SCP-XXXX
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is currently contained in the medical wing of facility ██████████, in an induced coma. SCP-XXXX is being kept safe, fed, and hydrated. Dr.███████ also performs regular medical check ups, keeping SCP-XXXX healthy and alive is a top priority.
Waking SCP-XXXX from it’s coma is not prohibited, but will only be authorized with Level Three (3) clearance. If clearance is provided, a security team of four (4) armed guards will restrain it, and then Dr.███████ will begin the process of waking it up. Once completed, the guards will then escort SCP-XXXX to containment cell ████. The cell is padded, and contains no items that SCP-XXXX could use to harm itself or others. These are precautionary measures, as any well trained guard should have no issue restraining it.
Once these steps are complete the interview may begin. Interviews are allowed to be as long as the interviewer deems necessary, provided they do not exceed seventy-two (72) hours. Interviews currently are simply Q&A, a request has been filled to attempt enhanced forms of interrogation but they have yet to be authorized due to the risk they place on SCP-XXXX’s life. Once either the time limit, or the interview reached its conclusion SCP-XXXX will be, once more, put into a coma and hooked back into its feeding and hydration tubes.
Description: SCP-XXXX currently appears to be Mr. ████, a human male twenty-five (25) years of age. Its features, height, and build are that of Mr. ████. DNA tests support these observations. Though it does not respond to that name, or to any other element of Mr.████ life, including surviving family.
This is however not the only form SCP-XXXX has taken, corpses of previous incarnations can be found in storage facility ████.
SCP-XXXX itself has no appearance, and instead controls the body of individuals from around the world.The only identifying markers of SCP-XXXX is neuroimaging of the bodies it currently resides reveals a level of brain activity similar to that of a sleeping person, no matter how awake or active it is at the time.
The other, more obvious marker, is when it first meets a person/persons it will proclaim "I am John Wallden, I must save us all, I am so very sorry." Before attacking those individuals with the most dangerous weapon available to it, including its teeth. No detail of the proclamation has ever changed, no matter the race, gender, creed, or language of the individual it resides in. SCP-XXXX also does not make this statement to all individuals it interacts with, though there is no apparent connection to those that it does.
SCP-XXXX does not in anyway enhance the physical capabilities of its host. However, the toll it takes on the subjects body is emensie, and appears to grow worse with each new incarnation. What starts as subtle changes, becomes easily spotted given enough time. Green pigmentation of the skin, coagulopathy combined with internal bleeding and organ failure, as well as loss of hair, teeth, and fingernails. SCP-XXXX appears to be in severe pain when not sedated, though it is still fixated on its goal. We are currently looking into ways to prolong SCP-XXXX’s life, this is considered top priority. Current incarnation has been around for ██ months. It has already begun to degrade, showing 5% increase in the rate the body is destroyed.
SCP-XXXX can be killed, and will die as easily as the average human, however once it does, as far as we can tell, a random human on earth will become, for lack of a better term, possessed by SCP-XXXX. The corpse of previous incarnations remain. DNA examination of all ██████████ corpses, and the living specimen has helped us track the actions of SCP-XXXX, though no apparent pattern has appeared.
Finally SCP-XXXX must first and foremost be protected from itself. It seems aware of its immortality and will attempt suicide as a way to escape. Methods have included hanging, self inflicted wounds with fingers and mouth, and starvation.
Discovery: SCP-XXXX was first spotted just outside ███████, in the body of Mrs. ███████, and is believed to be responsible for the massacre that happened in the area. Law enforcement attempted to apprehend it, resulting in its death. At the moment of its termination, it took over the body of Captain ███████, while he was in ███████, and is responsible for the deaths of ███████, ███████, and ███████.
It is currently unclear where SCP-XXXX comes from, the nature of its abilities, or what its goals are. Investigation into historical, or modern records of the name John Wallden have so far been inconclusive.
