Depths:

(Dante's Purgatorio Canto XVI Page 174, Line 103-114)

As you can see, bad leadership has caused
the present state of evil in the world,
not Nature that has grown corrupt in you.

On Rome, that brought the world to know the good,
once shone two suns that lighted up two ways:
the road of this world and the road of God.

The one sun has put out the other's light;
the sword is now one with the crook — and fused
together thus, must bring about misrule,

since joined, now neither fears the other one.
If you still doubt, think of the grain when ripe —
each plant is judged according to its seed.

Perugia, Italy. The depths of the city do not end and mirror Dante's Inferno. Read here and here. The Agony and the Ecstasy, and Purgatorio 18.


Remember the Agency of Interest event! Various agencies compete for articles!

WELCOME TO THE CRAB ZONE. PUNISHMENT IS IMMINENT.

AMALGAM: Posted.
AMALGAM 'Recovering': Not started.
ERLKOENIG: Work-in-progress.
APOSTASY: Not started.
WAR: Not started.
Tank Hivemind: Zwanglotse placed into a bunch of tanks, form a hivemind of sorts.
WRAITH: Look below.
'Swamp Things': Not high on the list, but it'll be some time since most of it no longer 'fits' in the RPC Universe. Malthus/Nihil cults that deny sapience?
FREEDOM: The "Pilot" of the Children of Nihil explores random GMOD servers. RPC interviews it.
META: Dossier on unique materials formed by coherency breakdowns or Groves Radiation. Like the materials formed by nuclear reactor meltdowns.
EXTRACT: Portal to another dimension in a zinc mine in Alaska. Alternate world is a forest, filled with oil. The trees are composed of human flesh, with tongues that can grab wildlife, render it unconscious with morphine in its saliva, and drag it back to the tree to be devoured.
AUTHOR: Hostile reality bender makes people believe they are in a book/play, and makes it so. SCP-1370-RU. Maybe the interview log becomes written like a script for a play?
TOMORROW, Or Where We End: Behind a massive vault door is a gateway to a pocket dimension that expands infinitely (like minecraft) as we explore it, with 3 moons. Time passes ridiculously fast. The Church of Malthus raids the site and takes control of it, and enter the vault. While only holding it for a few days, 10,493 years pass inside. Those who entered have become entirely alien, and the world is now five times the size of Earth.
EIDOLON, AKA Ghosts Like Us: Hypothetical entity that only appears in memories. If you have heard about him, the more likely he appears in your memories, inserted randomly. "I experience everything simultaneously. I have no past, no present, no future. I simply am. We'll be having another conversation 5 years ago, doctor." The "interview logs" are not in order. The memories already exist, and the Authority is finding researchers who claim to have these memories. Maybe they're a therapist or something.
TOKEN: Marvel's "The Moon Knight" but with the Suns of the Nihil Pantheon. Specifically, the Early Light, the Pilot, the Savage Redness, and the Exiled Sun.
PERFECTION: A future iteration of a sect of the Church of Malthus that does not believe in sapience. Rather, the machine is a more perfect creation, and we all must become a part of it. The Omega is their god, an entity that they will construct in the far future. They recover anomalies that they believe will be useful to them, and the Authority encounters different iterations of them from the future. The earliest iterations are from about 20 years into the future, and are technologically on-par with the Authority, possibly with hovercraft stolen from them, while the Preternatural Iteration is from 12,482 years into the future and incredibly powerful.
SYMBOL: Heavily classified article. Non-canon. A cognitohazard that induces feelings of safety, compliance, and security. At the bottom, the image is shown: it's heavily reminiscent of the modern RPC logo. Old or unused logos are used throughout the article instead or something. Essentially the Authority adopted a cognitohazard as their logo.


Freedom:

Registered Phenomena Code: RPC-614

Containment Rating: Beta

Lethality Rating: White
h-sapient.png Sapient

Containment Protocols: Given that RPC-614 has no major or anomalous impact on the real world, nor within a digital medium, and the recent agreement prevents its interference of civilian property and risking detection, there are no containment protocols provided or needed.

Description: RPC-614 is a sapient entity that is capable of accessing and transmitting through the Internet at large. RPC-614 is capable of accessing the Internet through any computer capable of maintaining an Internet connection and has a copy of Garry's Mod1 downloaded.


The Taxidermist

Registered Phenomena Code: RPC-614

Containment Rating: Beta

Lethality Rating: White
h-sapient.png Sapient

A taxidermist in a middle-of-nowhere town resurrects people in various taxidermized statues, Authority "recruits" him to use this magic as a sort of interrogation method. Stoats!


Tomorrow:

(CSD is sent in for an hour, but 78 years pass inside. The Authority receives all transmissions practically instantly.)

"I have made my peace. I have found my home. There is peace, here, inside this world. A peace I could not find elsewhere. Maybe that makes me weak. Maybe that makes me unfit to live. I do not know. And now, I do not care."
