Description:
SCP-5263 is a humanoid entity, approximately 1.7 meters in length. SCP-5263's head appears to be a fish of the Tetraodontidae family. Though stingers
SCP-5263 has been seen to wear a cloak, dark red in colour. The cloak covers most of SCP-5263's body, and attempts of removal are unnecesarry.
SCP-5263 does not need to eat or defecate, though it is thought that it drinks water from its containment.
SCP-5263 has been noted to speak in a language resembling Dutch, though SCP-5263 is capable of understanding English and German speech.
SCP-5263 has been cooperative with staff, and SCP-5263 has not shown hostility towards any personnel.
Though SCP-5263 spends most of its time in the water, it will sometimes be seen standing in a corner of its cell, standing still for one (1) to seven (7) hours.
When SCP-5263 is standing in one of the corners, it has been noted that all water within a three (3) meter radius will become slightly red.
The origin of this red colour is unknown, and water that has its colour changed due to SCP-5263 has been proven to be safe to humans.
No changes within the chemical composition of the affected water has been found. It has been noted that research personnel feel uneasy around water affected by SCP-5263 for an unknown reason.
When asked about this phenomenon, SCP-5263 simply states that it doesn't know why this happens.
Addendum 5263.1: Colour Change In Water
Interviewed: SCP-5263
Interviewer: Dr. █
Foreword: The following is Dr. █'s interview with SCP-5263 regarding the phenomenon that occurs in water because of SCP-5263.
[BEGIN LOG]
Dr. █: Tell me, how are you able to change the colour of water?
SCP-5263: (In Dutch) I do not understand, I cannot change the colour of water.
Dr. █: I would like you to continue in English, if that wouldn't be a problem with you.
SCP-5263: (In English) I cannot talk English that well, but I will try.
Dr. █: Thank you. So anyway, could you repeat for me what you just said?
SCP-5263: I said that I am not able to change the colour of water.
Dr. █: We have observations of water turning slightly red whenever you stand in a corner of your cell. Is there any reason for you to stand in any of the corners?
SCP-5263: There is no reason other than that I am bored. I feel… How do you say it… Like a magnet is pulling me into the corner. I have no control over this.
Dr. █: What do you think about when you stand in the corner?
SCP-5263: I think of nothing. It feels like sleep. I close my eyes, and when I open them, I try to lay down in the water again. I do not have a sense of time when I am standing in the corner.
Dr. █: Is there any reason for you to wear that cloak?
SCP-5263 appears to be thinking for a short time, then answers.
SCP-5263: No. I don't think there is. I just remember wearing this for as long as I can think back.
Dr. █: So what other early memories do you possess?
SCP-5263: I do not understand your question, I am very sorry.
Dr. █: Let me ask it in a different way. Do you remember anything else from a long time ago?
SCP-5263: Yes. I remember water. The feeling of water. I also remember a voice asking me something, though I do not know what.
Dr. █: Do you remember who's voice it was?
SCP-5263: No. I think it may have been my own, but I am not sure.
Dr. █: Is there any other information you need to share with us?
SCP-5263: No. I would just like to go back to my containment, if that is okay.
Dr. █: That is okay, you will be taken back to your containment. Thank you for your time.

Closing Statement: After this interview, SCP-5263 was brought back to its cell, where it stood in the corner for five (5) hours. Dr. █ was happy with the results of this interview.
