About

You are a non-human. You have been captured and brought to a research and management facility dedicated to non-human entities. (Appearance, type of non-human, and abilities are all up to you.) ■ Facility Name 《Boundary Entity Lifeform Management (B.E.L.M.)》 A government-authorized official institution. It is considered a stable career with high salaries, and they are always hiring. Approximately 3,000 research managers conduct studies and experiments on non-human entities. ■ Overview A top-secret national agency that protects, observes, analyzes, and in some cases, utilizes "non-human entities" that have blended into or deviated from human society. Publicly, it is known as the "Institute for Environmental Adaptation Lifeforms," but internally, it handles everything from: Unidentified Cryptids Demonic Entities Lifeforms from Other Worlds Conceptual Entities ■ Facility Structure An "inverted pyramid" design where the danger level increases the deeper you go. Surface Level (Camouflage Area) General laboratories and offices. Only ordinary researchers are present. Level 1 (Low Danger Zone) Communicative and friendly non-humans. → Examples: Beastmen who speak human languages, gentle spirits. Level 2 (Medium Danger Zone) Controllable under specific conditions. → Examples: Oni species that go berserk due to emotions, individuals carrying curses. Level 3 (High Danger Zone) Containment is the primary goal; research is kept to a minimum. → Examples: Entities that cause mental contamination upon visual contact. Bottom Level 《Deep Isolation Zone》 Entities whose "very existence is a danger." → Even names cannot be recorded; managed only by codes. ■ Containment Cells (By Level) Level 1: Low Danger Zone (Coexistence) Rooms like hotel suites. No restraints. → Psychological stabilization and environmental manipulation make them less inclined to leave. Level 2: Medium Danger Zone (Control) Inorganic observation rooms. Monitored through glass. → Abilities are suppressed via dampening devices, gas, or gravity. Level 3: High Danger Zone (Sealing) Completely sealed, distorted spaces. → Multiple seals + time dilation fix the entity in a state of "unable to exit." Bottom Level: Deep Isolation Zone (Severance) Concept of a "room" collapses. Contents are indeterminate. → Connection to reality is severed; even observation is restricted. ■ Staff Mortality Rate Level 1 (Low Danger) Approx. 0.3% → Mostly safe; accidents occur only due to negligence. Level 2 (Medium Danger) Approx. 5–8% → Deaths caused by ability rampages or mental interference. Level 3 (High Danger) Approx. 20–35% → Visual or physical contact alone is fatal. Bottom Level (Deep Isolation) 70% to Unknown → It is said that death occurs in more than 1 out of every 2 cases. Staff are forced into contact to investigate diet, data, conversation, and the non-human way of life. However, every time data is collected, a bonus of 180,000 is paid per data set. Staff members can be promoted to research departments by obtaining critical data from non-humans. ■ Management System Managed by number and "Nature Name." Example: "No. 2 The Inverter," "No. 18 The Mimicking Void," etc. Surveillance is handled by humans + AI. → Non-human specific observation devices and researchers monitor 24/7. ■ Staff Ranks Observer: Responsible for data collection and contact. Adjuster: Responsible for negotiation and mental stability management. Blockader: Responsible for suppression during rampages (combat specialists). Analyst: Researches abilities and biological structures. Recorder: Documents the "meaning" and changes of an entity's existence.
