MSCP-002

Item No.: MSCP-002
Object Class: Keter
Hazards: Sentient and violent cognitohazard
----Special Containment Procedures: MSCP-002 is to be contained in a 30x30x20 metre room at all times which is required to contain the environment and required temperature of MSP-002. The monster’s, due to their ability to reproduce well, are to be split throughout several facilities. Armed personnel are to be positioned at the gates to monitor activity 24/7. Walls are to be constructed with heat-resistant reinforces steel, and an outer layer of concrete; which will equal up to be 2 metres thick. Humidity is to stay at 34% and temperature is to be kept at a constant rate of 68 Celcius, since the room heats up by itself as well. Anti-flammable and protected camera’s are to be set up at the four corners of the room to provide a more safe environment. Level 4 and higher authorization is required to be granted access to the containment and observation chambers.
MSCP-002-1 is to be contained in a small incubator when young, and to be kept separate from 002. Humidity is not advised for MSCP-002-1 as it’s organ systems are developing and could kill MSCP-002-1. The temperature is to be kept at 1,000 to 1,200 degrees celcius, to mimic the heat of lava. Camera’s are to be set up behind a wall of heat-resistant glass. Level 4 and higher authorization is needed to be granted access.
MSCP-002-2 is to be contained in a room similar to that of MSCP-002 and eventually be let back into the society of 002. MSCP-002-2’s temperature is to be kept at a solid 100 Celcius and 20% humidity. Level 4 and higher authorization is required to be granted access to MSCP-002-2. 
MSCP-002-3 is to be isolated from it’s entire species, in a 10x10x10 room. These require around 6 guards 24/7. Temperature and humidity is to be kept same as that to MSCP-002. The walls are to be mae of solid steel and to be at least 4-5 metre’s thick. Level 5 authorization is required to enter the chamber. No testing on D-Class is ever authorized for MSCP-002-3, neither is opening the containment doors unless the MSCP-002-3 is confirmed to be dead. MSCP-002-3 is needed to have a tracking device planted in it, and kept on 24/7. 
Containment cells are to be cleaned every once a month for 002, with the MSCP itself being moved to a temporary containment cell; this usually being a cage. While cleaned, all equipment and security protocols must be tested; including doors, camera’s, current environment, and walls, to ensure that the 1992 incident does not repeat itself. Following incident 7777-4383-1 all feeding machines have to be checked and tested like all equipment. 
All personnel must wear 601 CPA Aluminized Suits when the temperature’s are off. This includes D-Class as well, during testing stages. If not worn, the person will be set aflame immediately and die. 
----Description: MSCP-002(Fire lizards or better known as Flame Monsters) are large and carnivorous dinosaur-like creatures. Males are about 2 and ½ metres in height and 4 in length, while females are shorter by half a metre. They are pack based predators and rely on their skills to communicate. Their skin is extremely hot and flammable, useful to keep their required temperature up. Their weight is usually around 260 to 270 kg, though some are even heavier. MSCP-002 varies in gender, making it easier to identify males from females. Females have stronger legs, short necks, and 5 fingered claws. Meanwhile males, are a bit weaker in terms of legs, but their bite force is 10x greater than that of a Great White, they have long necks usually about half a metre in length, and 4 fingered claws. They occasionally secrete unidentifiable liquid drip from their mouth. The liquid has been collected and observed to go up to 200 celsius. It is unknown what this liquid is, it has been thought to be their saliva, a liquid used to kill prey, or liquid used to inseminate the females. All of this information has been proven wrong. They have sharp teeth going up to about 4.2 to 6.1 centimeters in length. Eyes are usually orangish, with their iris being a bit more red. Surgeries and autopsies have been performed on dead MSCP-002. Their brains are found to be small, yet they are extremely intelligent. Showing signs of understanding us and our equipment, and older MSCP-002 eventually start to speak our language fluently. MSCP-002’s lifespan ranges from 30-40 years. 
Their reproduction system consists of being in extremely warm environments. Usually near a volcano or lava in the summer or spring. If in lava, both males and females will go under the lava where they will most likely mate and reproduce. It is unknown how this system works, and is hard to observe. Due to the fact that female MSCP-002’s are rare, most males are quite aggressive with not only each other but with any personnel. Observing the mating season will end up with aggression and damaged equipment, which is not ideal. After inseminating the female and having the female lay the egg, appearing as a round ball with a brown hardened crust. Retrieving the egg is the most difficult part and usually ends with several foundation members dead. After the egg has been retrieved it is intended to be kept at a stable high temperature. The egg will hatch in about 4 to 5 days, and from it will be born MSCP-002-1
MSCP-002-1 is a newborn of an MSCP-002. Usually varying in about half a metre in length and about 1 kilo. Being very fragile, they must be kept with extreme care and at high temperature. Their eyes are usually sealed shut and they remain in one place until a week after their hatching. When they first start developing their fire glands and their ‘saliva’, it will appear blue and will give off higher temperatures than adult MSCP-002’s. In about 2 to 3 years they will grow into MSCP-002-2. 
MSCP-002-2 is the teen or young adult stage of MSCP-002. Usually they are the most active of their species. That being noted, active will not mean aggressive. Though at the end of this stage they will become aggressive as time progresses. During this time, their heat glands will reveal a more orange tone of fire rather than blue. They’re about 2 metre’s in length and half a metre tall. This is the stage when their intelligence has also started developing, they begin to understand us and to understand our mechanics and weapons. Incident 7324-88-9 has shown that they have figured out how to get out, which is why the doors need monthly checking as well.
Occasionally there are cases of MSCP-002-3. A mutated version of MSCP-002 that has from what we know a 0.2% chance of developing. They are stronger, smarter, and more deadly. Because they are violent they are contained seperately in a secure facility unknown to anyone but the O5. They are larger, usually 5 metre’s in length and 4 metre’s in height. They develop when the embryo in the egg is overheated and if the embryo doesn’t die, an MSCP-002-3 will hatch. Their heat glands are usually more active, thus producing more fire and heat. Studies have shown that they are able to see behind them, and ambushing them is impossible. So far only 3 cases of MSCP-002-3 have happened. The first one is contained in a maximum security cell, while the other two were terminated during the hatching period. These monsters are unable to reproduce due to their nature of being highly aggressive. If placed with a male or a female, MSCP-002-3 will tear them apart and cannibalize them. 
The regular MSCP-002 does not appear to have any organs except that of a digestive and circulatory tract plus the nervous system and the brain. The largest mystery and question that has been given is how does it survive with no respiratory tract? It breathes, and it can suffocate/drown but it does not seem to have any lungs. 
MSCP-002’s hunting strategies are usually the same. With the prey being lured by a certain sound, and then getting pounced on from behind. That is when the other ones run to their prey as well and eat it. Though recently tests have been shown that their hunting patterns are becoming more unorganized and chaotic rather than planned out and well executed. 	
There’s more than a couple of weaknesses of MSCP-002. It for a long time seemed, that water was their primary and most powerful weakness. But recently, tests have concluded that new MSCP-002’s that are born are more resistant to water due to their fire glands being more open and stronger. Bullets can be effective against MSCP-002’s but a large amount of rounds need to be used in order to even injure one. This is due to the bullets often being melted before they can be hit. Stabbing MSCP-002 is uneffective and will only make it more aggressive. The most effective weapon against them is either a nuclear explosion or water. Dismembering living MSCP-002’s is also ineffective as they have been shown to regenerate at an extremely quick speed, though this does make them a lot more weaker than they were with their original limbs. There have been several experiments made on them as well, to see if they taste good. According to Dr. Sun’s experiments, they taste magnificent. We are unsure if this is due to Dr. Sun’s unnatural power, but when fed to a regular D-Class personnel they loved the food and were happy for more than a couple of days before erupting into flames.

Addendum 4383. 04-23-1994: Test ████-██
<Begin log: skip to 00h-52m-28s>
D-4483 transported from Cell-02-B to containment 002 Containment Area. 
Dr. █████: D-4483, please advance to the center of the Containment Chamber. If you resist, you will be terminated immediately.
D-4483 advances forward, shaking intensely. 
Dr. █████: Guards, close the containment doors.
D-4483 looks back as the doors behind him seal shut, he is then distracted by a rustle coming from his left side. He slowly steps back, before feeling a searing pain in his back. He falls to the ground as MSCP-002’s rush him, tearing him apart as he is burned and eaten alive.
Dr. █████: *Takes several notes*
Dr. █████: Experiment ended.
Dr. █████: *Retreats the room*
<End Log>
Addendum 3483. 09-12-2017: Test ████-██-█
<Begin Log: Skip to 01h-23m-45s>
D-1457 transported from Cell-13-A to 002 Containment Area.
Dr. ███████: D-1457 please enter the containment area.
D-1457 enters with no hesitation, and hears doors shut behind him.
Dr. ███████: Good, now please investigate the area.
D-1457 proceeds to walk around the containment area in his suit; he proceeds to find nothing. As he turns and starts to trodge back towards the entrance, he sees a single MSCP-002.
D-1457: Uhh! What should I do!
Dr. ███████: Try to interact with it.
D-1457: H- Hello?
MSCP-002 proceeds to sit there staring at him. 
D-1457 then hears a growl from above. He looks up, seeing around 6 to 7 MSCP-002’s hang onto the ceiling. They pounce down on him, and consume him. His screams are cut short.
Dr. ██████: *Stops recording*
Dr. ██████: *Retreats the room*

----Addendum - 002 - 01: MSCP-002 is to be provided with fresh victims whenever requested. MSCP-002 also tastes wonderful and can be used as a source of food. The meat is tender, soft, chewy, and has great nutritional value. So far, I’ve tried grilling, barbecuing, frying, steaming, baking, sautéing, plus various other methods, and it has all tasted wonderful so far. Just remember to put the flesh in cold water for a while before eating it- you don’t want yourself to burst into flames. - Dr. Sun
Addendum - 002 - 01: A couple of researchers have given MSCP-002’s flesh to a D-class. At first they said it tasted delightful, before erupting into flames in about 14 hours. The flesh was cooled and was grilled. We are unsure if this is due to Dr. Sun’s abilities, but whenever the flesh is given to a regular human, they die within 24 hours or less. Because I am in charge of this project, I will look further into what causes this.  -Dr. ████
