Containment Breach

The Old Man appears to be an elderly humanoid, with a general appearance of advanced decomposition. This appearance may vary, but the “rotting” quality is observed in all forms. The Old Man causes a “corrosion” effect in all solid matter it touches, engaging a physical breakdown in materials several seconds after contact. This is observed as rusting, rotting, and cracking of materials, and the creation of a black, mucus-like substance similar to the material that coats The Old Man. The Old Man is capable of passing through solid matter, leaving behind a large patch of its corrosive mucus. The Old Man is able to “vanish” inside solid matter, entering what is assumed to be a form of “pocket dimension”. The Old Man is then able to exit this dimension from any point connected to the initial entry point.
