Anomaly #0019 is a ROBLOX badge labeled "Branding" which was formerly (see addendum a) obtainable through the ROBLOX website and 2013 ROBLOX Client. Upon being obtained, #0019 would become visible on the infected user's profile under the "Roblox Badges" section. Attempting to interact with the badge without having prior access to it would lead to an "Error 404" page on the ROBLOX website.

During March - May 2013, the primary way this badge was obtained, according to archived internal scripts, was by logging in on a parental-controlled account on the ROBLOX website, or by having an active client login between the time of 00:00 - 05:30 Pacific Standard Time. Once obtained, the user would recieve a message from the official ROBLOX profile congratulating their achievement, attaching a link leading to a group page (henceforth classified as Anomaly #0019-A). Despite broad obtainment requirements, only 0.05% of recorded user traffic between March - May 2013 (per archive) obtained Anomaly #0019.

Following the first reported incidents surrounding "#0019", ROBLOX Admins began to scrub any mention or placement of the anomalous badge. However, the internal script running on the website was not fully removed until May, where it officially was nullified to the general population (see addendum b). Depsite this, there are still several abandoned accounts on the ROBLOX website which still currently possess "#0019" on their profile While these accounts have been dormant for over five years, they continue to be closely monitored by designated R.A. staff. For more information, contact admin.

Addendum A:

Following the []/[]/[] "#0019" incidents report, Anomaly #0019 has had their R.T.U. status changed from safe to dangerous. Additionally, "#0019" and "#0019-A" are no longer classified as nullified. Information provided by the most recent incidents report has provided further clarification on the status and functionality of "#0019", alongside the activity of "#0019-A".

[ Following standard procedure checkup on infected user [Content Hidden], logs showed activity from user just an hour prior despite the account being dormant for close to 9 years. Of important note, staff member [Content Hidden] made notice of Anomaly #0019 being interactable on the user's page despite the fact that the viewing account did not have prior access to "#0019". Violating standard procedure set by "#0019" Monitoring Team, staff member [Content Hidden] interacted with "#0019" and was redirected to [Content Hidden], a domain hosted by "#0019-A". Latest activity from staff member [Content Hidden]'s device shows them being on the website for 168 hours as of writing. No further contact has been made ] - []/[]/[] "#0019" Incident Report, Section 1, Part 3.

Addendum B:

As of []/[]/[], dormant accounts with "#0019" displayed on their profile have been updated to make "#0019" linkable to a website domain hosted by "#0019-A". This update has been made available to all infected users, regardless of last login time. Investigations into reactivating are currently ongoing.

Screenshots of the "Illumina Ascensio" group from 2013.

Anomaly #0019-A

Anomaly Surname: "Illumina Ascensio"

Anomaly Type: "Roblox Group"

Risk to Users: Safe Dangerous

Anomaly Status: Nullified Active

Anomaly #0019-A were are a series of multiple user-created groups on the ROBLOX website going by the name of "Illumina Ascensio" or of similar variation. "#0019-A" was first alerted to R.A. staff following the May 2013 cleanup by ROBLOX administration. Leaked code during the cleanup revealed a digital signature which was traced back to the group and its affiliated membership, claiming responsibility for the creation of "#0019". As of []/[]/[], three known "#0019-A" groups have been content deleted. The current known group goes under the name "if illumina is true then ascend".

Recovered information from one of "#0019-A"'s website domains reveals the group to be active beyond the ROBLOX platform, operating on several other MMO websites. Despite this, ROBLOX has been claimed to be the group's "greatest trials".

According to a manifesto uploaded to "#0019-A"'s games through the description function, Illumina Ascensio believes that the continued development of the world wide web is contributing to the rebuilding of a virtual "Gateway to Heaven", as described in Christian biblical text. People who achieve "#0019", otherwise known as "the branding" by "#0019-A", are eligible to participate in a series of trials which would "determine their worthiness to recieve ascension." It is highly believed that these trials are non-voluntary for infected users.

What is involved with these trials is not yet understood, though as of []/[]/[], they are still actively ran on other MMO websites Illumina Ascensio operates on. As of []/[]/[], they are being ran through the ROBLOX website again.

To ensure the "spiritual cleanliness" of the gateway as it is developed, the group uses human sacrifices. According to their archived manifesto, the rationale used by the group to use human sacrifices is to "bind the conscious, physical reality of god's most purest, young of form creatures into the cognitive ethereal project of a new humanity; to mend their pure-heart souls as the stones to paradise." Human sacrifices are directly produced through uses infected with "#0019", evidence suggesting the group uses a variety of methods to encourage self inflicted death outside the ROBLOX platform. These methods have included: blackmail, doxxing, swatting, usage of flashing imagery, and consistent cyber-harassment for months at a time.

Under any circumstances, do not reach out to the aforementioned groups of interest.
