User:Mapel/The Mindscape
The Mindscape, codename J-123, is an alternate reality beyond ours that has numerous strange and anomalous properties. The dimension consists of a black, mostly flat plane, with a white sky with giant floating white gears in the distance. People sent into this dimension with cameras and radio equipment have reported that inside the dimension, all colours are inverted, detached footsteps were heard, and a copy of J-123-1 was perpetually floating in the distance. All video and audio equipment confirm as such, except the colour inversion. It seems the inversion does not affect video feeds and equipment. The dimension seems to stretch on infinitely.
Associated Anomalies
There are a fair amount of strange entities associated with The Mindscape.
J-123-1
J-123-1 is a white orb measuring 4 studs in diameter. The orb constantly hovers above the ground at a height of 5 studs, has strange appendages attached to the lower side of it, and is constantly emitting strange indescribable muffled noise. The orb is also smooth to the touch, and can be pushed around pretty easily as seen fit by Urbanshade personnel. It is currently unknown how J-123-1 managed to appear in our dimension, or what its primary function is besides being a point of interest, or "beacon" to J-123-4.

J-123-1 in containment. Also observed is J-123-2
J-123-2
J-123-2 is a set of gears. J-123-2 is quite similar to the gears that an be observed in J-123, however they are a lot smaller, appearing to have a diameter slightly slightly bigger then J-123-1's. The gears constantly follow J-123-1 around, where it goes, they go. The only real similarity between the gears is the size, as the gears have different interior designs and teeth count from one another. The gears are constantly spinning in place around J-123-2. J-123-2 does not seem to have a purpose.
J-123-3
J-123-3 is either nonexistent or currently heavily classified.
J-123-4
J-123-4, dubbed: "The Man from the Mindscape", is definitely the most strange entity attached to J-123. J-123-4, as the name suggests, is an entity shaped like an average tall humanoid, with white glowing skin, and piercing, melting black eyes. It is most likely a dweller of J-123, and there is a possibility multiple exist, but it is assumed there is only one. J-123-4's strangest ability is its ability to manifest and de-manifest in a ██ by ██ studs radius of J-123-1. If J-123-1 moves, J-123-4's "manifesting circle" moves with it, with the center of this circle always being on J-123-1. Upon entering a person's vision, J-123-4 instantly de-manifests from our reality. If the person observing J-123-4 is not currently being watched by another person, there is a small chance the observer will be taken to J-123 upon J-123-4's de-manifestation. It is unknown if J-123-4 does this on purpose or if this is just a side effect of its disappearance. Fortunately, CCTV cameras seem to exhibit the same effect as another person would, so if an observer is in line of sight of a CCTV camera when encountering J-123-4, it will no take them. As shown by testing, the statistical chance of being taken by J-123-4 when not under exterior observation is decently low and around 0.23%. So far, only 2 cases have been recorded of someone observing J-123-4 and being unlucky enough to roll the 0.23% chance. J-123 can only currently be accessed by being taken by J-123-4. Once someone or something is inside J-123, there is no currently discovered way out. The fate of employees unlucky enough to appear in J-123 is unknown.
