Dr. Morphius

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be contained at all times in a no less than 6m x 5m x 6m airtight steel cube with sufficient food and water to last one (1) week. The food is to be replaced every seven (7) days, even if none appears to be consumed. Any personnel within range of SCP-XXXX's anomalous capabilities without a full-body atmosphere-containment suit are to be delivered to the Site-██ medical bay to receive Class-B amnestics. SCP-XXXX's containment cell is currently located in the ████████ Desert, away from any other creatures. In the event of a containment breach, all personnel currently in Site-██ are to immediately don a full-body atmosphere-containment suit and await further instructions.

Description: SCP-XXXX has the appearance of a large, furless ursus americanus, or black bear, with a slight purple tinge and luminous yellow eyes. SCP-XXXX has proved to be hostile towards humans, but will not attempt to breach containment unless lured, hypnotised or otherwise provoked. SCP-XXXX's anomalous properties are revealed when its nourishment levels decline significantly enough to warrant what has been dubbed a "Hunt." Following sufficient decline, SCP-XXXX will attempt to release a frequency wave that can permeate any known material, with a range of up to 100m. Any live animal (including humans) within this perimeter will enter a trance-like state and within one (1) minute of the wave's release will attempt to locate and enter SCP-XXXX's containment cell, where they will then be killed and then either discarded or eaten. If the prey is unable to reach SCP-XXXX's cell, they will snap out of the trance after 20 minutes. These Hunt events have a significant chance of triggering a containment breach, in which case personnel are to observe the instructions listed in the Containment Procedures.
