R-3043

 Relic #:  R-3043

 Safety class:  α

 Usage class:  Tool

 Physical description:  Ladders with "sotp please" written with marker on it.

 Anomalous properties:  As soon as somebody attempts to climb R-3043, they will be transported into an alternate universe called R-3043-1.

R-3043-1's most major deviation from the baseline universe is the fact that somebody is already climbing R-3043 and an accident is likely. This occurs through a chain of events leading up to an accident, in a fashion which follows the least-deviation principle.

To go back to the baseline universe, the subject has to obtain R-3043 and climb it up to the top rung again. As soon as they do this, they manifest where they climbed R-3043, in baseline reality.

 Special safety notes:  Experimentation is not permitted.

 History:  R-3043 was recovered from 2595 shortly after his argument with Dr [EXPUNGED]. 2595 said his plan was to annoy [EXPUNGED] because he had been actively opposed to 2595's research efforts. Investigation is ongoing.
