Item #: SCP-3911
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: Contained instances of SCP-3911 are to be incinerated in a quarantined Off-Site location unless specified by an individual of level-3 clearance or above. To ensure the complete destruction of all spores, the remains of incinerated instances of SCP-3911 are to be mixed in with concrete and contained in warehouse 127-B. Instances of SCP-3911 that are preserved for testing are to be regarded as a Level-2 Bio-hazard. Medical records and police reports in areas where SCP-3911 has been known to be found are to be monitored for keywords relating to SCP-3911, and a full list of keywords can be found on document 134-F.
Addendum 3911-1: No cross-testing with anomalous organisms or testing with personnel who rank at a █ or higher on the psychic resistance scale are to be carried out under any circumstances.
Description: SCP-3911 is the collective designation for a species of parasitic fungus bearing similarities to organisms in the Neocallimastigomycota phylum. A mature specimen of SCP-3911 consists of a main body portion stored within a host object, and a vast quantity of tendril like growths extending from the main body, capable of rudimentary movement and rapid growth, with an average circumference of one micrometer. The structure of SCP-3911's tendrils mirrors that of its secondary hosts nervous system. Instances of SCP-3911 go through six distinct stages in their life cycle.
During stage 1 instances of SCP-3911 disperse from their parent fungi as spores and seek out a host item. Items that have previously been recorded as serving as host items include glasses, contact-lenses, hearing-aids, nasal strips, and other sensory aids. SCP-3911's methods for identifying host objects are currently unknown. SCP-3911 spores have shown a preference for Ray-Ban brand glasses. SCP-3911's spores also possess rudimentary anomalous movement, and gravitate towards host objects. Instances of SCP-3911 typically expire within 72 hours of dispersal if a host object is not found.
Stage 2 consists of SCP-3911's integration into its host object. The location and size of SCP-3911 during stage 2 is reflective of the host object. For instance, in glasses, SCP-3911 typically consumes and replaces the majority of the inside bulk of the frames with its central body mass and tendrils, but in contact-lenses SCP-3911 has been observed digesting and replacing only a minimal section of the lenses around the edge, as well possessing disproportionately small tendrils. This noticeable size difference does not seem to have a significant effect on the speed or effectiveness of SCP-3911's progress through future steps.
Stages 3 through 6 will not occur unless a human being uses SCP-3911's host item in its intended fashion for a period of time exceeding 15 minutes. If this occurs, SCP-3911 will root its tendrils within the body of its secondary host and begin assimilating the nervous system. If a human being does not use SCP-3911's host item, SCP-3911 will expire within four days of of completely consuming its host object's interior.
In stage 4 the tendril like structures begin sapping nutrients from the hosts body. Additionally, SCP-3911 will augment the functionality whatever sensory organ the host item is associated with. The means through which this is accomplished are not well understood, but observable alterations in the genome of affected cells have been noted. Excess nutrients sapped from the host's body are directed to the cells of the sensory organ. Specialized structures typically experience the greatest changes; D-8332's cones and rods gained an increased sensitivity, and notably the ability to detect ultraviolet light. It is theorized that the intended effect of this is that secondary hosts will draw the connection between their increased sensory performance and the host object, and continue the use of the host object as a result. In the scenario that the secondary host does remove the host object, the section of SCP-3911 residing within the host object will split from the tendrils and remain inactive until being used by the original individual, where it will reconnect with the tendrils.
From stage 5 and on, SCP-3911 exhibits hazardous anomalous effects. Instances of SCP-3911 that have progressed to stage 5 will begin a systematic shutdown of sensory perception via the nervous system. After stage 5, any attempts to remove SCP-3911's host object will result in a gradual shutdown of all sensory organs within 6 minutes. These adverse affects can be reversed by recontinuing use of a host object.
Instances of SCP-3911 in stage 6 are considered to be fully matured. During stage 6 instances of SCP-3911 will drain significant amounts of energy from the secondary host's body, and will produce anywhere between 20,000 to 50,000 individual spores. Spores are slowly released over a course of 72 hours. After releasing all of its spores, an instance of SCP-3911 has an approximate 24% percent of perishing. If the instance survives, they will restart stage 6. If the instance expires, the secondary host will have suffer from a complete lack of sensory perception, unless infected by a new instance of SCP-3911. If SCP-3911 is artificially supplemented with extra nutrients, the chances of SCP-3911 perishing drop to approximately 8%.
History: On ███ ███, ████ The Foundation was alerted to several reports of low level psionic phenomena in ███████, Malaysia. After a brief investigation, MTF-███████ was dispatched to acquire the source of the phenomena, the potential GoI [DATA REDACTED]. After a disastrous and mishandled confrontation, the situation eventually escalated into what is now known as Incident-7223, ultimately resulting in over █████████ in damage, 231 civilian casualties, and ██ personnel deaths.
Autopsies later conducted on members of the potential GoI [DATA REDACTED] revealed the first known instances of SCP-3911, and it was initially presumed to be the source of the groups psionic abilities. Immediate efforts were made to locate and collect all instances of SCP-3911.
Eventually, the potential GoI's abandoned base of operations was located, in the ███████ Eyewear factory. The investigation notably yielded 13 people infected with instances of SCP-3911, in various stages of development, as well as documents detailing ████, as well as ████████ in ██████. The following letter was also found.

This truly is a joyous day, for you to have come to your senses! I worry though... if your follower's visions are as accurate as you have bragged, it may be to late. Even the Insurgency is filled with fear at the thought of confronting the Foundation in a head on fight. My contacts have agreed to meet you at the [REDACTED] by the river tonight. Come alone. They'll have good Mr. Tengku with them. Make sure you choose your words when speaking with them; my own followers paid dearly for my attempts at being coy. They still believe that by cutting open Mr. Tengku's head they can learn your methods and awaken the third eye of their own killers. Perhaps they could. But, they still don't know the role your little Erebus has in cutting away the unnecessary to strengthen what remains. That's your only card; and it's hardly a royal flush.
Hopefully we'll talk once more.

I’m contacting you because after working with Heather for seven months now, (and yes, that’s Heather, none of this SCP-designation crap. She’s a person, a damaged one at that and it’s my job to fix her,) I’ve finally got over my own cowardice enough to do the right thing.
Incident 3297-beta may not compare to some of the horrors that the Foundation has committed, and the expense of our error may not have had consequences that can compare to the mass casualties lost to SCPs like 682 or 076, but the complete erasure of incident 3297-beta from Foundation records for the sole reason of it being an unsightly stain upon the record of those involved is completely irresponsible. The fact that Mendax got away with what he did should be the altar on which we further our security protocols, not some mess for the higher-ups to sweep under the rug.
Additionally, the hellish conditions that Heather had to endure cannot continue to be ignored because the Ethics Committee is to embarrassed to acknowledge that they approved the original containment procedures.
On behalf of Heather, I seriously hope that a consensus to add information regarding Incident 3297-beta back into Foundation databases can be reached. We’re supposed to be better than this.

While SCP-3297 may have had to undergo a horrible experience, it is nothing compared to what could have happened had what we originally believed actually have been the case.
For this reason, we have not deemed it necessary to punish the majority of those involved in Incident 3297-beta. They responded appropriately to what they believed was a hostile, Keter level threat.
Additionally, the declassification of Incident 3297 has been deemed unnecessary for the containment of 3297. We have however declassified the original document in order to demonstrate the scale of 3297's anomalous property.
Do not continue pressing this subject to the 0-5 Council and I if you want to keep your current assignment and your job.
Item #: SCP-3297
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3297 is to be held in a 3 by 3 meter holding cell, with steel walls no thinner than 2.5 meters thick. SCP-3297 is to be kept in a medically induced coma at any given time, except when specified by researchers assigned to SCP-3297.
Four security guards armed with standard issue equipment are to be stationed outside SCP-3297’s cell at all times, and the strike force “Happy Accidents” are to be on call in the event of SCP-3297 waking up unintentionally, and as per-protocol are to respond with lethal force. For additional information contact Doctor Mendax.
Description: SCP-3297 claims to be the thirty-two year old Caucasian female known as Heather Fischer, but in reality is █████████, an entity that was believed to be evil incarnate by ancient civilizations.
SCP-3297 has super strength and the ability to produce and direct bolts of super-heated plasma from her hands. SCP-3297 also appears to erase all footage of it’s anomalous properties automatically. Currently no further information about SCP-3297's abilities are known, as further study would require it to be awakened, which would threaten breaches on a mass scale.
To date SCP-3297 has caused one containment breach, which subsequently resulted in the breach of SCP-173, resulting in the loss of 11 Foundation Personnel’s lives and 16 injuries.
Incident Log:
Incident 3297-alpha: On April 3rd, 20██, at 6:45 pm, D-7130’s anomalous properties were discovered by Doctor Mendax during routine cleaning of red substance on the floor of SCP-173’s containment chamber by D-class personnel. The ensuing attempt by Doctor Mendax and on site security to contain D-7130 unfortunately allowed SCP-173 to breach containment, resulting in the losses of 6 personnel, and 5 researchers. The breach’s sole survivors are Doctor Mendax, who was overseeing the cleaning operation, and D-7130. (Note: Doctor Mendax has asked to be reassigned to D-7130, who is now known as SCP-3297.)
Item #: SCP-3297
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3297 is to be kept in a standard 5’ by 5’ meter humanoid containment cell. All personnel working with SCP-3297 must undergo special conversational training to avoid making any statements that will activate SCP-3297’s anomalous property.
Knowledge of SCP-3297 is highly confidential, and personnel who violate their confidentiality agreement will be reprimanded, administered a class-B amnestic and reassigned to a different site. All personnel working with SCP-3297 must be monitored and have their conversations recorded at all times.
Description: SCP-3297 is a thirty-four year old Caucasian female of American nationality, previously known as Heather Fischer, and later D-7130.
SCP-3297’s anomalous properties manifest when another individual (referred to as SCP-3297-A) directly (via name, designation, or pronoun) makes a verbal statement (Which is known as SCP-3297-1) about SCP-3297. Anyone that is present to hear SCP-3297-1 will immediately believe the statement to be factual, except for a few select people, including SCP-3297 and SCP-3297-A, who are unaffected.
When individuals are told of something about SCP-3297 that is highly improbable or impossible, they will invent often convoluted explanations as to how SCP-3297-1 is true. However, these explanations are not regarded as a part of SCP-3297-1, and as such individuals do not necessarily believe that they must be true and often edit their explanation to correlate with other affected individual’s explanations. SCP-3297 is not able to create an instance of SCP-3297-1 itself.
The effect of this anomaly becomes far weaker when the instance of SCP-3297-1 heard is a recording, becoming more of subconscious bias towards believing the statement to be true, but not typically to the extent that it overrides the logical abilities of the affected individual, except in individuals with very low psychic resistance. If a recording of an instance of SCP-3297-1 is recorded once again, the effect is weakened to the extent that it is regarded as neutralized.
The secondary effect of SCP-3297’s anomaly is that any individuals who actually are or have done what SCP-3297 is being accused of instinctively know if SCP-3297 is guilty or not.
Before designation as an anomalous object, SCP-3297 displayed signs of depression and anxiety. However, after the events of incident 3297-beta, SCP-3297’s psychological condition dramatically degraded. Thus far, SCP-3297 has made “great progress” with its therapist, Dr. Elizabeth Marnumgold, and continued work is recommended.
History: SCP-3297 was initially contained as an anomalous object after Incident 3297-beta. Previously SCP-3297 had come into Foundation custody from the Holman Correctional Facility death row as a D-class personnel, designated D-7130.
SCP-3297 was on death row for numerous charges including four homicide charges, two rape charges, thirty-nine traffic violations, twelve counts of aggravated assault, and possession of illegal substances, all of which besides one traffic violation were found to be false charges while the subject was in Foundation custody.
Upon review at an off-site location of several interviews recorded after SCP-3297’s initial ‘breach’, an investigation was launched, which eventually resulted in a mass amnestic administration and an update to SCP-3297’s containment procedures and description.

Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-XXXX are to be kept in a locked Level-4 security locker at Site-███. Event-XXXX is to be monitored by no less than three recording rigs and 4 senior researchers at any given time. Event-XXXX is to take place in a 15.25 by 21.5 by 8 meter chamber, which must be equipped with basic medical supplies, canned/non-perishable food, a toilet and a shower, cots, and tools/supplies to be used in the production of props/costumes. The chamber must be housed at least 2400 meters below ground, and possess 1.5 meter steel plated concrete walls. Event-XXXX is currently located beneath Site-███. At least one member of dedicated MTF-"███████" is to remain positioned and on standby outside the chamber, alongside a security team. Any personnel who
Description: SCP-XXXX a collective designation for any copy of the script of the ongoing theatrical production known as "Das Finale der Menschheit", or Event-XXXX.
SCP-XXXX's anomalous properties becomes apparent when any individual "reads" an instance of SCP-XXXX. After viewing an instance for an average minimum time of 21.3 seconds, the individual begins to exhibit several behaviors that are consistent across all test subjects, which are as follows:
- All affected individuals are capable of creating a new instance of SCP-XXXX.
- All affected individuals become wholly convinced that the cessation of Event-XXXX will result in the immediate extinction of humans and/or the destruction of Earth.
- All affected individuals become entirely devoted to preventing the cessation of Event-XXXX.
WARNING: THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION REQUIRES LEVEL-3 SECURITY CLEARANCE
ANY ATTEMPT TO ACCESS THIS FILE WITHOUT LEVEL-3 SECURITY CLEARANCE WILL RESULT TO IMMEDIATE AND SEVERE DISCIPLINARY ACTION.
The following information details a selection of notable correlations observed between Event-XXXX and simultaneous events taking place globally. Whether or not Event-XXXX is the cause of these events, or whether it simply reflects them is currently unknown.

MTF Epsilon-6 launches a siege on ███████, Austria where an entire town had been affected by SCP-XXXX. In the ensuing confrontation, 2 affected individuals participating in Event-XXXX were shot. |
Archduke Ferdinand of Austria is assassinated, triggering the second largest global conflict in history. SCP-███, SCP-████, and SCP-███ also breach containment. |
SCP-XXXX Recovery |
During the attempted transfer of the residents of ███████, Austria to Site-███, a German platoon mistook MTF Epsilon-6 for enemy troops and begun firing on them. The assailants were quickly dispatched, however a grenade dropped by a downed member of MTF Epsilon-6 seriously disrupted Event-XXXX. One participating individual was seriously injured, but Event-XXXX was resumed immediately. |
A magnitude 7.2 earthquake strikes Italy, resulting in the destruction of Messina and Reggio Calabria and the loss of 75,000 to 200,000 lives. |
Incident-XXXX-02 |
Karl █████, a participant in Event-XXXX who often played the part of a character who's actions directly reflected that of the infamous German Fuhrer, Adolf Hitler, became infuriated and attempted to assault several other participants in Event-XXXX before being restrained by guards. Interviews with his family indicated that his behavior had been becoming increasingly erratic for the past several years. This event marked the first time an effected individual engaged in actions that could have compromised Event-XXXX. |
Although the corresponding global event to this incident is not entirely known, It is hypothesized to be the moment Adolf Hitler authorized the use of gas-chambers in Nazi concentration camps. |
Incident-XXXX-09 |
The Chaos Insurgency attacks Site-███ in an attempted raid, and breaches the safe room Event-XXXX had been occurring within. In response, Doctor █████ allows SCP-███ to breach containment in a last ditch effort to prevent the cessation of Event-XXXX. Although the Chaos Insurgency is driven off, SCP-███ kills several Event-XXXX participants. |
