SCP-XXXX-1 upon discovery in Chicago Transit Authority train car ████. Discovery date 19/2/2018.

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Keter Neutralized

Special Containment Procedures: Foundation web crawlers are to monitor the internet and Snapchat mobile application platform for mentions of SCP-XXXX. Active SCP-XXXX users are to be identified and detained. Personnel interacting with assigned D-Class are forbidden to have any device that can connect to the internet on their person. When not in testing, devices used to log into SCP-XXXX instances are to be completely powered down and stored in a standard storage locker. Access to the Snapchat mobile application is forbidden to Level 2/XXXX through Level 3/XXXX personnel.

UPDATE 21/3/18: Moved to Site-45. Testing of SCP-XXXX has been postponed indefinitely. All D-Class personnel currently assigned to SCP-XXXX are to be terminated. Instances of SCP-XXXX-1 are to be destroyed, and any personnel exposed administered Class-B amnestics. In the event that additional SCP-XXXX-1 instances are discovered, they are to be destroyed, and any possible observers administered Class-A amnestics. Personnel assigned to SCP-XXXX are to undergo monthly psychological wellness exams.¹

Description: SCP-XXXX is the designation assigned to Snapchat user account "@eko_███". Any posts made using SCP-XXXX will alter reality to conform with the post. Reality alterations will only last as long as the post is available. After the post is either removed or after a specific period of time has elapsed², reality will return to the state prior to being altered. Use of SCP-XXXX to alter reality will lower local Hume levels at a fixed rate for the duration of the reality shift. It is unknown if SCP-XXXX manifested independently or was created purposely by some entity.³ Continued use of SCP-XXXX seemingly produces similar anomalous accounts among other platforms,⁴ All attempts to recreate or reverse engineer SCP-XXXX have failed. The only known way of logging into SCP-XXXX is through SCP-XXXX-1.

SCP-XXXX-1 are alphabetical and numerical sequences that, when entered in a platform's search field, will produce SCP-XXXX in the search results. SCP-XXXX-1 instances are commonly spread through graffiti, often found in close proximity to areas with high SCP-XXXX activity. Accessing an instance of SCP-XXXX through SCP-XXXX-1 will instantly log the user in, logging them out of any accounts currently being used. Once logged in, it becomes impossible for the user to log out from SCP-XXXX or log into any account that isn't SCP-XXXX. This effect will persist among all devices.

Addendum A: On 14/3/18, Junior Researcher ███ discovered an instance of SCP-XXXX-1 written in a restroom stall in Specialized Research and Application Site-68. This SCP-XXXX-1 instance deviated from previously recorded behavior, instead providing credentials for a Level 5 Foundation SCiPnet user account (hereby referred to as SCP-XXXX-Tau). Permission to test the properties of SCP-XXXX-Tau granted on 16/3/18.

SCP-XXXX-Tau Testing Log5

Test #: XXXX-TA
Subject(s): D-70023
Post: Edit of SCP-████ documentation to include the word "Test" at the bottom of the page.
Results: "Test" appears on all copies of SCP-████ documentation, including print copies.
Notes: Site-45 personnel have alerted us that the revision to the SCP-███ documentation cannot be reverted. SCP-XXXX-Tau may permanently rewrite reality. Additional testing is required. -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-TB
Subject(s): D-70023
Post: Edit of SCP-████ documentation to remove the word "Test" at the bottom of the page.
Results: "Test" continues to appear on all SCP-████ documentation.
Notes: All efforts to remove "Test" by XXXX personnel and the Foundation's Records and Information Security Administration (RAISA) have failed. SCP-XXXX-Tau reality shifts presumed permanent.
Seeing as how it has an SCP-XXXX-1, SCP-XXXX-Tau should be able to physically shift reality as an instance of SCP-XXXX would. I propose we abandon the SCP-███ revision for now. Perhaps we can come back to that once we learn more about SCP-XXXX-Tau. -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-TC
Subject(s): D-70023, Junior Researcher █████████
Post: Documentation for a non-existent SCP artifact, described as 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm cube made of glass and stored in Junior Researcher █████████'s coat pocket.
Results: Artifact appears in Junior Researcher █████████'s coat pocket.
Notes: We have established that SCP-XXXX can create. Can it erase? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-TD
Subject(s): D-70023, Junior Researcher █████████
Post: Deletion of the documentation used in Test #: XXXX-TC.
Results: All attempts to delete the document fail.
Notes: We're not thinking about this in the right way. SCP-XXXX-Tau cannot delete documents, but it can edit them. If it's a tool for crafting a narrative, why not use it for that purpose? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-TE
Subject(s): D-70023, Junior Researcher █████████
Post: Edit of the documentation used in Test #s: XXXX-TC; XXXX-TD, revising the Object Class to Neutralized. Additionally, an addendum was added, stating the cube spontaneously evaporated into harmless water vapor and dissipated.
Results: All documentation of the artifact change to reflect the edits. The artifact itself evaporates as described in the document.
Notes: If this behavior is consistent, SCP-XXXX-Tau can neutralize any SCP artifact in our possession. Requesting permission to further test SCP-XXXX-Tau for possible Thaumatological application. -Researcher Burr
Permission granted. -Professor Hallow

Extraneous testing redacted. SCP-XXXX-Tau determined to function as hypothesized.

Researcher Jeffery Burr,

We have received and read your proposal to reclassify SCP-XXXX as a Thaumiel class artifact. The Council voted 10/3 in motion to deny your request. While the anomalous properties of SCP-XXXX, specifically SCP-XXXX-Tau, certainly appear incredibly beneficial to the Foundation as a whole, the Council has concluded its usage would ultimately prove to be detrimental. The advent of simply erasing any anomalies that prove too difficult to contain is tantalizing, however one must remember that we are not the Global Occult Coalition. Blind deletion of anomalies is not the goal of the Foundation.

One problematic aspect of SCP-XXXX-Tau, and one that you failed to mention in your proposal, is its impact on local Hume levels. Not only does it exponentially lower Hume levels, the diameter of the effect increases at the same rate. This not only endangers the Foundation, but baseline reality itself. It is too high of a risk, even for something as beneficial as SCP-XXXX-Tau. There is no use in completely destroying an anomaly if in doing so two more are created, ones that could potentially be even harder to contain. Additionally, while you currently presume that SCP-XXXX-Tau creates permanent shifts to reality, its counterpart SCP-XXXX only alters reality for a limited time. SCP-XXXX-Tau may simply have a longer period of activity that has not yet elapsed in testing. If this were the case, and going off of your research it very well may be, SCP-XXXX-Tau would only provide a temporary solution while simultaneously opening the door for more anomalous activity to occur. There may be absolutely no benefit whatsoever, no one can say for sure.

We are not here to play God, Researcher Burr. We are not equipped for that.

^ Show Incident Log XXXX 20/3/18

Incident Log XXXX 20/3/18: During testing of SCP-XXXX-Tau, Hume levels in the areas surrounding Specialized Research and Application Site-68 began to drop at a faster rate than expected. Further testing indicated that continued use of SCP-XXXX-Tau would lower Hume levels exponentially at an approximate rate of (n-1)/1.43 Hm⁶ per test, rather than at a fixed rate as previously believed. Due to the assumed infinite duration of SCP-XXXX-Tau reality shifts, local Hume levels would not return to normal levels. Scranton Reality Anchors, SCP-████, and SCP-XXXX-Tau were unable to re-stabilize the environment to standard Hume levels. On 19/3/18, hostile entities began to materialize in the area in and surrounding Site-68, likely due to the drastically low Hume levels. The rate of the materialization necessitated the detonation of Site-68 on-site warheads to avoid the further loss of Foundation assets. During emergency item transfer to Site-45, Professor Hallow ordered that all devices used to access SCP-XXXX instances be left on-site, both to prevent the possible spread of lowered local Hume and to neutralize the artifact.

During item transfer to Site-45 Researcher Burr attempted to breach containment of SCP-XXXX-Tau. Researcher Burr was detained and questioned. Following is a transcript of Researcher Burr's questioning. Audio file available per request.

Interviewed: Researcher Jeffery Burr

Interviewer: Professor Kira Hallow

Foreword: Interview conducted on Site-45 approximately thirty minutes after Researcher Burr attempted to compromise SCP-XXXX-Tau containment

<Begin Log>

Hallow: Please state your name for the record.

Burr: They all know who I am

Hallow: Please state your name for the record.

Burr: Jeffery Burr. Researcher. Level three.

Hallow: Researcher Burr, wha-

Burr: We don't need the formalities, you're just drawing this out now.

Hallow: Researcher Burr, I am aware that Foundation protocol is not something you hold to any sort of high regard, but I must ask that you-

Burr: Please, there's no poi-

Hallow: Researcher Burr, I am going to demand that you stop interrupting me.

Burr: Oh, yes sir, sorry sir.

[silence]

Hallow: Please inform me as to why you would attempt to breach the containment of SCP-XXXX-Tau, Researcher Burr.

Burr: You saw my proposal. And I know you saw it get shot down, O5-2 cced you. "Tighten that leash Hallow, one of your underlings has a good idea!"

Hallow: I would prefer it if you refrained from any extraneous comments, Researcher Burr.

Burr: Alright then. SCP-XXXX-Tau should be Thaumiel, that's my reason. We have a tool that lets us replace anything with thin air and we're just going to sit on it. My plan was to instruct the D-Class to comb the database and neutralize anything that isn't Thaumiel, starting with the Keter artifacts. All he had to do was rewrite the object classes and they'd be gone. We wouldn't have been able to get rid of all of them, but we could certainly lighten the load enough to make sure the Foundation isn't as spread thin as we are now. I knew I would be caught, probably killed or worse, but someone had to do it. I had to do it.

Hallow: The overuse of SCP-XXXX-Tau just lead to the needless loss of life, anomalous artifacts, and an entire site, events you witnessed firsthand. You still attempted to use it more, despite knowing that it would only worsen the situation?

Burr: Yes. We would never get another chance to use it. Overwatch would certainly prevent us from using once we got it to 45, not after what happened at 68.

Hallow: And for good reason.

Burr: Exactly. It was never my intention to use SCP-XXXX-Tau outside of 68, I'm not stupid. Yes, the area of effect would grow and the Humes would drop, but imagine what we wouldn't have to deal with! Six eight two, One five four eight, gone! And that's just the beginning! We can [DATA EXPUNGED] for God's sake! For the cost of just one site, we could have gotten rid of dozens of Keter artifacts! We're not getting this chance again, so I tried to do what we should have done.

Hallow: Despite knowing those actions would be in direct opposition to our mission statement?

Burr: My actions would have prevented the deaths of thousands! Are you saying that isn't what we're trying to do? The Council is wrong Kira, you know that! I know you do!

Hallow: Don't tell me what I know, Jeffery.

[silence]

Hallow: We're done here.

Closing Statement: Per [REDACTED] order, Researcher Burr was terminated following questioning.

Special Containment Procedures for SCP-XXXX updated as of 21/3/18 to prevent similar incidents from occurring.

NOTES: Make Tau the whole anomaly? No Snapchat? To balance tau, maybe each shift fucks reality up, something like Hume levels going weird? Something to make it not "super cool eraser that can do anything: the scp" Cut the XXXX test logs for length, doesnt add much as all of burrs development occurs in the tau log. Prolonged/constant/consistent usage of SCP-XXXX-Tau to alter SCiPnet documents lowers hume levels on an incrementally increasing scale. ex. First SRAS-68 notices lower hume levels, then Site-45 picks them up as well due to it being close. By the time anyone notices, the levels are moderately lower, and have been lowered to the point that continued usage would be real stupid since erasing shit would only make more shit in the long run. Burr proposes that Tau only be used from multiple/extradimensional locations in order to mitigate the effects, but the O5 deny the request and order Tau to be neutralized since it's not worth the trouble. This leads Burr into his stunt with the attempted containment breach. Tau's hume alterations are on a multiplied scale, or whatever the correct math term would be. 1.5(n-1) or something like that, exponentially. Tau would divide, since it lowers levels, so (n-1)/1.5, with n being the current hume level of the environment. Pretty much fossil fuels but instead of the ozone layer its reality. O5 denial will be revised to add this point, along with Hallow's argument against Burr. Object Class may change. Thaumiel is out of the question due to plot, but Keter seems drastic due to it only being two accounts. Does Tau change it to Keter, then to Neutralized after Burr's plan fails? Start as Euclid? Safe may work for the start, since all you have to do is lock up the affected D. Upgrade to Keter when Tau comes in, and then neutralized. Or does Keter class pend, since they can contain that too, though it's the only spontaneous creation of an instance. Euclid may be a good start, since the properties are silly. Hmm, this is a rambling mess.

Prolonged use of SCP-XXXX causes minimal dips in local Hume levels. Dips last as long as the post is active, active meaning the post is up and can be viewed by other user accounts. Dips are only small and mostly unnoticeable, close to standard fluctuations. Original will be a snapchat account, and following some testing some other account type is discovered. Discovery sites progressively get closer to SRAS-68, leading up to discovery of Tau. Dips in Hume also get progressively lower and with greater area. Tau causes medium large permanent dips. Unknown if truly permanent or it simply has a longer cool down. Testing leads to discovery of SCP-███, SCP-████, SCP-████ or something and maybe even the abandonment of SRAS-68 and maybe classification to SCP-████. Hallow and Burr conduct interview at Site-45?

SHould the O5 letter come before the reveal of "oh no its entropy in a can"? makes sense to me. Rearrange those addenda

replace burr hallow talk with video log of burr attempting to breach tau containment while the warheads go off?

 Skelekey ver 3/30/18

An instance of SCP-XXXX-1, discovered in Chicago Transit Authority train car ████. Discovery date 19/2/2018.

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: Foundation web crawlers are to monitor the internet and Snapchat mobile application platform for instances of SCP-XXXX. Users of active instances are to be identified and detained. D-Class personnel assigned to SCP-XXXX are to be kept in a standard humanoid containment cell and forbidden access to devices with the ability to connect to the internet. Foundation agents embedded in the sanitation departments of major population centers are to monitor high-traffic areas for instances of SCP-XXXX-1. Instances of SCP-XXXX-1 are to be catalogued and sent to Specialized Research and Application Site-68. Access to the Snapchat mobile application is forbidden to Level 2/XXXX through Level 3/XXXX personnel.

UPDATE 21/3/18: Testing of SCP-XXXX has been postponed indefinitely. D-Class assigned to SCP-XXXX are to be kept in a medically induced coma and fifty meters away from any device with the ability to connect to the internet. Personnel assigned to SCP-XXXX are to undergo monthly psychological wellness exams.⁷

Description: SCP-XXXX is the collective designation assigned to user accounts named "skelekey_███" found on the Snapchat mobile application. SCP-XXXX instances can post content to any other user account, as well as edit any preexisting content uploaded from other users. It is unknown if SCP-XXXX instances manifest independently, or created purposely by some entity.⁸ All attempts to recreate or reverse engineer SCP-XXXX instances have failed. Any posts made through SCP-XXXX will alter reality to conform with the post.⁹ The only known way of logging into SCP-XXXX is through corresponding SCP-XXXX-1.

SCP-XXXX-1 are alphabetical and numerical sequences that, when entered in Snapchat's search field, will produce an instance of SCP-XXXX in the search results. SCP-XXXX-1 is commonly spread through graffiti, often found in public areas with high civilian traffic. Accessing an instance of SCP-XXXX through SCP-XXXX-1 will instantly log the user in, logging them out of any accounts currently being used. Once logged in, it becomes impossible for the user to log out from SCP-XXXX or log into any account that isn't SCP-XXXX. This effect is tied to the user, and will persist among all devices. Additionally, access to that SCP-XXXX becomes restricted to that user. Termination of the user results in the generation of a new instance of SCP-XXXX within four to seven days.

Addendum A: Below is a testing log of SCP-XXXX instances to determine the limitations of it's properties. Testing log uses the following structure:

SCP-XXXX Testing Log10

Test #: XXXX-1A
Subject(s): D-48293
Post: An image of an empty standard humanoid containment cell with the caption "TEST" written in red.
Results: A projection identical to the caption appears in the cell. Projection is permeable to physical matter. Projection dissipates after twenty four hours.
Notes: Confirmation of SCP-XXXX anomalous properties. Projection appears to remain only as long as the post is active. Additional testing approved by Project Head Professor Hallow.

Test #: XXXX-1B
Subject(s): D-48293, D-47222
Post: Same as Test #: XXXX-1A, sent from D-48293 to a non-anomalous account used by D-47222. D-47222 positioned in an otherwise empty standard testing chamber.
Results: Standard testing chamber spontaneously restructures to a room identical to that seen in the post. Room returns to a testing chamber after twenty four hours.
Notes: First recorded instance of SCP-XXXX restructuring physical reality.

Extraneous control testing redacted for brevity.

Test #: XXXX-2E
Subject(s): D-48293, D-47222
Post: A text only message reading, "D-47222 is in Site-45's testing chamber 023384" sent from D-48293's SCP-XXXX instance to D-47222's non-anomalous account. Both subjects positioned in an otherwise empty standard humanoid containment cell in Specialized Research and Application Site-68.
Results: D-47222 rapidly dematerializes upon receiving the message. Liquid substance composed of human remains belonging to D-47222 materialize within the designated testing chamber at Site-45. Liquid returns to starting position after twenty four hours.
Notes: Perhaps specifying the subject is to remain alive will allow for safe transportation? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-2F
Subject(s): D-48293, D-32118
Post: A text only message reading, "D-32118 is in Site-45's testing chamber 023384 and alive." sent from D-48293 using SCP-XXXX to a non-anomalous account used by D-32118.
Results: D-32118 rapidly dematerializes upon receiving the message. D-32118 materializes within the designated testing chamber at Site-45. D-32118 does not respond to stimuli, appearing to be in a vegetative state. Autopsy confirms D-32118 had been reconstructed at a cellular level, though D-32118's cells had not been returned to their proper locations.¹¹ D-32118 returns to starting position after twenty four hours. Upon return, D-32118's cellular structure had shifted again.
Notes: Text is not specific enough. Maybe a visual could make it understand? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-2G
Subject(s): D-48293, D-91002
Post: An image of testing chamber 023384 in Site-45 with D-91002 digitally inserted into the room and a caption reading "this is where I, D-91002, am. I am alive, unharmed, and healthy". Posted to D-91002's non-anomalous account by D-48293 using SCP-XXXX.
Results: Upon materialization, D-91002 [DATA EXPUNGED] death of ██ Site-45 personnel before being terminated by on-site security. Remains of D-91002 return to starting position after twenty four hours. Remains transferred to Area-32 deep storage.
Notes: Nearly there. Perhaps if we provide SCP-XXXX with some clear, vocalized instructions as well? -Researcher Burr
Use of SCP-XXXX for transportation, in testing or otherwise, is forbidden from this point onward. -Professor Hallow.

Testing of SCP-XXXX postponed to prioritize SCP-XXXX-Tau research.¹²

Addendum B: On 14/3/18, Junior Researcher ███ discovered an instance of SCP-XXXX-1 written in a restroom stall in Specialized Research and Application Site-68. This SCP-XXXX-1 instance deviated from previously recorded behavior, instead providing credentials for a Level 5 Foundation SCiPnet user account (hereby referred to as SCP-XXXX-Tau). Permission to test the properties of SCP-XXXX-Tau granted on 16/3/18.

SCP-XXXX-Tau Testing Log13

Test #: XXXX-TA
Subject(s): D-70023
Post: Edit of SCP-████ documentation to include the word "Test" at the bottom of the page.
Results: "Test" appears on all copies of SCP-████ documentation, including print copies.
Notes: Site-45 personnel have alerted us that the revision to the SCP-███ documentation cannot be reverted. SCP-XXXX-Tau may permanently rewrite reality. Additional testing is required. -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-TB
Subject(s): D-70023
Post: Edit of SCP-████ documentation to remove the word "Test" at the bottom of the page.
Results: "Test" continues to appear on all SCP-████ documentation.
Notes: All efforts to remove "Test" by XXXX personnel and the Foundation's Records and Information Security Administration (RAISA) have failed. SCP-XXXX-Tau reality shifts presumed permanent.
Seeing as how it has an SCP-XXXX-1, SCP-XXXX-Tau should be able to physically shift reality as an instance of SCP-XXXX would. I propose we abandon the SCP-███ revision for now. Perhaps we can come back to that once we learn more about SCP-XXXX-Tau. -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-TC
Subject(s): D-70023, Junior Researcher █████████
Post: Documentation for a non-existent SCP artifact, described as 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm cube made of glass and stored in Junior Researcher █████████'s coat pocket.
Results: Artifact appears in Junior Researcher █████████'s coat pocket.
Notes: We have established that SCP-XXXX can create. Can it erase? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-TD
Subject(s): D-70023, Junior Researcher █████████
Post: Deletion of the documentation used in Test #: XXXX-TC.
Results: All attempts to delete the document fail.
Notes: We're not thinking about this in the right way. SCP-XXXX-Tau cannot delete documents, but it can edit them. If it's a tool for crafting a narrative, why not use it for that purpose? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-TE
Subject(s): D-70023, Junior Researcher █████████
Post: Edit of the documentation used in Test #s: XXXX-TC; XXXX-TD, revising the Object Class to Neutralized. Additionally, an addendum was added, stating the cube spontaneously evaporated into harmless water vapor and dissipated.
Results: All documentation of the artifact change to reflect the edits. The artifact itself evaporates as described in the document.
Notes: If this behavior is consistent, SCP-XXXX-Tau can neutralize any SCP artifact in our possession. Requesting permission to test SCP-XXXX-Tau for possible Thaumatological use. -Researcher Burr
Permission granted. -Professor Hallow

Extraneous testing redacted. SCP-XXXX-Tau determined to function as hypothesized.

Researcher Jeffery Burr,

We have received and read your proposal to reclassify SCP-XXXX as a Thaumiel class artifact. The council voted 12/1 in motion to deny your request. While the anomalous properties of SCP-XXXX, specifically SCP-XXXX-Tau, certainly appear incredibly beneficial to the Foundation as a whole, the council concluded that its usage would ultimately prove to be detrimental. The advent of simply erasing any anomalies that prove too difficult to contain is tantalizing, however one must remember that we are not the Global Occult Coalition. Blind deletion of anomalies is not the goal of the Foundation.

What if we were to classify something as anomalous and delete it with SCP-XXXX, only to find out it was not anomalous in the first place? As unlikely as it may sound, it has happened before. The Foundation is far from perfect.

We are not here to play God, Researcher Burr. We are not equipped for that.

Hallow: Please elaborate.

I wanted to change their minds. I was going to tell the D-Class to go through the database and neutralize anything that wasn't Thaumiel.

Hallow: Even though that's in direct opposition to our mission statement?

Burr: "Secure. Contain. Protect"? Yeah, we just love tossing that one around, don't we? Well, we certainly have got the first two down, but definitely not "Protect". We throw countless men and women who don't know any better in the line of fire for the sake of "science", and for what? So that we can hoard away all of this useless shit for ourselves? Bide our time? If we fail, everything fails. This is a war, and we can't win. We couldn't win. We are the last line of defense between godless horrors and the world, and we finally found the one thing that could give us a hope of winning. And we're just going to throw it in with the rest of the trash? Just because some overworked, faceless suits told us to?

Results: Post appears on D-47222's account.
Notes: Confirmation of SCP-XXXX anomalous abilities. Additional testing approved by Project Head Professor Hallow.

[EXTRANEOUS CONTROL TESTING REDACTED FOR BREVITY]

Test #: XXXX-2A
Subject(s): D-48293
Post: An image of an empty standard humanoid containment cell with the caption "TEST" written in red.
Results: A projection identical to the caption appears in the cell. Projection is permeable to physical matter. Projection dissipates after twenty four hours.
Notes: Projection appears to remain only as long as the post is active.

Test #: XXXX-2B
Subject(s): D-48293
Post: An image of D-48293 from the shoulders up standing in an otherwise empty standard humanoid containment cell.
Results: A projection of D-48239 appears standing as he did in the image. Projection is cut off identical to where D-48239's shoulder is cut off in the image. Projection is permeable to physical matter. Projection dissipates after twenty four hours.
Notes: N/A

Test #: XXXX-2C
Subject(s): D-48293, D-47222
Post: A three second video of D-47222 walking out of an otherwise empty standard human containment cell. Video recorded by D-48239.
Results: A projection of D-47222 walking out of the cell. Projection is cut off when it reaches the point where D-47222 walks off frame. Projection is permeable to physical matter. Projection repeats for twenty four hours before dissipating.
Notes: Lab results reveal SCP-XXXX projections are caused by a repositioning of light particles.

Test #: XXXX-2D
Subject(s): D-48293, D-47222
Post: Same as Test #: XXXX-2A, sent from D-48293 to a non-anomalous account used by D-47222. D-47222 positioned in an otherwise empty standard testing chamber.
Results: Standard testing chamber spontaneously restructures to a room identical to that seen in the post. Room returns to a testing chamber after twenty four hours.
Notes: First recorded instance of SCP-XXXX restructuring physical reality.

Test #: XXXX-2E
Subject(s): D-48293, D-47222
Post: A text only message reading, "D-47222 is in Site-45's testing chamber 023384" sent from D-48293's SCP-XXXX instance to D-47222's non-anomalous account. Both subjects positioned in an otherwise empty standard humanoid containment cell in Specialized Research and Application Site-68.
Results: D-47222 rapidly dematerializes upon receiving the message. Liquified human remains belonging to D-47222 materialize within the designated testing chamber at Site-45. Remains returned to starting position after twenty four hours.
Notes: Perhaps specifying the subject is to remain alive will allow for safe transportation? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-2F
Subject(s): D-48293, D-32118
Post: A text only message reading, "D-32118 is in Site-45's testing chamber 023384 and alive." sent from D-48293 using SCP-XXXX to a non-anomalous account used by D-32118.
Results: D-32118 rapidly dematerializes upon receiving the message. Liquified human remains belonging to D-32118 materialize within the designated testing chamber at Site-45. Remains do not cease life function. Remains returned to starting position after twenty four hours.
Notes: If text cannot be used for transportation, perhaps images can? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-2G
Subject(s): D-48293, D-91002
Post: An image of testing chamber 023384 in Site-45 with D-91002 digitally inserted into the room and a caption reading "this is where I, D-91002, am. I am alive, unarmed, and unaltered". Posted to D-91002's non-anomalous account by D-48293 using SCP-XXXX.

Post: A video call between D-48239 using SCP-XXXX and D-91002 using a non-anomalous account.
Results: N/A
Notes: Test not conducted due to discovery of SCP-XXXX-Tau.

[TESTING OF SCP-XXXX POSTPONED TO PRIOITIZE SCP-XXXX-TAU RESEARCH¹⁸]

Addendum B: On 14/3/18, Junior Researcher ███ discovered an instance of SCP-XXXX-1 written in a restroom stall in Specialized Research and Application Site-68. This SCP-XXXX-1 instance deviated from previously recorded behavior, instead providing credentials for a Level 5 Foundation SCiPnet user account (hereby referred to as SCP-XXXX-Tau). Permission to test the properties of SCP-XXXX-Tau granted on 16/3/18.

SCP-XXXX-Tau Testing Log19

Test #: XXXX-TA
Subject(s): D-70023
Post: Edit of SCP-████ documentation to include the word "Test" at the bottom of the page.
Results: "Test" appears on all copies of SCP-████ documentation, including print copies.
Notes: Professor Jameson says he can't erase "Test" from the bottom of ████. Tau shifts might only be reversible through Tau. -Professor Hallow

Test #: XXXX-TB
Subject(s): D-70023
Post: Edit of SCP-████ documentation to remove the word "Test" at the bottom of the page.
Results: "Test" continues to appear on all SCP-████ documentation.
Notes: All efforts to remove "Test" by XXXX personnel and the Foundation's Records and Information Security Administration (RAISA) have failed. SCP-XXXX-Tau reality shifts presumed permanent.

Test #: XXXX-TC
Subject(s): D-70023, Junior Researcher █████████
Post: Documentation for a non-existent SCP artifact, described as 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm cube made of glass and stored in Junior Researcher █████████'s coat pocket.
Results: Artifact appears in Junior Researcher █████████'s coat pocket.
Notes: First recorded instance of SCP-XXXX-Tau shifting physical reality.

Test #: XXXX-TD
Subject(s): D-70023, Junior Researcher █████████
Post: Deletion of the documentation used in Test #: XXXX-TC.
Results: All attempts to delete the document fail.
Notes: Maybe we're not thinking about this in the right way. SCP-XXXX-Tau may conform to a narrative, if we were to craft one. -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-TE
Subject(s): D-70023, Junior Researcher █████████
Post: Edit of the documentation used in Test #s: XXXX-TC; XXXX-TD, revising the Object Class to Neutralized. Additionally, an addendum was added, stating the cube spontaneously evaporated into harmless water vapor and dissipated.
Results: All documentation of the artifact change to reflect the edits. The artifact itself evaporates as described in the document.
Notes: SCP-XXXX-Tau may be the single best discovery the Foundation has made to date. There is no time to waste, we must utilize this boon before it is too late. -Researcher Burr

Addendum C: On 19/3/18, Researcher Burr proposed to reclassify SCP-XXXX as Thaumiel submitted to O5 Council by Researcher Burr. Proposal denied on 20/3/18.

Re: SCP-XXXX Reclassification Request
from: [VERIFIED O5 ACCOUNT]
to: ten.pics|3rrubej#ten.pics|3rrubej
cc: ten.pics|4llahik#ten.pics|4llahik

Researcher Jeffery Burr,
We have received and read your proposal to reclassify SCP-XXXX as a Thaumiel class artifact. The council voted 12/1 in motion to deny your request. While the anomalous properties of SCP-XXXX, specifically SCP-XXXX-Tau, certainly appear incredibly beneficial to the Foundation as a whole, the council concluded that it's usage would prove to be detrimental. The advent of simply erasing any anomalies that prove too difficult to contain is tantalizing, however one must remember that we are not the Global Occult Coalition. Blind deletion of anomalies is not the goal of the Foundation.

What if we were to classify something as anomalous and delete it with SCP-XXXX, only to find out it was not anomalous in the first place? As unlikely as it may sound, it has happened before. The Foundation is far from perfect.

We are not here to play God, Researcher Burr. We aren't equipped for that.

-O5-2

Secure. Contain. Protect.

Incident Log XXXX 20/3/18: On 20/3/18, Researcher Burr breached containment of SCP-XXXX-Tau and instructed D-70023 to neutralize as many SCP artifacts as possible before on-site security intervened. Incident resulted in the neutralization of [DATA EXPUNGED] SCP artifacts, and the containment breach of ██. Researcher Burr terminated on sight and D-70023 detained by on-site security. The following note was found on Researcher Burr's person.

idiots, theyre idiots, all of them.
they dont understand it.
what we found is the key to all of this.
it doesnt have to stop with the artifacts.
we can bring about world peace
end world hunger

Special Containment Procedures for SCP-XXXX updated as of 21/3/18 to prevent similar incidents from occurring.

 Skelekey Version 1 Last edited 3/21/18

An instance of SCP-XXXX-1/Epsilon, discovered in Chicago Transit Authority train car ████. Discovery date 19/2/2018.

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: Foundation web crawlers are to monitor the internet for instances of SCP-XXXX. Users of active instances are to be identified and detained. D-Class personnel assigned to an instance of SCP-XXXX are to monitor the account and prevent civilian discovery. Foundation agents embedded in the sanitation departments of major population centers are to monitor high-traffic areas for instances of SCP-XXXX-1. Instances of SCP-XXXX-1 are to be catalogued and sent to Specialized Research and Application Site-68. Access to platforms containing SCP-XXXX is forbidden to Level 2/XXXX through Level 3/XXXX personnel.

UPDATE 21/3/18: Testing of SCP-XXXX/Tau has been postponed indefinitely. D-Class assigned to SCP-XXXX/Tau are to be kept in a medically induced coma and fifty (50) meters away from any device with the ability to connect to the internet.

Description: SCP-XXXX is the collective designation assigned to user accounts named "skelekey_███".²⁰ SCP-XXXX instances can post content to any other user account hosted on the same platform, as well as edit any preexisting content uploaded from other users. It is unknown if SCP-XXXX manifest independently, or are created purposely by some entity.²¹ SCP-XXXX has been found on ███ internet-based platforms, mostly social network websites and mobile applications. The only known way of logging into SCP-XXXX is through corresponding SCP-XXXX-1.

SCP-XXXX-1 are alphabetical and numerical sequences that, when entered in a search field of an accompanying internet platform, will produce an instance of SCP-XXXX in the search results. Accessing an instance of SCP-XXXX through SCP-XXXX-1 will instantly log the user in, logging them out of any accounts currently being used. Once logged in, it becomes impossible for the user to log out from SCP-XXXX or log into any account that isn't SCP-XXXX. Additionally, access to that SCP-XXXX becomes restricted to that user.

SCP-XXXX-1 is commonly spread through graffiti, providing both an instance of SCP-XXXX-1 and an accompanying platform. As with SCP-XXXX, it is unknown who or what creates instances of SCP-XXXX-1, though the inks, paints, and other materials commonly used are confirmed to be non-anomalous commercial products.

Addendum: Below is a summarized list of notable SCP-XXXX instances. Access to full document available per request.

SCP-XXXX Instance List22
Designation	Platform	Account Type	Notes
SCP-XXXX/Epsilon	"Snapchat" mobile application	Standard user account	On █/██/20██, 3:17 a.m. central standard time, an instance of SCP-XXXX-1/Epsilon appeared in a commercial for the television series [REDACTED], reading "Learn the truth. SC: ████ ███". Following exposure, forty two (42) images of [REDACTED], the show's male lead, were posted to his account, depicting him engaging in various sexual acts. The commercial was pulled by Foundation agents, and image leaks covered with story of a rogue hacker gaining access to [REDACTED]'s account.
SCP-XXXX/Zeta	www.facebook.com	"Local Business" account	In 99% of all recorded cases, subjects will create a Community page for fans of the 1975 live-action television sitcom "The Ghost Busters", regardless of the subject's knowledge of the show.
SCP-XXXX/Iota	www.twitter.com	"Verified" user account	On █/██/201█, an instance of SCP-XXXX/Zeta posted a "promoted tweet" reading "The time is soon. The world will change.", accompanied by a crude Kentsen-Rantz lethal memetic hazard. An estimated two hundred and fifty three (253) civilians were exposed to the hazard. Foundation anti-memetic web crawlers were able to intercept the post, and the culprit was detained.
SCP-XXXX/Mu	www.youtube.com	User account	The only recorded instance of SCP-XXXX/Mu has continuously uploaded a single video entitled "62npoje73d" once a day starting on ██/██/200█. The video is three (3) seconds long and will shift between seemingly random shapes and colors. User yet to be identified. Current hypothesis suggests [DATA EXPUNGED] the account.
SCP-XXXX/Tau	Foundation SCiPnet Computer System	Level 5 Personnel	On 14/3/18, SCP-XXXX/Tau-1 was discovered written in marker in a bathroom stall in Specialized Research and Application Site-68. Junior Researcher ██ recognized it as an instance of SCP-XXXX-1 and reported it to acting HMCL supervisor ███. During initial testing, the exposed D-Class showed signs of extreme distress, before suddenly disappearing. It was later discovered that all data mentioning SCP-XXXX/Tau and the exposed D-Class had been deleted from all Foundation systems and replaced with text reading "SCP-XXXX/Tau does not exist". It is presumed that edits done through SCP-XXXX/Tau are reflected in reality, though witnesses' memories appear to be unaffected. SCP-XXXX/Tau testing postponed indefinitely.

Last week's incident with SCP-XXXX/Tau is concerning to say the least. Even though we haven't found any more of them, I've postponed all testing on Tau for now just to be safe. All XXXX personnel should be on the lookout for any other instances that behave in an irregular way. Remember, the only thing standing between anomalous internet trolls and the world is you.

-Professor Kira Hallow, Specialized Research and Application Site-68

 notes and scrapped ideas/writing

Blue stuff is old disregard it. It refers to previous drafts.
Authors note I came up with when in bed : SCP-XXXX-1 have cognitohazard that make amino acid chain in brain of observer. Chain activates when viewing corresponding SCP-XXXX, making the funny anomaly happen. Amino chain is harmless if not exposed to corresponding scp-xxxx. viewing and friending scp_XSXX by someone who dont have the amino acid chain has no anomalous efects. shits still keter but its less "oooohhh scary in the wild uncontain" after a certain amount of time the chain dissapates and you are no longer affected by SCP-XXXX or -1. Brain alterations range form 'fixable with surgery' to ' oh fuck'. ties to 1769? maybe make footnote of that. fuck this is just 3299 make it different somehow. Perhaps its one account name shared over several websites. maybe SCP-XXXX-1 should be the brain modification, makes more sense. Graffiti can be lumped into SCP-XXXX maybe, or perhaps an SCP-XXXX-2 is needed. Glial cells make new brain part that connects to internet? Does it raise Hume levels? Get some Kant counters on this shit. Maybe K. H. does experiment to get XXXX in scipnet? Maybe thats whats going down at essrass sixty-eight tau? May take in new direction, SCP-XXXX are 'skeleton key' accounts that can post/function as any account. Thaumatology can still come into play with SCiPnet instance.

Special Containment Procedures: Foundation agents embedded in the sanitation departments of all major cities are to implement anti-graffiti laws and regulations. Due to the high chance of civilian discovery, instances of SCP-XXXX and SCP-XXXX-1 are to be neutralized following categorization.

Foundation web crawlers are to monitor the internet for use of SCP-XXXX. Confirmed instances of SCP-XXXX are to be neutralized after discovery through use of standard internet censorship procedures. New instances of SCP-XXXX, or instances undergoing testing are to be neutralized after two (2) weeks.²³

D-Class personnel assigned to SCP-XXXX are forbidden interaction with any other D-Class, assigned to SCP-XXXX or otherwise. D-Class are to be stationed at either Remote Test Site-45, or Specialized Research and Application Site-68-τ (SRAS-68-τ). D-Class are to undergo bi-weekly brain scans, including Dynamic Computed Tomography, Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy scans. Civilians expressing symptoms consistent with SCP-XXXX alterations are to be detained and transferred to Area-32, enlisted as D-Class personnel, and assigned to a corresponding SCP-XXXX instance.

Description: SCP-XXXX is the designation given to online user accounts named "████ ███". SCP-XXXX has been found on ███ internet-based platforms, comprised mostly of social network websites and mobile applications. All attempts to contact/communicate with SCP-XXXX instances have yielded no response. It is unknown if SCP-XXXX instances manifest independently, or created purposely by some entity.²⁴. SCP-XXXX instances contain the secondary component of a two-stage cognitohazard. When combined with the primer found in SCP-XXXX-1, the observer will begin to undergo drastic neurological alterations²⁵.

SCP-XXXX-1 is the designation given to graffiti of SCP-XXXX. SCP-XXXX-1 commonly appear in public places with high traffic, such as subway train cars or public bathrooms. In addition to SCP-XXXX, SCP-XXXX-1 instances list a website or mobile application, accompanied by a message encouraging the reader to "Add", "Follow", "Friend", "Subscribe to", etc. SCP-XXXX.²⁶ As with SCP-XXXX, it is unknown who or what creates instances of SCP-XXXX-1, though the inks, paints, and other such materials commonly used are confirmed to be non-anomalous commercial products. SCP-XXXX-1 instances contain the primary component of a two-stage cognitohazard. When combined with the trigger found in SCP-XXXX, the observer will begin to undergo drastic neurological alterations²⁷.

Addendum A: Viewing an instance of SCP-XXXX-1 will infect the observer with the primary component of a two stage cognitohazard. Observer's brains begin to produce similar to those usually only found during early stages of human development. The cells will float in brain fluid for approximately twenty four (24) hours, and will not enter an active state if an instance of SCP-XXXX is not observed during the 24 hour period. However, if an instance of SCP-XXXX is observed, the secondary component will activate, beginning the second phase. The cells will begin accelerated neurogenesis, forming a small gland in the frontal lobe. The gland is presumed to be the source of subjects reality bending abilities, as Hume levels of afflicted subjects rise to .9/1.6²⁸. Other growths/alterations may occur, depending on the SCP-XXXX instance observed.

Addendum A: Below is a testing log of SCP-XXXX instances to determine the limitations of it's properties.

SCP-XXXX Testing Log29

Test #: XXXX-1A
Subject(s): D-48293
Post: An image of an empty standard humanoid containment cell with the caption "TEST" written in red.
Results: A projection identical to the caption appears in the cell. Projection is permeable to physical matter. Projection dissipates after twenty four hours.
Notes: Confirmation of SCP-XXXX anomalous properties. Projection appears to remain only as long as the post is active. Additional testing approved by Project Head Professor Hallow.

Test #: XXXX-1B
Subject(s): D-48293, D-47222
Post: Same as Test #: XXXX-1A, sent from D-48293 to a non-anomalous account used by D-47222. D-47222 positioned in an otherwise empty standard testing chamber.
Results: Standard testing chamber spontaneously restructures to a room identical to that seen in the post. Room returns to a testing chamber after twenty four hours.
Notes: First recorded instance of SCP-XXXX restructuring physical reality.

Extraneous control testing redacted for brevity.

Test #: XXXX-2E
Subject(s): D-48293, D-47222
Post: A text only message reading, "D-47222 is in Site-45's testing chamber 023384" sent from D-48293's SCP-XXXX instance to D-47222's non-anomalous account. Both subjects positioned in an otherwise empty standard humanoid containment cell in Specialized Research and Application Site-68.
Results: D-47222 rapidly dematerializes upon receiving the message. Liquid substance composed of human remains belonging to D-47222 materialize within the designated testing chamber at Site-45. Liquid returns to starting position after twenty four hours.
Notes: Perhaps specifying the subject is to remain alive will allow for safe transportation? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-2F
Subject(s): D-48293, D-32118
Post: A text only message reading, "D-32118 is in Site-45's testing chamber 023384 and alive." sent from D-48293 using SCP-XXXX to a non-anomalous account used by D-32118.
Results: D-32118 rapidly dematerializes upon receiving the message. D-32118 materializes within the designated testing chamber at Site-45. D-32118 does not respond to stimuli, appearing to be in a vegetative state. Autopsy confirms D-32118 had been reconstructed at a cellular level, though D-32118's cells had not been returned to their proper locations.³⁰ D-32118 returns to starting position after twenty four hours. Upon return, D-32118's cellular structure had shifted again.
Notes: Text is not specific enough. Maybe a visual could make it understand? -Researcher Burr

Test #: XXXX-2G
Subject(s): D-48293, D-91002
Post: An image of testing chamber 023384 in Site-45 with D-91002 digitally inserted into the room and a caption reading "this is where I, D-91002, am. I am alive, unharmed, and healthy". Posted to D-91002's non-anomalous account by D-48293 using SCP-XXXX.
Results: Upon materialization, D-91002 [DATA EXPUNGED] death of ██ Site-45 personnel before being terminated by on-site security. Remains of D-91002 return to starting position after twenty four hours. Remains transferred to Area-32 deep storage.
Notes: Nearly there. Perhaps if we provide SCP-XXXX with some clear, vocalized instructions as well? -Researcher Burr
Use of SCP-XXXX for transportation, in testing or otherwise, is forbidden from this point onward. -Professor Hallow.

Testing of SCP-XXXX postponed to prioritize SCP-XXXX-Tau research.³¹

Interviewed: Researcher Jeffery Burr

Interviewer: Professor Kira Hallow

Foreword: Interview conducted on Site-45 approximately thirty minutes after Researcher Burr attempted to breach SCP-XXXX-Tau containment.

<Begin Log>

Hallow: Please state your name for the record.

Burr: They all know who I am.

Hallow: Please state your name for the record.

Burr: Jeffery Burr. Researcher. Level three.

Hallow: Researcher Burr, wha-

Burr: We don't need the formalities, you're just drawing this out now.

Hallow: Researcher Burr, I am aware that Foundation protocol is not something you hold to any sort of high regard, but I must ask that you-

Burr: Please, there's no poi-

Hallow: Researcher Burr, I am going to demand that you stop interrupting me.

Burr: Oh, yes sir, sorry sir.

[silence]

Hallow: Please inform me as to why you would attempt to breach the containment of a Euclid class object, Researcher Burr.

Burr: That's why I did it. Because SCP-XXXX is Euclid.

Hallow: Please elaborate.

Burr: You saw my proposal. And I know you saw it get shot down, O5-2 cced you. "Tighten that leash Hallow, one of your underlings has a good idea!"

Hallow: I would prefer it if you refrained from any extraneous comments, Researcher Burr.

Burr: Alright then. SCP-XXXX-Tau should be Thaumiel, that's my reason. We have a tool that lets us replace anything with thin air and we're just going to sit on it. I wanted to change their minds, prove them wrong, something.

Hallow: How would breaching containment of SCP-XXXX-Tau accomplish that?

Burr: Overwatch knows what it's capable of. They said we're not "equipped to play God", but that can't be the truth, not when we have SCP-XXXX-Tau. They're afraid that it could be used against them, either purposely or on accident.

Hallow: What you just said is merely an loose interpretation the Council's statements from their denial of your request, Researcher Burr. It does not provide a reason as to why you attempted what you did.

Burr: There are two things that could have happened. The first is what the Council wanted to happen, and what ended up happening. SCP-XXXX-Tau is locked up with the rest of our artifacts and forgotten about.

Hallow: And the second?

Burr: The second thing is what I tried to do and what should have happened. My plan was to tell the D-Class to go through the database and start neutralizing anything that wasn't Thaumiel, starting with the Keter artifacts. All he had to do was rewrite the object classes and they'd be gone. We wouldn't have been able to get rid of all of them, but we could certainly lighten the load enough to make sure the Foundation isn't as spread thin as we are now. I knew I would be caught, probably killed or worse, but someone had to do it. I had to do it.

Hallow: Despite knowing your actions were in direct opposition to our mission statement?

Burr: My actions would have prevented the deaths of thousands! Are you saying that isn't what we're trying to do? You know the Council is wrong, Kira. I know you do!

Hallow: Don't tell me what I know, Jeffery.

[silence]

Hallow: We're done here.
