stretch the limits of human knowledge, and attempt to explain the unexplainable. We began conducting countless tests involving reality anomalies, trying to figure out how, and why, they exist. A few months ago, we had a breakthrough. By accidentally bringing two anomalies together, we witnessed, for the first time, two anomalous spaces of reality interacting with each other in a very concrete way. We discovered, that reality is a physical object that can be manipulated by very specific means. With this discovery, it rests upon me to ask of the Authority to allow us to continue research into the possibility of utilizing anomalies for productive purposes. Thank you.

RPC-096 was further developed in a compact engine for small vehicles. Following successful trials, approval was granted for use in unmanned vehicles
Listen, Amber. I know you're really intent on figuring this out, but you have to accept that they said no. We both know the responsibility our job entails. We can't just go about our own research in secret, it's irresponsible. Amber, I'm asking you to stop, before both of us lose our positions, or worse.
-Hemming
Could you be so stupid? Do you realize how important this is, and you want me to just stop because some idiots told me to? None of them realize how important this is. The only way they ever will is if I show them, and if you feel the need to stand in my way, you might as well stop working with me. I will finish this, and I will prove them wrong.

Additional effects of RPC-096 were also discovered, most notably the residual effects of the process. It has been observed that RPC-096 can occasionally cause additional dimensional anomalies in its wake.
It pleases us to announce the creation of an entirely new branch of the Research Division, the Office Of Analysis And Science, which will be headed by the esteemed Dr. Amber Treddough. Following her groundbreaking discovery in the realm of anomalies, a necessity to facilitate advanced research into anomalous effects was realized. It is by our order, that we establish this new and exciting branch. It is a regrettable shame that Dr. Treddough's collaborator Dr. Rutherburg resigned earlier this month. Regardless, congratulations to Dr. Treddough, and salutations to a new chapter in scientific progress!
-Board of Directors
Following extensive addition developmental research, a proposal to utilize RPC-096 for a variety of utilities was approved. Integration of RPC-096 generators, motors, and capacitors will begin within the next 5 years, and is expected to improve resource efficiency, as a whole.
It is with my pleasure to announce the latest development in paratechnology: Fully integrated systems, complete with the newest innovations from the Office Of Analysis And Science. Plans to replace outdated infrastructure with updated RPC-096 components have been approved, and will be implemented shortly. 3 years ago, when I started this research, I knew how important it would be for all of us. With these new capabilities and knowledge at our hand, what's there to stop us from benefiting greatly from the anomalies we strive to contain?
