Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-XXXX possessed by the Foundation are to be stored within a secure containment locker within Site-77.
SCP-XXXX-1 instances are to be contained separately, each within a cell sufficiently large to contain a bovine. Instances are to be supplied with grass or hay, and are to be examined by a technology specialist weekly.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a collection of small black pills, which each have the word ‘dado’ inscribed upon them. When ingested by a human or other animal, it displays no anomalous properties. However, when the contents of the pill enter any port on any piece of technology which requires charging, they begin to present anomalous properties:
Over a short amount of time, the device begins to grow additional features. Firstly, this is confined to hair and horns, but it concludes with the entirety of a bull (male Bos Taurus) emerging from the piece of technology. The anomaly’s body and legs are identical to a regular specimen, however its eyes or the upper half of its skull are not present, having been replaced with the technology that the entity originated from.
The entities formed by this process, referred to as SCP-XXXX-1, are generally docile. However, they display extreme hostility towards any item which is red. Exposure to the colour red will cause the anomaly to rapidly move to the object, at speeds expected of a bull of similar size, and attempt to destroy it. This can often lead to injury or expiration of the instance, as if the technology they transformed from becomes damaged beyond usability, all life processes of the SCP-XXXX-1 instance cease instantly.
The device which created the SCP-XXXX-1 instance remains fully functional, albeit with all audio replaced by bovine vocalisations and now deriving power from consumption of grass instead of electric power outlets. In addition, it is believed to also act as the eyes of the entity if a screen is present. Instances which developed from a device that did not possess a screen are believed to be completely blind. Therefore, sedation of the entity allows the technology to be accessed easily. However, separation of the device from the rest of the instance has proven impossible, as attempts have always resulted in non-functioning devices and fully neutralized SCP-XXXX-1 instances.
Addendum XXXX-1: Discovery
SCP-XXXX was discovered when a member of Foundation personnel implemented within a police department in ████████, Wales received an emergency call regarding ‘cyborg cows’ in their house. The following investigation led to the Foundation containing ninety-eight SCP-XXXX pills and two SCP-XXXX-1 instances, which had developed from an Alienware laptop and a Samsung Galaxy Note 6 mobile phone. All members of public involved in the incident escaped unharmed, and were amnesticized.
Analysis of the files within the phone revealed that there was nothing related to the anomaly stored within the phone, however the laptop contained an internet messaging client with messages to and from ‘dado’, a Person of Interest to the Foundation. A copy of the messages are displayed below:

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be contained within a standard Humanoid Containment Chamber in Site-19. Any vocalisations from the anomaly are to be recorded, transcribed and forwarded to a member of the Overseer Council.
If SCP-XXXX begins to display signs of suicidal tendencies, it is to be placed under constant surveillance by at least two armed guards until SCP-XXXX has refrained from mentioning anything related to its mortality, life or death for a period of time in excess of seven days.
While SCP-XXXX is using its anomaly, contact should not be made with it. This rule extends to when the entity is on suicide watch, due to the fact that it cannot control its actions while the anomaly is active.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a male human of Arabic descent, who displays a limited ability to predict the future. When SCP-XXXX begins to view the future, it will become seated with its legs crossed. This is to be referred to as the entity’s active phase.
SCP-XXXX cannot control the frequency or duration of its anomaly; it becomes active at varying times. The duration between active phases varies from less than one hour to more than six weeks. Most active phases last for approximately fifteen minutes, however a small minority continue for up to forty minutes. While SCP-XXXX is unconscious, either through natural sleep or sedative drugs, it cannot enter an active phase.
Directly following an active phase, SCP-XXXX will often become distressed. This is more probable if it believes it has observed an event it believes to have negative consequences. In several cases, the events viewed by SCP-XXXX have led to extended periods of suicidal ideation or, in three cases, attempts at self-termination.
SCP-XXXX can only observe future events which fit in two specific criteria:
- The event must directly affect SCP-XXXX or other humans that SCP-XXXX is emotionally attached to.
- All events must focus on an object or entity which SCP-XXXX is aware of the existence of.
All attempts to influence the outcome of an event observed by SCP-XXXX have proved to be futile. However, due to the very specific focuses of SCP-XXXX’s visions (on itself or a small number of individuals), it is often possible to alter security measures to reduce the severity of events predicted by the anomaly. After extensive conditioning and indoctrination by several Foundation psychologists, SCP-XXXX now believes it has an emotional attachment to several senior members of Foundation personnel and will often predict containment breaches by various anomalies contained within Site-19. For this reason, SCP-XXXX was reclassified as Thaumiel on 23/07/14.
Addendum XXXX/A: Abridged ‘Active Phase’ Log
| Prediction |
Actual Event |
| SCP-XXXX said that it believed that it would be within the hospital bay of Site-19 within a week. It refused to cooperate with personnel and did not explain why it would be hospitalized. |
SCP-XXXX contracted bacterial pneumonia five days after the prediction. The infection was severe enough to require temporary transfer to the medical bay of Site-19, where the entity remained for three days until the infection had subsided. |
| SCP-XXXX returned from its active phase extremely distressed. Following sedation and communication with an on-site psychologist, it revealed that the vision had displayed his mother being involved in a fatal car accident. This active phase resulted in SCP-XXXX being placed on suicide watch for five weeks. |
On 14/11/13, an elderly woman was struck and killed by a moving car in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The woman’s physical features were similar to what SCP-XXXX had previously described as his mother. |
| SCP-XXXX claimed that Dr. Greggs, the director of Site-19, was at risk of a premature death. SCP-XXXX was unable to explain further even when treated with Foundation-made drugs to induce forced telling of the truth, which led the Foundation to believe that an anomaly unknown to SCP-XXXX may cause the death. The Overseer Council unanimously voted to refrain from telling Dr. Greggs about SCP-XXXX’s prediction. |
During a minor containment breach four weeks after the active phase, Site Director Greggs was attacked by an unknown humanoid anomaly. Despite recieving immediate medical care, Dr. Greggs entered a vegetative state. Life support was withdrawn two weeks after the event. Due to the past knowledge of this event, a new site director had already been chosen. Therefore, the length of the period of instability was drastically reduced. |
| SCP-XXXX had an abnormally long active phase, with a duration of forty-seven minutes. SCP-XXXX exited the active phase displaying extreme amounts of distress. After several days of counselling with three different psychologists, SCP-XXXX revealed the event which led to the distress. In the anomaly’s exact words, it said: “Everything was burning. I was burning. Everyone I know and love was burning and the flames didn’t stop. The flames will never stop.” It is prohibited to refer to this prediction when near SCP-XXXX, as any mention of it can cause the entity to become extremely distressed. |
No event which could relate to this prediction has occurred, however it cannot be ruled out that this may be an event from further in the future, as every other prediction by SCP-XXXX has happened. |
Addendum XXXX/B: Thaumiel Classification Log
Due to the seemingly perfect accuracy of SCP-XXXX predictions of the future, it was hypothesised that it could be used to predict events such as containment breaches in important Foundation sites. For this to be possible, it was discovered that SCP-XXXX would have to be made to believe that it was emotionally close to senior members of Foundation personnel. The events which led to this are displayed below:
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Dr. Kosinski, a Foundation psychologist.
Foreword: This interview was intended to create an outline for who SCP-XXXX feels a close emotional bond to and the reasons behind the attachments.
<Begin Log>
Dr. Kosinski: Greetings, SCP-XXXX. Today, I am going to ask you some questions. Will you answer truthfully?
SCP-XXXX: Depends what you ask.
Dr. Kosinski: Who in the world would you say that you have a close emotional attachment to? In essence, who do you love?
SCP-XXXX: Hmm… Well, there’s Mama and Papa and my sister. They’re part of my family so I have to love those.
Dr. Kosinski: Okay. Is there anyone you are not related to who you feel close to emotionally? And if so, why do you feel that way?
SCP-XXXX: I guess there’s a couple of my friends. Before you brought me here, they were the only people who helped me when I was going through hard times. And I think I have to feel close to them for doing that. And also, before we split up, there was my girlfriend. She would listen to what I said and… (SCP-XXXX begins to cry) and she would talk to me as if I mattered.
Dr. Kosinski: Thank you for your time. I think that’s enough for today.
<End Log>
Closing Statement: It is believed that SCP-XXXX feels close to people who have supported it through hardships. Research is ongoing into ways that this can be exploited.
Conditioning Attempts:
Attempt 1
Procedure: Use the Chaos Insurgency to feign an assault on SCP-XXXX. When the assault has concluded, O5-1, O5-2 and Site Director Greggs are to comfort SCP-XXXX in an attempt to create an emotional bond with the subject.
Results: The assault was successful; SCP-XXXX was left with a fractured nose and several bruises. The counselling was successful in creating an attachment and SCP-XXXX had visions involving each of the members of personnel between three and eleven days after the attempt.
Attempt 2
Procedure: Identical to Attempt 1. However, the members of personnel sent to comfort SCP-XXXX are to be O5-3, O5-4 and O5-5
Results: The assault was successfully, as was the formation of the emotional bond. It must be noted that SCP-XXXX displayed less stress when assaulted than in the previous attempt.
Attempt 3
Procedure: Identical to Attempts 1 and 2. However, O5-6, O5-7 and O5-8 are to comfort SCP-XXXX instead of O5-1 or O5-2.
Results: While the assault was carried out successfully, SCP-XXXX displayed drastically less stress than in the previous test. It was also unwilling to talk to the Overseers, claiming that this event had happened too much to care any more. No emotional attachment was formed.
Following the events of Attempt 3, it was discovered that a different method of causing stress or a period of hardship would be required. Due to the apparent desensitisation of the subject, it was concluded that a more serious event would have to be suffered by the subject to cause sufficient attachment.
Attempt 4
