Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: Instances of SCP-XXXX are to be contained in sound-reinforced Class-III humanoid containment cells. Due to the cognitohazardous properties of the vocalizations produced by SCP-XXXX all personnel entering the containment wing are required to wear Class 4 hearing protection supplied at the entrance. Failure to do so will result in immediate detainment. In case of personnel exhibiting signs of differing or lessened cognition, or in case of aggression towards specific members of the personnel, affected personnel are to be subdued with ranged tranquilizers. Staff members exhibiting signs of SCP-XXXX-2 are to be contained immediately by staff outfitted with full Level A Hazardous Materials protection fitted with SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus).

Observation sites have been set up across Europe to locate any new instances of SCP-XXXX. MTF Eta-11 ("Savage Beasts") is tasked with securing instances and relocating them to Site-██.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a species of humanoid bipedal entities resembling, but with significant biological deviations from, homo sapiens. SCP-XXXX in height range from 0.8 m to 1.5 m when standing upright. The epidermis of SCP-XXXX is translucent and reveals dark, blackish veins. All recovered instances appear to be completely genderless and possess no reproductive organs. However, it has been discovered due to prolonged observation in natural habitat that [DATA REDACTED]. See Addendum XXXX-3. This will result in the formation of a new instance of SCP-XXXX within 2-3 weeks. Further experimentation into the nature of the process has been disapproved by the Ethics Committee.

The mouth of SCP-XXXX contains no teeth, breaking down the prey it consumes with heavily acidic stomach fluids. SCP-XXXX is capable of distending its esophagus and stomach to accomodate prey up to three times its own physical size.

SCP-XXXX possesses the ability to inject a chemical compound (henceforth SCP-XXXX-1) using a prehensile, tongue-like organ hidden within a fold in the lower section of the mouth. Upon contact with tissue, SCP-XXXX will cause rapid changes to the genetic cell structure. Any live subject contaminated by SCP-XXXX-1 will henceforth be referred to as SCP-XXXX-2.

In appearance, SCP-XXXX-2 does not experience any change after SCP-XXXX-1 contamination. However, instances of SCP-XXXX-2 all excrete a pheromone (SCP-XXXX-3) which has appeared to have repulsive memetic properties on other members of the species which SCP-XXXX-2 belongs to, including:

  • Repulsive qualities being applied to SCP-XXXX-2
  • Significantly heightened feelings of doubt and/or paranoia towards SCP-XXXX-2
  • Lack of empathy for SCP-XXXX-2
  • Unchecked aggression towards SCP-XXXX-2

In all cases, SCP-XXXX-2 will suffer attempts to isolate them from communities, in several cases culminating in the death of SCP-XXXX-2. Subsequently, SCP-XXXX will move to consume the corpse of SCP-XXXX if deceased. If not, SCP-XXXX will lure SCP-XXXX-2 towards itself with the use of vocalizations.
These vocalizations cause the subject to enter a state similar to NREM sleep, or slow-wave sleep, including significantly heightened levels of the chemicals acetylcholine, norepinephrine, serotonin, histamine, and orexin, as well as a lowered heartrate, cardiac pressure, cardiac output, arterial pressure, and breathing rate. Once the subject is in a defenseless positon, SCP-XXXX will attempt to consume the entirety of the subject. Subjects still conscious do not display distress at any point during this process. The vocalizations of SCP-XXXX have been deemed a cognitohazard and as such extreme care is to be exhibited when engaging specimens.
