Anomaly #0023, referred to as "NUBTYPE", is a malformed Robloxian NPC known to have appeared between late 2008 and early 2010 in a small number of unexplained, often unlisted game instances. First dismissed as corrupted character assets or failed rig imports, deeper investigation confirmed the entity's anomalous behavior and destructive impact on both client and hardware.

NUBTYPE is typically described as a noob-like humanoid figure with exaggerated proportions, an erratic walk cycle, and visual defects such as:
- Texture flickering
- Skybox bleed-through
- Black void patches in the head or torso

While originally classified as a visual bug, confirmed reports of the entity emitting whispering audio, initiating pursuit behavior, and causing client crashes have reclassified its presence as hostile and structurally dangerous.

Remains idle until player visibility is detected.
Upon visual contact, initiates slow but consistent movement toward the player.
Client audio is overridden with faint whispering, often in reversed Roblox UI sounds or fragmented chat logs.

Contact with NUBTYPE causes:
- Roblox client to freeze
- In some cases, a full system lock or forced shutdown
- Partial corruption of file directories, most notably:
   %LOCALAPPDATA%\Roblox\logs
   Documents\Roblox\Autosaves

NUBTYPE emits a looping whisper sound during pursuit. The whisper contains:
- Low-pass filtered user chat lines from 2008-2009
- Echoed versions of the player’s own display name
- Reversed lines from default system announcements (e.g., “You have lost connection to the game”)

Games infected by NUBTYPE cannot be reopened through normal means.
Reuploading a place file that contained the entity may result in:
   Crashing Studio upon opening
   Generating new corrupted variants of the entity ("NUBTYPE-B", unconfirmed)
Entity is non-indexed: does not appear in Explorer or Workspace, even while visible.
Appears immune to :remove() or :Destroy() methods.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INTERACT. NUBTYPE is marked as FORBIDDEN due to its hardware-level risk and corruption potential.

Trial 001 — 4:42 AM:
Loaded "arena_baseplate_demo_09.rbxl" — skybox instantly shifts to a static orange tone. NUBTYPE appears at edge of baseplate. No source in Explorer.

Trial 002 — 4:44 AM:
Entity begins moving without pathing. Player model control becomes delayed. Audio distortion begins — sounds like reversed whispering.

Trial 003 — 4:45 AM:
Screen freezes. Roblox Player closes with no crash log. System restarts. Cursor stutters for several minutes post-reboot.

Entity Status: Dormant
Known last appearance in trace data: 2010-02-16.
