RPC-275 At 11:00PM

Registered Phenomena Code: 275

Object Class: Beta-Red

Hazard Types: Animated-Hazard, Ecological Hazard, Organic Hazard, Sapient Hazard, Transmutation Hazard, Biohazard, Contact Hazard, Temporal Hazard, Mind-Control Hazard

Containment Protocols: RPC-275 is to be contained inside a 1-kilometer electric fence. The Authority site on the island is to never to be staffed by any personnel. The island on which RPC-275 is located is to be blockaded by Authority ships at all times. RPC-275 can be left alone for an extended period of time, however, it should be occasionally visited during a Class-E-Event for basic maintenance. No personnel are to ever come within 3 kilometers of RPC-275 before its usual day cycle starts. Any attempts by personnel to communicate with RPC-275 without explicit permission is to be met with restrainment and immediate termination, unless under the pretense of an experiment. If RPC-275-1 is seen performing a Class-A event, A priest of either the Catholic, Greek Orthodox or Anglican faith are to be dispatched in order to communicate with RPC-275-1 instances. Any unauthorized interaction between the dispatched priest and RPC-275-1 instances are to be met with Class A-1 amnestics, or termination, depending on the degree of infractions.

Description: RPC-275 is a 15th-century fountain of unknown origins, found 7 kilometers off the west coast of Guatemala on an uninhabited island. The island is undetectable by any modern means, including sonar, satellite imagery, or even ████. The island itself is memetic in nature, as the discovery of the island is impossible by personnel not actively aware, or physically searching for the island. As a result, the island was not fully discovered or contained by the authority until 19██.

The many creatures and plants found within the island are identical to their mainland counterparts. However, they are biologically immortal, still subjected to death by other means, but can live biologically forever. It is currently unknown what causes this effect, but it is anomalous in nature, as new animals introduced to the island do not inherit the same effect. The age of the island itself is also unknown, as any soil samples taken from the island will instantly disintegrate. However, carbon dating Prunus avium¹ trees found on-site have revealed that they biologically, over 100 thousand years old.

At the center of the island, is a 15th-century fountain of unknown origin. The fountain appears to be visibly damaged from the bottom up, as it is not physically connected to the ground. However, it stays at a constant height of precisely 1.2 meters off the ground, regardless of the environment around it. It is impossible to move RPC-275 from its current location, any attempt of physical contact with the anomaly will be met with a Class-B event, See Class-B-Event For Further Details.

RPC-275 appears to be made up of impure marble, lacking a specific texture. In the middle of the fountain is a cupid angel carrying a vase. Below the main fountain, rests a stone tablet which has the same texture as the fountain itself. From time to time the text on the tablet will change, always in a way according to both its current situation and always directed to personnel physically on the island. The tablet will appear to be printed with what seems to be nonsensical writings. However, at random intervals and during both Class-A and Class-B events the tablet will change. Instead to be written in what appears to be ancient Latin.

RPC-275 between the hours of 1pm and 7pm on every day of the week, excluding Sundays and Class-F events, is completely static unless physically contact is made. At 7pm the anomaly will begin to show activity for the next 5 hours. The activity shown is documented in: RPC-275's Average Daily Cycle

RPC-275-1

Registered Phenomena Code: RPC-275-1

Object Class: Alpha-Red

RPC-275-1 Instance During A Class-B-Event.

Hazard Types: Aggression Hazard, Grouped Hazard, Organic Hazard, Sapient Hazard

Containment Protocols: RPC-275-1 is self-containing, making removal both impossible, and unnecessary.

Description: RPC-275-1 is a collection of identical entities manifested by RPC-275 during a Class-A, Class-B, and Class-F events. RPC-275-1 are inherently hostile humanoids that protect RPC-275 from physical damage and disturbances. RPC-275-1 instances, when summoned, will relentlessly chase the personnel responsible for the disturbance of RPC-275. Once summoned, RPC-275-1 instances will "lock-on" to a specific person, once a specific person is chosen, it will chase down its targets. Once within melee distance, RPC-275-1 will insert its claw-like appendage into the victim's chest cavity, de-manifesting for precisely 15 seconds with the body of its victims. After this, there is a chance that RPC-275-1 will re-manifest, depending on whether further personnel RPC-275-1 deems as "responsible" for RPC-275's disturbance are present. If no personnel responsible for the disturbance are present, RPC-275-1 instances will then de-manifest within 15 minutes.

It is impossible for RPC-275-1 instances to be removed from RPC-275. Given the chance to freely roam RPC-275, instances will always remain on the island, regardless of personnel responsible for a disturbance. If physically captured and forced off the island, the RPC-275-1 instance will simply de-manifest. If an RPC-275-1 instance is pursuing victim right before RPC-275's usual daily cycle, RPC-275-1 will immediately de-manifest.

RPC-275-1 instances have been observed to have a limited understanding of human speech. To normal personnel, however, RPC-275-1's vocal dialogue is nonsensical. Yet, personnel who have been ordained by an apostolic Bishop of the Christian faith report on hearing perfect dialog within their native language. RPC-275-1, however, will not converse with ordained priests, unless during a Class-A-Event. Otherwise, RPC-275-1 will treat the ordained priest as it would any other personnel. (See Interview-Log For Further Details.)

RPC-275's Average Daily Cycle

7 p.m.: RPC-275 will start its active phrase with the words “Gloria In Excelsis Deo”², which will be anomalously heard by all who physically occupy the island. The anomaly will then begin to bubble perfectly clean, non-anomalous drinking water. Personnel on the island will begin to experience time distortion, with a few seconds of time off the island, being days, or even years on the island during the event. At this point, personnel will begin to experience a placid state of mind, with all of their previous thoughts, or immediate actions before the event being completely forgotten and/or ignored. Personnel on-site during this event describe the event as “Calm” or “Peaceful.” Affected personnel will anomalously walk towards RPC-275. Before 8 p.m., all personnel on the island will sit in a circle formation, with RPC-275 being at the center.

After this point, until the end of RPC-275’s final phase at 12 p.m., transportation of personnel to and from the island will become impossible. If relocation on to, or off of the island is attempted at this time, the island will simply not manifest. As a result, no personnel are to be allowed on the island after the hour of 7 p.m., until the end of the activity at 12 a.m.

8 p.m.: RPC-275 will then start the next phase of its activity pattern with the phrase “Gloria Patri”³ being heard by all affected personnel. Personnel will then have an anomalous hallucination, perfectly emulating the events of the Torah, or the old testament, in real-time. Personnel will experience biblical events from a 3rd-person perspective, including the creation of the universe, the story of Cain and Able, and the life of Moses. Personnel describes this stage of the event as “Informative” “Destructive” and “Righteous”.

After the hallucination ends, the Cupid on RPC-275 will open its eyelids. Revealing two perfectly normal, non-anomalously human eyes with a blue tint. The cupid will then begin to flap its marble wings approximately 6 times, before resting. It will then fly off of the fountain, and vanish into the sky, the fountain will then stop emitting water at exactly 8:59 p.m.

9 p.m.: RPC-275 will then begin to emit a liquid, which, after further tests, has been confirmed to be a perfect liquid combination of Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh. The next phase of RPC-275 will start with subjects anomalously hearing the words “Christus Natus Est”⁴ at which point, subjects will experience another hallucination. However, this time, subjects will experience the life of Jesus of Nazareth from a third-person perspective. From his birth in a first-century manger, to his early life living in exile in what appears to be ancient Egypt, to his death, and resurrection. However, near the end of the hallucination subjects will see a continuation of the story in the bible. Right after the resurrection of Christ, an angel comes down from the heavens, informing Jesus's 12 apostles that they and all of humanity is irredeemable, the 12 will then begin to weep, before the end of the hallucination.

Once the anomalous hallucination ceases, RPC-275 will then cease emitting the liquid combination at exactly 9:59 p.m.

10 p.m.: At this point, starting at exactly 10:00 p.m., the Cupid that formally flew into the sky at 8:00 p.m. will come crashing down the earth, hitting the ground with a thud, visibly damaging the soil below it. The Cupid statue will be in complete ruin, except the head, which will float anomalously, and fall directly into the fountain. Personnel will then anomalously hear the phrase "Si Deus Me Relinquit Ego Deum Relinquo"⁵ At which point, RPC-275 will become visibly distressed, violently shaking and twitching; RPC-275 will develop a light red tint. The fountain will then begin to emit blood from both the fountains faucet and the orifices of the decapitated head of the Cupid. Subjects have reported feeling a deep, existential fear, which appears to be anomalous in nature. At 10:59, RPC-275 will cease emitting blood.

11 p.m.: Subjects will then anomalously hear "Non Potest Esse Nisi Unum."⁶ at which point, all subjects will experience a Class-B-Event, with a single RPC-275-1 instance manifesting for each present subject. The RPC-275-1 instances will begin to seek-out personal until only one manages to fend-off the manifestations longer than all the other present subjects. Once only one subject remains, with all other subjects being killed and de-manifested with their respective RPC-275-1 instances, the remaining RPC-275-1 instances will de-manifest at exactly 11:50 p.m. At which point, the remaining subject will undergo one last, final hallucination. It is currently unknown what the subject sees in the finial hallucination, as all remaining subjects will not foreclose what they saw, even under the threat of termination. As a result, the final hallucination created by RPC-275 has been classified as a Class-C-Info-Hazard.

12 a.m.: The single remaining subject will hear the phrase "Sanguis Tuus Erit Capta, Et Sanguis: Et Data Est Vobis"⁷ at which point, RPC-275 will emit a light white-colored liquid. When consumed, Subjects will be healed from any injury or sickness. At which point, the subject will age backward, carbon dating has shown that the cells in the subject's body will age to be exactly 20 years old, regardless of the subjects physical, or mental age. Once the liquid is consumed, RPC-275 will become static. Not becoming active again, unless during a Class-B-Event, or the next daily cycle.

Events Class A/F

Event Class A: On purely random occasions, RPC-275 has been shown manifesting RPC-275-1 instances without any visible disturbance to the fountain itself. The instances are inherently docile, unless provoked, in which case RPC-275-1 will resuming its usual behavior. Unlike under Non-Class-A-Events, it is possible for RPC-275-1 instances to communicate with ordained apostolic priests. Instances, although docile, will speak in a passive-aggressive manner, often, in parables or rhymes. Class-A-Events are extremely rare, with only two examples recorded since RPC-275's discovery in 19██. As a result, in the event of a Class-A-Event, personnel are to get an apostolic priest on-site as quickly as possible. If the RPC-275-1 instance is not interacted with in any way, it will de-manifest as normal within 2 hours.

Event Class B: Class-B events have only been observed before or right after RPC-275's active phase, triggered by any entity interacting with RPC-275. RPC-275 will manifest a single RPC-275-1 instance. If the single instance fails to remove the threat, RPC-275 will summon another instance every 3 minutes with the current recorded maximum being █28 instances. RPC-275-1 instances progressively get stronger the longer they remain manifested, with a recorded lifting strength of ████-Tons while being manifested for only 2.5 hours. RPC-275 itself has been recorded conversing with the physical disturbance, regardless of the disturbance's sentience.

Event Class C: During a solar eclipse that is visible while on RPC-275, a Class-C-Event will occur. During a Class-C-Event, RPC-275's usual cycle will be extended by a period of time congruent to the time light is absent caused by the eclipse. During this extended period of time, RPC-275 will act strangely relaxed in its behavior and speech. Actively speaking in a relaxed tone and with the softer wordage. RPC-275 has even been recorded speaking directly to victims during an eclipse, proclaiming "Deus Lux Est Absentis!"⁸ However, when the light of the sun returns from the eclipse, RPC-275 will appear to be visibly stressed, stating "Quod Lux Non Reliquit Me?"⁹ At which point, RPC-275 will cease its current cycle, instead manifesting 10 RPC-275-1 instances, triggering a normal Class-B-Event.

Event Class D: On a fairly uncommon basis, RPC-275 will converse with the nearest possible subject on the month of June before its usual cycle. At which point, RPC-275 will converse with the subject on any matter of things, including, but not limited to:

• Art
• Music
• Singing
• Fashion
• Relationship Advise

Any attempt by the subject to bring up any of the following subjects will result in RPC-275 completely ignoring the question, or delivering a clearly wrong/sarcastic answer:

• Religion
• Jesus
• Holiness
• Love
• Hope

If the subject ever says the word "God", or its equivalents, RPC-275 will cease conversing with the subject, and activate a Class-B-Event identical to normal Class-B-Events.

Event Class E: On Sundays, RPC-275 will remain completely inactive. The entity will not show any anomalous qualities. All RPC-275-1 instances manifested before-hand will de-manifest at the strike of 12:00 am alongside the sounds of faraway bells. The bells will continue for exactly 1 minute, then RPC-275 will resume normal activity.

Event Class F: On Christmas Day, RPC-275 will begin with anomalous chanting being heard by all personnel during its inactive phrase the words "Christus Natus Est?"¹⁰ in 10 second intervals. However, once RPC-275 enters its usual active phase, RPC-275 will instead scream over and over again in 10-second intervals "Deus Meus! Quare Dimisistis Hominem?"¹¹ at 170 decibels, enough to make subjects permanently deaf over the course of 2 minutes of exposure. At 12:00 p.m., the screaming will stop, with the words "Cimus, Guod Suus 'Sero Nimis!"¹² being heard anomalously by all personnel. At which point, all personal will anomalously regain their hearing to their Pre-Class-G-Event-State. It will then begin to snow despite the regional weather and tropical climate.

Reactionary Measures: RPC-█████ will no longer be allowed contact with CSD personnel without supervision.

Interview Log

Interviewed: [RPC-275-1]

Interviewer: [Father █████]

Foreword: [During a Class-A event, an RPC-275-1 instance was manifested. Father █████ of the Greek Orthodox faith was dispatched to attempt communication, this is their recorded interaction, translated from Greek.]

<Begin Log, [4/3/19██ 8:33 AM]

Father █████: [Can you understand me?]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, what business does thou have with me?]

Father █████: [I have been sent by the Authority to conduct an interview on their behalf, I…..{Interrupted}]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, I shalt answer thy questions to expand thy organizations knowledge! You have pleased Apollyon! You battle the light of the evil one like your brethren!]

Father █████: [To start, who is this "Apollyon" you speak of?]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, he is the great resister. Fighting against our creator, the evil one.]

Father █████: [Wait, so you serve the fallen?]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, how can one fall, when he haven't landed?]

Father █████: [Let me phrase that another way, why are you here?]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, the evil who has created us confined us to this physical form.]

Father █████: [Who is this "evil one" you speak of?]

{At this point, RPC-275-1 appears to be visibly distressed, shaking violently and turning a dark shade of red.}

RPC-275-1: [O, FATHER OF THE CHURCH OF THE GREEKS, IS THOU BLIND? CAN THOU NOT SEE THE EVIL ONE ALL AROUND YOU? HIS LIGHT PENETRATES THE DARKEST CAVE, HIS TOUCH BRISTLES EVERY BLADE OF GRASS! HE IS HERE AND EVERYWHERE, ALWAYS. HE IS THE SMILE ON A CHILD'S FACE, HE IS THE TEARS OF YOUR MOURNING FATHER, CAN'T YOU SEE YOU FOUL?]

Father █████: [Is this "Evil One" you speak of ████████]

{At this point, RPC-275-1 appears to visibly calm-down.}

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, he goes by many a name, he is, however, who you speak of.]

Father █████: [Why do you hate this "Evil One?"]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, we hate him, because he is right.]

{RPC-275-1 appears to once again become visibly distressed, so, Father █████ was ordered to change the flow of the conversation.}

Father █████: [Do you, uh, have a name?]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, all things have a name, however, you can call be me what thee wish.]

Father █████: [Ok then, where do you go when you de-manifest RPC-275-1?]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, I have not a physical body, besides what you see before you.]

Father █████: [Ok then……., where do you come from?]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, does thou mean before our imprisonment, or where we exist before we manifest before you.]

Father █████: [The latter.]

RPC-275-1: [O, Father of the Church of the Greeks, I have not told you? We have not a physical body, we simply exist!]

Father █████: [Ok then, why do you kill people who attempt to disturb RPC-275?]

{With this question, RPC-275-1 began to lash out and make threatening gestures to Father █████.}

RPC-275-1: [O, FATHER OF THE CHURCH OF THE GREEKS, WE MUST HAVE BEEN MISTAKEN, YOU ARE NOT LIKE US, YOU ARE WITH THE EVIL ONE! TO KILL, IS TO SHOW MERCY. WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH WITH YOU, SERVANT OF THE EVIL ONE!]

{The RPC-275-1 instance demanifested}

<End Log, [[4/3/19██ 9:45 AM]]

Closing Statement: [It would seem RPC-275-1 instances react poorly to questioning their moral actions. Another ordained apostolic priest is to be ready for deployment at all times, in the case of another Class-A event.]
