I. Wells

Wife of Dr. Harvey Wells, presumed dead after fatal accident upon entering Radiance-1, accompanied by a contained explosion that killed numerous Lumitech staff members.

The Console

An artificial intelligence connected to a series of consoles created by Dr. Wells at Lumitech, in May 2016.

Currently residing in Lumitech site C-1.

Fort Rosner

Rosner is the designation for a department within the Nellis AFB complex. They focus on experimental weaponry, both mechanical and biological. The Console doesn't have a lot of information on them, but did provide a valid email address to reach them.

Locations

The following are locations and their respective descriptions, as provided by The Console.

Lumitech Sites

19-Xi-Aster

"Also known as Earth. Their main labs are located here."

42-Iota-Convallaria

"AETHER mining and processing is conducted."

"42-Iota-Convallaria was the first site to be established for AETHER mining. However, staff would go missing from time to time, several believing they were being watched."

Found by Lumitech: July 23, 2015

20-Beta-Hyoscyamus

"Research on ruins and mythological texts."

"20-Beta-Hyoscyamus contained numerous ruins and texts relating to a myth of a "broken angel"."

Found by Lumitech: July 29, 2015

5-Kappa-Myosotis

"Agriculture and farming tests."

Found by Lumitech: November 16, 2015

64-Pi-Rafflesia

"Weapon testing."

Found by Lumitech: August 12, 2015

99-Alpha-Orchidaceae

"Temporary hub for Lumitech staff."

Found by Lumitech: August 22, 2015

C-1

"Attempts to travel beyond the known universe."

Found by Lumitech: September 19, 2015

13-Sigma-Asclepias

"No console exists within 13-Sigma-Asclepias. It is a hostile place, forsaken."

"The original plans were to use the site for AETHER mining, as it had very high readings identical to that of the [6] Failed Sites. Unlike them, however, 13-Sigma-Asclepias could be accessed."

"One week after colonization, on-site staff disappeared. They were later found, but expressed frequent violent tendencies and a more animalistic demeanour."

"Numerous lives were lost. Autopsies revealed large amounts of Sigma in their digestive system. Ultimately, the site was removed from the system."

Found by Lumitech: October 31, 2015

Dr. Wells' Projects

Completed

Project Aether

"Project Aether was started after a mineral radiating AETHER was discovered. Instantly, it was applied in multiple ways."

Project Starfish

"An experiment to see what AETHER's side effects were on humans. Numerous subjects grew additional organs and body parts as a result."

"[19] subjects experienced negative effects, [12] of them ultimately dying."

Project Precipice

Last project Dr. Wells work on with Lumitech.

Pending

Project Hive

"A collaboration between Lumitech and Fort Rosner personnel to further the development of artificial intelligence, giving them bodies."

Failed

Project Radiance

Purpose: Manipulating Aether in order to open "doors" between points in space. Presumably a similar concept than that of "worm holes". The project details were classified after failure.

From an encrypted classified file found by solvers:

  Project Radiance: Previous studies of AETHER have shown that it is capable of manipulating matter. Hypothetically, it could be used to create a “door” to a different point in space.

Miscellaneous

AETHER

"AETHER is a naturally-found energy that can be applied in numerous ways. It can transmute. It can replace electricity. It can be used on humans and animals. It's properties are quite flexible."

Sigma Beasts

"Sigma Beasts are entities composed of an unidentifiable biological substance (dubbed Sigma), and originate from a singular source. Their forms and properties vary for each individual SB."

The presumed creator of all Sigma Beasts is known as Sigma Beast Discord. Post 27217 0826 says as follows:

   SB-D located within close proximity
   Description: (N/A). Stature is always humanoid, appearance changes.
   Notes: SB-D is the presumed creator of all SBs. Data readings show that the entity produces more energy than its creations, and that there can be multiple instances of it. 
   Containment is unlikely.
   Sightings
   15716 1744: Figure seen at site prior to origin of SB.
   23716 0928: Figure of same description seen spewing black substance confirmed to be composed of the same material as the SB.
   9816 1241: SB-3 found, figure allegedly seen sinking into shallow pool of substance.
   30117 0855: Figure is confirmed to be SB-D post-scan. Remains of missing persons found in substance nearby site.

The known Sigma Beasts are:

SB-1

Description: A wolf approximately 4 feet tall, consisting of unknown black waste and minor amounts of identical red waste for eyes (8). A clock is embedded in its tail, extra eyes located on the chest and centrepiece of the clock.

Notes: Exposing SB-1 to cold temperatures yields no results. Fire is absorbed into the body of SB-1. Spraying with water produces smoke, and often results in body mass deterioration.

Storage: SB-1 is to be kept within an enclosure consisting of a steel floor, four (4) walls made up of several layers of glass and a steel ceiling adorn with one (1) source of light.

SB-7

Description: A malnourished humanoid entity approximately 7 feet high. Has large bulbous red eyes that lock onto target, even when targeted personnel are not in the same room or building. Small clock face is located on body of sternum.

Notes: SB-7's presence triggers intense fear response for target(s). Survivors of said trauma report having their oldest and innermost fears subjected to them. Its body, despite being composed of the same material, produces a foul odor, the entity's presence reducing the temperature of confined spaces by at least 5° C.

Storage: SB-7 is to be kept within an enclosure consisting of a stone floor, three (3) walls made up of several layers of bulletproof glass, one (1) wall made of steel and equipped with ventilation, and a steel ceiling adorn with one (1) source of light.

Security: Personnel handling SB-7 are to enter its chamber wearing hazmat suits (complete with respirators) and wielding stun batons. No fewer than three (3) people are to be in SB-7's chamber at a time.

SB-19

Description: A large humanoid creature composed of unknown black substance, large red eye located on centre of face. Small clock faces are embedded on the backs of its gargantuan hands.

Notes: SB-19'S solidity is inconsistent at times; while the body is constantly solid mass, its hands alter between solid and liquid state. When solid, a single punch is fully capable of obliterating up to 3 layers of brick wall. While liquid, SB-19's hands become puddles up to 12 inches in diameter. Anything caught within them rapidly dissolves (due to a lack of visible mouth, it is implied that SB-19 consumes food and miscellaneous items with these puddles).

Storage: SB-19 is to be kept within an enclosure consisting of a marble floor coated in a layer of alkaline liquid, four (4) walls made up of several layers of bulletproof glass and a steel ceiling adorn with one (1) source of light.
