Recent Updates
June 3, 2007
Subject has been successfully extricated to our Rogue Isles division, with moderate cost and casualties to company funds and property thanks to the expedited work of Rhiannon Gladstone. She arrived encased in ice and in hibernation. Our contact within Hero Corps has assured us that all surveillance data from the subjects extrication will be sealed and unreleased. There should be minimal to no inquiry to her disappearance. Will continue to monitor associate Brendan Aft <<Subject Reference #25jf125>>, and all others associated with the subject prior to extrication. Find attached to this report surveillance photos from our Woodvale facilities of the extrication performed by Rhiannon Gladstone. ((See "Project Ares: Kidnapped by Crey" for transcript and visualizing))
She has been sedated and placed within a suspended state for the work to be done, she reacted quite negatively to me and needed to be sedated before the berserker personality took over, review of video files from her extrication note her conversation with Rhiannon Gladstone as the source for her anger. We have completed the process of comparing her current DNA to the samples taken recently to ensure the cloned body will work for our purposes.
There is concern regarding the damage done to her body from the radiation poisoning in Woodvale, we will be using the methods obtained through research on Rikti technology to transfer her consciousness into the prepared clone. We have received word from Requiems liaison here in the Isles that the animal traits are desirable for the final product. There is a risk in the body transfer of losing her consciousness, this could spell doom for the project given her developed ability to control her berserker with her psionic abilities. Risk has been determined to be within acceptable ranges.
June 7, 2007
The process is complete, the final abilities should naturally develop over the next several weeks giving her finer control over her psychic abilities, and physical prow-less. There has been a noted side effect of the consciousness transfer to her new body, specifically memory loss, she seems unable to remember where she is, she does however recognize me but there is no present hostility as seen upon her arrival. Memory loss however may be temporary, we will use conditioning to overcome and residual resistance. Her non-mutated state should also be less dominant, and with her control of her own body she should be able to will the change without the need for the suppressor. We will monitor her for several more weeks before turning her over to Requiems liaison.
We have fitted her with an internal emergency teleportation device should she need to be retrieved.
June 10, 2007
She has reported nightmares and increasingly realistic dreams, she appears to have no memory of anything from the war to the present. We have told her she was in a coma from the war 5 years ago and that I was able to get her out of Woodvale after the initial bombardment. She was then resuscitated after I was able to develop technology with the aid of Crey to help her. However she seems persistent, especially regarding Brendan, however with time she will eventually let it go, and we will begin the process of melding her memory to our needs shortly. She has taken to this story well, however Rhiannon Gladstone has recently attempted to contact Ava and convince her that it was false. Ava resisted, and I will deal with her on a later date, she is a loose cannon should be removed. I will seek a termination order for her.
Ava's training has also begun to refine her strength and skills with hand to hand combat. The separate berserker personality appears to have completely melded with her own, and her psionic abilities appear to have become stronger and more lethal, there is also a noted increase in her strength and agility due to the merging of the two personalities, she has begun training with Requiem's liaison and other units within the Isles.
Historical Notes
<<Included Historical Reference: Biogenics case #333rt0zt "DoD Soldier Plus Project - "Ares">>
Report Filed by: Annette Mannheim (ref# 04rt58s8)
October 12, 1984
As expected the subject has taken badly to Agent 5541 code named Ares, resulting in mania, paranoia, rage, and overall insanity. I have been unsuccessful to date with repeating my fathers results from world war 2, I wonder perhaps if subjects will respond better if the agent is administered in-utero. However I doubt the DoD is willing to accept that sort of slow turn around. Will seek approval for continued internal testing.
November 2, 1984
The DoD has pulled the plug on the project, Biogenics is concerned about the lack of funds and has secured funds for the program through known 5th Column associates. I have been green lighted for a single in utero test of the agent while continued research is completed on simian test subjects.
December 20, 1984
Using my fathers eugenic notes I selected my husband specifically, I will use his DNA combined with my own to create a child merged with "Ares" for invitro-fertilization. As of this date 4 embryos were successfully harvested for the project. Work on engineering the embryos begins tomorrow, this will be my only chance, if I fail 4 times the in utero portion of the project will be shelved.
February 10, 1985
Invitro-Fertilization is successful, I am approximately two weeks pregnant with embryo #3. Project has now been classified "Janus", the simian tests of "Ares" have been shelved, subjects exhibit far to much rage for sustainability. I will begin the regime of drugs for fetus development with "Ares" today and will monitor the child on a weekly basis.
April 20, 1985
Fetus development is on schedule, with marked advanced developments in cognitive function, no negative results thus far. I however have begun to feel quite ill, Stephen says my temper has been out of control. Will continue to monitor both myself and the child for any negative developments. "Ares" genetic modifications appear to be intact.
July 30, 1985
The child is due soon, the fetus is exceptionally active and healthy with amazing developments in cognitive abilities and motor function. I have been placed on bed rest and my anger and temper have shown marked increases. While I have moments of lucidity I can't help but feel like I'm losing control, this could be a side effect of Ares usage on the child. Funding officials with the 5th Column have agreed that I will be the one to raise the project while work is completed on the catalyst project codenamed Effervescence.
August 29, 1985
Child was born without incident on August 27, 1985, I have begun medication to handle my violent outbursts and temper issues. Child has no physical deformities present. Will continue to monitor child into adulthood. Child has been named Ava.
March 18, 1990
Ava seems to present some of the rage and other negative tendencies of "Ares" test subjects. She however appears to have much finer control over the outbursts. Her intelligence seems to be highly developed for her age, and her physical prow-less is also enhanced. So far the project appears to be a success.
November 29, 1992
Biogenics has been purchased by Crey Biotech. Crey has green-lighted continued work on this project under 5th column funding.
June 20 1997
Ava continues to develop at astounding records, her IQ ratio was determined to be in the unmeasurable range greater then 200, she is quite athletic and fit for her age, however as she begins puberty the rage seems to be affected by her hormonal fluctuations. Will continue to monitor and perhaps begin a medical regime to control the outbursts if they become uncontrollable.
September 5, 2000
Project Effervescence is reaching completion for the final park of project Janus to be under way. Ava's temper has become unmanageable at times. Participation in sports has helped, however there have been multiple incidents of her severely harming opponents and teammates. Interestingly enough she doesn't seem to remember these outbursts of calculated mayhem very well. Is it possible "Ares" developed as a separate cognitive function?
April 30, 2002
Project Effervescence is complete, catalyst of project is set for Ava's birthday in August. Finally this project will be completed after 17 years of waiting. I will be on assignment in Crey's Rogue Isles division for the next month, a body double will take my place here with my family until I return for the project catalyst. My husband is still unaware of anything that has gone on.
February 2, 2003
Early surveillance from Woodvale at the onset of the war shows Ava mutated, however the catalyst appears to have happened, if not completely she has developed some of her powers but not all. One negative side effect also appears to be physical mutation and combining with some animal, believed to be a type of rat. Project should still be salvageable, will continue to monitor from a distance while control facilities in Paragon are rebuilt by Crey. I will remain in the Rogue Isles covertly until then.
April 12, 2007
The building of the project Effervescence lab here in the Rogue Isles is completed. Ava has received the information left for her on Crey's systems in Paragon and has apparently already completed building the genetic suppressing device. Far beyond my original hopes, she has developed beautifully. A priority capture has been put out for her, the project will be completed, and the data turned over to the project owners. The information will also be useful for other projects currently on going for my division.
