 The alarm slash alert for Roblox incidents and cataclysms, Alaric, was an automated emergency response system meant to minimize the damage of major hackings and anomalous events to its users' games and accounts. Developed in late 2012, it was conceived as a way to mitigate the damage of future attacks, similar to the April Fools incident to Roblox users. Roblox would automatically respond to events in varying ways depending on the situation or class of event it encountered, making it a formidable security system. After the April Fools 2012 incident, a wave of mass panic hit the Roblox community, impacting everyone from clan owners and developers. Items were changed, accounts were unbanned, and insanity reigned across the site on that day in Spring 2012. It seemed nowhere was safe, and if Roblox could get hacked once, what could stop someone like 1x1x1x1 from causing mass chaos in the future? In most players' minds, there was no answer to this question. There were not many safeguards people could use, two-step verification and account pins were not yet implemented, and filtering enabled wasn't heard of. So, what could the users of Roblox do? It was around this time that an anonymous group of developers began work on a counter-exploit system, meant to warn and or prevent these events from happening. The system would use multiple mines of countermeasures to destroy enemy exploits and attacks, as well as an inbuilt notifications system for real-time attack and emergency notices. This system, soon known as Aleric, would be released to the public during late 2012, with a price of about 250,000 tickets. Several large groups and clans would buy the system, them being basically the only ones that could afford it, seeing deployment in multiple group games and bases. Aleric would repulse several events, using its event classification system to determine the seriousness of the threats, and going into 2013, the system was extremely prevalent within the infrastructure of about any major clan. Despite this, public knowledge of the system was practically nonexistent. The system was extremely powerful, and if it fell into public hands, major disaster could occur on the Roblox website. For obvious reasons, no owner of the system wanted this to happen, and so knowledge of it was kept without most secrecy. In July of 2013, an exploiter accidentally triggered a portion of Aleric's emergency broadcast system, resulting in limited broadcasts of AZ-class event alerts message. After inquiring on the forums, the discussion seemingly ended. After this date, it seems as if no new user sightings have been leaked outside of private discussion, seemingly due to larger efforts to conceal the program in response to the aforementioned incident. As of 2023, all current operators and users of the Aleric system are unknown. Although information is scarce and somewhat dubious, it is believed that the Aleric system was the most powerful exploit-slash-tool of Roblox's history, having the ability to defend games from exploits with a large amount of unique techniques. Aleric may use undiscovered vulnerabilities within the Roblox software in order to execute its duties, including ones still unknown to this day. Furthermore, it is also believed that Aleric could modify nearly every aspect of a Roblox game where it was being used. As well as its expensive emergency alert and antivirus and exploit system, it is believed that Aleric could act as an offensive weapon. There are some rumors about how the tool was used in such a manner, although these cannot be confirmed. Early warning system and event class types. A class, the most common type of event class, triggered in response to normal exploits and script injections. D class, triggered in response to moderation action against a user's property. D class, unknown. X class, triggered in response to major change and or damage to Roblox war to occur. X class events were likely triggered during the tick's removal and 2013 price floor update. Z class, Aleric would trigger a Z class event alarm if extreme damage to Roblox war to occur. Update, October 7th, 2020. On October 4th, 2020, portions of an Aleric unit's system logs were recovered. Within the aforementioned execs, the unit's security system appears to detect a class Z major anomalous event, making it the only evidence of ever such an event being detected. Said event appears to have caused universal effect to the Roblox platform, and possibly more. Interestingly, there are no confirmed records of any anomalous events happening on October 26th, 2015.
