The Black Light
SCP - 4092
Object Class - safe

Special containment procedures - SCP-4092 is to be given to all foundation personnel when doing tests with SCP-096 and installed in the ceiling of SCP-096’s cell. Other instances of SCP-4092 are to be kept in the armory or in wooden boxes kept in containment cells. The cells are to remain unlocked along with the wooden boxes in case of a breach or emergency.

Description - SCP-4092 appears to be a standard black light; however, it will cause darkness where it is “shined.” The darkness will override all light that it is put on like a shadow. SCP-4092 is also powerful enough to hide SCP-096’s face. SCP-096 will not enter an enraged state if looked at when SCP-4092 is shone on it, making it effective when containing SCP-096. If something moves in front of SCP-4092, light is not created, but the level of darkness doesn’t seem to change. SCP-4092 doesn’t have a logo or company name on it, even though it is shipped to the foundation. When disassembled, the parts of SCP-4092 don’t seem to be anomalous, and when put into other devices it will act as a normal black light. When parts are replaced with other parts from black lights, lightbulbs, electronics, or other instances of SCP-4092, it will remain anomalous. Every month, 50-70 instances are shipped to the foundation, but will be lower then stop when all level 2 staff and up have one and there are 30 extras. If more than 25 break, are lost, or die then the shipments will resume to accommodate for the lost instances. Instances of SCP-4092 have a limited battery life, but changing the batteries causes SCP-4092 to act non-anomalous.
