GOC Codewords

This list represents an expanded sampling of the several hundred codewords used for Threat Classification. For a list of common codewords and their definitions, please consult your PHYSICS Division handbook.

Humanoid

Humanoid Threat Entities are broadly classified using a color-based classification system. (Note: non-humanoid entities may conditionally be given color codewords; a regenerating crocodile would be given the codeword 'Red' if that word applied, despite not being human.)
