DA-127 - "The Iridescent Harbinger"
Subject Class: Extreme
Secure Containment Guidelines:
DA-127 is to be contained in a hermetically sealed, cold chamber measuring 50m x 50m x 30m at Site-██. The chamber must be maintained at a constant temperature of -20°C to ensure the entity remains in a dormant state. Access to DA-127's containment chamber is strictly prohibited, with all interaction conducted exclusively through remote-controlled drones equipped with high-frequency sound dampening technology. Personnel are forbidden from making direct eye contact with DA-127 through any visual medium.
To ensure the entity's containment integrity, the cold chamber must be inspected weekly for any signs of structural weakness or temperature fluctuation. In the event of a containment breach, emergency protocols require immediate evacuation of the surrounding area and deployment of specialized containment units equipped with sound and visual disruption devices. Any personnel exhibiting symptoms of exposure must be quarantined and undergo psychological evaluation and treatment.
Description:
DA-127 is an iridescent, moth-like entity approximately 32 feet in length, resembling a privet hawk-moth with wings that are predominantly black and dark grey. The entity's iridescent sheen produces a disturbing and captivating visual effect, which can induce intense fear and paranoia in those who observe it. DA-127's wingspan and the intricate patterns on its wings further enhance its intimidating presence, making it a formidable and awe-inspiring sight.
In addition to its visual impact, DA-127 emits a disorienting high-frequency sound that affects anyone within its vicinity. This sound has been measured at frequencies that disrupt human cognitive functions, causing severe disorientation, nausea, and headaches. More alarmingly, individuals who make direct eye contact with DA-127 experience apocalyptic visions, which vividly depict catastrophic and world-ending scenarios. These visions have a profound psychological impact, often resulting in extreme distress, paranoia, and suicidal tendencies.
The discovery of DA-127 followed a mass suicide event in a remote region of Siberia, where the entity was initially encountered. Survivors of the incident reported experiencing overwhelming fear and nightmarish visions prior to the event. Due to the extreme danger posed by DA-127, containment measures prioritize minimizing human exposure and ensuring the entity remains in a controlled and isolated environment. Research and observation are conducted remotely, with stringent protocols to prevent accidental exposure to its effects.
Addendum: Incident DA-127-01
On ██/██/20██, an unauthorized drone malfunctioned while conducting routine maintenance within DA-127's containment chamber. The malfunction resulted in the drone's cameras becoming stuck in an active state, inadvertently transmitting a live feed of DA-127 to the control room. Two technicians in the control room were exposed to DA-127's visual effects and immediately experienced severe psychological distress.
Both technicians reported seeing vivid and detailed visions of global catastrophes, including widespread natural disasters and large-scale human conflicts. Despite rapid medical intervention, one technician succumbed to his injuries after attempting self-harm, while the other remains in a secure psychiatric facility under constant supervision.
Following this incident, all remote monitoring equipment has been upgraded with enhanced safety protocols, including automatic shutdown features and additional layers of visual filters to prevent direct exposure. The containment protocols for DA-127 have been revised to include more stringent checks on all remote operation systems to ensure no further accidental exposure occurs.
Note: Given the catastrophic potential of DA-127, ongoing research is focused on understanding the mechanisms behind its visual and auditory effects. Preliminary studies suggest that the iridescent patterns on DA-127's wings may contain microstructures capable of manipulating light and sound in anomalous ways. Efforts are underway to develop countermeasures that could neutralize these effects, potentially enabling safer study and eventual neutralization of the entity.
Future research proposals must be approved by the Ethics Committee and the Site Director, with all experiments conducted remotely to minimize risk. The objective is to balance the need for scientific understanding with the imperative to protect personnel and maintain containment integrity.
