NEW.004

NEW.004 is an entity classified as a NEW by N.E.W. Organisation in 2019C. It is an inert entity, meaning it is not able to do any harm to any living being.

Discovery
NEW.004 was discovered in a temple on Layer 5 by Communicator and Bean-Based Life Form. Upon its appearance, it was discovered to be extremely frail and weak, not able to deal any damage at all to explorers, and it seemed that even the slightest touch would cause it to collapse.

It’s current position is unknown, although it is believed to have been absorbed into the arcana of Bean-Based Life Form. No effect has been seen after its disappearance.

Only Known Discovery (01/07/19 - 10:28pm)

 * Upon appearance, from Bean’s vision it turned into a ~4m wide blob of Barbecue Sauce.
 * From Communicator’s perspective, it turned into a female equivalent of his species.

Possible Destruction (01/07/19 - 10:38pm)
After Bean attempted to absorb the worm into his system, believing that it was indeed a ball of Barbecue Sauce, his appearance changed drastically due to the fact that he now had 2 personalities inside his body. However, he was able to eject the worm and any infected parts of his body out, leaving himself considerably shorter, and the worm with more material. While trying to regenerate, however, the worm and its surrounding material were turned directly into arcana to fuel Bean’s growth. This is the last known appearance of the worm.

Appearance
NEW.004 takes the appearance of the viewer’s deepest desire. When nobody is looking at it directly, it takes the shape of a roughly 4m long, light brown worm, with no facial features except a huge mouth. It is seemingly able to speak in any language, as it was able to talk directly with Communicator and Bean after its discovery. It’s intentions are unknown, although it appeared to be guarding a big door inside the temple.

Possible Dangers
Due to the fact that is can deal no damage, there is no danger present. However, once you see the worm, it will try its hardest to not leave your line of sight. The worm can only be ‘defeated’ through sheer willpower, and the belief that what you are seeing does not truly exist.
