Item #: SCP-4353

Object Class: Euclid

Special containment procedures:
Due to its anomalous properties - SCP-4353 is NOT to be moved from the field of which it resides.Therefore, Area-4353A has been built around the area in question and personnel within the site are to respect the 10m fenced off barrier that separates said field from the facility. MTF Epsilon-6 "Village Idiots" are to guard the priority area every hour of the day, with shift changes every couple of hours. Epsilon-6 are to also scour the region daily for any other instances of SCP-4353 within the area, and MTF Theta-4 "Gardeners" are to hold the responsibility of recovering any casualties from the field and maintaining the field's boundaries when SCP-4353 lies dormant.
At certain hours of the day, for each day of the week SCP-4353 is to be monitored closely for any anomalous happenings, or breaching of its containment area's fence (See Description). Should the breach of its boundary occur, personnel are to swiftly evacuate the site and retreat to a safe area, referred to as 'the green quadrant', roughly 50 meters away from the site, and MTF Theta-4 are to be dispatched to the site immediately. It must also be understood that should SCP-4353's field run out of space (see Addendum 4353-02), the area is to be sealed off promptly before SCP-4353 becomes active, so the boundary may be expanded during the hours that SCP-4353 is dormant, to ensure that a full breach does not occur.

Description:
SCP-4353 is understood to be a large, bipedal entity - standing roughly 2 metres and 55 centimetres in height, though this is a temporary height, and comprised of what appears to be a strange mixture of orange corn and and a yellowish, starchy substance - kinds of which have never been seen before, and it is still inconclusive as to what SCP-4353's composition is, though tests are ongoing to determine it. SCP-4353 does have an anatomical structure - including a body, limbs and a long appendage protruding from its body believed to be its head, which appears to be completely comprised of the corn-like material. SCP-4353 never leaves its cornfield of which it first appeared, and has stayed within it since its first discovery by members of the public. If left alone, the creature seems completely docile and will never actively attempt to attack personnel unprovoked.4353 spends certain hours of the day completely dormant, hidden in the tall grass and will only awaken at certain hours of the day to follow a routine and wander the cornfield - every day. Below is a list compiling the daily 'schedule' for SCP-4353.

+See log 4353-A(Level 3/4353 required)

It is understood that SCP-4353 possesses the capabilities of growing these corn-like objects by simply walking across the soil of the cornfield, as well as expanding the field in the process. SCP-4353 will move a lot quicker as the field grows, perhaps to complete the entire field before its 'scheduled' time. SCP-4353's secondary anomalous traits occur when any personnel who attempts to interact with either SCP-4353 or the cornfield itself while SCP-4353 is active. Should this occur, SCP-4353 will become extremely hostile and halt his procedure to turn towards the victim, at which point the victim will begin feeling serious burning sensations in the stomach and the chest. The orange, corn-like objects will then grow out of the body over a period of 2 hours, as well as any human orifice,although it does not damage the body in any way,it simply leaves those affected incapacitated on the ground, implying that SCP-4353 does not intend to kill any trespassers, just prevent them from interfering with its procedure and its crops, analysis on those recovered from the field have shown these objects cannot be pulled from the body once they have fully germinated after 2 hours.
It is also understood that SCP-4353 will breach its fenced area if the field runs out of available space to grow these 'crops' - as it seems unaware of the field's boundaries, although it is understood that once the fencing is breached though, the field does not continue indefinitely, with the field only carrying on for an extra 40 meters from its original point after the fence was broken.

Addendum 4353-01: Discovery
The cornfield of which SCP-4353 is located is in, █████, Nebraska, and SCP-4353 was discovered on the 15/4/20██. A pair of backpackers noticed the large figure going about its regular routine when they decided to approach to inspect on what it was. Both backpackers set foot on the cornfield and immediately SCP-4353 paused his movements, before turning to face them. The backpackers were quickly exposed to SCP-4353's anomalous effects, with corn-like objects growing out of their bodies after approximately 15 seconds upon entering the field. The pair were both recovered from the site though remain comatose. The size of the field at this time was approximately 1.2 square meters and SCP-4353 itself stood at a height of approximately 2 meters and 30 centimeters.

Addendum 4353-02:
Approximately 4 weeks after Area-4353A was constructed the cornfield spanned roughy 3 square meters, and had reached its boundary. The following day SCP-4353 made its way across the last remaining soil, and the grass that sprouted broke through the fence. Mobile Task Force Theta-4 immediately dispatched to temporarily seal off the area during SCP-4353's dormancy period before SCP-4353 walked across it and more grass appeared, so a new fencing boundary could be constructed around 80 metres from where it was destroyed. SCP-4353 has grown by roughly 25cm since first being contained.
