Containment Class:
esoteric
Secondary Class:
uncontained
Special Containment Procedures: All personnel at Site 14 must undergo psychological screening for any symptoms of SCP-0000 (see Addendum 0000-D). Site 14 must be brightly lit to make it an adverse environment for SCP-0000 to manifest. All personnel working on SCP-0000 must live on Site to prevent any possibility of a Phobos-Noia memetic breach. If any personnel want to transfer off of SCP-0000 research, they must receive Class-C targeted retrograde amnestics. PDTF Rho-12 ("The Inquisition") is to be on standby in case of any further widespread outbreak of SCP-0000. PDTF Rho-12 is currently isolating hosts of SCP-0000 within Zone-S140000 and within a 16 km perimeter of Site 14.
Host Containment Procedures:
All Stage Three hosts are to be held in a Specialized Infohazard/Memetic Quarantine Humanoid Containment Unit on Level B17, Sectors 3-4, affixed with four fluorescent lights that are to be kept on 24/7 to minimize the possibility of SCP-0000-1 manifestations. The Containment Unit must also be affixed with a computer for both an SCP-0000 specialist therapist and entertainment. All Stage Three host are to be given 5mg Strength Melatonin to reduce the effects of both constant light and the already onset Insomnia.
All Stage Four hosts are to be held in a Standard Infohazard/Memetic Quarantine Humanoid Containment Unit on Level B17, Sectors 5-6. Said Containment Unit is to have a computer unit for both an SCP-0000 specialized therapist and entertainment. All Stage Four Hosts are to be regularly psychologically screened for the chance of improvement. All Stage Four Hosts are to be given a 10mg Strength Melatonin to reduce the Insomnia. Should a Stage Four host request euthanization, they may receive it after a minimum 10-minute discussion with an SCP-0000 specialist therapist.
Temporary Containment Procedure Update 12/██/201█:
Following Incident 5CBS14F, the county of Washington, ██, henceforth referred to as Zone-3S140000 has been removed from all US documents, until further notice. Amnestics should be administered to all persons within a five-kilometer radius of Zone-S140000 to protect against an investigation by civilians. Until S140000's former state can be recovered, a 0.5 km perimeter has been set up around S140000 to prevent any further leakage of SCP-0000. PDTF Rho-12 ("The Inquisition") 1-16 will isolate individual hosts of SCP-0000 and bring them into containment until a more long-term procedure can be created. Following the Containment Breach, all hosts have been moved to Level 17, Sectors 3-6 to prevent the possibility of escape by an Upper-Level Containment Breach. All new hosts are to be moved to the standard Cells with the past hosts.
PDTF Rho-12:17-27 are to be investigating the ██ unaccounted for hosts who escaped during Incident 5CBS14F. The surrounding local governments have been supplied a description of the missing ██ hosts under the guise of a missing person report and have been told that the hosts are mentally unstable and dangerous an escaped convict. PDTF Rho-12:25-27 are to be on standby for any reports of the hosts. PDTF Rho-12:28-35 are to set up a perimeter around Site 14 with a radius of 95 km known as Special Zone-4S140000 and closing by enlisting all local governments within that area.
All recovered hosts who cured of SCP-0000 are to be anmesticized, placed in nearby towns, and provided cover stories following standard AACC (Anomaly Affected Civilian Cover) protocol.
Provisional Containment Procedure Update 6/██/201█:
By order of the Site Director:
As of 2/██/201█, martial law has been declared in Special Zone-4S140000, under the guise of a large scale natural disaster. All soldiers are to be given weapons-free status (shoot unless confirmed ally). No further affected civilians are to be given housing or long term treatment. All found affected individuals are to either amnestied if possible or euthanized.
Description: SCP-0000 is a memetic psychological obligate parasite. It will use its host both for energy (Via draining the host's [DATA EXPUNGED]) and, to reproduce via spreading the meme. When the parasite has drained sufficient amounts of [DATA EXPUNGED] from the host, it will be able to manifest itself in a physical or quasi-physical form.
SCP-0000 has been categorized into five distinct stages. These stages are recognizable by the common symptoms of hosts. Symptoms may vary from host to host but generally, the early stages will be categorized by nyctophobia and autophobia, and the later stages will always have very severe mental conditions following with SCP-0000 manifestations. For a complete list of stages, symptoms, and treatments, see Addendum 0000-D.
As previously mentioned, once SCP-0000 has sufficient amounts of [DATA EXPUNGED], it will be able to manifest itself in a physical or quasi-physical form. These forms allow SCP-0000 to gain more [DATA EXPUNGED], more efficiently in an exponential manner. Each of the manifestation types represents a different stage in the SCP-0000 lifecycle. It should also be noted that when the meme is transferred, generally speaking, multiple instances of SCP-0000 are transferred. For a complete list of Manifestation Types, descriptions and stages, see Addendum 0000-E.
After reports of a school-wide epidemic, consistent to that of a memetic epidemic (with SCP-0000 Stages 1-3), the Foundation was contacted. After being contacted, PDTF Rho-12 ("The Inquisition") was formed and sent to deal with the possible memetic epidemic. All members of Rho-12 have both infohazardous and memetic resistance. After a mass amnestic administration, SCP-0000 was attempted to be documented and was then found to be a meme. This resulted in the second outbreak of SCP-0000 in which PDTF Rho-12 was crucial in recovering the staff who had attempted to document the first epidemic.
Experiment Log 0000-A.3:
Foreword: Experiment 0000-B.3 was proposed in hopes of finding new treatments for the later stages of SCP-0000. After the Ethics Committee Permission, Experiment 0000-B.7 was cleared for testing. Experiment Log, following.
Date: 09/15/201█
Procedure: Multiple D-Class were exposed to SCP-0000 in a controlled environment to test new possible treatments for SCP-0000 Stages 3&4. Treatments proposed the following:
- Complete Amnestic Wipe
- Electroculvision Therapy
- Antipsychotics
- Lobotomy of Frontal Lobe and Amygdala
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
- Psychoeducation
- Psychotherapy
- Hospitalization
- Guided Self-Help
- Counselling
Result: Numbered in order of the above list:
- Failure
- Failure
- Indeterminate Results
- Testing Rejected by Ethics Committee
- Success
- Canceled due to Subject Aggravation
- Canceled due to Subject Aggravation
- Success
- Failure
- Success
Notes: Also numbered in order of Treatment list:
1. Amnestic Resistance was stronger than thought before. This could become a security issue.
3. Seeing as the manifestations are physical it may be possible to test whether the hallucinations are just varying forms of SCP-0000, barring on hallucinations including physical sensations. This must be further researched.
6/7. It may work under different circumstances. Test request pending.
8. We're requesting further funding to allow for use of this treatment. Until allowed, proceed with the other viable treatments.
-Doctor Rook
8. Request Denied Doctor, we've already put so many resources into this project with the allowances of Level B17 and with Rho-12. The Foundation isn't made of money. -Site Director H█████
Specific List of Known Recent Hosts:
Notes: The below list does not include Hosts from the Initial Outbreak, the secondary outbreak, or Incident 5CBS14F. For a complete list of hosts, please contact the current Head Researcher of SCP-0000. This list was last updated on 03/██/201█

| Manifestation Type |
Description |
Stage(s) of Manifestation |
| SCP-0000-1 |
A quasi-physical entity that will manifest when the host is both alone and in darkness. It will generally try to taunt/scare the host to gain [DATA EXPUNGED]. |
STAGE THREE AND FOUR |
| SCP-0000-2 |
A physical entity that will manifest when the host is alone. It will put the host through immense pain and give them light lacerations around the wrists and neck area if they are in an open, isolated area. |
STAGE FOUR |
| SCP-0000-3 |
A quasi-physical entity resembling the host's body that will try to impersonate the host and spread the meme. |
STAGE FIVE |
Notes: It is as of yet, unknown why SCP-0000-2 gives its hosts lacerations, especially around both the wrists and neck. It is hypothesized by Senior Researcher ███████ that these lacerations both act as a lure for other potential hosts to spread the meme and, as a way to gain more [DATA EXPUNGED]. Testing permission is pending with the Ethics Committee.
The number of contained/neutralized hosts as of 02/██/201█, are as follows:
| Stage |
Amount |
| STAGE THREE |
One Hundred Eight |
| STAGE FOUR |
Ninty Three |
| TOTAL CONTAINMENT |
Two Hundred One |
| STAGE FIVE |
Three Hundred Twenty-Nine |
| RECOVERED |
Seven Hundred Thirty Four |
Notes: Contained Stage 2 Hosts have been omitted due to the variable number of hosts contained. For more specific examples of hosts, please see Addendum 0000-C.
Incident Report 5CBS14F-0000:
Foreword: Following a Class-5 Containment Breach at Site 14 on December ██, 201█, multiple Hosts escaped from Site 14. this resulted in an epidemic of SCP-0000 in Washington, ██. To protect against any further spread of SCP-0000, Zone-S140000 (Washington, ██) has been removed from all US documents and records, is currently under Containment until all Hosts and instances can be contained. See Containment Procedure Update 12/██/201█. This the Third known outbreak of SCP-0000.

The prior report was as of 02/██/201█.
Debrief: The Containment Breach resulted in the loss of ██ Stage-4 hosts and 15 Stage-3 hosts. ██ of the hosts are currently unaccounted for, and their tracker chips have been removed and/or deactivated through some unknown process, hypothesized to have been forcefully removed or damaged by SCP-0000 manifestations judging by the corpses and bodies of some of the recovered. PDTF Rho-12 members 17-27 are currently searching for these subjects. The surrounding local governments have been alerted of these individuals under the guise of missing person reports and have been warned that the individuals are mentally unstable and dangerous. PDTF Rho-12: 25-27 are to be on standby to respond to any reports of the unaccounted for individuals. The maximum estimate for how far the individuals have is a radius of approximately 15km around Site 14. A perimeter around Site 14 of 16 km is currently being set up using PDTF Rho-12:28-35. A total of 12 out of the ██ hosts have been recovered, 5 of whom, were comatose/deceased. It is unknown whether some of the hosts had died from blood loss as opposed to the onset of Stage 5.
