90s Televsion
Euclid
Cognito Hazard
Description:
The item was found during a routine sweep of a town located in the state of [REDACTED] in [REDACTED]. It was found in the home of [REDACTED] with the occupants having perished from
lack of self care due to mental impairment.
The subject is a standard vaccuum tube television set from the start of the 1990s. It is black in color and measures
80.01cm wide, 58.16cm deep and 70.86cm high and weighs 75kg with a diagonal class of 82cm. There are no abnormal physical features about the item
except it will only air content from the 1990s to the year 2000.
Containment:
It is to be stored in a 10x10 cell with the furnishings consistent with the 1990s to the year 2000.
It must be plugged into a standard house outlet, have a cable box or satellite dish and plugged in with RCA cables.
There are to be no windows except on the cell door to maintain basic visual contact.
The cell door is to remain locked. Prolonged exposure of more than 10 seconds will result in personnel attempting to open the cell door by any means necessary.
Two cameras will be employed, one outside the cell door and one inside to monitor who peers into the cell and provide discouragement from staring. Monitoring personnel
are to be rotated out every two months due to the lure of mindless television.
Threat:
Exposure of more than 10 seconds will cause personnel to stare at the screen and watch whatever is airing with no cares. Exposed personnel cannot pull themselves away
and require the assistance of another who is blindfolded to enter the cell. Exposure to the item will cause personnel to obsess over the programming and will continually seek
to be around it. Exposed personnel will then experience a decrease in mental effieciency with repeated and prolonged exposure until they can no longer care for themselves
properly. This takes place over the course of 2 weeks to a month. There is a way to combat this mental decline. Foundation medical staff must engage the exposed personnel
with mentally stimulating and enriching activities. This, however is a slow process that can take several months to return to where they were before exposure.
Testing:
5 (five) D-class personnel were used to determine the threat posed by the item with electrodes placed on the scalp to track brain activity. Test results are as follows:
1 (one) D-class personnel was exposed and left with the item for one day and experienced no decrease in mental capacity, required no remediation.
1 (one) D-class personnel was exposed and left with the item for 5 days and experienced a slight decrease in mental capacity as showed by slowed brain activity.
Required minor remediation that took 2 weeks.
1 (one) D-class personnel was exposed and left with the item for 2 weeks and experienced a significant shift in mental capacity as showed by slowed brainwaves.
Personnel also experienced a shift in personality from docile to hostile when pulled from the items influence. Required remediation that went on for 1.5 months.
1 D-class personnel was exposed and left with the item for 1 (one) month and experienced near total loss of brain activity except for basic bodily functions.
Required extensive remediation lasting 3 months.
1 (one) D-class personnel was exposed and left with the item for 1.5 months before the personnel expired. Cause of death was brain death.
