Classification: OCTANE CLASS Filed: 2025-04-14
Clearance Level Required: Level 4: BLACK VEIL OPERATIVE Object Class: OCTANE
OCTANE-class assets are highly mobile, self-directed agents possessing lethal autonomy, intelligence operations capability, and a potential for rogue deviation. OCTANE assets may not be contained in a traditional sense and are instead monitored or indirectly guided.
Threat Rating: ██████ Operational Status: ACTIVE — UNANCHORED Containment Priority: OBSERVE / DO NOT INTERVENE
"He doesn't leave corpses. He leaves audits."
Primary Roles: • Quiet Terminations • Intelligence Recovery & Blackmail Structuring • Cybernetic Espionage • "Ghost Routing" via █████████ • Social Dismantling Protocols (see Incident [[CV-07-Δ]])
Verified Capabilities: • Complete system infiltration █████████ • Zero detection across ████████████ • Confirmed extraction of ████ terabytes of classified info • Physical neutralization of up to ████████ in a single sweep • Utilizes analog methods to erase presence — no digital trace left post-engagement
Containment Recommendation: Due to his OCTANE classification, Corvus cannot be physically contained under current operational doctrines. Engagement is strictly prohibited unless under ██████████ • Passive surveillance through fractured proxies authorized • Do not engage directly • Avoid digital communication traces when discussing asset CV-07
Suggested Countermeasure Codename: “Mirror Blight” (status: ███████)
Cognitive Pattern: ███-resistant to conventional persuasion tactics. Believed to experience “Moral Drift” — not inherently malicious, but operates outside expected social constructs. Exhibits fascination with symmetry, efficiency, and irony in executions.
“He walked past three armed guards. They never looked up. The lights never flickered. The alarms never tripped. The only thing left was the silence — and the fact that our servers were three terabytes lighter.” — ██ ████████, Systems Commander, Site V/22
