BAA-0022 Area 'A' Crate 250x100x100
Cylon Robot
This crate contains a large humanoid robot, in steel armor. It has been
deactivated and appears to be heavily damaged. Its "face" consists of a
metal speaker grille and a single red eye-slit. Attached notes mention
that the robot identifies itself as a "Cylon," and is extremely dangerous.
Once activated, it automatically seeks out and destroys all humans it can
find. Instructions for how to reconnect the robot's internal power supply
are included, with warnings. {Battlestar Galactica}
BAB-0006 Area A Crate 100x50x50
The Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator
A small, highly specialized explosive device that remarkably resembles a
stick of the Earth invention dynamite. The resemblance is particularly
notable for the fact that illudium of any kind, let alone the highly
specialized Q-36 isotope, is nowhere to be found on Earth, and cultures that
have discovered space modulation technology tend not to have a great
familiarity with Terran culture.
BAB-0008 Area A Crate 60x60x60
"Red Mercury" miniature fusion bomb
The so-called "baseball bomb" is a metal sphere 15cm in diameter, massingg
10kg. The accompanying technical literature indicates that is operates by
subjecting a slurry of a mercury antimony oxide to high pressure with
plastic explosive lenses. The resulting explosion is the equivalent of
about a ton of TNT and also throws off a neutron dose lethal within 100m.
Much of the technical data is in Russian.
BAB-0034
Gamma Bomb
An early prototype of the neutron ray, the gamma bomb sought to destroy
only mammalian cells in its area of effect. However, the "gamma particles"
relased by the blast somehow interacted with the psyche of the target, and
many so exposed mutated into twisted variants on the darkest parts of the
mind. One such victim, creator Dr. Bruce Banner, escaped from the test
site and disappeared into the desert. {Incredible Hulk}
BAB-0065
Nazi Nukes
Prototype nuclear weapons, marked with swastikas. The bombs employ extremely
crude forms of plutonium that (if they worked at all) would have made an area
uninhabitable for years.
BAH-0011 Area 'A' Crate 35x30x15
Proton Pack
A heavy (approximately 55 pounds) backpack filled with electronic gear.
When activated, a small nuclear accelerator in the pack builds up an
ectoplasmic energy charge that can be used to affect beings composed of
ectoplastic matter. The charge is released through a rod attached to the
pack by a heavily-shielded cable. The rod includes settings for "attack"
and "containment," and a trigger. Squeezing the trigger fires an erratic
proton beam, requiring a good dose of strength to control. Notes warn that
(1) the backpack's shielding is spotty, and prolonged use may be hazardous,
(2) the energy charge can and will affect "ordinary" items and beings, and
(3) never, EVER CROSS THE STREAMS! {Ghostbusters}
BAH-0012 Area 'A' Crate
Paranormal Investigation Kit
Contained herein is the tools of the paranormal investigator, ranging from
Kirilian goggles to a Psychokinetic Energy meter, to traps designed to
captured ectoplasmic entities. Included in this crate is a scholarly
discours by Dr. E. Spengler, on the theory behind the traps, as well as how
to design more. One trap currently seems to be "loaded."
BAL-0009
Gamma-ray laser
A laser comprised of ultra-high frequency gamma rays, which upon colliding
with any object that has mass, causes the loss of atomic cohesion, leading to
nuclear fission.
BBB-0125
Two 16-inch Battleship Cannon shells
These naval shells were filled with Quick-Death organism bomblets, a
super-virus that killed everything and did not lose their potentcy for
about 5000 years. They were lost on a flight across the USA in the
fifties. The plane crashed in a Colorado lake and was recovered later.
{Vixen 03}
BCE-0012
Imperial Stormtrooper gear [OOPS]
Defintely a relic of the Undertaking, the body armor seems to be created
from a unidentified polymer matrix that helps distribute various forms of
energy through the suit. Unfortunately for the wearer, the armor is
effective for only a few shots / blows before the entire suit fails
catastrophically. {Star Wars}
BCE-0075
Dalek Carapace [OOPS]
Hinged open so the entire top section swings forward. A tank of green
goo, with a large green blob floating in it. Notes indicate that there was
once a live dalek in suspended animation in Area C," but it has since
died. (Dr. Who)
BCH-0010
A stun gun
Standard government issue stun guns, these weapons were to replace
traditional slugthrowers in urban environments by 1980, when it was decided
that it would too readily undermine the authority of the various peace
officers. The devices work on the principle of charging a small bag full
of metal ball bearings with electrical current. When the target is struck,
the charge is passed to the target's muscles, effectively paralyzing them.
BCP-0037
A supersonic intercontinental jet bomber developed by the Nazis
While technically an OOPS, the technology is no more advanced than most of
the other avionics avaliable to the Nazis at the time. More important
perhaps is the identity of the agent that allowed them to put it all
together so well. The vehicle is similar to the Flying wing design, except
that it has a wingspan in excess of the B-29 Flying Fortress.

Martian War Machines (3)
After the failed Martian invasion at Grovers Mills on October 30, 1938
as described by Orson Wells in his classic broadcasts, several of the
Martian war machines were recovered and placed in the warehouse. A
successful coverup campaign managed to convince most of the world that the
broadcasts had been a hoax, or a radio play.
The devices appear to be large metal tripods, 30 ft. tall, with
retractable, prehensile limbs. Two main weapons were the notorious "heat
ray," which consisted of a mirror and a hitherto unknown energy source, and
several cannisters of a highly toxic substance that acts as a contact
poison. Not even full biowarfare gear can protect the user from exposure.
The agent is administered in a great cloud, which kills in seconds.
However, the cloud is extremely dense, and highly unstable. Within hours,
the components disperse, leaving the area breathable.
{War of the Worlds, short story, movie, and TV series, and Invasion
from Mars, radio play}
BCW-0023
Nazi Armory
Many crates of bizarre super-tech weapons, all marked with swastikas.
BEI-0098
Wrist weapon
A wrist mounted weapon which fires magnetically guided spinning disks which
cut very finely ("..it's like a razor cut, only cleaner..."). It ended up
wedged in a speaker magnet and taken to a gov't lab for analysis. (Predator)
BIY-0001 Area 'A' Crate 80x80x40
Captain America's Shield
A circular shield, about 3' in diameter, with concentric red and white
rings and a star in the center on a blue field. The material is
non-ferrous metal, which seems to absorb vibrations without transforming
them into another form of energy (such as sound or heat) The shield has
aerodynamic properties. It can be thrown by a strong person for about a
hundred meters, and ricchochet with little loss of momentum. {Captain
America}
BJB-0005
Aerosol cans
Seven in all, three are labeled 'Nitro 9'and four 'Nitro 9A.' Contains
concentrated ultra high explosive in a sort of stable container, fused for
3 second delay. {Dr. Who}
BKH-0026
Baseball bat
This metal baseball bat seems to be composed of standard aluminum.
However, the material is unknown and untestable, as all attempts to take
a sample cause sympathetic vibrations in the instrument that shake it to
pieces. Despite it having the weight and balance of a normal bat, three
hard blows are sufficient to crack inch thick titanium. When swung, it
hums ominously. Bears the name "Ace" on a small scrap of tape.
BMH-0009
Stormbringer
A black sword, with red runes on it, unearthed in western Canada with a
petrified human skeleton. The sword is dated as being older than the earth
where it was found. Researchers tested the sword to find out what it was
made of, but it defied their efforts. Everyone who touched the sword died.
BMH-0010
Master Sword
A longsword with a blue hilt and a golden gem affixed directly over where
the blade meets said hilt. There is a small triangular rune on the blade.
The sword is firmly planted in a shattered gem located in the forehead of a
statue of a large hulking man in dark robes grasping two swords, looking
upward and grinning with an evil smile. (Legend of Zelda)
BMH-0016
Excalibur
A broadsword from roughly 600 AD with a woman's hand still gripping
the hilt. Assumed to be the weapon which the mythical Arthur used in
battle. It is exceedingly sharp, and shows no sign of decay. {Arthurian
Legend}
BMH-0017
Dyrnwyth
The weapon appears to be cold forged iron, crudely fashioned. It is
secured in a decaying leather scabbard (which has not decayed any further
in the last 50 years). Written on the pommel in an early form of Welch is
the following inscription, "Drawn Dyrnwyth, only thou of noble birth / And
use it to strike down evil." All attempts to remove the scabbard results
in an explosion, leaving the subject with horrific radiation burns.
{Mabignogian, Prydain Chronicles}
BMH-0018
The Spear of Destiny
This is suposedly the spear (wielded by the Roman centurion Casca ) that
was shoved into the side of Jesus while he was on the cross. There are also
rumors that it may have once belonged to Odin.
The Spear of Destiny resufaced from time to time in European history.
According to legend, any leader who wielded it into battle simply could not
lose. One now understands Hitler's fixation with it. Also said to have
been wielded by St. George the Dragonslayer, and may or may not be the same
as Rhonoghymant, the spear owned by Arthur.
BMH-0019
12 English Longswords
BMH-0020
The Sword Victorious
Similar to BMH-016, this is the legendary Sword in the Stone. It contains
a note that it was recovered during the Undertaking, after being taken from
a peasant boy.
BMI-0001
Excalibur's scabbard
Apparently a match for BMH-016, the scabbard is seperately listed because
of its unusual properties. While the scabbard is worn, any wounds
inflicted on the wielder simply do not bleed. Infection does not set in,
and the wounds seem to heal at a vastly accellerated rate.
BOH-0001
Calico kit bash
The "calico kit bash" is a modification of a calico machine
pistol. The calico is a machine pistol with an M-16 barrel, cut down, and
a handgrip from the same gun. It holds some 60 rounds of .22 ammo in a
helix clip along the top of the pistol. The gun has five settings, each with
an exponentially higher damage. At five, it could probably take out a couple
of semis, or maybe a large house.{I Come In Peace}
BOL-0005
Deactivated Cybernaut
Large humanoid metal robots, semi-autonamous but not capable of any
thought, capable of passing for human only from a distance. Slow but
virtually unstoppable and indestructible. {The Avengers}
BPZ-0061
Tripod and several caps [OOPS]
Similar in design to BCP-0017, the tripods seem designed for an immense
race with prehensile tentacles. The tripods are 15m tall, with a variety
of metal tentacles that allow grasping. The caps seem to be neural
inhibitors, which are bolted directly onto the skull and inhibit certain
thoughts (such as rebellion). Certain agencies have expressed interest in
the application of the technology. (The White Mountain trilogy)
BQB-0030
Q Bomb
Resembling a metal football in size and physical appearance, the Q-bomb is
a weapon of horrific power. It is extremely sensitive to vibrations, and
any good shake can set off the timer. The closer it gets to detonation,
the faster it ticks. After a certain point, any jarring impact sets off
the explosion (roughly equivalent to 10 megatons). {The Mouse that Roared}
BQH-0002
Hand Phaser [OOPS]
Discovered in an alley in 1933, near the scorched remains of an
unidentified vagrant.
BQH-0003 Area 'A' Crate 20x10x10
Light Saber [OOPS]
This crate contains a small metal tube that can be held in one hand. One
end of the tube has a grilled port, while a small button is inbedded in the
side of the tube. If the button is pressed, an energy beam of
approximately 1 meter in length protrudes from the grille, held in place
by unknown forces (possibly electromagnetic). The light beam can penetrate
all known physical substances.
BZE-5068 Area 'A' Steamer Trunk 120x90x75
Box of Costumes
This old trunk contains a dozen WWII-era superhero costumes, complete with
padded muscles and strange gimmicks to simulate superpowers. (The costumes
are evidence that there really were costumed mystery men during the War, but
the government has covered up their existence after most of the heroes died
in action.)
CCC Communication Object allows communication over a variety of
media
CEL-001
ET's home phone number {E.T. The Extraterrestrial}
More than just a string of data, this device is actually a crude hyperspace
transmitter formed from parts such as an umbrella, tinfoil, a Speak-and-Spell,
and the blade of a radial saw.
CZH-0098
An English-Dolphin translator's dictionary
The first half of this journal instructs the reader as to the proper way
to form various parts of the tongue, lips, and nose, to produce some of the
elementary sounds. Once a dolphin is aware that you want to communicate,
it will change its tones to a range more easily understood by humans.
CEH-0024
The hand set from Quantum Leap [OOPS]
This object, retrieved from a small coal town in West Virginia, seems to
be a data tranceiver, capable of receiving and sending huge amounts of
data. However, the device seems to be sodered together in a hurry, since
it is often necessary to strike its surface to make it work properly.
CEB-0003
The Necrophone
Edison's final invention, it is a device enabling one to speak with the
dead. It works on a similar principle to the telephone, except that the
speaker apparatus seems to emit no sound, and the headset worn oover the
operator's ears can sometimes pick up tinny whispers.

CZH-0098 Area 'A' Crate 100x50x50
English-Dolphin Translation Gear
This crate holds two things -- a waterproof electronic device,
approximately 20x25x10, and an instruction booklet/translation dictionary.
The device accepts audio input from two jacks, provides audio output to one
speaker, and video output to a VGA computer monitor. One microphone and
speaker are labelled "dolphin," and the other microphone and video output
are labelled "human." / Setting up the gear involves plugging the machine
into a standard wall socket, connecting the necessary
microphones/speaker/monitor, then immersing the "dolphin" microphone and
speaker into a tank. When dolphin squeals arebroadcast into the "dolphin"
microphone, the monitor displays a series ofcolored binary digits (red-0
green-1 red-1 blue-0, for instance). The instructions convert the CBDs into
equivalent English phrases and ideas. When English speech is spoken into
the "human" microphone, the speaker plays a series of squeals and clicks,
roughly corresponding to equivalent ideas in the dolphin language
("dolphine"). The instructions offer suggestions for speaking, and
dolphine phrases for common items.

Secret Kennedy Kidnapping Film
A film reel of the JFK 'assasination' taken from close by, and in front
of, the main procession. The film clearly shows Kennedy being shot from the
front, but with a strange dart. It also reveals that bodies were switched
within a second of JFK collapsing. The film case is marked with a CIA file
number, and the words TOP SECRET.
DZI-0017
Kennedy Assassination film
A film can marked "Goodbye Mr. Chips." It contains an 8mm film of John F.
Kennedy's assassination. The film begins 1 minute before the shooting and ends
1 minute afterwards. A shot of the book depository clearly shows Lee Harvey
Oswald cleaning his rifle. A lingering shot of the grassy knoll shows what
seems to be Lee Harvey Oswald attaching a silencer to a pistol. At the end of
the reel, the cameraman shuffles around in front of the camera, which is
mounted on a tripod. It is Lee Harvey Oswald, giving the camera an enthusiastic
"thumbs up."

Documents on the Iran/Contra connection
Fairly simple: Lt. Col. Oliver North sent money earmarked to help the
Contras in their war against the Sandinistas in Nicaragua to Iran in the
form of weapons, etc., in exchange for influence in helping obtain the
release of several prisoners. This occurred in the middle of Reagan's
worst sabre-rattling tirades, with promises that we would not cave in to
terrorism.
DZF-0021
Documents on the October Surprise conspiracy
During the 1980 Presidential campaign, the GOP sensed that they could
grab the presidency, but they needed to make Carter look ineffectual. Iran
was close to caving into sanctions, imposed because they still held
Americans hostage. The GOP promised to look favorably on Iran and reward
certain well placed Iranaian officials if they would forestall the release
of the hostages (due to be released during October of 1980), until after
the election. True to their word, the Iranians relased the hostages during
Reagan's inaugural speech, thus making it historic.

The Last Order of Lenin
The Last Order of Lenin was a deathbed statement by Lenin, which was
supposedly an order that Stalin was to be purged, or prevented by the Party
from ever reaching power. At least this was the story cultivated by
Stalin's enemies and picked up outside the USSR to vilify him more as a
renegade. Stalin's people suppressed the order, if it ever existed, and
officially the Last Order was a typically Leninesque harangue for the
Party, etc., and unofficially (but the approved unofficial version) a
secret plan of his to further the spread of Communism throughout the world.
The last order, however, was far more sinister than most suppose.
According to most sources, the last command was to dismantle the whole
thing. The dictatorship of the proletariat would be far from temporary,
and thus the experiment was a failure. All who disagreed were to be
executed.

The original plans are from the 12th century and written in French, by an

other unnamed people, taking into account then-new developments, including
a reference to stashing key items into a secret 'storage site.' The
essence of the plans consist of obtaining control of the major commercial
suppliers of food and energy, then manipulating availability through price
control and collusion with other corporations and groups.

These files prove that Elvis Presley really was an undercover drug agent,
and after his disappearance the U.S. government began recruiting
Elvis-lookalikes to replace him. Ninety percent of the Elvis impersonators
in Los Vegas are actually there to spy on the Mob, and file reports with
Elvis Command, a secret bunker underneath Graceland. The box also contains
some Elvis Agent gear, including a wig, a bulletproof white jumpsuit, and
a grenade disguised as a fried chicken leg.

EIY-0098
Fragments of metal from Amelia Earhart's plane and a lab report.
The lab report indicates that the metal fragments were from the wing
tips of Amelia Earhart's plane, and were found on a desert island. Analysis
shows the pieces were subjected to great amounts of stress along a single
axis. Residual traces of unusual energy patterns were also found. The
report concludes that Amelia's plane was either caught in the tractor beam
of a flying saucer, or fell through a dimensional rift.

Collected JFK evidence from the National Archives.
All testimonies, photographs and lab reports which lent doubt to the
official story of the JFK assasination were collected and stored here.
Contents include the complete Zapruder film, the Director's cut of Oliver
Stone's JFK, as well as a tape-recorded interview with a witness who saw
quite distinctly a plume of smoke coming from the grassy knoll.
EIY-0008
D. B. Cooper paraphenalia
Includes an empty money bag, a parachute, and a high-quality latex mask
of D. B. Cooper's features. D. B. Cooper was the first person to try
highjacking a plane for money. (His actual name is unknown; the name he
gave when buying the plane ticket was "D. B. Cooper".) It was back around
1970; he got into the cockpit with a gun and demanded $250,000 and a
parachute. He got the money and chute at Seattle, and somewhere between
Seattle and Portland, Oregon he went out the emergency escape in the tail
of the plane. He has not been seen since. Some of his money was found back
in the mid-80's in a bag by a lake in the forests of southern Washington,
and so many folks think it likely that he did not survive his jump (the 727
was flying rather high and fast for the kind of jumping he would have had
to try), but D. B. himself, and over half the money, is still missing. D.B.
Cooper's actions fuelled a decade of hysteria about skyjacking which was
useful in the plans of various government agencies. Putting a face on
Cooper would have demystified the whole proceedure.

Some Russian nationalists still seek any survivors of the Communist purges.
Such an heir, couples with these Crown jewels, could very well unite a

Debris from Flight 19
Flight 19 was a squadron of five Avenger torpedo-bombers which set out for
a routine training mission from Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Despite clear skies
and an experienced flight leader, the planes disappeared completely. Radio
operators on the ground report receiving intermittant signals from the lead
plane, informing them that their compasses were spinning, and that they
would attempt to head toward the sun (which, at that time, would have been
west). Further reports show that the leader did not recognize what should
have been familiar terrain. The last known recording was recieved right
before they passed over the unfamiliar land.

The Marylin Monroe Diaries
The American actress Marylin Monroe was found dead in her apartment, two
weeks after claiming to one friend that she had sufficient evidence to blow
the cover off of the UFO secret. Ms. Monroe's proximity to powerful
figures not only in Hollywood, but also givernment and organized crime,
indicates that she was in a position to learn a great deal of damning
information.

The contents and the body of the pharaoh in the Great Pyramid.
The pyramid at Cheops is the last of the seven wonders still intact. It
stands as a marvel of human engineering and determination. As the final
resting place of the pharaoh, it failed miserably. The tomb was thought
looted centuries before, but a secret chamber housing the true burial area
was accidentally discovered in 1925. The warehouse became involved when
the egyptologist used unscrupulous means to transfer the goods into the
country. This trail led the realia to the front door of the Warehouse,
which was then compelled to bury the discovery entirely, lest its secrecy
become violated.

Judge Crater
In 1931, Justice Crater, a New York Appellate judge on the way up, stepped
into a cab and stepped off the face of the earth. Months of speculation
concerning his demise ranged from being knocked off by various underworld
figures to an anonymous death in a bordello, but the weight of evidence
indicates instead that he walked too close with Tammany Hall, a notorious
political machine that ran NYC in the first quarter of the century. His
was the first "vanishing" of the modern era, and it tested the
effectiveness of contemporary law enforcement strategies. In truth,
Justice Crater came into possession of certain documents desired by the GC
concerning Tammany's connection to occult forces. He thought that he could
blackmail the collectors. He thought wrong.
E
Lee Harvey Oswald's Mannlicher-Carcano rifle.
Tests run on this rifle, found in the book depository, indicate that the

DNA Reserve off the coast of Costa Rica
This crate contains boxes of data, pictures, and bioengineering equipment
liberated from a small island two days after it was firebombed by US
military. The data contains enough information to reconstruct the
experiment in splicing preserved dinosaur DNA into special fertilized
amphibian eggs, creating a hybrid that will hatch as a dinosaur (but with
a few surprises left from the amphibian.) The pictures consist of an
exhaustive array of photographs showing a variety of freshly killed
dinosaurs, apparently from several geological periods.
Appended to this crate is a dossier discussing the spread of a
previously unknown reptilian creature, engaged in livestock mutilation and
widespread deforestation. The reports originate from a mainland dock where
the island's supply vessel sits when not in use, and continue in a straight
line into the mainland. Xenobiologists involved with the case indicate
that the life forms are breeding at an alarming rate, and will soon
encounter human settlements.
E
"Son of Sam" Exonerated
David Berkowitz, the notorious Son of Sam, who killed six people in the
area of New York City, claimed that his neighbor's dog was the medium
through which the demons spoke, telling him to kill various people. A mere
two years after he was convicted of these crimes, he held a press
conference claiming that he had made it all up. Indeed, it was later
discovered that the dog was a familiar, and his master was an Adept of the
Black Arts, who needed the souls of Berkowitz's victims in his rituals.
E
SPECTRE Documents
In the years following the second world war, several war profiteers and
ex-Nazi officers realized that a great deal of money could be made while the
world reeled in fear and chaos. Combining their forces, they created a
terrorist organization bent on starting small wars, arming both sides, and
watching them totally annihilate one another. They continued until they
realized that money was only as valuable as the country that backed it, and
that their ultimate plans involved leaving no single company intact
enough. Instead of financial gain, the forces of SPECTRE twisted their
aims to world domination, under the facade of financial extortion.

The British copy of the North American Treaty
In 1915, when Britain was growing desperate for American existence in WW
I, a secret treaty was drawn up, effectively selling Canada to the US in
exchange for assistance in defeating the Triple Alliance. All three
extant copies were mysteriously lost in transit, and before a new set could
be drawn up, the Lusitania was sunk, and the Zimmerman telegraph was
discovered, at last bringing America into the war. One copy found its way
into the Warehouse. Since all the conditions of the treaty were met by the
Americans, and signed by both sides, all it would take would be the
approval of the Senate, and the treaty would be ratified.
E
The missing pages from the logbook of the Marie Celeste.
The Marie Celeste, a fishing boat, was found adrift in the Atlantic in the
1800s. Those who found the boat discovered that it had been abandoned in
a hurry - several plates of food lay half eaten. The excellent condition
of the ship indicate that it wasn't in distress. The only evidence
discovered was the captain's logbook, with the last ten pages ripped out.
On the pages, the captain relates a slow descent into insanity, culminating
in the crew's desire to join their brothers the dolphins. Blood found on
these pages indicate that the choice wasn't entirely voluntary.

The identity of Zodiac
Zodiac was an ingenious serial killer who preyed on young victims in the
San Francisco area in the late 60s - early 70s. He would send messages to
the police in codes that stumped the best efforts of CIA and NSA
cryptologists, until the code was cracked by a schoolteacher in Arizona.
He filled his letters with insane ramblings about the ritualness of his
crimes, and he planned each according to the stars themselves. Police list
his official victims at six, but they may have been as high as fifty.
Zodiac was never caught. According to the evidence, Zodiac was a killing
machine employed by various shadow agencies, who covered their hired hits
by allowing their agent to wander about, and do what he did best.

The notes of the doctors who examined ET
According to the reports the creature had an advanced physiology with
several seemingly redundant organs, as well as DNA with two differences in
base structure. This explained why he was slowly dying -- his cells were
dying naturally, but he couldn't find the material he needed to replace
them. In addition, the notes discuss a parasitic relationship between the
creature an a young boy named Elliot. {E.T.: The Extraterrestrial}
E
The stiff little finger from the hand of an Invader. {The Invaders}
In the 1950s, an alien race calling itself the Invaders attempted to live
up to their name, conquering the earth by insinuating themselves into our

hospitable to them. The only obvious difference between the Invaders and
human beings was that their "pinkies" were not jointed. One such specimen
resides here, as a means of identification.

A sample of Xenovirus Takis-A
In 1946, a spacecraft crash-landed in upstate New York. An alert and
paranoid farmer killed the extraterrestrials, and captured the cylinder
containing this virus, which was eventually turned over to the warehouse.
The virus, which appears to be a red dust, comes as spores which reproduce
only within homo sapiens sapiens, and all genetically compatible alien
races. It possessed an aerosol vector, which allows it to be initially
very contagious, but only in spore form. The virus is a highly complex
recombinant DNA tool kit, taking the genome, and snipping and splicing in
inherently random conformations.
This randomness, however, seems anything but. Most who are affected (90%),
carry the virus without any incident. Of the 10% who are infected, 90%
pull the "Black Queen," which is catastrophic mutagenic transformation.
The victim's DNA completely dismantles under the strain, and the host dies
in agony. Of the 10% who survive, 90% pull a "Joker," and are hideously
disfigured. Most live the rest of their lives shunned and feared. Those
that survive the Black Queen, and do not become Jokers are called Aces,
endowed with some superhuman metability. Most are mental powers,
including strength augmentation through telekinesis. About half the Aces
are Deuces, in that their powers are less than earth shattering (changing
color at will, bending paperclips, etc.)
Although result seems random, there is a method to the madness of the Wild
Card. It seems inherently sentient in spore form, with the recombinant DNA
responding to subconscious triggers. If one fears death, one will pull the
Black Queen. If one fears disfigurement, one will pull a Joker. For those
who have the mental stability and wherewithal, an Ace power awaits. {Wild

psychotropic properties. Those who take it report a hundredfold increase
in cognitive abilities, including the ability to manipulate objects in four
dimensions. This allows for spatial warping, amongst other things. The
box also contains a small card, stating that it is the spice melange (Dune)

A container of protoculture
This metal canister contains a non-renewing power source that when hooked
to a mechanical device allows it to function beyond the limits of
thermodynamics. Thus, gears will drive without heating up or fracturing
from stress. While no better than a standard fuel cell, the energy allows
the machines to run more efficiently. (Robotech)
F*
Flower bulbs, encased in glass
This is a small glass container containing a few specimens of the Invid
Flower of Life. According to reports, the bulb, when released,
spontaneously attempts to flower. Magnetic fields can be employed to
withstand this flowering. The flower resists with a combination of heat,
light, and magnetic force. It is theoretically possible to harness the
heat it puts out, and pump it back into the magnetic field in such a way
that the flower puts out more energy than is brought against it. This
energy, when collected, forms the basis of protoculture. (Robotech)

Pieces from the SDF-1 (Robotech)
Located by a GU team, this is the debris from a ship that crashed on

Stoppered Vial in Steel Insulated Case
Inside this vial is a nasty biological weapon. The original strain of
influenza from which it was derived was discovered in a bottle of wine
sealed during the Influenza Outbreak of 1918. Cultured and strengthened,
it was renamed Captain Tripps, as the fever it induces often unleashes
hallucinogenic flashes, often of a religious nature. Communicability:
100%. Lethality: 99.9% (The Stand)

Kandor
A miniature city inside a bottle, with a life-support mechanism hooked to
the bottle's neck. A high-powered stereoscopic magnifier is pointed at the
bottle; looking through this reveals that the city is inhabited by
near-microscopic humanoids who possess a higher level of technology than
Earth-normal. (From the old "Superman" comics)
F
Moth Man
During the 1950s, rural police around America had to contend with the first
UFO sightings, as well as reports of a humanoid, often over 2.25 m, with
large wings and sharp talons. The "moth man," as it was called, would be
attracted to the headlights of late-night motorists. It would swoop down,
rip at the roof, and wither call of the attack suddenly, or else carry off
the passengers. One such specimen was discovered in Rome, WI, killed, and
brought to the Warehouse.

Devolved humans
During the early 1980s, researchers tried to tap into the ancestral
memories locked within the physical structure of our brains. Employing
hallucinogenic drugs and sensory deprivation tanks, they not only tapped
into these areas of the mind, but they also prompted a physical
transformation into these forms. Several researchers became stuck in these
forms, and were killed. Samples include neanderthalic humanoids and semi-tran
sparent ameboid creatures that seem to ignore the square-cubed rule.

Organic computer bug
This microscopic organism feeds on certain silicon compounds, primarily
those used to create semiconductor material. Such an organism would devour
a computer from within. The scientists developing the organism were trying
to see if it could assemble itself remotely, allowing itself to transmit

researcher apparently tried to sell the secret, and the project was
purged.

Peking Man Skeleton
"Peking Man" was a _Homo erectus_ skeleton unearthed near Zhoukoudian,
China in 1929, and was considered important evidence in favor of human
evolution. After Japan invaded China, scientists moved the bones to Camp
Holcomb (a U.S. Marine base in China) for safekeeping, but the Japanese
captured the base the day before the bones were to be shipped to the United
States. The bones disappeared that day, and have not been relocated.

Frozen blood and tissue samples from inhabitants of Innsmouth, Mass.
This cabinet contains drawers full of vials containing blood, skin, and
organ samples. Many of the skin samples appear to have scales. Most vials
are labeled with names; common surnames include Eliot, Gilman, Marsh,
Sargent, and Waite. An accompanying report, produced jointly by the Office
of Naval Intelligence and the FBI and dated 1928, finds that most of the
samples display some reptilian or amphibian characteristics. A later
report, unsigned and undated, uses DNA matching techniques to come to the

Two Skelentons from Twyford Down.
Twyford Down is the 'site of scientific interest' that the UK government

These Skelentons were taken from the site, as their prescence would
damage the road building campaign. The Male skelenton is 6'9" tall, the
female is 6'5". They have been dated to roughly the Bronze age (the
further tests were stopped). They were buried with weapons, jewelery

Universal Solvent
This appears to be a globe of liquid suspended in mid-air. In actuality,
it is suspended by a magnetic containment field, generated by machinery in
the cabinet that encloses the sphere. A note mentions that this is a
universal solvent, origins unknown. It is capable of "eating" through any
physical substance in a matter of seconds (hence the magnetic containment
field). If the power to the cabinet is cut off, the solvent will drop,
then eat through the cabinet, the floor, and anything else until it reaches
the center of the Earth.
FJM-0037
Tiberium
A large cluster of green crystals that appear to be putting off some sort of
glow. Tiberium is a dense "dynamic proton lattice" held together by exotic
heavy particles. When Tiberium comes into contact with other matter, the heavy
particles randomly collide with the nuclei of the target matter, smashing it
to pieces (in the case of smaller nuclei) or incrementally knocking off
protons or neutrons (in the case of heavier nuclei). Tiberium captures a
fraction of the protons that are ejected during this collision process and
incorporates them into its own structure, thus transmuting matter into more
Tiberium. Whenever one of the heavy particles � a muon or tauon � collides
with an atomic nucleus, fission occurs, which results in the production of
alpha, beta, and gamma radiation as well as other forms of electromagnetic
radiation (like infra-red). During the transmutation process, nuclei that
Tiberium has come into contact with may be changed into nuclei with different
(usually fewer) numbers of protons or neutrons.

One Imperial gallon can of mind-destroying paint.
This paint was perhaps the least bizarre of Constable McCruiskeen's

Several kilograms of Byzanium
The substance, along with a 1889 Colorado newspaper and the body of a Red
Army corporal is stored in a crate. The Byzanium is a naturally occurring
element which can be used in a fission reactor (or bomb) much more
effectively than Uranium or can be used to build an anti-ICBM shield and
make atomic weapons useless. The government finished work on this shield
in 1988. At the end of the cold war, some congressmen started asking
questions about the multi-billion dollar budget of the secret government
agency which produced it. The GC decided to store the Byzanium and all
evidence of its recovery (the newspaper clippings, dead Soviet corporal,
etc) here.

A working orgone energy machine
Wilhelm Reich, an Austrian therapist who eventually emigrates to the U.S.

Radioactive Meteorites (Element 126)
A lead box containing a variety of rocks, ingots of metals, and crystals.
All are formed from Kryptonite. All have a high atomic weight, and are
radioactive, with half-lives of decades to centuries. Kryptonite
eventually decays into iron. It can be melted or vaporized with relatively
conventional means, but is invulnerable to friction. K-radiation (with
some exceptions) only affects natives of the planet Krypton. Ordinary
Green K weakens Kryptonians, and will eventually kill. Anti-Kryptonite is
also green in color, and only debilitates Kryptonians who are not
super-powered. X-Kryptonite (also green) gives temporary powers (normally
including super-strength and flight) to normal humans. Red K affects
Kryptonians randomly (e.g., enormous hair growth or personality shifts).
White K is deadly to all _plant_ life (regardless of planet of origin).
Blue K affects "Bizarros" (imperfect duplicates of Kryptonians) as if it
were Green K. Gold K permanently removes a Kryptonian's powers. Jewel
Kryptonite (crystal form only) can increase the mental powers of
Kryptonians to work across dimensions. {Source: pre-Crisis Superman

Ark of the Covenant
Called the "Aron Haberit" in Hebrew, this ornate, gold-plated wooden chest
was built to hold the two tablets given to Moses by God. The Ark was never
opened after it was originally made. It is the holiest item in Judaism and
was kept in a special place within the Mishkan (the tabernacle built by the
Jews in the desert) and then afterwards in Solomon's and then in Herod's
temples on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The high priest would only enter
the area known as the Holy of Holies once a year. This was the name of the
area where the ark was kept. He did not open the ark, rather he offered
some incense and prayed for the forgiveness of the sins of the Jews. The
Israelites occasionally took the Ark into battle with them to insure the
favor of God. As shown in the movie "Raiders of the Lost Ark", anyone
opening the Ark would release Angelic beings so beautiful that those
looking upon them would die. Presumably there are other uses for the Ark.
In the Old Testament, there is a account of a group of non-Cohanim
(Levites were the Hebrew priest caste, and the Cohanim, descendants of
Aharon the Cohen, dealt exclusively with the Ark) who recovered the Ark
after it was lost in a battle. At one point, the cart they were using to
carry it back teetered, and the Ark began to slide off. One of the
non-Cohanim moved to catch it, and was struck dead on the spot. It is
presumed that the WWII incident occurred during a state of relative
dormancy, though it should be noted that the US government went through an
extensive search to find Levite warehouse workers who would help put it in
storage. {Raiders of the Lost Ark}

A Pair of Huge Ivory Tusks
These are the tusks of Malima Temboz, The Mountain That Walks, the
largest elephant tusks ever collected. The left tusk weighs 226 pounds, and
the right weighs 214 pounds. Both tusks are in excess of 3m. (All of this
data is real. The tusks are currently supposed to be stored in the British
Museum of Natural History). According to the book "Ivory" by Mike Resnick,
the two tusks are sacred to the Masaai, and their race is cursed to dwindle
and die until they have performed a blood sacrifice of an uncircumcised
Masaai youth on the Ivory.

The first Deryni Altar
The categorization of this artifact is difficult, since Deryni magic
partakes of both the Divine and the Psychic. This Altar is a huge cube that
appears to be made up of 8 smaller cubes, 4 black and 4 white. The cubes
are arranged in an alternating checkerboard, so that each cube of one color
has an opposite color cube touching each of 3 faces.

A Roman Army shield.
4 feet high by 3 feet wide. Has a slight outside curve from the sides to
the middle. The shield has a cover over it. The documents with the shield
say that this is the last shield of Constantine the Great's Army. These
shields were painted with the true symbol of the Lord. When it is carried
in battle that side cannot lose. The symbol has been lost except for this
shield. The documents show that the shield was checked out for the Civil
War and WWII. They also show that JFK asked that the shield be sent to
Vietnam one week before he died.

The Lament Configuration
Alternatively known as the LeMachard Puzzle Cube, this box measures 9 cm
on a side, and seems to be made of wood with exquisitely gilt sides. If
solved, the box would summon the Cenobites, who would take you to your
final rewards. {Hellraiser, The Hellbound Heart, by Clive Barker}

The Killer Joke
Copies of the World's Funniest Joke from the Monty Python Skit. There
is an English, and a German version. Both versions are sealed in envelopes,
with the warning not to open an envelope if you speak the language of the
version inside. The joke is so funny that anyone reading or hearing the
joke will die laughing within 5 minutes. Even a few words of the joke can
prove debilitating. {Monty Python}
