Entity #041 - Masked Watcher

Description

Entity-041 is a humanoid being that spontaneously materialises inside Roblox experiences. It has been described as a tall figure of unknown height, as it is always at a distance away from players and will disappear if a player walks too close. It wears a long yellow robe, with a mask covering its face. The mask is split between the middle, one half being a dark grey colour being the ‘comedy mask’ while the other being a yellow, almost golden colour being the ‘tragedy’ mask. It also has been reported to have tentacles extending from its robe.

It acts as a cognito-hazard, and an infohazard. Once a player stares at entity-041 for any amount of time, their Roblox will crash with strange images appearing on their screen. They will be then locked out of their account. Any videos or screenshots of the entity will be corrupted, being replaced by a yellow sign. The sign resembles one from a book with the title character being an entity that resembles Entity-041. Viewing entity-041 has been noted to not effect human beings.

Entity-041 has been shown to be sapient according to witnesses, interacting with other entities. It has also been known to use its tentacles to repeal other entities.

After the cognito-hazardous effect has occurred and players have been locked out of their accounts, their account will be converted into an instance of entity-041-A, or entity-041-B.

Entity-041-A / Entity-041-B

Entity surnames: Followers of the king / Church of Noli.
Anomaly type: Accounts
Risk to users: 2 (moderate)
Current status: Active

Entity-041-A, and entity-041-B instances are the accounts of users who viewed entity-041. They are all sapient, and sentient. They gain free will immediately after a user is locked out.

Entity-041-A and -B instances vary in appearance, often times keeping the overall appearance of their avatar when they were converted, with some modifying their appearance. Some instances have altered their avatar to mimic the appearance of their original users.

Although a trait of appearance goes with every instance, they all wear the Outrageous builder’s club hood’ and a mask, usually either the tragedy mask (-A instances) or the comedy mask (-B instances). Entity-041-A instances also usually wear lighter clothing and ‘robes’ while Entity-041-B instances wear dark clothing and robes.

Entity-041-A instances directly worship entity-041, although this has been described as a passive religion. They often times will behave exactly like a normal user, although they mention their religion or beliefs. They believe Entity-041 is a Shepard who will guide them to a perfect paradise when they die. All they need to do is live a normal life. -A instances also have been reported to respect the religions that users believe, and will attempt to be respectful.

Entity-041-B instances, however have been described as cultists. They have a heavy belief in their religion and will attempt to convert users to believe in it. They will usually remain inside games relating to Entity-041-B-2 and directly herald B-2 as the ‘avatar’ of entity-041 or its vessel. (Information on Entity-041-B-2 will be listed in addendum 1). It has been noted some instances of entity-041-B are more friendly and respectful, understanding boundaries, although this is rare.

ADDENDUM 2 - Interview

This interview was conducted between Radjohn1010, and an instance of entity-041 (Designated A-926). She agreed to do the interview in a private server in a theatre game that she and other -A instances regularly interact in.

<BEGIN LOG>

Radjohn-“Hello! Thanks for agreeing to do this interview, helps a ton, because we don’t know much about you guys and your deity.

A-926:”No problem! To be honest I always wanted to do an interview, just make belief ones I do in my shows get bland.. so a real one really spices it up.”

Radjohn-“Alright. So, do you have any memories that come BEFORE you gained sapience?”

A-926-“Only really faint memories of a couple of games, like some pirate game and one where there was some.. ghost, I think? That’s all really.”

Radjohn-“No memories of a human life? False memories even?”

A-926-“I know some people like myself who do have false memories, and even believe themselves to be human, but it seems random. Some of us do, some of us don’t have them.”

Radjohn-“Thanks for answering that, as I was really thinking about that.”

Radjohn-“Alright next question uh.. what did you see when you gained sapience?”

A-926-“Hm.. my memory’s foggy about that but I can sorta remember..”

Radjohn-“Go on!”

A-926-“I remember just.. waking up. I was a bit shocked looking at my hands, and the fact I was in the void. Then I saw a figure, it was The King! He just stood there, when I went closer, he spoke to me, told me that I was free and could do whatever I want.. as long as I respected him and my fellow believers.”

A-926-“Then he handed me a book. It was one with a yellow sign on the cover. It was just about the religion and stuff, some notable things like ‘the one in the deep’ or some crap like that. “

Radjohn-“Did you just find yourself in a normal game after that?”

A-926-“Pretty much. It was some colourful Obby. I also found my mask and hood right beside me. And that’s about it really. I can’t really remember the rest.”

Radjohn-“Thanks for telling me, but it’s alot to take in.”

A-926-“Understandable!”

Radjohn-“So yeah, next question! Do you know that many other accounts like you? How did you find them?”

A-926-“We’re sorta.. a community. The book The King left me showed the name of all the other believers. So we can join each other and interact.”

A-926-“Also uh, my book acts like the menu. I can use to look through games, buy stuff, build things.. stuff like that.”

Radjohn-“Oh! That’s pretty cool, I was going to ask something along those lines.”

A-926-“I was guessing that!”

Radjohn-“Alright. So this is going to be a personal question, but is your thoughts on Telamon’, Noli, or his followers?”

A-926 remains silent for a few moments.

A-926-“(using private messages) Alright, no one can hear us now, so I won’t get into trouble.”

Radjohn-“Alright”

A-926-“Telamon first of all.. he’s nice. He’s basically my grandpa, and the other worshippers of this religion would say the same. He sometimes finds really fun old games a person he calls ‘John’ used to play!”

Radjohn-“So.. he’s the closest to a paternal figure in your community?”

A-926-“Pretty much. The only other two I can think of is The King and Noli. And don’t get me started on Noli!”

Radjohn-“I would actually like it if you did tell me about Noli, and his cult.”

A-926-“Yeah you’ve already said that. Anyways, even though some of my brothers and sisters think he’s ’fine’, I see him as a MASSIVE ########!”

Radjohn-“So.. are you are still affected by the filter?

A-926-“Yeah.. but anyways, Noli’s whole cult is boardline psychopathic! His cultists are anti-social and refuse to talk about anything but their cult, he blackmails HUMANS to join! Even though human users should just join if they want, not through threats!”

A-926-“And the WORST part? I don’t even know if he’s even a converted account! I’m pretty sure he’s something like The King but eviler or something, maybe someone that “the dark one who sleeps in the deep” sent to cause trouble!”

Radjohn-“…Do you need a moment?”

A-926-“…Is this interview over?”

Radjohn-“If you want we can end it now-“

A-926-“Alright sorry uh, I have to perform now. It was nice talking to you! If you want, you can watch the play!”

Radjohn-“Sure I guess, don’t really have much else to do.”p>

ADDENDUM 3 - Recovered Message

Randomly, many high ranking investigators, and investigators involved with the entity-041 got a letter to their doors. Although one investigator’s ring doorbell did not show who sent it, another one claimed that he saw ‘a man in yellow robes, with a pallid mask’ posting the letter. Each one of the letters seemed aged; and has a strange mucous on them.

TO THOSE AT THE HIGHEST POSITIONS OF THE ‘ENTITY ARCHIVES’.

Greetings. I have been watching the work that your group has done. I’ve become invested in seeing what’ll come next. The miseries, the deaths, the mysteries.. although what has terrorised you and your community is lesser than what I’ve seen. This is all besides my reason for writing this.

My reason, is that I have gratitude towards your group. The ways you brave through darkness at such a young age, and how you risk your lives just to persevere information about these entities and to educate people of the danger.. it’s all so.. fascinating.

I originally arrived to the virtual realm to spread the word of my religion and gain followers, but instead I learnt by very being caused the avatars they controlled to become enlightened and alive. It made me feel something inside, but I only remained at a distance, letting them set up communities and have their own lives.

Now, one of my children are within your ranks. They are a token

Now, one of my children are within your ranks. They are a token of my respect, to aid you in your journey to understand this new age you live in. Though they may not tell you who they are, I will always know. I will always be watching, not as a threat, but as an admirer.

However, I do advise this warning. Do not seek me. Do not try to hunt me. Those who stare upon me will meet a fate worse than deletion. Take this as my only warning, from one watcher to another.

May the Yellow Sign guide you,

— The King in Yellow

Additional Notes

After receiving the letter, the Entity Archives temporarily shut down operations involving Entity-041 for approximately three weeks. During that time, multiple sightings of robed figures were reported in old Roblox hubs and experiences. No casualties occurred, though several investigators described feelings of paranoia and dizziness when entering the places where the sightings were made.
