The glyphs you see on the BPF worker’s backs are condensed designations which represent their overall “batch number”. Before workers were hand-crafted, these did not exist. But since all workers are created here at the BPF, all workers are able to have this useful information stamped onto their bodies.
By referencing this “batch number”, it is possible to determine other useful stats about any given worker. These are, but not limited to:
Average life expectancy.
How many holes can be blown or (stabbed) into its body before it dies.
Likelihood of [REDACTED] happening from 3 [REDACTED] exposures.
Its specific number out of its overall “batch”.
The quality of the worker, as determined by the [REDACTED] system.
How often it must eat.
Aside from these stats, there are also several “batch quirks” associated with each batch of workers, which occurs from discrepancies in the procedures and conditions of their creation.
Listed below are a sample of “batch numbers”. Beside them, we will list a single “quirk” about each batch to give you an idea of what Supervisors can know, just from a single glance at this “batch number”.
： Workers of this batch are incapable of harming themselves.
： Workers of this batch cannot feel love.
： Workers of this batch will not stop themselves from burning alive.
： Workers of this batch cannot tell lies.
： Workers of this batch always experience nightmares when they sleep.
： Workers of this batch are unable to stop thinking about the eel.
： Workers of this batch won’t stop working until they’re told to stop.
： Workers of this batch cannot sleep no matter how tired they feel.
： Workers of this batch are in constant pain.
： Workers of this batch start to melt if exposed to too much noise.
： Workers of this batch sometimes experience vivid hallucinations.
