Recommend Tier II classification with annual observational review. Note: subject exhibits emotional rigidity and obsessive behavior—flag for soft psychological monitoring."
Internal NEAA Footnote (Hidden from Public Record):
"Odd magical behavior patterns suggest possible containment or self-repression. Recommend deeper arcano-psychological scan if subject is ever detained or investigated. Possible unregistered potential."
