Michael Collins Extradimensional Research Society

An international research group dedicated to the extradimensional study regarding the plane of existence called the Farplane (or known as the Spatia here), separate to the Zooliminology project.

Intro

(OOC IS BELOW. PLEASE READ)

We're the Michael Collins Extradimensional Research Society!

We study the Spatia and its Neo-Fauna/Flora/Funga & Incogna!

Each department will make their own post in due time and their respective researchers may make their own post about themselves if they wish.

--

OOC Section: this is a project relating to Zooliminology, but we are not affiliated with them! please keep that in mind.

If we should stop this blog or using the tag on this post please contact toyotamatchstickcollective on discord.

We will not be using any artwork or assets from Zooliminology, aside from the bare premise, unless we are given permission otherwise

To the rest of the staff on this account, please also contact me if you need assistance, ooc or not.

Colloquial Name: Dustie

Scientific Name: Afa aemula

Regions: Brutalia, Ecobrutalia, Greenhouses

Basic Physical Description: Individuals are typically roughly spherical in shape with large imperfections in them, ranging from approximately 25 microns to 1000 microns or 1 milimeter in diameter. The hiveminds can range anywhere from just two Dusties to enough to make a mound the size of a car.

Basic Behavioural Description: Has no known unique behaviours. All known behaviours are imitations of other behaviours observed in creatures that inhabit the same regions. Believed to imitate the behaviours of other creatures. Observed behaviours will be listed below.

Good morning Fox,

I apologize for replying so late, though even now, I'm still not quite sure what would be appropriate to mention in the introduction. I know to include that I am your assistant, and other general information like that. Though some valuable general information doesn't sound quite right to include. For example; neither of us sleep much, we have our own specialized (affordable) safety protocols, my favorite cube, and how you kidnapped me..

Actually, on the topic of sleep; next time we acquire money (through natural and thoroughly legal means), could we please buy a pillow?

I seem to sleepwalk to the roof every time I use the bed, implying that i subconsciously find it preferable...

But your guess is as good as mine..

Anyhow, please let me know about all this when you get a chance.

Thanks,

Konissan

Regarding general information, I feel it should be clarified, I did not kidnap anyone, despite what it things appear to be, I have never, and most definitely will never kidnap anyone—or, well, I've kidnapped a couple people, but that doesn't prove anything. I did not kidnap you, Jeanne, or anyone else in MCERS, these accusations are completely baseless and unfounded.

Regarding the request for a pillow, unfortunately, we have no room in the budget for that, my new cat is putting me a few more million dollars in debt.

Decided to attempt digital art for the first time, tried to draw Jack Fox in the artstyle of @hisclockworkservants' SCP drawings, I hope I did their artstyle justice 😅. I realise now that I drew him really scary looking, but I promise he's not that scary, he's completely harmless! tools used were Krita, mouse, and caffeine.

Where does MCERS get funding from?

A handful of volunteers here also work part time jobs, such as engineering, and photography, some of us have savings from our past ventures, which we use to fund MCERS. VIRC is largely funded by very generous loans from a group of suited Italian men. Although, to cut costs, we often procure parts for various machinery through a process we like to call "Tactical Harnessing of Effectively Free Technology", on an unrelated note, ignore it if you hear something digging through something, it's probably just a raccoon.

Sorry it took so long for me to say anything, procrastination got me

Audio Log #001

Just found and am now transcribing some old tapes from the VIRC facility, I will be posting them every so often when they finish transcribing. Here is one that was already transcribed, -Fox

Log #001

Date: 24/12/-1

[Tape start]

*whirring sound*

*clears throat*

"Today my research on the anomaly finally reached a point, I finished creating my Magnum Opus, the Object Clipper!"

"Tomorrow I plan to test it myself, I wonder if there will be anything on the other side, it's entirely possible it'll just be a blank nothingness with no matter at all."

"If all goes well, I will have entered another dimension, and perhaps even discover new life!"

"If I do find new life, I wonder if they'll have reached the stage of sapience..."

"Hopefully I will eventually be able to gain government funding and not have to rely on materials gleaned from my old lab-[voice breaks]"

*sighs*

"[unintelligible] would've wanted [inaudible]"

"…"

"Well, I suppose that concludes my first tape documenting the Spatia."

*clicks*

John Russia introduction

Greetings to everyone, I am John Russia, Head of the Cork Documentation and Research Facility (CDRF), I don't mind what you call me.

Despite my last name indicating my Russian heritage, i was born in America. I was an engineer for most of my life, working on cars and other devices, I founded the Cork Division when i had noticed that things had a tendency to disappear and reappear, at first i doubted it, believing it to be my terrible memory, then i saw a pipe clip myself. I decided to look further into it and built a device that allowed me to enter Spatia by quite literally ripping a hole in space using a car engine and some other scrap i had found, when i had arrived inside Spatia i was greeted by a vast new world, i had also discovered the 2 other facilities, and the rest is history.

You may not see me often on social media as i am almost always working, but if you do see me at the facility, don't be afraid to say Hi. I hope to see you all in the MCERS soon, good bye

Jack Fox Introduction

Hello! Name's Jack Fox, although you can call me Fox. I run the Vancouver Irregularity Research Community (VIRC) of MCERS. I discovered the Object Clipping method of entering the Spatia.

Around ten years ago I found an irregularity in some fundamentals, after that I started the VIRC. Seven years after that, I began research on accessing this irregularity using methods of Object Clipping, and about three years later, I made Object Clipping a reality! Once I accessed the irregularity, I found that there were two other research groups on the other side. Which brings us to the present day!

I apologise if I act like you're not there, sometimes I see things that aren't rael. Sorry, I'm a little tired, but I can't miss the opportunity to discover something new, I hope to see you in the MCERS!
