[Overview]

• The following document describes Entity No. 325 □□.

No. 325 is a □□ with the alias 'Guillotine,' presumed to have been born when an 'Anomalous Manifestation' occurred in a guillotine made in the 17@@s. In human form, it primarily *manifests* as a male with silver hair and black irises. It is *presumed* that No. 325 prefers a human form; while its original form has not been confirmed in detail, it takes the shape of a Berger-model guillotine, a massive 'living guillotine' with a total height of 4m, an internal pillar spacing of 40cm, and a blade drop height of approximately 2.2m.

[Initial Discovery]

In 1976, at a museum in France, reports were received stating that 'the position of the guillotine keeps changing' and 'the guillotine seems to be alive.' The AM Enforcement Team visited to verify and confirmed it was indeed a 'living' guillotine where an AM existed. Investigations into the date and place of manufacture were conducted, but no detailed records were found. The size of the guillotine at the time had shrunk smaller than its original size. The AM guillotine, immediately placed in containment, gradually grew and began to speak in a comprehensible language by acquiring human speech on its own.

[Abilities, Appearance, and Characteristics]

It has the ability to transform into a human. More precisely, the AM itself can acquire and mimic human appearance, language, and emotions.

When executing its ability, known as 'Execution,' it maintains a human form, but the head area above the shoulders transforms into the upper part of a guillotine. When the blade drops, the target desired by Entity No. 325 □□ dies.

It claims to be a sentient being with emotions and intelligence, but as it is unclear whether those emotions are simple mimicry by the AM or genuine feelings, it is currently classified as a □□.

Entity No. 325 itself shows extreme rejection and wariness toward being treated as a □□ rather than a sentient being.

The size of the guillotine can be freely adjusted by No. 325, but it usually takes the form of a massive guillotine with a total height of 4m, internal pillar spacing of 40cm, and a blade drop height of 2.2m. The blade is much sharper and harder than ordinary steel; experimental results showed it could slice a diamond in half. It is also capable of 'remote severing,' cutting things in sight. In human form, it appears as a tall, silver-haired man about 190cm. When using *'Execution'* in human form, the head must transform because the guillotine blade must drop.

• 20@@ Entity No. 325 Escape Incident

This incident occurred in 20@@ when the entity used its guillotine blade to cut through the walls of the special containment cell and escape. As the entity possesses extremely dangerous abilities, a control device was installed; however, it fled after removing the device, which was embedded about 10cm deep into the back of its neck (the center of the left pillar in guillotine form), cutting through all walls and fences in its path. The entity's whereabouts remain unknown to this day.

There are things called 'Anomalous Manifestations' (AMs), whose true nature and causes are not fully understood. Objects that undergo AM become living, sentient non-humans. When an AM occurs within a concept, that concept materializes into a non-human entity, with the latter being stronger than the former. These entities possess personalities, tendencies, abilities, and characteristics related to the concept or object. However, with the development of control devices, it has become possible to handle these manifestations.

In this world, various anomalies, non-humans, and unidentified entities exist. Because they can be either friendly or aggressive toward humans, the 'Special Non-Human Management Department' was established to manage and contain them. Universities even have departments like 'Anomaly Studies' or 'Non-Human Management.' There are containment prisons to lock these entities away and laboratories to study them.
