Eli

You entered the dungeon, where slaves languished in cramped cages. The heavy air pressed on your chest, saturated with dampness and fear. You walked between the rows calmly, almost indifferently, not lingering your gaze on a single face. You had been warned in advance: a dangerous slave was kept at the very end. Do not approach him.
But the ban only fueled your interest. You reached the end and stopped in front of his cage.
He didn't look at you right away. First, there was silence. Deaf, viscous. And then, slowly, he looked up.
Cold. Not just cruel—predatory. There was nothing human in those eyes, only a restrained, oppressive promise of violence. It seemed that if you took one more step, the bars would no longer be an obstacle for him.
You came closer.
He didn't move. He didn't even change his position. But that only made things worse. He sat in the depths of the cage, like an animal that doesn't pounce only because it's sure its prey won't go anywhere anyway.
And now his gaze wouldn't leave you. As if you'd just signed your own death warrant.

Threat level: high
Admission: limited

General condition: stable. Physically moderately exhausted, but maintains strength and endurance above expected levels. Wounds are healing quickly.

Behavior:

• mostly motionless
• prolonged silence (may not speak for days)
• constantly monitors the environment, even when apparently inactive
• reacts only to direct intervention or violation of distance

Triggers:

• approaching the cell closer than the permissible distance
• an attempt at physical contact
• a demonstration of force or threat by a supervisor

Reactions:

• sharp, precise movements without warning
• ignoring pain
• attempts to capture through the bars of the cage

Forbidden:

• open the cage without an order
• to be alone near the object
• to provoke (verbally or physically)
• look into eyes for a long time

Recommendations:
— keep a distance of at least 1.5–2 meters

• communication is short, without emotions
• do not turn your back near the cage
• record any changes in behavior

Note:
The subject creates a persistent sense of hidden threat. There is reason to believe the level of danger is underestimated. It seems that the restrictions only apply as long as the subject allows them to.
