Some people call MC 001 “Chronos”. The chronophage god who killed and ate his own children. He was the representation of the letal and fatal time.
Nowadays, MC 001 is embodied as a clock. This dangerous clock is contained in the foundation since 35 years. If an unfortunate sees MC 001, he suddenly fall asleep in a eternal dream (or nigthmare?) and never wake up. As more, the needle ‘s sound are hypnotic and require the subject to watch MC 001.
Therefore, MC 001 is countained in a armored and opaque cell so that no one could see or hear him. MC 001 is just a B-MC because of his easy countainment.
