Containment Protocols:

RPC-909 is to be kept in a 10 m x 10 m x 10 m reinforced ballistic glass containment unit at Site-██. Subject is to be monitored at all times by a 24 hour router of no less than 4 personnel of minimum Level 2 Clearance. All cameras are to be inspected daily and maintained accordingly.

In the case of a containment breach or if RPC-909 becomes agitated, Class-C sedative gas is to be released via the containment unit's ventilation system. Any human child found in RPC-909's containment chamber is to be recovered immediately if possible. Missing persons location protocols are then to be initiated.

Level 3 research and medical staff are permitted to enter RPC-909's containment unit while RPC-909 is unconscious to perform routine physical checks. Any documents pertaining to medical operations to be performed on RPC-909 should be cleared by Dr. ███ before procedures are carried out.

Upon Dr. ███'s request, the containment cell has been issued a surplus of preschool educational toys in hopes of garnering attempts of interaction and/or basic learning from RPC-909 given its child-like disposition, as well as to occupy RPC-909 in hopes of reducing the risk of an abduction incident.

Description:

RPC-909 is a large, vaguely octopoid lifeform measuring 4.2 meters in height and 6,000 kg in body mass. Its origin is unknown, but is theorized to be extra-terrestrial as RPC-909's biochemistry appears to be methane-based. Tissue samples of RPC-909 contains a chemical structure similar to heptane1. RPC-909 is capable of levitation and hovers 2 meters above ground and is able to move through the air at observed maximum speeds of 8.9 m/s.

The anatomy of RPC-909 consists of a large head measuring roughly 2 meters in diameter with visible red optic glands behind the eye sockets. On each side of RPC-909's torso are three elastic tubular tentacles each ending in a five-digit humanoid hand. The front of RPC-909's ribbed thorax opens up to an exposed chest cavity that appears to absorb excess light of any source, appearing as a void within RPC-909's chest. Only a faint red glow within the center of the chest cavity has been observed.

The mouth of RPC-909 appears to resemble a beak, with mandible-like appendages that protrude from the lower jaw and two distinctly "human" eyes of a crimson coloration. Two symmetrical translucent tubes protrude from the sides of RPC-909's lower spine and connect to the front of the subject's lower abdominal region. The purpose of these tubes is unknown, but appear to be biological in nature, and thus must serve some biological function. One hypothesis from Dr. ████ is that the tubes, being of a slight reddish saturation, could be part of the circularity system or a filtration system that provides RPC-909 a means of sustenance, be it nutritional or respiratory.

The bottom of RPC-909's torso has five appendages, similar to crab legs, in a quadratic arrangement below the abdomen with the fifth longest leg within the center portion. However, these legs appear to serve no ulterior purpose, as RPC-909 does not appear to utilize them, though they often gyrate during levitation. It has been theorized that its levitation capabilities are somehow attributed to its legs.

The biological research of RPC-909 is still ongoing.

Psychologically, RPC-909 appears to act similarly to a human child around the age of 3 years. While RPC-909 unable to communicate verbally, RPC-909 is capable of understanding basic gestures and words without response, showing signs of intelligence but little engagement in communication. RPC-909 is also prone to violent "temper tantrums", in which it will vocalize loudly2 and lash out with its arms either against the walls of its containment unit or towards nearby personnel. These bouts of rage are usually triggered seemingly at random or after RPC-909 shows obvious signs of becoming irritable.

One anomalous property of RPC-909 is its spatial displacement of its own arms; when not directly observed, the hands of RPC-909 seem to teleport from containment into an alternate location.
Subject has been shown conducting this anomalous behavior from behind solid walls, within crevices and even behind its own back. Research shows that RPC-909's arm would manifest in a location around the world that contains large gatherings of children at play, most commonly either an outdoor or indoor play area.

Recovered CCTV footage has shown children being abducted by RPC-909's arms through slides, ball pits, and sand pits, before being violently dragged out of sight. The child will then reappear in RPC-909's containment chamber. During these breaches by RPC-909, the sighted children had been identified, and collating with the aforementioned footage and missing persons reports provided substantial evidence that these are indeed the same children that had been abducted.

After having abducted a child, RPC-909 will immediately place the child subject within its open chest cavity. The child, for all intent, no longer exists within the baseline reality.

While initially believed that the child was consumed by RPC-909, the incident during 08/05/██ led to a different conclusion for those taken by RPC-909.

On 08/05/██, Maintenance worker Grant Ellis, assigned to clean RPC-909's containment unit, was assaulted and supposedly consumed by RPC-909 after awaking it from a 'nap'. After a three day period, Grant Ellis was returned through the chest cavity, fully intact and alive but suffering moderate psychological damage comparable to those having been in confined spaces for a prolonged amount of time.
This incident lead to the conclusion that the children that RPC-909 has abducted are being 'stored' in some form of alternate space or dimension found within its chest cavity.

After this incident, Grant Ellis was debriefed and interviewed after an extensive psychiatric evaluation.
The following is a transcript of the interview:



Expedition Log:



Discovery:

RPC-909 was discovered after sightings of a "phantom" haunting [REDACTED] of the now defunct [REDACTED] indoor play areas and restaurants, following a number of child abduction reports and several surveillance tapes catching a "long pale arm" dragging several children into the ball pit. The disused basement of the establishment was raided and RPC-909 was captured with the help of Dr. ████ and Dr. Kessler. Witnesses were given Class-G amnestics and the surveillance footage was apprehended.

It was at first theorised there was more than one instance of RPC-909 when on 17/03/██, a child was discovered in RPC-909's containment chamber before being "consumed" into its chest cavity, matching the appearance of the recently missing [REDACTED] from [REDACTED], Detroit. It was then that RPC-909's anomalous abduction methods were discovered and the containment protocol was revised.


Addendum:

After ██ months of the initial capture and retrieval, Dr. ████ began to have several recurring dreams about obscure, child-like fantasy realms within a confined space, similar to a gigantic indoor play area, featuring appearances by RPC-909 and the "tagger" entity/avatar. Dr. ████ theorised that these 'dreams' were perhaps emitted from RPC-909 itself, projected through a weak form of telepathy as a way to communicate with him.
The following is a personal log from Dr. ████ on the dream situation:
