Registered Phenomena Code: XXX

Object Class: Neutralized (formerly Beta-Purple)

Hazard Types: (read it and tell me what it should be)

Containment Protocols: RPC-XXX’s corpse is to be kept in Site-279’s morgue. Experimentation with RPC-XXX requires permission from the head researcher.

+ Display former containment protocols

RPC-XXX is contained in a standard humanoid containment cell in OL-site-45.¹ To dampen the effectiveness of RPC-XXX’s current notable abilities (telekinesis, teleportation, regeneration, and phasing through physical objects) a number of provisions have been included.

• Teleportation/phasing through objects

A number of thick concrete walls have been incorporated throughout the site to increase the chance of RPC-XXX teleporting into one. This method severely hampers RPC-XXX's capabilities, allowing for subsequent containment. Additional layers have been incorporated into RPC-XXX's containment chamber.

• Regenerative abilities/telekinesis

All security personnel on site are to be equipped with hollow point bullets to increase the effort of regenerating wounds and controlling them via telekinesis.

With the exception of OL-Site-45's creation, resources are used to minimize the risk of RPC-XXX learning new anomalous capabilities. Experimentation with RPC-XXX is to be relegated to select settings (see Test Log-XXX) to minimize RPC-XXX's adaptive capabilities.

Description: RPC-XXX is a white male aged at 18 years that has a normal outward appearance.

RPC-XXX’s main anomalous effect is the ability to potentially bend reality in an infinite amount of ways (See examples in Test Log-XXX). Every anomalous action produces a consequential effect.² Despite its regenerative abilities, RPC-XXX exhibits indications of pain during regeneration of previously lost tissue. Severity of pain is relative to the dimensions of the wound previously inflicted.³ Because of the fear of newfound pain RPC-XXX is averse to learning/using new abilities abundantly.

Discovery Log: RPC-XXX was discovered when reports of a “boy saving a woman from a car crash by stopping the car in it’s tracks” was heard in the town of ██████, Arizona on ██/██/2018. When agents were dispatched in the area RPC-XXX was found laying on the road with lacerations on both arms. Amenitics were given to all witnesses, and a cover story of a hoax was spread.

Addendum: This log contains a few of the tests done with RPC-XXX.

+ Display Test Log-XXX

Test	Result/Harmful Effect	Researcher Remarks
RPC-XXX is ordered to teleport 2 kilometers.	RPC-XXX successfully teleports but experiences slight pain in both legs as a result.	Does the pain stack?
Immediately after the last test RPC-XXX is told to repeat it.	RPC-XXX successfully teleports and feels the same pain but doubled.	Damn, this is a horrible ability.
RPC-XXX is told to teleport 10 kilometers.	Even though the task is successful RPC-XXX’s legs immediately break and fracture leaving flesh and loose bone on the floor.	That was slightly more excessive then I thought, but fortunately this easily lets us move to the next test.
RPC-XXX is ordered to heal their wounds as best they can.	RPC-XXX heals their wounds completely in the matter of seconds but because of this they experience pain great enough to make them yell in agony almost constantly.	Is there a loophole to this?
RPC-XXX is ordered to completely reduce the pain.	RPC-XXX successfully mitigates the pain completely and as a result can successfully walk. Despite this, lacerations begin to completely cover their arms, stopping only after 2 hours.	Goddamn, I guess not. Let RPC-XXX heal his new wounds and take some time for the pain to subside. Testing will begin immediately after.
Two days after the last test RPC-XXX is ordered to do test 1 and 2 on CSD-43952.	RPC-XXX teleports and heals CSD-439524 successfully but the consequences of both tests are still directed to RPC-XXX and are doubled.	This could be useful but of course only if RPC-XXX complies.
Agent ██████ is ordered to shoot a bullet passed RPC-XXX. RPC-XXX is expected to try stopping it midair via telekinesis.	Test is successful but RPC-XXX reports their hand feeling heavier afterward.	What if the object is much heavier?
RPC-XXX is ordered to stop a tank firing upon them using only telekinesis.	RPC-XXX successfully stops the shell in midair, removing all of its kinetic energy completely. RPC-XXX’s right arm fall completely limp as a result.	N/A
RPC-XXX is ordered to change CSD-43952’s current emotion to be ecstatic.	Emotions are successfully changed but RPC-XXX seems to be put in a state of extreme depression as a result.	Despite this depression being completely new and most likely temporary it doesn’t seem to be just random sadness. It seems like it’s based around RPC-XXX’s nihilistic thoughts.
RPC-XXX is ordered to phase through a 10cm thick wall.	Task is successful but RPC-XXX reports feeling slight pain throughout the body. More importantly though they report feeling strange As if all of their “organs turned into jello”. An X-ray was done to reveal the cause and it was revealed that every single cell and organ has merged together.	Tell RPC-XXX to heal themselves, we’re done here.

Addendum: Because of the adaptability of RPC-XXX, testing will be heavily restricted from now on to only allow limited testing on existing known abilities and new abilities that are unlikely to make RPC-XXX more of a threat. This is done so RPC-XXX won’t become accustomed to old abilities and discover new ones.

Addendum: Interview Log

Access Interview Log+

Interviewed: RPC-XXX

Interviewer: Dr. Puer

Foreword: This interview was conducted soon after recovery.

<Begin Log]>

Dr. Puer: Hello RPC-XXX I’m here to ask you a few questions if it’s fine with you.

RPC-XXX: Ask away doctor.

Dr. Puer: Why did you save that woman?

RPC-XXX: Well that’s bit of a stupid question don’t you think Dr. Puer?

Dr. Puer: And why is that?

RPC-XXX: Everyone is born with the want to do good even hitler thought he was in the right, completely justified.

Dr. Puer: That’s understandable RPC-XXX. How long did you have these anomalous capabilities?

RPC-XXX: For as long as I can remember doctor, but of course I had to learn some of them along the way the hard way.

Dr. Puer: What were you doing in Arizona RPC-XXX? Do you live there?

RPC-XXX: God no. I’m homeless Dr. Puer, after learning about the potential of my abilities I chose to leave school. I left to find a meaning in life that would suite me and I felt that just working some normal job my whole life would be a waste of my time.

Dr. Puer: So you felt you were to good for a normality?

RPC-XXX: I’m sorry if I sound a bit egotistical but yes, I felt I was to good for that kind of life, I felt I was born or at least given these powers for a higher purpose, good or bad. Even though at the moment I haven’t found that purpose…

Dr. Puer: Ok I understand RPC-XXX thank you for your time. I hope you find it.

<End Log>

Closing Statement: Even though RPC-XXX seems cooperative at the moment I advise tightening the containment procedures as soon as possible. RPC-XXX is a child with dreams and there will be a time when he wishes to chase them.
-Dr. Puer

Addendum: Incident Log

Access Incident Log+

On ██/██/2018⁵ RPC-XXX was found dead in their cell by Dr. Puer.

Dr. Puer claimed to know exactly what occurred and the cause for RPC-XXX’s death.

Dr. Puer’s explanation:⁶ RPC-XXX simply wanted to leave. I was right about what I said and he felt like it was time. He phased through his cell wall despite the pain and began to leave at 8:00AM. Security took notice and immediately began to open fire. RPC-XXX kept walking… and walking. Every time a bullet hit him he healed immediately. He was bleeding from every pore of his body, not only were the bullets harming him, but the price of his powers were to.

When he finally escaped the site he noticed site-279 in the distance, knowing it was an Authority site, he felt he had no choice. From this point on he would only face adversity. He destroyed both sites but left me alive. He wanted to talk me because he didn’t know what to do after that point.

Interviewed: Dr. Puer

Interviewer: RPC-XXX

Foreword: After the destruction of both sites, RPC-XXX and I sit on two large pieces of rubble. He’s bleeding everywhere, his skin is practically pealing off and even his bone is exposed in places.

<Begin Log, [11:00AM]>

Dr. Puer: Shouldn’t you heal yourself boy?

RPC-XXX: Why aren’t you calling me by my designation?

Dr. Puer: I’m not looking at you as just another anomaly anymore after all this, I’m looking at you as a person. I don’t have any superiors to bother me about it anymore anyway.

RPC-XXX lets out a small smile

RPC-XXX: Is that so Dr. Puer? After I turn into a killer you look at me as a person? Heh, well if that’s the case please call me Dominos.

To answer your question, I’ll live with it a little longer, I don’t think I deserve to heal at the moment.

Dr. Puer: For the sins you’ve committed? For killing all those people?

RPC-XXX: Of course not Dr. Puer you know I don’t think like that, and you know I think I’m justified.

Dr. Puer: You’re right. I shouldn’t pretend you act any different.

RPC-XXX: The reason why I think I don’t deserve it is because… I know I won’t do anything after this, or at least for a long time. I won’t find my purpose.

Dr. Puer: Then why wouldn’t you reverse what you’ve done?

RPC-XXX: Why the hell would I do that?

Dr. Puer: Because it’d the good thing to do, self sacrifice for the good of many. I think you’ll agree. You do have the capacity to do it, literally the first thing we heard about you is the fact you saved someone.

RPC-XXX: I already told you that doesn’t mean anything, everyone has the capacity to do good.

Dr. Puer: But you have the power to do greater things. And right now your the only one that can save them, bring everyone back.

RPC-XXX doesn’t respond.

Dr. Puer: But maybe your right, maybe you did do it just because of some sort primal human instinct.

And if that’s not going to convince you there’s another reason why you should do it.

RPC-XXX: And what is that Dr. Puer?

Dr. Puer: Heheh… Well like you said Dominos you won’t do anything after this point anyway, so you might as well end it here with one last act of redemption.

RPC-XXX: That’s a terrible thing to say, you know that?

Dr. Puer: Maybe so, but it’s true.

RPC-XXX: I’ll think about it.

Dr. Puer: I’ll be right here with you, Waiting for your decision…

After this we both sat in silence for an hour.

Then Dominos slowly stood up, arms completely limp, his loose flesh and dried blood is flaking from his body. He has tears streaming down his face but he’s smiling. He then whispers.

RPC-XXX: What a waste.

His words are so small and quiet, as if all of his confidence and self worth has been drained from his body completely, he really believed he had no other options.

He then put his right hand above his head and clutched it.

<End Log, [11:30AM]>

Closing Statement: The next thing I remember is sitting in my bed at 8:00AM, exactly when RPC-XXX escaped, and well you know the rest…

Addendum: Autopsy Report

Access Autopsy Report+

RPC-XXX’s was completely mangled and dreadful when found. Immediately it was clear there were lacerations, fractures, bruises, loose bone, and aging. When the official autopsy was done it was revealed that there were also a multitude of problems internally. A few examples were internal bleeding, blood clots, cancer cells, rotten flesh, and merged cells. Despite all this the body was completely unanomalous, except for the fact that RPC-XXX’s heart consisted of pure silver.

Addendum: Dr. Puer’s vacation note

Access Note+

I think I’m going to take a few days off work, I feel horrible. I have tricked a child into killing himself by making it seem like he had no other option. This isn’t the death of a measly anomaly or just another man. This was kid with the potential to do anything, and I coerced him into suicide, self sacrifice for “the good of many”. I might’ve done the right thing in a rational sense but in an emotional sense I have committed the greatest sin of all, and if there is a hell I guarantee I’ll fall right in it.

-Dr. Puer

Footnotes

1. Created a few kilometers from Site-279

2. Example: If RPC-XXX teleports 6 kilometers their foot would break.

3. Painkillers/anti-antidepressants do not dampen the pain.

4. Because the test didn’t inflict a wound on CSD-43952, they were shot instead.

5. 6 months after initial containment.

6. Because there is no tangible proof of any of these claims, and because this is all from Dr. Puer’s recollection, it should all be taken with caution.
