Notes[]

  • Correction: The rate of cooldown is not -50% exponentially per stack, as the actual formula is 60/stacks. So while going from 1 to 2 stacks the cooldown increases by 50%, this does not follow the same pattern for any other stack number.

Notes:

- Taking a moment to contain myself.
- It's been quite a while since we've received a sample--INTACT sample--so I am being abundantly cautious.
- Sample is in excellent condition.  I am pleased with the care Jiminez took compared to her predecessor.
- Sample appears to be an undocumented carcinized species.  Perhaps a juvenile?
- Attempting to biopsy epidermis
- Exterior of the sample is too hard for my scalpel
- I believe I have found the oral cavity.  Attemping oral biopsy.
