Item #: EA-067

Object Class: Dangerous

Name: Patterns in the Shadows

Containment: EA-067 is to be contained within a reinforced containment chamber at Outpost Epsilon. The chamber is to be constructed with thick, soundproof walls and equipped with airtight seals to prevent any form of communication or interaction between EA-067 and personnel. All personnel entering the containment chamber must wear specialized noise-canceling headphones and visual-distortion goggles to minimize the risk of exposure to EA-067's anomalous effects.

EA-067's containment chamber is to be monitored at all times through surveillance cameras and audio recording devices. In the event of any breach or attempted escape, Outpost Epsilon security personnel are authorized to use lethal force to prevent EA-067 from leaving its containment area.

Profile: EA-067 is a living anomaly resembling a tall humanoid figure approximately 7 feet in height. Its body is shrouded in a dark, form-fitting garment that appears to shift and ripple as if composed of constantly moving shadows. The face of EA-067 is featureless, with no visible eyes, nose, or mouth. Its arms are elongated and end in sharp, claw-like appendages.

The primary anomalous property of EA-067 is its ability to emit a series of high-frequency auditory patterns, hereafter referred to as EA-067-A. When exposed to EA-067-A, individuals within auditory range will begin to experience intense auditory and visual hallucinations, often including distorted perceptions of reality, vivid nightmares, and disorienting sensations. Prolonged exposure to EA-067-A has been shown to lead to severe psychological trauma, loss of cognitive functions, and in some cases, permanent psychosis.

EA-067 has demonstrated the ability to manipulate EA-067-A to target specific individuals or groups, causing them to experience tailored hallucinations based on their fears, memories, and personal experiences. These hallucinations can range from seemingly harmless illusions to highly distressing and traumatic scenarios.

Despite its lack of visible facial features, EA-067 is capable of communicating with individuals by modulating the frequency and intensity of EA-067-A. The entity has shown an understanding of multiple languages and can convey its intentions and demands through auditory patterns.
