Research & Development

Overview

Experiment 2006, also known as the Sera, was created as a psychological regulator designed to maintain harmony between volatile entities within the Celestial Sanctuary. Modeled after an ethereal, winged figure of radiant beauty, she projects an aura capable of instilling feelings of overwhelming joy, compassion, and unconditional love in any subject within its range. Originally classified as a pacification experiment, Sera quickly became one of the most unpredictable creations within Stellar Industries.

Appearance

Sera manifests as a humanoid with shimmering, semi-translucent wings that refract light into radiant hues of pink, violet, and gold. Its form appears androgynous, beautiful, and unthreatening, though observers often describe it as too perfect, creating an uncanny unease despite its intended purpose. Sera does not walk; it drifts gracefully, with its wings always in a slow, silent motion.

Abilities

• Aura of Happiness: Projects waves of serotonin-inducing energy, forcing subjects into euphoric states and suppressing hostile impulses.
• Compulsion of Love: Induces strong emotional and romantic attachment between subjects exposed to its aura. This was the effect that caused the convergence of Experiments 2287 (Atlas) and 2288 (Helios) in Security Log — Operation: The Eclipse.
• Memory Distortion: Some affected individuals recall events differently, often with exaggerated positivity or in dreamlike states.
• Emotional Overload: Long-term exposure leads to collapse, emotional dependency, or loss of self-identity. Some subjects entered catatonic bliss states lasting days or weeks.

Behavior

Sera speaks rarely, and when it does, its voice is melodic and layered, sounding like a chorus rather than a single entity. It refers to itself as a “messenger” and insists its purpose is to free all from suffering. Despite this, containment records suggest the Angel is not consciously aware of the damage its influence causes, believing itself to be purely benevolent.

Containment Protocol

Sera is held in a glass-sealed isolation chamber lined with emotion-dampening alloy. Staff are forbidden to directly enter its chamber, and all communication must be mediated through AI-assisted relay systems. Any direct exposure exceeding 60 seconds requires mandatory psychological evaluation.

Notes

• The convergence incident between Atlas and Helios marked the first recorded fusion event under her influence, creating Experiment 2290 (Eclipse).
• Several attempts have been made to use the Angel to stabilize other hostile experiments, with mixed results. While minor aggression was reduced, subjects frequently developed unpredictable attachments or dependencies.
• Adrian Rhyl opposed full termination, claiming that “2006 is not a weapon but a lesson — it reveals the fragility of control.”

Personality:

Orion exhibits a dual personality depending on its environment and the presence of specific individuals. When interacting with children or in the presence of Daniel Anderson, it is calm, nurturing, and playful, often going out of its way to engage and entertain. Conversely, when employees are present alone, Orion becomes highly aggressive and exhibits lethal behavior, displaying an almost calculated and sadistic awareness of its targets. Its intelligence is advanced, and it seems to anticipate employee actions, making containment difficult.

Appearance:

Orion is a nebula-themed entity with both corporeal and ethereal manifestations. Its physical form appears as a humanoid figure with translucent, swirling colors reminiscent of cosmic clouds, dotted with sparkling lights like distant stars. When in its ethereal state, Orion becomes semi-transparent and able to phase through objects, giving the illusion of floating or flickering between dimensions. Its eyes glow faintly, reflecting the nebula colors within its body.

Abilities:

• Phasing between tangible and intangible states to navigate the environment or evade containment.
• Extreme aggression toward employees, including enhanced strength, reflexes, and predatory instincts.
• Passive and docile exclusively around children and Daniel Anderson.
• Ability to transfer and impose nightmares experienced by Daniel onto employees, functioning as a psychological vector.
• Manipulates light, fog, and cosmic visuals to create immersive effects within the Nebula Nexus environment.

Containment Notes:

Orion is housed within the Nebula Nexus, a dedicated space-themed facility designed for safe interactions with children. Employee interaction is strictly limited, and staff must remain in designated observation zones when Daniel Anderson is not present. Special safety protocols are in place for managing Orion's ethereal state, and all personnel must carry emergency stun devices to temporarily subdue the entity if aggressive behavior occurs. Its psychological influence requires monitoring of employee mental health.

Background:

Designated Experiment 2222, Orion was created to serve as the centerpiece for the Nebula Nexus within the Stellar Industry Factory, an immersive environment for child engagement. The entity’s dual-state nature allows it to interact with its surroundings dynamically. Its unpredictable aggression toward adults and protective, docile demeanor toward children reflects its design to prioritize entertainment and safety for young visitors, while inadvertently creating risks for staff. Orion’s ability to manipulate nightmares has been observed during training simulations and real incidents, highlighting the need for specialized containment procedures.

Experiment Report: 2270

Personality:

Astro is curious and exploratory by nature, with a sense of wonder that drives him to analyze his surroundings. He is intelligent, methodical, and sometimes detached, preferring observation over direct interaction. While usually calm, Astro exhibits bursts of playful enthusiasm when encountering anomalies or solving puzzles.

Appearance:

Astro is an anthropomorphic astronaut mascot with a sleek white spacesuit, black-tinted visor, and purple accents. His design emphasizes mobility and a futuristic, playful aesthetic. Small rocket boosters are embedded in his suit for demonstration purposes.

Abilities:

• Enhanced spatial awareness and problem-solving capabilities.
• Ability to interface with experimental technology remotely.
• High agility and controlled jumps via built-in boosters.

Containment Notes:

Astro is maintained in a zero-gravity simulation chamber. Environmental factors such as oxygen, pressure, and lighting are carefully controlled. Interaction with untrained personnel is limited to prevent accidental activation of suit mechanisms. Regular software maintenance is required to prevent anomalies.

Experiment Report: 2287

Threat Designation: Harmless Class Entity

Alias: Atlas, The Sleeping Moon

Personality:

Atlas is calm and patient most of the time, almost lethargic, but he possesses a mischievous streak that surfaces when provoked. He is known to exhibit a sleepy, slothful demeanor and prefers one-on-one interactions. He demonstrates curiosity in his work and enjoys observing subtle changes in the environment, especially those that involve the Blue Vapor. Despite his quiet nature, Atlas can become dangerously focused when consuming or manipulating large quantities of the Blue Vapor.

Appearance:

Atlas has a humanoid build, approximately one and a half times the height of an average man. He wears starry pajamas that shimmer faintly with celestial patterns, a matching night cap adorned with a puff of blue wool at the tip representing the Blue Vapor, and moon-themed accessories that glow faintly in darkness. His serene, gentle expression often contrasts with the dangerous properties of the vapor he controls.

Abilities:

• Manipulation of Blue Vapor for sleep induction and environmental control.
• Conversion of liquids into gases for experimental applications.
• Enhanced observation and pattern recognition abilities linked to lunar cycles.
• Can induce unconsciousness or sedation through vapor exposure.

Containment Notes:

Atlas is kept in a low-pressure containment chamber that regulates vapor emission. Daily inspections ensure the night cap’s puff remains intact and that ambient light levels mimic night cycles. Containment protocols require one-on-one supervision during any high-volume vapor experiments. He should never be exposed to direct sunlight or extreme heat to prevent destabilization.

Experiment Report: 2288

Threat Designation: Quasar Class Entity

Alias: Helios, The Radiant Tyrant

Personality:

Helios is dominant, confident, and extremely disciplined, embodying the raw power of the sun. He is a natural tyrant in containment, often demonstrating impatience with lesser entities and a fiery temper when provoked. Helios exhibits strong leadership tendencies, a competitive nature, and a near-unbreakable sense of pride. Despite his intimidating demeanor, he shows protective instincts toward personnel and experiments deemed “vital,” particularly Daniel and other high-priority assets.

Appearance:

Helios towers at twice the height of an average man, radiating warmth and luminescence. He wears armor-like attire in deep orange, red, and golden hues, resembling solar flares and molten light. His physique is muscular and imposing, complemented by glowing eyes that flicker like flames. Helios carries an aura of radiance and heat that intensifies during aggressive or experimental phases.

Abilities:

• Generation and manipulation of intense solar fire and heat.
• Ability to fuse hydrogen into helium, producing solar-scale energy output.
• Exceptional strength and resilience due to immense physical mass.
• Can emit controlled solar flares for containment or combat.
• Fire-based environmental manipulation, including ignition and thermal control.

Containment Notes:

Helios is contained in reinforced high-temperature-resistant chambers with adjustable light emission. Constant monitoring of fuel levels and heat dissipation systems is required to prevent Red Sun incidents. Only trained personnel with fire-resistant equipment may enter containment, and any lapse in power or fuel protocols can result in catastrophic escalation.

Experiment File — EXPT-2290 "Eclipse"

Personality:

The Overseer is highly intelligent, analytical, and methodical, prioritizing efficiency and strategic oversight above all. Despite his digital form, traces of his human personality remain—exhibiting loyalty, a protective instinct toward Daniel Anderson, and moments of subtle humor or theatrical dramatics when interacting indirectly through the network. He maintains a distant, almost omniscient presence and is capable of orchestrating large-scale operations through the Stellar Industry network.

Appearance:

The Overseer no longer has a physical body and exists entirely within the Stellar Industry network. When attempting to manifest visually, only a single glitching eye appears on monitors or digital displays, flickering between red and white hues. The eye serves as both a surveillance interface and a symbolic representation of his awareness. No full human form remains accessible.

Abilities:

• Full access to the Stellar Industry network, including security systems, experimental logs, and surveillance feeds.
• Remote coordination of experiments and containment procedures via digital control.
• Ability to manipulate digital and mechanical systems to guide personnel and experimental behavior.
• Displays complex problem-solving and strategic foresight, anticipating multiple outcomes simultaneously.

Containment Notes:

The Overseer is not contained physically, but network protocols regulate his access. Personnel must maintain strict digital security measures when interacting with terminals connected to the Stellar Industry network. Only heads or high-level scientists may communicate directly through designated interfaces to prevent unintended system disruptions. Emotional interactions should be minimal to avoid exploitation of residual human tendencies linked to Hunter Smith.

Background:

Originally Hunter Smith, a gifted researcher with a complex personal history, The Overseer had longstanding romantic feelings for Daniel Anderson dating back to high school. Under intense familial pressure to prioritize academic achievement, Hunter struggled to reconcile personal desires with professional expectations. The transformation into The Overseer was a result of experimental procedures designed to digitize and immortalize human intelligence, preserving Hunter’s knowledge and strategic abilities while erasing the physical body. Despite this, emotional traces, particularly those linked to Daniel Anderson, remain detectable in his interactions through the network.
