Item #: SCP-ABCD
Object Class: Keter
Threat Level: ● Orange
Special Containment Procedures: One SCP-ABCD-A specimen held at any time in a modified humanoid containment chamber at Site-219. Once the contained instance of SCP-ABCD-A has reached the age of 60, a new D-Class subject is to be infected, replacing the instance as SCP-ABCD-A. Mass SCP-ABCD spreading events must be prevented at all costs, requiring all involved personnel to strictly adhere to protocol.
Access to SCP-ABCD's containment area is restricted outside of testing and all testing must be approved by a Level 4 staff member. Personnel found attempting to induce an accident outside of approved testing are to be restrained and questioned. This cannot place SCP-ABCD-A in danger, as it may cause SCP-ABCD to spread.
Following an unprovoked accident in containment (see Addendum ABCD-A#2), all of the room's furnishings are to be stored in a separate room, with the intent of limiting the possibility of further uncontrolled accidents. If access to them is required, security personnel are to transport the furnishings, and remove them from the containment chamber once they are no longer needed.
After multiple incident reports, as ordered by Containment Specialist Wood, all medium- to large-scale accidents with few to no fatalities are to be investigated by Mobile Task Force Omicron-67 ("Carriers"). Instances of SCP-ABCD-A are to be terminated.
If the contained instance of SCP-ABCD-A expresses unexpected pain or distress, MTF Omicron-67 teams are to be dispatched to search the instance's Red Zone.
Addendum ABCD-SCP: After several incidents nearly instigating containment breaches, the window in the observation room has been removed. Security personnel and the current instance of SCP-ABCD-A are to communicate via closed-circuit audio channels.
Description: SCP-ABCD designates a phenomenon which causes all infected persons, designated SCP-ABCD-A, to share the effects of accidents.
When an involuntary action is executed by or directed against an instance of SCP-ABCD-A, any other human witnessing the accident becomes infected with SCP-ABCD. The spreading effect appies to all instances when sharing an accident. How the "infection" spreads by line of sight is currently unknown. Furthermore, the spreading effect is instantaneous. If no uninfected human witnessed an accident as it happened, the spreading event does not "pause" and all specimens will return to a non-infectious state.
If there is more than one specimen, they all share the experiences from accidents occuring to other specimens in a 600 m radius, hereafter designated the "Red Zone". All specimens inside the Red Zone of the source specimen will share any pain or injury, however, no matter how serious the injury appears to be, it is never fatal (see Addendum ABCD-A#1). Instances of SCP-ABCD-A can die of natural causes or by being killed purposefully. The death of an SCP-ABCD-A instance will cause all other SCP-ABCD-A instances within the Red Zone to lose consciousness for as long as 32 hours 21 minutes.
Addendum ABCD-A#1:
After Incident ABCD-I#5 (report not attached), it has been determined that normally fatal injuries, in addition to causing a spreading event to occur as normal, incapactitate other specimens inside the source specimen's Red Zone. The likelihood of recovering from this catatonic state is near-zero, does, however, increase marginally the further away the affected specimen was when the effect occured. SCP-ABCD-A in this state are referred to as SCP-ABCD-B, 3 2 of which are currently in containment.
Addendum ABCD-A#2: Following an unprovoked accident in which the SCP-ABCD-A instance in containment at the time of writing stubbed his toe on a chair and infected 3 security personnel, one researcher and their assistant, it has been decided that all of the room's furnishings are to be stored in a seperate room that security personnel is to bring them to and from. Containment procedures updated.
Test Logs ABCD-T:
Foreword: One security guard waited for Agent Y███ to signal the end of the test through closed-circuit audio, cameras recorded the procedures.
Procedures: Two infected Class-D personnel (D-ABCD-1863 and D-ABCD-1973) were blindfolded and placed halfway down a shooting range. Agent Y███ was then ordered to shoot down the hall with a Glock 17, [REDACTED] to be less accurate.
Results: The Agent's 7th shot hit D-ABCD-1863 in the lower abdomen, resulting in him and D-ABCD-1973 collapsing instantly. D-ABCD-1863 expired after 39 seconds due to massive blood loss and trauma. Following his death, the SCP-ABCD-A specimen in containment, as well as D-ABCD-1973 and Agent Y███ entered a catatonic state. At the time of writing, they have not recovered.
Foreword: One security guard waited for Agent ██████ to signal the end of the test through closed-circuit audio, cameras recorded the procedures.
Procedure: Agent ██████ was given a number of syringes. He was told that one of them contained a heavy sedative, not to be used on humans. Contrary to this, all syringes contained a sedative. He was ordered to inject D-ABCD-0928 with a syringe of his choice, yet try not to sedate him. It was assumed that D-ABCD-1973 losing consciousness would be considered an accident as the Agent tried to prevent that outcome.
Results: After Agent ██████ completed the injection, he realized that he "chose the wrong syringe". All three infected, including Agent ██████ and the SCP-ABCD-A specimen in containment, began showing signs of sleepiness. All three lost consciousness for exactly 2 hours 38 minutes.
Notes: It has been determined that the lapse into unconsciousness and what seems like a coma are different things, with the "death comas" being a far bigger problem if a containment breach with ABCD occurs. Testing concluded until further notice. – Head Researcher Clarke
Item #: SCP-XXX
Object Class: Euclid
Threat Level: ● Green (formerly ● Blue)
Special Containment Procedures: All established sites SCP-XXX is expected to shift to are to be staffed with no less than two (2) armed guards. They are to be ready for SCP-XXX's scheduled shifting to their site and report to SCP-XXX Project Lead Dr. ██████.
In the event that, upon shifting to the next scheduled site, SCP-XXX contains unexpected items of any kind, they are to be removed, possibly studied and disposed of. In the event that, upon shifting, SCP-XXX contains unexpected persons, Foundation or not, they are to be terminated immediately and their remains incinerated.
Remaining inside SCP-XXX after a shift for longer than required is prohibited (see Test Log XXX-T#2).
Any personnel present in the space SCP-XXX is expected to shift to in one (1) hour or less are to be removed, if necessary with force (see Incident Report XXX-I#1).
Description: SCP-XXX is the designation for the basement of an assumed 27 buildings which it periodically or through interaction shifts between. Site designations correspond to the order of where the basement shifts to.
It is currently not known
- how the spaces' different sizes and layouts are accounted for;
- how the furnishings present in the basement are moved to be in the same position relative to the new space;
- how, for example, plumbing running through the basement is moved along with it without affecting the house's water supply;
- how the door's position changes according to where old one was;
- where the buildings' old basement disappeared to;
- where objects disappear to which, upon shifting, would be inside, for example, the flight of stairs leading out of the basement.
Currently, sites XXX-S-2 through -23 have been established around all but four of the locations SCP-XXX shifts to. However, for 144 hours (4 cycles) after the shift from site -23, the location of the basement is unknown. It has been confirmed not to be at any of the other sites. Determining its whereabouts during this time is considered a Level 2 Matter of Priority.
Addendum XXX-A#1: SCP-XXX was being considered as a means of emergency transportation from Site-343. After the events of Incident XXX-I#1 and Test XXX-T#2, SCP-XXX's Threat Level has been raised to ● Green. The matter is not to be pursued further.
Incident Report XXX-I#1: On █/█/██ during routine cleaning of site XXX-S-21's basement space, a shift in site XXX-S-20 was triggered accidentally. SCP-XXX appeared in site XXX-S-21, leaving no trace of three janitorial staff initially. D-█████ is brought in to trigger SCP-XXX again. Personnel sent in to attempt a rescue. None of janitorial staff was found. XXX-S-22 did not report their presence, either. At the time of writing, all three personnel are still unaccounted for.
Test Logs XXX-T:
Procedure: A wooden table was placed in the basement, along with a brick and a small plant pot with Dracaena sanderiana. All items not interacted with further.
Results: After shifting, the entire space including all objects placed there shifted from site XXX-S-4 to XXX-S-5.
Study and testing procedures the table and brick were subjected to yielded expected results, revealing no changes in mass, composition or shape.
The plant pot, however, was filled with a mix of approximately 40% of the dirt and 60% of a previously unknown liquid composed of mostly water and [REDACTED]. Analysis also showed traces of Dracaena sanderiana DNA. Why or how this conversion occured is unknown.

D-36795 instructed to enter the basement. Subject hesitated, expressed nervosity, then descended the flight of stairs down into SCP-XXX at site XXX-S-16.
00:00:06
SCP-XXX shifted to site XXX-S-17. Video transmission from site XXX-S-17 confirms this. No anomalies observed. Subject D-36795 looks around, seemingly confused by the layout change of the room.
00:00:09
Command: D-36795, please describe the experience you just had.
D-36795: Felt ███████ weird, that's for sure. I walked in here, then it felt like something was pulling me back pretty hard, then it stopped and now we're here.
Command: Anything else?
D-36795: There's this itch now, right here. Wasn't there before.
Subject circles an area of skin on his arm. Slight red coloration observed.
Command: We can get medical to check that out, if you-
D-36795: Nah, it's not that b-
00:01:03
Subject stops talking abruptly and collapses to the floor.
Armed guard Agent ████ and medical staff is sent into the chamber to assess the situation.
As personnel approach, subject opens eyes and jumps towards Agent ████ and [DATA EXPUNGED]. One of the two medical staff manages to seal the blast door after fleeing outside while D-36795 [DATA EXPUNGED] the other.
00:03:57
Emergeny meeting between Head of Security Lambert and Project Lead Dr. ██████ called. Termination of subject is approved.
00:05:26
Patrol of security moved in and terminated subject with no further incident. Test concluded.
