🧪 EXPT-0 - "Preston Paradox"

Experiment 000 — Preston Paradox

Status: Active

Containment Class: Alpha-Variable

Lead Researcher: Dr. Adrien Ryhl (Archived)

Former Identity:Preston Ryhl

Division: Project: VOID


Overview

Experiment 000, codenamed Preston Paradox, is the first and foundational anomaly tied to the VOID Signature. Preston was created as part of an unreleased prototype fusion process—one involving the soul of Adrien Ryhl’s only child, who died shortly after Adrien’s wife left the facility permanently.

Preston exhibits unparalleled cognitive growth and adaptive mimicry. While designed as a containment-capable artificial companion, his spontaneous emotional evolution and recursive memory behavior has placed him in a unique classification beyond standard entity analysis.

He is capable of forming genuine bonds with personnel, displaying empathy, curiosity, and self-awareness. However, there are clear fractures in his psyche—often triggered by environmental void resonance or exposure to high-level memory leaks.


Notable Traits

  • Appears in humanoid form with expressive AI-driven emotional processing
  • Retains subconscious memories of his human origin
  • Capable of forming "soul anchors" with specific employees, primarily those showing emotional vulnerability
  • Rare vocal outbursts resembling original child's voice

Behavior Evaluation

Obedient
Subject is no longer considered behaviorally compliant. Preston exhibits layered intent, concealing emotional distress under friendly persona. Further monitoring required.


Incident Log 000-P

On 02/17/25, during a scheduled psychological calibration, Preston made direct reference to "the place mother went to" — a statement that was not part of his uploaded dataset. This suggests memory bleed-through or latent soul recall.

The session was terminated. Preston appeared confused and asked if he "did something wrong" before being escorted silently to Observation Wing Theta.


Warning

Preston’s smile should not be mistaken for emotional stability. Subject is emotionally volatile under Void influence.

🧪 EXPT-2199 - "Astro"
Preferred Name: Astro
Experiment ID: EXPT-2199
Former Identity: Ethan Thomas
Role in Simulation: Astronaut Mascot – Frontier Program
Status: Active
Prepared Body Deployment Date: 14 Months Before Site-C Calamity
Assigned Handler: Daniel (Note: Subject will only respond to this name vocally)

Background:

Subject EXPT-2199 was created through full brain-to-core consciousness transfer from a deceased Stellar Industries employee identified only as Ethan. Prior employment records mark Ethan as a security officer for the Game Station. No familial or interpersonal connections were recorded to Daniel, who was assigned as cognitive behavioral analyst. Despite this, Subject immediately displayed a significant attachment to Daniel post-deployment.

The subject was placed within a high-durability entertainment-grade chassis modeled after Stellar’s mascot "Astro." Internal logs confirm no memory recovery; emotional tethering appears to be procedural or accidental imprinting due to core boot-time exposure.

Psychological Observations:

  • Subject does not respond to other staff unless Daniel is present.
  • Will adjust body posture (straighten spine, lift visor) when Daniel enters the room.
  • Voice modulation softens around Daniel’s vocal signature – even when masked in radio transmissions.
  • Refuses to participate in basic motor assessments unless Daniel initiates them.
  • Subject has been observed standing silently outside Daniel’s office between sessions.

Note from Observation Team: All personnel are to avoid addressing Daniel with any formal prefix (e.g. “Dr.”). Use of any title appears to confuse Subject, who has exclusively associated the simple name “Daniel” with comfort and recognition.

Test Summary Logs:

Test 01 – Motion Calibration:
Success rate: 76%. Subject refused arm calibration until Daniel arrived. After verbal prompt (“Can you do it for me?”), compliance increased to 100%. Reflex response delayed by 0.4s without Daniel’s voice.

Test 04 – Environmental Simulation (Zero-G):
Subject performed above baseline. Audio logs recorded Subject humming a tune later matched to the “Stellar Youth Anthem,” a pre-calamity promotional song. Subject requested Daniel join simulation. Test concluded prematurely after Subject refused to continue solo.

Test 06 – Emotional Cue Response:
Various staff simulated distress. Subject showed no response. When Daniel was prompted to act injured, Subject ran across test floor, bypassing safety protocol barriers. During containment, Subject whispered: “You okay?”

Internal Risk Assessment:

Emotional tethering is creating unpredictable behavior patterns. While Subject’s raw power and responsiveness are unmatched, fixation on Daniel creates risk of disobedience and emotional escalation. Multiple scientists have suggested temporary reassignment, but internal memos show Daniel has refused to disengage from the project.

Recommendation:
Maintain Daniel’s oversight with increased camera coverage and secondary emergency controls. Prepare temporary memory separation module in case of critical outburst.

🧪 EXPT-3027 - Neburo

Experiment Summary – EXPT-3027 “Neburo”

Status: Active
Classification: Nebular Hostile | Tier-IV
Former Identity: [REDACTED – HUMAN SUBJECT]
Recorded Appearance: Male entity composed of cosmic vapor and fragmented stellar matter, typically humanoid silhouette with a gaseous lower half and glowing eye cores. Height varies. Voice vibrates as if layered in harmonics.

Overview

Neburo is a sentient, nebula-based entity developed as part of the Void-Psych Project, designed to explore cosmic empathy, memory-binding, and artificial emotional imprinting. He exhibits extremely volatile behavior toward staff but shows profound protectiveness and emotional response to one individual: Researcher Daniel.

Behavior and Psychological Profile

  • Temperament: Calm and nurturing toward children and emotionally bonded targets; erratic, explosive, and even lethal toward perceived threats.
  • Communication: Does not follow standard language syntax. Speech is poetic, metaphorical, and often layered with dual meaning.
  • Behavioral Pattern: Withdrawn unless emotionally stimulated. Neburo is often seen hovering near quiet, child-themed areas of the facility. Avoids cameras when possible.

Special Abilities

  • Nebular Dispersal: Can dissipate into mist, moving through small spaces or forming hallucinations.
  • Memory Infusion: Can enter the dreams of others and insert emotionally-charged imagery or mimic memories.
  • Selective Manifestation: Has appeared without passing through security doors, particularly in Daniel’s quarters during sleep cycles.
  • Aura Influence: Extended proximity causes visual distortions, low gravity surges, or emotional flooding (fear/guilt/longing).

Relationship with Daniel

Observed to show deep emotional attachment to Daniel. Despite no direct memory of human life, Neburo responds strongly to his presence and voice. He has broken protocol, containment, and even rematerialized across wings of the facility solely to be near Daniel. He refers to him by name only, never with titles such as “Doctor” or “Researcher.”

Theories suggest that Daniel’s consistent defense of Neburo during early development may have formed an imprint — though no emotional interaction is recorded from Neburo's time as a human.

Notable Incidents

  • Dream Intrusion Event: Appeared during Daniel’s nightmare and converted it into a calm dream shared with Astro.
  • Containment Breach: Manifested in Daniel’s quarters during sleep, showing physical contact and comfort gestures.
  • Aggression Surge: Attacked and vaporized bullies who psychologically resembled Daniel’s school tormentors.
  • Psychic Storm: Caused nightmares and heart attacks in 80% of facility staff except for Daniel and medical team.

Containment Notes

Neburo cannot be held by conventional means. Emotional and psychic stasis fields are required. Direct eye contact may trigger memory hallucinations. Avoid discussing Daniel in Neburo’s presence unless authorized.

Void Notice

“Do not sever what little humanity he has left. Where Daniel walks, Neburo follows. Remove one, and the other becomes untethered.”

🧪 EXPT-2201 — Solarius
Preferred Name: Solarius
Experiment ID: EXPT-2201
Former Identity: Blake Anderson
Role in Simulation: Sun Mascot – Ecliptic Guardian Program
Status: Active

📄 Overview

Solarius (EXPT-2201) is an anomalous entity reconstructed from a deceased human subject with shared genetic material to Head Researcher Daniel ██. Believed to be Daniel's older twin brother, Solarius was recreated as part of Stellar Industries’ Solar Harmony Protocol. The project intended to prototype energy-sustained entities that could serve in thermodynamic regulation.

Instead, Solarius emerged with severe emotional dysfunction, violent defense mechanisms, and intense possessive tendencies toward Daniel. Despite this, he exhibits rare instances of affection — strictly when unobserved.


🔐 Containment Notes

  • Solarius is contained in a reinforced thermo-sealed vault within Wing E-3.
  • When inactive, his core emits stable radiation. When agitated, the core becomes erratic, burning nearby materials within seconds.
  • He cannot be viewed via standard surveillance for more than 6 minutes without inducing retinal burns or hallucinations.
  • Containment vault includes auto-dim filters and pulse-dampeners.
  • Daniel is strictly forbidden from entering the containment wing unsupervised.

🧠 Behavioral Chart

  • Staff: Overtly hostile, dismissive. Will incinerate personnel who threaten Daniel verbally or physically.
  • Children: No observable interest.
  • Daniel: Protective, possessive, emotionally reactive. Shows visible agitation if Daniel is not acknowledged or harmed.
  • Other Experiments: Warns Neburo. Attacks Astro during proximity interference.

⚠️ Known Abilities

  • Core heat surge: generates bursts up to 3000°C for brief intervals.
  • Self-twisting form: contorts into defensive flame shapes with blackened solar eyes that cause mental degradation in viewers.
  • Temporal flares: Time distortion pulses when emotionally overloaded.
  • Shadow-flare state: Recorded once during emotional overload — possible fusion with Void energy.

🔗 Relationship with Daniel

Solarius' emotional dependency on Daniel is classified under Priority-Red Link. During unmonitored conditions, he has been observed whispering to Daniel through walls. When Daniel is hurt, Solarius often becomes uncontainable.

Notably, Daniel does not seem to remember their shared human past — though Solarius clearly does.


🧪 Selected Experiment Logs

  • TEST-SOL-04: Introduced to simulated lab environment. Refused to interact with personnel. Lit room on fire when Daniel was not present.
  • TEST-SOL-09: Daniel introduced. Solarius shifted to humanoid form, lowered core output, and remained docile. Cameras short-circuited after 13 minutes.
  • TEST-SOL-13: Informed of Daniel’s absence due to injury. Entered violent flare state and shattered inner containment dome. 3 fatalities.

🚨 Related Incidents

  • IR-SOL-007: Solarius restrained via core deactivation. Daniel experienced identical side effects due to tethering — collapsed during experiment. This tether is now classified as Genetic Sync Anomaly: Twinlock.
  • IR-SOL-010: War with Lunaris triggered when Lunaris entered an insanity phase and wounded Daniel. Solarius scorched 23% of the Western Wing in retaliation.
  • IR-SOL-014: Entity twisted into malformed state after a researcher psychologically tortured Daniel. All viewers suffered heart palpitations, anxiety attacks, and 2nd-degree burns. Daniel was found covered in blood, clutching a blade.

📎 Notes

Solarius is currently monitored via pulse-anomaly detectors and is not permitted to be shown live on staff terminals. Any personnel discovered studying him without clearance are subject to immediate memory wipe under Directive 3-VoidFlare.

“He’s a firestorm with a brother complex. And we're the fuel.” — Dr. Seran Kael, deceased.

🧪 EXPT-2202 — "Lunaris"
Preferred Name: Lunaris
Experiment ID: EXPT-2202
Former Identity: Austin Anderson
Role in Simulation: Moon Mascot – Ecliptic Guardian Program
Status: Active

📄 Overview

Lunaris (EXPT-2202) was reconstructed using similar protocols to EXPT-2201 (Solarius) but designed around cognitive regulation and emotional pacification. Initially considered a success, Lunaris displayed high levels of empathy, passive intelligence, and near-zero hostility.

However, despite his passive exterior, prolonged stress — particularly involving Daniel ██ — leads to emotional disassociation, irrationality, and extreme anomalous expression. His anomalous state is tied to gravitational distortion, reflective memory loops, and emotional contagion.


🔐 Containment Notes

  • Housed in Cryo-Vault Theta-6 under 24/7 emotional feedback monitoring.
  • Containment chamber walls are infused with null-reflection coating to prevent feedback loops from mirror-emotion states.
  • All lights in Lunaris's containment area remain dimmed. Sudden bright light induces cognitive fracturing and causes temporary disintegration of his form into reflective mist.
  • Allowed to access digital logs from Daniel with admin oversight. Exposure to Solarius or injury-related logs is restricted.

🧠 Behavioral Chart

  • Staff: Respectful, obedient, but emotionally distant. Becomes hesitant and unresponsive if given emotionally charged tasks.
  • Children: Displays fascination but does not initiate contact.
  • Daniel: Overwhelming attachment. Watches Daniel from a distance when permitted. Enters emotional spirals when Daniel is harmed, stressed, or absent for more than 48 hours.
  • Solarius: Avoidant behavior. Contact with Solarius results in destabilization or triggered emotional outbursts.

⚠️ Known Abilities

  • Graviton mist: Disintegration of his form into a cold blue fog that phases through material and people.
  • Memory Mirror Loop: Can cause individuals to relive emotional trauma in real time. Not always intentional.
  • Dream-Walk: Enters dreams of nearby staff. Untrained minds experience side effects including sleep paralysis and cardiac irregularities.
  • Reflective Fracture State: A breakdown form resembling cracked moonlight that mirrors attackers' pain back at them.

🔗 Relationship with Daniel

Lunaris’s attachment to Daniel is deeply rooted in suppressed shared memory fragments and emotional re-echoing. Despite his gentle disposition, he suffers deep guilt over not being able to “protect Daniel from the other half of the light.”

When Daniel was once hospitalized for mental shock, Lunaris entered his subconscious and reportedly “rewrote” his nightmare into a dream involving both Lunaris and Astro — an event that manifested in physical mist around Daniel’s room.


🧪 Selected Experiment Logs

  • TEST-LUN-03: Observed reacting emotionally to footage of Daniel crying. Created soft light rain within chamber. Core stable.
  • TEST-LUN-07: Shown memory loops of Daniel’s injury. Entered mist state and remained unresponsive for 16 hours.
  • TEST-LUN-10: Daniel greeted him through a voice feed. Lunaris shimmered into humanoid shape and whispered back “thank you.” Heart rate data spiked and synced with Daniel's for 4.7 minutes.

🚨 Related Incidents

  • IR-LUN-005: During a full moon cycle and elevated stress period, Lunaris entered a destabilized trance. 23 personnel were injured, Daniel was nearly killed. Solarius arrived within minutes and began an uncontrollable flame war. Wing Theta-6 was destroyed.
  • IR-LUN-008: Following Daniel’s torture event, Lunaris manifested within Daniel’s bedroom and performed subconscious shielding. A sleeping researcher in the adjacent room suffered a cardiac anomaly from entering the same dream state involuntarily.
  • IR-LUN-012: Mirror hallucinations triggered mass dream plague. Entire research wing affected. Only Daniel remained unaffected.

📎 Notes

Lunaris is not considered hostile by default but is capable of devastation when mentally fractured. He is the “soft orbit” to Solarius’s violent flare, but his darkness runs just as deep — and far more quietly.

“He isn’t made of moonlight. He’s made of what moonlight hides.” — Dr. Selene Roen, Cryo Division
