Registered Phenomena Code: 735
Object Class: Beta-Orange
Hazard Types: Aggression Hazard, Animated Hazard, Mechanical Hazard, Organic Hazard, Sapient Hazard, Sentient Hazard, Mind-Regression Hazard
Containment Protocols: RPC-735 is to be contained a minimum of 50 meters away from any other anomalies contained on-site. Access to RPC-735's chamber is strictly prohibited. Containment staff should be observant of any appearance of LO-114, and attempt to confiscate it remotely upon sighting.
Description: RPC-735 is a conglomerate of LO-112, LO-113, LO-114, LO-115, and LO-116. The former documentation on these objects can be seen below.
Designation: LO-112
Description: A rubber duck.
Site Location: Site-027
Properties: LO-112 functions identically to a rubber duck unless buried in any substance with similar consistency to soil. When provided with water, LO-112 will sprout a small tree with red bark and yellow, duck-shaped leaves. In addition, a single new instance of LO-112 will be grown from the tree, falling from the tree a day after blooming.
Designation: LO-113
Description: 2 Spot-brand quadrupedal utility robots identical in appearance to those produced by Boston Dynamics.
Site Location: Site-027
Properties: LO-113-1 and -2 mimic the behavior of a domesticated cat. They function without power and are generally friendly to the staff they interact with. The claw arm attached to the top of the robots functions independently of the main body. It will attempt to "bite" anything that gets close that it perceives to be alive. The claw arm is equipped with a muzzle to prevent any injuries when dealing with LO-113.
Designation: LO-114
Description: A quill.
Site Location: Site-027
Properties: LO-114 is a writing quill that, when ink is applied, is capable of writing in air, or what has been dubbed "3D writing" by some staff. Anything drawn with this ink will be fully functional as if it were made of ordinary materials. However, LO-114 is unable to be used to create weapons such as guns and swords. Attempting to do so will still create an object that can be interacted with, but any gun will not shoot and any sword will not cut. The cause of this is still unknown.
Designation: LO-115
LO-115 in an inactive state
Description: A colonial organism resembling sand.
Site Location: Site-027
Properties: LO-115 is a colonial organism that resembles a pile of sand when inactive. The individual grains of LO-115 are also identical in appearance to a grain of sand, with the exception of the presence of an elytra-like structure. When in need of food or needing to move for other reasons, the entire colony will open their elytra and unfurl insect-like wings. The colony moves as a single mass, and moves in a similar manner to how a jellyfish would move in water. The colony seeks out rocks or metal to consume, though will always prioritize the former. Any consumed rock or metal will be brought to the center of LO-115 and converted into more colony members. Any member who is removed from the mass will instantly lose their anomalous properties.
Designation: LO-116
Description: An eyeball with neural connections split into 8 tentacle like structures.
Site Location: Site-027
Properties: LO-116 is an eyeball which has had its neural connectors lengthened and split into 8 separate arm-like structures. Each arm is approximately a meter in length. LO-116 is able to manipulate these arms in a manner akin to an octopus. LO-116 is also capable of plugging these arms into existing neural structures or similar structures. Though LO-116 is incapable of boring through animals to reach these regions, it is more capable of digging up a plant's roots and connecting there. However, this can only be used as an energy source for LO-116. Following Incident-116-L, reclassification of LO-116 into an RPC object is pending.
RPC-735 utilizes LO-113 as a primary body, with LO-116 connected to the front of the robot. Most of RPC-735 is covered in LO-115, however the exterior of the colony has been neutralized. The colony remains active on the inside, however no longer exhibits feeding behavior, likely due to being connected to LO-112's root system. LO-112 can be seen growing out of the top of RPC-735, using LO-115 as a growing medium. The entirety of RPC-735, excluding LO-116, is coated in a layer in hardened black ink. In addition, 8 ink tendrils which act as arms can be seen sprouting out from underneath LO-113. X-ray scans have shown that LO-114, which was likely used in the creation of these ink structures, is being stored in a cavity within LO-113. The remaining 4 LO-116 arms and LO-113's claw are all mounted at the front of RPC-735, and along with the ink tendrils are used for utility and offensive purposes.
RPC-735 will react violently to the presence of living organisms. It will charge them and whip them with LO-116 arms and ink tendrils whilst attempting to break their skin with its claw arm. RPC-735 may also attempt to knock over or trip the target and claw out an eye for easier access. It will then use an LO-116 arm to fuse the victim's nervous system with itself. It is unknown what purpose this serves, as the fusion will usually hinder RPC-735, and does not provide any energy benefits or mass expansion. It is assumed that RPC-735 acts solely under the control of LO-116, which does not actually know how to efficiently conduct the actions of RPC-735.
It is unknown how RPC-735 was formed, however given LO-116's status within RPC-735, it is highly probable that it was involved in the creation. It was likely capable of doing so during the period when Site-027 was left unchecked after being compromised.
Incident-735-A: After the side-wide containment breach on 05-16-2011, RPC-735 was found in the site living quarters with all available LO-116 arms implanted into 4 staff members. It was observed to be manipulating LO-115 into coating the bodies with LO-115 whilst using LO-114 to cover the bodies with ink. RPC-735 hid LO-114 within itself upon noticing it had been spotted, and attempted to flee. However, the extra bodies attached to it made it impossible for it to move, allowing it to be easily recontained. Reclassification from Alpha-Orange to Beta-Orange has been approved. Request to attempt the extraction of LO-114 from RPC-735 has been approved.
