Item Number: 002
Anomaly Class: Code Green
Containment Protocol: Anomaly-002 is to be contained in a one-half (1/2) meter ornate glass vase atop a one (1) meter white pedestal. Any personnel who are forced to handle Anomaly-002 must wear a pair of thick gardener's gloves so as to avoid being pricked by Anomaly-002's thorns. Personnel who wish to enter Anomaly-002's containment cell must have a Level 2 Security Clearance at minimum.
Anomaly Description: Anomaly-002 is a seemingly-ordinary rose flower of the species Rosa kordesii that resides in an ornate glass vase atop a white pedestal. The rose in question is approximately 0.35 meters in length and has an abnormal number of "thorn" prickles scattered about its stem (specifically, 32). The rose is extraordinarily healthy and has never been observed to wither in the 58 years that the rose has been in the Department's possession.
For reasons unknown, Anomaly-002 is only capable of survivng in an ornate glass vase atop a white pedestal. Being removed from its vase or placed inside of an alternate container will instantly cause the rose to begin decomposing at an advanced rate. Being returned to its vase and pedestal will return Anomaly-002 to its previous healthy state.
Anomaly-002's anomalous properties manifest when in contact with any organic matter. It appears that the anomaly's stem is safe to handle, as its properties seem relegated to the prickles in particular. Any living biological matter that comes into contact with Anomaly-002's prickles begins to decompose at an advanced rate mirroring the rate at which the anomaly itself decays. If Anomaly-002 is out of its vase and decaying when contact is made, then the subject's state of decomposition will instantly accelerate to that of Anomaly-002. The decaying effects of Anomaly-002 are as of yet irreversible.
|-|In-Game Info=Anomaly-002 can be found in its cell in Sector-B. Touching it will lead to death.
