Clearance Level 3: Clearance
Secondary Class: uncontained
Disruption Class: #/amida
Special Containment Procedures: Individuals suspected of being SCP-XXXX or SCP-XXXX-1 instances are to receive an enhanced polygraph. Confirmed instances are to be terminated immediately with extreme prejudice. All current, as of this revision, and new Foundation personnel are required to be tested by an enhanced polygraph to ensure they are not SCP-XXXX or SCP-XXXX-1 instances.
Description: SCP-XXXX is the designation given to the current "active" SCP-XXXX-1 instance. In this context, "active" refers to the current SCP-XXXX-1 instance capable of acting on the memories of the deceased SCP-XXXX instances. Research has concluded that there is only one SCP-XXXX instance at a given moment. SCP-XXXX will actively attempt to terminate, and in rare cases, neutralize, any anomalous object the SCP Foundation is aware of or is actively containing. To date, SCP-XXXX has not advertently terminated a non-anomalous human, however, SCP-XXXX's actions can result in unforeseeable consequences, such as termination. Due to the sheer quantity of SCP-XXXX instances which have existed, all SCP-XXXX instances are extremely knowledgeable on nearly all subjects.
SCP-XXXX-1 is the designation given to individuals who are given the memories of all deceased SCP-XXXX instances. SCP-XXXX-1 instances will exhibit no unusual behaviors, however, in the event of SCP-XXXX's termination, all SCP-XXXX-1 instances will receive the memories of the recently deceased SCP-XXXX instance, and a random SCP-XXXX-1 instance will become the new SCP-XXXX instance.
It is currently unknown how individuals obtain the memories of the deceased SCP-XXXX instances, nor is it known when these memories are originally obtained. It is estimated that 1 out of 10,000, or 0.0001%, people are SCP-XXXX-1 instances.
Discovery: SCP-XXXX was originally discovered outside Site-98 in Glasgow, Scotland. They claimed to be a Global Occult Coalition (GOC) defector, and Foundation agents embedded in the GOC were able to confirm this. SCP-XXXX was, after standard testing of their capabilities, recruited as a member of Mobile Task Force (MTF) Iota-10 "Damn Feds" embedded within the Police Service of Scotland.
One month following their recruitment, they took part in a Police Service of Scotland sanctioned raid on an apartment room said to contain illicit drugs and weaponry, the latter of which was rumored to be anomalous, owned by the Thompson crime family. Following the termination of four gangsters, several kilograms of cocaine were located, as well as a suppressed pistol which, when fired, would produce no recoil. Upon confirmation of its anomalous properties, SCP-XXXX requested to examine the firearm. When given, SCP-XXXX proceeded to shoot the anomaly repeatedly with their other firearm, destroying it. SCP-XXXX subsequently self terminated.
SCP-XXXX re-manifested in Mendoza, Argentina. Upon reaching Site-413, they claimed to be a GOC defector once again. Due to the event's date in relation to the previously mentioned events, Site Director Ramono ordered an enhanced polygraph. Upon the procedure's completion, Interrogator Delgado confirmed that SCP-XXXX was in fact the same individual who previously joined the Foundation at Site-98. SCP-XXXX was subsequently terminated and base containment procedures were enacted.
Notable SCP-XXXX Instances: Note several instances have been removed for brevity. Please contact the RAISA by dialing 8124 on your SCiPNet intercom to view all notable SCP-XXXX instances.
Name: Roman Pound
Noteworthy Trait(s): GOC deserter; Not an SCP-XXXX instance, instead an SCP-XXXX-1 instance.
Notable Actions Taken: Attempted to join the Foundation, however, due to the similarity to SCP-XXXX's claim, it was given an enhanced polygraph, which concluded it was an SCP-XXXX instance. Due to its non-hostility, it was placed in containment. It later self terminated, most likely due to genuinely becoming an SCP-XXXX instance.
Additional Notes: Further tests have confirmed that the memories of this anomaly remain in the affected populace for some time prior to becoming "active". Instances are now classified as SCP-XXXX-1. Containment of SCP-XXXX or SCP-XXXX-1 has been abandoned indefinitely as SCP-XXXX instances will inevitably self terminate.
Name: Helen Sinclair
Noteworthy Trait(s): SCP Foundation Anti-Memetisist.
Notable Actions Taken: Termination of two anti-memetic anomalies prior to termination.
Additional Notes: All current and future Foundation employees are to be given an enhanced polygraph to ensure they are not SCP-XXXX or SCP-XXXX-1 instances.
Name: Cassandra Hansen
Noteworthy Trait(s): United States Special Forces Member.
Notable Actions Taken: Recruited into the Foundation due to leadership capabilities, however, was terminated upon confirmation of being an SCP-XXXX instance via required enhanced polygraph
Additional Notes: None.
Name: [REDACTED]
Noteworthy Trait(s): Ethics Committee chairman, later promoted to O5-1.
Notable Actions Taken: Though given an enhanced polygraph, nothing was detected. This is most likely due to its .9% failure rate. Terminated 19 anomalies prior to reexamination and termination.
Additional Notes: Research to improve the enhanced polygraph has been expedited.
SCP-XXXX instances terminated: 391
Total anomalies terminated/neutralized by SCP-XXXX instances: 102
Researcher Note: SCP-XXXX appears to have no interest in, and appears to be actively against, lifting the veil the Foundation has placed over the anomalous world. Further research is required to understand why this is.
Termination: The following mandate was put in front of the Ethics Committee for approval:
DECOMMISSIONING DEPARTMENT TERMINATION REQUEST
ITEM TO BE TERMINATED: SCP-XXXX
REASON FOR TERMINATION: Not only does SCP-XXXX put our contained anomalies at risk, they pose a risk to the veil as well. Though the latter may be dismissed through further research, the former still stands. Though it may prove valuable to study it, due to the number of instances that have existed, it has likely gained such a vast amount of knowledge, containment is likely impossible.
RECOMMENDED TERMINATION METHOD: A memetic kill agent. Following SCP-XXXX's termination, the agent would be put into the minds of all SCP-XXXX-1 instances, terminating them as well. Cover story Chi-9 will be needed to minimize public suspicion, as well as cover story Xi-12 in the event further SCP-XXXX instances manifest.

Clearance Level 3: Clearance
Secondary Class: thaumiel
Special Containment Procedures: In accordance with United Nations Secret Council Investigation #0621, SCP-XXXX is now under the ownership of the Foundation, though the United Nations Secret Council is still required to approve any changes to the current arrangement. SCP-XXXX's assignment within the Foundation will be explained further in this document. Should an SCP-XXXX instance be terminated, Protocol Takeshi-21 is to be enacted.
Description: SCP-XXXX is the designation given to the current "active" SCP-XXXX-1 instance. SCP-XXXX has confirmed there is only one instance of it at a given time, as well as confirming that memories of the previous deceased instances are obtained upon birth. Due to the sheer quantity of SCP-XXXX instances which have existed, all SCP-XXXX instances are extremely knowledgeable on nearly all subjects. SCP-XXXX is currently in the process of learning about:
- Reality Benders
- Memetic Kill Agents
- Dentistry
- Anomalous Buildings
- Forgery

| DENIED BY ORDER OF THE UNITED NATIONS SECRET COUNCIL |
United Nations Secret Council Intervention: Hours following the above Decommissioning Department proposal's approval, the United Nations Secret Council revealed they had been conducting an intercompany investigation regarding SCP-XXXX and overruled the Ethics Committee's approval of the above proposal. They sent the following mandate to the Foundation, as well as the GOC:
UNITED NATIONS SECRET COUNCIL INVESTIGATION #0621
INVESTIGATIVE LEAD: Michael "Died Eye" Orwell
INVESTIGATION SUBJECT: Project Photon-6 (Global Occult Coalition), SCP-XXXX (SCP Foundation), Subject-621 (United Nations Secret Council)
INFORMATION GATHERED: Subject-621 is the designation given to the current "active" individual with the memories of all previous deceased Subject-621 instances. "Active" refers to the ability to act upon the memories the individual has been given. An individual has a ~0.0001% chance to receive Subject-621 via anomalous means. These memories are given at birth, as confirmed by the first Subject-621 instance. Though only one individual may act on this information, the presence of this information can still be detected. Subject-621 was purposefully created by the Global Occult Coalition, which is in stark contrast to their mission, for the purpose of sabotaging the SCP Foundation by terminating anomalous objects within their possession.
Subject-621 was created over the course of several months and went through several forms until it reached its current iteration. The current iteration began with one Mr. Shi Da of Chinese descent and origin. Mr. Da was previously a highly trained Global Occult Coalition operative trained in espionage, among other things, however has since learned a great deal about nearly all subjects.
ACTIONS TAKEN: The United Nations Secret Council has noticed a long history of hostility between the SCP Foundation and the Global Occult Coalition, and as such deemed it necessary to, as of March 11th, 2049, prohibit all further hostility between the Global Occult Coalition and the SCP Foundation. Following a discussion between the United Nations Secret Council, O5-1 through O5-13, and D.C. al Fine, the United Nations Secret Council has determined the following recuperations are to be given:
FROM THE SCP FOUNDATION TO THE GLOBAL OCCULT COALITION:
- EUR 1.4 billion (currency arbitrary; similar values in other currencies accepted)
- Three armored vehicles (type unspecified)
- 17 high-caliber long-distance rifles
- Remaining items sent to SCP Foundation director of provisions for brevity
FROM THE GLOBAL OCCULT COALITION TO THE SCP FOUNDATION:
- Nine sets of anomalous humanoid containment furnishings
- Construction costs of 13 new anomalous item lockers
- Subject-621
ALL CHANGES LISTED IN THIS DOCUMENT ARE EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
To keep the blind from opening their eyes,
one must become the blindfold.
—Fenenko Vikentiy Dmitrievich, Founder, United Nations Secret Council
The O5 Council believes that due to SCP-XXXX's capabilities and knowledge, they could prove a very valuable asset. Though Foundation loyalty may need to be built upon heavily, due to their previous employment at the GOC, they pose a minimal risk to the veil.

Psychological Profile Summary (2049):
Gender identity and sexual orientation confusion
Thanatophobia related paranoia
Additional Information:
SCP-XXXX is highly talented in nearly all fields, and thus may be assigned to any role required at the time, as was explained by the position of multi-agent. Repeated switches between peoples has left SCP-XXXX uncertain of its gender and sexuality. It has also acquired a fear of death, which it has attributed to repeated terminations causing it to understand the various methods in which an individual can be terminated. This in turn causes paranoia due to SCP-XXXX believing it could be terminated at any given moment via several methods. Further information regarding SCP-XXXX's mental profile is classified level 3-P
Protocol Takeshi-21:
In the event an SCP-XXXX instance is terminated, the following plans are to be taken, in order, to re-establish contact:
Plan Takeshi-21-A
1. SCP-XXXX is to locate a device capable of sending long-distance transmissions (I.E. cellphone, instant-messaging software, postage).
2. SCP-XXXX is to use this device to send a message to cellphone number 000-000-0000, postage to Site-94, or other depending on the method of communication used.
3. Upon receiving the message, the Foundation will trace the message to SCP-XXXX's current location, and transport them to the nearest location while deploying a viable cover story.
Plan Takeshi-21-B
1. Assume no communication device is available.
2. SCP-XXXX is to locate the nearest Foundation location, and traverse the distance necessary to reach it.
Plan Takeshi-21-C
1. Assume no communication device is available.
2. Assume no Foundation locations are within a distance traversable within 48 hours.
3. SCP-XXXX is to locate an urban area and cause as large of a disturbance as possible.
4. The Foundation will investigate all major disturbances caused following SCP-XXXX's termination.
5. Upon location, the Foundation will transport SCP-XXXX to the nearest Foundation location while deploying a viable cover story.
Plan Takeshi-21-D
1. Assume no communication device is available.
2. Assume no Foundation locations are within a distance traversable within 48 hours.
3. Assume no sizable urban areas are within a distance traversable within 24 hours.
4. SCP-XXXX is to attempt any method it deems viable. Note that potential casualties and veil breaking methods are NOT allowed.
Plan Takeshi-21-E
1. Assume no communication device is available.
2. Assume no Foundation locations are within a distance traversable within 48 hours.
3. Assume no sizable urban areas are within a distance traversable within 24 hours.
4. Assume no method SCP-XXXX deems viable is available.
5. SCP-XXXX is to self terminate and the new SCP-XXXX instance is to reattempt the above plans.

SECURITY - ALL SITES
OVERVIEW - INCIDENT BALTIC-452
Incident Baltic-452 took place on 03/28/34 at 11:43 outside of Site-19 entrance C during a Pardon Contained Subjects (PCS) protest. For reference, the PCS movement is one whose goal to 'pardon' all humanoid anomalies, removing their 'crime' of being anomalous, allowing them to return to society as effectively baseline humans. The incident itself consisted of a light incendiary device (commonly referred to as a "Molotov cocktail") being thrown over the perimeter wall. The resulting fire was quickly put out with no casualties or injuries, bar Junior Researcher Sierra Smith suffering a mild panic attack. The PCS protesters quickly dispersed shortly following the initial ignition. Review of surveillance footage by Watson.AIC revealed Nolan Arthur, an avid PCS protester, to be the perpetrator. Following questioning, no ties to any anomalous activities were discovered, and they were shortly after given to local law enforcement.
OVERVIEW - PUBLIC OPINION
As of this document's creation, there have been a total of 1163 total protests internationally regarding the Foundation. These protests vary widely in motive, however, all have remained peaceful. That is, excluding Incident Baltic-452. Incident Baltic-452 was the first act of aggression against the foundation by the populace, and I do not believe it will be the last. The public simply does not approve of our existence. While we do have the Ethics Committee, we've run into the problem we had at its creation. While we attempt to be as ethically moral as possible, when compared to what others typically view as ethical, we appear as monsters.
While public opinion is commonly a laughable subject in regards to the Foundation, these are not common times. These protests pose issues to the Foundation at large, such as, but not limited to:
- Increased spending on-site security
- Further aggressive action directed toward the Foundation
- Increase employee stress levels
- Increased joining rates in anti-foundation groups of interest (GOIs)
- Increase difficulty in employing Foundation loyal employees
This should illustrate to a large degree that public opinion is a pressing matter which needs to be resolved sooner rather than later.
PROPOSAL - DEPARTMENT - NEW
Bettering our public opinion is of vital importance to the Foundation currently, and thus I propose the Public Relations Department (PR Dept.). While being assigned to the PR Dept. has been one of the longest running jokes among Foundation staff, this proposal is not one of them. The PR Dept. will aim to better public relations with the populous via several means. Along with my proposal for the creation of the PR Dept., I request expedited Ethics Committee reviewing of all PR Dept. proposal for the time being, as due to the time sensitive nature of our situation, I believe it would be in our best interest. I have compiled a list of necessary positions with my recommendations for which personnel should be chosen to fill these positions.

I chuckle. What started as a joke from even before we went public is becoming a reality. I check my coffee cup. All that's left is a few cold drops. It's probably been empty for hours but I just hadn't noticed. The lack of sleep starts to kick in, but that's not anything new. To get to where I am, the amount of all nighters I pulled make this feel at home to me. I check the time: 2:34 AM. I take a deep breath and open my SCiPNet Email:

Moment of truth. Once I press that send button, there will be nothing I can do. I shouldn't be anxious, I've sent personnel terminations and personal terminations, but this is what gets me? Maybe because this sounds so stupid even to think about. "The SCPR Department" ha, I've always liked those jokes. I take one more deep breath in and out. Send. I watch the little animation that plays: it's a revolver engraved with "Helen" that gets loaded with my email and fired away. I chuckle. I've always been confused about why the IT guys put that in, guess it's for people like me, at the point of sleeplessness where everything is funny.
I log out of SCiPNet and grab my bag. I go to open my door, but I end up running into it instead. I knew I should've gotten those caffeine pills. I leave my office and see my secretary, diligent as ever.
"Sick day, sir?" Briggs says without looking up.
"You know me too well," I reply. I've pulled so many all nighters as director, Briggs just cuts the chase at this point. I stumble-walk my way out of the site and get to my car. I was so tired, I barely noticed the person sitting in the back.
FOUNDATION SITE 19 DIRECTOR
FOUND IN OWN CAR, DEAD;
SUSPECT STILL AT LARGE
April 5, 2034
The SCP Foundation's Site 19's director, Kyle Jones, was found dead in their car at 3:23 yesterday morning. They appeared to have been shot in the back of the head, possibly from within their own car. Local law enforcement has been forbidden from investigating further as the Foundation has stated, "…[the investigation] is a matter of a highly sensitive nature, and the Foundation would rather not risk an information leak over the death of a senior officer," thus, information regarding it is limited, however, several theories exist relating the murder to the Pardon Contained Subjects (PCS) movement. If these theories are true, the incident just over a week ago, as well as this one, may show the end of the peacefulness of the PCS movement.

Item #: SCP-XXXX
Clearance: Level 5 (Top Secret)
Containment Class: Provisional: Safe → Keter
Disruption Class: 1/Dark
Risk Class: 1/Notice
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept inside of the mobile base of Provisional Task Force (PTF) Beta-1 ("Hidden from the Omniscient"). The current location of PTF Beta-1 is unknown and is to remain so for the foreseeable future. Any attempt to uncover the location of PTF Beta-1, even by its own agents, will result in disciplinary action.
Excluding active PTF Beta-1 agents, SCP-XXXX is not to be spoken, written, or otherwise referenced outside of a blackout conference room during scheduled meetings regarding it, which occur every 2 weeks. One copy of this document is to be kept within the designated conference room on an isolated server. Access to it requires a 15 digit code which has been evenly separated among:
- The Ethics Committee chairman
- The General of Mobile Task Force (MTF) Alpha-1 ("Red Right Hand")
- O5-1 through O5-13's personal secretaries
In the event of the termination of one of the aforementioned individuals, a new access code must be generated manually. Instructions for how to do so will be given in the event of the aforementioned termination.
Members of the O5 council are to be prevented from viewing this document. Any personnel with access to this document, with combat training or not, have been ordered to prevent this from occurring by any non-lethal means possible.
Description: SCP-XXXX is 100cm by 75cm portrait painting. The painting features a decapitated, albino head with no features except for a black "O5" in place of its face.
SCP-XXXX possesses two anomalous properties. The first property causes the viewer of the painting to see the decapitated head as slowing bleeding. Viewing SCP-XXXX for extended periods of time has been shown to cause a repulsion to viewing blood, however, this effect is very mild, and has been overcome by several personnel through force of will.
SCP-XXXX's second anomalous property manifests when an individual with an implanted Burman-Halford memetic kill agent becomes aware of SCP-XXXX's existence. Should this happen, the implant will activate. While it is unknown to what extent an individual with said implant could know of SCP-XXXX's existence, testing has been forbidden due to the nature of the usage of the implant.
Discovery: During a raid on a confirmed Chaos Insurgency (CI) base, SCP-XXXX was found in a memetic research laboratory with the following document attached:
DeCIRO Catalogue Number: SC-07/009-08/113
Document Type: Step Compilation
Dates Received: 04-07-2007 through 20-06-2008 (present)
Operation Status: Open
Foreword: The best way to kill a snake is to cut it at the head, but the Foundation is not a snake, but a Hydra. You cut one head off, and three take its place, but what would happen if you kept cutting the heads the second they grow? That is how you cripple a hydra eternally.
Hereafter we of Delta Command document the Steps of the Plan as transcribed by the Engineer of the Chaos Insurgency.
1. STEP 07/009
Delta command has approved Project "Dead Kings". Research and development are to begin immediately.
2. STEP 07/291
Project "Dead Kings" has successfully terminated Subject 493. Continued research is needed for the desired activation method.
3. STEP 08/011
Project "Dead Kings" has successfully terminated Subject 592 through word of mouth. Termination trials are to cease, and leakage of information is to begin.
4. STEP 08/113
Raid date has been confirmed for 20-06-2008. All non-alpha class personnel are not to enter the facility until confirmation of raid completion. All copies of this document present in the facility are to be incinerated and replaced with document SC-07/009-08/113B.
Further documentation revealed that SCP-XXXX is capable of activating a Burman-Halford memetic kill agent through knowledge of its existence.
Burman-Halford Memetic Kill Agents: Two months following the creation of the CI, the Ethics Committee held a blackout meeting. Though the exact meeting transcript is classified, an anonymous long-time Ethics Committee member has confirmed the discussion regarded methods to prevent O5 council defection. An Ethics Committee member, pseudonym "Burman-Halford", proposed a memetic kill agent implant. Following some deliberation, the proposal was approved. Prior to this, there had been no non-electronic memetic kill agents, thus several years following the meeting's completion, an implantable memetic kill agent had been created.
A Burman-Halford memetic kill agent requires the subject to hear a passphrase, known only by a selected few classified individuals, to activate and terminate the individual. It has also been shown to prevent other memetic kill agents from functioning. Due to the rarity of the objects needed to construct a single kill agent, they are only used on members of the O5 council. Members of the O5 council amnestized of the existence of the kill agent prior to promotion.
Post-Discovery Discussion: The following is a blackout meeting transcript regarding SCP-XXXX 37 hours following its discovery:

Then they will not. [Johnson] and I have already created a document series about a non-existent self-censoring anomaly. This will ensure that, although it is put together very hastily, it contains enough information and logs to account for that kind of anomaly. |
| Johnson |
I can confirm we made up an anti-memetic anomaly. I would also like to add that, with the assistance of [Knox], the O5 council will see the false anti-meme in place of SCP-XXXX. The false anomaly will further be known as SCP-XXXX-A for clarity. |

The above containment procedures were put in place following this meeting.
Addendum-XXXX-1: 5 months following the discovery of SCP-XXXX, O5-3 held an online meeting regarding SCP-XXXX-A with the Ethics Committee chairman. The below is the transcript of the meeting.

| EC_Chair |
Good day madam overseer, how have you been? |
| O5_03 |
I've been doing good, chairman, and you? |
| EC_Chair |
Not bad. Now let's get to the point. Is this in regards to my O5 council eligibility? |
| O5_03 |
Negative. That will be handled by 09 within the month. This meeting is in regards to SCP-XXXX. |
| EC_Chair |
That is an odd matter to discuss, do you not have larger issues to address? |
| O5_03 |
A recent breakthrough regarding amnestics has made anti-memetic anomalies have the potential for the thaumial class. That is why this is an O5 council matter. |
| EC_Chair |
I'm forgetting what SCP-XXXX is, perhaps due to its anti-memetic nature. Could we potentially reschedule this meeting for a later time so I may be knowledgeable on this subject? |
| O5_03 |
Unfortunately, my schedule would not allow us to meet again in a timely manner. I will have a mnestic agent displayed. |

[MESSAGE DELETED BY MODERATOR] |
| O5_03 |
Excuse me? Would you care to explain yourself, chairman? |
| EC_Chair |
I apologize madam overseer. I have recently had some technical difficulties receiving agents of any kind electronically. I have given myself a mnestic agent, and have full recall of SCP-XXXX's contents. |
| O5_03 |
I suggest resolving that issue be a priority. Nevertheless, let us begin discussing SCP-XXXX. |
| EC_Chair |
How could SCP-XXXX be of use in the creation of amnestics? |
| O5_03 |
I suggest contacting the anti-memetic research department for that query. I am here to speak to you about its documentation. As some of the actions taken were approved by the Ethics Committee, I believe your input would be valuable. |
| EC_Chair |
This makes sense, continue. |
| O5_03 |
I understand that SCP-XXXX is anti-memetic, however, why was the usage of mnestics not considered? |
| EC_Chair |
Considering the low priority of SCP-XXXX's research, it was decided that usage of mnestics would be wasteful. |
| O5_03 |
Yet, there is a class of mnestics, Y, I believe, for this exact purpose. |
| EC_Chair |
However SCP-XXXX is not the only anti-memetic anomaly housed by the Foundation, thus, they were not used. |
| O5_03 |
I officially request further testing be done with the usage of mnestic agents. |
| EC_Chair |
Apologies, I seem to have forgotten what we were conversing about. Allow me a moment to read our above conversation. |
| EC_Chair |
I don't believe we have an anti-memetic anomaly designated XXXX. |
| O5_03 |
This is unfortunate. Chairman, I suggest retaking anti-memetic resistance training VI soon. Please dispense yourself a mnestic. |
| EC_Chair |
Training scheduled, however I seem to be unable to dispense an electronic mnestic at this time. Perhaps my aforementioned issue has escalated. Madam O5, I do not believe we will be able to continue this meeting without encountering further delays. |
| O5_03 |
So it seems. Goodbye chairman. |
| EC_Chair |
Goodbye madam overseer |
| O5_03 |

Disconnecting… |
The following meeting regarding SCP-XXXX, this transcript was added to this file, as well as the Ethics Committee chairman confirming that they had full recollection of SCP-XXXX-A's contents throughout the meeting. All Foundation automated systems were also prohibited from referencing SCP-XXXX-A, as well as when SCP-XXXX is referenced, file SCP-XXXX-A would be shown.
NOTICE FROM OVERWATCH COMMAND
By majority vote, the 13 overseers have elected that the following documents are to be declassified to the clearance level 5.
— Cassandra Whittler, Liaison, Overwatch Command
Addendum-XXXX-2: 2 days following the Addendum-XXXX-1, O5-3 contacted the Foundation training department and the technical support division for the Ethics Committee regarding the Ethics Committee's chairman's anti-memetic resistance training and agent dispensing issue respectively. Both stated that no such training or issue was reported.
Addendum-XXXX-3: The following is an O5 meeting transcript taken from a meeting 5 days following Addendum-XXXX-2:
| O5-1 |
All overseers are present. Let us begin. |
| O5-3 |
As I have called this meeting, I shall begin the discussion. This meeting is regarding the Ethics Committee chairman's behavior in a meeting with me one week ago. |
| O5-9 |
Should I take this into account, as their O5 eligibility examination is approaching? |
| O5-3 |
Most likely so. For reference, the meeting regarded SCP-XXXX, an anti-memetic anomaly. As you all know, a recent breakthrough in amnestics has made anti-memetic anomalies a top priority. I took to reviewing our most recently contained anti-memes, as they would most likely become relevant soon. During this is when I discovered SCP-XXXX. SCP-XXXX's documentation was odd. |
| O5-12 |
Is the contents of SCP-XXXX relevant to this discussion? |
| O5-3 |
I do not believe so, no. SCP-XXXX's documentation contains some oddities. For brevity, I'll leave them aside. I held a meeting with the chairman about these discrepancies. Hurgandy-Durgandy |

NOTICE FROM THE HCI DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT ADMINISTRATION
The document format used below is outdated. Usage of it in current Hidden Collection Initiative (HCI) documents will result in the document being invalidated.
— Mitchell McAlister, Head, DMA
Designation:
Item-125
Anomaly Class:
Non-Anomalous
Maintenance Required:
A full list of all Item-125 instances are to be compiled and kept attached to this document. All humanoid instances are to be lightly monitored for signs of side-effect of Experiment-E39 ("Amnesiacs").
Description:
Item-125 is the collective designation given to the non-anomalous objects, humans, and creatures detained and repeatedly tested for anomalous properties through Operation No Stone Unturned.
Operation No Stone Unturned:
Following the resignation of HCI Director Jordan Ramsey, Richard Cunningham was appointed to the position by United Nations (UN) Secret Council vote. When appointed, Dir. Cunningham immediately put Operation No Stone Unturned into action.
Operation No Stone Unturned mandated that all suspected anomalies be brought to HCI headquarters in Salzburg, Austria. They would then be rigorously tested, interrogated, searched, et cetera. Anomalies were given the "guilty until proven innocent" philosophy in regards to their anomalous property. While the operation was active, the average amount of anomalous objects contained annually was 49.4, the annual detentions for testing was 326.9, and the average time a non-anomalous subject was kept prior to deciding whether an object was anomalous was 6.6 months.
6 years and 9 months following Operation No Stone Unturned's enaction, the UN Secret Council publicized the following document:
UNITED NATIONS SECRET COUNCIL INVESTIGATION #0094
INVESTIGATIVE LEAD: Igor "Fallen Star" Kovalenko
INVESTIGATION SUBJECT: Hidden Collection Initiative (HCI)
INFORMATION GATHERED: The HCI has spent an average of 198% of its budget annually following Director Richard Cunningham's appointment, likely due to Operation No Stone Unturned, which began shortly following Dir. Cunningham's appointment. Operation No Stone Unturned mandated that all suspected anomalies be heavily questioned and tested prior to determining whether an object was anomalous or not.
ACTIONS TAKEN: Due to a severe lack of competence, Dir. Cunningham has been terminated from their position. Additionally, due to monetary concerns, the HCI has been terminated. All current HCI staff are to be transferred to the International Destruction Federation (IDF). The IDF is also to have its budget increased by 103%.
ALL CHANGES LISTED IN THIS DOCUMENT ARE EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
To keep the blind from opening their eyes,
one must become the blindfold.
—Fenenko Vikentiy Dmitrievich, Founder, United Nations Secret Council

Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Utile
Special Containment Procedures: Direct containment of SCP-XXXX has been abandoned indefinitely by Containment Committee vote following Incident-XXXX-1. Containment efforts are to be focused on minimizing public awareness of the anomalous properties of SCP-XXXX and SCP-XXXX-1 instances.
Upon the location of an SCP-XXXX-1 instance, amnestics are to be used as needed and the SCP-XXXX-1 instance is to be retrieved and placed into a soundproofed anomalous humanoid morgue. Studying SCP-XXXX-1 instances is permitted with proper clearance.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a Caucasian male of Canadian descent and origin known as Grayson Carter. SCP-XXXX currently resides in their residence in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. SCP-XXXX is capable of becoming intangible at will. SCP-XXXX has also been found to be able to create SCP-XXXX-1 instances. Though the method of their creation is unknown, speculation surrounding it has formulated the following assumptions:
- SCP-XXXX must be physically near a baseline human
- SCP-XXXX must be in physical possession of a chef's knife
- SCP-XXXX and the baseline human must be unseen by any other individual
SCP-XXXX-1 instances are typically aged 25-40 and of varying other demographics. SCP-XXXX-1 possess no signs of life (ex. heartbeat, pulse, brain activity), however act as though they are living and in extreme pain, causing them to be screaming and lying prone. SCP-XXXX-1 instances typically have a chef's knife puncturing their heart through the chest. Attempts to remove the knife from SCP-XXXX-1's chest will result in SCP-XXXX-1's vocalizations increasing in volume. These louder vocalizations possess a cognitohazardous effect, causing the individual attempting to remove the knife to stop doing so. When questioned, individuals typically state that "[they didn't] want to make [SCP-XXXX-1] suffer further".
