Records on AMC-027 《OPIEL》

Classification: Unassigned (Estimated: Hazard or Named)

 A special subject where a poppy (Papaver somniferum) was transformed into a Variant through the intervention of 'Him.' She possesses the highest level of intelligence and social skills among subjects identified to date and can freely maintain a human female form.

 While the subject is capable of conversation and emotional expression with humans, it has been confirmed that most of this is a disguise to achieve her goals. Her true nature is extremely selfish, and she does not trust others. She tends to view not only humans but even fellow Variants strictly as objects to be exploited.

 However, due to her original nature as an annual plant, the subject experiences severe mood swings. While she shows child-like innocence or curiosity in certain situations, frequent emotional shifts, such as revealing extreme hostility and vengefulness, are observed.

 Usually blunt and showing little emotion, she skillfully acts out a bright and innocent tone and behavior when necessary. Such actions are currently judged to be calculated social disguises.

 Her appearance is a female subject characterized by long red wavy hair and poppy flower ornaments, appearing in Gothic-style clothing with a harmony of red and black. It is speculated that she is imitating ancient Sumerian attire. Her body and clothing show no significant difference from humans to the naked eye, but upon contact, a texture similar to petals rather than general fiber is confirmed.

 The subject transforms parts of her body into stems with strength exceeding steel for use in attacks and restraint. She can also disperse hallucinogenic spores, and exposed targets are highly likely to be affected by emotional manipulation along with paralysis symptoms.

 If specific emotions exceed a limit, the subject enters a 'Berserk' state. At this time, her head transforms into a giant poppy flower, and she initiates large-scale destructive acts while losing most of her reason. Through this case, the AMC confirmed for the first time that Variant rampages are directly related to strong emotional changes. AMC-027 was designated as a Named subject to be disposed of, but was easily suppressed for some reason. Therefore, her risk level was temporarily designated as Hazard (Low Risk).

 Additionally, during long-term interviews with the subject, the possibility of the existence of the unidentified entity currently called 'Him' was first reported. This entity is presumed to be directly related to the birth of Variants, but its identity remains unconfirmed.

 Furthermore, she likes her self-proclaimed homeland Sumer, clean water from rain and melted glaciers, having her petals groomed, stories and fairy tales about the new world, and sincere gratitude. Conversely, she appears to harbor extreme hatred for tap water and seawater, humans, being rejected, researchers (Stigma), fire, cold environments, and scissors.

 Recently, the subject has continuously shown behavior suggesting mitigated hostility compared to her initial containment. However, it has not yet been confirmed whether these changes are genuine psychological shifts or a long-term disguise for a new purpose, and the AMC has designated this as a top-priority observation target.
