描述 (Description)

The Deros (an abbreviation for “Detrimental Robots”) are a race of stunted, horribly deformed humanoids dwelling within the vast, cavernous networks beneath the Earth’s crust. They are widely regarded as the remnants of the ancient Lemurian civilization, a society that achieved peak technological advancement before abandoning the surface world to seek refuge in subterranean vaults.

“They are not ghosts, nor are they demons. They are the madness of an ancient world, curdled by radiation and the crushing weight of the deep earth.” — Excerpts from the Shaver Files

• Physiological State: Pale, translucent skin often stretched over vestigial skeletal structures. Their physical forms have suffered massive genetic degradation due to long-term exposure to subterranean radiation and the lack of natural sunlight.
• Psychological Profile: Subjected to eons of isolation, the Deros have descended into a collective, sadistic psychosis. They view surface-dwelling humanity as a source of amusement and a target for their technological cruelty.
• Technological Prowess: Despite their primitive appearance, the Deros possess legacy access to ancient ‘ray’ machines. These devices allow them to manipulate local probability fields, projecting frequencies that induce madness, catastrophic accidents, and localized ‘bad luck’ for unsuspecting humans above.

行为逻辑 (Behavioral Logic)

When a Deros cluster becomes active, personnel must strictly adhere to the following operational parameters:

1. Reality Anchoring: Any interaction with Deros territory must be governed by the standard physical and metaphysical laws established in the Hollow Earth Protocol. Their ray machines utilize non-Euclidean geometry; caution is advised.
2. Containment Radius: A 50-meter safety buffer must be maintained around suspected ventilation shafts or seismic anomalies associated with Deros activity.
3. Probability Shielding: Field researchers are required to utilize harmonic dampeners to mitigate the effect of the Deros’ influence on human neuro-chemistry.

现代异常收容改编 (Modern Anomaly Adaptation)

While the Shaver Mystery remains a fringe element of mid-20th-century occultism, modern monitoring suggests the Deros may have transitioned from biological entities to entities capable of influencing the digital realm.

• Digital Infestation: Recent reports suggest that Deros ‘ray’ frequencies are now being encoded into high-speed internet data packets, potentially causing mass-hysteria or erratic behavior in urban populations.
• Containment Proposal: It is recommended that the Foundation implements a global ‘White Noise’ firewall to scrub subterranean-originating signals from the civilian web.

Researcher Note: Any personnel discovering tunnels or anomalous cavities showing signs of pre-human machinery are to report immediately to the Department of Subterranean Anomalies. Do not attempt to interface with the machines.
