Since event 3734/12, SCP-XXXX-2 has appeared in a Foundation Senior Research uniform and labcoat, and has been stated to have a general resemblance to various current and past Site Directors
SCP-3734-2 has been measured to have Hume levels in the [REDACTED] range, and is assumed to be a class [EXPUNGED] reality bender, though it does not engage in behaviours outside of those discussed in this and attached documents.
Demanifestation events occur if a single individual consumes more than three cups of tea in a single sitting.
Recordings and post-incident interviews indicate that SCP-XXXX-2 manifests, and takes the hand of the individual who has consumed a third cup of SCP-XXXX-1, causing that individual to disappear. If more than a single consuming individual is present, SCP-XXXX-2 then moves to the next individual who has consumed at least three cups of SCP-XXXX-1, and so on, demanifesting with the last individual. SCP-XXXX-2 moves by order of initial consumption of SCP-XXXX-1, but does not maintain this behaviour on individuals over multiple 'sittings'.
After demanifestation of an individual, and all information about them becomes completely antimemetic for the duration of their disappearance. This effect disappears after remanifestation.
Approximately %34 percent of those individuals remanifest after 3 days, with that number raising to %100 by 40 days. Remanifested individuals recovered offsite tend to reappear in a place they find calming, though most remanifest in SCP-3734’s containment room.
Recovered individuals are found universally found to be free of any personality disorders, antisocial tendencies, and mental illness beyond SCP-3734’s cognitohazardous effects. Additionally, though test subjects are generally appropriately malnourished on return based on length of demanifestation, all have been in otherwise good health, and well hydrated.
All D-Class individuals tested since event XXXX/12 that have remanifested outside of Foundation custody have willingly and promptly returned to Site-██ when able. Several have actively assisted in their reacquisition from GOIs hostile to Foundation interests. Post incident interviews have shown that these D-Class have, regardless of initial disposition, a strong sense of loyalty to figures of Foundation authority. Additionally, a strong compulsion to obey instructions and work for the “Greater Good” has been observed.
Item #:XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Object Threat: White
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be stored in a standard keycard locked room in Low-Value Item storage area of Site-██. Seven non-anomalous chairs have been reallocated from employee lounges onsite, and should be replaced every six months under standard cover story "Replacing Worn-Out Furniture". A single standard Foundation issue 'coffee table' has also been obtained onsite for the purposes limiting SCP-3734 activation events. In addition, at no point should the picture depicting SCP-3734-2 be removed from the wall of the room, nor any additional items hung on the walls.
Currently, Procedure XXXX-SILVERSPOON has been determined to be the best way of preventing manifestation of SCP-3734-2, or other SCP-3734 activation events. Instructions pertaining to are limited to authorized participating researchers, the current Site Administrator of Site-██, the Department of [REDACTED] Head, and members of MTF Kappa-3 “ Unlike Tea”
Description: SCP-XXXX is a complete a 18th century Russian tea set and samovar1. SCP-XXXX is composed non-anomalous, period appropriate material. Metal components are . Inside the storage drawer of the cart are six porcelain teacups, accompanying saucers, a small porcelain sugar bowl, and a lacquer teabox with “Stand on the edge of the abyss of despair and when you feel that it is beyond your strength, break off and have a cup of tea” written in Early Cyrillic2 characters on the underside of the lid.
Viewing SCP-XXXX causes an immediate cognitohazardous compulsion to make and consume SCP-XXXX-1 using all of SCP-XXXX's components.
Drinking SCP-XXXX-1 causes a memetic/antimemetic effect in the consumers and any observers,
The initial sip of each cup of tea induces a strong cognitohazardous compulsion to finish the cup. Experimenting with preventing the consumption of SCP-XXXX-1 once an individual has begun drinking a cup has always resulted in a manifestation of SCP-XXXX-2 if the cup is not finished within three (3) hours, followed quickly by a demanifestation event.
As SCP-XXXX-1 is consumed; the cognitohazardous, memetic, and antimemetic effect increases.
The immediate cognitohazardous effect results in increasing emotional detachment from an individual’s surroundings, personal concerns, plans, and regrets. While consuming a second cup of SCP-XXXX-1, these concerns gradually become impossible to actively and clearly recall. Additionally, those not consuming SCP-XXXX-1 will be unable to perceive these individuals, nor recall their presence. For this reason the timing of all testing is of vital importance to prevent accidental containment breaches or loss of Foundation assets.
Individuals consuming SCP-XXXX-1 together experience a memetic sense of familiarity and camaraderie, perfectly recalling every interaction they have had, and viewing eachother in the best possible light. They remain normally perceptible to each other despite the antimemetic effect for as long as they continue to drink the tea. Reports after testing indicate that steadfast enemies have wept and begged for forgiveness, expressed inordinate gratitude for passing acts of kindness, and have otherwise felt a strong and persistent sense of peace and gratitude. This results in a memetic and cognitohazardous compulsion to share and spread the tea, resulting in increasing despair if they are unable to convince others to partake of SCP-XXXX-1
Consuming a third cup of SCP-XXXX-1 results in a manifestation of SCP-XXXX-2, and a demanifestation event.
SCP-XXXX-2 is an anomalous humanoid that has not been observed outside of manifestation events. Prior to the manifestation event 3734/12 on ██/██/2011 SCP-3734-2 was described as grandfatherly, kind, and cheerful, though appearance of facial features, including details like eye color, seems to vary based on the individual observing. SCP-3734-2’s physical appearance has been consistently described as an old man with a “great-big beard” and appropriate cassock and apron for a Great Schema monk.
Additional Information: SCP-XXXX came to the attention of Foundation agents after reports of a miraculous tea from pilgrims to various pilgrims returning from Mount Athos.3 Several individuals were found to be completely recovered from psychological and neurobiological disorders considered untreatable at the time.
SCP-XXXX was recovered from St. Panteleimon’s Monastery by MTF Psi-3 “God Botherers” in 1968 under the cover of an accidental fire in the west wing of the building. Though the timing is suspicious, MTF Psi-3 afteraction reports uniformly claim the fire was spontaneous and without apparent cause.
Cross-testing with hostile humanoid SCPs is in consideration
