CLEARANCE PROTOCOLS / TRAINING MANUAL — TM-01 ADDENDUM
──────────────────────────────────────────────
CLASSIFICATION: LEVEL 4 – CONTROLLED ACCESS
FILE REF: TM-01-CLR-PRTCL
AUDIENCE: Onboarding Personnel — Chronotemporal Studies / Field Operations
──────────────────────────────────────────────

1. Clearance Structure (Abbreviated Reference)

  • Level 0 — Civilian / Unaffiliated (No Access)

  • Level 1 — Restricted: Facilities Staff (Custodial / Transport)

  • Level 2 — Confidential: Junior Analyst / Field Agent I (escort duty only)

  • Level 3 — Controlled: Senior Agent / Specialist (site perimeter access)

  • Level 4 — Classified: Case Officers / Division Chiefs (full dossier access; field command)

  • Level 5 — Restricted: Regional Commander / Division Director (cross-division coordination)

  • Level 6 — Eyes Only: Central Director / Oversight Command

  • Level 7 — Directorate: Strategic Policy, anomaly disposition authority

NOTE: Unauthorized cross-level access = immediate disciplinary action under Directorate Statute 7.4 (“Containment Breach via Negligence”).

2. Onboarding Guidelines — Personnel Assigned to TM-01

Preparation:

  • All staff must undergo memetic inoculation and baseline psychological screening prior to exposure to Adrian Clarke’s logs.

  • No playback of raw cassette material is authorized. Only filtered spectrographic transcripts may be used for training purposes.

  • Personnel must review Case File TM-01 — Person of Interest Dossier prior to site rotation.

Do Not (Critical Fieldwork Restrictions):

  1. Do not attempt to power, reassemble, or simulate TM-01.

  2. Do not attempt vocal repetition of subject’s “Weena” invocations or melody fragments.

  3. Do not speculate aloud in proximity to containment vault about reconstruction possibilities (cognitive contagion hazard).

  4. Do not engage subject Adrian Clarke, if recovered, without Directorate-approved briefing kit.

  5. Do not presume absence of accompanying entities if subject returns.

3. Anticipated Threat Scenarios — Field Guidance

Scenario A: Subject Clarke Returns (Unaccompanied)

  • Approach with non-lethal containment protocols.

  • Immediate cognitive screening required.

  • Debrief conducted under Level-5 oversight only.

Scenario B: Subject Clarke Returns (Accompanied by Temporal Entities)
Logs reference the following:

  • Morlock Variant (designation: MRLK-01)
    Profile: Subterranean, light-averse, opportunistic predator.
    Weaknesses: Severe photophobia — high-lumen flares and ultraviolet lamps recommended.
    Containment: Herd instinct exploitable; use sound decoys to funnel into holding corridors.

  • Vampiric Entity (designation: DRAC-23)
    Profile: Referenced only in passing; aligns with prior case DRAC-23 (Carfax Hollow incident).
    Weaknesses: Standard anti-vampiric measures authorized — sunlight exposure, threshold barriers, iron and silver implements.
    Containment: Cross-reference DRAC-23 protocols. Treat as Class-4 predatory anomaly.

  • Wolfman / Lycanthropic Variant (designation: WLF-72)
    Profile: Mentioned peripherally; consistent with Appalachian 1972 incident files.
    Weaknesses: Silver munitions; high-volume auditory disruption.
    Containment: Avoid melee; use tranquilizer arrays combined with silver projectiles.

  • Mythic Cross-Reference (designation: ART-78)
    Profile: Personnel note cross-reference to ART-78 (“Arthur” case, Northern England).
    Directive: Directorate has issued standing order — no tampering with TM-01 in attempt to “retrieve” myth-linked anomalies.

4. Standing Directorate Directive

“No Tampering, No Replication.”
All personnel are reminded:

  • TM-01 (“the Machine”) is not to be repaired, reactivated, or reverse-engineered.

  • Replication attempts are prohibited under Directorate Order 11.2.

  • Any staff member discovered attempting unauthorized experimentation will be classified as hostile actor and processed accordingly.

5. Field Training — Quick Reference Cards (issued on induction)

  • Lighting Protocol: Always carry UV lamp and flare pack; mandatory for site perimeters.

  • Containment Kit: Silver-plated restraints, iron spikes, salt sachets, and fire-retardant netting.

  • Audio Hygiene: Use filtered comm units only; exposure to raw log recordings constitutes breach.

  • Engagement Rule: Capture > Neutralization > Elimination (only under Directorate directive).

6. Final Advisory

Subject Adrian Clarke is considered missing, presumed displaced. Should he reappear, expect instability, cognitive fragmentation, and possible accompaniment by non-native entities. Maintain professional detachment. Treat all temporal “companions” as hostile until classified otherwise.

CLASSIFICATION: LEVEL 4 — CARRY ON PERSON AT ALL TIMES
──────────────────────────────────────────────

PROTOCOL — GENERAL

  • DO NOT power, adjust, or replicate TM-01 components.

  • DO NOT repeat subject’s vocal invocations (“Weena”) or melodies.

  • DO NOT engage Adrian Clarke without Directorate briefing kit.

  • Treat all non-native entities as HOSTILE UNTIL CLASSIFIED OTHERWISE.

ENTITY WEAKNESS GUIDE

MRLK-01 (Morlock Variant)

  • Weakness: Severe light sensitivity.

  • Countermeasures: UV lamps, magnesium flares, floodlights.

  • Tactics: Drive into confined spaces; seal exits.

DRAC-23 (Vampiric Entity)

  • Weakness: Sunlight, silver, iron, threshold barriers.

  • Countermeasures: Portable UV emitters, silver projectiles.

  • Tactics: Maintain distance; deny access to enclosed shelters.

WLF-72 (Lycanthropic Variant)

  • Weakness: Silver munitions, high-volume acoustic disruption.

  • Countermeasures: Silver-tipped tranquilizer darts, sonic grenades.

  • Tactics: Avoid melee; coordinate team fire.

[ART-78 Cross-Reference]

  • Directorate Advisory: NO TM-01 interaction authorized. Do not attempt retrieval or summoning.

FIELD KIT — MANDATORY

  • Lighting Pack: UV lamp (handheld + backup), flare bundle.

  • Containment: Silver restraints, iron spikes, fire-retardant netting, salt sachets.

  • Comms: Filtered comm units only (pre-screened channels).

  • PPE: Full eye protection (flare use), hearing dampeners (acoustic countermeasures).

ENGAGEMENT RULES

  1. Capture if entity can be contained without civilian exposure.

  2. Neutralize if containment fails, collateral risk imminent.

  3. Eliminate only under Directorate authorization.

FINAL NOTE

Adrian Clarke may return altered. Treat subject as contaminated asset until cleared.
“Preserve Normalcy. Protect Humanity. Control the Anomaly.”
