Item #: SCP-3xxx
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-3xxx refers to an safety pamphlet written in English entitled "Safe Working Conditions and You: A Factory Guide". SCP-3xxx is not printed on paper, but on a form of vellum of unknown composition, and consists of forty-one pages.
Individuals who read SCP-3xxx
Item #: SCP-3xxx
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: Efforts are undergoing to dismantle SCP-3xxx from within the US Government; however, due to the current presidential administration, as well as the Foundation continuing to support institutions such as the Unusual Incidents Unit and the CDC's Exomedical Unit, these may not be effective until the next administration.
Description: SCP-3xxx refers to the former Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance, a division of both the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and the Drug Enforcement Administration, part of the US Department of Justice. It, along with the Unusual Incidents Unit, is responsible for policing the propagation of anomalous weapons technology and pharmaceuticals within the United States and its territories. In the past, SCP-3xxx has taken down smuggling operations for drugs such as Vicarious and products of The Stuff Industries, as well as preventing the trafficking of weapons created by anomalous entities, such as SCP-2873 guidance chips.
SCP-3xxx is composed of the former agents and employees of the Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance (SCP-3xxx-01) their technology (SCP-3xxx-02) and the items that are currently within its evidence lockup (SCP-3xxx-03)
SCP-3xxx-01 instances appear to be physically human, but completely lack a central nervous system and neurological matter. SCP-3xxx-01 instances do not appear to have an organic cellular structure; instead, they appear be composed of a number of anomalous narcotics, including, but not limited to, Vicarious, Spirit Dust,1 Black Glass,2 and Bender.3 Exposure to the immediate proximity or physical contact with an SCP-3xxx-01 instance can result in the unintentional exposure to one or more anomalous chemical compounds. Thankfully, SCP-3xxx-01 instances leave the ATF headquarters at an exceptionally low rate, and public sightings outside the structure housing SCP-3XXX are rarer.
SCP-3xxx-02 instances refer to all computers within the former Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance headquarters. Prior to the manifestation of anomalous properties, all computers in the building ran on either Windows XP or Windows 7 Operating Systems; currently, SCP-3xxx-02 instances appear to run on a version of Windows 10, albeit one that is far less efficient than a non-anomalous instance. All desktop space on observed SCP-XXXX-02 instances are occupied with executable shortcuts featuring symbols and characters commonly seen as invalid characters by operating systems; cameras within the SCP-3xxx headquarters have shown that these links all lead to an Amazon Prime account homepage, whose name is in similarly garbled text..
If an individual who is not an SCP-3xxx-01 instance interacts with an SCP-3xxx-02 instance, the following actions will occur over the course of five minutes:
- 0:00-0:30: Individual will stop upon touching a component of an SCP-3xxx-02 instance and stand, shoulders slumped, staring at the screen of the SCP-3xxx-02 instance. If no screen is present, it will stare at the nearest SCP-3xxx-02 instance's screen.
- 0:30-2:00: The individual will disrobe, after which its clothing is collected by SCP-3xxx-01 instances and disposed of.
- 2:00-5:00: The individual will attempt to insert itself into the screen of the SCP-3xxx-02 instance. This entry will be unimpeded by the screen itself, but may be impeded by the dimensions of the screen, necessitating an SCP-3xxx-01 instance to sever one or more extremities. When the individual fully enters the SCP-3xxx-02 instance, the screen will flicker, and a new icon will appear.
The evidence locker of SCP-3xxx-03 is filled exclusively with SCP-3xxx-03 instances. SCP-3xxx-03 instances consist of paraphernalia and items used in the creation, consumption, and sale of anomalous narcotics. All items that SCP-3xxx had in evidence related to its investigation into anomalous weapons smuggling has been destroyed or disposed of by SCP-3xxx-01 instances, leaving only items related to anomalous narcotics.
SCP-XXXX-01 instances have been observed manufacturing anomalous narcotics with the usage of SCP-XXX-03 instances. The resulting processes have created byproducts consisting of noxious gasses that adversely affect the nervous system. No gasses have been observed outside the evidence locker where SCP-XXXX-03 instances are kept.
Observations have concluded that SCP-3xxx-01 use their own bodies to create anomalous narcotics with SCP-3xxx-03. These narcotics appear to leave the building via insertion into SCP-3xxx-02 instances, bound for an unknown destination.
Manifestation: Following the 2016 Presidential election, Foundation monitors within the Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance noted a marked change of personnel behavior. Originally, the behavior was attributed to anxiety over job security, as the then-president elect, while not having knowledge of the agencies within the United States Government that deal with anomalous activity, had notable conflicts with the Department of Justice during his campaign.
Over the course of November and December 2016, it became clear that the Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance had developed, or was developing, an intrinsic anomaly. Several members of the Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance were reported missing by their families, having not left their offices at ATF Headquarters since the night of the election. A Foundation monitor was inserted to question Anthony McKnight, director of the Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance.
Agent Miles: Director McKnight, sorry to trouble you on such short notice.
Director McKnight: Believe me, you're a welcome break. It's been hellish here since the 9th.
Agent Miles: If your concern is job security, then we can assure you it's not a problem; PDA4 forbids the dissolution of any US Government agency or office which deals with the paranormal, and we have the right to oust any member of congress that tries to sponsor a bill that does so.
Director McKnight: It's not just that. Something… I feel like something's cracked in here. Almost everyone was in the office that night, watching the election on TV, and… well, when it happened. McKnight sighs. Did you know that calls to the crisis hotlines spiked starting on the 10th?
Agent Miles: I'm aware, yes.
Director McKnight: A dozen outgoing calls were made from this office to various crisis hotlines— I checked the numbers a few days ago. Of course, we couldn't say anything— the gag orders5 made sure of that. McKnight shakes his head. We record everything that goes into and out of this office. And… they were screaming. Sounded like the screams from Body Snatchers— the '78 one.
Agent Miles: Several of your employees have been reported missing. I suggest you send them home. Miles passes a list of the employees in question to McKnight. Could we have those recordings? Screaming isn't usually a result of a gag order being strained.
Director McKnight: I'll have them sent to the usual place.
Agent Miles: Might not be the best idea— there was a leak a while back that we managed to garble into nonsense, but people still believe it. We've a listening post operating out of the Five Guys at L'Enfant plaza, drop it there.
Director McKnight: I'll bring 'em myself. I've needed an excuse for a burger for a while now.
The recordings delivered by Director McKnight were analyzed, and the screams recorded were found to all be from the same individual over the course of a dozen calls. These screams do not match human vocal patterns.
Seven individuals— now known to be SCP-3xxx-01 instances —were sent home. En route to their residences, over 700 residents of Washington, DC were exposed to at least one form of anomalous chemical agent. At their homes, these individuals proceeded to expose their families to the same substances, resulting in a total of 14 deaths by overdose.
An SCP-3xxx-01 instance, formerly Reggie Byers, was brought in for questioning by the Unusual Incidents Unit, who used a Foundation biohazard containment facility in the DC area to conduct their interview.
Agent Crowe: Reggie, what did you do?
Byers sits in silence.
Agent Crowe: Your wife's dead, Reggie, and your kid's critical. They're both dosed up on Black Glass and Crypto6, and Chroma7 and god knows what else.
Byers continues to sit in silence, wiping a tear from his eye. Agent Crowe addresses his superior using the speaker in the interview room.
Agent Crowe: He's crying.
Cpl. Mooney: Well, at least we know he can hear us. I don't know what the fuck to think.
Agent Crowe: His daughter said that he was acting weird when he got home. Hugged his wife and son too tight— she bugged out and went to a friend's house.
Cpl. Mooney: Smart kid. Probably saved her life. Keep pressing him.
Agent Crowe: Yes sir. Crowe resumes addressing Byers Reggie, you're facing charges of terrorism. You and the other six— hundreds are sick because of paradrugs that you put out there. Tell us what happened, and we'll try to keep the racist orange that's about to become president from throwing you into the Hellgate.8
Byers continues crying. After approximately 30 seconds, Byers ceases respiration.
Agent Crowe: Sir? Something's wrong. I… I don't think he's breathing.
Byers begins slamming their head against the desk he's seated by. Several crystaline pieces of flesh fly off after the fourth slam. Agent Crowe, startled, flees the room through the airlock.
Byers continues slamming their head against the table for several minutes, until it spontaneously explodes, sending shards of a crystaline material around the room; the crystals match Byers's skin and hair color. Byers's body proceeds to stand up, at which point tears continue flowing out of their neck.A quasi-mortem9 examination found that Byers's body was made up entirely of crystaline structures with a layer of dermis on the exterior. Rudimentary circulatory and respiratory systems existed, but all hollow cavities in the body were filled with tears.
The other SCP-3xxx-01 instances were found to have similar anomalies; several other members of the Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance were found to have not left their headquarters. Anthony McKnight was denied entry upon attempting to return to his desk, following the delivery of the aforementioned recordings. The following excerpt is from a phone call with Agent Miles:
McKnight: I gotta be honest with you… I'm calling you because I need a ride.
Agent Miles: You're kidding. Did your brand new goddamn Benz break down on you?
McKnight: No, I-I can't get to my desk, and I left my keys there. I took the metro to get to L'Enfant.
Agent Miles: Can't get to your— what do you mean?
McKnight: There was a blockade of my agents at the door, and they all just kind of… stared at me. I felt like that if I tried to g-get through them, something bad would happen. A-and the bus lines are all shut down, taxis are down, something about a fucking chemical attack?
Director McKnight: Lobby of the ATF building. Why?
Agent Miles: I'm gonna come get you. I'll explain as much as I can on the way.
Miles briefed McKnight on the events that had transpired; upon testing, McKnight, along with five other Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance agents who were not present in the ATF building on November 8th, and 9th, were found to be non-anomalous. These individuals have all been denied entry into the former headquarters by SCP-3xxx-01 instances.
On December 4th, 2016, a single SCP-3xxx-01 instance (formerly Agent Edward Valentine) left the Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance office, and delivered a typed note to a visiting Foundation Liaison Walter Daniels, who was coordinating with the ATF on an unrelated case. Agent Valentine established brief communication with the liaison.
Agent Daniels: Eddie, down on the ground.
Agent Valentine: W-we're sick. We're all sick, and it wants to cure us. It wants me to cure you, but I'm not sick. I'm a pill, it wants me to be a pill. Agent Valentine begins to cry. I-I can speak, I'm the only one that can. The rest of us just make pills and send them out.
Agent Daniels: Send them out? What are you—
Agent Valentine: Five tech support guys have gone missing. We did it. They're in our computers. We fed them to the Amazon. Agent Valentine coughs loudly N-no. God, please, I-I have a wife, I have kids, I—
Agent Daniels: We can get you help, we can get you to them. Just tell us—
Agent Valentine: S-s-s-s-s-s-special delivery for you.
Agent Daniels: What?
At this point, Agent Valentine's body disintegrated into over 1,333,333 60mg capsules of Atomoxetine. Under this mass of pills was a brown paper package with Amazon Prime labeling on it, including tracking data. Analysis of this data indicates that the item within the package is a form of homeopathic contraceptive; the contents were found to be an as of yet undetermined quantity of human ova whose DNA matched Agent Daniels, despite the fact that Agent Daniels is biologically male.
[unfinished]
The Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance was placed under quarantine, with the Unusual Incidents Unit taking over its duties.
On 1/20/2017, the following message was found written in blue powder (later found to be pure SCP-484) over the sign for the Department of Anomalous Drugs and Ordinance; all but four letters had been removed from the sign prior to the writing's discovery.
the world is sick
countries cough, we have the cure
you're sick, we're sick, have a lollypop
the world is sick? we have pills.

Item #: SCP-3xxx
Object Class: Keter Neutralized
Special Containment Procedures: Institutions involved in the fields of aerospace and particle physics are to be monitored for signs of SCP-3xxx attacks. Following any major attack made on an organization such as these, Foundation investigative teams equipped with radiocarbon dating equipment are to be dispatched to test for evidence of the usage of weapons beyond the present day. SCP-3xxx devices are largely inert, and may be kept in standard containment lockers.
At no point is Dr. Liam Maxwell (Temporal Anomalies Department Level-3) to be allowed access to this file. Attempts made to access this file by Dr. Maxwell will redirect him to a dummy file containing data on an unrelated anomaly. Dr. Maxwell's work on Project Backfire is crucial, and there is a high chance (based on observed timelines) that his discovery of the true nature of SCP-3xxx will result in his discontinuation of this project.
Description: SCP-3xxx refers to a series of anomalous weapons of varying designs. SCP-3xxx instances most commonly take the form of explosive devices, but chemical and biological weaponry, including anomalous weaponry, have been observed in several instances.
SCP-3xxx instances originate from some point in the future, and are believed to be sent back in time by a Maxwell Engine, a device that will be invented by Foundation personnel Dr. Liam Maxwell some time in 2018 or 2019, currently under development under the name "Project Backfire". The Maxwell Engine is designed to send payloads backwards in time in order to avert major containment breaches and other disasters related to the Foundation's mission.
The creators of the majority of SCP-3xxx instances are unknown, as are how they came to possess a Maxwell Engine. The targets of the attacks have largely been consistent— SCP-3xxx instances target companies, institutions and individuals working in scientific development. The nature of the targets has varied, but the most consistent target are entities working in particle physics and space travel. A partial log of entities and individuals that have fallen victim to SCP-3xxx is located below.
Designation: SCP-3xxx-01
Date of Attack: 09/15/1969
Target: Marrianne Sharpe-Maxwell an expecting mother in Florida
Description of Event: SCP-3xxx-01 is an ultrasonic bomb intended to forcibly induce labor in any pregnant woman that is within four meters. SCP-3xxx-01 was delivered to the Maxwell household in a plain brown package. Sharpe-Maxwell's child was not due for another month; despite being born prematurely, her son Liam was born without complications.
The package containing SCP-3xxx-01 also contained a document that reads as follows:
I am your son. I would be born in October 1969, but you would be dead. Proof:
In April of next year Apollo 13 will fail to land on the moon.
Nixon is impeached, Ford takes his place.
The Maxwell Engine works. More are coming. To detect it, find tachyonic flux with giger counter— registers as gamma radiation w/o cell damage.
Mrs. Sharpe-Maxwell was administered Amnestics and released.
Number of Casualties: 1
Number of Fatalities: 0
SCP-3xxx Status: Disassembled and reverse-engineered; SCP-3xxx-01 derivatives have been used to contain anomalies that interact with the human gestation cycle. SCP-3xxx-01 itself was considered an anomalous item prior to 1981; however, the ability to detect tachyonic fluctuations with giger counters has been well-documented.
Designation: SCP-3xxx-02
Date of Attack: 2/21/1981
Target: Parker Aeronautics, Dallas, Texas.
Description of Event: SCP-3xxx-02 manifested in the research wing of Parker Aeronautics at 2:21 PM CST. Security footage shows the object as resembling a large, oblong capsule. The Dallas Police Department was called in, fearing the object to be an explosive device. At exactly 2:55 PM, SCP-3xxx-02 detonated, releasing a flash of energy which turned all human matter within twenty meters into a white powder, later found to be individual carbon atoms.
Parker Aeronautics had previously been under Foundation monitoring for their research into terrestrial non-teleporting FTL travel. Following Foundation investigation, Parker Aeronautics's resources and research were acquired by the US Government under Eminent Domain.
To hide anomalous activity, several Foundation-made nail bombs were detonated alongside twenty-five cadavers to simulate a non-anomalous bomb blast. Publicly, the Parker Aeronautics incident was attributed to a copycat of the Unabomber, and the technological level of the attack was strongly downplayed.
Number of Casualties: 25
Number of Fatalities: 25
SCP-3xxx Status: In containment. SCP-3xxx-02 appears to have become inert following its detonation; the mechanisms used in it are being studied as part of Project Polyphemus. A survey of the Parker Aeronautics facility confirmed the presence of tachyon fluctuations, as well as a high amount of neutron radiation.
Designation: SCP-3xxx-03
Date of Attack: 5/09/1982
Target: Dr. Uto Lindholm, Particle Physicist, CERN Headquarters, Geneva, Switzerland
Description of Event: SCP-3xxx instance appeared on the passenger's seat of Dr. Lindholm's car in what was described as. It was described as a "misshapen package". Fearing a bomb, Dr. Lindholm's assistant went to alert CERN's security; however, Dr. Lindholm, upon exiting his car, vanished along with most of the front half of the vehicle and twenty centimeters of pavement below the vehicle.
Foundation investigation found the presence of tachyon fluctuations, and a large amount of Hawking radiation, suggesting the detonation was caused by a black hole. A vehicle matching Dr. Lindholm's, a false cadaver, and a C4 explosive were detonated to cover up the advanced technological state of the explosion.
Number of Casualties: 1
Number of Fatalities: 1
SCP-3xxx Status: Destroyed upon activation. The remains of Dr. Lindholm's car are held in Foundation custody for study.
Designation: SCP-3xxx-04
Date of Attack: 10/10/1983
Target: Alexi Czerna, General Secretary of Podlogistan
Description of Event; SCP-3xxx-04 is both the smallest and most numerous SCP-3xxx instance to date, manifesting in the form of over four-hundred small (5cm) syringe darts made of a form of glass that has shown resistance to temperatures in excess of 5000°K. Each SCP-3xxx-04 instance manifested simultaneously around Czerna and proceeded to inject themselves into him. While it is speculated that Czerna had died of the initial shock, this cannot be confirmed, due to the state of his body.
The compound that was present within SCP-3xxx-04, upon making contact with Czerna's bloodstream, caused a rapid expansion of tissues. Czerna's body ruptured starting at his left arm, and the ensuing explosion caused several dozen causalities besides.
Podlogistan was, and continues to be, an area of interest to the Foundation, due to the activity of Chaos Insurgency agents within its borders. Czerna was a noted ally to the Insurgency, and had intended to allow them to experiment on Podlogistan citizens within the town of Krysa; following his death, this plan became non-viable.
Czerna's death was covered up as a suicide bombing enacted by a member of the Podlogistan Liberation Front, a now-defunct terrorist organization.
Number of Casualties: 55
Number of Fatalities: 3
SCP-3xxx Status: All 451 needles recovered intact; ten were found to have embedded themselves in the floorboards beneath Czerna's body, still full of liquid. The compound found within the intact needles appears to be an undiscovered form of synthetic histamine; smaller doses injected into the skin produce severe allergic reactions.
SCP-3xxx Instance: SCP-3xxx-05
Date of Attackn: 12/15/1984
Target: Liam Maxwell, a fifteen-year-old male in Florida, United States; daughter of the target of SCP-3xxx-01.
Description of Event: SCP-3xxx-05 took the form of a non-anomalous, albeit advanced for the time, gas grenade. The gas output by SCP-3xxx-05 was engineered to specifically harm Liam Maxwell, or individuals who hypothetically share his exact DNA. The gas was not harmful to his parents, who discovered him upon being alerted by the gas. Maxwell himself had asphyxiated, but was revived, due to his father being trained in CPR.
Number of Casualties: 1
Number of Fatalities: 0
SCP-3xxx Status: Due to the low value of Maxwell as a target, and this being the second attack on his family in two decades, it is speculated that he was targeted for an event which has not yet occurred; as such, the Foundation is continuing to monitor his activities into the present day.
SCP-3xxx Instance: SCP-3xxx-05
Date of Attack: 1/19/1995
Target: Employees of Bosak Pharmaceuticals, Poland
Description of Event: A specific project at Bosak Pharmaceuticals was targeted— known as "Project Galaga", the intent was to research and develop drugs to aid in acclimation to long periods of time in a low-gravity, oxygen-limited environment.
At 5:22 CET, five key members of Project Galaga began to asphyxiate while driving, due to the appearance of SCP-3xxx-05 within their cars. SCP-3xxx-05 refers to five miniaturized devices resembling CO2 scrubbers, which are capable of removing or creating oxygen. At the point where the staff of Project Galaga would asphyxiate, the instances instead increased the oxygen content in their vehicles by 5000%, causing death through oxygen poisoning. One individual survived, due to shattering their windshield in a crash as they began to asphyxiate.
Project Galaga, while not discontinued, was set back by several years.
Number of Casualties: 5
Number of Fatalities: 4
SCP-3xxx Status: Three instances destroyed, the remaining two were successfully reverse-engineered by the Foundation. Derivatives of SCP-3xxx-05 are in use in several sub-aquatic Foundation sites.
SCP-3xxx Instance: SCP-3xxx-06
Date of Attack: 2/18/1999
Target: Offices of Dingo Search dot Com, an Australian search engine company.
Description of Event: SCP-3xxx-06 manifested in the main lobby of the Dingo Search dot Com building, taking the form of a car of unknown make and model; an inspection of the car revealed that its model year was 2350. It possessed eight wheels, and was apparently capable of bending around tight corners and locomotion in low-gravity environments.
SCP-3xxx-06 detonated with enough force to destroy the entirety of the Dingo Search dot Com building, causing seventy-one deaths; recovered shrapnel indicates that SCP-3xxx-06 ran on nuclear fusion, which fueled the detonation. Despite this, background radiation levels, apart from tachyon fluctuations, returned to normal less than three hours after the detonation.
Dingo Search was dissolved, along with four other companies which it held majority stake in. One such company, QuantumVoid, had reported success with teleportation experiments two months previously.
Number of Casualties: 71
Number of Fatalities: 71
SCP-3xxx Status: Completely destroyed. Attempts at reconstructing the shrapnel have met with little success; to date, it is unknown if SCP-3xxx-06 was even made for locomotion on Earth.
SCP-3xxx Instance: SCP-3xxx-07
Date of Attack: 6/19/2005
Target: Dr. Liam Maxwell, theoretical and particle physicist, part of DARPA Think Tank "Sigma".
Description of Event: The third attack targeting Dr. Maxwell after SCP-3xxx-01 and SCP-3xxx-05, SCP-3xxx-07 is identical to SCP-3xxx-05, including using a future version of the same canister, complete with a label placed on it by Foundation archivists. However, the gas released was intended not to asphyxiate, but to render unconscious. Dr. Maxwell was rendered comatose following exposure to SCP-3xxx-07.
In addition, SCP-3xxx-07 was modified to include a compact Foundation SOS beacon, leading Foundation agents to more easily recover it. Within SCP-3xxx-07, agents discovered a note with the chemical formula for an apparent counteragent written on it, along with the following note:
Still think I'm crazy, Thad? —Liam Maxwell, 2021
Number of Casualties: 1
Number of Fatalities: 0
SCP-3xxx Status: The canister is in storage, along with the previous SCP-3xxx instance used in the 1984 attack. Dr. Maxwell was roused from his coma, and made an offer to join the Foundation, due to his expertise in the fields of theoretical physics, particularly relating to temporal travel. He has since joined the Temporal Anomalies Department as a Level-3 researcher.
SCP-3xxx Instance: SCP-3xxx-08
Date: 04/04/2007
Target: BetterUs Research and Development Center, California
Description of Event: A series of crude C4 bombs appeared in the corridors of the BetterUs facility. Enough notice was given to allow for complete evacuation of the building. In the server room, an instance connected to a large electromagnet manifested; this magnet destroyed all data present on company servers.
BetterUs was dissolved within the next month, due to the loss of progress on a major research project intended to create staple crops that could aid in terraforming other planets.
Number of Casualties: 0
Number of Fatalities: 0
SCP-3xxx Status: Completely destroyed. Parts of the magnet were recovered, and the metal content was found to be Martian in origin, with no terrestrial iron present.
SCP-3xxx Instance: SCP-3xxx-09
Date of Attack: Between 11/15 and 11/20/2007
Target: Compound for the "De-Simulator" militia group, Oregon, United States.
Description of Events: The De-Simulators were a heavily anti-technology militia organization, believing the world was a simulation which was being perpetuated by modern digital technology, including computers, televisions, and cellular phones. Prior to this, the FBI received a tip that the De-Simulators were planning an attack on several technology stores throughout Portland, Oregon.
Upon arriving at the compound on 11/21/2007, FBI agents found all members of the militia dead from exposure to a series of non-anomalous chlorine bombs. Surveillance cameras that the De-Simulators had within the camp showed the devices being deposited into the camp by large, opaque holes, which then proceeded to collapse on themselves.
Number of Casualties: 25
Number of Fatalities: 25
SCP-3xxx Status: Destroyed due to health concerns. The area in which the De-Simulator camp was located was rendered uninhabitable for over a decade after, due to the sheer concentration of chlorine in the area.
SCP-3xxx Instance: SCP-3xxx-10
Date of Attack: 7/09/2010
Target: Dr. Blake Schafer, a professor emeritus of physics at the University of Michigan
Description of Event: Dr. Schafer was killed following the appearance of over one-hundred and fifty bullets in the doorway to his apartment. He was accompanied by his wife, who was struck in the leg by one of the bullets. Dr. Schafer had planned to publish a paper on the feasibility of accelerating or slowing time for a single individual without the use of FTL travel.
Publicly, Dr. Schafer's death is due to being shot by a robber using an SMG.
Number of Casualities: 2
Number of Fatalities: 1
SCP-3xxx Status: In containment; bullets are crude, and resemble musket shot circa 1780. However, in addition to the lead, the bullets contained high iridium content, suggesting a meteoric origin.
SCP-3xxx Instance: SCP-3xxx-Ω
Date of Attack: 12/15/2015
Target: Dr. Liam Maxwell, Level-3 Personnel, Department of Temporal Anomalies
Description of Events: Due to an oversight while upgrading Foundation operating systems, Dr. Maxwell was allowed access to actual file for SCP-3xxx for upwards of three hours. Upon reading the file, Dr. Maxwell used their clearance to begin the deletion process of all data related to the Maxwell Engine and Project Backfire, as well as retrieving and burning all physical copies of the paper on-site.
Security attempted to apprehend Maxwell and halt the deletion process, at which point this exchange occurred:
Dr. Maxwell: I know at least one of my future selves has been talked out of this, and I know they regret it.
Security: What do you believe that will accomplish?
Dr. Maxwell: They won't let me finish this conversation.
Upon stating this, Dr. Maxwell was killed vial blunt force trauma, due to what is believed to be the entirety of a disassembled, unusable Maxwell Engine appearing and being shot at him at over 90kph. No further SCP-3xxx instances have appeared following this incident.
Number of Casualties: 1
Number of Fatalities: 1
SCP-3xxx status: Destroyed and unusable. Attempts to reconstruct the Maxwell Engine have met with failure, due to the apparently non-euclidian nature of the Sharpe Portal, the main propulsion system for the engine. Dr. Maxwell's data was recovered from a backup, but Dr. Xyank has vetoed any attempts at re-construction.
Item #: SCP-3xxx
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-3xxx are to be kept in individual containers with foam padding made to fit each instance, to ensure that transportation cannot result in the accidental spinning of the instances. Currently, there are no plans to create new instances of SCP-3xxx.
Aoki Events may be initiated by two or more personnel within Site-29's High Impact Test Chamber. Proper testing procedure calls for two personnel to activate the SCP-3xxx instances by spinning them counter-clockwise, and proceeding to evacuate through the blast doors in a timely manner.
Description: SCP-3xxx-1 is a three-pronged aluminum 'fidget spinner' toy, patterned with stripes in black and a red-yellow gradient. The cap for the axle of SCP-3xxx-1 has stylized text in Katakana script, reading "Fidget WinnersTM"; no such entity has been found in any extant trademark database.
When spun in a direction the user perceives as counter-clockwise, SCP-3xxx-1 will become capable of levitation. Breaking physical contact with SCP-3xxx-1 will result in it orienting itself horizontally, and continue rotating at its original speed. During this time, it will produce SCP-3xxx-A1, a semi-solid holographic construct resembling a Smilodon fatalis with a mane of blue flames and striping in a pattern similar to the coloring on SCP-3xxx-1 itself. Contact with skin will cause SCP-3xxx-1 to cease motion and fall to the floor.
When spun in a direction the user perceives as clockwise, SCP-3xxx-1 will again suspend itself in mid-air, but along a vertical axis. During this time, information is projected onto SCP-3xxx in a manner similar to a statistics screen in a Japanese Role-Playing Video Game, displaying information such as SCP-3xxx-1's weight, maximum speed, and a statistic which simply reads "Fighting Spirit", which is listed as "Burning Smilodon".
Furthermore, any item that can be classified as a 'fidget spinner' toy that makes direct contact with SCP-3xxx-1 is transmogrified into an instance of SCP-3xxx. These additional instances possess anomalous properties identical to SCP-3xxx, but have variations on the statistics display based on design, composition, weight, etc. However, new SCP-3xxx instances do not carry the same transformative properties as SCP-3xxx-1.
Most instances of SCP-3xxx to date also have a unique "Fighting Spirit". If at least two SCP-3xxx instances are spun counter-clockwise, an Aoki Event will occur.
Aoki Events are characterized by two or more SCP-3xxx-A instances engaging in combat with one another. During this event, SCP-3xxx instances will proceed towards the highest point in the area (up to 20m in outdoor areas) and attempt to collide with each other. These collisions are represented by physical combat that takes place between SCP-3xxx-A instances. SCP-3xxx instances are unaffected by normal gravity for the duration of Aoki events. The apparent win condition of an Aoki event is knocking all other SCP-3xxx instances to the ground and immobilizing them. Following the conclusion of an Aoki event, SCP-3xxx instances will return to their base state.
Discovery: SCP-3xxx was discovered following its confiscation from a student at █████ Middle School in Bangor, Maine. It was placed in a bin of confiscated objects, along with several other fidget spinners previously confiscated, transfiguring all it made contact with into SCP-3xxx instances.
At the end of the 2016-2017 school year, when all confiscated materials were returned, at least three individuals independently spun their SCP-3xxx instance counter-clockwise, resulting in a large Aoki event. Due to the semi-solid nature of the entities, and the force of the attacks (mainly in form of large pockets of high air pressure), over $200,000 in damage was done to the building. A transcript of security camera footage documenting the Aoki Event is available below; for the purposes of clarity, all SCP-3xxx-A instances are referred to by the designations given to them on their statistics board.
2:39:15 PM: Kyle Ballard, Age 13, is seen spinning SCP-3xxx-1, before inadvertently letting go as another unidentified student collides with their shoulder. It hovers in midair, unnoticed by Ballard, as he proceeds to berate the student who collided with him.
2:39:27 PM: In the cafeteria, another student, Michelle Fletcher, puts down their SCP-3xxx instance after spinning it counter-clockwise. It proceeds to hover in midair, before an instance of SCP-3xxx-A ("Congo Cerebus") resembling a three-headed gorilla appears underneath, and grows to reach the ceiling (approx. 10m high). The table it was laid on buckles under its weight, and Fletcher and several other students run out of the room.
2:39:31 PM: Ballard's SCP-3xxx instance flies around him in a figure-8 pattern, before it manifests its own SCP-3xxx-A instance ("Burning Smilodon"), a Smilodon fatalis with a mane made of blue fire. It roars, before proceeding to run in the direction of the cafeteria.
2:40:02 PM: Dr. Craig Ward, Ballard's homeroom teacher and original confiscator of SCP-3xxx, idly spins a two-pronged fidget spinner, before abruptly sneezing and having it fall out of their hand. It hovers in mid-air, and an SCP-3xxx-A instance ("Queen Aranae") in the form of a twenty-limbed spider-like creature appears, running from the room with the SCP-3xxx instance in tow.
2:41:00 PM: Queen Aranae runs down the chemistry hallway at high speeds; the air pressure wave created by its running shatters the fume hoods within labs 1 and 3, and leaves a large crack in the hood of lab 2. A fourth SCP-3xxx-A instance ("Centurion Remus") in the form of a Roman centurion with the head of a large wolf appears and engages in combat with Queen Aranae, resulting in damage to several rows of lockers. The origin of Centurion Remus is unclear; SCP-3xxx-4, when recovered, was found to have been soaked in water that was identified to be from the toilet of the men's restroom.
2:41:09 PM: Several tables in the cafeteria are buckled and broken by the arrival of Burning Smilodon, which grows to match the size of Congo Cerebus. Burning Smilodon pounces on Congo Cerebus, causing both SCP-3xxx instances to come into view of the cameras. They proceed to collide repeatedly, shooting sparks from the collisions.
2:43:05 PM: After several minutes of battling, the sparking from the two battling SCP-3xxx instances ignites leftover cooking oil in one of the warming trays for cafeteria food, causing a fire to break out. At this point, the fire alarm is triggered, and evacuation starts.
2:45:29 PM: Burning Smilodon subdues Congo Cerebus. Burning Smilodon roars, causing several lights overhead to spark and shatter. Both instances fall to the ground, inert, as a cafeteria worker sprays the oil fire with a fire extinguisher.
3:00:29 PM: Queen Aranae and Centurion Remus's battle spills out into the parking lot of the school, where all school personnel have evacuated. Centurion is seen impaling Queen Aranae on the school's flagpole, which causes it to buckle in half, before both instances are rendered inert. One SCP-3xxx instance lands on the head of an instructor, causing them to fall unconscious.
3:10:02: Foundation containment personnel arrive on-scene and begin reviewing video logs.
Addendum: "Evolution" of SCP-3xxx-A Instances: During the fifteenth test of combat between SCP-3xxx-A1 and SCP-3xxx-A4, the Burning Smilodon entity underwent a change in appearance following its victory. SCP-3xxx-A1 now has longer fangs, a larger mane, and an overall larger body structure compared to the original appearance.
Furthermore, testing of SCP-3xxx-A1 now shows that it has had a significant increase in the maximum speed at which it can be rotated, and weighs less than it did upon containment; these changes are reflected in the statistics screen, as is the change of SCP-3xxx-A1, which is now referred to as "Coronal Machairodont10." SCP-3xxx-A1 has been observed winning contests more consistently; it is unknown if other SCP-3xxx-A instances are capable of this evolution.
Item #: SCP-3xxx
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3xxx is to be kept in a climate-controlled coffin in Reliquary Site-25. Due to ethical concerns, no testing is to be carried out using SCP-3xxx; results of previous tests, and all material recovered with SCP-3xxx, are available for the perusal of all members of site personnel.
While SCP-3xxx does not constitute a known biohazard unless consumed, individuals working in the biomass storage wing of Reliquary Site-25 are to undergo regular nutritional health screenings, and are subject to random monitoring of their caloric intake over a 72 hour period.
Description: SCP-3xxx refers to the remains of a human male of French descent who died circa 1798. Upon containment, SCP-3xxx's left leg was missing, believed to have been separated from their cadaver and consumed some time between 1800 and 1815.
SCP-3xxx shows incredible amounts of deformation in the abdominal cavity and mandibles, suggesting that several organs and pieces of tissue were displaced or deformed in life. Records from 1798 indicate that in life, SCP-3xxx had a massively deformed digestive tract to the point that the stomach could be viewed through the esophagus— though no exact measurements were taken at the time, modern estimates are that SCP-3xxx's stomach was approximately seven times the size of an average human's.
SCP-3XXX's anomalous properties manifest when an individual prepares part of the remains as a meal intended for human consumption; in its current state, the most viable way to prepare a meal from SCP-3xxx is as ingredients for a broth. Individuals who consume this meal show signs of a unique severe compulsive eating disorder, dubbed by DeWeese, LaPerle, et al as "Gastromania Universalis".
Individuals who suffer from Gastromania Universalis report an intense hunger, and will attempt to consume any material that can be fit into their mouths, edible or inedible. Subjects appear to have a slightly increased metabolic rate as a result of massive, forced caloric intake, often consuming in excess of 100,000kcal per day of edible material, and several cubic meters of inedible material. As a result, extreme physiological changes will occur.
- The facial cheeks of the subjects will greatly distend to the point where each cheek is capable of holding approximately 3L3 of matter.
- The stomach and esophagus will greatly distend as a result of the sheer volume of matter consumed; as an indirect result, some inedible materials may settle in the stomach and act as gastroliths, even if non-mineral in nature. Observed gastrolithic materials have included shards of bone, metals that do not fully dissolve in the gastric acid, various bezoars of hair, fur and fingernails, undigested plastic, and in one case, dissolved silicon from the consumption of several cell phones.
- The subject's lower abdomen will distend greatly, but will not retain mass, and instead result in large flaps of skin hanging off of their torso; testing has shown that some intestinal matter will have distended into these flaps.
- Gastric acid present in the stomach will decrease in average pH from 1.5-3.5 to approximately 1.0-1.5 due to the consumption of inedible, possibly toxic materials. While still in relatively normal range for stomach acid, subjects will suffer from severe, albeit treatable, acid reflux. As a result of the decrease in pH and the subsequent reflux, the subject will start emitting a foul, acidic odor from their nose and mouth.
Several studies over the course of ten years have determined that the physical symptoms of Gastromania Universalis is not inherently anomalous, and have the potential to manifest, albeit in less extreme forms, in individuals with non-anomalous binge eating disorders.
SCP-3xxx was discovered following the discovery of several malformed corpses dated to the early 1800s embedded in the walls of a house in Versailles, France. Originally treated as an archaeological curiosity, one of the individuals interred was found to have apparently swallowed a box of yew wood containing a solid gold fork, several metacarpals and metatarsals that are believed to have belonged to at least two six-month-old infants, a piece of bone that has since been identified as being part of SCP-3xxx's left ankle, and a small, leather book with writing by an "M. Duveaux", last dated to 1815. The contents of this book are reproduced below, fully translated.
The box itself was covered in intricate carvings depicting an unknown being with the head of an unknown, unnamed entity with the head of a rodent, portrayed in the style of murals dating to the Middle Kingdom of Egypt. This entity, referred to as "Ipenewat" in the text of the journal, is shown consuming several corpses and leaving behind individuals whose appearance is consistent with deformations resultant from Gastromania Universalis.
Furthermore, the box was found to have large amounts of hemlock oil soaked into the wood— while mostly evaporated, the amount present upon the box when it was originally consumed would have proved fatal within less than three hours.

The Journal of M. Duveaux
The incarnation is dead. His carcass reeked to high hell when they finally took him out of the hospital— they thought to burn him, but I convinced them to allow us to take it for examination. It was magnificent— his flesh was almost melting off of him, but some drying in natron and draining the liquids cured his body of that. We fed his juices to the curs on the street, and they seem unaffected.
The rites call for first making the body itself fallow and barren, and letting the basest of creatures consume its seed— what is more base than a human? We are but leeches on the back of the world, and the world shall feed on us again. We were born from rat shit, and to rat shit we shall return. We are the food of Ipenewat.
C. will have the honor of making the incarnation barren— I envy her in this regard. I've only tasted the berries once, and the thought of chewing on them again makes me weak.
C. has fulfilled the second part of the rites— she has eaten of the incarnation, and from this, has gained some of its hunger. The cat two houses down fled, no doubt sensing her voracious intent. More mice for C.
She brought a guest for the dinner proper, a drunkard who was convinced she was a common harlot. The alcohol made his liver unpalatable, and it dulled his pain enough that he did not even scream when L. plunged his hand in and drew out his kidneys. A shame, but he did not go to waste— we laid his largely empty carcass in the body of the incarnation, great and wide it is. The prayer was spoken, and L. fulfilled the rite of the sinister foot. I heard him crunch into his dried skin, like a snail's shell being crushed in my teeth. I couldn't help but grin. Now, every step he takes, the world trembles with the force of a thousand black hooves.
C. has given into the ecstasy of the hunger. I had to restrain the poor girl after she ate all of the raw grain, and tried amputating her hand. A few pints of cattle blood sated her for the day, and still she sobbed, begging for more to sate her hunger. Ipenewat has laid in her bed, and rests in her womb. Perhaps the incarnation will be reborn from her loins.
She's eaten the leather on one of her straps. I applied a laxative immediately— we cannot have tainted, treated flesh within her bowels, lest Famine frown upon us. The parlor stinks. I've been burning incense for six hours.
D. and M. scattered salt on a dozen fields on their way down from Paris, marking the sacred shape, the ever-gaping maw. Even now, I hear whispers of men being found with their legs bitten off, trying to clear the sacred salt. It is a shame that M.'s second stomach is causing him such pain— he won't be able to properly partake in the ritual until October, at the very least.
Still, they did bring gifts— M. brought along three barrels of lamb's blood, one of which was half-empty. He convinced to partaking, the old drunk. As penance, he let the rest of his portions be fed to Ipenewat's messengers.
C. meanwhile was visited by Ipenewat in the night— I awoke to find her covered in bites from his children, his rats. She had pieces of rat flesh from her mouth, a true blessing. They are allowing her to consume them, a sure sign the ritual is working. One even crawled into her mouth, head-first, as I observed. There is something satisfying about the crunch of bone and the taste of brain that I cannot even begin to comprehend— the wasted meat is the sweetest.
I learned today that, in his life, the incarnation ate at least two human whelps. Awful, horrible, disgusting. A waste of potential life and livestock— one does not kill a newborn lamb, one waits for it to grow and then slaughters it for its sweetest meats.
The drunkard's body has had time to settle in the body of the incarnation. The recipe that D. came up with for the ritual is a variation on the original, but it should retain its sanctity— take the skin of the drunkard and wrap it around what remains of the sinister leg, then break it off and bake it in the dried skin. The rest of the drunkard's meat will not go to waste; C's birthday is soon, and she has often complimented me on my roasts. The hunger has been driving her to chew at her own flesh, and while I am grateful to Ipenewat for his bounty, she cannot live on your children alone.
I almost killed D. He broke all of our spice jars. Nothing irreplaceable, but it will take days to re-sanctify it all, and I took some of his blood for this particular rite. Not all of it, but enough that he couldn't walk. M. has ducked out to get new spices.
Prayer for the Meal
Ipenewat, grant us salvation from consumption eternal. As our bodies are consumed, our shadow cannot be cast, our heart has no seat, our name is lost, and our five-part soul is destroyed. Your incarnations of hunger grant us the ability to consume all, and in doing so, ensure their freedom from the gullets of the gods.
M. took far too long with the spices. They are sanctified, and I gave some of my meal to C, who was on the verge of eating her own tongue. She had already chewed part of it off.
I feel ill.
Laxative in the food
They cut C.'s throat. Even as she screams, they are interring her in stone. I do not know them— they do not wear any flag I recognize, but their skin might be Grecian. M. is among them, clutching a pouch that jingles with the sound of coins.
The hunger has taken me enough that I can spare myself C and D's fate. I have enough hemlock in my abode to poison all of France. They dare not destroy a relic such as the incarnation's corpse. May others continue the work of Ipenewat the Ravenous.
Passage 1
Duveaux begins by describing the death of an individual known as the "Incarnation", evidently SCP-3xxx, and how they saved the corpse from being burned, preserving it in natron and draining it of its juices— a diagram found on the box containing the journal indicates that they were using techniques similar to Egyptian mummification circa 1850 BCE. Duveaux compares himself, and humanity in general, to base creatures, leeches on the back of the world. The name "Ipenewat" appears for the first time.
An individual known as "C" is stated to make the incarnation "barren" by consuming a body part; due to language used describing this part, it can be assumed that "C" consumed the gametes of SCP-3xxx. Animals are described as fleeing from the area following this, which Duveaux attributes to them being able to sense the hunger emanating from "C".
Passage 2
This part of the journal describes the sacrifice and partial consumption of an inebriated individual by a cultist referred to as "L", who does not reappear in the journal. Following the consumption, the body is placed within SCP-3xxx to further the process of meal preparation. L is described as performing the "Rite of the Sinister Foot". While not elaborated upon, this may instead be the be the "rite of the left foot"— the dialect of French used here is antiquated, and does not appear to differentiate between the concepts of "sinistre" as being both the direction left and being an adjective denoting an ill omen. L. is described as having an ominous, intimidating presence about him following this.
Passage 3
C. begins showing signs of Gastromania Universalis, which Duveaux refers to as the "Ecstasy of Hunger". After eating raw grain and attempting to amputate her hand, Duveaux restrained her, and describes the figure of Ipenewat as having lain with C.
Immediately after, Duveaux describes having to administer a laxative to C. following her consumption of a leather strap, presumably restraining her. He describes the leather as 'tainted and treated', and that the parlor 'stinks' because of her.
Passage 4
Two new individuals, "D" and "M", are introduced, having been described as salting fields in a particular shape on their way from Paris to Versailles; contemporary accounts show that several fields were salted or otherwise destroyed by an unknown party or parties from 1803 to 1809. Maps of the fields show now known occult pattern emerging among the plots, suggesting the symbols were on a smaller scale. M. is described as having a 'second stomach'.
D and M brought barrels of lamb's blood as a gift, one of which was half-consumed by M, whom Duveaux refers to as an "old drunk".
C. is described as being visited by Ipenwat in the night, with several rats crawling on her and seemingly feeding themselves to her, one of them crawling in head-first before being consumed. Of note, Duveaux refers to the meat of the brain as 'wasted meat', which corresponds with an Ancient Egyptian belief that the brain was essentially useless, both anatomically and spiritually, and was thrown away during mummification.
Passage 5
Duveaux writes about SCP-3xxx with disgust after learning that, in life, they had consumed at least two infants. He talks about it being a 'waste of potential life and livestock'.
The drunkard's body from passage two is referenced, apparently having had enough time to prepare. Details about the preparation of the actual meal are discussed, and how the "Sinister Leg" is to be consumed first. Some of the drunkard is intended to be saved for C.'s birthday, where it will be served as a roast. C. herself has apparently eaten several rats, but cannot live on "[Ipenewat's] children alone".
Duveaux expresses rage at D. for breaking several spice jars, which were apparently sanctified. M. goes to retrieve new spices, while Duveaux bemoans how long the ritual to re-sanctify the spices will take.
Passage 6:
A prayer to Ipenewat, which has been reproduced below:
Ipenewat, grant us salvation from consumption eternal. As our bodies are consumed, our shadow cannot be cast, our heart has no seat, our name is lost, and our five-part soul is destroyed. Your incarnations of hunger grant us the ability to consume all, and in doing so, ensure their freedom from the gullets of the gods.
Passages 7-9:
Duveaux describes how M. returned with the spices, after taking an inordinately long amount of time. C. is described as having chewed off part of her own tongue.
Following this, Duveaux complains of feeling ill— the parts of SCP-3xxx which were consumed were laced with a laxative. The last entry describes how Duveaux has seen C. having her throat cut by an unknown group of individuals, apparently Greek in origin, having worked with D. in order to eliminate the cult. C., M., and Duveaux are apparently due to be interred in stone. Duveaux states his intent to commit suicide by ingestion of hemlock, and says that the organization "dare not destroy a relic" such as SCP-3xxx. The last line is "May others continue the work of Ipenewat the Ravenous".
Nexus #: Nx-249
Civilian Designation: Apartment 8I, 21 ████ St, New York, New York
Population: 2 Foundation personnel, unknown civilian population
Area Class: Camelot
Nexus Interaction Protocol: [Paragraphs explaining special requirements for personnel working in the Nexus]
Containment Facility: [Optional Site/Area dedicated to containment and monitoring]
Description: Nx-249 refers to the entirety of Apartment 8I, including its kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms. Originally a non-anomalous luxury apartment in uptown Manhattan, Nx-249's anomalous properties were first noted after the disappearance of the sole tenant, listed as 'Neil Drake' on all paperwork associated with Nx-249.
When the front door of Nx-249 is closed, the interior dimensions alter themselves drastically. The exterior wall, which faces south-east, vanishes and opens into a large beach. Soil and water analysis, along with exploration attempts, has concluded that this beach is either Siesta Beach, located in Sarasota, Florida, or a near-perfect approximation of the beach. The temperature has never been recorded to drop below 21C or go above 25C.
Addendum: [Optional additional paragraphs]
Item #: SCP-SAD-J
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-SAD-J is an enormous blue fleece blanket, previously owned by Foundation researcher Carlos Mewart. Prior to Mewart's retirement from the Foundation in 2016, SCP-SAD-J was non-anomalous, and measured 3m*.5m; following Mewart's retirement, it expanded to have a total surface area of 2km. Furthermore, since it's anomalous properties manifested, SCP-SAD-J has been totally saturated by human tears.
Items exposed to SCP-SAD-J will undergo various changes in state to make their overall disposition more depressed and nihilistic. In the case of most mammalian, reptilian and avian organisms, mood will worsen significantly within thirty meters of SCP-SAD-J, with subjects often bursting into tears within twenty meters. Further coaxing is needed to enter within ten meters, at which point subjects will often lay down and remain sedentary until acted upon by an outside force. Living organisms which exit SCP-SAD-J's zone of effect typically recover upon exposure to positive stimulus.
SCP-SAD-J's anomaly works through an unknown mechanism; due to its ability to affect all forms of plant, animal, and fungal life, it was originally believed to be a form of organic toxin. However, due to its ability to alter other items, such as books, artwork, and in one case, a washing machine, it is believed that SCP-SAD-J is an actively essohazardous item. Thankfully, SCP-SAD-J's area of effect does not extend beyond thirty meters, and has not grown since its containment was established.
Exposed Material: Dr. Rouge Chemise, Archeologist stationed at Site-87
Result: Dr. Chemise was exposed accidentally while touring the area. A five-second period of exposure caused a massive shift in psychology, resulting in her requesting a transfer to Site-2; this site does not exist.
Item #: SCP-3xxx
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-3xxx refers to an anomalous explosive device.
Item #: SCP-3xxx
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3xxx's right hand is to be enclosed in a cloth glove at all times to prevent its anomaly from activating. [more stuff goes here when I'm done rewriting it]
Description: SCP-3xxx is a female human of Navajo-German descent, aged 29. SCP-3xxx weighs 70kg and stands at 1.57m when not being affected by its anomalous properties. SCP-3xxx possesses brown eyes and black hair, and has an incomplete tattoo depicting events from The Coming of Monsters from the Diné Bahaneʼ11 on its back. The fingertips and palm of SCP-3xxx's right hand show signs of several needle marks, which SCP-3xxx cannot account for.
SCP-3xxx's anomalous properties manifest when its right extremity on its forelimb makes physical contact with the skin, hide, fur, feathers or exoskeleton of any organism from the kingdom Animalia. Following this, SCP-3xxx begins to transform into a genetically identical copy of the organism which it came into contact with; this process has been observed to last from between ten seconds to six minutes. This process has been described as "excruciatingly painful" by SCP-3xxx, with pain intensifying as differences in size become more extreme. SCP-3xxx will undergo this transformation regardless of the state of biological matter it comes into contact with; contact with a live specimen of cattle will produce the same reaction as contact with leather. However, non-living human matter (such as shed skin cells and corpses) will not trigger the anomaly.
SCP-3xxx's intelligence and degree of sapience fluctuates from organism to organism, but SCP-3xxx is capable of remembering what occurred during times when it has transformed, provided the organism has a brain. SCP-3xxx appears to be unfamiliar with the bodies of organisms it changes into, and often injures itself. Winged organisms appear to give SCP-3xxx the most difficulty in adjustment, as to date, SCP-3xxx has been unable to stay airborne for more than several seconds, invariably colliding with walls or falling from the air due to exhaustion.
Sufficient physical trauma, such as a gunshot wound, will result in SCP-3xxx reverting to their original form. Furthermore, SCP-3xxx has displayed an acute allergy to silver, breaking out in severe hives upon contact, and often experiencing spontaneous dermal hemorrhaging.
Recovery: SCP-3xxx was originally reported missing from its reservation in late 2011, following a series of deaths in the area attributed to animal attacks. Foundation investigation found that the attacks were caused by large animals such as wolves and coyotes, but with human footprints left behind in several cases. These attacks stopped following SCP-3xxx's disappearance.
SCP-3xxx was recovered in the spring of 2012, having been shot by a farmer; during this time, SCP-3xxx had turned into a coyote, and was scavenging on a dead chicken. Foundation medical teams intercepted SCP-3xxx at its hospital, where its anomalous properties manifested upon a nurse checking its right hand, causing its anomaly to activate.
SCP-3xxx was moved to Site-82, where it was interviewed by Dr. Douglas Smith. For the duration of this, SCP-3xxx's hands were covered and restrained.
SCP-3xxx: You can't hold me here. I've not been charged with anything.
Dr. Smith: We're not holding you on a criminal basis. We're… well, we want to know what you are. How you do this.
SCP-3xxx: So you can make your own yee naaldlooshii?12 Fuck you, and your government.
Dr. Smith: My government? I'm Lakota by descent.
SCP-3xxx: You still work for the US Gov. Where am I, anyway? Some MIB facility? Is Agent Jay gonna walk through the door and give sunburn to my brain?
Dr. Smith: We don't work with the US Government, or any government. We're… extragovernmental. We study individuals such as yourself, with abilities that are beyond that of normality.
[SCP-3xxx remains silent]
Dr. Smith: Your file shows your name is Kai. Is it all right if I call you that?[SCP-3xxx nods]
Dr. Smith: In the preliminary examination, several track marks were reported to be present on your hand—
SCP-3xxx: I'm not a junkie.
Dr. Smith: I wasn't going to accuse you of that.
SCP-3xxx: Then why call them track marks? Why not needle marks? [SCP-3xxx shifts in its seat uncomfortably] I keep on having… I had blank patches for months on end. I'd come home from work, and the next thing I'd know, it'd be morning and I'd passed out on the couch, and there would be a new bandage on my hand.
Dr. Smith: You worked on a ranch, yes?
SCP-3xxx: My grandfather owned it at one point— my mom's dad. We don't like to talk about him. We're just hired there to help, now. It's a living.
Dr. Smith: Did you contact the authorities about the injuries you received?
SCP-3xxx: And what would they do? If it was someone non-native, they can't be arrested or tried on the reservation.13 And I'm not sure if you've noticed, but short of the goddamn Zodiac killer showing up in the Nation, the only reason a fed is going to step onto our land is to burn their wallet while playing craps.
Dr. Smith: Point taken. I… think that'll be all for today. You'll be shown to your room.
SCP-3xxx: All right.
Addendum: 3xxx Testing Footage Transcripts:
Test 3xxx-01:
Dr. Smith: All right, I want you to approach the center of the room.
SCP-3xxx: So, this is the part where you try to turn me into a weapon?
Dr. Smith: We simply want to see the limits of your…
SCP-3xxx: Let's call it what it it. A curse.
Dr. Smith: If you prefer that. Now, before you is the pelt of an animal that's fairly close to your size; an African leopard.
SCP-3xxx: How did it die?
Dr. Smith: In a zoo. It was old, poor thing.
SCP-3xxx: Okay. Uh. It works when I do it with this hand [SCP-3xxx holds up its right hand] but if I don't use that, it… doesn't do anything.
Dr. Smith: Use your right hand, please.
SCP-3xxx: Okay. [SCP-3xxx places its hand on the pelt; a flash of light is seen emitting from its fingertips, visible only on slowed-down playbacks] FUCK! Goddamn son of a fucking bitch piece of [SCP-3xxx's voice turns into incoherent snarling and growling throughout the course of its transformation. SCP-3xxx then proceeds to attack the observation glass, severely scratching it with its claws]
Dr. Smith: Holy cow.
[SCP-3xxx ceases its attack on the glass, emitting sounds of fear and distress. SCP-3xxx eventually calms.]
[One hour into the test, twenty kilograms of beef are introduced into SCP-3xxx's enclosure. It attempts to consume the beef, but it shows some difficulty doing so.]
Dr. Smith: I… Can someone go in there and try to chop it up for her? Please? I'm sorry, Kai. We're going to keep observing until you change back, however long that takes.
[EXTRANEOUS LOGS REMOVED]
[SCP-3xxx begins reverting after five hours and forty-two minutes. Upon reverting fully, SCP-3xxx sits in the middle of the chamber, curled up in a fetal position]
Dr. Smith: Welcome back, Kai. Take your time.
SCP-3xxx: Did I kill someone?
Dr. Smith: Beg pardon?
SCP-3xxx: I… I remember having a mind like that. Hungry, wanting to hunt, but just locked in a room. Then, someone let me out, and [SCP-3xxx pauses] I woke up at home, in the living room, with blood on my gums. There were attacks on the reservation. They started after I [SCP-3xxx's voice becomes shaken] after I started finding needle marks on me. D-did I… why did I? Why did I kill them?
Dr. Smith: You weren't in control. You can't blame yourself, Kai.
SCP-3xxx: Why would someone do this to me? Why?
Dr. Smith: I promise you, we're looking into it. [Dr. Smith sighs] When you're ready, we'll have someone escort you to your room. Okay?
SCP-3xxx: O-okay.
Incident 3xxx-21: Following a test determining SCP-3xxx's interaction with winged organisms, SCP-3xxx developed a severe rash on their left hand, which soon began hemorrhaging. The cause of this was unknown, and the wound failed to close, and did not begin healing until three days later. Review of footage shows SCP-3xxx's hand coming into contact with that of Security Agent McEwan as they escorted SCP-3xxx to its cell following the test; McEwan was wearing their silver wedding band at the time. A follow-up test of a skin sample collected from SCP-3xxx shows that silver has deleterious effects on its tissue. When presented with this information, SCP-3xxx gave this statement:
SCP-3xxx: Silver? Like I'm some kind of werewolf?
Dr. Smith: I'm not sure I'd use that term. It appears to be a severe allergy to the element.
SCP-3xxx: That doesn't make sense. My mom, she had this silver amulet that dad gave her, she always wore it, and I used to wear it, too, even after I started changing. How am I suddenly allergic to it?
Dr. Smith: I agree that it seems incongruous… we've looked into your genealogy. Your maternal grandfather, he hailed from Germany?
SCP-3xxx: His family had been in America for generations before that. We were from around… I think Stuttgart?
Dr. Smith: And your mother's side, they're all Navajo?
SCP-3xxx: As far back as can be traced. Why the sudden interest in history?
Dr. Smith: It's occurred to me that both Germanic folklore and the Navajo's mythos have creatures that can take on the form of animals. The yee naaldlooshii and the werewolf. What was done to you, it was… well, in a sick way, it brought your heritage to the forefront.
SCP-3xxx: Oh my god. [SCP-3xxx stares at its hand] So, whatever this was that got stuck into me, it, what, made me into some fucked-up Animorph because it's in my mythology? [SCP-3xxx stares at the wall of the interview room] How would that even work?
Dr. Smith: We're not sure.
SCP-3xxx: Why did they stop?
Dr. Smith: That… hmm. [Dr. Smith rests his hand on his chin.] They could have continued indefinitely, with the relative isolation. During the attacks, the victims… [Dr. Smith frowns] How well did you know the individuals on your reservation?
SCP-3xxx: I attended the funerals for everyone killed by… by me. [SCP-3xxx puts its head in its hand] Oh my god.
Dr. Smith: Wait here. [Dr. Smith exits the room for several minutes, eventually re-entering with photographs of all of the individuals killed at SCP-3xxx's reservation prior to its containment] All right. Does anyone here look out of place?
SCP-3xxx: Her. [SCP-3xxx indicates a photograph of a Caucasian woman, aged forty, identified as Lena Goldsmith] I've never seen her before. Who was she?
Dr. Smith: Records indicate that she was a teacher on your reservation—
SCP-3xxx: No. I've never seen her before in my life. If she was a teacher, then half the school would have shown up to mourn her. [SCP-3xxx frowns] We just showed up at her funeral because it was right. She's not even buried on the reservation, I don't think; it was more of a memorial.
Dr. Smith: We'll look into it.
Addendum: POI-3xxx-01: POI-3xxx-01 refers to a deceased individual under the presumed alias of Lena Goldsmith; Foundation search of their former property found several samples of animal pelt, and a memory card for a digital camera. The data on the camera shows heavy corruption, but three images were recovered; two of them show SCP-3xxx in stages of transformation, while the third is a photograph of a hand with needle marks in positions similar to those displayed on SCP-3xxx. The hand does not belong to SCP-3xxx.
Further search found several fragments of burnt paper in an incinerator behind the house, as well as melted plastic used in medical syringes. Due to the lack of any anomalous chemical residue in the POI's dewlling, it is presumed that the substance in the syringe (tentatively classified as SCP-3xxx-Alpha) was created elsewhere, and then delivered to the POI. Investigation into POI-3xxx-01's motives and connections are ongoing.
Item #: SCP-3xxx
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-3xxx refers to the unreleased video game Swordquest: Airworld. SCP-3xxx was originally intended for release in Late 1984 or Early 1985 for the Atari 2600 game console, but due to financial difficulties encountered by Atari at the time, and the anomalous nature of the game, it was scrapped.
The activation of SCP-3xxx's anomaly has a co-requisite; in order for it to activate, one must play SCP-3xxx with the intent of participating in the promotional contest which accompanied the Swordquest series.14 'Participation' means playing the game whilst attempting to decode messages in the accompanying Swordquest: Airworld comic magazine and other paraphernalia, including a piece of polarized plastic intended for finding messages in the comic book (referred to as a 'magic lens'), a simplified summary of the I Ching, and a plastic decoder wheel styled after a Taijitu15. Intent of winning the Swordquest contest does not appear to have any additional effect.
When played with these requirements met, SCP-3xxx will gradually reveal details about
Item #: SCP-3XXX
Object Class: Neutralized
Special Containment Procedures: Due to ethical concerns regarding SCP-3xxx, all human tissue has been rendered biologically inert. The biological remains of all individuals with extant family members is to be cremated along with other human biomass and distributed to their families for burial on a set timetable.
Description: SCP-3xxx refers collectively refers to twenty-nine human brains(SCP-3xxx-1 through -29), fifteen sets of human larynges(SCP-3xxx-30 through -44), an advanced life support system(SCP-3xxx-45), and a server farm(SCP-3xxx-46) formerly located in [REDACTED], New York. SCP-3xxx-1 through -29 were all living and conscious at the time of discovery, being kept alive via a blood-like nutrient-rich substance based on human blood, supported in twenty-nine distinct tanks. Three additional tanks were found emptied of their contents.
SCP-3xxx-30 through -44 were stored separately from the life support system, with artificial nerve tissue connecting from the brains to the vocal chords; to communicate, the larynges were shared between brains, with only SCP-3xxx-21 possessing a larynx to itself. In turn, the larynges were electronically linked to the server farm, which was programmed to call a randomly generated phone number within the United States every 33 hours. The suspected purpose of SCP-3xxx's organic components was to mimic the vocal patterns of a healthy human female according to a script provided by the server in an attempt to fraudulently acquire social security information, credit card data, and other credentials necessary for carrying out identity theft. All conversations made with civilians by SCP-3xxx is recorded; analysis shows that out of 1,982 calls, only 103 were successful in their intent. Communication with SCP-3xxx-18 upon discovery indicates that they were forced to speak the call script in a tone mimicing "robocalls", and had no control over their larynges or thought processes during this time.
All human tissue in SCP-3xxx is from females, aged twenty-one to thirty-three; however, no DNA sampled from the vocal chords matches DNA sampled from the brains. Forty-four distinct genetic signatures exist, with fourteen being unaccounted for.
Discovery: SCP-3xxx was discovered following a phone call made to a Mr. Gregory Wright in Bar Harbor, Maine by SCP-3xxx. Due to SCP-3xxx recording all call data, this transcript was obtained off of the server.
Mr. Wright: Yello?
SCP-3xxx-18: Hello?
Mr. Wright: Can you hear me? Hello?
SCP-3xxx-18: Oh! Sorry, I was just adjusting my headset—
Mr. Wright: Ahh, nope. Goddamn robocalls. I don't want whatever the fuck it is you're selling—
SCP-3xxx-18: Help me.
Mr. Wright: …what?
SCP-3xxx-18: I don't know where I am. It's cold and dark. I can't see anything. I can only hear you and me. Help me. Please.
Mr. Wright: Is this some kind of sick joke? Who the fuck are you?
SCP-3xxx-18: I don't know where I am! Please! My name is Juliet Monroe, I'm Twenty-One, I can't see, I can't feel my hands, oh god, what the fuck [SCP-3xxx-18 becomes incoherent and starts sobbing].
Mr. Wright: Holy Shit. Uh…. I'm going to get on my cell phone and call the police. Y-you stay on the line, okay, Juliet? [Distant] Mary!16 Whatever you do, don't hang up that phone!
[SCP-3xxx-18's sobbing continues for approximately ten minutes, before a click is heard on the recording, indicating an exterior wire tap. Approximately three minutes later, a new voice is heard on the recording.]
Officer Bowman: This is Officer Bowman with the Bar Harbor Police. To whom am I speaking?
SCP-3xxx-18: J-Juliet Monroe.
Officer Bowman: Where are you, Juliet? We've got a trace on the call, but it would really help if you told us where you were.
SCP-3xxx-18: I don't know. It's dark and wet. I can't feel my arms. I'm just hearing you and… and just you. I've had to say the same things over and over again.
Officer Bowman: Mr. Wright told us that you sounded like a telemarketer. Are you being held against your will?
SCP-3xxx-18: Yes, I am. I don't know who did it.
Officer Bowman: Hold on. Apparently you're located in… [REDACTED], New York?
SCP-3xxx-18: New York? I'm from Wyoming. Where am I?
Officer Bowman: [Muffled] Get the FBI on the phone. [Normal volume] I'm going to stay on the line until they find you, Juliet. Do you have a mom and dad?
SCP-3xxx-18: Yes, they live at [DATA EXPUNGED].
[IRRELEVANT DATA REDACTED]
Officer Bowman: Juliet, we've managed to contact your parents. They say they miss you very much.
SCP-3xxx-18: Oh thank god, thank god.
Officer Bowman: The FBI team should be knocking on your door right now. Help's coming, Juliet. You're going home.
SCP-3xxx-18: I… I don't think that's true.
Officer Bowman: What do you mean?
SCP-3xxx-18: I just realized. I know why I can't feel anything. I remember my legs being taken, and my fingers being pulled off.
SCP-3xxx-18: I'm dead.
Addendum: Investigation of SCP-3xxx: Due to the nature of SCP-3xxx,
Charles,
We finally got the DNA results back for the brains; they're attached in a file. You're right, they all were all missing persons cases in the last ten years… and that's where it gets weird.
You'll quickly see this when you open the file, but all of the individuals whose DNA is present in 3xxx— that we can identify, at any rate — are females with the initials J.M. Jane Mahler, Josephine Milgram, Jill Milton, Janet MacAllister, Juliet Monroe… the list goes on. I've seen this pattern before, and just from reading the archives, I don't like where it's going.
There's one notable case, though.
The genetic markers in the brains you identified as "Jasmine"(Instance 17) and "Jolene" (Instance 25) are the only ones I couldn't find, until my colleague decided to look into the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's database. I did some more digging, found a pair of girls with those names who vanished in Mississippi in September 2011. You must remember it, the "Homecoming Snatching". I contacted their families and managed to acquire a DNA sample from them; they kept hairbrushes around— sure enough, it's a match. Jasmine Moodie and Jolene McDaniels.
Vanished for six years, and they turn up like this. And judging by their mental states, they weren't treated very nicely before they got turned into… that. I threw up in my mouth a little once I realized that a pair of fifteen-year-old girls had been turned into a goddamn Beowulf cluster call center. And we don't even know why.

Chuck,
I looked over the code from the brain farm, and I don't know what to say. This is just some basic script, something that I could write myself, if I managed to see the thing. There's no paracode in it, no memetic strings, nothing. It's just Java running on Unix, albeit a version of Java made for interfacing with organic materials; it's like something that bitch Craggs might dream up. Made for controlling every word from the mouth of those poor… god.
That's not to say that there's noting weird about it; the script for the call loop has a termination clause. It's not uncommon; most robocall farms have one in their code to say "stop calling at this time, resume calling at this time tomorrow." But this is just a flat termination; after 1,982 calls, the system makes one more call, and then the script that forces the brains to read out the code shuts off in the middle of the call.
Naturally, there's also a line to count up the number of calls made in order to make sure this bit of script triggers. Guess how many calls were made? That's right, 1,982. It's freaky, but not Sarkic freaky. Besides, I don't think that they could work a computer to save their hides.

Chuck,
Scratch that, I did find something weird in the code. There's some junk near the top of the call loop that I missed; Bloom recognized it as some obscure cipher. We're trying to decrypt it ASAP, but as it turns out, the original cipher is only partially solved, so that's fun. Will keep you updated.

To: Director Percy Bradbury
Subject: 1982I have talked at length with my colleagues about SCP-3xxx, and we all agree on one thing: at first, it made no sense. The cost of R&D for the life support system alone must have been astronomical; NASA might be able to accomplish this in a decade or five, if they were given the budget of the Pentagon. It would have been infinitely easier, and cheaper, to just program a voice-generation program to spoof the voice of a human woman for the sake of stealing identities. If they wanted to add an anomalous twist, they could easily ensoul it, or write a rudimentary AI.
Then we realized: there was literally no reason that whoever built this couldn't have just used a normal server farm. Combined with the lack of any apparent connection to any known group of interest with ties to biological or biomechanical integration or augmentation, it has led me to believe that whoever built this wanted these women to suffer.
What's more, I think we've seen this before. 1982. The initials J.M. recurring over and over.
I'm sounding overly dramatic; what I'm saying, Director, is that I'm going to need all level-4 and lower files regarding the "Roxbury" case, and SCP-[Blackbox]. I think it's back.

Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-3xxx refers to the handle of a large steak knife.
Item #: SCP-3xxx
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-3xxx are a series of anomalous broadcasts originating from the Hellas Basin on Mars's southern hemisphere. These broadcasts are almost invariably footage of gameplay from various video games with live commentary tracks over them, colloquially referred to as "Lets Plays". The broadcasts are often titled in a manner such as "Alien Buds Play [Game Title]". On one occasion, during a playthrough of the 2006 video game Sonic the Hedgehog, the videos were titled "Alien Buds Suffer Through Sonic the Hedgehog".
SCP-3xxx-1 through SCP-3xxx-4 refers to the individuals commentating SCP-3xxx broadcasts. SCP-3xxx-1 claims to be a human male from Ontario, Canada, named Adam LaPerle17, having been stranded on Mars during a classified space ride and having been rescued by SCP-3xxx-2. SCP-3xxx-1 shows an interest in American culture, particularly the superhero "Batman", and is the most knowledgeable of the commentators regarding the horror genre.
SCP-3xxx-2 claims to be a carbon-based humanoid originating on Mars, being simply named "Soombra", and residing underground in [REDACTED]18. SCP-3xxx-2 apparently studied both Martian and human psychology. SCP-3xxx-2 seems to be of a race of Martians that require a higher salt content to maintain physical health; when the SCP-3xxx broadcasts began, other commentators often displayed annoyance at SCP-3xxx-2 consuming salty snacks loudly during commentary.
SCP-3xxx-3 is simply called "Middan", and claims to be a Vulcan from the planet Raxicoracrafalipitorious19; however Middan is known to often lie, a trait that does not affect their relationship with other commentators. SCP-3xxx-3 has had access to
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: Due to the difficultly of detecting SCP-XXXX prior to a "Meet Cute" event, containment is primarily focused on information suppression post-incident. SCP-XXXX-B instances are to be impounded for study, and are to be stored in Vehicular Containment Garages as appropriate, pending destruction.
If SCP-XXXX is detected prior to a "Meet Cute" event, an attempt is to be made so that SCP-XXXX-A individuals are to be restrained or otherwise made unable to participate in these events, and are to be interviewed as any civilian who was affected by an anomalous event, monitored until SCP-XXXX symptoms cease, and then released following administration of appropriate amnestics.
Description: SCP-XXXX is an phenomenon primarily affecting women and motor vehicles in rural areas of the United States, Italy, Australia, China, and Russia. In humans, SCP-XXXX is primarily characterized by the sudden development of mechanophilia20, in spite of any any previous romantic or sexual inclinations, or the lack thereof. Individuals who are affected by SCP-XXXX (henceforth SCP-XXXX-A) have several consistent characteristics:
- All subjects are over the age of forty-five
- All subjects both identify as and are biologically female; transgender and transsexual individuals seem to be unaffected by SCP-XXXX.
- All subjects reside in areas where the human population within 10.7 square kilometers is less than 6,000 individuals
- All subjects are physically capable of walking unassisted
- No subject has been in a sexual or romantic relationship for at least four years, three months.
- All subjects have at least one child; the presence of grandchildren in the family seems to increase the chance that SCP-XXXX will affect an individual.
Due to the aforementioned mechanophilia, SCP-XXXX-A instances will actively seek out automobiles, diverting from their daily routines and oftentimes putting themselves in physical danger in the process. SCP-XXXX-A instances show particular interest in models that are no longer being manufactured; studied individuals have shown the highest signs of sexual arousal in the presence of cars, particularly automobiles that were manufactured within fifteen years of SCP-XXXX-A's birth year.
Automobiles21 affected by SCP-XXXX are termed SCP-XXXX-B. SCP-XXXX-B instances seem to be "paired" with anywhere between one and four SCP-XXXX-A instances, and are capable of self-locomotion. If SCP-XXXX-B is driven, it will often divert its course towards areas where SCP-XXXX-A instances live. It should be noted that SCP-XXXX-B instances are not sentient or sapient, and seem to simply be reacting to the SCP-XXXX anomaly itself, rather than acting of its own volition.
In the presence of SCP-XXXX-A instances, SCP-XXXX-B will stall and fail to start. SCP-XXXX-B instances being driven will have their drivers lose all control over their car, and will often attempt to exit the vehicle. SCP-XXXX-A instances will approach SCP-XXXX-B instances and attempt to interact with them. Despite a lack of response from SCP-XXXX-B instances, the SCP-XXXX-A instance will behave as if though they were capable of speech, carrying on one-sided conversations; the most common topics in these include automobile maintenance, fuel prices, the cities of Dearborn and Detroit, Michigan, Henry Ford's anti-semetic views, and seatbelts.
SCP-XXXX-A individuals will attempt to regularly meet with any SCP-XXXX-B instance in their area, often fixating on one or two particular instances. SCP-XXXX-B instances are often broken into for the sake of SCP-XXXX-A apparently achieving some form of sexual gratification, but in almost all cases, SCP-XXXX-B instances are not stolen.
In 92% of cases, SCP-XXXX-A and -B instances will organize what has been designated as a "Meet Cute" event. In this event, the SCP-XXXX-A instance will find one or more SCP-XXXX-B instances, who will follow the former to an area of road that is otherwise unoccupied. SCP-XXXX-A will stand in the center of the road, and attempt to mimic vehicular sounds for anywhere from five minutes to ten hours. Eventually, there is one of two outcomes:
- The SCP-XXXX-B instance(s) will seem to lose interest, and shortly thereafter, all anomalous properties.
- The SCP-XXX-B instances will accelerate towards SCP-XXXX-A instances at speeds of at least 97 kph, regardless of whether or not the SCP-XXXX-B instance is capable of reaching this speed non-anomalously. If impact occurs, the SCP-XXXX-A instance is killed in 76% of cases, with survivors often left physically disabled for the rest of their lives. Autopsies on deceased SCP-XXXX-A instances following a "Meet Cute" event show a 500% larger amount of dopamine in their brains than other individuals who have died in similar accidents.
If either the SCP-XXXX-A is injured or impaired in such a way that a "Meet Cute" cannot occur (i.e. breaking a leg, being physically bound, leaving their place of residence for a period of at least ten days), then all anomalous properties will gradually cease. SCP-XXXX-A individuals will report a complete lack of interest in cars beyond driving them following this, and will lose all mechanophiliac tendencies.
SCP-XXXX was initially discovered following a mass "Meet Cute" event in █████████████, Ohio, USA, which was originally recorded as an Extranormal Event (See Below) due to its apparently isolated nature. However, a reoccurring pattern emerged with incidents occurring in several other countries, with similar circumstances. The surfacing of a security tape from a gas station in Colorado showing a woman engaging in the "Meet Cute" event with a pickup truck, along with three similar events in California, Maine, and Nebraska, led the Foundation to investigate these incidents as a pattern.
As of March 2017, there have been over 250 recorded instances of SCP-XXXX, with the first instance believed to have been some time between 1970 and 1972. More possible instances are currently under investigation.
Original Documentation:
Designation: EE-1992-46
Description of Event: Ten women, between the ages of 45 and 69, were found dead in the middle of the main road leading into █████████████, Ohio from the south, apparently all having been run over by "vintage" cars brought into town as part of a traveling show; the most recent car involved was dated to 1970. The cars were found to not have been driven in the last decade, and, in fact, five of the involved cars were rendered unable to function normally.
Date of Occurance: ██/██/1992
Location of Occurance:█████████████, Ohio
Follow-Up Actions Taken: Autopsies covertly performed on victims, and cars deconstructed; neither have anomalous properties. However, the deceased were noted to have much higher dopamine levels in their system than is normal in the event of vehicular death.
Video Log SCP-XXXX-205-199: The following is an excerpt from a Youtube entitled "Senile Woman Talks To Car, Police Come, WTF?!" . This video is believed to depict an interaction between an SCP-XXXX-A instance (later identified as Maria "Bobbie" Frank of Sistersville, West Virginia, designated SCP-XXXX-A-205) and an SCP-XXXX-B instance (SCP-XXXX-B-199, a 1980 Ford Fairmont). Ms. Frank was severely injured in a "Meet Cute" event six weeks after this recording was uploaded onto Youtube in May 2016, and died in the hospital two weeks later.
SCP-XXXX-A-205: Well, no, I'm afraid I don't have much of a taste in German cars, I always prefer them American-made. Oh, at a former Chrysler plant? That's adorable! And you're the only one that came out blue in your lot?
Unidentified Male (Owner of SCP-XXXX-B-199): Lady, can you stop? I have kids I need to pick up from school-
SCP-XXXX-A-205: Don't be rude! We're having a conversation. Young people these days, I swear. Pity about that license plate, though, all dinged up; you've been run into the back of a garage a number of times, haven't you? Oh, that's dreadful. Some people need to know when to step on the breaks and when to turn on the gas.
At this point, the unidentified male produces a cell phone from their pocket. The video cuts to approximately three minutes later, when police arrive, presumably to take SCP-XXXX-A-205 into custody. SCP-XXXX-A-205 addresses one of the police cruisers; despite the car being unmanned, it proceeds to accelerate forward and severely damage SCP-XXXX-B-199.
SCP-XXXX-A-205(while assaulting police cruiser): You brute! You've wrecked his bumper! That was the nicest part of him!

Item #: SCP-001
Object Class: Archon
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-001 is the designation for 255,500 Alternate Universes, 5,500 of which are Near Identical Universes(NIUs)22 accessible from and observable within the local multiversal zone that the baseline universe resides in. For all intents and purposes, SCP-001 instances are the baseline, and when not interacted with, events within them will happen identically to the baseline. SCP-001 instances have an open material system within them; matter transferred into or out of universes within this system is not in violation of the laws of thermodynamics, indicating that all SCP-001 instances exist within a larger system.
SCP-001-x23 refers to any method capable of transversing between SCP-001 instances. SCP-001-α refers to either naturally-occurring or artificially made, thaumaturgically-maintained extra-universal passages colloquially referred to as "Ways" by various groups of interest. More recently created SCP-001-α instances often require some form of ritual in order to open, as a safeguard for passage into SCP-████, the only known termination point for all SCP-001-α instances. Instances dating prior to approximately 5,000BCE have no such safeguards, but are effectively impossible to access due to their location in geological strata. The oldest-known of these instances dates back to the Jurassic era, and is located approximately 5km below an insignificant area of the State of Wyoming, USA, as determined by the Bailey-King survey of 1982.
SCP-001-β refers to a recessive gene located in the [DATA EXPUNGED] of the human genome; less than 0.0001% of humanity carries this gene, and currently, only █████ living individuals are known to possess it. This gene is responsible for the manifestation of abilities that correspond to the Type-Green Reality Altering Individual profile, including the ability to seemingly violate the laws of thermodynamics through generation and destruction of matter; however, the SCP-001-β gene simply allows individuals that it is active in to cause the transposition of matter and energy from other universes into the universe they are currently residing in. The SCP-001-β gene does not allow for alteration of material from the baseline, simply the transposition of it.
Think of it this way: a child has a red cube in their hand, and under a sheet of water, there's an identical cube, except it's blue. The child can only use one hand, and can't put the red cube down, so if he wants the blue cube, he's going to have to drop the red cube into the water and pick up the other one. That's what the 001-β gene allows. - Dr. Tyler Bailey, March 15th, 1992
SCP-001-γ refers to fifteen anomalous devices created by the Foundation, designated Multi-Universal Transit Arrays (MUTAs). Invented by Tyler Bailey and Richard King in 1977, the SCP-001-γ is similar to SCP-001-α instances, except that MUTA devices are capable of extra-universal transit without the need of accessing SCP-████. A single MUTA device is capable of accessing the majority of SCP-001 instances; however, ████ remain inaccessible for unknown reasons.

God dammit, dad. Dead for twenty years, still can't crack your password. This is what we've found out since then. It's bad. Long story short, if you're reading this: thermodynamics is FUCKED. -Dr. Tristan Bailey, Acting Director, Department of Multi-Universal Affairs
Addendum 001-1: On November 3th, 1992, 221 of the 5,500 NIUs listed as SCP-001 instances experienced a major divergence from the baseline with the advent of the United States Presidential election of that year; while in the baseline, William Jefferson Clinton was elected as the 42nd President of the United States, the previously-conforming NIUs elected several other individuals, including Bob Dole, Ralph Nader, ██████ ███████, George Voinovich, Richard Garfield, Quentin Tarantino, and Melissa Joan-Hart.
Further perusal of other NIU instances found several noticeable divergences, seemingly undocumented or ignored by Dr. Richard King, head of the department of Multi-Universal Affairs. As of January 17th, 1993, only 1,265 SCP-001 instances remain classified as NIUs. Dr. King's employment with the Foundation was subsequently terminated.
Addendum 001-2: Destruction of SCP-001-4825: On February 5th, 1994, the NIU designated SCP-001-4825 underwent an unknown event. This effect was instantaneous and all-encompassing, affecting the entirety of the universe as opposed to conforming to the laws of the speed of light. SCP-001-4825 was rendered inaccessible, with all matter in the universe having taken on the properties of marble.
This event has been theorized to have taken place due to a containment breach of SCP-001-β positive individual SCP-███, and their subsequent death. The implications this has on the effect that SCP-███'s death would have on the baseline universe are currently unknown.
Addendum 001-3: Destruction of SCP-001-9541 and SCP-001-9542: During a diplomatic exchange between the NIU designated SCP-001-9541 and the alternate universe SCP-001-9542, the latter began spontaneously experiencing a heat death event, with the epicenter being at the Multi-Universal Transit Array at Site-19 in both universes. Within five hours, the entirety of the solar system was at -1 degree Kelvin, below absolute zero; similar events have been detected throughout the Milky Way within these two SCP-001 instances.
It has been theorized that SCP-001 instances do not exist within an open loop, and that the opening and closing of SCP-001-x instances, and the transferal of matter between SCP-001 instances actively degrades the universe due to the apparent creation and destruction of matter. Investigation into the implications of this are ongoing.
Addendum 001-4: Death of William Clinton: On July 4th, 1994, President Bill Clinton died following choking on a piece of food during an American Independence Day celebration, and Al Gore is currently president of the United States of America. This brings baseline out of conjunction with the majority of the remaining NIUs detected by the Foundation; as such, baseline has been reclassified as SCP-001-A, due to this drastic divergence.
Addendum 001-06: At some point between July 17th, 1994 and July 19th, 1994, a CK-Class Reality Restructuring Event took place, rendering the events of the previous two weeks non-existent; Bill Clinton is currently the president of the United States, despite 10% of the populace, and Foundation records, remembering and documenting his death on live television. This remains true in all NIUs still monitored by the Foundation.
The Mandela Effect is a bitch, ain't it? We know that Clinton died. I remember seeing it, but neither Tom nor Tristan does. This is around the point the Foundation, as a whole, went into panic mode.- Dr. Trevor Bailey, Assistant Director, Department of Multi-Universal Affairs
Addendum 001-09: CK-Class Restructuring Scenario of Site-19: During a routine test of the Multi-Universal Transit Array at Site 19 in August 1994, a major reality shift occurred at Site-19. Previously located at coordinates [REDACTED] in Nevada, USA, Site-19 is also simultaneously located in New York, Michigan, Italy, Germany, China, Mongolia, Australia, and in the Mare Smythii on Earth's moon. In addition, several duplicates of personnel stationed at Site-19, several of which are anomalous, appeared in all of these locations.
It is hypothesized that the test of the MUTA resulted in the Site-19s from other SCP-001 instances phasing in onto our own baseline, including all personnel contained therein. This process has proven to be irreversible.
The MUTA network has been shut down pending approval by O5 command to recommence study into the issues it has experienced. Methods for viewing other universes, but not interacting with them, are still being used by Foundation personnel.
Addendum 001-09A: Site-19 has undergone a second CK-Class event at an unknown point in time before January 1st, 2000, with all instances of Site-19 returning to their respective universes, leaving only the baseline location in Nevada. At each of the locations where Site-19 was simultaneously present, blood belonging to an as of yet unidentified species of snake was discovered.
Addendum 001-15: The Destruction and Restoration of Three Portlands: On December 25th, 1995, the anomalous autonomous state of Three Portlands was destroyed by unknown causes, collapsing the pocket dimension that was connected to the cities of Portland, Maine, Portland Oregon, and the Isle of Portland, United Kingdom. The resultant energy released by this collapse was equivalent to a total of 5,000 megaton explosion, and resulted in the destruction of all urban areas within these blast radii.
However, as Foundation task forces were mobilizing to survey the damage, a CK-Class Reality Restructuring Event occurred, and all damage done to Three Portlands and the areas it connects to was undone. Knowledge of this event appears to have been lost to the general populace and all inhabitants of Three Portlands.
Upon entry into Three Portlands, Foundation forces found a copy of a book entitled The Mechanics of Multi-Universal Collapse by Dr. Tyler Bailey; Dr. Bailey has never published a book under this title, but has confirmed the existence of a half-finished manuscript in his possession. The inside front cover of the book bore markings indicating its point of origin being SCP-████, along with a note written in twenty-five different languages, including English, German, Cantonese, Linear A, Klingon, and Old High Daevic:
Gave us heartburn.
See above note about the Mandela Effect that Trev made. We weren't even sure this shit was happening, it could have just been anomalous news reports or severely altered intelligence or something. We thought the Serpent's Hand was behind this— we saw the Librarian's in the reconstituted universes.
It turned out to be more like a giant, serpentine dick.- Thomas Bailey, Assistant Director, Department of Multi-Universal Affairs.
Addendum 001-20: Reconstitution of SCP-001-4825, SCP-001-9541 and SCP-001-9542: The aforementioned destroyed SCP-001 instance, SCP-001-4825, was surveyed on September 3rd, 1996, and was found to have undergone drastic changes since its transmutation into marble.
Most matter in SCP-001-4825 has been reshaped into a large, singular structure made out of marble. It has been furnished with several dozen desks made of unknown wood or wood-like material, which are in turn furnished with electric reading lamps. The walls that make of the structure of SCP-001-4825 have bookshelves carved into them, and have been stocked with a number of items exceeding two-hundred and fifty trillion, attended to by SCP-████-A instances, but are otherwise unpopulated.
A subsequent survey of SCP-001-9541 and SCP-001-9542 shows that it has undergone similar changes, and is likewise attended to by SCP-████-A instances; however, the purpose of these two universes appears to be cold storage for [DATA EXPUNGED].
Addendum 001-24: Increased Anomaly Rate in Correlation With Extrauniversal Travel: The following is from an unfinished essay by Dr. Tyler Bailey, found in his personal effects following his death on January 19th, 1997. No foul play is suspected in Dr. Bailey's death; COD was determined to be a brain aneurysm.
Extra-universal portals have always existed in some form, though up until the advent of humanity, they were rare; only three have ever been detected on earth that were naturally made: The one beneath Wyoming, one in Antarctica, and the last underneath Lake Baikal. The rest have been man made, whether they be "ways" or my own MUTA.
[Need to put a chart here once it finishes rendering. Fucking Windows.]
Beginning with the more prominent activity of the Serpent's Hand in the 1600s, anomalous activity has been on a strong upswing. The two graphs above show the anomaly rates in two universes; the graph in green is a universe where the Serpent's Hand has not infiltrated; to us, it's SCP-001-152451. The graph in red is our own. We have not physically interacted (i.e. crossed over) with SCP-001-152451, but we are aware of its existence, and they are aware of our own. SCP-001-152451 appears to have some form of extra-universal shield around it that prevents the formation of passages into and out of this universe through artificial means. However, communication established shows that the Lake Baikal, Antartica and Wyoming anomalies exist, along with a fourth anomaly somewhere in New York.
With this phenomenon has also come an increase in global temperatures far beyond what human activity alone can accomplish. Since the incident with the heat death scenario, it's been hypothesized that cross-universal travel has led to a gradual breakdown in the laws of thermodynamics, specifically the conservation of energy and matter. Universes were never meant to interact on this scale. SCP-001-152451 has a hard barrier around it, preventing travel, but ours, and countless others, do not.
The growth of anomalous occurrences is correlated with the increase of cross-universal traffic, and has had its strongest upswing with the advent of the MUTA; however, the connection is much harder to find. There are three hypotheses I currently have:
1) The violation of Thermodynamic laws has led to a breakdown of local reality, causing an increased formation of anomalies.
2) According to the de Garcia "Living Universe" hypothesis, the universe is generating anomalies centered around Earth as a means to warn off humanity from extra-universal travel.
3) Individuals from other universe are purposefully, maliciously introducing anomalies to the baseline for the sake of promoting the creation of more passages between universes.The third hypothesis is particularly horrifying. We've seen two universes repurposed for unknown means by a known entity: the ever-elusive Wanderer's Library. This hypothesis will be explored in full detail
[End of Essay]
There were the last things dad wrote. He was kind of a jackass, but, fuck, he was a great man, better scientist. An aneurysm, they said. But, in a way… it kind of ushered in a new age.
The MUTA 5.2 was invented a few years after his death, using some notes he left behind. He managed to fix the thermodynamic problem and begin slightly unfucking the laws of physics. It was fucking weird, and Trevor understands how it works, but it involves dozens of formulas that only he and dad could wrap their heads around.
Then, things got quiet. NIUs stopped diverging as much. Worst it got was that Harry Potter was a ginger and Ron had black hair. We kept travel down to a minimum until 2010.
…then, in 2018, shit got bad again.
Here's a fun fact, by the way: did you know that memetic kill agents and brain aneurysms have very similar symptoms? Because I sure do now.
- Dr. Tristan Bailey
Addendum 001-55: Reality Failure of SCP-001-000042: SCP-001-000042 ceased to exist on June 28th, 2018. Prior to this event, the Foundation equivalent in this universe reported large root-like structures emerging from areas around the world that corresponded to entrances to SCP-001-α instances. Five days following this, the reality that SCP-001-000042 occupied apparently experienced a spontaneous ZK-Class Scenario, only to be replaced by an unknown entity designated SCP-001-Omega.
SCP-001-Omega is a large, fleshy mass that currently exceeds the size of the solar system present in SCP-001-000042, over 4.5 Gm24. SCP-001-Omega is believed to be the interior cavity of a gigantic ophidian entity, specifically the thoracic cavity. Instances of SCP-████-A have been seen within this cavity, acting in a role analogous to leukocytes. An unknown number of these instances make up SCP-001-Omega's heart.
Threat ID:
KTE-2832-Caliburn Köppen Wagner – "Sundered Meteorokinetic War Hammer"
Authorized Response Level:
4 (Severe Threat)
Description:
Component Able is the remains of a war hammer made of a beryllium-steel alloy, with the handle wrapped in goat leather cloth. Components Baker, Charlie, and Dog refer to three of the four fragments that made up the head of the war hammer; a fourth component, Component Easy, is believed to be irrecoverable is known to be under Foundation custody.
The damaged nature of the above components causes extreme amounts of abnormal activity in the troposphere, particularly in Scandinavia and Greenland. KTE-2832-Caliburn Köppen Wagner has lead to a large increase in severe weather patterns in the extreme northern regions of Earth, particularly thunder storms, blizzards, and thunder snow.
Component Foxtrot refers to the corpse of an individual of apparent Scandinavian origin, found clutching Component Able. Foxtrot possesses red hair and mucular hypertrophy. Dorsal side of Foxtrot is covered in a tattoo resembling the design on the Stenkvista runestone. Corpse has failed to decay after a year, and all tissue is impenetrable by both conventional and augmented means.
Rules of Engagement:
Further damage to the item is not advised. Attempts to repair the item have proved impossible due to the volatility of the object, and attempts to replicate the item have failed due to the inherent abnormal nature of the item. It is believed that forging techniques used by LTE-1993-Brown("Nordic Microhumanoids") contributed to the anomalous properties of this item.
Currently, the Coalition is attempting to find remnants of LTE-1993-Brown in order to reforge KTE-2832-Caliburn Köppen Wagner. It is hypothesized that, despite the population LTE-1993-Brown being decimated by KTE-3481-Lyell Silver in the 1950s, some vestige of the population still exists in the Indian Subcontinent.
History:
KTE-2832-Caliburn Köppen Wagner was discovered following the liquidation of LTE-2712-Bosch, with Component Foxtrot having been found floating in the water, clutching Component Able in its right hand. Components Baker, Charlie and Delta were found embedded in a nearby reef. These items were recovered and impounded without the Foundation's knowledge. Component Easy, unfortunately, was discovered by the Foundation and is currently stored at an unknown location for an unknown purpose.
Internal fMRI scans have revealed Component Foxtrot massive compound fractures along the right arm, consistent with impact from swinging a blunt object at a hard surface at very high speeds. However, actual cause of death appears to be injuries related to the use of the anti-gravity device used to liquidate LTE-2712-Bosch, suggesting that it was within the mouth of the latter entity during the detonation.
Combined with the damage caused by tsunamis from the emergence of LTE-2712-Bosch, the effects of this item has led to severe unrest in Russia, Canada and Alaska. The prominence of colder weather, it is noted, has begun to ease the pressures of climate change on polar ice caps; however, it is estimated it will take another 200 years for this to have a noticeable effect on global climate.
As of November 7th 2███, all contact between the Fellowship of the Faith of the Æsir and the Global Occult Coalition has ceased, with this missive:
[PSYCHE Records excerpt]
While we thank you for your instrumental role in the prevention of The End Times, we can no longer cooperate with you on this matter. Dwarf-kind has left Midgard, and fled up the branches of the world tree. If, by some providence, you do find some part of them left in Midgard, we wish you good fortune, and pray that Mjolnir can be reforged.
We can no longer help. Humanity has been shown to be capable of saving itself. You no longer have need for gods.
[End PSYCHE Records excerpt]
Attempts to contact the FFA following this have failed. Two more Coalition member organizations, the Society for Olympian Restoration and the House of the Ookami, have gone dark in addition to this.
On January 12th, 2███, the Coalition found a camp of LTE-1998-Brown beneath Kolkata; however, the camp seems to have been abandoned, with no trace of habitation within the last five months.
Documents were recovered that describe forging and smithing processes used by LTE-1998-Brown. Currently, Coalition forces are attempting to understand the process to repair KTE-2832-Caliburn Köppen Wagner, as well as use of the processes for the purpose of creating new forms of weaponry.
A final member of LTE-1998-Brown is speculated to still live on Earth, and is reportedly under custody of the Foundation. Unfortunately, the Foundation has been uncooperative and unresponsive to requests regarding the whereabouts of this individual, should they exist.
As of April 2███, atmospheric conditions in the far northern hemisphere have become less hostile with the advent of spring. However, it is predicted that, during the next winter, conditions caused by KTE-2832-Caliburn Köppen Wagner will worsen, making it imperative to repair or restore it prior to November, at the latest.
On July 25th, 2███, a short message was received from the FFA via a sciurine courier:
We have taken the remains of Wotanson. We have bestowed knowledge in return.
Component Foxtrot was found to be missing from its storage following this; in its place was a series of maps showing a facility in the Sonoran desert, with the word "Dveger" written on the map in Norse script. The location corresponds to a Foundation base of operations.
Currently, the Coalition is in negotiations with the Foundation for the release of the LTE-1998-Brown individual. Should negotiations fail, Protocol SHAKEN HOUSE is to go into effect.

Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-XXXX refers to the remnants of a pocket dimension located in the basement of a house in Cleveland, Ohio. Formerly, SCP-XXXX was a recognized non-hostile 'BackDoor' community 'BackDoor' communities are artificially-created pocket dimensions which are inhabited by individuals both anomalous and non-anomalous, forming miniature communities. While genuinely benign, these communities pose a threat to the Foundation's mission of secrecy, and are usually shut down or put under monitoring when discovered with a population of 820, colloquially known as 'Hastily Made Cleveland BackDoor'. Due to the nature in which it was destroyed, the basement which SCP-XXXX occupies is approximately ten kilometers larger than the exterior space would allow.
SCP-XXXX contains the remains of approximately 291 buildings, including a grocery store, several clothing stores, twenty apartment complexes, a string of houses, recreational facilities, a television studio, a tourism bureau, and several restaurants. The buildings contained in here show signs of being heavily besieged, with 50 of the 291 buildings being partially or completely destroyed.
Hastily Made Cleveland Backdoor was created by collaboration between a cell of Gamers Against Weed and a group known as "The Dandelion Warhols, Class of 198X", a benign anartist collective primarily made up of former students of the Cleveland Institute of Art from the 1980s. Installations and pieces created by the Dandelion Warhols are primarily commentaries on violence and crime within Cleveland, Ohio.
SCP-XXXX contains several anomalies, either created by the inhabitants of Hastily Made Cleveland BackDoor or as a result of the destruction of the pocket dimension that once housed it. Currently, 357 confirmed anomalies have been observed in or recovered from SCP-XXXX.

These are used as confirmation that the bearer is allowed into a BackDoor dimension. Each BackDoor has their own special key, and they can be anything from subway tokens to medical bracelets to a tattoo. -Dr. Carter |
| SCP-XXXX-02 | A series of black holes that appear in SCP-XXXX on an irregular basis. | Around SCP-XXXX | Often accompanied by audio anomalies, usually made up of a series of swear words. | While moderately destructive, human beings are massive enough that it is unlikely that they are pulled into the event horizon. |

Nexus #: Nx-0018
Civilian Designation: Sloth's Pit, Wisconsin
Population: 21,214
Area Class: Shangri-La
Nexus Interaction Protocol: Civilians within Nx-0018 are fully aware of the anomalous nature of the area they populate, and have been encouraged to cooperate with Foundation personnel on matters pertaining to anomalies within the town. The populous of Nx-0018 is amicable, and have E-Personnel-Class Level knowledge of Foundation operations.
Due to the familiarity the majority of the citizens of Sloth's Pit, Wisconsin have with the anomalous, it has been deemed that amnestic exposure would be actively detrimental to their way of life. However, Nx-0018 is frequented by tourists during the summer and fall; during this time, agents are to discreetly administer Class-F amnestic to non-native individuals, and a subliminal signal is to be broadcasted through any broadcast-capable equipment around town to suppress the formation of memories related to anomalous events.
In the event that an individual from outside of Sloth's Pit, Wisconsin wishes to take up permanent residence, see Subsection 15, Appendix J of the Sloth's Pit zoning code.
Anomalies within Nx-0018 are widely varied, and are to be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. However, there are several reoccurring, predicable anomalies (For an example, see Document Nx-0018-Apollo-15, aka "Gravity Fails") which can either be avoided or easily contained.
The following Holidays are not to be celebrated within Nx-0018 under any circumstances:
- Robert E. Lee's birthday (January 19th)
- National Library Worker's Day (April 21st)
- American Independence Day (July 4th)
- St. Nicholas's Day (December 6th)
Local bylaws are to dictate any punishment for attempting to celebrate these holidays.
Containment Facility: Site 87, Codenamed S & C Plastics, dedicated to Research and Development of Anomalous Containment Techonlogy, Headquarters of the Department of Multi-universal Affairs, and General Nexus Studies.
Description: Nx-018 is a city located in Douglas County, Wisconsin.
As a side effect of the combination of the two logical systems, several Unknown Anomalous Entities have appeared in the town since the Genesis event. Contact has been made with several of these UAEs, and all of them- particularly UAE-Chapman-341 ("The Goatman") and UAE-Chapam-342 ("Sinning Jessie)- show a great matter of disdain for the Foundation, related to Incident Nx-0018-Forest Green. The UAEs are not openly hostile towards residents of Nx-0018, but have been known to attempt to frighten civilians that venture into their territory, usually in wooded areas. As of writing, there have been zero casualties related to a UAE within Nx-0018 since at least 1952.
Collected Documents:
Name: Jackson Marcus Sloth
Date of Birth: January 17th, 1847
Date of Death: December 25th, 1890
Reason(s) for Interest:
- Death occurred immediately prior to manifestation of Genesis event
- Several artifacts apparently owned by Jackson Sloth possess anomalous properties
- Burial marker in local cemetery has been moved at least ten times since death (body was not recovered following death, see file on Genesis event)
- Unknown Anomalous Entities within Nx-0018 treat Sloth with a great amount of reverence
Incident Nx-0018-Genesis:
The Genesis incident for Nx-0018 occurred on December 25th, 1890, following the conclusion of a Christmas party held by Jackson Sloth, the town's founder. Approximately an hour after the last guest left the premises, an earthquake occurred, damaging several buildings within New Toronto. The full effects of the quake would not be noticed until the next morning.
On December 26th, during a Boxing Day celebration, Jackson Sloth was notably absent. When he was sent for, Sloth's manor was found to have been entirely destroyed, having collapsed into an apparent sinkhole. Sloth's body was not recovered, nor were the bodies of his wife Harriet Manchester-Sloth or his youngest son Jasper Phineas Sloth; his daughter Caroline Sloth, was hospitalized for burns sustained from a kitchen fire a week previously.

[[tab 001 Proposal: What's In The Box?]]
Item #: SCP-001
Object Class: Proteus
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-001 refers to a series of objects that are considered puzzles, games, or
SCP-001α (Henceforth referred to as "Alpha Iteration") was believed to have existed since at least 225 BCE in Pre-Qin Dynasty, China. Alpha Iteration was a puzzle box carved with some form of lotus flower on the top side, believed to have a volume of 12.6 cm3.
Alexander III of Macedon25. Alexander solved Alpha Iteration after receiving it during the Indian Campaign, and a currently unnamed source in Alexander's marching party recounts the incident:
…It was as if Alexander was struck in the face by a rock from a sling as he opened the box, which gave a horrendous clicking noise as it opened, like a beetle or a creation of Hephaestus. He fell to the ground, stunned, and stayed there as the box closed of its own accord; I caught a glimpse of the interior, and saw it empty.
He soon stood, and called for a scroll, and a writing utensil. These were given to him, and he began scribbling down a diagram of some form, which he inscribed as "The Tomb of Basileus26 Alexander the Great". He instructed to a messenger to send the box, and the scroll, to Alexandria, and to give it to his faithful general Ptolemy.27.
From this point, SCP-001 was kept in the Library of Alexandria's museum, with strict instructions to not attempt to open it. A document recovered by the Horizon Initiative from a site related to the Library of Alexandria is believed to detail Alpha Iteration:
The box is relatively small apparatus, made from an unknown wood. Inspection of the box is forbidden by Ptolemy himself, and he stated that, if the box were to be open, a pox would be on all of our heads, and the heads of all of Alexandria.
It is quite unlike any box I have ever seen. From the writings of the dead king, we have gathered that it is some form of toy, but said to bestow great knowledge; perhaps Pallas had a hand in building it? Several of us have been tempted to try and open the box, but it is well-guarded; we have to petition the Pharaoh to even touch it.
However, it is believed that, some time c. 40-45 CE, Alpha Iteration was solved, as detailed in the following document:
The box gave a mechanical whirring sound, much like those horrid automata, and then, most unexpectedly, it did not open. Instead, it bled. The box gave a screech, and then, it bled ink from the small fissures that made up the moving parts of the box.
We immediately went to incinerate it, but unexpectedly, the ink began spelling out words, by itself. It read "Please do not burn our parent."
Originally, Alpha Iteration was believed to have been destroyed during the sack of Alexandria by Julius Caesar in 48CE. However, Texts recovered from an archeological site on the island of [REDACTED], Greece28 related to the Broken Church indicate that Alpha Iteration was in their possession at some point circa 50CE. From the Book of Pieces, Chapter 15 (The Lost Gear):
- Washing upon the shores of the Anvil, a small, wooden box came to his loved ones. two units by two units by two units29
- The Broken One's hammer quieted after the box washed upon the shore, and his children were horrified. For twenty days and nineteen nights, the hammer delivered no blows. The forge was quieted.
- Believing the box to be the cause, the Mechanist prayed to the Broken One for guidance. "Oh lord, we miss the sound of your hammer, the feel of your bellows, the heat of your forge. What have we done to anger you?"
- And the Broken One said unto them, "It is a puzzle you must solve for yourself, my children."
- And so, his Children set to work on the puzzle. For twenty more days, they worked on it, unable to solve it in its entirety.
- Finally, out of frustration, one of the craftsman Ion took the box and dashed it against the wall. The anvil shook at this action, and the Broken One's voice bellowed.
- "Fool!" he said. "That gear is now lost forever! It is a small gear, but I may not ever be whole without it! For this, I name the Anathema, and I cast thee out!
- Thou shalt never set foot in one of my sacred lands again as long as you live!"
- And so, Ion was made into the Anathema of the Broken One, and forever cast out, until the Great Tragedy of the Flesh.
Beta Iteration's existence was unknown until 2005, when fragments of it were discovered at an archeological site in Southern Montana. Currently, Beta Iteration is believed to be a Tower of Hanoi puzzle, dated to at least 500 CE.
Beta Iteration:
Period of Existence: C. 100 CE North America- c. 300 CE North America
Appearance: "Tower of Hanoi" puzzle, made from mastodon ivory.
Notable Solutions Unknown.
Circumstances of Destruction: Unknown; believed to have been destroyed in a fire.
Notes:
The existence of Beta Iteration is only known through oral tradition among the Tongva Native American peoples in Southern California, and archeological evidence recovered in the Los Angeles area. The Tongva people describe Beta Iteration as being delivered to them by a "man with no color, from the north", and that, after it was solved, it delivered inspiration to the solvers through dreams, through an entity or group of entities known as "The Collective", and that Beta Iteration was transported by servants of the collective, who were possibly spirits.
Beta Iteration was destroyed circa 300CE when, according to tradition, Manit30 delivered a vision to a tribal leader about how the Collective were "evil" and instructed Beta Iteration to be destroyed.
A 2009 expedition from the University of Berkley found a structure that resembled a Tower of Hanoi puzzle constructed out of mastodon ivory and carbon dated to 2000 years old, despite the fact that the Tower of Hanoi puzzle was conceived by French mathematician Édouard Lucas in 1883. The item was seize by the Foundation under standard OoPArt retrieval protocols.

These items (Designated SCP-001-α through θ) can always be defined as some form of puzzle, including riddles, ciphers, puzzle boxes, combination locks, and, in the case of iteration θ, encrypted software.
Any human being that solves an instance of SCP-001 will invariably gain knowledge that is immediately relevant to them within 91 hours of solving it, either through direct means (such as SCP-001 containing a note with an equation written on it) or indirect means (such as, as recorded in the journals of some SCP-001 solvers, being "suddenly struck by inspiration"). Following this, SCP-001 will invariably disappear from the possession of the individual or organization that used it, being either lost, stolen, or in rare cases, destroyed.
SCP-001 instances are notably not indestructible, and will decay if not properly preserved, and can be destroyed by the force it would take to destroy an equivalent non-anomalous item. For example, SCP-001-ɛ , believed to be a book of complex riddles, was destroyed by fire in 1666 in London, England. However, within sixty years of the destruction, a new instance of SCP-001 manifested elsewhere.
Currently, SCP-001 is in Iteration Theta(θ), and is an encrypted hard drive used by Dr. Tyler Bailey prior to his death in 1997. Dr. Bailey was noted for having a part in creating the Bailey-Briggs Equation, which allowed for the containment of SCP-████. As of 01/01/2005, SCP-001's encryption has yet to be broken.
Addendum: SCP-001 Manifestation: The following is a list of known manifestations of SCP-001.
Alpha Iteration
SCP-001-α was a wooden puzzle box first appearing in 225 BCE in Pre-Qin Dynasty China. Details about Alpha Iteration describe the puzzle as varying in difficulty and number of steps, and bore an image of an opening lotus blossom.31
Alexander III of Macedon32 is believed to have come into contact with Alpha Iteration, which had been found during the Indian campaign. Alexander solved Alpha Iteration, and a currently unnamed source in Alexander's marching party recounts the incident:
…It was as if Alexander was struck in the face by a rock from a sling as he opened the box, which gave a horrendous clicking noise as it opened, like a beetle or a creation of Hephaestus. He fell to the ground, stunned, and stayed there as the box closed of its own accord; I caught a glimpse of the interior, and saw it empty.
He soon stood, and called for a scroll, and a writing utensil. These were given to him, and he began scribbling down a diagram of some form, which he inscribed as "The Tomb of Basileus33 Alexander the Great". He instructed to a messenger to send the box, and the scroll, to Alexandria, and to give it to his faithful general Ptolemy…34.
The last known location of Alpha Iteration was in the Library of Alexandria. Information recovered from SCP Objects related to the Library of Alexandria indicate that Alpha Iteration was simply a display piece contained in the Library's museum, not to be opened for any reason.
However, a scholar at the Library removed Alpha Iteration to diagram it, and solved it while doing so; the result [DATA EXPUNGED], which led to a vast increase in productivity at the Library.
Alpha Iteration was destroyed in the sack of Alexandria by Julius Caesar in 48 BCE; however, the library itself was not destroyed as a result. One of the only remaining documents from the Library, recovered by the Horizon Initiative in 2002 at Area of Interest-251, state that "After the box was gone, the writing got wrong". The significance of this is unclear; for further details, see document 001α-1658.
Beta Iteration
Currently, Beta Iteration has the least information available about it; however, a few facts are known about it.
- Beta Iteration was an item made out of ivory "a large haired creature", possibly indicating a specimen of Mammuthus primigenius (wooly mammoth); however, considering the fact that Beta Iteration was discovered approximately 7,000 years after the final wooly mammoth went extinct, this is considered unlikely.
- Beta Iteration's first known location was in North America, in what is now British Columbia, Canada.
- The only records of Beta Iteration's existence are oral tradition passed down through the peoples Tsilhqot'in First Nation. Due to the relative isolation and small size of the nation, informational containment procedures have been deemed unnecessary.
- Beta Iteration was destroyed for unknown reasons; some accounts say it was to appease an angered deity, others say it was used to slay a large animal.
Addendum to Beta Iteration: A 2009 archeological dig sponsored by the University of British Columbia discovered what was described as a "Tower of Hanoi" puzzle, with rings and pegs carved from mammoth ivory, noted to have been partially burned and destroyed by crushing. The artifact was determined to have been almost 2000 years old by carbon dating, despite the fact that the Tower of Hanoi puzzle was conceived by French mathematician Édouard Lucas in 1883.
The item is currently in containment at Site 25, and information about it has been suppressed under OOPART Protocol 15. As of yet, no anomalous properties have been displayed in testing.
Gamma Iteration
Delta Iteration
Epsilon Iteration
Zeta Iteration
Zeta Iteration was a peg solitaire game that has had only two know solvers. Zeta Iteration was known to exist from at least 1872 to 1917; however, its whereabouts during this time are largely unknown.
The first known solver of Zeta Iteration was ████████ █████████, a scientist from London, England who was collecting soil samples near Baikal Lake, Siberia when he discovered Zeta Iteration in a curiosity shop in the area. █████████ solved Zeta Iteration shortly after, and recorded the following in his journal:
Had a ghastly dream last night. I dreamt that all the horrors and wonders of the universe were converging on one place, somewhere in the Mojave desert. Twelve others stood there, converging on the same place, all calling my name.
I feel… drawn to this place, somehow. I even dreamt the exact coordinates. They are [DATA EXPUNGED]. I will travel through Moscow, and then make my way back to London and character a boat over to there. Deeds shall come along, of course.35.
Further information about ████████ █████████ in regards to Zeta Iteration is classified.
Eta Iteration
Eta Iteration was a series of variable crossword puzzles printed from 1929 to 1984. It is currently unknown how many times Eta Iteration was successfully solved, but it is believed to be in upwards of 2000 times.
All Eta Iteration instances are identical to non-anomalous crossword puzzles printed in the same way, with the exception of a all clues being changed to be more difficult, but giving the same word as a result. For example, SCP-001η-258 had 28 down's clue changed from "People you see on the road" to "Much like Doug's Guide"; the answer, in both cases, was "Hitchhiker".
Notably, SCP-001η-081 was printed in all copies of the Daily Telegraph on January 13th, 1942 as a covert recruitment tool for [DATA EXPUNGED]. All instances of the puzzle were anomalous, and individuals were challenged to solve it within 12 minutes. Individuals that did were invited to [DATA EXPUNGED].
Unsolved puzzles of the Eta Iteration have not retained anomalous properties following the creation of Theta Iteration.
Theta Iteration
The current iteration of SCP-001, Theta Iteration is a viral program that is transmitted via e-mail attachment from the address whatsinthebox@[REDACTED]. When on a computer, Theta Iteration forcibly takes over the system's OS, creating a new partition on the computer that is password locked. The regular functions of the computer may still be used, but the Theta Iteration partition uses encryption similar to the two unsolved Beale ciphers, making it impossible to solve at this time using traditional decryption methods.
The "puzzle" of iteration Theta takes the form of a password hint; in computers created before the creation of computers having the functionality of remembering set password hints, the "puzzle" will appear on a piece of paper in the handwriting of the subject attempting to solve it. Examples of password hints in the past have included:
- SCP-001θ-21:A human who looks like a disk.36
- SCP-001θ-25:Flying person.
- SCP-001θ-35: I am sorry, Mr. Y. You are not long for this world. What is your dream?
- SCP-001θ-43: Poincaré meets Brachiosaurus meets Olmstead and Vaux.
- SCP-001θ-51:The stream you will name your company after.
- SCP-001θ-85: The names of your future sons. All three of them.
The current password hint for the Theta Iteration (SCP-001θ-86) is classified.

UIU File 1958-092: Codename: Edison
Summary: Subject is deceased, no body remaining. Five FBI operatives killed in confrontation with subject's allies at Thorston, Kentucky. All members of opposing force deceased, all technology confiscated and placed into storage.
Name: Dr. Ainsley Kerrigan
Irregularity Cross-reference: Electrical, Grassroots, Human, Soviet
Physical Description: Prior to death, Ainsley Kerrigan was Caucasian male, last seen wearing a modified combat armor through the window of the Thorston Farm House.
| Sex | Height | Weight/Build | Race | Hair | Eyes | Identifying Attributes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Male | 5'11 | Unknown; Slender build | Caucasian | Brown | Green | Obliterated Cellular Structure, Single Golden Dental Crown |
Capabilities: No inherently unusual capabilities; however, Kerrigan was a skilled electrician and engineer, and built technology classified as a CART. For further details, see Evidence.
Purpose/Motive: Kerrigan was a Soviet operative who formed the terrorist organization Grassroots, a Socialist group dedicated to toppling the United States Government using abnormal means, usually involving the manipulation of electricity. Kerrigan defected from [Blackbox goes here] along with several other scientists that made up the first Grassroots cell.
Modus Operandi: Created and harnessed technology capable of manipulating electrical currents, up to and including causing lightning strikes in a targeted area and unleashing "Electro-Magnetic Pulses" at an International Business Machines facility in [Blackbox goes here]
Behavior: (How does it act while doing it?)
A: Ten (10) backpack-like devices: weapons used by Grassroots members, each of which was created at least in part by Kerrigan. Devices are capable of releasing rays of electricity at a target; however, doing so drains energy of the individual using it.
B: Burn mark: A burn mark vaguely in the shape of a human being, found in a room that Kerrigan was believed to be occupying at the time. Kerrigan is believed to have committed suicide using a possibly nuclear device, as an agent on-scene noted the burn mark resembled a "Hiroshima Shadow".
C: Pay Slip for work on [Blackbox Goes here]: A pay slip given to Kerrigan for his work on [Blackbox goes here], which was found framed in a room near where Exhibit B was found. The words "This will all be worth it" were written on the back.
