This anomaly is currently under review by the Foundation's Ethics committee under the #6000 reclassification-reevaluation sub-committee. All testing and authorization is subject to scrutiny under Ethos section-9, chapter 2, sub chapter 23, line and proposition 1. Any procedure written below is subject to change at any time. The ethics committee holds no responsibility for misconduct practiced in lieu of procedure adaptation. Be aware that during committee review the designated rating may not be the true categorization of the anomaly. Should there be any inquiries, please contact Dr. Pharrow who will initiate communication. It will take 2-3 working days before we may reply.
Item #: SCP-6000
Object Class: Humanoid
Containment Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-6000 is held in a custom humanoid containment cell 5m x 5m in an isolated wing of site-69. The cell holds one (1) bed, bolted down, a sink built into the wall, and two (2) spherical cameras equipped with ballistic glass. Due to SCP-6000’s capabilities, occasional lack of cooperation and incapacitation attempts, padded lining is installed on the perimeter of the room. The ceiling, walls and floor are made of a specialized concrete-volcanic obsidian mix and 50 mm of depleted uranium plating with necessary lead protections separate the container from the foundation of the facility. Two (2) armed guards are stationed outside of SCP-6000s cell at all times and the security cameras are to be monitored on a closed circuit by a third at the wing’s entrance. The guards are each equipped with one (1) standard rifle with modified depleted uranium ammunition, one (1) standard pistol with same ammunition, and two (2) modified flashbangs with a volcanic glass encasing. Any access to the wing must be granted and overseen by Dr. Pharrow.
Once a week SCP-6000 will be required to attend a two (2) hour session with Foundation assigned psychologist Anne Zepark for the purpose of therapeutic and psychological evaluation. Three (3) guards are to escort the subject to and from its sessions during which the facility must be on standby to enact lockdown procedures. During this two hour session, SCP-6000’s cell will be searched for any contraband as well as potential damages hidden from the purview of the cameras. Should any illicit material be found it will be confiscated and the subject suitably reprimanded. Any damage will be thoroughly repaired with sizable destruction leading to the removal of SCP-6000 into a temporary containment cell while repairs are undertaken.
SCP-6000 is to be given standard humanoid meals three (3) times a day. At 8am and 8pm every day, it is required to take a 10 mg oral tablet of escitalopram. If SCP-6000 shows good behavior and cooperates with research and facility staff it will be given access to a tiered set of privileges. A week of good behavior allows SCP-6000 to request literature of its choice–barring anything that may inspire subterfuge, encourage it to escape or help it breach containment. A month of good behavior will allow it to customize its meals, providing they are within dietary guidelines. Should SCP-6000 achieve three months of good behavior it may make limited requests [See Document: Requests #6000-A for samples]. An incapacitation attempt, especially if successful, or any disobedience leads to immediate loss of privileges.
In the event that SCP-6000 enters a fully incapacitated state, all personnel are required to evacuate the wing and two (2) Class-D [preferably male and clinically overweight] under the supervision of MTF Ω-∞ "End Times", are to be sent in to satisfy the subject. Should attempts SCP-6000 still remain active, Ω-∞ will lure the subject to the entrance corridor where an automated, platform mounted, autoloading Rheinmetall 105mm modified smoothbore should be primed and prepped to fire. The smoothbore uses a revolving cartridge of six (6) APFSDS rounds made of depleted uranium and solidified obsidian. Due to the damaging nature of the rounds and the danger of SCP-6000, MTF C are to retreat from the wing and seal the entrance. Should SCP-6000 still remain active, breach charges sealed within the structural supports of the corridor are to be detonated.
Description: SCP-6000 has the appearance of an average Caucasian male of mixed descent weighing 81 kilograms and standing just shy of 188 centimeters. The only outstanding characteristics of the entity is blonde hair, green eyes and a knotted scar passing from the sternum to the left most floating rib. SCP-6000 is considered generally docile and amiable. However, due to stresses of Foundation containment, it may occasionally become cagey and distraught. Psychological evaluations ascertained it is prone to bouts of depression and anxiety. While this doesn’t have a direct effect on SCP-6000’s condition, occasional manic episodes may force it to attempt to incapacitate itself to incite an SCP-6000-U instance. Further, when it is irritated it may encourage similar actions expressed during a manic episode. This includes trying to incapacitate itself by slamming its head repeatedly against a solid object, trying to suffocate itself, attempting to assault personnel, etc.
When injury is sustained to any part of SCP-6000 a thick, crystalline structure resembling volcanic obsidian covers the inflicted area. Cuts and small injuries steadily scab over in a thin layer and more severe injuries lead to rapid, tumorous reactions across the inflicted areas. Should an appendage be amputated, the severed body part will regrow as a crystal replica. In a matter of minutes to hours [depending on the severity of the injury] the crystalline substance will flake away and the injury will appear fully healed. Any flesh removed from SCP-6000 will decay at an exponential rate into a fine ash with the anatomical make-up of cremated muscle and tissue. See Document: Experiment Logs #6000-24/37/41/50-54.
Blood tests show an upsurge in white blood cells during and after an injury event as well as a fundamental structure closer to that of a mineral, though it still retains a nucleus and bacteria. An early biopsy concluded nominal structures with the occasional traces of an unidentified substance. Further attempts at ascertaining this substance were difficult due to the nature of SCP-6000.
If SCP-6000 is put into a state that would either incapacitate or terminate a normal individual, its body begins to grow the obsidian structure at an accelerated rate. The subject’s hands are encased in crude claws capable of cutting through 15 inches of reinforced steel. The subject's head is enveloped in a crystalline visage resembling an amalgamate of three (3) different species of male cervid. Its antlers resemble that of a caribou’s [ Rangifer Tarandus ], its skull has the appearance of an elk stag [ Cervus Canadensis ] and protruding from the upper jaw are a set of fangs not dissimilar to a water deer’s [ Hydropotes Inermis ] and the fangs and antlers are capable of piercing through 35 inches of reinforced steel. In this state [now classified as SCP-6000-U] the subject will attempt to consume up to a minimum of 350 pounds of human flesh [two (2) adult males of average weight] and will remain active until doing so. SCP-6000-U displays heightened perception and increased aggression,
Incendiaries, explosives and kinetic trauma have no effect at this stage with the only known method of pacification through the use of high velocity projectiles with excessive density and integrated obsidian material. This incapacitates SCP-6000-U [Now designated SCP-6000-D] and, after a period of inactivity, SCP-6000 will resume normal function. Direct means of pacification do not need to take place, however. If SCP-6000-U is left undisturbed it will naturally enter its SCP-6000-D state after a period of 6 to 12 hours.
SCP-6000 was initially discovered in the ████████ █████ desert in California after a police report was filed for a car collision along I-15 at 2:58 am. Witnesses reported a young man thrown from his bike and swept under the wheels of a pickup truck. When the man driving the vehicle [along with his wife who facilitated the police report] stepped out, it appeared that the subject had entered an incapacitation state and terminated the husband and wife, as well as partially consuming one of their two daughters in the back seat. Dashcam footage and later testament from an arriving officer reported SCP-6000 fleeing into the desert. It was later apprehended and taken into foundation custody after two agents posing as federal officers subsequently found SCP-6000 wandering naked along the highway.
Examinations Under Evaluation
The below experiments are under enquiry for potential ethic violations. All current and future tests and their proposals are suspended for the duration of this review.
Test: 6000/24 Date: 1/5/2019
Presiding Researcher: Dr. Pharrow.
Proposal: Subject is restrained and placed into a manufactured scenario to invoke a fight or flight response. A single D-class personnel with a history of violence and mental disturbance is instructed to threaten Subject with a firearm. The weapon is unloaded.
Status: Accepted; Completed.
Result: Subject shows symptoms of an adrenal reaction. It struggles against the restraints but no noticeable anomalous occurrence takes place. After the D-class is removed, it is noted there is a thin line of obsidian-like substance where the subject’s skin pressed against the restraints. It is returned to its containment cell.
Conclusion: It seems SCP-6000 is incapable of summoning its anomalous effects voluntarily. Even in situations where its life is at risk, it must be injured or incapacitated to become a danger.
Test: 6000/37 Date: 4/23/2019
Presiding Researcher: Junior Researcher Ross.
Proposal: Subject is given one (1) 8 oz Styrofoam cup of orange juice [pulpy] laced with a high dose of hydrocyanic acid [ Cyanide ] and instructed to consume it.
Status: Accepted; Completed.
Result: Subject refuses to drink until threatened with loss of privileges. Subject comments on acrid taste before falling unconscious. A few minutes after it is assumed to have experienced rapid, total organ failure. Approximately 1 minute and 30 seconds later the crystalline substance grows rapidly from all points of the body, subject rises as SCP-6000-U and breaches containment.
Conclusion: SCP-6000 is affected by internal injuries. It is assumed that any instance, object, or organism that could terminate a individual can incapacitate SCP-6000 regardless of external or internal assault.
Personal Note: I want the idiot who thought up this plan to be put on keter duty. Not only was it a gross misuse of foundation assets, but it was abhorrently dangerous and required only a modicum of common sense to realize that giving an anomaly that is most dangerous when it is incapacitated a lethal poison was a horrendously stupid idea! Of course poison would incapacitate it! InTerNal InJuRieS! What were you idiots thinking? What if you killed it? I am not going to explain to the ethics committee how you murdered an anomalous humanoid if it had died, nor am I going to stand in front of them and explain how 14 personnel were terminated in its rampage! Christ, this is what I get for taking weekends! I demand that all future scenarios go through my office.

Test: 6000/41 Date: 7/15/2019
Presiding Researcher: Dr. Pharrow.
Proposal: Subject is suitably restrained and partially sedated. Blunt force trauma applied on arms and legs to facilitate bruising. Effects will be studied. Caution will be taken to ensure the subject remains conscious.
Status: Accepted-contested by Dr. Pharrow; Completed.
Result: Subject is administered an oral painkiller and consumes it consensually. Subject is unaware of the further disorienting effects of the sedative and swiftly becomes incoherent. Class-D is instructed to strike the subject's arms and legs with a closed fist. Class-D is then instructed to do the same but with a light hammer. Effects are observed and Class-D is instructed to induce a hairline fracture along subjects right femur, and splinter its left elbow. Subject is reported to cry out in pain but is dismissed. In the interim before the sedative fades several x-rays are taken. The hairline fracture is covered and presumably filled with the obsidian substance. Bone fragments from the elbow are absorbed at an accelerated rate and a new elbow cap forms from the same substance on the femur. Bruises appear at an unprecedented rate, no sign of obsidian is seen. Three (3) minutes after, the epidermis layer sloughs off and an obsidian layer is observed beneath. Expired skin quickly turned to ash. Subject regains clarity an hour later visibly confused and openly hostile. It is returned to its containment cell.
Conclusion: This corroborates earlier theories that SCP-6000's anomalous properties can be likened to a more specialized immune system that responds at an accelerated and unique rate to injury. It prioritizes harsher wounds and can distinguish between useless 'scrap' produced by an injury, and what should be kept. We don't see a total replacement of the elbow or femur, instead concentrated anomalous flare ups. It doesn't quite explain why the the substance didn't cover the epidermis of the above bruising. What is more intriguing, however, is how the subject reacted. Its low groans of pain, heard even through the particularly high dosage of morphine, could SCP-6000 enter an incapacitation event if fully sedated? It doesn't enter an SCP-6000-U state when it sleeps. Would pain suitable enough to incapacitate an individual incite SCP-6000-U? What does it define as an incapacitation event?
Personal Note: The scientist in me grows excited at the thought of more study on SCP-6000. The psychologist curls his lips at what is being done. I've heard rumblings from fellow colleagues that I am becoming perhaps, what could it be called, merciful? I understand I am expected to be detached from my studies. This is purely clinical. These are not totally people, they are accidents waiting to happen. To a degree I agree, but I've had the unique opportunity of understanding the personality behind this "beast" and it rather pains me to see such…crude experiments suggested. I'm not suggesting we make SCP-6000 the next 999, god knows the vast difference between gooey, burbling joy and an onyx entity that could gouge through your skull with impressive antlers. All I ask is that we consider "it" when we propose these experiments. Ask for its consent. I know the ethics committee will read this experiment log for reactive assurance, so: my two cents.
Test: 6000/50 Date: 8/04/2019
Presiding Researcher: Junior Researcher Ross.
Proposal: Subject encounters SCP-███. Potential means for indefinite containment of SCP-███ or neutralization of SCP-6000.
Status: Denied.
Result: Not Applicable.
Conclusion: Not Applicable.
Test: 6000/51 Date: 8/05/2019
Presiding Researcher: Junior Researcher Ross.
Proposal: Subject placed into an incapacitation event and a small child placed in cell. Reaction of subject would be observed and noted. Reason for proposal is determine how entity perceives organisms who are considered non-threatening.
Status: Denied.
Result: Not Applicable.
Conclusion: Not Applicable.
Test: 6000/52 Date: 8/06/2019
Presiding Researcher: Junior Researcher Ross.
Proposal: Subject and SCP-███ contained in the same chamber to study the effects of exsanguination.
Status: Denied.
Result: Not Applicable.
Conclusion: Not Applicable.
Test: 6000/53 Date: 8/07/2019
Presiding Researcher: Junior Researcher Ross.
Proposal: Place subject in ground zero of a small nuclear detonation to measure effects of atomization on entity's anomalous capabilites.
Status: Denied.
Result: Not Applicable.
Conclusion: Not Applicable.
Test: 6000/54 Date: 8/10/2019
Presiding Researcher: Dr. Pharrow.
Proposal: Termination of Junior Researcher Ross through purposeful incapacitation of subject at the discretion of subject for purpose of catharsis. Subject would not be reprimanded.
Status: Accepted-contested by Junior Research Ross; Amended; Completed.
Result: Junior Research Ross protests as he is forced into subject's containment cell. Subject requests a length of string. Request granted under security supervision. Subject ties string around upper left arm and proceeds to stare at Junior Researcher Ross. Approximately three (3) hours pass before any notable change. Subject is heard grunting occasionally and Junior Researcher Ross bangs on the containment cell door while muttering incoherent pleas. Subject's arm shows signs of advanced circulatory stagnation. Just under an hour passes before skin on entity's left arm bulges and peels off. Obsidian claws are observed similar to those seen in an SCP-6000-U instance. As a precautionary measure site is put on standby for lockdown. Suggestions are made to halt test but denied by Dr. Pharrow. Junior Researcher Ross renews pleas for mercy and cowers as subject approaches. Three minutes later Junior Researcher Ross is considered deceased. Severe lacerations around the neck and face are considered primary reasons for termination. Several of Junior Researcher Ross' bones are shattered, notably the left elbow and right femur. Subject is placed back in its containment cell. It complies with every request willingly.
Conclusion: Despite the…uniqueness of the scenario, critical observations proved cell death can incite a rupture of crystalline substance. Presumably, circulatory hazards such as frost bite can achieve the same result as observed within the test. But when is there enough decay for SCP-6000 to adopt its anomalous properties? Does every cell within the entity posses anomalous properties, each, at some microscopic level always repairing and re-growing? Does the subject's DNA decay? What if it suffers a stroke or seizure level injury that eliminates part of its brain matter, do the exact neurons grow again?
Personal Note: Admin was right. He was useful.
Addendum: After a major containment breach, SCP-6000 is to be banned from consuming any and all beverages with caffeine content higher than 10mg/100 ml. Please see Incident Report-6000/CB regarding SCP-6000.
