Folks - we don't know what this thing does to food, but you shouldn't eat anything that's been near it. One of the junior researchers used it to reheat his lunch and he started talking Old Vellandoran and throwing things at people, we had to sedate.

Again, and I must repeat this for emphasis: NO FOOD NEAR 0D2.

Tembo, Syndication Sciences Anomaly Team

I don't want to be rude, but it's very clear from these test results that our forefathers had no idea what this Object was doing. The cooling system is a cognitohazard.

The steam coming from the cooling system is a cognitohazard.

I advise this Object be moved to a secure refrigeration unit until we can put in place a two-loop cooler, starting immediately.

0000D2 is being relocated to the Ultek site. As for the old containment cell...

It was our intention to scrap it, but it seems in the centuries we have had the item, it has influenced the walls somehow. The structural members have been engraved with runes, and we cannot break the welds. We have tried. It broke our tools.

The council has decided to leave it as it is and mark it as 0000D2a. Please contact us if you have any queries.

She-Who-Studies, Exotic Sciences Council

The data on 000139 is a bit of a mess, but I've managed to put together a (mostly) comprehensive list on all of their confirmed sightings. Hopefully this'll go some ways to helping us understand them.

This list should be amendable in the new system, so go ahead and tack on new ones when they're confirmed.

Glides-Forward-With-Haste, Modern Cryptids Initiative

We would request, despite the existence of this entry, that no member of personnel use the name "mAO-00052A" when referring to us. Yes, even as a joke. We are still uncomfortable with our classification, even if it recognises our autonomy.

We will volunteer for experiments on our own time. Any requests to "perform tricks" of any kind will be denied and reported to the Personnel Management Council. Thank you for your understanding.

She-Who-Studies, Exotic Sciences Council

This is a non-exhaustive list of Entropic Actions that She-Who-Studies has been reported to exhibit. The article was getting pretty long, so I figured it might be better to put in here.

And before you ask - yes, a lot of these are personally reported. I've verified them all extensively.

She-Who-Studies is capable of:

• Entropo-utility (anchoring and vectoring)
• Telekinesis
• Echo cognition
• Nonlinear cognition
  • Precognition: 15 minutes advance
  • "Post"-cognition: 3 hours advance (self-reported, possibly non-anomalous)
• Projection ("remote viewing")
• Innate navigation
• Point-collapse negation ("pseudo-inerting")
• Probability manipulation
• Energy emission (electrical and/or heat)
  • Continuous: ~5 KWh
  • Instantaneous: 59+ KW
• Instantaneous entropomemetic transmission
• Magnetoreception (sensitivity to magnetic fields)
• Telequantoreception (sensitivity to quantum communications frequencies)
• Localised gravity negation
• Space manipulation
  • Compression
  • Dilation
  • Non-euclidean distortion
  • Self-displacement through non-euclidean space instantiation
• Point-kinetic manipulation
  • Amplification: 67 kN s (possibly more; hardier measuring equipment required)
  • Mitigation: 35 kN s (GS four-seat personal ground vehicle @ 30 m/s)
• Temporary manifestation of pseudophysical "Entropite" objects
• True superluminal induction (and, subsequently, causality violation)
• Thermodynamic manipulation
  • Entropy (increasing and decreasing)
  • Enthalpy of enclosed systems

If you see any more, please contact me or the council to verify. Thanks.

On .11:05, in the Nightfall Theatre on the planet Yt (2A35C0c), a mass injury event transpired involving Anomalous Object FA4.

The Object, an antique horn, was played by horner Springs-From-The-Hands for approximately twelve (12) minutes, during which witnesses within earshot reported intensifying paranoia accompanied by a "gnawing" feeling in their heads.

The performance was cut short when members of the audience and orchestra became agitated and started screaming. What then followed was an impromptu evacuation which resulted in multiple casualties, none fatal.

A recovery team was dispatched soon after medical services arrived to treat the wounded. The horner was found to be in a state of withdrawn catatonia and had sustained a head injury from falling out of their chair. They were still holding the Object.

Attempts to remove the Object from the horner's possession were initially unsuccessful, but succeeded when they partially recovered from their state five (5) hours later.

In all, twenty-four (24) individuals, including the horner, required post-traumatic psychiatric treatment. A further forty-six (46) of the two-hundred-and-ninety-five (295) present at the performance were physically injured.

Finally getting to some of the smaller stuff. I found the logs for this one and put together an article.

Now, not to get all 'Serious Sam' and ruin people's "pranks", but this has to be said: anyone found using 000FA4 outside of experimental settings for any reason will be subject to Ethical Conduct Committee judgement and possible termination. No matter what.

This item caused permanent damage for those people back in ::0809, and that was by mistake. Let's approach this one with an abundance of caution - okay?

Unit 44X-05, SESD Materials Management Council

On .05:03, following reports from an airlock loader aboard the THOR-03 space station around Enjil (000F04d), SESD made contact with "Delta Mike", a sentient SD-08 spacecraft.

The loader had reported observing "[objects] were moving around on their own" through the airlock window aperture. They contacted the station logistics control hub, who then notified SESD and permitted communication via proxy.

The transcript of the conversation is attached to this report.

Delta Mike would depart the THOR-03 space station shortly following the conversation and make a hypermagnetopulse jump to unknown co-ordinates, likely inside cluster 00.

Y'know, this has been funny for pranks and all - remember Hilbert's tea incident? - but I've been giving it some thought and wanted to probe how we'd feel about this being a thing in the ES museum. I think it'd be a fun showpiece.

I mean, the experiments we've run have shown it's basically harmless, even for sensitive folks. No headaches, no disorientation, they just don't think it looks right. Hey - that might be a good way to find new volunteers!

I'm forwarding this to the Outreach folks and the Council. I know kids are already interested in the Entropic, but I think this could really make an impact with their parents, y'know? Really drive home the magic.

All new researchers on 002608 must take (and pass!) a Depth 2 Isolation Test following Sprink's incident during 002608~E. Spending two days in dilated time only to realise it's been ten minutes outside is not conducive to one's mental health.

Also - and I can't believe this needs to be said - 002608 should not be used to cheat at card games video games board games ANY type of game or recreational activity without proper experimental controls!! It might have been three hundred years since we got it, but we can't afford to be complacent with these things!

I'm upgrading the containment rating to B and putting in a relocation request to light containment. Please clear experiments with their council. Stay safe SESD.

Bert Langstrom, SESD Everyday Initiative

This one's been on my mind for the past two years. Why? Why would a perfectly functional firearm, for all intents and purposes, be imbued with this?

There's no lineage to this. No sequence of events. We have dice that land snake-eyes every time. The hot coilgun slug. The workshop-thing that makes dollhouse furniture. All of those have some embedded 'thing' to them, something you can say, "oh, right, okay" to.

But this? This thing? Old gun that turns its ammo into steam. We can't even fire it. This has to be a joke.

Miskena, Anomalous Applications Initiative

On .07:09, shortly after mAO-002790's recovery from AO-99Ab-1, a core-needle biopsy was performed (with approval from the Ethics Committee) to determine its internal composition. As 002790 does not react to any stimuli and its biochemistry was (and still is) unknown, use of general anaesthetic was deemed unwise; a cold compress was instead used to numb the area prior to extraction.

002790 was relocated to a clean room and extraction was initiated. Two were present in the room at the time: Hyperbiologist 401-Nadir and Junior Researcher Ylzixxa-viri.

Upon insertion of the needle, 002790 began to emit an entropomemetic effect, inducing immense distress in Junior Researcher Ylzixxa-viri uncharacteristic of her baseline behaviour. Observers noted that she turned away and covered her face with her hands while murmuring a prayer. Hyperbiologist 401-Nadir, a HOOTNET robot, also exhibited an unusual tremble, which in a later interview was explained to be a stress response.

When extraction was complete and the core placed into a bottle for analysis, 401-Nadir spoke the words "Sorry, Golbo" aloud. 002790 ceased emission shortly afterwards.

It is thought that "Golbo" may be the "true name" of 002790

We would request that, if you find 003D71 in the open, you place it in a box and bring it to us. Light exposes it to undue stress.

We would also request that you do not hit the walls or ceiling if you are agitated by its calls. I have trained it to respond to claps. If it hears a clap, it will go away.

Please be kinder to 003D71. We are guests in its palace.

She-Who-Studies, Exotic Sciences Council

Weighed 003D71 today, and it seems to have stopped growing, for now. It's currently about 1.52 kilos, which was in the trend the stats guys put together.

I'm worried, though - will we need to brace the ceilings next time the little guy has a growth spurt? I mean, I don't know if it's eating anything (as I understand it, Beings don't need to eat), but I think we should do regular weighings to make sure it's not getting too big for us?

Karakatai, Exotic Sciences Materials Management Council

Since 00D1D9's light seems to be able to influence people at a distance (prior observations confirmed it works to about a range of 150 metres), the Council has elected to put the Object in a blind cell with a CCTV link.

Camera images seem to have no effect even when the lights are on, but just out of an abundance of caution, we'll be putting researchers through a basic vehicle handling exam every division or so. Can't be too safe with AOs.

No changes to test subject protocol. Vehicle handling exam after every experiment. No exceptions, please - disclose this to volunteers and make time for it in your schedules.

Any questions, do let us know.

SAPC, SESD Materials Management Council

Standard experimental controls. Subject placed in blind cell with desk and seat, where they were instructed to sit and observe the light. Paper and stylus provided for writing down observations.

Screen between subject and Object reduces apparent light exposure by 65% to 50 W for comfort. Reducing, reflecting, or otherwise manipulating light from Object does not diminish its apparent effect (see Initial Encounter Report).

Light in containment cell is a standard fluorescent broad-spectrum (white) lighting fixture, 25 W.

Power delivered to 00D1D9 is 140 W @ 300VAC/0.45A.
