Description: AEP-120-1 is an antiquities store located in [REDACTED], South Korea. It currently has thirteen individuals under its employ, all of which exhibited no anomalous properties.
AEP-120-2 are any items sold by AEP-120-1. Items ranged from old jars of archaic designs to cutleries made out of ceramics. AEP-120-2 instances exhibited anomalous properties, which are only triggered in events that compromises the safety of its owners.
AEP-120-3 are Type-3 semi-corporeal benevolent entities housed within AEP-120-2. Provocation of AEP-120-3 instances through other means are impossible aside from the only known recorded condition. AEP-120-3, when activated, projected Class-5 elemental thaumaturgy against a target. The assortment of the exhibited property varies from one -3 instance to another.
Currently, it was unknown how AEP-120-1 generated AEP-120-2 items in a short period of time as they were observed to possess stocks in their inventories despite the constant purchases of customers.
Addendum: AEP-120-1's existence was unearthed through the discovery of AEP-120-3. Noise complaints from the neighbors of Mr. [REDACTED], a resident of Ontario, Canada, who recently bought an instance of AEP-120-2. When a break-in occurred within the household of Mr. [REDACTED], AEP-120-2's properties were triggered and AEP-120-3 was activated. The closed-circuit camera installed within Mr. [REDACTED]'s home revealed a burning humanoid entity mangling the intruder before incinerating him.
Association personnel embedded within Ontario Police Department took interest in the case and investigated the captured event.
Shortly, another AEP-120-3 activation event was located in Paris, France, after a video of a semi-transparent incorporeal humanoid entity chasing a reported intruder of a house and dispensing sharp projectiles from its hands circulated in the internet. The video was taken down by Association webcrawlers and field agents in Paris were notified.
Association personnel investigated and compared both cases, which eventually pointed them to the AEP-120-2 items due to the fact that the AEP-120-3 instances appeared after the owners' purchases of the items. The items were traced back to a store in [REDACTED], South Korea, now designated as AEP-120-1.
Value Assessment: AEP-120-3 entities within AEP-120-2 were effective as protection assets against site intruders. Negotiations with the owners of AEP-120-1 for the bulk purchase of AEP-120-2 items in exchange for security, as ordered by GS5 Command, was successful.
