Item #: SCP-X
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: Due to the nature of SCP-X, it cannot be relocated. SCP-X is to be surrounded in a Faraday Cage measuring 20mX20mX20m. Only Class-D personnel are allowed to experiment with SCP-X. No open electrical devices are to be allowed within 20 metres of SCP-X. 2 (Two) Level 3 Guards are to be guarding the entrance of the Faraday Cage at all time. Guards are to be switched out and given a psyche exam every month. If they have not been affected, a Class A amnestic is to be administered. If personnel shows any sign of wanting to go through SCP-X, they are to be terminated. All experimentation is to be approved by personnel with at least Level 3 Security Clearance.
In case of breach, the door is to be sealed and the site is to be evacuated and isolated for a minimum of 24 hours. Power to the site is to be shut down until clear. Any personnel attempting to get inside before the 24 hours are over are to be terminated.
Description: SCP-X is a wooden doorway measuring 2.3 metres by 0.94 metres located in Burnaby, Canada. SCP-X was discovered after several natives were reported missing. The natives were later found deceased and mutilated in different ways approximately six months later, in various locations around the globe, including:
- In a washing machine in Xi'an, China.
- On Baggage Carousel 16 in John F. Kennedy Airport.
- In a crack shack in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The civilians who found the corpses were administered a Class A amnestic.
All wounds were inflicted postmortem, approximately two weeks before being found. All the corpses had died of dehydration. The wounds ranged from a ligature mark, to a knife wound, to a gunshot. Apart from the disfigurement, the bodies appear to have no injuries apart from pre-existing conditions.
SCP-X is made of wood, however, SCP-X cannot be incinerated, crushed, shattered, or melted. It appears that SCP-X is able to withstand enormous amounts of energy. If SCP-X is exposed to uncontained electricity within 20 metres, it will begin to shoot out metal shrapnel at speeds of up to ███km/h for up to 24 hours. Any and all attempts to destroy SCP-X have resulted in either death or failure.
When any sentient organic life form goes through SCP-X, it will disappear from existence, and reappear mutilated in 5-6 months in an unspecified location.
SCP-X also has the ability to emotionally manipulate humans into entering SCP-X. D-Class personnel reported feelings of nostalgia, attraction to SCP-X, and voices resembling loved ones emanating from SCP-X. Affected personnel will want to "Share the joy" to others.
Addendum X-A: Agent [REDACTED] was regretfully killed during the identification of SCP-X after accidentally turning on her taser within twenty metres. The site was evacuated.
Addendum X-B: Dr. ██████, while on scene, had a psychotic breakdown and caused a [REDACTED] event leading to █ casualties. Personnel reported that Dr. ██████ had dragged people and pushed them into SCP-X. Class A amnestic administered. Bodies were found in a train car heading towards Kansas City.
Experiment Log, SCP-X
Experiment No. 1, 04, 21, 20██
Subject: D-9045-57, female, 35, Hispanic, no known mental disorders.
Procedure: Subject was given a standard recorder, two 1-litre jugs of spring water, and 1 backup battery. Subject walked through SCP-X without any knowledge of SCP-X.
Results: Subject walked towards SCP-X. Subject died due to blunt force trauma from shrapnel fired from SCP-X.
Analysis: Inconclusive.Experiment No. 2, 04, 24, 20██
Subject: D-9045-63, male, 50, Caucasian, convicted of vehicular homicide, no known mental disorders.
Procedure: Subject was given a standard recorder and asked to do the same as D-9045-57.
Results: Results were identical to Experiment No. 1.
Analysis: It appears that SCP-X has an aversion to being recorded. This would suggests sentience. We're dealing with a much bigger deal than we originally thought. -Dr. Jaime MarloweExperiment No. 3, 05, 02, 20██
Subject: D-9046-02, male, 23, Caucasian, diagnosed with clinical depression.
Procedure: Subject was given a voice recorder, a folding chair, and a stopwatch. Subject was to sit near SCP-X and record any sounds emanating from SCP-X for 20 minutes. Subject was warned not to enter SCP-X.
Results: Subject returned alive and well. Subject reported slight feelings of elation. Subject also reported that he heard his mother's voice calling to him, even though she has been dead for several years. The voice recorder didn't record anything out of the ordinary, apart from some background feedback.
Analysis: SCP-X apparently radiates feelings of dopamine and oxytocin. Is it a by-product of SCP-X, or does it do it on purpose to attract travellers? -Dr. MarloweExperiment No. 4, 05, 06, 20██
Subject: D-9046-11, female, 38, Asian, convicted of a triple homicide, God complex.
Procedure: Subject had a GPS attached to it. Subject was told to walk through SCP-X. Subject was told that if it survived it would gain its freedom.
Results: Subject ran into SCP-X screaming, "Dumbasses!" The GPS signal could not be located once the Subject had entered SCP-X. Subject was found in Late October in an oven in Bangkok, Thailand with the GPS still fully functional and her arms cut off and placed in the oven.
Analysis: It seems that SCP-X cannot be located on Earth. Question is, does it lead to another dimension, or does it just lead to somewhere GPS cannot be located? -Dr. MarloweExperiment No. 5, 05, 13, 20██
Subjects: D-9046-44, D-9046-45, fraternal twins, 31, African-American, No known mental disorders.
Procedure: Subjects are to walk into SCP-X handcuffed together and each carrying one GPS.
Results: D-9046-44 was found with a slash mark across his chest in Mid-November on a barge in the Atlantic. D-9046-45 was found with her organs removed one week later in an ice-cream machine in Kyoto, Japan.
Analysis: Twins apparently don't affect how SCP-X works. I'm disappointed it didn't work the way I thought it would. -Dr. MarloweExperiment No. 6, 05, 14, 20██
Subject: One defunct Panasonic microwave.
Procedure: Agent ████ decided it would be a good idea to toss his microwave into SCP-X.
Results: SCP-X immediately lobbed the microwave out of itself into the back of Agent ████'s skull. He died.
Analysis: SCP-X appears to dislike having objects thrown into it. This further confirms my sentience theory. -Dr. MarloweNote: And seriously? A microwave? Stop throwing random garbage into SCPs! -Dr. Jaime Marlowe
Experiment No. 7, 06, 24, 20██
Subject: D-9048-71, 46, Hispanic, charged with fraud, no known mental disorders.
Procedure: Subject is to be given one camping backpack, five months worth of food and water, two radios, twelve AA batteries, a cellular phone, and several books. Subject was warned that deviation from procedure would result in instant termination. Subject was told to begin living in SCP-X.
Results: Subject was found decapitated in an abandoned factory in St. Petersburg, Russia. However, subject was well nourished and hydrated up to the point of death, proved by the presence of potato chips in stomach contents. Cause of death was exsanguination.
Analysis: SCP-X allows people to live within it, but will eventually execute them at the half-year mark. But why does SCP-X act this way, with the random injuries, and the half-year period? -Dr. MarloweExperiment No. 8, 7, 01, 20██
Subject: One human cadaver, female, 57, Caucasian, died of cardiac arrest.
Procedure: Subject is to be pushed into SCP-X by one D-Class personnel.
Results: After approximately ten minutes, SCP-X launched the subject out of itself. Subject had a hole in its chest measuring 21.3 centimetres in diameter.
Analysis: SCP-X doesn’t appreciate corpses apparently. I don’t know, maybe it’s just picky? -Dr. MarloweExperiment No. 9, 07, 05, 20██
Subject:** One potted Aloe Vera plant (Aloe barbadensis miller)
Procedure: Subject is to be pushed into SCP-X by one D-Class Personnel.
Results: After approximately ten minutes, SCP-X pushed subject out. Subject was examined. Subject did no undergo any changes.
Analysis: SCP-X doesn't care about plant life, but will not harm it. Interesting. -Dr. MarloweExperiment No. 10, 07, 13, 20██
Subject: One cow (Bos Taurus)
Procedure: Subject is to be coerced into walking into SCP-X.
Results: Subject was found dead in the attic of a hotel in Chad. Subject was found eviscerated. Subject had died to dehydration.
Analysis: SCP-X seems to accept any sentient life form. I'm not sure why it does this in the first place. More research is required. -Dr. Marlowe//
Addendum X-C: On 12, 11, 20██, SCP-X spawned an arm out of itself. These instances are to be referred to SCP-X-1. Instances of SCP-X-1 are to be reported, neutralized, and incinerated, unless SCP-X-1 is being experimented on. All instances of SCP-X-1 contain DNA of one of the subjects. SCP-X-1 has sentience, being able to move via crawling, and all instances know how to write in English. All instances of SCP-X-1 have demonstrated sympathy towards humans and will try to help them with their tasks. However, if questioned for a prolonged period, SCP-X-1 will slowly become more irritable. SCP-X-1 does not decompose, even though SCP-X-1 has the same makeup as a normal human arm.
For further information, refer to the following transcript.
Interview No. 1, SCP-X-1
The following interview was recorded and rewritten. A D-Class Personnel was used. The original copy has been destroyed. SCP-X-1 was given a No. 2 Staedtler Brand pencil and two ordinary pieces of Hilroy Brand lined paper.D-10259-21: Hello!
SCP-X-1: (Waves.)
D-10259-21: Do you know who you are?
SCP-X-1: (Points thumb downwards.)
D-10259-21: Do you have a name?
SCP-X-1: (Does not respond.)
D-10259-21: …May I call you SCP-X-1?
SCP-X-1: (Points thumb upwards.)
D-10259-21: Can you remember anything from before?
SCP-X-1: (Picks up pencil.) I do not wish to answer that.
D-10259-21: Alright then. Can you tell me what being in SCP-X was like?
D-10259-21: Erm, well, yes, at any rate. Do you know where you are?
SCP-X-1: No.
D-10259-21: Do you have any questions?
SCP-X-1: (Pauses.) Where are my brothers and sisters?
D-10259-21: What brothers and sisters?
SCP-X-1: The ones in the void! Damn it, where are they?
D-10259-21: X-1, I don't know where you came from. Wait, void?
SCP-X-1: You have to find them!
D-10259-21: How would I even find them?
SCP-X-1: FIND THEM NOW!
It was at this point that SCP-X-1 snapped the pencil and threw the pieces at D-10259-21. SCP-X-1 was locked in Agent ████████'s office and D-10259-21 had a Class A amnestic administered.
At this point, Dr. Marlowe took control of all interviews involving SCP-X-1.
Interview No. 2, SCP-X-1
Dr. Marlowe: Hello, X-1.
SCP-X-1: I'm sorry for what happened yesterday.
Dr. Marlowe: That's alright. Now, if we could talk about your siblings?
SCP-X-1: Very well.
Dr. Marlowe: Alright then, where are they?
SCP-X-1: They were with me! In the void! You know, the void?
Dr. Marlowe: Describe this void, please.
SCP-X-1: It was strange. It was pitch black, and I couldn't feel or see or hear.
Dr. Marlowe: Then how did you communicate?
SCP-X-1: I mean, there were voices in my head mind. I could talk with them there.
Dr. Marlowe: Now, when you say talk, do you mean talking in your mind, or thoughts?
SCP-X-1: (Pauses.) I can't explain it. I suppose was thoughts.
Dr. Marlowe: So, you have telepathy?
SCP-X-1: I suppose.
Dr. Marlowe: (Writes something down.) Can you tell me what I'm thinking right now?
SCP-X-1: (Pauses for a minute.) No, sorry.
Dr. Marlowe: Damn shame.
Dr. Marlowe: Anyways, tell me more about this void.
SCP-X-1: It was just… emptiness. Apart from the thoughts, it was nothing.
Dr. Marlowe: Okay. Is there anything you would like?
SCP-X-1: (Pauses.) My siblings
Dr. Marlowe: I meant things on a physical level, like a book, or a toy.
SCP-X-1: (Pauses.) Could I have some paper?
Note: SCP-X-1 has telepathy, but it appears to only be able to communicate within the void. Perhaps, with a little more practice, SCP-X-1's abilities could be harnessed. -Dr. Marlowe
SCP-X-1: (Picks up pencil.)) I’m surprised.
Dr. Marlowe: Oh, really? Why?
SCP-X-1: You don’t seem startled.
Dr. Marlowe: Why would I be startled?
SCP-X-1: I’m a dismembered sentient arm.
Dr. Marlowe: So?
SCP-X-1: Your resolve is impressive. If a civilian were to see me, I imagine it would not be pleasant for them.
Dr. Marlowe: When you’ve been in my line of work, you eventually become used to it.
SCP-X-1: Well, at any rate, I commend you.
Dr. Marlowe: (Writes something down.) I’m surprised by you as well.
SCP-X-1: How so?
Dr. Marlowe: I would not expect an arm to be capable of conversation.
SCP-X-1: Neither would I, and yet… (Pauses.)
Dr. Marlowe: I have a few more questions for you, and then I’ll leave you alone for the day.
SCP-X-1: That’s alright. I do enjoy these talks, by the way. It’s the only time I’m not in complete isolation.
Dr. Marlowe: You are strictly a research subject to me.
SCP-X-1: Yes, yes, I understand.
Dr. Marlowe: Anyways, onto the questions. Last time, we spoke of your siblings. How many are there?
SCP-X-1: Three.
Dr. Marlowe: Genders?
SCP-X-1: We do not have genders. We exist, and that is all. Or, at least, I exist.
Dr. Marlowe: Describe them for me, please.
SCP-X-1: One called themselves Nebulae. Nebulae was charismatic. They were always a happy dafty. Always full of optimism, that one.
Dr. Marlowe: And the others.
SCP-X-1: My second sibling is called Eclipsei. They were extremely cynical. So strict all the time, and so full of anger.
Dr. Marlowe: And the final sibling?
SCP-X-1: We called them Tyran. They were a spitfire. Always full of energy, and no way to exhaust it. Pity they aren’t here.
Dr. Marlowe: (Scribbles something down.) Thank you for your cooperation. I’d also like to double back to what you said before? About existing?
SCP-X-1: Go ahead.
Dr. Marlowe: Thank you. Now, how did you come to exist?
SCP-X-1: As I said, I just simply existed. I don’t know how.
Dr. Marlowe: (Marks down on paper.) Well, thank you for your time.
SCP-X-1: It’s not like i have anything else to do.
Addendum X-D: As of 01, 16, 20██, SCP-X-1 has requested:
- Sketching pencils (Granted)
- Origami paper (Granted)
- Pencil sharpener (Denied. If need be, SCP-X-1 is to ask a guard to assist.)
- Scissors (Denied)
- Paint (Granted)
- Batteries (Denied)
- Gramophone with record of "Water Music: Suite in D major, HWY 349" (Granted)
- Chalkboard (Processing)
All requests are to come though Dr. Marlowe.
Note: I don't know why SCP-X is so violent, but SCP-X-1 is so docile and thoughtful. I don't know why, I don't know how, but I'm not going to stop researching. -Dr. Marlowe
