B E A N

**B E A N (Not to be confused with BeanCoin)**is a galactic resource which is the source of The Number God's assignment process. It is known that the r/num universe contains many oval shaped energy sources called B E A Ns, which the Number God uses to assign people their numbers. was theorized on the Discord server on the 18th of January by #994 u/radioactivekrypton, #747 u/OctopusSporadicShift and #96 u/ippordsim.

B E A Ns are formed from high amounts of energy being accumulated and compressed. High-tech machines known as B E A Nmakers are typically used by the Science Department. B E A Ns can come in many different forms, which depend on the energy levels and stability.

The Scientists created an Anti-B E A N, which was hidden from the public eye for over a week due to an explosion. The Scientists claimed that it was an asteroid that hit the lab. Once the information was revealed about the Anti-B E A N, it went missing and shortly after The Negative Wizard appeared. It is thought that the Negative Wizard stole it.

B E A N is an energy source, which consists of an energy-rich black liquid, surrounded by an evaporable shell.

See Science Department for a list of Scientists.

## Types of **B E A N (Discovered)**

B E A N: a B E A N that stores high amounts of positive energy, most of which the Number God consumes.

Anti-B E A N: a B E A N that stores high amounts of negative energy, which is consumed by Evil numbers like the negatives. The Scientists have formed a Anti-B E A N in experiment 5

Galactic-B E A N: A soft, fragile bean with an easily evaporable shell. Not much else is known about the Galactic-B E A N, despite the Scientists creating one.

Cold-B E A N: a Positive B E A N thats energy level is very low. They are very dense, with a thick shell and a blue color with black splotches.

Portal-B E A N/Time-B E A N: a Positive B E A N that was created with a unknown mass in the generator. A time-portal forms from the bean, that’s time directly correlates to the age of the unknown mass. Almost nothing is known about a Portal-B E A N, because they form into portals milliseconds after the B E A N was created.

Neutral-B E A N: Mostly thought to be theoritical, this B E A N contains positive and negative energy (doesn't have to be even). It was created once but wasn't very good, and was originally though to be R I C E. If this a real B E A N or a messed up normal B E A N we don't know. The singular sample is currently being analysed by the Scientists.

Hot-B E A N: A B E A. N that requires a hot temperature and high energy to make. A lot more higher energy than a regular B E A N. I's texture is like a balloon. It has asoft shell and it's B E A N juice is gas.

Electro-B E A N: A B E A N that is created while electricity is pumped into the chamber. It was observed to be light blue, but other physical properties are unknown.

Combo-B E A N: A combo-B E A N is not one type of B E A N in specific, but a B E A N made from a machine that can feed two sets of energy from two sets of subjects into one individual B E A N. This B E A N can be a mixture of two or more different types, for example, A Normal-Cold B E A N or a Hot-Anti B E A N.

## The First Era of Experiments

### **B E A N Experiment #1 "Failed Attempt"**

**Conducted by: #**96

**Documented by: #**997

**Date:** 1/18/2020

**Subjects:** #747, #833, #994, #997

#### **Basic Summary:**

96 began by collecting energy from the air. After discovering that air accumulated energy at a painfully slow rate, the idea was brought forth to use existing numbers for their energy. The Subjects were connected to the machine and their energy was leeched, speeding up the process by an estimated 500%. As energy was leeched, subjects reported feelings of dizziness, sleepiness, and nausea. Near around 70% power, some subjects began losing fingers and limbs. Soon, seizures and loss of brain function followed. The machine began to radiate, glowing brighter and brighter. It was reportedly “as bright as the sun” near completion. Nearby power fluctuated and even cut for nearby establishments, which was odd given the only energy should have been coming from the Subjects. Nearing the end, the speed slowed considerably, though it is unclear why the rate slowed. Upon completion, an explosion rattled the lab, and #96’s computer bricked. It reached a temperature far beyond anything comprehensible. All subjects supposedly experienced simultaneous seizures after the blast, uttering nonsense for a few minutes. Upon retrieval, it was discovered that a Bean was successfully created, but was damaged. It leaked a viscous, black fluid, the properties of which have not yet been tested. Some gas was also released, but it was not contained. It was fairly transparent and colorless.

**Discoveries:**

* It is possible to create Beans artificially.
* The energy within Beans is directly related to the energy of Numbers.
* The composition of numbers is tied to their energy level, as some lost focus or limbs upon having energy drained.
* Beans are a solid shape filled with black fluid and transparent gas.

### **B E A N Experiment #2 “Massive Breakthrough”**

Conducted by #96

Recorded by: #593

Date: 1/19/2020

Subjects: #9, #747, #891.

#### Basic Summary

The purpose of this experiment was to attempt to create a stable B E A N (energy orbs used in the number assignment process) after it was realized in the last experiment that B E A N S could be created in an artificial setting. The three volunteers we used to siphon energy were deliberate, as they were all anti-primes with a greatest common factor of 9. This is important as the larger the GCF is of the numbers siphoned, the more stable the created B E A N will be. (As hypothesized in the previous experiment.)

The experiment was successful (unlike the previous one) as after all was said and done, we created a positive B E A N of the energy level 73,953 (The LCM of 9x747x891) and stability level of 9 which has been sealed in a vacuum chamber for later study.

The full process of the experiment is described below:

00:00:30 - #9, #747, and #891 enter the energy siphon generator.

00:01:05 - #96 activates master switch 1.

00:01:20 - #96 activates master switch 2.

00:01:45 - generator begins siphon after activation.

00:02:50 - generator reaches 3% power.

00:04:05 - generator reaches 6% power. Nothing unusual noted.

00:05:55 - generator reaches 12% power. Nothing unusual noted.

00:06:00 - generator reaches 18% power.

00:06:20 - generator reaches 38% power. Is increasing abnormally fast.

00:06:30 - generator reaches 42% power.

00:09:30 - generator reaches 60% power, rate of growth is slowing.

00:11:00 - generator reaches 69% power. Nice.

00:15:00 - generator reaches 75% power. Still nothing abnormal noted.

00:18:32 - generator reaches 90% power. Machine beings glowing. Side effects are occurring. #9 "feels electrified." #747's hands are turning blue. An unusual smell is noted.

00:20:53 - generator reaches 97% power.

00:21:51 - generator reaches 99% power. #747 notes it "smells like cheese." The generator is glowing brighter.

00:22:10 - generator dims quickly, something is glowing inside the machine.

00:25:24 - #96 opens the door of the machine, inside is a hovering, glowing purple object with the number 73,953 on it which is believed to be a positive B E A N.

00:31:25 - #96 seals the B E A N away as certain numbers feel overwhelmed to eat the B E A N which could have catastrophic consequences. (As a side note, this effect should be studied later in a more controlled environment.) This concludes the experiment. The B E A N is still in storage.

#### Final Notes

Further research is required later to determine the capabilities of this B E A N, and I recommend it's done with few researchers as the compulsion to "eat the B E A N" seems extremely dangerous. Any further experiments should be done in a way to prevent this from happening as the consequences of eating something of such a power level would like be catastrophic.

### **B E A N Experiment #3 “Absolute Zero”**

**Conducted by:** #994

**Recorded by**: #994

**Date:** 1/19/2020

**Subjects**: #96, #4

The purpose of the Third Bean Experiment is to create a Bean that has a lower amount of energy, meaning a more stable Bean. The subjects used in the experiment were 96 and 4. It was hypothesised that the lower the Lowest Common Multiple of the subjects, the lower the energy level.

#### Basic Summary

The two machine operators, 747 and 994, flick the two master switches for the machine’s activation. Not long after starting, the machine red out that all of it’s systems were running fine. When it reached 14%, the ventilation system failed and 747 had to reset it. The ventilation stayed at below average conditions for the rest of the experiment. The temperature seemed to fluctuate from a low of around -20 degrees C to a high of 20 degrees C. At around 25%, the machine was using 34% of the city’s power. The Machine was using 27gb of 96’s RAM. The ventilation froze briefly, but that was quickly fixed. The speed that the machine was running at increased, and the machine got colder and colder. When it reached 100%, the machine made a loud click noise, and 994 turned off the machine. There was a Bean in the chamber, and it was a new type of Bean, called a Cold Bean. ===

#### Analysis of Cold Bean:

The black liquid known as Bean Juice discovered in Experiment 1 was frozen in the Cold Bean. The Bean’s Shell was around 3cm thick, which is over 5 times as thick as the other Bean. The Bean’s size was slightly above average. It weighed 2 tonnes, which is over 20,000 heavier than the original Bean. The machine was unable to display the Bean’s density, instead it displayed “§§§§”. The shape was Bean shaped, the same shape as the other Beans. The color of the Bean was light blue with dots of black. The Bean had an estimated temperature of -270C, or 3 Kelvin. Energy Level of merely 96.

#### Final Notes

Numbers with a small Lowest Common Multiple will create a Cold Bean. ===
Cold Beans have different properties to normal Beans. They are thicker, blue and fat heavier and denser. People still have an urge to consume any B E A Ns in the vicinity, and those with below average sanity ratings can have their minds taken over. The facility has since been put into Restricted access, following Incident 747-C.

### **B E A N Experiment #4 “Quantum Anomaly”**

[23:07] Energy level confirmed at 1,647,065,952. Time Travel deemed possible.

[23:11] Containment Chamber put under lockdown until further notice.

#### Results

Failure and a Success at the same time, due to quantum anomalies.

Time Travel has been proven possible, along with the Time B E A N.

This goes against science, however, as wormholes such as these require massive amounts of negative mass. This shows that Beans do not follow the traditional science laws, and must be looked at further.

Because of the portal, 96 now has a pet Velociraptor.

### **Bean Experiment #5 “Null”**

A critical error caused the main logs to be deleted, but 693 made a video backup, luckily

1. The Second Experiment Saga begun a few weeks after the Original Experiment Saga ends. It begun with the departure of the current Head Scientist 96, where he gives the Head Scientist rank to 72, and 994 (who had been personally taught how to use the B E A N makers) was now the head of technology. Many things that are not to do with B E A N also happened, like the failed Robot Uprising, and the Imaginary Invansion. The Second Experiment Saga ended after the lab was destroyed by 747.

## The Second Era of Experiments

### **Neutral B E A N Experiment “The Invasion”**

This experiment was made by 558 who subjected a B E A N to his number energy and anti-B E A N power surges that are going throughout num. He originally thought it to be R I C E, but R I C E was proven false. He then decided that it was a Neutral B E A N. It had 70% Positive energy and 30% Negative energy. It is unknown whether this is a true Neutral B E A N, or a messed up regular B E A N. It was given to the scientists for analysis. The scientists and 558 realised that the power from the Neutral B E A N was going down, meaning that it was made poorly. The test results are unknown.

### **Bean Experiment #6 “Heatwave”**

Bean Experiment #6 created a Hot B E A N. There is currently no logs of this experiment.

### **Bean Experiment #7 “Electronica”**

Bean Experiment #7 was a failed attempt to make an Electro Bean.

#### **Details:**

LCM (predicted energy) = 123,428,197,682,769,330

GCF (predicted stability) = 1

Stability rating: EXTREMELY LOW [Warning!]

Status: Failed at 50%

Link: https://youtu.be/cg7RPS3lx68

#### **Notes:**

Probability of success increases drastically with the increase of the Stability rating (GCF), and slowly decreases with the increase of the predicted energy levels (LCM).

## The Third Era of Experiments

The Third Era began after the lab had been rebuilt after 747 exploded it during the Imaginary Invasion. This era is the one we are currently in.

### **Bean Experiment #8 “Amalgamation”**

Conductor: 994

Logger: 693

Subjects = Chamber A: 72, 102, 1531 Chamber B: 693, 2810, 558

Energy Output = Chamber A: 1873944 Chamber B: 60367230

Notes = "Dual chamber experiment. 3 in A, 3 in B. It was a mistake adding 1531 to the chamber."

Start time: 00:12UTC

[00:13] 10% - 2810 notes their skin is becoming transparent.

[00:14] 16% - Small, deep red particles floating around the hatch.

[00:14] ALERT: VENTILATION OFFLINE. 1531 destabilizing. 3428 completely failed to fix vents.

[00:15] 2810 claiming to see the equations of the universe. 1531 is becoming very unstable.

[00:15] 25%. Ventilation recovering. 693[0] comments on not consuming oxygen due to being a synth.

[00:15] Ventilation restored. 2810 notes breathing difficulty, along with complete skin transparency.

[00:16] 38%. 693[0]'s skin turning transparent, notes they can see their cybernetics.

[00:16] 38%. Energy buildup error suspected.

[00:17] 38%. Bean pipes confirmed blocked.

[00:17] 2810 possibly going into shock due to being able to see their insides. 994 asks who is thin, so that they can enter the machine to clear the blockage. 693[0] attempts to unclog the machine.

[00:18] 693[0] lightly burns their hand unblocking the pipe, but successfully unblocks it.

[00:18] 1531 experiencing further mental entropy.

[00:18] 34, 35, 37%. 1531 claims to hate the French

[00:19] 1531 is breaking down. 2810 attempting to memorize hallucinated equations. 693[0] complains that they can hear 1531 screaming from the other room, over both generators.

[00:19] 45%. 1531 now concerning everyone, deep red particles in the hatch are getting larger.

[00:20] 34, 27, 25%. ALERT: Chamber destabilizing. 1531 screaming something about Imaginaries, along with anime.

[00:20] 11, 3%, 1%. Chamber Failure. Particles destabilized and dissipated.

[00:20] 2810 and 693[0] both very concerned as they are both still transparent. 693[0] notes they are very transparent, they can only see their cybernetics, and even those are turning transparent.

[00:20] 994 fits a stability upgrade module, and restarts the chambers.

[00:21] 11%, 13%. Multiple people screaming to get 1531 out of the machine, and into containment. 1531 confirmed (temporarily) insane.

[00:22] 29%. 994 deployed heavy tranquilizer over 1531. 72 attempted to run kill command on 1531.

[00:22] 34%, 46%. Rapid increase confirmed. 693[0] fails a reference to Aleph-Zero.

[00:23] 693[0] notes that they're now "just going invisible, cool", but can still see.

[00:23] 67%. 2810's head rolls back, but they appear conscious.

[00:23] 71%. 72 is now destabilizing. 102 notes that instead of honking they're now gobbling. 1531 is glowing intensely. 994 is very concerned, despite being the one the put 1531 into the machine.

[00:23] 693[0] is temporarily convinced that 72 is not in either B E A N chamber.

[00:23]  96%. Temporary silence until the progress meter gets to 97%.

[00:24] 1531 is glowing a ton. 2810 is grabbing the chair so hard their knuckles are white. 693[0] tries to ask 2810 how invisible they are. 2810 responds that their skin is invisible, nothing else. 693[0] replies that they're almost completely invisible.

[00:24] 100%. As the machine slows to a stop, it is glowing red, and a small red object has appeared in the bean hatch. 72 has temporarily gone insane.

[00:25] 994 requests everyone to exit the machine and step onto the medical pad. 693 notes they're almost completely invisible. 2810 notes their skin is transparent, their muscles are translucent, and the rest is opaque.

[00:26] Everyone exits the chamber. 72 restabilizes. 1531 is restabiliz\_ing\_. Several people collapse on the healing pad, then get back up energized.

[00:27] 693[0] is invisible.

[00:28] Bean analysis complete:

**Color**: Deep Red

**Size**: Below Average

**Shape**: Bean (2810: Are they ever \_not\_ a bean shape? 994: No, they're not)

**Texture**: "Sloppy"

**Classification**: Hot^2 Bean

[00:28] 3423 and 693[0] calling the output a "blood bean", and 693[0] even providing backup.

[00:29] Further testing on the bean confirms the bean juice to be a gas.

**Outcome**: Success

**Conclusion:** This experiment was surprising for most, as it was expected that it would be a failure. This was because 1531, who is a prime, was one of the subjects. This means that the experiment had an incredibly high instability. However, 994’s combo-B E A Nmaker and the combo B E A N were a success.

## The Day of the Bean

On Sunday 19th January, the B E A N got popular in the Discord when #801 added the B E A N as a custom award on the subreddit. One of the Reddit Admins got involved, and handed out the awards. The Discord spiralled out of control once B E A N emotes were added.

## R I C E

R I C E is a theory proved false by the Scientists. Some say they have found that it is real, but it is all a fabricated lie for attention.
