UA-566 is a sapient entity dwelling inside of the body of a roughly 30-year-old biologically male human. The entity inside of UA-566 claims to be the collective consciousness of the symbiotic organisms living inside of the body. It claims to not understand human socio-emotional concepts such as art or self-expression. It seems to have a preservation instinct informed by experience with human technology, as it has always attempted to avoid firearms, knives, and electric shock during testing.
The most noticeable anomalous quality of UA-566 after initial containment is the carnivorous parasite (Taenia crinium) housed in its neck and scalp, henceforth referred to as UA-566-A. UA-566-A is completely fused with the primary body of UA-566, and efforts to remove the parasite has lead to the near-death of UA-566 numerous times (see Transcription:1-4A). UA-566-A is comprised of numerous tendrils that grow from the host's scalp, disguising itself as thick, oily hair. These tendrils can extend a surprising length from the central body of the host and easily squeeze through tight spaces. Underneath the tendrils is a gnashing mouth at the base of UA-566's neck that is constantly pulls perceived food into itself. A number of thorny teeth have also grown out of the central mouth of UA-566-A, buried within the pseudo-hair as well as at the top UA-566's forehead, forming a line of sharp bones reminiscent of a crown.
It is apparent that UA-566-A has a level of autonomous control that occasionally overrides the collective consciousness inside of UA-566. UA-566-A has grappled and bitten a number of researchers in the past, and testing on UA-566 now requires a metal hairnet to keep UA-566-A under control.
UA-566 claims that UA-566-A is a "new addition" to it's "collection," and therefore struggles to follow the commands of the central consciousness. It claims to be improving its control over UA-566-A but a statistical analysis of recent incidents involving UA-566 have demonstrated this to likely be a falsehood.
*Addendum 566-1:* It appears as though UA-566 has developed a stronger neurological link with UA-566-A. It claims to have "worked out their differences" and "bonded over a shared love of eating." Note that UA-566-A has not been recorded to have any interest in anything other than the consumption of raw meat.
*Addendum 566-2:* UA-566 has gained an enhanced level of agility with their limb, being able to squeeze its tendrils into extremely tight spaces without sacrificing manual dexterity. It is now capable of opening doors from the inside of its containment unit. Ensure that security doors are water-tight in order to prevent a security breach.

Beneath the low glistening hood of the old sailor's rain slicker lay a gray swollen face and unkempt white beard. The lips part to reveal a bloated tan arthropod instead of a tongue. It fills his mouth and throat, repositioning the bulk of it's body into his torso. It's nerve endings mercilessly burrowed into the poor sailor's brain. The swollen eyes widen slightly and the flesh beneath the chest roils and ripples as a thick tentacle bursts from the open mouth, covered in curved spines.
When the glaciers melted and the forgotten ages trapped within released their bounty into the warming oceans, eldritch waves crashed against mankind's shores.

After losing his hand his arm had amputated because of infection, then a ghost named Roman, of which had died far over two centuries ago, formed a new one.

A wide bronze ring, able to shrink down to fit around whoever wears it. The ring has the image of a hammer impressed on the front. Pressing one's thumb against the symbol causes auditory hallucinations of a blacksmith's workshop and a quick impression of the scent of overpowering sulfur. It's made to slip over the stump of a missing arm or leg, completely bringing it back for as long as it is fitted. The bronze is much lighter and stronger than it should be. When it is in use, the flesh seemingly regenerates, remaking the limb in perfect health, making it as much like the original limb as possible, including birthmarks and scars. The scene is like watching a time lapse film of a creature like a gecko regenerating a lost limb, starting stubby and filling in. If the limb is a leg or foot, the foot portion can become dexterous with a thought.
Hephaestus often made wondrous creations but none of them could truly help him overcome the limitations of his godly flesh. This ring was one attempt, an attempt to restore strength to his legs (the ring has a twin but it has long since been lost). However, the ring only works on missing limbs, not crippled ones. Furious, the god of fire and creation threw the rings out of his workshop, letting them roll to the foot of Mount Etna where they were retrieved at a later date by a daring Athenian merchant.

The Passenger rips forward out of the host's flesh, spraying the ground and anyone near with warm blood. It surges forward, carrying all of its malice and anger to pierce straight through any who stand before it. Though The Passenger itself is about a liter of crimson, the activation of this ability releases a torrent of blood that can be easily controlled and manipulated by its host. The dark red stays close to the host, not usually moving beyond five feet from the host, but the extra manifested blood can be controlled up to 30 feet away.
While the host remains competent and capable, The Passenger will behave, being as vicious or soft as its controller requires. It does not, however, tolerate failures, and when its host cannot meet its demands, it attempt to find another, more suitable host to augment.
The Passenger can be destroyed or stolen in a number of ways:
* Injecting the host with anticoagulants.
* Sucking it out of the part of the body that it inhabits.
* Severing the limb that it inhabits.
* Something able to grapple incorporeal creatures should be able to pull The Passenger out of its host.
* Once dead, The Passenger will burst out of the host's body to find a new host.
