Subject-2109's History

File ID: #2109-030

Access Level: 4

Classification: Top Secret

Entity Name: Subject-2109 (AKA: Clay Man)

Brief:

Subject-2109, colloquially referred to as "Clay Man," was first discovered in 2023 in an archaeological dig near the ancient city of Mohenjo-daro, Pakistan. The entity appears as a human-sized statue made entirely of clay and displays anomalous behavior including mobility and regeneration.

Physical Description:

Subject-2109 appears as a human-sized figure, approximately 3.1meters in height, composed entirely of a type of clay similar to that found at its discovery site. The figure's features are rudimentary and vaguely humanoid, without discernible details such as facial features or distinctive body shape.

Behavior and Abilities:

Despite its seemingly inanimate composition, Subject-2109 is capable of independent movement, displaying a level of flexibility and fluidity contrary to its clay composition. The entity is capable of manipulating its form to some extent, such as extending its limbs or altering its height.

Subject-2109's most extraordinary ability is its regenerative capability. When damaged, the entity can reform itself from the remaining clay, even from a substantially damaged state. The source of the additional clay material required for this regeneration is unknown.

Interaction Protocol:

Interaction with Subject-2109 requires Level 3 clearance or higher and must be done under supervision. Subject-2109 does not display aggressive behavior, but due to its ability to manipulate its form and its regenerative properties, caution is advised during interaction. Any damage to the entity should be reported immediately to Control.

History and Containment Efforts:

Subject-2109 was unearthed during an archaeological excavation in Mohenjo-daro, Pakistan, in 2023. After the discovery of its anomalous properties, the entity was transported to a secure facility for further study. Ongoing containment efforts focus on limiting its movement and preventing damage to its form, which triggers its regenerative ability.

Notable Incidents:

Incident 2109-02: During initial containment attempts, Subject-2109 was inadvertently damaged, resulting in a rapid regeneration event. The entity reformed in a matter of minutes, astonishing researchers.

Incident 2109-10: Subject-2109 successfully manipulated its form to slip through a narrow passage, breaching containment. Enhanced containment measures have since been implemented.

Additional Notes:

Subject-2109, or "Clay Man," presents an interesting example of an animate construct. Its origin and purpose remain enigmatic. Is it an artistic creation imbued with anomalous properties? Or could it be a relic from a forgotten civilization with unknown capabilities? Further study of Subject-2109 may provide invaluable insights into these questions.
