Entity Number: #
Habitat(s): Dark.
Description:
Lighthouses are humanoid figures with a giant light source on their head. The brightness of the light source is very high, approximately 100 million candela, but the light it gives off is only nine candela. Sunglasses of any caliber do not work. At all.
Behaviors:
Lighthouses wander around the level they reside in aimlessly. They become aggressive and give chase to wanderers that fall into their light. It should be noted that their line of sight appears to only be what their light illuminates, but it is still unrecommended to be in front of one, regardless of whether you are in the light or not. Running in a different direction if you are with someone seems to confuse a Lighthouse. It should be noted that Lighthouses also target other Entities. The main food source of Lighthouses are unknown. Autopsies of wanderers that fell victim to Lighthouses reveal punctured eyes, but no parts are missing.
Biology:
The most defining feature of a Lighthouse is the giant, bulbous light on their head. Although it has no distinct shape, the light it gives off resembles a flashlight. Lighthouses also have grey skin with an appearance similar to concrete, but it looks to be very soft with nothing underneath. This makes bullets very effective. However, this also makes them very fast, since they have almost no known body weight to carry. The highest speed ever recorded is about forty-three miles an hour, but the average one only runs at twenty.
Discovery:
Lighthouses were initially discovered in the pits of Level 8. All but one wanderers who saw it immediately got blinded, and subsequently killed. The remaining one wanderer was farther back from the group, giving her a warning to shield her eyes before running. She reported that the "being," now known as a Lighthouse, had chased her for a bit before turning around to hunt the others. However, this contradicts the filed behaviors of a Lighthouse now as she claims that it chased her before it saw her, but MEG has not dismissed it yet.
Additional Information:
Camera's and visual recording devices of any kind will immediately break if it views the light of Lighthouse.
