Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: All Foundation members at risk of coming into contact with SCP-XXXX in any form are required to submit to rigorous psychological testing every day for thirty five days after exposure. If anyone fails the testing, their Article A-1 classification is to be determined and the appropriate response is to be implemented.
The anomaly is currently undetectable at stage one.
At stage two, the subject must have a rod made of pure silver surgically implanted in the right forearm, and so long as it is there, and intact, the effects of SCP-XXXX are nullified, and the subject may return to active duty after two weeks of screening to make certain that the procedure was successful.
If the subject somehow made it to stage three or four, the subject must have a ball, 5 millimeters in diameter, and made of pure silver implanted in the back of the head. This procedure will suspend the process of transformation; however, it does not nullify any current effects. The subject must be placed in a holding cell, and receive psychiatric care, until the subject is deemed fit for duty; however, the subject must have its host entity logged, and will be studied once per week.
If stage Five is reached, the subject must be contained within a cell constructed of a
silver-steel alloy. The subject will be given a SCP designation (SCP-XXXX-3A, SCP-XXXX-3B, SCP-XXXX-3C…)
Description: SCP-XXXX can be divided into three subcategories.
The first variant, SCP-XXXX-1 is often described as a solid shadow bearing a faint resemblance to a hovering human head, but with fire burning within the eye sockets and mouth.
The second variant, SCP-XXXX-2 is described similarly to SCP-XXXX-1, but with a more canid appearance.
Instances of SCP-XXXX-3 are when humans have gone through all of the stages of Article
A-1, and appearance depends upon the subject’s host entity according to Article A-2
Addendum:
Article A-1
The progression of humans into instances of SCP-XXXX-3 has five distinct stages:
Stage 1, The subject gains a high fever, but otherwise has no other symptoms. This stage lasts anywhere from twelve hours to three days,
Stage 2, The subject begins to have “still” dreams of their host entity every night, this stage lasts exactly for three weeks.
Stage 3, The subject begins to see instances of SCP-XXXX-1 in their peripheral vision, and the transformation process is no longer reversible. This stage lasts for one to four hours.
Stage 4, The subject begins to see their host entity instead of their own reflection when looking at reflective surfaces, subjects at this stage also gain a manner of control over instances of SCP-XXXX-1. This stage lasts for eight days.
Stage 5, The subject will begin having extreme headaches, and ocular migraines. Then the subject begins going through the initial changes. Once this stage is reached, the subject’s transformation cannot be halted.
End
Article A-2
All instances of SCP-XXXX-3 have a host entity. The host entity affects its appearance and abilities, fortunately, some are rarer than others. Four are recognised as of now.
Entity “King”
This entity appears to wear black plate armor heavily stylized with images of crowns and crossed swords, but without a helmet, and instead it wears a circlet. Only one of this entity ever exists at one time. This entity’s two abilities are, the ability to decapitate its foes, and have the head rise as an instance of SCP-XXXX-1, and be able to spout fire from the eye sockets. This entity is not very knowledgeable about recent items like phones, guns, or cars, and simply cannot comprehend them. Extended exposure to such items is not recommended as it is seen to frustrate the entity. This particular entity is unpredictable sometimes when it forms, it goes on a rampage creating a massive army of SCP-XXXX-1s, other times it is very peaceful, and will happily talk to researchers.
Entity “Soldier”
These entities typically don WW2 era German uniforms. They have very little knowledge of where they came from; However. they do have the capacity to operate modern firearms, and drive vehicles. These entities are typically friendly unless in the presence is an aggressive “King,” or “Knight” entity.
Entity “Knight”
These entities only form near a king entity. They don similar armour to the “King” entity, but wear a helmet, and lack the crown insignias. Only ten ever exist at one time, and once the “King” entity dies, they fade away, their mood always corresponds with the “King” entity, and these entities share the ability to create instances of SCP-XXXX-1 by decapitating a foe. They are always accompanied by at least five instances of SCP-XXXX-2 and any attempts to remove them from the entity is met with hostility. These entities are always armed with a longsword, any attempts to remove these swords from their owners has proven fruitless because when the sword is removed from the scabbard by anyone except the entity, or the entity drops the sword, another reforms in the scabbard.
Entity “Scholar”
Only three of these entities exist at one time. They typically wear what appears to be robes of a 14th century design. These entities can perfectly recall events in their previous forms, and of their previous hosts. These entities are always friendly, and seem to enjoy learning as much information as possible. They do not seem to mind sharing this information either, and thus can be used as great libraries of knowledge.
