Aufhocker/Boilerman

The Boilerman is a manifestation created by accident when two halves of the same person were thrown together in a river of chemicals (mostly sulfur) when attempting a crossing between timelines at a high speed. I had the pleasure of viewing this event personally, and was able to capture it on video.

When the Boilerman catapulted to the IAEA, The Light was made to possess the body of the Boilerman, causing the birth of the Aufhocker. In life, the original person that formed the manifestation seemed to have had a very strong sense of moral code, seeping into the personalities of both the Boilerman and the Aufhocker. This makes the Aufhocker not only a very loyal and embracing member of its role in the IAEA, but also self professed to be brave.

It should also be noted that the Aufhocker shows an observable difference in intellect when compared to its other manifested counterparts. This heightened intellect combined with its sense of bravery when in the face of danger makes the Aufhocker a far more a different manifestation then both Shadowe and the Concave.

The Well
The Aufhocker is said to share the dimensional door with Shadowe. This can cause a delay when the two try to escape at once. In my experience, causing the two to fight for a time allows you to escape them if they are after you. This knowledge applies to anyone in the Southern Timeline.

Ability to Manifest from High Pressure, Heated Environments
The Boilerman was named as such for the common occurrence of it exploding out of steam boilers and attacking its victims. The Aufhocker has a similar ability, but instead uses metal from the explosion to form tendrils that drag its prey into the boiler (which, in turn, drags them into the light). What at once was assumed to be just boilers, turned out to be any high pressure, heated environment. This manifestation through excited particles can only be done in the North Timeline, and is the reason why electricity became so scarce.
