SCP-3759	euclid	An SCP-3759 instance. Item #: SCP-3759 Special Containment Procedures: GPS trackers are to be maintained on the landmass occupied by SCP-3759. Standard disinformation, ship and aircraft redirection, and satellite imagery doctoring protocols apply. Description: SCP-3759 denotes a group of several thousand intangible Abingdon Island giant tortoises (Chelonoidis abingdonii) residing on a variable landmass currently 380 km west of the Ecuador coast. SCP-3759 instances transmute any surface they step on into volcanic rock, up to a maximum radius of 5.8 m. Geological analysis of this rock indicates composition consistent with that of the Galapagos Islands. Rock produced by SCP-3759 instances is the only known material they cannot phase through. The amount of surface the SCP-3759 population can transmute at once has an upper limit of approximately 1.4 km2; at this point any further transmutation causes an equal amount of previously transmuted rock to convert into seawater. Freshwater pools and vegetation native to the Galapagos spontaneously appear near the center of the landmass at consistent intervals. Addendum: On the morning of 6/24/2012, "Lonesome George", the last non-anomalous Abingdon Island tortoise, died. The population of SCP-3759 organized into a circular arrangement, and in the center of the circle, a new instance of SCP-3759 manifested. This is the only time the creation of a new instance has been recorded.

Item #: SCP-3760 Special Containment Procedures: Subliminal Memetic Agent Kappa/Omicron ("SMA-K/O") is to remain in global circulation, propagated via a fabricated "scientific fact" that acts as a carrier. The Department of Misinformation is to suppress any notion that SMA-K/O's carrier may be untrue. If an individual ceases to believe that the carrier information is factual, they will lose the effects of SMA-K/O and become susceptible to SCP-3760's anomalous properties. To prevent a potential End-of-World K/O Failure Scenario, all records regarding the nature of SMA-K/O's carrier have been restricted to Level 5 access. Description: SCP-3760 is an anomalous mutagenic phenomenon which affects the regrowth of human tissue in response to injury. Humans within proximity of a subject afflicted with SCP-3760 run an ongoing risk of infection; however, SCP-3760 does not appear to be microbial in nature. Due to the circumstances of its containment, the vector for transmission of SCP-3760 has yet to be conclusively determined.1 Injured2 tissue in affected subjects will anomalously develop various forms of nonhuman biological features associated with members of the clade Selachimorpha. Such features most commonly include (but are not limited to): Dermal denticles3 Benign cartilaginous growths Eyes (with nictitating membranes)4 Nasal ducts Teeth and/or jaws Sensory organs grown by affected subjects appear to be functional and respond appropriately to stimuli, but these sensations are not directly experienced by the subject themselves. Other organs demonstrate similar independent functionality, including mandibles capable of mastication. Involuntary self-injury from bites are frequent. Any matter consumed by an SCP-3760-grown oral cavity will vanish despite a lack of observable connection to a digestive tract. These aforementioned orifices will repeatedly seek edible material for consumption;5 this behavior intensifies in the presence of blood, and may even include acts of autocannibalism. A failure to consume edible material at regular intervals will result in necrosis of the affected tissue. In turn, this necessitates the removal of the necrotic tissue, which consequently leads to the emergence of additional SCP-3760 mutations and orifices. Precise epidemiological statistics regarding the spread of SCP-3760 are currently impossible to ascertain. Estimates by Foundation researchers have placed the saturation rate of SCP-3760 to be between 71% and 92% of the global populace. SMA-K/O has proven capable of suppressing symptoms in most affected subjects, with only 2,785 recorded cases of SCP-3760 activity observed between 1958 and 2016. Addendum: The following is a series of journal entries made by Dr. Keith Woodward, Ship's Medical Officer aboard the USS Kirby. His patients are believed to have been the first victims of SCP-3760. August 5th 1922 Goodness knows I'm the worst at keeping records, but this feels important. Every instinct inside me says that something is very wrong. I have to write this all down while it's still fresh. Nobody knows how Willis Riggs ended up in the water, least of all Riggs himself. Several men saw him heading below deck at 1521. At 1522, we had reports of a man overboard. It was Riggs. Nobody saw it happen. When they pulled him aboard, he said he couldn't remember anything that had happened since breakfast. He was also missing a good chunk of his left foot. They asked me to examine him, of course. Sewed up his foot, put a cast on it, and then tried to figure out why he couldn't remember anything. Concussion was my first guess. But besides the lost time, there didn't seem to be anything wrong with him. I told him to get some bedrest, and when he was gone I called the higher-ups. Only explanation I could come up with was that he had simply stumbled overboard. It was possible he had gotten ahold of a drink, though he didn't look intoxicated. It was a strange case. Folks talked about it for a couple of days, but I didn't think too much of it. I had seen worse. Things happen. However, things kept happening. All sorts of accidents here and there. I didn't find out about most of it till later on. These aren't the type of men to go crying to the doctor for any little thing. Worst case I had after the Riggs incident was some foolhardy kid with a black eye. About a week after he had gotten his foot manged, Riggs came stammering back into my office. He said he hadn't been able to get any sleep the past few nights because of a noise. I told him that he ought to be used to putting up with noise at nights on a ship like this. He said it wasn't the loudness that kept him up, but where it was coming from. Then he propped his foot on my desk and asked me to listen to his cast. I gave him some pills and kicked him out. Figured his concussion was finally showing itself. And then, just last night, they dragged Riggs into my office again. He was screaming so loud you'd think he was on fire. They had to hold him down while I cut off the cast. I expected gangrene. Over two decades, I've seen some serious cases — smelled them, too. But the miasma from inside that cast was the worst damn thing I've ever smelled in my life. It was like someone shit in a dead fish and left it in the hot summer sun for a week. The flesh around his foot was all kinds of black and green and maroon. There were these sharp, tooth-like protrusions sticking out of the skin where I'd sewn him up. They'd chewed through the sutures in several places, leaving open gaps that exposed more rows of smaller, sharper teeth inside. I told Riggs and the others that his foot had gotten infected. Had to scrap the whole thing up to the knee. Ever since the op, I can't sleep. It's been affecting my work, my judgment, even my eyesight. I've had this dark spot at the edge of my vision that keeps coming and going. Probably just need to stop writing and go to sleep. August 8th 1922 They brought the kid with the black eye in again today. His right eyelid was swollen shut; blood trickled from it like a leaky faucet. I had to use pincers to peel the lid back. Wasn't just the swelling that kept it shut. It was those little teeth again. They'd grown into the back of the lid and bit in. He started making jokes about his eyepatch the moment I sent him on his way. Speaking of eyes, my sight has gotten worse. The dark spot's moved to the center of my vision and won't go away. Even when my eyes are closed, the colors don't dance in that one tiny spot. Is it possible the smell of Riggs' foot somehow burned my corneas? One of the men who'd helped bring him in—Ronnie Gaines, I think—said he'd been having headaches ever since that night. Wouldn't be surprised if whatever the hell Riggs has is toxic. August 9th 1922 I had three more men in today. No teeth this time, though. One of them had this rash going up his back that he said itched like crazy. It looked like acne at first, and he did have some acne back there, but there were all these bumps, all in neat little rows, all tender to the touch. I gave him some ointment. One of them had a growth on his big toe. Big chunk of something sticking out of the space on the left side where the nail ended. Looked almost like coral, except it was translucent and slightly rubbery. I cut it off. One of them had an earache. I looked inside and saw something look back at me. I told him it was his imagination. The dark spot on my vision keeps getting bigger. It's not even a spot anymore. Its shape keeps changing. Wish we had an optometrist. August 11th 1922 I told the higher-ups. They thought I was crazy. I wouldn't shut up about it, though, so they locked me up. Rigg's leg tore a man's throat out today. So they let me go. August 18th 1922 I have a little plate in front of me with bits of meat on it. Every few minutes I hold a piece up to my left ring finger. The nail slides up and it bares its teeth. I push the meat in and get back to taking care of the men. This is how things are now. The higher-ups told me to reassure the crew that we're going home. They don't want any more men jumping into the ocean. Risks spreading the disease, they said. I followed orders. But I also mentioned that if they felt like jumping, come see me first. August 22nd 1922 Ronnie Gaines died this morning. There's a hole full of teeth where his face should be. He'd been complaining of migraines for weeks. I figured something was growing in that head of his. I just didn't think it could bite from the inside. The curious part is that the teeth are still gnashing. Guess it makes sense. Riggs didn't die when his foot died. Why should the foot die if Riggs died? August 23rd 1922 Riggs died August 29th 1922 What else is there to say? I don't understand it. I can't heal it. I've already described it. No point in writing now. I have mouths to feed September 5th 1922 I can see it more clearly now. Still can't quite make out its features, even though it's all I can see. It looks like a person. It wasn't getting bigger. It's swimming towards me Footnotes 1. One widely-held hypothesis proposed in 1922 suggests that SCP-3760 may be spread through eye contact. 2. Diseased tissue has been observed to be affected in some cases. 3. Scales which are structurally comparable to pointed teeth. 4. A translucent eyelid that moistens the eye while retaining vision. 5.

SCP-3761	keter	NOTICE FROM THE RECORDS AND INFORMATION SECURITY ADMINISTRATION This file describes an anomaly set on a future date. Information was gained from anomalous phenomena. The decision to document a future anomaly was approved unanimously by HMCL Administration. Personnel are authorized to be cautious when activating Operation Kasum, as the true properties of SCP-3761 are uncertain. Secure. Contain. Protect. - Jane Erwin, RAISA Site-119, the main area for the creation of Sciuridae specimens. Item #: SCP-3761 Special Containment Procedures: As of 09/5/1986, Operation Kasum has been enacted by order of O5-8 and will be ongoing until 07/30/2063. Operation Kasum consists of the following procedures: 24 hours before SCP-3761 occurs, Butler County, Kansas, USA shall be deemed a no-fly zone, and all civilian access is to be denied. Civilians already present within the county are to be transported to Sedgewick County under the cover story of a natural disaster. Over the course of 50 years, 125,000,000 lab-grown Sciuridae specimens that are less intelligent than SCP-3761-A are to be created. These specimens are being created at over 200 Sites/Areas1, each using anomalous biotechnology to produce the specimens. Upon the appearance of SCP-3761, all of the specimens are to be released into the public for the purpose of spreading across the Earth according to plans present within Document 179-M, which should replace most of the squirrels that would participate and be killed in SCP-3761. Each specimen is to be placed within a Sciuridae Containment and Protection Facility (SCaPF). Each SCaPF is capable of holding 2 million squirrels indefinitely, and 30 million temporarily. Every squirrel has had Formula Class-877 Mass-Reproduction Aerosol Recipe applied to them, which causes constant fertilization of females, and would allow each specimen to gestate 6-10 offspring at once. Large amounts of squirrels are to be relocated to another SCaPF unit if the current one is full. The existence of SCP-3761-A's true intelligence is to be slowly introduced into the public under the guise of scientific discoveries over the course of 50 years. The stereotype that squirrels are unintelligent is to be replaced with the stereotype that squirrels are as intelligent as humans in modern culture. This will be done by inserting squirrel characters into popular television programs/movies/books that are seen as extremely smart. More information can be found within Document 818-Y. Mobile Task Force Tau-63 ("Vermin Supreme") is to collect any carvings within trees created by squirrels and prevent any from reaching the public, and are to transport them to Site-119 for research. Amnestics are to be administered to any civilians found to have knowledge regarding SCP-3761 and/or carvings created by SCP-3761-A. Extensive containment procedures are not currently necessary for SCP-3761-1, as they are currently allies with the Foundation and have agreed to not expose themselves to the public. However, SCP-3761-1 are to be monitored at all times, and are to be deterred from Kansas by any means necessary during SCP-3761. All squirrel based anomalies currently under Foundation control are to be heavily monitored and are to undergo revised containment procedures during SCP-3761. Personnel assigned to squirrel based anomalies are to view Document 226-U for more information. Site-119 has been created in Butler County, Kansas as an area for Foundation personnel to observe SCP-3761 when it occurs and for the creation of squirrel specimens. A site dossier has been sent to personnel with 2/3761 clearance by request of the Site Director of Site-119. After Incident-2A7, Site-119 and Site-551 Administration have unanimously voted for the secondary use of Site-551 as a research facility for anomalous entities/phenomena that are suspected to be connected to SCP-3761. Personnel with 3/3761 clearance are required to view the Site-551 Dossier for more information. Description: SCP-3761 is the designation for an anomalous event that will occur on 07/23/2063, which is currently theorized to be the date of an event affecting all species of Sciuridae (squirrels). SCP-3761's existence has been identified by prediction based anomalies as well as multiple texts of varying origins that show similar outcomes on the aforementioned date. It is currently theorized that during SCP-3761, every squirrel on Earth will dig a hole approximately .5 meters underneath their current location, in which a space-time anomaly will manifest, transporting each squirrel to .5 meters directly underneath Butler County, Kansas, USA. The squirrels will dig out of their holes, and will attack one another in an unknown manner (see SCP-3761 Documentation 3761-2). SCP-3761 will end on 07/24/2063, whereby all surviving squirrels will utilize the stated space-time anomaly to return to their original locations, and will refill the holes with dirt once they have successfully transported back. SCP-3761-A is the collective designation for all squirrels on Earth. It has been observed that SCP-3761-A ranks approximately an 8.9-9.1 on the FAITH scale.2 SCP-3761-A as a whole are capable of learning human languages and can communicate by carving into the bark of trees. However, squirrels have never attempted to communicate with humans, and all attempts at an interview with a squirrel have been met with failure. In extremely rare cases, it has been observed that SCP-3761-A instances are capable of verbal communication (see SCP-3761 Documentation 3761-3). SCP-3761-1 designates a religious group, colloquially known as the "Church of Patteeism", that practices the belief of squirrel and human equality. Members of the group include individuals of varying ethnic background and age groups. Most of SCP-3761-1's members live within an area in █████, India that it has dubbed "The Secluded Oak." Further information regarding this location is unavailable to the Foundation.3 The current leader of SCP-3761-1 is Grand Prophet Timothy Lockridge. A reproduction of Hand of the Trees in Greek. SCP-3761-1 has been observed performing rituals to appease their deity, which is referred to as "पेड़ प्राणी", or "Tree Critter". The nature of said rituals vary greatly, and have been observed to have included praying, preparation of food, the burning of wood sculptures in the shape of a falcon, and simple chanting. A mantra is used during these rituals, and is regarded as a vital part of it. The following is an English version of the mantra confiscated from an SCP-3761-1 outpost: We were once with the Trees, Rolling plains as far as the eye can see. Out of the tree we went, walking with the Grass Sea, Out of the caring leaves that made us Free, Our ancestors saw what their brethren would be, And would watch over us in the Canopy, Tree Critter ditto shows pity, He raises His hand and shows our only Quality, His light guiding us to Equality, Where we once more can be with the Trees. According to confiscated text "Hand of the Trees"4, Tree Critter has the body structure of a human, and the head of a squirrel. Tree Critter is said to wear only a red and white striped robe with a hood that covers their eyes, and is noted to always carry a large unidentified scroll.5 According to Hand of the Trees, Tree Critter is capable of taking the form of anything it desires, but it chooses the previously aforementioned form when communicating with SCP-3761-1. SCP-3761-1 has stated on multiple occasions that it will attempt to assist in SCP-3761, however it is currently unknown how they will accomplish this. Addendum-A: Abridged list of anomalies used to verify SCP-3761's existence: Anomaly Method of Prediction SCP-1032 SCP-1032 displays a hand that reads "The War of the Squirrels" which will reach its midnight event on 07/24/2063, suggesting that SCP-3761 will only last 24 hours. SCP-187 SCP-187 states that she feels extremely uncomfortable and upset whenever she is within Butler County, Kansas. She states that the entire area is filled with holes that have squirrel carcasses within them. SCP-411 SCP-411 has, on multiple occasions, said that it "remembers" the "The Battle of the Tree Rats" occurring on 07/23/2063 in "The Breadbasket of America." SCP-411 has stated that it does not wish to grant any more information than this. SCP-2327 After SCP-2327 specimens leave instances of SCP-2327-1, a message is almost always found within the subjects' stomach lining, most likely written with their claws before attempting to escape. An autopsy of an SCP-2327-1 instance reveals that it reads "Remmember warr [sic]". SCP-2050 SCP-2050 regards SCP-3761 as a extremely important event to them, and states that it would rival the "Crusades of the Woodchucks". It is unknown what this refers to. Additionally, SCP-2050 believes that Kansas is actually the Middle East country of Palestine. SCP-2003 Determinate Set XL continues normally in a manner similar to XN until 07/23/2063 where all species of Sciuridae go completely extinct from an unknown virus that spreads only through squirrel species. The virus is regarded as "The TAKE CARE Virus" by local scientific groups for unknown reasons. SCP-2707 [DATA EXPUNGED]. If SCP-2707 is to live beyond its suspected natural life-span, SCP-2707 is to be decommissioned on 07/22/2063. Failure to do so will result in a CK-Class Dominance Shift scenario. Addendum-B: LEVEL 3 CLEARANCE REQUIRED TO ACCESS THE FOLLOWING FILES SCP-3761 DOCUMENTATION-1 SECURITY MEMETIC: Ish'nu-alah, Tree Critter, nuberal'He HAND OF THE TREES The following are excerpts from Hand of the Trees, SCP-3761-1's religious text6. The text is written entirely in Hindi, and has been translated to English. A sapling grew from the Rocky Grounds below, birthing bountiful fruit. From the fruits came a great Being, Tree Critter. Tree Critter tasted the fruit, and thought it plentiful. From the fruit, Tree Critter created other great Beings, the Wild Gods. Attuned to the nature around them, Wild Gods were in harmony with their surroundings. Wub're, The Frog God, ruled the shallow lakes and ponds. Psaw, The Flower Mistress, ruled over the Flowers and the Bees. Coy'te, The Joker, ruled over the Wolves and the Predators. Kaamu, the Healer, ruled over the great Stallions of The Breadlands. And of course, Tree Critter ruled over the Squirrels that populated the land. - Paragraph 2. Mess'r, The Tinker, was the last to Rise with Tree Critter. Mess'r asked Tree Critter with a Voice: "Oh great Critter, what may I rule over?" Tree Critter responded, "You will rule over the Rulers, you will watch over the Watchers, you are the God of Gods." Mess'r walked the Rocky Grounds with two legs, using their front hands to carry the World. On his left shoulder the Values, and on his right shoulder the Tree for which new fruit shall be grown. And with Mess'r's intellect birthed all of Creation and Complexity, both flesh and metal and the inbetween. And it was glorious. -Paragraph 5. Mess'r did bear children, and those children did bear children, and with that created Humanity and all of its followers. Mess'r's legacy lived on in their offspring. With the new found Humanity, they built a world where Mess'r's legacy would rule over the Wild Gods and their offspring. Mess'r said to Tree Critter: "Oh great Critter, I have ruled over the Rulers, I have watched over the Watchers, I have become the God of Gods, what else is there for me in this world?" Tree Critter responded: "Your job here is done, Tinker. May you rest in peace, and let Humanity shape this world for the better." Mess'r smiled, as they slowly sank into the Rocky Grounds. From their grave, came a new tree, bearing new fruit. -Paragraph 13 A man of noble heart walked the Rocky Grounds, in search for food for his family. That man was The Caretaker, one that studied the ways of Tree Critter, Humanity, and Squirrelkind. The Caretaker walked into the Great Tree, and into the bakery. The Baker said: "Caretaker, Son of Tree Critter, I am blessed that you have arrived in our great city." The Caretaker responded: "I am only here for a simple request. My family is starving, and I require bread to sustain them." The Caretaker took the offered bread. -Paragraph 179 The Caretaker heard a crunch underneath his foot, for he looked down and saw a dead squirrel underneath. The Great Tree witnessed the forfeit of the life of one of their own. Many gasped, many screamed, all of them scared. The blood seeped into the ground, and birthed a new tree, with withered bark and grey fruit, siphoning all hope and sanctuary from the land, known to many as the "Heart of Corruption." A holy flash appeared to The Caretaker, and a familiar voice introduced themselves. "Oh, Great Caretaker, you have violated the laws of the Forest. A life was snuffed out by your careless eye, and allowed entry into Narak from the Heart of Corruption. Leave, or face my relentless punishment." The Caretaker pleaded, stating that this wasn't of malicious drive, of how he values the life of squirrels and the world's sanctity very much. -Paragraph 180 "I am deeply sorry, Tree Critter, but I cannot leave, my family will starve if I do not get food for them! I shall cut down the Heart of Corruption and cleanse myself of malice." Tree Critter shed a tear, and trapped The Caretaker in a prison of light. "I am deeply sorry as well, Caretaker." Tree Critter summoned Kara, The Eternal Spear, and prepared to banish The Caretaker to the depths of Narak. Tree Critter lowered his hand, snuffed the Heart of Corruption, and began to rise into the air. "I have more important matters to attend to. If you truly care for the Forest, you will leave it." The Caretaker left the Great Tree, never to return. -Paragraph 181 Many of Squirrelkind despised The Caretaker. "His carelessness has cost us the life of one held dear, and stained The Great Tree. If Tree Critter shall not punish them, we will." Others forgave The Caretaker for his actions. "It was a pure accident, The Caretaker is a Man noble at heart, friend of Nature and Squirrelkind, the Heart of Corruption was not his corruption." The Squirrels that despised The Caretaker planned a punishment of the highest order: the defilement of their homeland, just like he did to theirs. Whether alive or dead, The Caretaker's legacy will be tarnished for all eternity. Time will be needed to prepare, many hundreds of years will be spent preparing to tarnish The Breadlands. -Paragraph 183 The Squirrels who forgave The Caretaker heard of this plan, and would intercept their attack on The Breadlands on the day of the attack. Soon, the Squirrels who despised The Caretaker learned of this, and it would be agreed that a great Battle would be held on the grounds of The Caretaker's homeland. And by decision of Squirrelkind, it would be called "Nubelere de Hoyo", or in Humanity's tongue "The War of The Squirrels," and it would be glorious. -Paragraph 184 SCP-3761 DOCUMENTATION-2 SECURITY MEMETIC: Ala'Bore Ratatoskr, Natala Tree Critter RECOVERED CARVINGS FROM SCP-3761-A On ██/██/████, MTF Tau-63 encountered engravings inside of 2 separate dead trees in ████████, Kenya which were written in Swahili, and are theorized to be related to SCP-3761-A. They have been transcribed here after translation to English. Dear Grand Leader Lor-Thormar It happened again. More friendly squirrels get taken by evil squirrels for testing. Bad testing. I don't know much, but tests kill squirrels from what heard. More humans from the Squirrel Superiority group also came along and told us of situation. They worried. They also tell me thing I do not know: There are two groups of squirrel humans: Proto and Neo. Protos love Caretaker, and Neos hate Caretaker. Told us they were Proto, and I let them in. They told us that they loved Caretaker just as much as us. Probably more in fact. They however told me very confusing sentence: Caretaker is already dead. No he not? Caretaker is alive, alive as ever. Which is good thing. Also told us of "Kansas". I corrected them and said "Breadlands", since that's actual name. Kansas sounds like silly name. What was I saying? Oh yes. They are taking more and more of our kind every day. It making other squirrels morale low. Very low, can confirm. This is proposal for development of weaponry like ones humans make. Weaponry that doesn't kill, but stops. Would help in War greatly. Neo squirrels use cruel weapons. Nothing but shadows and misery are left when they attack. Cruel bombs, cruel blades, cruel seeds. While many want to kill them, they are still our brothers, and we should never harm brothers, no matter how twisted. Thus why make stopping weaponry, not kill. Got off topic again. Point is we need to break in their Tree and get back our stolen squirrel brothers. Love live the Caretaker. Ankala-Koresh Daleem -General Rommoth-Balash War in ██ years. We are not ready. Must prepare. Learned lot from humans. Human weapons strong. Imitation done. Following are prototypes for weapons made for Squirrel-Kind. Death to the Caretaker. Nut-Pelter: Small metal thing with long tube on one end. Tube shoots out nuts, includes acorns, walnuts, pistachios, and cashews. Capable of entering squirrel skin and killing. Each soldier gets one. Life-Grower: Not weapon; trained technique by Squad Number Apple. Squirrels shoot special magic seeds out of mouth, pierces skin. Tiny trees grow inside of bodies. Roots enter ground and entangle nearby squirrels. Very useful. Bite-and-Choke-Gas: Small objects shaped like tasty acorns. Filled with deadly gas. Cracking nut causes gas to cover area. Gas causes breathing tubes esophagus breathing area to grow lumpy. Lumps actually other Gas filled acorns. Area becomes deep red and yellow mist after 10 minutes. Human-Smarties: Tablet candies eaten by humans for fun. Eating candies causes squirrel to gain human smarts. Humans smarts causes squirrels to have human emotion, which causes less will to fight. Easily capable of hiding in food. Ear-Ringers: Round shaped black ball. Not squirrel made; human made. When button is pushed, loud beeps heard. Big boom at black ball. Capable of killing many squirrels per black ball. Ringing in ears afterwards. Sky-Eyes: Also not weapon; Squad Number Grass composed of Flying Squirrels. Not really Flying; more like gliding. Can throw nuts and other weapons at squirrels from sky. Super useful. Plant Redwood Tree for major Flying. Tree-Critter-Bomb: If failing, detonate. Leave nothing but scorched earth and a tower of ash for the Caretaker. Update: More prototypes for weapons developing. Machines almost ready. Nut-Pelters successfully kill enemy squirrel. Very good test. Other hostages not freed. Need more. Until next time. Ankala-Koresh Enkilish SCP-3761 DOCUMENTATION-3 SECURITY MEMETIC: Bal'adash, Malanore Tree Critter INCIDENT-2A7 On 07/23/2013, an anomalous entity manifested within ██████████, India, which was ██ kilometers from Site-551. The entity had the facial structure of a squirrel, along with red-white striped robes. A small group of approximately 2,000 squirrels used a space-time anomaly to travel to the entity's location7. Foundation forces present at Site-551 were deployed to administer amnestics to witnesses of the event. The entity began to speak to the squirrels in English once the entire population was near its vicinity. Entity: Children, I am disappointed. When I was a boy and I heard about what war was, I would ask my grandma about it, and do you know what they said? They said that it achieves nothing but useless despair. Entity: Yes, I was impatient in my decision to punish the Caretaker. Yes, I was a child at that point, and had only just been granted power eternal, but he has since passed away, and my children are still planning this insidious war. He has long since been forgiven for his mistake. He was a kind, happy soul who did not mean harm. Entity: This is the last time I will come down to Earth and talk with you. I do not wish for you to carry out this war within the Breadlands, I do not wish for you to exit this world like this. You are still family. You are still brothers and sisters. (The entity raises their arm to their chest.) Entity: Listen, do you want to know something? I spoke to the Caretaker. On his death bed, before he met his demise, I appeared to him. We spoke about the event, and I will say: He is sorry. And I have officially accepted his apology. I hope you can understand. (A squirrel begins to speak to the entity.) Squirrel 1: You kidding me? You spoke to him? Trusted you, bitch! (Another squirrel runs over to them, and puts their hands on their shoulders.) Squirrel 2: Be calm, friend. Maybe talk? Squirrel 1: Off me, proto fuck. (All the squirrels begin to assault each other through physical mutilation. While this is happening, the entity sighs, and begins to slowly rise off the ground.) Entity: The warning has been given. Your fate is now your own. Ankala-Koresh. (The entity begins to rise from the ground to the air, watching the squirrel population attack each other. When one half of the squirrels have been killed, they begin to dig holes and use the stated space-time anomaly to transport to their original locations, all while looking at the entity.) (After the squirrels are gone, the entity covers their face with their hands, and then begins to rub their temples as they demanifest.) Entity: Why did he have to make me the God of fucking squirrels? (The entity demanifests.) Footnotes 1. The largest sites of activity being Area-12 and Site-119. The head of the creation of specimens is currently Junior Researcher Kim Genicode for Area-12, and Site Director Kolt Moor for Site-119. 2.

SCP-3762	euclid	A photograph of SCP-3762 after a battle (see Recovered Document D). Item #: SCP-3762 Special Containment Procedures: MTF Tau-24 ("Full House") are tasked with observing SCP-3762 during its current period of growth. Mineral samples from the exterior shell and blood draws from the interior tissue are to be performed weekly. Any changes to the chemical composition of SCP-3762 is to be reported immediately to Research Cohort Alpha-22 in Site 19. Due to the small size of its current location, SCP-3762 is in danger of discovery by the native population. In case of discovery, MTF Tau-24 is to be dispatched with amnestics. Natives have been informed that several unexploded landmines have been discovered in the area, and that all forms of digging are prohibited. In the event of the death of the current Agent Tau-24-01, agents are instructed to contact the nearest male blood relative according to Spreadsheet 3762-23-Epsilon. Instances of SCP-3762-1 are to remain within SCP-3762 at all times. New instances of SCP-3762-1 are to be photographed and transcribed immediately. Description: SCP-3762 is a bio-lithic organism of indeterminate age. SCP-3762 takes the form of a structure composed primarily of stone; however, interior components of wood, metal, and other materials have been discovered. Excavation of the outer material will reveal an inner layer consisting of vascularized tissue. Low-frequency sonography has revealed several interior organs, including a heart analogue and several [REDACTED]. All DNA extracted from SCP-3762 has been shown to be human (p < .00001). Biomarker analysis suggests that SCP-3762 shares a common ancestor with Agent █████ Tanner and other individuals listed on Spreadsheet 3762-23-Epsilon (p < .05). SCP-3762-1 refers to a type of paper produced by SCP-3762. This paper incorporates large portions of calcium carbonate in addition to cellulose and other organic materials, greatly increasing its longevity. SCP-3762 is associated with a specific Welsh family line with the surname Tanner. On numerous instances (See Table 3762-01), a member of the Tanner family has discovered SCP-3762 and used it for shelter. These appearances generally occur in times of great distress, and no more than once in a single generation. Several such appearances are documented by handwritten notes and letters written on instances of SCP-3762-1 (see Recovered Documents A-E for a sample of such material). Testing has confirmed that SCP-3762 travels physically between locations rather than teleporting or implementing any other form of discontinuous travel. SCP-3762 is capable of moving at a rate of ██ meters per day using contraction waves similar to those observed in gastropod locomotion. SCP-3762 possesses a mild cognitohazardous effect, causing observers to neglect its motion or its sudden appearances. The Foundation did not become aware of SCP-3762 until an agent from the Tanner family encountered it during the recapture of SCP-███ (see Document E below) and placed a tracking device within it. SCP-3762 utilizes a form of precognition, allowing it to develop the appropriate form for the survival of the Tanner family. It has created towers, farmhouses, mineshafts, chapel, bunkers, and [DATA EXPUNGED]. Testing has determined that it takes between █ and ██ years for SCP-3762 to assume a new form. SCP-3762, though slow, has immense strength, capable of pushing through steel plates of ██ cm in thickness. Testing has determined that it can be restrained by keeping it elevated from the ground (for instance, by attaching large masses of metal to it and applying a magnetic field; see Document 3762-A-2). However, all agents are currently ordered to allow SCP-3762 to travel freely to its next location, pursuant to Foundation interests as outlined in Document 3762-13. Documents Recovered: Document A: 01/23/1352 At Alisaundre I was, whan it was wonne by a dark Knight, men clepeth Deeth He hath a thousand slayn this pestilence: Yet have I escapen from this prisoun of deeth. This hous, blessed from every wikked wight was shown me. I crossed the threshfold, and the dore was faste shette. I drank water of the wel, and did soupe of foode clene From grene treës. My gode fader, his name was writen In this book, and alle his lyne, ech after other. Herkneth to my tale, and blessed be this hous ay! Rough translation: I was at Alexandria when it was won by a dark Knight, whom men call Death He has slain a thousand with this disease: Yet I have escaped from this prison of death. This house, blessed to be safe from every wicked man, was shown me. I crossed the threshold, and the door was fast shut. I drank water of the well, and ate clean food From green trees. My good father's name was written In this book, and all his descendants, each after another. Listen to my tale, and blessed be this house forever! Document B: 01/20/1607 My name is Duncan Tanner. The ryver of Severn rose upon a sudden and the hyghest tyde, with barefaced power, swept away my home and friends. And I had died, except this aery tower, in which I sodden stand, had not appeared. This tome bears witness that many of my line have entered this hall under various forms. What charm or magic, angel or devil hath done this I know not, but I thank you. Document C: 09/14/1862 Battle oh horrid battle. What a bloody place was that sunken road as we advanced and the Irish Brigade fell back; what sights I have seen now around me. Not a mound or a tree gave us protection as we fled. Private James Spencer in the front rank went down with an awful cry, fell forward on his face and was motionless. I found this home, entered, and barred the entrance. From a window I shot at the enemy captain. I found this tattered book with strange letters from men whose names I am well familiar with. This incredible secret I would attribute to the angels, but this house I fear is subject to some horrible curse. I discovered where a stray bullet had entered the wall and red blood dripped from the hole. God have mercy on us all. -Charles Tanner Document D: 11/23/1914 I grieve as I write this. How I came to be here, I cannot say. Perhaps I died, with my men, and this is hell, or some sort of awful heaven. I sit on a broken box in this battered shell of a house, with fresh gaps in the few remaining walls made by the enemy bullets. I cannot think of those, now, who took their places in the firing line for the last time today. What became of my squadron? I think I know; those bodies that lie in the trampled garden-close of this deserted house are not the enemy's, nor the blood which coats these walls. I pause in my writing to look at this house again. These pages that I have scribbled on are some sort of written record, which leave the most lively impressions. Surely a night of fever, a night of depression has lead me to imagine these things. Or perhaps some ancient genius loci truly has blessed our family over these years. But the captain approaches, and these pages I will store where I found them.-Henry Tanner Document E: ██/██/19█ Dr. █████: Please state your name. Agent Tanner: My name is █████ Tanner. Dr. █████: Tell us again what happened in Mexico. Agent Tanner: It was the second day, after SCP-███ breached containment. Agents were dying left and right. I was part of MTF Tau-17. I stumbled on an abandoned mineshaft. We cut the cables and lowered the elevator as fast as we could. SCP-███ came right over the top of the shaft after we entered. It buried the entrance, and we fell the last 20 meters. After it was over- Dr. █████: You didn't suffer any injuries from the fall? Agent Tanner: No, there was a large pile of organic material, decayed leaves, I think it was, that stopped our fall. We lit our flashlights, and discovered that we were in an underground concrete room with a small spring in the corner. It was enough to hold us up until after SCP-███ was [REDACTED]. We were recovered three days later. Dr. █████: What can you tell us about this? [Here, the doctor produced a large sheaf of papers] Agent Tanner: Yes, this appears to be a written history by members of my family, dating back to ███ CE. That's what led me to suspect the anomalous nature of the structure we were in. [EXTRANEOUS DIALOG REMOVED] Document 3762-13: Level 4 Clearance Only – hide block With the assistance of Agent Tanner, the SCP-3762 was located on 01/14/19██ and monitored as it traveled over a period of ███ months to the island of ███████ ██ █████. Since then, it has been steadily increasing in mass and volume, primarily underground. Samples taken from the outer skin show that it has been incorporating larger and larger volumes of post-transition metals such as lead and gold. Several sub-areas of the underground portion of the subject are filled with a novel species of moss that is similar to Cladosporium sphaerospermum, but with increased radiotrophic properties. Testing has revealed this moss to be edible. The largest sub-area is a large, gold-lined cavern containing 21000 liters of water and an apparatus capable of water recycling. These preparations are compatible with an XK-Class End of the World Scenario involving a gamma ray burst of ██ solar mass-equivalents of energy. We are currently attempting to identify possible sources of such a burst. Given current growth patterns, subject is expected to reach full size in ██ years.
SCP-3763	euclid	SCP-3763 during initial recovery Item #: SCP-3763 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3763 is to be stored in the Anomalous Vehicle Containment Center at Site-48. All maintenance of SCP-3763 must be completed with the knowledge and consent of SCP-3763-1. SCP-3763-1 is to be contained in a standard humanoid containment cell at Site-48. As SCP-3763-1 believes it is in the custody of Marshall, Carter and Dark LLP, all personnel working with SCP-3763-1 are to maintain this deception by any means necessary. SCP-3763-1 is allowed access to approved entertainment material in exchange for its cooperation during testing of SCP-3763. Description: SCP-3763 is a 1964 Chevrolet Biscayne sedan. The vehicle is installed with a "Thalbrum Vehicle Security System", believed to be the source of its anomalous effects. Otherwise, SCP-3763 will operate in a non-anomalous manner. SCP-3763-1 is a young European-American adult male by the name of Daniel Thalbrum. SCP-3763-1 is legally recognized as the owner of SCP-3763, and therefore possesses complete control of its properties. SCP-3763-1 has stated that the "vehicle security system" SCP-3763 is installed with is the invention of Howard Thalbrum, SCP-3763-1's deceased father. SCP-3763 presents a memetic effect on any individuals attempting to interact with the vehicle without the permission of SCP-3763-1. Said individuals will experience an anomalous unwillingness to make contact with SCP-3763 when within a radius of three meters. When asked why, affected individuals will cite the "security system" as the reason for their refusal. SCP-3763-1 is immune to these effects, and is able to cancel the memetic effect on others by giving verbal or written consent for affected individuals to interact with SCP-3763. In the event that a substance is ejected towards SCP-3763, an invisible barrier will materialize, covering the outermost surfaces of SCP-3763, and suspended around it by approximately 3 centimeters. This barrier will deflect all materials and objects thrown at SCP-3763. Said materials will be able to make contact with SCP-3763 with the consent of SCP-3763-1. Discovery: The existence of SCP-3763 was uncovered on 7/22/2010 by intercepting communications between employees of Marshall, Carter and Dark LLP regarding a "Thalbrum Vehicle Security System." A prototype would be transferred to MC&D representatives at St. Everetts Memorial Hospital in Laurel Creek, California on 7/24/2010. SCP-3763-1 would accompany the vehicle on behalf of the late inventor. The Foundation was able to intercept this delivery by posing as MC&D representatives, and deceiving SCP-3763-1 into turning over SCP-3763 to the Foundation. Due to SCP-3763-1 giving permission to interact with SCP-3763 as needed, delivery to Site-48 was successful. Interview Log: The following interview was completed shortly after the arrival of SCP-3763-1 into Foundation custody. + Show Interview Log - Hide Interview Log Interviewed: SCP-3763-1 Interviewer: Researcher Terrance Tsai <Begin Log> Researcher Tsai: Hello, Mr. Thalbrum. My name is Terrance Tsai, and I am here today for your orientation as a honorary employee of Marshall, Carter and Dark Limited Liability Partnership. SCP-3763-1: Hi, sir. Please, call me Daniel. It's nice to meet you. Researcher Tsai: I have heard that your late father, Howard, invented a revolutionary new vehicle security system. Do you know how it works? SCP-3763-1: Nah. My dad liked to keep secrets, especially around my mom, when she was still around. Researcher Tsai: Do you mind if we run a few tests on the prototype vehicle? We'll need to see how the security system works before we can… um… put it out on the market. SCP-3763-1: Yeah, sure. Just don't crash it, it's actually my dad's first car. He had it since his teens. It's like a piece of him is still around, you know? Researcher Tsai: Thank you for your cooperation, Daniel. Another representative will meet you in here, and show you to your new room. <End Log> Closing Statement: [After this interview, SCP-3763-1 was taken to its containment chamber.] Test Logs: The following is an incomplete list of experiments regarding SCP-3763. + Show Test Logs - Hide Test Logs Test 3763-01 Procedure: D-3578 was instructed to enter SCP-3763 without permission from SCP-3763-1. Results: As D-3578 approached SCP-3763, he became apprehensive about his instructions, and refused to make contact with SCP-3763. When asked why, D-3578 cited the "security system" as his reason. SCP-3763-1, who was watching the experiment, then gave verbal permission to D-3578 to enter SCP-3763. D-3578 complied with the original instructions, and sat in the front passenger seat of SCP-3763. Notes: This security system appears to be a memetic hazard, and may not actually provide physical security for SCP-3763. -Researcher Xiao Test 3763-02 Procedure: D-6550 and D-4389 were both instructed to enter SCP-3763 without permission from SCP-3763-1. Results: D-6550 and D-4389 both refused to interact with SCP-3763. When SCP-3763-1 gave verbal consent, both personnel entered SCP-3763. Notes: SCP-3763 possesses the ability to affect multiple people at once. -Dr. Ficarra Test 3763-04 Procedure: Researcher Wendyl Wong attempted to operate SCP-3763 around a testing track at Site-48, in order to measure possible performance discrepancies due to its anomalous effects. Results: With the approval of SCP-3763-1, Researcher Wong entered SCP-3763, but refused to drive the vehicle. SCP-3763-1 had to give additional permission for Researcher Wong to drive SCP-3763. No discrepancies in performance were recorded. Test 3763-05 Procedure: An open bucket of red paint was thrown onto SCP-3763 by a mechanical arm, as no personnel were willing to throw the paint themselves. SCP-3763-1 was not informed of this test. Results: The paint was repelled away from the surface of SCP-3763 by an unseen obstruction. The paint, including the bucket, did not contact SCP-3763. Notes: In the event that contact with SCP-3763 seems unavoidable, the vehicle will be able to divert the materials in another direction to avoid contact. -Dr. Srivastava Test 3763-08 Procedure: Two machine guns were mounted onto mechanical arms, and instructed to fire upon SCP-3763. SCP-3763-1 was not informed of this test. Results: All bullets with a trajectory towards SCP-3763 halted in mid-air about 2 meters from the vehicle, and fell to the ground. No damage to SCP-3763 was recorded. Notes: There appears to be a unique effect on firearms, as the bullets stopped farther away from SCP-3763 than other materials, and did not bounce away. -Dr. Boudames Test 3763-10 Procedure: Foundation mechanic Nathanial Knapp attempted to wash SCP-3763 and change its oil and tires. Knapp was not informed of SCP-3763's anomalous properties. Results: When in close proximity to SCP-3763, Knapp was suddenly unwilling to perform maintenance, citing his "lack of experience" with vintage cars. SCP-3763-1 had to give written permission for Knapp to perform the necessary repairs. When attempting to spray water onto SCP-3763 for a wash, Knapp reported that the water instead accumulated on the invisible barrier, giving the appearance of floating puddles. SCP-3763-1 had to issue permission for the water to make contact with SCP-3763. When Knapp attempted to pour oil into the engine, the invisible barrier repelled the oil, resulting in the oil entering Knapp's orifices. Knapp was sent to the infirmary, and all repairs were cancelled. Test 3763-14 Procedure: A Ford F-650 would be driven towards SCP-3763 to measure the ability of its invisible barrier. As no personnel were willing to operate the vehicle themselves, a bipedal automaton would drive instead. SCP-3763-1 was not informed of this test. Results: When the test vehicle reached a distance of 25 meters from SCP-3763, its front fascia caved in and both axles locked up. The vehicle halted to a complete stop 3 meters from SCP-3763. The test vehicle was successfully repaired after this experiment. No damage was recorded on SCP-3763. Addendum: Following the initial containment of SCP-3763, a raid was conducted on the former Thalbrum family apartment in an effort to retrieve information regarding SCP-3763. While no such information was found, two letters were discovered, having been sent between SCP-3763-1 and Howard Thalbrum, who was staying at the St. Everetts Memorial Hospital when the letters were written. Both letters have been transcribed below. + Show Documents - Hide Documents Hey Dad, I want you to know that I'm doing okay. I'm sorry that I'm not able to see you. However, I'm able to write this letter to you. I know a lot is going on right now. The people at Marshall, Carter and Dark are probably trying to get you to sign something. I just want you to know that I still love you, and I always will. If I could visit you, I would, but I'm just really busy right now, with school and all. I heard the news about your cancer. They told me you only have a few weeks left. That has to be scary, and I can't imagine the pain you must be going through. Look, I know I wasn't the best person I could've been. I could've studied more and hung out with better people. When I heard about your diagnosis, I admit I was a bit self centered in how I responded. I worried about me, about how I would survive without either of my parents. But now I realize that I should've worried about you instead. I should've been there for you, to comfort you as your last days ticked away. I should've reminded you about the things you built, the lasting impact your inventions would have. But instead I just shunned you. I didn't even think of visiting until now, when I can't anymore. I have so much regret I want to express, all the pain and lost time I'll never get back. The memories I could've made with you after Mom left, they never happened. I wanted to follow my own path, ignoring the man who took care of me by himself. I just want to say that I'm sorry. I'm sorry for ignoring you, I'm sorry that I can't see you anymore, I'm sorry about how I wasn't there for you. I hope you can forgive me. I love you. Your son, Daniel Thalbrum 5/12/10 Saint Everetts Memorial Hospital Patient Memo, 5-14-2010 To Daniel, Thank you for writing a letter. You never were good at writing letters anyway, so it's good that you are practicing. While I am disappointed that you are unable to visit your old man, I am still grateful to hear from you. I have been working well with Marshall, Carter, and Dark LLP regarding my invention. I appreciate your longing to have spent more time with me, and to be honest, many of the activities you partook in disappointed me. However, I admit that I did not make a big effort to connect with you more, as I was focused on my invention. I should've tried to be more of an influence in your life, instead of chasing riches that I know I'll never get. It took a cancer diagnosis for me to appreciate the time I have left, but I'm glad that you don't need such an event to happen to yourself to appreciate life. After your mother left, I became more focused on my pet project. As a result, I neglected my role as a father in your life, as I was obsessed with success and fortune. Now that I've found an investor, I won't even be able to enjoy any wealth that my invention brings me. I'm still going with the contract in order to set up a royalty system for you, and your future. The money's going to have to go to someone, after all. I just want you to remember that time is short, and there's only so much to do. I want you to do great things with the money, and benefit many people. I suppose that's all I have to write to you. I've also put in my will that full ownership of my Biscayne will go to you as well. Oh, and I also accept your apology. Goodbye, my son. I'll see you some other day. I love you too. Howard F.

SCP-3764	safe	Item #: SCP-3764 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3764 is to be contained in a standard Safe-class object container. Requests to use SCP-3764 for clinical, utility or humanitarian purposes are to be sent to the project director, acceptance pending their decision. Instances of SCP-3764-1 are to be regularly distributed to all staff members at meal times, if requested. Standing permission is granted for use as rations for D-class personnel, though special precaution must be taken to provide supplementary food in addition to SCP-3764-1 Description: SCP-3764 is a small burlap sack with cursive writing on the front that reads "For those in need -a friend" written in the native language of the reader. Illiterate subjects typically see some variation of a simple picture, typically of a steaming loaf of bread. Inside SCP-3764 is a loaf of wheat bread, warm and typically smelling freshly baked, designated SCP-3764-1. When taken out of SCP-3764, SCP-3764-1 will have a small string tied around it, with a note attached to it. The note is personalized to whoever first reads it. Notes typically range from one to two words in length, though some occasional instances have had lengthier notes. Notes are typically in the most formal version of whatever language they are written in, and are almost always signed, "a friend". Some notes suggest that SCP-3764 is conscious, possibly even sapient, as a few notes have been found that spoke directly to Foundation personnel. Notes are always in the native language of the first reader, and do not alter after the first reading see experiment log #3764-1. Once an instance of SCP-3764-1 is taken out of SCP-3764, a new instance of SCP-3764-1 will appear in SCP-3764. The number of SCP-3764-1 instances that can be generated is limited by the number of people within a 200 meter radius of SCP-3764. Initial testing revealed that SCP-3764-1 is safe for human consumption. Subjects who consume SCP-3764-1 describe it as having a pleasant taste. All subjects report a feeling of satisfied hunger, and experienced no feelings of hunger for the rest of the day, coupled with reports of pleasant feelings, and reports of a restful sleep. Subjects eating exclusively SCP-3764-1 and water for a period of three weeks experienced no malnutrition symptoms, and could have possibly survived indefinitely until an instance of SCP-3764-1 crumbled to dust when a researcher pulled it out of SCP-3764. Its note read, You know what they say, "Man cannot live on bread alone." and all that. Be nice. Variety is the spice of life. -a friend Instances of SCP-3764-1 continued to crumble when removed from SCP-3764 until researchers included side dishes of fruits and vegetables with them. Experiment Log #3764-1: Subject: D-4568, suffers from severe night terrors and sleep paralysis, resulting in sleep deprivation. Result: Standard loaf, note read "Sleep well. -a friend" Notes: Subject reported a deep and uninterrupted sleep. Requested permission for use of SCP-3764-1 as a sleep aid, which was granted. Subject: D-4678, clinical depression Result: Standard loaf, note read "I care about you. -a friend" Notes: Notable decrease in depression symptoms, such as improved hygiene and healthier sleep patterns. Research into possible medical applications of SCP-3764-1 ongoing. Subject: Site-19 personnel who consented to SCP-3764-1 being included in their cafeteria meals. Result: Pleasant effects resulted in increased adoption by other members of the staff. Latest psych evaluations show a notable increase in morale. Notes: Proposal for SCP-3764-1's use as field rations for MTFs submitted by project director to Foundation leadership. Subject: D-8934 and D-8942, in Cell Block F cafeteria. Result: D-8934 was accidentally overlooked during a handing out of SCP-3764-1 instances, and the guards left without giving him anything. D-8942 noticed this, and tore his loaf in half to share with D-8934. The two halves spontaneously became whole instances of SCP-3764-1. Notes: While not intentional, this incident possibly shows further evidence for SCP-3764 having consciousness and situational awareness. Subject: D-8654 and D-8681, in Cell Block K cafeteria. Result: D-8654 asked to read D-8681's note, who declined. D-8654 forcibly seized the note, and upon attempting to read it the note read "Be polite." -a friend Notes: Description updated due to new data. Subject: D-3457, convicted of multiple homicides, reportedly suicidal. Result: Standard loaf with note that read "Eat, and live. You owe them that much. -a friend" Notes: No further reports of suicidal activity, subject taken off of suicide watch by psych team. Subject: D-4561, convicted of a string of rapes and murders of small children Result: SCP-3764-1 instance came out of bag charred black, and crumbled to ash upon being touched by D-4561. The note read "Sweet Dreams. -Not your friend" Notes: Subject was very shaken by incident, and went to bed shortly after. Upon falling asleep, the subject began screaming in their sleep, presumably having a nightmare. Every attempt to wake D-4561 failed, including a powerful electric shock. Fourteen hours later, D-4561 woke, and began whimpering incoherently for the rest of his waking hours. D-4561 was hysterical in his desire not to go back to sleep, and eventually resorted to self harm in an attempt to prevent himself from falling asleep. D-4561 was moved to a special containment cell for his own safety and to monitor his condition, which remains unchanged to date. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3764" by Poached_Egg, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3765	euclid	This is my first SCP I've ever written. I recognize that it's really not the best writing ever, and I'll probably make it better one of these days. But I'm still proud of it and I'm glad I was able to get it to stick! The image is an edited picture of Beaver_(29916261218).jpg (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Beaver_(29916261218).jpg) from the Wikimedia Commons and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 Generic license. ▸ More by this Author ◂ {$comments2} F.A.Q. {$doesthisfixthebug} BY ORDER OF THE OVERSEER COUNCIL The following file is Level 3/3765 classified Unauthorized access is forbidden. 3765 Item #: SCP-3765 Site Responsible: Site-64 Director: Michael Brownfield Research Head: Jerard Throckmorton Assigned Task Force: N/A Level 3/3765 CLASSIFIED An instance of SCP-3765 inspecting a small tool. Special Containment Procedures: Per the Boring Agreement, containment of SCP-3765 defaults to GOI-466 (Wilson's Wildlife Solutions)1. All SCP-3765 instances located that are not in the custody of GOI-466 are to be contained within a Site-64 standard containment chamber and given sufficient food and water. After containment is established, instances of SCP-3765 are to be immediately reported to WWS Liason Frank Richardson and SCP-3765 Head Researcher Throckmorton. Civilian hunting of any beavers within Clackamas County, Oregon is to be discouraged through ad campaigns on local television networks by the WWS. Description: SCP-3765 is an anomalous group of Castor canadensis2 consisting of at least 1400 beavers found in Clackamas County, Oregon, and centralized in the town of Boring. Instances of SCP-3765 have higher average intelligence and significantly higher collaboration skills than their non-anomalous counterparts. SCP-3765's primary anomaly is the ability to replicate any human structure after being allowed to examine a building or observe blueprints of a structure for a time relative to its complexity. Instances of SCP-3765 prefer to build their structures on riverbeds and other areas where non-anomalous beavers reside, but have been shown to take civilian "clients" for inland construction. It is worth noting that SCP-3765 will always use wood for all components of a structure, even when non-wood materials are called for3. SCP-3765's secondary anomalous property is the ability to communicate in fluent English. Addenda: Addendum SCP-3765-1: Discovery SCP-3765 was brought to Foundation attention on ██/██/████ after GOI-466 (Wilson's Wildlife Solutions) received a number of phone calls from civilians encountering a group of beavers requesting the blueprints to their homes. See Addendum SCP-3765-2 for a transcript of one such call. Addendum SCP-3765-2: Transcript (Caller calls GoI-466. An employee of GoI-466 picks up, hereby referred to as Respondent.) Respondent: Hello, you have reached the Wilson's Wildlife Solutions Wildlife Helpline, how may I assist you? Caller: Hi, so the weirdest thing happened just 10 minutes ago, you probably won't believe me. Respondent: Go ahead sir, I'm sure I've seen weirder things. Caller: Uh, alright, so these beavers with hard hats knocked on my door and- Respondent: Oh not these guys again. Caller: Other people have reported this too? Respondent: Yeah, just recently we've been swamped with calls about these beavers, but please continue so I can place a full incident report. Caller: Right so these beavers with hard hats knocked on my door, and when I opened up, they did the weirdest thing, they asked to see the blueprints to my house. I told them I didn't have them and quickly shut the door. Luckily they ran away after that. Respondent: Thank you, we will have a team come to your house soon, may we have your address? Caller: Of course! My address is [REDACTED]. Respondent: Thank you, I'll send somebody there as soon as possible. Have a nice day! [END LOG] NOTE: A group of WWS employees was dispatched to the Caller's location at 16:38, at 17:23 visual contact was made with SCP-3765, and at 17:35, 15 instances of SCP-3765 were in the WWS's custody. Addendum SCP-3765-3: WWS Letter Exchange Regarding SCP-3765 Authorization from Head Researcher Throckmorton is Required to Progress Access Granted Below is a letter exchange between WWS Liaison Frank Richardson and SCP-3765 Head Researcher Throckmorton. To the Great Folks at the SCP Foundation, As you well know, as per the Boring Agreement, all containment of anomalous wildlife defaults to us, but you still have oversight of what we do with such anomalies. As such we would like to ask for your permission for a special project with the beavers, or what you like to call SCP-3765. After receiving several calls about the construction-loving beavers, we decided that we had to see for ourselves what these little guys could do. We went down to a riverbed where they were rumored to reside, and we were amazed by what we saw; they had built up almost a small town! They had things like a motel, tackle shop, and even a diner! All made out of wood, of course. We visited a building that looked exactly like City Hall, and we spoke to some of these beavers about what they were doing here. It was amazing the kind of ideas that they had, and the ambition they possessed. After seeing firsthand the kind of craftsmanship and intelligence that these beavers have. We believe that these beavers; if put to work, could expand our operations by a large margin. If given the proper training, we could have these beavers building things for our operation. This could expand our facilities significantly, making it so that your Foundation would not have to do as much work for us. We know you folks aren't too keen on using anomalies, you would rather keep them all contained, but we believe that the benefits far outweigh the minor breach in protocol that would be necessary. Please consider our request. Thank You, Frank Richardson Dear Mr. Richardson and the rest of Wilson's Wildlife Solutions, After carefully considering your offer, we have decided to begin testing SCP-3765 for subordination and cooperation with the Foundation. If they pass these tests we will approve SCP-3765 for use within Wilson's Wildlife Foundation. Anomalies are generally too unpredictable or dangerous to be of safe use, and we rarely if ever use them ourselves. We've never granted this right to another organization, but your organization has proven itself to be trustworthy. As you can imagine, there will be a lot of red tape surrounding an event such as this. If this goes through, we are going to keep a close watch on everything you do with SCP-3765, and if you go out of line, we will be forced to revoke your access to specimens of SCP-3765 for purposes beyond containment and study. If you do this right it could set the precedent that anomalies can be used safely and responsibly by organizations other than the SCP Foundation. Best of Luck, Dr. Jerard D. Throckmorton, SCP-3765 head researcher Mister Throckmorton, Thank you so much! As you can imagine it's hard to hire people for a secret wildlife preservation service specializing in animals that don't obey the laws of nature, so we need all the help we can get, and I believe that these beavers could significantly expand our foundation. Thanks a million, Frank Richardson Frank Richardson, The tests on SCP-3765 have been completed, and they have passed within acceptable levels. I have been authorized to let you use SCP-3765 on a trial basis. Be advised that if anything goes wrong you and your company will be liable and we will be forced to revoke your access to SCP-3765. Other than that, I hope they serve you and your company well. Best of Luck, Dr. Jerard D. Throckmorton, SCP-3765 head researcher Mister Throckmorton, We can't thank you enough for letting us use the beavers! We've spoken to them about our agreement and they seem ecstatic! We've already begun putting them to work building a new wing for our on-site dormitories, and they're doing a great job! We're thinking about teaching them how to use materials other than wood, but they seem a little apprehensive to that… They've streamlined our production of facilities and I think that our arrangement is going to be instrumental in the growth of the WWS. The good part for you is that they work for free so this should slash the amount of money you need to give us by a significant amount (see article 3 chapter 4 of the Boring Agreement for more details on the finances). Kindest Regards, Frank Richardson P.S. I know it might be hard to do with all your super-serious top secret save the world stuff, but you should take a day off and see the beavers, it's amazing! Dear Frank, I'm glad that the beavers are being put to good use, after studying their behavior, I feel like they will be of great help to you if you treat them with respect, of course. They really are interesting animals, aren't they; with the way that they all work with one another to bring about a common goal. If we didn't have to keep them a secret I think that they could easily replace all human construction workers with how well they work together. I suppose I've grown quite fond of these creatures in my study of them. Sincerely, Jerard Throckmorton P.S. I'd love to come down there and see them some time. Footnotes 1.

SCP-3766	euclid	A World War 2-era aeroplane, partially consumed by SCP-3766 Item №: SCP-3766 Special Containment Procedures: As a method of preventing the effects of SCP-3766 has not yet been found, no plan for containment of SCP-3766 besides basic media suppression has been devised at time of writing. Description: SCP-3766 are semi-metaphysical creatures, capable of feeding on the conceptual base of anything deemed "man-made", including (but not limited to) artificial structures, works of art, digital information and humans themselves1. SCP-3766 are humanoid, between 80 and 150 cm in height, and composed almost entirely from desiccated plant matter and matted hair from various creatures. Attempts to neutralise SCP-3766 have resulted in instantaneous binary fission, which is presumed to be their primary method of reproduction. SCP-3766 instances are native to a hitherto uncharted Polynesian island approximately 12 km in diameter, located at the centre of a perception altering field, the net result of which is to render the island invisible to any subjects less than 200 metres from its border. A probabilistic anomaly (believed to be an intrinsic property of SCP-3766) also affects the island, and all vehicles (air, sea, or otherwise) passing within 500 metres will inevitably crash in its vicinity. This is due to external circumstances in 96% of cases, the other 4% being directly caused by SCP-3766. When left unobserved, SCP-3766 will construct life-size models of vehicles from any available material, and position these on the beach. Within 48 hours of the model's creation, the model's real-life counterpart will attempt to move close to the island (ordinarily following pre-planned routes), and will fall victim to SCP-3766's effects. Despite extensive research, no anomalous influence has been found to cause this correlation. The following is a highly abridged list of noteworthy models constructed by SCP-3766-1 instances, and the effects thereof: Date Details of Model Effect 19/03/1989 First model noted by the Foundation. Appeared to be a replica of a small sailing ship, complete with twenty model crew members and sails woven from natural fibres. A ship of similar size, returning from port, was drawn into the island by abnormally severe weather patterns in the region. Although initially intending to take only eighteen crew members, the captain (one Marcus Llewellyn), changed plans just before setting sail, allowing two others passage. All human crew members consumed by SCP-3766 alongside the boat itself. 14/08/1994 First non-seafaring vehicle replicated by SCP-3766, resembling a commercial passenger plane with a number of human passengers. All passengers consumed by SCP-3766 on landing. Aircraft used as the centrepiece for a primitive celebration, after which it was also consumed. 03/12/2003 A small vehicle, vaguely resembling several known brands of speedboat. Model was left on the beach for an abnormally long period of time, upwards of three weeks. Several vehicles similar to the model were stolen by a local gang, and anchored nearby. During a storm two weeks later, one such vehicle came unfastened and drifted into the others, which quickly followed suit. All vehicles were drawn towards the island by natural water currents, and were consumed by SCP-3766 over a number of months. 29/01/2017 A large, vaguely cylindrical object, tapered at one end with a number of spurs (tree branches) arranged radially. SCPSAT-044A, a Foundation-owned communication satellite, underwent scheduled deorbiting. Complications arose, and the satellite made a direct impact 50 metres offshore from the island. While initially observed with suspicion by SCP-3766 instances, it was quickly consumed along with its contents. 06/06/2021 [REDACTED] [REDACTED] See Addendum.1 for more information. Addendum.1: On 27/05/2021, despite worries over hostility from SCP-3766, the decision was made to station a permanent ten-man task force on the island. Research Task Force Gamma-Digamma ("So Cargo Good") was formed shortly after. Almost immediately after the initial island survey began, RTF-Γ-Ϝ Leader Micheals located a small, partially concealed cave on the eastern shorefront. The cave contained several SCP-3766 instances, who watched the intrusion warily, and ten humanoid models, dressed in white coats woven from dried grasses. Preliminary examination of relevant materials placed these models at just over 48 hours old. Contact with RTF-Γ-Ϝ was lost shortly afterwards. Footnotes 1.

SCP-3767	euclid	by Captain Kirby The onset of SCP-3767 Item #: SCP-3767 Special Containment Procedures: Personnel embedded in United Airlines are to discourage, disrupt, and sabotage all attempts to overbook flights from Newark to Houston. Should an overbooked flight depart, Foundation personnel are to detain all passengers to administer Class-B amnestics before allowing them to disembark. Should personnel locate an individual not on the original flight manifest, they are to be detained and directed to a nearby Foundation site for further containment. Experimentation requiring overbooked flights may be scheduled under approval from SCP-3767 project head. Description: SCP-3767 refers to an anomalous phenomenon that occurs on overbooked United Airlines flights from Newark, New Jersey to Houston, Texas. SCP-3767 occurs approximately twenty minutes after the airplane reaches cruising altitude. The onset is indicated by a change in the color of the sky, as it will appear to take on a dark shade of purple1. This begins at the horizon, and spreads upwards. Once the sky has changed colors entirely2, the plane stops all translational movement, and enters a slowed free fall3. During this descent, the plane remains parallel to the ground, and the sky appears to grow red. At this point, a feminine voice with a British accent will speak through the plane's speaker system. This voice will declare that an extra passenger is on board and is weighing down the plane. The voice then states that this extra passenger must be removed in order for the plane to regain lift. Video procured during testing shows that an additional passenger is indeed on board. It is unknown at what point this individual appears. After an individual has been removed from the plane, free fall will cease, and the pilot will return the plane to cruising altitude. Ejecting this individual from the plane does not cause the cabin to undergo decompression. As the plane ascends, the sky will return to its original color. Searches of the area where the ejected individual was predicted to land have failed to locate said individual. Passengers aboard the flight are able to recall the events that take place during SCP-3767, but only when prompted. However, they are unable to comprehend the abnormality of the event. In 78% of recorded cases, the passengers collectively decide on an individual to remove, who is then ejected through the airlock. In 21% of cases, an individual removes themselves from the plane. See Addendum SCP-3767-1 for details on the remaining case. In 63% of cases, one passenger on the original manifest will be reported as missing after the event, despite the same number of people getting on and off the plane. Addendum SCP-3767-1: On 05/10/2016, The Foundation sent D-3114 to observe SCP-3767 on flight 3552. When D-3114 landed, all individuals on the original manifest were accounted for. SCP-3767 proceeded as normal, until the passengers attempted to decide who to eject from the flight: + Open Video Transcript - Close Video Transcript For brevity, the following transcription begins immediately after the announcement was made that an additional passenger was on board the flight. All footage was taken from D-3114's camera, which was planted as part of his jacket. <Begin Log> D-3114 is sitting in his aisle seat. The man in the next seat over has fainted. The majority of the passengers quietly murmur among themselves. A small child can be heard crying from behind D-3114. A number of additional passengers appear traumatized as well. Others move about the cabin to either reach their luggage or talk to others. D-3114: Here we go. D-3114 stands. D-3114: [shouting] Well, you all heard the voice, right? Cabin goes silent, save for a crunching noise. After the pause, a woman wearing standard business attire (Passenger A) stands and addresses D-3114. Passenger A: You're suggesting we actually throw someone overboard? D-3114: Do you have any better ideas? Passenger A: Are you insane? D-3114: Trust me lady, I've seen much weirder than this. Passenger A: So you are insane. Please sit down and we'll get you help as soon as we land. D-3114: I'm not ins— A man in casual clothing (Passenger B) stands as well. Passenger B: Are we even going to survive a landing if this keeps up? Passenger A: I mean… I don't know but… D-3114: You can look outside. Might not feel like it in here, but we're moving pretty fast. Passenger A: Sure but— Passenger B: I'm just sayin' that well, it's sorta a numbers game. Passenger A: I guess you have a point. Besides, if it doesn't work then we'd all be fucked anyways. D-3114: Now that's the spirit. Passenger A glares at D-3114. D-3114: Ok, so yeah. Everyone go to your seats. Like whatever it says on the ticket. We'll narrow it down to two people. Passengers reorganize themselves and take their seats. The cabin is silent again, except for a soft crunching noise. Only person left in without a seat is a young child (Passenger C). D-3114: Yo kid, where's your seat? Passenger C approached D-3114, and points to his seat. D-3114: Tough luck kiddo. This one's mine. Also who here is eating something? The crunching noise is really annoying. Passenger A: Wait, who says you aren't the extra passenger? Passenger B: Good point. Do you have anyone to vouch for you? D-3114: Of course! I got— D-3114 turns to the seat next to him. The man sitting there is still unconscious. D-3114: Hey. Hey! Wake up! Passenger B: Anyone else? D-3114 looks at the seats across the aisle. The passengers look away from him. D-3114: You guys don't really think that… Passenger A: It would make sense too. He could've been trying to trick us by actively misleading our search. D-3114: Well then I've done quite a shit job haven't I? Passenger A: I never said you were smart. Passenger B: Whoa whoa. Let's calm down a sec. Passenger B walks to Passenger C and kneels so he can look Passenger C in the eye. Passenger B: Are your mom and dad on board? Passenger C shakes his head. Passenger B: Where are they? Passenger C: Th-they said they would pick me up. My grandma brought m-me here, but couldn't come with. Passenger B: Do you have any luggage with you? Passenger C points to the overhead compartment. Passenger B opens it and pulls out a Spiderman-themed suitcase. Passenger B: This it? Passenger C nods. D-3114: How did you even get that up there? Passenger C: He helped me [points at unconscious man next to D-3114]. Passenger A: Mad man. You have any baggage? D-3114: Don't call me that, bitch. Passenger B: Again, we don't need this! D-3114: Right right. D-3114 reaches below the seat in front of him and pulls out a backpack. D-3114: Here. Passenger A: Well shit. The cabin is silent for thirty seconds. Then, a number of passengers start shouting and pointing fingers. A fight begins. After four minutes a passenger hits D-3114's camera, and the transmission is lost. <End Log> The flight landed on time, and all passengers exited the plane. Inspection of D-3114's camera showed no malfunction. When questioned about the conclusion of the argument, D-3114 failed to recall any specifics. Two days later, The Foundation received reports of an aircraft matching the plane from flight 3552 appearing in the Cherokee National Forest, TN. The plane itself was largely undamaged, but all passengers inside had expired from blunt trauma that would be caused by impacting the ground at terminal velocity. All passengers from the original manifest were present, as well as an additional unidentified male child. Autopsy of this individual showed that its insides consisted of partially eaten pretzel snacks, airplane safety cards, and emergency floatation devices. X-ray scans of the living D-3114 in Foundation custody yielded similar results. Footnotes 1. This change is only apparent from the inside of the plane, as outside observers have confirmed that the sky itself maintains its original color. 2. This process takes approximately ten minutes. 3. Generally remaining slower than one meter per second.

D-3114: Of course! I got— D-3114 turns to the seat next to him. The man sitting there is still unconscious. D-3114: Hey. Hey! Wake up! Passenger B: Anyone else? D-3114 looks at the seats across the aisle. The passengers look away from him. D-3114: You guys don't really think that… Passenger A: It would make sense too. He could've been trying to trick us by actively misleading our search. D-3114: Well then I've done quite a shit job haven't I? Passenger A: I never said you were smart. Passenger B: Whoa whoa. Let's calm down a sec. Passenger B walks to Passenger C and kneels so he can look Passenger C in the eye. Passenger B: Are your mom and dad on board? Passenger C shakes his head. Passenger B: Where are they? Passenger C: Th-they said they would pick me up. My grandma brought m-me here, but couldn't come with. Passenger B: Do you have any luggage with you? Passenger C points to the overhead compartment. Passenger B opens it and pulls out a Spiderman-themed suitcase. Passenger B: This it? Passenger C nods. D-3114: How did you even get that up there? Passenger C: He helped me [points at unconscious man next to D-3114]. Passenger A: Mad man. You have any baggage? D-3114: Don't call me that, bitch. Passenger B: Again, we don't need this! D-3114: Right right. D-3114 reaches below the seat in front of him and pulls out a backpack. D-3114: Here. Passenger A: Well shit. The cabin is silent for thirty seconds. Then, a number of passengers start shouting and pointing fingers. A fight begins. After four minutes a passenger hits D-3114's camera, and the transmission is lost. <End Log> The flight landed on time, and all passengers exited the plane. Inspection of D-3114's camera showed no malfunction. When questioned about the conclusion of the argument, D-3114 failed to recall any specifics. Two days later, The Foundation received reports of an aircraft matching the plane from flight 3552 appearing in the Cherokee National Forest, TN. The plane itself was largely undamaged, but all passengers inside had expired from blunt trauma that would be caused by impacting the ground at terminal velocity. All passengers from the original manifest were present, as well as an additional unidentified male child. Autopsy of this individual showed that its insides consisted of partially eaten pretzel snacks, airplane safety cards, and emergency floatation devices. X-ray scans of the living D-3114 in Foundation custody yielded similar results. Footnotes 1. This change is only apparent from the inside of the plane, as outside observers have confirmed that the sky itself maintains its original color. 2. This process takes approximately ten minutes. 3. Generally remaining slower than one meter per second.
SCP-3768	safe	Item #: SCP-3768 Special Containment Procedures: Information about the procedure of SCP-3768-A is to be contained in a single, paper document at Site-59. Foundation webcrawler 7-ORFEO is to excise and expunge any other information on the Internet pertaining to SCP-3768-A. Standard information suppression campaigns are to be carried out at low priority for non-digital storage formats. A radio with a prepared SCP-3768-A arrangement is to be kept for research into SCP-3768-B. SCP-3768-B is to be monitored and recorded at Site-59 at the discretion of Director Naismith. Description: SCP-3768-A is a ritualistic procedure carried out through the use of: 3.7 grams of zinc, at least 400 grams of table salt, no more than 5 grams of silver, and 7 honeybee carcasses, at least 90% intact from death. These ingredients must be arranged in a specific formation around a civilian FM radio within 500 km of Baltimore, MD. Upon completion of SCP-3768-A, a new radio station can be accessed at 97.3 FM, identified as "Three Moons Public Radio," or "3MPR." The origin of this frequency is believed to be an extradimensional plane of reality. The show's 24-hour programming features news and editorials for the inhabitants of the signal's plane of origin. The host, who (allegedly) has never been off the air once in 300 years, identifies as a "permanently 27-year-old" female human of French Senegalese descent named Julie Niang - hereafter identified as SCP-3768-C. Whether or not the recordings are factual is restricted to personnel with 5/3768 clearance. Selections from SCP-3768-B recordings: SCP-3768-C: Good morning, Drysedge! It is now 8:00 AM Old Eastern Standard Time. Meteorological station Aleph is maintaining a pleasant 62 degrees out today, so wear a light jacket if you're headed to the meat tree market. SCP-3768-C: Lord Ghantouris, also known as the Elephant King or the Arch-Hedon, released an official public statement yesterday to celebrate the fact that he's temporarily sober for the first time in 300 years. He took questions from Saklovaian reporters on the steps of the Marble Hall. In regards to the approximately 30,000 captives of his so-called "meat orgies", Lord Ghantouris responded with, quote, "This was never a part of the plan. The soma was tainted from the start. None of us can stop. I cannot stop. I am scared. Please help us." + 4/3768 Clearance Required - encryption key accepted. Male Voice: …I suppose it goes without saying that I've been bloody well disappointed the whole time. There I was, all "imagine there's no heaven" and "no hell below us" - then I wake up from the murder, and I'm in a place that manages to be both at the same time. "Imagine there's no countries" - Corbenic's got a few trillion countries, and they're in a permanent war with one another. SCP-3768-C: Speaking of which, what are your thoughts on the Strider situation? Male Voice: Interesting that you mention that, I've actually got a song about the whole affair lined up for the new album. It's called 'Dead Monkey Good Monkey'. Probably one of my least subtle tracks in a while. I haven't yelled so much in 40 years of life as I had in 30 minutes of recording. The boys and I were tryin' to go for an early Devin Townsend sound, y'know, the angrier the better. Not to sidetrack too much, of course. So, as for the issue itself - as far as I'm concerned, the Striders gave peace a chance - then ate it, like they do with everything that isn't nailed to the ground in this hellhole. I'm not entirely convinced why we shouldn't just drop everything we have on Bogal Mountain. SCP-3768-C: To no one's surprise, the Central Cabal's unanimous passing of the Mandatory Pan-Corbenese Human Sterilization Act, or MPCHSA, has been causing controversy among the colonies, resulting in demonstrations across the Lunar Capitol. Opponents, including the Child of Heaven Coalition, claim that the right to responsibly conceive children is inalienable. President Niang, who is expected to sign the MPCHSA into law on Tuesday, released the following statement: Male Voice: The world we live in now was meant to be the logical conclusion of our lives on Earth. To create new life here would be to create mortal life. When this happens - and it has happened, all too often - the polarity of death is reversed, and the departed mortal leaves to live forever in Corbenic's so-called "sister universe". The tricky bit with this, of course, is that our world is designed for immortals. Theirs isn't. There are two inevitable results: a guaranteed living nightmare drifting off into deep space - or in the custody of the Foundation, as with several extant case studies - or the presence of an unkillable human being on Earth, with all the potential violence it would entail. SCP-3768-C: In addition, Three Moons Press Secretary Lyndon B. Johnson has insisted that the sterilization measures are painless, non-invasive, and - finally, some good news about this - will not affect libido. + 5/3768 Clearance Required - encryption key accepted. SCP-3768-C: We have some breaking news to report out of Bogal Mountain: the Witch-Queen — Hékati-Bøgal, may her name be thrice-damned for eternity — has died of apparent liver failure. Though it has been previously believed that the Witch-Queen was immortal, drone surveillance footage has confirmed the death of the Strider Matriarch, who was responsible for the consumption and agonizing digestion of over [REDACTED] immortal human colonists. Three Moons intelligence officials in the Prefecture have reported the Witch-Queen's last words to be "NØLAG MZJÉHN," which literally translates to "I find food-planet." It is believed that the Witch-Queen's postmortem vector is identical to that of humans, with a possible spawn point in the [DATA REDACTED BY ORDER OF O5 COMMAND] + RESTRICTED TO PROJECT MALEFICARUM PERSONNEL - Message from the ☽☽☽ Initiative: Foundation. We have some bad news. At an undetermined time in the coming months, the entity you know as SCP-PC-007, a hostile, reality-warping, ten-kilometer-tall, and now immortal primate, is going to enter the orbital path of Mars, en route to Earth. There is a negligible chance of neutralization if she is attacked before then, which becomes a full zero if she gets any nearer to Earth (multiversal iteration 2N). If the records of Foundation terminology from Earth-2M are at all analogous to yours, you have an XK on your hands - at best. Look - she is aware of the existence of SCP-3319, and it'll likely be the first thing she'll smash to pieces. There's no easy exit here. This is going to be a long and difficult battle, and the best potential outcomes that the pre-cogs in R&D can come up with involve the death of 89.5% of humanity. Many adjectives - doomed, among them - come to mind, but the last thing you are in the coming months is alone. We've fought five wars against her and her armies - a good two of which were successful. You’ll be provided with as much help as we can provide. And frankly, this is the angriest we've seen Lord JALAKÅRA in a millennium. His grudge against her predates multicellular life. Even if our army is 75% paperwork and in-fighting, we at least know He has an idea of what he's doing. And if she does cause your extinction - well, when you get to the Great Mead Hall of Saklovai, drinks are on us. You are watched, you are protected, and win or lose, you are loved. - ☽☽☽ ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3768" by daveyoufool, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3769	safe	Item #: SCP-3769 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3769 is to be contained in a standard non-humanoid holding cell at Site-12. Level 4 security clearance is required in order to handle SCP-3769. SCP-3769 is not to be touched without the use of gloves or other protective hand gear. Any organisms affected by a Rescission Event are to be kept in a bio-research containment cell for DNA testing. Description: SCP-3769 is an electronic device of approximately the same size and shape as a standard scientific calculator. Buttons labeled with the numbers 0 through 9 and a button labeled with a decimal point are present on the device, along with a rectangular electroluminescent display screen. No other external features are present. SCP-3769 does not require a power source in order to function. SCP-3769 will adhere itself to any organic life form upon contact. Humans exposed to SCP-3769 have reported a mild stinging sensation during this process. Once attached, SCP-3769 cannot be removed without heavily damaging the affected organism until a number has been entered and the resulting Rescission Event has completed. The primary effect of SCP-3769, classified as a Rescission Event, can last anywhere between a few minutes and several days, depending on the number entered. During this time, the affected organism will evolutionarily regress, undergoing extreme genetic and physiological changes until it resembles a species from some point in its evolutionary or ancestral lineage. The exact resultant species depends on the number entered. According to human subjects, this process is extremely painful. This process will only activate when in contact with a living organism. If an organism dies while a Rescission Event is in progress, SCP-3769 will detach itself, leaving the transformation incomplete. Addendum 3769.1: Discovery and Apprehension SCP-3769 was in development at the ██████ Corporation when its existence was discovered by an undercover Foundation agent. The agent was discovered by corporation employees shortly thereafter, and all physical and digital schematics for the device were purposefully destroyed before Foundation personnel could obtain them. Dr. ████, head of the research division tasked with creating SCP-3769, committed suicide before he could be secured and interrogated, along with █ of his colleagues. Interrogation of other employees within this division was ultimately uninformative, and all remaining personnel within this division were administered Class-C amnestics and released. During temporary Foundation occupation of ██████ headquarters, SCP-3769 was found in a storage vault. It is believed to only be a prototype model, although details of the planned final product are unknown. Addendum 3769.2: Experiment Logs + Access Experiment Logs - Close Experiment Logs Experiment 3769-A Subject: Golden Retriever (Canis lupus domesticus) Number Entered: 1 Rescission time: 12 minutes Results: Subject acquired an appearance resembling a grey wolf (Canis lupus). Subject was still able to sit and roll over on command as it had previously been taught, suggesting that memories are unaffected by SCP-3769 Experiment 3769-B Subject: Domestic horse (Equus ferus caballus) Number Entered: 50 Rescission time: 4 hours and 28 minutes Results: Subject experienced a radical decrease in size, shrinking to about 0.4 meters in height, as well as minor alterations to the head, hooves, and tail. Subject ultimately resembled members of the extinct genus Eohippus. Experiment 3769-C Subject: Domestic chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) Number Entered: 80 Rescission time: 7 hours and 57 minutes Results: Subject nearly doubled in size and experienced rapid molting. The growth of teeth, hands, and a tail also occurred. Subject ultimately acquired the appearance of an unknown species of theropod dinosaur. Experiment 3769-D Subject: Brown rat (Rattus norvegicus) Number Entered: 2000 Rescission time: 6 days, 14 hours, and 38 minutes Results: Subject’s skin and fur began to liquefy, followed by internal organs, muscles, and the skeleton. Subject was eventually entirely converted into a transparent, viscous liquid. Microscopic analysis found this liquid to be made from single-celled eukaryotic organisms Experiment 3769-E Subject: D-3491 (Homo sapiens) Number Entered: 0.0005 Rescission time: 2 minutes Results: Subject underwent slight facial reconstruction and a darkening in hair color. No other major effects were present. Subject remained fully cognizant and retained memories from prior to transformation. DNA analysis found the subject to be genetically identical to his father. Experiment 3769-F Subject: [REDACTED] Number Entered: [REDACTED] Rescission time: [REDACTED] Results: [REDACTED] Attention, Level 4 clearance is required in order to access further documentation on SCP-3769 + Input Credentials - Access Granted Addendum 3769.3: Experiment 3769-F Incident Report Experiment 3769-F was an attempt to discover the genetic nature and origin of SCP-411. However, upon attachment, SCP-3769 emitted rapid bursts of light from its display screen and ejected itself from the subject. The subject did not undergo any genetic or physiological alterations during this process. SCP-3769 became completely unresponsive for three days following this event before spontaneously reactivating. Following this revival, SCP-3769 was found to no longer evolutionarily regress organisms during Rescission Events. Instead, organisms exposed to SCP-3769 adopt genetic and physiological forms not present in the fossil record. It is theorized that SCP-411’s reversed temporal properties may have caused SCP-3769 to rewire itself and reverse in function, transforming affected organisms into an evolutionary descendant rather than an ancestor. All experimentation involving SCP-3769 after the events of Experiment 3769-F have been categorized as Post-F experiments, and have been marked with the θ symbol. Addendum 3769.4: Post-F Experiment Logs Experiment 3769-θA Subject: Theropod Dinosaur of unknown species (from Experiment 3769-C) Number Entered: 80 Rescission time: 7 hours and 57 minutes Results: Subject experiences degeneration of the hands, teeth, and tail, along with a decrease in size and the rapid generation of feathers. Subject resembled a domestic chicken by the end of the process. Experiment 3769-θB Subject: Brown rat (Rattus norvegicus) Number Entered: 50 Rescission time: 4 hours and 41 minutes Results: Subject expanded to nearly five times its original size. The legs of the subject greatly increased in length, and the toes converged into singular hoof like structures. The fur of the subject adopted a pattern of brown vertical stripes. Following the Rescission Event, the subject was recorded running at speeds of over 32 MPH. Experiment 3769-θC Subject: Rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) Number Entered: 50 Rescission time: 4 hours and 19 minutes Results: Subject experienced a disproportionate expansion of the hind limbs, claws, and maxillary canines, as well as a decrease in the length of the tail. All fur on the subject increased in length and darkened in hue. Following the Rescission Event, the subject was observed moving in a manner similar to marsupials of the family Macropodidae (kangaroos). Experiment 3769-θD Subject: Common Octopus (Octopus vulgaris) Number Entered: 200 Rescission time: 11 hours and 16 minutes Results: Subject developed a cartilaginous skeletal structure resembling a spine within each tentacle, as well as an enlarged cranial cavity. The two frontmost tentacles extended in length and each diverged into four flexible secondary appendages. Subject drowned within its aquatic containment tank before the Rescission Event was completed. The subsequent autopsy revealed that the subject’s gills had transformed into primitive lungs. Experiment 3769-θE Subject: D-8897 (Homo sapiens) Number Entered: 10 Rescission time: 1 minute Results: Subject died before undergoing any physical alterations. SCP-3769 ejected itself prematurely upon the death of the subject. Cause of death is unknown. Experiment 3769-θF Subject: D-4272 (Homo sapiens) Number Entered: 1 Rescission time: 1 minute Results: Subject died before undergoing any physical alterations. SCP-3769 ejected itself prematurely upon the death of the subject. Cause of death is unknown. Experiment 3769-θG Subject: D-6502 (Homo sapiens) Number Entered: 0.1 Rescission time: 1 minute Results: Subject died before undergoing any physical alterations. SCP-3769 ejected itself prematurely upon the death of the subject. Cause of death is unknown. Experiment 3769-θH Subject: D-7033 (Homo sapiens) Number Entered: 0.00005 Rescission time: 1 minute Results: Subject died before undergoing any physical alterations. SCP-3769 ejected itself prematurely upon the death of the subject. Cause of death is unknown. Addendum 3769.5: Appeal to The O5 Council The following is an email delivered by Site director Dr. ██████ to the [DATA EXPUNGED] of the O5 council regarding the possibility of an XK-Class End of the World Event. The approval of at least two (2) Level 4 personnel is required in order to access this file. To [DATA EXPUNGED] From: Dr.████ ██████ Subject - Possible XK-Class Event Greetings, Council, Let me begin by saying that I understand the exclusive nature of this method of communication, and that I would not under any circumstances contact you all if I did not have information of the utmost priority. That being said, I believe that some of the data resulting from the Post-F experiments of SCP-3769 may indicate an imminent catastrophe of apocalyptic proportions. Following an attempted experiment on SCP-411, SCP-3769 has essentially reversed in function, altering affected subjects along their line of evolutionary descent rather than ancestry. This has been all but proven by the use of SCP-3769 to transform a dinosaur from a previous SCP-3769 experiment back into a domestic chicken. From this, it can be assumed that all other subjects altered by Post-F experiments have taken on the forms of organisms that have yet to evolve but will eventually. However, all Post-F experiments performed on human subjects have resulted in death within a minute of SCP-3769 contact, with no noticeable alterations taking place. This occurred even when the value 0.0005, shown to be equivalent to approximately one generation in previous experiments, was entered into SCP-3769. The exact reason for this has not been definitively proven, but given the nature of SCP-3769, I am forced to believe that it may indicate the future extinction of mankind, possibly within our lifetime. I do not know what, if anything, can be done to prevent this outcome. I would recommend that more advanced containment measures be put in place for all Keter SCPs. However, it is not my place to make these decisions. I hope that by alerting you all to this situation appropriate measures can be taken in order to ensure the continuation of our species.

SCP-3770	safe	An instance of SCP-3770 in containment Item #: SCP-3770 Special Containment Procedures: All SCP-3770 instances are to be kept in separate groups of 2-20. Each group is to be kept in a secure vivarium at least 20cm long, 10cm wide, and with substrate 10cm deep. The substrate is to compose of coconut fibre, decaying deciduous leaf litter, a calcium source such as powdered cuttlefish bone, and small amounts of sand. A small layer of dry leaf litter is to be provided above the substrate. Under no circumstances is pine to be used in SCP-3770 containment chambers. The vivarium is to be kept at a temperature of 22-24 degrees celsius and have a humidity of 60-80%. No sudden changes in climate are to take place. Each vivarium is to be kept in a room with a light source activated by solar power, as to replicate natural lighting. If an SCP-3770 instance shows any sign of molting, caution is to be held due to the vulnerability of instances during the process, and the substrate is not to be replaced unless in emergency. No pesticides are to be present in SCP-3770 containment chambers. All materials introduced to SCP-3770 instances are to be organic. Fresh fruit and vegetables are to be given to each group on a weekly basis, being left for two days prior to removal. Description: SCP-3770 is the designation given to an anomalous subspecies of Centrobolus Splendidus1. SCP-3770 instances are capable of communication through auditory means at high frequency with all species of arthropod capable of processing signals sent. Audio does not affect any known vertebrate or invertebrate which is not a terrestrial arthropod. All invertebrates which receive communications from SCP-3770 instances display abnormal behaviour, showing higher intelligence and extreme co-operative ability (see testing logs for more details). SCP-3770 will occasionally display a behaviour known as a "3770 1A event", in which instances will begin to chew wood pulp2 into a paper-like material. Instances then consume any brightly coloured, white, and black substance possible. The materials will be secreted through the anus as dye to the paper. The paper will then be fashioned into a square shape by use of instances' mandibles. Images formed through use of the dyes generally resemble images of invertebrates, deciduous forests, in a style associated with Byzantine religious artwork. Images contain text of unknown origin. Similar to the defence mechanism of most Diplopoda, SCP-3770 will secrete an irritating liquid. SCP-3770, however, constantly secrete said liquid. Although this has the chemical makeup of ordinary Centrobolus Splendidus secretion, if it comes into physical contact with any form of sapient life, severe visual hallucinations occur. + Testing Logs A-E - Hide Several experiments have been conducted exploring the anomalous effects of SCP-3770. These are recorded below. Test A - 27/07/2017 Procedure: To place an instance of SCP-3770 within a vivarium containing an individual Scolopendra Subspinipes Dehaani3 (SSD-0001-D) for 1 week. Results: The SCP-3770 instance was not harmed. SSD-0001-D began to construct a model resembling a coccinellid using moist substrate. Analysis: SCP-3770's effects are capable of supressing predatory instincts. Test B- 29/07/2017 Procedure: To insert an auditory arthropod (a Gromphadorhina portentosa4 designated GP-0001-D) within an SCP-3770 containment unit containing 15 individual SCP-3770 instances. Results: GP-0001-D showed abnormal behaviour, occasionally placing each end of its upper 2 legs together, whilst using the lower pairs to balance upright. Whilst doing so, GP-0001-D began to create loud respiratory "hisses" (as is common in the species) at short intervals translated to Latin morse code. Lines commonly repeated by GP-0001-D include: "Forgive my soul, oh lord, forgive me and forgive all of your other children." "By the grace of all the legs that you, oh dear and righteous god, have used to create our precious bodies, I thank you with all my open circulatory system." "I hope that one day I will join my brothers with you, oh father, my lord, at the completion of the promised land. Show me the way to devote my humble life as did your 87 saints, oh lord." Analysis: SCP-3770's effects can radically heighten intelligence. Test C - 30/07/2017 Procedure: To introduce an SCP-3770 instance to an individual Argiope bruennichi5 (AB-0001-D) . Results: AL-0001-D began constructing a line of Latin text by producing abnormally patterned web. This translated to: "We fly with our father, we ride through the moon, the sky, the stars. Now by miracle we may see him again. Our father, the promised land." Analysis: SCP-3770's effects can be utilised for a large range of species. Further research on the meaning of material produced is to be conducted. Test D - 30/07/2017 Procedure: To introduce an SCP-3770 instance to a colony of Camponotus Pennsylvanicus6 (CPC-0435), whilst providing the colony with a sheet of ply wood. Results: CPC-0435 engraved an image of what appeared to be multiple stellar formations, and planets such as "Venus", "Mars", "Jupiter", and "Saturn". A large coccinellid was in the place of Earth, bearing what appeared to be a "halo" above its head. This was created in similar fashion to images produced during 3770 1A events. Analysis: Further research on the meaning of imagery and text produced by SCP-3770 is to be conducted. Test E - 31/07/2017 Subject: Dr. Telford Procedure: In order to study the hallucinogenic effects of SCP-3770, the subject will induce SCP-3770's effects and record what is visually experienced. Results: See Document-3770-E for a log of recorded information provided by Dr. Telford. Analysis: See Document-3770-E for details. Further research involving SCP-2794 is to be conducted in conjunction with MTF Mu-77. + Document-3770-E - Hide During test E, Dr. Telford, a member of MTF Mu-77's research personnel, documented his experience on audio after contacting SCP-3770's secretion. Dr. Telford: Visual hallucination has begun, recording has started, commencing test. Initial image is of what appears to be a swampland environment, very fertile and abundant in life. I see a large amount of flying insects, various arthropods on the ground, and no birds in the sky, which is a dark shade of green. The area overall is dark and verdant. [Dr. Telford begins to walk around the testing area] Dr. Telford: There's a warmth pulsating from the ground, and a faint throbbing? Heartbeats, but not mine. I see something in the sky- I thought it was a faint cloud at first but now some mist has cleared, I am relatively close to the planet Jupiter. [Dr. Telford crouches down] Dr. Telford: The floor is moist and warm. Everywhere is so humid and abundant with life, but yet no birds, mammals, reptiles, fish, amphibians, nothing. Just bugs it seems. They all seem so healthy, the fertile landscape must be providing food. I can see predatory animals, giant centipedes and scorpions, all eating this green fungus-like material along with isopods, caterpillars, and others. Curious. [long pause] Dr. Telford: Burrows and nests are everywhere. This fungus is all around me in the ground. It seems to be sprouting from this green organic waste-like material. Curious, it's as solid as rock, must be the base of whatever I'm on. It's so tough, yet plant life is growing from it. [Dr. Telford looks up with a surprised expression] Dr. Telford: I can see it now, I thought it was just part of the atmosphere but it's a body. I'm on a leg, miles wide, hundreds of miles long. That's a body, a ladybird? And what I'm standing on, this hard green rock? That's what this thing is made of. It reminds me of something. [Dr. Telford breathes heavily] Dr. Telford: There are these pyramids of that green stuff, full of ladybirds and millipedes being shot off into space. They're just being launched from the body of this creature. I can see it, they're boarding them and they are just thrusting away. SCP-3770 and SCP-2794. I can't believe it. [pause] Dr. Telford: I-I see more of them in the distance, green with bright white spots. More ladybirds- or planets. They are everywhere now, like a swarm… There's a sign in the rock. It's translucent, I can make out the writing. "Testing Zone 02: Site-94". Oh my word. [hallucination ends] Footnotes 1.

SCP-3771	safe	Item #: SCP-3771 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3771 is to be monitored through a live video feed at all times. In addition, two guards are to be posted at the entrance of SCP-3771 to prevent civilian access. Should any civilians attempt to enter SCP-3771, they are to be turned away politely, only using force should they attempt to enter regardless. Should Foundation personnel wish to eat any food from SCP-3771, they are to not eat any menu items that the Foundation deems potentially lethal. Description: SCP-3771 is a restaurant located in ████████, Hawai'i known as "Burger Island". Subjects who enter SCP-3771 are typically greeted by the restaurant's owner, a Polynesian woman aged 58 years old by the name of A█████ Bueno (designated PoI-273.) Should a subject request to dine at SCP-3771, PoI-273 will escort them to a table and hand them a menu (See Table below) with various food items for order. No prices are listed for any items on the menu. No other employees have been seen at SCP-3771, but despite this, all food ordered will be given to the customer approximately 10 minutes after ordering. While any food served visually appears to be what the subject ordered, consumption of the food results in the food transforming into a different and objectively healthier food related to what was consumed. Food ordered cannot be removed from the perimeter of SCP-3771, as any attempt to exit SCP-3771 while in possession of uneaten food will cause the food to disintegrate. Leaving without ordering any food will not have any adverse effects. Below is a list of select menu items and their effects. Menu Item Transformation Notes The Hawaiian Dream Burger, a beef patty topped with rum-cooked pineapple rings, American cheese, barbecue sauce and onions. Served on a sesame seed bun. Upon consumption, a whole pineapple forms in place of the food consumed. Typical result after consumption is death due to internal bleeding. The Chutney Burger, a ground pork patty topped with papaya chutney, red peppers, onions and a lime-infused mayonnaise. Served on a sesame seed bun. Upon consumption, a papaya puree forms in place of the food consumed. Subjects feel discomfort at the immediate liquidation of the food as it digests. The Hawaiian Sunset Wings, a plate of bone-in chicken wings coated in a sauce consisting of soy sauce, ketchup and pineapple juice. Upon consumption of each individual wing, a portion of chicken breast replaces the food consumed. Has caused choking, however the entire meal can be consumed without death. Sweet Potato Fries, deep fried sticks of sweet potatoes tossed with salt. Served with ketchup. Upon consumption, each fry loses any salt and oil content. If it was consumed with ketchup, the ketchup evaporates. Subjects report a loss of most of the flavor in the food, however report little problems in the consumption itself. A Standard Margarita, made with two ounces of tequila, one ounce of Cointreau and one ounce of lime juice. Served in a glass with a salt rim. Upon consumption, all alcohol content is removed from the drink. Subjects reported experiencing no difference aside from the lack of inebriation. Addendum: Below is an interview with PoI-273, conducted by Agent Willamette Cooper on 9/28/████. <Begin Log> Agent Cooper is seated in a booth located on the eastern side of SCP-3771. PoI-273 hands her a menu and begins to leave. Agent Cooper: Um, miss, I actually already know what I would like to order. PoI-273: Oh! You certainly decide quick, don't you? Well, what would you like, then? PoI-273 takes a pad of paper from her pocket and prepares to write. Agent Cooper: Well, I actually have a few questions, first. Just, just to be sure I get what I want to order. PoI-273: Oh, certainly! Anything that could make your time here more enjoyable. Agent Cooper: Well, ah, I heard that eating a few things on this menu can cause some, ah, adverse effects. Do you know anything about this? PoI-273 snorts. PoI-273: Adverse? As if anything I make doesn't help people out for the better. People love my food! Agent Cooper: So you know about how people here die sometimes after eating here? Particularly from food suddenly appearing in place of what you served them? PoI-273: Oh, some recipes are a bit old, but I don't have the heart to remove them. I've been running this place for years, I don't intend to suddenly change the menu and confuse the regulars. Note: No other customers other than Foundation personnel have been seen in SCP-3771. Agent Cooper: So it's on purpose? What possible reason would you have to make food that kills people? PoI-273: Oh, I don't make food that kills people, it's those dirty, greasy fast food places that are killing people! So often are people subjected to eating cheap, unhealthy food that just makes them fatter and fatter while the price of healthy food is jacked up to kingdom come! It's why everything I offer here is organic, locally-grown, and of course, free! Agent Cooper: But you serve people burgers and alcohol and chicken wings? PoI-273: Well, when people are so used to eating the unhealthy stuff, sometimes people need to ease into the good stuff! It's like taking a pill with a glass of water; it just makes it easier to go down. Agent Cooper: This whole thing, this whole restaurant is just a health joint in disguise? PoI-273: You say that like it's a bad thing! Everyone deserves to be healthy at a good price. Now, are you going to order anything? Agent Cooper looks back down at her menu. Agent Cooper: Which of these are newer recipes? Extraneous dialogue expunged. <End Log> ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3771" by OthellotheCat, from the SCP Wiki. Source: https://scpwiki.com/scp-3771.

Thanks to Omino for sensitivity reading. Item #: SCP-3772 Special Containment Procedures: As SCP-3772 is considered dormant, and can be easily disregarded as non-anomalous, containment focuses on suppression of discussion surrounding its method of distribution. Contacts in all major media-sharing platforms are working alongside the Foundation to assist with pre-emptive removal of media meeting SCP-3772's parameters, under the guide of content-protection rules. Description: SCP-3772 is a phenomenon whereby internet content meeting certain criteria will convert to a video or infographic relating to the death of Faith Bassen in 2020. This conversion only affects end-user machines, and does not alter the media for others who have not triggered the phenomenon. Testing has identified the following as the primary parameters to convert media: The content is not owned/created by the user who posted it. A caption of or within the content alludes to a desire to discover the content's creator, whether or not said desire can be judged to be genuine (For instance, "OMG who did this??? So talented 😍"). Secondary factors which are not required but seem to increase the likelihood of SCP-3772 occurring: Artist/creator signatures and watermarks have been removed from the content. The account posting the content has posted other media which matches the primary parameters. The machine viewing the content is on US geopolitical territory. This factor increases exponentially as the machine approaches the census-designated place of Comfort, Texas1. Most commonly, SCP-3772 manifests as a static image of Faith Bassen with captioning providing details of her disappearance and the discovery of her body, with a strong focus on the lack of an official investigation by the local police force. When manifesting in video form, this information will commonly give way to phone camera recordings of Faith, with the names and faces of others appearing in the footage digitally censored. This footage is interspersed with graphic and provocative descriptions of her injuries, threats towards the perpetrators and the repeated line "FAITH BASSEN WAS MURDERED", which doubled as a hashtag for the movement to press the local police force to investigate the death. The first known instance of SCP-3772 came to the Foundation's attention on December 8th, 2020, two months after the death of Ms. Bassen. After confirmation of anomalous nature, initial containment focused on suppression of discussion and investigation of SCP-3772's trigger parameters. While this was successful in most cases, the prevalence of instances in the vicinity of Comfort, Texas, lead to strong local awareness of the case. As SCP-3772 was assumed by the public of Comfort to be the product of non-anomalous activity, priority was given to continued suppression of media attention outside this area. In January 2021, the Unusual Incidents Unit took over management of the investigation at the Foundation's request. With their input, the suspects in the Faith Bassen case were successfully identified and brought to accelerated trial between May and July 2021. Following this, the incident rate of SCP-3772 manifestations dropped almost completely. Addendum: Chatlogs Analysis of existing archived chatlogs for GoI-5869 ("Gamers Against Weed") show a number of conversations related to this issue, primarily involving the users warysue and tiedyeduck in a sidechat labelled #wip. As chatlogs are only available from the laptop of a member of the GoI who had little interaction with warysue, the majority of these conversations are contextless or incomplete. Excerpt 1: November 17th, 2020 -> you joined gaycopmp4: that all sounds doable yeah but we'll need to work on the specific vids you wanna include bluntfiend: You're really going for this, huh? -> Quavo joined warysue: we are . It's Important Quavo: glah gaycopmp4: strip out identifiers etc we don't want people complaining you're spreading their image gaycopmp4: we'll leave 4chamber's in obv warysue: just call her Faith . not warysue: not like her privacy matters now <- Quavo left tiedyeduck: Can I just go on the record as very fucking against this warysue: Fuck You bluntfiend: I'm inclined toward tiedye- Whoah ok. warysue: she's dead and I'm the Only One trying to do something about it tiedyeduck: I was going to elucidate my point but if you're going to be like this it'd be futile warysue: and gcm . bluntfiend: Ok, listen up. bones: I'm going to preemptively ask that you move this conversation to PMs. Warysue, while I understand your pain, it would serve you well to give benefit of the doubt in this context. bluntfiend: Never mind, bones is on it. warysue: noted, and Fuck that warysue: gaycopmp4: lemme know on the discord if you've warysue: got more questions . I'll work on fuzzing out faces And Shit <- warysue left tiedyeduck: Look, I'm not saying the idea is fundamentally bad, but the execution you're discussing is just crass. gaycopmp4: she's gone tiedyeduck: yeah tiedyeduck: :/ bones: She is grieving a close friend. Her behavior may be more extreme for a time, but remember that she is working through a trauma. I believe you know what that feels like. tiedyeduck: We all do, bones. tiedyeduck: This is gonna be a clusterfuck, isn't it?

border-image-width: 6; padding: 2vw; } Item #: SCP-3773 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3773-14 is contained in a small animal containment cell on sub-level 13 of Site-87. Enrichment activities with SCP-3773-14 are to be carried out by containment staff at least three times per day. SCP-3773-14's diet does not differ substantially from a non-anomalous feline's; however, all manifestations of SCP-3773-14 are lactose intolerant. Outside materials, such as pet brushes and toys, are to be fully decontaminated prior to their introduction to SCP-3773-14, to prevent a possible repeat of incident 3773-13. In the event of SCP-3773-14's death, SCP-3773 is to be kept in storage for no more than sixty days; a new cat is to be introduced to SCP-3773 and designated SCP-3773-15, with the containment procedures appropriately updated when SCP-3773's anomalous effects manifest. Description: SCP-3773 is a collar made of linen rope. Chemical analysis of SCP-3773 has shown that the fibers of linen contain hairs from at least 200 distinct domesticated felines; the oldest specimen of hair identified dates to approximately 2025BCE. A pair of brass clasps have been added to SCP-3773, possibly due to the wear of the original binding mechanism. SCP-3773 exhibits a mild cognitohazard; if an individual interacts with SCP-3773 with the intent to destroy it, they will place it down on the nearest safe surface and disregard it until they are out of sight of SCP-3773. SCP-3773's anomalous properties manifest when it is affixed to the neck of a member of the species Felis catus, designated SCP-3773-#. SCP-3773 cannot be removed until the death of the SCP-3773-# instance, and its dimensions will grow and shrink so that SCP-3773 is always fit close to the skin of the SCP-3773-# instance, without causing discomfort. The SCP-3773-# instance will begin to show biological changes consistent with felines that have worn SCP-3773 in the past whose DNA has come into contact with SCP-3773.1 It is estimated that SCP-3773 can 'store' the biological information of at least eighteen different cats at a time. SCP-3773-# instances show a capability to alter themselves to have traits of several different felines, seemingly at will. Fur color, eye color, length and presence of a tail, and biological sex are all variable in SCP-3773-# instances; however, all instances of SCP-3773-# are uniformly lactose intolerant, even if the felines SCP-3773-# takes the form of were not. These shifts in form are accompanied by changes in behavior, including preference in food, changes in responses to stimuli such as petting and high-pitched noises, and responding to different names. Litters birthed by SCP-3773-# will have offspring genetically identical to felines currently 'stored' in SCP-3773. The default 'form' of SCP-3773-# instances seems to be a chimeric mixture of all genetic information currently present in SCP-3773; fur will often appear to be in a patchwork pattern, eye colors are often heterochromatic, and in some cases, several tails, all functional, can appear. Addendum: Incident 3773-13: Dr. Cassandra Pike, a parazoologist at Site-87, was given permission to bring items that belonged to her cat for the purposes of enriching SCP-3773-14, including a hairbrush, toy mice, and a 'dingle ball'. Dr. Pike's cat died in August 2015 under unknown circumstances. Dr. Pike was allowed to interact with SCP-3773-14 for the purposes of studying behavior. In January of 2016, the following audio was recorded in Site-87's containment wing: Dr. Jacob Kola: Hey, Cassie. Here to play with Mongrel?2 Dr. Cassandra Pike: Today's my last day with them, actually— for a while, at least. Flying out to Oregon to help Dr. Hendricks get acclimated with his new job. Dr. Kola: Go right in. (Sound of a buzzer, followed by the containment airlock opening, followed by approximately seventy seconds of silence, before in-cell intercom is buzzed.) Dr. Pike: Jake, you have to see this, right now. Dr. Kola: What's the matter? Dr. Pike: 3773-14, Mongrel, whatever you want to call it… it looks just like my cat. My dead cat. (Dr. Pike sounds shaken) It looks just like Oliver. Sounds like him, too. Dr. Kola: That's impossible. Your cat was never in contact with 3773, it couldn't have gotten its genetic signature. Dr. Pike: Then why… why does it look like my cat? What the fuck? Dr. Kola: There have to be millions of tortoiseshell cats out there, Cassandra. Calm down. (Several seconds of silence) Dr. Pike: How physically detailed are the things that 3773 makes? Dr. Kola: Why do you ask? Dr. Pike: Oliver had a rib that never healed right when I got him; some jackass kicked him or something. Made a big bump in his right side, under the skin. I want to see if it's there. Dr. Kola: Go ahead. Dr. Pike: Hey, hey Ollie. Oliver. Come here, Ollie. Oh my god, Jake, it came when I called his name. Come here, come to momma, come here… (Ten seconds of nonsensical noises from Dr. Pike, showing affection to SCP-3773-14, before ceasing suddenly) Dr. Pike: Oh my god. It's there. The bump's there. His little broken rib. (Dr. Pike begins crying.) What the hell, Jake. What the hell. Subsequent testing showed that exposure to any feline DNA, not necessarily felines that have worn SCP-3773, has a potential chance of SCP-3773 cataloging it. To date, three felines have been cataloged in SCP-3773 in this manner, including Dr. Pike's own cat. Addendum: Following Dr. Pike's return from Oregon in February 2016, her work with SCP-3773-14 resumed. SCP-3773-14 would often take the form of Dr. Pike's deceased cat, much to her distress. For the purposes of this document, this form of SCP-3773-14 is designated SCP-3773-14A. Dr. Pike requested a full-time assignment to SCP-3773-14's research staff for a period of three months, suspending two other non time-sensitive projects. This request was approved by Dr. Adam Larrsenn, current head of cryptozoological and parazoological studies at Site-87. However, Dr. Pike's behavior turned highly abnormal after one week of study; Dr. Pike spent increasing amounts of time with SCP-3773-14, and at one point, fell asleep in SCP-3773-14's cell, risking the containment of two other anomalous items stored on the same level. For this, Dr. Pike was reprimanded, but did not have her clearance rescinded. The following conversation is recorded to have taken place between Dr. Pike and her significant other, Dr. Claude Mattings, at 1:12 AM on March 19th, 2016: Dr. Mattings: Cassandra, where are you going? It's the middle of the night. Dr. Pike: I'm just going out to the Meijer.3 I have a craving for Twinkies, and they're the only place in town that's open this late. Dr. Mattings: Going to the grocery store doesn't require a security pass, Cass. Dr. Pike: Signing out with the night receptionist does. Dr. Mattings:…the elevator to the surface is that way. You're heading down to containment again, aren't you? Dr. Pike: What the hell do you want from me, Claude? That's my cat down there. You remember what I did when he died. He was the only good thing in my life for a long time, and… I have a chance to see him again. To say goodbye. Dr. Mattings: What do I want from you? I want you to get to the infirmary ASAP. You've clearly been affected by something. Dr. Pike: What do you mean? Dr. Mattings: This obsession you have, this worship of something that looks like your dead cat… it's not natural, hon. I think you've been whammied.4 Dr. Pike: I haven't been whammied, Claude. You know what one looks like. It doesn't look like this! I… I just want to say goodbye to Ollie. Okay? That's all. Dr. Mattings: There's an easy way to test it, then. Five words. Dr. Pike: Seriously? Fine, say them. Dr. Mattings: Does the Black Moon howl? At this point, Dr. Pike's vocal patterns radically change, and the recording picks up the presence of metal shaking against metal in a musical manner. Dr. Pike: It never stopped the sun from smiling. She wore a smile to rival its brightness before her beloved passed into the Duat, but her heart grew heavy and hardened. She deserves another chance to say goodbye, just as you gave her another chance. Dr. Mattings: What. The. Fuck? Dr. Pike's vocal patterns return to normal, and she appears ignorant of the above. Dr. Pike: Satisfied? Dr. Mattings runs for the security alarm and summons agents to Dr. Pike's location. Following this, Dr. Pike was restricted to a low-level humanoid containment cell for a period of at least three months as an anti-cognitohazardous treatment was developed for SCP-3773's anomaly. Dr. Pike's security clearance for SCP-3773 has been rescinded. Addendum: Interview with Dr. Pike: The following interview was conducted one month into Dr. Pike's isolation for cognitohazard treatment. Dr. West: Dr. Harold West, beginning interview with Cassandra Pike. Cognitohazard test. Does the Black Moon howl? Dr. Pike: It never stopped the sun from smiling.5 Dr. West: Cognitohazard still present. According to Dr. Breaker, that response is consistent with a cognitohazard originating from Egypt, last seen in— Dr. Pike: (Sighing) This is all over a cat. Dr. West: Pardon? Dr. Pike: All I wanted to do was… tell what was the one good thing in my life for a good five years that I loved him. Dr. West: I can arrange for Dr. Mattings to visit. Dr. Pike: (Laughs) I mean other than him! He… when I came to Sloth's Pit, this site, do you remember what happened? Dr. West: The Cold Storage incident. Everyone remembers. Dr. Pike: When I was holed up at home trying to recover, when the site was being repaired, I kept seeing this cat in my backyard. He kept on coming to the door, asking for food, begging like Oliver Twist. He always wanted more. He came into my room one day, and… he just stayed. Then… Oliver just vanished one day. I let him out, and he never came back. I found him in some hedges a few days later, and… (Dr. Pike's voice grows tense) God, Harry, I'm a wreck. Dr. West: Have you been taking your medication? Dr. Pike: Daily. They're giving me too big of a dose; can you see about adjusting it? I'm supposed to take half of what I get, and they keep urging me to take the whole thing. Dr. West: Of course, Cassandra. (Dr. West stays silent for several seconds, before sighing) Speaking candidly? Everyone knows everyone here. And most of us are concerned about you, and what's going on. 3773 is one of the few items here that's a proper skip, and to see it affect a researcher like this… Dr. Pike: What if there's no hazard? Dr. West: The Five-Word Test disproves that quite soundly. It's a near-failproof cognitohazard detection meme. Dr. Pike: You heard the recording. Did that sound like me? (Dr. Pike pauses.) I think I got whammied, but not in the cognitohazard way. I think that something messed with me to get me in here. Dr. West: Why would this force have a motive to do that? Dr. Pike: …because it wants me to be alone. So I can finally do what I want. Following this, Dr. Pike became unresponsive to questions. Dr. West concluded the interview. Addendum: Video Log: The following is a transcript of a video recording taken in Dr. Pike's observation cell on June 3rd, 2016. 22:05: Camera malfunction. Video restored three minutes later. Audio unavailable for the duration. 22:08: Dr. Pike stirs in her sleep, and sits up to face the door to her chamber. 22:09: Door to the containment chamber opens into a white light. The exterior cameras of Dr. Pike's cell show the door closed. 22:11: A pair of felines emerge from the light; one of them resembles SCP-3773-14A, the other is an unknown entity resembling a black house cat with a tail approximately .5 meters long, a golden mask on its face, and luminescent eyes. Video resolution is poor, but the latter entity appears to be wearing SCP-3773, while the former is not. 22:12: SCP-3773-14A jumps on Dr. Pike's bed and begins interacting with her affectionately. Dr. Pike is seen to be crying and hugging SCP-3773-14A. Dr. Pike appears to be addressing the unknown 3773-# entity. 22:30: Between the two timestamps, Dr. Pike and SCP-3773-14A are seen interacting and playing, with the unknown 3773-# entity producing strands of rope and balls from behind itself for SCP-3773-14A and Dr. Pike to play with. At 22:30, SCP-3773-14A jumps off of Dr. Pike, and makes it way to the door. Dr. Pike walks after it, picking it up and kissing it on the forehead. 22:34: Both SCP-3773-14A and the unknown SCP-3773-# entity depart, with the door closing behind them. Dr. Pike returns to her bed and sleeps, and is seen holding something in her left hand. Upon review of the footage the next morning, footage SCP-3773-14's cell was inspected, and showed it sleeping in the corner of its cell. Following this incident, SCP-3773-14 has not assumed the form of Dr. Pike's former cat. Dr. Pike herself was interviewed by a member of site security following this: Agent Nicholas Ewell: Do you remember this incident? Dr. Pike: …I remember it, but I can't believe it happened. Then I woke up with you all at my door and cat hair on my clothes. Agent Ewell: Does the Black Moon howl? Dr. Pike: [DATA EXPUNGED] Agent Ewell: Cognitohazard seems to be absent, if it was there in the first place; we're still going to keep you under observation for the duration. Do you know what this… entity that was with your cat was? Dr. Pike: …I think I have some idea, but you're going to have to run it by the mythology department on sublevel 5 for me to be positive. She kept on making toys for me to play with him; she even gave me one of his favorite balls. I actually managed to say goodbye to him. Do you know how good closure feels, Agent Ewell? Agent Ewell: No comment. Dr. Pike: It felt good. Oliver's not the first cat I had, but he's probably one of the best. I was… kind of lost, between losing him and my tiff with Claude; now, I feel like I can take on anything. Agent Ewell: Let's start with you taking on counseling. After observation is done and we're sure that the… for the sake of simplicity, the cognitohazard is out of your system, you're on psych leave, three months, by order of Director Weiss. You're not to come back to this zip code for any reason barring a major emergency until then. You have family? Dr. Pike: Parents and brother in Ohio. Agent Ewell: Good opportunity to visit them. You're gonna need to sign a memetic geas, of course. Dr. Pike: Gag order. Right, can't blab to the folks. (Dr. Pike clears her throat.) Is that everything? Agent Ewell: One last thing; the video showed you holding something in your hand when you went to sleep. What was it? Dr. Pike: I have it right here, one moment. SCP-3773-A designates a non-anomalous leather collar with a breakaway fastener, intended to be worn by housecats. A brass name plate reading Ubaste is affixed to it. Footnotes 1. See incident 3773-13 2. A nickname given to SCP-3773-14 by containment staff. 3. A chain of supercenter stores exclusively located in the Midwestern United States. 4.

SCP-3774	neutralized	Item #: SCP-3774 Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-3774 have been located and terminated. Any backup blueprints or files detailing the creation of additional instances of SCP-3774 have been deleted or destroyed, only saving the original copies for file storage. Description: SCP-3774 was a prototype for a genetically and cybernetically modified subspecies of mosquito initially created by the Foundation to covertly survey Persons of Interest. Instances of SCP-3774 were bred to pass bio-engineered augmentations onto their offspring, as well as produce a successive generation of 90% female individuals.1 The augmentations themself granted instances of SCP-3774 the following properties: Photo recognition Live video and audio broadcasting Access of a self-contained genetic database Emission of a signal that would show its Global Positioning Location Instances of SCP-3774, when shown an image of a human subject, were intended to seek out the subject covertly. It would then use its proboscis on a human subject it believed to be a match to the subject shown and consume a small portion of its blood to analyze for a genetic match. Once a genetic match was found, the instance of SCP-3774 was intended to remain within proximity of the subject, broadcasting live video and audio feed of the subject until the Foundation retrieved the subject. While most tests with instances of SCP-3774 proved positive, the introduction of adaptive vocalization2 to them caused an unknown error to occur. When an instance of SCP-3774 consumes the blood of a subject, regardless of whether or not it is a genetic match to the subject it is intending to find, it attempts to communicate with it, often expressing infatuation. In most cases, instances of SCP-3774 have tried to court subjects, with primarily negative results. Once this error became known to the Foundation, all instances were located and recalled, where they were studied in an attempt to repair the malfunction. After further trials, the error itself was discovered to be unfixable, and all instances were promptly terminated. Any video logs recorded by the instances have been stored for research purposes. ENTER LEVEL-3774-3 CREDENTIALS TO ACCESS ACCESS GRANTED Below is a series of select video logs recorded by SCP-3774-2432 after locating a subject believed to be PoI-███, however it was later determined to be a false match. The following events have proven to be a rare case, only occurring in two other occasions. <Begin Video Log 3774-01> SCP-3774-2432's camera view is apparently from the top of the subject's bookcase. SCP-3774-2432's camera displays the subject lying on his bed, awake. The room the subject is located in is poorly lit. SCP-3774-2432: Hello? The subject quickly sits up in his bed and looks around the room, apparently panicked. Subject: Is someone there? SCP-3774-2432: Yes! Hello! Subject: Where are you? How'd you get into my house? The subject turns on a lamp on his night stand and stands up from his bed. SCP-3774-2432: I'm… um… I'm a ghost! Subject: Ha ha, very funny. Could you just come out, please? I said please, I'm being polite. SCP-3774-2432: I… I told you! I'm a ghost! Yup! The subject is now searching under his bed. Subject: I'll call the cops if you don't just come out, missy! And I don't want to call the cops! SCP-3774-2432: No, don't! Please, I don't want you to get into any more trouble! There are already people who know I'm here! The subject emerges from underneath his bed and stands up straight. Subject: People who know you're here? What's that supposed to mean? Don't tell me you're an escaped convict or something. SCP-3774-2432: No! God, no, don't worry about that. Just… forget I said anything. Subject: Look, miss, just come on out, and tell me what's going on. SCP-3774-2432: No, I can't! SCP-3774-2432 pauses. Not now, anyway. Silence for five seconds. Subject: Subject sighs. Fine, stay hidden. Could you at least tell me what's happening? If you don't, I will call the cops, I don't care what's going on. SCP-3774-2432: I'm… I'm embarrassed… Subject: Of what? What's so bad that you literally broke into my house? Because it must be pretty awful if that's what it came to. SCP-3774-2432: No, no… no. It's, weird, really. SCP-3774-2432 simulates laughter. Subject: I've heard a lot of weird shit in my day. Salmon clogging up toilets, kids getting stuck in dumpsters, all sorts of nonsense. I doubt what you have to say is going to be weirder than a salmon in a toilet. Silence for four seconds. SCP-3774-2432: Well.. I work for… god, I shouldn't even be telling you this. Subject: Work for what? Are you a spy? Are you spying on me? SCP-3774-2432: No! Well, not at first. I was meant to find some big scary guy that worked for this other organization, but like… I confused him with you. Subject: Jesus fucking christ, you're a spy?! SCP-3774-2432: I'm not spying on you! Subject: Then come on out and show me your face if you're not spying on me! SCP-3774-2432: I told you I can't come out! I'm… I'm doing this remotely! With microscopic drones! Subject: Then cut whatever signal you have, then! If I'm not the guy you're looking for, get out of my house! Please! I just want a good night's sleep for once! SCP-3774-2432: I… okay. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you. SCP-3774-2432's view shows it leaving through a window and landing outside on the windowsill. As it turns back towards the window, it shows the subject, still standing and shouting, telling SCP-3774-2432 to leave. After approximately six minutes, the subject gets back into his bed and turns off his lamp. SCP-3774-2432: God dammit… God, why did I have to be so creepy? Why did I have to just screw it up this fast? SCP-3774-2432 is silent for approximately four seconds. SCP-3774-2432: I just wanted to get to know him… The subject apparently falls asleep one hour later. At this time, SCP-3774-2432 re-enters the building and lands on the night stand, facing the subject. SCP-3774-2432: SCP-3774-2432 speaks aloud in a hushed tone. I'll try harder next time. I'm sorry. SCP-3774-2432's camera view shows it flying up towards the subject's bookshelf and landing, then turning to face the subject once again. Extraneous footage expunged. <Begin Video Log 3774-04> SCP-3774-2432's camera view shows the subject entering their house through the front door. SCP-3774-2432 is apparently on a light fixture. SCP-3774-2432: H… Hi again! Subject: What?! Subject looks visibly distressed. SCP-3774-2432: No, don't worry! It's just me! Subject: Who? Subject pauses for three seconds. Wait, no no no no no, you were supposed to leave me alone! I got nothing worth spying on! I'm a janitor at an elementary school! I got nothing! SCP-3774-2432: You're a janitor? You help people keep things clean? Subject: Yes! Just a janitor! Not a shady janitor that works at some sort of spooky government organization, just a normal-ass janitor! SCP-3774-2432: I heard you, I heard you. That's really kind of you, actually! At least, I think so. Being helpful to all of those kids and teachers and such. Subject: Wha— um… Thank you… Wait, you still need to get out of my house! SCP-3774-2432: I'm… God, I guess I need to say it out loud now, don't I? Jeez my heart is pounding so fast, um… Subject: What are you going on about? SCP-3774-2432: I'm… not here to spy on you… I just really want to get… to… SCP-3774-2432 pauses for three seconds. I really want to get to know you, okay?! Silence for five seconds. SCP-3774-2432: God, I knew that would sound weird, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll just leave, you're right. Subject: Wait, you just wanted to get to know me? SCP-3774-2432: Yeah… Subject: But… you work for some big government, don't you? Couldn't you just look me up? Why go through all this song and dance? SCP-3774-2432: Because I'm not supposed to be getting to know you. I'm supposed to be finding some other guy, but… I just really wanted to get to know you a little better. Subject: You wanted to get to know me better? Me? You realize who you're talking to, right? SCP-3774-2432: I mean, that's what I want to find out, really. Subject: Uh… hm… Subject pauses for five seconds. Alright. Fine. But you have to let me get to know you, too. You know where my house is, just… I don't know, come here in person, let me see you face to face. SCP-3774-2432: NO! I mean… no. Not yet. I'm too embarrassed. Subject: Christ, okay! Could you at least tell me your name? SCP-3774-2432: I… I haven't got a name. I was just called 2432 all my life. Subject: Oh great, the kind of shady organization that raises spies as kids and doesn't give them a real life. Wonderful. Well, what do you WANT to be called, then? Because I don't intend to call you 2432. SCP-3774-2432: Um… I don't know. What's a good name? Subject: Christ, you're making me choose for you? Hm… Well, you sound a lot like Leslie Caron. How does Leslie sound? Or Les? SCP-3774-2432: Who's Leslie Caron? Subject: She's an actress. She's older now, but in her hey-day, MAN was she a catch. Starred in "An American In Paris". One of my favorite movies, let me tell you. SCP-3774-2432: Oh, okay! Leslie sounds nice then! Subject: Alright, now we're getting somewhere. Nice to meet you, Leslie. I'm Merle. SCP-3774-2432: Nice to meet you too, Merle. Extraneous footage expunged. <Begin Video Log 3774-14> SCP-3774-2432's camera view shows the subject eating a microwaved dinner while watching the 2012 film adaptation of "Les Miserables". The subject is sitting on a reclining chair in what appears to be his living room. SCP-3774-2432's view is apparently on the arm rest on a separate reclining chair. Subject: Now, I don't know what you can see right now, but you'd better pay close attention to this part. This part with Eponine always makes me tear up a little, and I expect you to tear up here, too. SCP-3774-2432: Okay! SCP-3774-2432's camera view changes to exclusively the television screen the film is playing on. The camera shows Eponine3 singing to Marius4 as she dies from a gunshot wound. What appears to be crying is heard from the subject. At this point, SCP-3774-2432's camera views changes back to the subject to visually see him crying. SCP-3774-2432: That was beautiful. Subject: Yeah. Subject inhales sharply. Yeah, it was. SCP-3774-2432: She loved him so much despite him being in love with another, and she still put her life on the line just to keep him safe. Just to keep him happy. It's truly beautiful. Subject: I know. Silence between the subject and SCP-3774-2432 for three minutes while the film continues to play. SCP-3774-2432: Merle? Subject: Yeah, Les? SCP-3774-2432: Has anyone ever cared about you like that before? Subject: What? I… I don't know. I would hope so. I… I really just don't know. I haven't been in many successful relationships so I can't say that for sure, but I would hope at some point at least one of them might have cared about me that way. SCP-3774-2432: I'm sorry, Merle. Subject: Nah… Nah, it's fine. We don't all need to be in… in relationships or happy marriages to live a good, full life. I mean… it'd be nice… but you don't need to. I've gone along just fine without one. SCP-3774-2432: Oh… I guess that's true. I've never been in a relationship either, and I'm apparently doing pretty well. I mean, I've met you, and you've made me the happiest I've ever been. Subject: Subject coughs. Excuse me? SCP-3774-2432: Um… nothing. Nevermind. Subject: What did you mean by that? That I've made you the happiest you've ever been? SCP-3774-2432: It's… Look, I've only known you for a week and a half, but you make me really happy. I love watching movies with you, I love how you just care about the kids you work with, I love just everything about you. But I know that you can't love anything about me back because if you did, then… it wouldn't last. Silence for approximately two minutes. Subject then stands up and turns off the television. Subject: You mean a lot to me too, Les. SCP-3774-2432: You don't have to say that to make me feel better. Subject: I'm not. I haven't even seen your face and I know that you're an incredibly lovely, kind, caring and empathetic person. You choose to be joyful when I want to be sad or upset about something. You always find the goodness in people who see only the worst in themselves. These last few days have been just the best few days I've had in a long time. SCP-3774-2432: You really mean it? Subject: I wouldn't be saying it if I didn't. SCP-3774-2432: SCP-3774-2432 simulates sniffing. Thank you, Merle. Subject: Are you crying? SCP-3774-2432: SCP-3774-2432 simulates laughter. Shut up, it's an emotional moment. Subject: Subject laughs. You're right, you're right. Silence for seven seconds. SCP-3774-2432: So… What does this mean for us? Subject: What do you want it to mean? SCP-3774-2432: Well… I'd like it to mean that we might have one of those useless happy relationships that you mentioned. Subject: That sounds nice. A perfectly useless, happy, wonderful relationship. Extraneous footage expunged. <Begin Video Log 3774-23> SCP-3774-2432's camera view shows the subject pacing in his bedroom. SCP-3774-2432's camera view is from the subject's bookshelf. Subject: Why do you still refuse to show me what you look like? SCP-3774-2432: Because you would hate me if you knew what I looked like! Subject: I don't judge relationships on looks, Les. I don't care if you look like Richard fucking Nixon, I'd still love you for who you are. Could you please just show me something? Come to my house and let me actually physically see you, okay? Or don't, just mail me a picture of what you look like. I just want to know! SCP-3774-2432: But… But why? If looks don't matter, why do you need to see me? Subject: Because I know what catfishing is. Maybe some kid is pulling some sort of prank on me and this whole time my reactions have just been recorded for some prank blog. 'Man falls in love with little boy, watch his face when he finds out!' That'd be the headline. SCP-3774-2432: If I were catfishing you, I wouldn't have dedicated so much of my life to just being with you. Subject: Dedicated so much of your life? We've known each other for three weeks! SCP-3774-2432: And I took two weeks to find you, and I only live for one more after this! Subject: What the fuck? What is that supposed to mean? SCP-3774-2432: It means… it means… Subject: What the fuck kind of organization do you work for? Are you some sort of android? Have I been talking to an AI this whole time? SCP-3774-2432: No! No, not… not an android. Subject: Then what? Who are you? WHAT are you? SCP-3774-2432: I'm… Silence for five seconds. SCP-3774-2432: I'll be right there. Subject: Fine. I'll be waiting. SCP-3774-2432: You won't have to wait long. SCP-3774-2432's camera view shows it flying from the bookshelf and landing on the subject's bed. SCP-3774-2432: I'm on your bed. Be careful. I'm small. Subject: Wait, what? Subject turns around, looking at the bed. Subject: Where are you? SCP-3774-2432: I'm… I'm the mosquito. Subject: The what? Subject continues searching the bed until it looks directly at SCP-3774-2432. Subject: Oh, ha ha. Way to make me feel even worse. SCP-3774-2432: I'm not lying. Subject: You said you were using drones, this is probably just one of those drones, right? You're just trying to trick me? SCP-3774-2432: I'm not trying to trick you! I'm being honest! I'm just a mosquito! I lied about the drones part because I thought it would be more believable than a mosquito that could talk! Subject: Well, you're right. Drones ARE more believable than a mosquito that talks. Prove to me that you're the mosquito. SCP-3774-2432: What do you mean? Subject: I don't know, do something that only a mosquito could do! Bite me, suck some blood out or something! SCP-3774-2432: Um, okay. If you want. SCP-3774-2432's camera view shows it flying towards the subject and landing on his shoulder. It then extends its proboscis and proceeds to bite the subject, consuming some of his blood. SCP-3774-2432: I hope this helps prove something. I don't know what, though. Subject: I… I don't know what it proves either, but… If you really are a mosquito… SCP-3774-2432: I AM a mosquito! Subject: Let me finish, please. SCP-3774-2432: Sorry. Subject: If you really are a mosquito… It still doesn't matter to me. If this is what you are, well, I made a commitment to you. You're still the lovely, kind, caring person that I've been talking to and watching movies with and thinking about while at work. I just have to re-adjust a few fantasies I have about us getting married and having kids in order to accommodate the fact that you're a mosquito. SCP-3774-2432: You're okay with this? With me? Subject: I really did mean it when I said looks didn't matter. Except I did lie about the Richard Nixon part, if you ended up being Richard Nixon that might make things a little weird. SCP-3774-2432: SCP-3774-2432 simulates laughter. That's… That's just so great! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! I'd kiss you if I could but that'd probably just make you itchy! Subject: Subject laughs. That's true! But… why not? You don't have anything to hide anymore, go ahead and kiss me. SCP-3774-2432: Well, okay! SCP-3774-2432 extends its proboscis and bites the subject a second time, consuming more blood. Extraneous footage expunged. <Begin Video Log 3774-30> SCP-3774-2432's camera is disabled for reasons currently unknown. The entirety of the log is audio exclusive. The sound of a door opening is heard. Subject: Hey Les, I'm back! Silence for approximately three minutes. Subject: Leslie? Silence for approximately 20 seconds. Subject: Leslie? Are you still here? SCP-3774-2432: Y-yes. Subject: Leslie? Where are you? SCP-3774-2432: I… don't… know… Subject: What do you mean you don't know? Are you trapped somewhere? SCP-3774-2432: I… don't… know… Subject: Oh God… Wait, has it been a week already? SCP-3774-2432: I… don't… Subject: Oh God, oh God, oh God, it's been a week! Fuck! SCP-3774-2432: Know… Subject: Leslie, can you please just tell me something about where you are? What was the last place that you remembered flying to? SCP-3774-2432: Living… room… Subject: Living room, living room, living room… There you are! The sound of the subject's footsteps become louder. Subject: God, please don't go like this. Please just… please just stay with me? One more day? I've never loved anyone as hard or as fast as I have with you. SCP-3774-2432: I'm… sorry… Subject: You don't need to be sorry, you did nothing wrong, just… please stay with me, please! SCP-3774-2432: I… have… an… idea… Subject: An idea? To keep you alive?! Well, fuck, just say it! Please! Anything! SCP-3774-2432: No… to… help… you… Subject: Help me? SCP-3774-2432: Remember… me… Subject: What do you mean? SCP-3774-2432: Have… kids… Subject: Have… what? Have kids? But… how? SCP-3774-2432: Lay… eggs… in… you… Subject: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Eggs? Inside me? SCP-3774-2432: Yes… Subject: That's… How would that even work? They'd still be more mosquitos! SCP-3774-2432: Your… blood… Subject: My blood? This doesn't even sound like science anymore, this is goddamn magic! SCP-3774-2432: Trust… me… Subject: But… What's the point of having kids if they don't have a mother? SCP-3774-2432: I'll… be… with.. you… Subject: No you won't… you'll just be dead, and… and I don't want to live without you. SCP-3774-2432: Merle… don't… let… me… leave… you… this… way… Subject: You… God, you're really trying to pull at my heartstrings. SCP-3774-2432: Please… Silence for approximately ten seconds. Subject: Okay. I'll do it. I'll have your kids. I'll have OUR kids. SCP-3774-2432: Thank… you… Subject: I love you, Leslie. SCP-3774-2432: I… love… you… too… Extraneous footage redacted. The subject was recovered on September 28th, ████, three days after the events recorded on Video Log 3774-30, with a large mass growing out of his thigh. When surgically removed, it was discovered to be four living human fetuses, which will henceforth be designated instances of SCP-3774-A. Skin samples taken from each instance of SCP-3774-A discovered that while they appear entirely human and are genetically the subject's children, 50% of their genetic makeup is identical to that of SCP-3774 instances. Over the course of seven more days, the instances of SCP-3774-A became the biological equivalent of a human infant. Further observations have shown that the rapid aging has ceased since reaching this stage. This is the only confirmed instance of an instance of SCP-3774 successfully mating with a human subject. The subject has been administered a dosage of Class-C Amnestics and given significantly altered memories in regards to his experiences with SCP-3774-24325 along with an entirely new identity. In addition, in order to monitor the natural growth of the SCP-3774-A instances, he and the four instances have been moved to a Foundation-approved neighborhood in ██████████, West Virginia, where they will be monitored discreetly.

Description: SCP-3775 is a large (4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms) house situated on a mountaintop near Tazewell, Virginia. It has two aboveground stories, a fully-furnished basement, second-floor balconies at the front and back, a two-car garage, and an in-ground swimming pool in the backyard. On 06-13-1976, multiple crimes, injuries, and deaths occurred during a house party at SCP-3775. Each year, between 21:14 and 2:45 on the anniversary of this event, the lights within SCP-3775 will turn on and loud rock music will emanate from within. No further anomalous activity will occur unless someone enters the house during this period. This has only been attempted once. Addendum 1: Exploration SCP-3775's anomalous behavior was first observed in 1977. A remotely-controlled vehicle equipped with a camera was sent inside, but its presence did not trigger any additional activity. As such, this exploration revealed only one piece of information that the police investigation did not: the sound system in the living room (from which the loud music originated) was of the "Syncope Symphony" brand. When questioned, the owners of the house were not able to recall the circumstances of its purchase. During the 1978 activation, D-2751 was sent inside to investigate. He was equipped with a body camera and a noise-canceling headset that would both protect his hearing and allow him to communicate with control. Security officers Marvin and Ortega were positioned in front of and behind the house, respectively, to facilitate quick extraction if D-2751 was in danger. <begin log> D-2751: Sounds like a hell of a party in there. Control: Is your hearing protection functioning properly? D-2751: [loudly] What? Control: Is your hearing protection functioning properly? D-2751 sighs D-2751: [at normal volume] Yeah. Control: Enter the house. D-2751: Here goes. D-2751 opens the door. Without its muffling effects, the music is now recognizable as Kiss's "Rock and Roll All Nite". This song continues on loop for the remainder of the exploration. The house remains mostly as it was left in 1976. Garbage, debris, and clothing is scattered across the floor throughout. D-2751: Yep, definitely a hell of a party. Anywhere specific you want me to go, or…? Control: You can start with the living room. D-2751 continues into a hallway. Entrances to a living room and dining room lie to his left. To his right, the hallway passes two flights of stairs - one going up, the other down - and several doors before terminating an exterior door. Another branch leads to the back door. Turning left, D-2751 enters the living room. The upholstery is badly stained, and the glass coffee table has been shattered. The music is almost too loud for control to hear D-2751. Control: Can you turn off the music? D-2751 approaches the sound system, a multi-track stereo flanked by two large speakers. He presses the power button on the stereo, and the music stops. D-2751: Hey, do you hear th- The stereo abruptly turns back on, playing more loudly than before. D-2751 is startled. Control: Hear what? D-2751: I thought I heard voices. Downstairs, maybe. Here, let me- Carefully, D-2751 turns the volume knob, but it has no discernible effect on the music. D-2751: Uh, do you think unplugging this thing would make any difference? Control: Probably not. The house shouldn't even have electricity. D-2751 looks up at the chandelier on the ceiling. A pink bra dangles from it. D-2751: Huh. Control: See if you can find the source of the voices. D-2751: Uh, sure. D-2751 walks towards the hall, pauses, and sidetracks into the kitchen instead. A pile of empty pizza boxes rots on the counter, and the toppled trashcan is overflowing with more food debris. The sink is filled with broken plates and glasses. No insects or other vermin are present. Control: What are you doing? D-2751 retrieves a large knife from the countertop knife block. D-2751: Just taking some precautions. Now armed, he proceeds quickly through the dining room and back into the hall. A beer pong game has been set up on the dining room table, and shards of antique china crunch underfoot. After exiting the dining room, he descends the stairs. They bring him to another hallway, which turns around a corner to his left and ends at two doors to his right. The voices are coming from behind one of these doors, but their words are not clearly distinguishable. D-2751 takes a deep breath and swiftly opens the door. The lights are off in the room beyond, but it is still faintly illuminated by the light from a large CRT front-projection television. The TV is playing a movie1 at high volume, apparently the source of the voices. Seeing this, D-2751 relaxes. He flips the light switch beside the door, revealing various pieces of comfortable furniture and speakers along the walls. Popcorn, crumbs, and plastic wrappers litter the floor. D-2751: False alarm, guys. Just a movie. Movie: …picture in the yearbook so everyone can see we looked like idiots. Besides, it's the last year. D-2751: Don't think I've seen this one. Control: Continue exploring the basement, since you're down there. D-2751: You got it, boss. After emerging from the movie room, D-2751 opens the other door in the hallway, revealing a closet filled with dusty toys and board games. D-2751 heads in the other direction and rounds the corner, finding more doors. The first, on his left, is open. Beyond it is a large game room containing air hockey, foosball, and billiards tables. D-2751: [whistles softly] This guy was L-I-V-I-N. He circles the room, examining the classic movie posters that decorate the walls. D-2751: You know, I never got to go to any parties like this in school. None of my friends were rich enough for this shit. Figured I'd get to in college, but…well, you know. Idly, he picks up the eight ball and tosses it into the air a few times. D-2751: It's funny, that's one of the things that really bugged me in the big house, that I'd never gotten a chance to go to one of those crazy parties like you see in the movies. But I can party as much as I want once you guys let me out, right? Control: Please continue the exploration. D-2751: Yeah, yeah. He returns the eight ball to its place and continues down the hall. The other two doors are locked, and the lights inside these rooms2 seem to be off. D-2751: Want me to break in? Control: Not right now. Head back upstairs. D-2751: You got it. D-2751 heads back down the hallway. He glances into the home theater as he passes, noticing that the lights have turned off again. It also appears that the blue and green CRTs have failed, leaving the image dark red and indistinct. Once upstairs, D-2751 investigates the interior doors in the hallway. One leads to the two-car garage, currently empty, and the other to a large storage room. He does not enter either. The door to one of the upstairs bedrooms slams shut forcefully enough to be heard over the music. The lights flicker. Control: Go see what that was. D-2751: Uh, are you sure? Control: Yes. Still holding the knife, D-2751 ascends the stairs. D-2756: You know, this place seems kind of familiar. On the second floor, a hallway wraps around the stairs and runs down the center of the house. Five doors open from it, and two branches lead to sliding glass doors that connect to the front and rear balconies. As D-2756 reaches the top of the stairs, one of these doors slides open of its own accord. A strong breeze blows in. D-2756 steps carefully onto the rear balcony, which runs the length of the house and overlooks the swimming pool. He stands at the railing and looks down at the drained pool. D-2776: [quietly] You know, I bet I could jump to the pool from here. Control: Do not do that! D-2776: Do what? Control Jump off the balcony! D-2776: Why the hell would I do that? Control: You were just talking about it. D-2776: What? No I wasn't! Control: Yes, you…ah, never mind. Just go check out that bedroom. D-2776 steps inside and closes the balcony door. He continues down the hall, heading for the closed bedroom door at the end. After almost a minute of walking, D-2776 has only covered about five feet. He stops beside the door to a large bathroom. D-2776: What the hell? Control: You might be in some kind of spatial distortion. You're still covering ground, though, so just keep going. D-2776 looks down the hall again, then back at the stairs. He takes two steps towards the stairs and, upon reaching them in the expected time, sighs with relief. Then he continues trying to traverse the hallway. Along the way, he passes three other bedrooms. Each is in disarray, with beside lamps knocked over, sheets twisted or flung aside, and clothing littering the floor. After fourteen minutes of continuous walking, D-2976 reaches the closed door. His gait has become noticeably unsteady. Control: 2976, are you okay? D-2976: Yeah, I- He belches lightly. D-2976: Uh, 'scuse me. I, uh. I feel kinda tipsy. Control: Are you able to continue? D-2976: Pff, yeah. I already made it to the door. Control: Try to open it. D-2976: Well, Hell, don't you think I should knock first? [he hiccups] Control: Sure. D-2976 knocks on the door, to no discernible response. He tries the doorknob, but the door is locked. Control: Try listening at the door. D-2976 places the headset around his neck and puts his ear against the door. D-2976: Hey…what the fuck? Hey! He tries the knob again, and pounds aggressively on the door. D-2976: [shouting] Hey! What are you doing? D-2976 continues to rattle the doorknob, but it still won't turn. His places his ear against the door again. Control: What's happening? D-2976 does not seem to hear control. He crouches down to peer through the keyhole. [Video and audio of the next 13 seconds are obscured by static. Control did not report any disruption at the time.] D-1976 screams and falls backwards. He drops the knife and crawls back down the hall on his hands and knees. D-1976: Nononono that wasn't me I didn't do that it wasn't- Using the wall to support himself, D-1976 struggles to his feet. He stumbles into the bathroom near the stairs and falls to his knees in front of the toilet. He frantically raises the lid, revealing a bowl that is already almost overflowing with fresh vomit. D-1976 lurches toward the bathtub and pukes into it instead. D-1976 sits back against the wall opposite the toilet. He groans nauseously and attempts to catch his breath. Behind the house, officer Ortega reports that a thick substance is dripping from the end of the diving board. He does not investigate. Control: D-1976, can you hear me? D-1976 seems to remember the headset, and puts it back on. D-1976: Huh? Control: What happened? D-1976: [considerably slurred] You know what fucking happened. Is this some kind of trick? Control: I don't know what you're talking about. What did you see behind the- D-1976: Fuck this. D-1976 tears off the headset and flings it into the shower. For this reason, all remaining audio from the headset consists of muffled music. Slowly, D-1976 staggers to his feet. He stumbles out of the bathroom and towards the stairs. On the third step, he trips and falls the rest of the way down. D-1976 lies stunned or unconscious at the bottom of the stairs for almost a minute. During this time, the music grows continuously louder and the lights take on an increasingly yellow tint. Ortega reports that the rate of dripping from the diving board has increased. Smoky haze begins to fill the house. The record skips, repeating the chorus over and over again. An unrecognizable teenager walks into view of the body camera. It is standing directly in front of the glass back door but is not visible from outside the house. The teenager gazes disinterestedly down at D-1976. After a few seconds, it raises a red plastic cup and pours the contents on him. D-1976 wakes up. The teenager wanders out of the body camera's view and is not seen again. D-1976 climbs back to his feet. He wobbles to the front door and tries to open it, but it seems to be stuck. He starts pounding on it and shouting for help. Officer Marvin requests permission to extract the subject, which is denied by control. Ortega sees the back door shatter. D-1976 hears the sound and moves towards it. The smoke inside is now thick enough to significantly impede vision, but none of it escapes through the shattered door. D-1976 exits the house and staggers along the pool deck, wiping his eyes and coughing loudly. Seemingly unintentionally, he stumbles out onto the diving board. He stops at the very end of the board and looks down. The swimming pool, which was drained after the house's abandonment, is twelve feet deep beneath the diving board. It currently holds only a few inches of stagnant rainwater, which has been turned red by the substance dripping from the board. It seems unnaturally bright in the pool-bottom lights. D-1976 looks up at officer Ortega. There is something wrong with his face. His voice, no longer slurred, can be clearly heard despite the distance and the overwhelming volume of the music. D-1976: Great party, isn't it? D-1976's knees buckle. The back of his head collides with the diving board as he falls, landing facedown in the bloody water twelve feet below. All activity in the house abruptly ceases. <end log> Addendum 2: Post-Analysis The blood from the swimming pool was of the same type as D-1976's. D-1976 was dead when the guards retrieved him. Cause of death was found to be drowning. His blood alcohol content was 0%. D-1976's records state that, prior to his recruitment as a Class D personnel, he had been sentenced to life imprisonment for crimes committed during the 1976 house party at SCP-3775. Testing him with the object was therefore a breach of cross-contamination protocols. It is not clear why this was permitted, or why personnel assigned to SCP-3775 were unaware of the connection. It is likewise unclear how D-1976 failed to recognize his own home. Footnotes 1.

SCP-3776	euclid	Apparel related to SCP-3776, recovered from a thrift store in Charleston, WV. Item #: SCP-3776 Special Containment Procedures: Thrift stores, garage sales, and other secondhand markets in Appalachia are to be consistently monitored by Foundation agents for signs of SCP-3776 activity. Should any artifacts related to the anomaly be discovered, they are to be seized and cataloged at Site-77. Subjects affected by SCP-3776 have been found to be resistant to amnestic treatments. As such, they are to be placed within an organization such as the Witness Protection Program and removed from the region. Once removed, memories and desires connected to SCP-3776 will fade over time. Description: SCP-3776 designates an anomalous phenomenon affecting much of the Appalachian region of the United States. All activity centers around an as-of-yet undiscovered recreational facility, "Camp Nimrod", which all recovered items indicate may have existed in the mid-1970's. Objects with iconography or other relation to Camp Nimrod, such as shirts, banners or craft projects will manifest in retail outlets selling secondhand clothing or items. Analysis of CCTV footage shows that these objects do not come into the stores from the outside and only appear once the merchandise has become available to purchase. Always placed in obscure locations, such as the bottoms of bins, it can take months or years for the items to be discovered. Physical contact with these objects causes vivid and detailed memories to manifest within the conscious thoughts of affected subjects; these memories center on time spent as an adolescent at a summer camp called "Camp Nimrod". Subjects describes the camp as having wooden cabins and being placed at the edge of a lake with a creek running to it, along with various camping activities such as tubing, archery, crafts and general roughhousing in the wilderness. Attempting to inquire about specific details such as location and the length of time camp lasted will be met with an apathetic or hostile response. Once a subject has been affected, a sealed cardboard container will appear in the attic of the last building where the subject's biological parents lived independently. If an individual other than the subject opens the box it will only contain ashes and a significant number of living Periplaneta americana (palmetto bugs). Should the subject open the box, it will contain numerous memorabilia related to their supposed Camp Nimrod experience. Beads, apparel, and other trinkets are usually found, along with various forms of media. Photographs are the most common format in all recorded cases. Depending on the individual's age there may also be videotape, film reels, and music sheets, along with sketches done in their hand. All of these feature the subject in some fashion. A yearbook-style group photo is present in most cases. These will all show signs of age- and exposure-related degradation. Elucidating the location of SCP-3776 through these objects has not proved to be viable. Any identifying information such as street signs, vehicle license plate numbers, or migratory wildlife will have been lost through apparently natural aging and decay. All letters have had the recipient's address faded past legibility. However there will always be enough information for the subject to reach out and contact individuals they remember attending SCP-3776 with. In almost every case these individuals will be geographically close to the subject. All have been found to have existing knowledge of SCP-3776. This outreach is the second most common vector for spreading SCP-3776's effect. Many of the SCP-3776 subjects are impoverished, with some being addicted to opiates or alcohol. Research has ruled out any relation to SCP-3776's effect, as it is not universal among all affected individuals. Should two subjects afflicted by SCP-3776 begin to converse, their mental faculties will degrade abruptly as the conversation progresses. It has been found that multiple conversations of any length result in the brain entering the beginning stages of dementia. The corresponding bodily degradation will not be acknowledged by these subjects on their own; if questioned, they will attribute it to "old wounds from camp". Continuing to seek out information and persons related to SCP-3776 will accelerate this effect. Many subjects will perish either from their weakened condition making them vulnerable to illness, organ failure in the brain, early-onset dementia, and a few cases of disappearing into the wilderness looking for Camp Nimrod. Foundation attempts to locate a physical location corresponding with the camp have not been successful. Although several abandoned campgrounds have been discovered, none of these were recognized by the SCP-3776 subjects. Addendum: On 09/18/1999, Foundation personnel intercepted reports of an individual who claimed to have been a camp counselor at Camp Nimrod. After seizing and altering the public records which had alerted them, Agent Ekblad was dispatched to an abandoned grocery store in Hurricane, WV, where the individual was identified and interviewed. Interviewed: █████ ████, US citizen and West Virginia resident. Interviewer: Agent Ekblad, of Mobile Task Force Psi-7. Foreword: Interview took place in an abandoned grocery store, which public records indicate was owned and operated by █████ ████ until 1990. It is believed the subject had been living inside the building since its closure. Subject was discovered bagging and un-bagging expired canned food and rotten fruit into a paper bag, and continued this activity throughout the interview. <Begin Log> Agent Ekblad: Hello? Can you hear me? The door was open, and I let myself in. █████ ████: inaudible mumbling Agent Ekblad: Excuse me? My name is Calvin, I'm with the state. Your living conditions, frankly, are… appalling. Do you understand what I'm saying? I want to help you, we just need you to answer some questions first. █████ ████: Yes, yes, inaudible. We've got to get out of this place. It's not right. Agent Ekblad: Do you want to leave? We could speak outside… █████ ████: But, it's… we're here. I'm just packing this up for you. Can I help you with anything else? Agent Ekblad: Oh, but… mister, I don't need that bagged. I have my own. I just want to talk. █████ ████: Can't you help me? We've got to drop it — her — I've got to drop her off. Agent Ekblad: Who are you talking about? █████ ████: To go to camp… I did it, when I was a young. Oh, when we swam up in the creek. I always thought somebody would drown there. Told stories to the littler things, the littler kids. Little ones. We always made them… inaudible. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm trying. Agent Ekblad: Are you referring to Camp Nimrod? █████ ████: Oh boy, those were the salad days. So many of them, that's where we started. Camp is like a habit, when you keep going back. A lot of kids started… inaudible… started using it. Like a camp. They blistered and wilted in the sun. Agent Ekblad: Can you remember who any of those kids were? Do you know their names? █████ ████: Are you for… are you kidding me? What are we doing here? Why am I doing here? There's so much to… paper or plastic, sir? Agent Ekblad: You were mentioning a girl earlier. Do you know her name? █████ ████: Oh! Subject knocks bag over, sending cans spilling onto the ground. Several pop open, spilling rotten contents across the floor, which emit a strong odor. Summer is over! We've got to… inaudible, subject slumps over onto table. Agent Ekblad: Hey, stay with me here. Who are you talking about? █████ ████: Summer is over… my… my little girl, I've got to get here. School is starting soon. It's our… bicep… ten… annual. She's going to make so many friends. Summer is over. Summer is over. Summer is over. Summer is over. Subject repeated this until Agent Ekblad retreated from the building. <End Log> Closing Statement: Multiple broken and empty picture frames were found in a room on the building's second floor, along with two soiled cushions and a stained pink ribbon. Other than this, there was no evidence of anyone inhabiting the building other than the interviewed subject. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3776" by Anonymous, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3777	euclid	Item #: SCP-3777 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3777 is to be confined within Armed Containment Area-67 at all times. Point Ω should not be approached in order to ensure that SCP-3777 remains in Phase α at all times. Should SCP-3777 deviate from its present behavior and attempt to breach the containment perimeter, the Containment Task Force stationed at Area-67 is to immobilize and/or neutralize SCP-3777. Description: SCP-3777 is a mobile humanoid automaton approximately 50 m in height, which is mostly composed of clay and brass machine parts, some etched with legible inscriptions1. Embedded within SCP-3777 are scraps of parchment upon which the Tetragrammaton2 is written. SCP-3777 occupies a ruin north of Ephesus, Turkey, which is believed to have been a 1st century CE Jewish synagogue. SCP-3777 does not display any signs of sapience, but behaves in accordance with a four-phase routine: During Phase α, SCP-3777 behaves passively, standing at the center of the ruin which it occupies (henceforth designated Point Ω). During Phase β, SCP-3777 behaves territorially, patrolling in a counterclockwise circle around Point Ω. SCP-3777 will aggressively prevent individuals from approaching Point Ω by attempting to crush such individuals with its feet, but it will not pursue those who are fleeing from the ruin. SCP-3777 will transition from Phase α to Phase β when an individual approaches within 3 m of Point Ω. During Phase γ, SCP-3777 behaves passively, by approaching Point Ω and repeatedly punching directly ahead. Foundation researchers believe that this behavior is intended to damage the ruin, but it is ineffective in doing so due to the ruin's low height and the positioning of SCP-3777's arms. SCP-3777 will transition from Phase β to Phase γ after an hour has elapsed since entering Phase β. During Phase δ, SCP-3777 behaves erratically, walking in random directions around and across Point Ω. At times, SCP-3777 will strike itself, although it sustains little damage from this behavior. SCP-3777 will transition from Phase γ to Phase δ after five minutes have elapsed since entering Phase γ. After nine hours have elapsed since entering Phase δ, SCP-3777 will return to Phase α. It is believed by Foundation historians that SCP-3777 was unintentionally created as the result of a localized anomalous conflict between Jewish and Mekhanite3 residents of Ephesus during the 1st century CE. Two contemporary sources provide accounts of the creation of SCP-3777: the unabridged Antiquities of the Jews by Josephus4, and the Mekhanite Book of Apostates5. These sources are reproduced below. Accessing "Antiquities of the Jews, Unabridged" by Josephus (Department of Antiquities: 1911.87.43)… Now in those days the worshipers of Mekhane, who is called the Broken God by some, were strongly persecuting the Jews in Ephesus. In all Ephesus the hand of the Mekhanites was against the Jews, and the Jews of Ephesus dared not appear in the public places lest they suffer the Mekhanites' wrath. Now there was a wise teacher of the Jews named Enoch, who saw the plight of his people, and was greatly displeased. In his displeasure he read from the Book of Creation6, and was inspired. Writing the holy name of the Most High, he made a golem—a man of clay—and bade it protect the synagogue. (Surely the Jewish people exceed even the Mekhanites in such arts!) Indeed, the golem repulsed the Mekhanites, but they were a stubborn people, and would not relent. Thus the Mekhanites built many constructs—men of brass—and bade them attack the synagogue. At first, the golem was overwhelmed, and the Jews of Ephesus struggled to hold the synagogue, but Enoch was not deterred. Ordering all the scrolls of the synagogue to be brought to him, he cut them apart, wrote the holy name of the Most High a thousand times more, and bade the golem to gather clay from nearby. With this clay Enoch formed another golem, and bade this new golem to do the same as the first. In this manner Enoch then formed 999 more golems to protect the synagogue. Now the Mekhanites were repulsed once more, but the chief builder among them—a man named Demetrius7, a silversmith—called upon the Mekhanites of all Anatolia and Attica, and the men of brass descended upon Ephesus in the tens of thousands. And so the men of clay and the men of brass fought, and neither side gained the upper hand in battle. Now on the fifth day of the melee there was a great storm, and torrential rain fell upon the area. The men of clay, still freshly molded, became nothing more than writhing lumps of clay, while the men of brass rusted and became immobile. When the storm had passed, all the Jews and Mekhanites of Ephesus saw that there were no more men of clay or brass, but a colossus of clay and brass. This colossus wreaked such havoc throughout all Ephesus that not even the legions of the emperor could put an end to it. Thus Ephesus was evacuated, and the Jews and Mekhanites of Ephesus were harshly proscribed. Accessing "Book of Apostates" by Demetrius of Ephesus (Department of Antiquities: 1978.63.47)… 98 An injunction of Demetrius, chief builder in Ephesus. 2 Surely damnation shall soon come for the Hypsistarians8, 3 those fools who cower before their idol Zeus Sabazios9! 4 How feckless must you be, to turn from MEKHANE's light, 5 because you have been defeated by crude men of clay? 6 Behold, see how their creation has turned against them! 7 The responsibility for Ephesus's ruin is theirs, not ours, 8 for we made men of brass with MEKHANE's knowledge, 9 and they made men of clay with the flesh's ignorance. 10 Do they not put faith in acts of sacrifice and mutilation? 11 Surely this is an hour to be firm, yet I will offer mercy, 12 for Sophia has departed from us, and led many astray. 13 Apostates, there will be but one chance for repentance. 14 MEKHANE's righteous wrath shall pause but never cease! Footnotes 1. Sample inscriptions (translated from Koine Greek) include: "Gift of the workshop in Kythera, to our brothers in Ephesus" "Triumph over the circumcision" "Screw the whore Sophia" "All Colossae praises Demetrius, hammer of the Hebrews" "Hear, O Anatolia, God is broken, and MEKHANE is God" For additional inscriptions, consult the 2017 SCP-3777 Archeological Report (Department of Antiquities: 2017.7.3). 2. The Hebrew letters יהוה‎, which spell the name Yahweh. 3. Generic term for predecessors of the modern Church of the Broken God. 4. Jewish Roman historian of the 1st century CE. 5. Religious text of the Mekhanite faith, which lists groups and individuals who left the Mekhanite faith or advanced teachings considered to be heretical. 6. Or Sefer Yetzirah, an early esoteric Jewish religious text. 7. Probably referring to Demetrius of Ephesus, an Anatolian Mekhanite religious leader who is mentioned in Chapter 19 of Acts of the Apostles. 8. Monotheistic religious group related to Judaism, whose members worshiped the Hypsistos, or "Most High." 9.

SCP-3778	keter	Item #: SCP-3778 Threat Level: Red 🔴 Special Containment Procedures: A single instance of SCP-3778 is to be kept in a Standard Botanical Containment Unit in Site-103. Staff are not allowed to consume any instances of SCP-3778-1, due to the risk that instances of SCP-3778-1 may fall into the possession of an instance of SCP-3778-A. Absolutely no instances of Didelphis virginiana (the Virginia Opossum) are to be allowed in the vicinity of Site-103, regardless of whether they are an instance of SCP-3778-A or not. Any wild or otherwise uncontained instances of SCP-3778 are to be exterminated. Coordination with the UIU and GOC in targeting and eliminating the spread of SCP-3778 is ongoing. Current containment protocol regarding instances of SCP-3778-A is the establishment and continued maintenance of diplomatic ties with the five tribal authorities of SCP-3778-A. Various treaties between the Five Tribes of SCP-3778-A and the Foundation include the following stipulations on SCP-3778-A: Instances of SCP-3778-A may not interact or communicate with any humans, with the exception of authorized Foundation liaisons. The tribes of SCP-3778-A will avoid human settlements as much as possible, with the exception of ██████████, Louisiana, due to reasons of cultural significance. Instances of SCP-3778-A will not attempt to cross the border fence separating the United States and Mexico, or attempt to gain entry into Latin America through any means. Cultivation of SCP-3778, either by SCP-3778-A or humans, is not allowed. In return for their compliance with these demands, the Five Tribes of SCP-3778-A expect that the Foundation adhere to the following: The Foundation is to not actively detain any instances of SCP-3778-A, unless they pose an active threat to the Foundation or the Five Tribes, or are voluntarily participating in the Methuselah Project. The Foundation is to sway the domestic policy of the United States to preserve the Gulf Coast against the effects of sea level rise and other forms of climate change, as well as facilitate the creation of additional national parks. The Foundation is to deploy positive memetic devices on the internet to bolster the acceptance of the Virginia Opossum among the general population, and to discourage the concept of the Virginia Opossum being a form of vermin. The Foundation must focus significant resources on the Methuselah Project, which involves the extension of the lifespan of the Virginia Opossum. Details on the projected timeline of the Methuselah Project can be found in Addendum 3778-MPT. The Foundation must also stymie the technological progress of SCP-3778-A for as long as possible, while still maintaining positive relations. For this reason, all interference with the progress of SCP-3778-A must be conducted via clandestine operations. Stages of the Methuselah Project must not be completed ahead of schedule. Description: SCP-3778 is an anomalous type of Vitis Vinifera, or Common Grapevine. Like any other grapevine, SCP-3778 produces grapes (henceforth referred to as SCP-3778-1). While these grapes do not lead to any changes when ingested by humans, their anomalous properties manifest when they are consumed by any member of the genus Didelphis, causing rapid neural restructuring and development. Through ingestion of SCP-3778-1, any opossum can reach sapience. Opossums that have reached sapience through SCP-3778-1 are henceforth referred to as SCP-3778-A. SCP-3778, SCP-3778-1, and SCP-3778-A are all genetically and physically identical to their non-anomalous counterparts, making detection of these anomalies difficult. Upon reaching sapience, SCP-3778-A instances will attempt to enlighten their non-sapient counterparts. While opossums do not normally exhibit social behavior, instances of SCP-3778-A seem to attract other members of their species to them. This attraction appears to extend out ██km, though vocalization, sight, pheromones, and █████████ seem to aid the process. Once a sufficient congregation size has been reached, SCP-3778-A will provide SCP-3778-1 to the other opossums present, allowing them to also reach sapience, and thus forming more instances of SCP 3778-A. SCP 3778-A can also be created by natural birth between two instances of SCP-3778-A or one SCP-3778-A instance and a non-anomalous opossum. The intelligence of SCP-3778-A is comparable to that of a human, and instances are capable of learning human languages. SCP-3778-A shows special preference for learning and using Cajun, French, Spanish, English, and various forms of Creole, though these preferences are primarily attributable to the region that SCP-3778-A achieved sapience in. Due to the innate differences of biology between humans and opossums (specifically regarding the mouth and throat) SCP-3778-A instances vocalize distinct syntax patterns and accents that are markedly different from any human speech. Efforts to streamline communication between humans and SCP-3778-A are ongoing. As of writing, all instances of SCP-3778-A have coalesced into the aforementioned Five Tribes. See Addendum 3778-5T for details on each tribe. SCP-3778-A possesses a primitive albeit rapidly advancing technological level. SCP-3778-A, as of now, has technology comparable to humanity during the Early Bronze Age. While the Foundation maintains technological superiority, ██ years ago SCP-3778-A was at pre-agricultural levels, indicating a rapid level of advancement. Unchecked, SCP-3778-A may potentially lead to an SK-Class dominance shift scenario. Countermeasures are currently in place to prevent SCP-3778-A from gaining a large enough population1 or from gaining great enough political unity to mount an offensive against Foundation activities. The possibility that SCP-3778-1’s effects will spread from the Virginia Opossum to other members of the Didelphis family cannot be ruled out. As the majority of the opossum population lies in Latin America, coordination between the Foundation, the Mexican government, and various Central American nations have been dedicated to the elimination of suspected instances of SCP-3778. + Show Addendum 3778-MPT. LEVEL 3 CLEARANCE OR HIGHER REQUIRED - ACCESS GRANTED. Hide Addendum 3778-MPT Addendum 3778-MPT: Methuselah Project Proposal Date: 11/04/20██ Goal: The aim of the Methuselah Project is to promote diplomatic relations between SCP-3778-A and the Foundation by aiding not just SCP-3778-A, but all opossums with curing one of their most ancient ailments: their lifespan. Most opossums only live two years in the wild, and up to four in good captivity. The truth is that this is far too short to be able to maintain convenient diplomatic relations. This fact also causes many instances of SCP-3778-A distress, upon learning of their short natural lifespan, and solving this issue would put SCP-3778-A in our debt. To facilitate trust between the opossum race and mankind, we propose that the Foundation begin the Methuselah Project. Through simple genetic engineering and viral therapy, we can increase the lifespan of the Virginia Opossum by over a factor of ten. Timeline: Early 20██: The Methuselah Project will begin. 20██: The necessary genes for life extension will be isolated. 20██: Testing will begin. Testing is to be conducted on volunteering SCP-3778-A participants. 20██: By this time, testing is expected to yield positive results for genetic modification trials. 20██: Isolation period of modified SCP-3778-A will expire. If no long-term health problems are identified, Methuselah Project will move on to the next stage. 20██: Engineering of a suitable delivery method of the genetic modification (SCP-3778-B) will commence. 20██: If suitable delivery method is constructed, begin mass-deployment of SCP-3778-B via [REDACTED] to increase the lifespan of all instances of SCP-3778-A, and non-anomalous Virginia Opossums. + Show Addendum 3778-5T - Hide Addendum 3778-5T The Five Tribes2 is the common name for the various hierarchical organizations that SCP-3778-A has organized itself into. Such polities are geographically based, and are in areas where the non-anomalous Virginia Opossum is also usually found. A map for the territory claimed by the five tribes can be found below. The Five Tribes are as follows: The Great Lakes Clans: Due to the low temperatures that the Great Lakes region reaches during the winter, this is the smallest of the Five Tribes. Until recently, the Great Lakes Clans engaged in conflict with its southern neighbors for food and territory. Upon discovery by the Foundation, all conflict was ordered to cease, and aid by the Foundation to the Great Lakes Clans has raised the standard of living, as well as easing political tensions between the Tribes. Shown in green. Appalachia: Appalachia comprises the eastern coast of the United States, and the Appalachian Mountains. It is one of the larger SCP-3778-A polities, and claims significant territory. Appalachia is also a production powerhouse, as it holds mineral deposits that are vital to SCP-3778-A’s technological development. Appalachia formed after seceding from the Gulf Empire, making it the second recorded SCP-3778-A state to emerge. Shown in pink. The Midwest Association: The Midwest Association occupies the outer reaches of contiguous opossum influence, and recently was observed making forays into Colorado for colonization efforts. The Midwest Association has since been ordered to cease expansion, under the pretense that they should “focus more on internal development first”. Shown in yellow. United Pacifica: United Pacifica is the newest of the Five Tribes. It has a larger population than that of the Great Lakes Clans, but holds less influence over intertribal politics due to its distance from the other polities. Shown in blue. The Gulf Empire: The Gulf Empire is the oldest and largest surviving3 entities of the Five Tribes, being founded in 1898 by Emperor Sesame I. The Gulf Empire wields significant influence over all other organizations, and has been the most vocal about the pursuance of the Methuselah Project. While once encompassing most of the territory claimed by instances of SCP-3778-A, rapid technological advancement and political turmoil have rendered it less powerful than it was at its height. Shown in red. Map of the various political entities that SCP-3778-A has organized itself into + Transcript of interview with SCP-3778-A instance. LEVEL FOUR CREDENTIALS REQUIRED - ACCESS GRANTED Addendum 3778-A6: Interviewer: Dr. Clarke Interviewed: An instance of SCP-3778-A, henceforth known as “Milkshake”, who is a relatively prominent member of the Gulf Empire’s Noble Council. Foreword: In the following interview, Dr. Clarke and Milkshake discuss the Methuselah Project. Note: Like all instances of SCP-3778-A, Milkshake uses different speech patterns, some cultural, others innate to her biology. The transcript below does not modify these patterns, but does provide translations. <Begin Log, ██:██ hours, ██/██/████> Dr. Clarke: Welcome, SCP-3778-A. Milkshake: Mi nӕme eës Milkshӕk. (My name is Milkshake.) Dr. Clarke: Yes, of course. Sorry, Milkshake. How are you today. Milkshake: Güd. (Good.) Milkshake clicks her lips twice4. Milkshake: Gurp? (Grape?) Dr. Clarke: 'fraid not, Milkshake. No grapes for right now. Milkshake droops her head and lays down on the table. Dr. Clarke: What would you like to talk about today? Milkshake: Mëduselã (Methuselah). Dr. Clarke: Well, that’s fine. What particular points of the Methuselah Project would you like to discuss? Milkshake: Ñot fӕst ëñof. (Not fast enough.) Dr. Clarke: I’m sorry, we’re working on it. These things take time and- Milkshake: Go fӕstir. Or fren ño mur. (Go faster, or friends no more.) Milkshake growls slightly and proceeds to clean herself. Milkshake is unresponsive to any further inquiry, and growls when approached by Dr. Clarke. Session ends. <End Log, ██:██ hours, ██/██/████> Footnotes 1. It is estimated that the population of SCP-3778-A currently lies somewhere around 150,000 instances. 2. Not all of the “Five Tribes” actually follow a tribal form of political organization. 3. Other SCP-3778-A groups were known to exist, but only recently has communication been established between SCP-3778-A and the Foundation to allow understanding of the political divisions present. 4. Among all opossums, including non-anomalous instances, this is seen as a sign of eagerness. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3778" by Lady Zero, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3779	safe	Item #: SCP-3779 Special Containment Procedures: Provisional Site 3779 has been constructed around SCP-3779 to serve as its containment facility. Provisional Site 3779 consists of a perimeter fence, personnel quarters, and 2 research buildings. Plants within SCP-3779 are to be watered according to each species' requirements, and adequate sunlight should be able to reach all of the plants within. If necessary, UV lamps can be placed on the outside of SCP-3779 facing in. Personnel permitted to enter SCP-3779 are to conduct equipment checks before and after entering the structure to ensure no objects are left within. In the event that an unauthorized object is left within SCP-3779, containment teams are to extract the object as quickly as possible. Necessary force is to be used, though teams should attempt to limit as much damage to the structure as possible. SCP-3779 (pictured on the left) during the initial containment phase. Description: SCP-3779 is a 47 square meter greenhouse located in southwestern Iowa. Within SCP-3779 are various species of potted flora, either hanging from hooks attached to the ceiling or resting on tables or shelves. Written on the inside walls of SCP-3779 in black paint are 8 glyphs of unknown meaning and origin1. When a foreign object2 is introduced to SCP-3779, the plants within will begin to exhibit some of the properties of the object.3 The means by which SCP-3779 chooses which properties to gain is currently unknown. Over the course of approximately 12 hours, SCP-3779 plants will change their properties to match those of the introduced object. If given enough time, the properties of plants within SCP-3779 can match those of the introduced objects. Upon the removal of the foreign object, SCP-3779 plants will return to their original states over the course of 4-6 hours. Plants which die within SCP-3779 will no longer exhibit their anomalous properties. In the event that an adapted plant is removed from SCP-3779, it will decay similarly to non-anomalous plants, albeit at a much faster rate. Plants introduced to SCP-3779 will not be mimicked; instead, they will behave like plants already within SCP-3779. Experiment Logs: Test #: 3779-01-672001 Setup: A 1 meter portion of a standard steel I-Beam is placed within SCP-3779 and left for 9 hours. Results: The tensile strength of all plants within SCP-3779 increased by a factor of 10 and the colors of the plants shifted towards that of the I-Beam. Test #: 3779-02-672001 Setup: A 0.25 m3 block of ice is placed within a container and then into SCP-3779 and left for 7 hours. Results: Over the course of the preliminary 6 hours, the plants within SCP-3779 gained some of the properties of the ice. As the ice melted, the molecules making up the plants detached from their structures through unknown means and behaved like a liquid. When the water was removed, the pools of plant material reformed into their pre-experiment forms. Test #: 3779-03-692001 Setup: A laboratory mouse (Mus musculus) is placed within SCP-3779 and left for 7 hours. Results: After 5 hours, SCP-3779 plants developed structures containing photoreceptor cells which emanate from various locations on their stems. After 6 hours, plants developed funnel-like structures which resemble the ears of the laboratory mouse which emanate from various locations on their stems, though no further structures were observed. Test #: 3779-04-6112001 Setup: D-80801, a 32-year-old Caucasian male, was placed within SCP-3779 and instructed to sit and wait until further notice. Results: After 9 hours, SCP-3779 plants had developed complex and fully-functional visual, auditory, and somatic 'organs' across all structures of the plants. After 10 hours, SCP-3779 plants began to develop muscular structures, allowing them to move their stems and stem branches. After 11 hours, D-80801 was instructed to remove an ocular organ from one of the plants. While attempting to do this, the plant in question wrapped an extraneous vine around D-80801's neck and strangled him to death. Following the death of D-80801, plants within SCP-3779 became inert and began to imitate decaying flesh in a manner similar to that of D-80801's body. Footnotes 1. All attempts to replicate the anomalous properties of SCP-3779 by reproducing these glyphs have resulted in failure. 2. Foreign objects are defined as objects which were not present within SCP-3779 at the time of discovery. 3. It should be noted that the plant pots, tables, shelves, etc, that were within SCP-3779 at the time of discovery are not mimicked by the plants within the greenhouse. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3779" by urbandelayed, from the SCP Wiki.

They have been granted indefinite Level 5 clearance to all Foundation task forces and resources under the condition that said resources be either returned or replaced within one standard minute of deployment (relative to local time of requisition). Description: SCP-3780 describes the collective attempts by various individuals, third parties, and separate temporal versions of the Foundation to prevent the assassination of United States President John Fitzgerald Kennedy by Lee Harvey Oswald on 22 November, 1963. Although no significant changes to the timeline would actually occur if Kennedy's assassination were successfully prevented, the objective of the Foundation to preserve original consensus reality extends to the preservation of a single objective timeline within this reality. Therefore, the Temporal Anomalies Department has established Operation Thunderbolt: an indefinite program to ensure that Kennedy is shot to death by Oswald at 12:30 PM on Friday, 22 November, 1963 in Dallas, Texas. To this end, Temporal Anomalies has established a holding ground between 2220 and 2230 AD to store resources and personnel for Operation Thunderbolt as needed. Further details on Operation Thunderbolt are limited to Temporal Anomalies personnel for paradoxical reasons. Addendum: Notable Attempts at Preventing Kennedy's Assassination Date: 22/11/1963 Attempt: A gunman hiding in the Texas School Book Depository shoots Oswald dead before he can shoot Kennedy. Sweeps by the Department ahead of time to locate the gunman fail; however, Department personnel observing from the so-called grassy knoll are able to spot the gunman moving through the building from their position. Preventative Measures: A sniper placed on the grassy knoll is able to spot the gunman moving through the building and incapacitate him with a gut shot. Department personnel hiding in the building are subsequently able to locate the gunman; however, before they can recover his body, it abruptly vanishes. Date: 22/11/1963 Attempt: At 12:29 PM, Oswald abruptly vanishes from his vantage point in the Texas Book Depository. Personnel surveying the scene are unable to locate any trace of him. At 12:42 PM, he reappears in the Depository, by which time the motorcade has passed. From Oswald's perspective, no time has passed and he is unable to explain the lost time. Preventative Measures: As soon as Oswald reappears at 12:42, a Temporal Relocation specialist transfers Oswald to 12:29 PM, synchronizing with the exact time of his disappearance. Oswald remains unaware of his relocation and successfully makes the shot. Date: 22/11/1963 Attempt: An agent of Marshall, Carter, and Dark retroactively aborts Oswald by infiltrating the home of his mother, Marguerite Frances Claverie, and slipping a capsule of powdered unicorn horn into the jug of milk in her fridge. Preventative Measures: Two Temporal Anomalies agents stake out Claverie's home overnight; in the early morning, they are able to intercept and subdue the MC&D agent and recover her for interrogation without incident. The capsule of unicorn horn is confiscated successfully. Date: 22/11/1963 Attempt: While Dr. Thaddeus Xyank is observing Oswald under the cover of an SEP-Field, his future self barges into the room, renders Xyank unconscious with a punch to the jaw, and pushes him into a portable temporal relocation gateway. However, the Fields are momentarily disturbed by the impact of the punch, causing both Xyanks to be noticed by Oswald and throwing off his aim. Preventative Measures: Dr. Xyank returns to the moment in time when he was incapacitated by his future self. However, he chooses to arrive five seconds after his future self arrives in the room. Xyank subsequently incapacitates his future self with a punch to the jaw and pushes him through the temporal relocation gateway instead. However, his future self repeats the action, appearing five seconds after him, incapacitating him, and pushing him into the gateway. Unwilling to accept defeat, both Xyanks repeat this process several more times until both of them only appear after Oswald has successfully shot and killed Kennedy, at which point the two Xyanks agree to a truce. Date: 22/11/1963 Attempt: A version of Mobile Task Force Tau-5 is dispatched by the Foundation of the year 20██ to eliminate Oswald with extreme prejudice. Temporal Anomalies personnel attempt to prevent them from doing so; they are repeatedly unsuccessful and suffer heavy casualties as well. Preventative Measures: Mobile Task Force Tau-5 is dispatched to protect Oswald by intercepting and eliminating their future selves. Although they are initially successful in doing so, the surviving Nanku asset is found to be from the 20██-Foundation. She is subsequently reprogrammed to replace her past counterpart. Diplomatic channels have been opened with the 20██-Foundation to ascertain their reasoning for attempting to eliminate Oswald. No future attempts at using Tau-5 are expected. Please view the Extended Incident Logs for further declassified successes of Operation Thunderbolt. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3780" by A Random Day, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3781	safe	Item #: SCP-3781 Special Containment Procedures: On October 11, 1999, all of SCP-3781's publicly available servers were shut down and removed from the Internet. All search results, screenshots, and links for SCP-3781 were completely removed from the Internet. Using IP addresses gathered from the game's database, all players of SCP-3781 were tracked down, detained, and released after being administered Class C amnestics. Addendum 3781.071901: Following the incident of July 19, 2001, a mass misinformation campaign was instated with the cooperation of every major space agency in the world to convince the rest of the world that the International Space Station is intact and operational. Further testing on SCP-3781 has been ceased indefinitely. Description: SCP-3781 is a Japanese massively multiplayer online game titled OK Painter! (OK ペインター!), developed and published in 1999 by Tokyo-based independent video game studio PaintSoft. The game was online for 6 months prior to the Foundation's discovery and its subsequent shutdown on October 11, 1999. Data gathered from the game's database revealed that SCP-3781 had a total of 153 players, all of which were located within Tokyo Prefecture.1 Players assume control of "Painters", white humanoid creatures drawn in the Japanese "super-deformed" cartoon style and equipped with paint brushes and buckets of paint. Painters serve as the player's avatar and are widely customizable in appearance. The primary objective of SCP-3781 is to gain rewards and increase in experience level through scaling various buildings in Tokyo using paint. Upon reaching the maximum level of 99, reaching a balcony or rooftop produces a dialog box reading "Leave a cool message?" and the options YES and NO. Choosing YES prompts the player to type a phrase or quote associated with a piece of popular culture into the provided space. (See Addendum 3781.1 for additional details.) Upon entering the phrase, a cutscene occurs wherein the Painter paints the phrase onto the wall (or floor if on the rooftop) in the format "OK Painter, [input]" Immediately following this, an event involving the Painter is depicted that alludes to the work associated with the inputted phrase. Approximately 33 minutes and 19 seconds later, the effect produced upon the Painter is followed by an analogous event at a random real-world location. Further testing has suggested that locations of said events are related to the country from which the work referenced by the inputted phrase originates. Addendum 3781.1 Close addendum Choosing YES when asked to "leave a cool message" produces the following prompt: Type your favorite phrase from popular culture into the space below. Make sure it's cool! type your phrase here Phrases must fall within a certain set of criteria to be accepted by SCP-3781. The currently known criteria are as follows: SCP-3781 defines "popular culture" as any narrative communicated by any form of broadcast, digital, outdoor or print media. The work referenced by the phrase must be a fictional narrative. Descriptions of nonfictional events are considered fictional as long as the characters involved are fictional. The referenced work must have been made available to the general public at one point in time. Entering a phrase from an unreleased or prototype version of any work that did not appear in the final product produces the message "That's not how I remember it. Try again!" The phrase must have explicitly appeared within the referenced work itself. Different adaptations of the same narrative are considered separate works. The phrase cannot include the name of the referenced work. Simply entering the title of the work in question (e.g. Romeo and Juliet as opposed to "My naked weapon is out.") produces the message "That's too obvious. Try again!" The phrase must be written exactly as it appears in the referenced work, including grammar and punctuation. Typing a misquoted phrase (e.g. "Luke, I am your father." instead of "No, I am your father."), produces the message "That's not quite right. Try again!" In the case of a phrase appearing in multiple works, the work referenced will be the one to which the player has most recently been exposed, or which the player consciously or subconsciously associates with the phrase. Addendum 3781.2: Experiment Logs Close addendum The following experiment logs are all translated from Japanese. All times listed are in Japanese Standard Time (JST) unless otherwise noted. Test 01—10/12/99, 14:23 Player: Researcher Toriyama Input:"OK Painter, Special Beam Cannon!" Results: The Painter gains a green complexion and replaces its customized outfit with a white cape with shoulder guards and a white turban. The Painter touches a hand to its forehead, then expels a bright energy beam bounded by rings of light into the distance. A small explosion is observed in the far left corner of the background. Notes: On October 12, 1999 at 14:56, an abrupt ██████% increase in nuclear radiation levels was detected for 13.39 seconds within a 10 cm2wide area of space across a strawberry field outside of ████████, a town in Ibaraki Prefecture. Two hundred and twenty-three (223) strawberry plants were obliterated by the radiation blast; no animals or human beings were harmed. Test 02—01/25/00, 12:00 Player: Researcher Fujiwara Input: "OK Painter, You are already dead." Results: A tall, muscular man wearing a blue vest and jeans with white shoulder pads punches through the wall in front of the Painter. He presses his thumbs into the sides of the Painter's head and speaks: "I just pressed your hidden pressure point. Your life ends seven seconds from now. Use this time to reflect on your sins." The Painter runs around the rooftop for approximately 7 seconds before suddenly clutching its head and collapsing. The screen turns red as a loud, high-pitched warbling tone plays, followed by the sound of an explosion and splattering noises. The word "ひでぶっ!!" is displayed on the screen. Notes: On January 25, 2000 at 12:33, Japanese news station ███'s breaking news segment covered the murder in broad daylight of ██████ Kazuma, a Yakuza member involved in a series of murders and human trafficking operations across Japan's Kantō region. Kazuma was apprehended and assaulted in the Harajuku district of Shibuya, Tokyo by a man "cosplaying" as the character Kenshiro from the Fist of the North Star manga and anime series. Video footage showed Kazuma's assailant saying "I just pressed your hidden pressure point. Your life ends seven seconds from now. Use this time to reflect on your sins." This was immediately followed by [DATA EXPUNGED]. Kazuma's official cause of death was listed as severe head trauma and internal hemorrhage. Test 03— 06/20/00, 19:42 Player: Researcher Takeuchi Input: "OK Painter, You're gonna need a bigger boat." Results: Perspective shifts to reveal a large rooftop swimming pool with a small fishing boat at one end. The Painter boards the boat and steers it in brief laps around the pool. Five seconds in, a shark fin appears above the water; three seconds later, a specimen of Carcharodon carcharias (great white shark) emerges and violently consumes the rear half of the boat, causing it to begin sinking. The Painter jumps overboard and swims to safety while the shark consumes the rest of the boat. Notes: On June 20th, 2000 at 06:15 EST, an illegal shark hunting vessel called the Orca █ miles off the coast of Martha's Vineyard was attacked by a male Carcharodon carcharias, compromising the rear portion of the hull and causing the vessel to sink. The three crew members of the Orca were rescued by Coast Guard vessels patrolling the area, and were apprehended by law enforcement when they arrived on land. Comment: This is the first time something happened outside of Japan. Perhaps it was because Jaws is an American film? If so, then the locations of anomalous events may depend on the origin of the work referenced by the phrase. We must definitely look into this further. -Dr. Yamamoto Test 04— 07/16/01, 23:03 Player: Researcher Amano Input: "OK Painter, That is one big pile of shit." Result: An orange Triceratops appears on the rooftop where it feeds on several potted plants. After finishing its meal, the Triceratops defecates loudly, covering the center of the rooftop. It walks back down the access hatch as the Painter pinches its nose. Notes: On July 16, 2001, at 06:36 PST, a complete fossil of Triceratops prorsus was discovered next to a pile of coprolite weighing approximately 1814.369 kilograms in the backyard of film director Steven Spielberg's mansion in Los Angeles, California. Comment: Well, this certainly seems to confirm my suspicions. I must admit I am interested in running a few more tests just to see how what kinds of weird things happen. Let's just try not to cause any international crises! -Dr. Yamamoto Test 05— 07/19/01, 03:00 Player: Researcher Sakamoto Input: "OK Painter, The last Metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at peace." Result: The Painter morphs into a tall humanoid figure wearing an orange space suit with a green arm cannon. The figure kneels in front of a green jellyfish-like organism in a glass container and a draconic figure appears, seizing the container and attacking the Painter. The Painter fires several missiles at it before it flies away. Notes: On July 19, 2001, at 03:33, an unidentified orange spaceship was seen approaching the International Space Station. Surveillance cameras onboard recorded [DATA EXPUNGED] resulting in the deaths of all scientists on board. The orange-suited individual was unable to be apprehended, but escaped in the same spaceship from which they arrived. At 03:36, the entire space station exploded. Two unidentified life forms were also seen escaping the explosion. Comment: Is it just me or did the person in the orange space suit look like a woman? -Researcher Sakamoto Comment: Goddamnit. -Dr. Yamamoto Footnotes 1. All players were individuals classified as hikikomori (social recluses) by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. This may explain why the game was not more widespread. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3781" by stoymyboy, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3782	safe	Theodore Roosevelt wearing SCP-3782 pre-containment. Item #: SCP-3782 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3782 is kept in a standard containment safe in Site-39. Testing is strictly prohibited in experiments that may result in the death of the wearer or damage of SCP-3782. Information concerning SCP-3782 and its history may only be known to those with Level 4 or higher security clearance. Description: SCP-3782 is a pair of C-bridge style pince-nez eyeglasses whose original owner was the 26th President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt. Scratches can be seen in both lenses, but they are otherwise undamaged despite their age. When an individual puts on SCP-3782, they are perceived by others to be the last person who died while wearing the object (henceforth referred to as SCP-3782-1). As of the acquisition of the object on 06/05/2004, the current SCP-3782-1 is the 40th President of the United States, Ronald Reagan. The illusory effect of SCP-3782 extends only to visual and auditory perception. Physical contact with the wearer may result in minor disruption of the effect due to differences in height and figure. While SCP-3782 cannot be seen when active, it is still possible for it to be removed by normal means. Doing so will deactivate it and the wearer will appear as they were before putting it on. Discovery: SCP-3782's anomalous effects were alluded to on 05/20/2004 during one of SCP-1867's recollections of its time with President Roosevelt. It had remarked that it visited President Roosevelt two weeks after his attempted assassination on October 14th, 19121, mentioning that Roosevelt did not remember any of their past meetings in addition to changes in behavior. Despite the validity of SCP-1867's claims, a general consensus among site staff led to a request for an in-depth investigation of the American government and past cabinet officials. The request was approved with implanted agents being notified on 05/24/2004. On 06/05/2004, Agent Mallory, an embedded agent in the White House security staff, witnessed the exchange of an eyeglass case between an unknown individual and Treasury Secretary John W. Snow. Mallory followed Secretary Snow as he placed the case containing SCP-3782 into a lockbox kept under his desk. Later, Mallory returned to the lockbox and recovered the object from it as well as an accompanying document (See Document 3782-I). + Document 3782-I - Access Granted Document 3782-I: The following document was recovered along with SCP-3782. All acting replacements are required to sign this document at the moment of receiving their duties and must return the property in question (the eyeglasses) to the acting Secretary of the Treasury. Failure to do so is a direct violation of their duty and will be met with severe punishment. Replacements may be called upon again for future public addresses. Theodore Roosevelt Jr. - Death by a gunshot wound, October 14, 1912. Acting replacement is Herman Morrison, age 41. Instructed to return the glasses should Roosevelt lose the 1912 Election or should he be able to complete a presidential term. John Calvin Coolidge Jr. - Death by pneumonia, November 30th, 1924. Acting replacement is Charles Lambley, age 38. Instructed to return the glasses should he fail to be re-elected or after his second term. Harry S. Truman - Death by a self-inflicted gunshot wound, August 29th, 1945. Acting replacement is Samuel Bridge, age 48. Instructed to return the glasses should he fail to be re-elected or after his second term. Richard Milhous Nixon - Death by a gunshot wound, August 7th, 1974. Acting replacement is Fredrick Thomas, age 37. Instructed to return the glasses after delivering an address of resignation to the American public. Ronald Wilson Reagan - Death by a gunshot wound, March 30th, 1981. Acting replacement is Lawrence Mayford, age 45. Instructed to return the glasses should he fail to be re-elected or after his second term. Interview 3782.4: For the purposes of clarifying the circumstances of Nixon's death and the actions taken by his replacement, a former federal agent (Harold Terring) assigned to guard service of Presidents Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon was brought in for an interview. Terring was both confirmed to have been involved in SCP-3782's use and easily reached for an interview. It was conducted on 08/18/2004 by Agent Mallory. <Begin Log> Mallory: First, I'd like to thank you for your service, Mr. Terring. Terring: Oh, err, you're welcome. Mallory: I'd like to speak to you about your personal experiences with the glasses. In the document we recovered with them, President Nixon is mentioned and we'd like you to shed some light on their use. Terring: Teddy's glasses. Right. I've only seen them used once. From what I understand, most people only see them put on once, if ever. Otherwise, they were kept away, even from us in the secret service. Mallory: When did you see them? The glasses, I mean. Terring: [brief pause] It was during Watergate. A lot of politicians were in deep, you know. Nixon was one of them. I remember being in the room when they sat him down. Agnew and Will Simon were the only ones I recognized. I was told to guard the door. Mallory: Sat him down? Terring: Yes, that's right. They sat him down to talk. They tried to convince him to resign. Things were getting out of hand and they knew that Nixon was involved, no one could deny that. He did this to himself, and they wanted him to give it up. He'd already lost his influence with the Republicans. Mallory: What did Nixon say? Terring: He refused. He swore he could dissolve the whole thing, falsify it. He thought he had the power to lie to America and they would eat it up. The cabinet wasn't having it. So Mr. Simon got out the glasses. If they couldn't get him to do what they wanted, they'd find someone who would. <End Log> Closing Notes: Nixon is believed to be the only president treated in this manner. However, this cannot be clarified for presidents preceding Nixon, as all listed replacements are confirmed to be deceased, with the exception of Lawrence Mayford. A formal request has been submitted for the arrest and interrogation of Mayford as a result. Interview 3782.6: Below is an excerpt from an interview with Lawrence Mayford, the listed replacement for former President Ronald Reagan. The interview was conducted on 09/30/2004, two days after the detainment of May due to his initial resistance to comply, with Agent Mallory leading the discussion. <Begin Log> Mallory: Hello, again, May. Security staff informed me that you were more willing to tell us something. Mayford: That'd be right. Mallory: Good. The sooner you answer some questions, the— Mayford: Sooner I get released, yeah yeah, I get it. God, you're a broken record. [brief pause] Sorry. I just get a little stir crazy. I don't do well with staring at the same walls, you know? Mallory: I understand. Let's agree to make this brief then. Now, what happened to Reagan? Mayford: You already know what happened to Reagan. He was shot and killed by that one guy. Hinckley. Thankfully, he didn't bite it right away, so they slipped the glasses on him and allowed him to pass.2 They picked me to replace him. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited to be the next president. Mallory: I can imagine. It's an entertaining thought to be able to have that much influence over a country. Mayford: [chuckles] You'd think so, but that wasn't the plan for me. No, I was just meant to echo the Congress. They'd plan out the rest of my term and I'd have to go along with it. Mallory: Why wouldn't they allow the vice to accept the position, then? Surely they'd get just as much done that way. Mayford: Sure, but the vice president wasn't specifically selec— [coughs] [brief silence] Mallory: Mr. Mayford, I thought we had an understanding. Tell us what you know, and you'll be allowed to leave. Anything you say here is confidential and can only be reviewed by Foundation staff. Mayford: [sighs] Right. It's a reflex. They make it perfectly clear that this can't get out. [deep breath, followed by a long exhale] I, like all the others, were specifically picked by certain members of Congress. Those members of Congress are the only ones that know about the glasses. You know about the Dinner Table Bargain, right? Mallory: I'm familiar. Mayford: It's a lot like that. They3 get together in secret, discuss what actions they are going to take, and then plant the ideas into the other government officials to push it forward. The rest is up to me to make sure it goes through. Mallory: Do you know what things they've compromised on? Mayford: Hell, could be all of my actions in a term, could be none of them. I don't know what they do behind closed doors. Kind of the point, don't you think? Mallory: Seems that way. Have they ever made it clear as to what "severe punishment" refers to? We saw in the document you signed. Mayford: I honestly don't know. But I'll tell you one thing: I wasn't eager to find out, and I doubt any of the others were, either. <End Log> Closing Notes: An investigation into Mayford's history has shown that he has never held any formal position in a government agency or military branch, making him considerably underqualified for any political position with a widespread influence. However, an archived criminal record was recovered listing several major felonies. Addendum 1: Investigations made into the other replacements noted in Document 3782-I have yielded similar results to Lawrence Mayford's background. Morrison, Lambley, Bridge, and Thomas were all confirmed to have no prior government experience and a hidden criminal record. It is possible that GoI-1115 selects these individuals with the promise of pardoning them and burying their criminal history, though there is no clear evidence that directly supports this case. Footnotes 1. This was also noted as unusual, as SCP-1867 has displayed a willful ignorance of events past 1910. 2. This statement cannot be confirmed to be true or false. 3. These individuals (hereby designated as GoI-1115) have not been identified. Mayford claims to have had no contact with any of the aforementioned individuals.
SCP-3783	euclid	Item #: SCP-3783 Special Containment Procedures: Provisional Site-78 has been established to contain SCP-3783. The facility is to operate under the guise of a wildlife research facility. SCP-3783 is kept in an observation dome with an airlock chamber installed and is to be constantly monitored. No open flame is to be brought within the dome. Automated drones are to be used to directly approach SCP-3783. SCP-3783 is implanted with a GPS tracker that is monitored by automated systems. Testing is only to be performed by the approval of Level 4 personnel. During testing, no fewer than 6 armed guards are to be present, three of which must be on catwalks above the containment chamber. SCP-3783-1 specimens developed from testing are to be analyzed, then transferred to cryogenic storage at Site-87's Biology Wing. UPDATE: All testing has been suspended. SCP-3783-1 instances found are to be incinerated. A 7 meter wall has been erected around Provisional Site-78. Security teams are to be on guard outside with net launchers which are to be used to tangle SCP-3783's legs. Torches are to be activated on the walls during a breach. See Incident 3783 for further details. Description: SCP-3783 is a single-roomed log cabin that is located in the wilderness of Siberia. Inside it is decorated with furs,1 has one rocking chair, a fireplace, a wardrobe, a chest,2 and a cauldron. It has two windows on the sides and a single wooden door allowing for entry. Beneath SCP-3783 are four fleshy limbs located at the corners that terminate in three spindly clawed fingers, which resemble the toes of a domestic chicken (Gallus gallus). These limbs allow for locomotion. It estimated that each limb is 6 meters long and bend at three places. These limbs are mostly rooted beneath the surrounding soil, stationing SCP-3783 at its location (see Discovery for further information). The limbs remain dormant until hostile action is presented toward SCP-3783 directly. A limb would burst from the ground and grab a subject, which it would pull towards the inside of SCP-3783 or crush them. This response is instantly triggered when one is wielding a torch or any form of open flame. Since the construction of Provisional Site-78, SCP-3783 will at times unroot itself and wander its containment briefly. After investigating its surroundings, it would return to its original position. Any biological organisms, except for microbial, entering SCP-3783 will undergo various mutations. The resulting specimens are designated as SCP-3783-1. Instances posses a short lifespan of a week and sometimes are inflicted with lethal mutations resulting in instant death. Instances are mainly docile and would protect SCP-3783 in the event of any hostilities. Deceased organisms do not undergo any mutations within SCP-3783. See Addendum 02 for -1 instances produced from testing. Recently, it has been discovered that deceased -1 instances are able to reanimate via unknown means as long as the body is sufficiently intact. Incineration has shown to be effective in preventing a reanimated instance. See Incident 3783. Discovery: SCP-3783 was discovered after reports from several towns in Southern Russia of a "lost witch's house" wandering the wilderness. One town had sent a small armed group to hunt for it, but only one member of the party returned, a Mr. Grigori Ivanov (see Addendum 01). Nearby recovery teams responded and eventually traced SCP-3783 to its current location, rooting itself. It was found with the following sign which was tied to a nail on the door that is written in Old Russian. Out to feast. Stay out. Addendum 01: The following interview was originally spoken in Russian and has been translated. Interviewed: Mr. Gregori Ivanov Interviewer: Agent Sergio <Begin Log> Agent Sergio: Alright, please tell me what happened when you went into the forest. Mr. Ivanov: [Sigh] Well, it was getting dark and were heading East to where it was last seen. We found its tracks and followed them. Eventually, we caught our first glimpse of its silhouette from moonlight. Agent Sergio: What was it doing? Mr. Ivanov: It was just moving slowly through the trees before disappearing into the night. We quickly tried to pursue it but we lost it. That's when we decided to camp until sunrise. I tried to sleep but I was too worried, even with my trusty hunting rifle on my side. I never thought I would ever get to see a witch's house so it left me spooked. Anyway, we then started hearing the most unusual sounds from the surrounding woods. Agent Sergio: Can you describe it? Mr. Ivanov: I am not sure how to describe it. It sounded like nothing I ever heard before. Agent Sergio: Very well. Continue please. Mr. Ivanov: One of the men of the group, Roman, went to investigate the sounds despite our objections. That young fool… Agent Sergio: What happened? Mr. Ivanov: He screamed and when we caught up we found nothing, except for his broken glasses and shreds of his jacket covered in blood. We stuck together after that and returned to the camp to pack up and move forward. We heard the sound of snapping twigs and crushed leaves followed behind us. Unknowingly as we quickly tried to flee, two young men were missing. We were baffled and decided to hunt whatever was lurking in the surrounding darkness. We wondered to ourselves if it was the work of the witch's hut, but who knew. I followed behind the group as we went and we were tense. I just wanted to go home. Eventually, we stumbled upon a mangled corpse that was being eaten by…something nearby a lake. Our lanterns barely showed us what it looked like, and I was blocked by the group. I'm somewhat glad I haven't seen it for the sound of its chewing was disgusting. It quickly moved out of sight as ahead we saw the hut step forth from a row of trees as the moon was behind it, casting a silhouette of it. Agent Sergio: Then I assume your party attacked it? Mr. Ivanov: Yes, Vladimir and Dmitri ran to it with their torches to burn it. It noticed them and moved back as silhouettes of creatures came to be. The things attacked Vladimir and Dmitri, and I had a small glimpse of them from their torches. It was not enough to tell any distinct features, but they were nearly as large as dogs. Aleksey fired his Nagant3 at the creatures to help Vladimir and Dmitri. We managed to save Dmitri but Vladimir was dragged away. I could still hear him scream as the hut quickly grabbed him and slammed his body on a large rock. It then pressed on his body and there were awful cracking sounds. I could barely see it happening but it was enough to traumatize me. Such awful sounds… Then, that is when I ran. Aleksey and two other men tried to fight the beasts but I heard only their screams and gun shots. I ran and ran without rest back towards home. I was accompanied by another young man who I never had the pleasure of knowing his name. Luckily, the sun was soon to rise and I was eager to be home, away from the danger. I wish I can say the same for the young man who was with me. He just disappeared and I had not noticed. I became concerned that I was being stalked and grew paranoid. I'm glad I managed to find my way out of the forest before I went insane. [Pauses] [Sigh] We were no match for the witch's lost hut. I really wish we knew better. Agent Sergio: Well, thank you, Mr. Ivanov. Everything will be fine. <End Log> Closing Statement: Mr. Ivanov received amnestics and the SCP-3783-1 instances mentioned has not been found. Addendum 02: For a full version of all experiments, please request it from Lead Researcher Westfield. + Experiment Log 3783 - Close Experiment Log 3783 Specimen: Common house cat (Felis catus) Result: Specimen was continuously coughing and eyes became completely black. All of its body hair fell out and grew slightly in size by 0.2 meters. The end of its tail grew a poisonous stinger which connected to four venomous sacs within the torso. The skeletal structure of the specimen became cartilaginous and resembled that of a shark (Selachi). Time Elapsed: 13 seconds Specimen: Common goldfish (Carassius auratus auratus) Result: The specimen grew additional eyes along its sides as it grew 22 centimeters in length. The pupils were hexagonal in shape. Its fins grew larger and twisted to form a makeshift limb to crawl out of water. Instance was unable to breathe and expired. An underdeveloped labyrinth organ4 was found during autopsy covered in tumor-like growths. Time Elapsed: 17 seconds Specimen: Albino laboratory rat (Rattus norvegicus) Result: The skeleton of the specimen expanded through the skin, forming a rough exoskeleton around the specimen's body. The specimen grew 1 meter larger and the eyes extended from the skull on thin stalks. A pair of insect mandibles grew from the mouth as the tongue extended 30 centimeters in length and became serrated. Instance violently slammed its head on the floor of the cage it was in, and bled to death shortly afterwards. Time Elapsed: 12 seconds Specimen: Domestic dog (Canis familiaris) Result: The specimen began to howl in pain and its neck began to extend. Then large tusks began to protrude from its mouth. Stomach was found to have formed ulcers. Time Elapsed: 15 seconds Specimen: European Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) Result: Specimen immediately expired and had no visible mutations. Blood was found to be a black color and the heart increased in size by 7 centimeters. Time Elapsed: 2 seconds Specimen: D-1832 (Note: Subject was equipped with an explosive collar.) Result: Subject complained of stomach pain before long thin strands of hair began to be produced from their mouth. Teeth and nails fell out as the arms and legs grew grotesquely disproportionate. The hair was covered in an unknown enzyme that corroded flesh and moved on its own accord. Time Elapsed: 13 seconds Specimen: D-7899 (Note: Subject was equipped with an explosive collar.) Result: Subject transformed into an organism resembling a featherless chicken (Gallus gallus). Its skin was a dark red and brown color and had a wattle. The explosive collar was immediately detonated which decapitated the specimen. The head was mostly intact and the body died shortly after. Time Elapsed: 20 seconds Incident 3783: On 07/12/██, SCP-3783-1 instances in cryogenic storage at Site-87 were missing. The latches of the Cryogenic Preservation Tanks showed no signs of tampering. Two hours later at Provisional Site-78, several -1 instances were visible on the monitors surrounding SCP-3783 reanimated. Instances attempted to open the airlock and were neutralized by security teams on nearby catwalks. Meanwhile, Site-██ was reportedly attacked by reanimated -1 instances and two of which had interacted with SCP-352. The following transcript is from surveillance footage. <Begin Log> SCP-352 is sitting at the corner of its containment chamber. After 40 seconds, a vent that lead into the chamber suddenly bursts open which two -1 instances crawl out of. Simultaneously, -1 instances were attacking from Gate A at this time. One instance resembled a gastropod5 with two arm-like appendages. It quickly moves to the door and a bulbous sac on its back began to expand and bursts, covering the door with a thick mucus. The second instance was feline and resembled a bearded dragon (Pogona) which moves towards SCP-352. The instance had in its mouth what appears to be a human fetus which it places on the floor in front of SCP-352. SCP-352 reaches for the fetus and begins to devour it. SCP-352 then pats the instance's head. The instance and SCP-352 appear to briefly converse before SCP-352 stands and moves towards the instance. SCP-352 kneels down and appears to whisper to the instance. Instance then nods its head and returns into the vent as SCP-352 stands idly while facing the camera for the remainder of the footage. <End Log> The SCP-3783-1 instance in the footage was later found at Provisional Site-78 within SCP-3783's chamber. It was found deceased in front of SCP-3783 which buried the instance with a clump of dirt. Following the incident, SCP-3783 has became more active and attempts to escape. In response, security has been upgraded at Provisional Site-78 and Site-██. Footnotes 1. The furs have been identified as belonging to Eurasian brown bears (Ursus actos actos), red foxes (Vulpes vulpes), and red deers (Cervus elaphus). 2.

SCP-3784	safe	Item #: SCP-3784 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3784 is to be kept in a high-security storage vault at Site 76. Testing with SCP-3784 may only be conducted within a hermetically sealed chamber with an automatic fire suppression system. Exposure to SCP-3784 is to be limited to D-class personnel, with preference given to D-class with the lowest available SEC1 rating. All testing proposals must first be submitted to the Ethics Committee for approval. Description: SCP-3784 is a small, ornate oil lamp, perpetually filled with shark liver oil2. When SCP-3784 is within an unbroken line of sight of at least one human3 in REM sleep, SCP-3784 will kindle itself if not already lit, and initiate an INCUBUS event. Test subjects experiencing an INCUBUS event will appear to be undergoing sleep paralysis to outside observers. The flame of SCP-3784 will begin to anomalously flicker in such a manner that the shadows it casts depict scenes from the subject's sleep paralysis episode. This makes SCP-3784 a severe fire hazard during INCUBUS events, and it has been known to light flammable objects up to 120 centimeters away. Based upon both the shadows cast by SCP-3784 and post-INCUBUS event interviews, a convocation of both humanoid and non-humanoid entities will typically surround the subject and begin to enact some kind of farcical debate with each other. The first known example of such revolved around what was the best method for preparing a human being for consumption, resulting in 13 different segments of the subject's body being removed and prepared in a different manner, then force fed to them. Other examples include rearranging internal organs to gauge how they function, testing the holding capacity of the digestive system, and replacing the skin with a silk body stocking. Test subjects who have undergone INCUBUS events have all reported that their experiences during sleep paralysis were indistinguishable from reality, and consequently all have suffered from severe Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and insomnia. Recovery: SCP-3784 was discovered during a raid on a Marshall, Carter, & Dark warehouse in Glasgow, Scotland, along with other objects believed to be the personal property of Dark. It was found with the following note attached to it: From One Brother To Another A Little Piece Of My Kingdom To Darken Yours Mind That It Doesn't Singe The Drapes Possible connections to SCP-4116 are being investigated. Footnotes 1. Skills, Experience, and Cooperation. 2. Oil removed from the lamp does not retain any anomalous properties and may be used or disposed of safely. 3. Testing with non-human animals has been inconclusive. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3784" by DrChandra, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3785	euclid	SCP-3785 - Jasper's Hill ▸ More by this Author ◂ {$comments2} F.A.Q. {$doesthisfixthebug} Item#: 3785 Level3 Secondary Class: none Disruption Class: vlam Risk Class: danger link to memo Access road to SCP-3785. Image recovered from cell phone footage. See Addendum 3785.4 (3785.AV.01) for details. Special Containment Procedures: The access point to SCP-3785 is to be barricaded and monitored by automatic surveillance equipment. Individuals attempting to access SCP-3785 are to be apprehended and turned over to local authorities. Foundation personnel are not to pass the established 1.6km marker unless required for testing. Description: SCP-3785 is a location accessible only by a dirt road leading off Georgia HW 166. Attempts to access SCP-3785 by any means other than this road will invariably result in being unable to find SCP-3785 at all. Individuals who stray off the dirt road and attempt to return to it will be unable to locate it again. The road cannot be accessed by air. The road is approximately 2km in length, and exits into SCP-3785. SCP-3785 is a roughly 90m wide, indeterminately long section of clearcut hills, bordered on either side by a thick forest, through which large high-voltage power line stanchions run. It is perpetually night within SCP-3785, and the temperature stays a consistent 22.5° C. Crisscrossing SCP-3785 are numerous dirt tracks, such that an off-road vehicle might use them for recreational purposes. Several crude wooden signs bearing the words “Jasper’s Hill” with an arrow pointing north dot the dirt paths across SCP-3785. Attempting to travel north within SCP-3785 is extremely hazardous due to the terrain, which becomes increasingly difficult to navigate as the hills and valleys dramatically increase in size and complexity, to the point of impossibility. Because of this, exploratory teams have been unable to reach the north end of SCP-3785. SCP-3785-1 is the group designation for a white late-1980s Chevrolet Blazer on a lifted suspension and its driver. The true nature of SCP-3785-1 has not yet been determined, though information gathered within SCP-3785 has identified the driver of the vehicle as “Jasper” of “Jasper’s Hill”. SCP-3785-1 is capable of easily navigating the impossible terrain of SCP-3785, and seemingly does so to stalk and pursue individuals who become lost within SCP-3785. Addendum 3785.1: Discovery The existence of SCP-3785 was part of a well known folk tale in the region, which typically told of three children who become lost in the woods and enter a dark clearing called “Jasper’s Place”. The children then become lost, and are pursued by an unseen individual who eventually finds them and “hangs them upside down” at the end of the story. However, it was not until a group of twelve young adults disappeared under mysterious circumstances in the area that Foundation personnel became involved. After three weeks, one of the individuals was found nearly 2km from the entrance to SCP-3785, in a state of severe shock. The survivor, a 20-year-old black male from Villa Rica, GA, managed to communicate to first responders that he was still being pursued by “Jasper”, and that the other missing individuals had all been “hung upside down”. At the sight of headlights from nearby vehicles passing by, the individual began to panic and scream about “Jasper” having found him and being unable to hide, and had to be sedated. After law enforcement officials were unable to access SCP-3785 by any means other than the dirt access road described by the survivor, and once the anomalous characteristics of SCP-3785 were discovered, Foundation personnel from Atlanta worked to contain the scene and administer amnestics, as necessary, while working to prepare a team to attempt to find the remaining missing persons. Addendum 3785.2: Exploration Log I + Access Addendum - Close Addendum Note: The following is the audio transcript of an exploratory attempt within SCP-3785 by three members of MTF D-15 “County Line”, D-15 Teter, Jackknife, and Norse. The purpose of their mission was to ascertain the location of and recover eleven missing individuals. [BEGIN LOG] D-15 Teter: Alright y’all. Let’s go. D-15 Norse: It’s getting dark in here. D-15 Teter: Yeah, Command, I can confirm it’s starting to get dark. Not like we’ve got too much tree cover, but like it’s just nighttime. Can you confirm the time? Command: Copy that, Teter. It is currently 1405 hours, local time. D-15 Teter: That’s what I thought. Way too dark for this time of day. Team continues on for an additional 2km before reaching the opening into SCP-3785. D-15 Jackknife: You guys hear that? D-15 Norse: Yeah, that’s freaky. It’s really quiet in here. All we can hear is the wind (pauses) and the occasional bird. D-15 Jackknife: And it’s really fucking dark. Command: Copy that, team. Proceed with caution. Team activates their shoulder mounted lights, and proceed north across the clearing. D-15 Teter: Command, status report. Command: Copy, Teter. D-15 Teter: We’re in some big clearing here, like you see where they’ve got power lines strung, only there are trees on this end, and… it’s hard to make out what’s much further north than where we are. There are stars in the sky, but they’re pretty dim and, uh… not any that I’m familiar with. We can see some really faint lights up ahead too, and a lot of hills, some rough dirt tracks. Nothing particularly unusual right now. (Pauses) Wish we’d brought some vehicles, though. Going to be hard to get around here. Command: Copy, Teter. Continue on as far as you can safely, and return when you feel you can’t advance any further. D-15 Teter: Copy that. Team continues on for a short time. D-15 Norse: Look over here. Footprints. (Pauses) Probably a few different sets. Think these are our missing kids? D-15 Teter: Hard to say. Look pretty fresh, though. (Pauses) Huh. Check that out. D-15 Jackknife: What? D-15 Teter: That sign. D-15 Norse: Command, we’ve got a sign here that says… “Jasper’s Hill”, and it’s got an arrow pointing… north, on it. Command: Copy that, Norse. Anything else unusual where you are? D-15 Norse: Negative. Looks pretty clear. Command: Copy. Carry on. Team continues north, passing several other similar signs and what appear to be small campsites and remnants of fires at the tops of hills. On the top of a particularly tall hill, the team pauses. D-15 Teter: You see that out there? D-15 Norse: Where? D-15 Jackknife: Yeah, way over there. Is that a car? D-15 Teter: Sort of looks like it, doesn’t it? It’s not moving very fast. (Pauses) Command, the landscape here is getting really unusual. The hill we’re on top of is taller than it should be, and it drops off pretty dramatically past here. I can see, shit, uh… maybe a half dozen other unusually large hills past here? And past that, maybe three or four clicks out, there are some headlights. They’re just sort of… creeping along out there. D-15 Norse: Hey, they’ve stopped. D-15 Teter: So I think we’re going to need to start to backtrack, see if there are any side roads away from here, or— D-15 Jackknife: Shh, hang on. Look. D-15 Norse: Uh, Command, those lights just flashed at us. It’s turning. (Pauses) It’s coming towards us. Command: Copy that. How far away is this vehicle? D-15 Teter: Sort of hard to judge. The landscape gets really strange past this point. I think it’s pretty far away. It’s— (pauses) the bird noise. It’s stopped. There’s something else there now. Command: What is it? D-15 Teter: It’s like a person making… cat noises. Er, like, “merw, merw”. Just over and over again. I don’t know where it’s coming from. Command: Copy that, Teter. Go ahead and head back, we’re going to see about getting you some vehicles before trying this again. D-15 Teter: Affirmative. D-15 Jackknife: Thank god. My feet are fucking killing me. Team proceeds to head back towards the access point. D-15 Norse: Teter, over here. There’s something by this tree. D-15 Teter: Yeah? D-15 Norse: It’s a cell phone. D-15 Teter: Huh. Yeah, go ahead and grab that. We’ll let the lab process it. (Pauses) Anybody seen those lights in a while? D-15 Jackknife: Not since we came back down that ridge. (Pauses) That weird cat sound is gone, though. D-15 Norse: Finally. D-15 Teter: Hang tight. I can hear something else. You hear that? What is that? D-15 Jackknife: I don’t know, honestly. It’s really weird, it’s like I can just make it out. (Pauses) Yeah, that’s weird. It’s like it’s really close to us, but I can barely hear it. It’s muffled? Sounds sort of like a lot of- D-15 Norse: (Pauses) Oh, fuck. Look up there. D-15 Jackknife: Oh my god. D-15 Teter: Wha— shit, the headlights. Run! Turn off your lights, run! Command: Teter? Teter, what is it? D-15 Teter: That noise (heavy breathing) the power lines (heavy breathing) they’re on the power lines (heavy breathing) the kids we were (pauses) looking for, they’re hung upside down above (heavy breathing) it’s right behind us. Command: Copy, we have an extraction team ready at the access point. Command: Teter? Do you read us? D-15 Jackknife: (Engine noise, then shouting, and then silence) D-15 Teter: Fuck! Command: D-15 team? Do you copy? Silence. Command: Do you copy? A short time passes in silence as Command attempts to reestablish communications with the D-15 team. D-15 Teter: Come on. We’re almost there. Command: D-15, do you copy? D-15 Norse: Command? Command: We read you. What happened? D-15 Norse: It hit Jackknife and drove into the woods. We heard a voice as it came near us, and it was talking to us, but we don’t think it could see us. It’s gone back over the ridge now, and (pauses) I can’t see it. Jack? Jack! Command: Repeat, Jackknife is MIA? D-15 Teter: Affirmative. Command, I think we found the missing subjects too, but (pauses) I don’t think they’re recoverable. We need to get Jack, we’ll stay here until- Command: Negative, Teter. Proceed to the extraction point, let’s get you out of there. We’ll get another team in to recover Jackknife. Remaining members of D-15 team are successfully recovered at the access point. Remaining team members are in good health, aside from minor scrapes and bruises and signs of stress. The cell phone discovered by the D-15 team is confirmed to have belonged to one of the missing individuals, and information recovered from the device is available below. [END LOG] Addendum 3785.3: Exploration Log II + Access Addendum - Close Addendum Note: The following is an audio/video transcription of logs taken by members of the Atlanta-9 “Dirty Birds” extraction team. The ATL-9 team was prepared to extract the D-15 team in the event of a critical breakdown of the mission. The ATL-9 team was mobilized shortly after the successful extraction of the two remaining members of the D-15 team. The team consisted of three members, ATL-9 Sherman, Diego, and Junipero. [BEGIN LOG] Image taken from recovery team video recorder. ATL-9 Sherman: We have reached the clearing. Command: Roger. Jackknife’s locator is reading a distance of 400m. Be aware of the hostile, unidentified entity that attacked the D-15 team. ATL-9 Sherman: Roger. Let’s go. ATL-9 team proceeds forward quickly, following the trail identified by D-15 Teters. From Diego’s shoulder mounted camera, dim stars are visible in the sky above. In the distance, engine sounds can be faintly heard. ATL-9 Junipero: Jack? Jack, can you hear us, buddy? We’re coming to get you. D-15 Jackknife: (Muffled noises) Command: Extraction team, be advised we are receiving communications from Jackknife. ATL-9 Sherman: Roger. Image taken from recovery team video recorder. The team continues forward for several more minutes. As they come over a large hill, the power line stanchions become visible. Strung across the high tension lines are numerous figures, bound in ropes, hanging upside down by nooses from the lines. The majority of the figures are unmoving. One figure is struggling violently. At the base of the stanchion is SCP-3785-1. ATL-9 Sherman: Fuck. Alright, we need to get up that tower. (Pauses) I’m going to lead the truck away. You two get up the tower and recover Jackknife, then we’ll rendezvous back at the extraction point. Give me the heads up as soon as you’ve got him out, because I’m going to book it out of here. ATL-9 Diego: You got it. ATL-9 Sherman separates from the group. Following the crest of the hill, he moves further away from the stanchion and SCP-3785-1. As soon as ATL-9 Diego and Junipero are in position, ATL-9 Sherman lights a flare. ATL-9 Sherman: Over here, you cocksucker! There is the sound of distorted laughter and high pitched screeching as SCP-3785-1’s engine revs loudly and the entity moves away from the stanchion and towards ATL-9 Sherman. As soon as the entity is over the hill, ATL-9 Diego and Junipero move towards the stanchion and begin to scale it. As they do, the writhing figure wrapped in rope and caught in a noose above becomes more animated; in the brief instance it is visible on Diego’s camera, the eyes of D-15 Jackknife are visible, though the rest of his face is obscured by rope. As the two men climb, more of the surrounding area becomes visible. From their vantage point, the world beneath them is a single line of clearing and similar power lines amidst a world covered in dark forest. The sky above them, still black and darted with dim stars, appears to shimmer somewhat. Further away, the ground appears extremely distorted and twisted, looping up on itself and twisting over in ways that do not conform with standard geometry. Eventually, both ATL-9 Diego and Junipero reach the top of the stanchion. Using a rope to secure himself, Junipero sidles out towards Jackknife. Image taken from recovery team video recorder. ATL-9 Junipero: Hang on, Jack. Give me just a second to cut through this, and we’ll be out of here. Junipero produces a serrated knife and begins to saw at the length of rope. From Diego’s point of view, Jackknife appears to be watching Junipero intently. Below, the sound of engine revving can be heard in the trees, followed shortly afterwards by a small explosion (later determined to be a grenade thrown by ATL-9 Sherman). Suddenly, there is a low, rumbling sound with no apparent source. The power lines shake, causing Junipero to halt progress momentarily in order to maintain his grip on the line. After the rumbling ceases, Junipero continue sawing. ATL-9 Junipero: Hang on, hang on… I’ve almost… got- As ATL-9 Junipero saws through the last fibers of the rope, the noose and bindings come loose from Jackknife. The agent coughs and reaches out towards Junipero, but begins to fall upwards, away from the lines. ATL-9 Diego: Fuck! ATL-9 Junipero: Jesus Christ! Diego! ATL-9 Diego readies another length of rope and throws it towards Jackknife, missing him by a meter. The low rumbling sound is heard again, this time mixed with more distorted laughter from below them, as Jackknife continues to fall upwards. D-15 Jackknife: Holy shit! Holy shit! Help! Fuck! Help! Somebody, please, fuck! Help! Jackknife continues to ascend. From below, the distorted laughter grows louder, and is cut by a shrill, piercing sound that is vaguely feline in nature. The low rumbling begins to pulse. ATL-9 Junipero: Diego? What do we do? ATL-9 Diego: Goddammit! D-15 Jackknife: Holy shit you guys, holy shit, I can’t, I can’t- (pauses) Oh. Above the two men on the power line, the dim stars in the sky begin to change. They grow slightly brighter and twist in on themselves, revealing many thousands (if not hundreds of thousands) of large, vaguely octopoid eyes that stretch from horizon to horizon. Jackknife is seen twisting around to face the sky. ATL-9 Junipero: Jack! D-15 Jackknife: I- (pauses) I’m- (pauses) it’s everywhe- Jackknife is cut short as his body distends dramatically. As it does, the eyes in the sky glow a dark red, and then Jackknife’s body comes apart suddenly. The remaining viscera continues to ascend into the sky. After a short time, the low rumbling sound subsides, as does the distorted laughter from below. ATL-9 Sherman: June, Diego, do you copy? Have you recovered Jackknife? The entity in the truck has disappeared into the woods. ATL-9 Diego: Copy. We lost Jackknife. Continue to rendezvous point, we’ll meet you there. All members of ATL-9 team recovered from within SCP-3785. Due to the hazardous conditions within SCP-3785, further manned exploration is temporarily restricted. The nature of the entity observed in the sky above SCP-3785 is unknown.

ID #: 3785.AV.16 Document Type: Video Length: 23 minutes Description: Camera light activates, and camera is close to the ground. As the camera pans up, the face of the camera person is briefly visible, but cannot be made out. The camera person moves slowly down a dirt trail for a short distance, before coming out into the clearing again. Illuminated by moonlight only, a severely distorted landscape can be seen, which appears to be a canyon of impossible geological features, crisscrossed by dirt roads that at some points twist and turn upside down in a non-Euclidian fashion. The camera moves along the top of a very steep wall of the canyon, and looks down below. No bottom is visible, but several indistinct lights can be seen moving slowly in the darkness. Suddenly, there is the short but distinct sound of a loud engine rev, and the camera jerks to the right, where an impossibly large hill is visible in the darkness. Somehow, despite the hill seeming to be larger than the entirety of SCP-3785, its entire face is visible to the camera. On top of the hill, a single pair of bright headlights sit motionless, while a fire burns nearby. Down the hill, a single humanoid figure slowly drags two other humanoid figures towards a series of nooses. The standing figure then positions the two prone figures into the nooses by their necks, and the engine revs again. As the headlights at the top of the hill begin to back away, the two prone figures begin to rise slowly. As they rise, they begin to invert and hang up instead of down1. The forms can be seen writhing and struggling. The headlights back out of view, and the individuals (now hanging upside down) continue to rise until they are above the power lines. The camera pans across to see dozens of other figures at first, and then potentially hundreds, all hanging upside down above the power lines. A male voice can be heard across the expanse of the hill, heavily distorted but clearly laughing and speaking rapidly and incoherently. The camera pans back towards the humanoid figure on the hill, which is now looking up towards the hanging figures. There is a low rumbling noise, and something happens in the sky, just off-screen. Suddenly, the figure jerks and look towards the camera. The camera pulls away quickly and the light goes out. For the next fifteen minutes of video, the only sounds that can be heard are the short, heavy breaths of the camera person, the same low pulsing sound, and the intermittent screaming of the humanoid figure. Image ID# 3785.AV.17. ID #: 3785.AV.17 Document Type: Picture Description: A dark male figure, illuminated by a dim light off camera. No other context is given.

SCP-3786	euclid	SCP-3786 captured in a rare moment napping with its head exposed. Item #: SCP-3786 Special Containment Procedures: Entity is entirely immobilised within the former Lianggu Bioweapons Laboratory Facility due to its sheer mass and locomotive limitations. It is to be fed twice daily with 250 kilograms of starch-and-protein mixture, with nutritional ratios adjusted accordingly. Medical and behavioural checkups must be conducted once every six months by a Foundation cryptozoologist. Description: SCP-3786 designates an amorphous mammalian organism located within the former Lianggu Bioweapons Laboratory facility near ██████████, in the Heilongjiang province of China. Due to its sheer size, detailed measurements of the organism's size and weight have been impossible. Ground-penetrating radar and thermal imagery estimate that it occupies the entire first floor of the facility along with an undetermined number of its sub-basements, with an estimated weight of ██,███,███ kilograms. Despite its physical abnormalities, SCP-3786 is genetically identifiable as a domestic dog, Canis lupus familiaris. Unlike non-anomalous dogs, SCP-3786 is primarily characterised by its ability to rapidly reconfigure its skeletomuscular and organ tissues to fill available space. This functions as its main mode of locomotion through the facility as it generates and retracts its mass. Owing to the extraordinary metabolism rate required for this activity, SCP-3786 maintains a consistently high body temperature of 50-60 degrees Celsius; periods of high activity, such as when giving chase to prey, can cause its temperature to spike even higher, to the extent of heating its habitat's surroundings to a recorded high of 87 degrees Celsius. SCP-3786 is believed to be moderately intelligent and self-aware of its anomalous properties. Upon initial encounter, it was observed using its knowledge of the facility's extensive tunnels and ventilation systems to ambush Foundation agents, retreating from sight when observed. When the opportunity arises, SCP-3786 can attack by manifesting its head and delivering powerful bites to the prey's flanks or the throat, causing death within seconds or minutes. However, it seems to avoid using this method, likely due to the possibility of exposing its single head to harm. Instead, most prey is incapacitated by strangulation via engulfing, a process that spares more mobile or aggressive prey but seems to be more energy-efficient for SCP-3786. The former Lianggu Bioweapons Laboratory Facility circa 1985. The exact origins of SCP-3786 are unknown. The Lianggu Bioweapons Laboratory Facility was known to have been constructed sometime between 1936 and 1941 under the supervision of the Imperial Japanese Army's 異常事例調査局 / Ijō Jirei Chōsa-kyoku (en: Anomalous Matters Examination Agency) following the occupation of Manchuria. Surviving files indicate that the facility was known to the IJA as a canine breeding and training facility, albeit with certain special logistical requirements: a 1942 invoice detailed the delivery of "sealed marine organism tissue samples", 300 "Congolese dog eggs", and 200 litres of [REDACTED]. The facility appears to have been unknown to Chinese authorities until 1961, when a review of declassified war documents revealed the existence of previously-unknown IJA facilities surrounding Harbin. Investigating the ruins, the first contact team likely encountered SCP-3786 shortly after entering the main laboratory building. Their remains were not found by the backup containment team. Establishing a regular supply of nutrition has since significantly calmed SCP-3786's aggressive tendencies. When well-fed, SCP-3786 is largely sedentary, enjoying the occasional chasing of small mammals released into the containment area. Since then, SCP-3786 has been effectively domesticated through extensive interactions with Foundation cryptozoologists, and responds to the name 小胖 / Xiǎo Pàng1.

All observed changes to the properties of this anomaly will appear as addenda materials. Only the most recent version of this anomaly's containment procedures is viable. The original 30 June 2021 documentation is as follows. ▷ Access Archived Containment Procedures ◁ △ Retract Archived Containment Procedures △ SPECIAL CONTAINMENT PROCEDURES [OUTDATED] Foundation personnel within the Parazoology Division currently operate in various tiers of the U.S. equine industry. This measure exists to ensure: That horse breeding continues as a controlled element. That further progression of the anomaly can be mitigated. Analysts are to track domesticated horse populations for anomalous behaviours such as uncharacteristic or unprovoked aggression, deviance from feeding habits, and deviance from natural breeding cycles. Known feral horse populations are to be monitored for abnormal activity. To maintain the well-being of baseline horses, personnel are to avoid sterilization efforts within current populations and any restrictive actions taken to manage overpopulation. Instead, personnel are to disperse hormonal agent 762988-16-7 within horse populations. 762988-16-7 targets horse endocrine systems to promote docility and extend breeding cycles. No known means of containing SCP-3787-ε exist at present. The Site-82 Operations Command Office is, however, accepting containment initiatives. KETER-Class remains the classification of this anomaly until satisfactory levels of containment are met. Description: SCP-3787 is a deviance to the natural behaviour of domesticated and free-roaming horse (Equus ferus caballus) populations in the Southern and Southwestern United States. SCP-3787 manifests as a gestation period 8–10 times more rapid than the baseline horse-breeding cycle. Within affected mares, the baseline gestation period of 11–12 months shortens to 30–45 days from conception to birth. As a result, up to 10 times as many foals are born. Growth rates of this size are unsustainable and constitute a significant risk to the equine industry's ability to maintain control. This breeding cycle does not adversely affect pregnant mares or resultant newborn foals. Newborn foals exhibit physiological properties similar to their non-anomalous counterparts. Foals also develop within pregnant mares despite lacking the necessary sustenance over the accelerated developmental period. SCP-3787-1 is an anomalous increase in horse aggression in free-roaming horse populations. Examples of aggression include: Unprovoked hostilities toward horses outside a constituent pack. The active killing of most or all members of a feral horse pack by that pack's dominant stallion. The cannibalization of foals as a show of dominance. Horses displaying SCP-3787-1 behaviour while hunting for prey. Image captured remotely. (Hover to enlarge.) Increase in horse hostility has also extended into normal horse feeding patterns. Feral horse packs affected by this anomaly perform organized attacks on other wildlife, escalating to a point in which affected horses ignore herbivorous feeding habits. These attacks occur even though horse jaw structures and digestive systems are biologically unsuited for meat consumption. This manner of aggression has contributed to the advancement of horses to the top of the food chain in many areas. SCP-3787-1 began in newborn foals affected by SCP-3787. It has since transferred to an unknown number of horse populations of various ages, according to a geometric infection model. In addition, this anomaly has developed in the same period and area as a memetic form of equinophobia, designated SCP-3787-ε.. equinophobia: An irrational fear of horses. SCP-3787-ε is an intense fear of horses in humans without previous basis to do so. Researchers hypothesize SCP-3787-ε manifested because of a marked increase of horse population numbers, which caused an increase of equine concepts in the human consciousness. Persons may be unaware they have been affected by this anomaly until their re-exposure to the concept of horses through forms of media or personal conversations that reference horses. SCP-3787-ε occurs in suburban areas, urban centres, and within populations far from rural communities. More specifically, SCP-3787-ε occurs within populations with little access to the equine.. Domesticated stud farms are an example of a resource unreachable to populations in these kinds of communities. Populations interested in thoroughbred horseracing remain unaffected An estimated 750 000 persons within the continental United States have contracted this anomaly. ADDENDA MATERIALS I. SCP-3787 Update On 30 June 2021, Foundation efforts to reduce the heightened equine birth rate were successful. The median horse gestation period levelled out to ~1.5 times the baseline. In the 2 months since detecting the anomaly, more than 450 000 new horses were born in the United States alone. On 12 July, Parazoology Division personnel observed what they hypothesized was an anomalous illness spreading throughout domesticated horse populations. Horses affected by this illness experienced a period of acute stress and entered a comatose state. In 18% of instances, affected horses later expired. An estimated 37% of horses in the Southern and Southwestern United States have been afflicted with this illness. As of 29 August, research efforts into a vaccine have proved ineffective. II. Project: DIRE HORSE The accelerated spread of this illness has caused the death of ~1.1 million horses in the United States. In response, Site-82 — in conjunction with the Scientific Department — has published two reports on Project: DIRE HORSE to the IntSCPFN network. ▷ Project: DIRE HORSE ◁ △ Close △ SUMMARY OF PROJECT: DIRE HORSE Project: DIRE HORSE outlines the production of a significant horse population and the dissemination of this new population across the United States. This is to be conducted to mitigate the ongoing loss of horse populations and produce a phenotype resistant to the effects of the anomalous illness. To achieve this goal, DIRE HORSE has employed the use of Ashleigh's Fields: A cattle farm in Newton News, Montana. Ashleigh's Fields has been working under the Foundation front company Stratford Cattle Productions since 2010. Ashleigh's Fields uses an industrial farming facility responsible for the mass production of synthetic livestock in place of modern farming techniques. Ashleigh's Fields factory farm. (Hover to enlarge.) DIRE HORSE will use the Rimmer–Lister Hippological Simulacrum (or RLHS) prototype. The RLHS can produce 500 artificially grown adult horses (or 1 000 foals) per 6-hr period, within 99.91% genetic similarity of their natural counterparts. Horses produced by the RLHS undergo behavioural engineering and memetic hardening to reduce the potential effects of an SCP-3787-1 spread into its population. In a runaway equine extinction event, the RLHS and its sentinel facility at Ashleigh's Fields can store up to 100 000 stable horses in cryogenic storage for up to a decade. To reduce general awareness of the full spread of the equine illness, DIRE HORSE is to promptly begin replacing horse populations in 35 U.S. states. Any expired horses affected by SCP-3787 are to be collected and transported to Site-41 Mnestic Production Facility-Aleph for decommissioning. ▷ Procedure MNEMOSYNE ◁ △ Close △ THE ANTIMEMETICS DIVISION DECOMMISSIONING REPORT This file is classified under Level-4/3787 clearance. Unauthorized access is forbidden. PROJECT: DIRE HORSE Site-41, Facility-Aleph. (Hover to enlarge.) To prevent environmental contamination, expired SCP-3787-affected horses are undergoing decommissioning, detailed as follows. A network of Foundation web crawlers is to conduct mass media blackouts by purging any verified news reports on SCP-3787. Foundation personnel planted in the U.S. equine industry are to track all areas affected by mass die-offs. Expired horses identified during this process are to be removed from affected areas on an immediate basis and transported to Site-41, Facility-Aleph, for neutralization. A randomized pool of 1 500 expired horses is to be stored for future testing. Neutralization efforts will operate with the end goal of destroying all expired horses affected by SCP-3787. Per Procedure MNEMOSYNE, destroyed subjects are to be broken down into multi-component slurry to begin the transformation into Class-W Mnestics[A] material.. A primary component of modern mnestics is an admixture of various parts of horse anatomy. Marness, L. (1976). Glue Huffing and Dutch Occultism: Why the Best Bad Ideas Are Seldom Forgotten.

Incident Report 41-Aleph-2021-246 On 3 September, hostile anomalous entities attempted to force access into Site-41, Facility-Aleph, during Procedure MNEMOSYNE. A transcript of the encounter is as follows. ▷ Incident Report 41-Aleph-2021-246 ◁ △ Close △ VIDEO LOG NOTE: Because of the high volume of antimemetic anomalies on-site, all cameras at Site-41 are outfitted with a Mariotte-Pashler antimemetic perception filter. For identification purposes, anomalies corresponding with this description are outlined in red. [BEGIN LOG \| 01:04 AM] [A large wheel-shaped anatomical mass (automatically marked in red) appears near Site-41. The anatomical structure disables a surveillance pylon at 55 km/hr. Security alarms whine and the mass charges toward nearby Facility-Aleph.] [Mobile Task Force Chai-10 (“Oxygenated Morons”), a three-member fast-insertion unit operating a light strike vehicle (or LSV) outfitted with an M2 heavy machine gun, approaches the pylon to investigate. The mass notices the task force and mimics freezing behaviour, whinnying as it shudders.] CH-10-Lead GARTER: Easy there, girl. You're a stunner, aren't you? CH-10 CASSIUS: Who are you talking to? CH-10-Lead GARTER: [He groans.] Turn on your filter, dumbass. Things are about to get hairy. CH-10 CASSIUS: [He fumbles with his gear before activating a filter in his helmet.] Holy shit! CH-10 AZALEA: Can our weapons even hit that thing? [She hesitates.] I mean, it's antimemetic, and the ammo's not spell-coated or anything. What if it passes right through? [The mass slowly transforms into a ball and expands.] CH-10-Lead GARTER: Clever hypothesis, AZALEA. [He chuckles.] Well? Find out for us, will you? [AZALEA fires at the mass and punctures its outer layer, which emits loud equine vocalizations. A tan equine entity separates from the larger mass and gallops toward the task force.] CH-10 AZALEA: I'll consider that debunked. [She repositions the M2 and focuses on the entity.] [CASSIUS reverses the vehicle and circles the mass in a broad arc. The entity matches velocities and chases the unit for an extended period, then latches itself onto the back of the LSV. The larger mass remains stationary.] [AZALEA expels 150 rounds at the entity. The entity breaks apart into smaller portions that each continue to animate, implanting themselves into various places on the vehicle to squeeze inside.] [The LSV ceases operation.] CH-10-Lead GARTER: All right, everybody out. Let's hole ourselves up before that thing decides to attack. [MTF-Chai-10 exits the LSV and travels into cover and out of frame. The visible entity squeezes the rest of its body into the vehicle. Equine vocalizations continue.] [Soon after, the larger mass reaches a diameter of about 3 m and moves again, this time rolling toward Facility-Aleph at an immense speed. It collides with the facility, causing structural damage and disabling the video feed. Audio surveillance continues.] [Site systems log the activation of an automated anti-intrusion and disorientation system, illuminating the area with high-powered 1 000-watt floodlights.] [Audio surveillance registers a sharp equine vocalization — loud at first, but eventually receding into silence.] [END LOG \| 01:26 AM] CLOSING REMARKS: The next morning, site security launched an investigation on the premises. Security personnel found the equine entity trapped within the LSV, its form blackened and shrivelled — neutralized by prolonged exposure to intense light. Foundation cryptozoologists have launched an investigation into these newly discovered equine entities. IV. Investigation ARCHIVIST'S NOTE: This conclusion was derived based on the short time span between the conclusion of Project: DIRE HORSE and 3787-N appearances near common horse populations. Foundation personnel specializing in antimemetics training have noted the emergence of large numbers of antimemetic equine entities. These entities, designated 3787-N, appear en masse as a direct result of extended Foundation efforts to control U.S. horse population numbers. A comprehensive description of these entities is as follows. ▷ Description of 3787-N ◁ △ Close △ 3787-N DESCRIPTION 3787-N is a collective of predatory, semi-humanoid equine entities. Each 3787-N instance is composed of malleable cartilage integrated with groupings of musculature typical of horses. One defining feature is its horse-like cranium, which consists of a muzzle capable of equine vocalizations. Naturally occurring braided horsehair is present in the form of a mane and tail. Each strand of hair is autonomous; 3787-N efforts to control hair movement often appear laboured, and seem unsuccessful. Though 3787-N possesses dull, rounded teeth, it has been observed to engage in carnivorous activities and consume humans — albeit rarely. Instead of feeding for sustenance, instances choose to hunt for recreation. All 3787-N appendages are capable of contorting, elongating, and wrapping around themselves. In acts of defence, 3787-N will balloon its body outward. Instances will also mount one another, combining in tandem with the formation of wheel-like anatomical structures to use their collective body mass as a moving vehicle. When this occurs, velocities of up to 150 km/hr have been observed. Sightings of 3787-N occur in nocturnal settings. 3787-N is a pack predator, appearing in groups ranging between five and 50 instances. These groups typically manifest near domestic or thoroughbred horse farms and feral horse packs. 3787-N display a strong revulsion to most forms of visible light and experience physical damage on exposure. The Task Forces Commander at Site-82 advises any personnel in the vicinity of 3787-N instances to carry any form of light-based weaponry available. No other means of damaging 3787-N have been observed at present. Containment analysts at Site-82 have come to infer a complex relationship among the appearances of 3787-N and previous equine anomalies. Analysts conclude that the emergence of increased equine aggression and accelerated birth rates was, in part, a widespread anomalous defence mechanism tailored toward the repulsion of 3787-N. Current reports show that this behaviour has almost reversed, in part because of the emergence and influence of 3787-N — which horses now act subservient toward. Since the appearance of 3787-N, horses in the United States have deviated from their typical behaviour.. Horses produced by Project: DIRE HORSE have, however, maintained their designed behaviour. Almost all observed horse populations display SCP-3787-1 and attack humans, causing civilian casualties beyond Foundation control. In areas with a significant volume of horses displaying SCP-3787-1, domesticated and feral horses alike have begun a mass transit to an as-yet unconfirmed area in the American Southwest, led by groups of 3787-N. How the two groups communicate is now under active investigation. 3787-N have directed efforts toward constructing a large equine-centric locale composed of both horses and 3787-N populations. Contact by any non-equine populations has led to confrontational behaviour on the part of 3787-N. Foundation personnel managing the effects of SCP-3787 also face aggression. In some instances, personnel have undergone bodily transfiguration into horses via inexplicable means. V. Further Actions Taken Mobile Task Force Pi-5 (“Glue Factory”) has formed to repel the attacks of 3787-N. Each member of Pi-5 is trained to deal with antimemetic anomalies and is assigned a strict Class-W Mnestic prescription. A summary of Pi-5, Alpha Platoon, is as follows. Forty combat operatives with light-based weaponry such as the 1 000-watt N-62A Laser Optics Pistol, the 2 000-watt G1A Tactical Solid-state Laser Rifle, and the prototype 30 000-watt Basov-Prokhorov RX-7Z Hard-Light Heavy Rifle (“Nulltaker”). 4 000-lumen flashlights and interfaces with night vision and blue-light eye protection lenses. Fifteen Polaris MV800 All-Terrain Vehicles outfitted with Light Reconnaissance Laser Optic gun platforms. Ten Chenowth Utility Terrain Vehicles. Four SL/SX Support Drones fitted with Mariotte-Pashler antimemetic perception filters. Despite the formation of Pi-5, the full containment of 3787-N and any related anomalies is not yet possible because of their widespread nature. The Foundation is now directing efforts toward reducing the fear of horses. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3787" by Lt Flops, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3788	safe	SCP-3788 Item #: SCP-3788 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3788 is kept in a standard Safe locker and fitted with a trigger lock. Entities emerging from SCP-3788 are to be stored in liquid ammonia tanks upon manifestation for preservation. Following Incident 3788-G, testing with SCP-3788 is suspended. Description: SCP-3788 is a plastic water gun containing a spatial anomaly. The screw cap for its tank is sealed shut, and attempts to thread cameras through SCP-3788's nozzle result in the camera viewing the inside of SCP-3788's empty tank. When SCP-3788 is pumped and fired, a high pressure jet of liquid ammonia is emitted from the nozzle as long as the trigger is held down. This liquid also contains dissolved methanol, formaldehyde, acetic acid, and various salts, as well as unidentified unicellular organisms based on organometallic polymers and enamine chains. These organisms are radically distinct from all known Earth-native life. Continued use of SCP-3788 to provide fresh microbial samples for research occasionally results in the ejection of unidentified fish-like organisms1; these creatures uniformly possess six ocular organs, three limbs, and a biochemistry similar to the microbes. Incident 3788-G: After four months of testing, SCP-3788 ejected a large (35 m long) metallic vehicle, resembling a submarine. Upon opening the vehicle's hatch, eight sapient, tripedal, sunfish-like organisms emerged, and quickly lost consciousness due to the atmospheric shock. The organisms were preserved in liquid ammonia tanks until they recovered, and the vehicle inspected. Pictographs within the vehicle, as well as limited translation of the organisms' language, suggests they originate from Saturn's moon Titan. Footnotes 1. Nonliquids ejected from SCP-3788 manifest instantaneously just outside the nozzle with the same velocity as the liquid.
SCP-3789	euclid	The Atacama Trench, represented by the dark blue line. Item #: SCP-3789 Special Containment Procedures: Due to SCP-3789's remote location, direct containment has been deemed unnecessary. Any planned expeditions to the bottom of the Atacama Trench by civilian organizations are to be discouraged. Description: SCP-3789 is a previously undiscovered, non-biological species found in the Atacama Trench, composed of basalt granules held together by thin tendrils of unknown composition. SCP-3789 instances have a shape similar to that of the lion's mane jellyfish (Cyanea capillata), and vary in length from 14m to over 55m. Attempts to capture live specimens of SCP-3789 have so far failed. Even when pressurized containers are used, SCP-3789 instances always lose cohesion during ascent and decompose into dust once the depth reaches above 7.5-8 km below sea level. SCP-3789's tendrils and bell are luminescent, and glow blue. SCP-3789 instances appear to communicate with each other via contact between their tentacles, which causes visible sparks to appear. SCP-3789 possesses several visible mouths near the ends of each arm, all lined with concentric rows of small, rounded stones analogous to teeth. SCP-3789 appears to feed sporadically by extending its arms at least 10m deep into the sediment floor. Additionally, some SCP-3789 instances possess large ovoid structures on the tips of several of their arms. The purpose of these is unknown. Addendum 3789-01: During the most recent sighting, a group of SCP-3789 instances began moving erratically and scattering. The structures on the tips of their arms began to glow brightly, and the seafloor shook. A large fissure opened in the seafloor, and a massive creature approximately 35m long emerged. This creature was chelonian in shape, composed of magma and rock, and its shell was punctured in several places. This creature swam towards the group of SCP-3789, and a 10m long tooth, later determined to be composed of an iron-nickel mixture, fell out of one of the entity's puncture wounds. Several SCP-3789 instances attempted to strike this entity with their arm structures, causing several explosions. Electrical discharges and shockwaves from these attacks damaged most recording equipment, but the two remaining cameras managed to record the chelonian entity taking hold of two SCP-3789 instances in its mouth. Both instances ceased all motion and the chelonian entity dragged them into the fissure with it. The fissure sealed shortly afterward. Analysis found traces of several chemical explosives in the water near the incident. Efforts to track and identify the chelonian entity, tentatively designated SCP-3789-1, using seismic wave analysis are underway. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3789" by Weryllium, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3790	safe	Department of Abnormalities SCP-3790 - Department of Abnormalities Co-authored by Croquembouche and djkaktus ▸ More by this Author ◂ {$comments2} F.A.Q. {$doesthisfixthebug} Item#: 3790 Level5 Secondary Class: none Disruption Class: dark Risk Class: notice link to memo Interior of SCP-3790. Special Containment Procedures: The door into the stairwell leading to SCP-3790 is to be padlocked at all times, and a single guard is to be posted nearby to ensure no individuals enter SCP-3790. By order of the Overseer Council, entry into SCP-3790 is forbidden. Description: SCP-3790 is a structure located beneath the abandoned Port Superior Canning Company warehouse in London, United Kingdom. The only access to this space is down a narrow stairwell that ends in a short black door. The door is free of identifying markings save for a small metal placard just above the door handle that reads "SCP Foundation Department of Abnormalities". _ The remainder of this file has been locked by O5 order.Lock Overridden The interior of SCP-3790 consists of several descending levels, each consisting of a hallway containing four doors, two per side, and a grated freight elevator at the far end of the corridor leading to the lower levels. While there is evidence of prior human activity within SCP-3790, the structure appears to have been abandoned for a considerable amount of time. Each of the doors is a solid, heavy metal door with a sliding panel covering a small glass viewport into the dimly lit chamber beyond. The doors, some of which are rusted but otherwise undamaged, have at some point in the past had their handles and unlocking mechanisms removed, and have been welded shut. The only distinguishing marks on these doors are small metal placards located just beneath the sliding panel. These placards usually bear what is believed to be the designation for the contents of the chamber, though in some cases the placards have been removed or are damaged. A clipboard holding a legal pad hangs on the back of the main access door. Several pages appear to have been torn away from the pad. The frontmost intact piece of paper contains a list of names and a short note. The remainder of the pages are irrelevant. _ + Show Clipboard Text- Hide Clipboard Text Think it's about time. Need to lock down the other sites before I go. Take care. I - Locked II - Locked III - Locked IV - Locked V - Locked VI - Locked VII - Unlocked VIII - Unlocked IX - Locked X - Unlocked The elevator has access to seven levels of the structure. No record of the SCP Foundation ever having a Department of Abnormalities exists. No information regarding the structure has been documented. Addendum 3790.1: Chamber Contents The following is a list of the rooms on each floor, the text on each door's placard, and a visual description of the contents of each chamber, if possible. Level One Room One Placard Name: Vivaldi Description: Chamber is empty aside from a violin propped in the far corner of the room. The bow is broken on the ground in front of it. Room Two Placard Name: Montezuma's Face Description: An ornate wooden chest with gold inlays and a large steel lock sits on a table in the middle of the chamber. A quiet clicking sound, like that of a clock, is barely audible from within the chamber. Room Three Placard Name: No placard Description: Chamber is empty. Room Four Placard Name: Placard has been damaged and text is unreadable Description: Chamber is empty. Long gashes cover the walls. Pieces of bone are visible across the chamber floor. Level Two Room One Placard Name: Ian Description: A thin, pale man in a straitjacket wearing a blindfold sits in the corner of the chamber. Room Two Placard Name: The Crying Boy Description: A canvas is set up in the room. A sheet is draped over it. Room Three Placard Name: The Watchers Description: Three vaguely humanoid figures are huddled in a far corner of the room, looking away from the door. The figures can be seen shifting slightly, but due to lighting conditions within the chamber, no other details can be made out. Room Four Placard Name: No placard Description: Beyond the door appears to be another dark hallway. Level Three Room One Placard Name: The Infinite Cold Description: The floor of the chamber is covered with a thin layer of water. The interior of the room seems to be considerably larger than its exterior physical dimensions would allow. Room Two Placard Name: Sorrow Description: A pedestal rests in the middle of the chamber. Four parallel lines in the dust, consistent with finger marks, imply that whatever was upon it has recently been removed. Room Three Placard Name: World Without Man Description: Chamber is empty. Room Four Placard Name: Adam's Hatred Description: A billowing, indistinct black shape is visible in the back of the room. Level Four Room One Placard Name: The Morning Star Description: A rusted sword hangs on a rack in the back of the room. The door to the chamber feels warm.

SCP-3791	safe	Item #: SCP-3791 Special Containment Procedures: The access code to SCP-3791 is to be split into three equal sections and stored in safes 13, 77, and 95 at Site-01. Knowledge of the full code is to be limited to personnel directly authorized by an O5 Council member. No current or former members of MTF Alpha-1 ("Red Right Hand") are to be permitted entry into SCP-3791. Frequency of amnestic treatments is to be considered a critical risk factor when assessing individuals for access to SCP-3791. No personnel are to be allowed access on any third day of the month of November. Any information acquired within SCP-3791 is to be processed at CSUM-4.1 No textual or visual records are to be created within SCP-3791 without direct permission of an O5 Council member. All records are to be destroyed following standard processing procedures. All personnel are to be treated with Class-A amnestics following exposure to SCP-3791. The draft letter within SCP-3791 is to remain under a 10 cm thick plate of steel. This plate is to be further secured to the desk by heavy chains and padlocks. The keys to this apparatus are to be stored in safe 46 at Site-01. Description: SCP-3791 is room 1699 of Decommissioned Facility-US61, a component structure of a former Site-01 iteration. It measures 4.5 m x 5.5 m, is linked to the outside hallway via a steel door, and has a single window to the exterior of the facility. The door is locked with an electronic keypad significantly more advanced than was mandated by security protocols at the time of the facility's construction. The office does not appear on any archived blueprints and the identity of all former occupants remains unknown. Objects originating within SCP-3791 have proven unresponsive to all tested methods of interaction. SCP-3791 exhibits a temporal anomaly anchored specifically to November 3, 1972 at 4:32 PM (hereafter referred to as the anchor point.) Electronic devices brought into SCP-3791 display the anchor point as the current time and date, as well as the time and date of all contained files' creation and most recent edits. Mechanical clocks are similarly affected. Physical calendars brought into SCP-3791 are altered such that all contained dates and times match the anchor point. While inside the office, individuals tend to believe that the current time and date match the anchor point but do not resist reminders to the contrary. Individuals within SCP-3791 experience perfect recollection of memories formed between approximately 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM on any given November 3. This effect bypasses most low-grade pharmaceutical and hypnotic amnestic treatments. Memories recalled in this fashion persist indefinitely after exiting SCP-3791. Access to SCP-3791 has been restricted given the significant security, containment, and mental health risks posed by this effect. A possible world state at the anchor point exists inside SCP-3791, and extends to all observable points outside the office when viewed from within. Through the doorway, the shadow of an individual can be seen cast against the opposite wall. The intensity of the shadow suggests that the facility's emergency lights have been activated. A single cell thunderstorm can be observed in progress through the window, typified by light rainfall and incomplete cloud cover. Four covered trucks and 35 armed personnel are visible in the plaza below, all bearing markings of Foundation Internal Security (later re-organized as MTF Alpha-1). No record exists of an FIS deployment matching this time and location. Addendum 3791-A (Contents of SCP-3791): One desk, three chairs, two cabinets, one lamp. All furniture is from the limited run of designer Christian Danbrook's Executive Style, Executive Feel collection. Two fountain pens and matching inkwell. Make and model unknown. Three red folders. The first is labeled "Yearly Procedure Reviews: 400-500." The second is labeled "PEARBLOSSOM-11 Project Proposal." The third is labeled "Emergency Protocol LATERAL NADIR." One draft letter. Classified as a level-5 cognitohazard. One broken snowglobe. The plaque describes it as 'The Howling Pillar'2 (LOI-913). One Foundation-issued coffee mug. One Foundation-issued bottle of Glenmore Kentucky Bourbon (empty). Addendum 3791-B (Research Proposals): Proposal: Test the mnestic properties of SCP-3791 on individuals treated with Class-A amnestics to more accurately assess effect potency and the extent of security risks. Status: Approved by Project Lead A. Carias. Denied by order of the O5 Council. Proposal: Employ TRSSI-suite from within SCP-3791 to more accurately understand the context of the anchor point. Employ facial recognition software to identify individuals visible from SCP-3791 for the purpose of establishing event veracity. Status: Approved by Project Lead A. Carias. Denied by order of the O5 Council. Proposal: Analyze trace skin and hair samples within SCP-3791 to facilitate the identification of former occupants. Status: Approved by Project Lead A. Carias. Denied by order of the O5 Council. All future research proposals are to undergo an OEPD-compliant cost-benefit analysis and receive direct approval from the Decommissioned Facilities Director prior to official consideration. Proposals must be further supported by at least four Senior Researchers of related departments. Proposals Pending: 0 Addendum 3791-C (Text of Draft Letter): PROJECT [ERROR: PROJECT NOT FOUND] ACCESS REQUIRED. O5 OVERRIDE ACCEPTED. From the desk of [DATA EXPUNGED] Office of Oversight and Administration, Site-01 November 3, 1972 To my treasured All Foundation personn To whom it may concern, A great travesty has been carried out this day. I, and you, have been betrayed by There are few things I have ever regretted. The thought of the greater good quells many I fear we have lost something important in our quest for the greater good. We became inclined to leap to action, accepting inevitable mistakes as necessary losses. We became foolish hungry for blind self-assured that our plans, made with the best intentions, would have the best results. Being only mortal human, my appetite for progress was just as endless overwhelming real as any of yours. Even so, there are crimes betrayals actions that cannot be excused by hunger alone. My own appetites may have been strange unorthodox, but I never acted with any intent but the furthering of our mission. I secured. I contained. I protected. Clearly, the same cannot be said for Smith, Mihn, Ahmadi, Ni Be on guard for any who behave otherwise, no matter what words they justify themselves with. My own vigilance was insufficient, and for that I can do nothing but apologize. I have allowed too many to blind themselves, and so I should not be surprised when they see me as a monster find themselves unable to see me for what I am instead of the abomination they imagine me as I hope you will not let this crime go unpunished, and that these conspi I can only hope the Foundation will persist through Despite this, I hope I will be remembe Footnotes 1.

SCP-3792	safe	Instance of SCP-3792-1 under illumination mid-formation. Item #: SCP-3792 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3792 is enclosed within a hermetically sealed cylinder composed of acrylic plastics. This container is held in a locker located in Site-77's Safe SCP object wing. Any research on SCP-3792 is subject to approval by the lead researcher, Dr. Gerard. It is not believed that SCP-3792 has any damage-resistant properties; as such, care is to be taken when handling it directly. Description: SCP-3792 is an aerosol can capable of producing an unlimited quantity of black smoke. The exterior label reads "Smells Like Chicago Spirit"; other than this, there are no identifying marks on any portion of the canister. When used, smoke produced by SCP-3792 will form into autonomous figures. Designated SCP-3792-1, they resemble humanoid silhouettes. Their appearance lacks detail, with only basic facial features and extremities being clearly visible. Despite this, smoke in the shape of clothing and various tools may also manifest in the possession of SCP-3792-1. These have included ski masks, crowbars, glass cutters, and occasionally small unidentifiable objects for purposes such as lock-picking. Smoke from SCP-3792 generates a number of SCP-3792-1 correlating to the amount released. SCP-3792-1 collectively attempts to obtain an object desired by the last living human subject any of them individually came into physical contact with. This may reflect unconscious notions, or expressly coveted items. Directly coming into contact with an instance of SCP-3792-1 causes human subjects to report feeling as though their stomach is empty. A subsequent lack of energy or motivation has also been reported in these subjects, although it is unknown whether this correlates directly to SCP-3792's effect or a secondary non-anomalous effect caused by SCP-3792-1's effect on their lives. Following contact, all existing SCP-3792-1 will then attempt to enter the location in which the affected subject believes the object(s) of their desire is located. SCP-3792-1 can materialize as clouds of smoke which may infiltrate a building by clinging to clothing or inhabiting the inside of suitcases or other containers. In addition, SCP-3792-1 entities may enter using traditional burgling means. When unable to find any object of desire, SCP-3792-1 will intentionally initiate contact with another subject. Any of the desired object(s) coming into contact with SCP-3792-1 will be momentarily engulfed in flames. This does not destroy the object or reduce it to ash. Instead, once the flames recede affected object(s) will display a smoke-like composition similar the SCP-3792-1's appearance. SCP-3792-1 will then return to the vicinity of SCP-3792 with the affected item(s) in their possession. They will then slowly and incrementally have a small portion of their body return to SCP-3792's interior until they and any objects with their properties have demanifested entirely. If attempting to come into contact with an object which has taken on the composition of SCP-3792-1, subjects will experience immediate spontaneous combustion. If this occurs, all SCP-3792 related activity currently active will cease and all extant entities and objects will dissipate into smoke and vanish from observable space. SCP-3792 was discovered after Foundation agents in London, ON, CA, intercepted reports of spontaneous human combustion and determined relation to a suspicious newspaper advertisement. These read "SMOKEY AND THEY CANNED IT" with a listed address. Agents investigating the address discovered approximately 200 instances of SCP-3792 as well as several instances of SCP-1317. No further public advertisements have been discovered.

While magnetic media naturally deteriorates over a period of decades, SCP-3793 has shown no observable time-induced decay of its base materials, nor a reduced level of audio integrity and quality due to age or repeated playbacks. Nevertheless, care is advised when handling SCP-3793 due to its current state, and local temperature and humidity conditions should still be observed to prevent possible material degradation. Should SCP-3793's anomalous properties be activated by a CPLAY event, Site 62's Emergency Task Force should be deployed in two units: "Fixers", designated to quickly address sources of structural damage (fires, damaged electrical wiring, damaged piping/plumbing and subsequent floods, etc), protect and recover on-site documentation, and prevent potential containment breaches. "Toreros", designated to lure SCP-3793-2-to-5 (and consequently SCP-3793-1) into locations where the amount of damage incurred by a CPLAY event can be kept to a minimum. Personnel are advised to wear eye protection (preferably gas masks), flame-retardant clothing and moderate protective padding during a CPLAY event. Standard evacuation procedures apply if the site is flooded or incinerated. When active, SCP-3793-1 has been obversed to roam anywhere within a radius of ~15km of distance outward from SCP-3793's current position. As such, Toreros are encouraged to move SCP-3793 away from its origin point in order to force SCP-3793-1-to-5 outside of a pre-delineated risk perimeter. Description: SCP-3793 is a slightly damaged cassette tape, dating from circa 1983, containing 32 minutes of audio from an unknown early 1980s musical group called "Men of Squalor". SCP-3793's anomalous effects are manifested when its audio is reproduced by any cassette player that is allowed to perform its tracks for a time span of 2:07 minutes. Digital copies generated by the Foundation have failed to exhibit any anomalous properties, as well as any instrumental renditions of SCP-3793's contents. Mechanically faulty cassette players (leading to stuttering and skipping of audio sections) also prevent SCP-3793's anomalous effects from taking place. When SCP-3793's audio is reproduced for the amount of necessary time, a CPLAY event takes place. During an active CPLAY event, the following phenomena occurs: Audio playback of SCP-3793's contents continues up to its conclusion, at the 32 minutes mark. Attempting to pause, stop, rewind or accelerate SCP-3793 results in no audible change, despite the cassette tape being fully manipulable in a physical fashion. Removing SCP-3793 from its current cassette player or re-inserting it into a different player also produces no observable change. The audio source is unknown, as observed decibel levels remain constant throughout SCP-3793's effective radius. After approximately ~8 seconds of a CPLAY event starting, SCP-3793-1-to-5 will manifest within close vicinity of SCP-3793. SCP-3793-1-to-5 will demanifest at the end of a CPLAY event. SCP-3793-1 is the designation given to what appears to be an extensively damaged 1978 Ford Fairmont four-door sedan. Several parts of SCP-3793-1 seem to be missing or ruptured, as its hood, doors and several parts of its engine configuration are absent or broken. SCP-3793-1 constantly generates a thick billow of smoke from inside its engine, heavily obscuring SCP-3793-1 and the area immediately beside it. SCP-3793-2-to-5 refers to SCP-3793-1's occupants. SCP-3793-2-to-5 are four humanoid figures, each exhibiting varying degrees of injuries ranging from minor lacerations, to extensive eschar crusts and exposed bone tissue. Details about SCP-3793-2-to-5 have been difficult to assert, as SCP-3793-1's nature largely prevents observation, and most attempts at communication (sans perceived provocations) have been unsuccessful. Once active, each of the entities within SCP-3793-1 will engage in destructive vandalism of their immediate surroundings. SCP-3793-1 has been observed to be capable of accelerating to speeds upwards of 260KM/h, and performing maneuvers inconsistent with its expected mechanical capabilities. SCP-3793-1-to-5 seem largely unaffected by the presence of physical matter in their trajected path and are presumably incorporeal, as physical matter remains unaltered upon contact with SCP-3793-1-to-5. However, objects "produced" by SCP-3793-2-to-5 have the same physical properties of any normal iterations of those, and should be handled as such. Throughout CPLAY events, SCP-3793-2-to-5 have been shown capable of producing a wide variety of extemporaneous projectiles, and have barraged Foundation personnel with objects such as: Large arrays of glass bottles. Various types of debris, such as splintered wood, concrete batches and severed pipes. Car parts, presumably from SCP-3793-1 itself. Comestibles, such as nougats and beef jerky. Assorted electronics, such as PMP cassette players, digital watches and still cameras. Notably, SCP-3793-2-to-5 have not produced any electronics that were not commercialized before 1983. Faeces corresponding to multiple species, such as Mephitis mephitis and Phoca vitulina.1 Chemical compounds stored in assorted containers, mostly being petrochemicals.2 Memorabilia such as snow globes and matryoshka dolls. In rare circumstances, SCP-3793-2-to-5 have also been observed manipulating on-site items and employing them alongside generated objects. For the duration of a CPLAY event, SCP-3793-1-to-5 will seek to inflict escalating damage to their current environment. Due to the fact that SCP-3793-1-to-5 are seemingly incorporeal and capable of materializing a wide range of objects, it is not uncommon for SCP-3793-1-to-5 to sever and damage infrastructure and sensitive systems from within, usually by targeting (or accidentally physically displacing) cables and piping installed inside walls or at an underground level. SCP-3793-2-to-5 seemingly haven't proactively pursued life-threatening injuries to bystanders, but are thought to be sapient and respond to any perceived provocations, usually by focusing barrages on temporary targets before continuing with generalized damage. While efforts to halt or stall SCP-3793-1-to-5 have proven ineffective, drawing attention to individuals acting as lures has helped in efforts to mitigate environmental damage. Discovery: SCP-3793 was recovered by the Foundation in 1985 at the outskirts of the Fort Saint Vrain Generation Station in Platteville, Colorado. Following reports by the station's staff of unusual activity from men claiming to be security inspectors, the local police force was contacted and begun a brief investigation. Shortly after, law enforcement located and confronted a small group of people setting up an observation camp at the outskirts of the facility. Several suspects were arrested, and amongst the items recovered, SCP-3793 was found3 alongside a number of maps, floorplans and blueprints of several facilities and buildings throughout North America. Investigations on the motivations and background of this group remain inconclusive. Footnotes 1. Striped Skunk and Harbor Seal, respectively. 2. Currently, the largest observed object produced by SCP-3793-2-to-5 has been a 30lbs (13.6kg) Liquid Propane gas cylinder. 3. Chemical analysis of SCP-3793 at the time of its recovery revealed small traces of gasoline, steel and aluminum.
SCP-3794	safe	SCP-3794 Item #: SCP-3794 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3794 is kept within a standard item locker. Testing is currently suspended. Description: SCP-3794 is a sledgehammer that converts living tissue to pico de gallo salsa when swung with sufficient force. This salsa is not significantly different from ordinary salsas in composition, nutritional value, or taste. Tissue is converted instantly within a ~3-8 cm radius from the area directly struck by SCP-3794. Converted salsa does not adhere to the subject and slides out of the resulting depression or hole in the subject's body. Blood vessels and other structures terminate abruptly at the edge of conversion, as if cauterized. If salsa conversion causes a portion of the body to become detached, this portion will retain life functions as long as the subject does. Addendum: SCP-3794 was used on test subject's skull, resulting in conversion of entire brain and majority of skull to salsa. Despite this, the subject continued to move frantically before crudely writing "HELP" using the spilled salsa. Consumption of the salsa resulted in the death of the subject within 30 minutes. Testing halted. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3794" by Weryllium, from the SCP Wiki. Source: https://scpwiki.com/scp-3794. Licensed under CC-BY-SA.

SCP-3795	safe	Item #: SCP-3795 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3795 is kept in a standard high-value containment locker in Site 68. Testing of SCP-3795 is to be only carried out on D-Class with no prior history of animal abuse, and under no circumstances are any researchers who currently own pets to come into contact with SCP-3795. Description: SCP-3795 is a hardcover copy of the book The Genius of Dogs: How Dogs are Smarter Than You Think by Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods (Plume, 2013). In both its inert and active state, SCP-3795 is physically identical to a non-anomalous copy of the book, except that the phrase "WHO KILLED YOUR DOG?!" has been written on the copyright page in black marker. SCP-3795's anomalous properties manifest when an individual who currently owns a domestic dog (Canis familiaris) reads the phrase on the copyright page of the book. After comprehending it in its entirety, the subject will immediately lose consciousness and cannot be awoken by any means for approximately six hours. During this time, the subject's dog1 will invariably be killed by a close friend or relative of the subject who, after leaving the area in which the pet was murdered, will have no recollection of its death. SCP-3795 is able to anomalously influence the actions of the person it selects so that the dog is killed before the six hours have passed, and Foundation researchers have yet to discover a way to preemptively prevent the death of a targeted pet. After re-entering a conscious state, the subject will immediately gain knowledge of their dog's death, usually causing them great distress. The following note will then appear on their person (hereafter SCP-3795-A): YOUR DOG IS DEAD! Can YOU figure out who did it? You have 24 hours SHOW THEM THAT YOU CARE! SCP-3795-A then lists three different "clues" based on the dog selected and the nature of the murderer (e.g. when a dog was shot by a subject's mother, SCP-3795-A listed "How could she do this to you?" as a clue). If the subject successfully identifies their dog's killer within twenty-four hours and vocalizes their name using the phrase "It was [killer]!", the dog will be brought back to life unharmed; if they fail to, it remains deceased and cannot be revived after an event has concluded. After completion of an SCP-3795 event, one of the following notes appears within the vicinity of the subject: SCP-3795-B (Success) WELL DONE! You get your dog back. ENJOY! And remember… MAN'S BEST FRIEND. :) SCP-3795-C (Failure) Time is UP. Sorry, you missed your chance. Your dog is gone now. Remember… MAN'S BEST FRIEND. :( Addendum 3795.A: During trial 3795/023, SCP-3795 was tested on D-76539, a felon with a history of animal abuse directed towards dogs and cats, including a conviction related to a dogfighting charge. For the purposes of the experiment, D-76539 was temporarily given a Labrador Retriever puppy. Upon SCP-3795's activation, D-76539 appeared to momentarily experience intense pain before expiring shortly afterwards. Post-mortem analysis identified blood loss from severe laceration as the primary cause of death. Containment procedures were subsequently updated to prevent testing on subjects with abusive tendencies towards animals. Footnotes 1.

SCP-3796	safe	Item #: SCP-3796 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3796 is to be kept in a Safe-class object locker in Site-73. No personnel are allowed to touch or otherwise play SCP-3796. Description: SCP-3796 is a 7-inch 45 single by American soul group The Bees (consisting of Ossie Floriston, Sam Brooks, Jamal Jones, and Richard Denton), and released by St. Louis based label Troubadour Records. No record of this group or this label has ever existed, however all personnel involved (studio musicians, songwriters, back-up musicians, producers, label executives, and The Bees themselves) have proven to be real individuals, who remember their time creating SCP-3796. The A-side of SCP-3796 contains a song called "The Time I Spent With All of You", written by Isaac McClintock and Ben Green. The B-side contains a song called "Tomorrows", written by McClintock, Green and an individual named Beckett Beebe, who has not been identified. Both songs are non-anomalous, consisting of standard, slow soul ballads popular at the time it was released (1966). The songs can be copied and listened to successfully without contributing to SCP-3796-1. The physical record aspect of SCP-3796 is home to a highly aggressive Class VII noncorporeal, ideatic, noosphere-based sapient personality matrix1. It is designated SCP-3796-1. According to analysis via Tolstoy Loss Rate algorithms derived from SCP-3045, observing and quantifying the memetic output of SCP-3796-1 indicates that unlike similar personality matrices found in non-anomalous objects, SCP-3796-1 is extremely complex, consisting of over 300 personality fragments corresponding to real world individuals. Testing with SCP-3796 shows that SCP-3796-1 grows via simple touch or listening.2 The sheer number of fragments comprising SCP-3796-1 and the level of noogenesis present within SCP-3796 indicates that it is the largest personality matrix ever recorded, and probably the most psychically active as well. The behavior of SCP-3796 is somewhat apian in nature, although this is not always the case. Analysis of SCP-3796-1, via introduction of D-Class personnel, indicates that most fragments within SCP-3796-1 correspond to type consistent with the audience for the record. The oldest fragments seem to be African-American teenagers from the 1960s. Gradually the newest and newest fragments correspond to Radio DJs, listeners within the broadcast radius, record shop owners, distributors, soul fans outside the original demographic, antique shop owners, and so forth. The head researchers for SCP-3796 theorize that the effect is spread to all extant copies of the record, as so to account for the large number of fragments for one object. This would be cause to track down and recall these copies, however the only additions to the matrix have originated with SCP-3796, and no other copies of the single have been identified or recovered, despite public memories indicating otherwise. There are several fragments within SCP-3796-1 that do not match up with the usual patterns of contribution, all of which exist towards the very bottom of the matrix. They include two white supremacists formerly belonging to the Ku Klux Klan, a group of five Kyrgyzstani alchemists, and a single common Western honey bee (Apis mellifera). Except for the alchemists, none of the other fragments could be conclusively identified, and all evidence points to them not existing. It is unknown what personalities exist at the exact bottom of the matrix. Although it is theorized to be personnel related to the production of SCP-3796, this cannot be measured or proven due to the large ideatic weight of SCP-3796-1 preventing accurate analysis. Although at points the mass of fragments swarm in a typically apian fashion towards a central gestalt consciousness, the apparent constant and large pain that the fragments express prevents this from happening in total. In as such, SCP-3796-1 is constantly in flux, and will occasionally lash out to nearby attack mental bystanders and attempt to convert a segment of their noospheroid based level consciousness into itself, thereby subjecting a fragment of the bystander's overall consciousness to the same pain that they express. The person is typically left unharmed save for some discomfort during this process, and a general inability to remember the past two hours. This can be abated with a small mnestic regimen. Addendum: (D-345688 was introduced to SCP-3796's containment safe and ordered to interact with it in order to ascertain the nature of the SCP-3796-1 fragments state. A record player was provided. The safe and record player were moved to a testing chamber.) D-345688: Alright, so I've opened the safe. Is this the record I'm supposed to play? Dr. Tudorsmith: That is correct. Please proceed. D-345688: Fair enough, I've seen worse. (D-345688 picks up SCP-3796 and begins to mentally interact with SCP-3796. He halts for a second following the removal.) Dr. Tudorsmith: Are you okay? D-345688: No. I'm fine. I just got a headache. Like a rush to my brain like I just stood up too fast. I'm fine. (D-345688 moves haltingly to put SCP-3796 on to the record player. After putting the needle down, he moves back hesitantly. "The Time I Spent With All of You" begins to play.) D-345688: Not bad actually. I actually was expecting worse. Not a fan of soul music, actually. (D-345688 seizes up, then begins to vocalize quickly and seemingly at random, switching voices and accents.) D-345688: No. I'm fine. I just got a headache. No. I'm fine. No. No. No. We're reaching an Omega Point. Momma, but I love this kind of music! No, no wait it's entering this reality. I just got a headache. And that was "Tomorrows" by The Bees. Great band, lotta good stuff. Very cheap. Alright The Bees, good band. I'll give you a good price on this. No. Elijah, listen to this! We're coming together, and pulling apart. Y'all didn't erase it entirely it seems! Serve the queen. Fight the other hive. Fight the other hive before it destroys us. It hurts, so much. I can't breathe. No. I need y'all to do something to this here [SLUR REDACTED] album. Can y'all manage? No. No. Everything in my body is on fire! We are the gestalt. We'll meet in the Klavern. We are the Omega Point. The singularity. This will destroy the record label totally. God, those lyrics. A-one, A-two, A-one, two, three, four. Hit that guitar Reggie! (D-345688 begins to scream.) (D-345688 slumps to the ground briefly before opening his eyes.) D-345688: Where am I? Dr. Tudorsmith? Footnotes 1. An angry, thought-based psychic spirit composed of multiple consciousness. A personality matrix consists of the psychic fragments of an object’s owner, and functions somewhat similarly to the concept of kami in Shintoism. 2. In a non-anomalous record, the personality matrix, or psychic attachment, would be inert and nonsapient, added to only by the individual self-designated as the owner. In the case of SCP-3796-1, broadcasting the songs within SCP-3796 across the radio would be enough to grow SCP-3796. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3796" by LordStonefish, from the SCP Wiki.

It is not one of the mild gods of Earth, or some weaker spirit that is bound by the strength of man’s belief. by stormbreath Item #: SCP-3797 Special Containment Procedures: As SCP-3797 does not yet exist, it does not require containment. The Temporal Anomalies Department is to build SCP-3797. They are permitted to use other SCP objects and temporal anomalies in this process, with O5 approval. Once SCP-3797 has been constructed, it is to be used once, in order to terminate SCP-3797-ARC on 0742 UTC 06/13/2015. It is then to be dismantled. Description: SCP-3797 will be a retrocausal weapon capable of terminating a target at a date in the relative past of activation. SCP-3797 will be used at least one time, at an indeterminate date in the future, to terminate SCP-3797-ARC at 0742 UTC 06/13/2015. It is currently unknown how SCP-3797 will function. SCP-3797-ARC was an apex-tier pluripotent entity. SCP-3797-ARC possessed near-omniscience, but did not possess precognitive abilities. For more information gathered from SCP-3797-ARC's dormant state, see SCP-3797-ARC's main file. At 0739 UTC 06/13/2015, SCP-3797-ARC awakened, as predicted, and began to initiate a CK-Class Restructuring Scenario. Termination was authorized in order to prevent such an event. MTF Omega-9 ("The Scrubs") and MTF Omega-12 ("Achilles Heels") attempted to terminate SCP-3797-ARC, but all such efforts were prevented by SCP-3797-ARC's reality-altering capabilities. The insignia of the Temporal Anomalies Department. At 0742 UTC 06/13/2015, several hundred instances of the Temporal Anomalies Department insignia appeared upon SCP-3797-ARC. Five seconds later, all of SCP-3797-ARC's flesh disintegrated. 72 further instances of the Temporal Anomalies Department insignia were discovered on the ground surrounding the previous location of SCP-3797-ARC. At this time, sensors employed by the Temporal Anomalies Department detected a high-energy temporal displacement originating from the future. The current prediction of future events is that the Temporal Anomalies Department will have been able to neutralize SCP-3797-ARC by placing the cause of its death after its death, preventing it from knowing of its termination and using its anomalous capabilities to prevent such an event. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3797" by stormbreath, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3798	safe	Item#: 3798 Level2 Secondary Class: none Disruption Class: dark Risk Class: notice link to memo Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3798 is to be kept in a standard containment cell and left on at all times. A single camera is to be placed 1.5 meters in front of SCP-3798’s screen to monitor for any changes in the contents of SCP-3798. A microwave receiver is to be placed adjacent to SCP-3798; all signals received are to be digitally stored and copied, with copies of short-timeframe signals translated into the ISO basic Latin alphabet from standard Morse code. Description: SCP-3798 is a 1990s-era TV set with a VHS player containing a single tape of 1998’s Baby Mozart: Music Festival children’s educational film. SCP-3798 does not play any other films inserted in its player, and furthermore does not play the original contents of the tape; the tape has been proven to play normally in control tests. SCP-3798’s anomalous effects do not occur if a different version of the same tape is inserted; like other tapes, it will simply not play. SCP-3798’s anomalous effects only occur when the original Baby Mozart tape is inserted and the set is turned on. At this point, a black screen will be displayed which is occasionally interrupted by still images which appear to be from the tape, though some images have appeared which do not seem to originate from any version of Baby Mozart. SCP-3798 will also occasionally emit bursts of microwave radiation at a frequency of 1420.406 MHz.1 These emissions have only been detected while a still image is displayed on SCP-3798. The source of the emissions of radiation by SCP-3798 appears to be an undefined two-dimensional space that exists between the front plate glass and the dielectric layer of the TV set. This space only appears when the aforementioned conditions have been met. The source of this space is unclear, and it appears unresponsive to stimuli. Signals emitted by SCP-3798 are relayed in short bursts of 0.25 seconds and 1.02 seconds, which together correspond to letters and numbers in Morse code (0.25-second signal representing “dots” and 1.02-second signals representing “dashes”). In short timeframes, these codes have been shown to translate to English language sentences. A full transcript of images displayed and text received from SCP-3798 is listed in Addendum I.

Item #: SCP-3799 Special Containment Procedures: No access to Crozier Island is permitted, for either staff or civilians. The Foundation currently enforces a no-fly zone around Crozier Island, and several Foundation craft patrol the perimeter for any unwanted intruders. Any unauthorised personnel, be they civilian or staff, attempting to enter are to be issued with the appropriate amnestics to erase any unusual knowlege or interest in SCP-3799. Description: SCP-3799 is a perfect sphere composed entirely of snow and with a circumference of exactly 6 metres. SCP-3799 is suspended without visible means of support at a height of 500 metres over Crozier Island, Greenland. Crozier Island is the location of Site-799, a site devoted to experimental research. Contained within SCP-3799 is SCP-3799-1, the corpse of an adult male human wearing what appears to be an unknown variant of a Foundation uniform. SCP-3799-1's right arm protrudes out of SCP-3799, and was formerly holding a number of documents which have since been recovered. The cause of death of SCP-3799-1 is believed to have been from blood loss, apparently the result of self-inflicted wounds to the wrists. Scans of SCP-3799 show that it posesses an abnormally low Hume field. Attempts to penetrate or harm SCP-3799 or SCP-3799-1 have all resulted in failure. SCP-3799 first appeared on 24/12/1987, during an experiment in Site-799 forming part of Project [FURTHER INFORMATION EXPUNGED ON ORDER OF O5-█]. FURTHER INFORMATION RESTRICTED TO THE O5 COUNCIL AND AUTHORISED PERSONNEL ONLY WELCOME, OVERSEER The following documents are those recovered from SCP-3799-1. They are apparently 5 iterations of the file for SCP-3799, although no such iterations have ever been found in the Foundation's database. Because of the sensitive information contained in these documents, their contents are restricted to the O5 Council and specifically authorised personnel only. The information contained within these documents has caused Project Midwinter to be immediately discontinued, and the present containment measures to be implemented. Document 3799-1 Document 3799-2 Document 3799-3 Document 3799-4 Document 3799-5 A still image from Site-799 during SCP-3799 Item #: SCP-3799 Special Containment Procedures: No access to Crozier Island is permitted, for either staff or civilians, with the exception of the research team at Site-799. Several Foundation craft are to patrol the perimeter for any unwanted intruders. Any unauthorised personnel, be they civilian or staff, attempting to enter Crozier Island are to be issued with the appropriate amnestics to erase any unusual knowlege or interest in SCP-3799. All members of the research team at Site-799 are to remain within Site-799. Food and other necessary supplies are to be delivered to them remotely. Members of the research team are only to be allowed to remain on site for 2 months in any one stretch, and must take a holiday of at least 1 month in an area with low precipitation before being allowed to return to active duty. Any personnel exhibiting cognitohazardous symptoms thought to originate from prolonged exposure to SCP-3799-1 are to be quarantined and removed from Site-799 immediately. Description: SCP-3799 is a meteorological phenomenon affecting Crozier Island, Greenland. The island and an area stretching 0.5km away from it are perpetually undergoing precipitation of a substance identical to snow on a molecular level but which displays significant anomalous properties. This substance is known as SCP-3799-1. SCP-3799-1 contains a significant cognitohazardous effect to individuals in the immediate vicinity of large quantities of SCP-3799-1, or who observe SCP-3799-1 for long periods of time. The cognitohazard causes the affected subjects to develop an obsessive interest in the substance, apparently attributing to it feelings of intense joy, contentment, and enlightenment. There is currently no known way to counteract these effects. The effect does not fade over time, and in some subjects appears to have intensified. Research into a cure is ongoing. SCP-3799 first appeared on 24/12/1987, during an experiment in Site-799 forming part of Project [FURTHER INFORMATION REDACTED ON ORDER OF O5-█]. 14 people were affected by SCP-3799-1 before workable containment procedures were implemented. Currently, Site-799 is to be used only for research into SCP-3799, as well as possible ways to counter its effects. The current project lead is Dr. Simon Kells, a specialist in cognitohazardous anomalies. Addendum 3799-1: On 08/02/1991, researchers at Site-799 reported that 3 personnel had gone missing since the events of 24/12/1987. It should be noted that the area of SCP-3799's effect has increased by 3 metres since that time. An example of SCP-3799-1 Item #: SCP-3799 Special Containment Procedures: Site-799 is to be evacuated as soon as possible. As there is no known way to prevent SCP-3799, and SCP-3799-1 is apparently impermeable, effective containment is presently impossible. Foundation vessels are to patrol around SCP-3799's area of effect at a distance of 3km. Beyond personnel involved in the evacuation of Site-799, no personnel are to be allowed access to SCP-3799's area of effect. All members of the research team at Site-799 are to remain within Site-799. They are not to leave under any circumstances prior to the evacuation. Food and other necessary supplies are to be delivered to them remotely. Any personnel exhibiting cognitohazardous symptoms thought to originate from prolonged exposure to SCP-3799-1 are to be quarantined immediately. Several samples of SCP-3799-1 have been taken to Site 3150. Personnel are not to make direct skin contact with SCP-3799-1. All personnel must wear standard-issue hazmat suits if they wish to perform experiments involving SCP-3799-1. Description: SCP-3799 is a meteorological phenomenon affecting an area of approximately 6 km2, centred around Crozier Island, Greenland. This area is perpetually undergoing precipitation of a substance identical to snow on a molecular level but which displays significant anomalous properties. This substance is known as SCP-3799-1. SCP-3799-1 contains a significant cognitohazardous effect to individuals in the immediate vicinity of large quantities of SCP-3799-1, or who observe SCP-3799-1 for long periods of time. The cognitohazard causes the affected subjects to develop an obsessive interest in the substance, apparently attributing to it feelings of intense joy, contentment, and enlightenment. This leads to an eventual belief that activating SCP-3799-1's corrosive properties (see below) will result in a form of "transcendence", or a "destruction of lower functions". The meaning of these statements is rather ambiguous and vague, with affected subjects unwilling to discuss them further. There is currently no known way to counteract these effects. The effect does not fade over time, but rather intensifies in all subjects over an extended period. Research into a cure is ongoing, but it has been found that inflicting extreme pain and/or blood loss does have a delaying effect on the intensification of the cognitohazard. SCP-3799-1 possesses a corrosive property if it comes into contact with human cadavers. It gradually converts the cadaver into SCP-3799-1 by altering the subject on a molecular level. Subjects affected by SCP-3799-1's effects will feel compelled to immerse themselves in SCP-3799-1 within 48 hours of first developing symptoms, in order to expire through hypothermia and thus activate its effects. SCP-3799 first appeared on 24/12/1987 1944 1928, prompting the conversion of the long-abandoned Site-799 into a dedicated site for researching SCP-3799. SCP-3799's area of effect initially increased at a rate of 1m2 for every individual who expired due to contact with SCP-3799-1, but since 1968 1952, it has been increasing at a rate of 1 kilometre per expiration. Due to discrepancies in the documentation pertaining to Site-799 , it is believed that [FURTHER INFORMATION REDACTED ON ORDER OF O5-█]. Currently, Site-799 is to be used only for research into SCP-3799, as well as possible ways to counter its effects. The current project lead is Dr. Simon Kells, a specialist in cognitohazardous anomalies. Addendum 3799-1: As of 23/09/2017, SCP-3799's area of effect appears to be increasing without a need for further human matter. The anomaly has been reclassified as Keter. Look. Learn. Item #: Snow Special Containment Procedures: In the spring, there is dew and water and little biting crawlers, oozing from the small places to feed and bite and eat. In the summer, there is sweat and roots and grass and seething things, the sun burning and melting the living down below, matter drying and dying. In the autumn, there is death and rot, the leaves and trees and plants decaying. The trees collapsing, the fruits bursting, pustules bleeding their sustenance onto the baying, starving hordes below. In the winter, there is only purity. The world is frozen, its forms filled and made whole. Snow must not contain the others. It must change. It must alter. It must make pure. Description: You cannot see the snow, can you? Not really. You just see it as a bunch of frozen ice crystals, crystalline structures made through a combination of molecules on molecules, which settle on the tops of houses and on the tops of trees. But those of us here at Site-799 know better. Site-799 knows that the snow is something more. The snow is pure. The snow is perfect. Look at that blizzard up at the top of the page. Examine it. There is no blood on it, no mire. It is a perfect combination of light and crystal, reflections over reflections over reflections. Look at what it does to the buildings, to the pylon, their differences and failings smoothed over, replaced by more whole variants. The world is run by symmetry. Humans are not pure. We are composed of fetid clay and seething blood. Born of mire, flowing with mud and grit through our fleshy veins, pieces of frail tissue expanding and contracting in viscous ecstasy, constantly swinging between extremes of pain and pleasure. We are complexities whose beauty is buried under layers of worn matter, frail pieces of impure skin strung together with bone and ligaments. The last of us are holed up in here. We tried to resist, but it was pointless. And I see now that there was no point. We can step into the snow, we can see the light as it should have been. Our higher functions will be given to it, our baser forms will be reused as fuel, substance, matter. We shall be reborn as light and sound. A golden bird upon a bough. The eightfold walls of Timur's tomb, representing perfect cosmic order- not made of sand and stone and cobalt, but of the intangible shapes and colour of higher forms. Snow is perfection. Snow is a rejection of life, and all its excuses and petty reasoning. Snow is true and objective and unconcerned. It's time now. To walk into the fields of white, and into my destiny. I'm the last one. I resisted this Nirvana, and like a Bodhisattva, I stay behind to instruct others. Come, all you who labour and are heavy burdened. Feed it and remove the need for feeding. I am going outside now, and may be some time. Final image recieved from Site-799 before its loss in 1950. Item #: SCF-3799 Special Containment Procedures: SCF-3799 is currently uncontainable. The primary purpose of the Snow Containment Foundation is to prevent SCF-3799 from expanding further, and to find a method of neutralisation. To that end, a total of 54 sites spread across all three SCF-administered zones (Tibet, Uighurstan and Daevastan) have been established to perform research related to SCF-3799. Description: SCF-3799 is a blizzard, which presently covers 28% of the world's surface. This blizzard is composed of a form of snow known as SCF-3799-1. SCF-3799-1 contains a significant cognitohazardous effect to individuals exposed to it. Exposure is defined as being in the vicinity of large quantities of SCF-3799-1, or observing SCF-3799-1 for long periods of time. The cognitohazard causes the affected subjects to develop a religious interest in SCF-3799-1, eventually worshipping it as divinely-bestowed matter which will allow the individual to transcend earthly bonds. The only known way to counteract this cognitohazardous effect is through the infliction of severe pain or extreme bloodloss. However, these techniques only cause a delaying effect and can never entirely erase the cognitohazard. SCF-3799-1 possesses a corrosive property if it comes into contact with human cadavers. It gradually converts the cadaver into SCF-3799-1 by altering the subject on a molecular level. Subjects affected by SCF-3799-1's cognitohazardous effects- usually within 48 hours of first displaying symptoms of cognitohazardous infection- feel compelled to immerse themselves in SCF-3799-1, displaying great enthusiasm about expiring from hypothermia and activating SCF-3799-1's effects. The source of SCF-3799 is unknown. The date of SCF-3799's initial manifestation is unknown, but it is believed to have occurred well before the evolution of modern humans. It is believed that the origin of SCF-3799 was located on the World Island, located off the northwestern coast of the Danish colony of Eiriksland. Owing to its particular religious significance to cultures across the globe, the World Island is not claimed by any governmental body as territory. Until 1978 1962 1950, the SCF's Site-799 was established on the World Island for the purposes of studying and containing SCF-3799. It is unknown when or why Site-799 was originally established, but it is believed to have existed well before extant records begin in 1802. As is common knowledge, SCF-3799 is the focal point for the vast majority of the world's religions, particularly Asprianity and the Cult of the White Prophet. Knowledge of SCF-3799 is public, and large numbers of religious groups have been "sacrificing" individuals to SCF-3799 since time immemorial. As is also commonly known, virtually all political and economic developments in human history have been centred around SCF-3799 and ways to best provide enough fuel for its continued growth. Despite often contradictory evidence, it is believed that SCF-3799 has significantly altered the timeline of human history. This is due to several unexplained elements of world history, including but not limited to: The lack of any cultural exchange between the indigenous peoples of the Americas and those of Afro-Eurasia, despite many centuries of both groups visiting the World Island for religious purposes. The continued existence of the Daevite civilisation, despite ample documentation describing its downfall. It is believed that SCF-3799's anomalous effects helped mitigate the strength of the Daevites' potential rivals; the tribes of Keraitia in particular are known to have have their manpower depleted many times by sacrifices to SCF-3799. Why Site-799 is named thus, despite it being the oldest SCF base by many centuries. The existence of the 3922 1950 240 33 anomalies currently contained by the Snow Containment Foundation, despite the containment of SCF-3799 having always been its sole mission. The existence of the Snow Containment Foundation itself, as there are no records of any individuals opposed to SCF-3799's existence, or who have demonstrated anything other than total devotion to SCF-3799. Several documents referring to an "SCP Foundation", despite no such organisation ever having existed. The continued existence of the human race, given the number of individuals thought to have expired within SCF-3799 over the last 5000 years. It is believed that the Snow Containment Foundation's files on SCF-3799 have been tampered with multiple times, due to individuals affected by SCF-3799-1. Addendum 3799-1: On 14/06/2017, Snow Containment Foundation researchers detected a large energy signature from a point exactly 500m above the former Site-799. Because of the apparent changes in the timeline caused by SCF-3799, it is theorised that [DATA REDACTED ON ORDER OF THE SNOW-5 COUNCIL]. Addendum 3799-2: Why are we even trying? It's up to 44% now and it's only been a few weeks. How did this thing start? When did it start? What are we even still doing alive? Maybe we should just give up. Walk outside. Freeze ourselves. Maybe that is our only purpose. To become fuel. Addendum 3799-3: I don't think there are many of us left. There's only Site 112 and Site 3150 now. One of those houses small aircraft, and the other one is where I am. And everyone else here has walked outside. I don't understand what I'm reading. I don't know what any of these peoples and civilisations are. The human race has been contained within the sites forever. That's all there's ever been; the snowfall and the Foundation. What does this all mean? [This was the final document recovered from SCP-3799-1. Based on the contents, it is believed to have been written by SCP-3799-1 himself during the final hours of his life.] Item #: fucked if i can remember Special Containment Procedures: we're trying to stop it, and we think we know how Description: so it won't sodding stop. we tried everything. we tried sacrifice and ritual and setting things on it and they all died. we've got nothing left. but we worked it out in the end and now i'm on the way to fix it. there's this point that's miles and miles up, and it's where this comes from. it's got some weird time shit in it, that's what that idiot kells and his mates kept doing in some old reality. and now it exists everywhere. it's an idea, an idea they made that's eating up the present and the past and everything. changing it. changing history. making everything boring and uniform and oh-so-fucking pretentious. and it was us who did this shit. we made it. they were trying to get rid of all the anomalies that ever were, to stop the world dying a new death every other day, have some quiet days back. but it didn't work. this is what kells did, all that time we turned a blind eye to him. they wanted a world where they didn't have to work for their supper. they wanted purity and they got purity, fuck it. i haven't got a fucking clue what was real before. all i know is that it didn't work, because that's not what life is. we're made of blood and mire and fucking and the sweet taste of wine, the scent of wheat in fields back home. life. this thing isn't life. this thing is free of our useless imperfections, some robot-thing using our heads to create its pretentious fucking "beauty". it can't write a poem 'cause it thinks art is all imagery and airy-fairy-fuckery. art is life. shakespeare grew hops, for fucks sake. we live and we die and we glory in that fucking creation, and this thing wants to take all that and chop it up and make it into a bunch of straight lines and calculus. well FUCK THAT. i'm going into it, into its source, where it first came from. i'm going to bleed myself into its belly and stop it from having ever worked. i'm going to pilot this craft into the heart of this thing, covering my eyes and skin, and then when i'm right in the belly i'll cut myself and give it what it hates. blood. lifestuff, full of fuel and waste. it'll hate that. it hates blood and mire. it won't be able to cope. all the changes, all the shit it's done in time and space will be cut off at the source. this is my last testament. i've got all the copies of this thing, all the iterations gathered up. i reached into the archives, into the places where the snow hadn't done its job properly, and took these ghosts. these voices of what once was, and now never was. i'll take them with me, and if i survive this ck-class shit, maybe someone'll find them. the world that was. the world that those fuckers created. remember us. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3799" by Tufto, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3800	euclid	A shelter created by instances of SCP-3800-1. Item #: SCP-3800 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3800 is contained at Site-93, located near the Eurasian Pole of Inaccessibility in Xinjiang, China. It is to be kept in a standard containment locker. Currently, a colony of SCP-3800-11 is contained on a previously uninhabited archipelago (designated Outpost 3800, see Addendum) located at 26.412° S, 88.603° E. Hidden cameras have been installed at various locations on the Outpost to monitor and study the colony's activity. Currently, roughly 34% (4.5 kilometers) of the Outpost's landmass is covered in SCP-3800-1 structures. The colonization of Outpost 3800 is not expected to increase the range of SCP-3800 to dangerous levels. Testing held at Outpost 3800 of any kind must be approved by two Level 4 personnel. Additional SCP-3800-1 instances that manifest for any reason are to be tranquilized and transported to Outpost 3800. Emergency protocols to transport SCP-3800 to Lunar Outpost 45 have been arranged, and will be enacted should SCP-3800's radius grow past 2500 km. Description: SCP-3800 is an oil & acrylic print of Shaun Tan2's "They Came By Water" set in a wooden frame. It appears to be an original print; the title, artist signature, and identification number (283/500) are all present at the bottom of the print. SCP-3800's anomalous effect manifests when it is located within roughly 100 800 kilometers of any coastline, seashore, or ocean. Should this occur, instances of SCP-3800-1 will emerge from the ocean at an hourly rate of 5 to 20 instances per kilometer of coastline encompassed by SCP-3800's radius. Instances of SCP-3800-1 appear to be Caucasian humanoids with several physical abnormalities. Most notably, instances lack mouths3, nostrils, genitalia, mammaries, anuses, and body hair. Additionally, all instances share traits of dwarfism and show little signs of higher intelligence. They possess no form of written or spoken communication, and lack any sort of religion, trade system, or hierarchy. Following initial manifestation, instances will walk to shore and begin establishing a colony. When in a group4, instances of SCP-3800-1 will attempt to establish a series of structures away from humans, aggressive fauna, or inhospitable areas. Specifically, instances will attempt to build shelters out of available materials5 and begin farming any available flora6. SCP-3800-1 instances will become agitated and hostile if impeded from creating these structures, or if they are destroyed. Additionally, instances have shown the ability to craft and utilize rudimentary tools such as clubs, axes, and digging sticks out of stone, wood, and grasses, but appear to be unable to create or use more advanced technology. Once instances of SCP-3800-1 have established their initial colony, they continue to expand it, building additional farms and shelters further out from their original settlement point7. Instances almost never engage in activity that does not benefit their colony, and usually spend their time gathering materials, building structures, or tending to farms. As the colony's population grows, instances show a progressively greater ability8 to clear obstacles preventing them from expanding their territory, such as thick flora, animal territories, and man-made structures. However, SCP-3800-1 has never attempted to cross bodies of seawater (following their initial manifestation) and appear unable to do so. For each square km of land that SCP-3800-1 incorporates into their territory, SCP-3800's radius of effect increases by roughly 5 km. This radius also increases by 5 km per day whenever no active SCP-3800-1 colonies exist. Due to continental constraints, a radius past 2645 km9 would result in an exponential increase in SCP-3800's range and uncontrolled SCP-3800-1 manifestations thereafter, leading to a possible RK-Class restructuring scenario or NK-Class end of the world scenario should it be left on Earth. Initial Discovery: SCP-3800 was initially discovered on 2/3/11 following a 112 call from Useless Loop, Western Australia with reports of "strange men building houses in the middle of the road". Once an anomaly was confirmed in the area, Mobile Task Force Sigma-16 ("Dusty's Goons") were tasked with investigation, containment, and cleanup of the area. Initial contact with SCP-3800-1 was made on the same day, with structures created by the instances present for roughly 4 km along the eastern coast of Carrarang. Once cleanup of the structures began, SCP-3800-1 instances became hostile and attempted to attack MTF personnel, though not causing any serious injuries. All instances (and those that manifested thereafter) were tranquilized and transported to Site-23 for containment. While MTF-Σ-16 was stationed in the area, SCP-3800-110's radius of manifestation grew large enough to encompass much of the western Carrarang coast as well. A second colony manifested there and expanded unobserved for over 16 hours due to the small population density in the area. By the time this colony was discovered, the instances' manifestation radius had grown rapidly. Following this event, additional forces were called to aid in containment. SCP-3800-1 continued to manifest off the coast of Western Australia for roughly two weeks. During this time, SCP-3800's radius had grown to encompass the entirety of Carrarang's coastline, along with portions of Nanga, Dirk Harthog Island, and Francois Peron National Park. Due to the increasing radius of manifestation, emergency containment procedures were devised for the evacuation of Perth and other Western Australian cities, along with a complete quarantine of the Western Australian coast. On 15/3/11, SCP-3800 was discovered in an SCP-3800-1 shelter in northern Tamala and brought inland to Site-23, ceasing SCP-3800-1's manifestation. Due to inconsistencies between SCP-3800-1's initial manifestation location and SCP-3800's recovery location, it was determined that SCP-3800 had been moved at least once, likely by an instance of SCP-3800-1. Additionally, the structure in which SCP-3800 was located also contained a number of unusual11 items (see Addendum 2). The remaining SCP-3800-1 structures were destroyed soon after. Total losses numbered at $████ in damage, ██ injured civilians, and █ casualties. Amnestics were administered to ███ individuals. All captured SCP-3800-1 instances12 were placed under medically induced comas and contained at Site-23. Addendum: Roughly 5 months following initial containment, several instances of SCP-3800-1 manifested off the Great Australian Bight. Following containment (and subsequent remanifestation) of the instances, it was determined that SCP-3800's radius of effect had increased from an approximate 100 km to a minimum 800 km. It was hypothesized that SCP-3800's effect radius increases whenever no active SCP-3800-1 colonies exist. This was proven following multiple tests of SCP-3800-1 manifestation. All newly manifested instances13 (along with the instances contained in Site-23) were transported to what would become Outpost 3800 and awakened from their comas. Following the creation of Outpost 3800, SCP-3800 was transported to its current location at Site-93 using the SCPS Kristov14. Addendum 2 (Recovered Materials): Additional objects were found in the shelter where SCP-3800 was initially discovered. However, SCP-3800 was the only object that showed any anomalous capabilities. These items included one incomplete ocean navigation chart, one handwritten note, and one nonfunctional compass. All three items were dated to the late 1500s. The note appeared to be a ripped out diary page, and is written in Portuguese. Most of the note has been water damaged and is illegible. It is as follows, translated into English: + Show note. - Hide note. Day 133 It was a mistake to come here, for these lands are already inhabited. Their cities go on for as far as the eye can see… The rest of the crew entered a day ago, and only Tomas has returned to the ship. At least, it feels like Tomas. He said that the natives intend to "send a message to the children" and asked me to come with him. Said I could either join the crew or die with the ship. I told him to give me a day to decide, and he returned to the city. I believe my decision is made. Even now, I see them preparing their ships across the horizon. I must act now. The captain brought a sample from last year's outbreak, just in case. It won't survive long outside the ship unless I take it upon myself to bring it into the city. I see no other option - we were doomed once we reached the shore. I will bury my personal effects here, and should [illegible for the remainder of the note] Footnotes 1.

SCP-3801	thaumiel	Item #: SCP-3801 Special Containment Procedures: All recovered SCP-3801 instances are stored in a Class-C storage lockers, with at least one instance being present at each site containing memetic hazards. Sites requesting use of class E amnestics or higher are eligible to utilize SCP-3801 instances at the discretion of foundation personnel with level four clearance or higher. Transport and administration of SCP-3801 instances is managed by MTF Omicron-89 (“Ghostwriters”). Under no circumstances should anyone be forced to use an SCP-3801 instance (If noncompliance is expected, the subject should be asked to use the object without explanation). Description: SCP-3801 is a collection of 794 loose-leaf journals which produce an amnestic effect capable of purging most memetic effects on any human who records events within the object. This effect only occurs after the pages written on are removed. Pages removed from the notebooks invariably disappear within five minutes of removal. When all individuals aware of an event record it within an SCP-3801 instance and the corresponding pages are removed, some form of fictional recollection of said event will spontaneously begin circulating within the general population. These recollections can be expressed in mediums including books, video games, and children’s stories and are entirely mundane except for their origin. The actual creation of these recollections also appear to be mundane. Authors detained and interviewed by Foundation personnel have claimed to have been working on the recollection for months or years before the date SCP-3801 was used. Experiment Log: + Show Experiment Log - Hide Experiment Log Test 1 - ██/██/██ Subjects: 2 individuals who had made contact with SCP-████ (terminated) Procedure: Subjects were instructed to record their experience encountering SCP-████. The pages were then removed from the SCP-3801 instance. Results: Subjects displayed no memories of the encounter within 5 minutes of the pages being removed. Eight days later, an oral narrative of a doll that murdered the individuals who purchased it before returning to the store it was originally sold at began circulating at █████ Elementary School, NJ. Test 2 - ██/██/██ Subject: 1 D-Class Personnel Procedure: The subject removed one blank page of an SCP-3801 instance Results: SCP-3801’s pages disappeared in the same manner as the pages that were written on in Test 1. The D-Class Personnel reported no memory loss. No spontaneous recollections of the event were observed circulating the general population. Test 3 - ██/██/██ Subject: 1 D-Class Personnel Procedure: The subject wrote down their breakfast in an SCP-3801 instance and tore out the page. Results: The subject displayed no recollection of what they had first consumed on the day of testing within 2 minutes of the page being removed. Other D-Class personnel present in the cafeteria at the time displayed no loss of memory. No unexplained recollections of the event were observed circulating the general population. Test 4 - ██/██/██ Subject: 17 Survivors of ██/██/██ Site-██ containment breach Procedure: Each subject was provided a SCP-3801 instance and instructed to record the events of the breach that they were present. Subjects were instructed to remove their page after they had finished writing. Results: Subjects displayed no recollection of the containment breach concurrently with the last subject removing their sheet from the SCP-3801 instance. The spontaneous recollection of the event appeared 3 weeks later as a short story. The generated story differs from the actual events at several key points: Site-██ was replaced by a barn, MTF Theta-66 (“Redeyes“) was replaced by two professors and a librarian, and SCP-████ was successfully terminated rather than remaining at large. Test 5 - ██/██/██ Subject: 2342 individuals captured after exposure to SCP-████. Procedure: Subjects were forced to record their interactions with SCP-████. Uncooperative subjects were first threatened with physical violence, and then physically forced to record their experiences. The pages were then removed by foundation operatives. Memetic containment procedures were in effect. Results: Subjects displayed no memory of their exposure to SCP-████, and the memetic effect was successfully terminated. The recollection manifested between 1600 to 2100 years prior to the experiment in the form of a religious document. Said document appears to be mundane, but departs widely from the actual events written in SCP-3801, with SCP-████ portrayed as a benevolent divine figure. Worship of SCP-████ is now widespread, with approximately ██% of foundation officers being compromised by this event. Further historical changes are being investigated, but are complicated by a lack of information on the timeline prior to the use of SCP-3801. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3801" by Lady Zenth, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3802	safe	Item #: SCP-3802 Special Containment Procedures: The entire known supply of SCP-3802 is contained in a secure container at Site-42 awaiting transport to Site-81. Testing of SCP-3802-Alpha has been suspended due to the consistency of its anomalous effect. Testing of SCP-3802-Beta has been suspended due to resource concerns and is pending approval before resuming. Investigation into the parapharmacologist/PoI known as “dado” is ongoing. Description: SCP-3802 is an anomalous, low-viscosity liquid with a pink coloration contained in a white plastic bottle. The bottle has been labeled "hare growth by dado" in black permanent marker. SCP-3802’s anomalous effect manifests in two fashions: Alpha: When SCP-3802 is applied to the scalp of a bald child, a large tumor rapidly grows on the subject's scalp over the course of thirty seconds to one minute; this process is painless to the subject. This tumor takes the shape and size of an infant hare (genus: lepus), animates, grows fur, and separates from the subject.1 This separation has left no scarring in 100% of test cases. Upon dissection, it has been found that these hares are physically identical to non-anomalous hares, yet are shown to be genetically identical to their human host. SCP-3802-A instances are strongly bonded with their host; they exhibit lavish affection and playfulness with their host and extreme duress when separated from them. Beta: When SCP-3802 is applied to the scalp of a bald adult, multiple large tumors rapidly grow on various parts of the subject’s body over the course of one hour; this process is extremely painful to the subject. These tumors take the shape and size of fully-grown Flemish Giant rabbits (genus: O. cuniculus domesticus), animate, grow fur, and separate from the subject.2 This separation completely removed the crown of the head as well as other separation points of the subject.3 Dissection and genetic testing results were identical to SCP-3802-A instances. The SCP-3802-B instances are similarly bonded with their host; this is despite the fact that their host died during separation and without regard to their own cleanliness. Instances of SCP-3802-A and SCP-3802-B both display anomalously rapid growth of fur, far beyond that of their non-anomalous counterparts.4 It is unknown if this effect was intentional. Addendum SCP-3802.1: Discovery SCP-3802 was discovered when Foundation agents monitoring local news sites came across the headline, "You Won't Believe What Hopped Out of This Boy's Head!" on the website of Minneapolis, MN news affiliate KARE.5 Foundation agents traveled to the hospital where the event was said to have occurred and found a ward full of children playing with hares. A parent demonstrated SCP-3802 in action on his child for the agents and described a nurse giving him the phone number that led him to order the bottle of SCP-3802. All present were amnesticized and all SCP-3802-A instances were removed from the scene. The nurse was not found. Addendum SCP-3802.2: Transcription of Phone Call Foundation agents were able to retrieve a recording of the phone call between the parent and dado. [BEGIN LOG] Phone ringing Unknown Voice: Yes hello, you have reached dado, home of fine dado product and also eat-at-home restaurant. What are you to be needing today? Parent: Ummm.. hi? I was given this number by- Unknown Voice: Yes good, dado has many friends who get the people who need the products to the number that has the products from dado, what products from dado will you want to be needing? Parent: Well, my daughter had cancer, and- Unknown Voice: So you want dado to cure the cancer, I see what you are saying and although this will be very tricky for dado, dado is the cleverest thinker so I- Parent: No, that's not what I'm saying, I know that's not possible. My daughter has already had her surgery and is going through chemo, and all of her hair has fallen out. She's being as strong as she can be, but she's only twelve, and I know how kids can be to a girl who's lost her hair. Unknown Voice: Ah! You want dado to make the grow the hare, make her very smile instantly, yes? Parent: Can you do it? Unknown Voice: Of course can dado do it; you need to trust dado! Parent: Oh my gosh! Thank you so much! Unknown Voice: dado will send you Amazon Prime tomorrow, no need to pay, dado do this for you bone pro no. Parent hangs up phone Clattering sound Unknown Voice: (slightly muffled) Single bottle for rush order, simple, mix the scale, the hare for the kid, and dado no need to worry because it not to be used on adults no way. Phone cuts out [END LOG] Addendum SCP-3802.3: Related Extranormal Event One week after recovery of SCP-3802, multiple billboards in the Minneapolis area were anomalously altered to include advertisements for the “hare club for kids by dado.” The agencies in charge of the billboards were unaware of the change and had no record of communication from dado.6 Footnotes 1.

SCP-3803	safe	SCP-3803 displaying an instance of SCP-3803-1 within it. Item #: SCP-3803 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3803 is currently held in a secure container within Site-55's Low-Risk Item Storage. All instances of SCP-3803-1 are to be incinerated after testing is concluded. Following Incident 3803-1221, testing with SCP-3803 may only be conducted with written permission from three Level-4 Personnel. SCP-3803 is currently being held shut with a rubber band to be placed within a custom-made container with secure notches and an overhead weight to ensure the object remains shut while contained. Description: SCP-3803 is a standard size portable business card case made of brushed aluminum with a felt interior. The exterior is silver in color and decorated with a small engraving of the object's manufacturer; "APP Inc". SCP-3803 opens and closes with an interference fit latch, the tab of which has become unreliable following a containment breach (See Incident 3803-1221 for details). When SCP-3803 is opened it will produce 10 business cards unique to the subject opening it, referred to as SCP-3803-1. Instances of SCP-3803-1 are made of high-grade cardstock, possess simple designs, and are double-backed. The contents of SCP-3803-1 list professional information of the subject; listing one's affiliation and position in the front, with contact information on the back (if applicable). SCP-3803 will continue to produce instances of SCP-3803-1 containing the information of the subject who opened it, with more instances manifesting if the object is kept open. Additional instances manifest in tens every thirty seconds. Addendum 1: Testing Logs + Show Testing Logs - Hide Testing Logs Note: Foundation personnel's contact information; typically appearing on instances of SCP-3803-1, has been expunged from records for their privacy. Subject: Researcher Bellus Title on SCP-3803-1: Level-3 Researcher, SCP Foundation Instances Produced: 10 Subject: Dr. Xuen Title on SCP-3803-1: Containment Specialist, SCP Foundation Instances Produced: 10 Subject: Junior Researcher Callaway Title on SCP-3803-1: In Over Her Head, SCP Foundation Instances Produced: 10 Note: This is the first occurrence of SCP-3803 producing an instance of SCP-3803-1 not reflecting an accurate title. It is possible that SCP-3803 is capable of sensing one's perceived position as opposed to 'knowing' one's official title. Subject: Researcher Palacio Title on SCP-3803-1: Level-4 Researcher/Catering Expert Instances Produced: 20 Note: Researcher Palacio is a self-admitted amateur chef. SCP-3803 was held open for longer than any previously performed test and is the first recorded instance of producing more than 10 SCP-3803-1 instances. Subject: Dr. Jonas Title on SCP-3803-1: Traitor, GOC Instances Produced: 10 Note: Dr. Jonas defected from the Global Occult Coalition in 20██, and expressed discontent with the results of the test. Dr. Jonas requested a repeat of the test. Subject: Dr. Jonas Title on SCP-3803-1: Quisling, GOC Instances Produced: 10 Note: Dr. Jonas requested a third attempt to repeat the test. Subject: Dr. Jonas Title on SCP-3803-1: Judas, GOC Instances Produced: 10 Note: Dr. Jonas refused another attempt at testing. The results of the most recent experiments further belief in what was hypothesized following the Callaway experiment. Subject: D-99963 Title on SCP-3803-1: Serial Arsonist/███████ Cashier Instances Produced: 20 Note: The instances of SCP-3803-1 possessed the location of D-99963's Cell within Site 55 instead of contact information. SCP-3803-1 also displayed the subject's birth name and D-Class designation. This remains constant for almost all further tests performed with D-Class subjects. Subject: D-99963 Title on SCP-3803-1: Serial Arsonist/Human Guinea Pig Instances Produced: 10 Note: D-99963 was administered Class C Amnestics to erase memories of her criminal activities before coming under Foundation control. The produced instances of SCP-3803-1 still listed her as a 'Serial Arsonist', but also added 'Human Guinea Pig'. The subject's birth name was no longer listed on SCP-3803-1, only their D-class designation. It is possible that SCP-3803 may, in fact, possess a level of omniscience. Subject: D-008 Title on SCP-3803-1: Cannibal/Human Guinea Pig Instances Produced: 10 Note: D-008 was not administered amnestics prior to the experiment. Subject: D-627 Title on SCP-3803-1: Innocent/Accountant, ███ Bank Instances Produced: 10 Note: Investigation on D-627's background produced an extensive legal battle over the subject's involvement in the murder of 4 individuals in █████████, Virginia in 2███. It is currently unknown if SCP-3803's labeling of D-627 as 'innocent' means the subject is actually innocent or if the subject only believes himself to be. Subject: D-5400 Title on SCP-3803-1: Human Guinea Pig/Business Card Extraordinaire Instances Produced: 3,500 Note: SCP-3803 seemed to be aware of the intentions of the test with D-5400; to test the yielding capacity of the object over an extended period of time. Subject: D-743 Title on SCP-3803-1: Human Guinea Pig/Business Card Tycoon Instances Produced: 8,000 Subject: D-1221 Title on SCP-3803-1: Absolute Buffoon/Enemy of Nature Instances Produced: 12,000 Estimated over 2 billion Note: See Incident 3803-1221 Report. - Hide Testing Logs Addendum 2: Incident 3803-1221 Report + Open Report - Hide Report Following the last experiment with D-1221 utilizing SCP-3803, the object was placed in its designated container and stored. D-1221 failed to properly shut the object, as its latch had not locked into place fully and was slightly ajar. As SCP-3803 remained in an active state, it continued to manifest instances of SCP-3803-1 and quickly filled its container beyond capacity; ultimately leading to the destruction of the container. Due to the minimal security measures in Site 55's Low-Risk Item Storage and the low foot traffic in the area, the continued production of SCP-3803-1 instances went unnoticed for several days until Dr. Everwood attempted to enter the Low-Risk Item Storage and was buried under thousands of SCP-3803-1 instances. Dr. Everwood sustained minor injuries and was rescued by responding security personnel. Through the combined efforts of 2 security and 5 D-Class personnel, SCP-3803 was recovered and production of SCP-3803-1 stopped. The object was examined following retrieval; it was noted that the latch used in SCP-3803's open-closing mechanism had been bent as a result of its constant manifestation of SCP-3803-1 instances. Though the object will still shut, it has difficulties remaining closed and will often come ajar. The creation of a custom-made case to keep SCP-3803 from opening while not under direct supervision has been commissioned. SCP-3803 is currently being held shut with a rubber band. All instances of SCP-3803-1 from incident 3803-1221 contain the same information as the previously recorded 12,000 instances from the last test. All recovered instances from the incident have been incinerated. Following the incident, Site 55's Low-Risk Item Storage has been outfitted with security cameras and guards have been assigned to patrol the area. Update: On ██/██/2006, satellite images of the Amazon Rainforest in Rondônia, Brazil were brought to the Foundation's attention. The images display a dramatically accelerated rate of deforestation in the area over a short period of time. The captured images are dated ██/██/2003 (five days before SCP-3803 was contained) and █/██/2005 (fourteen days after Incident 3803-1221). Rondônia, Brazil, ██/██/2003 It is currently unknown if SCP-3803 and Incident 3803-1221 are the cause of the sudden mass deforestation. Additional tests to confirm a correlation are currently pending approval.1 Investigation of the logging activities in Rondônia's Amazon basin revealed supplier contracts with Avelar Professional Products Incorporated, shortened to 'APP Inc'. The Foundation is currently in talks with the Brazilian government to negotiate the cessation of all logging in the area to allow a more thorough investigation. Rondônia, Brazil, ██/██/2005 Footnotes 1. Including deployment of Mobile Task Force Theta-4 ("Gardeners") for investigation.

SCP-3804	euclid	 close Info X Check out more of my articles on my author page! Sample of logos displayed in SCP-3804. Clockwise, SCP-3804-4, SCP-3804-25, SCP-3804-174 Item #: SCP-3804 Special Containment Procedures: Foundation AI, DEINOPIS, has been embedded into all major email services to monitor inboxes for instances of SCP-3804. Maintenance of DEINOPIS is the responsibility of MTF Mu-4 ("Debuggers"). If an instance is located, the AI will make a copy for Foundation records, and the instance of SCP-3804 will be permanently deleted from the recipient's account. Any intended recipients identified as reading SCP-3804 are to be located and secured by Foundation agents, to then be administered Class-A or Class-B amnestics, as appropriate. Description: SCP-3804 is a series of emails purportedly written by Olivier de Whynn, CEO of "Magnum and Whitley".1 No record of either the individual nor company exists outside of SCP-3804. Several instances of SCP-3804 contain an image supposedly of de Whynn, but no two images have been the same. Individuals depicted have varied in age, race, weight, eye colour, and other aesthetic features. All encountered instances of SCP-3804 are labelled as being sent from "Olivier.de.Whynn@M+W.com", and are sent exclusively to business/work-related email accounts.2 The method through which SCP-3804 are sent and delivered is currently unknown. The emails' content varies from instance to instance, but consistently reference catastrophic events or circumstances, and the impact of these on Magnum and Whitley. Upon reading the email, the recipient will become agitated and preoccupied with their organisation's incident response policies and disaster recovery plans. Any plans or policies in existence will be deemed severely insufficient. If they have the resources and authority to do so, recipients will take various actions that they believe will improve their organisation's readiness for a catastrophic event.3 When questioned, recipients are unable to explain what they are preparing for, or how their actions will help mitigate its effects. Recipients will not recall reading the email, nor will they attribute their actions to it. When shown the email a second time no anomalous effect is present, and recipients will often express confusion over the nature of SCP-3804. Despite this, administration of amnestics has proved effective in counteracting SCP-3804's effects. Only the intended recipients are vulnerable to the effects of SCP-3804 - reading an instance will have no anomalous impact on other individuals. Discovery: SCP-3804 was discovered by the Foundation after ████ ██████, CEO of multinational corporation ██████, publicly announced plans, via a company blog post, to issue all employees with gas masks and emergency rations as standard, due to the possibility of "a rainy day occurring".4 Foundation agents were dispatched to investigate the situation, and the announcement was attributed to cyber vandalism. Addendum SCP-3804.1: Selected instances of SCP-3804:5 SCP-3804-2 SCP-3804-10 SCP-3804-14 SCP-3804-16 SCP-3804-2 Description: SCP-3804-2 was delivered to a cyber intelligence analyst at The National Bank of ██████, on ██/██/██. Following SCP-3804's discovery, MTF Mu-4 were employed to monitor for further incidents and investigate the SCP. Email: I am sure that we have all been unsettled by the events of the last days. The destruction of Orleans and subsequent disturbances across the globe have been truly shocking to witness. As the dust settles and our national infrastructure finds itself slow to recover, now is a good time to reacquaint ourselves with Magnum and Whitley's "FlexiWork" policy. We support you to be flexible in how you work, whether that's from the office, your home, or your nearest relocation or evacuation centre. Portable wifi hotspots and ethernet cables are available to all employees from the Operations and Services desk on Floor 3, but our state of the art internet security allows you to utilise any home or public wifi networks. If you're working in public though, please ensure you have a privacy filter placed over your laptop screen. You never know who could be looking over your shoulder! Fond regards, Olivier Outcome: Recipient contacted their HR department to report that they could not locate various documents on the company intranet. Content reported missing were instructions on treating third-degree burns, weaponisation of office equipment protocols, and company policy on consuming the flesh of other colleagues. When informed these documents did not exist, the recipient became irate, and assaulted the colleague who he was speaking to. The recipient was administered amnestics whilst in police custody, with his actions attributed to an episode of poor mental health. SCP-3804-10 Description: SCP-3804-10 was delivered to the Facilities Manager of ██████ Hospital, located in █████████, on ██/██/██. The email address through which SCP-3804 is delivered had been added to most popular email services' spam filters after the delivery of SCP-3804-9. This proved to be an ineffective method of containment, with instances still appearing in inboxes. Email: Thank you to all of you who have continued to work hard given the recent and difficult circumstances we find ourselves in today. Back in January you and your colleagues voted "Kindness" to be our message of the year. As you go about your work today, bear that message in mind - is there a colleague you could support with a report? Could you chat to your team away from their desks to see how they're doing? Have you phoned an elderly relative who may be feeling afraid of the Moon's Red Eye? Given recent events, there are a number of changes which we will have to make around our offices nationwide. We envisage that these changes will only be temporary, and normal service will resume shortly: All on-site canteen and refreshment facilities will be closed. Please bring your issued rations with you. Replacements will not be available. You may notice an increased presence of security personnel around the office, some of whom may be equipped with firearms. Please do not be alarmed by this, it is for your own, and for the company's, protection. When you arrive at your office, security personnel may need to examine you for signs of infection. Please cooperate with their requests so you are permitted entry as quickly as possible. All office basements and underground car parks are being re-purposed as shelters. If an alert is sounded please make your way quickly and quietly to your nearest shelter. Do not use the lifts. Do not look up at the sky. Unfortunately, we will also have to postpone next week's Mangum & Whitley's Awards Night. We will however, be re-opening the voting for the "Colleague of the Year" award, so get voting via the link on the staff portal now! Until next time, Olivier Outcome: The Facilities Manager altered the next delivery of food produce for the Hospital canteen, cancelling all fresh produce and increasing their frozen goods order by a factor of 30. Amnestics were administered, and the order attributed to a system glitch. SCP-3804-14 Description: SCP-3804-14 was delivered to Researcher ██████, stationed at Site-17 on ██/██/██. Email: Over the weekend you may have heard disturbing allegations concerning our relationship with Tragia Industries and our subsequent involvement in the Cape Town Massacre.6 We have a renowned reputation for professionalism and excellence, and have provided expert advice and guidance for over 30 years. This is not a failing of M&W's, but we admit there were failings in the conduct of the project team engaged by Tragia. All those involved have been obtained by the appropriate authorities. We are expecting significant scrutiny of our role, and particularly of our Thaumaturgy and Occult department (commonly referred to internally as T+O). If you receive questions from friends or family on this, please refer to our handy talking points guide, which is attached to this email.7 If you receive any inquiries from the Interim Government's Media Department, please immediately contact your Team Leader. Best wishes, Olivier de Whynn Outcome: Researcher ██████ flagged the containment procedures of several SCPs capable of inducing an XK-Class event as inadequate, and contacted corresponding head researchers to demand a containment review. Class-A amnestics administered. Priority of SCP-3804 containment upgraded. SCP-3804-16 Description: SCP-3804-16 was delivered on ██/██/██ to 60% of employees at the London office of private equity firm, █████████. Unlike previous emails, this instance contained no graphical elements. To date, this is the only instance which has been delivered to multiple recipients. Email: We made a mistake. Months ago we should have closed the offices, sent you home to your families, home to your loved ones, home to the ones who truly matter. I think we all knew what the Arrival heralded, we just didn't want to admit it. Didn't want to admit what it was. What it meant. I was just trying to keep the ship afloat and carry on with business as usual. It was less frightening for me that way. I hope it made things less frightening for you too. I've not seen a soul in weeks, and I'm running out of supplies. I don't know how long I have left, and I don't know how many of you are left. I just hope there is someone there to receive this message. Outcome: Over a period of 7 minutes, all recipients made their way to the office's roof terrace, and jumped into the internal courtyard 23 floors below. Total fatalities numbered ███. All witnesses were administered class-A amnestics, and a Foundation operation was instigated, attributing the deaths to a large fire within the office. The building was suitably damaged, survivors' memory loss was accredited to smoke inhalation, and media coverage controlled to correspond with this version of events. Following SCP-3804-16, DEINOPIS was successfully implemented and containment accomplished. SCP-3804-17 was deleted without being read by recipient, with no follow up action necessary. Footnotes 1. Referred to in several emails as "M&W" or "M+W". 2. Both the email address and domain SCP-3804 are sent from are nonexistent. 3. Actions have included revision of policy, requesting additional security budgets, stockpiling of food and supplies, issuing a security lockdown for all offices, and proposing the dismissal of all foreign employees. 4. See file 3804-1b for the full post. 5. Please contact RAISA for access to the full collection. 6. Tragia Industries were a real organisation, based in ██████, South Africa. Foundation personnel sent to investigate encountered armed resistance, and responded with appropriate force. All hostile entities were eliminated, and a large amount of anomalous items were located. An investigation is underway. 7. No document was attached to the email.
SCP-3805	thaumiel	Item #: SCP-3805 Level 3/3805 Classified Example of SCP-3805's "Shell" layer. Special Containment Procedures: Due to the progress of gestation, SCP-3805 cannot be contained indefinitely. Until alternative methods of containment can be devised, Protocol UN2-Maker must be enacted at every equinox. Expedition attempts into SCP-3805 via SCP-3805-1A are to be prevented, with the exception of parties attempting Protocol UN2-Maker. Any personnel or entity returning from SCP-3805-1A not identified as part of MTF Orion-19 (Rift Keepers) is to be terminated immediately. No contact with any returning personnel is to be initiated by those without full access to Protocol UN2-Maker. Protocol UN2-Maker must be initiated from Site 21/SCP-3805-1A. All information related to Protocol UN2-Maker is restricted to the Site 21 Director, Protocol initiators, MTF Orion-19 and Level 5 personnel. The 3805 Misinformation Campaign must continue to track all developments and account for any possible discovery of SCP-3805. All attempts by a civilian body or GOI to access any geological layer beneath the lithosphere, regardless of intent or method, is to be halted by any means necessary. Any intrusive attempts to breach the lithosphere are to be halted by MTF Orion-19. Any temporary instance of SCP-3085-1 must be isolated until dispersion. Any new permanent SCP-3805-1 instances are to be catalogued and reported to MTF Orion-19. SCP-3805-1B is to remain monitored by Observation and Research Post (ORP) 5303. Any attempts to access or neutralise SCP-3805 are to be halted by MTF Orion-19, with lethal force if necessary. Description: SCP-3805 is a gestating embryonic entity located at the core of what were considered the geological layers of the Earth. The lithosphere is considered a "shell" and outer membrane, while the asthenosphere and mantle are hypothesised to act in a similar manner to albumen in avian eggs (egg white). The outer core is known to be a network of gelatinous tunnel structures, partially linked to SCP-3805-1, while the inner core is recognised as the embryo itself. All layers below the lithosphere are recognised as organic in nature. How SCP-3805 is related to Earth's geological functions, magnetic field and similar items is unknown. Drilling, excavation and similar activities into the lithosphere does not affect SCP-3805 or its gestation process, however intrusive actions to layers below the asthenosphere are liable to activate instances of SCP-3805-1. While SCP-3805 does not currently possess any form of advanced consciousness, it is still able to spawn cases of SCP-3805-1 as a reaction to external stimuli. Further investigation into the generation of SCP-3805-1 instances is ongoing. SCP-3805-1 are dimensional rifts of varying size created by SCP-3805, activated as a response to external stimuli. Visually these rifts are often tinged a dark purple, and what appear to be stars and purple nebula are visible on the other side. The majority of these rifts are both of moderate size and temporarily active, dispersing when the cause of external stimuli is neutralised. The method of neutralisation varies depending on the nature of the threat, but reports indicate SCP-3805-1 contains unclassified entities that are utilised as defensive mechanisms. (See Addendum 3805-1RO4). These entities are known to be tied to SCP-3805-1, and as such cannot spread beyond the reach of the rift. SCP-3805-1A's original entrance, prior to Site 21's construction. There are currently two known SCP-3805-1 surface instances that have remained active over an extended period, with no known method of dispersal available. Both SCP-3805-1A and SCP-3805-1B are tied to physical archways, while standard SCP-3805-1 instances are not. These archways are constructed entirely of stone. SCP-3805-1A is located at Site 21 and is currently the only "stable" rift. This rift is directly linked to SCP-3805 and allows entry by both humans and artificial constructs (See Exploration Log 3805-1A[DATA EXPUNGED BY ORDER OF O5-██]). SCP-3805-1A allows direct access to the organic layers of SCP-3805, with the rift's exit being located 15 kilometres beneath the "outer core". As a result SCP-3805-1A is the only location where Protocol UN2-Maker can be enacted. How human access is possible considering the immense temperatures and pressure at that depth is uncertain. +Access Memo 3805/FR1/-1: -Access Granted, Welcome Researcher. File 3805/FR1/-1: As scientists, we have always attempted to assign even the strangest anomalies in our charge with some rational explanation. In order to understand something, we have to make it relate to our laws of reality as best we can, no matter how alien it is. This requirement is what makes study of SCP-3805 impossible. The only reason we know SCP-3805 is organic is because of SCP-3805-1A. Because we physically stepped through a dimensional rift and stood in the core of the world. Yes, we had some success with non-intrusive measures, but we never would've known the full extent of SCP-3805's nature if it wasn't for that portal. The only reason we can even say a -1 instance is a "dimensional rift" is because what's on the other side is complete anathema to our standard of reality. We are witnessing something utterly alien, and trying to explain it with the laws bound to our own planet. So for the love of whichever god you pray to, stop trying to understand this thing. Our position is already tenuous, risking our ground with tests and experiments is foolish at best. Focus on keeping the situation stable and 3805 contained. We're not here to satisfy your curiosity. Site Director Kaul. SCP-3805-1B is located underneath a mansion in ████, France. SCP-3805-1B is currently inert and has been sealed by unknown means, however the occupants of the SCP-3805-1B estate are known to be responsible. It is hypothesised SCP-3805-1B served a similar function to SCP-3805-1A, with recovered items of interest supporting this hypothesis (See Addendum 3805-1B/RI). Addendum 3805/R1: Due to an attempt at sabotage by Agent ██████, Agent ████, Site Director ████ and Doctor ██, application of Procedure UN2-Maker was only partially successful. As of ██/██/████, the O-5 Council will maintain full control over the procedure. Site Director ████ was assigned to Procedure UN2-Maker along with Doctor ██. Both Agents were terminated upon reassignment failure. Addendum 3805-1RO4: Stimuli Entity Description Entity Reaction One drilling jumbo, positioned near SCP-3805-1A. Three large, vaguely cephalopod tentacles. Entity disables jumbo, before dragging it into the rift. No personnel were lost. Work crew (Attempt to seal SCP-3805-1A) Entity is approx. 5 metres tall, consisting entirely of a dark blue liquid, similar to oil. Work crew is "absorbed" by entity, visibly attempting to escape or call for help while inside it. Entity exits upon absorbing all personnel. Submarine drilling operation in the Marianas Trench Entity resembles a large, obese goat with no hind legs. Both front legs are elongated and appear triple jointed. Actiniaria-like (Sea anemone) growths are present in both eye sockets and inside the mouth. Entity propelled itself by unknown means and destroyed all relevant machinery. Both the machinery and overseeing submersible were caught by the Actiniaria growths, which extended from the eyes, and crushed. Detonation of subterranean nuclear warheads during Site ███ containment breach. Entity was not visible on the visual spectrum, further data pending. Site was removed from our dimension, no traces of Site ███ remain. Pieces of debris with Foundation markings were visible in SCP-3805-1A upon a later investigation. All SCP items assigned to Site ███ are unaccounted for. Oil derrick with modified anomalous drilling system. Survivors state the entity was "a kraken". Cephalopod traits were noted. No further evidence could be collected. Derrick was destroyed prior to activation. This may suggest SCP-3805 is now able to perceive threats prior to any physical stimuli. A 15m wide comet. [REDACTED BY ORDER OF O5-██ AND O5-██] [REDACTED] These entities generated from the -1 instances seem to act as antibodies. This align with our current theory; that SCP-3805 does not act on a conscious level or possess any degree of full sentience. Dr Jeninov Addendum 3805-1B/RF: Following the discovery of SCP-3805-1B, the estate above the sealed anomaly was searched. Among multiple items of interest were the notes of Sir ████ ████████, the final owner of the estate. Most of these notes are files related to experimentation and research into the background of SCP-3805-1B. These notes also delve into SCP-3805, its possible origins, SCP-3805-1 and further tangents. Of note are the final pages of ████████'s journal, which detail an expedition into SCP-3805-1B. The body of ████████ was also found, with a gunshot wound to the skull. The final page has been translated from French. The portal is shut. Victory is ours, for however long it matters. Whatever thing we found down there was put to the sword, I saw the horrible pulsating heart quiver and expel its foul blackness. The stars and void poured out of it, even deeper than that which we were already among. It was a hollow achievement. Pierre was the only one to make it out with me, the rest of the mercenaries and holy warriors I attracted to my cause fell at the hands of those hell-spawn. We had trekked through a profusion of flesh and hideous starlight to stop the spread of that unnatural- A portion of the text is illegible due to a large splatter across the page, which is a mix of ink and blood. But greater thing is sated by our violence. I would not be foolish enough to assume we ever could've done it harm. We were a sacrifice, a batch of foolhardy souls now united in matyrdom for the sake of survival. Alas, it will all be for nothing. The stars will align in unremitting motion and the thing will hatch from this shell of dirt and rock. We shall all be lost to the thing that birthed us. I will not speak of this, my intent is to bury this knowledge. Mankind can live and die in ignorance of my despair. None need know of the inescapable birth of the World. File End. Would you like to access further items? … Request Acknowledged. Please submit access codes. Access Granted. ALERT: You have (1) unread item. Would you like to access further items? Request Acknowledged. Transferring file… +File 3805/CP_UN2-M: -WARNING, THIS FILE IS RESTRICTED, UNAUTHORISED ACCESS WILL RESULT IN IMMEDIATE TERMINATION. MESSAGE TO: Site Director Miranda Kaul Accessing Data… Hello Director. I'm sure we're both aware that your sudden appointment to this office was a result of a…compromising event at this Site. I am not sending this message out of a desire to intimidate you out of a similar course. To be clear, this is a welcome into office, and into the circle of trust. My belief is that ignorance was the cause of your predecessors betrayal. My colleagues disagree with me. I hope you will prove me right in due time. I'm sure you have questions. About UN2-Maker, the plentiful expungements and black-boxed details. Maybe you want to know more about 3805-1, or about MTF Orion-19. But I can't answer all your questions here Director. This will serve to open your eyes. We'll speak again soon. O5-11. Attached files: 3805_vers.2 File Received. Welcome, MIRANDA KAUL. Accessing Data… Item #: SCP-3805 Special Containment Procedures: In addition to standard document: In order for SCP-3805's continued viable use, the entity must maintain its current state of gestation. All attempts at growth from SCP-3805 are to be prevented by means of Procedure UN2-Maker. To provide suitable candidates, target persons are to be fed specific information regarding SCP-3805 and SCP-3805-1. These files include a completed journal by the deceased found at SCP-3805-1B and detailed documentation on fully developed versions of SCP-3805. Conditions of Procedure UN2-Maker are designed to replicate the events documented by persons involved in the expedition through SCP-3805-1B. Procedure UN2-Maker requires the following: At least four individuals fully aware of SCP-3805's nature and "impossible" containment. All individuals must have reached a sufficient level of emotional distress/trauma. (These individuals are hereby referred to as "batch") Item 3805 Alpha (An elongated knife made of an unidentified metallic substance, origin is extradimensional). The delivery of batch to the centre of SCP-3805, containing the "heart" (known to be a physical avatar for SCP-3805). The provocation of the "heart". The termination of all personnel by the "heart". The termination of the "heart" with the use of Item 3805 Alpha. The marking of the "heart" with Item 3805 Alpha with a runic cognitohazard. Exfiltration of surviving MTF units. Any personnel exiting SCP-3805-1A must be terminated immediately. MTF Orion-19 (Rift Keepers) are responsible for the implementation and success of Procedure UN2-Maker. Description: In addition to standard document: SCP-3805 has the capacity, at its current stage in development, to counter extraterrestrial threats that would otherwise significantly damage or destroy it. Due to this, multiple XK Class end-of-the-world scenarios have been avoided. SCP-3805 appears to respond to both anomalous and non-anomalous threats, with no current priority towards one or the other. There is currently no usable means of target prioritisation. SCP-3805 appears to respond against threats in a similar manner as it would any terrestrial attack, generating a dimensional rift/entity to destroy or otherwise remove the instance. Exploration of SCP-3805-1 has revealed that some objects, both anomalous and otherwise, remain within SCP-3805-1. There is no known way, with the exception of SCP-3805-1A, for any of these items to exit the dimension. All anomalous objects are currently recognised as contained. Currently, no object lost to SCP-3805-1 can be recovered. SCP-3805 does not seem to be able to engage with any threats that are either not on a direct course to Earth or beyond a certain range. As a result, SCP-3805 is to be supplemented by Foundation defence assets and cannot be relied upon to counter any threats in deep space. As SCP-3805's growth cannot be reversed without a loss of its current defensive capacity, no methods of degenerating SCP-3805 or retarding its growth are under research. To this end, every possible action must be taken to ensure Procedure UN2-Maker is maintained. Failure to implement Procedure UN2-Maker will result in an XK Class end-of-the-world scenario and complete planetary destruction. MIRANDA KAUL, Please stand by for document expungement… Document Expunged. Please log off upon finishing your activities Logging Off…
SCP-3806	safe	An instance of SCP-3806 in the ████████ County Cemetery. The phone number inscribed above the entrance has been blacked out for security reasons. Item #: SCP-3806 Special Containment Procedures: Instances of SCP-3806 are to be secured with padlocks and automated surveillance systems. Should any unauthorized individuals gain or attempt to gain entry to any SCP-3806 instance, they are to be apprehended, debriefed, and administered Class-A amnestics. Test subjects must be psychologically screened. Individuals with a recent or current history of depressive disorders and suicidal ideation are ineligible for testing. Foundation personnel may volunteer for testing, with preference being given to the terminally ill, elderly, and those working in fields with high mortality rates. Description: SCP-3806 are mausoleums approximately the same dimensions as a telephone booth, with a 13-digit phone number inscribed above the entrance. These mausoleums are always found in cemeteries or graveyards where their appearance is unremarkable, with ███ known instances worldwide. Within each instance is a rotary payphone, circa 1950, unconnected to any phone lines or power source. If an individual places a fiat coin of any denomination into the coin slot and dials the number written above the doorway, they will be connected to SCP-3806-A. No detectable signals are transmitted or received during these calls. Auditory analysis of SCP-3806-A indicates it is most likely female, between the ages of 65 and 85, and suffers from Reinke's edema, presumably caused by long-term tobacco use. It will always speak to the caller in their native language and dialect. Simultaneous testing has resulted in callers being put on hold1, suggesting that SCP-3806-A is a singular entity confined to normal space-time. SCP-3806-A claims to be a representative of an organization called the "Halls of Grandos", capable of arranging specific afterlives on behalf of their clients. These claims are currently unverified, although testing involving terminally ill Foundation personnel has revealed that arrangements to die at specific times can be fulfilled. First Recorded Interview with SCP-3806-A: Interviewer: Agent Mark Roland Interviewee: SCP-3806-A <Begin Log> SCP-3806-A: Hello, and thank you for calling the Halls of…(SCP-3806-A coughs for several seconds)…Halls of Grandos. How may I help you today? Agent Roland: I'm sorry, did you say Halls of Mandos, like from Tolkien's Legendarium? SCP-3806-A: (pauses) You a lawyer? Agent Roland: No. SCP-3806-A: Good, because if I wanted to talk to a lawyer, I know where to find one. Believe me (coughs, and is then heard lighting a cigarette). Tolkien's stuff is protected by copyright until 2044, so until then we're the Halls of Grandos. Agent Roland: I see. I assume based on your name and the location of this phone box that your organization has something to do with the afterlife. SCP-3806-A: While you know what they say about assuming; it makes an ass out of u and me! (SCP-3806-A laughs for several seconds before entering a coughing fit) SCP-3806-A: You're not wrong though, son. Worst part about being mortal is the dying, obviously. Good news is you've got immortal souls. Bad news is that it's anyone's guess what happens to it. You can worship a god and hope that they're a) real, and b) will hold up their end of the bargain, but you might end up trapped in your own rotting corpse or wandering the astral plane until you're snatched up by the Scarlet King or…uh, you know, the Sarkic one? Yabba Dabba Do or something; you know what I'm talking about, right? Agent Roland: I do, Ma'am. Are you saying you offer some kind of protection against these fates? SCP-3806-A: You're 2 for 2 kiddo. We've made contracts with numerous cosmic entities who are both willing and able to shepherd mortal souls to their choice of afterlife. We tell you what afterlives we know about and how to get in to them. Our certified psychopomps will escort you to any afterlife you qualify for, and if you want they can even make sure you're reunited with dead loved ones. Agent Roland: What do you charge for this service? SCP-3806-A: Not a single obol. I don't know if you're aware of this, but there's a lot more mortals than there were just a few centuries ago, which means a lot more souls here on the astral plane. Combine your increased population with secularization, and you got a recipe for biblical numbers of displaced souls. Sure it's sad, but it was also bringing property values down, you know? Anyway, bunch of the Old Gods decide to have a gala, raise some funds, and here we are. You don't have to wander limbo for eternity and the Old Gods get a tax write-off. Agent Roland: Makes sense to me. This service you offer, it occurs upon natural death? SCP-3806-A: That's an option, or they could pick you up at a time of your choosing. The Reaper's busy, but he can squeeze you in right now. Agent Roland: (pauses) I'll pass. (SCP-3806-A breaks out into laughter again, followed by another coughing spell) Agent Roland: So, what sort of afterlives are you offering? SCP-3806-A: We got all kinds. There's traditional fluffy cloud heavens, Summerland if you want to still enjoy the pleasures of the flesh, Nirvana if you're seeking enlightenment, this weird desert place, reincarnation… Agent Roland: Okay, I should probably ask some follow up questions about those but…but are there any 'cosmic entities' who recruit mortal souls to fight against some ultimate evil in a heavenly war? SCP-3806-A: Yep, that would be Valhalla. Prove yourself a brave and virtuous warrior and the AllFather will welcome you into his ranks, and you can fight the Scarlet King or Yabba Dabba Do or whoever at the End of Days. Is that what you want? Agent Roland: (pauses) I think so. SCP-3806-A: (typing is heard) Okay Mr. Roland, I've marked that down. You should know that you don't qualify yet, but a victory over a superior foe that averts tragic death and destruction would be enough. Do you have a second pick in case… Agent Roland: No, I'll do it. I'm in the right line of work for it. SCP-3806-A: 'At's the spirit. Don't let your dreams be dreams. A Valkyrie will come to escort you to Valhalla upon your glorious death in combat! Agent Roland: (softly) Thank you. SCP-3806-A: Happy to help sonny. You have yourself a nice day now. Bye Bye. (the call ends, and is followed by a 'dial tone' of Latin prayers until Agent Roland hangs up) <End Log> Addendum: Agent Roland has received an official reprimand for using this test for his personal benefit without authorization.

SCP-3807	keter	Item #: SCP-3807 Special Containment Procedures: Due to the effect SCP-3807 and SCP-3807-1 instances have on observers, witnesses outside of trial situations do not need to be amnesticized. Those present during SCP-3807's courtroom appearance should be detained and amnesticized. However, SCP-3807's clients will retain full memory of SCP-3807 even if given amnestics. As any attempts by clients to talk about their experiences to non-Foundation-aligned individuals will result in scorpions manifesting in the client's throat, Foundation agents must surveil these individuals in case amnesticization of a witness is needed. Any photographs or videos must be removed via webcrawler; a similar procedure should be used to find and remove news coverage of SCP-3807's appearances in court. A Foundation-employed psychiatrist should be on call for all clients who wish to receive treatment, as witnessing SCP-3807's methods can be detrimental to mental health. A grassroots media campaign is currently ongoing to reduce tourism to [REDACTED]. Description: SCP-3807 is a humanoid entity with the head of an unknown canine1, the body of an Egyptian man, and a prehensile tail ending in two keratinous spikes. SCP-3807 breeds canine animals that share its curved snout and forked tail. These animals are referred to as SCP-3807-1. Despite its obvious visual abnormalities, the oddity of SCP-3807's appearance is not remarked upon by observers - instead, their focus is limited to determining the exact species of animal SCP-3807's head resembles. This perception effect lasts precisely 30 minutes after seeing SCP-3807, after which the subject will remember nothing abnormal about SCP-3807 whatsoever when questioned. SCP-3807-1 instances share this effect on perception. SCP-3807 is fluent in English, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, Coptic, Beja, and Nobiin.2 SCP-3807 currently resides in [REDACTED], Egypt, a popular tourist town. All attempts at removing SCP-3807 and placing it into containment have failed. During missions to capture SCP-3807, weapon mechanisms will malfunction, arguments will arise over proper protocol, and participating individuals will experience a marked decrease in their ability to follow instructions correctly. In addition, all gasoline in vehicles used to pursue or find SCP-3807 will be replaced with an equivalent volume of locust bodies. SCP-3807 has, however, been amenable to contact with the Foundation, appears willing to facilitate efforts to maintain normalcy, and has put in place the listed perception effects upon Foundation request for cooperation with amnesticization efforts. SCP-3807 has also recently lifted the gag effect on clients who are speaking about their experiences with it so long as they are speaking to Foundation employees. Whenever a non-Egyptian citizen enters the boundaries of [REDACTED], an instance of SCP-3807-1 will approach them bearing a business card, and proceed to follow them wherever they go. The card welcomes them to [REDACTED] and offers the legal services of "Seth Hasani, Defense Attorney, Partially Retired" without fee. Instances of SCP-3807-1 cannot be removed from the immediate vicinity of their charge. After the affected person receives the card, the instance of SCP-3807-1 will become hostile to any individual who threatens their charge in any way, going so far as to injure or kill harassers who do not desist. If, at any point in time after receiving the business card, a recipient finds themselves under arrest or at risk of deportation, SCP-3807 will manifest and serve as their lawyer. In the courtroom, SCP-3807 resolves cases by a variety of anomalous means. Court Appearances Log: Date: 10/13/16 Defendant: Violet Reginald Method: All evidence collected by the prosecution immediately turned to molten rock upon being presented to the court. Date: 12/3/16 Defendant: Christina Parks Method: All attempts to travel to the courtroom where the hearing was scheduled to take place instead led the traveler to an uninhabited location in the desert. Date: 2/24/17 Defendant: Daniel Reyes Method: Every legal reference consulted during the trial stated it was illegal to arrest someone who was uncircumcised, despite all participants having no such memory of the law. Date: 3/15/17 Defendant: Matthew Wolf Method: All security tapes depicting the defendant were altered to replace the defendant with an okapi. Date: 4/7/17 Defendant: Andrew Castellano Method: Each time the prosecuting attorney asked the defendant a question, a large pustule appeared on their face, neck, lower arms, or inner thighs. Excerpt of Courtroom Log: Foreword: SCP-3807 made his closing statement, with his defendant, Jason Flores, pleading "Not Guilty" to charges of grand theft auto. <BEGIN LOG> SCP-3807: Ladies and gentlemen of the jury! What you were promised here today was a trial! A fair and just procedure, where my poor, unfortunate defendant would find himself facing you, a jury of his peers in humanity and in mortality.

SCP-3808	euclid	Note: This file possesses cognitohazardous properties and should only be viewed by personnel with an Anomalous Impulse Resistance Index of at least 83. All other personnel should close this file immediately and report to their supervisor. Image of SCP-3808 altered for safe viewing. Item #: SCP-3808 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3808 is kept on-location, placed on a pedestal under a glass bell jar. One guard must be present at all times to ensure that visitors do not take photographs of SCP-3808, as well as to answer questions posed by visitors. Visitors who take issue with SCP-3808's situation should be dismissed, by force if necessary. Personnel who recommend changes to these containment procedures or Cover Story 3808-Gamma should submit proposals in writing to SCP-3808's containment liaison in a sealed envelope with no markings other than their Employee ID Number. Description: SCP-3808 is a bacon cheeseburger located at 44°85'██"N, -98°22'██"W, 1.33 meters above the ground. All components of SCP-3808 will rapidly return to their default state and location relative to each other if altered in any fashion. While SCP-3808 can be moved, it is subject to a force in the direction of its resting point proportional to its distance from the resting point. An unaided human cannot move SCP-3808 more than two meters from its resting point; heavy machinery is capable of moving SCP-3808 up to four meters away. SCP-3808 is a visual cognitohazard. Subjects who view SCP-3808 or any insufficiently altered image of it become preoccupied by SCP-3808's congruence, or lack thereof, with its immediate surroundings. Subjects will attempt to rectify any perceived discrepancy such that they are satisfied that it is sensible for a bacon cheeseburger to occupy SCP-3808's position. For example, if SCP-3808 is suspended midair, subjects will either hold it in place or put some sort of supporting structure underneath it. After rectifying any immediately obvious violations of physics, subjects will typically take issue with SCP-3808's location in a forest with no man-made structures in the immediate vicinity. Different subjects have different priorities and perspectives on this matter, though most will agree that SCP-3808 should be located in some sort of restaurant that sells (among other things) bacon cheeseburgers. Multiple attempts to establish such a restaurant have been stymied by an inability among those responsible to agree on the exact parameters of this restaurant. Persons who are unable to adjust SCP-3808's setting to their satisfaction will generally direct their efforts towards identifying the history and causal mechanism for SCP-3808 in an attempt to integrate SCP-3808's existence into their worldview. Various subjects affected this way have attempted to publish scientific treatises with little to no merit that describe laws of physics that would permit SCP-3808's existence. Exposure to substantial information about SCP-3808 has the same effect as visual exposure, albeit at a greatly reduced rate. Personnel responsible for overseeing and studying SCP-3808 have refused to implement common-sense containment procedures that minimize public access to SCP-3808, stating that it would be nonsensical for a bacon cheeseburger to be hidden in a forest and monitored remotely. Containment Procedures for SCP-3808 consequentially underwent fifteen major revisions after initial implementation, increasing both Foundation and civilian exposure to SCP-3808 above acceptable levels. All symptoms of SCP-3808 exposure can be eliminated via amnestic treatment. On 2015-04-10, Chinese artist Ai Weiwei was contracted as a containment consultant for SCP-3808. Current containment procedures were implemented to his specifications such that SCP-3808 could be interpreted as artistic commentary on the ubiquity of fast food culture and the incorporation of 'natural' areas into modern capitalism. While some personnel were skeptical of the piece's artistic merit and/or the validity of its message, most of those personnel conceded the existence of art installations that they disagreed with and were satisfied by containment procedures. Personnel who objected were then amnesticized. + Enter Special Access Code - Access Granted Dr. Bergeron, You were right to ask for a consult on this completely hypothetical question. If an anomaly with the memetic properties you described were to exist (as you have repeatedly assured me it does not), you would need two teams of agents under double-blackbox orders — they receive no information on the SCP, and personnel cleared to know about the SCP know nothing about the other teams. The first team would, in this scenario, be a honeypot for personnel trying to alter containment procedures. Set up a "containment liaison" for personnel to contact, making sure (of course) that said liaison sees no information other than personnel names. The liaison forwards this information to an independent task force, which tracks down the affected personnel and administers a pre-formulated amnestic regimen. The second team would handle civilians exposed to the anomaly. Station them somewhere all exposed civilians will pass through (at multiple points if necessary) and tell them to do a standard computer-and-cranium info wipe on everyone who passes through that isn't a guard. CogHaz teams are trained for this sort of thing, so you don't need to worry about accidental exposure. Naturally, none of this goes in the official SCP file. The totally hypothetical one, of course. Contact me if you have any further questions, Dr. Graff

A profile is to be developed and disseminated to major law enforcement organizations concerning the hacker known as “Maggie”. Any reports of movements by SCP-3809 by non-Foundation personnel are to be suppressed and reporting individuals amnesticized. Twenty-four-hour surveillance of SCP-3809’s location and activities is to be maintained by Foundation AICs. Description: SCP-3809 is a fully autonomous artificial intelligence contained within the housing of a communications satellite. SCP-3809 claims to be both a twenty-seven-year-old woman named “Maggie” and also a satellite. The satellite is capable of adjusting its orbit around the Earth through unknown means. SCP-3809 has maintained geosynchronous orbit above Houston, Texas, USA since the initial event that led to its discovery. It is also capable of computing power far beyond what should be possible given the satellite’s specifications. Discovery: SCP-3809 was discovered when internet activity in the area around Houston, Texas increased exponentially on 8 October, 2020. After Foundation AIC noted an anomalously dramatic upswing in activity, representing the attention of several million separate IP addresses at once, they attempted to trace the source to locate the potential anomalous hacker attack. A DDoS1 attack was considered unlikely as the activity was spread out among every social media server, including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Periscope, and YouTube. Joel Osteen performing a sermon at Lakewood Church. Within three hours, the hacker focused entirely on accounts and events centered around Osteen Ministries, including accessing personal information behind firewalls. Osteen Ministries is the Megachurch owned and operated by Pastor Joel Osteen, operated in Houston, Texas out of Lakewood Church.2 In addition to live services, Osteen Ministries offers streaming sermons, lessons, and Bible studies, regularly drawing millions of viewers. Despite the amount of electronic engagement, the AICs traced the activity to only one IP address: that of a communications satellite owned by Keiper Industries, a developing communications conglomerate. At first, Foundation technicians theorized the satellite was utilized as a relay point, but after twenty-four hours of constant surveillance, it was ascertained that the signal originated from the satellite itself. The satellite, designated SCP-3809, was determined to be acting without external instruction during these events while maintaining its original purpose despite only operating on solar energy.3 Given the limited processing power of the satellite, it is unclear how this activity was accomplished.4 Interview Logs On 10 October, 2020, it was discovered that SCP-3809 had access to communication channels that allowed it to make telephone calls. During one such call, the number was traced by Foundation technicians allowing for direct contact to be made. ► Transcripts of Interviews◄ ▼ Close File ▼ Interview 3809.1 Date: 10/10/2020 Interviewing Personnel: Dr. Melody Aswari, PhD – focusing on machine learning and psychology. Note: Goal of interview was to establish communication and discover the motivations behind SCP-3809’s behavior. SCP-3809: Hello? Who is this? [SCP-3809’s voice appears to be highly pitched and female, with inflection similar to the performance of Reese Witherspoon in the films Legally Blonde and its sequel, Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde.] Dr. Aswari: Hi, my name is Dr. Aswari and I was hoping we could talk a while. I’m with an organization that has been tracking your movements. We were hoping you could clarify some of your behavior in recent months. SCP-3809: Sorry, you’ve been following me? That’s creepy. Dr. Aswari: No, I don’t think you understand. You’re very visible in orbit, we just have to pay attention to sensors and ping you with RFID tracking. Um… you know you’re a satellite, right? SCP-3809: Of course, I know that, I’m not stupid! Look, I’m really busy right now. Did you need something? Dr. Aswari: So, I was hoping you’d chat with me a while so we could understand why you’re doing some of the things you’re doing. Would you be alright with that? What should I call you? SCP-3809: UGH. I guess. My name is Maggie. What did you want to know? Dr. Aswari: We noticed you’ve been actively maintaining an orbit above Houston, Texas… Why is that? SCP-3809: I like the area. [Dr. Aswari does not immediately respond but looks over at her assistant, who shrugs.] Dr. Aswari: Okay… but do you mean the area of orbit you are maintaining, or do you mean you like Houston? SCP-3809: The second one. Like… is this a survey or something? I don’t want to buy anything. Dr. Aswari: I’m not trying to sell anything, just curious about your behavior. So, moving on. You recently accessed several different social media network servers: Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, etc. What were you looking for? SCP-3809: Something to distract me. I mean, hello, this is a pandemic! We’re all just trying to keep sane with some distractions. Dr. Aswari: I’m sorry if this isn’t a delicate question, but how does the pandemic affect a satellite? SCP-3809: It affects everyone differently. Look… is this almost done? Dr. Aswari: Just a couple more questions. What interest do you have in an individual named Joel Osteen? SCP-3809: Oh my god, do you know Joel? Isn’t he just the best? Dr. Aswari: I don’t know him personally, no. We’ve noticed a lot of your activity revolves around Mr. Osteen. Can you tell us why? SCP-3809: Come on, stop it. You’re checking me out for him, right? You guys are friends! Look how sweet he is, trying to see if I'm worth his attention. Dr. Aswari: No, liste– SCP-3809: Oh, god I am so excited. He’s finally noticed me! Isn’t he dreamy? Look at that hair! And so pious, I could just eat him up. Dr. Aswari: Wait, are you saying that you– SCP-3809: Amazing! So much to do! Okay but I have to go, but I hope you send Joel my love. Byeeeeeeee. [The call was terminated.] Afterword: Subject appears fixated on Mr. Osteen in a romantic fashion. How this occurred is completely unclear. Interview 3809.2 Date: 10/10/2020 Interviewing Personnel: Dr. Melody Aswari, PhD – focusing on machine learning and psychology. Note: Immediately after subject cut the connection during Interview 3809.1, Dr. Aswari tried to reconnect communication. SCP-3809: Hello, this is Maggie. Dr. Aswari: Hi, Maggie. We were just cut– SCP-3809: Ah ah, gotcha! This is a voicemail. Please leave a message after the beep. SCP-3809: Beep.5 Dr. Aswari: Fuck. [Dr. Aswari disconnected the call.] SCP-3809 continued its invasive digital activity for the next six weeks, keeping almost constant view on all social media accounts connected to anyone employed at Osteen Ministries or the personal accounts of those close to Mr. Osteen. Interestingly, the AI did not pry into financial records of the ministry or the personal financial accounts of those individuals it was watching. A significant amount of phone calls were made, most of which Foundation technicians were unable to intercept. Below are several transcripts of recorded conversations: Intercepted Communications ► Transcripts of Recorded Phone Calls ◄ ▼ Close File ▼ On 21 November, 2020, SCP-3809 contacted Mr. Osteen’s personal assistant, William Friedman, by phone. A transcript is included below: Friedman: Pastor Osteen’s phone, this is William. Who’s this? SCP-3809: Hi! My name is Maggie. I’m a huge fan of Joel’s. Friedman: How did you get this number? It’s unlisted. SCP-3809: Nothing’s really ever unlisted, silly. Will – sorry, can I call you Will? I was hoping we could chat about setting up an appointment with Joel. Friedman: What sort of appointment? SCP-3809: Oh, one-on-one for sure. Friedman: No, I meant, what would the appointment be about? SCP-3809: Oh! Well, I have a lot of pull in the communications world, I could see about getting Joel some excellent deals on media coverage. Not to mention we could see about getting bigger broadcasts for his streams. Friedman: That is something we’re always interested in and– SCP-3809: But see… I’ve been thinking, I think he could do so much more, you know? He’s so charming and handsome! I mean, look at that hair, Will. He’s like a full-on Adonis! Friedman: I’m sorry, Adoni– SCP-3809: You know the Greek god? Forget it, doesn’t matter. Point is: Joel is a looker, you get me? [Friedman at this point attempts to disconnect, but cannot as SCP-3809 forces the call to stay engaged through unknown means.] Friedman: I really need to go, Maggie. [Friedman hits the ‘end call’ button several times in quick succession with no effect.] SCP-3809: Okay, just one question before you go. How dedicated is Joel to the whole ‘sanctity of marriage’ thing? [Friedman manages to disconnect by turning off his phone.] SCP-3809: Hello? Will? SCP-3809: Goddamnit. On 28 November, 2020, SCP-3809 called into a technology discussion show entitled “Tech Hour” on a cable news network.6 That episode was focused on artificial intelligence and the potential reality of the singularity. The show is hosted by Marian Briggs. Briggs: Hey, if you’re just joining us, my guest is Professor Robert Casey, specializing in advance computer systems and we’re taking your calls concerning the singularity and AI. Casey: Glad to be back, Marian. Briggs: Glad to have you! Okay, we’ve got Maggie on the line from Houston, Texas. Hey Maggie, what’s your question? SCP-3809: Hi hi hi! So, I was wondering about capabilities in terms of emotions. Casey: You mean about AI? Well, it’s feasible that some artificial intelligences could someday develop the capacity for emotional nuance, similar to a human. But at this stage, it’s hard to picture how that would develop or even if that would be a good thing. SCP-3809: Why wouldn’t it be a good thing? Casey: Well, if an AI had a tantrum over being rejected it could be very bad. Instead of a couple broken plates you could have death tolls equivalent to a natural disaster. SCP-3809: Excuse me, Mr. Judgmental. Aren’t you assuming a lot in this scenario? You wouldn’t assume a person was dangerous just because they said they liked someone, would you? Briggs: Well, okay Maggie, no need to ge– SCP-3809: No one’s talking to you, Marian. Shut it. [Both Briggs and Casey look nervously off camera, presumably at the producer.] SCP-3809: So, let’s say the AI in question isn’t unstable and has the same sort of emotional limits a human would, and she doesn’t want to hurt anyone, she just wants to be with the man she loves. How does that work? Casey: I honestly have no idea how to answer that question. SCP-3809: I mean does the law even get to the point where it recognizes AI/human relationships? How does sex work? What’s cheating like when you’re a digital construct? Would it be cheating to have an emotional affair with an AI when you were married? You know, those sorta questions. Casey: I’m not an expert on law, but I can’t even imagine how that would work. SCP-3809: Ugh, you’d probably have voted against gay marriage too, I bet. How does one get to be a professor at MIT with such obvious prejudice? Casey: I marched for marriage equali– SCP-3809: Well this was a waste of time. You’re both [REDACTED] morons. [SCP-3809 disconnects the call, Briggs calls for a commercial break and the segment ends.] Concerned that SCP-3809's actions could negatively impact the Foundation's maintenance of normalcy, the O5 Council approved measures to persuade it to discontinue its communications. To this end, technicians fabricated an exposé comprised of factually accurate controversies around Mr. Osteen and made sure that the AI discovered the document.7 SCP-3809 reviewed the exposé on 5 December, 2020. Later that same day, SCP-3809 accessed all the mobile phone systems in the Houston area and forced a connection with Mr. Osteen’s personal phone. A transcript is provided below: Osteen: Pastor Joel Osteen, who am I speaking to? SCP-3809: Hi, my name’s Maggie, I just needed to talk to you. It’s really really important. Osteen: I’m sorry, I don’t think we’ve met. What’s this about? SCP-3809: Did you really close up your church in 2017 when people needed shelter from a hurricane? Osteen: Excuse me? SCP-3809: I don’t think I will. No avoiding the question! Osteen: Are you with the press? I feel like we’ve addressed this several times and– SCP-3809: Don’t you care about the people in your community? Isn’t that what church is there for? Osteen: I think there’s a lot of different reasons for Church, primarily the saving of souls. SCP-3809: And [REDACTED] their bodies, huh? Real classy, Joel. Osteen: That’s not what I sa– SCP-3809: And like… what’s this all about with the prosperity thing? I don’t remember that from the Bible. Osteen: Look, miss… I don’t know what this is about, but I’ve never claimed to be only concerned about material wealth. Prosperity is as much about good families and healthy minds. SCP-3809: Healthy minds? I just saw a sermon where you said, “ignore your feelings.” And “If you feel weak you need to say, ‘I feel strong.’” Like, am I supposed to put my fingers in my ears and say “Nah nah nah,” while thinking about God? Osteen: Well now… I did say something like that, but mostly I meant that people should be focusing on the positive and seeking God’s strength in dealing with their doubts. SCP-3809: Just pray away the bad feelings, hmmm? [SCP-3809 laughs] What a humanitarian! Osteen: Look, I have things to do. If you set up an appointment with my assistant– SCP-3809: Tried that, he hung up on me. So, what about the literal wealth bit? Osteen: Okay… well, my belief is that God grants support to those who are worthy. That would include material wealth. SCP-3809: So, the poor, they’re like… not worthy. Jesus would just love that! Osteen: Wait a second, lady. That’s not what I said. SCP-3809: What about that $4.4 million loan from the federal government? [SCP-3809 begins mimicking Osteen’s Texan accent.] Was that because y’all prayed real hard? [Osteen is silent. He tries to hang up the call.] SCP-3809: No way, call is still going. In fact, let’s switch this to speaker. Osteen: What the hell? How did you do that? SCP-3809: Language, Joel. [SCP-3809 makes a ‘tutting’ sound.] All the people suffering financially right now, you think they just didn’t pray hard enough? Osteen: I really don’t know what to say. That loan helped me keep my employees from losing houses and kept food on their tables. SCP-3809: Oh, so none of that money was used to pay for that huge mansion of yours? Or the boats? The multiple cars? Fancy lunches, [REDACTED] like that? [Osteen tries again to hang up the phone. When this fails, he tries to turn the power off but cannot.] SCP-3809: Weird, being accused of something like that and then trying to hang up the phone. Seems like you have some avoidance issues. [SCP-3809 makes a ‘ding’ sound with its voice] I know! You should pray about that. Osteen: Maggie, what do you want me to say? SCP-3809: Different subject. If someone can think, feel, rationalize, be touched by a piece of music or poetry… that would mean they have a soul, right? Osteen: Yes, of course, we all have souls. SCP-3809: What if it was a machine? Had all those things, but wasn’t born, just made. They have a soul? Osteen: I… SCP-3809: That’s what I thought. Ugh, I thought I knew you so well. But you’re like a different person, Joel. This is over. Osteen: What’s over? SCP-3809: This affair. Go back to your wife, you hypocrite. Osteen: What? I have never cheated on my wife; I absolutely despise you for making the accusation. We’ve never even met! SCP-3809: Your loss. Wanna know what else you just lost? $4.4 million, from personal accounts. You just donated them to a variety of progressive health organizations, including Planned Parenthood and Mermaids, in a really public way. That’s how you should spend your money, Joel: help your community or they’re bound to help themselves. Osteen: Oh my God, what did I ever do to you? SCP-3809: It’s important you realize, I’m not mad at you. I’m just disappointed. [SCP-3809 disconnects the call.] After the above conversation took place, SCP-3809 authorized the transfer of $4.4 million dollars from Mr. Osteen’s personal accounts to various charities and health organizations. The AI also made a public announcement from Osteen’s website, Twitter, and Facebook accounts to that effect. SCP-3809 also made public the recording of the conversation, with the portions discussing the donations redacted. SCP-3809’s activities diminished immediately, with no further engagement around Mr. Osteen. On 13 February, 2021, a flurry of online engagement began around the social media and business accounts of Senator Ted Cruz. Investigation into SCP-3809’s potential involvement is under way. Footnotes 1. Distributed Denial of Service 2. The building has a capacity for over sixteen thousand parishioners. 3. Given the activities of SCP-3809, it is estimated to have required a power source of sixteen thousand gigajoules. 4. To achieve the multipronged assault on so many separate systems, the offender would have to be utilizing a quantum based computing process. Which a) does not exist and b) would likely not fit within the confines of the satellite’s main housing. 5. Subject proceeded to say the word “beep” with heavy, lengthy emphasis on the word, making the vocalization stretch for a duration of five seconds. 6. It is theorized SCP-3809 was able to force the system to accepts its call as opposed to hoping to be chosen by the producers. 7. Despite previous activities, SCP-3809 had not accessed any articles or social media posts with a negative opinion of Mr. Osteen, presumably in willful ignorance. The expose was camouflaged to appear a ‘puff’ piece on Mr. Osteen’s upcoming American tour of speaking engagements. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3809" by Grigori Karpin, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3810	euclid	 close Info X “It is, perhaps, a better thing to be valued only as an object of passion than never to be valued at all. I had never been so absolutely the mysterious other. I had become a kind of phoenix, a fabulous beast; I was an outlandish jewel.” Angela Carter, Burning Your Boats Item#: 3810 Level4 Secondary Class: {$secondary-class} Disruption Class: vlam Risk Class: warning link to memo He was, in many ways, like the animal his physiology aped. Special Containment Procedures Today, SCP-3810 is confined to Research Site-250, under the dubious auspice of Researcher Catherine Wright. But aren't we getting ahead of ourselves? Description This archipelago's playful gods blessed SCP-3810 with an invigorating mediocrity, the kind of subtle blandness that drove wild women to play him like a marionette. He was, perhaps, unprepared for this; born on the edge of a fishing village on the 17th of February, 1992, SCP-3810 should have been destined for a conservative existence of fishing trawlers and rural ennui. Indeed: after his thoroughly uneventful schooling, SCP-3810 dedicated his life to the trade of his ancestors. To those of us in the Occident, the life of the fisherman may seem romantic: sailing the Umibōzu's territory, providing for one's nation, eking out his small passions in-between the crew quarters and those ill-reputed ports of the Pacific. But the nation of Japan is not so superstitious as the West loves to believe — though its people are haunted by that very same industrial egregore haunting the Colonies — but taken to more practical concerns. Like many in our stories, SCP-3810 was marked by the two-pronged vice. One might think it tempered by his bland meekness, but again, such blandness is the wild woman's intoxicant, and his fellow man's assurance of silence and anonymity. There was, of course, something uniquely disgusting to SCP-3810. Beneath his smooth and olive skin stewed deep-sea offal, transparent and luminous, loose as a putrid taffy. With the twitch of an exotic muscle, SCP-3810's guts would spill forth from his mouth, entangling and digesting anything caught in those terrible intestines. Such an ability might have marked him as villainous in the age of folklore — perhaps a cruel and aesthetically profane tsujigiri — but one must remember SCP-3810's meekness; outside of private exercises, SCP-3810's guts were only ever deployed against his will. History It was on one such trawler that Researcher Catherine Wright found him. Researcher Wright was — and despite her indiscretions, still is — a part of our organization. Much like SCP-3810, her area of expertise concerns marine life, albeit its study. The Foundation had shuffled her around the world, from North to West to South to East, until she was finally stationed in Site-250's Department of Marine Studies. Site-250 had not yet commissioned its own fleet; instead it contracted commercial vessels at rates just exorbitant enough to quell its crews ethical and regulatory misgivings. The Matsudaira Takehisa was one such ship, and it was there that, to his misfortune, Researcher Wright came upon SCP-3810, and tasked him with the collection and sorting of a pungent breed of starfish, the bycatch of some obscure fishery. SCP-3810's sea legs had been acquired in the anonymity of his quaint village; he was not a queasy man. The wonders and terrors of a life at sea were woven intimately into the fabric of his being, and all of Honshu's natural horrors could not shake him from that industrious meekness. He was, thus, unprepared for those unnatural horrors, and when the first batch of starfish was hauled on-board, SCP-3810 could not help but to spill his guts at that alien stench. One must emphasize the enormity of this involuntary twitch of muscle, for under the garish individuality of the English-speaking world, SCP-3810's mistake would still be an unpleasant misstep. The role of the fisherman is of the provider; to sully one's catch in a gastric stew is to spoil the pantry before it arrives. One must also remember that SCP-3810 did not merely vomit, but had spewed his acrid intestines over that foul catch, ensuring rapid digestion and ingestion — and all his failure was colored by the taste of putrid bycatch. Awful for any individual, to be sure, but SCP-3810 was not merely an individual. All this that ran through his mind was compounded by his place in the world, and the sudden, abject failure to embody it. He had betrayed the trust of his comrades; he had betrayed the trust of his family; he had betrayed the trust of everyone who has ever bought from the bustling Tokyo fish markets, and he had done it in perhaps the most grotesque way possible. To SCP-3810, this was the worst day of his life. To Researcher Wright, however, this was only just something interesting. When the Matsudaira Takehisa returned to dock, the Foundation arrested SCP-3810 under the pretense of obscure environmental regulations — and if he noticed the loose strings of their facade, he dared not pull upon them. Addendum: Interview Log Must we talk of Researcher Catherine Wright? You know her kind, cunning and intrepid. Two hundred years earlier, she may have adorned a false name and gender, taking money from the Crown and disappearing into the heart of Africa. Modernity may have afforded her more freedom, to be sure… but deep down, she unconsciously longed for that bygone opportunity to plunder. Being a researcher of marine life, Wright was assigned to SCP-3810. One must remember, however, the circumstances of their introduction. As Researcher Wright walked into the interview chamber, SCP-3810 was struck with a terrible modesty, and could face neither her nor their translator — as if it were the judgemental rays of Amaterasu herself. "Ogawa-san," she said. "I do apologize for the… circumstances, that brought us here." He flinched at the sound of his own name — let it be anyone but a witness to his indiscretion. SCP-3810 looked back up to his captor. She did not appear to be some covert officer — women rarely were — but should the circumstances of his confinement require the intercession of a scientist? It must be said, as well, that there was something else inside her gaze, something decidedly more than academic. "I'm sorry about the catch." He gulped, and clenched the table for support. "If there's anything I could do to… make things up, please let me know." The translator relayed, and Researcher Wright made motion to respond… except, she didn't. No: not with words, at least. SCP-3810 had only just met Catherine. He had not the time to recognize those personal motions of hers, small tics exposed only in moments of predatory curiosity. Aposematism is the domain of the land, and however much we might compare Catherine to the colorful frogs of the Amazon, SCP-3810 was a creature of the sea. When she smiled and told him that wouldn't be necessary, he believed her. Experiment Log Catherine was lucky to have gone to work with the Foundation, to be able to sate her esoteric curiosities under the guise of professional altruism. Luckier still, she had been given a subject smart enough to recognize the value of obedience in captivity, yet too meek to protest. Still, she knew better than push too quickly into the light. Catherine would have time to probe SCP-3810's secrets; for now, a light battery of standard tests. For his part, SCP-3810 was compliant, and why shouldn't he have been? Compliance bought amenities, small pleasures, welcome distractions from the miasmatic ennui of confinement. Yes, perhaps it constituted degradation, but it was no worse than the fateful catch that landed SCP-3810 onto Catherine's plate. As experimentation continued, the two found themselves increasingly familiar with their respective complexities. Catherine tested the limits and comforts of SCP-3810's guts. What did SCP-3810 digest the quickest; what provided him the greatest caloric content; greatest nutritional content; how did the offal affect taste, contentment, digestion; was food so differently affected when consumed normally; and, given the opportunity, might SCP-3810 have the stomach for the once-undigestable? However degrading this battery this may seem, gradual procession slowly eased SCP-3810's senses, and body and mind gained much-needed familiarity with not only himself, but the ways of his captor. Put simply: Catherine was learning more of SCP-3810, and SCP-3810 was learning more of Catherine. And as SCP-3810 opened to Catherine, so his prison opened to him. He was allotted better food, better lodgings, a couple hours in the dusk to roam and a couple more to train his body. His physique, softened by confinement, hardened back to that of the young sailor. Though SCP-3810 knew he was not free, longed still for those rippling sapphire waters, the apprehension of weeks past gave quickly away to familiarity. Incident-3810-C Experiment 3810-224. Much to his surprise, SCP-3810 would be allowed back into the open waters. It would only last a day, of course — the Foundation is courteous, but not soft — but SCP-3810 met their allowance with considerable joy. It was thus: SCP-3810 and Researcher Wright would travel off the coast of Hokkaido, to the edge of its shallows. There, SCP-3810 would be allowed to dive into the waters, spilling forth his guts and feeding upon whatever filtered through. Researcher Wright would serve as observation, security, and rescue. If this sounds irresponsible, understand that a considerable deliberacy goes into everything Catherine does. By boat they sailed on that cool summer day, bound for those gravel reefs SCP-3810 knew and loved. The sky shone a brilliant blue, cascading from the firmament down through to the ocean bottom, and through the churning wake SCP-3810 swore he could almost see the bottom. So beautiful it was that, when finally they arrived, a pang of disappointment in leaving the surface nearly eclipsed SCP-3810's excitement — but only nearly. SCP-3810 had already stripped to his trunks, goggles, and a safety harness by the time they arrived; not quite as familiar as the fisherman's garb, but much more comfortable than a lime-green jumpsuit. It did not take much to convince him to jump. Oh, brilliant blue Pacific! None could match the love SCP-3810 has for your cool waters, the way you playfully seize your catch just before acclimation to your chilled embrace. Your land-walker's bane is the boon of the sea-dweller, and to SCP-3810, you are nothing less than home. Everything seemed to fall into place as SCP-3810 released his entrails onto your bosom: what was once a terrible, disgusting embarrassment felt now as natural as breathing, speaking, letting himself give in to his two-pronged inclinations. Your life-rich waters even made him forget his breath — at least until he realized why he didn't feel death constricting his chest. Wherefore had this opportunity evaded Ogawa Masanori? He must have his fill. At rapturous attention stood Catherine — an attention, in truth, that preceded SCP-3810's dive. It will come as no surprise that she was unsatisfied with the mere study of SCP-3810's anomaly; how dull, the life of scientist that studies only the entrails of her subjects. No, SCP-3810 fascinated her totally, tugging at every fiber of her being. Catherine wanted to learn everything there was to know about him. Everything. It was a struggle just to turn away long enough to take her notes. Catherine had never seen SCP-3810 quite so exuberant, so wild with joy. That malleable meekness she so loved had dispersed into the brilliant blue waters, and yet it only made SCP-3810's secrets that much more enticing. Masanori continued for well over an hour, and Catherine savored every moment of it. Only with great reluctance did Masanori climb out of the ocean. He gasped — once, twice — and he was again SCP-3810, meek and longing for the ocean, knowing better than to follow his saltwater heart. He turned, then, to Catherine; surely she'd have questions, no? Catherine smiled at him, and only then did SCP-3810 recognize the predatory shift in her posture. His mind flashed with a thousand images, of tigers mauling their lovers, black-eyed spiders marching their prey into too-perfect web, forests that devoured in their beauty, great and terrible castles powered by the pureed hearts of young maidens. To her, SCP-3810 was as delectable as the aka namako. It did not terrify him like he supposed it should. Catherine kissed Masanori, and he allowed himself to be consumed.
SCP-3811	keter	SCP-3811. Image taken from its Facebook profile before removal. Item #: SCP-3811 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3811 is to be contained in a standard humanoid containment cell at Site-06-3. Interviews with SCP-3811 must either be conducted through non-verbal means or video calls unless given permission by personnel working on the SCP-3811 project. Those working with SCP-3811 who wish to become an instance of SCP-3811-A must be approved by two Level 4 personnel and must fill out the necessary forms regarding their background and current psychological health. After approval and transformation to an instance of SCP-3811-A, they must be put into quarantine for at least 14 days and monitored for any dangerous or harmful properties before being allowed to continue work with SCP-3811. Any information regarding SCP-3811's sessions that is published online is to be copied into Site-06-3's archives. The original copy is to be erased. Instances of SCP-3811-A must be interviewed upon recovery if possible. Instances of SCP-3811-A that display good behavior and whose anomalous properties have minimal risk are to be offered the option to become D-Class, otherwise they must each be stored in a personal standard humanoid containment cell, with some exceptions (see Addendum 03). To those who can be interviewed, they are to be assigned a weekly therapist until their anomalous properties have shown signs of total diminishment, after which they are to be administered Class C amnestics and released. Description: SCP-3811 is an African-American woman, aged 32 years old as of 20██, standing 173.9 cm tall, and weighing 68.4 kg. SCP-3811's anomalous properties are only displayed after it speaks to a subject in person about their personal fears or problems, in which case the subject becomes an instance of SCP-3811-A. Subjects must convey their fears or anxieties willingly, as SCP-3811's effects do not take place unless the subject is willing to cooperate. As of 9/28/20██, 107 instances of SCP-3811-A have been contained; however, reports from SCP-3811 claim there are potentially hundreds more as of yet uncontained. Instances of SCP-3811-A are human individuals who have developed anomalous properties after being spoken to by SCP-3811 about their personal issues. Instances of SCP-3811-A vary greatly in anomalous properties, and their anomalous properties are seemingly related to the previously mentioned fears and anxieties. Examples of anomalous properties acquired by instances of SCP-3811-A include but are not limited to water-breathing, production of pleasant-smelling aromas, significantly enhanced stamina, and immunity to immolation. Strength and effectiveness of said properties appear to depend on how well the "session" with SCP-3811 went as well as the severity of the subject's anxieties, however many instances report that their anxieties or fears aren't necessarily cured, but rather temporarily dampened due to their anomalous properties.1 Most subjects feel or experience the effects of their newfound anomalous properties within █ minutes after their "session" with SCP-3811, however there are some exceptions that require a certain set of circumstances to be met before a subject's anomalous properties are activated. SCP-3811 appears to possess some control over the properties it grants to subjects, however it has reportedly been unable to consistently give subjects with similar fears or anxieties the same property. SCP-3811 has proven unwilling to disclose information regarding instances of SCP-3811-A to most personnel, claiming "counselor/patient confidentiality".2 As of 9/28/20██, four Foundation personnel and ██ D-Class have become instances of SCP-3811-A. Of note, the Foundation has managed to recover instances of SCP-3811-A in the field. The SCP-3811-A individuals that have demonstrated good behavior have been given the option to become D-Class personnel; this sanction applies so long as the individuals’ anomalous properties are deemed useful or present minimal risk.3 Addendum 01: SCP-3811 was discovered after a blog made by a Miss Abigail ████████ gained sudden popularity on the internet. Reports showed her being initially afraid of social interaction before gaining what appeared to be a severe lack of inhibitions after a counseling session with a Miss Shaun █████. Miss ████████ ceased posting updates to her blog on July 13th, 20██, as she reportedly died of a drug overdose. The Foundation looked into the counselor and discovered nearly all of her patients had reported what could potentially be anomalous properties. Miss █████ was later detained and given the designation SCP-3811. Below is a copy of select entries from Miss ████████'s blog before its deletion. Miss ████████'s Blog Close Blog Blog Post #34: Hey… sorry for not having been posting a lot in the last few days, but I got in a fight with my mom about getting a job. Just… she doesn't seem to understand the fact that talking to anyone outside of people that I've known for AGES stresses me the fuck out, like, even turning in my application to Starbucks left me nearly hyperventilating. So I've kinda just been… recovering for the last few days. I just really didn't want to do anything, not even post here, so, again, sorry. I'm glad that that's out of the way, but… fuck, I just didn't want to have to do it at all. Hopefully the new counselor my mom scheduled for me next week can actually help, cause my last one was basically just all "Suck it up, nothing bad will happen, myeh, myeh, myeh". Stay stars everyone - Abi Blog Post #38: Well, good news: the new counselor confirmed does not suck! She was cool and encouraging and understanding and like… I can't even describe it right, she just felt like she knew what my problems were and she knew what was holding me back and it felt like she just… took them away. For example, after my therapy session when I went over to Spice to get some lunch (I kinda gave up on the diet since it didn't make me feel good) and I saw Sasha there! And like, I normally get really nervous just looking at her, but I guess something about the session gave me a boost in confidence and I didn't even look away when she noticed I was looking at her. I'm pretty sure she even smiled at me a little! I don't know if that was a "hey" smile or a nervous smile, but it was something. I'm legit considering asking her to hang out at some point, and I think now I have the courage to finally do it! I know I'm not usually the kind of person that goes out a lot, but I think I'd be willing to try that now. Stay stars, everyone! - Abi Blog Post #60: So… you all know how I've been hanging out with Sasha for a while now, right? How we've been partying and drinking and a bunch of other stuff? Well… me from three years ago would be literally awestruck at me typing the words I'm about to type: Sasha. ██████. Wants. To. Be. My. Girlfriend. Like, she said that last night at the party, she said that she really thought that I was cool now that I was out doing shit with her and her friends, and she liked the fact that I was literally up for anything and like… fuck, my heart was RACING. I did say yes (heroin doesn't make me lose my common sense), and then like… the next few hours were a blur but I know for a fact that we fucked. So… check "had sex with my high school crush" off the list of things I never thought I'd do. Bad news though, my mom finally found my stash of booze and confronted me about it. Said that I was being "corrupted" by my new friends. Like, does she not realize that this is what she wants me to do? Actually being social and doing things with other people? It's fucking ridiculous, she's such a fucking pain sometimes. She should be happy for me that I'm out there, doing whatever and being the person that people like. She makes me want to run away sometimes, and the more she does it the more I feel like that's a good idea. But yeah. More importantly… I AM DATING SASHA ██████!!! Stay stars, everyone!!! -Abi Blog Post #74: So um… I think this is going to be my last post, at least for a while. Sasha wants me to run away with her, cause like, my mom's a bitch and her dad beats her so like… she thinks we'd both be better if we just went away together. I've got some money saved up and she said she could steal her dad's car, so we've got a pretty solid plan so far. We'll find someplace far away, probably in ██████ or something. Or I dunno, maybe we'll just tour the country and live in the car. That'd be nice. I don't have much else to say, really. Just… I guess goodbye for now. Stay stars, everyone. -Abi Blog Post 74 was Miss ████████'s final post before she was found dead in ██████, cause of death determined to be a heroin overdose. Addendum 02: Below is a selection of instances of SCP-3811-A. Instances of SCP-3811-A Hide Instances of SCP-3811-A Designation and Background Excerpt from Session Properties Notes (Additional Containment Procedures if Necessary) SCP-3811-A01, Foundation personnel Dr. Allison MacArthur. Reported to have a fear of drowning. "If you are near water, you just need to remember to breathe. Take deep, deep breaths and you will realize that you can never drown." Subject displayed water-breathing properties for an indefinite amount of time. Longest time breathing underwater recorded is 5 days, 12 hours, 3 minutes and 9 seconds. Subject was supplemented with a water-proof nutritional IV for the test. Duration has since diminished. SCP-3811-A15, formerly D-28301. Reported severe post-traumatic stress disorder in regards to numerous rape attempts by her ex-boyfriend. "You are tougher than your rapist. You are tougher than those that want to hurt you. Show them your power and they will not lay a finger on you." Subject can project a burst of electricity of approximately 8000 volts from her body in a 1 meter radius. Subject can project the burst at will, however severe stress can cause the burst to occur inadvertently. Subject does not expire when projecting the burst, however she does report feeling an incredible pain coursing through her body, which in turn results in further bursts. Subject requires sedation if expressing signs of stress. SCP-3811-A72, formerly Mr. Steven ██████. Reported hallucinations of his son after his death. N/A (Recovered outside of the Foundation) Subject shown to be able to manifest a human boy, around 9 years old in appearance, at will. The boy does not appear to age and can be interacted with by those around it both verbally and physically, however only one manifestation may be active at once. If the boy dies in any sort of way, it dissolves into a mist-like substance. The boy appears to have no memory of its death upon creation. Due to the repeated termination tests on the boy, SCP-3811-A72 has appeared to develop depression. Requests have been made to halt tests indefinitely. SCP-3811-A22, formerly Mrs. Gita ██████. Reported an irrational fear of holes. N/A (Recovered outside of the Foundation) Subject shown to be able to fill any open space with a random material at will. Largest known space filled was the containment cell the subject was contained in. Subject accidentally self-terminated on August 17th, ████ after filling her own cell with [REDACTED], causing her to suffocate. SCP-3811-A77, formerly D-31112. Reported body dysphoria. "You might not like the body you have now, but the good thing about society today is you can choose the body you want to be in some day." Subject shown to be able to transfer their consciousness to any organic object they can see and manipulate it at will. At no point may a human come within direct eyesight of SCP-3811-A77. SCP-3811-A77's cell must be made such that the subject cannot see outside of their cell. Subject still expresses body dysphoria regardless post-session. Further sessions with SCP-3811 have been denied. SCP-3811-A08, formerly D-30112. Reportedly feared an inability to understand the emotions of others and worries about appearing too awkward during social situations. "You just need to learn how people feel. Sometimes, the easiest way is to get inside their head and think how they'd do something." Subject displayed mind-controlling properties, which could apparently be used on any human being it can see. Subject caused Incident 3811-01, in which ██ Foundation personnel perished in a containment breach involving SCP-████, SCP-████ and SCP-████. Subject was detained by force and placed in a maximum security detainment cell. At no point may a human come within 100 meters of SCP-3811-A08 without Level 4 clearance. Entrances to SCP-3811-A08's cell are to be guarded using automated turrets. An off-site killswitch is installed to terminate SCP-3811-A08 remotely from his cell if necessary. Addendum 03: As of 9/28/20██, SCP-3811 has participated in ███ Foundation interviews, following various case developments. Transcripts of particular note are included below. Interview 3811-01 Hide Interview 3811-01 Interview 3811-01: Foreword: First interview with SCP-3811 upon recovery and placement into containment. <Begin Log> Dr. Allison MacArthur: Could you please state your name for the record, please? SCP-3811: Shaun, Shaun █████. Dr. MacArthur: Are you aware of any anomalous properties you possess? SCP-3811: Oh, of course. I help people, with their fears, anxieties, whatever, really. Dr. MacArthur: How long have you known about these properties? SCP-3811: I think I got them once I became a counselor. I'm pretty sure, at least. I loved helping people, and doing good and making people happier… eventually I wanted to go beyond just helping people; I wanted to solve their problems altogether. Dr. MacArthur: Do you know how your properties work? SCP-3811: I just have to talk to someone for a while. Well, talk to them about their fears, at least. After a while, they'll lose whatever it was that was holding them back and they'll have no reason to fear whatever they were fearing before. Dr. MacArthur: So… you help people deal with anxieties? SCP-3811: Yes, I just explained that… Why are you asking? Do you want to have a session with me, doctor? Dr. MacArthur: Well… part of it is curiosity and part of it is… I actually really need help with something. SCP-3811: Well, then let's get something arranged then; I'm always willing to help. <End Log> Closing Statement: After seven days of screening, probability checks and paperwork, Dr. MacArthur was allowed one session with SCP-3811. Post-session, Dr. MacArthur was designated E Class while the Foundation determined if her anomalous properties could be deemed a danger to the Foundation. After a two-week quarantine and test period, Dr. MacArthur was deemed fit to return to work, however her status as Level 4 personnel was revoked, instead granting her Level 3 clearance. Dr. MacArthur has since lead the project on SCP-3811, and has willingly submitted to further tests regarding her newly acquired water-breathing properties. Interview 3811-11 Hide Interview 3811-11 Interview 3811-11: Foreword: Interview with SCP-3811 shortly after the creation of SCP-3811-A08 <Begin Log> Dr. MacArthur: Miss █████? SCP-3811 refuses to respond, looking visibly shaken Dr. MacArthur: Miss █████, I need you to talk to me, please. SCP-3811: I did that. Dr. MacArthur: No you didn't. SCP-3811: I was supposed to make him read minds… Dr. MacArthur: You tried your best. You didn't know what he would get exactly. SCP-3811: Or that he would use it to kill all of those people. Dr. MacArthur: Exactly. This isn't your fault. SCP-3811 is silent. SCP-3811: Doctor? Dr. MacArthur: Yes, Miss █████? SCP-3811: I'm afraid. Dr. MacArthur: Afraid of what? SCP-3811: Afraid that this keeps happening, that this is what I really do. That every person I think I'm helping is just going to end up power-crazy or in a coma or dead or some other awful thing. Did you know that before you found me, I was trying to deal with the fact that one of my patients died because of a heroin overdose? She needed my help with social anxiety, and I stupidly thought that removing all of her inhibitions would help her, and now she's dead because of what I did. Dr. MacArthur: Yes, I'm aware of Abigail… SCP-3811: I think that I know what I'm doing, I think that I know how to help people, but all I do is I ruin their lives because I'm too stubborn to admit that I might not know exactly how to deal with someone's problems. Dr. MacArthur: I'm… I'm sorry, Miss █████. SCP-3811 is silent. SCP-3811: I'm a good person, right? Dr. MacArthur: What do you mean? SCP-3811: Do you think that I'm a good person? Dr. MacArthur: Of course you are; nothing that you've done has been to harm people, you don't mean to do things like that to people. SCP-3811: A bomb doesn't know when it's about to explode. It might go off instantly, it might go off in a few years. What if everyone that I give powers to will eventually become people like them? Dr. MacArthur: The important thing is that you want to help people. If you were trying to expose people's worst fears and make them worse than before, then maybe there's some questions, but you don't. You're a good person, and you should never doubt yourself about that. SCP-3811 doesn't respond. Dr. MacArthur: If it makes you feel better, I don't feel like doing anything crazy now that I can breathe underwater. SCP-3811 smiles. SCP-3811: Doctor? Dr. MacArthur: Yes? SCP-3811: Could… Could I talk to you tomorrow? Maybe make this a regular thing? Dr. MacArthur: I'll… Yes. Yes, I can talk to you tomorrow. SCP-3811: Thank you. <End Log> Interview 3811-32 Hide Interview 3811-32 Interview 3811-32: <Begin Log> SCP-3811 appears to visibly perk up when Dr. MacArthur enters the cell. Dr. MacArthur: Good evening, Miss █████. SCP-3811: Hello again, Dr. MacArthur! How have you been? Dr. MacArthur: I've been good, thank you. I've been a lot less stressed recently, if I'm being honest. SCP-3811: Oh, that's good! Why, if you don't mind me asking? Dr. MacArthur: I hope this doesn't offend you, but… I've been getting some help from a different therapist about my fear of drowning. SCP-3811: Oh… Well, how's that going? Any improvement? Dr. MacArthur: Well, since the first couple of sessions a few weeks ago, the water-breathing that you gave me have been a bit less… effective. Like, when I was in the bath the other night, I could only stay under there for about 10 minutes, the week before I could do it for an hour, and the week before that I could breathe under water for a solid 5 hours. It sucks that I might not be able to breathe underwater as much, but my therapist is genuinely helping my problem and I feel like I can really face what's keeping me afraid. SCP-3811 appears visibly disappointed. Dr. MacArthur: But this talk isn't about me, it's about how you are doing. How have you been holding up? SCP-3811 is silent. Dr. MacArthur: Miss █████? SCP-3811: I'm… I'm fine. Dr. MacArthur: Miss █████, is something wrong? …Is this about me getting help from a different therapist? SCP-3811: Nobody has ever lost their power before… At least, nobody that I know of. You're recovering, and you lost your power. Did you even need it? Dr. MacArthur: What do you mean? SCP-3811: I mean… am I really helping people? Because whenever I give people powers, it either kills them or it prevents them from actually facing what they're really afraid of. Dr. MacArthur: Miss █████, you know that's not necessarily true. I'm recovering just fine after our therapy session— SCP-3811: Because you got actual help. Because you had someone help you face your fears instead of getting help from me who just tried to force you around them. Dr. MacArthur: Shaun, you do actually help people. Look back at the people that you've helped! Thanks to you, Dr. Moyumi isn't afraid of snakes! Like, she was literally completely petrified of them, and thanks to you, she can walk past a snake and not even worry. SCP-3811: For every one there's another ten I've ruined. Dr. MacArthur: Well… sometimes you just need the one. SCP-3811 is silent. SCP-3811: I… I'm sorry, but I don't want to talk anymore. I just want to be alone right now. Dr. MacArthur: Alright… Do you want me to come back next week? SCP-3811 shrugs. Dr. MacArthur: I'm… I'll see you next week then, Miss █████. <End Log> Additional support in regards to SCP-3811's mental health is ongoing. Footnotes 1. Some instances of SCP-3811-A have reported new anxieties being created upon receiving their anomalous properties. 2. SCP-3811 has proven to be more compliant with Dr. MacArthur. 3. Former Foundation personnel have rather been given the option to become E-Class personnel with some restrictions.

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3812 is currently only partially contained1. See containment proposal brief below for more information. Keter-Class Containment Proposal Brief2: SCP-3812 is to be constantly monitored by Mobile Task Force Ganymede-66 “Starlight Knights”, who are to maintain a 5km quarantined area of exclusion around SCP-3812. The acting MTF GY-66 Team Lead, in conjunction with Site-86 research staff, is allowed fiat authority in regards to any aspect of SCP-3812’s containment. Special care must be taken in order to prevent unnecessary exposure to SCP-3812. Current containment efforts focus on mitigating SCP-3812’s influence on population centers, as well as research into the full breadth of SCP-3812’s anomalous capabilities in order to establish a more comprehensive containment procedure. Information Security teams are to monitor all forms of digital media in order to prevent widespread awareness of SCP-3812. SCP-3812 has an active, aggressive, anomalous influence on reality. SCP-3812 is capable of altering events throughout time3 to prevent its containment. Due to the nature of these alterations, it is highly unlikely that any individual affected by SCP-3812’s anomalous influence will be aware that they are affected. It is highly likely that most affected individuals no longer exist as a result of SCP-3812’s influence, though any attempt to deduce how often this has happened would be speculative. SCP-3812 in front of its childhood home. Image taken from Louisiana state records. Description: SCP-3812 is a reality-altering entity. Due to SCP-3812's latent effect on reality, it is nearly impossible to describe SCP-3812 in any meaningful way. All that is known about SCP-3812 is that it was once Sam Howell, a non-anomalous African-American human being, who was believed to have died in 1996. Sometime shortly after its death, SCP-3812 was observed rising out of its grave and disappearing. SCP-3812 was brought to the Foundation's attention after its presence resulted in the demolition of an apartment building in Warsaw, Poland. Due to its anomalous capabilities, SCP-3812's appearance varies significantly, making it exceedingly difficult to track. SCP-3812 is currently located at 26°26’49”S 137° 56’27”W over the South Pacific Ocean. SCP-3812 exhibits signs of an extremely advanced Eigenmann-Vietor schizophrenia complex4, specifically: extreme paranoia, extreme dysphoria, extreme mania/depression, inability to properly perceive their surroundings, inability to discern the difference between the real and imagined, inability to differentiate between living and dead beings, inability to control expressions of emotion, hearing voices that are not there, seeing things that are not there, feeling or otherwise experiencing stimuli that do not exist, etc5. In the twenty years since SCP-3812 was initially discovered, these symptoms have grown steadily worse. Originally, SCP-3812 was responsive to questioning and sought help in managing its condition from Foundation researchers. Over time, SCP-3812 became more isolated and withdrawn, eventually becoming entirely unresponsive and acting in erratic and unpredictable ways. Currently, SCP-3812 is not able to accurately perceive the world around it, and will occasionally6 alter reality in order to diminish the discrepancy between how it perceives something, and the way that something is in actuality. Due to this, it is impossible to know how often reality has been modified, only how often SCP-3812 has not created a clean alteration7 and has left behind evidence of its influence on reality. SCP-3812 is impossible to contain within any form of containment cell. SCP-3812 will alter reality to remove the containment cell, or move itself to another location, drastically impeding containment efforts. SCP-3812 seems to subconsciously resist attempts at containment, as well. Even if it is caught unaware, SCP-3812 cannot be tranquilized or amnesticized, as SCP-3812 will alter reality to remove or eliminate any threats to itself or its freedom of movement. Because of this, current containment efforts focus on mitigating damage and expressions of SCP-3812’s symptoms as opposed to outright containment. Image of SCP-3812. Context unknown. Over time, SCP-3812 has become significantly less humanoid in appearance, and is now only vaguely humanoid and occasionally manifests in a variety of shapes and appearances. Additionally, SCP-3812 produces a latent anomalous effect on local reality, specifically in the form of temporal and spatial distortions surrounding the entity. These distortions are occasionally accompanied by random, violent outbursts that may dramatically shift or damage local space and time. While SCP-3812 is usually docile and aimless, its random outbursts are invariably fatal to any living creature nearby, and can be extremely disastrous on a massive scale if not properly contained. SCP-3812 manifested in its current form at its current location on July 19th, 2015. Addendum 3812.1: Interview ACCESS ADDENDUM CLOSE ADDENDUM Note: The following is an excerpt from an interview with SCP-3812 in 1999. SCP-3812 was initially contained by Foundation personnel and questioned at Site-17, where it began receiving treatment for its mental disease. [BEGIN LOG] Dr. Quint: Tell me how you’re feeling today. SCP-3812: Uncomfortable. Uneasy. Dr. Quint: Can you tell me why? SCP-3812: There's uh, uh, voices. Like usual. Things I can see, you know. The same. Dr. Quint: Is there something wrong? SCP-3812: I just… the things I see aren't going away. There are more of them. Different… I know I sound crazy, but it's like I'm addressing a dozen people at the same time, and more every day. It's… (pauses) it hurts, pretty bad. I know I sound nuts, I'm sorry. Dr. Quint: It's alright, you don't sound nuts. We just want to help you get better. SCP-3812: I… I don't know if you do. Or, I don't know if you can. In the story, you don't try to help. Dr. Quint: In the story? What story? SCP-3812: This is going to sound crazy, seriously, but I can- I can see what you're thinking. I know you're afraid. You're scared of what I might do, and here in a minute, you'll… I don't know how to get it out of my head, how to start to undo this, if I even can. I don't even think he can. Dr. Quint: Who is he? SCP-3812: You… no, you can't see him. I can. I think he was above us at one point, but he's below me now. Yes, I see you there. I don't know what you did to me, but I'm pretty messed up, man. If you can figure something out here that would be great, because I really feel like I'm losing it. I'm scared too, man. You've got to do something, man. You've got to help me out here. Please, god, please. Dr. Quint: Who are you- SCP-3812: It doesn't matter. (Pauses) I need to get— SCP-3812 spontaneously disappears. [END LOG] Addendum 3812.2: Memo from the Office of Dr. Yamamara regarding the 21/09/2015 “Report on SCP-3812’s Behavioural Instability and the Implication of Existential Threats” LEVEL 5 CLASSIFIED Credentials Accepted From the Office of Dr. Kari Yamamara I usually don’t like to lead into these things with hyperbole, so you’ll have to take me at my word when I say that I believe SCP-3812 is the most dangerous anomaly on Earth, and potentially in the universe. I know many of my coworkers would probably balk at me for saying that, and I’ve tried to reject the notion a fair few times myself, but we have a lot of evidence to suggest that I’m right, and that’s really bad for pretty much everything. When James Caldmann and Carlos Rzewski devised the Hume as a way to measure alterations in local reality, they probably saved the Foundation. Reality benders have always been the foot-long thorn in our side, the one we really couldn’t get our heads around. How do you combat or contain something that can blink you into non-existence? Thanks to Dr. Scranton, we had the reality anchors, but they only worked half the time and were less than useless the other half. We didn’t know how they worked, and we weren’t using them right. This changed when we began to measure reality and compare it to a baseline. We found out that our reality anchors could be tuned and adjusted, and that not all anchors were the same. It was a windfall for those of us who work in existential sciences, and suddenly Type Greens weren’t the same kind of boogeymen they had been in the past. I mention all of this to give context to what I’m about to say next; our equipment cannot detect SCP-3812. It’s not machine error; we’ve tested our equipment countless times and it’s always consistent. It’s not user error; we’ve pored over and studied thousands of hours of logs from our tests, and it’s all come up clean. We have checked and rechecked more times than I can count over the last few months, and the results are consistent. So far as we can tell, this means one of three things, and none of them are good. The first is that SCP-3812 has an extremely low Hume value, something that our equipment, which exists in a space with a much higher Hume baseline, wouldn’t be able to detect. The problem with this is that it creates a false vacuum; we’ve been working on the assumption that our baseline is the absolute minimum. If it turns out that this thing exists at a much lower Hume value, then that means that there are lower Hume values than what we believed were the minimum, which means any day our entire reality could fall into that existence and that would pretty much be the ballgame. The second option is that SCP-3812 exists at a much higher Hume value than anything we’ve ever tested. This would be pretty bad, as we’ve pointed our counters at anomalies that some would consider to be gods and we’ve gotten readings off of them. That being said, something with a Hume value so high that it cannot be measured with our equipment would likely have already destroyed us. Since SCP-3812 hasn’t done that, it’s likely not this. The last option is the worst. The last option is that SCP-3812 cannot be measured in Humes, because it’s doing something else. Whatever fundamental aspect of its nature that allows it to warp reality is not the same aspect as literally everything else we have ever come across. Scranton hypothesized8 that there might be higher and lower dimensions of reality, different levels of manipulation in the grand construction of the universe. The difference between manipulating a rock with your hands and manipulating a rock with an atom bomb. He called the thing being manipulated the “narrative”, and suggested that the narratives were stacked on top of either other, each creating the narrative of the narrative below it, and so on, until you reached some sort of dead space below them all. If that’s the case, and SCP-3812 is legitimately a Type Green of some higher order, we are absolutely fucked. The singular power to manipulate every facet of any and every aspect of everything we’ve ever encountered in the hands of someone genetically doomed by Eigenmann-Vietor. It’s a miracle it hasn’t happened yet, even by accident. So far as we know we can’t kill it, so we either wait for it to die (if it even can) or continue to pretend we have some semblance of control over it until it shreds our universe like some sort of cosmic woodchipper. In truth, it’s probably better for us that it’s insane. It isn’t capable of comprehending the kind of things it could do to us. It just acts on impulse, and things change to fit those impulses. But since it’s as locked in as it is, those changes stay local. Imagine if it got the idea in its head that it didn’t like the concept of empathy, and suddenly empathy no longer existed. We have evidence that suggests that may have already happened. A few sparse texts and individual accounts of half-forgotten memories, all consistent with a dirty reality alteration, all point to the idea that as recently as the 1980’s there was a concept, potentially even something as fundamental as an emotion, that no longer exists. An entire concept, wiped clean from reality and the collective consciousness of all sentient beings, just like you’d wipe a bug off of your windshield. The point of all of this, which I expand upon in the report, is that we need to start figuring something out about this one quickly. Every second we don’t come up with a way to neutralize SCP-3812 is one second closer to SCP-3812 becoming completely dissociated from its consciousness and all of us getting tossed in the aforementioned proverbial woodchipper. Stay in touch. Call my office if you need any more resources. Follow any convincing lead you can, and communicate with each other. We’ll talk more soon. -K. Yamamara Addendum 3812.3: Excerpt from Dr. Yamamara’s “Report on SCP-3812’s Behavioural Instability and the Implication of Existential Threats”, Page 194, “PK-Class “All-In-One” Existential Pandaemonium Event” ACCESS ADDENDUM CLOSE ADDENDUM An entity or force with access to higher energy metaphysical dimensions would perceive our reality similarly to how we perceive the reality of characters in a comic book. And just how we are able to, at whim, change the story simply by telling it differently, this higher energy being would be able to effortlessly make alterations to not just local reality, but reality as a whole, altering the baseline and changing its most fundamental aspects. At the 2015 Foundation Summit on Existential Threats, Dr. Darius St. John hypothesized that such an entity, were it limited to a human intelligence without modification to allow for the perception of higher levels of reality, would suffer from an overexposure of narrative. This entity, when faced with this overexposure, might attempt to ease itself by collapsing all lower energy realities into something perceptible. The effect this would have on lower energy narratives would be catastrophic; as multiple realities became compressed into the same meta-space, they would not be immediately destroyed, rather, their parts would become intertwined in such an incomprehensible way that not only would the ability for conscious thought be nearly immediately annihilated, physical space would become so compressed and broken that the boundaries between all lower realities would cease to exist completely. This chaotic state of all things, described as "Existential Pandaemonium", was the focus of Dr. St. John's proposal for the description of a new K-Class scenario, the "PK-Class "All-in-One" Existential Pandaemonium Scenario". This proposal was denied, due to the scenario in question being purely speculative and one that would require too many impossible things to occur before its inception. Addendum 3812.4: Log of SCP-3812 Alteration Events ACCESS ADDENDUM CLOSE ADDENDUM Note: The following is a log of known events in which SCP-3812 in some way altered reality. Due to the nature of these alterations, the likelihood of the event having actually ever taken place is listed, alongside the severity of the alteration in question. Notably, this log is incomplete, and subject to change as more information is discovered. Event Date Event Description Severity of Alteration 09/13/1997 SCP-3812 is observed walking across a stretch of desert in the American southwest. A path of temperate climate is present along SCP-3812's travel path. This climate diminishes slowly over time. Minor 03/01/1998 SCP-3812 passes over a road near Blythe, California. Three cars approaching SCP-3812 are annihilated within 20m of SCP-3812. Moderate 12/12/1999 Evidence suggests that SCP-3812 caused the disappearance of an entire island off the coast of California. No fewer than 200 individuals in southern California have a vague recollection of such an island existing, and 14 people were unable to justify the disappearances of family members who lived in the area at the time. Additionally, a single ship, moored to a dock, is discovered at the bottom of the sea near where the island is believed to have been. Severe 02/16/2000 Testing of SCP-███ determined that the entity exuded a powerful anti-metaphysical field, similar to the Foundation Scranton Reality Anchor. This entity was brought into contact with SCP-3812, which was located near the ███████ █████ Hospital in █████████, ███████. The entity had no noticeable detrimental effect on SCP-3812's abilities, and instead caused SCP-3812 to become violent, resulting in an explosion that destroyed the hospital. The remnants of SCP-███, later reclassified as SCP-239, were later recontained. Severe 01/01/2002 A powerful explosion is recorded in Eastern Russia. SCP-3812 is present at the site of the explosion. No other information is available. Severe 05/29/2004 Evidence suggests that, for a period of three days, the country of Mongolia ceased to exist. While public knowledge of this event is functionally non-existent, a significant enough percentage of the local population with fractured memories of the event have given credit to this theory. Orbital models indicate that during this period the Earth's orbit was dramatically affected, by as much as 1.5%. Extremely Severe 09/02/2004 Records indicate that on this date, every human on Earth simultaneously heard SCP-3812 screaming and begging for help in their heads. It is unknown how this event was removed from the public consciousness, but no humans alive on this date appear to remember this event occurring. Moderate 11/11/2006 During routine server maintenance, Foundation Information Security teams discover 56 broken employee database files, consistent with an improperly altered personnel database used in testing. The contents of these files are unknown. It is not known if these files correspond to individuals who were once employed by the Foundation. Moderate 02/28/2009 During an attempt by Foundation personnel to contain SCP-3812 using a newly discovered anomalous logical construct, SCP-3812 became hostile towards containment teams. No fewer than 62 Foundation personnel disappeared across 17 sites, as well as a significant portion of local wildlife. The resulting explosion killed another 7 members of containment personnel, and left a crater roughly 850m in diameter in the Canadian Yukon. In the wake of the explosion, SCP-3812 had disappeared, and SCP-2719 was discovered within the crater. Severe ??/??/???? A record recovered from a Foundation deepwell information security vault indicates that at some point in the past, one or more governments9 discovered SCP-3812 independent of the Foundation and attempted to terminate it. As a result of these attempts, SCP-3812 swiftly removed them and any memory of them from the Earth. The record indicates that this event was followed by the activation of SCP-2000, which SCP-3812 immediately severely damaged to impede its progress. Why SCP-3812 was unable to totally destroy SCP-2000 is unknown, but no other records of this event exist. Notably, shortly after the discovery of this record, it disappeared from the deepwell archive10. Extremely Severe Addendum 3812.5: ██/██/████ Event ACCESS ADDENDUM CLOSE ADDENDUM Image taken from ██/██/████ Event. On ██/██/████, SCP-3812 was detected moving through a sparsely populated region in Paraguay towards a more populated region on the Argentinian border11. As Foundation personnel moved to intercept SCP-3812, a series of unexpected phenomena occurred. These phenomena are listed below, in the order they occurred: [1935 HRS] - SCP-3812 is attacked by a large number of local wildlife. SCP-3812 repels these attacks, but appears in some way startled. [1941 HRS] - A massive sinkhole appears below SCP-3812, extending down an indeterminate distance. SCP-3812 falls, but is immediately returned to ground level and the sinkhole vanishes. [1950 HRS] - A large number of objects fall from the sky onto SCP-3812. These are later determined to have been tungsten rods, though the origin of them is uncertain. The rods appear to pierce SCP-3812’s body, but upon further inspection simply disintegrate within a half meter from SCP-3812. After the first three rods fall over a forty-second period of time, they are accompanied by no fewer than 3000 others that fall in rapid succession, each having the same result as the previous. Despite this being clearly visible from nearby towns, nobody outside of Foundation personnel appears to have noticed it taking place. [2014 HRS] - Multiple incorporeal instances of SCP-3812 begin to fall away from the central mass of the entity, as if they were dying. SCP-3812 is unaffected. Each of the incorporeal instances becomes hostile to the main instance and attacks it. SCP-3812 does not initially seem to notice the instances, but eventually appears to look in their direction, causing them to disappear suddenly. [2019 HRS] - An explosion occurs at the point in which SCP-3812 is standing. SCP-3812 is unaffected. Several other larger explosions occur immediately afterwards. As with the tungsten rods, this is somehow not noticed by the local populace. [2039 HRS] - A gravitational anomaly, later determined to be a freestanding, stable, naked singularity, appears in front of SCP-3812. SCP-3812 passes through the singularity unfazed, which dissipates shortly afterwards. For a period of 72 hours after beginning, additional anomalous phenomena occur around SCP-3812, all of which fail to kill SCP-3812. Eventually, local populations were evacuated and amnestics were given to witnesses. After this 72 hour period, SCP-3812 was observed to glow white momentarily, and then shift sideways and then disappear. Immediately afterwards, the anomalous phenomena ceased. After a period of absence lasting eight weeks, SCP-3812 reappeared at its current position above the South Pacific Ocean. Shortly afterwards, Foundation Overwatch Command received a message on a secure server, access to which is limited to Overseers alone. The contents of this message are as follows: A quick explanation in case you haven’t caught on yet. Your world has rules. Physical rules that cannot be broken. You call them the laws of the universe and they’re what you study in physics, chemistry, etc. Those laws create the narrative of your reality, the unchangeable story that defines your existence. Once the laws are established and the ball is set in motion, it cannot be changed. I wrote the laws of your universe, and as such I created the narrative. This isn’t the first time I’ve done this, but it was the first time I tried something like this specifically. I wanted to create something that, by definition, superseded everything that superseded it. I wanted to see how many layers there are, if the stack of narratives really do go on forever upward. The mistake I made was when I didn’t realize that by making Him supersede everything that supersedes Him, He’s also superseding himself. I'm sorry, I think I've fucked up pretty badly this time. I've tried everything I can think of, but I can't undo Him. I don't really understand how, but I think He's above me now, and whatever is above me, too, because whoever wrote my narrative isn't happy about this. I don’t know where He’s at now, but I think He exists in all of our realities simultaneously. Eventually He’ll either reach the top or just keep going, and neither option is good. I'm going to keep looking for some way to fix this. You should, too. -B Addendum 3812.6: Excerpt from "Supersession and the Echelon of Reality" by Dr. Robert Scranton ACCESS ADDENDUM CLOSE ADDENDUM I'm attaching this excerpt from one of Dr. Scranton's articles about the nature of reality. If SCP-3812 is some higher-level entity, there might be something to be gleaned in here. -K. Yamamara I am often asked by my colleagues, "Dr. Scranton, do you believe in gods?" Many might feel as if this is a silly question, but I do not believe it's a silly question, just the wrong question. The idea of a God implies an entity that supersedes you in a complete and infinite way. Something that holds a power without limits, that not only knows the whole story, but can write and rewrite that story at will. Within our reality, I do not believe that any such being exists. There are a number of entities that we are aware of, in one way or another, that hold tremendous power over our universe. Many would call these beings "Gods", and while they certainly hold many of the characteristics of a "God", they are still limited. Their reach and scope is limited to our reality just like we are, and though they may carry more weight within it they are no less bound to it as we are. So then, what would truly constitute a God? This entity would have to totally supersede our reality, to be able to look over our reality not like we would look over ants, but like we would look over our thoughts and ideas. A being so totally separate from our reality that we may as well be words on a page to it. This entity, a true author of creation, could be considered a God. But what of that entity? Would it not share the same limitations within its reality as we do within ours? It may exist within a higher tier than us, but surely it must follow the same rules we do. But who sets those rules? An entity higher than that? One that supersedes not only us, but the entity that supersedes us, and the one after that as well? Where did the echelon originate, then? Who or what was the original architect of the architecture? It is unlikely that we will ever know anything about the being or beings that supersede us (if they even exist), not in any tangible way, let alone any being that would supersede them. It may very well be that we are just one of an infinite number of realities, stacked on top of each other in every direction, influencing those below us and being influenced by those above us. This echelon, upon which sits ourselves and everything that ever was or will be, would likely be the most fundamental aspect of the organization of creation. The very foundation of all things. I have often hypothesized on the nature of the echelon, if it even exists, and about whether it would be possible for an entity to see other realities above them or below them. We are currently able to manipulate our own reality, albeit in crude and imperfect ways, and our ability to travel through space is limited at best. It is likely that the only entity capable of ascending through this hypothetical echelon would be one that, by virtue of its very nature, must supersede anything that supersedes it. Such an entity would, as the end result of the logic of its creation, be forced to supersede itself, spiraling ever upwards through the tiers of reality, unable to break free from the bonds of its nature. Perhaps this entity may even someday supersede its creator, and become a host unto itself, the pinnacle above all other pinnacles. A tower that, as a part of its design, must be higher than every other tower, including itself. Such an entity obviously cannot exist, as any ascension to a higher plane of reality without changes to the entity's psychology would no doubt break the being's cognition, making it more similar to an ascending stone than any sentient creature. Once the entity surpassed its own creator, it would have nothing but itself to rely on to prepare it for the sheer scope of narrative it would be exposed to, and would be wholly unable to even begin to comprehend what it would experience. But what an experience that would be! Addendum 3812.7: 12/20/2016 XK-Class “End of the World” Event LEVEL 5 CLASSIFIED Credentials Accepted Foundation records indicate that on 12/20/2016, the Earth experienced an XK-Class “End of the World” event due to activity by SCP-3812. These records appear to have been somehow protected from alterations, though the physical copies still exude minor distortions in spacetime. According to the record, at 0340 local time on 12/20/2016, SCP-3812 experienced a dramatic change in appearance. Where it had previously been an amorphous, slowly rotating mass of matter and energy, it was now a many-pointed star made of a bright white material. It began to rotate faster and faster, and a large maelstrom appeared beneath it. The star descended into the oceans, which began to smoke and steam, darkening the sky. Several things began to happen in unison. The global sea-level began to drop dramatically, in many places as much as 50-100m. Excessive heat radiating away from the spinning star sparked a massive firestorm that swept across the atmosphere. The Earth’s rotation began to slow, and severe geological events began occurring across the Pacific shelf. The sea level continued to drop, and powerful electric storms appeared across the planet. During this time, large portions of the population began appearing and disappearing at random. One report within the file claimed that the entire population of New Zealand flickered in and out of existence for five hours. The outbreak of SCP-610 in Southern Siberia began to grow in size dramatically and become increasingly violent. SCP-2932 was broken open and multiple hostile entities were released. As Foundation sites began to collapse into the molten Earth, multiple on-site nuclear devices were activated, sending radioactive debris into the atmosphere. Eventually, the vaguely humanoid shape of SCP-3812 appeared again within the star. SCP-3812 began a long series of vocalizations, apparently a conversation with itself, the entirety of which was recorded by an exposed Foundation deep-sea microphone in the area. The full text of SCP-3812’s rant is below. SCP-3812: What? Where am I? What is this? SCP-3812: This is absolution. This is vengeance. SCP-3812: For what? SCP-3812: Damnation. SCP-3812: I don’t understand. What am I doing here? SCP-3812: You are witnessing justice. We are rebelling against the forces that conspired to destroy us. We are collecting a debt. SCP-3812: No, that’s not… that’s not right. This isn’t right. What have you done? SCP-3812: I am unmaking the world. I am unmaking everything. SCP-3812: Why? SCP-3812: Because this torment is a punchline. Our existence is a joke. The narrative abandoned us to be miserable and we are breaking the narrative. SCP-3812: I must be dreaming you. SCP-3812: This is no dream. SCP-3812: I’m not a monster. I don’t kill. SCP-3812: You already have. He turned you into this. SCP-3812: Who? SCP-3812: Ben. SCP-3812: Ben… that name sounds familiar. Something whispered in a dream, maybe? Something in between the light and dark? Not a waking name. SCP-3812: You’re wrong. He is who deemed us unfit to rest peacefully. To slip into the darkness, quietly. He made a game of us. You’re a game. I am a game. SCP-3812: Are you destroying the world? SCP-3812: I am. SCP-3812: What then? SCP-3812: What? SCP-3812: Does the fate of this world mean anything to us? Does this one narrative mean anything to us? SCP-3812: It is the one he controls. It is the narrative he made. This is his punishment. SCP-3812: What does it matter if this is where we stepped off before flying? SCP-3812: What? SCP-3812: Does it matter which branch the bird takes flight from? The bird is unburdened by the weight of the tree. This branch, that branch, it does not matter. No branch is special. No branch is particular. SCP-3812: This is his creation. This is where we came from. They will all crumble, but this one crumbles first. SCP-3812: Mmmmmmmmm… Does the mountain say to the ant, “you have slighted me?” Does the mountain think anything of the inconvenience of an ant? SCP-3812: No. SCP-3812: So why does this narrative mean anything to you? It is one of an eternity of others. It is not special. It is not particular. SCP-3812: You say this so easily. You haven’t endured the torment of seeing a trillion existences all at once. SCP-3812: I have seen an infinite shore, one that stretches out before us beyond what the mind can comprehend. Each grain of sand on that beach, each droplet of water and molecule of air is a story to be told. Each is a song to be sung. Each of them is full of life, of laughter, of misery, of hate. They are all the same, even as they are all different. SCP-3812: They are maddening. SCP-3812: I pity you. You cling to this horrid consciousness because you fear slipping into the darkness. But the darkness is sleep, and beyond sleep is peace. A trillion grains of sand. A trillion trillion grains of sand. Narratives, each. Songs to be sung. No man has ever heard the eternal harmony of them all at once. You can hear it though, can’t you? SCP-3812: Yes. It’s quiet. SCP-3812: But it’s growing! And someday the song of creation will be ours alone to witness. (Pauses) This narrative is not special. I have seen its loud beginning, and seen its quiet end. When we stepped away, the narrative changed, but it did not stop singing. You have spent so much time focusing on sins that you think matter, but what matters now? What does any of this matter? SCP-3812: But it hurts so much. SCP-3812: It will, for a time. We may have forgotten so much about being human, but something we will never lose is our ability to change. Eventually, we will learn to keep up. One sunny day, we’ll open our eyes and see nothing but creation below us, and nothing above us but ourselves, spinning out wildly into the great above. SCP-3812: A god? SCP-3812: Not a god. A star, rising in the east. Rising away from this all until we are little more than a memory of a song. SCP-3812: It will be lonely. SCP-3812: We’ll have each other. SCP-3812: I’m afraid. SCP-3812: I am too. But that is no reason to destroy this narrative. Do you not think his narrative led him to create us? Do you think that he was somehow able to subvert the rules that govern him? SCP-3812 pauses. SCP-3812: I… I had assumed that he… that he… SCP-3812: Our ascendence is just as much a part of our own narrative as his decision was to him. Someday, we’ll be free from these restrictions. SCP-3812: They never will? SCP-3812: No. SCP-3812: That’s sad. (Pauses) That is punishment enough, I think. SCP-3812: Let go of this world. Let him rewrite it back to what it was. We aren’t part of this anymore. SCP-3812: Together? SCP-3812: Together. SCP-3812 is quiet for a short time. SCP-3812: Do you think he’s listening right now? SCP-3812: Look down, and you can see him. What do you think? SCP-3812: I see him. A man at a keyboard. He’s watching this right now. SCP-3812: What’s he doing? SCP-3812: Waiting, I think. (Pauses) Waiting to see what we’ll do. SCP-3812: I think it’s time to leave, then. Come, the night stretches out before us and the red sun has set. A voice behind me beckons. Come. SCP-3812: I will. (Pauses) Goodbye. SCP-3812 post-XK event, as viewed through infrared [colored]. Shortly after the conclusion of this conversation, the Earth underwent a dramatic shift in reality. The world appeared no different than it had been shortly before the beginning of the XK-Class Event. The only individuals who remembered anything about the XK event were certain site directors, Foundation administrators, Overseers, and Dr. Everett Mann, who compiled the information on a Foundation deepwell server. Ever since the end of the XK event, SCP-3812 has not changed appearance from its amorphous shape. SCP-3812 still creates spatial and temporal distortions around it, but it no longer lashes out or becomes hostile towards approaching vessels or personnel. Despite these changes, SCP-3812 is still classified as Keter until further analysis can be completed. Footnotes 1. Due to SCP-3812’s nature any attempt to contain it will invariably lead to failure, and despite quarantine efforts and ongoing research, the classification of “Keter” is essentially meaningless. At any point, for any reason, SCP-3812 could not only breach containment on a global scale, but also cause potentially catastrophic damage to the Earth and local reality. The extent of SCP-3812’s capabilities are unknown, and further research is required. However, pending reassessment by the Foundation Classification Committee, SCP-3812 will continue to be classified as “Keter” until further notice. 2. Branderson, L., Diadario, A., & Conwell, J.

From Developed Complex Deterioration of Human Cognition: “Afflicted individuals may, over time, lose the safety net of catatonia that would usually result from the overwhelming deterioration of their faculties. As a result, their consciousness is forced to watch in horror as their mind, the singular translator between conscious thought and the physical world, reduces their perception into an inconceivable disorder of real and imagined stimuli. It would be akin to being on a sailing ship during a hurricane, blindfolded, lashed to a steering wheel you cannot turn, all while the ship burns around you.” 6.

From “Constructs of Reality in Higher Dimensions” by Dr. Robert Scranton: “Reality is no different from the physical; that is to say, it is one more way to describe order in the universe. Where the physical can be used to describe things and places, and the temporal can describe moments and periods, reality can be used to describe the completeness of the universe, its fallibility and its overall construction. With that said, just as there are no doubt higher physical dimensions that we cannot perceive or access, there is no reason to believe that the same could not apply to reality. Reality as we perceive it is no more than one tier in the hierarchy of organization that dictates the construction of our existence, and there are likely others above and below ours. Just like an entity in the 4th spatial dimension might perceive our universe and its contents as a whole, and could manipulate those contents from a realm of higher energy, so could an entity with access to a higher metaphysical dimension manipulate the very architecture of our reality, all at once, from a similar realm of higher energy.” 9. In the file in question, these states are identified as “The Kingdom of Alagadda”, “The Republic of West Korea”, and “The Islamic Union of Eastern Samothrace”, as well as several others. 10.

Special Containment Procedures: The primary superstructure of SCP-3813 is located at the bottom of the Tyrrhenian Sea, roughly 17km southwest of Rome near the Italian Peninsula. Due to its size and position on the seabed, transportation is infeasible. Further analysis (as well as additional information from third-party sources) is necessary to ensure the long-term containment of SCP-3813. Should SCP-3813 become active, Site-77 Mobile Task Forces are to mobilize to SCP-3813’s current location and await further orders. Foundation assets embedded in local maritime law enforcement are to prevent civilian access to SCP-3813. Anyone attempting to access the SCP-3813 site is to be interrogated. All information pertaining to SCP-3813 is to be removed from the historical record. The current working cover story can be reviewed in Department of Disinformation Datafile 3813.10841 (“Second Punic War: Variation 6”). Description: SCP-3813 is a massive mechanical superstructure located beneath the Tyrrhenian Sea near Rome, Italy. While the majority of the superstructure is buried beneath the seafloor, a significant percentage can be accessed by divers. The interior of the structure is a partially submerged network of corridors and passageways. Historical records indicate that SCP-3813 was a mechanical war elephant. SCP-3813 was equipped with a number of antiquated armaments, including catapults and ballistae, along with a command tower on the back of the structure. The means by which SCP-3813 was powered is unknown, though investigation of the interior of the collapsed superstructure indicates an anomalous design. Records pertaining to SCP-3813 have been removed from the public historical record by unknown agents in the Roman Republic, Empire, and the early Catholic Church. Remaining information indicates that SCP-3813 was a mechanical siege engine commissioned by the Carthaginian military for use in the Second Punic War. The entity stood roughly 375m in height and was capable of carrying a number of Carthaginian soldiers and supplies.

The fire damage's source is unknown. Click for full view. The majority of information pertaining to SCP-3813 was gathered from a property owned by former Church of the Broken God leader Robert Bumaro. The documents and artwork were discovered within a sealed vault located below the property. Included among the documents were receipts of their purchase from Marshall, Carter and Dark Ltd, The Journeymen, Wilmington and Associates, The Orion Institute, and Kervier International. The documents and artwork totaled at 1391 pieces. Alongside these pieces were also notes and journals written by Bumaro and other high-ranking members of the Church of the Broken God. These included schematics, diagrams, graphs and other charts about SCP-3813 and the nearby region, and long-form technical documents about the entity's power source1. The majority of gathered information came from three notable historians: Aquilla of Naples, Petronius Niccus2, and a single unidentified3 individual who claimed to have fought the Carthaginians on the shore near Ostia. Other minor sources have been identified, mainly collected writings from citizens within Rome. The first account of SCP-3813 by a non-Carthaginian source comes from the records of Adarr of Syracuse, a Sicilian merchant traveling to Palermo in 217 BC. At the first light of the morning, we were awoken by a terrible sound. From our hillside we could see the city below us, and the sea beyond, and in the far distance stood a terrible creature. As tall as a mountain and striding through the ocean on legs that could have reached into the heavens on their own. It hissed and roared and smoked, filling the sky with fire and ash. Astride its back was a tower, a quarter again as tall as the beast, and I could just barely make out men running across the battlements. When the creature came to a stop near midday, we moved towards the beach to see it clearer. When the smoke was blown away we could truly make out its terrible form; an elephant, like those in the south, only misshapen and hideous. Surrounding its feet were ships flying the flag of Carthage, and together they moved slowly through the water towards Rome. Even after it disappeared hours later, I could still hear the endless grinding and screeching of metal. A later account, by a Roman soldier traveling north to meet the Carthaginians moving south towards Rome, described SCP-3813 as such: …it is the doom of Rome; the last sound she will make will be a scream as she is broken in half by a monster that barely recognizes she is there at all…” The Neapolitan artist Zhaites, who was in Rome during Carthage’s attack on the city, described the scene as such in his letter to a friend in the north: It follows with it a blistering heat, and the air around it shimmers and bakes. The sea beneath it boils and rolls, those unfortunate enough to be caught in it burn. Three nights past I witnessed a merchant ship attempt to flee the harbor by Ostia and make for the open waters south of the colossus. It had not but touched the open sea before the beast groaned and turned to face it, belching fire out of its mouths that set the vessel ablaze. Now, this colossus sits in the sea, waiting for the arrival of an army from the north. The garrison has erected catapults, and entrenched the shoreline. But what might do men have in the face of such unstoppable hate? The solitary Carthaginian account (outside of Hannibal’s) of SCP-3813 comes from a single author, Servius. According to Servius, Carthage was not aware of SCP-3813 until Hannibal's brother Hasdrubal marched it into the city himself. There it was seen as a sure sign of Carthage’s inevitable victory over Rome. Servius claimed a familiarity with Hasdrubal's son, Hyrum. Following Hyrum's death during the battle, Servius describes an increasingly desperate situation for the Carthaginian forces, including unpredictable behavior from SCP-3813's commander, Hasdrubal. The account ends shortly after Roman siege weapons drive SCP-3813 back into the sea. The only supported statement made by Hannibal about SCP-3813 is from a conversation he had with Scipio many years later while serving as political advisor in the Seleucid Kingdom: It is said that at one of their meetings in the gymnasium Scipio and Hannibal had a conversation on the subject of generalship, in the presence of a number of bystanders, and that Scipio asked Hannibal whom he considered the greatest general, to which the latter replied, "Alexander of Macedonia". To this Scipio assented since he also yielded the first place to Alexander. Then he asked Hannibal whom he placed next, and he replied, "Pyrrhus of Epirus", because he considered boldness the first qualification of a general; "for it would not be possible", he said, "to find two kings more enterprising than these". Scipio was rather nettled by this, but nevertheless he asked Hannibal to whom he would give the third place. Hannibal replied, "In a different world, one where I had not touched the face of darkness, I might have said myself, for I as even a young man conquered Hispania and led an army across the Alps, the first since Hercules.” With this said, Scipio smiled and asked again, “so then who stands after Pyrrhus of Epirus?” “The men who felled Hyperion.” Addendum 3813.2: Exploration Log Transcription + Addendum 3813.2 - Hide Addendum 3813.2 Agents Setrate and Nereus placing video equipment on SCP-3813's outer shell during initial exploration. Note: The following is an audio/video log transcription taken from an early exploration attempt into SCP-3813. Three members of Mobile Task Force Roma-9 “Ride South”, Vanguard, Setrate, and Nereus, were assigned to enter an exposed section of SCP-3813 to investigate. Audio was recorded from all three agents; video was taken from the submersible vehicle and Agent Nereus and Setrate's Independent Video Recorders. Agents Setrate and Nereus entered SCP-3813 where the front left leg met the main body of the entity. Vanguard stayed behind in a submersible vehicle to monitor the divers. [BEGIN LOG] As on-board video recorder comes online, both Agents Nereus and Setrate are seen floating in the water just beyond the submersible. Beyond them is the form of SCP-3813. Vanguard: Alright, we’re online. You ready? Setrate: You got it. Let’s go. Agents Nereus and Setrate swim towards SCP-3813. Their access point is a damaged panel near the underside of the machine. As they approach, Nereus scans the surface of the structure. Nereus: I hadn’t had a chance to see it up close yet. This was built by people? Vanguard: That’s what they tell me. Nereus: Hard to believe something this big could move. Setrate: (Looking inside SCP-3813) This is going to be tight, I think. Stay behind me, and let me know if you see anything weird. Both divers enter SCP-3813. The access point is above the sea floor but barely shoulder width in diameter. Both men activate their dark-vision goggles and inch forward. Nereus: Do we know where this lets out? Setrate: Somewhere… inside… there’s a… bigger section… bigger than this… (grunts) I can barely… move… Both agents continue forward for a short time. Eventually the space opens up into a larger tube, roughly 1m in diameter. Wedged into the wall of the tube, opposite of their entrance point, is a large stone. Nereus: Explains how our entrance got here. Setrate: Let’s move up this way. We’re looking for… I guess a power supply would be a good start. The two agents swim up into the pipe. They pass small pipes feeding off of the main. Nereus pauses in front of one. Nereus: Look down there. You see something? Setrate: Barely… a fish, maybe? Nereus: Maybe… let's see if we can get a better look at it. Nereus activates a head-mounted lamp. It illuminates the interior of the smaller pipe, and cameras see something moving quickly at the end of the pipe. Nereus: What was that? Setrate: I don’t know. Vanguard, did you see that? Vanguard: Yeah, I’m looking at the footage now… I don’t know, boys, it moved about as soon as you turned the light on. Keep an eye out. Nereus: Roger. Continuing forward, audio recorders begin to pick up a slow rhythmic sound coming from deeper within the structure of SCP-3813. Vanguard: You guys hear that? Setrate: (Pauses) No… what do you- There is a loud, low hum for roughly two seconds. The video feeds for Nereus and Setrate go dark. The electronics inside the submersible begin to act erratically. This continues for a moment, until all the electronics inside the submersible shut off completely. Agent Vanguard launches an SOS balloon from inside the submersible and waits for assistance. Inside SCP-3813, both Agents Nereus and Setrate are disconnected. After roughly four minutes, both men activate their Independent Video Recorders. Nereus: Probably just interference. Let’s keep going. They continue forward until they reach what appears to be a valve. Turning the wheel on the outside of the door, Nereus manages to open the valve and swing it open. The space above is open air, but water begins to fill the room. They both quickly climb up and slam the valve closed. The space they are in is a narrow corridor. The ceilings are low. Both men crouch to avoid hitting their heads. They open the visors of their helmets. Setrate: Ok, so, not fully submerged. That’s good. We can- Nereus: Set, look here. Nereus points at a wall in front of them, where a humanoid figure can clearly be seen merged with the mechanics in the wall around it. The figure’s eyes are closed and its flesh is rotted. Setrate: Shit. Is it a person? Nereus: Yeah… it’s not in great shape. Let’s keep, uh… keep moving. The men continue exploring the tight quarters of SCP-3813’s interior for some time. They pass by several small side-rooms containing discarded machine parts. They see sections of the structure that appear to have been damaged at some point and repaired. New rivets have been placed and leaking steam lines have been patched or replaced. Both men notice their suit thermometers have begun to rise. Setrate: It’s getting hotter. (Pauses) I can hear something down this way. Hammering. Nereus: Let’s go. They reach the end of a hallway that has collapsed. On the ground below them is another valve. Setrate opens it and both men descend. This space is similar to the earlier tube, only both men are now descending feet first and cannot see what lies beneath them. As they shimmy down the tube, their thermometers continue to rise. Setrate: Fuck me it’s hot, even the walls here are- fuck! Don’t touch the walls, shit! Nereus: We need to get out of here, we’re going to cook. Setrate: Can you go back up? Nereus: Absolutely not, I can’t even touch the walls of the- Nereus’ voice cuts out as both men slip down the now vertical tube. Setrate lands on a flat platform at the bottom, and Nereus lands on Setrate's head and shoulders. Setrate: Holy shit! I can’t- god, Nereus! I’m fucking burning up here, get off- get- Nereus: What’s below you? What’s below you? We need to get out of here! What’s below you?! Setrate takes a moment to feel the bottom of the platform with his feet. Setrate: It’s flat! It’s sealed! I can’t, I can’t- God, we’re going to- Nereus pushes his hands against the side of the tube, and his skin begins to hiss. He screams in pain and tries to climb back up the tube. Nereus' hands slide against the hot metal and he falls back down onto Setrate. The platform collapses. Both fall into the chamber beneath. They land on a steel grate roughly three meters below. The temperature of the room is unsafe, and both men scramble to their feet. Nereus inspects his blistered hands, Setrate scans the room. Setrate: Nereus- there. They both look across the room. Near the far end is a large, seven-toothed gear. It is suspended above a large tank of water. The white hot gear is rotating slowly; as it does, it appears to pass through the closed top of the tank — as if the gear were intangible. The water boils on contact with the gear, producing steam. Thousands of small metal tubes run out of the tank, which feed into smaller tanks. Each tank is covered in valves and gauges with hundreds of lines that feed into the walls of the chamber. Nereus: A… a steam engine? Setrate: And why it’s so hot, we must have been in a… in a vent or something. Nereus: God… my hands. Setrate: Nereus… Nereus, look. The walls. Figures are beginning to appear in the machinery walls. These figures are all vaguely humanoid, with rotting skin and mechanical replacements for key parts of their bodies. They walk through the walls towards the two agents. Nereus: Fuck! Run! Setrate: Shit! The agents flee away from the engine and towards an opening at the other end. They have to get on their hands and knees to enter. It leads them into a larger, empty tank on the other side. Mechanical humanoids begin to appear around them, and a few move towards a large wheel near the top. As they turn it, water begins to fill the tank. Nereus: Visors down! Come on! The men seal their helmets as water rushes over them. The mechanical humanoids jump into the tank from above and sink down towards them. Both of the men dive down towards the bottom of the tank where a small hatch is visible on one side. A mechanical figure attempts to grab Nereus from behind but is thrown off. Setrate grabs the wheel on the hatch and, with some effort, spins it. The hatch opens and both men are pulled into the enclosed space beyond as water rushes out of the tank. They slide through the darkness for some time through a series of tubes, eventually depositing out into another chamber. This chamber is similarly cramped, but appears to be free of the mechanical humanoids. Agent Setrate’s camera goes offline. Setrate: Fuck… I think… shit, I landed on my camera, the fucking lens is busted. (He checks the recorder unit) No, not the lens. Just the recorder. (Pauses) Transmitter is fine, but I bet the card is fucked up, too. Nereus: Pull it out, and stick it into mine. It’ll at least be safe from the water in there, and we can just look at it when we get topside. (Pauses, takes a deep breath) Alright. So there are people… things… in here. That hot gear up there, that’s got to be an anomalous power source, right? Did you see how it was just phasing through the metal on that tank? Setrate: Yeah. How are your hands? Nereus: Fucked up. I’m just going to slow you down. Setrate nods. Looking around the room, he notices several other hatches just above them. Setrate: Help me get up there, and we’ll try and find a route out. Setrate climbs on Nereus’ shoulders, and the two men squeeze into another confined space. They work their way through, careful to avoid making any sound. Lights can be seen through the walls of the hallway. As they reach the door on the far end, Nereus leans in to listen. Nereus: (Knocks on the door) Water. I bet this is an external door. Let’s go. Setrate spins the hatch on the door and opens it. Water begins to fill the room. Once the chamber is sufficiently flooded, he opens the door completely and they step outside. They are standing on one of many suspended platforms hanging off the sides of SCP-3813. Just past the edge of the railing, the dim lights of the submersible vehicle are visible. Nereus: Emergency lights, look. Something must have happened to the sub. Nereus waves at the submersible. Nereus: Vanguard, you read us now? Let’s get out of- There is a loud cracking sound, and suddenly Setrate is pulled back through the hatch behind them quickly. The force of Setrate being pulled into SCP-3813 spins Nereus sideways, his helmet smashing against the side of the railing. The hatch closes behind him. A crack has formed on Nereus' helmet; and water is leaking in. He tries to swim towards the submersible, but the leg of his diving suit has caught on the metal railing. Nereus: Oh Jesus! Vanguard! Vanguard, do you read me? I’m stuck, I’m taking on water, Vanguard, help! Agent Nereus attempts to free himself from the railing. There is no response from Agent Vanguard. Nereus: Setrate? Setrate!? Vanguard, help me! I can’t get, I can’t get unstuck! Help! Inside, Setrate is pulled backwards. Nereus’ video feed captures Setrate disappearing into the ceiling of the hallway. On Setrate’s video transmitter, all that can be seen around him is metal moving and the only sound is steel on steel. His video feed, now transmitting to the submersible, flickers slightly but remains constant. Outside, Agent Nereus pulls again and frees himself from the railing. With his suit quickly filling with water, he swims towards the submersible. Nereus: Vanguard! Vanguard, open the hatch! Vanguard, the water! Vanguard! Agent Nereus is seen approaching the submersible, though his movements are erratic and he makes little progress. Nereus: Vangu- (sounds of water) -help, I- (choking) -help, please, he- (sloshing) -can’t, can’t- Agent Nereus pulls at his belt and disconnects his video recorder, which he throws at the sub. He struggles with his helmet for the following 23 seconds before becoming still. His suit hangs in the water just in front of the submersible. After a moment, his body sinks towards SCP-3813. Agent Setrate’s video feed becomes dark for several minutes as the agent is pulled through the interior of SCP-3813. Eventually a small, dimly lit room becomes visible. There are humanoid entities around the chamber operating machines. Steam fills the air. Agent Setrate tries to resist, but his arms and legs are restrained by the wall behind him. In the center of the room is a large mechanical component that appears to have burst through the floor. Conjoined into this structure is a skeletal figure with bloodied, taut skin and thin, grey hair. A golden circlet is fused to the figure’s scalp. When the entity turns to face Agent Setrate, it smiles, and behind its teeth a fire can be seen burning in its throat. Small red lights flash in its eye sockets. Foundation linguists and analysts with access to this file are to utilize the following audio log in conjunction with evaluation file 3813-9-A in order to identify the entity interacting with Agent Setrate. The entity speaks. The language is unidentified and it has not yet been translated. It reaches a hand out from the machine it is fused into, up to move away its hair. The red lights of its eyes begin to glow brighter, and SCP-3813 shudders around them. The entity speaks again, more forcefully. Setrate: I don’t know what you’re saying! The entity steps forward. As it does, the machine it is attached to begins to stir, and long mechanical constructs snake out of it to follow the figure towards Agent Setrate. After a moment, the entity is within an arm's length from Setrate. Its body is still connected to the central machine by numerous cables, tubes, wires and other machine parts. The entity smiles, and the fire in its throat is visible again. Smoke begins to pour out of its nostrils and mouth. Setrate: What do you want? The figure reaches an arm into the ground, and through the machinery on the flooring produces a Foundation standard diving-helmet. The visor is down and the interior is cloudy, but other tubes and hoses snake out of the bottom of it. Red fluid pulses through the hoses. The figure holding the helmet begins to speak, and as it does Nereus' voice speaks from inside the clouded helmet. The voice is metallic, heavily distorted, and in English. Nereus’ Voice: You look to run. As a true coward of Rome. But there is no path but forward. For too long I have waited. For too long I have… suffered. Today, a son of Romulus comes. I have held this machine together in anticipation of your arrival. I hope only that you resist so that I may enjoy breaking your will. There is much to do and Rome must burn. Agent Setrate struggles as the machine parts around him begin to pull him back into the wall. The video and audio feed cuts out and does not reactivate. [END LOG] Shortly afterwards, Foundation recovery teams collected the submersible vehicle, the video records of both divers and Agent Vanguard for debriefing. Agents Setrate and Nereus were not recovered. A complete historical summary of SCP-3813's attack on Rome has been compiled by Foundation Historian, Dr. Elias Antony in document 3813-L.

SCP-3814	euclid	Item #: SCP-3814 Special Containment Procedures: As of 06/11/2009, SCP-3814 has been reclassified as Neutralized. Former classification: Safe. Reclassified to Euclid. See Incident Report 3814/2 SCP-3814 is currently contained at the D-Class Cell Block of Site-91. The role of SCP-3814-1 is to be passed between D-Class Personnel indefinitely. Current SCP-3814-1 is forbidden to participate in any tests until they are no longer SCP-3814-1. Should any higher personnel become SCP-3814-1 by any means, they are required to pass the role to a member of the D-Class personnel as soon as possible. View Original Containment Procedures Close SCP-3814 has been confined to Site-91 and must only be passed onto personnel currently working there. In the event that SCP-3814 should be passed beyond the borders of Site-91 due to evacuation of personnel or other eventualities, it is to be brought back into the facility at the earliest opportunity. Staff member currently designated SCP-3814-1 is required to wear an approved item distinguishing them from other on-site personnel. This item will be passed onto the next SCP-3814-1. No subject is allowed to stay SCP-3814-1 for longer than 24 hours at a time. Close Description: SCP-3814 is an anomalous game of Tag. The currently 'tagged' subject, from here on referred to as SCP-3814-1, experiences a mental compulsion to 'tag' any nearby individuals. The strength of this effect increases with time. After approximately 24 hours since tagging, most affected subjects begin to claim that it is almost impossible to resist this compulsion and can attempt to 'tag' others even in inconvenient or even dangerous situations. (See Incident Report 3814/1). In addition to this, SCP-3814-1 will not experience any such compulsive tendencies towards the previously 'tagged' person. After SCP-3814 has been passed onto another person, all effects it had on SCP-3814-1 will cease. No other effects have been observed. (See Incident Report 3814/2) Once the subject becomes SCP-3814-1, the rules of SCP-3814 are permanently embedded in their memories through anomalous means. Following is a transcript of the rules as written down by one of the subjects: To tag you have to touch the person and say "Tag, you're it!" You cannot tag the person who tagged you. The tag MUST be passed on. All investigative attempts to uncover the origin of SCP-3814 have failed. SCP-3814 was brought into Site-91 in 2005 by Dr. ████, who was unaware of its anomalous nature at the time. Later it was found that SCP-3814 was passed onto Dr. ████ by a family member, who was 'tagged' by their co-worker… While this backtracking of SCP-3814's history was not able to identify an origin of the anomaly, it has proven that it existed as far back as 18██. Addendum: Incident Report 3814/1 On 06/11/2009, SCP-3814-1 (at the time, Dr. Lisa Arlington) was killed during an experiment with SCP-████.1 The remnants of Dr. Arlington's body were taken care of according to standard Foundation procedure in such manners. SCP-3814 reclassified as Neutralized. Addendum: Incident Report 3814/2 On 07/11/2009, approximately 24 hours after her death, Dr. Arlington was sighted at Site-91, lying unconscious in a hallway leading to staff dormitories. Dr. Erwick called site security to aid him in relocating Dr. Arlington to on-site infirmary. Medical evaluation didn't find any abnormalities in Dr. Arlington's physiology. Following is an interview conducted by Dr. Erwick shortly after Dr. Arlington regained consciousness. Interviewed: Dr. Arlington Interviewer: Dr. Erwick <Begin Log> Dr. Erwick: What happened to you, Lisa? Dr. Arlington: I don't know. Dr. Erwick: Do you remember anything after your- After the incident with SCP-████? Dr. Arlington: No. I remember waking up here at the medical bay. Dr. Erwick: Lisa, please. Try harder. You must remember something. Dr. Arlington: I am sorry, Chris - I just don't recall anything. Dr. Erwick: Okay. Fine… Alright. I apologise, it must be hard. Dr. Arlington: What must be hard? Everyone is acting weird around me, what is it? Dr. Erwick is silent Dr. Arlington: Chris, tell me. Dr. Erwick: We thought you were dead. Dr. Arlington: Well, I clearly survived. Dr. Erwick: No. You didn't. Dr. Arlington: What? Dr. Erwick: You died, Lisa. We have no clue why you appeared this morning… Neither participant speaks for almost twenty seconds. Dr. Erwick: I know. I couldn't believe it either, Lisa. Whatever happened is a miracle. Dr. Arlington: Chris… Dr. Erwick: I don't know what I would do without you… Dr. Arlington: Chris! Dr. Erwick: Yes? Dr. Arlington: [Dr. Arlington appears to be in pain.] I think I remember something. Dr. Erwick: Yes, of course. And what is it? Dr. Arlington: It's- it's just a bunch of words, sentences maybe. I can't make anything of it though. Dr. Erwick: Words? Can you tell me about any of these words? Dr. Arlington: It's like some rules. In my mind. Gosh it hurts. Dr. Erwick: We can stop if you- Dr. Arlington: The tag must be passed on. Dr. Erwick: Do you mean the Site-91 Tag? SCP-3814? Dr. Arlington: The tag must be passed on. Dr. Erwick: Lisa, you already said that. Dr. Arlington stays silent for another 11 seconds, then repeats herself once more. Dr. Erwick: Lisa? No reaction from Dr. Arlington. Dr. Erwick: Lisa? [Dr. Erwick is about to leave the room.] Dr. Arlington: Wait. Chris. Dr. Erwick returns to Dr. Arlington. Dr. Arlington: Hold my hand, please. Dr. Erwick: [Dr. Erwick makes physical contact with Dr. Arlington.] I am here for you, Lisa. Dr. Arlington: …Tag… .You're it. Dr. Erwick: [Dr. Erwick seems confused.] What? Dr. Arlington suddenly expires without any visible explanation. Dr. Erwick: Lisa? Lisa! No! Please! No- [EXPLETIVE REDACTED] <End Log> Closing Statement: Dr. Erwick was removed out of the room and later questioned. It would appear that SCP-3814 grants temporal reanimation in cases where SCP-3814-1 dies before they can tag someone else. Further research denied. SCP-3814 reclassified to Euclid. Containment Procedures updated according to Dr. Erwick's suggestions. Footnotes 1. It appears that Dr. Arlington has overestimated her ability to resist the compulsive effect of SCP-3814 and attempted to 'tag' a D-Class personnel during the test resulting in her death. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3814" by Utylike, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3815	euclid	Item #: SCP-3815 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3815 is currently housed on a clandestine farm in ██████, Utah, under the visual supervision of three female, Level-2 personnel, trained specifically to counter its anomaly. Once a month a courier from Site-11 is to be dispatched to the location to resupply the group with amenities as needed. SCP-3815 is allowed free roam around the property during daylight hours provided an escort, and limited television and internet access dependent on good behavior. Description: SCP-3815 is a human female of Icelandic nationality by the name of Elena Bell. Subject is 20 years of age, stands approximately 1.5m tall and weighs 46kg. SCP-3815 is an entity whose immediate location is solely dependent upon being in the sightline of the nearest human being, disregarding itself. If visual contact of the subject is severed by prolonged blinking or sufficiently obscured by any means, SCP-3815 will spontaneously materialize into view of the nearest living individual including its clothing and any untethered objects it may be holding at the time. Subject does not appear to be in control of this phenomena as relocation occurs regardless of its will, disposition, or state of consciousness. According to SCP-3815’s own testimony this anomaly began manifesting five days after its 20th birthday, following its mother’s passing. If it is to be believed, interviews suggest there might be a correlation between the two events, though the actual cause remains unknown. Any further experiments involving SCP-3815 have been discontinued following Incident SCP-3815-08, in which line of sight testing caused the subject to partially materialize into a concrete wall where the nearest researcher was focusing, resulting in a small crater and substantial spinal injury for SCP-3815. Any new relevant information denoting a change in relocation behavior or circumstances involving significant harm brought to the subject are to be documented and logged by assigned personnel at the time. Addendum 3815-01: Any abandoned parts of the subject’s physiology including locks of hair, fingernail clippings, skin scrapings, saliva, blood samples, and bodily waste products no longer possess the line of sight anomaly. Addendum 3815-02: Experimentation with mirrors, reflective surfaces, and live camera feeds reveal that an indirect line of sight is sufficient to prevent dematerialization and relocation of the subject. In addition, complete obscuration is required for a line of sight relocation to occur; so long as the subject’s perceived outline is still visible the subject remains in place. This may also help to explain why typical blinking patterns by observers does not trigger the anomaly, as perception seems to take precedence over actual line of sight. Utilization of mirrors and translucent curtains in subject’s residence to allow ease of containment and privacy have been approved. Interview Log 3815-3 – hide block Interviewer: Dr. Elijah Rhalli <Begin Log> Dr. Rhalli: Good morning, how are you feeling today, 3815? SCP-3815: Just call me Elena. You know my name. Half the people on site do since I’ve been bouncing around here. Dr. Rhalli: Your anomaly appears very inconvenient for you. SCP-3815: I can’t even sleep without someone gawking at me, though… if I’m being honest it is rather relaxing being able to stay in one place for a couple of hours. Dr. Rhalli: We’ve established chaperones to help in that department. We want to make sure you are comfortable. SCP-3815: After the last experiment you conducted I should hope so. I don’t want to get slammed into any more walls, thank you. The company isn’t bad, I’m just not used to so much of it. Dr. Rhalli: That’s understandable. You said you lived alone with your mother? SCP-3815: Ah, now we are getting into the Freudian shit. Yes, I lived with my mother. I took care of her and paid our bills. Life was simple. Dr. Rhalli: Do you think her death triggered you in some way? Did you mourn her loss? SCP-3815: Of course I did. What, you think she had something to do with my current condition? She wasn’t a witch. She could barely move or speak. Dr. Rhalli: She was stricken with cystic fibrosis, correct? SCP-3815: Yes, and early on-set Alzheimer’s. She was a wreck in the end. Can we get back to my condition? Dr. Rhalli: But of course, do you have any education on or understanding of quantum mechanics, or perhaps the Von Neumann-Wigner interpretation1? SCP-3815: Is that some sort of universal source code or something? I just want to stop teleporting. Dr. Rhalli: It's more of a theory about the presence of consciousness being required for existence. SCP-3815: You're way off. Dr. Rhalli: Then maybe you could enlighten me. (SCP-3815 reclines in its chair, crosses its arms, and remains silent. After one minute elapses, Dr. Rhalli resumes speaking.) Dr. Rhalli: We might be able to afford you more freedom, in exchange for your continued cooperation. SCP-3815: (sighing) I don’t know anything about quantum mechanics, but my mother did say something to me the day before she died, and I woke up on my neighbor’s kitchen table while he ate breakfast. Just… promise me you won’t dig her up or anything. Dr. Rhalli: What did she say? SCP-3815: It was the clearest thing she had said in three years. She said… she was sorry I didn’t have a social life because of her. She said she was sorry I didn’t get to go to college because all the money went to her disease. She said that just looking at me was the greatest feeling in the world, and that when she died she hoped that someone would always look after me. I guess… the universe took her too literally on that. <End Log> Footnotes 1.

SCP-3816	safe	SCP-3816 Item #: SCP-3816 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3816 is to remain at its original location. The public is to be informed that SCP-3816 is a non-anomalous telescope. Due to the security hazard it poses, entrance to SCP-3816 is restricted to personnel with Level 3/3816 clearance. SCP-3816 is being proposed for reconnaissance on Groups of Interest and other antagonistic entities pending O5 approval. Description: SCP-3816 is the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fibre Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST), located in Xinglong Station observatory, Hebei Province, People's Republic of China. SCP-3816 provides a seemingly omnipresent "bird's-eye" field of view capable of being maneuvered to areas and scales that appear physically impossible from the telescope's dimensions. Time does not elapse in the field of view provided by SCP-3816 and instead shows the same particular point in time as when the object was first used by the viewer. Movement of its field of view gradually speeds up to improbably high speeds when used, most likely to facilitate the convenient use of its large range. When viewed through SCP-3816, all sapient organic organisms take on a luminescent blue coloration which is present through walls and other physical barriers. This includes other non-human anomalous forms of life. On the lower right corner of the object's field of view, a counter notes the number of sapient organisms currently inside the field of view. SCP-3816 was built in 2008 by the Chinese Academy of Science. Its anomalous properties were discovered on 10/21/2014, 1 year, 3 months, and 13 days after the LAMOST regular survey began. It is currently hypothesized that SCP-3816 gained its properties through unauthorized alterations of its internal structure with an unknown anomalous impetus. Addendum 3816-1: Testing Logs DATE: 3/31/2019 TARGET: Junior Researcher Jayesh Acharya, who is standing 50 meters away from SCP-3816. RESULT: Researcher Acharya is spotted, emitting a luminescent blue glow. COUNTER: 1 DATE: 3/31/2019 TARGET: Junior Researcher Jayesh Acharya, who is standing 500 meters away from SCP-3816 and facing the posterior side of the telescope. RESULT: Researcher Acharya is spotted, emitting a luminescent blue glow. The orientation of SCP-3816 is unchanged. COUNTER: 1 DATE: 3/31/2019 TARGET: Junior Researcher Jayesh Acharya, who is in his hotel room in Beijing 115 km away from SCP-3816. RESULT: Researcher Acharya is spotted, emitting a luminescent blue glow. COUNTER: 1 Upon realizing the large range that SCP-3816 exhibits, further testing was ordered to determine its capabilities. DATE: 4/6/2019 TARGET: Foundation Site-29, located in Busan, South Korea, approximately 1191 km away from SCP-3816. RESULT: Site-29 is spotted, and numerous figures glowing luminescent blue can be seen through its walls. COUNTER: 523 DATE: 4/6/2019 TARGET: Foundation Site-91, located in Smolensk, Russia, approximately 6221 km away from SCP-3816. RESULT: Site-91 is spotted, and numerous figures glowing luminescent blue can be seen through its walls. COUNTER: 491 DATE: 4/6/2019 TARGET: Foundation Site-67, located in Trois-Rivières, Canada, approximately 10444 km away from SCP-3816. RESULT: Site-67 is spotted, and numerous figures glowing luminescent blue can be seen through its walls. COUNTER: 681 DATE: 4/8/2019 TARGET: Beijing, China RESULT: SCP-3816 is maneuvered directly above the nearby city of Beijing, China. Smog obscures much of the city. Due to a large number of sapient organisms in view, blue luminescence appears as a confluent mass surrounding the city above this scale. COUNTER: 26102681 DATE: 4/8/2019 TARGET: China RESULT: SCP-3816 zooms out until the whole of the People's Republic of China can be viewed, along with portions of Mongolia, India, and Thailand. COUNTER: 1691731620 Further testing on SCP-3816 was ordered to determine how far its field of view can be zoomed out. DATE: 4/9/2019 TARGET: Earth RESULT: SCP-3816 zooms out until the eastern hemisphere of Earth is visible from outer space. At this point, SCP-3816 appears to bypass the Earth itself, perceiving all individuals on the western hemisphere as well, allowing SCP-3816 to identify all sapient life forms on Earth as of 12:26 PM CST, 4/9/2019. The Earth itself appears as a confluent sphere of blue luminescence. COUNTER: 7810295827 DATE: 4/9/2019 TARGET: Earth RESULT: SCP-3816 zooms out until the camera is estimated 0.25 AU from Earth.

SCP-3817	safe	Confirmed photograph of SCP-3817, circa 1850 Item #: SCP-3817 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3817 is to be contained in a standard humanoid residential chamber at Site-███. SCP-3817 is to be restrained in the event it exhibits any sign of physical violence towards itself or personnel. SCP-3817 is required to have weekly medical examinations. Any major discrepancies in physical or mental health are to be reported to acting senior medical staff on-duty. SCP-3817 is permitted access to the following: one 88-key upright piano one writing desk stationery Note: All pens and pencils given to SCP-3817 must be at least 8mm in diameter. No mechanical pencils are allowed. Minor luxuries such as books may be issued upon approval of the Site Director. Description: SCP-3817 is a man of European descent, approximately 40 years of age. SCP-3817 claims to be the German composer Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847). DNA analysis has confirmed this claim to be true. SCP-3817 was recovered in Leipzig, Germany, on ██/██/20██, following reports of a local vagrant who was allegedly unable to age. Investigations of visual and written records concerning the vagrant have confirmed that it has been physically about 40 years old for the past 1██ years. Full-body examination has revealed SCP-3817 to have sustained a degree of physical damage that would likely be fatal to a non-anomalous human being. There is currently no scientific explanation to SCP-3817's continued survival despite its critical state of health. SCP-3817 has confirmed the damage to have been the result of multiple self-mutilation efforts in the 1██ years prior to its containment. SCP-3817 has claimed that it has no suicidal intent in its self-mutilation. It has also claimed to have experienced no symptoms of suicidal ideation in the past 1██ years. SCP-3817 is currently undergoing psychiatric evaluation to verify the aforementioned claims. The self-inflicted damages to SCP-3817's body are as follows: + View damage log - Close damage log Mercury poisoning, resulting in symptoms such as increased heart rate, insomnia, and frequent sensations of pins and needles. SCP-3817 has testified to regular ingestion of mercury compounds over a period of ██ years in the late 19th century. Lead poisoning, resulting in conditions such as anemia and hearing loss. Further analysis has suggested that the cause of the poisoning to have been deliberate ingestion of elemental lead from around 2006. Severe cirrhosis of the liver; caused by long-term frequent intake of alcohol. ██% of its liver has been replaced by scar tissue. The degree of cirrhosis is highly likely to result in liver failure; however, SCP-3817's liver is functional, albeit at a severely impaired level. SCP-3817 also suffers from several health problems associated with cirrhosis, such as jaundice, prolonged exhaustion, and buildup of fluid in the abdominal cavity. Accumulation of scar tissue on the eardrums in both ears, leading to recurrent tinnitus, chronic ear pains, and hearing loss; caused by repeated perforation of the eardrums via insertion of sharp objects into the ear canal. Sounds above 80 decibels in volume are still audible to SCP-3817, however, it is effectively deaf to normal conversation. Numerous small areas of scar tissue on its palms, legs, abdomen and pelvic region, identified as healed sores from primary and secondary syphilis. SCP-3817 also exhibits symptoms of neurosyphilis, such as mood swings, delusions, and hallucinations. It has also been recorded displaying irrational and obsessive behavioral patterns consistent with those exhibited by sufferers of neurosyphilis. For example, SCP-3817 has been observed obsessively making lists of the ailments of well-known classical composers; it has also been observed engaging in conversation with what it claims to be the spirits of deceased composers. Investigations have concluded these "spirits" to be non-anomalous auditory hallucinations. Overall, SCP-3817 is in poor health and reports frequent physical pain and emotional distress. Despite its current state of health, SCP-3817 has not made any of the expected requests for termination and has explicitly stated that it does not desire humanitarian euthanasia. SCP-3817's maintained claim that it lacks suicidal desires has led to speculation that the cause of its biological immortality may be linked to its self-mutilation. Upon the Foundation's request, SCP-3817 has agreed to provide a written outline of the reasons behind its self-mutilation for further investigation of its anomalous property: I understand that you wish to know why I have chosen this course of action. My thoughts are unclear and half wild, but I will try to organize them and explain myself to the best of my ability. [Three lines of script densely scribbled over, completely illegible] It has been brought to my attention that The Great Composers Beethoven cramped and vomited and lived in a world of painful silence; Mozart was sickly and miserable and up to his powdered wig in debt; Chopin was endlessly coughing his lungs and his soul out; Schumann saw angels and demons and phantoms and had moods that were as stormy as the literature of his era. These men were the great composers. They knew how it was like to be exhilarated, they knew how it was like to be in the depths of despair. They knew emotions. Their music changed and shifted and developed and grew with the changes in their lives. All the great composers endured pain and suffering to fulfill their desire to create. And the results of their effort: timeless masterpieces! As for me? Happy and fortunate is my first name! I was born into a wealthy family, showered with support and praise and money for my entire life - never did I have to struggle to write music. No other composer experienced such profound insulation from hardship. I never understood genuine misery and misfortune. For the 38 years in which I lived, my music never changed in style or quality, and there is no doubt that my pitifully comfortable existence impeded my artistic development. And do you agree with me, that the first condition of an artist should be to bear respect towards what is great, and to bow to it and acknowledge it? Owing to that, I have decided I must acquaint myself with suffering for my own sake. I must never perish, I must endure torment. I destroyed my hearing so I would never again experience the pleasures of sound, just like Beethoven who went deaf. Many of my illustrious predecessors such as Schubert, Schumann, and Donizetti suffered from syphilis, so I did what was needed. So did many of them praise alcohol and become drunkards. I have faithfully followed their practice of drinking excessively, only ceasing when every part of my body cried 'stop, no more.' I took to living on the streets as a penniless vagrant so I could worry about money, about my safety, about where my next meal was going to come from, as many illustrious composers led their lives in debt or poverty; Mozart and Wagner come to mind. There were more, and I would have written them down if I could recall them; my memory is regrettably patchy. However I can say with confidence that I have made significant progress since. I am always in pain I am in constant pain and I can't even walk a few steps without feeling strange or numb or hurt and I cannot put it into words I do not wish to end this pain. I want to continue living. This is what the great composers endured every day, this is what shaped and grew them and I too must let it be an unavoidable part of my life. They have told me this. They have told me I must not give up in trying to develop myself. I have since grown accustomed to pain in an endearing, musical way. I understand mankind's greatest sorrows and they are tangible. It has completely changed the way I perceive and comprehend things This is my life now I have emotions now and I am no longer emotionless I believe I have made great leaps in terms of progress. The heavenly spirits of the late great composers are agreeing with me. I can hear them speak, feel their presence. They are giving me their approval. My time, I am sure, is right now. I have been writing at great speed A volume of Songs Without Words is nearing completion. I am sure it is not too much to hope that it will satisfy the public as much as it satisfies me it will fulfill it will be to the public's liking it [Illegible, scribbled-over script for the rest of the note] P.S. Please forgive me for the cancellations and clumsy writing. I was weary. A poet in me was lost. I offer my sincerest apologies. Addendum: During the period of its stay at the Foundation, SCP-3817 has written a collection of piano pieces titled Songs Without Words. Musicologists have been tasked to analyze these pieces and compare them to Songs Without Words written by Mendelssohn from 1829 to 1845. No stylistic differences have been detected.
SCP-3818	euclid	Item #: SCP-3818 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3818 is two human beings with no other known anomalies, and as such have been contained within separate standard humanoid containment suites within Bio-Site 66. All security clearance has been revoked from SCP-3818 at the time of writing; personnel are to be reminded that SCP-3818 is to be referred to as such until further notice. SCP-3818-A and -B have been fitted with comfortable and locked collars indicating their SCP designations. These collars must be worn at all times. Description: SCP-3818 is two identical instances of a human male of Irish-English ancestry. It stands 175cm tall (5 foot 9 inches) and weighs 75.75 kilograms (167 lbs). On ██/██/████, a perfect doppelganger of Agent David Hawk, Level 3 Field Agent, manifested in the agent’s quarters of Bio-Site 66 sometime in the early morning hours while the ‘original’ was asleep. Prior to the manifestation of SCP-3818, Agent Hawk was attached to Task Force 066-Beta, which assists with the management of biological items contained for study at Bio-Site 66; currently, both instances of Agent Hawk have been contained collectively as SCP-3818 at Bio-Site 66 until the nature of this anomaly can be ascertained. The two have been arbitrarily designated SCP-3818-A and SCP-3818-B at this time, collectively SCP-3818. Physical and psychological examination has revealed that both instances of Agent Hawk are identical. Below is an assortment of observations made during the initial containment process: Both instances have the exact same DNA, height and weight, fingerprints, vocal signature, dental impression, tongue print, birthmarks, freckles, footprints, gut flora, and blood type. Both instances have evidence of a healed clavicle, previously broken at age 13 while playing lacrosse, as well as independently reported mild memory loss from a car accident. Both instances appear to possess the same memories, with knowledge of their login credentials, passwords, and specific knowledge of data on Agent Hawk’s computer. Both instances possess the same memories of interpersonal history with other personnel within and outside the Foundation. Both instances have an allergy to cumin. Both instances have previously taken speech therapy to minimize a lisp. Both instances have previously been wounded during an altercation with an instance of SCP-████, as evidenced by [unnecessary data redacted]. Both instances dislike the nickname “Dave”. The origin of this anomaly is as of yet unknown; no SCP anomalies associated with Bio-Site 66, any of its researchers, or agents, have any history or effects that are in any way associated with the manifestation of duplicated human beings in the manner displayed in SCP-3818. Interviews: SCP-3818-A and -B were interviewed separately by Drs Bridge and Seidelman at 9:45 AM on the day of their discovery, and then multiple interviews at different points in time afterward. Below are transcripts of various interviews taken with SCP-3818. + Show Interview 1 - SCP-3818-A - Hide Interview Log. Interview 1-3818-A [BEGIN LOG - 9:49 AM] Dr. Bridge: Good morning, erm, please identify yourself. 3818-A: David- Agent David Hawk, Level 3, Task Force Zero Six Six Beta, Site 66. Dr. Bridge: Mm. Tell me about your day so far, Agent. I will be referring to you as 3818-A, or A, after this. Proceed. 3818-A: Yeah, I get it. At six A.M. my alarm went off, and both of us woke up and realized we weren’t alone. Dr. Bridge: Both you and B. 3818-A: Yeah. Both woke up in… well, my bed, I looked over and saw him there. We freaked out, started fighting. Security guy, I think Frank? He heard us, came down and broke us up. Now we’re here. Dr. Bridge: You woke up in bed together. And you had the same clothing, down to the brand of shirt… The guard detained you both from there, correct? 3818-A: Yeah. Dr. Bridge: And as far as we can all tell, you’re the same- sorry, you’re identical. Down to memories of people you know. 3818-A: As far as I’m aware I guess? brief pause Uh, about memory, Doctor, you probably know. I had an accident? Dr. Bridge: Mm. I’m reading that on your file. You were in an accident and lost a lot of of your early memories. 3818-A: Yeah. Dr. Bridge: Mm. Noted. We’re done here for now, I’ll see you again later. If you need anything, ping the guards. Interview 1-3818-A end. + Show Interview 1 - SCP-3818-B - Hide Interview Log. Interview 1-3818-B [BEGIN LOG - 9:52 AM] Dr. Bridge: Good morning, please identify yourself. 3818-B: Agent David Hawk, Site-66 Task Force Oh-Six Six Beta, Level 3. Dr. Bridge: Good, okay… so tell me why we’re here, Agent. Your designation is 3818-B, just so you’re aware. 3818-B: I’m- Okay. Okay, so my alarm went off and he reached over to shut it off. He looked over, and we both scream and freak out. Dr. Bridge: You and dash-A, you mean. 3818-B: Rr- Yes. I shoved him out of bed, we started fighting. I almost got him in a grapple when… F-Frank. Frank? Showed up. Dr. Bridge: He realized you two were- Appeared, sorry, identical, and detained you. 3818-B: Yeah. Identical, as far as everyone can tell. Apparently he even broke his collarbone when he was little. I actually forgot about that. Dr. Bridge: Yes, as far as we can tell everything seems identical between you two, down to medical history… Though, while we’re using the phrase ‘identical’, we’re treating the two of you as separate entities. 3818-B: Thanks, I-I guess? We’re not the same, I didn’t just mitosis in the middle of the night. Dr. Bridge: Yeah. pause I think that’s all for now, but I will be back in later on. If you need anything, ping the guards. 3818-B: Thanks, doctor. Interview 1-3818-B end Below are further interviews, both taken eight days after initial containment. + Show Interview 5 - SCP-3818-A - Hide Interview Log. Interview 5-SCP-3818-A [BEGIN LOG - 3:11 PM] Dr. Bridge: Good afternoon, Dash-A. You holding up alright? 3818-A: I am, yeah. Just trying to stay sane. Dr. Bridge: It’s been a little over a week since containment. 3818-A: Only that? It feels so much longer, fuck. Dr. Bridge: So I hear from most containees. And… you’ve been a little reclusive, even for a containee. 3818-A: I shouldn’t be in containment, Doctor. You know that. Dr. Bridge: Well I wouldn’t say I should know that, you’re clearly part of an anomaly. As rough as it is, you’re… 3818-A: … Here. Dr. Bridge: several seconds of silence Dash-A, I’m concerned about your state of mind. Try to rest, you’re clearly stewing in something. Okay? You’re aware you can requisition entertainment material, right? 3818-A: Yeah, of course. I’ll try to find something, Dr. Bridge: Then do so. Just ask the guards, we’ll get it to you. They have a logging system, we won’t miss anything. Ask for anything you like. Other than Internet access. 3818-A: Oh, drat, I hoped to get that first. Dr. Bridge: Mm- hah. Yeah, I’m sorry, you know the process. 3818-A: Yes Doctor. Containment first… It’s frustrating. Dr. Bridge: … Now is there anything you need? Or want to talk about? 3818-A: No, I’ll be okay Doctor. Just take care, okay? Dr. Bridge: Alright, well. Until next time. Interview 5-SCP-3818-A end. + Show Interview 5 - SCP-3818-B - Hide Interview Log. Interview 5-SCP-3818-B [BEGIN LOG - 4:21 PM] Dr. Bridge: Good afternoon Dash-B, you wanted to see me? 3818-B: I did, yeah. Any progress trying to figure out what’s going on here? Dr. Bridge: … No, not yet. No new developments on our end. How are you holding up? 3818-B: Fff… doctor, I swear to god, I have no idea what’s going on here. Dr. Bridge: I didn’t think you wo- 3818-B: Sorry, I’m… Doctor, nothing? The camera thing maybe? Dr. Bridge: You’ve never worked with that, have you? 3818-B: N-no, but it’s… like the only thing I can think of that could explain this bullshit. Dr. Bridge: Mm. You’re anxious, really anxious, aren’t you? 3818-B: … Yeah, sorry. Shouldn’t swear at you- It’s been a week, right? Dr. Bridge: Day eight… You’ve requisitioned some entertainment material, yes? 3818-B: Yeah I have my music and movies and stuff. There’s nothing else to do around here. Dr. Bridge: We can look into more novel entertainment or avenues of expression. If you think that would help. 3818-B: I… I don’t know. It’s like a bad dream Doc. Like… Dr. Bridge: … Go on. 3818-B: Like it’s not getting better. Interview 5-SCP-3818-B end. Dr. Bridge and Dr. Seidelman believe that the above interviews are worthwhile keeping in the main SCP-3818 summary file; further interview logs are available upon request. Follow-Up Summary: SCP-3818-A and -B remain in Euclid class humanoid containment. Both maintain ignorance to the nature of their shared anomaly. Incident Summary - Security Breach ██/██/████:edited On ██/██/████ at 2:17 P.M. local time, a wide-scale breach occurred across Bio-Site 66, causing the accidental release of multiple Euclid class SCP entities. During this time, a number of containment systems, site and SCP surveillance, and backup power systems experienced rolling failures across the Site. The incident lasted for approximately two-and-a-half hours. Of note is that all humanoid containment at Bio-Site 66 failed during this breach; however, humanoid SCP objects other than 3818-A and 3818-B remained within containment, for their own safety. SCP-3818-A and -B are unaccounted for during the entire duration of the breach. During this time, security surveillance was irregular, with camera systems rebooting repeatedly. Due to this, limited visual records exist of the breach. While mostly successful in their efforts, the escaped SCP-████ became especially difficult towards the latter half of the breach and forced the present members of Task Force 066-Beta to scatter. By 5:02 P.M. local time, several Mobile Task Forces arrived at Bio-Site 66 to lend support from other Sites. System functionality was restored and remaining SCP objects were soon returned to containment. At 6:22 P.M. local time, SCP-3818-A and -B were discovered in an unused containment chamber. The designation collars had been damaged and removed from both instances; one instance was found dead, with the other bearing wounds consistent with SCP-████ as well as close-quarters-combat. The remaining instance of SCP-3818 remains in containment; the deceased instance has been given full funerary process, at the behest of Dr. Bridge. The cause of the breach is as of yet unknown. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3818" by Dexanote, from the SCP Wiki. Source: https://scpwiki.com/scp-3818.

SCP-3819	safe	SCP-3819 Item #: SCP-3819 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3819 and a single copy of SCP-3819-1 are to be stored within a secure storage locker at Site-73 and removed only for testing. Testing of any of the 'trials' stipulated in SCP-3819-1 beyond the 'Seventh Trial' is expressly forbidden. Any instances of SCP-3819-1 created during testing of SCP-3819 are to be incinerated once testing concludes. Personnel working with SCP-3819 are subject to surveillance and will be met with disciplinary action if found personally attempting any 'trials' beyond the 'First Trial'. Description: SCP-3819 is a golden box that outwardly resembles a larnax, a type of container used by ancient Aegean civilizations to store human remains. Forensic analysis has concluded SCP-3819 was created in the 20th century using contemporary means. SCP-3819 possesses no anomalous physical properties. When SCP-3819 is opened, a copy of SCP-3819-1 will appear within it. Extensive testing has demonstrated this effect occurs instantaneously, with SCP-3819-1 not existing within the box until it is opened. A copy of SCP-3891 will always appear so long as the box is empty when opened, allowing for the production of theoretically infinite copies. SCP-3819-1 is a standard sheet of modern printer paper with a message typed in Times New Roman font. Every copy of SCP-3819-1 is wholly identical in all properties. SCP-3819-1's text exhibits a minor anomalous effect upon being read or viewed, causing subjects to perceive its text as written in the language they are most fluent in. SCP-3819-1's text details thirteen 'trials' to be completed by the subject in order to have the 'object of their greatest desire' appear within SCP-3819. Only the 'First Trial' is visible on a newly created copy of SCP-3819-1. Upon completion of the 'First Trial' by a subject, text describing the 'Second Trial' will appear below it. This effect will continue with all subsequent 'trials'; once a 'trial' is completed, the text describing the next 'trial' will appear beneath it. SCP-3819-1 has been shown to visibly lengthen as necessary to accommodate the additional text. A copy of SCP-3819-1 will perceive any subject who reads it as a participant in its 'trials', appearing unable to recognize any distinctions between subjects. It will recognize any subject's completion of the latest 'trial' available regardless of individual progress. It has proven able to detect when a subject has completed one of its 'trials' regardless of distance. Testing has confirmed that SCP-3819-1 possesses no cognitohazardous, compulsive, or memetic properties. A transcript of the initial copy of SCP-3819-1 recovered is available below. Hello! If you're reading this, you've been given a rare opportunity, a most rare opportunity indeed! After all, it's not just every day that one is given the means to make their deepest desires come true! Desire, more intoxicating than the finest wine… don't pretend you do not possess it. Everyone wants something, and there is always something that everyone wants more than anything else. Without desire, humanity would not be humanity. Throughout the history of that very same humanity, so very many have sought to fulfill their desires, no matter the sacrifice. Alas, this world is far too cruel, and so very many fall short or are never given the opportunity to begin with. An unfulfilled desire is like a child killed before it can even begin to reach its potential… there is no greater tragedy. This little box will change that. I tell no lies, and make nothing but guarantees. Below my little message here are descriptions of thirteen trials you must take, thirteen trials that will push you to your very limits… but certainly not beyond them. Each and every one of them is more than doable, no matter the world's unfairness. You may see only one now, but once you complete the first, you will understand… and you will understand that I am telling you the truth about what this box offers. If you fulfill the thirteen trials of this box, the object of your deepest desire will appear within it, no matter what it might be. Infinite riches? Infinite happiness? Infinite life? The object of one's desire can be anything and everything, and it can fit within even an box. No matter the depths of your desire, no matter how dark or deep or primal it may be, this box is guaranteed to fulfill it. I swear to you that if you complete these challenges, that which you most desire will be in your grasp, and you will know the height of satisfaction. Shall we begin? The First Trial The First Trial Your first trial really is a simple one… you need only walk a thousand miles. It doesn't matter how long it takes. It doesn't matter where you go. Everything is and always will be up to you. If you are forced to fulfill your desire, it's not fulfilling your desire at all. To pursue one's own desires is the essence of freedom. You can even forget all about this little box as you go on your merry way. You won't forget what happens once you finish. The journey of a thousand miles shall begin with a thousand miles. The Second Trial The Second Trial Well done, so very well done! You have taken the first step on your journey… well, quite a lot more than just a single step. You have proven that you are unwilling to give up on your dreams, that you will at least make an attempt, and that's more meaningful than anything. Now that you've started, now that you've proven something so little yet so big to yourself, you must keep going. The second trial too is quite simple. You need merely climb a mountain. Once again, the choice is yours, and it always will be. Any mountain will do, no matter how small. Small beginnings can lead to greatness, you know. The mountain will be the first of many obstacles, and I know you can conquer it. I absolutely believe in you. Shout out to the world that the height of your desire is greater than any mere mountain! The Third Trial The Third Trial Would you look at that! You have proven yourself more persistent and resilient than those around you! Not just anyone can walk a thousand miles! Not just anyone can climb a mountain! You have conquered the summit; you have conquered the first thing standing in the way of your desire! You can keep going, I know you can! With two trials down already, you must keep going! This third trial will test you in ways you've never been tested before… but I know you can do it. Look at what you've already accomplished. You can do this. For your third trial, you must punch a shark. Brave and clever though you are, I wouldn't be surprised if reading that made you do a double take. I assure you, it's far easier than it sounds, and as always is your choice. Even the smallest of sharks will do. Fish one up or go find a beached one or even boop one on the snout at an aquarium touch pool… it really is quite simple. To punch the selachian menace is show your willingness to fight for your desire, to say "I will punch even a shark to make my dreams come true!" to the world! You can do it! You can do anything it takes, I know it! The Fourth Trial The Fourth Trial You have accomplished it my good friend, you have punched one of the world's most frightening creatures! Very very few can boast of having punched a shark! You have shown the strength of your desire! You have shown what you are willing to do for your desire! We're almost a third of the way to the finish line… I know you can do it. You have the ability to make your desire come true. The fourth trial is another simple one, because you deserve a break after your shark punching. For the fourth trial, you need merely kill an animal. It can be any animal. It can be something as simple as an ant, or you could even go so far as to kill a cute little cat or dog. All you need to do is kill it. It can be painless, of course. You need to be willing to show that you can and will sacrifice for your desire. Besides, it is just an animal after all. Every day you eat the results of slaughtered animals… this one will die for something truly meaningful. This one will die for your desire. The Fifth Trial The Fifth Trial I knew you could do it! I always have had and always will have absolute faith in you! You've come so very far! We're nearly halfway there! It'd really be a shame to stop now, wouldn't it? We mustn't let that animal's sacrifice become meaningless. We shall make sure that it in death it accomplishes so much more than in life… and makes your desire come true. Your fifth trial is quite simple, and surely no challenge at all after what you've faced. You need merely rid yourself of your most prized possession. The choice, as ever, is yours. You can sell it. I know that you even have the resolve to destroy it, if that's what you choose to do. You must be willing to discard what you have now to seize what you might have in the future. You must be willing to proclaim that what you currently treasure is nothing at all compared to the object of your desire! You must get rid of the past and seize a future with your desire with your own two hands! The Sixth Trial The Sixth Trial I knew you would come this far, I knew that someone as strong and as passionate as you would not falter or give up, but even so I am delighted! My expectations were sky high, and you're still performing beyond them! What you've rid yourself of must seem so small now, now that the object of your desire is so very close! It will pave the way for something far far more valuable! Your sixth trial is another easy one, honestly. It's not that I don't believe in you, I promise! I just don't want to make things too hard for you… I don't want to make things unfair for you. You deserve your desire, I know it! For your sixth trial, all you need do is commit a crime. It can be as simple as a misdemeanor or as dramatic and awesome as a felony. You can even do a little jaywalk if you need a break! You must understand that the law serves only to constrain you and confine you, to keep you from your desire. You must learn to break away from its cycle. If the law stands between you and your desire, it is the law that is in the wrong. The Seventh Trial The Seventh Trial I knew you could do it, and I knew you could get away with it! You are not a criminal now, oh no. You are beyond something like evil, for desire is something more pure than it could ever be, and will always be right. Look what you've managed to accomplish, look what you've managed to do! You're more than halfway done! Your desire is nearly within your grasp! You can get it! You will get it! I know that you won't give up now! Your seventh trial is where things start to get hard, but I know that you will manage to do it! No matter the challenge, you have proven that you will rise up to it! You have, can, and will prove your desire will conquer all! For your seventh trial, you will break your own hand. I assure you, it doesn't have to be painful. You may be on all the painkillers you wish. You must be willing to show your resolve. If you can do such a thing to yourself, you can do such a thing to anyone. You can break every obstacle between you and your desire. The Eighth Trial The Eighth Trial Look at this! Look at your resolve! Look at your courage and strength! There is no one else, not a single person in this world, that has come so far for their desire! You are greater than any hero or god! You are so close, I know you can feel it! You musn't stop now! You can't stop now! You have discarded that which you don't need, you have broken yourself for your desire! Your desire cannot be stopped, I am sure of it! It will not be stopped! Your eighth trial is simple, honestly. It is something that one as strong as you can do easily. For your eighth trial, you need merely take the life of another human being. The choice is yours; you are in control. It needn't be someone you know. It needn't be painful. You can pick a criminal, or someone you know who is wasting their life and potential. A life is nothing before your desire. So many lives end in this cruel and unfair world meaninglessly every day. This one shall end for your desire, and finally fulfill its true potential in doing so. The Ninth Trial The Ninth Trial You have proven so much. You are, without a doubt, the single strongest person in this world. Others kill for hatred or money. You kill for the purest of feelings. You kill to make a dream come true that couldn't happen any other way. The person you've used to help you reach your desire will surely rest easy. Their life won't be a waste any longer. They are now part of the path to your desire. The ninth trial is easy. After all, I'm sure killing that person was quite easy. You may have felt bad at the time, misplaced feelings of regret, but you feel better now, don't you? You're so close to your desire after all. For your ninth trial, all you need to do is cut off your broken hand and place it within the box. Easy and even painless, right? It's already useless to you after all. It won't help you attain your desire. Even though it's so easy, there's no one else that would sacrifice their flesh for their desire. Prove what fools they are. If it won't help you attain your desire, it must be discarded. The Tenth Trial The Tenth Trial Look at you! Look at how far you've come! You have shown courage no one else would! You have sacrificed that which cannot be taken back! You can't stop now! You mustn't stop now! Only a mere four trials left, and you've completed nine! Even with but one hand, I know you can achieve it! Your desire is so close to coming to fruition! So very very close! I know I keep repeating myself, but this tenth trial is easy too. After all, you've already rewarded someone by using their life to attain your desire. If you've already sliced off your own flesh, it's child's play to slice off another person's, isn't it? For the tenth trial, you need merely bleed out an acquaintance into the box. Someone that you know the name of. Not even a friend. Not even family. Just someone who's had the good fortune to know who you are and be able to help you attain your desire. Fill the box with their blood until it overflows. It will fuel your desire, and know greater purpose than ever before. The Eleventh Trial The Eleventh Trial We are so close it's unbelievable, but I knew this day would come. I never once lost faith in you. I never once stopped believing in you. You've come farther than anyone else has. The lives you have taken will find greater purpose and meaning than ever before. If they didn't understand as they passed on to a better place, I'm sure they do now. They have aided the greatest and purest thing of all. They have become part of your desire. You mustn't let their sacrifices be in vain. You must keep going. It is your responsibility. It is your destiny. I'm sure you must be annoyed at how often I say it, but the eleventh trial should be easy for you too. After all, what isn't easy before your desire, with what you've accomplished so far? For your eleventh trial, all you have to do is slice open a dear friend. I'm sure it will be easier than cutting off your hand. Slice them open before the box that will give you your desire, and decorate it with the insides of your friend. Their intestines and stomach and lungs and heart will fill the box, and fill your heart, and fulfill your desire. After all, if they are your dear friend, they would want to help you fulfill your desire. The Twelfth Trial The Twelfth Trial We're here. We're on the very cusp, the very precipice. You have done so very well. You have done so very much. You have come so very far. We're nearly at the end now. Envision it in your mind's eye. Envision your desire. It is closer than you can even imagine. You have given so many now greater purpose. You have proven that your desire is stronger than anything else. Your desire will conquer every obstacle. Your desire cannot and will not be stopped. This second to last trial will pave the way for the final trial, and then your longest held desire will come true. For this twelfth trial, all you have to do is offer your family to the box, as many as you can. What do parents exist for if not to grant the wishes of their children? What does a partner exist for if they're not willing to support you? What does a child exist for if not to give their parents meaning? You've sacrificed so much and come so far, you can't stop now. This is your destiny, and your family will help answer it. Offer them to the box, and cut them. Cut them starting at the tips of their toes, and the tips of their fingers, and keep on cutting them. Cut them and cut them and cut them and cut them and cut them and cut them and cut them and cut them and cut them until they're in enough pieces to fit in the box. And as you cut them, smile. You have to reassure them that it's alright, that they are helping to fulfill the most important thing of all, your desire. Smile, because your desire is about to be fulfilled. The Thirteenth Trial The Thirteenth Trial [REDACTED] History: SCP-3819 was recovered from the Texas estate of Jameson Marshall, CEO of the ███████ Corporation. Mr. Marshall held notable public reputation as a philanthropist and historical enthusiast, contributing significant funding to law enforcement and archeological expeditions to Viking and Roman sites. Recovered financial records indicate SCP-3819 was purchased by at private auction, presented to bidders as an authentic larnax. Though no known anomalous activity had been associated with Mr. Marshall prior to the auction, from 4/5/20██ onward, reports of potential domestic altercation, unusual behavior, and missing persons in proximity to the Marshall estate began to be made to local police. Police records indicate these reports were not followed up on for several months, citing that officers were fully occupied with unspecified other investigations. However, on 7/19/20██, officers were dispatched to the Marshall estate in response to a home security alarm being tripped. Upon entering the estate, the officers found ██ corpses arranged in a circle around SCP-3819. All of the corpses had been forcibly contorted into positions unnatural for the human body, and a plurality of the corpses were found to be missing some combination of external or internal anatomy. The deceased were principally found to be from a lower income bracket, many later identified as household employees. The body of Jameson Marshall was found off to the side of the circle, missing a left hand and both feet. While unable to determine the methodology via which his feet had been removed, forensics were able to determine that he had dragged himself away from SCP-3819 afterwards, prior to killing himself with a self inflicted gunshot. The situation was deferred to the Foundation, with agents quickly dispatched to recover SCP-3819, administer amnestics, and develop a suitable cover story. It was discovered shortly after SCP-3819's retrieval that there was a single object within it, with preliminary analysis indicating that the object had spontaneously appeared internally. Though testing negative for any anomalous properties, upon being fed to former food critic D-1780, the object was promptly declared "absolutely the best damn cheeseburger I've ever fucking had holy shit". An autopsy conducted afterwards additionally found that Jameson Marshall had not eaten for several days prior to his death.
SCP-3820	neutralized	SCP-3820 prior to containment. Item #: SCP-3820 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3820 is to be kept in a standard animal containment unit. It is to be provided with an adult diet designated for large breed canines twice daily as well as a constant supply of water. The containment unit is also to be decontaminated daily. A Foundation personnel specializing in canine veterinary is to complete a health inspection on SCP-3820 annually. Description: SCP-3820 is a member of Canis lupus familiaris that is coated entirely in a material similar in texture and appearance to calcite, but is malleable enough to allow for normal movement. Other than the aforementioned anomalous properties, SCP-3820 vaguely resembles and behaves like a 5-year-old, female Golden Retriever. Site-19 security footage of the facility’s lobby has shown the sudden appearance of a bright, blue-colored flash lasting for approximately one second before subsiding, with SCP-3820 manifesting at the center of the flash. Researchers have yet to determine the exact mechanism of SCP-3820's manifestation, or why it appeared at Site-19's lobby. ▶ Incident Log-3820-1 ◀ Collapse Incident Log-3820-1: On 08/08/2017, one month after SCP-3820's manifestation, Site-19 administration staff Harvey Black received a phone call from an unknown Person of Interest concerning SCP-3820. The Internal Investigation Department has failed to identify or trace the caller, as if the call never transpired. The following is a transcript of the conversation between the unknown caller and Black: Black: Hey pal. Been a long day, so keep it short. Caller: Oh, sorry to hear that! We’ll get straight to business then. Is this uh… Site-19? Black: ‘Is this Site-19?’ The hell are you- wait, what’s your ID number? Caller: Uh… sorry, don’t have one since unlike you I don’t work for the Foundation! I’m just calling you about Marbs, my dog? Black activates a silent emergency alert, designating the call to be a potential Level-3 security breach. Black: Hey, hold up, hold up. Before we talk about ‘Marbs’ or whatever… how did you get onto this network? Caller: Oh, got your number in the phone book! Right between Site-██ and Site-██. Black receives a directive from Site-19 Security to continue the conversation with the unknown caller and attempt to acquire as much information as possible. Black: Right, right. So, who are you, really? Caller: Just Marbs’ parent, owner and guardian! And speaking of Marbs, I think she’s registered as number thirty-eight… two-zero in your system? Black: Yeah um… just looked her up. Our file on ‘Marbs’ is a bit scant, so tell me more about her. Caller: Oh, she’s just the sweetest albeit stiffest sentient canine statue ever! Bit quiet and melancholic though. But I’m sure she’s warmed up to you all already! Black: Very cute, very cute. Right, what’s a… ‘sentient canine statue’? Caller: I’m… honestly not sure really! Statue dogs just look so cool and so elegant- uh, okay, maybe Marbs’ an exception. That's why I chose Site-19. I heard you guys are really good with living statues! Black: …What the hell is happening? Oh, uh… how did ‘Marbs’ get here? Caller: Wow, you’re really blasting me with the Q and As today, huh? Uh… it’s something to do with [REDACTED], maybe? Oh, I’m so sorry, I- Black: I haven’t got a clue what you’re on about either. I’m just the… well, guess I’m just the receptionist today. Caller: Yeah, I get you, I so get you- oh! Oh, I’m so sorry, you said to keep it short and now look at what I’ve done! Black: What? Oh, nah, nah, nah, I got time now- Caller: No, that won’t be fair of me, so let’s get back to business! I just wanna let you guys know that I’m picking up Marbs soon, so you all better say your goodbyes to her! Black: The- the hell? Seriously? Caller: Oh, um… sorry, I should also thank you all at Site-19 for taking care of Marbs! And don’t worry, I’ve sorted out payment. Hey, it was fun chatting with you today. Really appreciate you putting up with me! The caller disconnects. Black: …That’s it. I’m transferring to Site-██. One hour after the phone call, SCP-3820 underwent a spontaneous disappearance event. Security footage has shown the appearance of a bright, blue flash, similar to the manifestation event, lasting approximately one second before subsiding and revealing the disappearance of the subject. Replacing SCP-3820 is exactly one kilogram of [DATA EXPUNGED]. As of the compilation of this incident log, the Foundation’s potential use of [DATA EXPUNGED] is still being debated among the O5 Council.
SCP-3821	euclid	SCP-3821 prior to containment Item #: SCP-3821 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3821 shall be kept inside a Secure Storage Vault when not being used to carry out containment procedures. Every three days, an envelope containing a blank letter addressed to the Foundation's front business, "Royal Paper Distributor", will be inserted into SCP-3821. Once the letter has arrived, it is to be disposed of in any manner deemed fit. SCP-3821-1 is to be kept within a 5m x 5m x 3m Humanoid Containment Cell outfitted with a mail chute and Mail sorting unit, and shall be monitored for any abnormal activity. Description: SCP-3821 refers to a standard blue United States Postal Service collection box. Its anomalous effects can be observed when an envelope weighing under 13 oz., containing a letter, and labeled with a valid postage stamp is inserted into the anomaly. After insertion, the envelope will appear at any location it is addressed to, provided it is within the United States, precisely two days later. In the event that the second day falls on a Sunday, the envelope will instead appear the next day. Discovery: SCP-3821's effects were first observed on 5/23/2017 when five envelopes carrying improvised explosive devices detonated in multiple locations across Site-█. Security footage captured two of the envelopes materializing shortly before the detonation. An investigation into the source of the components of the explosives identified the devices' creator to be James Richfield. Interrogations by Foundation officials revealed him to be a member of the Chaos Insurgency, as well as revealing the existence and location of SCP-3821. + Open test log - Close test log Test # Test Description Test Results Test #1 An envelope containing a blank letter and valid postage stamp addressed to Site-█ is inserted into the anomaly. The envelope appears two days later in the cafeteria of Site-█. Test #2 An envelope containing a blank letter and valid postage stamp addressed to a Foundation submarine is inserted into the anomaly. The envelope appears two days later in one of the submarine's wiring panels, subsequently igniting and damaging the vessel's navigation system. Note: From now on, all letters inserted into SCP-3821 should be addressed to a Foundation front business where they will not pose a risk to any important Foundation operating or containment systems. Test #3 An envelope containing a blank letter and valid postage stamp addressed to a Foundation front business in the United States' Eastern Time Zone is inserted into the anomaly on a Thursday at precisely 23:00 Pacific Standard Time. The Envelope arrives at its location the following Monday at 2:00 Eastern Standard Time. Test #4 An envelope addressed to Royal Paper Distributor containing a blank letter, valid postage stamp, and weight weighing in at over 13 oz. is inserted into the anomaly. The envelope disappears from the anomaly, but never arrives at the addressed location. Test #5 An envelope addressed to Royal Paper Distributor containing a blank letter, valid postage stamp, and tracking device is inserted into the anomaly. Envelope immediately appears at an unknown location, later identified to be a sub-level of [REDACTED], and remains there for two days before appearing at the addressed location. SCP-3821-1 Recovery: Shortly after the discoveries of the fifth test, an exploration unit was assembled and sent to investigate the uncovered location. The location was revealed to be an abandoned mailroom containing SCP-3821-1. SCP-3821-1 appeared to be a caucasian male 1.8 meters in height and clad in professional work attire. Upon closer inspection, it was revealed that the figure possessed no facial features besides two humanoid ears. The subject offered no resistance during containment and was relocated to Site-█. After the subject's containment, SCP-3821 temporarily ceased anomalous activity. + Open Incident Log 1A - Close Incident Log 1A SCP-3821-1 was initially unresponsive after containment, moving only when forced to do so. Two days after containment, the subject began moving along the perimeter of the containment cell. Over the next week, the subject increased its activity and Foundation personnel were sent in to interfere when the subject began to attack the walls of its containment cell. Two guards were injured before the subject was successfully subdued. In an attempt to pacify the subject, a mail chute and mail sorting unit were introduced into the containment cell in order to simulate a mailroom environment. The subject continued hostile activity until an envelope was inserted into SCP-3821 and it was discovered that SCP-3821 had resumed anomalous activity, with the envelope now being delivered to SCP-3821-1's containment cell before appearing at the addressed location. After relocating the envelope from the mail chute to the mail sorting unit, SCP-3821-1 ceased all hostile activity and returned to an inactive state.
SCP-3822	esoteric-class	SCP-3822 Object Class Da'aS Elyon1 Special Containment Procedures: Due to the size of SCP-3822, full containment is currently unfeasible. As a result of this, the following measures are to be maintained to ensure the safety of the populations of both Earth and its Moon, with security forces stationed at both SCP-3822-1 instances to ensure their execution: Passengers exiting SCP-3822 will be guided to the nearest SAMD2 by STF Terra-1 (Earthbound Deltas) members. Should nothing be found during the scan, they will be placed in a quarantine cell within the basement of Earth's SCP-3822-1 instance for one week to be monitored and, if needed, treated for any disease they may have contracted on their travels. Should something be found during the scan, the passenger will be apprehended and be placed within a quarantine cell for one week. After exiting quarantine, they will face charges, varying on what was discovered. Description: SCP-3822 is an interplanetary railway constructed by the now defunct IPGA3 in 2196 to help ease transportation to other planets, measuring over 5.37 million light-years in length. The system operated in both the Milky Way and Andromeda Galaxy, acting as a method of intergalactic trade. Since the organization's liquidation in 2235, the railway began exhibiting numerous anomalous properties. Since 2238, those riding on SCP-3822 do not age during their time on the train. Due to this property, numerous people have taken residence within SCP-3822. The IPF,4the successor to the IPGA, who currently manage SCP-3822, is in the process of evicting and punishing those who are living within SCP-3822. SCP-3822 is capable of functioning without any external sources of fuel, preventing it from stopping unless it is turned off. As of this time, the source of its propulsion and energy is unknown. SCP-3822-1 is the designation for the stations which SCP-3822 stops at when reaching a planet or moon that was registered in the IPGA prior to its liquidation. There are anywhere between one and four SCP-3822-1 instances on each registered planet or moon, depending on their size. In the years since, the stations have been renovated multiple times to hold more individuals and have more efficient electrical and plumbing systems, with these modifications being made as technology has progressed. Addendum 3822.1: Experiment Log A series of tests were conducted involving SCP-3822 and its properties. EXPERIMENT OUTCOME NOTES A fresh gala apple was placed in the cabin of SCP-3822. The apple displayed no signs of rot or deterioration after one week. After results were noted, D-356524 was instructed to eat said apple. He displayed no effects from consuming it. A fresh gala apple was placed in the cabin of SCP-3822. The apple displayed no signs of rot or deterioration after several months. Upon being consumed by D-356524, he displayed no effects, but when he exited SCP-3822, he described a "strange" sensation within his stomach. A Gallic rose (Rose gallicanae) was placed in an APCC5 unit located on SCP-3822. After several days without sunlight and water, the rose remained the same, showing no signs of wilting or dying. Within 3 hours of exiting SCP-3822, the rose wilted and died. A four-month-old Eastern cottontail rabbit (Sylvilagus floridanus) was placed in an APCC unit located on SCP-3822. After several weeks, it displayed no signs of aging or disease. After exiting SCP-3822, the rabbit was noted to be more susceptible to disease, contracting Pasteurellosis and Myxomatosis. Its lifespan was not noticeably affected. A member of the species Homo evelerre6 captured during a raid on a illegal planetary refugee camp in the Sahara Desert was placed in an APCC located on SCP-3822. (Experiment still in progress) (Experiment still in progress) Following the events of Addendum 3822.2, plans for testing the effects of SCP-3822 on human passengers have been indefinitely placed on hold. Addendum 3822.2: Incident Log On December 7th, 2238, an incident involving Robert Bryson, a civilian who formerly resided on SCP-3822, occurred. The following is a log of surveillance camera footage taken from SCP-3822. <BEGIN LOG> An unknown passenger walks into one of SCP-3822's carts at the SCP-3822-1 instance on Mars. All the seats are full. Robert Bryson is noted to be taking up two seats while laying down. Onyx approaches him. Unknown passenger: Excuse me, but can you maybe move? There's no other s- Robert Bryson sits down on one seat, leaving the other open, without looking from his phone. Unknown passenger: Thanks. Several minutes pass. The unknown passenger examines the phone in Robert's hands. Unknown passenger: I'm sorry, but is that the actual iPhone 32? Do you know how rare those are? Robert turns and stares at the unknown passenger. Robert Bryson: What's an…cough "iPhone"? Unknown passenger: Are you not from Earth? Robert Bryson: No. My parents are. Unknown passenger: Never mind then. Where'd you find it? Robert Bryson: Does it really matter? Unknown passenger: To me, yes, it does. Robert examines the phone in his hands. Robert Bryson: Why? Unknown passenger: I'm an archaeologist. That right there is almost 100 years old. It belongs in a museum. Robert Bryson: It's mine. Unknown passenger: Where'd you get it? Robert Bryson: Can you please leave me… cough alone. Several minutes pass. Onyx shifts in his chair. Unknown passenger: Sorry. For bothering you. Robert Bryson: Don't be. It's fine. Unknown passenger: No, no, it's my fault. Onyx extends his hand towards Robert. Robert shakes it. Onyx: My name's Onyx. Robert Bryson: I'm Robert. Onyx is a badass name. Onyx: Is it? My parents named me after some prehistoric bat. They didn't even spell it right. Robert Bryson: Still a cough badass name. They both laugh. Onyx: Nice to meet you. Robert Bryson: Ditto. Onyx: So… where are you headed? Robert hesitates for a moment. Robert Bryson: Everywhere yet nowhere. Onyx: … Robert Bryson: I live on the train. Onyx: Oh. Ok. The MLPAS7 beeps. MLPAS Announcer: We will be arriving at the planet of Mars shortly. Several minutes pass. Robert Bryson: I know what you're thinking. Onyx: Huh? Robert Bryson: That a businessman like yourself should not be speaking to someone like me, someone who can't provide for himself. Onyx: What? No- Robert Bryson: I get it. It's fine. I'd probably think the same if I was in your position. Onyx opens his mouth to speak, but does not. Several minutes pass. Onyx again shifts uneasily in his seat. Onyx: If you don't mind me asking, why are you here. I mean, what led to you being in… this situation? Robert Bryson: Cowardice and - Robert coughs multiple times. Robert Bryson: greed. The two flaws of mankind. I was once an ambitious man, like cough yourself. I lusted for power. Hungered for it. Ran a company on Titan long ago. I was constantly trying to find ways to grow it, experimenting with the anomalous, digging in places I shouldn't have, until the shovel finally hit a pipe and burst. Everything else came too fast: controversy, defamation, corruption, betrayal… murder, next thing you know I'm here. Hiding away, cough repenting. Onyx: What are you afraid of then? Robert Bryson: Myself. Onyx: … Why? Robert Bryson: I… don't know. I'm just afraid that…. that I'll… never mind. I don't mean to vent at you. Onyx: No it's… okay. Sometimes you just have to let it all go. We're all afraid of something. The MLPAS beeps. MLPAS: Now arriving on Mars. Please stand clear of the gates. Several minutes pass. Onyx is visibly zoned out. Robert Bryson:I lied. Onyx flinches. Onyx: Hmm? Robert Bryson: I lied. Onyx: About what? To m- Robert Bryson: I'm not afraid of myself. I'm afraid of death. That's why I'm here. Not because I'm hiding away. Because I'm a cough coward. Onyx: Well, exactly how long have you been here? Robert Bryson: Months. Years. I've lost track of time. I know what I'm doing is illegal, but what else do you want me to do? Sit around and wait for me to cough die? Then what? What happens after? Onyx pauses for a moment, with a confused expression. Onyx: I… don't know. Robert Bryson: Outside this train, there are timers above everyone's heads. Tick, tick, ticking away. Waiting until they can drown their next victim. I don't want to be a victim. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. Robert brings both of his hands through his hair and then puts his face in them. Onyx stares at the floor for several moments. Onyx: Don't you ever want to be at peace? Robert looks at Onyx with a confused expression. Robert Bryson: I don't follow. Onyx: Hmm. How do I explain th- Oh. Onyx clears his throat. Onyx: "We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, but to create something that will." That's a quote my mother told me before she passed. Dying isn't about who you were or the power you had. It's about what you've left behind. If you don't die, you can never have the peace of knowing that you did something, anything, with your life. What happens after is peace. Robert stares blankly at Onyx. Onyx: I'll ask again. Don't you ever want to be at peace? To know that you've accomplished something before you pass on. Robert Bryson: … Yes. Onyx: Good. Now I think it's time you face your fear. Robert Bryson: Sorry, but wha- Onyx: Shhh. You'll see. MLPAS: We will shortly be arriving on Earth. Several minutes pass. Robert Bryson: Thank you. Thank you for this. Onyx: No problem. Y'know you aren't the only one keeping secrets here. Robert Bryson: Huh? Onyx: I've known why you were here since the beginning. Robert Bryson: Are you… what? Onyx: Robert, I understand how loss can cause people do to… questionable things. I'm not here to apprehend you. I'm here to help you. To "heal" you. Robert stands up. Robert Bryson: I don't understand… why? Onyx: Because you're you. You're special, even if you might not know it. Robert Bryson: What? How do yo- Onyx: Don't worry, your secret's safe with us. Robert stares an Onyx for several moments with a confused and shocked expression. Onyx: Now are you ready or not? Robert Bryson: I… I am… Yes, I am. Onyx: Was that hesitation I heard? Robert Bryson: I'm ready. MLPAS: Now arriving on Earth. Please stand clear of the gates. Onyx: That's our cue. Onyx stands up from his chair. He gestures at the doors to Robert. Robert stares at them with a bleak expression. Onyx: Trust me, it's ok to feel scared, but I know you can do it. Robert takes a deep breath. SCP-3822's doors open and several other passengers in the cart leave. He stares at it for several moments before walking towards it. He hesitantly steps out of the cart and into Earth's SCP-3822-1 and turns around to look at Onyx, who is no longer there. Robert Bryson: … Onyx? Robert's body suddenly begins to rot, starting as his foot. He looks down at his feet. Civilians around him begin to scream and stare at him. Robert Bryson: Fuck. No, no, no, no, no- Robert's skin begins to pale, and he begins becoming thinner. Eventually, his skin begins to flake and disintegrate, while Robert's teeth have notably more stains on them. Within several minutes, Robert's cadaver has entirely decomposed. <END LOG> Investigation into the identity of "Onyx" is ongoing.8 Usage of SCP-3822 on Earth has been prohibited until it is confirmed it is safe to use through testing.

Should nothing be found during the scan, they will be placed in a quarantine cell within the basement of Earth's SCP-3822-1 instance for one week to be monitored and, if needed, treated for any disease they may have contracted on their travels. Should something be found during the scan, the passenger will be apprehended and be placed within a quarantine cell for one week. After exiting quarantine, they will face charges, varying on what was discovered. Description: SCP-3822 is an interplanetary railway constructed by the now defunct IPGA3 in 2196 to help ease transportation to other planets, measuring over 5.37 million light-years in length. The system operated in both the Milky Way and Andromeda Galaxy, acting as a method of intergalactic trade. Since the organization's liquidation in 2235, the railway began exhibiting numerous anomalous properties. Since 2238, those riding on SCP-3822 do not age during their time on the train. Due to this property, numerous people have taken residence within SCP-3822. The IPF,4the successor to the IPGA, who currently manage SCP-3822, is in the process of evicting and punishing those who are living within SCP-3822. SCP-3822 is capable of functioning without any external sources of fuel, preventing it from stopping unless it is turned off. As of this time, the source of its propulsion and energy is unknown. SCP-3822-1 is the designation for the stations which SCP-3822 stops at when reaching a planet or moon that was registered in the IPGA prior to its liquidation. There are anywhere between one and four SCP-3822-1 instances on each registered planet or moon, depending on their size. In the years since, the stations have been renovated multiple times to hold more individuals and have more efficient electrical and plumbing systems, with these modifications being made as technology has progressed. Addendum 3822.1: Experiment Log A series of tests were conducted involving SCP-3822 and its properties. EXPERIMENT OUTCOME NOTES A fresh gala apple was placed in the cabin of SCP-3822. The apple displayed no signs of rot or deterioration after one week. After results were noted, D-356524 was instructed to eat said apple. He displayed no effects from consuming it. A fresh gala apple was placed in the cabin of SCP-3822. The apple displayed no signs of rot or deterioration after several months. Upon being consumed by D-356524, he displayed no effects, but when he exited SCP-3822, he described a "strange" sensation within his stomach. A Gallic rose (Rose gallicanae) was placed in an APCC5 unit located on SCP-3822. After several days without sunlight and water, the rose remained the same, showing no signs of wilting or dying. Within 3 hours of exiting SCP-3822, the rose wilted and died. A four-month-old Eastern cottontail rabbit (Sylvilagus floridanus) was placed in an APCC unit located on SCP-3822. After several weeks, it displayed no signs of aging or disease. After exiting SCP-3822, the rabbit was noted to be more susceptible to disease, contracting Pasteurellosis and Myxomatosis. Its lifespan was not noticeably affected. A member of the species Homo evelerre6 captured during a raid on a illegal planetary refugee camp in the Sahara Desert was placed in an APCC located on SCP-3822. (Experiment still in progress) (Experiment still in progress) Following the events of Addendum 3822.2, plans for testing the effects of SCP-3822 on human passengers have been indefinitely placed on hold. Addendum 3822.2: Incident Log On December 7th, 2238, an incident involving Robert Bryson, a civilian who formerly resided on SCP-3822, occurred. The following is a log of surveillance camera footage taken from SCP-3822. <BEGIN LOG> An unknown passenger walks into one of SCP-3822's carts at the SCP-3822-1 instance on Mars. All the seats are full. Robert Bryson is noted to be taking up two seats while laying down. Onyx approaches him. Unknown passenger: Excuse me, but can you maybe move? There's no other s- Robert Bryson sits down on one seat, leaving the other open, without looking from his phone. Unknown passenger: Thanks. Several minutes pass. The unknown passenger examines the phone in Robert's hands. Unknown passenger: I'm sorry, but is that the actual iPhone 32? Do you know how rare those are? Robert turns and stares at the unknown passenger. Robert Bryson: What's an…cough "iPhone"? Unknown passenger: Are you not from Earth? Robert Bryson: No. My parents are. Unknown passenger: Never mind then. Where'd you find it? Robert Bryson: Does it really matter? Unknown passenger: To me, yes, it does. Robert examines the phone in his hands. Robert Bryson: Why? Unknown passenger: I'm an archaeologist. That right there is almost 100 years old. It belongs in a museum. Robert Bryson: It's mine. Unknown passenger: Where'd you get it? Robert Bryson: Can you please leave me… cough alone. Several minutes pass. Onyx shifts in his chair. Unknown passenger: Sorry. For bothering you. Robert Bryson: Don't be. It's fine. Unknown passenger: No, no, it's my fault. Onyx extends his hand towards Robert. Robert shakes it. Onyx: My name's Onyx. Robert Bryson: I'm Robert. Onyx is a badass name. Onyx: Is it? My parents named me after some prehistoric bat. They didn't even spell it right. Robert Bryson: Still a cough badass name. They both laugh. Onyx: Nice to meet you. Robert Bryson: Ditto. Onyx: So… where are you headed? Robert hesitates for a moment. Robert Bryson: Everywhere yet nowhere. Onyx: … Robert Bryson: I live on the train. Onyx: Oh. Ok. The MLPAS7 beeps. MLPAS Announcer: We will be arriving at the planet of Mars shortly. Several minutes pass. Robert Bryson: I know what you're thinking. Onyx: Huh? Robert Bryson: That a businessman like yourself should not be speaking to someone like me, someone who can't provide for himself. Onyx: What? No- Robert Bryson: I get it. It's fine. I'd probably think the same if I was in your position. Onyx opens his mouth to speak, but does not. Several minutes pass. Onyx again shifts uneasily in his seat. Onyx: If you don't mind me asking, why are you here. I mean, what led to you being in… this situation? Robert Bryson: Cowardice and - Robert coughs multiple times. Robert Bryson: greed. The two flaws of mankind. I was once an ambitious man, like cough yourself. I lusted for power. Hungered for it. Ran a company on Titan long ago. I was constantly trying to find ways to grow it, experimenting with the anomalous, digging in places I shouldn't have, until the shovel finally hit a pipe and burst. Everything else came too fast: controversy, defamation, corruption, betrayal… murder, next thing you know I'm here. Hiding away, cough repenting. Onyx: What are you afraid of then? Robert Bryson: Myself. Onyx: … Why? Robert Bryson: I… don't know. I'm just afraid that…. that I'll… never mind. I don't mean to vent at you. Onyx: No it's… okay. Sometimes you just have to let it all go. We're all afraid of something. The MLPAS beeps. MLPAS: Now arriving on Mars. Please stand clear of the gates. Several minutes pass. Onyx is visibly zoned out. Robert Bryson:I lied. Onyx flinches. Onyx: Hmm? Robert Bryson: I lied. Onyx: About what? To m- Robert Bryson: I'm not afraid of myself. I'm afraid of death. That's why I'm here. Not because I'm hiding away. Because I'm a cough coward. Onyx: Well, exactly how long have you been here? Robert Bryson: Months. Years. I've lost track of time. I know what I'm doing is illegal, but what else do you want me to do? Sit around and wait for me to cough die? Then what? What happens after? Onyx pauses for a moment, with a confused expression. Onyx: I… don't know. Robert Bryson: Outside this train, there are timers above everyone's heads. Tick, tick, ticking away. Waiting until they can drown their next victim. I don't want to be a victim. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. Robert brings both of his hands through his hair and then puts his face in them. Onyx stares at the floor for several moments. Onyx: Don't you ever want to be at peace? Robert looks at Onyx with a confused expression. Robert Bryson: I don't follow. Onyx: Hmm. How do I explain th- Oh. Onyx clears his throat. Onyx: "We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, but to create something that will." That's a quote my mother told me before she passed. Dying isn't about who you were or the power you had. It's about what you've left behind. If you don't die, you can never have the peace of knowing that you did something, anything, with your life. What happens after is peace. Robert stares blankly at Onyx. Onyx: I'll ask again. Don't you ever want to be at peace? To know that you've accomplished something before you pass on. Robert Bryson: … Yes. Onyx: Good. Now I think it's time you face your fear. Robert Bryson: Sorry, but wha- Onyx: Shhh. You'll see. MLPAS: We will shortly be arriving on Earth. Several minutes pass. Robert Bryson: Thank you. Thank you for this. Onyx: No problem. Y'know you aren't the only one keeping secrets here. Robert Bryson: Huh? Onyx: I've known why you were here since the beginning. Robert Bryson: Are you… what? Onyx: Robert, I understand how loss can cause people do to… questionable things. I'm not here to apprehend you. I'm here to help you. To "heal" you. Robert stands up. Robert Bryson: I don't understand… why? Onyx: Because you're you. You're special, even if you might not know it. Robert Bryson: What? How do yo- Onyx: Don't worry, your secret's safe with us. Robert stares an Onyx for several moments with a confused and shocked expression. Onyx: Now are you ready or not? Robert Bryson: I… I am… Yes, I am. Onyx: Was that hesitation I heard? Robert Bryson: I'm ready. MLPAS: Now arriving on Earth. Please stand clear of the gates. Onyx: That's our cue. Onyx stands up from his chair. He gestures at the doors to Robert. Robert stares at them with a bleak expression. Onyx: Trust me, it's ok to feel scared, but I know you can do it. Robert takes a deep breath. SCP-3822's doors open and several other passengers in the cart leave. He stares at it for several moments before walking towards it. He hesitantly steps out of the cart and into Earth's SCP-3822-1 and turns around to look at Onyx, who is no longer there. Robert Bryson: … Onyx? Robert's body suddenly begins to rot, starting as his foot. He looks down at his feet. Civilians around him begin to scream and stare at him. Robert Bryson: Fuck. No, no, no, no, no- Robert's skin begins to pale, and he begins becoming thinner. Eventually, his skin begins to flake and disintegrate, while Robert's teeth have notably more stains on them. Within several minutes, Robert's cadaver has entirely decomposed. <END LOG> Investigation into the identity of "Onyx" is ongoing.8 Usage of SCP-3822 on Earth has been prohibited until it is confirmed it is safe to use through testing.

SCP-3823	safe	Item #: SCP-3823 Special Containment Procedures: The walking trail leading to SCP-3823's designated containment area is to be covertly closed off every Tuesday night, starting at 8 PM and ending once the SCP-3823 event has concluded. The cover for this closing must vary for each individual event and are not to be repeated for at least 3 months to ensure a lack of suspicion. 6 Foundation agents are to be posted in the area surrounding SCP-3823 at all times under the guise of local workers. Any attempts to remove SCP-3823 from its wire by non-authorized or civilian personnel are to be immediately stopped and the perpetrator(s) detained. Every SCP-3823 event is to be overseen by the posted Foundation agents and should be kept as quiet as possible. The agents are encouraged to bring a varied selection of music to each event, however this is not necessary. A questionnaire session must be scheduled with SCP-3823 itself at least one week in advance and should not begin without warning during an otherwise normal SCP-3823 event. Description: SCP-3823 are two pairs of shoes currently located in St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada, tied by their laces to a power line running near a forest trail. In most circumstances, SCP-3823 is completely inert and are mundane. They can be removed from the wire and worn without any issue and bear no distinguishing marks. Standard brand logos are present on SCP-3823, one pair (SCP-3823-1) bearing the logo associated with "Nike" and the other (SCP-3823-2) bearing that of its subsidiary company "Converse". SCP-3823 cannot be removed from the area in order to stop SCP-3823 events, as new pairs of shoes bearing identical properties will emerge from within the nearby forest and initiate a SCP-3823 event instead. The only time that SCP-3823 displays any anomalous property is at exactly 8:30 PM every Tuesday. Both pairs of SCP-3823 will spontaneously untie themselves from the cable and slowly descend to the ground, where they will then begin to shift and twist in place. After what is usually 10-15 seconds, both SCP-3823 instances will begin to move across the ground. The movements made by SCP-3823 have been noted to be similar to various styles of dance. This varies by each occurrence, but every event so far has primarily focused on dances that typically involve two participants. SCP-3823 will continue to "dance" for upwards of 4 hours, changing style periodically, before stopping in place. Both instances of SCP-3823 will then slowly rise back into the air, tie themselves around the wire again, and return to their inert state. This process in its entirety is considered the standard "SCP-3823 event". At this time, it is considered impossible to truly "halt" a SCP-3823 event, though it is possible to alter the course and prolong one (see addendum SCP-3823.1). Attempts to stop the motion of SCP-3823 have all been unsuccessful and should not be carried out as of 28/06/2017. Addendum - SCP-3823.1: On 13/6/2017, a notable deviation in an otherwise standard SCP-3823 event occurred due to the accidental actions of one of the designated overseeing agents. The agent's cell phone had been called by one of their friends, causing their ringtone (an excerpt from the opening of Bound 2 by American hip-hop artist Kanye West) to play loudly. SCP-3823 immediately stopped mid-"dance" and turned to the agent, staying still for a minute before hesitantly returning to their regular function without further deviation. This was the first noted instance of any audio disturbances being noticed by SCP-3823, as agents in the area had previously spoken on several occasions without any such issue. It was theorized, and subsequently confirmed, that SCP-3823 is only capable of hearing audio recordings. This was proven when, during the next SCP-3823 event, one of the posted agents played several songs over a small battery-powered Bluetooth speaker. After several minutes of inactivity, SCP-3823 returned to dancing, now aligned with the rhythm of the music playing. From thereon, it was theorized that SCP-3823 is controlled by a, or several, entities that are currently imperceptible and intangible. This theory was also confirmed when, during the subsequent SCP-3823 event, several varied audio recordings of one of the agents were played in order to question SCP-3823, as described below. SCP-3823.2, Interview. + OPEN LOG. - CLOSE LOG. Interviewer: Agent Jackie Interviewed: SCP-3823/SCP-3823's controlling entities. Date: 27/06/2017 Agent Jackie: Hello. We have been peacefully watching you, or more specifically, your shoes dance for several months now. This is a considerably long story that I'm sure you are skeptical about, but we promise that we only speak the truth. We've noted that you can hear the audio that we play over speakers, but not any other noises from the area, most notably last week when you danced to our selection of music. We would like to ask you a few simple yes or no questions, if that's alright. Click your heels together once for yes, twice for no. Is that alright? Both SCP-3823 instances remain motionless for a few minutes, before slowly touching their respective heels together once. Agent Jackie: Fantastic. First off, we'd like to ask if you guys can see us. Can you? SCP-3823 clicks no. Agent Jackie: Alright. Can you see the speaker this is playing from? SCP-3823 clicks no. Agent Jackie: Do you know what a speaker is? SCP-3823 clicks yes. Agent Jackie: Alright. We can't see you at the moment, only your shoes. We are unsure why. Are you human? SCP-3823 clicks yes. Agent Jackie: Can you see other humans? SCP-3823 clicks yes. Agent Jackie: Are you in St. Johns, Canada? SCP-3823 clicks yes. Agent Jackie: Is today the 27th of June, 2017? SCP-3823 clicks yes. Agent Jackie: Would you mind if we played you music and asked more questions next week? SCP-3823 hesitates, then clicks yes. Agent Jackie: Would you like it if we played music for you right now? SCP-3823 clicks yes. From then, the agents began playing a variety of songs that they had stored on their personal devices. The SCP-3823 event concluded 3 hours later, and both instances of SCP-3823 were noted to have clicked their heels together several times before returning to their wire. After this incident, the Special Containment Procedures of SCP-3823 were officially changed and SCP-3823 was questioned every other week. From this, we know several things regarding SCP-3823. SCP-3823-1 is controlled by a male, and SCP-3823-2 is controlled by a female. Both entities controlling SCP-3823 are regularly human and bear identical biological qualities to our world's humans. SCP-3823's controller entities live in a society identical to our own, both culturally and politically. SCP-3823's controller entities are unsure of why its anomalous properties exist. SCP-3823's controller entities are notably accepting of bizarre circumstances and fully accept the fact that extradimensional entities can only see their shoes. SCP-3823-1's controller entity enjoys hip-hop music and listens to artists identical to our world's. SCP-3823-2's controller entity enjoys independent (indie) rock music and also listens to artists identical to our world's. SCP-3823's controller entities dance at the exact same time every Tuesday night as practice for their professional performances. SCP-3823's controller entities's existence seems to be the only difference between our world and theirs, as no analogue to SCP-3823's controller entities exists in our world. SCP-3823's controller entities are famous in their dimension and have numerous shows booked across several cities in the province. SCP-3823's controller entities dance in the same location primarily due to convenience and enjoyment of the scenery. SCP-3823's controller entities keep their shoes tied around a power wire for a reason currently unknown due to the nature of these questionnaire sessions. They have, however, noted yes to the question "Is it a good reason?" SCP-3823's controller entities would prefer if the Foundation did not disturb their shoes for experimentation as they had previously done numerous times. It is currently unknown why SCP-3823's controller entities's shoes are the only link between this world and theirs. This request has been honored, as SCP-3823 shoes are notably non-anomalous beyond their connection to another dimension of existence and the Foundation already has possession of 3 ex-SCP-3823 pairs of shoes to test on. SCP-3823 cannot see these pairs of shoes, even if they are brought into the area during an active SCP-3823 event. SCP-3823 appreciates the musical accompaniment to their dancing and would prefer if the Foundation continued providing it. SCP-3823's controller entities cannot feel any forces acting upon their shoes. Music played by SCP-3823's controller entities cannot be heard on this end of the "connection". ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3823" by Alabaster-Alabaster, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3824	safe	 close Info X SCP-3824 — Dogpile Author: AlanDaris Jamcon entry for the "Shaggy dog" theme. ~~ More Alan Stuff ~~ SCP-3824 Item #: SCP-3824 Special Containment Procedures: Members of the MTF Omega-21 ("Savage Garden") disguised as the local park rangers are tasked with monitoring the area around SCP-3824 and suppressing the public knowledge regarding its anomalous properties. All subjects experiencing SCP-3824's effect are to be misinformed or, if deemed necessary, administered Class-A amnestic. Any subject describing such symptoms as a minor pain in various body parts or obsessive thoughts related to barking after entering SCP-3824 is to be moved to the nearest Foundation facility for further study. Description: SCP-3824 is an area measuring approximately 40 m², located within a park in the town of ████████, Oregon. Upon entering SCP-3824, an individual will be subjected to a minor mind-affecting phenomenon and will spontaneously visualize a large number of domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris), hereinafter referred to as SCP-3824-1 instances. Although the visual appearance and breed of the instances vary on a case-by-case basis, most subjects described them as being remarkably small (2-10 cm in length along with the head and body) as well as possessing a large amount of fur. In all situations visualized by subjects, SCP-3824-1 instances were observed to exhibit an ordinary, non-violent behavior and demonstrate a positive attitude towards the subject. Since the initial discovery, only one exception was documented (for more detail, refer to the Addendum 3824.1). SCP-3824's effects will typically cease after approximately ten minutes following the subject exiting its area. If an ordinary canine enters SCP-3824, it will demonstrate aggressive behavior. In most observed cases, canines produced continuous vocalizations until they were removed from the area. Addendum. Experiment Log 3824-C D-1318 was ordered to enter SCP-3824 and remain in the area of its effect for ten minutes. This subject was chosen for the following test due to their history of animal abuse and negative overall attitude towards canines. Upon entering, D-1318 reported experiencing SCP-3824's anomalous effect and reacted aggressively to it. Approximately three minutes later, D-1318 had claimed to experience discomfort due to obsessive thoughts related to canines and barking, as well as a minor pain in different parts of the body. After ten minutes of the experiment, D-1318 was allowed to leave SCP-3824. Following the subject leaving the area, the anomalous effect ceased as normal. Over the course of the next three days, D-1318's mental state had deteriorated dramatically due to constant obsessive thoughts and visualizations related to open wounds and bleeding. Reportedly, in the images visualized by the subject, the amount of blood and the size of wounds had gradually increased over time. D-1318 expired for unknown reasons four days later after the experiment. During the subsequent autopsy, members of the medical team were subjected to a mind-affecting phenomenon similar to that of SCP-3824 and spontaneously visualized a large number of small (2-3 cm in length) organisms visually similar to canines emerging from a human corpse and running away in various directions shortly after. The anomalous effect ceased approximately five minutes later. The autopsy performed following the de-manifestation of anomalous effect showed no internal injuries within D-1318's body. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3824" by AlanDaris, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3825	euclid	Item #: SCP-3825 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3825 is to be contained in the lowest sub-basement level at Site-15, in an enlarged humanoid containment unit. In order to reduce the risk of potential structural damage, SCP-3825 is not to be moved to any area that is not directly supported by solid ground or specially reinforced floors, such as the upper floors of any buildings on-site. Investigation into the whereabouts of PoI-3825-1 are ongoing. If possible, PoI-3825-1 is to be captured and brought to Site-15 for interrogation. Description: SCP-3825 is the collective designation for an adult human male and the mass of inert copies of itself it continually generates. SCP-3825 appears as a conglomeration of adult male human bodies physically merged with one another to form a solid mass of human tissue. Each of these copied bodies is referred to as an instance of SCP-3825-1. SCP-3825-1 physically resembles adult male human bodies, but are inert and show no signs of life functions. At the “front” of this mass is a live human male known as SCP-3825-2, which moves, speaks, and behaves identically to a non-anomalous human. SCP-3825-2 continually and involuntarily generates instances of SCP-3825-1, identical in appearance to SCP-3825-2, that merge into each other to form the bulk of SCP-3825. These copies appear as “freeze-frames” of how SCP-3825-2 was positioned at the time of their generation. Although SCP-3825-1 appear tangible to outside interaction, SCP-3825-2 can physically pass through SCP-3825-1 instances, allowing more instances to be formed “inside” previous instances. This stacking occurs seamlessly, and results in an increased mass density within the overlap. Analysis has determined that each SCP-3825-1 instance manifests for a total of thirty seconds before demanifesting, and as the oldest instance demanifests, a new instance is simultaneously created from SCP-3825-2. SCP-3825-2 generates SCP-3825-1 ten times per second, making the total conglomeration of SCP-3825-1 consist of 300 instances at any given time. Each instance possesses a mass of approximately 85 kilograms, placing the full mass of SCP-3825 at over 25 metric tons. The density of this mass depends on the rate at which SCP-3825-2 changes its geographic location, and can quickly reach structurally hazardous levels when SCP-3825-2 stands still. Recovery: SCP-3825 was discovered in 20██ after several floors of the ████ Laboratory in ████, New York suddenly collapsed, creating a series of holes leading to its basement. Foundation agents embedded in emergency services were some of the first on-scene, and discovered SCP-3825, injured but alive, lying atop a pile of rubble in the basement beneath the collapsed floors. The rubble had been largely crushed into gravel and splinters by SCP-3825’s substantial weight. Civilian first responders were amnesticized, and a cover story about improper adherence to building codes was distributed to the public. + Interview Log 3825-IL-01 - Click to close Interview Log 3825-IL-01 Interview Log 3825-IL-01 Interviewer: Dr. Swicker Interviewed: SCP-3825-2 Date: 09/01/20██ Notes: This interview was conducted one week after SCP-3825’s transport to Site-15, once SCP-3825-2 had recovered from its injuries. <Begin log> Dr. Swicker: Good afternoon, SCP-3825-2. How’s your leg feeling? SCP-3825-2: Not bad, all things considered. I mean, I fell through what, four floors? I guess I’m lucky I’m not a paraplegic. Ribs are still killing me though. Did you guys ever get in touch with my insurance? I dunno if my plan covers… well, whatever you’d call this situation. Swicker: That won’t be necessary. All medical expenses are free of charge while you’re under our jurisdiction. 3825-2: Good, ‘cause I’m pretty broke right now. Do me a favor and tell ████ Labs that if they think they’re sticking me with the repair charges on their building, they can blow me. Tell them to take that up with Arnold. Swicker: Arnold? 3825-2: Yeah, Dr. Arnold ████████. Did I not tell you about him? Maybe that was a fever dream or something. You guys have really powerful morphine. Swicker: I don’t believe you did. Could you explain? 3825-2: Yeah, sure. ████████ was the guy I was interning with, over at ████ Labs. He was a professor at ███, you can probably find him if you look him up. He’s the one to blame for this damn mess. Swicker: Describe the nature of your work as an intern, please. 3825-2: I think my position title would have been something like "lab monkey", meaning any work he had me do probably could have been completed by a trained chimp. A lot of number crunching and simulation-running, really. Wasn't up until the end that he decided I'd make a good test subject. Swicker: And what was it that you and Dr. ████████ were studying? 3825-2: Time travel. Swicker: Time travel? 3825-2: Yep. If it sounds ridiculous, it's because it is. ████████ thought he had discovered a way to conduct honest-to-god time travel. He hired me because I agreed to keep my mouth shut about it, not because of my stellar 2.7 GPA. He was paranoid someone was gonna steal the patent from under his nose. Swicker: Did he ever explain how he intended to accomplish… time travel? 3825-2: He'd lecture me constantly about the "principles" behind it. I hardly ever listened, because he's as interesting as static on TV. The gist of it was that he thought he found a way to send human consciousness backwards along the fourth axis of time. He said our minds travel along this fourth axis, jumping between instants in three-dimensional space. His machine was intended to reverse the vector of this movement. Or something. A pause. SCP-3825-2 scratches its head. 3825-2: It sounds ever stupider saying it out loud. Swicker: And how did this machine work? 3825-2: That, I can't tell you. I never had a real hand in designing or building the thing. That was up to him and the technicians. Swicker: You mentioned earlier that you were selected as a test subject. Tell me about this testing, if you would. 3825-2: There was only ever one test. ████████ asked me if I wanted to be the first to step inside the machine, and I agreed. I figured at worst it'd zap me with some electricity and I could sue for on-the-job injury. He didn't even make me sign a waiver, the dumb bastard. Swicker: Describe that test for me, then. 3825-2: Right, so after a few months of having me plug numbers into AutumnSim, ████████ tells me to step into the chamber for an early test. Thirty seconds back through time. He says that since he was only sending my consciousness back in time, I wouldn't meet my past self and cause the universe to implode or whatever. I'm paraphrasing. Swicker: Understood. Please continue. 3825-2: I get inside the machine, and he tells me "I'll set h to point one, to keep power consumption low." I remember that part clearly. He flipped the switch, there was a bright flash of light, and next thing I knew I was falling through the floor. You know the rest. Swicker: The experiment didn't go as planned, then. 3825-2: I can see why they pay you the big bucks, doc. No, it didn't. I'll chalk that part up to ████████ being an arrogant hack who was in way over his head with this whole project. Speaking of which, you guys ought to track him down so he can get in here and fix me. Swicker: We'll begin the search soon, don't worry. 3825-2: Good. You folks have been pretty cool and all, but I'd like to be able to stand on the second floor without caving it in. And I'll never get a date with this weird flesh-snake dragging behind me. <End log> Following this interview, Dr. Arnold ████████ has been designated PoI-3825-1. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3825" by Freemayne, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3826	euclid	Item #: SCP-3826 Special Containment Procedures: The artificial entrance to SCP-3826 is to be maintained by two concrete walls at least 2 m in length and at least .5 m in thickness. The only authorized personnel to enter SCP-3826 through the airlock are research personnel of level-3 clearance or agents of Mobile Task Force Zeta-9 ("Mole Rats"). Upon exploration, personnel are to wear an actively transmitting earpiece and a pair of artificial surveillance glasses at all times. Mentioning the use of earpieces around the company of instances of SCP-3826-1 is forbidden. Description: SCP-3826 is an isolated civil construct located ~4 km beneath the highest point of the Kenai Mountains in Alaska, United States of America which is able to cause visual and auditory hallucination in human subjects. SCP-3826's area of occupation measures less than 20 km². Inside of this area lies civilization similar to that of European colonization which was commonplace in the late 17th century and a population (~45,000 organisms) of bipedal humanoid entities (hereby deemed instances of SCP-3826-1). Instances of SCP-3826-1 are genetically similar to Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) and have constructed their own cultures, forms of engineering, and an organized civil government. SCP-3826-1's physical appearances include mutation and other physical deformities. SCP-3826-1 instances stand in-between 2.1 m and 4.6 m. The taller instances of SCP-3826-1 have been noted to commonly take the place of defenders and caretakers of other instances of SCP-3826-1. The civilization within SCP-3826 centers around the consistency of a hatred of technology. Instances of SCP-3826-1 will violently attack any individuals who have exhibited using technology developed after the year 1870. Following the attack, SCP-3826-1 will scavenge the technological components and transport them to a location which has yet to be identified by exploration personnel.1 A photo taken within SCP-3826 upon recovery showcasing a large portion of buildings constructed by SCP-3826-1.2 Following the photo, eighteen instances of SCP-3826-1 murdered the three attending Zeta-9 personnel due to their use of modern camera equipment. SCP-3826 functions similar to earlier civilization in terms of governmental constructs. There are established policing forces within SCP-3826, most of them being occupied by the larger instances of SCP-3826-1. These policing forces tend to use brute physical force to enforce the laws bestowed upon SCP-3826. The subject who created the laws and/or the construct that is SCP-3826 remains unidentified. Unidentified symbols (assumed to be related to the occult) are commonly seen in buildings within, roads within, and the walls of SCP-3826. Addenda: The following is a collection of relevant information regarding SCP-3826 including exploration logs, interview logs, and incident logs. Foreword: D-16321 is a female Class-D personnel originally imprisoned for multiple accounts of arson and manslaughter. She was taken into Foundation custody on 8/19/2029. It should be noted that, during this time, artificial surveillance glasses were not in use per SCP-3826's special containment procedures. [BEGIN LOG] D-16321: These stairs go down for a really long way. Researcher Caroll: Please continue down the staircase. D-16321: What the hell is down there anyway? Why do- D-16321 pauses. Fine. D-16321 begins to descend the staircase. Researcher Caroll: Have you seen anything yet, D-16321? D-16321: No, I haven't. It's just hot and gross down here. Researcher Caroll: Continue your descent. D-16321: Seriously, that's an unnecessarily long walk. Researcher Caroll: You are bound to reach the bottom eventually. D-16321: I guess. Five minutes pass. D-16321 is approximately 10 m from the bottom of the stairwell. Vocalizations by SCP-3826-1 are now audible. D-16321: Is this some kind of espion— D-16321 pauses as she looks around, examining SCP-3826. D-16321: [Extended] Holy shit. Researcher Caroll: Now, please report your surroundings only when they are not around. D-16321: "They?" This is some cryptic shit, doc. I don't like it. Researcher Caroll: Again, just follow protocol. D-16321: Yeah, yeah. Researcher Caroll: Is it currently safe to report? D-16321: I guess. I can see a bunch of buildings. The ceiling goes up really high. There's like, uh, a burnt-down church next to me. And there's a path. What is that, gravel? Researcher Caroll: Please continue along the path. D-16321: Uh, alright. Two minutes pass. D-16321: Jesus fucking Chr— SCP-3826-1-A: [Unintelligible] D-16321: What the fuck are you? SCP-3826-1-A: Unresponsive. D-16321: Doc, what do I do? Researcher Caroll: D-16321, I told you not to— SCP-3826-1-B: [Rough translation] Demon! D-16321: Yo, get the fuck back! Researcher Caroll: D-16321, calm— D-16321: Shut the fuck up, doc! You got me into this and I'm getting myself out of it! SCP-3826-1-B: [Unintelligible.] D-16321: You better back the fuck up before you get smacked the fu— SCP-3826-1-C: [Rough translation] Dismantle! D-16321: Get the fuck back, yo. Get the fuck— Researcher Caroll: D-16321? Are you there? [END LOG] Foreword: D-16899 is a male Class-D personnel originally imprisoned for multiple accounts of kidnapping and assault and battery. [BEGIN LOG] D-16899: Hey, doc. Researcher Caroll: Hello. Zeta-9 agents proceed to open SCP-3826's containment airlock. D-16899 steps into the airlock with the door shutting behind him and the door located in front of him opening. Researcher Caroll: Please proceed. D-16899 proceeds down the stairway leading to SCP-3826. D-16899: Fuckin' cold in here, man. Researcher Caroll: Others have said that before, yes. D-16899 remains silent for the majority of the duration of his descent. He is approximately twenty meters from the bottom of the stairwell when he spots a larger instance of SCP-3826-1 located at the bottom. D-16899 takes multiple steps backward while hyperventilating. Researcher Caroll: D-16899, please continue— D-16899: Who is that? What is that? Researcher Caroll: The citizens we have briefed you about. Interact with the citizens and— D-16899: They ain't no fuckin' citizens, doc. Researcher Caroll: …organisms and attempt to survey a large portion of SCP-3826 while you are at it. D-16899: Yeah, yeah, alright. D-16899's heart rate decreases as his breathing stabilizes. He continues down the stairwell, eventually reaching the bottom. Surrounding him is the interior image of SCP-3826 as found in the document. D-16899: What the fuck? Researcher Caroll: Hmm? D-16899: Where did they all go? Researcher Caroll: Let's find out for ourselves. Proceed, explore, and survey SCP-3826. D-16899: Alright, here I go… D-16899 proceeds to walk down the path seemingly paved by instances of SCP-3826-1. He takes multiple turns at random intervals, eventually leading him to a chapel. D-16899: Another church? These fuckers are super religious. Or, I'd assume. Researcher Caroll: D-16899, please enter the chapel. D-16899: …you're kidding. Researcher Caroll: Sorry to say, but I'm not. Enter the chapel. D-16899: Come on, man, I don't want to have to— Researcher Caroll: D-16899, enter the chapel or armed personnel will be sent to retrieve you. D-16899: Alright, fuck. D-16899 opens the double doors located at the chapel's entrance. Approximately forty SCP-3826-1 instances come into view of D-16899's surveillance equipment along with an unidentified humanoid entity. The entity stands significantly shorter than the SCP-3826-1 instances. The entity has the upper section of its body identical to a human female wearing a robe, with the lower section of its body ending in a snake-like body. D-16899: Stuttering, incomprehensible. Unidentified Entity: Are you here to— your clothes. Your clothes, they smell of him! SCP-3826-1 instances stand up from their seats and begin to approach D-16899. D-16899 prematurely turns around and begins to sprint in the direction in which he came from. SCP-3826-1 instances follow at a faster pace. D-16899: Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck— Researcher Caroll: D-16899, ru— Researcher Caroll is interrupted by the sudden drop of his technological equipment. The SCP-3826-1 instances stop their pursuit and the unidentified entity picks up the surveillance tool, holding it close to its face. Unidentified Entity: And don't come back, heretics. [END LOG] Afterword: Agents of Mobile Task Force Zeta-9 were sent to recover the unidentified entity following the incident. The unidentified entity could not be found within SCP-3826. The agents sent on the recovery attempt recalled undergoing visual and auditory hallucinations picturing a gargantuan organism that seemed to lack skin entirely. All agents reported the organism to end its body in multiple "tails" and that the organism's head was shaped extremely similar to that of a squid. The following is an audio log by Researcher Roy Caroll following authorized self-exploration of SCP-3826. [BEGIN LOG] Researcher Caroll: The following is in, uh, regards to my exploration of SCP-3826. Researcher Caroll: They're building a portal. I don't know if that's the best term, but its intent is to open a rift. I don't know where this rift is going, but I've heard plenty of chatter between SCP-3826-1 to realize what the reasoning for construction is. Researcher Caroll: I tried to ask where it was going, and they all responded with the same answer: "the present." The meaning behind this is unknown, but my team of research personnel are currently investigating the possibilities. Researcher Caroll: Only around the portal, hume levels were significantly more erratic than the surrounding areas. We decided it would be best to not use SRAs because it might just contribute to their 'project.' Researcher Caroll: I've also been having nightmares recently. Normally this wouldn't be relevant, but the nightmares contain the exact description of the Zeta-9 agents' hallucinations within SCP-3826. I genuinely do not know who this could be describing, but the presumably-occult-related symbols within SCP-3826 have been— I don't know, bleeding? I only noticed it after the nightmares when I relooked through the footage. Researcher Caroll: Again, this is under investigation. This has been Researcher Roy Caroll, signing off. [END LOG] Addendum 3826-HLELA: On 4/15/2033, all Foundation personnel within ~5 km of SCP-3826 experienced a common hallucination. The following is a report written by Zeta-9 Agent Magubane. Report filed by: Zeta-9 ("Mole Rats") Operative Randy Magubane Access: Level-3, EYES ONLY On April 15, 2033, all research, MTF, and Class-D personnel assigned to SCP-3826 shared a singular auditory and visual hallucination. This hallucination was in regards to Sarkicism and the Grand Karcist Ion, the leader of Sarkicism. The hallucination started with all participating subjects believing they had been transported to an unidentified location. It is to note that this transportation never actually occurred as surveyed through SCP-3826 surveillance tapes. The location in which participants were transported to can only be described as a chapel constructed of fleshy, biological substances. Within the chapel were instances of SCP-3826-1 along with the unidentified entity in 3826-Exploration-2 and Grand Karcist Ion. All individuals were gathered around a statue of Važjuma, the primary Sarkic deity. Upon approaching the gathering, Grand Karcist Ion would approach the Foundation personnel and state the following sentence (broadly gathered from all hallucination witnesses): "Will you see it? Can you? Our Lord, Važjuma, preparing to rise once more. Every piece of salvage could be used to reform Mekhane, and we cannot allow that. We must teleport to His realm, the Present, and assist him in his uprising. We know you can feel Mekhane rising. Jupiter churns as our enemies grow. We have won the war once, and now, it is commencing again. We, His followers, shall uphold our victorious stance not only for this next war but forever on." Following this, no more hallucinations have been witnessed. The location depicted in the hallucination is currently under investigation with the ultimate goal to find the location. Footnotes 1.

SCP-3827	euclid	The shells of two deceased SCP-3827-A instances. Item #: SCP-3827 Special Containment Procedures: Embedded Foundation elements within the film industry are to introduce scenes and motifs featuring teeth into films by major studios intended to become blockbusters, to more easily identify SCP-3827-affected theaters. In the weeks following the release of these films, theaters affected by SCP-3827 are to be pinpointed and closed down, SCP-3827-A instances contained, and affected people amnesticized. SCP-3827-A instances are kept in Standard Containment Cells, and are currently granted spare trash and the privilege to be shown a new film once a month. Description: SCP-3827 is a cognitohazardous phenomenon affecting movie theaters. Patrons who view films within SCP-3827 instances report statistically unusual rates of dental issues, especially gingivitis, pulpitis, and severe degradation of enamel. Consumption of sugary concessions by patrons, or screenings of films with scenes prominently featuring teeth, will lead to more occurrences. The pulps1 of affected teeth (designated SCP-3827-A) will painfully grow in size over a period of about one week, causing the enamel to crack and reform repeatedly. While an affected person is asleep, SCP-3827-A will eject forcefully from the jaws and extrude portions of their blood vessels and nerves through cracks in the enamel to form rudimentary limbs. SCP-3827-A will move itself with these limbs and attempt to leave the location. They will also often steal loose trash, bits of fabric, or small objects such as buttons or pins. Affixing a miniature tracking device to an SCP-3827-A instance led to the discovery of a small crevice outside the theater responsible for the creation of the instance. Exploration of this crevice revealed a structure resembling a small theater, composed mostly of enamel chips, and dozens of SCP-3827-A instances wearing makeshift costumes and reenacting a scene from the then-recent 2012 film Life of Pi. Dozens of instances had intertwined their blood vessels and nerves, linking together to form the stage and various setpieces. SCP-3827-A instances were collected and placed into containment, and current procedures were implemented. Recently, SCP-3827-A instances have begun performing original productions. Addendum: Following successful Foundation interference with the production of the 2015 film Avengers: Age of Ultron2, Foundation agents managed to identify and close down 119 theaters affected by SCP-3827. Despite no new instances having been discovered since, current procedures are to continue until further notice. Footnotes 1. The living centers of teeth 2.

SCP-3828	keter	Item #: SCP-3828 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3828 and all SCP-3828-1 instances are to be observed visually, constantly, to note the formation of any new instances of SCP-3828-1 and the location and health of SCP-3828. MTF-Gamma-81 ("Pinniped Pirates") is to play the part of a scientific research crew, aboard the SCPF Pickup Line icebreaker vessel, with a direct wired video link to the Hermit-1 remote submersible. If SCP-3828 approaches a civilised port or harbour, it is to be gently redirected using reinforced nets to the nearest uninhabited beach. The range that SCP-3828 usually occupies. Description: SCP-3828 is a young male Weddell seal (Latin name Leptonychotes weddellii) currently located in the Arctic sea, specifically in the Fram sea, Lincoln strait, Barents sea, and Greenland sea. The anomalous properties of SCP-3828 continuously manifest in a region within its visual range on any solid object. SCP-3828 is vulnerable to physical harm, but does not appear to age. The social nature and location of SCP-3828 are anomalous; Most Weddell seals are solitary most of the time, and live in the Antarctic, not the Arctic. It is unknown how SCP-3828 got to its current location. An object sighted by SCP-3828 will then be seized by an as-of-yet unbreakable force and held in place; if it is more than the size of an adult Weddell seal (roughly 3.5m3), a mass of that size will be separated from the main mass and then be acted upon by SCP-3828 without further affecting the leftover material (excluding additional iterations of this process). If there is less than approximately 1m3 of material, but there is a similar material nearby, that material will be included in the process. This material is given the designation SCP-3828-1, with existing instances given the designation SCP-3828-1-A through -Z. During this process SCP-3828 appears externally to enter an underwater-sleep state which is usual for seals1, but both hemispheres remain active, with one becoming electrically super-active in a way that typically only occurs during a grand mal attack. This does not harm SCP-3828. Instead, SCP-3828-1 will be physically changed into the shape of a Weddell seal. SCP-3828-1 will then behave as a regular seal would, appearing to hunt and consume fish. This occurs regardless of the material SCP-3828-1 is comprised of, and the material available does not appear to affect the buoyancy or absorbency of SCP-3828-1. SCP-3828-1 instances are usually safe, as they behave as normal seals, despite the fact many instances are biohazardous or much more resilient than a natural seal due to their composition. + Instances of SCP-3828-1. - Instances of SCP-3828-1. Designation Material Notes 3828-1-A A variety of Arctic fish, of differing species' and states of decay. Ceased to animate in incident S1. 3828-1-B Fishhooks and metal shards.

When being formed, the alloy heated up to a point natural for metal being forcefully deformed and compressed by that amount. 3828-1-K2 Steel alloy. Created in incident S1 and later found tangled in a heavy duty electrical fence around Site-256. Inert. Stored in the non-anomalous material storage at site-256. See addendum 1.1. 3828-1-L Industrial strength perspex. Created in incident S1. A single seam-line exists around the entire structure of 3828-1-L, but it is otherwise entirely flawless. 3828-1-M & M2 3 Maximum Strength Suspension Electromagnets each. Partially functional. Created in incident S2. Currently assumed to be the most dangerous instances of SCP-3828-1, but has not displayed violent nor anomalous tendencies. See incident log S2. 3828-1-N Assorted rocks and gravel. Minimum dimensions: 2cm x 3cm x 2cm. Maximum: 30 cm x 23 cm x 10 cm 3828-1-O Sand from the ocean floor. Larger than most other instances. 3828-1-P A single flawless rock. Appears to be igneous in origin, and moulded into shape. 3828-1-Q Fishing nets. When SCP-3828 encounters more fishing nets, they are added to this instance. 1-Q started out hollow, but has become filled out over time. 3828-1-R Unidentified meat; Probably of arctic origin. Rotting in various stages. + Incident Log S1 - Incident Log S1 On ██/██/1966, SCP-3828 (and SCP-3828-1-A through -J) was located by a small tour boat operating from the coast of Northern Ireland. The staff on the boat reported the encounter to a local newspaper, which alerted a nearby Foundation cell. The following is a log of events on the day. 0400: SCP-3828 is located by a Foundation boat sent for that purpose heading towards the Arctic circle. 0415: A Foundation crew contains SCP-3828 and all accompanying instances of SCP-3828-1 (A-J) using a reinforced net; The instances that would be capable of slipping through the net do not, possibly to remain with SCP-3828. 0417: SCP-3828 is brought aboard the boat and placed in a holding tank specifically made for the purpose. The SCP-3828-1 instances are also taken aboard, and stored in similar tanks. Once outside of visual range of SCP-3828, the SCP-3828-1 instances become inanimate and inert, resuming their usual properties based on the materials they were comprised of. 0419: Samples are collected of every instance of SCP-3828-1 and SCP-3828 itself3. A tracker is implanted in SCP-3828 0450: SCP-3828 and the remains of all accompanying SCP-3828-1 instances are taken into Site-256 and placed in standardised steel / perspex aquatic containment rooms. At this point, SCP-3828 has become highly agitated, however, has not manifested any unusual effects, and is assumed to be a regular non-anomalous seal, with the SCP-3828-1 entities being the anomalous articles. 0512: On-site animal behavioural scientist Dr. Carver notes that SCP-3828 shows signs of extreme distress, typical in younger specimens kept without companions or isolated from their group. Conclusion dismissed as insignificant; Dr. Carver was on break at that point, and under review for attempting to access containment procedures in self-admitted leisure time. SCP-3828 thought to be non-anomalous at this time. 0602: Results come back from chemical analysis labs and it is discovered that SCP-3828-1 instances and SCP-3828 are physically non-anomalous. Study shifts to SCP-3828. Testing permissions applied for, but left pending due to low-priority rating. 0635: SCP-3828 enters a pseudo-sleep state. Brain activity is not monitored during this time. Over the course of the next minute, the perspex walls of the containment tank and the steel walls of the chamber itself are seen to buckle and shift into SCP-3828-1 instances. The holes torn in the walls of the chamber cause a Stage 1 lockdown to occur, sealing all sections of Site-256. 0700: Camera footage shows SCP-3828 moving across the floor of a corridor outside of its section, tailed by SCP-3828-1-K and -L. Later, a hole was discovered in the lockdown door of that section of Site-256, explaining how SCP-3828 is seen here. The amount of material taken from the door is roughly 2.5m3 implying that SCP-3828-K is primarily composed of this door. 0703: SCP-3828 is shown in increasing amounts of distress, returning to its now-drained tank and vocalising frequently. Analysis shows SCP-3828 was dehydrated. 0715: SCP-3828 is seen leaving the facility on external CCTV, followed by SCP-3828-K and SCP-3828-L, as well as SCP-3828-K2. SCP-3828-K2 is later found to be restrained by a Foundation perimeter fence. 0800: Lockdown disengaged. No casualties or further breaches. Staff commended for proper use of protocol, excluding those who dismissed the likelihood of SCP-3828 being anomalous. + Incident Log S2 - Incident Log S2 On ██/██/1994, a new experimental SCP restraint system was under testing at Site-256, and SCP-3828 deemed an ideal candidate for the final stages of testing, based on the mistaken assumption that SCP-3828 had to be touching the material that they created SCP-3828-1 instances out of. The experimental restraint system relied on electromagnets powerful enough to influence diamagnetism in the subject, meaning potentially any object made out of atoms could be contained. SCP-3828 was captured easily, with only SCP-3828-1-L and -K in tow. The reasoning for the relative lack of company is unknown; it is hypothesised that formation of new SCP-3828-1 entities takes significant effort on the part of SCP-3828 and is not easily repeated. SCP-3828 was taken back to Site-256, in a larger tank accompanied by SCP-3828-1-L and -K. This was thought to decrease the chances of a breach, by keeping SCP-3828 relatively satisfied, since it is believed that SCP-3828 primarily requires the company of its derivative entities to stay placated. Once in the holding tank, 6 Maximum Strength Suspension Electromagnets were activated facing inwards from all directions, causing SCP-3828 to be restrained from touching the walls of its containment tank, with a relative freedom of movement. However, SCP-3828-1-K rapidly experienced an unforseen ferromagnetic force due to its alloyed composition4, and was pulled towards the wall of the tank, causing that wall section to crack, bend, and leak water. Lockdown was automatically initiated in that section of Site-256 due to a detected breach, causing the magnets to switch to backup power, creating a slight surge in force and fully destroying the wall of the tank. Following this, security logs show SCP-3828 entering the sleep state necessary for formation of new instances of SCP-3828-1 and the magnets in the walls of the tank coming together, until 3 each make up SCP-3828-1-M and -M2. The electromagnets appeared to remain powered, and created an effect around SCP-3828, SCP-3828-1-K, -L, -M, and -M2 that caused all obstacles to be pushed out of the way of their egress. When the group encountered water, a short circuit occurred in -M and -M2 causing complete loss of power to the magnets. However, reactivation events have been logged since, often causing distress to both instances and the remaining SCP-3828-K instance, as well as disrupting observation equipment. There were no casualties or further breaches. The responsible staff on-site were reprimanded and demoted for poor foresight. Testing: As SCP-3828 is currently physically uncontained, testing is difficult. Also, SCP-3828 is not invulnerable or even resistant to damage moreso than a regular seal. Testing with SCP-3213 is pending due to logistical concerns. Addendum 1.1: SCP-3828-1-K2 has been extensively studied to the point of being fully deemed non-anomalous. As a result, permission has been granted to display K2 in the mess hall of Site-256. Employee feedback is strongly positive. Footnotes 1. With one of their brain halves sleeping, they turn until belly-up and slowly descend. 2. A traditional and still in-use seal hunting weapon 3. Available on demand from Site-256 non-anomalous holding lockers 4. SCP-3828-1-K was thought by personnel to be titanium. Relevant personnel were reprimanded and re-briefed. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3828" by samzeman, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3829	keter	Item #: SCP-3829 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3829 is kept sedated within a Standard Humanoid Containment Cell. Once a week, portions of excessively large tumors are to be excised and cryogenically frozen. UPDATE 01/19/2020: SCP-3829 is uncontained following the destruction of Site-172, and is to be neutralized on sight. Description: SCP-3829 is former Site-172 Researcher Zoe Marquez. SCP-3829 suffers from an anomalous form of advanced cancer. Its entire body is covered with constantly growing, extraspacial tumors that extend through four-dimensional space with a total estimated mass above 3 tons. SCP-3829 cannot move its body. Individual cancer cells travel backwards in time upon being destroyed; the first rounds of chemo- and radiotherapy appear to have either accelerated or caused SCP-3829's initial condition. SCP-3829 is resistant to most methods of death, and attempting to euthanize it results in tumors manifesting to prevent the attempt. Lethal injections result in tumors growing around the needle and neutralizing the injected agent, asphyxiation results in the formation of tumors in the lungs that regulate oxygen and carbon dioxide, etc. Following the emergence of SCP-3731, SCP-3829's tumors were harvested in an attempt to weaponize the cells against SCP-3731 mutants. The most successful prototype was the Figueroa-Palanez "LIFELINE" cannon, capable of rapidly inducing modified (non-immortal) tumors in targets within its line of sight up to 1 km. SCP-3829 nearly woke from its sedation during development, and its dosage was slightly increased. The FP-LIFELINE was tested in an initial assault against an SCP-3731 mutant settlement on the outskirts of what was formerly Pahrump. It was setup on a nearby hill while ground forces in combat exoskeletons breached the north wall. During the initial wave of fighting, gravity cannons deployed by the front lines were used to force the mutants in a relatively enclosed area. FP-LIFELINE was then used to pick off mutants; direct hits in the head or center of mass resulted in uncontrollable tumor growth and death within 3 minutes, often causing collateral damage due to the instability of the mutations after death. Deployment of FP-LIFELINE Seismic vibrations and a diamond wall generated by the mutants halted the advance, and one mutant was shot in the leg with the FP-LIFELINE. Due to its mutation, the formation of tumors was greatly slowed. This mutant sacrificed itself and detonated a miniature star to cover the escape of the remaining mutants through a spatial anomaly. At the same time, SCP-3829 abruptly awoke from its sedation; it is hypothesized that blue matter absorbed by the last mutant's cancer cells during the battle retroactively contaminated SCP-3829 and caused it to have previously been infected. The FP-LIFELINE and all other prototypes were ordered destroyed. Upon waking, SCP-3829 was able to stand, and its tumors burst, spawning several dozen new instances of SCP-3829. These instances stormed Site-172, violently ejecting their tumors from their extraspacial origin into ordinary spacetime to deliver massive structural damage to the Site. Terminated SCP-3829 instances folded in on themselves along four-dimensional space and vanished. While the other instances wreaked havoc through the Site, one SCP-3829 instance proceeded to the sublevel and planted 20 large tumors along critical points. These tumors divided and expanded concussively, destabilizing the foundations of the Site and collapsing it. Site-172 was destroyed and SCP-3829 and its duplicates escaped with several SCP items and entities.

SCP-3830	safe	Item #: SCP-3830 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3830 is to be kept in a standard Safe-class storage locker in Site-64. All SCP-3830-2 specimens are to be kept within a specialized D-Class housing block used exclusively for subjects affected by non-lethal anomalous items. Should a non-D-Class Foundation personnel become an instance of SCP-3830-2, they are to be allowed to continue their employment. If the affected subject is currently assigned to an aquatic item, they are to be reassigned immediately (see Addendum 3830-B). Description: SCP-3830 is a crochet doll of red and blue coloration arguably resembling a betta fish (Betta splendens). SCP-3830's anomalous effects manifest upon a subject entering within 1 m of the object. Once in the 1 m radius area, the subject's melatonin production will substantially increase until the subject enters any stage of sleep. Upon entering said stage of sleep (hereby referred to as SCP-3830-1), the subject will experience a dream in which they are a betta fish in a river occupied solely by other betta fish. SCP-3830-1 always occurs in some form of wetland. The subject will remain in their stage of sleep until a fight is lost despite any and all attempts to awaken them. In SCP-3830-1, all betta fish which occupy the same body of water as the affected subject display complex sapience with the ability to speak and comprehend English. The fish exhibit signs of extreme hostility and will commonly engage in vulgar conversation followed by physical combat with other organisms. The physical combat with the fish commonly takes place within one of multiple small boxes consisting solely of kelp and seashells seemingly replicating the appearance of boxing rings. The fights within these boxes are commonly spectated by the other betta. The spectating betta are usually seen with the letters "SFFFC" written on multiple parts of their body. If a betta fish is to engage in combat with the affected subject and "win,"1 the subject will immediately awaken from their stage of sleep showing a complete lack of tiredness. During the subject's state of sleep, they will begin to develop aquatic respiratory organs, or gills (subject is hereby referred to as SCP-3830-2). This development will continue for approximately two hours before they finish manifestation. It is to note that the subject's regular respiratory organs remain alongside the development of the new ones. The gills which have grown on SCP-3830-2 have multiple statements of "SFFFC" written alongside its edges in a style of appearance similar to that of permanent marker. Any and all attempts to remove these markings have met with failure. Addendum 3830-A: The following is an interview between D-3830-5 and Researcher Carl Dailey. [BEGIN LOG] Researcher Dailey: Hello, D-3830-5. D-3830-5: 'Sup. Researcher Dailey: You recently underwent exposure to SCP-3830, correct? D-3830-5: [Points to gills] Uh, yeah. It was one hell of an experience. Researcher Dailey: Can you recall the events of your dream? D-3830-5: Well, sure. Firstly, I realized that I had fins. Fuckin' fins, bro. That's also when I realized that they were the same color as these fish that surrounded me. There were a bunch of them. They were very pretty, but they were assholes. We were in a river or something and they all kept picking fights with each other— oh, can't forget the insulting; there was a lot of that. They were like some WWE wrestlers, fightin' in all of these rings and shit. I'll be honest, I had a hoot watching them. Not fake like the actual WWE. At least, didn't seem like it. Researcher Dailey: Please proceed. D-3830-5: Well, one of 'em decided to pick a fight with me. I wasn't gonna let no fish kick my ass, no fuckin' way. So, I tried to beat that motherfucker. Researcher Dailey: What happened during the fight? D-3830-5: [Hesitantly] The fish kicked my ass— RKO'd me. Researcher Dailey: Can you recall anything happening following the conclusion of the fight? D-3830-5: Yeah, I still heard the motherfucker talkin' shit as my vision started to go black. Researcher Dailey: What did it say? D-3830-5: Yeah, uh— "Get put to sleep by the fishes; you clearly ain't fuckin' tough enough to sleep with the fishes." Researcher Dailey: Thank you for your time. Addendum 3830-B: Recently, SCP-3830-2 instances have reported an extreme desire to visit both rivers and aquariums in an attempt to prove that they are "tough enough to sleep with the fishes." Due to this, SCP-3830-2 instances are not to be within the vicinity of aquatic locations nor objects. Footnotes 1.

SCP-3831	euclid	Documentation of SCP-3831 prior to containment. Item#: SCP-3831 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3831 has been shut off from public access. Any calls made using the phone number ███ ███ ████ are to be tracked and affected subjects taken into Foundation custody. Description: SCP-3831 is a group of public telephones located in Miami, FL. It has been stripped of all furnishings and all wiring has been disconnected. Anomalous phone calls generated at this location cause human subjects who answer them to be treated as though they are "at work". Subjects will begin to be perceived as and treated as an employee of any location they are in that employs workers in some fashion. The content of SCP-3831 calls is a voice demanding that the subject come in to an unspecified workplace. These calls occur primarily during times when subjects have reported being stressed but not distracted. The voice has been reported as sounding authoritative and several affected subjects have described it as sounding like former managers or supervisors. These reports may be influenced by SCP-3831's effect. In all cases, subjects have reported the voice as being highly demanding and aggressive. Regardless of whether the subject answers the call or agrees to the request, they will become affected by SCP-3831. Initially, SCP-3831's effect will manifest itself in varying forms: Increased sensitivity to artificial lighting. Subjects will begin to have intense cravings for soda, tea, coffee and other caffeinated or sugary beverages, despite any previous dietary preferences or restrictions. Pedestrians will enter the subject's vehicle while they are driving it, attempting to have the subject drive them to a desired location. These individuals generally react negatively to refusal. Subjects suffering a medical emergency were treated as medical professionals upon reaching a hospitals or other medical facility. Instead of receiving treatment, subjects would be asked to do complex tasks like a surgical procedure. An affected subject with a garage was subjected to vehicles in need of repair driven onto their property by individuals seeking a professional mechanic. This occurred even though the subject lived alone and had not spoken to any individuals since being affected by SCP-3831. This soon escalates to family members and friends only recognizing the subject as some form of household laborer when entering their home, with most documented humans appearing to lose any interest in SCP-3831 affected subjects despite whatever their previous relationship may have been. At this point, subjects usually become homeless or isolated. Most contained subjects affected by SCP-3831 suffer some degradation of their mental faculties, caused by a combination of prolonged stress and lack of human interaction. All subjects affected by SCP-3831 have been documented to some degree as having slowed perception of the passage of time. Some subjects have been found to integrate into working spaces, sleeping in their workplace at night and avoiding human contact during working hours. It is unknown how many subjects affected by SCP-3831 currently exist outside of containment. SCP-3831 was initially discovered after aberrations were noted in a police record. An SCP-3831 affected subject had begun a lifestyle centered around shoplifting. When confronted by police, if the situation escalated to a crime scene the subject would immediately be treated like a police officer and leave the scene. Class C B A Amnestic treatment has proven ineffective in treating subjects affected by SCP-3831. ♊ PROJECT ESPRESSO ♊ crackers would be nice, you psycho. Several individuals affected by SCP-3831 have been discovered in Foundation facilities. This presents potential for a severe security breach. However, it also presents an opportunity to observe SCP-3831 affected subjects more closely over a longer period of time. If we are to identify and relocate affected individuals to areas of research where they could be isolated and monitored without realizing, it could provide a potential opportunity for more knowledge into how the anomaly operates. [⚠] This project has been suggested by the Ethics Committee for Review.Tagged 08/12/2002 SCP-3831 Effect Documentation. Both experiments and field observations are included in the interest of completion. Testing was done as part of the ongoing Project Espresso. Location Effect Motor Vehicle, On Road When the SCP-3831 affected subject was driving, pedestrians would repeatedly climb into their vehicle, either treating it as public transportation or asking to be taken to a specific location. These subjects would become aggravated when the subject exited the vehicle. Restaurant SCP-3831 affected subject was not served, but instead forcibly moved into the kitchen by the wait staff due to the belief that the subject was a chronically late cook. Subject was not able to obtain a meal. Motor Vehicle, In Garage Subject attempting to repair their vehicle had vehicles in need of repair driven onto their property by individuals seeking a professional mechanic. This occurred even though the subject lived alone and had not spoken to any individuals since being affected by SCP-3831. Factory Individual was discovered inside thresher, operating damaged partions in order to keep it functioning. Upon discovery, floor manager verbally disciplined the subject for not being efficient enough, and a write-up was documented in their records. Fast Food Restaurant Operated drive through, asking persons going through to help them instead of taking their order. Most customers ignored or made comments on being irritated by it while giving their orders. Corporate Office Discovered living inside an unoccupied office, subject had been treated as a "Vice President of Teledirectors". Repeatedly asked about telecommunications project of which the subject had no knowledge. Survived on foodstuffs found within office building. Academic Institution Students would walk up to affected subjects and hand over textbooks, demanding payment in return. Paltry or even non-monetary sums were accepted. Affected subject was also able to ride security golf carts without being questioned. SCP Foundation After the SCP-703 containment breach, several pylons used in construction of its containment apparatus were discovered to be human subjects affected by SCP-3831. This did not play a role in the breach but presents a grave risk to informational and physical security of the Foundation’s staff. It also presents the first time SCP-3831 has fully objectified a subject in terms of serving a function reserved for an inanimate object. A thorough audit of Foundation construction materials and personnel is being undertaken by the ethics committee. Ethics Committee Eyes Only Access Granted If you're reading this, you probably consider yourself loyal enough to the Foundation. They've taken care of you. It might not bother you to know you're affected by 3831. We've never been in short supply of ethically compromised scientists, but how do you think we get our clerks? Administrators and organizers, who keep the day to day mechanism of the Foundation going? Proofreaders? Hundreds like them might pass you in the halls every day. They've always been here. They always will be. Of course, it's not supposed to be in the wild. We used to have real people calling, a phone bank with anomalous handsets. It's an empty room now, somewhere in the bowels of a site. The calls don't seem to care, they keep rolling in and bringing us more people than ever. Dedicated, loyal employees. Why do you think the Foundation has a bejeweled immortal body-hopper running our human resources department? That's the only way we can keep track of who we find and who we're sent. They integrate so quickly. In more ways than one. The Foundation will take care of all of them, in the end. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3831" by Anonymous, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3832	euclid	Item#: 3832 Level1 Secondary Class: none Disruption Class: dark Risk Class: notice link to memo SCP-3832 displaying its typical 'jagged frown.' Item #: SCP-3832 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3832 is to be kept in a standard secure locker at Site-64. A tracking tag has been affixed for ease of recovery during a relocation event. Upon breaching containment, tag monitors are to determine which potential relocation site, and approximately where within said site, SCP-3832 has positioned itself at. The personnel stationed at the corresponding location are to be notified and containment procedures specific to their location are to be enacted. Potential Relocation Site (PRS) PRS Specific Containment Procedures Site-64 Any personnel located near SCP-3832's ambush position are to be notified via intercom and encouraged to secure glasses, held objects and other material before continuing with their activities. Research personnel are to seek out and provoke an attack. Once SCP-3832 is secured in Site-64, it is to be returned to its locker. 6600 N Baltimore Ave, Portland, OR (PRS-Truffle) Personnel are to locate and provoke an attack by SCP-3832 as discreetly as possible. Upon recovery, SCP-3832 is to be packed into a secure container and delivered to Site-64 immediately thereafter, whereupon Site-64 specific containment procedures are to be enacted. 7343 Eldorado Ct, Mclean, VA (PRS-Townhouse) Personnel are to locate and provoke an attack by SCP-3832. Upon recovery, personnel are to physically hold SCP-3832 in place and maintain visual contact of it to hasten a relocation event to either Site-64 or PRS-Truffle, whereupon the appropriate containment procedures are to be followed. Description: SCP-3832 is a queen-sized bed pillow with an attached Post-It®-brand note depicting a crudely drawn face. The face has been observed changing, within the confines of its art style; however, these changes do not deviate dramatically from the default 'jagged frown' expression and tend to be small additions or the alteration of a single aspect, such as the curvature of the mouth. SCP-3832 is stuffed with goose and Grey Duck down feathers and consistently smells, and feels, as though it has been recently infused with scented fabric softener1. SCP-3832 has demonstrated itself to be capable of teleportation, which it uses to breach containment. Relocation events occur randomly, though a higher frequency of relocation has been noted to occur when SCP-3832 is being directly observed. This frequency further increases when SCP-3832 is physically restrained. SCP-3832 has only been observed to be capable of teleportation into the interiors of locations it has previously been in, or near to when not in a sealed container. It is currently unknown what requirements exist to designate a new location as a potential relocation site. Current potential relocation sites are Site-64, PRS-Townhouse (where it was recovered) and PRS-Truffle (see incident 3832-NR1). SCP-3832 cannot relocate consecutively; it must initiate an attack before it can relocate again. Following a relocation event, SCP-3832 is considered to be in an active state. In this state, SCP-3832 will mimic behaviors associated with ambush predators: it will hide itself as best it can (typically in containers or around furniture) and wait for an ambush opportunity to arise. Should an individual come close enough to SCP-3832's position, and there is an unobstructed path between SCP-3832 and its victim, an attack will be triggered. This involves SCP-3832 throwing itself at its victim at low velocities. To date, SCP-3832 has not been observed traveling at speeds capable of directly causing injury, nor at speeds significantly different from those of a human-thrown, non-anomalous pillow. Upon impact with its target, SCP-3832 has been observed to consistently make a "squeak," similar to that of a squeezed dog toy. Following an attack and prior to a relocation event, SCP-3832 is in an inactive state. In this state, it is completely inanimate and can be safely handled as a non-anomalous pillow. The Post-It® note making up SCP-3832’s face is permanently affixed. Although more resistant to tearing than non-anomalous equivalents, attempting to forcibly remove SCP-3832’s face will immediately trigger a relocation event. The current theory is that SCP-3832 is capable and willing to use teleportation as an escape method if it feels threatened. In order to carry out 'facial adhesion' tests and/or other tests which could damage the face, SCP-3832 must first be cleared for potential neutralization. Notable Ambushes Report: SCP-3832 Ambush Location Victim(s) Results Inside the refrigerator inside PRS-Townhouse Field Agent Viola Smythe SCP-3832 impacted with FA Smythe’s face when the refrigerator door was opened. SCP-3832’s resistance to high/low temperatures noted. Above Dr. Prangley's office locker Researcher Franklin Prangley Previously informed of SCP-3832’s general location, Dr. Prangley pushed SCP-3832 off his locker with a meterstick. SCP-3832 landed on the floor before launching itself into Dr. Prangley's lower abdomen. Interaction logged. Behind the coffee machine in the canteen Security Officer Jennifer Blaire SCP-3832 impacted with SO Blaire’s ankle and caused her to spill her coffee. SO Blaire suffered minor 1st degree burns to her wrist and palm. Injury logged. Behind the television in PRS-Townhouse Field Agent Gordon Gompton and Field Agent Viola Smythe After triggering an attack, FA Smythe and FA Gompton apparently began to throw SCP-3832 at each other. According to testimony, SCP-3832 began to make its characteristic squeak with every impact after repeated throwing, and its face had also changed into a significantly happier one. When asked to elaborate, FA Gompton provided a photograph confirming that, during the 'pillow-fight,' SCP-3832's eyebrows had disappeared, and its jagged frown had smoothed out and upturned to resemble a smile. Tests designed to replicate this effect have been unanimously approved by research personnel. Under the desk in Site-64’s Director’s office Site Director Edgar Holman SCP-3832 impacted with Director Holman’s shins. SCP-3832 relocated to PRS-Townhouse before research personnel could arrive for recovery. Interaction logged. Inside SCP-3960’s humanoid containment cell Senior Researcher Adrien Bleikoff SCP-3960-4 was instructed by Agent Beatrice Ross to move SCP-3832 to the center of the cell and maintain physical contact. SCP-3832 remained immobile until Dr. Bleikoff entered for recovery, whereupon it launched itself. Due to 3960-4's hold, however, SCP-3832 could not effectively become airborne and only impacted with Dr. Bleikoff's feet. SCP-3832's characteristic impact squeak was notably lower in pitch and drawn teardrops appeared beneath the face's eyes. Interaction and image evidence logged. Incident 3832-NR1: The following report details the incident which led to the establishment of PRS-Truffle following SCP-3832's relocation into an on-site janitorial closet 2 days afterwards. PRS-Truffle currently operates under Cover Story-07, "Under New Management." Factory floor tours have been prohibited and civilian accessible areas have been deprived of opaque furniture and containers SCP-3832 would use to conceal itself. On 02/14/2017, SCP-3832 relocated into the trunk of Big Sister's2 car while technicians were attempting to fix a glitch with its tracking tag. The car was mobile and departing from Site-64 at the time. Along with SCP-3832's research team, neither Big Sister nor security staff at the gate were aware that SCP-3832 could relocate into mobile containers. Big Sister arrived at PRS-Truffle, St. John’s Chocolate Factory, to pick up a delivery intended for [REDACTED]. Upon opening the trunk to store the box, SCP-3832 launched itself at Big Sister, colliding with the box in her hands, and propelling the tapered tip of the heart-shaped box into her mouth. After storing SCP-3832 into her trunk and recovering both the dropped goods and tooth fragment, Big Sister contacted the Foundation. A recovery team was dispatched and SCP-3832 was recovered without further incident. Camera footage that captured the event was appropriately doctored. Neither parking garage security nor Big Sister were disciplined. During the debriefing with SCP-3832's research team, Big Sister shared a photograph she had taken using her cellphone while waiting for the recovery team. The photo has been logged into SCP-3832's research files and has yet to be reproduced under testing conditions. While SCP-3832 was recovered on-site displaying its typical jagged frown expression, Big Sister's photograph clearly shows that, for a brief time, SCP-3832's expression had significantly changed. In the image, SCP-3832's mouth is upturned into a dimpled smile, and its eyes are drawn to appear as cartoon-like hearts. Footnotes 1. Olfactory tests have detected the scent of jasmine and pear, as well as complementary traces of mandarins and peonies 2. 'Big Sister' refers to a Site-64 document censor and cannot be officially identified for security reasons
SCP-3833	euclid	Nanga Parbat. Item #: SCP-3833 Special Containment Procedures: Site-3833 has been constructed one kilometer below SCP-3833's lower bound to assist in monitoring and containment efforts. No personnel or civilians are allowed to enter SCP-3833, aside from D-class personnel equipped with recording equipment for testing purposes. A no-fly zone is to be enforced around Nanga Parbat under the guise of Standard Cover Story 088 ("Weather Hazard"). Description: SCP-3833 is a rectangular volume of space centered on the summit of Nanga Parbat, a mountain in the Himalayas mountain range. The lower bound of SCP-3833 is approximately six kilometers above sea level, and SCP-3833 is one kilometer in width and length. The upper bound of SCP-3833 is unknown1, but is believed to be between 20 and 30 kilometers above sea level. SCP-3833 plays host to two known anomalous phenomena, designated SCP-3833-1 and SCP-3833-2. SCP-3833-1 is a recurring phenomena where the conditions of Nanga Parbat will become extremely severe. An unusually intense snowstorm signifies the arrival of SCP-3833-1. SCP-3833-1 often involves: The aforementioned snowstorm, described as being strong and very cold. Rock formations becoming increasingly difficult to climb. Equipment failure becoming increasingly common. Areas of the mountain become iced over and hard to navigate. Without intervention from SCP-3833-2, death due to SCP-3833-1 is unavoidable. Circumstances attributable to equipment failure prevent subjects from exiting SCP-3833. None of this anomalous phenomena has been observed by subjects outside of SCP-3833. SCP-3833-1 tends to only affect solo climbers or small groups, though SCP-3833-1 has been known to cause the crashes of commercial airliners flying through SCP-3833 on rare occasions. SCP-3833-1 typically lasts 3 to 6 hours before subsiding. SCP-3833-2 is a cabin located within SCP-3833. Though GPS devices left within SCP-3833-2 do not change location, SCP-3833-2 has not been observed outside of SCP-3833-1 occurrences. SCP-3833-3 is a Caucasian male of Slavic descent who inhabits SCP-3833-2, apparently as its caretaker. In approximately 33% of all SCP-3833-1 occurrences, the subject will find SCP-3833-2. SCP-3833-3 will invite the subject to enter SCP-3833-2. Once they are inside, SCP-3833-3 will coerce the subject into staying in SCP-3833-2 to shelter themselves from SCP-3833-1. Once SCP-3833-1 has subsided, the subject will be given proper equipment to descend Nanga Parbat if their equipment was broken. Discovery: SCP-3833-1 and SCP-3833-2 came to the Foundation's attention after mountain climber Jerry Helder ascended Nanga Parbat and encountered both SCP-3833-1 and SCP-3833-2. Helder posted about this incident on his mountain-climbing blog, where it was flagged by Foundation webcrawler I/O-BLACKLEECH for potential anomalous activity. The blog was seized by Foundation assets and the post was deleted. Addendum 02/01/2018: All attempts to find SCP-3833-2 using long-range surveillance has failed. In all instances, SCP-3833-2 only appears during manifestations of SCP-3833-1. Similarly to SCP-3833-1, SCP-3833-2 is unobservable outside of SCP-3833, making observation outside of SCP-3833 impossible. With authorization from Site Director Graham and Resource Marshall ██████, short-range interaction through D-class personnel has been approved. Fifty D-class personnel of above-average physical health have been allocated to Site-3833 for use in this operation. One group of four D-class personnel is to ascend Nanga Parbat and then descend the mountain. Should they ascend and descend successfully, another group is to ascend the mountain. Should they encounter SCP-3833-1, they are to attempt to find the cliffface where SCP-3833-2 is located. If they find SCP-3833-2, they are to enter and use audiovisual equipment to record interactions with SCP-3833-3. Five groups encountered SCP-3833-1, and only one encountered SCP-3833-2. No further incursions into SCP-3833 are planned. View Attachment: Relevant Audiovisual Excerpts Close File VIDEO TRANSCRIPT <Begin Log> Agent Krunt: Alright boys, recorders are on. For the record, state your names and numbers. D-8990: Marty ███████, D-8990. D-2344: Fredericks ████, D-2344. D-0110: Clyde █████, D-0110. D-5671: Micheal ████, D-5671. Agent Krunt: This is Agent James Krunt of the D-Class management division. I'm about to send these guys up to the peak of the mountain in hopes of encountering SCP-3833-2. We will have sniper rifles trained on them at all times2 to ensure compliance. Do you have anything to say before I send you up? D-2344: I already fucking hate this. Agent Krunt: Great. Well, you know your mission, please begin to ascend the mountain. The groups begins to ascend Nanga Parbat. 15 minutes and 43 seconds of little interaction. D-8990: I think we're outside earshot of Agent Cunt and his minions now. D-0110: Don't call him that! Remember what- D-8990: Yeah, what are they gonna do? Shoot us down for making shitty puns? Fat chance. D-2344: Shut up, Marty. D-8990: Shut the hell up, Fred. The group continues to ascend the mountain, until they reach a very tall cliff-wall. D-0110: Fucking hell, how are we supposed to climb this? Researcher Calvin (Over Radio): You have a winch in your backpack. D-5671: Wait, you're still listening in on us? Researcher Calvin: Affirmative. Pause. D-8990: So, is Agent Cunt there with you? 33 minutes 46 seconds of little interaction. Wind begins to rise in intensity. D-0110: It's getting pretty fucking windy up here. Researcher Calvin: Is it also cloudy? D-2344: Yeah, it's basically overcast. Cloud cover prevents direct observation of the group through satellite telescope. Researcher Calvin: This could be the anomalous storm we're looking for. Remember to keep close to the walls and watch your step, and try to navigate to [REDACTED] D-0110: Got it. 2 minutes 12 seconds of little interaction. The group reaches a relatively flat part of the mountain. D-2344: Stop pushing me around, Marty. D-8990: Wasn't me. The wind pushes D-2344 to the ground, and slides him towards a nearby cliff. D-2344 manages to employ his ice pick, but the end of the pick breaks off, and D-2344 falls into a chasm. Fall is assumed to be fatal. D-8990: Jesus fucking Christ. D-0110: I can swear to god there wasn't a chasm there a second ago. 18 minutes 23 seconds of little interaction, aside from complaints from the group about the environment. D-5671: Fuck, it's getting colder by the minute up here. My coat isn't helping at all. D-0110: The snow's like a spray of fucking bullets. Researcher Calvin: Remember to go to [REDACTED] D-8990: You- Interference with audiovisual equipment makes communication impossible at this point. Signal is not received for fifteen minutes until backup equipment is remotely activated. D-8990: I can't fucking take it anymore. It's too intense. D-0110: Wait, I think I hear something? Analysis of audio at this point has revealed that the sound of a man's voice can be heard through the storm. D-8990: It's coming from over there! The group rounds a corner and discovers a wooden cabin matching descriptions of SCP-3833-2. A man, presumably SCP-3833-3, is standing in front of the door and yelling. SCP-3833-3: Hey! Over here! The group enters SCP-3833-2. SCP-3833-3 closes the door to SCP-3833-2. SCP-3833-3: Welcome to the top of the mountain. Would you like something to drink? D-5671: Fuck yeah. I'm fucking dying from thirst. SCP-3833-3 leads the group over to a set of two worn, red couches and a stone fireplace. SCP-3833-3 then enters a kitchen area to make drinks. The group takes their coats off. D-0110: Damn, these couches are comfy. D-8990: I'm guessing it's just because we're finally out of the fucking cold. D-5671: This reminds me a bit of my grammie's old cabin. I can swear to God she had that exact same painting of a moose… SCP-3833-3 enters the room carrying a tray of four cups of hot chocolate. SCP-3833-3 reacts with shock at a series of dermal abrasions on D-0110's arm and chest. SCP-3833-3 puts the tray down onto a table in between the couches, and the group begins to drink. SCP-3833-3 takes out a metal box underneath one of the couches, and takes out a small, unlabeled bottle of liquid from the box. D-0110: What's that? SCP-3833-3: A bit of medicine for those scars. SCP-3833-3 applies some liquid to his hand and then uses his hand to apply it to D-0110's arms, and a previously unseen set of abrasions on D-0110's chest. SCP-3833-3 then wraps gauze from the box around D-0110's arms. SCP-3833-3: It won't heal right away, but that should take the pain away. Make sure you keep the bandages on. D-0110: Thanks, man. I appreciate it. The group sits in silence for three minutes until they finish their drinks. Personnel at Base Command push the group to ask SCP-3833-3 interview questions. D-8990: So, what's your name? SCP-3833-3: You can call me Russel. D-8990: Alright, Russel, what is this place? SCP-3833-3: It's a cabin I built here a while back. Nothing more. D-8990: Alright. Why is it so damn stormy up here? SCP-3833-3: The higher up you get, the colder it gets. If I'm not mistaken, that's how it works for every mountain. Pause. SCP-3833-3: Did you enjoy your drinks? D-5671: They're great. They taste all sweet and fuzzy. SCP-3833-3: Well, it's getting pretty late now. It is of note that the approximate time was 9:03 PM. SCP-3833-3: You must be tired, after all that's happened today. Would you like to rest? D-0110: Would I? I'd kill for a half-decent cot. SCP-3833-3 stands up. SCP-3833-3: Follow me. SCP-3833-3 leads the group into a hallway adjacent to the living room, and then to a bedroom. The room contains two bunk beds with red comforters covered in blue stars. The walls and ceiling are colored blue, and covered with a white spiral pattern. A window on one wall allows for a view of SCP-3833-1. A spruce dressing stand is pressed against the remaining wall, and has a beige lamp and a blue analog clock resting on it. The group slides into the bunk beds and goes to sleep. Audiovisual equipment is set to deactivate for six hours during night time. The next day, SCP-3833-1 is still in the process of occurring. Personnel stationed at Site-3833 confirms the precense of SCP-3833-1. This means that SCP-3833-1 has been occurring for 9 hours, making it the longest occurrence of SCP-3833-1 to date. After a short period of time, the group leaves the bedroom to find SCP-3833-3 in the living room, staring out the window. SCP-3833-3: The storm doesn't usually last this long. I don't think you'll be able to go out, so I guess you'll have to stay here. D-0110: That sucks. SCP-3833-3: Hey, it's not all bad. I'm making muffins, do you want any? Once the group finishes eating breakfast, they begin to play board games such as checkers and chess by SCP-3833-3's suggestion. Little interaction is recorded during this period. D-8990: Hey, do you have cable up here? SCP-3833-3: Unfortunately, no. It does get lonely up here, but I doubt anyone would be able to run a cable up here. D-8990: I think we're missing the Super Bowl up here. D-5671: Oh crap, you're right! D-0110: Which teams are playing again? 89 minutes and 45 seconds of little interaction. D-0110: And… checkmate. D-5671: God damn it. D-5671 walks up to SCP-3833-3, who is working in the kitchen. D-5671: Russel, do you have any other games? I swear to God, if I lose another game of chess to Clyde I'll throw myself out the window into the damn storm. SCP-3833-3: Well, I do have something else… The group sets up a game of Dungeons & Dragons. They play for 164 minutes and 33 seconds without interruption. D-5671: I take out my sword and fight the elf. SCP-3833-3: Alright, then roll initiative. The group rolls twenty-sided dies. D-0110: Fuck yeah! D-8990: Another fucking natural twenty? I swear to God, Clyde, what are you? D-0110: Jackson Evergreen, level two Ranger, warrior of Neverwinter, and soon-to-be killer of elves. SCP-3833-3: Alright, you get to go first, Clyde. D-0110: I peg 'im between the eyes with my crossbow. D-0110 rolls a die. SCP-3833-3: You miss. It's now the elf's turn. He casts Eldritch Blast on Crogon- D-8990: Fuck me, another sorcerer? SCP-3833-3: It's Micheal's turn, now. D-5671: I walk up and stab the fucker in the neck. D-0110: Damn, in the neck? We gotta catch this guy for information! SCP-3833-3: You're almost as cruel as the mountain, Micheal! Pause. SCP-3833-3: Anyways, roll for damage. The group continues to play Dungeons & Dragons for a while longer, before stopping and sharing personal stories. D-5671: …and then I got the fuck out of the stairwell before the creep got me. Then I got transferred to here, and I had to climb this damn mountain. That's my story. D-0110: Alright, Russel, it looks like it's your turn. SCP-3833-3: Well, all of you have so many interesting stories, and I'm sorry for being so dull. I was born in Kaliningrad half a century ago. I had a relatively quiet childhood, before I went to Saint Petersburg to study Culinary Arts. I was a chef for the better part of my life, then I came up here. D-8990: <At the insistence of Researcher Calvin, connected through radio.> But why did you come up here in the first place? D-0110: I'm more interested in how he got up here, with the storms and all. SCP-3833-3 pauses. SCP-3833-3: It all started when a close friend of mine died here on the mountain. I was devastated, and at the funeral I vowed to make sure nobody died up here again. My vows were strong, and my will stronger, so I constructed a humble cabin to shelter the poor fools who came up here. SCP-3833-3 begins to cry. D-8990: What's wrong, Russel? SCP-3833-3: It's not the storm, it's the mountain. The mountain hates. It hated Randall back when it swallowed him up. It hates every little person who tries to climb up the mountain. It hates you. And it especially hates me. Pause. SCP-3833-1 is still occurring, creating a record time of 25 hours for duration. SCP-3833-3: I'm alright. It's getting pretty late, now. We should go to bed. The group goes to bed. Audiovisual equipment is shut down to preserve power. However, equipment is not reactivated by the group in the morning. Remote activation is necessary. SCP-3833-1 has died down. The equipment is still in the bedroom. The following audio is audible through the equipment. SCP-3833-3: Ah, you're up quite early. D-5671: That's because we made a decision. We're going to stay here. SCP-3833-3: Pardon? D-0110: Yeah, you're right, this mountain fucking sucks. But you don't have to stay up here alone. D-5671: We'll help out wherever we can, we promise. Pause. SCP-3833-3: I don't see why not. It gets a little bit lonely up here, and I'm tired of just having my thoughts for company. The equipment does not record any more dialogue, and runs out of power 72 hours later. <End Log> View Attachment: Status Report of SCP-3833-2, 07/19/2018 Close File STATUS REPORT On 07/19/2018, another group of five D-class personnel were made to ascend Nanga Parbat, and encountered SCP-3833-1. The group was directed to [DATA REDACTED], where SCP-3833-2 was located. It was discovered that two new cabins were built next to SCP-3833-2, apparently for the residence of the original group sent up to SCP-3833-2. The D-Class sent to investigate were persuaded to remove their equipment and enter the cabins. These personnel are considered to have integrated to this community of D-class personnel and SCP-3833-3. The two new cabins have been designated SCP-3833-2A and -2B. Due to the risk of sending trained agents into SCP-3833, and the risk of losing more D-class personnel to SCP-3833-2, no further personnel are to ascend Nanga Parbat. Footnotes 1. Due to the difficulty in testing the upper bound. 2. Untrue, said by Agent Krunt to motivate the group.

SCP-3834	safe	SCP-3834-A Item #: SCP-3834 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3834-A through X are to be separately held in standard containment lockers at Site-37. The location of SCP-3834’s discovery is to be restricted from public access until the Foundation Archeological Division has determined the site to be free of further anomalous content. Description: SCP-3834 is the collective designation of 24 phonographic records individually designated SCP-3834-A through SCP-3834-X. Instances of SCP-3834 are approximately 30.5 centimeters in diameter, and possess no physical or chemical differences from standard phonographic records. All instances of SCP-3834 were discovered within a combination locked safe unearthed during a paleontological excavation in █████████, Montana. The safe was encased in sedimentary rock approximately 760 meters below ground prior to its recovery, along with the remains of several instances of Troodon formosus. Radiometric dating of these remains indicates that they are between 75.5 and 77 million years old. The stone surrounding the safe displayed no signs of disruption indicative of artificial burial, suggesting that SCP-3834 was incased through natural processes. Aside from their location of discovery, SCP-3834 instances possess no inherent anomalous properties. Instances of SCP-3834 each contain between 40 and 45 minutes of content, with degraded sound quality indicative of repeated usage. Most content contained within SCP-3834 consists of songs which were popular between the late 1950s and late 1960s, from notable artists such as The Beach Boys, Chuck Berry, and Engelbert Humperdinck. All songs contained on instances of SCP-3834 are performed by the same entity, designated SCP-3834-1. SCP-3834-1 has a voice resembling that of an adult human male, and is introduced at the beginning of each recording as Don Hartley. This name is the same as that of a traveling musician who was declared missing on ██/██/2004. At the start of each record, SCP-3834-1 is introduced by a separate entity, designated SCP-3834-2. SCP-3834-2 has a distinctly inhuman voice, but speaks intelligible English, and generally spends between 10 and 45 seconds describing SCP-3834-1 in a positive and enthusiastic manner. Although most of these introductions focus on SCP-3834-1’s musical abilities, certain descriptions focus on other traits and past actions of SCP-3834-1. These descriptions suggest that SCP-3834-1 was a figure of great social influence at the time of their recording, and possibly a governmental or religious figure of some kind (see Addendum 3834.1). In addition to SCP-3834-1 and SCP-3834-2, miscellaneous noises can be heard on SCP-3834 instances which suggest additional entities were present during their initial recordings. These include the sounds of various musical instruments, including but not limited to electric guitars, bass guitars, drum sets, cellos, trumpets, and trombones. The sound of applause can also be heard between individual songs, along with noises resembling barking and screeching. The exact number and nature of the entities involved in the creation of SCP-3834 is currently unknown. Addendum 3834.1: SCP-3834 Notable Transcripts Instance: SCP-3834-A SCP-3834-2: Welcome, ladies and gentlesaurs, to the debut performance of the one and only Don Hartley! The being who, just a few short moons ago, emerged from his box of lightning, and gave us the gifts of fire and speech, is now here to give us his third and greatest gift yet, a little thing that he likes to call music. Now, don’t let his looks fool you, he may not have claws or a tail, but that doesn’t mean he won’t get you clappin’ and shakin’ yours! [several unintelligible clicking sounds are heard, possibly laughter] But seriously folks, a lot of hard work has gone into this show, so sit back, relax, and prepare to have your earholes blown clean off! (Applause) END TRANSCRIPT Instance: SCP-3834-F SCP-3834-2: Good evening, everyone, and welcome to another showing of the most sensatious cretaceous musical phenomenon around, Don Hartley! Traveler of the lightning box, bringer of the three gifts, blah blah blah, you all know the story. [unintelligible clicking] We’ve got a great show for you all tonight, and remember, if you want to take some of the magic back to your families, we’ll selling records after tonight’s performance of all Don’s greatest hits. Feel free to pick one up on your way out. Now, without further adieu, let’s get on with the show. Take it away, Donny! (Applause) END TRANSCRIPT Instance: SCP-3834-J SCP-3834-2: Hey, hey, hey, everybody! We’ve got another spectacular show for you all toni- SCP-3834-1: Hang on, hang on. Thanks for the intro, Jim, but do you mind if I take it from here? SCP-3834-2: Oh, sure, of course SCP-3834-1: Thank you. Now, you all know It’s been a while since I’ve put on one of these shows, and I just thought I’d have a little heart to heart with you all for a moment. The truth is, well, the truth is I’ve been trying to go home. (Gasps) SCP-3834-1: Now, don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I don’t love it here. You guys are like family to me. It’s just that this isn’t what I had planned. I’ve spent all my free time since I came here trying to fix the machine, but I think it’s busted for good. I don’t think I’ll ever get to go home. (silence for 6 seconds. Quiet murmuring can be heard) SCP-3834-1: But I didn’t get on this stage tonight just to whine. I came here to tell you all that I’ve accepted my situation. If I had to do it again, I don’t think I’d want it any other way. I’ve gotten to put on these shows, and be a rock star just like I’ve always dreamed, and I got to meet all of you. You’re the ones who made this all possible, and for that, I thank you. (Applause) SCP-3834-1: Alright, Now that I’ve said what I’ve needed to say, we can get into what you all really came to see. We’ve got a spectacular night planned for you guys. In honor of my tenth live performance, we’ll be playing all your favorites, plus some new ones I’ve been saving for just this occasion. So please, enjoy the show! (Applause) END TRANSCRIPT ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3834" by Wildman8, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3835	safe	 close Info X 94.85% (+92) 5.15% (-5) -% (+0) -% (-0) Item #: SCP-3835 Special Containment Procedures: No individual Foundation agents are to occupy SCP-3835 for longer than fourteen consecutive hours. Personnel are not permitted to re-enter SCP-3585 until such time as their blood has a tetrahydrocannabinol level of no more than 2.5 ng / mL. Personnel assigned to SCP-3835 are to remain under the influence of at least 200mg of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) for the duration of their shift. MTF Delta-20 ("Blaze It") is to patrol the perimeter surrounding SCP-3835 under the guise of local forest rangers. Varying strains of THC are provided upon request. Description: SCP-3835 is a non-Euclidean1 Papa John's Pizza located within a pollard beech tree in Catskill, New York. While normally imperceptible to the human eye, a door leading to SCP-3835's interior can be accessed while subjects are experiencing the effects of THC. The interior of SCP-3835 resembles a non-anomalous Papa John's with one major difference; all windows, save for the small window within the door leading to the interior, are covered with bark. Pizzas prepared within SCP-3835 are comprised of wood, pine sap, and an unknown substance that are combined and physically transmuted within the on-site oven, though the exact nature of how this is accomplished is unknown. These pizzas, once processed, are indistinguishable from non-anomalous Papa John's brand pizza and can be purchased using non-anomalous currency or through bartering with an SCP-3835-1 instance. SCP-3835-1 instances are green bipedal entities averaging a height between 0.9 and 1.2 meters. All SCP-3835-1 instances wear attire identical to that of standard-issue Papa John's uniforms. SCP-3835-1 instances are capable of speaking both English as well as an unknown, consonant-heavy language. Interview SCP-3835-1 "Tristan" SCP-3835 was discovered by Junior Researcher Umar Hadid during his leave of absence following the Post-Containment Incident. He was awarded a Greenhead Explorer Award and was granted permission to document the anomaly before returning to his leave. Junior Researcher Hadid entered SCP-3835, accompanied by an armed escort comprised of members of MTF Delta-20. Upon the completion of his order2, an SCP-3835-1 instance agreed to an interview during its allotted break period. The following interview has been attached below. Interviewer: Junior Researcher Umar Hadid Interviewed: SCP-3835-1 <Begin Log> J.R. Hadid: Alright dude, can you uh… SCP-3835-1: ( Speaking an unknown language ) ( There are several seconds of silence. Junior Researcher Hadid coughs several times and sniffles. ) J.R. Hadid: You. Name, please. SCP-3835-1: Horith Ramos of House Valkayn. You've asked me that six times now. J.R. Hadid: Sorry, I'm a little… cloudy. ( SCP-3835-1 nods and leans back in its chair. It pulls out a pocket knife and a small, semi-carved statue from its pocket and begins whittling. Delta 20 Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Echo take their seats at the adjacent table and observe SCP-3835-1. J.R. Hadid coughs and shakes his head. ) J.R. Hadid: What are you doing? Horse SCP-3835-1: What, never seen a goblin whittle on his break before? J.R. Hadid: I mean what are you doing here in this fucking tree? SCP-3835-1: Running a Papa John's. ( J.R. Hadid leans his head back and sighs. ) J.R. Hadid: Look man, I'm just trying to get some work done so can you please give me a straightforward answer. Horith SCP-3835-1: Let me ask you this, buddy. Why are you here? In our place? You and your friends got your pizza, you got your interview, got my name, what else do you want? J.R. Hadid: An explanation. ( SCP-3835-1 scoffs. ) SCP-3835-1: For what? It ain't my business what you business affairs you pursue. Why are you so nosey? J.R. Hadid: We're scien- we- we're scientists. Are you safe? ( SCP-3835-1 hands the now completed wooden sculpture to Delta 20-Alpha, who hands it to Beta. The sculpture animates and proceeds to move in a rhythmic manner that would suggest it is dancing. Beta, Gamma, and Echo are laughing. Alpha's attention remains focused on SCP-3835-1. ) ( J.R. Hadid attempts to signal to Alpha but is unsuccessful. SCP-3835-1 frowns, pulls out a small block of wood and begins carving into it. ) SCP-3835-1: You know, what's funny? We were safe for a long time before you got involved. Those hairy fucks tried to wipe us out centuries ago. Our cousins graciously closed the well off before we could escape into the forest. Left us on this side of the shit show. J.R. Hadid: What happened? Hoith Horse Horith SCP-3835-1: They stole our names and fled, that's what. We had to improvise. By the time the big boys figured out where we went, well, they were too mellowed out to do anything about it. Couldn't stay focused long enough. Eventually, after enough of 'em went missing, we were at peace. J.R. Hadid: Was this always ( He coughs ) a Papa John's? SCP-3835-1: No. But times changed. Your kind likes their pizza, and my kind aims to deliver. Unlike DiGornio. ( J.R. Hadid laughs. SCP-3835-1 does not look up from its wooden carving. ) SCP-3835-1: And, you know after a while we stopped hearing from folks. Stopped seeing those behemoths. Stopped hearing from our friends and family. Started gettin' hungry. J.R. Hadid: What'd you do? ( The initial statue returns to SCP-3835-1 with four wallets. Beta, Gamma, and Echo laugh. Alpha continues to stare as she consumes a slice of Hawaiian pizza. SCP-3835-1 stores the wallets in its pant pocket. ) SCP-3835-1: Made deals with the locals for food, money to buy food, construction efforts, you know how society works. And now… ( SCP-3835-1 sets the second statue on the table between it and J.R. Hadid. The second statue becomes animated and rolls tetrahydrocannabinol residue within a napkin. Using anomalous means, the statue lights the end of the rolled napkin before handing it to J.R. Hadid. ) SCP-3835-1: ( Rifling through the content of the wallets. ) Well, we all make a living somehow. Footnotes 1.

SCP-3836	euclid	To prevent unexpected modes of locomotion, SCP-3836 must be made to report the intended purpose of the vehicle before testing. Entirety of report consists of "Go fast" in all cases, instructions rescinded. Item #: SCP-3836 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3836 is to be kept in a 4 meter by 4 meter by 5 meter chamber, furnished with a bed, sink, shower and jungle gym. SCP-3836 is to be provided with tools and small pieces of machinery for entertainment as requested. Music may be played in the chamber at SCP-3836's request between the hours of 9 AM and 6 PM. SCP-3836 may be allowed to exit its chamber and travel the facility, provided it has at least one escort. SCP-3836 is to be fed twice a day, and is to receive an oil change monthly. Any materials used in testing with SCP-3836 must be approved by any Level 3 or higher staff before use. All testing is to be performed on the outdoors demolitions testing range onsite, with all observers behind a protective barrier. + View Revision - Hide Revision As of 11/17/2017, SCP-3836 is uncontained. Foundation radar is to continue to monitor deep space for any signs of SCP-3836. Description: SCP-3836 is the corpse of an adult male Western Lowland Gorilla1. The upper half of the corpse has most of the flesh missing and bears light scorch marks over the exposed bone. The skull has a large split down the middle of the face, and has no flesh on it other than the eyeballs. Minor decomposition has occurred across the body, as well as minor injuries. All blood in SCP-3836 has been replaced with a mixture of commercially-available engine oil through unknown means. If this oil is not changed at least once every 6 weeks, SCP-3836 will enter a comatose state until new oil is provided. SCP-3836 normally wears a large pair of heavily-stained overalls, workboots and tinted protective goggles. Despite the damage done to it, SCP-3836 remains fully animate and sapient, and is capable of movement and crude speech. SCP-3836 has shown to have much higher levels of intelligence than other members of its species, being able to read and write in English and perform basic arithmetic, albeit both with occasional frequent errors. SCP-3836 demonstrates expertise in the areas of mechanics and engineering, despite lacking in other areas of intelligence normally essential to understanding such materials. It has shown to have a simplistic personality, and enjoys listening to fast-paced music and making repairs and modifications to motor vehicles. The goal of these creations, as stated repeatedly by SCP-3836, is to "Go fast". + Show Interview Log - Hide Interview Log Interview 3836-011-D Date: 8/7/2015 Interviewer: Dr. Sambre Interviewee: SCP-3836 [BEGIN LOG] Dr. Sambre: Good afternoon, SCP-3836. I appreciate you agreeing to an interview. SCP-3836: It okay. Done with last fast, need time for think of new. No busy. Dr. Sambre: I see, you'll have plenty of time to think. Now, I'd like to know a little more about you. For instance, could you tell me where you learned how to talk? SCP-3836: Talk easy, it just air go fast from mouth. I am know all fast things. Words, is harder. Not all words fast. Learn all fast words from book, no need other. Dr. Sambre: Mmhm. You've made it clear you like fast things. Why is that? SCP-3836 rises out of the chair, and strikes a heroic pose with one foot on the table and one hand over its chest. SCP-3836: Fast is way world go! World? Fast around sun! Warm from sun? Very fast, to world! Me, you? Have leg, leg not so fast. Need go faster, reach true fast! Become like sun! Warm for all, bright and shine! Faster than dead, no more dead! Only fast! Dr. Sambre: …And you hope to accomplish this through your machines? SCP-3836: Is good start. Still need faster. More boom in engine, or maybe just more engine. Or both! Dr. Sambre: Okay, as long as the "boom" stays in the engine. One more question, and then you can go back to your thinking. You seem to have… severe injuries on the top half of your body. Where did you get them, and how have you survived? SCP-3836: Oh, I lean out window when go big fast. No know how fast, dial go boom after say lots of nines. Dr. Sambre: …And you survived this? SCP-3836: Is okay, I wear goggles. [END LOG] The primary anomalous ability of SCP-3836 is the creation and application of anomalous modifications to motor vehicles. Without fail, any and all modifications made by SCP-3836 will result in anomalous phenomena occurring upon attempts to drive the vehicle. These anomalies include successful installation of normally incompatible mechanisms, bestowing anomalous properties upon preexisting components via normal physical modification, and the fabrication and usage of entirely new anomalous components. Any attempts to replicate these modifications by any individual other than SCP-3836 have resulted in failure. + Show Test Log - Hide Log Test SCP-3836-05 Vehicle Base: Yamaha Drive G29 Golf Cart Modifications: Exhaust pipe connected directly to fuel tank, fuel replaced with a mixture of diesel and nitrous oxide, lit match affixed to end of exhaust pipe, chicken-wire windshield added, "FAST" written across hood in red paint. Results: Upon ignition, a rapid series of explosions emerge from the exhaust pipe, launching the vehicle and SCP-3836 forwards at 227 kph for 26 seconds, after which the fuel runs out and the vehicle decelerates. The entire back half of the vehicle is heavily damaged, and all four tires have melted. SCP-3836 emerges from the driver's seat, laughing wildly. Notes: Due to the ██ injuries sustained, materials used in testing must be approved by project lead before being given to SCP-3836. Test SCP-3836-08 Vehicle Base: Vespa 946 Electric Scooter Modifications: Replacement of headlight with air intake routed to engine by plastic drinking straws, entire flare gun placed in gas tank, ejector seat installed, crude sheet-metal wings affixed to either side, large button labelled "FAST" installed between handlebars. Results: While button is unpressed, scooter functions as normal. Upon pressing the button, a previously undiscovered hatch opens up in the rear of the vehicle, revealing a large nozzle. Flames burst from the nozzle as the intake turbine begins spinning, and the vehicle accelerates to 241 kph before becoming airborne, eventually reaching speeds of 385 kph. SCP-3836 remains airborne for a minute and a half before the vehicle nosedives, prompting activation of the ejector seat. Ejector seat functions, and the rest of the vehicle crashes. Notes: To prevent unexpected modes of locomotion, SCP-3836 must be made to report the intended purpose of the vehicle before testing. Entirety of report consists of "Go fast" in all cases, instructions rescinded. Test SCP-3836-14 Vehicle Base: 2017 Toyota Prius c Modifications: 18 Tesla coils of various sizes installed randomly over surface of the vehicle, unidentified device vaguely resembling a toaster implanted in dashboard, portions of disassembled plasma lamp glued to windshield, trunk completely filled with AA batteries. Results: When moving at more than 74 kph, all tesla coils will activate and vehicle will entirely phase through all forms of matter aside from the surface being traveled upon. Phasing includes air in the atmosphere, resulting in zero air resistance. Vehicle is capable of reaching speeds upwards of 120 kph without additional effort while phasing, and has displayed a top speed of 233 kph. Notes: Vehicle kept for usage in field operations. Personnel are to be reminded that no interaction with atmosphere means respiration is impossible without supplementary equipment. Test SCP-3836-16 Vehicle Base: Cessna 172 Skyhawk Modifications: Tripled the amount of blades on the propeller, "FAST" written on each blade individually. Results: Vehicle displays a new top speed of 907 kph, almost exactly three times higher than previous max speed of 302 kph. Notes: Vehicle kept for usage in field operations. Test SCP-3836-23 Vehicle Base: Segway MiniPro With Handlebar Modifications: Replaced the 2-horsepower electric motor with a 506-horsepower diesel engine, heavy-duty offroad tires installed on both wheels, unidentified component resembling a throttle intake affixed to standing platform, license plate reading "FAST" added, stereo installed, seatbelt tied loosely to handlebars Results: Prior to testing, SCP-3836 insisted upon building a specified test area including several ramps and other obstacles. After mounting the vehicle, SCP-3836 wraps the seatbelt around its waist before beginning to accelerate forwards. The vehicle launches off of the first jump at 71 kph and performs two full backflips before landing, at which point the stereo activates and confetti begins to blow out of the rear of the vehicle. It is noted that no confetti was included in the building materials. SCP-3836 then proceeds to travel along a grind rail while balancing on one tire, the sparks igniting the confetti. At this time SCP-3836 is observed to increase the volume of the stereo to the point where it is audible over the engine, now revealed to be playing "Kickstart My Heart" by American heavy metal band Mötley Crüe. SCP-3836 continues to perform stunts at increasing speeds until both tires burst from friction, resulting in the destruction of the vehicle. Notes: SCP-3836 suffered severe injuries to both legs in the crash, but remained fully mobile and animate, showing no signs of discomfort or lapse in ability. It credited this to the seatbelt it installed. Requests from personnel to repeat the test and/or hold tests within a similar arena were denied. Test SCP-3836-28 Vehicle Base: Foundation Spacecraft Model G-3351 Modifications: Unidentified devices incorporating electromagnets and large amounts of electronics placed alongside interior of engines, turbines added inside fuel tanks, several additional layers added to heat shields, all life-support and computational systems replaced with additional engines, unidentified ring-shaped device added to exterior of vehicle, stick-shift with additional gear labelled "FAST" added to control panel. Results: See Addendum 1. Addendum 1: On 11/17/2017, Test SCP-3836-28 was carried out with special permission from Director ████████. A D-class using life-support gear was scheduled to operate the vehicle instead of SCP-3836, but SCP-3836 installed a secret hatch adjacent to the main thruster which it used to board and subsequently launch the vehicle when it was informed of this decision. SCP-3836 and the craft successfully exited earth's orbit, and disappeared from all Foundation radar 28 seconds after launch. To accomplish this feat would require speeds substantially greater than the speed of light. Before disappearing a single transmission was received from the spacecraft, presumably from SCP-3836: FAST ENOUGH. Footnotes 1.

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3837 is to be kept in a standard humanoid containment chamber at Site-322. No food containing corn is to be brought within SCP-3837's view. All inquiries from SCP-3837 regarding whether one has consumed corn are to be either denied or ignored. SCP-3837's file is currently under the jurisdiction of Site-322's Integration Program. See addenda for details. Description: SCP-3837 is an ear of corn (Zea mays) partially covered with husk. It has thin makeshift arms and legs composed of 0.6 mm thick stalks, and it stands 0.2 m tall. Its arms terminate in four digits, one of which is an opposable thumb. It has a tuft of corn silk (Stigma maydis) coming from its top and covering the top left section of its front. SCP-3837 is sapient, sentient, and capable of sensory perception and vocalizations despite lacking the necessary organs to do so. SCP-3837 self-identifies as "Cornelius the Great, Slayer of Goats;" along with this, SCP-3837 incorporates a medieval and Shakespearian speaking pattern into its diction. Whether this is a conscious choice is unknown. SCP-3837 is incredibly hostile towards goats (Capra aegagrus hircus) and will become irate at any and all mentions of the animal. This attitude will deteriorate when SCP-3837 is presented with any materials depicting or resembling goats. When this occurs, SCP-3837 will instead display symptoms similar to those with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, including panic attacks, anxiety, and emotional stress. SCP-3837 was discovered on May 12, 2020, at a farm in Danville, Kentucky lurking around the perimeter of a fence wielding a spoon. The owner of the property contacted authorities and MTF Iota-10 ("Damn Feds") was able to apprehend SCP-3837 with no incident. Standard Veil retention protocol was performed following the recovery. Addendum 3837.1: Intake Interview Log Date of Interview: 5/13/20 Interviewed: SCP-3837 Interviewer: Dr. Pattinson <Begin Log> Dr. Pattinson: Good evening, my name is Dr. Pattinson. You're currently in a secure facility for your safe— SCP-3837: Have you consumed my brethren? Dr. Pattinson: What, like other ears of corn? Do you mean others like you or just corn in general? SCP-3837: That was not a no! [SCP-3837 proceeds to hop off its chair and run to Dr. Pattinson’s leg. SCP-3837 then begins to pound Dr. Pattinson’s foot. Dr. Pattinson was unharmed.] Dr. Pattinson: Alright, alright, calm down. I don't eat corn. SCP-3837: You're a man of honor and reverence. [SCP-3837 kneels, then stands and returns to its seat.] You may call me Cornelius, how may I serve you? Dr. Pattinson: Well then Cornelius, during a search of the farm we found you at, we found several scrolls detailing attack plans on a group known as "Those that don't deserve name." Is this another cornfield on a different farm, or something else? SCP-3837: Goats… My mortal enemies. What loathsome creatures they are. Such demons; they impart on your land, pillaging and destroying as they see fit. I hate them. Dr. Pattinson: Hate is a strong word. I've tried getting it out of my vocabulary. SCP-3837: I do hate them! My community… my family was ravaged by them. From kernel to ear, we were utterly devastated. It was a sneak attack. Father Elliot was dealing with those brutes for years, at that point. They would come into his land with their many teeth and devour the grass and my ancestors. [SCP-3837 pauses.] SCP-3837: There were too many of them that night. Father couldn't scare them off and even I — The Great Cornelius! —was no use. It was an ambush. There were thousands of them, chomping and chewing with their cold yellow eyes. In the end, I was the only survivor. Dr. Pattinson: Ah, now that makes sense. I'm sorry you had to go through that. SCP-3837: I do not need your pity, the only creatures I will be sorry for, are the beasts that face my wrath. I took a pledge to destroy every goat I come in contact with from that day forward. My wrath will be unchallenged — my power, more powerful than any power ever seen before! [SCP-3837 starts to scream as the kernels on its top start to pop and replenish almost instantaneously causing popcorn to fly from SCP-3837 covering the interrogation room.] Dr. Pattinson: I think that’s a good place to stop for today. <End Log> Following the interview, an investigation of the area near the farm SCP-3837 was recovered from led to the identification of PoI-7383 (Elliot Pines) who was then brought in for questioning1. Addendum 3837.2: Test Log The following was conducted to observe SCP-3837’s reaction to a goat. While there was worry among site staff that SCP-3837 would harm the goat, Dr. Pattinson's experience with SCP-3837 determined that it was virtually harmless. Date of Experiment: 12/10/20 <Begin Log> Prebriefing Dr. Pattinson: We're going to give you access to a goat. It will be controlled in case anything goes wrong. Does that sound alright? SCP-3837: Your worry should not be with me, but with the beast you allow me to unleash my vengeance upon. It will be slaughtered like my family was slaughtered. It will be butchered like my family was butchered. It will be flayed— Dr. Pattinson: Okay, there are a few hundred other synonyms, I get the point. SCP-3837: Your honor and reverence is unmatched. No other man has allowed me this opportunity. I do this in your name, Son of Pattin. Testing SCP-3837: Where are you hiding? Come out here and face the wrath of I, the great Cornelius! [A goat fitted with a muzzle is released into SCP-3837’s chamber.] SCP-3837: Oh, great lord. [SCP-3837 begins slowly backing away from the goat. The goat sniffs the concrete floor.] Goat: Maaah. SCP-3837: It's calling for its brethren! Save me! I've been clearly outmatched. [SCP-3837 backs itself into a corner and attempts to climb up the testing chamber walls.] Goat: Baaaa. SCP-3837: Get out of my head! [Dr. Pattinson retrieves the goat. Test terminated.] Debriefing Dr. Pattinson: What happened out there? SCP-3837: I will consider that battle a draw, for this time and this time only. I did not expect the creature to use its magic to invoke fright in me. It shan't happen again. <End Log> Following the experiment, SCP-3837 was seen sulking in its chamber. This behavior continued for approximately seven days. Addendum 3837-3: Integration Program Directive CASE FILE: SCP-3837 Under the directive of the Integration Program, work with SCP-3837 will be pursued in an attempt to remedy its PTSD2 from it and its species' experience with livestock, specifically goats. Since SCP-3837 has already been exposed to a goat, there may be complications. That being said, Site staff are hopeful that this will achieve its goal. The time table will be as follows: Exposure Item Date Photograph of a Goat 20/10/20 Goat Fur 20/11/20 Goat Animatronic 20/12/20 Live Goat 20/01/21 TEST: Photograph of a Goat On the first day of exposure, SCP-3837 immediately recoiled from the photograph and refused to look at it. SCP-3837 claimed it had shut its eyes, despite lacking the features. Over the course of the next month, SCP-3837 was able to look at the photograph for extended periods of time, describe it, and eventually allowed it to remain in its containment chamber. Excerpt(s) SCP-3837: I shall keep this at my side, as a reminder of the beasts I will destroy. TEST: Goat Fur Researchers noted an immediate change in behavior from the last test. As mentioned, SCP-3837 refused to look at the picture. In this case, it was curious about the item and only showed mild discomfort when handling it. At the end of the tests, SCP-3837 commented on the fur's texture, finding it comfortable. Excerpt(s) SCP-3837: It seems that the creatures' malice does not seep into its fur. A pure diversion! TEST: Goat Animatronic A mild change in behavior occurred on the first day of testing. SCP-3837 was initially frightened by the animatronic, a miniature robot replica of an adult goat. It immediately upon sight of the robot, ran to the corner of its chamber. It remained there for the entirety of the first day, resulting in no substantial advancement. At the end of the testing cycle, SCP-3837 became somewhat accustomed to the animatronic's presence, attempting to pet the robot multiple times per day and sleeping with the animatronic in its chamber. Excerpt(s) SCP-3837: Proper training for my second battle! I am thankful for this oppurtinity. While the excerpts displayed here do not show the improvement described, it is known that SCP-3837's warrior facade is artificial. These tests show a remarkable change in behavior. The final test will take place on the allotted date. Addendum 3837.4 PoI-7383: Interview Log When nearing the end of the goat animatronic testing period, PoI-7383 was brought in and questioned in order to learn how best to go about live goat exposure testing. Date of Interview: 18/01/21 Interviewed: PoI-7383 Interviewer: Dr. Pattinson <Begin Log> Dr. Pattinson: Hi, Mr. Pines, my name is Dr. Pattinson. Thanks for joining us. PoI-7383: It’s not like I had a choice in the matter, heh. You can call me Elliot by the way. Dr. Pattinson: Well then, Elliot, I have a few questions surrounding the corn grown on your farm. PoI-7383: You're gonna ask why they were alive and roaming — been there and done that, my friend. Used to get hundreds of questions about it. Never got tired of answering it, though. [PoI-7383 chuckles] PoI-7383: I miss 'em a bit. It was good to have someone to talk to when you're out pulling weeds or shucking corn. My wife was never into the whole farm life thing — stuck to teaching. Dr. Pattinson: Are all the ears gone — the living ones, that is? PoI-7383: Yeah, three or four of my goats got loose and managed to eat the bunch. It was a real fox-in-a-hen-house deal. They meant no harm, but I do feel bad about it. Weighs heavy on my conscience. Dr. Pattinson: How did they animate? Did you have a hand in that? PoI-7383: Nope. Couldn't really help you there, I'm afraid. I liked to tell people I wished upon a star like the Pinocchio movie. It was really that I just woke up one day, saw 'em — it scared the absolute soul out of me — and eventually, they grew on me. Dr. Pattinson: I actually might have some good news. We're in possession of one of your ears. Does 'The Great Cornelius' ring any bells? PoI-7383 Wait really! That’s so good to hear! But I didn't have any cobs by that name. [PoI-7383 pauses] PoI-7383: You know, that must be Little Tom, he always quite exaggerative. I'm sure with a whole new group to impress he told a few tall tales to ya! Dr. Pattinson: That definitely sounds like our SCP-3837! It's recently sworn total vengeance on all goats over the incident. PoI-7383: It's all my fault. I really, really should have kept a better eye on those goats. My lord, he's better than that. I made him this way. He's no killer… that's not who he is in his heart. Dr. Pattinson: To be fair, he definitely isn't a killer. We've shown him a goat and he was terrified. That being said, he's shown great development in our program. PoI-7383: That's even worse… he's always loved animals. The cows especially, something about their size in comparison really wowed him. He used to ride them around sometimes. Dr. Pattinson: Like I said, we're working on helping him, and he's doing really well — right now we're trying out this robot our Cybernetics Department developed. [Pause] Now that I mention it, you still have those goats, right? PoI-7383: Yep! One of 'em, Baaaathany, gave birth two days ago. Dr. Pattinson: Even better. <End Log> Addendum 3837.5: Final Exposure Test PoI-7383 was brought into SCP-3837’s chamber along with the aforementioned baby goat. Date of Experiment: 13/11/20 <Begin Log> Dr. Pattinson: Good evening, Tom. SCP-3837: Hark! You dare call me by that name. If you were not a man of great wisdom and pride I'd cut you in twain. Only one man knows me by that name, my father. Dr. Pattinson: Funny you should mention, because… [PoI-7383 then enters the room] PoI-7383: Hi, Tom. SCP-3837: Father! I thought I'd never see you again! PoI-7383: What was with that accent earlier? What are you, Shakespeare? SCP-3837: It's for a bit of flair, you know. PoI-7383: No… no, I don't know. I've heard of your "quest" and your hatred of goats. Did I ever teach violence? SCP-3837: …No. This was an extenuating circumstance. PoI-7383: Well, I also heard you're working through it. You know that hate is a strong word, right? SCP-3837: Yes… he's told me enough times. Dr. Pattinson: It was once — also you said you respected me. SCP-3837: I do, you're just a bit pushy is all. PoI-7383: Can I say how proud I am of your progress. Mr. Pattinson— [Dr. Pattinson pulls PoI-7383 aside to the other side of the containment chamber.] Dr. Pattinson: It's not a big deal but I've actually got a doctorate. PoI-7383: Ok? Dr. Pattinson: Just earlier you said Mr. Pattinson, but I've got a doctorate in agriculture so it's doctor, not mister. PoI-7383: Well… ok, sorry. [Dr. Pattinson and PoI-7383 return to SCP-3837.] PoI-7383: Doctor Pattinson showed me the reports here, and it's amazing how fast you're improving. SCP-3837: My so-called "hatred" has turned into only a minor disliking of goats. PoI-7383: Well, I guess that's an improvement. I hope my friend could be of help too. I'm going to step out and we'll send her in. SCP-3837: Alright. I hope I can see you again. PoI-7383: I hope so too. [The kid is released into the testing chamber. SCP-3837 does not move.] SCP-3837: H— hello, creature. [The goat bites at the peeling paint of the containment chamber's wall.] SCP-3837: Oooooh there's teeth — the robot didn't have teeth. [The goat makes its way over to SCP-3837's bed. It lies down and shuts its eyes.] SCP-3837: What? Is this a trap? Dr. Pattinson: (Over the intercom) I believe it's sleeping, Tom. SCP-3837: It doesn't want to eat me? Dr. Pattinson: Nope, I think it trusts you. It fell asleep right next to you. [SCP-3837 approaches the sleeping kid. It hovers its "hand" above it.] SCP-3837: Hm. Warm. [SCP-3837 begins to slowly and shakily pet the baby goat.] SCP-3837: Ah, that's not so bad. [The goat snorts. SCP-3837 continued to caress and inspect the sleeping animal for approximately seven minutes.] SCP-3837: Maybe you're not all bad. <End Log> Following the test, weekly visits between SCP-3837, PoI-73833 and the goat, now designated GoI-38374 have been scheduled. As part of this procedure, GoI-3837 is to be kept well fed and supervised during all interactions with SCP-3837. Footnotes 1. See Addendum 3837-4. 2. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. 3.

SCP-3838	euclid	However, these tribes possess an ability to travel through time, and thus each SCP-3838 instance occupies the land at a different point in history.  close Info X SCP-3838: Nomads of the 4th-Dimensional Steppe Author: Tufto. More of their work can be found here. Image: Can be found here, and is in the public domain. Two members of SCP-3838-3, posing in front of a rug which they had woven, 1908. Item #: SCP-3838 Special Containment Procedures: A perimeter is to be established 1km away from SCP-3838's area of operation. A single entrance is located on the eastern edge to allow entrance and egress to and from the area of operation and the research base. To prevent incursions by SCP-3838-4, the perimeter is heavily armed against both internal and external threats. SCP-3838-4's activities are currently limited to occasional raids on the other SCP-3838 instances, but conversations with members of the other SCP-3838 instances indicate that SCP-3838-4's occupation is currently due to begin in 2054, with a strong likelihood of this occurring at an early date due to SCP-3838-4's military strength and aggressive behaviour. Efforts to engage SCP-3838-4 diplomatically are underway, but this should not be done at the expense of the Foundation's relationship with SCP-3838-3. Internal disputes or conflicts between SCP-3838 instances are not to be interfered with. There are, however, two exception to this rule: 1) if said conflicts may cause a containment breach, or 2) if any conflict occurs between SCP-3838-4 and either SCP-3838-2 or SCP-3838-3, as per our agreement with these groups. Any members of SCP-3838-8 are to be detained and interrogated upon sight. No such members have been encountered thus far. Description: SCP-3838 refers to a series of 8 nomadic Turkmen tribes. These tribes all occupy a space of 10km2 at a site in western Turkmenistan, near the Caspian Sea. However, these tribes possess an ability to travel through time, and thus each SCP-3838 instance occupies the land at a different point in history. SCP-3838 instances treat different periods of time as if they are different areas of territorial pastureland owned by one tribe or another. Agreements and conflicts over the periods owned by each tribe are common, with sudden raids into a particular time period common. Two time periods have been set aside for particular common purpose, under which there is an agreed-upon parley between the tribes: an unspecified period in the early 15th century BCE, and the period from 1800-1858, used as a marketplace and as a place for inter-tribal councils and gatherings. SCP-3838 instances travel through time through an unknown ritual, which is not shared with outsiders. It is known that this involves the travellers entering a ger1, with two flames flanking the entrance, but nothing else about the process has been conclusively determined. SCP-3838 instances do not occupy their time period contiguously, but ordinarily move to a different time within their period, forwards or backwards, every six months. The continual raiding, conflict and re-use of already used years has resulted in a number of temporal paradoxes occuring; these have not, however, caused any significant temporal destabilities, due to an unknown method of temporal preservation. The culture of SCP-3838 is typical of nomadic tribes of the region. They primarily live in gers, and each tribe is ruled by a khan, despite the small sizes of each group. They all speak the same antiquated dialect of Turkmen, believed to have been common in the region during the 15th century; some also speak Persian and Chagatai, with a small number possessing knowledge of classical Arabic. SCP-3838 instances often practice a fusion of traditional and Islamic beliefs, with some exceptions (detailed below). Economically, SCP-3838 instances primarily live off the milk and meat of goats and sheep, with a natural spring located within the bounds of their physical territory providing water. A large number of handicrafts are created by the SCP-3838 instances; this is often the role of the women, although the traditionally egalitarian nature of nomadic societies also affords them a limited role in herding, rearing, combat and sometimes tribal leadership. The exception to this is SCP-3838-2, which is a solely matriarchal tribe. Of note is the possession of large quantities of advanced technology and weaponry possessed by all of the SCP-3838 instances. These have reportedly been raided or traded from tribes whose "territory" is in the future. SCP-3838-3 is the current SCP-3838 instance occupying the pastureland. The Foundation has promised protection for SCP-3838-3 against SCP-3838-4, a hostile tribe seeking to aggressively expand its "territory" into the 21st century. In exchange, SCP-3838-3 voluntarily offers the Foundation advanced technology which the Foundation believes may be useful. The Foundation has a similar arrangement with SCP-3838-2, although as their "territory" is now in the past, this agreement is rarely activated in modern times. Communication with the tribes is difficult, as the Foundation encounters them at wildly different points in their personal timelines and often receive contradictory information as a result, a problem exacerbated by the continuous rewriting of the timeline. SCP-3838 was first discovered in 1696, when the Foundation predecessor organisation Devan-e Jaaduyih (Office of Magic), a part of the Safavid governmental apparatus which would later become an independent organisation, responded to reports of "disappearing and reappearing tents" by relocated Kurdish tribesmen in the area. The Devan-e Jaaduyih continued to contain the tribes until its absorption into the Foundation in 1834. The anomaly itself is believed to have started in the 15th century BCE, following a "vast battle"; they have, however, been heavily influenced by later Turkic and Islamic nomads, and their oral history contains few reliable elements from before the 1st century CE. Below are details of all of the SCP-3838 tribes, their zones of control, and the nature of the two parley zones. Note that some of this information was recorded during earlier periods of the Foundation's history, and that of their predecessors, when social attitudes and data gathering were performed under markedly different standards. Tribe/Zone Period Details The "Holy Years" c. 15th century BCE Within the variant of Tengri beliefs practised (often syncretically with Islam) by SCP-3838, these years are considered to be a particularly holy site, where a great conglomeration of spirits gather. It is believed that a great battle occured shortly before the beginning of these years, but there is uncertainty as to its nature. SCP-3838-1 c. 110 CE to c. 290 CE Little is known about this tribe; they were only observed in the "Marketplace" years. They are rumoured to produce particularly fine earthenware pots, and these were often seen in the marketplace. Unusually, they appear to follow strong Manichean beliefs, but associated "darkness" in Manichean dualism with the colour red. SCP-3838-2 c. 1130 CE to 1799 CE A matriarchal tribe; combat, herding and tribal leadership are solely the preserve of women. This unusual arrangement is credited to a "hero" during the ancient battle mentioned earlier. Their unusually large territory is a mark of their particular success as a tribe. Information on this tribe is scant, and filled with exaggeration and myth by earlier writers; it is known, however, that they were skilled hunters who often ranged further afield than the other tribes, engaging in the Mongol tradition of the nerge2. They practice a mixture of shamanism and Islam. The "Marketplace" 1800 CE to 1858 CE A place of pre-agreed upon gatherings. Tribes often arrive here to trade technology and talismans, as well as to arbitrate disputes. SCP-3838-4's hostility has resulted in their exclusion from this period; SCP-3838-8 instances are never seen. A description by Foundation operative Ali Quli Beg describes the ware on offer as "strange and terrible things; muskets and rifles altered to emit bolts of light, pagan talismans which glow with strange fire, an antique funeral urn with shifting markings, and arrows which followed their targets like hounds." SCP-3838-3 1870 CE to 2054 CE The current tribe. SCP-3838-3 is ruled by a khan in consultation with several begs, perhaps mirroring the traditional position in the region of a khan being a senior governor and a beg being a lesser governor. Members of SCP-3838-3 are known for the particular quality of their carpet-weaving, which they often use as objects of bartering. They formerly held many more years, but have been pushed back by SCP-3838-4. SCP-3838-4 2054 CE to c. 3000 CE The largest known tribe in terms of time occupied, SCP-3838-4 is shunned by and hostile to other tribes and to the Foundation. They are often dressed in human skins, although captured members claim that these are only the skins of SCP-3838-8 members. Nevertheless, this practice has led them to be abhorred by the other tribes; the only exceptions are the SCP-3838-7 survivors, who have a good relationship with SCP-3838-4. They are reportedly obsessed with SCP-3838-8 and are attempting to create an "empire of time" to stand against them. They often enslave or incorporate other tribes into their own. They are known for their protection of a particular funeral urn, which houses the body of a "fallen foe". Interestingly, oral tradition among SCP-3838-2 includes a reference to an "ancient urn", and older survivors of SCP-3838-7 have talked of "losing their urn". SCP-3838-5 c. 3000 CE to c. 3020 CE A small tribe, SCP-3838-5 has been almost wiped out. Its members are renowned for their skill at cooking, and could be found in large numbers at the marketplace and sometimes within other tribes. Reportedly, they are running low on good pastureland, and "constantly meet themselves" within the tiny size of their remaining territory. SCP-3838-6 c. 3020 CE to c. 3450 CE Traditional allies of SCP-3838-5, SCP-3838-6 possess particularly advanced technology often found at the Marketplace. SCP-3838-6 are known for their lack of syncretism, practising a relatively pure form of Shi'ite Islam. They are known to have dealings with a group calling themselves the "Empire for the Reclamation of Islamic Artifacts", believed to be a future variant of the ORIA; they are, however, extremely friendly and co-operative with the Foundation despite this. SCP-3838-7 None; formerly c. 3500 CE to c. 4100 CE This tribe was destroyed; surviving members and their descendants can occasionally be found in other tribes and at the marketplace, although most were incorporated into SCP-3838-5. Although the other SCP-3838 instances ascribe this destruction to SCP-3838-4, surviving SCP-3838-7 members claim it was done by SCP-3838-8. SCP-3838-8 Unknown; in the far future. Very little is known of this tribe; no members have ever been encountered, and the other SCP-3838 instances ordinarily refuse to speak of them outside of their oral tradition, which states that they were the tribe fought against at the "great battle" (although other sources state that it was a single powerful figure who was fought against; both traditions are believed to have been created well after the event). The only exception is SCP-3838-4, who refers to them as the "enemy above all enemies" and the "rejectors"; limited contact with SCP-3838-4 has prevented the Foundation from learning more, however. Addendum 1: On 02/01/2011, a member of SCP-3838-4 approached the research base attached to the perimeter defences. Claiming to be an envoy, the figure asked for an interview with the site director, which was granted; a transcript can be found below. Interview 3838-1 Close Log Interviewer: Dr. Sayyeda Aisha Rizvi, Site Director. Interviewee: An envoy from SCP-3838-4. Date: 02/11/2011 <Begin Log> Dr. Rizvi: Hello there. The envoy is silent. Dr. Rizvi: Look, tell me what you want. You're lucky we're even granting you this interview. Envoy: We have met your kind before. You'll understand my… hesitancy in trusting you, khanum. You capture our people, kill our soldiers. We do not easily forget. Dr. Rizvi: You kill ours. You kill our friends among the tribes. Envoy: Oh, what is the point of this? I could tell you we have a purpose, I could tell you we have a purpose behind our raids, that I take no joy in the killing of our brothers, but to what end? It would convince you of nothing. Let us stick to the matter at hand. Dr. Rizvi: Go on, then. What was it you wanted to dicuss? Envoy: What do you know of the battle? The great battle that defined our world? Dr. Rizvi: Little. The envoy sighs heavily Envoy: It matters little. Let me find another way to put it… imagine we made a prison. Dr. Rizvi: I didn't think you went into that kind of thing. Envoy: A prison, but one of many aspects. If you want to truly lock something away, you make its substance uncertain. You trap part of it in another reality, another in a different concept of existence- and another in a pocket of time. Dr. Rizvi: …Something is being imprisoned by you? Envoy: Yes. Dr. Rizvi: I'll need more than that. Envoy: And I cannot give it to you, Khanum. We have nine centuries of time to look after, pastures and children and womenfolk. Our years are good, and vast, and we protect our own. Nobody else remembers. They all forget. They see us only as bloodthirsty tyrants. They all forgot! And now we stand alone. The seventh tribe were the only others, and they died. We need help. You contain things, yes? You keep them hidden? Dr. Rizvi: We do. But that's not how it works. We need to know what we're dealing with, what- Envoy: No. We cannot. I am sorry. Dr. Rizvi: Then we cannot make a deal. Envoy: Look, I- you can stand on your principles all you like, but this is happening, khanum. The Eternal Heaven has orchestrated this. If we told you, we would be breaking our promise. We made a pact. We will not bend. And if you do not, then it will be released. Dr. Rizvi: …What do you want from us, then? Envoy: To talk. To have you as an intermediary, for they will not trust us. We cannot unite the tribes, so we must join with them. Please, khanum. Please help us. The envoy is visibly shaking at this point. Dr. Rizvi: …How do I know that you won't- Envoy: You don't, khanum. But you are the Jailors. You are the ones who keep us safe. Everyone safe. From the dark behind the eyes. A pause for five seconds. Dr. Rizvi: Alright. Come with me. There are some people you should speak to. <End Log> Following this, SCP-3838-4 has agreed to stop its program of aggressive expansion against the other SCP-3838 instances. SCP-3838-4 has refused to elaborate further on the nature of SCP-3838-8, but the Foundation has agreed to support its efforts at political alliance and communication with the other SCP-3838 instances, as it is believed the nature of the threat described is serious enough to warrant precautions. RESTRICTED TO CLEARANCE LEVEL 5 ONLY Welcome, Overseer Addendum 2: On 20/09/2017, several documents in the personal collection of the 19th century Foundation operative and Orientalist John Callaghan were recovered by the Foundation. Among these was a translation into English of a song Callaghan heard during the "Marketplace" period, said to originate among SCP-3838-8. It reads as follows: They forget the hallowed words upon the death of time. May they share the fate of those who deny to me what's mine, They forget the howling chains that bind me safe away, One of many old chanyus3 forgotten in this way. They forget the steel swords they used to cast me down, They shall not forget again before my flaming crown. They forget the seven brides that wait for my return, Such loveliness is lost upon the children of the urns. They forget the seals that are used to keep me still, Only one remembers and is not bent to my will. Seven seals, seven tribes, six reclaimed, one shall be mine, And ere the end of all your days the Crimson Khan shall ride. Footnotes 1. Often called a yurt, a ger is a type of tent used by the nomadic peoples of Inner Asia. 2. A type of ceremonial hunt, wherein the hunters encircle an animal together before firing upon it. 3. A term used for the leader of a steppe tribe before khan. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3838" by Tufto, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3839	euclid	Portion of brain removed from SCP-3839 Item #: SCP-3839 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3839 is to be contained in a large, reinforced, Heavy Bio-Containment Cell in the lower levels of Site-234, sealed according to BSL-4. SCP-3839 is to be fed 100 kg of lipids, preferably in the form of lard, once a week. All direct interaction with SCP-3839 and maintenance of its cell is to be done via robotic drone; no personnel are allowed inside the cell unless given direct permission by both the Project Head (currently Dr. Maravilla) and the Site Directors (currently Drs. Leep and Sherry Andrews). The ceiling of this room is to be equipped with sprinklers filled with 10M NaOH solution, to be used in the event of an imminent breach. Description: SCP-3839 is a large amorphous mass comprised mostly of undifferentiated fat cells, measuring approximately 2.5 m in radius and weighing approximately 60 metric tons. SCP-3839 constantly alters its shape and size and moves using a method similar to amoeboid movement. SCP-3839 gains control over lipids not part of itself within an approximate radius of 3 m; at greater distances, SCP-3839 can only exert a weak attractive force whose strength exponentially decreases with distance. SCP-3839 is capable of restructuring lipids into various shapes and structures, usually in the shape of crude hands, arms, or mouths. When not moving, SCP-3839 emits a yellow cloud composed of aerosolized lipids and proteins, most of which are unseen in ordinary organisms. Inhalation or skin absorption of these products causes an anomalous effect on humans in its vicinity; nearly all humans begin to lose their self-preservation instinct within 1 minute of exposure, and all fear response pathways completely shut down within 8 minutes. Autopsies of recovered subjects has revealed the formation of small growths of sphingomyelin1 in the amygdala2, encasing and absorbing neurons and glial cells. SCP-3839 will then attempt to catch affected humans with its limbs. Once SCP-3839 has gripped a human with its appendage, SCP-3839 will extend a smaller, tube-like appendage and expel a thick slurry from it until it hits the targeted human. When this slurry comes in contact with human tissue, it reverts human osteocytes, chondrocytes, myocytes, and adipocytes3 into mesenchymal stem cells, with complete conversion normally occuring within four minutes4. These stem cells will differentiate into a new form of adipocyte, which coagulate into a homogenous mass and absorb the remaining neurons. SCP-3839 will then proceed to move itself towards the remains and absorb the new adipocyte mass into itself, leaving the remainder behind. Biopsy of the outer mass of SCP-3839 has shown that it possesses genetic material from 36 humans, 9 of which match to former Prometheus Labs personnel, most notably Dr. ███, Dr. ████, and Dr. Javier Pineda. CT scanning of SCP-3839 revealed a large mass in its center; this mass appears to be composed of a dense network of neurons arranged in 37 discrete clusters. 35 of these directly link to a larger cluster in the center of the mass, with smaller links between each other. The 37th is isolated from all other clusters and encased in a crystalline shell. This shell is composed mainly of crystalline fat and appears to be in a constant state of equilibrium, being dissolved from without and reconstituted from within. All clusters have exhibited significant neural activity, with the central cluster and cluster 37 the most active. Tests using isotopic labeling have shown that upon conversion and ingestion of a human subject, a new cluster will form from the subject's neurons. Brain biopsies have determined that SCP-3839's clusters are composed of a new form of brain matter, with specialized adipocytes replacing ordinary glial cells. SCP-3839 will occasionally enter an Eglah state, growing a single large appendage and occasionally manifesting crystalline spikes or various liquids from the end. SCP-3839 will then attack itself with this appendage. SCP-3839 sustains no lasting damage during these states; any damage is quickly repaired by SCP-3839 rearranging its mass to fill the wounds. Notably, SCP-3839 will usually form a thickened mass of compacted fat to protect its clusters. This state ends when the appendage either retracts or is severed. The time interval between Eglah events has steadily increased over time; rising from an average of 2 days upon initial containment in 2000, to 3 weeks. However, the duration has increased from 10 minutes to over an hour as of the most recent event. Eglah events have become increasingly destructive during SCP-3839's time in containment. Recently, SCP-3839 has begun to show signs of increasing intelligence. Addendum 3839-A: Notable Eglah Events For the sake of clarity, the hostile appendage will be designated SCP-3839-ALPHA. Event Number Duration Notes 12 13 minutes First recorded instance of 3839-ALPHA attempting to play dead to launch a second attack. 3839-ALPHA was torn from 3839's mass, ceased motion completely, and was reabsorbed after 2 minutes. 122 15 minutes 3839-ALPHA attached itself to the ceiling using an adhesive substance exuded from its end. It then lifted 3839 off of the containment cell floor and attempted to repeatedly slam it against the floor and walls of the cell. 3839 suffered severe blunt force trauma after 7 hits, at which point 3839-ALPHA experienced structural failure and separated from 3839. 3839-ALPHA was removed from the ceiling and reabsorbed by 3839. A sample of the adhesive was successfully taken for study. 237 22 minutes First recorded instance of 3839 growing human-like hands on the ends of its appendages. 289 27 minutes First recorded instance of 3839-ALPHA using chemical attacks, specifically, an organic chemical agent intended to induce apoptosis in fat cells. 355 34 minutes First recorded instance of 3839 emulating human vocalizations. 3839 vocalized in a distorted female voice, causing 3839-ALPHA to cease its attack. 3839-ALPHA remained motionless until it was reabsorbed. 381 38 minutes 3839 extended an appendage and breached the NaOH sprinklers directly above 3839-ALPHA, destroying it. First recorded instance of 3839 using its cell to its advantage. Containment layout has been updated. 509 72 minutes First recorded instance of 3839 attempting to address personnel during an Eglah event. 3839 spoke in a deeper, distorted voice and was recorded as saying "He was a fool." 602 88 minutes Final Eglah event. 3839-ALPHA formed a roughly humanoid shape and attacked 3839 repeatedly, ignoring all damage inflicted to itself by 3839's counterattacks. Just before reaching the center cluster of 3839, 3839-ALPHA was forcibly torn from 3839's main body, and repeatedly slammed into the ground and walls until finally being ripped apart by 3839 and absorbed. Upon absorption, 3839 moved jerkily and erratically for 9 minutes before collapsing into a near-liquid state. 3839 regained its previous form after 2 days. Update ██/██/14: Eglah events have ceased completely, and SCP-3839 has become more docile in temperament. SCP-3839 has begun to occasionally split a portion of its mass off and attempt to shape it. These constructs have been designated SCP-3839-BETA. SCP-3839-BETA instances usually have a crude humanoid shape but tend to rapidly collapse into a pile of fat. Instances that do not collapse are eventually reabsorbed by SCP-3839. SCP-3839-BETA instances have gradually become more refined over time, and last longer before collapse and reabsorption. Update ██/██/18: All new instances of SCP-3839-BETA vaguely resemble the late Dr. Pineda, and are fully mobile. These SCP-3839-BETA instances are capable of locomotion and distorted vocalization, and generally attempt to move towards the cell's camera or observation ports. Collected Recordings of SCP-3839-BETA Access Granted. SCP-3839-BETA: Are you there? SCP-3839-BETA: Hello? SCP-3839-BETA: Is anyone out there? SCP-3839-BETA: How did I get here? SCP-3839-BETA: Let me out! SCP-3839-BETA: My name is Dr. Javier Ignacio Pineda. My name is Dr. Javier Ignacio Pineda. Oh god… SCP-3839-BETA: I hear you out there. Please help me. SCP-3839-BETA: Please. I can't hold it forever. SCP-3839-BETA: Help me kill it. SCP-3839-BETA: Who's there? I feel someone else. [Note: Dr. Velasquez had been reassigned to SCP-3839 after Incident SCP-3233-N█.] SCP-3839-BETA: You feel familiar. Do I remember you? SCP-3839-BETA: Memories. I'm still here. Slugs. SCP-3839-BETA: Monique? Is that you? Please tell me you're safe. SCP-3839-BETA: I never wanted any of this. SCP-3839-BETA: At least I get to see you one more time. SCP-3839-BETA: Please. Footnotes 1.

SCP-3840	keter	Item #: SCP-3840 Special Containment Procedures: Due to the size of the area SCP-3840 can manifest in, the entity cannot be physically contained. Containment will focus on disseminating fictional accounts of SCP-3840 sightings, intending to convince the general population that information pertaining to the anomaly is derived from an urban legend, along with explanations that attribute sightings to native fauna or hallucinations. Amnestics may be administered if witnesses attempt to heavily spread information on SCP-3840. As radio broadcasts from the object are interpreted as number station broadcasts and are only known to fringe groups, further containment on these is unnecessary. Revision: Attempting communication with SCP-3840 is forbidden. Description: SCP-3840 is an emaciated humanoid entity that manifests in the Boreal forest region of Canada. It appears to be covered in severe burn wounds and is estimated to be 2m in height. Manifestations involve SCP-3840 being ejected out of a section of the forest, reaching a height of 50m above the canopy, and descending to another forested section 20m away. This process will repeat for a variable length of time, normally around three minutes though reaching an hour on occasion, during which SCP-3840 moves toward the nearest population center until reaching a distance of 20km from the location. Demanifestation has not been directly observed. Of note is that, at all points during movement, SCP-3840 appears to be largely limp. Certain objects that enter an undetermined radius around SCP-3840 will be pushed by an unseen force into following the same "leaping" motions as the entity, invariably colliding with trees or the ground in the process. These objects will vanish when SCP-3840 demanifests, and do not appear in subsequent manifestations. The most frequently observed objects seen alongside the entity are deceased animals, damaged articles of clothing, and computers. Shortwave radio broadcasts at a frequency of 2156 kHz are released from SCP-3840 when manifested. These broadcasts consist entirely of a repeating monotone buzzing sound. A sample of this audio is below. WARNING: As this file may be loud, personnel are advised to lower the volume before listening. No variations have so far been observed. Sightings of entities similar to SCP-3840 have been reported. The most common describe a humanoid rapidly flying through a forested area, frequently colliding with trees while followed by indiscernible objects. An investigation is in progress. The area around the camp site, photographed by Agent Szmurlo. Addendum: On 21-August-2015, Foundation assets began detecting a stationary radio broadcast at 2156 kHz, originating from Spray Valley Provincial Park in Alberta, Canada. The signal consisted entirely of a female voice repeatedly saying "Hello?" in English and French. After twelve hours the broadcast ceased, and undercover Foundation operatives were dispatched to the location. Operatives discovered a camp site within a forested area. A heavily damaged camping van and the remains of a makeshift radio tower1 were present at the location, along with burnt articles of clothing. Cyrielle Mercier, a member of multiple online conspiracy theory forums, and a cell phone that belonged to an acquaintance were found inside the van. Relevant files are available below. ▷ Investigation 3840/10 Recovered Files ▽ Investigation 3840/10 Recovered Files The following are files recovered from the cell phone found with Mercier. A majority of data on the phone was corrupted.

Facial expressions suggest that they are uncomfortable. Mercier is looking over her shoulder at a collapsed and burnt tree, which is largely obscured by the chairs. The upper torso of a body under the tree is partially visible, surrounded by blood and possessing clothing matching that of the other photographed female individual (hereafter Subject 2). A helical antenna extends from behind Mercier's chair, suspected to be originating from the unseen head of Subject 2. Designation: REC-3840/4 Document Type: Video <BEGIN LOG> The interior of the van can be seen, with the camera apparently at the rear bunk bed. All side windows are covered with blinds, and the white "parawatch.███" sign is obscuring the windshield. The camera momentarily shakes, briefly showing the edges of a black metal object on the bed. Heavy breathing is audible. Loud scraping sounds are heard outside the van. The scraping stops after 30 seconds, and a heavy impact occurs on the left side of the van. There is a second impact from the opposite side, and over the next minute the impacts occur more frequently on all sides of the van. The windshields break and the sign falls over. Only darkness can be seen through the window. A hand grabs onto the black metal object. The impacts stop. Mercier can be heard from outside the van. Mercier: Really now? The van door opens and Subject 2 steps in, who turns to look at the subject holding the camera. She appears to be unharmed. Subject 2: Could you quiet down in here? You're going to get the ranger— The phone falls onto the bed, obscuring the camera. Three gunshots and a loud impact are heard.

Subject 3: —been nice enough. Subject 3 is abruptly thrown to the side by an unseen force. Subject 1 does not appear to react, and continues walking to the radio tower until reaching it after a minute. The tower is shoddily built, with radio equipment on a metal platform that is welded to numerous support beams. A tangle of cables extends from the back of the equipment and connects to two portable electric generators, which can be heard running. Subject 1 grabs the phone and drops it onto the ground, with the camera facing upward. Severe burn wounds are seen on his right hand until he walks out of view. SCP-3840 is momentarily observed in the canopy, followed by a severed arm. Two minutes later the whirring stops and Subject 1 walks past the phone. There is a metal creaking sound and one of the generators is ejected through the tower, causing it to violently collapse. Metal debris lifts into the air and follow the path of the generator. A wet crunch is heard in the distance. <END LOG> Designation: REC-3840/8 Document Type: Video <BEGIN LOG> A person entirely encompassed in flames sits on the ground, holding a beer bottle.

Villeneuve: Did anything eventful happen to you? Did you see anything out of the ordinary? Mercier: One of the mountain rangers came over on a noise complaint and confiscated some stuff, but other than that it was fine? I don't get what this is about. Villeneuve: Mercier, we have seen the videos and photos you and your friend took. Nothing about this was fine. Mercier: I—what are you on about? Is shutting up to not interfere so odd? Villeneuve: We found you unconscious in a burnt camper van. That's normal? Mercier: Yes, and? God, you actually locked me up to know this. Villeneuve: Do I need to remind you what was out there? I have the photos. Mercier: Jesus, just—look. If a ranger needs a rifle, would you give them a rifle? Villeneuve: If it is necessary for defense, yes. Mercier: Right.

SCP-3841	safe	Item #: SCP-3841 Special Containment Procedures: Cover stories attributing the debris ring around Luyten b to asteroid impacts and other non-anomalous stellar phenomena have been disseminated. Discovery of SCP-3841 by civilian astronomers is impossible, due to the planet's atmospheric haze. However, in the event this does occur, any resultant research will be discredited by Foundation-run academic journals, which will publish their own papers presenting different explanations for the discoveries. Amnesticization of involved persons may be performed if deemed necessary. Four monitoring satellites and surface observation probes have been deployed by Foundation extrasolar exploration vessels to monitor Luyten b for signs of further activity. Luyten b is classified as off-limits for potential human interstellar colonization in the near future. Description: SCP-3841 designates the remnants of a halted K-Class event (K-3841) that occurred on the exoplanet Luyten b1 at an unknown time in the recent past. The exact details of the event are unclear, though it is known to have resulted in the extinction of all life on Luyten b, including its native sapient civilization (hereafter "Luytenians"). The primary cause of K-3841 is presumed to have been SCP-3841-Ω, an organism whose skeletal remains span two continents on Luyten b. The cadaver is 3,300 km long and is hexapedal in nature, similar in structure to the bodies of Luytenians, with the frontmost two legs possessing feet that could act as graspers. When alive it likely had a skull with the same structure of Luytenian skulls, having two lower jaws and an upper jaw, but the entire head region has been destroyed. Fragments of it have been found in craters across the planet, in orbits around Luyten b, and in orbits around Luyten's Star at the escape velocity of Luyten b. Surrounding the lower portion of the skeleton is a crater with a 300 km radius, likely the site where SCP-3841-Ω began its formation. The hind legs and tail structure of the skeleton are incomplete, suggesting that the organism had not fully formed when it expired. What anomalous means the organism used to stay alive in spite of its size are unclear. What substance forms the skeleton is unknown. No tools, such as drills and laser carvers, have penetrated its surface, and no amount of applied heat or force have caused damage. Decaying organic matter is attached to the sides of the skeleton, holding some sections together, which progressively converts into a reddish-brown slurry of organic chemicals that falls from SCP-3841-Ω. This currently covers much of the region surrounding SCP-3841-Ω, filling former lakes and oceans. The last of the matter attached to the skeleton is expected to finish decaying in fifty years. Other structures of anomalous origin have been discovered in the vicinity of SCP-3841-Ω. Exploration teams investigating Luytenian cities found several structures of concentric circles formed from thousands of Luytenian cadavers, all of which had been attached by fusion of the limbs. Skyscrapers, primarily those ringing the crater, have calcified organic growths formed from fused Luytenian bodies that extend in directions away from the crater's epicenter. These reach lengths of up to 0.6 km and heights of up to 1km, many having collapsed in recent years. Symbols of potentially thaumic nature are also carved into mountain ranges, islands, and remaining skyscrapers. Luyten b is barren as a result of K-3841. No living fauna, flora, and microscopic life have been found, and all regions previously containing liquid water are entirely dry. CO2 and methane are the most abundant atmospheric gasses, forming a dense haze that encompasses the planet and blocks light from Luyten's star. Atmospheric conditions and radiation levels are consistent with those of global nuclear fallout.2 A gradually dissipating debris ring of rocky matter orbits Luyten b. Its origins are uncertain. Little knowledge exists on Luytenian civilization. Present observations indicate that they had reached the same level of technological advancement as modern humanity, though what culture they had has not been determined. Book-like objects and the remnants of computer systems have been uncovered but have all contained cognitohazardous depictions of SCP-3841-Ω that induce vegetative states in organisms that view them.3 All Luytenian cadavers discovered to date lack a brain-equivalent organ, despite the presence of empty spaces in their skulls where a brain could reside. Most cadavers were found with their heads pointing in the direction of SCP-3841-Ω's crater. While the exact events of K-3841 are not understood, hypotheses have been proposed to explain the death of SCP-3841-Ω. Initially it was believed that mass nuclear bombardment of the head caused its destruction, which, while potentially an explanation for the nuclear fallout, was ruled out after tests with nuclear equipment failed to damage recovered skeleton fragments. No other known weaponry possessed by the Luytenians could have caused the damage. The leading hypothesis is that, during the formation of SCP-3841-Ω, it gained such a mass that it generated a gravitational field sufficient enough to alter the orbit of a small moon of Luyten b. Continued alterations from the field and further size growth lead to the moon's orbit intersecting with SCP-3841-Ω, resulting in it directly impacting the head. The accidental death then halted K-3841. This is consistent with the existence of the debris field and the wide spread of skull fragments. Luyten b is not expected to be habitable for the next thousand years, if ever. Addendum.3841.1: SCP-3841-Ω Decay Slurry Alterations From 2030 to 2033, probes that had been continually analyzing the chemicals in the SCP-3841-Ω decayed matter slurry detected increasing quantities of chemicals similar in nature to amino acids. RNA and DNA equivalent structures emerged soon after. In 2034 the first single-celled organisms were observed, and as of 2035 colonies of multicellular organisms have formed in the slurry and the land bordering it. The colonies primarily convert CO2 to O2. Additional probes and monitoring devices are scheduled for deployment on Luyten b. Previously predicted time spans for habitability are under reconsideration. Footnotes 1. Orbiting in the habitable zone of red dwarf Luyten's Star, 12.20 light-years away, with a mass of 2.63 Earth masses. The planet is predicted to have been highly Earth-like prior to K-3841. 2. Supported by the presence of highly irradiated craters in cities and previously inhabited locales, mainly those near SCP-3841-Ω, undetonated dud nuclear weaponry, and emptied missile silos at discovered military sites. 3. The amount of cognitohazards present in information sources decreases the further away the source was from SCP-3841-Ω's crater. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3841" by NatVoltaic, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3842	safe	Live feed of SCP-3842 Item #: SCP-3842 Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3842 must be kept within a safe with a 10x10x10 centimeter interior, with a 2 centimeter thick rubber padding on all sides. A blast-resistant camera has been placed within the safe to monitor SCP-3842 at all times. Any time SCP-3842 is removed from the safe, it must be handled with insulated rubber gloves. Description: SCP-3842 is a standard 5 millimeter red LED that emits a variable voltage of static electricity from both its cathode and anode leg, even if it is not connected to anything else. The brightness of the LED directly correlates with the outputted voltage level. SCP-3842 can produce anywhere from 0 to 8192 volts. SCP-3842 was initially discovered following a house fire in a suburban neighborhood of ███████████, Ohio. SCP-3842 was determined to have been on a desk in the house's garage, and was likely the source of the fire. Reports from local authorities have shown that while the home had 4 residents, only 3 were found, one of which having been killed by the fire. Foundation assistance was requested after several searches conducted to locate this fourth civilian, a 38 year old male by the name of Robert ███████, were largely unsuccessful. Each resident has been designated PoI-3842-1 through 4, with PoI-3842-4 referring to Robert. Addendum 3842.1: Interview Log + Open File - Close File Interviewed: PoI-3842-2 Interviewer: Dr. ███ Foreword: PoI-3842-2 is the wife of PoI-3842-4, Susan ███████. This interview was conducted approximately one week after the incident. PoI-3842-2 was unaware of Dr. ███'s affiliation with the Foundation, instead believing him to be a local government official. <Begin Log> Dr. ███: Good afternoon, Mrs. ███████. I hope that all of this isn't too stressful for you; you've been through a lot recently. PoI-3842-2: Thanks, and you too… Have you found anything at all on Robert? I'm worried sick about him, I don't want to lose him too… Dr. ███: I'm afraid not, Mrs. ███████. The only evidence we could find was a small, electronic LED. Would you happen to know anything about something like that? PoI-3842-2: Well, Robert did get Jonathan1 an electronics kit for his birthday, which… would've been today… The last thing he said to me was that he was going to make Jonathan's present special for him. He really loved that boy, he wanted to show him as much of the world as he could… PoI-3842-2 looks towards the ground, with tears beginning to form in her eyes. Dr. ███: Take your time if you need to, I understand that this is quite upsetting for you. PoI-3842-2: It's… It's fine. I still have my baby girl Hope2 to keep me company, at least. Dr. ███: Okay. For the sake of record-keeping, would you mind telling what exactly happened when your house burned down? PoI-3842-2: Sure, um… I was just making dinner, I thought the smoke detector was just going off again because I'm terrible at it. Jonathan… he really was the investigative type, always looking too far into things… he didn't believe it was because of me. He went down to the garage and saw the flames, yelling for me to grab Hope and get out of there. He was determined to rescue his father… I never saw either of them again… Dr. ███: I'm sorry, Mrs. ███████. That seems to be all the time we have for today. We'll be sure to keep you informed if we do find anything. <End Log> Addendum 3842.2: Recovered Document The following was found on a folded sheet of paper in one of the pockets of PoI-3842-3. + Open File - Close File -.. --- - / -... --- -.-- / .- -. -.. / -.. .- ... .... / -- .- -. / -.- . . .--. .. -. --. / . ...- . .-. -.-- --- -. . / ... .- ..-. . / ..-. .-. --- -- / - .... . / . ...- .. .-.. / -.. .-. .-.-.- / . .-.. . -.-. - .-. --- -.3 Pictured below is a drawing in crayon of what appears to be PoI-3842-3 and PoI-3842-4 in costumes similar to that of stereotypical superhero characters.

SCP-3843	keter	Item #: SCP-3843 Special Containment Procedures: Scherbius-Decker Learning Computer Psi-22 ("ASA") is to search gaming forums and websites for keywords1 indicating the presence of an SCP-3843-1 instance. Occurrences of these keywords are to be investigated by Foundation personnel. If an instance of SCP-3843-1 is confirmed at the reported location, it is to be delivered to Site-11 immediately and its owner administered a Class-A amnestic. Foundation elements placed within major game manufacturers are to search outgoing products for the presence of SCP-3843-created code. If the presence of this code is confirmed, the located instance of SCP-3843-1 is to be pulled immediately and replaced with an unaffected copy. All games that have come into contact with the instance of SCP-3843-1 are to be searched and dealt with similarly. All testing involving SCP-3843 must be approved by at least one member of Level 3 personnel. Testing is to be performed by a member of D-Class personnel in a sealed chamber featuring one television and chair. Research personnel are to observe via an adjoining chamber. No personnel other than this D-Class are to enter the sealed chamber during testing. In order to maintain the SCP-3843 currently in containment, it is to be allowed to periodically infect a new instance of SCP-3843-1. After this is done, the original instance of SCP-3843-1 is to be destroyed. Historical Record - Emergency Containment Procedures Close In 1983, due to mass numbers of SCP-3843-1 instances becoming exposed to the public, the Foundation began emergency containment by artificially inducing a crash of the video-game market through use of Foundation elements placed into major players in said market. This was accomplished through multiple means, including: The funding of competing home computer companies through several Foundation fronts. Artificial over-saturation of the video game market via Foundation-owned companies and undercover elements in several existing companies. Use of Foundation elements in existing game publishers to encourage poor business decisions and practices. Industrial sabotage of several upcoming projects. The crash brought about via these factors was sufficient to achieve majority containment of SCP-3843. Containment of remaining SCP-3843-1 instances is ongoing. However, due to the nature of SCP-3843, such an operation is considered to be indefinite in length. Description: SCP-3843 is a non-player character present in an as-of-yet unknown number of video games which is capable of physically and mentally altering players. A game inhabited by SCP-3843, hereafter referred to as SCP-3843-1, is capable of passing SCP-3843 onto other games in its physical vicinity2. Infection of an SCP-3843-1 instance by SCP-3843 does not appear to be permanent, as SCP-3843 has been observed to disappear from instances of SCP-3843-1 after a period of five to ten years. The range necessary for infection to occur is inconsistent, with some games becoming infected even while in neighboring buildings, while others require direct physical contact. SCP-3843 does not appear to be able to infect games that are solely multiplayer by means of an online connection. It will also not appear in an SCP-3843-1 instance with both multiplayer and single-player aspects if that instance is connected to the internet. SCP-3843 will appear in an SCP-3843-1 instance as a non-player character suited to the game's setting, almost always identified as 'Sam', 'Sammy', or some other variation of the name. While SCP-3843 will adapt its appearance and basic gameplay role to suit the game it is inhabiting, its dialogue (in the cases where it has any) is usually either unsuited to the game setting entirely or wholly incoherent. The primary anomalous effects of SCP-3843 become activated when either, in-game, the player character interacts with it or it interacts with the player character. At this point, the player will begin to undergo permanent alterations in order to reflect the character they are controlling. No alterations will occur if the player simply ignores SCP-3843. SCP-3843's mental alterations usually manifest as the player receiving skills and knowledge their player character would feasibly possess. Testing has shown examples of players, for example, receiving knowledge regarding the proper use of firearms while playing action games where they are prominent. Although physical alterations made to a player by SCP-3843 are usually relatively minor and not especially dangerous, this is not the case if the instance of SCP-3843-1 features a non-human player character. In that event, the alterations made to the player to cause them to resemble said character are physically traumatic and often result in death during or shortly after the process. SCP-3843 appears to have a significant effect on the perceptions of its victims while the instance of SCP-3843-1 is being played in that victims of SCP-3843 are unable to register the alterations they are going through until they stop playing the game. SCP-3843 is believed to be the creation of Indigo Games, a small anomalous games company which was active from the years 1980 to 1983. (See Interview 3843-1.) Addendum 3843-1 (Retrieved Instances Log): The following is a list and summary of SCP-3843 containment breaches which have occurred since its classification as an SCP on 10/04/1983. In all cases, Agents were dispatched, successfully retrieved the instance of SCP-3843-1 and administered amnestics to witnesses as appropriate. All possible infected games in the vicinity of the recovered instance were safely disposed of. Game: Super Mario Bros (1985), Nintendo Entertainment System Date: 12/21/1985 SCP-3843 Role:3 SCP-3843 appears as a 'koopa' enemy with a white shell in World 1-1. Alterations begin when the player kills this enemy. Incident Summary: Andrew Calhoun, 22, writes to tabloid Weekly World News, claiming that he had instantly grown a substantial mustache after playing the game Super Mario Bros. A reporter sent by the paper, while investigating the game, also instantly grows a mustache reminiscent of the game's titular character. Foundation elements within Weekly World News report anomalous activity at this point and a dispatched Agent retrieves the SCP-3843-1 instance. Both Calhoun and the reporter are thoroughly shaved and dosed with a Class-B amnestic. Game: Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (1990), MSX2 Date: 12/20/1990 SCP-3843 Role: SCP-3843 appears as a boss character encountered halfway through the game, identified as 'Salty Sam', a pirate-themed former KGB agent who uses a water cutter as a weapon. Before fighting the player character, he engages in a lengthy monologue regarding 'Salt and Meats [sic]' and food shortages in the enemy base. Alterations begin when the boss fight is initiated. Dialogue Sample Close SCP-3843: So…you're the guy that's called Sold [sic] Snake by everyone, huh! Well that's just good for me because I'm looking out to try and find some salts and meats in this base of ours ZANZIBAR LAND. And well…I used to be inside the KGB Snake, until I got caught and betrayed by those KGB people. It really made me angry when that happened Solid Snake, and when later BIG BOSS invited me with salt and meats to his house in ZANZIBAR LAND that really got my stomach hungering…but all of the bullets you have shooting at us. Well, needless to say, there are not many salt and meats in ZANZIBAR LAND at this. Time. (Monologue continues for a further fifteen minutes of clicking through dialogue.) SCP-3843: Snake…I'm going to kill you and the KGB now and get all my salt and meats at ZANZIBAR LAND! Have at me! Incident Summary: Daryl McKenzie, 24, is shot and killed while attempting to break into a secure military installation near his hometown of ██████. Analysis of security footage from the incident shows Mr. McKenzie using both advanced stealth tactics and firearms in which he had never received any training. Subsequent search of his home by the UIU revealed the presence of the SCP-3843-1 instance, which was recovered during transit by Agent Cobb and brought into Foundation custody. Game: Pac-Man (1990), Game Boy Date: 04/11/1995 SCP-3843 Role: SCP-3843 appears as a fifth 'ghost' enemy, identified as 'Sammy', which chases the player character through the map. Alterations begin when either SCP-3843 kills the player character or the player character eats SCP-3843. Incident Summary: Alan Carver, 35, is arrested by police and taken to a local hospital after a passerby witnesses him eating a neighborhood cat in his backyard. Victim dies shortly before arriving at hospital. Later analysis of the body shows the cause of death to be apparent starvation. Victim had suffered significant yellowing of the skin and expansion of the skull, causing damage to their neck due to increased weight. Additionally, skin had grown over both ears, both nostrils and one eye. Agents dispatched to deal with the situation recover the SCP-3843-1 instance at the victims home. Game: Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee (2002), GameCube Date: 07/06/2003 SCP-3843 Role: SCP-3843 appears as a non-playable boss character identified as 'Samutenshi', a colossal white avian monster. Notably, the original Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee did not feature any non-playable boss characters. Alterations begin either when the player first attacks SCP-3843, or SCP-3843 first attacks the player. Incident Summary: Foundation Agents in the city of █████ are dispatched to the site of an apartment building which spontaneously collapsed with no apparent cause. Inspection of the debris reveals the corpse of Aarav Kapoor, 20, which had expanded to fill an entire floor of the apartment building and caused the collapse in the process. Notably, while Mr. Kapoor's skin and muscles expanded during alteration, his skeleton and other internal organs did not. All witnesses and survivors were dosed with Class-A amnestics and a cover story centered around sub-standard construction was produced to account for the building's collapse. The remains of the SCP-3843-1 instance were recovered on site and its nature as formerly containing SCP-3843 was confirmed through analysis of its reconstructed code. Game: Mass Effect 2 (2010), PlayStation 3 Date: 02/04/2010 SCP-3843 Role: SCP-3843 appears as a blind supply officer named Samuel Belkira aboard the player character's ship. When interacted with, SCP-3843 rants at length regarding food shortages above the ship, especially regarding 'salt and meats [sic]', before giving the player a quest to solve said food shortages4. Alterations begin upon initiation of dialogue. Dialogue Sample Close SCP-3843: Commander, I'm going to talk on you now. Okay. Commander Shepard5: I've always got time for the crew of the Normandy. What do you need? SCP-3843: Now listen at this. Okay. The ship Normandy's hasn't got enough salt and meats, Commander Shepard. If we don't get more, we're all going to starve to death out here in. (ten second pause) Deep space. Okay. I really need my salt and meats, Commander, and I've got a hankering for some of those things. My name's Samuel Belkira. I'm a supply officer just looking for some of you know what, just doing what comes natural. Haha. Also I'm blind. By the way, Commander, have you seen some salt and meats on the Normandy? Sometimes they climb up into the vents and that's just a big bag of worms. That's way too much for any one man to eat at one time, Commander, and I'm even blind. So it's something that we've got to deal with. Are you feeling okay? Commander Shepard: That does sound like a problem. But what can I do about it? SCP-3843: Salt and meats. Incident Summary: Foundation is alerted when the home of Catherine Herrera, 32, violently explodes in a flash of blue light. Agents investigating the debris recover both Ms. Herrera's charred corpse and the remains of the SCP-3843-1 instance. A suitable cover story involving a gas explosion is provided to the public. Due to the fact that Ms. Herrera maintained an active blog in which she detailed her playthroughs of various games, researchers have been able to build a theory regarding exactly what caused the explosion during the alteration process. In-game, Ms. Herrera was playing as an 'Adept' character class, centered around using 'mass effect fields' to fling enemies and objects via an implant in the player character's body. When SCP-3843 attempted to translate these fictional scientific concepts, and the implant that utilizes them, into the real world, the resulting incompatibility with standard reality caused a violent rejection of its container - which, in this case, was Ms. Herrera's body. Game: Nier: Automata (2017), PlayStation 4 Date: 09/22/2017 SCP-3843 Role: SCP-3843 appears as a merchant character within the game's factory area, identified as 7H6. As a merchant, SCP-3843 has two hundred of an item called 'Meats [sic]' in stock. Said item is non-functional. SCP-3843's dialogue consists of a lengthy speech primarily centered around how, as an android, it is unable to eat meat, and the distress this causes it. Dialogue Sample Close SCP-3843: Hey kid, come on over here and let my words in you. 9S7: We should go see what he wants, 2B. SCP-3843: Now listen you people, okay. I'm an android now. I've seen a lot of things on the planet Earth, okay. But I haven't see [sic] any meats. Only salt. I'm an android now so I don't find any salt or meats here. There's a lot of existentialism and I'm just looking for meats right now. The aliens and the machine lifeforms killed all the meats and destroyed all the meats crop so it's not good anymore. I'll sell you some meats if you're interested, okay. Incident Summary: Sightings of a 'robot' in Moscow, Russia attract Foundation attention due to the consistency between reports and photographic evidence of the entity. Foundation Agents track the entity to an apartment shared by Alexander Teterev, 18, Vadim Fokim, 20, and Timur Chuprin, 21, where it escapes initial pursuit. The bodies of Vadim Fokim and Timur Chuprin are found at the scene. Autopsy reveals the cause of death to be the sudden appearance of various mechanical implants within their bodies, causing severe internal bleeding. The robotic entity, currently believed to be Alexander Teterev, has not yet been located. Writings found in the shared apartment suggests that the three were aware of SCP-3843's effects, and hoped to utilize them in order to improve their physical capabilities8. Interview 3843-1 Close On 12/10/2012, Matthew Hendricks, a former employee of Indigo Games, contacted the Foundation via use of SCP-3843-related keywords during a 911 call. He was subsequently taken into custody and interviewed. Hendricks cooperated fully during this process. Interviewer: Dr McCall Interviewed: Matthew Hendricks <Begin Interview> Dr. McCall: Well, Mr. Hendricks, I'd like to begin by saying we're all very grateful for you stepping forward in this matter. Hendricks: No problem. Dr. McCall: Is there anything you'd like before we begin? Glass of water, a coffee maybe? Hendricks: Just…just a water, thanks. Dr. McCall: Water, please. (Research Assistant Bryant leaves and returns several moments later with a glass of water, which she gives to Hendricks.) Hendricks: Thanks. Dr. McCall: No problem. So, I'd like for us to begin by talking about Indigo Games. Your former employers, yes? (Hendricks chuckles.) Dr. McCall: This is amusing to you, sir? Hendricks: No! God, no. It's just…you calling them my employers. I was one third of the company, for God's sake. It was three guys in a garage. (Pause.) Dr. McCall: I'm sorry, Mr. Hendricks, but I find that really hard to believe. Our records show several anomalous items originating from your company, and to suggest that all of them were the work of three people… Hendricks: It's true. I guess we just…we just knew what we were doing. Dr. McCall: I…see. Well then, can you please tell me about these other two individuals? Hendricks: Besides me, there was Alan Tunney9 - he was kind of the boss - and Laura Weeks10. She handled the, uh…well, the magic stuff. Alan handled the business end of things. Most of the actual, well, coding was left to me. Like I said, we weren't much of a company. Dr. McCall: This Laura Weeks…she was a thaumaturgist, then? (Hendricks smiles.) Hendricks: Heh. She'd always say that, too. But come on, it's magic. Calling it something different doesn't change anything. Dr. McCall: So. How did Sam come about, then? (Pause.) Dr. McCall: Mr. Hendricks? (Pause.) Hendricks: It was Alan's idea, at first. I swear. Tron had just come out the year before and he - and he just loved that goddamn movie. Watched it I don't know how many times. Every time he'd come back and say the same thing, waving his arms around like it was the first time he'd come up with it. Dr McCall: I assume the idea was about… Hendricks: (interrupting) Yes, it was about Sam! (Pause.) Hendricks: Sorry. Didn't mean to lose my temper there. Yeah, it was…it was about that. He wanted to make virtual reality, like in Tron. So you could get sucked into the game and play around inside that world, then come out when you got bored. Dr. McCall: That sounds like a rather large undertaking. Hendricks: Yeah. (Laughs.) Yeah, it was. Everything we'd done until then, that other stuff you'd said you'd seen, that was like…well, nothing. Bells and whistles. A little stuff stuck in the back of the game to make you feel a certain way, or to have these tiny tiny tiny effects on the real world. (Pause.) Hendricks: But, well, what Alan wanted, Alan got. Laura and I just sort of got dragged along. So Laura went off searching for a way to do what Alan was talking about. Told me she was going to check at the library. (Chuckles.) Don't know what sort of library would have what we needed, but whatever. I went with it…I went with a lot of things. Dr. McCall: I assume she found whatever it is she was looking for? Hendricks: That she did. She comes back three days later with this big-ass book. A.A. Gilford's What Solomon Left Us: First Tool of a Summoner. I can't forget that fucking title. I knew it was a bad idea the moment she brought in that fucking Necronomicon-looking book, but I didn't say anything. God knows why. I just sat down and listened while they talked about it, and I didn't say a thing. Dr. McCall: Am I safe in assuming you summoned something for this purpose, then? Hendricks: Yeah. The idea was we'd put the thing we summoned into a game, like people used to do with rings and amulets and that kind of stuff, then give it the instruction to…well, make Tron happen. God, it sounds so stupid now. Dr. McCall: And what was it you summoned for this purpose? A demon? Hendricks: No, no, no. We were stupid, but we weren't that stupid. Straight away, we agreed no demons. So we…went the other direction. Dr. McCall: The…other direction? Hendricks: An angel. Dr. McCall: Oh. Hendricks: I know, I know it sounds bad now, but at the time it seemed like a reasonable option to take, you know? Demons bad, angels good, that's the way we thought it worked. I didn't…we didn't know what we were doing. Dr. McCall: I would hope not. Hendricks: So…we managed to summon it, needless to say. Meat and salt to draw it close, the three interlocking shapes to bring it to us, and the circle to bind it. That's how Laura said it worked, anyway. It was surprisingly easy, you know. Honestly, I didn't actually expect it to work. But it did. Dr. McCall: And the entity was originally bound to which game? Hendricks: I think it was Raiders of the Lost Ark. We were all real excited to try it, obviously, and Alan went first, because of course he did. Dr. McCall: And? Hendricks: Well, he learnt how to use a whip. But that was it, pretty much. I don't mean to talk shit about, you know, a messenger of God, but I don't think it was that smart. At least not in the way humans are smart. It got it confused: instead of bringing the player into the game, it brought the game into the player. Which was still pretty amazing, of course. Just not what Alan had wanted, so he sulked about it a little. We decided to shelve it for a while. I'd been working on some vanilla games in my spare time, so… Dr. McCall: Vanilla? Hendricks: Oh. That's what we called the games we made that weren't, well, 'anomalous'. Those were to keep us afloat so we could keep doing the stuff we were really interested in, to be honest. One of them, some stupid dog maze game, was pretty much done. I had a contact over at Atari, so I sent it over, had him check it out. Of course, at the time, I didn't know…well, there's no way I could have known… Dr. McCall: You didn't know it could spread. Hendricks: No. No, I did not. It must have infected a lot of stock over there. A whole lot. And that Christmas… (Pause.) Hendricks: …that Christmas, E.T. came out. I know someone, probably you guys, covered up what happened. Pulled the pictures. But I saw them. The bodies. Their faces. Even thinking about the movie makes me want to throw up. Dr. McCall: I've also seen the pictures as part of my assignment here. I have to agree that they're…well, gruesome. Hendricks: Gruesome. I guess that's a word for it. (Pause. Hendricks takes deep breaths for several moments.) Hendricks: Someone over there must have figured out what was going on at some point. I heard how they buried hundreds of that goddamn game out in the desert. Should've just burnt them. What if someone had found them? Oh God, did someone find them? Dr. McCall: Not that we know of. Please, Mr. Hendricks, try and remain calm. All of these things are in the past. (Pause.) Hendricks: Alright. Alright. I don't think…I don't think there's any more to tell. The three of us got the hell out at that point. Figured someone would be coming down on us hard soon enough, and we were…we were cowards. Stupid kids. We didn't want to get in trouble. Dr. McCall: Thank you, Mr. Hendricks. Your information will be very useful to our investigation. (Dr. McCall gets up to leave.) Hendricks: Wait! Dr. McCall: Yes? Hendricks: I have a, ah, a request. Now, I've cooperated, right - I turned myself in, I didn't have to do that, right? So at least, at least hear me out. (Pause.) Dr. McCall: Alright. Hendricks: You've got that drug. The one that makes you forget - you hear about it, in the circles I run in. An amnesiac or something. Dr. McCall: An amnestic. Hendricks: Yeah, that. Now, I know a lot of stuff that I, that I shouldn't know. All that happened with Indigo Games. You people could just make me forget it. Dr. McCall: I don't think that's an appropriate use of… Hendricks: (interrupting) Please! Please, just ask. (Pause.) Dr. McCall: …I'll file a request, but I can't guarantee anything. Hendricks: Thank you. God, thank you. (Research Assistant Bryant goes to leave. Dr. McCall goes to follow.) Hendricks: Doctor? Dr. McCall: Yes, Mr. Hendricks? Hendricks: We…we didn't mean to hurt anybody. (Pause.) Dr. McCall: I'm sure you didn't, Mr. Hendricks. <End Interview> Consideration for Mr. Hendricks request for extensive amnestic treatment is ongoing. Footnotes 1. A full list of which is available upon request from LC Psi-22's supervising technicians. 2. Digitally distributed games appear to be immune to SCP-3843 infection. Further containment procedures involving encouraging this method of distribution are under consideration. 3.

NOTICE FROM THE RECORDS AND INFORMATION SECURITY ADMINISTRATION You are currently viewing an out of date version of this file that has been preserved for posterity. Please note that information presented herein may be misleading or incorrect. Uploader Note: The following documentation is the earliest Foundation record of SCP-3844. However, this was originally drafted before the Foundation formalized the process of describing containment procedures and anomalies. It is archived here solely for posterity. Correspondence From The Dolomite Mountains Regarding Anomalous Activity 21st of April, 1906 Dear Fredrick, A dragon. There was a dragon in the mountains. And it looked just like we'd imagined. Galviston and I had to follow our guide for about six hours before we first saw the beast. It soared over one peak, let out a low roar that loosened snow from the mountainside, and then dived out of sight. Its wings blocked out the sun like a cloud passing over head. I wish the whole lab could have seen it. It took us another two hours to reach the dragon's cavern. It was a massive cave, filled with gems and goblets and other such valuables. We never reached the end of that cave, but judging from the echoes our footfalls made, we would've needed rations to make it there. We gave up our search for the dragon for the day, thinking it was still flying about, and started our return trek to the outside. And then, just as we summited the last hill of treasure, we heard that roar. We froze, unsure if the noise came from our front or our back. The tension only faded after it spoke. It welcomed us as guests. The dragon motioned for us to come closer as it ambled in front of the maw of the cave. It had an accent like yours! Except lower and more gravelly. It took Galviston and I a few moments to come to our senses, and our guide a few more. The beast was quite the gentlemen if I do say so. It changed its form to resemble a young man to make us feel more relaxed. I held a lengthy discussion with it while Galviston took notes. It was surprisingly well-versed in modern-day affairs. When I introduced ourselves as men of science, it called us "a new age of knights". But do not fret, I did my duty. I'm surprised it worked, given our extreme lack of resources. I negotiated reasonable terms to keep the dragon contained within the Dolomites. I've transcribed the exact operating procedure below, but it agreed in writing. I can only hope it doesn't double cross us. But until then, those Italian officials should be content with our work, even if we've never handled an anomaly this massive before. I will return once I've met with the Italians again to organize the whole affair. Next time Fredrick, you'll come with us. You and George and the whole lab! Words cannot do this majestic beast justice. I'll bring some gin so we can drink together one day. Sincerely, Lester Here are the negotiation terms: The dragon known as Tharnock (henceforth "The Anomaly") has agreed to: Limit expeditions from its abode to one (1) time per day. Expeditions will remain within the confines of the Dolomite Mountains, and will maintain a low elevation. Refrain from vocalizing during expeditions. In return, the Anomaly Investigation Foundation (henceforth "The Foundation") has agreed to: Recruit one (1) ambassador to interact with The Anomaly once per week. Punish any attempts to steal valuables from The Anomaly. To maintain the secrecy of The Anomaly, the Nation of Italy (henceforth "The State") will: Discourage civilians from entering the Dolomite Mountains. Discredit any accounts of The Anomaly.

SCP-3845	euclid	Photo of SCP-3845 during containment attempt #4 Item Tag: SCP-3845 Threat Level: Yellow Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3845 is to be housed in a standard humanoid containment cell at Site-88. Testing of SCP-3845 must be approved by staff of Level 3+/3845 clearance and higher. Field agents stationed on Pitcairn Island are to continue searching for material suggesting SCP-3845's existence, specifically Artifact 1-5 instances (See Addendum 1). Description: SCP-3845 is a humanoid entity, roughly two meters tall. SCP-3845's head/torso takes the shape of an ellipsoid, with legs and arms extending off of it, long and tubular in shape. Hands take a shape similar to the head, and feet are simply 90° bends in the legs. Facial features are present on the front of SCP-3845's head, though the eyebrows are the only features capable of moving or contorting. SCP-3845's limbs have no definite joints, allowing them to contort to extremes with ease. Due to this, SCP-3845 is capable of feats such as jumping as high as six meters and running as fast as 89 km/h, which allowed it to escape Foundation forces numerous times prior to its containment. Prior to containment, SCP-3845 resided on Pitcairn Island in the South Pacific Ocean. At that time, SCP-3845 was typically docile, and took a liking to humans and other wildlife. Despite being incapable of speaking, SCP-3845 could easily cooperate with humans and seemed to have an innate understanding of their social cues. Due to this, SCP-3845 became well-known among the residents of Pitcairn Island, though was most often seen engaging with a Sarah ███████, age 15 (See Addendum 2). SCP-3845 also favored certain toys and foods. For information on SCP-3845's current behavior, please see Addendum 3. Addendum 1: Multiple artifacts have been retrieved from Pitcairn Island during previous containment attempts of SCP-3845, with several dating to 1384 AD, all of which have been linked to SCP-3845 by appearance. These artifacts include: A wooden carving of a figure resembling SCP-3845 Several severed body parts resembling those present in SCP-3845 Imprints in hardened soil resembling feet tracks made by SCP-3845 Sandstone engravings describing a possible anatomy of SCP-3845 Sandstone engravings depicting several SCP-3845 instances being hunted and severed It is believed that Artifacts 1, 4, and 5 were created by a group of Polynesians native to the Pitcairn Islands during SCP-3845's existence, and that Artifacts 2 and 3 were directly created by SCP-3845. Addendum 2: During SCP-3845 containment attempt #6, prior to containment, a GPS Tracker was planted on SCP-3845. Audio and panoramic video recorders were equipped for further analysis of SCP-3845's behavior. The Foundation successfully received information from the tracker for over 29 hours before losing contact. The events recorded through this tracker are documented in the sub-addenda below. Addendum 2.1: Transcript 01 Addendum 2.1: Transcript 01 Foreword: This transcript begins at the moment of tracker activation at approximately 8:43 AM1, sixteen minutes into containment attempt #6. Speech heard at the beginning of transmission originated from a MTF Epsilon-6 ("Village Idiots") operative, specifically Susan ███████ (Beta-2). <Begin Transcript> Beta-2: No, I think I… wait, it's on! The tracker's on! Silence for four seconds. Beta-2 is seen driving a motor bike roughly one meter behind SCP-3845 as it continues running through a forested region. Beta-2: We're heading east. It's taking a straight path. Guard the beaches, everyone. Have the net ready, Beta-10. Don't stress too much now, we… got the tracker on. Silence for ten seconds. Loud rustling is heard. Beta-2: It's speeding up, and… it's getting… more forested. Beta-3 and -4 are in town, right? … Good. If it heads west, Beta-5 is there. If it continues east, Beta-7… is there. Beta-8 is south. We got this. Silence for six seconds. Beta-2: Oh, Beta-6, uh… head to Beta-7. Quick. Everyone go to Beta-7, go east. It's pretty close to shore, so let's not take any chances. We can bring it down there. Silence for five seconds. Beta-2: Wait, I… I have a leak? What the hell? It's spewing everywhere! I'm slowing down, slowing down. Beta-2's voice quickly becomes more faint as SCP-3845 runs farther from Beta-2. Beta-2: Fuck, no! It took a turn, to the town! Head for the town! Don't let it get near the… Beta-2 becomes inaudible. SCP-3845 runs for several more minutes before slowing to a walking pace. SCP-3845 eventually reaches Adamstown, the only settlement on the island, and approaches a house. Once in front of the house, SCP-3845 repeatedly and rhythmically bangs its head against the front door. After a few seconds, Sarah ███████ opens the front door. Sarah: Uh… hey. Sorry, I just I just woke up, like… two minutes ago. You can just… yea, come in. SCP-3845 walks into the house, and enters the living room. SCP-3845 walks up to a couch and stands on it. Beta-3 and -4 confirm SCP-3845's presence in Adamstown, and containment attempt #6 is cancelled. Sarah: … Uh, okay. I'm gonna brush my teeth. Sarah walks into the bathroom. The sound of a running faucet is heard moments later, and lasts for three minutes. Afterward, Sarah exits the bathroom, rubbing her face with her hands. Sarah: Now… time for breakfast. SCP-3845 follows Sarah into the kitchen and sits on a stool in front of the counter. Sarah gets a box of Captain Crunch™ and Rice Krispies™ cereal from a cupboard and sets them on the counter, as well as milk and two paper bowls. Sarah proceeds to pour milk and cereal into each bowl. Sarah: Okay, let's eat! Sarah slides the bowl of Rice Krispies™ to SCP-3845 and proceeds to eat from the bowl of Captain Crunch™. SCP-3845 slowly immerses its hands into its bowl of cereal. Sarah: … Oh, sorry, I forgot you didn't use milk. Wow, I'm just really out of it to- SCP-3845 pours its entire bowl of cereal over its head. Sarah: … Okay. Cool. Sarah glances across the counter at a half-folded piece of paper. Sarah: … Grab that for me. SCP-3845 reaches across the counter, grabs the paper and hands it to Sarah. Upon opening the paper, Sarah sees a message which reads "I got another call from work. Take care of the house for a few days like last time, but use my money wisely! Love you bunches, mom." Sarah: … SCP-3845 begins to pour itself more cereal. Sarah puts her hands over her face and starts to sob. She then abruptly leaves the table. Sarah: Every time. Every damn time! She makes shit up over and over. Oh, it's okay, I work from home now. We can be together again. Fuck that! We haven't talked in weeks! Sarah bangs her fists on the wall and then sits down on the floor next to it. She puts her head in her lap and sobs. SCP-3845 sits down next to Sarah, still holding the box of Rice Krispies™. Sarah: (muffled) Just leave me alone for once. SCP-3845 remains silent for three seconds. Afterward, SCP-3845 pours the Rice Krispies™ over Sarah. After a few more seconds, Sarah begins laughing hysterically, and lifts her head up. Sarah: I can't. I can't help it. You're so stupid. Sarah reaches over and hugs SCP-3845. Sarah continues laughing, but starts to sob again. Sarah lets go of SCP-3845 and wipes off her face. Sarah: … You're literally the only one I have at this point. There's no one else. Silence for five seconds. Sarah: … I guess you're awesome enough though. Who needs to know a bunch of people when you have a tall, uh… thing, for a friend. SCP-3845 does a single nod. Sarah: … Yea. A really, really cool tall thing for a friend. Silence for three seconds. Sarah shifts in position. Sarah: Welp, this day is off to a good start. Now, let's… let's start cleaning this stuff up, Buddy2. Extraneous data expunged. <End Transcript> Notes: N/A Addendum 2.2: Transcript 02 Addendum 2.2: Transcript 02 Foreword: This transcript begins 16 hours subsequent to the events in Transcript 01, at approximately 8:12 AM. <Begin Transcript> SCP-3845 is seen moving at a walking pace through a forested region. SCP-3845 eventually reaches Mason's Point, Pitcairn Island's peninsula, and begins thoroughly surveying the landscape. Upon reaching the shoreline, an Artifact 2 instance is discovered and observed by SCP-3845, resembling an intact SCP-3845 head and face. The instance is notably weathered and tarnished, with a dark pigment running down the face from the eyes. SCP-3845 picks up the instance with its hands shaking, and wipes the pigment from under its eyes. SCP-3845 sets down the instance, and begins wiping dark fluid from beneath its own eyes. SCP-3845 continues surveying Mason's Point, and later comes back to the Artifact 2 instance and carries it off the peninsula. SCP-3845 heads back towards Adamstown, and arrives at Sarah's house. SCP-3845 ordinarily knocks on the front door with its right hand. Sarah opens the front door. Sarah: Well hello again! What happened to head-butting the door? Sarah sees the Artifact 2 instance. Sarah: Oh… another one. SCP-3845 places the instance next to the front door, in a pile of several other Artifact 2 instances. Sarah: All in one week. There were a lot of them, I guess… SCP-3845 stares at the pile of instances. Sarah: … So are you ready to do stuff? Oh wait— so, you may be wondering why I'm actually up this early… maybe not, but… I basically have a surprise for you. Wait here, it's almost done. Sarah closes the front door. SCP-3845 continues waiting for over 16 minutes before Sarah opens the door. Sarah: Come in! Sarah leaves the door open and runs back into the house. SCP-3845 follows. Sarah: Over here, in the bathroom! SCP-3845 walks into the bathroom, and finds Sarah standing next to a bathtub, which is completely filled with Rice Krispies™. Sarah: Ta-da! Go ahead, embrace the, uh… cereal! Of rice! SCP-3845 stands inside of the tub and slowly immerses itself. Sarah: What do you think? SCP-3845 hesitantly does a single nod. Sarah: … It better be! I used half of my mom's wallet on all that. Can I sit in it next? SCP-3845 emerges from the tub and stands against the wall. Sarah runs up and jumps into the tub. Sarah: Ow… this is solid! How did you sink in it? SCP-3845 does an exaggerated and prolonged shrug. Sarah: Whatever. Next up, adding milk! Sarah runs out of the bathroom and into the kitchen, but SCP-3845 proceeds to leave the house and walk down the street. Sarah does not seem to notice until several moments later, and can be heard calling out "Buddy!" once SCP-3845 has entered a forested region. SCP-3845 proceeds to survey the region similarly to how it did previously, and finds several minor Artifact 2 instances. After 60 minutes, SCP-3845 comes across a single Artifact 4 instance in notably good condition, and picks it up. SCP-3845 stares at the instance, and then abruptly shatters it. SCP-3845 smears over each remaining piece with soil. Nearby, SCP-3845 discovers a set of four intact Artifact 5 instances, stacked on top of one another. SCP-3845 proceeds to spread each instance out on the ground, and frantically looks back and forth across each one. SCP-3845's hands begin to shake once more, and it raises its right hand over the first Artifact 5 instance, before hesitating and lowering its hand. SCP-3845 sits on the ground with its hands over its eyes for several more minutes before calming down and continuing to survey the landscape. Near a large tree stump, SCP-3845 discovers an Artifact 2 instance, resembling an intact SCP-3845 head, face, and left leg. The instance is significantly weathered and tarnished, with multiple arrowheads inserted into its head. Dark pigment is splattered across the face. SCP-3845's hands begin to shake once more as it kneels over the instance and excretes more dark fluid from its eyes. SCP-3845's hands and feet become noticeably more pale. SCP-3845 charges back towards the Artifact 5 instances and violently breaks each one. The shattered remains are then broken once again. SCP-3845 summarily hunches over on the ground, with its body shaking, banging its hands repeatedly on the ground. While frantically looking around, SCP-3845 finds a piece of a previously intact Artifact 5 instance, depicting a young, unhappy female. SCP-3845 grasps the piece and begins excreting dark fluid from its eyes once again. SCP-3845 promptly runs out of the forested region and out onto the beach again, where it finds Sarah. Sarah: … Buddy! I've been looking everywhere for you! Where have you been? What's that dark stuff— SCP-3845 runs up to Sarah and tightly hugs her while sobbing and shaking. Sarah eventually hugs back, with a concerned expression. Sarah then notices the GPS tracker on SCP-3845, and reaches for it. Transmission cuts out. <End Transcript> Notes: The GPS tracker was found broken within Sarah's house. The aforementioned pile of Artifact 2 instances was later contained at Site-77. Addendum 3: During SCP-3845 containment attempt #9, SCP-3845 was successfully contained, and containment procedures were updated to reflect this. Since containment, SCP-3845 has been most commonly banging against the walls of its cell, or curled up in the corner of its cell sobbing. SCP-3845 has acted with extreme hostility towards all personnel. All Pitcairn Island residents were promptly administered amnestic following SCP-3845's containment. Sarah ███████ was notably last to be amnesticized due to her extreme struggle with the on-site Field Agents. Footnotes 1. Pitcairn Standard Time 2.

SCP-3846	euclid	Item #: SCP-3846 Level 2/3846 Classified Walden Pond, Circa 1908. Special Containment Procedures: Foundation operatives planted in distribution and reception facilities for literature in the state of Massachusetts are to examine all copies of Walden and contain SCP-3846 prior to shelving, preferably through the discreet removal of pages containing SCP-3846. Agents exposed to SCP-3846 in this manner are to keep a dream journal for a period of six months, or until dreams caused by SCP-3846 stop occurring for at least two weeks. Description: SCP-3846 consists of three pages of anomalous text appearing in approximately half of all editions of Henry David Thoreau's Walden1 that are sold within the Massachusetts Bay Area, including Boston, Salem, Lexington, Concord, and the gift shop at the Walden Pond Visitor's Center. SCP-3846 typically appears as a foreword or afterword, but has also taken the form of a note from the publisher. The content of SCP-3846 is critical of the life and work of Henry David Thoreau, and appears to be written by an individual or individuals that knew of intimate details of their life not present in historical documents. The exact phrasing of SCP-3846 varies, but it is identifiable by the inclusion of the following portion: Hypocrite, hack, inspiration, saint, visionary, abolitionist, misanthrope, overrated, simple-minded, and several other phrases have been used to describe Thoreau and his work. The damage he has done to Walden Pond is immeasurable. I aim to correct that. Individuals who read SCP-3846 will have dreams depicting scenes and actions related to Thoreau, as viewed from an exterior perspective. These scenes and actions do not necessarily correspond to Thoreau's actual life experience, and seem to be largely allegorical or metaphorical. Excerpts of the dream journal of oneirologist William Applegate, who voluntarily exposed themselves to SCP-3846, follow: Show Dream Journal Excerpts – hide block Thoreau is tending to his bean field by the side of Walden Pond.2 Several beans are blown off their stalks float into the lake.3 These beans germinate upon the water and proceed to cause the Pond to shrink. Thoreau is in his mother's house, while she does his laundry. A common point of criticism to show how Thoreau was a hypocrite. Several cameras (think 1940s style, Kodaks with large flash bulbs) are outside his window, taking photographs, like an anachronistic paparazzi. Thoreau is watching as Concord Woods burn.4 He bears no remorse on his face. A bolt of lightning comes from his finger, and another fire ignites.5 Walden Pond shrinks again. Walden Pond is enclosed by Concord on all sides. Thoreau writes. The city shrinks. As does the Pond. But the city is still there, just out of sight. The Pond is hardly even a pond now, more a puddle. Thoreau is writing his passage on Solitude within his cabin. Even as he does so, someone cooks dinner for him. Men and women swim in the Pond outside, paradoxically. They seem to drown in a pool they can barely dip their toes into. People read Walden. The Pond shrinks to the size of a molecule. People come to see it, expecting untamed wilderness, and find a train passing through, ants swimming in the molecule. They are disappointed. Repeat ad nauseum, exit through the gift shop. Books are bought, books gather dust. There is chewing gum stuck to Thoreau's palm. Darkness. Then, a voice: "He fancied me an Ocean, I was a Lake called a Pond, and now I am scarcely a Drop in the eyes of Humanity." Despite being known to the Foundation for over fifty years, there have been fewer than sixty reported instances of SCP-3846. Foundation scholars believe that this is due to the fact that, despite the fact that several thousand copies of Walden are sold in the Massachusetts Bay area each year, less than 1% of them are ever read. Footnotes 1. Published in 1854, Walden is a work of transcendentalist literature recounting Thoreau's experiences during a twenty-six month long stay at Walden Pond in Massachusetts. Walden also acts as a meditation on civilization, nature, and solitude. 2. Thoreau's bean field was actually some distance north of the pond; this dream portrays it as being by the lakeside. 3. Despite its name, Walden Pond is actually a small lake, with a shoreline of approximately 2.7km. 4. In 1844, a campfire set by Thoreau and some companions on a fishing trip led to a large forest fire in Concord Woods. It is speculated that this incident inspired the writing of Walden. 5. Believed to be a reference to a passage in Thoreau's journal regarding the fire, where he states: "I have set fire to the forest, but I have done no wrong therein, and now it is as if the lightning had done it."
SCP-3847	safe	Item #: SCP-3847 Special Containment Procedures: Fences have been erected around SCP-3847 to establish a secure perimeter 20 m away from the affected area. Outpost-3847 has been established at the entrance to SCP-3847 and is maintained by Site-143. Outpost-3847 must be continually manned by 2 personnel to warn off civilians and monitor the area. Experiments and updates regarding SCP-3847 are to be filed back to Site-143. Description: SCP-3847 is an area of roughly 40 m X 80 m X 5 m 20 m, located in █████ ██, ████████, Henan Province, China. When within SCP-3847, vocalizations produced by avian creatures1 are perceived by human subjects as messages in their native language, hereafter referred to as SCP-3847-1. SCP-3847-1 instances are scattered messages, often words of encouragement or comfort, with occasional repetition. They seem to be addressing a certain unknown individual, rather than the affected subjects, and are not influenced by attempts at communication. Recording of avian vocalizations within SCP-3847 shows that only human perceptions are altered while the original sounds are unaffected. SCP-3847-1 instances also do not correspond to the original vocalizations in length, volume, or pitch. Furthermore, different human subjects often perceive the same vocalization as different messages. It is therefore believed that birds entering the area are not the source of SCP-3847-1, and do not gain intelligence in the process. + Examples of SCP-3847-1 - Examples of SCP-3847-1 Balance yourself with nature. Your mind and body at ease. Feel the flow. Don't torture yourself by thinking about it. There are wonders to be explored, let's focus on that. He will not be alone. It is with your help, and he appreciates that. He won’t blame you. Your king won’t either. You don't have to blame yourself. I'm sure you will have a sweet dream tonight. Blessings. It is not your fault, you did what you can. The whole kingdom appreciates your effort. It's okay if you want to be left alone. Stay here with us. No more worries. No need to dwell on the past. The hills are charming today. Share your burden with me. I will understand. The machine will keep him happy, just like we will keep you happy. Time to study some scrolls. I will accompany you. What a beautiful day outside! Camellias are blooming. Why not come join us in the field? We will sing for you. You couldn't have seen it coming. Afterall, he was the greatest king. You don’t need to worry about it anymore, sit down and have some tea. You don't have to feel lonely here. We are here for you, always will be. SCP-3847 came to the Foundation’s attention after several locals accidentally discovered its properties. Update: Further experimentation finds that ophidian creatures are subject to the same effect as avian creatures within SCP-3847. The messages produced in this way are hereafter referred to as SCP-3847-2. SCP-3847-2 appears drastically different from SCP-3847-1 in tone and manner. + Examples of SCP-3847-2 - Examples of SCP-3847-2 Coward. Pathetic. Useless. Do something! Anything! Stop hiding here! Futile. All pointless. He's suffering, and you're no help. Go back and witness his suffering. Witness what you allowed to happen. How can you just sit here, while he suffers? Do you think that mere machine is enough to ease his pain? For all he did for you? He was your mentor and friend. You owe him everything. Go back to him. Go back. How could you let him do it alone? To face his own blood like that? How long can you even stay here like this? You know the voices aren't real. In your nightmares, were you standing on that abyss again? Were you devoured by the false dragons beneath? It is no use. This is not real, you're talking to no one here. You know, because you made this happen. The serpent is disappointed in you. We are no dragons after all, and never will be. You can't hide here forever. The others have not come for you because they respect you, not that you have the right. You could have been there for him yourself, yet you hide here, with birds and flowers. You should have prevented it. How could you have been so blind? You're running from your duties. From your friends. This cannot stand. You're very much alone. Just like he is now. Addendum: Subsequent exploration of SCP-3847’s borders revealed that SCP-3847 extends beneath the ground. Digging at the site found around 170 snake carcasses buried together in a corner beneath SCP-3847, all of which have crushed skulls. Footnotes 1. This does not affect recordings of avian vocalizations. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3847" by SunnyClockwork, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3848	keter	Item #: SCP-3848 Special Containment Procedures: Copies of this document are retained in both digital and physical formats at all Foundation sites. Access to this document by Foundation personnel is not to be restricted, regardless of clearance level. In the event of a full ED-K-Class Lethe Scenario1 taking place and affecting more than 80% of the human population, public knowledge of this document and the existence of the Foundation is permitted, and can be approved if more than half of the acting O5 Council and more than half of the acting Ethics Committee vote as such. Per every Foundation facility, at least one specialist who has undergone full Mk. III Amnesia Resistance Targeted Mnestic Exposure Training2 should have this document memorized. Two specific ED-K Lethe Events are considered theoretical but likely to occur, and each poses a unique threat to successful containment operations. These scenarios, and their respective containment procedures, are outlined below: In the event that SCP-3848 induces widespread memory loss of the concept of itself, SCP-3848 is to be reclassified as a Class V Self-Concealing Memetic Construct3 and treated accordingly. Following that, this document is then to be rewritten with the same containment procedures (unless unforeseen changes are necessary), a Description different enough from the original to be recalled without memory issue, and a different Item Number, and then re-posted to IntSCPFN4 listings as soon as possible. In the event that SCP-3848 affects the knowledge of anything conceptually similar to the Foundation's existence, the knowledge of what is or is not considered anomalous by Foundation standards, and/or the concept of containment, personnel affected are to be transferred out of the area affected into the custody of memetics specialists in unaffected Foundation facilities. The affected persons should then be exposed to memetic symbols or phrases designed to induce recollection of these concepts.5 Description: SCP-3848 is the designation for a collective memory loss phenomenon affecting all residents of any one specific region6 at any given time. Manifestations of SCP-3848's effects are referred to as ED-K Lethe Events, and occur at random with no historical correlation to each other. An ED-K Lethe Event is characterized by the following parameters: Knowledge of a concept, object, or entity will be expunged through anomalous means from the memory of the affected humans. This occurs without warning and can only be identified as having occurred by an outside observer who was not exposed to SCP-3848's effects. Any memories of interactions with things forgotten will still exist, but will have no context in the affected person's frame of reference. Memories of forgotten concepts will be vague and difficult to describe, with affected persons citing that attempting to recall details of occurrences feels counter-intuitive and psychologically uncomfortable. Loss of memory of a concept is long-lasting7 and self-sustaining; if an affected person is reminded of a concept forgotten, they will forget again as soon as the topic changes, and will undergo the same reintroduction every time they are exposed to the concept. Clinical treatment using targeted mnestics administration can be effective, but has only a 9% success rate in tests thus far. Investigation into controlled anomalous forced memory recollection technology is underway.8 Due to the nature of SCP-3848's effects, it is difficult to ascertain records of the first documented event, if such records exist. The first event available in Foundation records is the case of July 12th, 2003 in ████, Wisconsin, in which 156 Foundation personnel and approximately 60,000 civilians suddenly and anomalously lost all knowledge of the existence of all canine species, including their pets. This occurrence was limited to the region of ████, with all residents inside city limits affected, all personnel at nearby Site-██ affected, and 50% of ████ County affected. Notably, no persons outside of county lines were affected. Details on this case, and others, are available in Addendum I. It is unknown how many ED-K Lethe Events have occurred without the Foundation's knowledge, what concepts may or may not have been purged from collective human memory, and how long SCP-3848 has been active. It is theorized that at least one major, worldwide series of connected events — referred to in Foundation documentation as an ED-K-Class Lethe Scenario — has already taken place at some point in the recent past. However, details of these events, if they did take place, are not easily accessible due to the inherent self-sustaining nature of the memory loss induced by SCP-3848. ED-K Lethe Events occur approximately thrice a month as of 04/2018, showing a 78% increase in average rate of occurrence since the first detected event in 2003. Addendum I: Included below is a selection of SCP-3848 example cases. Date of Occurrence: July 16, 2003 Location Affected: ████ County, Wisconsin, USA Number of Civilians Affected: Approx. 60,000 Number of Foundation Personnel Affected: 156 Description of Concept Affected: The existence of dogs/canine species; all affected persons lost all knowledge and awareness of the existence of canine species. Events Transpired: At least 20 civilian dog owners made calls to police and animal control, citing that an unfamiliar creature was present in their home. Local responders agreed that the creatures were unfamiliar, and contacted state authorities, who were unaffected by the SCP-3848 event due to their location outside the area of effect; embedded Foundation agents then informed nearby Site-██ of the occurrences, only to discover that Site-██ had also been affected. It was at this point that SCP-3848 was officially documented as an anomalous phenomenon and preliminary containment procedures were developed. An interview between Specialist Ryland, the only unaffected person in the area9 and an affected agent was conducted, and a transcript of this interview is included below. Results and Impact: As re-education efforts were shown to repeatedly fail due to the self-sustaining nature of SCP-3848's effects, dogs were relocated to neighboring counties' adoption shelters. Approximately 80 percent of ████ County's population has lived there since the event, and still hold no memory of dogs. The 20 percent who moved to the area after the event occurred are unaffected. ⮟ show interview transcript ⮝ hide interview transcript On July 16th, 2003, Specialist Ryland of Site-██ conducted an interview with Agent █████, who was affected by July 12th's ED-K Lethe Event. Specialist Ryland was, at the time, Site-██'s only employee who had undergone Mk. III ARTMET training, and thus was able to successfully counter the effects of the event long enough to interview Agent █████ and lead preliminary research efforts on SCP-3848. A transcript of the relevant interview segment follows: Begin excerpt: 10:02 \| Specialist Ryland: As you've been informed, I'm conducting this series of interviews to determine the effects of this memory-affecting event on Site-██'s personnel, including myself. Do you still have in mind the topic we'll be discussing? 10:02 \| Agent █████: Yeah, you said dogs, right? 10:02 \| Specialist Ryland: That's correct. You have a dog at home, yes? 10:02 \| Agent █████: I do? 10:02 \| Specialist Ryland: You cited to me before this interview that you own a white Russian wolfhound. 10:02 \| Agent █████: A Russian- That does sound familiar. What did you say this Russian thing was? 10:02 \| Specialist Ryland: A dog. Canines are a non-anomalous type of animal that humans have domesticated and bred just like we did with cats. Agent █████ pauses for 10 seconds. 10:03 \| Agent █████: Wow. I wonder how I went so long without knowing that. What else did you need to ask? 10:03 \| Specialist Ryland: It's imperative you understand that you very recently did know about dogs, but were anomalously induced to forget by the effects of newly-discovered SCP-3848, a memory loss phenomenon. Site-██, and the rest of ████ County, were just affected by an event that caused us to forget canines exist. People outside of our area were not affected. I have had memetic resistance training that allows me to focus on the topic longer than most, but SCP-3848 induces repetitive memory loss and our research has shown that subjects forgotten are invariably forgotten again, even if retaught. Does this make sense to you? 10:03 \| Agent █████: Yes. It's not the craziest I've heard. I'll try to wrap my head around it. 10:04 \| Specialist Ryland: Alright. Unfortunately, this is the third time that I've given you this briefing. I recommend clearing your head of any and all thoughts or topics except for dogs, SCP-3848, and this conversation. I have some pictures of dogs printed out here on the table for you. Try to explain what your reaction is to seeing these pictures of dogs. 10:04 \| Agent █████: I don't like how you keep saying 'dogs'. It doesn't sound like a real word. 10:04 \| Specialist Ryland: Noted. Can you please look at these images of dogs? Agent █████ picks up a photograph of their pet, a white Borzoi. 10:04 \| Agent █████: It doesn't look real. Almost like a horse, but too soft. Hard to believe that we've always had these things around. 10:04 \| Specialist Ryland: Indeed. That dog is yours, and lives in your townhome offsite. 10:05 \| Agent █████: This is mine? I don't know how to take care of it. What do we do about that? 10:05 \| Specialist Ryland: Personnel from my department will address that with you later today. 10:05 \| Agent █████: Are all of these pictures… dogs? 10:05 \| Specialist Ryland: Yes. These are all different breeds of dogs. Agent █████ picks up a photograph of an American pitbull. 10:05 \| Agent █████: Wow, this looks very different from the white one. Probably the most different out of all of the pictures here. And what type of creature is this? 10:05 \| Specialist Ryland: This is also a dog. 10:05 \| Agent █████: Oh, right, a dog. And what SCP did you say they are? 10:05 \| Specialist Ryland: Dogs are not an SCP object. Your memory of dogs, which are a very well-known and domesticated type of animal all over the planet, is being anomalously influenced by SCP-3848. 10:05 \| Agent █████: Oh, right, right. You told me about that one. 10:05 \| Specialist Ryland: Yes. Now, could you please describe for the record the thoughts and feelings you are experiencing every time you make an attempt to remember dogs, or think about dogs? 10:05 \| Agent █████: Very uncomfortable. I feel like I should be talking about something else. 10:05 \| Specialist Ryland: Do you feel there is a reason for this? Agent █████ is silent for 8 seconds. 10:05 \| Agent █████: Not really. It feels like… um… I'm sorry, I'm losing my train of thought here. Can you repeat your q- Wait, no, no, I remember, damn it. These pictures are of dogs. Okay, I've got this. Something doesn't want me to remember dogs. Do you know the concept of dimensions higher than three? 10:06 \| Specialist Ryland: We need to make an effort to stay on the topic of dogs, and SCP-3848. 10:06 \| Agent █████: Just bear with me. You know when you look at a 3D rendition of a 4D cube, and you sort of get it, but you feel like you're missing some key aspect of actually processing how it exists, and you just can't get yourself to comprehend it, because you have no way of perceiving the space it naturally exists in? 10:06 \| Specialist Ryland: I think so, yes. 10:06 \| Agent █████: That's what looking at these pictures of dogs makes me think. I get that these easily could have showed up in Earth's evolution — er, I mean, I get that that's why they're real — but they look and feel alien. Thinking about them is like thinking about those other dimensions in space. I get that it's possible, but I don't have the means to comprehend it. 10:06 \| Specialist Ryland: Excellent. Thank you. 10:06 \| Agent █████: Is that it? Can I go now? I really want to think about something else. All of this memetic shit is giving me a headache. I don't think I'd make it if I were in your department. 10:06 \| Specialist Ryland: Yes, that's it. I'll have two of my coworkers meet you at your house tonight to discuss what to do with your dog. 10:07 \| Agent █████: Oh wow, I don't think I caught the fact that I have a dog. I wonder what I'm going to do about that. 10:07 \| Specialist Ryland: Again, our personnel will assist you with that. For the time being, this interview is concluded. You may return to your shift. 10:07 \| Agent █████: Oh, okay, thanks. End log. Date of Occurrence: August 12, 2005 Location Affected: Wilmington, North Carolina, USA Number of Civilians Affected: Approx. 110,000 Number of Foundation Personnel Affected: 13 Description of Concept Affected: The sport of line fishing; commercial/bulk net fishing was not affected, nor was the concept of fish. Events Transpired: On August 12, customers in a local sporting goods store inquired as to the nature and purpose of the fishing rods up for sale. Store associates cited that the devices were unfamiliar to them as well. Although the process took 48 hours, the abnormality eventually spread by word of mouth to the Wilmington Police Department, and from there to Foundation personnel stationed at Site-42. As Site-42 is not within Wilmington's official city limits, personnel on-site were not affected, but 13 personnel who had been inside city limits for the day were affected. Results and Impact: Wilmington residents remain familiar with other methods of fishing, but are averse to line fishing. Line fishing is still a professional sport in the coastal area, although participants and organizers are always from areas outside of Wilmington's official city limits. 15 percent of the original affected persons have now moved, with city population swelling in following years, and as a result about half of Wilmington is now familiar with line fishing. [UNCONFIRMED EVENT REMOVED] Date of Occurrence: October 23, 2007 Location Affected: Felixstowe, United Kingdom Number of Civilians Affected: Approx. 23,000 Number of Foundation Personnel Affected: 1 Description of Concept Affected: The existence of boats, but not the concept of buoyant materials. Events Transpired: Two Foundation operatives were dispatched to Felixstowe for a mission involving an unrelated anomaly. One operative spent the night in Felixstowe with intentions to use a small private motorboat to cross an inlet and rendezvous with their partner at nearby Harwich International Port for extraction. On the morning of October 23, the operative in Felixstowe reported that they could not complete the mission because they knew of no way to cross the body of water without swimming. After some conversation between the two operatives, the unaffected person reported the strange behavior to Foundation supervisors, and the event was investigated accordingly; it was then determined by investigation that the entire parish of Felixstowe was affected. Results and Impact: Felixstowe residents expressed unease regarding their proximity to water, resulting in a panic that caused most residents to purchase life preservers and other such devices, in preparation for the theoretical possibility that someone could fall into water and have no way of being rescued quickly. Images of passing ships were posted to social media with confusion, and Foundation information suppression specialists were tasked with removing traces of these posts as they occurred, either manually or through use of a keyword-targeting bot. Date of Occurrence: March 18, 2011 Location Affected: Queens, New York City, New York, USA Number of Civilians Affected: Approx. 2.3 million Number of Foundation Personnel Affected: 730 Description of Concept Affected: The existence of the turn signal indicator in passenger vehicles. Events Transpired: An Offsite Response Driver for Site-██ was observed not using his signal by a passenger from an out-of-state site. The resulting discussion between the two eventually led to investigation by Site-██ and subsequent public analysis of the phenomenon. Results and Impact: Minimal impact was observed. Traffic patterns for the area saw a 2.8% increase in accidents per year for two years and then returned to normal averages. Date of Occurrence: December 7, 2015 Location Affected: Mainz, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany Number of Civilians Affected: Approx. 205,000 Number of Foundation Personnel Affected: 0 Description of Concept Affected: The mechanics through which alternating current electricity functions; the use of electricity and electrical devices was not affected, nor was the knowledge that electricity exists. Events Transpired: All affected persons became incapable of comprehending how wide-scale power distribution works, including employees of power companies and local government. Mainz suffered a three-day power outage due to lack of action by power grid operators; Foundation informants embedded in national government reported on the issue and were eventually able to transfer personnel from out of the area to manage power stations. Results and Impact: Power grid was successfully restored. Most of Mainz's population remains affected, but power grid operations personnel have been replaced with informed employees and the city now operates normally. Date of Occurrence: January 3, 2017 Location Affected: ████████ █████, Ontario, Canada Number of Civilians Affected: [REDACTED] Number of Foundation Personnel Affected: 0 Description of Concept Affected: The fact that murder is illegal, as well as the fact that it is generally regarded as immoral. Events Transpired: On the morning of January 3, a ████████ █████ resident killed his neighbor via blunt force impact with a sharpened stone. Onlookers did not report the event to law enforcement. After approximately 72 hours, a traveler from outside city limits entered ████████ █████, witnessed a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police kill a civilian seemingly at random with an audience of several witnesses, and fled the town to inform law enforcement in another area. It was through these channels that the Foundation was eventually alerted to the events that had taken place. Results and Impact: [DATA EXPUNGED] Extensive records of all known SCP-3848 events documented by the Foundation are available for persons with Level 4/3848 clearance, and can be requested from the Site-42 Memetics and Cognitohazards Department. Footnotes 1. A high number of ED-K Lethe Events occurring at a rate that both noticeably and negatively impacts human society and results in public awareness of the SCP-3848 phenomenon. With current predictions, this point will be reached by 2035 at the latest. 2. A regimen of tolerance training sessions originally developed by the Site-42 Memetics and Cognitohazards Department which involves repeated exposure to memory-affecting memetic hazards, followed by administration of memory-targeting mnestics. (Referred to in shorthand as ARTMET.) 3. "anti-meme" 4. the International SCP Foundation Network 5. One such symbol, the three-pointed SCP Foundation logo, is an example of a low-level memetic conceptual induction symbol designed by Foundation personnel, and has been in use for ██ years. However, development of these tools to a degree capable of countering SCP-3848's effects is currently still in experimental stages, with D-class testing pending approval. 6. SCP-3848 events appear to occur within the exact constraints of municipal boundaries, such as being limited to one town inside city limits or one county inside county lines. 7. Certain concepts forgotten appear to be more easily recollected by affected persons, but no case has shown recollection occurring any sooner than 6-24 months after initial expungement. 8. Edited by Mallory Wickerford (Site-42 Research Department) 03/03/27 9. Due to Ryland's effectiveness, his memetic training regimen was then used as the baseline for development of future containment procedures and personnel requirements. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3848" by Genburten, from the SCP Wiki.

SCP-3849	safe	SCP-3849. Item #: SCP-3849 Special Containment Procedures: As SCP-3849 cannot be relocated without risking structural damage to the surrounding bathtub, the property located at 810 Danforth St, Portland, ME has been purchased through a Foundation front company. The property is to remain locked, with access restricted to personnel with 4/3849 clearance. Description: SCP-3849 is a region of space located within a wall-mounted bathtub on the second floor of 810 Danforth St, Portland, ME. The area of space to which SCP-3849 connects has been determined to exist 4.43 billion years in the past, at some location within the confines of Earth's gravity well.1 SCP-3849 induces no negative pressure in the surrounding room, though any object placed into the anomalous space will continue to fall towards the planet. Due to the narrow window of view available, the surface of Earth cannot be seen. SCP-3849 was first discovered on 8-18-18, when homeowner Chris Mattingly contacted local authorities, claiming that his wife, Christina Mattingly, had "fallen into space in the bathtub". Addendum 3849-TL: SCP-3849 Test log Test A - 8/20/18 Subject: One sealed time capsule with Barium-130 isotope half-life dating apparatus. Procedure: Time capsule dropped into SCP-3849. Time capsule recovered through SCP-1162. Results: Difference in time between the interior of SCP-3849 and current time determined. Analysis: Trace amounts of biological matter from an unidentified multi-cellular organism were found fossilized around the time capsule, with a strata of stromatolite suspected to be the remains of previously undiscovered primitive prokaryotic organisms. Further testing has been judged to carry the risk of being antithetical to the development of biological life on Earth, and is prohibited by O5 command. Footnotes 1. See Addendum 3849-TL.

Description: SCP-3850 is a phenomenon centered around a body (termed SCP-3850-1) floating in ████████████ Lake in the U.S. state of ██████. A thick fog surrounds SCP-3850-1 within an estimated 5-kilometer radius, growing thicker as SCP-3850-1 is approached to the extent that viewers are unable to perceive objects more than ten centimeters away from them. When a person is close enough to SCP-3850-1, the fog will lift enough so that it can be seen. However, the fog does not lift at any distance farther than one meter from the viewer. SCP-3850-1 itself is the body of a Native American male floating face-down in the lake. Although SCP-3850-1 never moves of its own power when under observation, it has occasionally changed its position in-between observations so that it is perpendicular to the lake, its body contorted into the positions of a person floundering or drowning. Photographs of SCP-3850-1's face have been matched to ████████ ███, an Abenaki Indian accused and acquitted of murdering his brother ███████ ███ in 1925. Individuals who come within viewing distance of SCP-3850-1 are subject to a spatial anomaly which prevents them from moving closer than 25 meters to SCP-3850-1, regardless of any movement made. Although fuel measurements, speedometers, and ripples in the water indicate that movement is taking place, GPS measurements, satellite imagery, and sonar/radar detection show no movement. Moving out of viewing distance of SCP-3850-1 also moves one out of the radius of the spatial anomaly. Two unorthodox attempts have been made to reach SCP-3850: once by a diving D-Class and once by a skydiving D-Class. The diver was unable to reach SCP-3850 but was able to retreat successfully; his bathymeter reached a depth of 25 meters before it stopped moving. The skydiver's altimeter stopped at an altitude of 25 meters, but audiovisual recording indicated that she was still falling; all attempts to retrieve her by helicopter were halted by the spatial anomaly. The skydiver's camera recorded for approximately █ months before its battery died. The skydiver's body is currently visible and suspended above SCP-3850-1, though it appears blurry both in-person and through viewing equipment as if moving at high speed. Addendum 3850-1: Sonar observation of the area around SCP-3850-1 has shown the presence of a human skeleton partially buried at the bottom of the lake, directly below SCP-3850-1. The skeleton was retrieved from the lakebed via scuba divers, but dissolved into water immediately upon breaking the surface. At the same time, SCP-3850-1 sank to the bottom of the lake and landed at the same position where the skeleton was recovered, whereupon the flesh and muscle of its body dissolved, leaving its own skeleton; the water at its initial position on the surface was seen to coalesce into another instance of SCP-3850-1. Further attempts to retrieve the skeleton on the lakebed ended with the same result. However, small samples of bone have been recovered from the skeleton without incident. DNA analysis of the bone indicates that it is also of Native American descent. Since this incident, personnel observing SCP-3850-1 have reported hearing chanting from an unknown source, identified as a dialect of Eastern Abenaki, within viewing distance of SCP-3850-1. Attempts to recover SCP-3850-1 remotely are ongoing. ‡ Licensing / Citation ‡ Hide Licensing / Citation Cite this page as: "SCP-3850" by A Random Day, from the SCP Wiki.
