Authors' Resources

Per the greenlighting policy, first-time authors must get concepts reviewed in the Ideas Critique Forum or IRC chatrooms before creating a feedback thread in the Drafts and Critique forum. Draft critique can still be sought via IRC and PM without greenlights.

When you have a draft that you know for sure the audience will like, bring it to Drafts Critique Forum. Please note that the forums move much slower than the chat, and the draft forum moves slower than the ideas forum!

The mainsite-run IRC chatrooms are the most reliable source of real-time critique discussion.

SCP-XXXX

Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment procedures
SCP-XXXX is to be kept in an empty room with no special locks or protection in place. The only time protection may be required is in the case of a containment breech of any other entity, during which SCP-XXXX should be kept in the specialised cell in site ■ ■ which should be monitored by at least two personnel of rank B or above. The entrance to this cell should be protected by at least 3 armed guards at any point while SCP-XXXX is being kept inside. The cell is made of titanium with three meter wide walls and a reinforced steel door. When it is put in this cell it must be examined for any damage and repaired to prevent it using the walls of the cell to replace itself.

It is to be allowed to visit one other SCP on any given day, but only if SCP-XXXX has requested to meet with an entity. Any entity currently ranking Euclid or safe is permitted to meet with SCP-XXXX.]

Description:
[SCP-XXXX is a humanoid entity capable of speech in every human language. The entity is made of stone and metal joined together by what appears to be clay, however tests have determined that this substance is indestructible and cannot be analysed. The stone and metal making up the entity can be destroyed, however this will lead to SCP-XXXX searching for the nearest sources of stone and any type of metal to rebuild itself.

At any given point, typically every 36 hours with the longest gap being 83 hours, the entity will request to visit another entity. As explained in the containment procedures any Euclid or safe entity can meet with SCP-XXXX. When the entity meets with another SCP it is to be in the cell of the creature or entity being visited.

SCP-XXXX will proceed to care for and protect the other entity while ensuring they do not escape, however regular security for said entity shall remain the same, as SCP-XXXX has yet to state it's motives. However it appears that SCP-XXXX has a calming effect on both the staff and other entities it meets with, even making the most passive entities in containment passive for a short period.

SCP-XXXX seems to be aware of the needs of any entity in close proximity and should be provided with the means to meet these needs. SCP-XXXX appears to be immune to the effects of any other entities, even being able to observe SCP-096 without triggering any response.

If SCP-XXXX is not allowed to meet with another entity within three hours of its initial request it will request again, and after another hour of isolation will attempt to exit it's cell by force and find the nearest entity, regardless of its containment level. This has led to one containment breech in the past, and has led to the creation of the specialised cell at site ■■. This has also led to the creation of a special team within the foundation specifically to determine which entity SCP-XXXX is going to meet upon any given request. This team shall take SCP-XXXX to the cell of the entity and ensure SCP-XXXX enters safely.

Addendum:
In a rare case, after meeting with SCP-XXXX, SCP-191 specifically requested to meet with SCP-XXXX again, though this was through simple vocabulary and only occurred once. The reason for this request is unknown and it has been decided that the two shall not be allowed to meet again for security purposes, as SCP-XXXX refused to reveal what they talked about for unknown reasons, and SCP-191 will not be of much use due to it's limited vocabulary.

All entities capable of speech describe SCP-XXXX's visit as a pleasant experience, regardless of their personalities and state that SCP-XXXX tried to meet all of their needs and requests, so long as it would not harm others. Thanks to these visits the foundation has determined that SCP-XXXX has a love for all living things and refuses to harm life, however it has no problems harming artificial intelligence or non living creatures that still show sentience, like SCP-173. Which it attempted to harm after a request from Dr. ■■■■■, who was promptly termine.
