## File Labels

File Labels are the string of letters and numbers used to sort through the mountain of documents contained within the FSCC foundation. To start the writing of a File Label determine the following;

What type of File is this? Your choices range from Containment Files, Personnel Dossiers, Assignment Orders, Anomaly Field Reports, Aftermath Reports, Information Documents, Test Reports, and other such files. Your File Type should be written as the first two letters of each type, i.e. an Information Document is labeled as "ID".

What is the specific type of File? This is often very loose and depends heavily on the File Type. The following list is the current specific types in use:

Information Document: 1 - General Information; 2 - Out-of-Universe Explanations; 3 - General Updates.

Containment File: 1(CN) - In-Use Containment File; 2(CN) - Outdated Containment File.

Personnel Dossier: (ID) - In-Use Dossier; (ID) - Outdated Dossier.

Assignment Order: N/A.

Anomaly Field Report: 1 - Anomaly is pending classification, should be replaced upon classification; (CN) - Containment Number of the reported anomaly.

Aftermath Report: 1(MSN) - Mobile Site Breach; 2(SN) - Site Breach; 3(MSN/SN) - Non-Breach Incident.

Test Report: (CN) - Containment Number of the tested anomaly.

Further will be added overtime.

When is this published compared to other similar Files? Order of Publication is in reference to when your file is added in comparison to other files, as to avoid exact similarities. For example, if your file is made after someone else's which shares the same Type & Specific Type call it 2 instead of 1.

Is this an add-on to another File? Should your file be extra information or heavily related to another published file you should add a secondary number as to differentiate it, i.e. if your file is a continuation to a previous report.

The following are accurate examples to follow:

Up to date Containment File for CN-401- CF.1401.1.0

8th Test Report for CN-401- TR.401.8.0

3rd continuation Field Anomaly Report of the 7th encounter for a pending anomaly- FAR.1.7.3

## Containment File

Containment Files are the heart of the FSCC foundation as it is the main tool of describing what terrors infest the world. Containment Files will be simple for creators to write as their creativity is let loose, however there are certain details required to be written down before their creations are verified.

Containment Number:

Containment numbers are the root identity assigned to all anomalies in the FSCC by order of discovery. Anomalies are thus often called by CN-(their unique number). No two unique anomalies may be given the same Containment Number, and secondary anomalies which are dependently connected to another anomaly shall be given the distinction of adding a number to the end of their primary anomaly's Containment Number, i.e. CN-52.1.

Photo:

Anomalies should be given a photo to add flavor and make them more distinct from one another, however these photos must be fair-use or personally made to avoid legal concerns. No two anomalies should share a photo without fair in-universe reason.

Nickname:

Anomalies should be given a unique nickname to add flavor and given an easier to distinguish name from their Containment Number. Nicknames are recommended to be related and incorporate a sense of humor or relatability to an anomaly. No two anomalies may share a nickname under any circumstances.

### Containment Data

Containment Data shall include information relating to an anomaly's state of being, difficulty to contain, danger it poses, and its confidentiality. These will thus be split into the categories of Entity Class, Containment Class, Threat Class, and Clearance Level.

Entity Class:

Entity Class will be the simple difference between an anomaly being an object or being. Should an anomaly replicate a sense of sentience or movement akin to a living organism it shall be classified as a "Contained Being" or "CB", should it exhibit no awareness or liveliness it shall be classified as a "Contained Object" or "CO". Should it be uncertain if an anomaly is living or not it may be classified as "Contained Being/Object" or "CB/O" until further research is performed to verify.

Containment Class:

Containment Class is the difficulty it takes the FSCC to contain and control an anomaly safely. Specific details may vary and not all descriptions must be followed to the letter. These will be divided into the following Classes;

Blue - Anomaly is either Neutralized, Decommissioned, or otherwise require no measures to contain them and thus pose no difficulty to contain.

[Data is Classified to Clearance Level 5 Personnel] White - Anomaly is currently well understood and controlled by the FSCC foundation as a tool. Containment is well understood and poses no intense challenge.

Green - Anomaly is understood and easy to contain by normal means, maintenance is minimal and risk of breaches is low.

Purple - Anomaly is still under heavy research and no definite containment procedures have been finalized, this class is utilized temporarily until a concrete class is determined.

Yellow - Anomaly is relatively understood however containment can be finicky, regular maintenance is required and risk of breaches is variable.

Orange - Anomaly is partially understood and containment is difficult, expensive or exotic maintenance is consistently needed and risk of breaches is consistent.

Red - Anomaly is not well understood and very difficult to maintain in containment, frequent expensive and/or anomalous maintenance is necessary and risk of breaches is endless.

[Data is Classified to Clearance Level 7 Personnel] Black - Anomaly is barely understood and is not reliably containable, limiting movement or temporary enclosures may be the only solution. Anomalous means are authorized in the hopes of containment.

█.█.█.█ - [Data is Classified to Clearance Level 10 Personnel]

Threat Class:

Threat Class is the danger an anomaly poses to individuals it is exposed to, including likelihood of death or other intense effects. Lethality and harm an anomaly poses shall receive the main concern during classification. Details are variable and not all descriptions must be followed to the letter, i.e. an anomaly which causes all humans to have a minor short headache is classified as both Safe & Humanity Danger due to its large spread but minor effects, however because harm presides before reach the anomaly would be classified as Safe due to its minor levels of harm. The following sentence however may be countered with the classification of Dangerous due to the mixture of large reach and minor damage, thus it is up to the author what they wish to base their classification off. These will be divided into the following Classes:

Neutralized - Anomaly has been destroyed and no longer portrays anomalous effects.

Decommissioned - Anomalies which either have their properties explained by natural sciences or has become so widespread as to become uncontainable and socially accepted as normal.

Safe - Anomalies which pose no intensely negative threat or any lethal damage to an individual from exposure.

Unknown - Anomalies which require more research to determine their Threat Class, danger ranges severely and precaution is heavily encouraged.

Dangerous - Anomalies which have their effects localized to a single individual or small group and otherwise doesn't invoke overly intense consequences from exposure.

Deadly - Anomalies which can cause lethal consequences either directly or in-directly, effects are often localized to the size of a town.

Super Dangerous - Anomalies which can cause lethal or otherwise very harmful effects whilst having its effects spread to about the size of a city or small nation.

Super Deadly - Anomalies which are near consistently lethal with minor exposure and effects about the size of a nation or large islands.

Extremely Deadly - Anomalies which are always lethal with any exposure and has its effects often reach the size of a continent.

[Data is Classified to Clearance Level 9 Personnel] Humanity Danger - Anomalies which hold the capabilities of causing extreme long-term damage to the world or beyond, including abilities such as redefining physics, decreasing the likelihood of future human survival, etc, however it does not create the possibility to cause total human extinction or total destruction of all life.

█.█.█.█ - [Data is Classified to Clearance Level 10 Personnel]

Clearance Level:

Clearance Level is the amount of confidentiality and secrecy behind certain information, either due to internal security, philosophical dangers, or otherwise unnecessary data which may be misused. Clearance Levels will be given out based on position and need to know basis, it is therefore recommended that personnel avoid looking into files they have clearance to if it is not necessary for their job. These will be divided into the following Levels:

One - "Facilitating", this Clearance Level is granted to bare minimum access Staff, this includes Janitors, Cooks, and other such positions which do not require information on any anomalies and are often isolated from any knowledge of such beings in existence.

Two - "Institutional", this Clearance Level is granted to maintenance personnel, this includes Medics, Engineers, and other such positions which require basic access to rooms deep within operated facilities however do not require any practical knowledge on the existence of anomalies.

Three - "Operational", this Clearance Level is granted primarily to security personnel, this includes solely individuals responsible for day to day security operations and minor containment efforts which are granted small glimpses into the existence and effects of anomalies.

Four - "Confidential", this Clearance Level is granted to upcoming scientific personnel, this includes Junior Scientists, and Junior Researchers which require access to information regarding anomalies and the privilege to begin surface level research into the strange occurrences our world faces. This is also granted to some Operation Divisions on a need to know basis.

Five - "Highly Confidential", this Clearance Level is granted to regular scientific personnel, this includes Scientists, and Researchers which are granted the ability to begin in-depth research on anomalies especially with their specific assignments. Some Operation Divisions may also be granted this Clearance Level.

Six - "Classified", this Clearance Level is granted to long-term entrusted scientific personnel, this includes Senior Scientists, and Senior Researchers which are permitted near total access to the horrors which plague our world, and are often given higher clearance on top of this when it comes to specific anomalies they are tasked with researching and/or testing. Some Operation Divisions may also be granted this Clearance Level should it be absolutely necessary. Some Committees within the FSCC foundation may be given this clearance to ensure daily operations are unimpeded.

Seven - "Unmarked Classified", this Clearance Level is granted to personnel with important positions of management, this includes Heads of Site Branches whom require access to most information which may effect the daily operations of personnel. Some Committees within the FSCC foundation may be granted this clearance should they be of considerable importance.

Eight - "Secret", this Clearance Level is granted to personnel of esteem authority, this includes Site Managers, Site Administration, and other positions of high management which require data on nearly all operations and anomalies contained within their select facility. Some Committees within the FSCC foundation may be permitted this clearance should they be deemed of utmost integrality to constant operations.

Nine - "Top Secret", this Clearance Level is granted to integral positions of authority within the FSCC, this includes Site Directors, [Data is Classified to Clearance Level 5 Personnel] and the Oversight Committee, the Oversight Committee is not revealed until personnel reach Clearance Level 5, which are permitted large scale knowledge and authority within the FSCC foundation to maintain order and productivity.

[Data is Classified to Clearance Level 7 Personnel] Ten - "Council", this Clearance Level is granted to the Authority Council which is given near total authority to rule the FSCC foundation, however its existence is not known by FSCC personnel until they reach the minimum Clearance Level of 7. This Clearance Level is also provided to the Emergency Operation Division which is the last line of defense when it comes to humanity.

[Data is Classified to Clearance Level 9 Personnel] Eleven - "Director", this Clearance Level is granted to the Chairman of the Authority Council, also known as the Director of the FSCC, who is permitted total access to all information within the database of the FSCC. The mere existence of the Director is not known to FSCC personnel until reaching Clearance Level 9, however the identity of the Director is not even known by the Authority Council and his actual existence is at times disputed.

Chart Guide for Clearance Level based on Threat & Containment Class:

The following chart is simply a guide, assigned Clearance Levels may be higher or lower than depicted due to the CN's specifics.

## Personnel Dossiers

Personnel Dossiers are the main means of describing and introducing personnel within the FSCC Foundation. Creators will be given the autonomy to write their own characters into this world of horror, with a handful of information being required to have such characters approved.

Status:

Personnel shall be given a status concurrent with their condition at the modern time of viewing. This status may change over time, however it is recommended for authors to provide a status which has some link to other material written. These statuses shall include the following;

Operational- Personnel is alive and currently working within the FSCC Foundation.

Deceased- Personnel has passed, either during or after employment.

Hiatus- Personnel is experiencing a condition which prevents effective performance and maintains employment whilst being temporarily excused.

Retired- Personnel has formally left the FSCC Foundation, remaining alive outside their duties.

Discharged- Personnel's employment has been terminated, remaining alive either in a reduced labor capacity or outside their duties.

Branch:

Personnel shall serve within one of several established branches which operate across the FSCC Foundation as a whole. These branches shall be provided below along with their ID related number;

[Data is Classified to Clearance Level 7 Personnel] Zero - "Authority Council", the Authority Council is given near total authority to rule the FSCC foundation, however its existence is not known by FSCC personnel until they reach the minimum Clearance Level of 7. The Authority Council acts as the highest committee within the FSCC Foundation [Data is Classified to Clearance Level 9 Personnel] being selected by, and reporting to, the Director himself to maintain reliable operation of the FSCC Foundation

[Data is Classified to Clearance Level 5 Personnel] One - "Oversight Committee", the Oversight Committee is given immense influence over the functions of the FSCC Foundation, acting as the overseers of each branch and the committee usually assumed to be the highest power in the FSCC Foundation by a majority of personnel. Personnel are not informed of the Oversight Committee's existence until they reach the minimum Clearance Level of 5. [Data is Classified to Clearance Level 7 Personnel] The Oversight Committee is selected by, and reports to, the Authority Council.

Two - "Administration", Administration is tasked with maintaining the FSCC Foundation's facilities and internal functions on a larger scale. Administration is permitted authority over all personnel operating within their assigned facility, and are responsible for the daily running of their facility and any CNs which may be held within their jurisdiction. [Data is Classified to Clearance Level 5 Personnel] Administration personnel are selected by, and report to, the Oversight Committee.

Three - "Research", the Research branch is tasked with the direct operational procedures of researching and classifying CNs, alongside the development of new hypothesizes and experimental ideas related to these anomalies. The Research branch works heavily with the Experimentation branch, however remains distinctively separate due to their overall authority when it comes to official documentation and assessments.

Four - "Experimentation", the Experimentation branch is tasked with the direct operations of performing, and reporting, experiments and other tests on CNs. The Experimentation branch works heavily with the Research branch, however remains distinctively separate due to their limitations in only fulfilling experiments and recording the results on behalf of the Research branch.

Five - "Containment", the Containment branch is tasked with the assistance in creating, and direct fulfillment of, containment procedures outlined by the Research branch. Containment chamber creation and containment personnel assignment are provided by the Containment branch to ensure the safety of all personnel in regards to contained CNs. The Containment branch remains distinctively separate from the Security branch due to its focus on CNs and its related procedures.

Six - "Security", the Security branch is tasked with the protection and supervision of FSCC Foundation personnel within facilities. The Security branch shall prioritize the patrol and protection of FSCC Foundation facilities from external and internal threats, including general policing of personnel. The Security branch remains distinctively separate from the Containment branch and Operation Divisions branch due to its focus on personnel.

Seven - "Field", the Field branch is tasked with the location and securement of unclassified and escaped classified anomalies. The Field branch shall work to investigate and capture any anomalies not in containment, cooperation with the Operation Divisions branch and International branch is heavily expected to fulfill this duty. Transportation of newly secured anomalies shall be assisted by, but not headed by, the Field branch with the Operation Divisions branch taking command instead. The Field branch is not assigned with CNs which are loose within FSCC Foundation facilities. The Field branch shall take precedent over all other branches while locating and securing uncontained anomalies.

Eight - "Ethics", the Ethics branch is tasked with the review of FSCC Foundation operations and creation of ethical guidelines to be enforced within the FSCC Foundation. The Ethics branch will ensure all facilities meet necessary standards to provide an acceptable environment for all personnel, and will operate other functions such as psychological health. All proposed experiments and other CN tests require approval by the Ethics branch before they may proceed. The Ethics branch holds no authority over other branches or personnel outside of their detailed duties.

Nine - "International", the International branch is tasked with the infiltration, surveillance, and reporting on outside organizations such as national governments, national agencies, international organizations, and Groups-in-Question. The International branch will remain withdrawn from all internal FSCC Foundation operations to maintain total focus on external groups.

Ten - "Operation Divisions", the Operation Divisions branch is tasked with the militaristic capabilities of the FSCC Foundation, providing specialized operation divisions to assist in CN containment procedures, facility protection, newly secured anomaly transportation, and other functions which require heavily armed personnel. The Operation Divisions branch shall retain a moderate level of autonomy for specialized operation divisions and will command total authority during times of crisis.

Eleven - "Civil Operations", the Civil Operations branch is tasked with the daily functions of FSCC Foundation facilities, such as medical operations, maintenance operations, sanitorial operations, and dietary operations. The Civil Operations branch shall retain lowered Clearance Levels and be expected to remain unaware of the FSCC Foundation's true nature to the longest extent possible. Civil Operations branch personnel will fall under the command of any and all personnel belonging to another branch as is reasonable. The Civil Operations branch shall be managed directly by the facility's respective Administration personnel.

Twelve - "Internal Security", the Internal Security branch is tasked with the investigation and surveillance of all FSCC Foundation personnel to root out corruption, treason, and espionage. The Internal Security branch will perform consistent investigations and infiltrations of each FSCC Foundation branch [Data is Classified to Clearance Level 5 Personnel] and will report to the Oversight Committee directly with their results. The Internal Security branch will not be obligated to cooperate with Administration should the information or operation in question be risked by such involvement.

Thirteen - "Anomalieverein", the Anomalieverein branch is a decommissioned committee from prior history during the FSCC Foundation's establishment.

Fourteen - "Projektschatten", the Projektschatten branch is a decommissioned committee from prior history during the FSCC Foundation's establishment.
