Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept locked at all times. SCP-XXXX can only be opened personnel with Level 3 clearance or higher for approved testing purposes. Individuals who enter SCP-XXXX prior to 9:00 P.M. local time are to be removed immediately, forcibly if necessary.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a small hotel room, measuring roughly three meters cubed, located in the
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-XXXX is to be contained by locking SCP-XXXX-A in a padded room with no possessions including clothing. If containment lasts longer than two days SCP-XXXX-A is to be anesthetized and fed intravenously until containment ends.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a small wristwatch secured to the wearer wrist by an adjustable strap. SCP-XXXX is indestructible by all conventional means. SCP-XXXX appears to be bonded to the person of Dr. Phenomenon (referred to as SCP-XXXX-A). SCP-XXXX-A is a caucasian male, appearing to be in his early twenties. SCP-XXXX-A has no unique identifying features.You can call me Dr. Phen
SCP-XXXX's primary anomalous effect is its time travel abilities. SCP-XXXX detects the moment SCP-XXXX-A dies and then sends SCP-XXXX-A far enough back in time to prevent the events of his own death. The act of time travel erases all events in the timeline between SCP-XXXX-A's death and the point at which SCP-XXXX-A stops time traveling. A series of experiments performed by The Foundation have confirmed these properties. SCP-XXXX-A reports that while he is traveling back in time he cannot see anything except darkness and the luminescent hands of the watch with no other sensory input nor any perception of his body. SCP-XXXX-A also reports that he experiences this state for an equivalent amount of time to the amount of time he travels back. This information cannot be tested by The Foundation.
Recovery Log: SCP-XXXX-A was first encountered at the recovery of a minor SCP object recovery mission in the city of ██████, █████ in the United States. SCP-XXXX-A arrived shortly after the object had been recovered, yelling information about SCPs. Task Force Officer ██████ took SCP-XXXX-A into Foundation custody. Upon interview, SCP-XXXX-A introduced himself as Dr.Phenomenon, and briefly explained the nature of SCP-XXXX as well as his knowledge of The Foundation from a previous timeline.
Interview Log: SCP-XXXX-A
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX-A (Dr.Phenomenon)
Interviewer: Researcher ████
Foreword: After the period in which SCP-XXXX-A explained SCP-XXXX, A secondary interview was conducted to ascertain the motives of SCP-XXXX as well as his fitness to work (as per his request) as a Foundation researcher.
<Begin Log>
Researcher ████: You claim to be time traveler?
SCP-XXXX-A: That is correct.
Researcher ████: You understand that we cannot just take your word for it?
SCP-XXXX-A: I do and I anticipated that. I have prepared some experiments for review. These should confirm the watch's abilities.
SCP-XXXX-A hands Researcher ████ a small sheaf of papers. Researcher ████ looks over the first page.
Researcher ████: Interesting… I will have these looked at. For what reason did you try to be recovered by The Foundation?
SCP-XXXX-A: In the timeline previous to this one, I was recovered by The Foundation in my late thirties. Eventually I was trusted enough to become a researcher. During my time as a researcher, a some… unfortunate events occurred which resulted in the end of The Foundation. Then I reached the end of my life. I died of natural causes and the watch sent me back to the time right before I first put it on. It's the only opportunity I have to not wear it. I decided to put it back on and try and prevent what happened in the previous timeline. I knew I had to be recovered by the Foundation quickly and I also knew from Foundation records where a nearby recovery event would occur. I went there and was recovered. You know the rest.
Researcher ████: Which SCP?
SCP-XXXX-A: Pardon?
Researcher ████: What SCP caused the end of The Foundation?
SCP-XXXX-A: We always assume that an SCP will be the thing that ends us don't we? As far as I know, no part of the event was caused by an SCP.
Researcher ████: Then what happened?
SCP-XXXX-A: The O5s probably wouldn't want me to say it.
Researcher ████: The O5 council doesn't know you exist. I'm afraid I will have to insist you answer.
SCP-XXXX-A: (DATA REDACTED BY O5 ORDER)
Researcher ████: That doesn't actually explain what happened.
SCP-XXXX-A: Wait for it…
Researcher ████ receives an urgent phone call and ends the interview.
<End Log>Closing Statement: Following the interview SCP-XXXX-A had a private interview with an unknown O5. The testing proposed by SCP-XXXX-A has been approved and completed. SCP-XXXX-A was granted Level 3 clearance once testing was concluded.
SCP-XXXX-A: Three things happened: The Shattered Left Hand, The Esau Incident, and Event 410. They are collectively known as Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.
Though SCP-XXXX-A knows about The Left Hand, he is under no circumstances to be given Nightshade level information. O5-█
Experiment Log: SCP-XXXX
Note: The experiments proposed by SCP-XXXX-A were approved and carried out by Doctor ██████. The experiments were essentially SCP-XXXX-A being locked in a room with a password protected exit.
After three minutes, the password system deactivates. A minute later the password was revealed to SCP-XXXX-A by a speaker placed inside the room and deadly nerve gas was also released into the room. In each test SCP-XXXX-A was given no advance knowledge of the type of test he would be taking. Test types not proposed by SCP-XXXX-A are marked with an asterisk (*)
Test A
Subject: SCP-XXXX-A
Password: Three digit numerical code. (372)
Results: SCP-XXXX-A sits quietly near the password input system for the first 2.5 minutes. In the last 30 seconds, SCP-XXXX-A quickly stands up and punches in the correct password.
Test B
Subject: SCP-XXXX-A
Password: Five digit numerical code. (5014)
Results: SCP-XXXX-A sits quietly near the password input system for the first 2.5 minutes. In the last 30 seconds, SCP-XXXX-A quickly stands up and inputs the correct password.
Test C *
Subject: SCP-XXXX-A
Password: Twenty digit numerical code. (70941833602952077615)
Results: SCP-XXXX-A sits quietly near the password input system for the first 2 minutes. In the last minute, SCP-XXXX-A expresses surprise and quickly stands up and inputs the correct password.
Test D
Subject: SCP-XXXX-A
Password: Ten Letter word. (Scarecrows)
Results: SCP-XXXX-A sits quietly near the password input system for the first 2.5 minutes. In the last 30 seconds, SCP-XXXX-A quickly stands up and inputs the correct password.
Test E *
Subject: SCP-XXXX-A
Password: Subject must place his hand on the door and say aloud, "Dead men tell no tales".
Results: SCP-XXXX-A sits quietly near the password input system for the first 2 minutes. In the last minute, SCP-XXXX-A quickly stands up walks over to the door, places his hand on it and states very clearly, "Dead men tell no tales". As SCP-XXXX-A exits the room he was recorded saying, "That was clever".
Test F *
Test was proposed but never carried out.
Subject: SCP-XXXX-A
Password: No password was given
Results: Before the experiment began SCP-XXXX-A reported that he had experienced Test F twice already. SCP-XXXX-A proceeded to tell Doctor ██████ the name of his childhood dog (Thomas). SCP-XXXX-A describes how the absence of a password in an experiment sent him back in time far enough to avoid the test and prevent a time loop. According to SCP-XXXX-A, Doctor ██████ from the previous timeline had told SCP-XXXX-A his dog's name when SCP-XXXX-A described the possibility of causing a time loop. As Doctor ██████ had never told anyone this information, SCP-XXXX-A's testimony was accepted and the test was called off.
SCP-XXXX:
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be directly observed at least once a week for physical changes and to be under video surveillance at all times in the event of a behavioral change. One cow is to is to be dropped into the pit every two days to feed SCP-XXXX. D-class personnel are to be used when data collections necessitates a person to enter the pit. Only Researchers with Level 3 clearance and above are allowed to order expeditions into the pit. The researcher must monitor the expedition from the rim of the pit until all members of the expedition are out of the pit.
If SCP-XXXX is observed to begin to leave the pit, the area is to be evacuated and SCP-XXXX is to be observed by Foundation aircraft until it begins digging a new pit. Once SCP-XXXX has completed it's pit and ceased movement, research personnel may resume activities near the new pit. SCP-XXXX is to be neutralized by air-to-ground missiles only if it endangers a large inhabited area.
Description: SCP-XXXX is an ant-lion (myrmeleon formicarius) larvae, colloquially known as a, "doodlebug". SCP-XXXX is anomalous due to the fact that it is approximately 20 meters long. Apart from its large size, SCP-XXXX behaves in a manner consistent with its species, using its flat lower body to launch earth while digging a cone shaped pit, burying itself inside the center of the pit with only its jaws exposed, and launching earth at any prey that falls into its pit, causing the prey to slide towards the center. Any prey that that falls into the center of the pit is impaled on the mandibles of SCP-XXXX and consumed. If SCP-XXXX goes to long without feeding, it has been observed to enlarge its pit. The pit is currently 100 meters in depth. The Foundation has decided to feed SCP-XXXX cows rather than risk it relocating to find food. Generally SCP-XXXX ceases activity after being fed and the pit can be entered safely.
Discovery: SCP-XXXX was found in the state of ██████ in the United States in a remote desert location on July 7, 20██ due to information from the civilians involved in the recovery of SCP-████. Foundation officials set up a perimeter and began observation. Initially labeled SCP-████-A, SCP-XXXX was reclassified as a distinct SCP due to its unique needs and characteristics. A small research building was added to house researchers and monitoring equipment.
Addendum A: If SCP-XXXX begins to form a cocoon, Foundation Headquarters are to be notified immediately.
Ant-lion larvae mature into larger, winged, insects. It would be far more difficult to contain SCP-XXXX if it develops in this manner. - Dr. Phenomenon
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be stored upside down in a standard storage locker. SCP-XXXX can only be removed by personnel with Level 3 clearance or higher. Individuals who consume SCP-XXXX-A outside of a testing environment are to receive immediate orthodontic attention.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a red and white striped, plastic popcorn container with, "popcorn", written on the side in block letters. SCP-XXXX is always full of lightly buttered popped popcorn hereafter labeled SCP-XXXX-A. Whenever SCP-XXXX-A is removed from SCP-XXXX, an equal amount appears after a brief period of time. If SCP-XXXX is emptied completely and placed with the open end of the container down, no instances SCP-XXXX-A appear. This also occurs if SCP-XXXX is filled completely with any liquid or solid.
The anomalous effects of SCP-XXXX-A occur only when they are consumed by a human. If the individual gets part of the kernel of SCP-XXXX-A caught between their teeth or gums, SCP-XXXX will immediately become empty. After this point, unless the first kernel piece is removed, more and more kernels fragments appear in the subjects teeth at a rate of about one fragment every five seconds. This pattern continues for about an hour, then ceases. If the original kernel piece is removed, the anomaly will end immediately and all other kernel fragments disappear. The subject often experiences extreme discomfort and some gum damage, but rarely any serious injury.
Note: The bottom of SCP-XXXX has a small cursive phrase that reads,"Why not?".
Item #: SCP-XXXX-J
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX-J is to be kept at a classified location, known only to the O5 Council.
Description: SCP-XXXX-J is an indestructible switch that always exists somewhere within The Foundation Database. When activated, research personnel become able to re-contain Keter object without any aid, SCP objects are regularly used for pranks, and many documents become unnecessarily censored and contained records of Wacky Hi-Jinx unprofessional activities. The switch was activated for about a year in ████ before it was noticed and de-activated. The O5 Council has since hidden the switch to prevent chaos within The Foundation.
I found it! - Dr. Phenomenon
You tell anyone and I'll [Data Expunged] you and your stupid watch… Wait… YOU HIT THE SWITCH DIDN"T YOU, YOU [Profanity Redacted]. - O5-█
