## Biography

### Past

In the mid-1990s, Diego Granteros, with the aim of containing and camouflaging the signals emitted by the object, as well as military operations in relation to the object, founded a local TV and radio station, called "TV Varminho". At the location, through research, the object's ability to teleport to different locations in a chaotic manner was confirmed, as well as, in constant exposure of the signals to the guinea pigs, the following results were detected:

> Difficulty in communication and verbal and written comprehension, memory loss, reports of constant hallucinations.

After the leak of documents about confidential activities and reported by newspapers in the Varminho city, the place became a tourist spot for curious people and passers-by seeking to discover more about the mysteries that afflict the broadcaster.

On a certain day, at 2 am, during the first direct connection with the object, Diego was the first to connect, "ascending" and transforming the signal next to him, originating Outsider. After Diego became the broadcast , the other members of the project also connected to the transmission, the environment changed and so did its *modus operandi*, hiding the place and all its existing practices in the region, coveting something beyond their understanding.

Aiming to achieve its objectives, Outsider began to incubate paranormal larvae in people to reproduce and create new Aliens, in addition to existing Doppelgangers, most of whom were the members of the TV Varminho Project themselves.

### Signals from the Other Side

Later, in 1997, during the investigation by The Five team in the Varminho city, interference in transmissions was found to be a major influence of TV Varminho signals in causing several mysterious disappearances that occur in the region.

When visiting the station tower, it is revealed through a vision of William Bonantos to Chico that the Outsider, a conscious and extremely intelligent creature, was responsible for the disappearances that occurred in the region, in search of the person chosen to carry out the Passage to the impossible place, Tenebris.

> "There is a passage, a passage that you can cross. You can help us open this passage, the passage to the impossible city. The bells are the keys to open the passage, everyone is connected to the signal, within the signal, the passage can be opened, the choice to make the passage to the impossible place is yours, reach the impossible place, connect to the bell. Find the passage..."

On the 6th floor of the tower, the team members find themselves in the main room with a large ornate bell and six capsules on the sides connected to the mechanism, four of which are empty, one with the presence of Dara inside it and another destroyed with a kind of silhouette of a body made of cables, being used by Diego Granteros in his direct connection to the unknown object.

During the investigation in the room, those present feel their worst premonition, He is here.
