Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept in a 24m/24m/3m room and is to be given minimal furnishing made of inorganic polymers in the form of one (1) bed, one (1) chair and one (1) table. A large polymer glass sheet is to be put in place to split the room into two areas at a ratio of 1:3, separated by a reinforced door consisting of inorganic material. A communication system is to be built in between the two halves to interview SCP-XXXX. Interviewing SCP-XXXX requires express approval from Dr. ███ and Dr. ██████. A heavy electromagnet is to be installed behind the containment site for emergency containment following [REDACTED].
Interviewing SCP-XXXX requires at least one (1) linguist present.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a mechanical entity natively resembling a humanoid roughly 182 centimeters in height, and appears to be made of various metal pieces joined with various gears and winches. It vaguely resembles a human skeleton in makeup and dressed in wooden ornaments across its arms, torso, legs and head, all of which only covering a specific area described within addendum XXXX-02 in further detail. Movements conducted by SCP-XXXX have been consistently accompanied by the sound of rotating gears.
SCP-XXXX appears to possess human-like speaking skills and advanced language skills, often vocalizing words and phrases in various languages, and requesting food and beverages constantly. It is aware of the closed-circuit camera installed in its cell, and often attempts to converse with it.
When given any form of organic material, SCP-XXXX will remove its wooden head-cover and proceed to consume the material rapidly, vocalizing enjoyment for whatever it has eaten. Over the course of three hours, when not directly observed, SCP-XXXX will begin to convulse rapidly and ‘process’ the organic material until it is completely added to its body. Through this process, SCP-XXXX appears to gain mass and additional ‘pieces’ which are added to its body. See Addendum XXXX-01 for more information.
Addendum XXXX-01 - Recovery: Initial recovery of SCP-XXXX has been performed in the ████ region by MTF-████. SCP-XXXX, at the time, reached approximately nine (9) meters in height and assumed a form loosely resembling a canid with six (6) legs and two (2) unknown appendages protruding from its back. The recovery process has initially lasted █ hours and two (2) personnel sustained minor injuries. SCP-XXXX has, after containment, shed all of its additional ‘parts’ which in turn were studied, incinerated and destroyed. Study has shown no anomalous properties within the pieces recovered from SCP-XXXX.
Addendum XXXX-02: SCP-XXXX has various wooden ornaments on its body, specifically:
- One (1) full piece of oak shaped to fit a human head, covering SCP-XXXX’s entire face, scalp, temples and atlas,
*Four (4) polished oak arm-guards, situated on both upper- and forearms,
*Four (4) polished oak leg-guards, situated on the thighs and calves,
*Two (2) polished oak hand-guards, situated on the back of each hand.
All of these ornaments appear to serve no purpose outside of decoration, and have been shown to reappear after destruction. SCP-XXXX will react negatively if one of the wooden ornaments are removed from its possession.
Addendium XXXX-03 - Consumption of Organic Materal: During various interviews, SCP-XXXX has been administered various organic materials to consume. The achieved results are as following:
*One (1) cup of distilled water — No effect
*A box of screws - Marginal increase in finger length
*Cup of [REDACTED] provided by SCP-294 - SCP-XXXX refused to drink it.
*One (1) sheep - Evidence of calcification around the ulna and radius; Leathery substance growing on ornaments; Evidence of other organic matter growing on SCP-XXXX. Has since undergone chemical cleansing of these growths.

It is aware of the closed-circuit camera installed in its cell, and often attempts to converse with it. Its voice resembles a simulated baritone voice with a british accent. See
In terms of physical strength, SCP-XXXX has been observed to destroy wood, plastic and metal within similar timespans. In its un-augmented state(from here on out labeled as its ‘native’ state), its strength is comparable to roughly 2.3 horsepower. This increases at an unknown rate depending on what materials SCP-XXXX has processed and how much it has consumed.
When given any form of organic material, SCP-XXXX will remove its wooden head-cover and proceed to consume the material rapidly, vocalizing enjoyment for whatever he has eaten.

After recovery, SCP-XXXX has retained no memory of how it has been contained, nor the events beforehand.

Addendum XXXX-03: Transcript of an interview with SCP-XXXX following Procedure [REDACTED]
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Dr. ███
<Begin Log, 09:30 AM>
SCP-XXXX: Good morning, Doctor.
Dr. ███: I would like to speak about what has transpired two days ago.
SCP-XXXX: What has happened yesterday?
Dr. ███: You consumed a whole sheep and proceeded to grow flesh and bone.
SCP-XXXX: What?
Dr. ███: I would rather not repeat myself. Do you remember this?
SCP-XXXX: N— No? I… would never do that. (Increased clicking noises are heard from SCP-XXXX’s part of the cell. Addendum: This appears to be a sign of nervosity.)
Dr. ███: We have video evidence.
(SCP-XXXX’s head lowers. The gear-clicking ceases.)
Dr. ███: So you have no recollection of what transpired?
SCP-XXXX: No. (Pause; Next statement incoherent)
Dr. ███: —Could you repeat that, please?
SCP-XXXX: (Repeat of the statement.)
Dr. ███: I think we are done here for now.
SCP-XXXX: Goodbye, Doctor.
