A known SCP-XXXX location.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is currently contained in the bottom level of Site-19's Isolation Wing. The cell's plumbing has been modified to be independent of Site's water supply. Banana peels, rakes, and wet floor signs are to be placed strategically along the area immediately surrounding SCP-XXXX's containment area. Additionally, a tripwire connecting to a 100 kg anvil hung over the cell door has been installed. Should SCP-XXXX be affected by any of the aforementioned precautions, personnel are to escort the subject into its containment chamber.
In the event of total containment failure, MTF Kappa-3 ("The Chucklefucks") and a Foundation-certified mime are to be deployed to assist in reestablishing containment.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a two-dimensional entity which exists within normative three-dimensional space. Despite having no physical depth, SCP-XXXX interacts with solid matters in a fashion which appears to the person observing it as consistent with the necessary position for carrying out a given activity. In turn, SCP-XXXX effectively functions as a projection of subjective perception on a plane perpendicular to the direction of observation with no objective physical orientation.
This phenomenon is best illustrated with a basic test in which SCP-XXXX sits in an armchair:
- Subject A views SCP-XXXX from the front and sees its legs bent in a sitting position and its feet suspended above the ground, conveying the illusion that SCP-XXX is physically occupying the seat. However, because it possesses a two-dimensional figure, all parts of its body exist on a single plane. Because the body of SCP-XXXX can be seen overlapping the seat and legs of the chair, it can be inferred that SCP-XXXX is hovering at a point slightly in front of the chair itself.
- At the same time, Subject B views SCP-XXXX from the side (90° rotation relative to Subject A) and sees the arms of the chair overlapping its body. This would imply that SCP-XXXX occupies an area of space between the arms the chair, directly contradicting observations by Subject A.
Attempts to measure the depth of space SCP-XXXX subjectively occupies1 have shown an even thickness of ≤100 nanometres across its body. Due to the inherent incongruence between SCP-XXXX's two-dimensional form and three-dimensional function, it is currently impossible to observe SCP-XXXX from an angle where its flatness is visible to the naked eye. However, if a subject were able to successfully observe SCP-XXXX at an exact 90° rotation from its projected plane, it would theoretically disappear from the viewer's subjective reality. Ongoing studies are being undertaken to achieve this a means of containment.
All matter within a ~10m proximity of SCP-XXXX will experience adverse reactions. The mechanism for this is poorly understood: effects generally imply a degradation in the the environment's ability to support baseline reality structure, but no abnormal Hume readings or Kantographs have been recorded. Furthermore, various pataphysical corruption identifiers have been marked in controlled experiments, indicating that SCP-XXXX's destructive properties are not due to a collapse in local reality structure, but rather an unfavorable reconciliation between two tangent and incompatible modes of fundamental existence.
Effects of exposure to SCP-XXXX vary across a broad variety of symptoms including (but not limited to):
- Finger problem
Below is a log detailing notable containment breaches performed by SCP-XXXX.
Breach #:
Breach Method:
Recontainment Method:
Breach #: 23
Breach Method: SCP-XXXX announced it was craving a pizza and opened its containment chamber door, and walked out before returning with a rotary phone. Phone signal bypassed communication jammers, and SCP-XXXX placed an order at a nearby Pizza Hut for a large cheese pizza. Within 30 minutes, a delivery boy parked in front of and was accidentally permitted to enter Site-19. SCP-XXXX instructed him to open the door. Once open, SCP-XXXX breached containment.
Recontainment Method: SCP-XXXX was reminded that they had not paid for their pizza. Following questioning, the delivery boy was administered amnestics and released at the nearest urban center alongside his vehicle.
Breach #: 05
Breach Method: SCP-XXXX flushed itself down the toilet in its containment chamber.
Recontainment Method: After two hours of being missing, SCP-XXXX appeared from a faucet in the Floor 21 women's restroom. SCP-XXXX was physically subdued and rendered unconscious by Dr. Everwood.
Note: Containment procedures updated. Dr. Everwood was reprimanded for use of excessive force.
Breach #:
Breach Method: SCP-XXXX posed as "Dr. Hugh Mann" via the use of a lab coat and beaglepuss. SCP-XXXX was able to bypass several security clearance checkpoints by threatening to report stationed guards to their supervisor and claiming to be Dr. Everett Mann.
Recontainment Method: Site-19 PA system was used to ask Dr. Hugh Mann to attend an emergency meeting in SCP-XXXX's containment chamber.
Breach #:
Breach Method: SCP-XXXX placed itself inside a cardboard box addressed to Kalamazoo, Michigan and asked a guard to deliver the package to the mailroom.
Recontainment Method: No postage was paid for shipping. The box holding SCP-XXXX was returned to its containment chamber.
Breach #:
Breach Method: SCP-XXXX drew a large hole in the wall of its containment chamber, which it then used to breach containment.
Recontainment Method: MTF Kappa-3 pursued the subject into a designated chokepoint in which a wall had been painted to resemble the exterior of Site-19. SCP-XXXX was rendered unconscious upon impact with the wall.
Breach #:
Breach Method: Unknown. SCP-XXXX was observed to be still for 3 hours until a wellness check was performed, revealing that the subject had at some point replaced itself with an identical cardboard cutout and breached containment.
Recontainment Method: N/A. SCP-XXXX manifested in its chamber the following day and willingly continued its containment, stating it 'needed a vacation.' The whereabouts of SCP-XXXX during its 25-hour absence remain unknown.
