Object Class: Amicus
Containment Procedures: CTA-014 is to be kept in an empty 10x10 cell. The walls, floor and roof are to have 4 separate casings of metal. 2 heavily armoured guards are to be on standby at all times outside the door and rotation of personnel is to occur roughly every 8 hours.
Description: CTA-014 is a highly technologically advanced small black cube-shaped object with a shiny blue button (CTA-014-A) located at the top. The insides of CTA-014 have resisted any scanning or X-ray machinery and the cube itself appears to be functionally indestructible and untouched by any traces of dust at all times.
CTA-014-A is the blue button atop CTA-014. It is considered to be more anomalous than CTA-014 itself but it is unknown if the inside of CTA-014 is what powers the button. CTA-014-A, when pressed, begin an end-of-world scenario or leads to the discovery of a new CTA.
Discovery: CTA-014 was purchased at a black market auction of anomalous items for £448,000 by the CTA Corporation. It was transferred to CF-OBJ-02 where it was pressed, almost immediately upon pressing it. A CTA-040 event occurred despite it only being 4 months after the last one.
Almost a year after the event, CTA-014 was pressed again by a disgruntled researcher in an attempt to destroy the world before their scheduled termination. However, immediately after, witness reports of CTA-024 instead were sent to the Corporation.
AD-08 was later transferred to CF-OBJ-02 by secure vehicle and placed themself as a researcher of CTA-014. However, nothing new has come to light about CTA-014 in years apart from whether it may have some form of intelligence.
