Clef talking about how "I am not "Dr. Alto Clef" it is the role i am forced to play, i am just "Alto H. Clef", a person who once thought that changing his first name to a musical term would be funny."

smth like
"I am not a liar. In fact everyone here are. While on your job here, you can't see people. You just see the masks they are wearing to suit for this place. And that's okay, everyone here do this from janitor to the O5."
"Foundation is really a goddamn theatre, just a really twisted one."

i keep forgeting tow tite down ideas

Random idea I just got:
File from early Foundation (end of 19th or beginning of 20h century) where it was one of their first encounters with type Green and the guy they encountered told them that he was Jesus Christ and Foundation actually believed him

---

My 001 (real!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

CODE NAME: FILIPP - Uncertainty.

it all starts when O5-13 scans the databases and discovers that SCP-001's file…
empty

yes, the file is classified by level 5 clearance, but there is nothing there
O5-13 calls the others
O5-1 remembers that, in fact, 001 was originally nothing that important and wouldn't even deserve Level 3 clearance, so he goes on and says "Let's just do something that sounds important enough to fit the number 001"
the council agrees and everyone starts to go with their versions of 001
O5-2 writes that all anomalies are connected in some way
O5-3 states that the SCP-001 is the God himself, not necessarily 343, but still.
Herman spent his whole life in the Foundation researching religious stuff
he mentions 073, 076, 336 etc
Then O5-9 tries to have additions to it, project Paragon and related to it. It’s since he is the head of Antediluvian research
Then O5-7 says that they are both somewhat wrong and right at the same time
He blames it all on occult wars and the different gods
MEKHANE, Yaldphaoh, Deer, LTE-0913-Ex-Machina, etc.
Scarlet King is ofc present
O5-5 at some point that maybe something is creating them (stuff like The Factory)
At some point overseers ask O5-10 what she have to say since she is in the wanders library and read a lot
O5-10 probably comes up with the proposal that maybe this is all is a "Merciless random of universe". Chaos and infinite possibilities
O5-8 suggest maybe putting the concept of Antimemetics itself as SCP-001 file. Stuff like 3125
Getting back to religious stuff some overseer could suggest that maybe the death itself can be classed as SCP
O5-13 doesn’t come up with anything cause he is AI

what does each O5 writes about:
O5-1: N/A
O5-2: Each SCP is connected
O5-3: God (Abrahahamic religion stuff)
O5-4: Death
O5-5: Something creates SCPs
O5-6: Foundation is anomalous
O5-7: Occult wars and Gods like Scarlet King are causing anomalies
O5-8: Antimemetics itself
O5-9: Doesn't believe in Abrahahamic God so writes about daevas and Fae with Scarlet king amybe
O5-10: The infinite possibilities and how universe is random
O5-11: no idea for now
O5-12: No idea for now. Concpet of anomalous even existing maybe?
O5-13: N/A

Cross-links to each 001:
O5-1: The Prototype
O5-2: Keter Duty
O5-3: The Gate Guardian, God's Blind Spot, The Lock, Thirty-Six
O5-4: Dead Men
O5-5: The Spiral Path, The Factory and the O5-13 (cause in FiD O5-5 is the most recent council member and most normal)
O5-6: The Foundation
O5-7: The Scarlet King, The Broken god, A Simple Toymaker
O5-8: The Placeholder maybe?
O5-9: AMONI-RAM, The Queen's Gambit
O5-10: Project Palisade
O5-11: Fishhook
O5-12: Normalcy
O5-13: 001-EX

O5-1: "Regardless, maybe some of you should try to keep it simple?" (Links too 001-THE-TRUTH which is 184)
O5-11: "No promises!" (links to the way it ends)

idk maybe put Administrator?

O5 Council/Foundation being anomalous itself.

SCP-XXXX-EX "The Ukulele Man" (or smth luke this)

Foundation tries to classify Dr. Clef as SCP but abaddon idea. Gonna write that with Waldo.

"Azathoth Gambit"

Greatest plan of the Chaos Insurgency to bring the Foundation down

This plan includes:
- infiltrating and having contacts in the United States Government to gain influence
- collecting defectors from all over the anomalous world
- collecting classified military data from all over the world countries
- assassination of high-ranking Foundation members. This includes, but not like yes to: O5 Council, Ethics Committee, Administrative Division etc
- sabotaging the work of the Foundation trough causing containment breaches and different incidents
- buying, collecting and stealing anomalous tech or anything from Anderson Robotics, MC&D, Factory etc
- mass production of para-weaponry

The last step of the plan would be all-out warfare against damaged Foundation.
This plan requires Insurgency >10 years of preparation and additional actions to put it in place

CI here breifly:
Anomalous Terrorists Fundamentalists with Spartan Discipline who recruit fighters from various Terrorist Organisations around the world and train them as hard as possible, highly involved in Black Market activities. They take test subjects from Homeless people and refugees. They maybe not as big as SCPF or GOC, but they are professional terrorists af so they posses a threat.
they also offer their mercenaries to different organisations for a good prise

SCP-XXXX 333rd Special red-banner regiment ("Red Cursaders")

group of thaumaturges or whatever types there are tried to perform some sort of the ritual which somehow angered the skies or they wanted to get access to Heaven and eventually Archangels got to them to kick their asses
Cultists were defeated however Arcnhangels were knocked off. Maybe related to SCP-3457

RI "Progress" Found archangels, helps them, makes cyborg out of them(?) and then send to military.

They later fight with Obskurakorps during WW2/7th OW tho

Angelical Sky Phenomenon

• SCP article or GoI Format
• What if there’s like was a phenomenons in the sky/Earth’s orbit. Foundation/Pentagram/GOC or whoever thought that it was aliens.
• They tried to communicate/shot it down with ICBM (optional)
• But it turned out to be Angelic-biblical being

Waldo's

• R&D was created after the Foundation Civil War and as a part of Directive Alpha/1911, but was later dropped out.

• R&D was formed with two purposes: reverse-engineer recovered SCPs lost to the Civil War to figure out ways to increase the security and containment of the Foundation, as well as to create an enclave in Site-37 to recover these lost SCPs and aid the reconstruction of Europe.

• A joint research program led by "Progress" Research Institute and R&D as a proto-Samsara task force. However, the project fails and leads to the escape of many of the test subjects used in tests. It increases the percentage of humans with anomalous capabilities above the yearly average since then, leading to a high rate of anomalous humanoids outside the Veil, leading to the genocide of Type Greens in the Ichabod Campaign.

• An SCP about the process of creating the first SRA between R&D and the Department of Ontokinetics, featuring Dr. Robert Scranton as the protagonist.

• Cognitohazardous safe rooms in the cases of raids or containment breaches, created after several incidents caused by an unknown group to the Foundation. After an investigation done by a Foundation analyst, he discovers the return of the Triad through the new Chaos Insurgency.

• The Foundation finds out experimental mind control chemicals inside the food in Arby's and Taco Bell locals, leading to the discovery of PENTAGRAM ownership and the real state of General Bowe: punished with a desk job in Area-51 as the cover CEO of Arby's and Taco Bell.

• Plan Yaldaboath: A plan designed between the Bowe Commission, PENTAGRAM and the Foundation to take over the anomalous world in the case of a rapid increase in anomalous activity throughout the world and the Foundation is incapable of containing most of it. The plan includes:
  • Strengthening the current relationships between PENTAGRAM and the Foundation through the Bowe Commission, as well as strengthen the Unusual Incidents Unit.
  • Rapidly include SCPs capable of reverse-engineering and weaponization in Omega-7.
  • Influence normalcy organization in the North American sphere of influence to the PENTAGRAM-SCP Foundation alliance, turning it into subordinates of the alliance.
  • Move to the rest of the world, looking to include the UNGOC into it.
    • • In case of resistance, initially letting go.
      • If this happens, slowly influence and pressure third-world governments and organization to join the alliance.
    • Slowly destroy the GOC from the inside out if it becomes a threat to the Foundation.
    • Begin a campaign against the Chaos Insurgency, Serpent's Hand, and smaller anomalous organizations. Take hold of the Wanderer's Library and utilize it to find information of how to deal with all of the anomalies in the world.
    • In the end, effectively uniting the world against the anomalous in a PENTAGRAM-SCP Foundation-UIU-UNGOC-MC&D alliance — a world united against the anomalous.
  • Shit obviously doesn't happen because Bowe Commission blew up with Omega-7.

• The Denver Airport is the base of operations for the Illuminate (member of the Council of 108) due to the presence of Bluecifer.

• Foundation's Department of Health: The Department of Health is tasked with overseeing the health of Foundation personnel and SCPs, as well as implementing policies to improve the health of staff. The Department of Health oversees areas such as physical health, mental health, meal planning, health guidelines and standards, health crises, and many other plethora of medical and health-related areas through its various subdepartments. Has a big say in containment procedures alongside the Ethics Committee to satisfy the medical demands of anomalies.

• Waldo-Filipp Proposal: The Price We Pay

An eigenmachine created throughout the history of the Foundation to un-do the entirety of the anomalous world as a contingency that anomalies increase at a rapid rate and the Foundation can't contain all of them — to end it once and for all. It uses as many anomalies as possible for its creation (1968, 37973, etc), as well as multiple characters and directors of the Foundation, and testing on multiple anomalies. Finally, there's an indent where the Foundation finally uses it and ends the anomalous world. There's one final message, probably from Aaron Siegel, that says that the world is finally free from the world and for the first time in centuries he questions if it was worth the cost. The ending is the reader reading the article, and decides to post this archive to a forum — linking the end to the original 4chan article of SCP-173.

• Paraprogress Division: This division of the Research and Development Department studies how different paranormal societies (Sarkics, Mekhanites, Three Portlands, Eurtec) advance in terms of technology and science, and how to apply these methods to human culture in the future. The idea came from Mexanik who said the followin:

Mexanik's idea of Paraprogress

Usually scientific and technological progress is based on the strict necessity. If a culture lives in neat conditions, especially natural ones, it doesn't need to change and can even regress. To grow in complexity, it needs some problems to solve. On the other hand, if these conditions are too harsh, all of this culture's strength is spent just for surviving. Also there're many other factors, like the number of people (if a society is too small, there aren't enough people to develop brand new thoughts, and geniuses born too rarely), amount of land and resources, communications with neighbours (especially trading goods and, again, sharing thoughts and discoveries) and even specific cultural traits.

But places like Three Portlands or Eurtec, and R&D's sites too, don't actually fit under these requirements. They make such progress by very different means, like the simple interesting in knowledge, that's literally anomalous for the humankind in general. I mean not the supernatural anomalies, of course, but very unusual purposes and methods.

Motives of Paraprogress:

• Just a form of entertainment - we make new tech because we can, and no other reasons needed. Such a culture could make extremely weird things and find the widest knowledge about the world, as there won't be strictly practical conditions for the financing of its projects. On the other hand, the science is mostly boring and becomes too complicated very fast…
• More philosophical or religious motives - like the Da'at Yichud from «Wolfenstein» games. I'm also sure that ancient druids with their ideas that any knowledge is sacred can be counted as this type too. They surely weren't as advanced in real life as in stories about Asterix and Obelix, but had some cool advancements among the cultures of their era! Unfortunately, this way blocks the possibility of actual progress too easily, or at least makes it too slow comparing to the more common way.
• An already known goal - for example, a deity said what everyone must do, or what exactly to achieve. Then all of this culture's intellectual, physical and other forces should be pointed there, cutting off many not-so-necessary opportunities, but the final aim could be reached much faster. > Someone progresses the civilization from outside, giving it new ideas about science, tech, culture and so on, or even sharing resources. Too many possible variations to predict or classificate them.
• The culture has almost all information about the world from the start, like Tolkien's elves, or can obtain it somehow. The main problem is that such a knowledge isn't enough for understanding what to craft, but more than enough to find a comfort zone and stop developing further.
• A pseudogoal - some sort of a program or aim that points not to the specific future, but present activity. For example, the emendism operates mostly in that way. And noocytes from Greg Bear's «Blood music» had the directive just to make their surroundings better, without any plan or model too.
• Unconscious progress - common among animals, especially termites who create very complicated «arcologies» and keep specific conditions inside. But the sapient creatures would surely choose another style, or be totally incomprehensible for us, like Thu'Asts who don't seem to have anything we could call the true mind.
• An indirect result - obtaining new knowledge and creating new technologies are just side effects of some other activity, possibly beyond the human comprehension. The only more or less appropriate example I can remember at the moment are the Eliants from «Rilme gfurku» - not sure if it was translated to English yet. In short, it's the oldest known civilization in the universe, that consider everyone else «barbarians» with insatiable hunger for knowledge, conquering new worlds and so on. Eliants dropped all of these activities countless centuries ago and just live on their home planet with artificially stabilized weather and other neat things, spending all the time in different fine arts. Also they erased all the scientific information, blueprints and other progress-related files their predecessors created, and don't want to do anything for restoring them. Because they're happy enough already - and what if they'ld discover something too awful to live carelessly after that? So my point there is that they might accidentally learn or invent something new while doing their arts - and that will definitely be totally unwanted for them, even if that's a useful tool…

Meanwhile I found another possible type of paraprogress - the «collectioning» one. A culture makes new inventions and scientific discoveries, focusing not on what it gains, but what it gains, like a form of showing off, trying to be «better than others» in the quality or quantity of things, or making something first inthe world. If these intentions are primal for the progress, then absolute most of such civilizations won't fly higher than «making the most colorful beads» - but if someone manage to succeed much better, it could acheve a lot! Yet the overall level of life can be pretty low there anyways.

• R&D caused the downfall of the Children of Night: Another idea inspired by Mexanik, where he proposed that since the Children of the Night had the most technologically advanced civilization in Earth's history, R&D would be interested in obtaining some of that lost paratech. R&D would use a time travel machine to go back in time, but an unknown event caused the Children of the Night to fall as the greatest civilization. This causes a paradox where R&D can go back in time to reverse their mistake, but by doing so they will cause that the cause behind R&D going in the first place, doesn't happen.

• Prometheus keeps Prometheus Labs Alive — and the GOC Killed Him:

The Fallen Prometheans

He also could be a humanoid manifestation of a more abstract force, since there're lots of other gods of knowledge, and many of them seem to fit the specific GoIs better… By the way, did I send you my thoughts about the possible nature of Akiva and other divine things? I definitely discussed them with someone, yet pretty long ago X) Well, I'll copy them here anyways.

So, the thaumaturgical stuff and Akiva are based on the same natural (or supernatural) laws. There's some sort of particles that represent «abstract meanings and concepts» rather than math parameters. They can coalesce together to form «atoms and molecules» with more complex meanings, and lots of things like souls are made from that «substance» too. The right «chemical idea» in sufficient quality and quantity affects the structure of reality, causing anomalous phenomena respectively to its «internal meaning» - but that's usually not 100% predictable effect because these particles are too abstract in their fundamental nature.

Mage uses his mind as a sort of alchemical lab to distillate and change structure of this idea-matter, or create his own «chemicals» and spread them around. Well, literally everyone and everything produce some «meanings», creating a general background, some sort of «noosphere» maybe, but thaumaturgists and lots of anomalous things do that stronger and more focused.

Gods and other divine entities work mostly the same way, just on a larger scale. They're strong enough to fill a huge territory or even the whole world with their «molecules», and that's not just a weak background but strong «chemicals» that react with other's concepts in complex ways. For example, an action that counts as «sin» in some religion undergoes a «chemical reaction» with that god's Akiva background, causing something bad. And vice versa, «righteous» deeds trigger another type of reaction, with more favorable effects. Sacred artifacts, places and even creatures accumulate or attract that sort of radiation too.

Akiva also acts as both gifts of a certain god and his immediate presence. Because a god isn't just a very strong being, but literally a living embodiment of certain ideas or things. And if, for example, the heat of a human body is a separate object, the radiation of a deity is still that deity's «body» - like everything else related to it.

Bowe Commission & Project "Pandora's Box"

TIMELINE

February 21, 2002: The Bowe Commission becomes an official (albeit black ops) avenue of cooperation between the Foundation & the US government, focused on joint operations making use of anomalous weaponry.

November 5, 2002: The SCP Foundation and the Bowe Commission establish MTF Omega-7 as a joint effort with the Bowe Commission, centered around SCP-076-2.

March 20, 2003: A joint coalition of 26 countries led by the United States begins the invasion of Iraq under the suspicion that the Hussein regime withheld weapons of mass destruction – the invasion of Iraq is used as a testing ground for the use of “Team Able” and Mobile Task Force Omega-7.

August 27, 2004: SCP-105 is recruited into MTF Omega-7. SCP-105 is relocated, alongside the entirety of “Team Iris”, to Site-19.

October 10th, 2004 - Adrian Adnrews in recruited into the SCP Foundation

November 19th, 2004 - Operation: "Fever Cleaning"

March 2006- 076 slaughter Omega-7. Area-25-B goes Kaboom.

March 27, 2006: The Bowe Commission is disbanded and General Willis Bowe is fired from the Foundation, but officially stated as an MIA in the Area-25 incident. President George W. Bush orders General Bowe to move to Area-51 alongside with his wife Nancy, and is transferred to work at a desk job.

Philip Grant: Perfectionistic, ambitious yet cautious & cold-ish in his job chief of the Inter-Anomaly Experimentation Department under Dr. Joseph Carver’s directorship. Before joining the Foundation, Dr. Grant was an important scientist in RAND Corporation specializing in the anomalous defense industry, which led him to build important connections with multiple federal agencies. After being recruited in the Foundation in the late 1980s Dr. Grant became a prominent specialist in the applied usage of SCP objects. Being a self-confident person capable of taking any risks, Grant, going through many ups and downs, was able to become a new Chief of Inter-Anomaly Experimentation in late 1990s.

Taking advantage of his new position, Grant quickly started several cross-testing programs dedicated to identifying most useful and most lethal anomalous objects. Dr. Grant is also known as a person who first proposed idea of 'cross-containment'.

During the beginning of Department of Defense and the SCP Foundation cooperation in the 2002, Grant was actively trying to push Bowe Commission to utilize sentient anomalies and was one of the originators of Mobile Task force Omega-7. Shortly after Project "Pandora's Box" began, Grant quickly became the right hand of General Bowe and assisting director of Project itself, while also willingly was Overseeing Team "Overkill" (Able). Dr. Grant's intense passion for work revealed mild Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, which manifested itself in a desire to use all possible resources and assets of the Foundation for 'grand' projects.
The seeming obsession with the project lead to the proposal of involving SCP-105 in it.

Following the events of March 2006 and the closure of all departments and programs related to cross testing, Grant was suspended and demoted. Transferred to Area-354 to an Administrative position. Due to the terrible grief and depression Grant suffered, he was prescribed numerous medications to maintain his sanity. As a result, he became alcohol-addicted. He died in his office from liver failure.

Harrison Morris: Nicknamed “Fed” by most people, Agent Morris was a former Central Intelligence Agency secret agent and operative from the Directorate of Operations. After the downfall of the Soviet Union, he joined the SCP Foundation to work as part of the Bureau of Personnel Integrity, heavily working alongside ISD and SD. A few years later, he’d be contacted and promoted as Overseer of Intelligence for the Bowe Commission, in charge of collecting intelligence from anomalous clients for operations relating to the Bowe Commission. Discreet, quiet, and mysterious, most of the time people never saw his eyes because of always wearing sunglasses, and myths and rumors surrounding his persona never stopped. After the disbandment of the Bowe Commission, he disappeared without leaving a trace, without any clue or where he might have gone.

Joseph Carver: Director of the R&D Department during the Bowe Commission, and widely regarded as the man who temporarily returned R&D to its former glory and could have achieved greater accomplishments had he not been expelled from his position. An upbeat man native to Huntsville, trained as a scientist in the Directorate of Science and Technology (CIA) and later transferred to Pentagram to finally join the Foundation’s R&D Department. Charming, witty, and extravagant, considered R&D’s first “mad scientist” to hold the position of the director. Ousted Director William Robert Graham with the help of his nephew Willis Bowe, helping him the expansion of R&D’s production of paraweaponry and eigenweaponry in the first of the War on Terror, as well as with heavily involving R&D in the Bowe Commission and Mobile Task Force Omega-7. One of the most tragic victims of Zero syndrome, which caused his developing Alzheimer's and Parkinson’s to worsen, eventually dying in 2016 before the Foster Conspiracy unraveled.

Possible Bowe Lines

"Grant, don't embarrass me. I was the commander of Delta Force, not a teenager's educator."

"Yes, I read the reports. I KNOW that Able himself agreed to take her, but… Fuck, you understand how absurd it even sounds to have her on the same team as Able? Why can't we just make an extra support Task Force and stuff her in there"

"As much as i'd like to have a full control over the Omega-7 i cannot take responsibility for a maximalist teenager. One mistake and Ethics Committee will slap me like a fly."

"I hope Ghost and Dantensen will handle her for now, this will require me to do some paperwork and revise the organisation of the task force…"
"What i am supposed to say to the Secretary of Defense? "Yeah, we found a teenage girl who can take photos, so she's definitely a worthy candidate for Omega-7!"- you want me to say that or what?!"
"It wasn't even my idea to be begin with!"
Bowe about SCP-105 in Omega-7


Bowe freezing in shock the first time he sees 105 & 076 near each other
"I fucking told you scumbags to keep that batshit girl AWAY from HIM. Do- Do you UNDERSTAND the consequences that could’ve been?! She was THIS close to the receiving most brutal death imaginable. If you do something like this without at least informing me I swear to God I will get you all publicly executed."

"Philip, you fucking maniac."

"Hey, it all worked out. Omega-7 is gold to go."
Grant and Bowe

Questions about the Resurrection timeline during Omega-7

1. What happens in the span of time after Duke Till Dawn but before Incident Zero²?

• Explore how the two camps inside the Foundation react and act after Duke Till Dan and Incident 239-B Clef/Kondraki about utilizing SCPs — mainly those against anomalies (Ethics Committee and general personnel) and pro-anomalous (Bowe Commission, senior staff, and R&D).
• During the reconstruction of Site-19 after Duke Till Dawn, explore how the Bowe Commission expands and increases its influence in the Foundation and how it affects Bowe's ego.
• During this period of reconstruction and the chaos that has happened, Bowe looks for potential candidates that are later integrated into Alpha-9 (SCP-2273 for example).
• Why Able has become more unstable and bloodthirsty before Incident Zero.
• Bowe organizes some operations to move on from the incidents.
• Considering the Commission helped rebuild Site-19 and quarantine the anomalous areas of the site, R&D will be heavily involved in researching and finding new methods to utilize these facilities.
• Bowe makes some favors to save Kondraki after the incident with Duke and Sigurros.
• Problems with other GoIs, especially the Chaos Insurgency and paranormal terrorists during the War on Terror.

2. Why did Able go after The Bloom in the 784/AA timeline?
Able doesn't want to destroy the bloom since he saw himself doing it in other timelines

He goes on a rampage against Omega-7 to prevent anyone from sending them to Yellowstone. Nobody will send Omega-7 to Yellowstone if there is no Omega-7. And Incident Zero begins once Area-25-B is detonated by the nuke.
3. Who sent Team Able to Yellowstone in the Zero timeline?
General Bowe sent Team Able because the O5s were busy fixing the situation with The Bloom and because he's the Director of Omega-7 and the Commission, he decided to take action. Of course, it goes completely off the rails with Able destroying The Bloom.
4. What and why did Able vanish in the 784/AA timeline?
The Bloom vanished Able because of the merging of the timelines.
5. How did the Foundation turn Adrian into Andrea despite the critical state in SCP-784-ARC?
For her memories, the Foundation MKUltra Adrian to not remember Omega-7. Meanwhile, since Adrian was SCP-784-ARC, they employed the help of Kain Pathos Crow to help Adrian by transitioning him into Andrea Adams — this is implied because Subject Zero was the main subject of Olympia Project, and Andrea became Clef's assistant shortly after.

Structure of Alpha-9:
Some of these might only have one or two people who are dedicated to them, and the rest are field team members filling those roles when they're not in the field.

Show Alpha-9 structure

• Mobility: This will be their team that makes sure everyone is good to "deploy." They handle things like transport, passports, plane tickets. They make sure any specific training for a given area is undertaken, like a quick course in local culture, or anti-terrorism in the middle east.
• Training: They schedule the training needed to keep the team current on whatever is needed for their job. Survival training, weapons training, things like that. If Mobility says someone needs a given training course, Training will arrange it.
• Command: This is the administrative department. They make sure everyone's paperwork is good to go. Everything from personnel evaluation reports to awards and decs. If someone transfers in or out, or goes on a temporary duty elsewhere, they make sure that all paperwork is handled for that.
  • Ethics: Not actually part of Alpha-9, but rather a liaison for external monitoring.
  • Scheduling: Puts together crews for training events, and makes sure any major scheduled events are in the software we use to plan out people's schedules.
  • Security: They're not security in the sense of guards, that's site security. They make sure everyone's clearances are up to date. They also make sure everyone is up to date on op sec. If someone sees an op sec or other security violation, they'll report it here, and they'll interface with internal security.
• Resource Advisor: They hold the purse strings for the unit. They make sure everything's paid for. They say "We have the money to do this." They aren't really in charge of regular pay (there would be an external finance unit for that), but they make sure that you file your paperwork when you need to rent a car or buy a plane ticket for duty, and that you get any TDY (temporary duty) pay you're supposed to get.
• Tactics / Weapons: They figure out what works. They maintain the intel publications. Things like reports on other groups, capabilities of certain weapon systems, known frequencies and the like. Also the capabilities of Foundation gear and tech, recommended or mandated tactics, things like that. They also help plan training exercises to make sure people can use those tactics.
  • Intelligence: Their job isn't to gather intel, it's to interface with those who do from outside Alpha 9, and then feed that to the team (and then write up information Alpha 9 gets and feed it back out to the rest of the Foundation).
• Engineering, Research, and Tech: Kain's team. Q-Branch.
  • Equipment shop: They'll make sure that everyone has whatever equipment they're supposed to have. Weapons, gear, that sort of thing.
• Medical: Mann's team. Fixes people up; both Med and Psych. (God help us.) Makes sure anomalous agents can use their abilities; finds better ways for them to do so.
• Field Team: Actually out in the field.

Timeline of Events

Moved to my sandbox
- Filipp

Characters

• Alfred Dax Mulhausen: Director of the Department for Applied Force, General Mulhausen was involved in the military enforcement of projects such as SCP-006 and SCP-4099. General Mulausen has had a lengthy military career with the Foundation, participating in the Invasion of the Wanderer's Library of 1986, the Serpent's Hand Assault of 2006, and the Foster Conspiracy. Considered a part of the Foundation's old guard that won't just die.
• Note from Filipp: He probably retires somewhere before 2015. He's born like in early 1940s

• Agent O'Connor:

• Allison Chao: One of the many Black Queen instances, daughter of Dr. Charles Gears and Miss Chao. Abandoned by her father at a young age, fearful of the world she didn't understand, she joined the Serpent's Hand to acquire knowledge at the Wanderer's Library. However, disagreements and personal experience caused her defection from the Serpent’s Hand — joining the Foundation after a failed mission, working under the codename of "White Rose". Analytical and knowledgeable, and with a deep desire for revenge, she will reconnect with Dr. Gears and find the reason why her world turned upside down.

• August Bennet: Chief of the Security Department of Site-150. Former advisor and agent for the National Security Agency and the Department of Defense, who joined the Foundation as the Overseer of Security for the Bowe Commission and Omega-7 (“Pandora’s Box”). After the disbandment of the Commission, he became the Chief of Security by order of Tabitha Foster. A conservative patriot who supported Bowe to the end and always did his duty, but eventually stopped supporting the remaining Boweists for their aggressiveness to the Foundation, and was directly involved in the crackdown of the Foster Conspiracy. Regrets ever helping with putting down the conspiracy and is one of the key scapegoats for R&D personnel to blame the department’s current state. After the conspiracy, he became one of the members of the Board of Directors of Site-150.

• Damien O'Connor: Former member of Michael Collins’ assassination unit called “The Squad”, he became a mobile task force commander after the War of Independence in Ireland and fought for the side of the Triad during the Foundation Civil War. Unwilling to concede defeat, he gathered the remaining tried remnants to rebuild their strengths – becoming one, if not the, most important founders of the Chaos Insurgency. Fiery orator, gifted strategist, and charismatic, O’Connor laid the style of fighting, ideological foundations, and goals of the Insurgency, later forming Delta Command and proclaiming himself as The Engineer. Damien O’Connor, now remembered as The Engineer, continues to be the inspiration for many Insurgents – even if his original Insurgency is long gone from what he envisioned.

• Dave Hynek:

• D.C Al Fine: Under-Secretary General of the United Nations Global Occult Coalition, most of her personal information is unknown aside from being an European woman of unknown age and nationality. Directly involved with the management of anomalous relationships during the Interwar period while working under the League of Nations, as well as multiple campaigns in the Seventh Occult War. Originally conflicted with the approach of the GOC towards anomalous, undecided between cooperation or complete extermination – change of perspective because of the genocide of reality benders during the Ichabod Campaign.

• Douglas MacArthur: General of the Army of the United States and Director of Majestic-12. Greatly intelligent, brilliant strategic generalship, ambitious and conqueror, and extremely prideful. Appointed as the Director of the Council of Twelve in Majestic-12 after being fired as the Commander of the United Nations Army in the Korean War. Expanded American interests in the anomalous world, pushing for the weaponization of UFOs and anomalies. Ousted by General Stan Bowe in 1961.

• Eric Reynolds: Personal secretary and assistant of Tabitha Foster during her directorship. Graduated from Caltech with a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Eric Reynolds went to work for several private and public cybersecurity agencies, and caught the attention of Harrison Morris and became part of the Intelligence Division of the Bowe Commission. During this time, he met Tabitha Foster who he became close friend and admirer of. After the disbandment of the Commission, Eric became an emotional support for Tabitha during her initial months of her directorship as well as her coping companion after Carver’s retirement. Hard-working, smart, and loyal, Eric Reynolds proposed himself as the new assistant of Director Foster, and became the right hand of Foster’s negotiations and actions against the O5 Council and the Ethics Committee – while the relationship between the two was initially genuine, with Foster’s spiral downwards, she kept Eric not only for his desire to help her, but also because Tabitha projected her old self onto him and saw herself as the mentor of Eric who needed to always listen to her. There would be multiple rumors that Tabitha and Eric had an affair, but this is unconfirmed. Eric Ryan’s death would come because of Tabitha’s aggressiveness to the O5 Council, after an incident between ISD and R&D during Christmas Eve, and as the final nail to the start of the Foster Conspiracy.

• Eugene Kowalski: Also known as “Gene”, Mr. Kowalski was an accountant that worked for Prometheus Paraeconomics, and tasked with finding new viable, economic strategies to save the slow decline of Prometheus Laboratories – one of his strategies was to bailout Prometheus Laboratories and become a subsidiary for the United States government. While this strategy didn’t work, it didn’t help him to get in contact with the Pentagram, and would later be contacted by Willis Bowe to become his personal accountant and later Head of Accounting for the Bowe Commission – in charge of the finances and usage of the budget given to the Foundation, he was the man behind the organization and location of the money sent to the Commission. After Incident Zero, Mr. Kowalski was one of the few Bowe members that was kept in the Foundation, and became the Chief of the Accounting Department under Director Tabitha Foster, until his replacement by Rockefeller.AIC.

• Evelyn Eden: Former member of the Serpent’s Hand, who left the group because of the lack of an organized, central leadership to fight against the Foundation and the ideological disagreements with the Little Sisters’ and many Hand members. Joined the Chaos Insurgency, only to find out that Delta Command also failed at this. She decided to take matters into her own hands, and studied the history of the Insurgency, and finding out about copies of A New Manifesto, Damian O’Connor’s speeches, and Slate Thunder Procedure – these documents, combined with her belief in Gnosticism and its philosophy, led her to join forces with the most extreme factions of the Insurgency. Together with The Mage and Alexander Michaels, she proclaimed herself as The Philosopher and formed The Heirs of The Engineer. Self-proclaimed historian, philologist, philosopher, archeologist, and ideologist, she does not have any anomalous abilities or high-level combat training – her words and cult-level charisma is her greatest strength, and has quickly become the ideological backbone of her own group that expands to the rest of the Insurgency.

• Frederick Bowe: Nicknamed “Fred”, cousin of Willis Bowe. Instead of following the family tradition, Fred decided to study International Affairs in West Point, and joined the Pentagram to work directly with the foreign affairs of the United States in the anomalous world, with the purpose of nurturing more cooperative and peaceful relationships with members of the Council of 108 after the multiple incidents where the Pentagram was kicked out of the Coalition. People’s person, diplomatic, honest, and a great negotiator, Frederick Bowe was always pressured since his Uncle Stan’s death that he’ll probably be the next in line to face SCP-935 – which he did in 2000, and winning honestly against it and finally ending the curse of the Bowe family. Frederick Bowe would become the Pentagram Liaison for the Council of 108 in 1998, who would push the Bowe Commission to gather support from the multiple normalcy organizations.

• Frederick Williams: The Administrator of the SCP Foundation and its oldest, original founder. A Pluripotent Entity with a human form that was spontaneously involved in the most important events of Earth’s development, and directly involved after the Sixth Occult War – taking the human form of Frederick Williams. The personification of a living threshold between normalcy and the anomalous, and a constant crosser between the two worlds while using the Veil as his gate. While people have seen his true form of emanating energy as “intimidating” and “incomprehensible”, genuinely caring and benevolent to the human and anomalous races of the world and its protection.

• Filipp Serebrovsky: R&D Head Technician. Prior to joining the Foundation, he worked as an archivist of the Moscow State Library and discovered unrecovered “Progress” Research Institute documents and tried to retrieve them for research, catching the attention of the Foundation. A laid back friendly person, who’s a routine person, sometimes irritable and nervous, all in for a healthy lifestyle who despises alcohol and cigarettes. Tries to find out information above his clearance, causing problems with his superiors.

• George Mueller: An electrical engineer who headed the Office of Manned Space Flight in NASA, as well as leading the Foundation Space Program, providing the adequate infrastructure for Foundation space exploration and alien contact. Key figure in the relationships between the Foundation and “Progress” Research Institute, and considered one of the most “brilliant and fearless managers” both in NASA and R&D. In 1969 he retired from his position as Director of R&D, joining the Overseer Council as O5-5 – despite his position, continued influencing NASA projects through Factotums. Avid supporter of experimental paratechnology and constant defender of his former department.

• Harrison Morris: Nicknamed “Fed” by most people, Agent Morris was a former Central Intelligence Agency secret agent and operative from the Directorate of Operations. After the downfall of the Soviet Union, he joined the SCP Foundation to work as part of the Bureau of Personnel Integrity, heavily working alongside ISD and SD. A few years later, he’d be contacted and promoted as Overseer of Intelligence for the Bowe Commission, in charge of collecting intelligence from anomalous clients for operations relating to the Bowe Commission. Discreet, quiet, and mysterious, most of the time people never saw his eyes because of always wearing sunglasses, and myths and rumors surrounding his persona never stopped. After the disbandment of the Bowe Commission, he disappeared without leaving a trace, without any clue or where he might have gone.

• Henry Callahan: Second director of R&D after Sternberg’s expulsion. Silently charismatic and extremely efficient – an expert in logistics and civil engineering, responsible for the expansion of the most important sites in the continental United States and of R&D’s expansion in America, including the acquisition of Huntsville Arsenal and its reconstruction into Site-150. Constantly tried to take von Sternberg’s position, taking advantage of von Sternberg’s situation while stuck in the middle of the Seventh Occult War. Considered the savior of the department from being abolished by the O5 Council. Callahan’s ideological belief in Howard Scott’s technocratic movement and Ayn’s Rand Objectivism inspired him to establish the principles for R&D’s system of thinking and purpose as a department inside the Foundation.

• Leonard Barrett:

• Insurgent.AIC:

• Joe Biden: 46th President of the United States of America, who is currently classified as SCP-XXXX, a Joe Biden brought from another universe affected with Multiversal Dementia from multiversal travel, that replaced this universe Joe Biden. Person of Interest XXXX is our universe’s Joe Biden, who left the United States Senate to work at the Pentagram to reform the Bowe Commission after its disbandment. After an incident that affected Foundation-Pentagram relations, Joe Biden met with Mary Abigail Bowe and formed the Sons of Bowe, with the goal to reestablish American dominance in the anomalous world. It is suspected that Joe Biden has trained and learned thaumaturgy, after a failed mission led by Agent Thomas Petrakis to capture him.

• John D. Rockefeller: The wealthiest man in the history of the United States, as well as one of the main financiers of the Foundation – both before and after it became the SCP Foundation. Personally connected with Amos Marshall, Aaron Siegel, and Frederick Williams, Mr. Rockefeller lived long enough to see the Sixth Occult War, the rise of normalcy institutions, and the outcome of the Foundation Civil War. In desperate need, the O5 Council requested financial support for reconstruction – Rockefeller went from a power hungry, arrogant, and avaricious businessman, to an old, frail, and philanthropic socialite that supported his old connections once they needed him. Through the Rockefeller Foundation, Mr. Rockefeller financially supported the Foundation to reconstruct after the Civil War, in exchange for several anomalies. Mr. Rockefeller would die in 1937, with his son John Jr. taking his mantle, and integrating the Rockefeller Foundation in the Council of 108.

• Jonathan Onton:

• Joseph Carver: Director of the R&D Department during the Bowe Commission, and widely regarded as the man who temporarily returned R&D to its former glory and could have achieved greater accomplishments had he not been expelled from his position. An upbeat man native to Huntsville, trained as a scientist in the Directorate of Science and Technology (CIA) and later transferred to Pentagram to finally join the Foundation’s R&D Department. Charming, witty, and extravagant, considered R&D’s first “mad scientist” to hold the position of the director. Ousted Director William Robert Graham with the help of his nephew Willis Bowe, helping him the expansion of R&D’s production of paraweaponry and eigenweaponry in the first of the War on Terror, as well as with heavily involving R&D in the Bowe Commission and Mobile Task Force Omega-7. One of the most tragic victims of Zero syndrome, which caused his developing Alzheimer's and Parkinson’s to worsen, eventually dying in 2016 before the Foster Conspiracy unraveled.

• Karl Rosenbaum:

• Madison Steele:

• Mary Bowe: Full name Mary Abigail Bowe, eldest daughter of Willis Bowe. Former United States Marine, who supported his father during the Bowe Commission as the Overseer of Strategic Planning, designated with overviewing operations and the planification of such. Serious, strict, and an even greater hardline Boweist than her father ever was, who remained in the Foundation after the expulsion of her father and the disbandment of the Commission. After the death of Director Kondraki shortly after Incident Zero, rallied the remaining Boweists to revolt against the Foundation, which ended in failure and her exile from the Foundation. Hatefully, she exiled herself into the group that her father fought against: the Chaos Insurgency, and formed her own faction with the support of Joe Biden, the Sons of Bowe.

• Michael Sechenov:

• Nicholas Akimov: Popularly nicknamed as “Commie Nick”, Dr. Akimov was the successor of Director George Mueller, taking over the R&D Department from 1969 until his death in 1989 – becoming the director with the longest directorship of both the department and R&D. Quiet and mostly kept to himself, but always enamored R&D personnel for his child-like optimism and hope for the future, and tried to continue the Foundation Space Program despite failures such as the Apollo 13 incident and inner space projects. One of his biggest successes was the administrative reforms inside Site-150, which divided the R&D Department into its own internal divisions inspired by his trip into the Soviet Union and arriving at the “Progress” Research Institute. Accused of being a communist by pro-American and anti-communist scientists inside the department and outside Site-150, a position he never denied adhering to, causing a great division between supporters of Dr. Akimov and the anti-communist, pro-American faction inside R&D. Director Akimov would fall into a huge depression after the Space Shuttle Challenger Disaster and the disappearance of the 217 “Progress” RI’s scientists in 1989, eventually dying during his directorship. His death is popularly considered the end of “R&D’s Golden Age”.

• Norman Myers: Site-19 R&D Researcher, Chief of the Cybernetics Division. Native of Youngstown, child of a working class family surrounded by the decadent manufacturing industry of the Rust Belt, with his distraction being the science fiction books he read and the dreams of making a name for himself. Diagnosed as a genius at a young age, he worked his way to study at a prestigious college to become a scientist and leave a legacy in the scientific community. Bachelor of Science in Biotechnology and Ph.D. in Mechatronics, he joined the Foundation with the hopes of making a break in a field not yet discovered. Norman Myers was involved in unethical human experimentation, for which he was delegated to the R&D Department. It is questioned if his loyalty to Dr. Tabitha Foster or the Foundation was genuine, and unknown if his fear of being forgotten remains.

• Otto von Sternberg: Nephew of O5-7 “The Visionary”, and the first Director of the Research and Development Department. Part of the German Jewish aristocracy, he studied Theoretical Physics and Applied Chemistry at the University of Göttingen, obtaining a doctorate and becoming a member of Leopoldina. Immediately joined the Foundation by recommendation of his uncle, Reinhardt von Sternberg, and worked in the fields of anomalous mathematics and psionics. Retired temporarily to support the German Empire in the war effort, and returned to the Foundation with his experience in the military. His experience at the war caused him to become a supporter of the Foundation using anomalies for its containment purposes but also to expand scientific knowledge – despite this, he stood against the Triad, and was obligated to work in multiple projects aimed at weaponizing anomalies. He was eventually captured, and almost executed, had it not been for his uncle. Professor von Sternberg was appointed to oversee the recovery of lost anomalies in the civil war, and the reconstruction of the Foundation in Europe. He was surrounded by enemies, both inside and outside of the Foundation, leading to the outbreak of the Seventh Occult War and the attempt of fleeing the continent – he failed, and was obligated to work under Colonel Klaus Dressler, overseeing numerous “wonder weapons” projects as he saw his men slowly die in the Holocaust. He was saved by the Archangel Michael, who cured his failing vision and caused him to become a devout Christian – he spent the rest of his life in Philadelphia, asking for repentance to God.

• Philip Grant: Perfectionistic, ambitious yet cautious & cold-ish in his job chief of the Inter-Anomaly Experimentation Department under Dr. Joseph Carver’s directorship. Before joining the Foundation, Dr. Grant was an important scientist in RAND Corporation specializing in the anomalous defense industry, which led him to build important connections with multiple federal agencies. After being recruited in the Foundation in the late 1980s Dr. Grant became a prominent specialist in the applied usage of SCP objects. Being a self-confident person capable of taking any risks, Grant, going through many ups and downs, was able to become a new Chief of Inter-Anomaly Experimentation in late 1990s.

Taking advantage of his new position, Grant quickly started several cross-testing programs dedicated to identifying most useful and most lethal anomalous objects. Dr. Grant is also known as a person who first proposed idea of 'cross-containment'.

During the beginning of Department of Defense and the SCP Foundation cooperation in the 2002, Grant was actively trying to push Bowe Commission to utilize sentient anomalies and was one of the originators of Mobile Task force Omega-7. Shortly after Project "Pandora's Box" began, Grant quickly became the right hand of General Bowe and assisting director of Project itself, while also willingly was Overseeing Team "Overkill" (Able). Dr. Grant's intense passion for work revealed mild Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, which manifested itself in a desire to use all possible resources and assets of the Foundation for 'grand' projects.
The seeming obsession with the project lead to the proposal of involving SCP-105 in it.

Following the events of March 2006 and the closure of all departments and programs related to cross testing, Grant was suspended and demoted. Transferred to Area-354 to an Administrative position. Due to the terrible grief and depression Grant suffered, he was prescribed numerous medications to maintain his sanity. As a result, he became alcohol-addicted. He died in his office from liver failure.

• Reinhardt von Sternberg:

• Robin Michaels:

• Sadie Bowe: Youngest daughter of Willis Bowe, and Willis’ favorite of his two daughters. Enthusiastic, whimsical, and determined, Sadie wanted to be part of the Air Force since she was child, achieving the rank of Staff Sergeant before joining the Foundation and working as a volunteer for SCP-5514 – which catapulted her to form a part in various projects led by the R&D Department involving robots and aircraft testing. While a part of the Bowe Commission, remained on the front and directly involved in many missions that could’ve ended her life, despite the wishes of Willis to keep herself safe. After Incident Zero, she had to face off against a volatile operative attached to SCP-5514, which led to the death of her boyfriend, a prominent R&D scientist, despite saving the facility. With her boyfriend dead, her father expelled, and her sister exiled, Sadie found herself rejoining the anomalous branch of the Air Force, with a new melancholic demeanor veiled behind her uplifting persona.

• Samuel Michaels:

• Stan Bowe: United States General and scientist graduated from West Point, father of Willis Bowe. Loud, harsh, and a “my way or highway” individual, General Stan Bowe started his career in covert operations in the Korean War under the Pentagram, eventually joining Majestic-12 and becoming its director. A hardline McCarthyist, he spent most of his career hunting down communists both inside and outside the Veil, getting involved in operations in Vietnam, Japan, Korea, and working with the CIA. He formed the first Bowe Commission after becoming the Head Researcher of SCP-935, eventually dying after trying to neutralize SCP-935.

• Tabitha Foster: Director of R&D after the retirement of Dr. Joseph Carver until 2016. Protege of Dr. Carver all the way back when he met him while working for the Pentagram, as well as a great admirer of him, and eventually became Dr. Carver’s personal assistant after he became the Director of R&D. Shy, modest, and extremely efficient for her role as personal assistant and advisor for Joseph Carver, being the voice of reason for Dr. Carver many times during projects. After the disbandment of Omega-7 and the Bowe Commission, because of the last wish from Dr. Carver was chosen as the department’s successor – becoming the first and only female director in the department’s history. The pressure of gaining support and funding from the O5 Council after the mass hysteria caused by the nuking of Area-25 towards anomalous weaponization led her to becoming stressed and pessimistic about her role as R&D’s director. A series of events lead her to a downward spiral, causing her to become an arrogant, harsh, and aggressive leader who constantly critiqued the O5 Council and the Ethics Committee – gaining the support from most of the R&D Department and the remaining Boweists, and fueling the polarized climate between anti-anomalous and pro-anomalous camps in the Foundation. After misunderstandings and skirmishes between the Security Department, Ethics Committee, and R&D, she conspired alongside most of R&D’s senior staff to oust the O5 Council and bring a new era to the Foundation – the Foster Conspiracy was discovered, and Director Foster was captured and executed. This event caused the current state of R&D: a dismantled, disorganized department that fell from grace, caused by Foster's promise and later delusion to bring Carver’s dream to life.

• Tilda David Moose: Site Director of Site-19, and its youngest leader. A Type Blue user, who defected from the Serpent's Hand after the Serpent's Hand Assault of 2006. Tilda Moose graduated from Deer College with a Ph.D. in Thaumaturgy, but has worked in multiple fields of study. A participative, cooperative, and beautiful leader, she quickly rose through her ranks because of her ambition to reform the Foundation from the inside, but has found rivals from the old guard of Site-19 and the extremists inside personnel — still, her belief that change can happen is what keeps her popular and going, even if her mental health is not in her favor.

• Thomas Graham: Site DIrector of Site-17. Organized, disciplined, and obedient, always achieving the tasks his superiors request. Considered a middle-aged, grumpy bureaucrat of the Foundation, Director Graham uses this image to hide his true self: a man obsessed with control, that will do anything in his power to keep his grip over Site-17. Army veteran with a Doctorate in Biochemistry, his strict discipline and harshness are his justification to push the limits of science and research at the site.

• William Robert Graham: A disgraced yes man that worked under President Reagan as the Administrator of NASA in his presidency for only five months before resigning by pressure from Reagan because of his failure in the Space Shuttle Challenger Incident. While officially working for the private sector, Graham was sent to work for R&D as punishment until he received the role as Director of the Research and Development Department. While not incompetent or unintelligent in any manner, his lack of experience with the anomalous and the inner workings of the department caused him to become an unpopular leader during his management, accused of the department’s stagnation and incapable of handling the Paratech Bubble Burst. Was ousted by General Bowe and Dr. Joseph Carver with the support of O5-6 and O5-5.

• Willis Alan Bowe: Son of Stan Bowe, who followed the family tradition of working in the United States Army involved with the anomalous. Despite the negative fame of his father, he turned out the complete opposite of Stan: friendly, polite, and always smiling – but completely ruthless and prideful who wouldn't doubt of taking someone out of his way if necessary. Successor of the Bowe Commission and the mastermind behind Pandora’s Box. After Incident Zero, he was fired from his contract with the Foundation and sent to a desk job in Area-51.

WW1 veteran and heavily involved with the Foundation-side of Operation: Paperclip to recover Nazi scientists and R&D scientists stuck in Europe. Hardline anti-communist McCarthyist and pro-American. First Director of Pentagram and Delegate of the US Government to the Foundation. A general asshole who constantly barks orders, yet a great organizer and tactician.

• General Willis Alan Bowe

Son of Stan Bowe. Unlike his father, favorable to the Foundation but still keeping American interests in mind. A fan of the military-industrial complex and weaponization of anomalous technology and humanoid SCPs.

---

Thomas Graham: Current Site Director of Site-17. Organized, disciplined, and extremely obedient, always achieving the results his superiors ask him to. Most people see him as another Foundation bureaucrat, he uses this perception to hide his true facade: a man obsessed with control that will do everything in his power to keep his grip over what happens at Site-17. US Army veteran with a Doctorate of Chemical Engineering, specializing in molecular engineering. Believes in strict discipline and organization to the point of harshness, with the purpose of advancing scientific research in the facility.

"Graham's Backstage"

For the "Graham Team" it can be that they think the reason why Omega-7 got fucked up is that Bowe wasn't tight enough on Able & Iris. They rely on STRICT discipline and Organization of things. Since Able went rouge they "took lesson" from it and that is the reason why they are harsh on humanoids and doing all what they do. In their mind they just "Preventing another Area-25" and making "something that Bowe couldn't". And what Bowe couldn't? He couldn't do shit for Science and so they also doing all this in the name of it (Science).

"Team Graham" is not, in fact, the entire Administration of Site-17 or something like that. Not at all. The fact is that they are in some way "conspirators", supporters of all this may even be quite small in number, but they are in all layers of the Fund from top to bottom. They do NOT target all anomalies in Site-17, they only look at a few and do everything in a certain "secrecy" and therefore, for example, everything is fine for 105 and 073.

Graham doesn't directly involve himself in any of this. Yes, he participates in things like voting and conferences, but he usually doesn't give "harsh" orders directly

T. Graham keeps the image of "Late Middle Aged Grumbling Annoying Bureaucrat" for the others. The more you know him, the more fucked up he gets.

"Graham Team" would have a Project of and heavy/elite security force which consists out of people who underwent SCP-212 to rely less on Task Forces and do better at preventing breaches.

He needs to keep his hands clean in order to remain in the position of director of Site-17 and not repeat the fate of Kondraki.

Factions

Even inside Groups of Interest, factionalism and conflictive interests exist, to a lesser or greater extent.

For the Foundation:

For the Serpent's Hand:

• Dinodon's Hand: Korean Branch of the Serpent's Hand, originally known as the "Underground Taoists" deserted from Joseon's Dynasty Paranormal Agency in 1701. Met with the predecessors of the Serpent's Hand in IWW in 1910, revamped to Dinodon's Society in 1919. Reorganized in the 1970s under "Dinodon's Hand". Politically anarcho-syndicalist.

• The Unabomber Brotherhood: An extremist faction of the Serpent's Hand that follows the philosophy of Theodore Kaczynski's manifesto — Industrial Society and Its Future — that uses terrorist tactics against paratechnological groups such as the former Prometheus Laboratories, Anderson Robotics, and the Foundation's Research and Development Department. It believes in the Unabomber's philosophy that technology has caused the suppression of human potential and the exploitation of nature and thinks that paratechnology is an unnatural practice that must be destroyed so that humanity may return to its natural state. Their ideology consists mostly of an anarcho-primitivist worldview.

For the Insurgency:

• The Heirs of the Engineer: A small faction of the Chaos Insurgency that proclaims itself to be the ideological descendant of The Engineer and his philosophy. Proclaims that the disorganization and factionalism inside the Insurgency will mark their grave, and believes that only through the enforcement of Delta Command's role as the "Council of the Insurgency" under their rule while unite them against the Foundation and GOC. Lead by the proclaimed Triumvirate of The Mechanic, The Philosopher, and The Mage. Their goal is to unite the Insurgency to be a formidable foe against the Foundation and enact Azathoth Gambit, destroying their old-time foe and Normalcy altogether, creating a new age of human evolution where humanity will bend the anomalous to their will.

• Sons of Bowe: A group of high-class military leaders, politicians, and businessmen that were supporters of General Willis Bowe during the Bowe Commission and were expelled from the Foundation after Incident Zero. Scattered across the Pentagram, the Unusual Incidents Unit, and other parts of the US Government. Initially led by the eldest daughter of General Bowe, Mary Bowe, they attempted to start a war between the Foundation and the GOC but failed. Eventually, Mary Bowe was demanifested from reality by Joe Biden, taking her place, joining the Chaos Insurgency, and becoming a part of Delta Command. While worshipping Bowe as a kind of cult of personality, after Bowe joined the Foundation in 2020, has since begun to move away from his person and more to his ideology of American exceptionalism, military interventionism, and neoconservatism.

Chronology for R&D

Note: All the history, during and before the Foundation Civil War, remains the same.

Real-life events: Red
Foundation events: Gray
Dates: Outlined
Important storylines: Blue

October 17, 1926: The Foundation Civil War is over, with a massive defeat of the Triad and the return of the O5 Council to power. A reconstruction period of Foundation infrastructure commences, alongside the start of purges in the ranks and relocation of operations to the United States.

Mid-November 1926: O5-1 proposes the creation of the Research and Development Department to utilize and reverse-engineer anomalies to defend and upgrade the security of Foundation sites and reestablish Foundation presence in Europe. The vote, despite its controversy, passes. O5-9 is made Overseer of R&D.

Fall of November, 1926: Otto Sternberg, nephew of O5-9 worked under Dr. Fritz during the Civil War, and avoids his death by being appointed as the new, first Director of R&D. The renovation of an Austrian site, Site-37, becomes the first base of operations for the new department.

December 1926-First Months of 1927: The creation of “sectors”, facility-sized sites for R&D, are created and expanded through Europe. Originally planned to expand throughout Europe, it only becomes successful in the following countries: France, Great Britain, Spain, Poland, and some parts of the Weimar Republic. Attempts to expand to Italy, Yugoslavia, and the Soviet Union fail.

1927-1929: Several important technologies that are used to this day are created:

• The first Scranton Reality Anchor as a joint operation between R&D sectors near Site-120 and the Department of Ontokinetics.
• Cognitohazardous safe rooms designed for the survival of Foundation personnel in cases of containment breaches or raids, led directly by Dr. Otto Sternberg.
• Other that we’ll find out.

October 24, 1929: Black Monday happens, starting the Great Depression. Massive unemployment and economic recession hits both the worlds’ nations and the Foundation. A great budget redistribution occurs to continue usual operations ends with mixed results. Despite this, the Depression managed to hire unemployed academics and researchers to the Foundation’s lines.

Christmas, 1929: Unemployed civil engineer, Franklin Reynolds, is employed by the Foundation to help with the construction of the first R&D sectors in Site-19 and Site-17. Engineer Reynolds would become a vital part of expanding R&D to the United States, quickly becoming the Overseer of Operations for R&D in the United States.

January 30, 1933: Adolf Hitler becomes Chancellor of Germany. The reaction of the O5 Council is to put sites on high alert due to the number of Jewish personnel in Germany at the time, but is met with mixed responses due to the favorable response of some German sites to Hitler.

March 5, 1933: After a series of supposedly unconnected raids, mid-level analyst Arthur Pierce recovered the transcript of a Triad member, Damian O’Connor, informing the O5 Council of “an insurgency of chaos against the Foundation”. The later co-opted name of the Chaos Insurgency would be used by this successor of the Triad.

1933-1938: Rise of Hitler to power, constant attacks, and raids by the Chaos Insurgency to R&D sites, the rise of fascism in Europe leads to the closure and reestablishment of SCPs to the United States or the Entente. Director Otto Sternberg puts Site-37 in high-alert and under soon movilization to reestablish R&D’s main base of operations.

March 12, 1938: The Wehrmacht enters Austria, invading and later annexing it to Nazi Germany. Director Otto Sternberg enacted the moving of personnel, equipment and SCPs from Austria to Czechoslovakia, and the complete shutdown of Site-37. As a response, the Obskuracorps burns down Site-37 and capture any remaining personnel.

March 21, 1938: Director Sternberg and his personnel arrive at Czechoslavakia with the intention of passing to Poland, escape to Britain and reestablish in America. Communication with the O5 Council is cut and there’s no notice of R&D for some months. Franklin Reynolds becomes the Provisional Director of R&D until Director Sternberg is contacted.

March 15, 1939: Nazi Germany invades what remains of Czechoslavakia and turns it into a German protectorate. The preparations by Director Sternberg are halted, and he quickly mandates to escape to Poland – leaving important equipment behind for the Germans, preoccupied with the survival of his personnel.

April 2, 1939: Director Sternberg’s team arrives at Poland and establishes at the sectors near Site-120, and quickly tries to contact the Council for an escape mission. Communication fails, and Sternberg considers asking the Polish government for assistance, Site-120 command for defense, and as a last measure, the Soviet Union. All of this fails, and Sternberg is left defenseless.

< End of the Interwar period and beginning of the Seventh Occult War >

September 1, 1939: Germany invades Poland, starting the Second World War and the Seventh Occult War.

September 3, 1939: Częstochowa falls to Nazi Germany. Site-120 and Esterberg manage to resist, but R&D sectors fall to the Wehrmacht. Einsatzgruppen commit the Częstochowa massacre, killing several R&D personnel in the process.

September 4, 1939: Obskuracorps Colonel, Klaus Vonnegut, becomes the Director of Sector-X and Sector-XX of R&D, as a base of operations to create anomalous technology and later take over Site-120. Director Sternberg remains the Director of R&D under Colonel Vonnegut, trying everything in his power to keep the survival of R&D personnel. With this news, Franklin Reynolds becomes the de-facto Director of R&D.

September-December, 1939: Remodelations to Sector-X and Sector-XX turn it into a ghetto, both as a public hiding and to avoid the escape of R&D personnel. Conditions are similar to ghettos in Nazi Germany and Poland. Once remodelations are over, attempts to occupy Site-120 and Esterberg begin.

Winter of 1941: Successful Soviet counteroffensives in Moscow, Karkov, and other major Soviet cities begin the slow counteroffensive of the Soviet Union against Nazi Germany.

December 7, 1941: Imperial Japan attacks Pearl Harbor, starting the involvement of the United States in the Second World War and the Seventh Occult War – joining the Allied Occult Initiative with France and Britain. The Foundation finally enters the Seventh Occult War on the side of the Allies and the AOI.

September 1, 1944: Obskuracorps Commander Konrad Weiss is captured in a joint Foundation-AOI under Operation GLEAMING COVENANT. Once discovering the scope of the situation, the operation expands to stop the Rite of Solomon being performed by Obskuracorps and the Thule Society.

September 2, 1945: Japan officially surrenders to the Allies, ending the Second World War and the Seventh Occult War. What would become the Cold War begins to brew, and the later called the “Golden Age of Normalcy” begins.

< Beginning of the Golden Age of Normalcy >

1949: The Soviet-Foundation Agreement is signed between the O5 Council and Josef Stalin. The Foundation is allowed to operate inside Soviet territory in exchange for the blueprints of the nuclear bomb. This agreement begins the partnership between R&D and Progress.

1961: The Sino-Soviet split begins. The Foundation remains allied with the Soviet Union, causing Chairman Mao to destroy Foundation infrastructure, execute Foundation personnel, and steal SCPs in mainland China as a part of his Cultural Revolution. The Foundation responds by exiling the few objects and personnel left into Taiwan, becoming a safe haven and an enclave to operate in mainland China – strengthening the then weak relationship between Taiwan and the SCP Foundation.

1978: Deng Xiaoping begins to consolidate his power in the PRC. As part of his reform and opening-up to the West, Deng Xiaoping allows the SCP Foundation to slowly relocate to mainland China if it unrecognizes the legitimacy of Taiwan being the real China. With a vote from the O5 Council, it passes and the Foundation returns.

Ideologies, Religions, Etc

• God-Building: The idea proposed that in place of the abolition of religion, there should be a meta-religious context in which religions were viewed primarily in terms of the psychological and social effect of ritual, myth, and symbolism, and which attempted to harness this force for pro-communist aims, both by creating new ritual and symbolism, and by re-interpreting existing ritual and symbolism in a socialist context.
• Lysenkoism: Was a political campaign led by Soviet biologist Trofim Lysenko against genetics and science-based agriculture in the mid-20th century, rejecting natural selection in favour of a form of Lamarckism, as well as expanding upon the techniques of vernalization and grafting. In time, the term has come to be identified as any deliberate distortion of scientific facts or theories for purposes that are deemed politically, or socially desirable.
• Kali: Kali or Kalika is a major Hindu goddess, she is associated with time, doomsday, and death in Shaktism. There were cultists in the USSR that worshipped Kali, in some way they could relate to Daevites in Russia.
• Russian cosmicism: Philosophy formed by Nikolai Fyodorovich Fyodorov that advocated for life extension, physical immortality and the resurrection of the dead that advocated to combine science, art and religion in the Common Task of uniting humanity. A predecessor of the transhumanist movement.
• McCarthyism: McCarthyism was the movement of the Second Red Scare in the United States, led by Senator Joseph McCarthy with the purpose of repressing left-wing activists and leaders to stop the spread of socialism in American institutions. After the Seventh Occult War and the Soviet-Foundation Agreement, the Pentagram would be filled with McCarthyists to depose communists from inside the Veil, including the Foundation. Many scientists accused of being communists would work for the Foundation and R&D as a result.
• Gnosticism: A collection of religious and spiritual ideas that are divided and organized into numerous beliefs from multiple sects. However, the main idea is that our material universe is the creation of a false God known as the Demiurge, and through a process of Gnosis (enlightenment), people may surpass this material realm and reunite with the True God — it doesn't use values of sin and repentance but of illusion and enlightenment. A predecessor of the GOC at one point killed the Demiurge in the Sixth Occult War, so we'll definitely have to write about that. Also, multiple characters could be personifications or believers of Gnostic thoughts.
• Objectivism: A philosophical system developed by Ayn Rand, that proposes rational egoism as man's highest purpose in life, that reality exists outside of consciousness and believes that the best social system that consists of this worldview is laissez-faire capitalism. The aesthetics of Objectivism are based on geometry, industrial and futuristics aesthetics is something that Site-150 would take a lot of inspiration from.

Historical Figures

• Alan Turing: English mathematician, computer scientist, logician, cryptanalyst, philosopher, and theoretical biologist. He is considered as the father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence. Turing was prosecuted for "gross indecency" and given hormone treatment, leading to his suicide (or accidental poisoning) in 1954. The Foundation could offer him a new life inside the Veil and continue his work if he joined — Turing could be heavily involved in the research and development of supercomputer and artificial intelligence, eventually becoming the first AIAD Director.
• Aleksei Gastev: Russian revolutionary, a pioneering theorist of the scientific management of labour in Soviet Russia, a trade-union activist, and an avant-garde writer and poet. Could've researched Church of the Broken God history, their methods of creating technology and its organization.
• Anatoly Lunacharsky: Russian Marxist revolutionary and the first Bolshevik Soviet People's Commissar (Narkompros) responsible for Ministry of Education as well as an active playwright, critic, essayist and journalist throughout his career. Bumaro influenced him which led to the idea behind "God-building".
• Alexander Bogdanov: was a Russian and later Soviet physician, philosopher, science fiction writer, and Bolshevik revolutionary. Same with Lunacharsky, however Bogdanov was focused on practical research.
• Juan Posadas: Argentine Trotskyist who created the ideology of Posadism, an ideology that thought that Communism could only be achieved through the help of an advanced communist alien society to bring the world revolution. Major role in the McCarthy-Truman UFO Incident of 1951.
• Roman von Ungern-Sternberg: Anticommunist warlord during the Russian Civil War that tried to revive the Mongol Empire, who was recognized as a violent and eccentric leader. We have to include this guy as the discoverer of Able in Mongolia and have Able fight alongside him, and later went into a massacre after Ungern's execution.
• Charles Fort: was an American writer and researcher who specialized in anomalous phenomena, that he named "Fortean" or "Forteana". One of the first O5s or an Overseer at one point during his lifetime.
• Hans Kammler: was an SS-Obergruppenführer responsible for Nazi civil engineering projects and its top secret V-weapons program, who disappeared during the last days of the Second World War. Still discussing how we could use him, maybe the Foundation or AOI captured him due to his involvement in the Obskurabomb or fled to the Chaos Insurgency.
• D. S. Mirsky: a Russian political and literary historian who promoted the knowledge and translations of Russian literature in Britain and of English literature in the Soviet Union.
• Gleb Bokii: was a Ukrainian Communist political activist, revolutionary, and paranormal investigator in the Russian Empire. Following the October Revolution of 1917, Bokii became a leading member of the Cheka, the first Soviet secret police, and later of the OGPU and NKVD. Founder of the Paranormal Branch of Cheka, aka Proto-GRU-P.
• Alexander Barchenko: was a Russian biologist and researcher of anomalous phenomena from St. Petersburg. In 1904 Barchenko attended the biological faculty of Kazan University, and subsequently entered Yuryev University (today Tartu University). He is known first and foremost for his researchings of Hyperborea in Russian Far East region. Assistant of Bokii, who organized several expeditions to research ancient (anomalous) civilizations.
• Paul Gorguloff: was a Russian émigré and assassin who shot and fatally wounded the French President Paul Doumer at a book fair at the Hôtel Salomon de Rothschild in Paris on May 6, 1932.
• Nikolai Yezhov: was a Soviet secret police official under Joseph Stalin who was head of the NKVD from 1936 to 1938, during the height of the Great Purge. Yezhov organized mass arrests, torture and executions during the Great Purge, but he fell from Stalin's favour and was arrested, subsequently admitting in a confession (that he later claimed was taken under torture) to a range of anti-Soviet activity including "unfounded arrests" during the Purge. He was executed in 1940 along with others who were blamed for the Purge. Could be the one who approached the Sarkics more and his repressions were focused on finding and executing Mekhanites.
• J. Robert Oppenheimer: was an American theoretical physicist who lead the Los Alamos Laboratory and credited as the "Father of Atomic Bomb". Could be involved in the creation of the first eigenmachine created by the Foundation, or just an important researcher who worked with the Foundation and the US Government.
• Douglas MacArthur: was an American military leader who served as General of the Army for the United States, as well as a field marshal to the Philippine Army. After he was fired from his position during the Korean War, President Truman could appoint him to Majestic 12 to not waste his military experience. Was later ousted by General Bowe Sr.
• Vladimir Mayakovsky: was a Russian and Soviet poet, playwright, artist, and actor. Soviet writer most likely influenced by Bumaro or any other CoTBG figure.
• Vladimir Vernadsky: was a Russian, Ukrainian, and Soviet mineralogist and geochemist who is considered one of the founders of geochemistry, biogeochemistry, and radiogeology. He was one of the founders and the first president of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences (now National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine). He could be the first Director of "Progress" RI.
• Nikolai Kardashev: was a Soviet and Russian astrophysicist, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, and the deputy director of the Astro Space Center of PN Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow.
• Vladimir Chelomey: was a Soviet engineer and designer in missile program of the former Soviet Union. He invented the first Soviet pulse jet engine and was responsible for the development of the world's first anti-ship cruise missiles and ICBM program of Soviet Union such as the UR-100, UR-200, UR-500 and UR-700.
• Nikolai Fyodorovich Fyodorov: nown in his family as Nikolai Pavlovich Gagarin; was a Russian Orthodox Christian philosopher, religious thinker and futurologist, library science figure and an innovative educator. He started the movement of Russian cosmism which was a precursor of transhumanism.
• Konstantin Rodzaevsky: was the leader of the Russian Fascist Party, which he led in exile from Manchuria. He was lured by the NKVD to return to the Soviet Union with false promises of immunity and executed in a Lubyanka prison cellar after a trial for "anti-Soviet and counter-revolutionary activities". The GRU-P could've created a prototype psionic eigenweapon and used it against Konstantin once he was returned to the Soviet Union.
• Mitchell WerBell III: was an OSS operative, mercenary, paramilitary trainer, firearms engineer, and arms dealer. He could have faked his death, and he's probably the type of member of the Chaos Insurgency who takes over the organization while the veterans of the Civil War retire or die.
• Kim Philby: MI6 officer & Soviet Spy.
• Elizabeth Bentley: Soviet spy who defected to US.

MTFs

• Joint Task Force Hermes-12 ("Liberty's Loyalists")

Joint Task Force Hermes-12 was formed in 2006, under the leadership of O5-6 and General Willis Bowe, to cement the relationship between the U.S. government and the SCP Foundation. The group itself is part of Bowe's program to militarise anomalies and was one of the first of its kind. Hermes-12 is composed of Foundation Operatives, Special Forces of U.I.U. with Pentagram Division. It is a Site-19 Stationary Task force dedicated to concealing Foundation assets at Offutt Air Force Base, tracking down and capturing illegal intruders, and securing the nearby area.

• Mobile Task Force Shiva-1 ("Apocalypse Launchers")

Mobile Task Force Shiva-1 was formed in 1962 at the suggestion of O5-6, armed with Tactical Nuclear Recoilless Rifles and was one of the first MTF's capable of countering Large Scale Aggressors. Initially, it was armed mainly with variations M28 and M29 of the "Davy Crockett" Nuclear Device until the weapon became irrelevant. Thanks to the Foundation's active cooperation with the U.S. Department of Defense, the re-equipment of this MTF occurs every 5 years in accordance with the supply of improved weapons. Since this MTF will cause massive damage to the environment when deployed and engaged in combat, it's deployment must be authorised by the O5 Council and The Foundation Armed Forces Command.

• MTF Omicron-14 ("Scarlet Crusaders")

Mobile Task Force Omicron-14 is an elite task force that specialises in the protection, capture and containment of abnormal entities and/or items directly related to the so-called “Scarlet King”, as well as carrying out raids on “Children Of The Scarlet King” cultists in order to prevent the rituals of this cult and capture all persons present at them for subsequent interrogation and imprisonment. Further information regarding MTF Omicron-14 is classified Level 5.

• JTF Avrora-17 ("Red Alert")³

Avrora-17 is Joint Foundation and GRU-P task Force armed both regular weapons and experimental Psychotronic weapons.

• JTF Genesis-42 ("Starry Sky")

Genesis-42 is Joint Foundation and Research Institute "Progress" Task Force. They are most likely to work with technological/electronic/cybernetic (etc) anomalies. Also Genesis-42 is probably "Ancestor" of other Tech. Task Forces like Mu-4 and Rho-9

• RTF Alpha-11 ("Adam's Touch")

Researchers possible ways of appliance of anomalous objects. Major player in Project: "Resurrection".

• MTF Delta-175 ("Casket Keys")

Formed to support and monitor MTF Omega-7. After the incident with Area-25 & Bowe Commission abolishing defected from the Foundation. Possibly in a way related/connected to Mary Abigail Bowe.

• RTF Iota-17 ("Scavengers"): A classified research task force directed by Site-17 Director, Thomas Graham, with the purpose of targetting potential anomalous candidates for research purposes. Candidates are chosen by scientists who are personally supported by Dr. Graham and can be immediately kicked out of the task force by Graham's wish. RTF Rho-17 is known for unethical experimentation of SCPs and Contained Persons of Interest.

• Zero syndrome: the consequence of Incident Zero and restructuring of the timeline. Symptoms of Zero syndrome are confusion, amnesia, forgetfulness, and even memory loss when trying to remember the actual events of the main timeline. It also causes that plot holes to be filled with contradicting events, which causes contradicting information among personnel and the more involved personnel were with Incident Zero, the more they tend to forget more — so, people outside of the Veil don't experience the symptoms of Zero syndrome.

TK-Class Casual Restructuring Event in 2007:

The Obskura-Bomb (better name needed)

• (Inspired by ENDICOTT and The Hartwin Archives) Combine the nazi conspiracy theory about Germany creating nukes in the 30s with Obskuracorps and the Hattan-Bomb in ENDICOTT which is later reclassified as an eigenweapon.
• ideas
  • Obkurakorps used in on the Eastern front maybe in 1944
  • Both Mekhanites and Sarkicists were horrified of the effects of this thing that deemed it VERY un-holy and actually united on the quest to destroy it.
  • Since There were more Foundation agents on the western front, they were able to capture the documents, the bomb itself etc stuff related before Mekhane-Srarkik Alliance could
  • Foundation sent the bomb to Oppenheimer who is Major Foundation researcher
  • A letter from Mekhane-Srarkik alliance to Foundation demanding destruction of the bomb.

The McCarthy-Truman UFO Incident of 1951

• A UFO crashed in a town near New Mexico. A Majestic 12 task force was sent to recover the UFO and censor the witnesses, however, they identified aliens coming out of the ship with advance paratech alongside what was later identified as KGB and GRU-P agents. Backup was called, but after initial confrontations, Majestic-12 requested the help from the UNGOC — sending Strike Team Alpha. Despite later capturing and killing most of the GRU-P agents and some aliens, Strike Team Alpha died, causing a major diplomatic drift between Majestic-12 and the UNGOC (this could be the reason behind Majetic-12 involvement in the Foundation). According to some KGB agents, the aliens responded to the callings of Juan Posada and help them in achieving a world revolution. Juan Posada was later classified a PoI.
• it all causes drift between the SCPF and GOC Relationship but relations between Majestic-12, Pentagram and the Foundation strengthen.
• Al Fine requested a personal meeting with Administrator. When she got it, after the moment Administrator entered the room, Fine left it with Paranoia. Administrator himself got really confused. (And yes Administrator is not regular human)
• List who are involved: Majestic-12, SCP Foundation, UNGOC (Strike Team-0001 Alpha), KGB-GRU, Posadist militia (?)
• Individuals: General Stan Bowe (Commander of Majestic-12 task force), Juan Posada (PoI-861), General ██████ █████ (O5-6)

R&D-"Progress" Moon Landing before Apollo 11:

• The moon landing was staged by "Progress" RI and R&D before the official Apollo 11 mission to test the capabilities of the planned spacecraft and study the surrounding area of landing to see if there weren't any aliens species in the moon.
  • Add cool images edited by Filipp.
  • Write it similar to an analog horror video casette as a classified PENTAGRAM project.

Red Saoshyant

• Lenin is Saoshyant

The Death of The Engineer:

• A tale where The Engineer dies by slipping and hitting his head, and his subordinates try to find out what to do about it and keep the Insurgency together. This leads to the implementation of The Engineer as a symbol and cult of personality, using multiple Engineers to hide the death of the real and only Engineer.

The Second Death of Caesar:

• A tale about General Stan Bowe taking control over M-12 from Douglas MacArthur, written from McArthur's POV, thinking of himself as Caesar in his assassination.

The Multiversal Teslas
A combination of both Filipp's and Mexanik's ideas about Tesla being involved in the SCP Universe. Mexanik mentioned that there could be multiple Telsa instances from different universes that are completely different from each other — as Mexanik put it, a "quantum superposition" of Teslas according as to how each individual perceives him. Several possible Tesla instances could be:

• Tesla came from Venus, where an ancient alien civilization came to Earth and had important figures impacting history — this one was inspired by Filipp because of the FBI file he found.
• An inventor that never knew of the anomalous and was just a normal person.
• A scammer that deceived investors to support his projects.
• An SCP that was classified by an early Foundation or a predecessor such as the ASCI.
• Yada-yada, you get the idea.

Five possible ways of utilizing anomalies, according to Mexanik:
Or as I like to call it: The Spectrum of Anomalous Utilization:

• Limited weaponization - only special organizations possess such a force, varying from offensive to purely defensive. It doesn't require the replicable things, so can be done pretty eazily, as seen in SCP-5000 and many other places.
• Unlimited weaponization - everyone can have these things, like houses with indestructible walls, talismans that protect from ghosts, magical rifles for hunting, and so on. Definitely requires anomalies that can be replicated or produce needed things themselves, and a good infrastructure.
• Limited modern conveniences - designed for special works like exploring volcanoes or deep space, and so are mostly useless for common civilians. These anomalies can be both unique or replicable, all depends on a specific situation.
• Unlimited modern conveniences - robot butlers, eternal batteries, magical medicine, and so on. Requirements are the same as for unlimited weaponization.
• Entertainment spheres - alien TV shows, gengineered pets, interesting places hidden in the pocket dimensions all over the city, and so on. Things that are not very useful for problem solving, but nice to have anyways. Can be literally anything, as long as they're safe enough.

Ideas for R&D:

• Mars Colonization Program (~~tremble Elon~~)
• Weather Control Device
• Modification Proposal for Tau-5 Improvement
• Invisible Foundation Site
• Foundation site in Mariana's Trench

Foundation Recruitment Program:

• College graduates from all degrees and backgrounds
• Experienced personnel in various fields
• Personnel from private companies
• Captured GoI members or defects
• Military and security companies or associations (American Cadet Alliance for example)

Concepts inspired by Nixonverse Retold:

• The SCP Foundation acts like the Rockefeller Corporation:
  • • Era starts in 1926 after the end of the Foundation Civil War until the signing of the Soviet-Foundation Agreement of 1946.
• (Inspired by Alcatrazean rocks): the Foundation uses alchemical objects or the Philosopher Stone by the Alchemy Department to experiment with amnestics.
• Project "Team Up Terror" to deal with an anomaly at the same level as the Last Son by utilizing several anomalies. Other methods proposed for the Last Son that we could use would be:
  • Nuclear Neutralization
  • Constant Captivity (Containment)
  • Homeworld Hindrance
• More info here.

Tommy in Incident Zero:

• Premise: Tommy Thompson, the brother of Iris Thompson, writes his experience during the Incident Zero event.
• Similar to Virginia's experience inside Wonderland, with bright flashes, loud bangs, and multiple scenes repeated over and over again — he also meets several versions of himself from multiple timelines, such as him dying in North Star, or not existing at all
• At one point, he meets with Iris from SCP-1564, who protects him while Incident Zero continues.
• The tale ends with Tommy saying that his name is in remembrance of 1465, and it ends with a recovered journal log from Agent Thomas Petrakis.

• The Foundation has a AN/URC-117 Ground Wave Emergency Network.

Chaos Insurgency and its bases of operations:

• After the Civil War, the Foundation had to leave both Europe and the United States to regroup and settle somewhere else to regain its strength and not be found by the Foundation. Some places that may be be possible:
  • British India
  • Belgian Congo
  • Northern or Southern Africa
  • Somewhere in the Middle East
• Also, the Insurgency could have helped the Nazis during WW2 and received its own territory in Antarctica (New Swabia).

Mechaniac's proposals

Mechaniac's proposals

Plot and style

• The Foundation's history is a pendulum that swings between «no paratech!» and «yeah, paratech!».
• At first there were lots of dreamers like K. P. Crow with his Olympia and robots.
• Then most of those progects were closed and abandoned as too unpredictable and potentially dangerous.
• Usual tools like bullets and concrete walls were good enough to deal with supernatural threats.
• But then appeared Reality Anchors, thaumatology, departments of pataphysics and the other weird things…
• Old-school wiki of 2008 to 2014 was focused mostly on horror.
• Nowadays it's a mess of tone and style. No established theme or genre, only the relation to the Foundation's world.
• The perfect time for R&D to rise again!

Sunrise of the mind

• Human species is young. It has infinite potential, but not enough skills to dream big enough.
• Foster tried to dream big, but she wanted to create a new world using outdated methods rather than special tech and other stuff R&D works with.
• Anomalous society has countless abilities to fix human imagination without massive transhumanism, with just a few tiny memetic pokes here and there. Not more radical than the usual upbringing, but much more stable in result.
• Thus it's just a matter of time someone will figure out what to do.

Main obstacles

• Prometheus Labs had colossal abilities and dreams, but failed too often and too hard.
• Attempts to kill SCP-682 always fail too (except a few stories) regardless of resources and plans.
• Both examples grow from the same root - people of our own world want so and don't want to change that.
• These are «narrative» or even «meta-narrative» forces that drive most of the events in Foundation worlds.
• Even more, these forces act from several directions at once.

Out-universe reasons

• Readers want to think the Foundation exists in our real universe.
• They also want the main SCP setting to focus on the horror, not an utopia.
• If the story about the Foundation is utopian somehow, it was surely written as an unique exception.
• If there was any memetic upgrade or mass paratech usage IRL, we'd surely notice radical changes in social, economic and other spheres.
• Thus there weren't any in the Foundation's world yet too.

In-universe effects

• Narrative things were clearly mentioned in SCP-3812, SCP-6000 and many other stories.
• The very existence of the Pataphysics Department and several others.
• By the way, that's why Onepunchman is unbeatable too - his true powers are based on author's description of the character, not the simple in-world might.
• The Library predicts the future somehow and can manipulate events outside.
• Even more, it has the reason to do that to suppress the Foundation's development of paratech.
• Is there anything more dangerous for the Library than SCP and GOC with all the know-hows of Three Portlands, Deer College and other GoIs multiplied by the resources of the strongest organizations on the planet?

That's why R&D suffers from lack of opportunities. It could lift itself back up, but it don't.

• It clings to the past too much to focus on the future.
• O5 interferes with its progress too.
• That're simple human factors - jealousy, ambitions, miscommunications and so on.
• Murphy's law, especially in the form of Gears' razor - the scarier and worse option is the most possible.
• But they're just manifestations of the giant meta-narrative scheme forced by the Library.

Countermeasures

• The Foundation definitely knows about narrative forces too.
• Even more, someone from the Counsil practice thaumatology and paratech themselves.
• There're lots of departments like Antimemetics and Pataphysics that can't exist without a huge progress in parasciences.
• So, the Foundation can withstand this narrative obstacle, at least partially.
• I doubt R&D was separated from its original spheres of work just as a punishment for the old deeds.
• Especially while there're Three Portlands, Serpent's Hand and other examples of nice everyday life full of anomalies.
• So there must be a true reason behind the «punishment» one.

The Plan

• Or maybe the Anti-Plan as it should circumvent and maybe even destroy the Library's schemes.
• Some sort of «anti-narrative machine» made of situations and rules inside the Foundation's main structure.
• Its key part is a vitally important and large department that definitely needs to have lots of special knowledge and resources, but can't do its work except a few simple tasks.
• It should serve as the «focal point» for narrative constraints and thus relieve the pressure on other important departments.
• Or a «sink» for the «plotlines» where the Foundation can use only the traditional methods.
• R&D become this part not only because of the Foster Conspiracy, but also because it's not as crucial as the departments that work with much more dangerous stuff.
• Noone should know what's happening - otherwise everyone's actions won't be honest enough, and the Plan won't work.
• The Foundation is gradually overcoming the limitations, breaking through them from both its narrative level and our real world.

Counter-countermeasures

• The Library don't want its schemes to be circumvented or maybe even destroyed.
• The Serpent's Hand is the perfect tool for some extra sabotage.
• It needs not to mess with the Foundation's progress, but to support it in the right place and thus «clog the drain».
• Even if this won't work as intended, the result would surely make the Foundation harmless to the Library.

Growing pressure

• Cutting off R&D's progress, the Foundation can deal with anomalies that require special knowledge and tech.
• R&D suffers a bit, but this helps keeping the world from collapse, thus acceptable.
• O5 saw that it was good and cut off some more of the R&D's abilities.
• That helped the other departments to work even better.
• These departments grow and create lots of specialized jobs.
• R&D suffers harder as O5 squeeze more and more narrative freedom out of it.
• Dozens of new departments grow onto this freedom.
• Even the special department of anomalous dentistry, what a wastefulness!
• O5 don't care much as the «anti-narrative machine» works well enough.
• But that's just the matter of time when the R&D couldn't give more «resources» or start the rebellion!
• Most of parascientific departments would collapse if that happens.
• Maybe their opportunities can be recovered, even by the R&D if it can enhance its powers fast enough.
• But it's going to be some pretty dangerous chainsaw juggling!

Conclusion

The Library doesn't want the Foundation and GOC to collect too much powers and enter it again. So it messes with narrative and even the meta-narrative of the SCP universe, especially the paratech and parascience spheres. O5 develop the plan to use R&D as a «narrative sink», cutting off its ambitions to help the other departments, but the Library triggers R&D's urge to work at full power. But we won't see what actually happens behind the scenes that soon…

The large cycle with one-time stories and longer storylines.

• R&D is suffering.
• R&D rises its head again.
• O5 counterattacks.
• R&D hides and protects itself.
• O5 thinks it's the help from AWCY or other GoIs.
• Then we find out it's from the Serpent's Hand.
• Then we find out O5 aren't just luddites, and there's something bigger behind the scenes.
• Then our real world is involved in the story, twisting with the Foundation's universe.
• And so on, escalating and taking bizarre forms.

A long-term battle between R&D, O5, the Library and possibly many other sides with their own goals, where even the slightest unpredictable advantage can change the whole scene.

R&D is surely the center of this saga, but there can also be stories from the Council's and others' points of view, and they should be as clever too.

Every idea can serve as both the center of its own story (for example, a story about creating some anart from its maker's weird point of view) and as a repeating element of different other stories (a piece of paratech eventually appears in the background or becomes an important tool much later).

No predictable ending, as our real world doesn't have any script^{[citation needed]} and especially if anyone can contribute to the hub.

---

Groups of Interest

Just a small part of R&D workers decide to do something bold, but that's enough to start a lot of «Promethean» fires all around. Sometimes they do that on their own, but the Library imperceptibly inspires many more of them.

The main difficulty of hard sci-fi is to find a balance between «cool math» and «too much math» - especially when it's the weird science that bends the laws of modern physics and can easily trigger a real scientist. On the other hand, there's a possible way how to add tons of weird and incredibly detailed science theories without even attempts to combine it into a single system!

• R&D is dreaming about its glorious past, but can't truly bring it to life.
• It supplies the Foundation with simple stuff, but doesn't need to limit the imagination to dull reality.
• Groups of workers behave like they do something more interesting and futuristic without actually creating anomalies.
• The movement grows and takes many different forms of cosplay, roleplay, chunibyo and so on.
• This doesn't interfere with the core jobs, so O5 don't care much.
• Then the Flow starts turning the Old World Blues into Type Blues, more or less literally.
• The most inspired workers imagine random theories about the parascience, and that's enough to make some real paratech.
• It can be either adding new properties to the ordinary things, or making brand new decorative devices that somehow work.
• Actually that's the anart supported by sci-fi ideas and retrofuturistic urge instead of more common artistic expression.
• Even if there're no actual natural (supernatural?) laws behind, anartists don't care as long as their feelings are hard.
• Even if R&D prodigies don't consider themselves anartists or mages but serious researchers and developers.
• Then the Serpent's Hand secretly gives some special schoolbooks and other instructions to the most promising creators.
• They can even create paraweaponry to withstand the O5's pressure and perform a new, more successful rebellion one day…
• O5 notice what happens, but think that's AWCY influence and thus dig in the wrong direction.
• R&D notices the Council's spying too and decides to protect itself better.
• The best creators learn how to make hidden rooms, pocket dimensions or other secret places to work.
• They also know a lot about building containment chambers and so can make their hideouts unreachable for opponents.
• A network of labs, libraries, factories, test grounds and warehouses grow all over the Site or even outside of it.
• Each one belongs to one of the numerous groups of creators, Indigo Vaults, with its own vision and sci-fi theories.
• Sometimes they work together as all of them share the same dream and can't achieve it alone.
• But they also see it from different perspectives and argue sometimes.

One can reject the other's ideas and devices as «based on wrong theories» or just not seeing them in its version of a better future. Let's say, two groups prefer a biopank, but one wants the gengineered creatures to stay in the same forms they were produced, while the other one wants them to evolve freely. And the third one doesn't want to use any organic machinery as steel is better than any flesh.

They focus not on the weaponized conspiracy but a defensive one. If they're invincible, there's no necessity to be strong - an indestructible warrior can break down a castle using only a toothpick, it's just a matter of time.

The name refers indigo children + indie development + digging into the new knowledge or literally the ground, and so on. Also the acronym IV is equally recognisable for those who know and hidden from those who doesn't, and can be additionally encrypted as an arabic digit.

But, as the Library tries to start up a new age of R&D's progress, it won't put all the eggs in one basket. There're more possible ways that can be used simultaneously, as mutually supportive or independent mini-GoIs inside the department.

• The sword - eager sci-fi anartist groups like Hephaestians and Timesmiths, or many more. Also so-called D&R that firstly creates anomalies and then studies them (for example, a magical device that produce random things). All of these groups easily perish under the O5's countermeasures or their own faults, but a new ones emerge soon enough.
• The shield - Indigo Vaults groups, more slow and heavy as they require complicated infrastructure, but well-protected and protecting others too.
• The mind - these ones prepare «countermemetic» projects to change the very way of thinking in the R&D, other parts of the Foundation and the whole world to make people more intelligent, ready to help with the creation of a new utopian world and live in it. They're the least strong and visible of all R&D groups, but the most effective in a long-term perspective.

R&D makes countermemes as the part of its main job. And countermemes are memes too. Obviously the Foundation won't allow anyone to spread the dangerous stuff around, but these ones are not for brainwashing. So what about a hidden countermeme that doesn't reduce the will and consciousness, but enhances them, so people can think clearer and act as a much more organized society? Probably R&D won't even need to tell them anything at first - they'll come up with the right ideas themselves while messing with dangerous or even world-ending anomalies with nearly stones and spears. And, as a nice side effect, they'll surely make their other duties better with brightened minds - the Foundation lose too many people and resources because of simple human negligence, grudge and other weaknesses that grow from the roots of ancient instincts that are useless today. That's not the panacea itself, but the first step that makes the others very possible. And it must be done with all the caution, of course.

Maybe the sword and shield groups' real purpose is to distract O5 from the mind projects? They don't need to know that side of the Library's plans, or even about the Library itself…

Tech and methods

Firstly, that's how I see the main history of sci-fi itself.

• Jules Verne & Co, «look at this submarine, the product of the latest ideas in science and engineering!» - cool technologies, but not much superior to what already exists around.
• Noticeable increase in quantity, but not as much in quality. For example, starships when the idea of rockets is already there - science says such opportunities are very possible, yet unlikely to appear in the foreseeable future.
• Modern sci-fi where very fantastic things like parallel worlds are actively featured. This is already on the border of science or a little beyond.
• Further, science fiction can involve more abstract things like symbolism, giving them a clear explanation and laying the foundation for outlandish devices that go far beyond the scope of general science in its modern sense. Possible examples - «Seventy-Two Letters», «Evangelion», thaumatology, pataphysics and so on.
• Finally, especially advanced guys can use concepts outside of the human mind in general and create completely alternative forms of knowledgeю Enough to still be considered science fiction, but in fact already reaching the level of various post-science. For example, Watts' Bicamerals who threw off the very idea of classical science and developed the religion-based system where all the discoveries are made in subconscious and feel as divine insights. Or various mystics and imaginative Type Greens who can directly feel the world itself, without any intermediaries like calculations.

There shouldn't be one universal Theory of Everything as different R&D prodigies use their own systems.

ANM

The anti-narrative machine mentioned in «The Plan» section. A device made of not the mere matter and circuits, but the story itself, different situations, issues, hierarchic rules and so on. It's built inside the structure of the Foundation and acts as its background, forcing or suppressing different events or their outcomes.

• «The sink» - one of the most important parts. Someone must suffer so the others can progress. It's R&D's destiny as this department is large and important enough, but not too vital for the Foundation's works as many other departments do their researches and developments themself.
• «Outputs» - all of those departments, usually small ones with only a few dozens of workers. The Library's effects limit the effectiveness of the Foundation's ANM, so there should be less focal points to perform a strong paratech progress maybe?
• «The control» - not the Council directly, but the overall atmosphere of the Foundation that O5 have influence on.

GOC was banned from the Library too and surely has its own ANM thing. This organization is made of 108 GoIs, but did you even hear about more than eight, including former ones? And how many of these eight are described beyond their names?

But this is just the tip of an iceberg. Any story can exist as a «story» only inside the bigger narrative system - in this case it's our real world. Relations between the Wiki and its readers are stronger than it seems as many readers want to think these stories are somehow real or at least realistic by our means. That's why personal conflicts, budgetary costs and other down-to-earth reasons should be parts of the ANM too - otherwise there won't be enough conflict, thus the story would be abandoned in our modern environment. Or maybe not, but O5 don't like to risk without a special need. And, of course, they're humans with their human flaws and ambitions.

On the other hand, there's no single protagonist - especially when O5 prefer to hide in background shadows. Thus everyone can be the main hero of his own story, and R&D has the chance to break its chains…

Chainbreakers

Even without its previous thirst for action, R&D accumulated desire to do something through the years, and someone mindful of Foster's mistakes bears a new plan. And here're several possible plotlines about tech following from this basis.

• Increasing quality of produced tools - see how Henry Ford and other industrialists improved their factories by simplest methods. For example, painting corners of the workshop in white so noone pile the trash here, or using blueprints without dirty stains. That's general human psychology, and such tricks can do wonders!

• Upgraded versions of simple weaponry, scramble goggles and so on. Still nothing special, just first steps, maybe even unseeable to non-specialists. This could be shown better from their users perspective - for example, MTF fights with GoI, and their opponents' weapon ofthe same kind breaks faster and more often. Or an anomaly tries to escape its containment chamber, but caught on a surprisingly durable rod, and scientists had a few more vital seconds to evacuate.

• O5 noticed that, but these things and actions aren't too suspicious, and R&D said something like «If we can't do what we want, we'll do what we can as good as possible to be proud of our work».

• R&D secretly develops new methods and tech - probably something retrofuturistic as the department mainly looks into its glorious past. Actually retrofuturistic things are barely effective, like as tiny Roomba is much more convenient and efficient than an android with a broom. But they're more of a symbol of progress than actual tools for massive rebellion.

• R&D creates a «countermeme» and spreads it around. Maybe not only inside the Foundation - for example, it was built into the new MTF arms and thus got into the minds of the inhabitants of the city where the operation was carried out. There'll be no need in the Veil if everyone would treats anomalies as calmly as black holes and supernovae, won't it? But right now that can break the narrative plan and make it even more difficult to make an enlightened future, so the Council counteracts.

• Finally R&D finds out how to progress without breaking the plans, or even making them even better.

In short, R&D tries to restore its powers, O5 reacts like it don't want the progress at all, the helping Hand appears, suddenly we understand new circumstances that turn the whole scene upside down, again and again…

The Univironment Theory

Of course, humatics is the core of modern Science of Cryptic Phenomena, but it shouldn't be the one and only! Especially when scientists of SCP-6001 already figured out something better than Humes, and I have a bunch of ideas too.

The level of reality is supported by the number of «reciprocal links» between objects. And I mean «objects» in the wide definition, like in Graham Harman's philosophy. For example, me and table are objects. The interaction between us is also the object on its own too as it can't be reduced to just me or the table. An imaginary unicorn is such an object too - its imaginativeness is just a parameter, like mass or color. And so…

• Two stones can lie and do nothing - they have a low level.
• A meteorite strikes a planet - their reality rises because there's the complex interaction between many other things that all together logically point to this situation leading to the formation of a crater of this particular shape.
• Living beings can increase their own level through self-awareness.
• Reality Benders, according to this theory, are enough self-aware to make even their thoughts and will as real as the world around. Some sort of solipsism, maybe?

And that's enough to build a simple device. Well, probably not more simple than SCP-914 of the same kind, but modern computers are much smaller and faster than any clockwork and can be organized in a more free way.

• The «black box» to put things inside and cut it off any connections with the world. We don't know what happens with that «Schrödinger's cat», thus anything can happen.
• Some machinery around to make an environment into which the item will be retrieved. Can be done even without any tech, with rearrangind things and situations around the box.
• This environment must definitely point to specific traits of an item we want to make.
• So the world will have no choice but to give us that thing.
• Of course it won't work well with living creatures, at least when they're conscious and have the memory of their previous state.
• But the overall system doesn't actually need any material tools and can be performed even in the one's mind. It's just about explaining the universe how it should look like, with absolute logic and enough evidences.

According to this theory, thaumaturgy and Type Greens works the same way, but more roughly and less efficiently. Yet divine wonders and Type Blacks understand the main idea good enough to break the usual rules of magic.

But knowledge isn't enough. For example, we know rockets can send us to Jupiter or other stellar systems, but can't build a spaceship yet. And the device that can deceive the world's logic is much more complicated than any rocket engine!

And this theory itself is just a prototype too. It works with many pieces of reality, including immaterial ones, but it's just a combination of engineering and symbolic things. In the possible future it should also involve more abstract psychological concepts through the self-reference gimmicks, or even become a part of a much bigger system.

The whole concept can be wrong, but R&D still can successfully use it to turn simple things into anomalies or create brand new pieces of paratech from scratch.

Some other creations and concepts

The Modelverse - what if the world is just a computer simulation? This theory is pretty old and well-known among civilians, but R&D can use its modification to hack the reality in many ways we're pretty familiar with through the videogames. And it can also serve as an alternative for not only the Univironment, but the whole «meta-narrative» concept.

Tomorrowland - the large project of Indigo Vaults to create a new universe where they can freely do all sorts of research and even build a full-fledged civilization in the style of Avalon or so. However it won't suit many people, especially in the meta-narrative sense - it'id be a separate reality that can be forgotten in our real world, and it'll hardly be able to affect the main canon anyways.

Book voyage - there's alredy a device for moving to and from fictional realities, as well as extracting goodies from there. The problem for R&D's scientists is that their early versions of this tech require very special kind of lyrics - you can't just mention or even describe a certain thing and pull it out of paper. It needs a straight, almost highly memetic and extremely outlandish description that has little in common with literature, and in general it doesn’t even matter if it’s artistic or technical, words or drawings. However, such limitations could be overcome in the future. And the very principle of jumping inside the narratives of a lower level can, as it were, hint at the possibility of the existence of a higher one!

Miscellaneous

I also had two dreams that should be useful too.

One of the biggest and most progressive R&D groups that combined heavy memetics with technomagical practices made the «Encycliomemia» (sic!) - a 15 meters wide encyclopedia containing all of their knowledge, then it was «archived» somehow to a human-length scroll. The information also became just a short summary of every topic - but the full knowledge «downloads» into the student's memory during the reading. It was said that «everyone can read it in its entirety in just an hour, while being distracted every minute to look around» - however, it also required a memetic password, otherwise you'll see only the summary. This password was a large, nearly seven lines long, paragraph - a frivolous greeting-preface, like «Hey, you want us to update, complete and [something about Limbo] you, then you need to» and so on, I didn't remember the full text.

The second dream is much less detailed. In short, it was about R&D's secret group that manipulated the narrative forces and even used some sort of timetravel (pulling things from possible futures) to create weird devices and artifacts. It was a variety of, let's say, Development and Research Department - another bunch of conspiratoric groups in the main R&D that firstly create their own paratech and then trying to understand its math, like Gallegher from Henry Kuttner's books.

That's probably too bold for R&D, at least at the times we're talking about, but who knows! I mean more R&D's possibilities than intentions here - firstly even the most enlightened researchers need to create a fairly complex infrastructure and gain experience doing simpler projects. I don't know yet how long it might take - maybe years, or just a week, especially with the help from outside. So it'll be better to think about it in the process of writing. Again, who knows what cool ideas we'll come up with later?

[More coming soon]

Most of the theories mentioned here are from Wendigoon's Conspiracy Theories Iceberg, but there are also theories from others.

• SCP concept where Saturn is Satan's Prison
• 1934 obskura nuclear/para-weapons testing: Most nuclear programs were said to have began in 1939, when Nazi Germany began the first Nuclear Weapons program. The theory is that the groundwork for what eventually became nuclear bomb began with smaller scale testing of nuclear chain reactions in 1934, long before major government began the race for the atomic bomb. A couple of major theories/inventions relating to Nuclear Weapon development (Nuclear Chain Reactions, synthetic elements) had been invented around this time and massive bombs had been theorized before
• 6500 b.c writing most likely made by Fae: Theory that certain cave paintings, markings and other things left behind by early humans represented some type of advanced written language that wasn't deciphered yet beyond just symbols. Think about it like hieroglyphs
• Black Plague being a biological agent sent created by Daevas: The black plague was intentionally spread by the Golden Horde into Europe and Africa. This was done as the Horde was weakening at the time and their conquests were failing.
• California fires caused by R&D laser tests
• Smithsonian coverup: A theory that the Smithsonian Institute destroyed the skeletons of giant humans in the early 1900s to not contradict evolution. This could be a joint operation with the Foundation to maintain the theory of evolution, and maybe even write an SCP about giants or the Nephilim — could also be related to the 6500 b.c. writing in some way.

The Phases of R&D

An idea completely made and built by Mexanik, with insights of Comrade Waldo to help him with coming up with them.

The ist dat of the Phases

Phase 1 - introduction, classic sci-fi stories about the beginning of R&D's uprise, a few vigilant scientist and engineers start to develop more interesting devices and methods than they usually do.
Phase 2 - a slight shift to more soft sci-fi, GoIs appear, doubts about the ethical aspects of the new tech, beginning of special memetic projects, R&D's first secret facilities.
Phase 3 - more GoIs, more weird tech beyond the laws of physical reality, the Council's countermeasures, R&D is in trouble, but holds its positions well.
Phase 4* - the truth about narrative and metanarrative forces slowly revealed, R&D isn't the main point of view as we see more figures on the board.
Phase 5 - up to the universal and multiversal scales, with aliens, mages, incomprehensible anomalies and other stuff that R&D tries to fit into a hard sci-fi box.

The following collapsible are for each Era, but we'll use both era and stage interchangeably.

Sternberg Era

I think the basic idea here is turning from «how to deal with it» to «how to utilize it» in the most classic SCP style. Everything to save the Foundation and the R&D itself, but without real scientific breakthroughs. Not very hard sci-fi, just a few engineering notions here and there - we see mostly the result than process or mechanics.

• Phase 1 - the department was just established and does nothing more than developing special containment tools, an equipment for MTFs and other non-anomalous things with already existing tech, trying to be as inventive as possible.
• Phase 2 - first attempts to make anomalies useful. But there's mostly using their weird properties as is without modifying or even direct mixing with other devices. Like a fire that was sealed inside a lantern - it burns just as usual, but emits light only in the chosen direction.
• Phase 3 - more bold using of the stuff produced by anomalies, like special amnestics or construction materials, and enhancing common devices with SCP-914 or so, but still not too free. In the sense that the developed tech isn't very paratech on its own, but was made using special resources, methods or knowledge - like robots that can do human work in harsh conditions.
• Phase 4 - some anomalous objects were directly integrated into eigenweapon, power plants, worldwide amnestic sprayers and other useful devices, more or less effectively.
• Phase 5 - I think there should be a kind of downfall to raise the stakes and make the next era look more bright. Maybe a row of dangerous situations with newly developed machinery that relied on some anomalies too difficult to just use without an adequate development of a new science too?

Of course, there should be more potential disasters all over this era, so R&D workers could show their skills at preventing or eliminating such problems. But not too much, otherwise this young department will surely sink, in the best case without taking the whole world with it.

Golden Age of R&D

This one can be the next turn, from «what we can do with it» to «how does it work» and so on.

• Phase 1 - the department finally understands it should research not only the methods, but the natural or, maybe, supernatural laws behind the anomalous stuff it uses. This part is about experiments that lead to unintended discoveries and better understanding of the universe.
• Phase 2 - developing of new scientific and parascientific fields, from «first doodles of the cryptozoological menagerie» to Humes theory or so, I don't remember what exactly appeared in which century. Maybe expeditions to weird places like volcanoes or ancient temples to see more interesting things. And, of course, a lot of prototype equipment for research and defense needs! Interactions between elated scientists and materially-minded MTFs should be fun, especially in the Cold War context when mighty countries competed at the fullest power they could, involving the Foundation into their scientific and engineering rivalry.
• Phase 3 - when the basis of a few parasciences was established, it's time for even more interesting projects and expeditions that seemed to be nearly impossible before. For example, deep space exploration, time travel, voyages to the Earth core, or what's there instead, to the ocean bottom, into parallel dimensions, and so on. There're tons of anomalies that reside in such places or act as doors, and the new paratech can help not to die here immediately.
• Phase 4 - probably fully about paraweapons and an eigenmachinery that could turn the world back to life after possible doomsday scenarios. For example, some fights with aliens far from Earth, or more simple dealing with nuclear war perspectives… And maybe SCP-2000 was built somewhere in this period too, who knows!
• Phase 5 - not sure if a new downfall as a first sign of impending stagnation or, vice versa, a hightest peak of progress, but it surely depends on the global political sutuation. Probably a mix of both - discoveries and achievements are cooler than ever, but there're less and less of them. Maybe some sort of a stable plateau was reached when the further progress requires building a collider longer than Earth equator, or so.

Graham Era

The main idea could be based on the five stages of grief in the perspective of parascientifical collapse and other problems that should look much worse after the long prosperous years.

Phase 1 - the denial. Thanks to the inertia from the previous age, R&D still tries to overcome the new difficulties, acting like nothing bad happens. Stories about very random deeds, from developing the brand new fields of anomalous to creating devices that could bring it more money, but for almost no use.

Phase 2 - the anger. After all those futile attempts R&D brings a bunch of very risky, in the matter of danger or cost, but interesting projects that can either save it or make the situation even worse. And they doesn't help too.

Phase 3 - the bargaining. A short period when R&D tried to negotiate with the Council about the increasing of budget and such things. A lot of social activity, but almost no real work, and sci-fi elements are shown mostly as blurred flashbacks and brief mentions of past achievements.

Phase 4 - the depression. Fears about the possible end of parascience and paratech. More flashbacks, but this time they're mostly about previous stagnations and collapses all over the anomalous community.

Phase 5 - the acceptance. The department is still anemic and apathic, but it doesn't feel so sad now. Its scientific and engineering work mostly stopped, but the mind starts to boil again with another projects. That's the time when R&D created its «legacies» so someone more lucky could use it in the brighter future. And soon Foster will find some of these unfinished projects…

Aliens

Ideas for various aliens species:

• Everyone's minds can easily travel through all the other's bodies, so even the specialized creature is just a tool anyone can use, but not a designed slave. Can be achieved through natural or technological telepathy.
• The same mind for everyone at once - no need to fight if you're both the slave and the boss.
• Another kinds of hivemind - for example, a living memetic culture that makes its hosts act in a specific way, but don't directly order them what to do. Like we don't order the soil to grow the crops and just prepare it to do so the best way possible.
• A race of metamorphs who can be anyone they want to. From purely biological creatures to robotic ones.
• Weird types of mind architecture - from ones that already figured out something like emendism or even use it at a natural subconscious level to totally incomprehensible beings.
• Subtype of the previous group - The Next from Pratchett's and Baxter's «The Long Earth» pentalogy. They're, well, extremely sensitive to the information about the surrounding world, thus everyone just knows what to do to keep the community in order, and do so without any discussing.
• One of my old ideas is an «alive culture» as a sort of sapient meme. The extraterrestrials who developed it had advanced far enough to become cyborgs, totally change their bodies, and then abandon any specific form or type of mind. But they didn't want to perish as a specific race, and thus transformed their culture into the «general information carrier» - a basic set of traditions and thoughts that can be used by almost any lifeform. And its bearer can be count as a new member of that race, regardless of its real origin, biology or any other trait, as those old extraterrestrials could take that shape or properties too.
• What about some sort of a sentient fungus? A wide net of biological threads with the overall structure more complicated than a circuit board. It grows through the surrounding matter, shaping it with its own flesh, but its mind can't directly sense what happens around - all its deeds at the physical level are just reflexes, metabolic and cellular proceesses. But the mind has major influence on the net's shape and structure too, as its thoughts are streams of chemicals.
• One alien civilization that I would like to write about would be related to the idea of Solipsism and Brain in A Vat, about an alien race that it's just brains that used their minds to build their civilizations — and place more importance into thoughts, concepts, and abstract ideas rather than concrete and physical bodies.

Foundation Space Program

Ideas bounced around between Mexanik and Comrade Waldo through PMs.

1. Why start the Space Program?

• First, we need to understand that the Foundation and "Progress" Research Institute are occult organizations — despite being research institutions, they're occult. Occult doesn't mean they're necessarily paranormal, it just means that they have knowledge that is not for everyone. It can be hidden aspects of nature, or as Mexanik said, knowledge hidden from the uninitiated folk.
• Inspired from his idea of elimitism, Mexanik proposed that occult socieites adopted idea that can be summarized:

We're adults, while ordinary people are just children. And you won't describe principles of high math to the first graders, as schoolkids don't understand and don't need that kind of information. But adults should take care of children so they won't harm themselves too much.

• And this fits in line with the ideas of paratech and the Space Race perfectly.
• So, the main goal of R&D and "Progress" would be to create a safe path for the rest of humanity. Since the Foundation and "Progress" both want to take care of humanity (the former to protect a sense of Normalcy, the latter to expand Communism). So they believe that for the rest of mankind to travel to space, they need to lay the foundations for future explorations and create the previously mentioned safe path.
  • There a also a lot of reasons that fits story behind the scenes, mainly the Cold War: the USA of the USSR danced at the edge of nuclear warfare, and both the Foundation and "Progress" didn't want that to happen. The main conflict was in the ideological spheres, so one of the best solutions (counting its easiness too) was to give both countries matchless achievements of similar weight.

2. How will the Space Program work?

• Following this logic, the Space Race was inevitable. So, the Foundation and "Progress" need to work together for a very long time, and make long-term plans for the farther future to put into effect. It can be before the launch of Sputnik I to the current Artemis Program, and beyond.
• It is probable that the Foundation and "Progress" would have multiple space programs at the same time with different goals, both that employ bolder, more complex paratech to reach farther places and those who use common technologies with some extra paratech.
  • And those "normal" space programs could be the ones we already know about, such as Gagarin's orbit of Earth and the Apollo 11 landing. Which brings an interesting question of who the first occult pioneers would be and the challenges the Foundation, "Progress", and its astronauts would face.
  • Waldo's note: I wholeheartedly agree with this idea, not just because it's cool, but I think it'll have a greater emotional impact on R&D once "Progress" disappears and leave the space projects they once had in mind.
• However, we should also consider that spacecraft are clearly visible objects from a large distance and that hobby astronomers carefully watched the sky since Sputnik. So, the Foundation and "Progress" must be careful.
  • In this case, we can use several strategies: hide real evidence with hoaxes such as through fabrication or misinformation, as well as give explanations to "natural phenomenons".

3. What would be the results?
The Foundation and "Progress" should at least:

• Have bases and research facilities in the Moon and Mars.
• Have started new explorations into the rest of the Solar System.
  • "Progress" particularly is interested in Venus (and we can connect it ot the theory of Tesla being a Venusian).
• Have multiple satellites for contact with alien life before their approximation to Earth.
• And of course, a great influence in the real American and Soviet space programs.

The Foster Conspiracy

Pride. Dr. Tabitha Foster knew the feeling well. Pride was black ink in the ledgers. Pride was a good deal put to good use. Pride was coming out of the workshop with something that worked. Pride was a plan coming to bloom.

The Foster Conspiracy came from a comment in the discussion section of Walk the Floor from Djoric where he mentioned that if the conflict between the O5 Council and R&D and Director Foster continued, R&D would attempt to overthrow the Council and fail — and the survivors would defect to the Insurgency, leading to their own downfall like Lucifer in Paradise's Lost.

The conspiracy was weakly developed by Comrade Waldo in the R&D Department Orientation, which attempted to explore and flesh out the reasons as to why the department had a conflictive relation with the Council, as well as the reaction of common R&D scientists. Of course, this idea will be deepened in the canon (and the orientation rewritten), so in this tab, all the notes and ideas as to how the conspiracy happens will be saved here.

Main differences between the Orientation and Rewritten Conspiracy:

• While the conspiracy is discovered, it is not put down immediately. Multiple R&D cells and sectors are announced to take up arms and fight against the forces of the Council, resulting in more of a revolt (or insurgency) than a revolution.
• The Foster Conspiracy is not planned until the death of Foster's assistant, Eric, but thought, dreamt, and planned since Foster's corruption arc started — she focused on secretly gathering resources under the Council's noses until she could find the adequate eigenweapon to defeat the Council.
• The strategy of Foster is not to take each site one by one to encircle Site-01 and overthrow the Council, but to use the discovered eigenweapon against the Council to wipe it out of the picture and fight against the rest of the sites without a unified leadership.
• After the downfall of Foster and R&D, Foster applies a Xanatos Gambit move and she remains alive not only in the memory of R&D personnel but also in some anomalous way — even if she is actually dead.

How does Foster plan the conspiracy?

• The conspiracy starts as mere wishful thinking from Tabitha. As Mexanik said, Foster can only dream of overthrowing the Council — just like many people hate their superiors or authorities without actually confronting them.
• However, although she knows that she cannot head bump into the Council and try to put them down, what she does have is the time, connections, and clearance to search for the secrets of R&D before Incident Zero during her free time.
  • So, she'll have to continue her directorship, slowly gathering support from the higher-ups, rediscovering and reintroducing old projects, until she finally finds the perfect eigenmachine to fight the Council.
• There's one key factor she needs to keep into account: she has to continue to run the department. So, while she is building up her conspiracy, she has to keep the few projects R&D has running — both to keep the department following but also to show her superiors and spies that the department is busy.
• This continues approximately from 2006 to 2016, until she finally rediscovers some old paratech to use against the Council.

The Ultimate Eigenweapon against the Council:

I think the most interesting way here is to take something totally peaceful, designed for an entirely different purposes, and transform it into a weapon.

• Like Mexanik mentioned, the eigenmachine that will be used into the WMD for the Council won't be originally designed to be a weapon but a tool — which is then redesigned as the tool needed to wipe out of the Council.
• The weapon won't be only one device, but rather multiple devices with different purposes that will be transformed into a weapon. These devices are:
  • The R&D space telescope that will be used to locate the O5 Council members and take specific data from them, directly or by spying the documents.
  • The "Progress" Research Institute Noospheric Manipulator will rewrite local parts of reality can serve two purposes. First of all, it creates a specific situation that will be recorded in the DEEPWELL system, interpreted as a separate computer file rather than just numbers and thus turn into a Bard-like program.
  • This Bard-like AI collects more data about O5 and sends it to the R&D, but mostly waits for further instructions.
  • Using the data collected by these telescope and AI, as well as other devices or methods, including non-anomalous art of spy, allows the Noospheric Manipulator to wipe out the Council from reality or at least make it useless, for example, inducing madness.
  • If that won't help, the Bard-like AI would still present in the Council's private computer systems, ready to perform another kind of attack
• But, the eigenweapon wouldn't work, alongside Foster's contingency plans against the Council, resulting in the failure of the Foster Conspiracy and the fall of Foster and the department.

Foster's Legacy:

• In a discussion I had with Mexanik I compared Tabitha to King David who raised against the Goliath that was the Council and failed as the memory that R&D personnel remember of her.
  • However, Mexanik raised a valid point that while Goliath brings us an image of a mighty and large thing, David is reminded as just a boy who killed Goliath and the statue Michelangelo carved. She deserves more.
• So, the memory of Foster from R&D personnel is the following: a force of nature rather than an actual human being, who was the personification of the neverending conflict of R&D to return to its glory days. Even if this image is not complete from who she actually was, the memory is far more important to her…
• However, even if she dies, she has her multiple aces up her sleeve:
  • The legacy she'll leave is important, but she has to make sure the department continues the path she has for them.
  • Her first move is to memetically integrate parts of her consciousness across the R&D personnel when she dies, silently avoiding memetic scanners and silently guiding R&D personnel to bring back the department to its greatness.
  • A clone was also an option, but the lack of time and priority to plan the conspiracy didn't allow her enough time to finish the project.
    • • But, she could use this in her favor: the remains of the project and her contingency plans could allow her to exploit the state of the Council and send rumors which may or may not be true.
      • These rumors could be:
        • • That her clone was finished and she's leading the remainig R&D cells in the Insurgency
          • An avatar of Prometheus
          • However, what matters is that these rumors help her in distracting the Council to look the wrong way to let R&D take the opportunity and get to work.

Foster's Lost Treasure:
But that's just the legacy she leaves of her image, not of the material she'll leave for future R&D personnel to continue the fight. So, what does Foster leave of all the research and paratech she recovered to R&D personnel?

• All the research and recovery would have been for nothing if she failed, and considering the master planner she is, she won't leave all of her hard work to be found by the Council and its lackies — so, she'll hide all of what she cans in the hopes that in the future, the smartest personnel of R&D will find it again and reignite her dream.
• However, where will Foster hide all of these lost paratech? In pocket dimensions, baby.
  • • According to Mexanik, there can be four possible pocket dimensions that Foster may use to hide these paratech:
      • Enlargement of normal space: It can be done with the Pseudo-Riemannian Manifold Machine from SCP-2000, as well as anomalous geometry, dark energy condenser, and other methods.
      • Distortion of a normal space: Wormholes, warp things — using the same matter bur turning it into a different shape. It doesn't violate the continuum fabric, but bends isit, but it has the danger of closing with interdimensional threats or collide with otherworlds — making it more visible to those outside.
      • Usage of subverse: A concept of Alliance, where a particle is turned into a separate universe from the main one inside the main one, with any kind of natural laws and dimensions inside it.
      • Virtual reality: This method requires both extremely strong computers and very precize methods of collecting data about a thing — for example, in The Quantum Thief it uses picometer-sized assemblers that can turn digital data into a physical object and vice versa, operating on the really subatomic scale. But there can be different ways to achieve the same goal.
    • Whatever the case, most probably R&D will use the first two, but maybe Foster pushes for research and experimentation with the last two, but doesn't fully develop them in time for the conspiracy.
    • However, how will R&D personnel discover these lost paratech?
      • Maybe with puzzles similar to those of Cicada 3301?

Rewrites

SCP-744-ARC Rewrite

Original article: SCP-744-ARC

Ideas for rewrite:

• First, ask in a discussion about requesting a rewrite for SCP-744-ARC.
• Keep the main premise of the SCP, with a few tweaks:
  • • The anomaly killed the Rust Monster, but that will be the name given by the soldiers of the Montana National Guard, which is the 33m machine surrounded by junk and metal scraps.
    • Meanwhile, the Steel Doll is the original creation from Prometheus Labs that became the Rust Monster and eventually killed Adrian.
• The changes:
  • The location of the facility of SCP-744-ARC is near Fort William Henry Harrison, with Helena as the base of operations for Prometheus Labs.
  • Because of this, the first response to 744-ARC was the Montana National Guard with the use of M1 Abrams which did not work.
  • By this point, Iris gets along with Adrian and Beatrix, and she knows Able.
  • In the log, there should be a moment where Adrian is about to be killed by 744-ARC:
    • • In it, he sees the timeline divergences, the one where he lives and the one where he dies. He barely manages to snap out of it, and he survives.
  • The incident resulted in the destruction of most of SCP-774-ARC, with the exception of the Steel Doll prototype.

Characters involved:

• Adrian Andrews, POV character and member of Team Able
• Beatrix Maddox, member of Team Iris
• Neil Ghost, Head of Team Iris
• Iris Thompson, SCP-105, Omega-7 Asset
• Able, SCP-076, Omega-7 Asset
• General Bowe, Commander of Omega-7
• General Mulhausen, Director of Applied Force
• Dr. Philip Grant, "Pandora's Box" Initiative Director
