Alien Investigation Force
Welcome to the AI Force main page! We've been around a long time. That kind of thing carries weight. But we assume many of you don't know who we are, so let us explain a little bit about ourselves.
History of the Unabashed Ripoff:
In 1931, our founder (who shall not be named for the time being) was born. He was a very quirky fellow, never one for much chit chat. He also didn't have many friends growing up, and once he got out of school, he didn't have much to do, either. His parents didn't really care what he did, and our founder had nothing particular in mind. So, he just wandered about endlessly.
One day, he was walking during a thunderstorm, like an idiot. Around him was nothing but tall wheat fields. As you might expect, he got struck by lightning. The force knocked him off his feet. In all honesty, he should have died right then and there. However, as he lay on the ground, he was given a vision of two cogs, spinning together, in the cosmos. An AI generated version (courtesy of the Dall-e Mini/Craiyon AI program, please credit them if using these images; all images, unless otherwise stated, are generated with that program) has been provided below:
Inspired by these transpiring events, in 1956, our founder opened up the Alien Investigation Force, with the aim to contain and protect alien entities from human forces, as well as study them and see if they could ever be incorporated into normal, human society. Then our founder got run over by a double decker bus.
Although our founder is long gone, his legacy remains with us to this very day. Below you will see links to various entities we have captured and studied. Each link will lead you to a page that lists the being's name, age, and various other details. We also listed if the creature is alive or not, based on a scale. Extinct is self-explanatory; the creature no longer exists, nor does any other known creature that is of its same type or species. Endangered usually means that the entity we have of a species is dead, but there may be a few others out there. Living is the default rating for all creatures who are alive in our care. We also have a Danger level ranking, also based on a scale. The first level is Pacifist. Pacifist generally indicates that the creature is very docile, and not prone to attacking at all. In fact, pacifistic entities generally abhor violence. Next is Peaceful. Peaceful entities may attack, but only if they feel they are strong enough or willing enough to do so. They tend to be the most terrified of entities, acting like scared rabbits. They're also less likely to try and defend themselves. Because of this, we have taken it upon ourselves to avoid any experiments that may hurt Peaceful entities, physically, mentally, or otherwise. These entities are instead treated more as pets or scared children. All experiments we try on them involve safe, pleasant interactions where we try to get them to act less scared, if at all possible. The next level after that is Friendly. Friendly entities are more likely than Peaceful entities to actually defend themselves, although they're most comparable to a well-trained, well-treated Golden Retriever, or other such "friendly" dogs. These entities also tend to be more curious about their surroundings, are more likely to want to help anyone and everyone, and are also more likely to try and interact with various other entities in the facility. The next level is Docile. Docile entities are more prone to attacking than Friendly entities, however, that only happens if Docile entities feel provoked. As long as they are treated well, and not poked and prodded too much, they are generally safe to be around. The next level is Angry. Angry entities are more prone to anger than other entities listed prior, and, as such, are also more likely to attack. However, they are usually quite easy to calm down, once our faculty get to know them. As long as they stay calm, they are not deemed too threatening. The next level is Unintentionally Damaging. These entities, as the title suggest, are prone to more threatening attacks, and can even kill in rare cases, but they have been deemed as having no control over such things. These entities must be cared for carefully, but regardless of the danger, we gladly welcome them here at our facility. The next level is Unpredictable. Unpredictable entities, as you might have guessed, can be hard to deal with. They tend to be quite violent sometimes, often with no rhyme or reason. However, we still value their inclusion here at our facility, and believe that despite how unpredictable, and often deadly, they are, these entities still deserve to live a good life, or as good of one as we can provide. Next is Dangerous. These entities are simply dangerous, and must be handled only by our second-highest level of faculty. These entities may have something that makes them calm or even docile, but that can be hard to determine right away, and some entities with this label take years or even longer to provide our researchers with any information that can help calm them down. The last level is Ripper. These entities are the most dangerous. All faculty put in charge of handling them must have a specific, protective suit, and authorized, company-grade weapons on them AT ALL TIMES. Rippers are quite intelligent, often killing for sport or just for the fun of it. However, for whatever reason, they have never tried to kill any of the other entities in the facility. We don't understand what comradery they share with other entities, or why even our most pacifistic entities don't become an easy target in their eyes, but we are thankful for that. If you are wondering, yes, we did fire the buffoons responsible for putting Peaceful entities in the same room as a Ripper entity. With that out of the way, how about you look through our index of entities?
Entity 7:
Name: "The Disappearance Portrait"
Type: A portrait of a man or woman from the 1800s
Age: Unknown
Living Status: Living?
Danger Level: Dangerous
Description: This portrait is very interesting. We found it at a thrift shop back in 1978. The shop owner was so terrified of it, she gave it to our employees for free. The owner claimed her husband was last seen looking at the portrait, and then he vanished into thin air. Of course, the police never believed her, but we have reason to.
After putting the portrait in its own room, we had various employees look at the portrait and do various things to see how the portrait would react. At first, nothing appeared to be happening. Then, we noticed that various employees were going missing. After much research, we realized that this portrait was "capturing" people, and trapping them in the portrait. The person in the portrait even changed to reflect the person who got trapped in the portrait. This is the reason why we are giving it the Danger Level of Dangerous. However, it's not receiving the Ripper ranking, since we have no clue if people trapped in the portrait die. We also have no idea how long it takes for people to stare at the portrait before they get trapped in it. This entity seems reminiscent somewhat of "The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde. Because having people stare at this portrait means sending them somewhere unknown, or perhaps killing them, all personnel who are asked to handle this entity have been trained to only dust it and keep it clean; we fear that if it gets too degraded, worse things may happen. That could also be the overactive imaginations of the employees, although enough of them have dreamed about the portrait being left to rot and then spilling out blood for us to not want to take any chances. All employees who handle this entity are told to not stay inside the room for any longer than an hour at most, and should try to get out as soon as possible. There must always be two or more employees present when they go into the room. This is done in the hopes that if people are getting literally sucked into the portrait, then there may be hope of saving them. We have yet to experience any need to see if this true, thankfully.
