Background Story
First catalogued by the JustUnleash field unit during a routine sweep of broken vending alcoves. Stepwise Traveller is currently designated Unknown and demonstrates behavior consistent with classification Unknown. Estimated threat index is 45/100 (MODERATE). The entity primarily operates on a 47-minute hunting cycle synced to fluorescent flicker rates and has been encountered on 4 separate documented occasions.
Origin
Origin remains [UNKNOWN-LEVEL HYPOTHESIS]. Recovered field recordings suggest the entity may be a manifestation of interdimensional being phenomena native to deeper sectors. Cross-reference with parallel sightings in adjacent levels.
Behavior
Primary observed behavior: operates on a 47-minute hunting cycle synced to fluorescent flicker rates. Secondary cycle on a 40-minute interval.
Containment Procedures
Maintain perimeter of no less than 29 meters. Avoid use of open flame. Sector lockdown protocol JU-1A applies if three sightings occur within 24 hours.
Investigation Notes
Sensor logs indicate elevated electromagnetic readings during all confirmed encounters. Theoretical model places this entity within the Core stratum.
