Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept locked inside an iron box with copper wrapped around the inside of said box. It must be no larger than 25x25x25 cm, with no light entering or leaving the box. Anyone who gets within 5 meters of the box without permission from a Class A personnel, or who comes in contact with any light or radio waves that may leave the box, must be taken in for mental evaluation while being monitored by a medical professional.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a white, annelid like creature with violet eyes, found in the rainforest known as the ████████ ███████. While it itself does not pose as a direct threat to any creature around it, if it comes into an area of high-importance (such as a government facility) it may take control of an official and become much harder to contain, as well as posing a great threat to society. It is approximately 0.5 meters tall and has blue spikes along its back. It has the ability to telepathically communicate with any creature around it in a 5 meter radius, notably using radio waves, and can read all thoughts of anyone it communicates with. If within the proper distance, (5 centimetres, based on tests), it attacks the victim through a tendril on its head, piercing the skin and infecting their nervous system, allowing total control of the victim to SCP-XXXX. It can then make the host any range of emotions, give a resistance to pain, as well as mechanically speak with those around it. Any physical victim of SCP-XXXX's infection is dead as soon as infected. Currently, the only known way to tell if someone is infected is by a swollen ear lobe.

Addendum: After a full communication between an infected person with Dr. ████ (wearing a specially made suit, where the inner segment was lined with copper and a camera and audio feed were on the inside to show him what was around), it is shown SCP-XXXX is very intelligent, and doesn't wish (based on what it said) to harm others, but instead wants to observe. This has yet to be confirmed.

Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Dr. ████
Foreword: The interview took place in ███ where the interviewer had worn fully
protective gear to combat SCP-XXXX's known abilities, as to ensure no tampering would take place. SCP-2902 has taken control over a willing subject for the sake of this interview.
<Begin Log>
Dr. ████: Hello, SCP-XXXX. Please, tell me, what is your goal?
SCP-XXXX: My name is [REDACTED], but I suppose my goal would be to make peace with as many species as possible.
Dr.: Well, in that case, why?
SCP: I would like to be able to observe them all, up close, on a more personal level to see how they act, unchanged by other presences.
Dr.: So, you'd rather be a form of Scientist?
SCP: You can call it that.
Dr.: Why do you take control of different organisms?
SCP: Because it allows me to act as one with the fellow species, and calms down those of said species.
Dr.: Lastly, are you the only one of your species? Are there more of your kind?
SCP: If you'll excuse me, I'd rather not answer.
Dr.: Very well.
