Item #: SCP-X
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: Foundation webcrawlers are to routinely search social media, any websites with a focus on religion, or other potential online vectors for mentions of SCP-X-1. Such instances are to be logged, traced back to their source, and deleted. If any instances of SCP-X-2 are identified, they are to be brought into Foundation custody until the effects of SCP-X-1 have passed. All personnel working on SCP-X are to be screened to avoid possible breaches of containment.
Description: SCP-X-1 is the designation given to a belief system that, when practiced for exactly seven days, will lead to the sudden disappearance of the individual1 practicing it. SCP-X-1 is a monotheistic religion focusing on an unnamed deity that is often referred to as Esurientes2 by SCP-X-2. SCP-X-1 has very few restrictions, only barring the consumption of any inedible or toxic items, and seemingly promoting a life of indulgence. While SCP-X-1 has been documented in several areas around the world, it seems to be mainly concentrated in North America. The spread of SCP-X-1 appears to be entirely by word of mouth, lacking any anomalous memetic components.
SCP-X-2 usually have little in common with each other, varying in age, race, and economic status. Individuals will often congregate in areas associated with the consumption of food, typically restaurants, to discuss matters involving their personal lives and desires, as well as SCP-X-3. Meetings in these areas also typically involve excessive eating of meals and leaving soon after finishing. SCP-X-2 all appear to follow SCP-X-1 out of their free will and seem fully aware of the result of what belief of SCP-X-1 will do to them. In addition, all SCP-X-2 seem to actively want to experience the effects of SCP-X-1. Roughly 3.5% of SCP-X-2 do not disappear after a week following SCP-X-1. These individuals are rejected by the rest of SCP-X-2 and associating with them is seen as taboo. Food eaten by SCP-X-2 varies, with some only eating food high in sugar and others only eating meat.
SCP-X-3 is typically described and shown in pieces of art as having inconsistent height, ranging from the size of other humans and being the size of adjacent mountains, having reddish-gray skin, and having a mouth that takes up most of its face. No historical documentation involving SCP-X-3 appears to exist. All SCP-X-2 believe that the disappearance caused by SCP-X-1 is actually them being consumed by SCP-X-3. As devices used for the purpose of tracking SCP-X-2 fail when they disappear, it has been impossible to verify this claim.
Addendum X-01: Interview with SCP-X-2-82.
Interviewed: SCP-X-2-82 (Nathaniel Woodward)
Interviewer: Dr. Alan Omnia
Foreword: SCP-X-2-82 was discovered when multiple videos were found on the internet showing him discussing SCP-X-1 with several other unidentified SCP-X-2 instances. All videos were taken down and SCP-X-2-82 was tracked down and brought into Foundation custody for an interview.
<Begin Log>
Dr. Omnia: Hello, Mr. Woodward, I do hope you are willing to answer my questions. It will help us get this done quickly. Do you need anything, a water?
SCP-X-2-82: Thanks you, but I'm good. I am perfectly fine talking about my faith, if I'm correct in assuming that that's what's this all about? Oh, and feel free to just call me Nate.
Dr. Omnia: Fine then, Nate, yes, you are indeed correct. My first question is why would you practice a religion that would eventually lead to you being "consumed" as others refer to it?
SCP-X-2-82: Ah, it's simple really, by being eaten, we become one with our god, our bodies becoming nutrients to fuel it and our souls to join with it later. It's simply the best afterlife I can imagine.
Dr. Omnia: I see, and do you know why the week before? Why not just "consume" you when you begin worshipping him?
SCP-X-2-82: Well, there is a practice where, before you kill an animal you treat it well, and it tastes better when you eat it. I believe that by giving us that week, we are given the opportunity to find happiness, which would then make us more palatable.
Dr. Omnia: Interesting theory, but how would knowing that you're about to be eaten by your god help you become happier?
SCP-X-2-82: Well, besides the knowledge you have become fuel for a god, knowing that you will soon be gone allows you to take your time and enjoy life to its fullest for that week. I knew someone, a father, his daughter was sick with some illness I can't remember the name of, maybe cancer? She was going to die, but they didn't know when, but with our faith, they knew exactly how much time they had together. What would have been a painful, slow, and meaningless death became peaceful, instant, and with purpose. It was beautiful.
Dr. Omnia: I think I understand, you believe that was for the best?
SCP-X-2-82: Of course, it gave the two comfort and purpose, what else could they ask for?
Dr. Omnia: I see, now, it seems that some of your believers don't actually vanish? Do you happen to know why?
SCP-X-2-82: Simply put, they don't taste good, they are with sin, they are inedible. You don't eat rotten food do you?
Dr. Omnia: Hm, I suppose not. Can you explain why they are avoided by the others?
SCP-X-2-82: Those that cannot feed our god are heavily stigmatized. They are believed to be traitors, trying to poison our god. I however view them with pity, how terrible, that they cannot become one with Esurientes.
Dr. Omnia: I suppose that would feel horrible.
SCP-X-2-82: Indeed.
Dr. Omnia: Could you explain why your god needs to consume you? Was it always like that?
SCP-X-2-82: Long ago it allowed us to make small sacrifices, but we became paranoid, we thought that we were only loved for what we would give to it. We told it that if it truly loved us, we wouldn't need to give it sacrifices. It obliged, letting us go without sacrificing, but it grew thinner and thinner, its bones growing brittle, its muscles atrophying. Yet, we would offer it nothing in return for its love.
SCP-X-2-82: It grew ravenous, its required sacrifices and livestock could no longer satiate it. It gave us two options, Cease worship of it and leave or stay and sacrifice yourself to become one with it. Many left but those that stayed spread its message of love and the freeing process it would offer. Those who listened would also join and spread the word, and so it grew.
Dr. Omnia: That's an interesting story, that about wraps up the interview, I do have one more question though, how have you spent your week of freedom?
SCP-X-2-82: Ah, before now, I worked an office job, it left me tired and hating my life. I couldn't risk quitting to find a better job, my wife had just given birth, and I was the only source of income. It was dreadful. But, now I no longer have to shoulder that burden. I am freed
Dr. Omnia: Leaving your family to fend for themselves, isn't that a bit selfish?
SCP-X-2-82: I don't believe so, what are their two finite lives in comparison to eternal joy with my god?

Closing Statement: Roughly two hours after the conclusion of the interview SCP-X-2-82 suddenly vanished, this is assumed to be due to the effect of SCP-X-1.
