13HRP – 0018 – Mr Butter Worth


Description

Entity 13HRP – 0018 – Mr Butter Worth, called Mr Butter Worth, looks like a humanoid made from a butter-like substance. While it seems culinary in nature, the material breaks normal science: it does not melt under heat, it will not freeze solid under extreme cold, and it stays whole under crushing pressure. Microscopic checks show the butter forms simple versions of biological systems, such as muscle-like fibres, skin-like layers, and hardened fatty structures that act like bone. This body gives it movement and strength far greater than its form suggests. In addition, pieces cut away regrow within hours, showing that the entity keeps itself alive with a cycle of renewal scientists cannot copy.


Appearance and Accessories

Mr Butter Worth always shows himself with a monocle, top hat, and cane, each made of the same butter substance. The monocle bends light into spirals, disrupting cameras and making observers dizzy or sick. The top hat releases faint butter-scented mist, which clings to clothes and changes taste for hours. The cane drips golden butter drops that vanish into vapour before they hit the ground. No residue remains, yet scans show traces of thought-based signals in the mist, meaning the effect may reach the mind rather than the body. Witnesses say these tricks feel both funny and disturbing, making the entity seem like a looping act of decay, renewal, and theatre.


Social Interaction

Records show 13HRP – 0018 behaves with extreme courtesy. He greets people with bows, old-fashioned words, and overdone manners. These acts are not just habits: notes show he often corrects how others stand, speak, and move, demanding they follow his rules of politeness. Importantly, he only appears in dreams, especially those of people linked to 13HRP – 0047 – The Butter Cult. In these dreams, he acts as host, teacher, or recruiter, drawing people into rituals that mix manners with control. His focus on courtesy works both as display and discipline, slowly teaching people to accept the cult’s order through ritual politeness.


Dream Encounters and Rituals

Those who meet Mr Butter Worth in dreams often wake to find neatly wrapped sticks of butter by their bed. These sticks never spoil and cause cravings for more butter. At first, this looks harmless—linking food and manners—but with time, people start to see butter eating as proof of loyalty to the cult.

During dream interviews, Entity 0018 always serves butter at exactly 13 minutes past the hour, no matter the dream’s flow. When asked why, he replies: “Timeliness defines refinement.” This shows a clear link to the Butter Cult’s number rituals. If someone refuses the butter, his manner hardens, his gestures grow stiff, and his monocle’s light bends painfully. Experts think enough refusals could lead to violence, though no one has resisted that long. Because of this, following the ritual seems key to avoiding harm.


Extended Observations

People exposed to his dreams often hear sounds after waking: butter knives scraping on plates, whispers about courtesy, and tapping canes. Experts think these echoes act as anchors, pulling minds back toward the cult even outside of dreams. Dream-maps show he often appears in Edwardian parlours, tea rooms, and fancy salons. These rooms twist with butter designs—walls glowing with churned light, chandeliers dripping gold, and carpets woven from dairy threads. Each setting shows his role is not random but tied to places of ritual eating.


Cultural Variability

Reports show Mr Butter Worth shifts to fit local culture. People from Eastern backgrounds see him in a butter kimono with flowing sleeves. Western subjects see the top hat, cane, and monocle. Some Southern reports describe him as an elder on a throne of churns, giving butter with solemnity. This change supports the view that 0018 acts as a cultural mirror, changing form to gain trust and charm. By doing so, he hides control in the shape of familiarity.


Overall Assessment

The Zeldt Council lists Mr Butter Worth as a low-threat anomaly because he uses symbols more than open force. Still, experts warn against ignoring him. His repeated rituals, strict timing, and mental influence point to his role as an ambassador or recruiter for the Butter Cult. By wrapping control inside politeness and generosity, he slowly lowers resistance. His charm hides danger: he makes manners into weapons.


Containment Notes

Direct containment of Mr Butter Worth has failed. Current rules focus on dream interception, mental counter-training, and strict post-exposure checks. Staff who meet him more than once are tracked and tested long-term. Bans on dairy food aim to cut cravings linked to his influence. Butter samples taken from subjects last for exactly 13 hours before turning into nothing, limiting lab work. Attempts to extract or stabilise his mind-based signals always fail.


Addendum: Theoretical Implications

Experts debate what 13HRP – 0018 – Mr Butter Worth really is. One group says he is a mask for cult teaching, using manners to slip ideas into people’s minds. Another says he may not exist as a being at all but as a shared thought-image, created by belief and held alive in dreams. If true, Mr Butter Worth could fade if memory of him vanishes. Yet his steady form across cultures and his fixed focus on courtesy prove he matters. He may be a recruiter or just an idea made flesh, but in both cases he shows how refinement itself can turn into the most dangerous kind of control.
