Object Class: Uncontainable

Description: SCP-XXXX does not exist, at least not as described in its file. SCP-████ is, or rather was, SCP-XXXX after we 'contained' it. We used to think that SCP-XXXX was a door that superposed whoever entered it with other realities. It was believed that said individual would remain in this state until someone read a recorded log of their experiences within SCP-XXXX. This resulted in an event referred to as an "Open Box Event".

An Open Box Event is characterized as a change in our reality that results from someone reading the SCP-XXXX file. We only know that this happens due to very short periods of a universal drop in hume levels that occur while reading the SCP-XXXX file. The only recorded Open Box Event is the SCP-XXXX file. We don't know how we obtained SCP-XXXX, nor its file.

A list of theoretically possible Open Box Events that would result in major changes can be seen in Addendum 1.

Due to the risk of some of these Open Box Events, we decided to make a deal with SCP-XXXX. This deal managed to neutralize SCP-XXXX by reducing the amount of possible Open Box Events to those seen in Addendum 2.

However, by removing the other possible Open Box Events we broke the chains that contained SCP-████. SCP-████ is an entity that can control which state a superposed particle collapses into, effectively making it a reality shaper.

The difference between reality benders and a reality shaper is as follows:
The reality before a reality bender changes something still exists, it just branches off into a different reality.
The reality before a reality shaper changes something ceases to exist. It instead has always been the reality created by a reality shaper. Due to this, our reality conforms to their anomalous property, effectively making them un-anomalous.

SCP-████ used to be contained by SCP-XXXX. SCP-████ was given an endless amount of realities to play in. We destroyed these realities, not wanting them to mess with ours. As a result we turned our reality into SCP-████'s playground.

Addendum 1

Below is a list of Open Box Events that were theoretically possible before the deal was made.

+ Possible Open Box Events

• 3,512 unique instances of a "Broken Masquerade Event"
  • 1,201 of which resulting in an XK-Class End-of-the-World Scenario
  • 470 of which resulting in an LK-Class Species Transmutation Scenario
  • 73 of which resulting in an SK-Class Domination Shift Scenario
• 12,760 unique instances of an XK-Class End-of-the-World Scenario
• 835 unique instances of an LK-Class Species Transmutation Scenario
• 7,568 unique instances of a CK-Class Restructuring Scenario
  • 2,509 of which resulting in a "Broken Masquerade Event"
  • 3,152 of which resulting in an LK-Class Species Transmutation Scenario
  • 256 of which resulting in an XK-Class End-of-the-World Scenario
• 580 unique instances of an EK-Class End-of-Human-Consciousness Scenario
• 381 unique instances of an SK-Class Dominance Shift Scenario

• 3,081 unique "safe" or relatively similar instances to our current reality

• 17,569 known possible events with an unknown outcome

Note: of these 46,286 Open Box Events, 25,636 (or roughly 55.39%) of said events result in an unfavorable outcome, 17,569 (or roughly 37.96%) of said events result in an unknown outcome, and only 3,081 (or roughly 6.66%) of said events result in a favorable outcome.

Unfavorable Outcome |███████████ (55.39%)
Unknown Outcome |███████ (37.96%)
Favorable Outcome |█ (6.66%)

Addendum 2

Below is a list of Open Box Events that are possible after the deal was made.

+ Possible Open Box Events

• 7 instances resulting in the death or disappearance of a D-Class
• 3 instances resulting in the deaths of multiple Foundation personnel
