Containment Protocols: RPC-519 events cannot be postponed, therefore the anomaly can only be contained through the use of amnestics, termination of affected subjects, and lack of public knowledge. Amnesiacs are to be administered through the local water supply, or via aircraft after the RPC-519 event has concluded. All residents that are located in the affected areas are instructed to stay indoors.
Description: RPC-519 is an anomalous event that sporadically occurs in areas with low population densities roughly every 10 years. 3 minutes after the initial activation of an RPC-519 event, an immeasurable body of mist believed to be composed of multiple anomalous materials will form over the nearby area, taking on a dark red hue.
An instance of RPC-519-1, circa 1940.
Multiple anomalous entities will begin to manifest approximately 4 minutes after RPC-519-A's initial appearance, followed by the sudden appearance of RPC-519-B: A large mother-ship like structure which RPC-519-1 instances will attempt to advance individuals towards. The approximate size of this vessel is immeasurable, however, it is hypothesized that it is able to cover approximately 27552 square meters of land, meaning that some areas will suddenly become dark regardless of the current time. RPC-519-1 entities possess the ability to interfere with nearby television broadcasts and signals, as multiple Emergency Alert System (EAS) broadcasts describing the RPC-519-1 event experience multiple visual and auditory disturbances; such as sudden messages urging individuals to go outdoors appearing, interference with audio, advising individuals to disregard the safety protocols listed by the broadcast, and manipulation of text-to-speech voices to broadcast separate messages which urge individuals to come into contact with RPC-519-A.

RPC-519-2 is an anomalous strain of complex Bacteriophage micro-organisms which can only spread when an individual has come into contact with RPC-519-A for an extended period of time. Common symptoms of RPC-519-2 infection include:
- A sudden and intense urge to spread RPC-519-2 to other uninfected individuals via attempting to persuade individuals to come into contact with RPC-519-A.
- Loss of control, brain functionality, and free will of the infected.
- Large areas of skin flaying.
- Complete immunity to death by severe malnutrition or dehydration, along with a disregard of required sustenance for survival of an average human being.
- Immunity to sleep deprivation, and the inability to rest at all.
Addendum 519-ALPHA: Below is a raw VHS recording of an Emergency Alert System 'Hazardous Materials / Contagion' hazard broadcast signaled after an RPC-519 event which occurred in the remote areas of Old Crow, Old Crow Airport, Faro, Haines Junction, and Dawson City: All of which are based in Yukon, Canada. The recording was archived on 03/██/████, and redactions have been applied where necessary. Level 4 personnel may access a redacted copy of the file while an unedited copy is available to Level 5 personnel and select members of the Research Division.
NOTICE: The audio in the video is slightly distorted. Volume frequencies can vary heavily throughout.
A transcribed version of the video attached above has been listed below. This transcribed edition should only be used if any personnel is having an issue connecting to the secure RPC database, or if any other errors occur.
VIDEO #1
<VIDEO BEGINS>
00:00: An Authority applied message reads "VIDEO LOG #1: DATE: 3/15/1990," "REDACTIONS WILL BE APPLIED WHERE NECESSARY," "LEVEL 4 PERSONNEL AND ABOVE," the Authority motto ("Research, Protection, Containment"), and in smaller text at the bottom center, "YOU ARE VIEWING THE EDITED COPY OF THIS VIDEO."
00:08: The film plays. The text "Emergency Public Warning System" is seen at the top, the text "AFFECTIVE IN THE FOLLOWING LOCATIONS: OLD CROW, YUKON, OLD CROW AIRPORT, YUKON, DAWSON CITY, YUKON, HAINES JUNCTION, YUKON, FARO, YUKON" is scrolling at the top from left to right, along with the text "CIVIL AUTHORITIES ISSUED A METEOROLOGICAL / HAZARDOUS MATERIALS WARNING." The valid EAS tone/alert is heard playing.
00:23: The tone subsides. A text-to-speech (TTS) voice resembling a middle-aged English man is heard reading out the following message: "Civil Authorities in your area have issued a severe meteorological/hazardous materials warning. Citizens have reported that a large body of mist/gas taking on a red hue has formed in the nearby area. This mist could possibly be output from a neurotoxic weapon. The effects of coming into contact with this mist include, but are most likely not limited to; large areas of skin shedding, a loss of control over brain functions, and an intense and sudden urge to breathe in more of the toxic gas, and █████████ ██████. Multiple safety protocols have been put in place and will be updated shortly. For now, all citizens in the areas of Old Crow, Yukon, Old Crow Airport, Yukon, Dawson City, Yukon, Haines Junction, Yukon, and Faro, Yukon are to stay indoors at all times. Barricade all openings to the outdoors in their homes, and disregard the wishes of any individuals outdoors attempting to bring you outdoors. All citizens must remain indoors at all times. Additionally, it is suspected that a terrorist organization is responsible for this event."
01:31: The Authority applied message at 00:00 reappears. This time, it reads "VIDEO LOG #2: DATE: 3/16/1990".
01:39: The EAS broadcast is shown once more. No changes to the text displayed at 00:08 have been made.
01:55: The TTS voice is heard. This time, it states the following: "Civil Authorities in your area have issued a severe meteorological/hazardous materials warning. An update to the weather phenomenon that was originally suspected to have occurred via attack from a terrorist organization has been issued. The accusation has been deemed false; there is no terrorist responsible for this action. To all surviving citizens, please note that the phenomenon has not subdued, and the warning that was issued yesterday still persists. The Canadian military has made it into the areas affected by this event. They will begin re-locating surviving citizens to a safe area nearby. A safe area nearby. A safe area nearby. A safe area nearby."
02:42: Another Authority applied message is seen. The video log is now "#3," and the date is now 3/1█/1990.
02:49: The EAS tone plays. No changes made to this portion of the film.
03:05: The text to speech voice is heard. It reads the following: "The previous broadcast issued was intercepted by an unknown individual. The individual responsible for this will be promptly detained and charged if found. To all surviving citizens; please note that this individual could still be breaching our systems at this very moment. It is possible that whoever is responsible for this possesses the ability to broadcast more fraudulent messages—." The TTS voice errors. A distorted version of the voice is heard stating the following: "No. They don't. This is the (inaudible). Listen carefully."
03:47: A new Authority applied message appears. This time, it is devoid of all other text besides "LEVEL 5 PERSONNEL ONLY," and "VIDEO LOG #4: DATE: 3/20/1990."
Footage beyond this point has been protected via memetic kill agent. Before continuing, verify that you are of Level 5 clearance. Unauthorized personnel are subject for termination via memetic kill agent.
Continued life signs detected. Access granted.
04:18: The film plays. Instead of the text "CIVIL AUTHORITIES" being listed, it is instead replaced with "THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT."
04:34: "Civil Authorities and Canadian Officials have issued a severe meteorological/hazardous materials warning. The following message is being broadcasted at the request of Brian Mulroney. Confirmed reports of large humanoid entities roaming the area of Old Crow have been received. These entities have been observed relocating individuals to a large aerial structure. The size of this aircraft is incredibly large, with it spanning over all affected areas listed on the screen. It is unknown how this threat will be effectively dealt with. The Canadian government is attempting to fire at the aircraft, along with help from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) which is providing images of the craft from space. The object seems to be barely visible from space due to its immense size. Reinforcements from the United States Army have been called in and will be called to action if it is deemed necessary. The Canadian military is attempting to bring all citizens to safe locations. While the threat is being neutralized, remember to follow the previously given safety protocols. Most importantly,—
05:42: The screen goes completely blank. Shortly afterward, the text "THE WARNING HAS BEEN LIFTED" appears in red.

Addendum 519-BETA: Below is a transcription of multiple journal entries written by an individual named Will Marshall. Will's belongings along with his journal were found on the edge of a nearby cliff. Will Marshall has been considered M.I.A.
<BEGIN LOG>
My name is Will. Will A. Marshall. There's no way I can explain what has happened today, so I'm writing this to anyone who shall find it. This is what I've experienced in the past 2 — almost 3 — grueling days of my life.
I'm alone. My wife and children went on holiday to Alaska (thankfully). If they come back to see me dead, hopefully, they will find this. I tried to tell them, but all our devices are jammed. Well, anyway, all of this began this morning. Do you know those new emergency broadcasts they are starting to issue of some storm comes by? Yeah, I got one of those; except this time, something was breaching the system. The voice began corrupting, broadcasting cryptic messages that insisted that the warning had been lifted and that I should go outside. Well, I kind of followed its orders and went outside; not without a hundred CAD, a mask, and this book (obviously).
It was very strange out there. The entire town of Old Crow had been dominated by this mysterious ruby-red hue. There was nobody in sight, which wouldn't be abnormal since I can quite literally count all my neighbors on my 2 hands; but this time, it was different. Something was… off.
That strange feeling of being alone quickly vanished as I walked past an obscure house I could've sworn I've never seen before. Despite the fact that… I don't know… 12 people live here or something? I was greeted by a man that yet again; I had never seen before.
He gave me a ludicrous deal; if I keep him company of all things, he will give me 50 CAD! Unsurprisingly, I took his offer (wish I hadn't now). There was something off about that man. He wanted me to go into this run-down apartment looking room of some sort. Inside, there were pages upon pages, an entire mountain of drawings of these slender gray figures in that red hue outside. He slowly turned around as I just stared in shock, and he attacked me.
I ran and ran. On the way out of the house, I heard him rambling about something. I don't know what it was, and frankly, I do not wish to know. I still don't know who that man was, or what he was doing here. He seemed as if he had been in that red hue or mist for hours. I heard on the television that it would make your skin peel away, drive you crazy, and… I'm just going to stop there. You get the point, it's really bad.
Now that I have nowhere else to go, I'm leaving this book near this cliff. I know it's not the safest spot, but it's the most likely place for someone to find it. Whoever is reading this, please, consider everything.
Anyways, I'd better get going. It just got very dark.
