ABN-300

"The Marsian Arachnid"

ABN-300 instance during containment breach

## Containment Procedures

All instances of ABN-300 are to be kept in a 20x20x20 meter steel cell filled with 10°C saltwater reaching a height of 3 meters inside the cell, the water is to be replaced every 14 days. 5 kilograms of minced meat for each instance of ABN-300 should be introduced into the chamber every 4 days.

If the number of instances in the containment chamber is greater than 6, they are to be terminated until the number of instances is 4, the bodies of the deceased ABN-300 must be incinerated.

In the event of a containment breach, all escaped instances of ABN-300 must be recontained. If the ABN-300 instances are not recontained 48 hours after the containment breach, TCH-[REDACTED] must be used to locate the escaped instances.

## Description

ABN-300 is a carnivorous lifeform that was discovered on [REDACTED] on Mars, and then found on other locations (see Addendum 2). ABN-300 reproduces asexually every 3 to 7 days but ABN-300 appears to not be able to reproduce at temperatures higher than 15°C. The average lifespan of an ABN-300 instance is around 4 months.

Adult instances of ABN-300 ressemble large, spider-like organisms with hard, white wood-like skin which is adapted to survive marsian environment and can survive most bladed weapons but is extremely vulnerable to high temperatures.
ABN-300 does not appear to have any ocular organs and is theorized to use a form of echolocation to navigate in its environment. The "head" of ABN-300 possess a squid-like beak used for feeding and defecation.

ABN-300's internal anatomy ressembles that of ABN-████.

Adult instances of ABN-300 have the ability to undergo metamorphosis into a form which is adapted for their environment (See Experiment Log).

## Addendum 1: Discovery

**The following is a note written by Doctor [REDACTED] on first discovery of ABN-300.**

ABN-300

Entity Class: Abnormal, potentially biotic

Date of discovery: [REDACTED]

Entities are 2 large spider-like creatures that were found in a cave near Site-[REDACTED], they seem to be carnivorous but more tests are required.

## Addendum 2: ABN-300 in other locations

**The following are reports concerning ABN-300.**

Three ABN-300 instances were found devouring a man in Russia, MTF-1 "Ice Breakers" was dispatched.

One ABN-300 instance was observed near the city of Paris, amnestics administered to witnesses.

Four dead instances of ABN-300 were found in the sewers, cause of death unknown.

One gigantic ABN-300 instance was spotted walking in the city of New York, TCH-████ used. City-wide amnestics administered and all videos of the anomaly removed.

## Experiment Log

### Experiment 1

Procedure: ABN-300 was placed in a terrarium simulating aquatic environment.

Results: ABN-300 developed gill-like organs and became taller.

*Note: Interesting results. - Dr [REDACTED]*

### Experiment 2

Procedure: ABN-300 was placed in a terrarium simulating Outerspace.

Results: ABN-300 developed thick scales and curled into a ball.

*Note: Is that how it got to Earth ? - Dr [REDACTED]*

### Experiment 3

Procedure: ABN-300 was placed in a terrarium simulating LCT-[REDACTED].

Results: ABN-300 became highly hostile and breached containment, killing 4 people.

*Note: What did you expect ? - Dr [REDACTED]*
