- Mr. Door said that there are many worlds. Some on top of one another, some side by side, and some inside one another. Dylan Faden had knowledge of the nature of his world. A game. That there was a world outside where we the player were playing his story. The barrier between fiction and reality are thinner than we realize.
It is well known that the Mail Tubes inside the Oldest House send mail to other realities. What if they ended up here in our world? The following files were discovered inside a familiar orange Tube at my local Credit Union. I'll be documenting the contents in this Archivist series.

I’m going with an Occam’s Razor explanation as to why it was left in the open. If contact with the object raises confidence it can be assumed Bless was overly confident that nobody would steal it and thus left it out. Prolonged use could easily raise confidence levels to an unhealthy degree, affecting rational judgement.
The blessed group seem to be operating on a bigger scale and seem to know what their dealing with too well not to have a contingency plan for every OoP they use but to be fair the same can be said about the bureau and agents get caught up in the effects of these things all the time sooo
One can only be so prepared when we know so little so I guess it's entirely possible
How would this account for the detail that everything else in the house was gone when the FBC arrived?
@@GenerallybreakPlease point out where it says that everything else was removed?
@@pinknolan From the Surfboard Procedures:
Agents raided Mr. Bless's Los Angeles home only to find the house empty and the man gone. Only the item remained in the house, in plain sight.
Possible motivations for "The Power of the Board":
1) Bless is working with the Board, and the speaking tour was to afford them more power by making them a bigger focus of collective psychic energy.
2) Bless is working against the Board, and trying to alter their nature by changing the public understanding of what "the Board" means.
3) Bless is working against the Board, and the surfboard is an attempt to siphon the Board's power. In the popular psyche "the Board" has strong connotations of power, but he's trying to redirect that energy from the archetype of the controllers of an organization into his surfboard, leaving the Board weaker.
Thank you for adding point #2. I'd like to append to that there's a good possibility that Chester Bless and The Former could be collaborating (Bless seems ambitious so I don't he'll allow the former to control him so collaboration feels the right word to describe this possible relationship) and working against the board, which might explain why he's immune to the Board's influence. need to study Dr. Ash's history with The Former more i think. and the board
I actually like the idea that this exercise was to draw attention from The Board. Only counterargument is the toes to Northmoor and how one of the Blessed Organizations items nearly allowed him to escape from the NSC. Considering how Northmoor is a devotee of The Board.
@@GamingUniversityUoG It's very possible the Blessed Organization is another puppet or cat's paw of the Board. Since it's becoming clear they can't control Jesse, they may seek to release Northmoor to have a Director they can fully control again.
I would note that Northmoor did voluntarily accept being put in the NSC;Trench was more distrusting of the Board, but also had psychological hooks that made him easy enough to control regardless. The Board accepted Jesse more or less out of necessity, but once the crisis is cleared they may be looking for a more suitable puppet.
@@naprox3n_offline and to my knowledge there's only 1 other person we know who has worked with the former and is enemy's with the board and they would have the knowledge of O.O.P and A.I while (to my knowledge) not being confirmed dead...
Theodore ash jr (i think that's there name) the head of research before darling (i think).
edit:i did not read all of the comment but while bless's organisation is most similer to scp's Anderson robotics or wondertainment the chaos insurgentce is widely agreed (to my knowledge) as being a black ops mtf before spiting of due to the influence of some higher power (i think that's why) and i think that's worth mentioning
@@GamingUniversityUoG i know this is unrelated but i just noticed that the board's symbol is an upside down triangle.
but the nail has a gap at the top that look's like an upside down triangle would fit in to make a full rectangle shape.
you may already have noticed it but i thought i might comment it anyways
I lean toward Bless intentionally "gave" the surfboard to the FBC, but it's hard to tell what he gains from this. The Jukebox and Movie Camera seems like more obvious Trojan Horses. One of my hopes for a Control sequel would be for the Blessed organization to get more focus and we could see what exactly they've been scheming.
Wouldn't surprise me at all. There is something going on here that we don't fully understand yet.
If the board increases confidence, than Bless had the longest exposure to it. By leaving it behind intentionaly, two possibilities present themselve:
1. The FBC is part of his ambitions. This is the most likely scenario.
2. He knows of the effects of the board and is somehow able to be immune to it. There are probably more ways to ward of paranormal effects than black rock. (What's the deal with black rock anyway?)
This goes under the supposition that this individual using the pseudonym of Chester Bless ever touched it in the first place.
@@GamingUniversityUoG That's fair. It's been a while since i read the files of control, so my memory is laking, but chester bless could just be a sort of john doe, an alias anyone of the bless organization could use.
Oh it absolutely is. This is just a random member of the Blessed Organization using a pseudonym
For me my first thought on why the board was left there was because the confidence boosting effect made the person think it would be fine to leave it there in the open. And as he is the owner of a self help organization he could have been out going for a jog or other such healthy activities.
I haven't seen anything to suggest this individual touched the Surfboard himself. It's possible of course but never stated outright
I’ve been playing control since a couple months after it’s released, and I recently got the DLC couple months ago and beat all of them. your videos are one of the reasons I read the lore and keep going back to play it again. Anyway I was able to get my mother to start playing the game a couple of days ago and so far she likes it. I think I’ll show her some of your videos so she can understand more about the lore.
That's really cool that you got her to pick up the game! Hope you both enjoy the play through
your mother sounds cool as hell! Glad you got her to pick up the game
@@yellowbat79 she’s not super far in, but she’s on main mission four Threshold and she’s done all of the side quest so far. She’s only gotten stuck once and I’ve had to help her, but besides that she’s done almost everything herself.

Shallow lore: Ian is distracted and complaining about the FBC
Deep lore: Dean is distracted and compalining about the patreon supporters.
Not sure if this series is that Meta. But then again these recordings were found in the real world sooo...
it's possible that the residents of the oldest house being perpetually reminded of "the power of the board" is what latched itself onto an object, and then the object was used by the blessed org to test the limits of the boards connection to AI's
once they had everything they need, they can pretend to get sloppy enough for the FBC to identify and track down the owner of the board.
I don't think it would just be the House. Work in most any big corporation, and eventually you'll see some choices that seem strange, and the only explanation is "the Board decided". Archetypally, "the board" as a sort of abstract ruling entity pervades the modern world.
@@Generallybreak the board might have been referred to as gods, or as king in previous mellenia, but uppon FBC discovery it took the monachre "the board" likely to be easier to accept by the FBC staff
Your videos are so unbelievably fantastic man. And this series rules
Thank you so much!
Surfing on that thing was a blast
Mr Bless! I need to get you for an interview
Great add threshold/dimension jumping to the list of charges.
By this point, the Archivist is just doing all of these to pass the time as he tries to find a way out of the area he's trapped in.
Poor dude dowsnt want to leave his room until the drop the building lockdown
@@GamingUniversityUoG Doesn't realize his room has been incapsulated by an anomaly and he will never leave. Sad.
BLESS 🙏
Memes aside, I don’t think Chester Bless makes mistakes or forgets things. A parting gift for the FBC.
My personal opinion too. Just need to keep it neutral
I also believe that the surfboard was left there intentionally. I don't think Mr. Bless would left such powerful item just because he was in a hurry. But still, why he wanted it to be found by the agents.
We see situations, pilenwith the Jukebox, where they intent the bureau to collect it. By letting f the bureau take that one, it facilitated Northmoor nearly breaking out of the NSC.
Maybe he was able to become one with the surfboard and kind of Trojan horses his way into the oldest house.
@@GamingUniversityUoGthat makes sense, I've actually had the theory a long time ago that certain items could have been used as a sort of prison break. Like someone manifested these items to use them on the oldest house to break out of it. (someone was/needed an item strong enough to move someone like noorthmore or just a cluster of individuals out of the house) An unsuccessful attempt but definitely probably the intended point.
This Mr. Bless could have snuck into the FBC and let loose a bunch of items in hopes of letting someone. In this case noorthmore. Out of the oldest house again. I could see the board wanted its favorite follower freed.
I don't think Bless getting spooked and running is plausible. The Surfboard Procedures indicates when the FBC raided, the house was entirely empty except for the surfboard. That means he had enough time to pack up and move everything he owned, leaving only his most valuable possession behind.
Good point. Just suggest they have a mole. Which goes along with another altered item coming up.
It wonder, does the Surfboard’s influence actually work? What I mean is, when the custodian was exposed to the Surfboard and gained Over-confidence, the custodian spoke of wanting to ‘become somebody’ and it makes be wonder, did the custodian actually become somebody, did the custodian actually accomplish what these goals? Or does the Surfboard merely fill you with over confidence?
I also wonder that since the Surfboard is an Altered Item, was it already an Altered Item before Chester Bless owned it? Or was it made into an Altered Item while Chester Bless was owning it?
I really love the lore in Control, it absolutely fascinates me, and I feel accomplished because I got all the documents yesterday! I cannot wait for the eventual sequel to come out and to see more of this interesting world.
Positive thinking can get you far.
And judging by the Jukebox, the Blessed organization seems to know how to create altered items, so I would lean toward them intentionally creating it.
With the Blessed Organization, it does make me wonder, how easy is it to make an Altered Item? If these people have the ability to intentionally create Altered Items, does that mean that anyone can create an Altered Item? Does it have anything to do with Parautilitarians, or can it be anyone? And if these people can create Altered Items, does that mean the Bureau knows how to create Altered Items?
This world is just so fascinating to learn about, and the more you dig into it, the more questions you come out with!
I'd recommend checking out by altered item video for more info on the process of how they wre created. At least my theory on it.
We have seen a. few times where we suspect artificial creation. Like the smoking pram, the jukebox, etc. We can suspect accidnetls ones like the rubber duck and the human hand chair.
@@GamingUniversityUoG This world is both confusing yet fascinating! The mention of the fact that the Jukebox is a possibly created O.O.P is so fascinating! I do wonder what the Blessed Organization end goal is, especially in relation with them illegally selling Altered Items. I do think that Chester Bless may have left the Surfboard on purpose because I don’t believe that Mr. Bless would unknowingly leave behind the Surfboard, especially since he had some knowledge on the Surfboard’s influence, and with his slight connection to the Blessed Organization, I find it hard to believe that Mr. Bless would leave it on ‘accident’, and while he may have panicked and abandoned it if he knew that the FBC was onto him, I just don’t think he would leave it behind without some motive behind it, but that’s just my theory.
Slightly off topic, but I do truly love your videos and how much research you pour into it and how passionate you are. This is a very underrated channel and you speak so eloquently. I’ve been subscribed for a few weeks, but every video that you makes just, oozes passion, and I can’t wait to explore more of this wacky, yet interesting world! Excellent video!
Those are actually good questions. It makes you wonder if the surfboard came to him or did he create it on his own.
If the surfboard came to him that kind of supplies evidence that the surfboard could be linked to the board or former and wanted to hypnotize the mass public for some major gain/reason. (That could be the reason why the former(s) is no longer apart of the board.)
But if Mr. Blessed created the surfboard then it sounds more like he had a personal goal intended when creating the altered item. And if he does technically have that knowledge to create altered items then what really stops him from making a bunch more and baiting the FBC.
Fascinating
Perhaps Bless left the surfboard filled Blessed with enough confidence to keep it prominently visible.
It's true, as much as I like Langston's character, he's definitely the person I believe is the mole in the FBC. Something about things he's said relates to things he shouldn't know about and all the documents related to him seem suspicious to me. Especially since he's the only agent I think that never gets an ending to his investigations. They all weirdly just closed or become discontinued.
I guess the Archivist is lucky the FBC security are a bit short on people these days, lol. Though, TBH, I doubt that the new Director, Jesse, would mind an investigation into the Bureau's past and its possible connection to the Blessed organization. She'd probably authorize the investigation herself.
But seriously, nice video!
Let's just say he accidentally helped and passed along a bit of detail related to Alan Wake. Got approval to go back through everything after that
The Bless Organization…several altered items known to have been in the possession of this organization made their way to the FBC under extremely “convenient” circumstances. The Surfboard was shown off in public across the country, even to the extent the FBC believed they knew the effect before they captured the item.
But what if confidence boosting is not the ONLY effect of the item? I view any altered item as a ticking time bomb, but ones acquired from the Bless Organization doubly so.
I agree, I don't think that it was just giving out confidence. Especially if the archivists is correct, and there is an apparent link to the board through this surfboard. To an extent the surfboard sounds like it was in the middle of a cult, sending out a message to the public. Probably to overthrow or riot the FBC and free their favorite follower, noorthmore. Maybe.
The surfboard in my opinion sounds more like hypnotism.
Getting to the Altered Items with an interesting history to them are we?
Oh season 2 may see quite a few of these ones
Hubris, all too Human.
Power corrupts and all that
For us survivors of the Investigations Sector, those chumps are quite an annoying topic. Progress on that front was slow even before the Hartman incident...
My two cents on why Bless left the surfboard behind is that it wasn't worth keeping. For an altered item, that thing is pretty useless and the self-help gig would've been hard to continue after it drew the FBC's attention. Given it's "containment" is just keeping it from getting stolen, methinks we're just wasting a panopticon cell on that surfboard.
As for any potential connection with our triangular nuisance: I find it unlikely due to it not being an OoP, but I wouldn't dismiss it as impossible. There is much we don't know about them...
I'm still thinking our overlor... I mean charitable shepherds can force links onto altered items and make then into OoPs.
@@GamingUniversityUoG I think so too, but there must be limits to what they are capable or willing to link.
(seems like every linked OoP is a potential means to breach the Astral Plane, if the Hiss' behavior is anything to go by)
This whole situation seems to me like chester/the blessed organization was trying to fuck with the fbc and the board by openly mocking the relationship between them. You have tour attendees/the fbc following and listening to chester bless/the board via the "power of the board" unaware of their true nature or intentions.
This could also suggest that the Blessed organization have the knowledge and resources to either siphon power/resources from the board, or how to create their own in similar fashion to how the board does
The board did what it could to hide the board from the fbc as a demonstration that the fbc cannot control the board since they had full control over the board
Cool video
Thanks dude
You raid the house of a guy you’re after, find out it’s empty except a surfboard and then decide to take said surfboard? What could go wrong?🤷♂️
Not the brightest are they
@@GamingUniversityUoG I’m sure Jesse will straighten it up.
It’s exactly that it was the ONLY decision the FBC would make in this situation that makes it such a good trap. The FBC is extremely averse to ANY known AI or OOP remaining outside their direct control. It would be organizationally unthinkable for them to NOT take the Surfboard once it was presented to them.
For hypothesis 2: its so that they don’t keep looking, they already “caught the killer” case closed right?
👏👏👏👏👍
You're awesome thank you!
@Archivist are under the influence of any Altered Item. You seem to be eerily sleepy. #Supposition
It's also early in the morning and he got a job to do lol
He's an eeby boy who neeby to sleeby
