SCP-XXXX

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is kept inside of a standard containment cell fitted with thermal lights that activate and deactivate on a timer, consistent with the rotation of the sun. Only level 4 or higher personnel are allowed to enter the cell.

Once daily at 13:50:00, a microscopic drone is sent to SCP-XXXX to retrieve the sample of SCP-XXXX-7 inside the farmhouse. It is equipped with an air coolant spray to hasten the solidification of the SCP-XXXX-7 sample. The drone's flight path is predetermined, but in the event that it malfunctions, a replacement must be made and active within three days of the removal of the previous drone.

Description: SCP-XXXX refers to a miniature1 cloud, visually similar to that of the stratocumulus variety. SCP-XXXX has a substantially higher density than a non-anomalous cloud, such that it can be interacted with as if it were solid. Despite this, SCP-XXXX does not adhere to gravity, staying motionless in the air unless acted on by an outside force. On the surface of SCP-XXXX is a farmhouse and barn, which are the residences of SCP-XXXX-1, and SCP-XXXX-2 through SCP-XXXX-6, respectively.

SCP-XXXX-1 is a humanoid entity2 residing on SCP-XXXX. When active, SCP-XXXX-1 follows a schedule of daily tasks involving maintenance of SCP-XXXX, as well as caring for SCP-XXXX-2 through SCP-XXXX-6. For the full schedule, see Addendum XXXX-01.

SCP-XXXX-2 through SCP-XXXX-6 are five miniature farm animals that live inside of the barn on SCP-XXXX. The animals have similar properties, notably that they do not require the apparent intake of any nutrients, and each produce a sample of pure elemental metal by unknown means.

  • SCP-XXXX-2 is a bright orange goose that produces eggs made of solid gold.
  • SCP-XXXX-3 is a scarlet hen that produces eggs made of solid copper.
  • SCP-XXXX-4 is a deep blue cow that produces mercury from its utters when milked.
  • SCP-XXXX-5 is a teal pig that excretes lead dust.
  • SCP-XXXX-6 is a yellow goat that produces molten silver from its teats when milked.

SCP-XXXX-7 is a pure elemental metal produced by SCP-XXXX-1 in liquid form. It does not fall in line with any existing element of the periodic table, and from extensive testing, appears to have an atomic number of 166. SCP-XXXX-7 is solid at room temperature, and has a melting point of 400°C. SCP-XXXX-7 is ferromagnetic, and emits a magnetic pull roughly 1120% the strength of iron or cobalt. Despite this, it does not interfere with electronics and, in fact, is also a versatile conductor of electricity. Research into possible use for foundation technology is currently under review.

Addendum XXXX-01:

An exact schedule of SCP-XXXX-1's daily routine has been determined. Through unknown means, SCP-XXXX-1 has an acute sense of how long these activities take to the second.
