In memory of Dr. ██████ - A true foundation hero

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Neutralised

Special Containment Procedures: N/A

Description: Document SCP-XXXX-1 was an anonymous unsigned letter delivered to Site-██ on ██/██/1968. Subsequent DNA analysis showed that the author of SCP-XXXX-1 was former foundation researcher Dr. ██████, who was relieved of his position at Site-██ on ██/██/1968 due to declining mental health.

The contents of document SCP-XXXX-1 hypothesised the existence of a cognitohazard of unknown origin within the foundation database. Research undertaken upon the arrival of SCP-XXXX-1 supported the hypothesis, and documents containing SCP-XXXX were destroyed and recreated without SCP-XXXX.

SCP-XXXX was a cognitohazard contained within no less than ██ documents throughout the foundation database at the time. SCP-XXXX was known to cause the rapid development of neurological diseases such as Dementia, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's. It is now known that Dr. ██████'s declining mental health was caused by his exposure to SCP-XXXX. Due to document SCP-XXXX-1, only █ staff members were exposed to SCP-XXXX, including Dr. ██████.

Dr. ██████ is a true foundation hero.

It's been sitting on my shoulder for quite some time now, but I don't know when I was exposed. it was in SCP-███. It was sitting there, waiting for me.

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: The foundation database is to be continuously monitored for references to Dr. ██████ and active instances of SCP-XXXX which are to be removed promptly. Only the main article pertaining to SCP-XXXX is to remain active for the purpose of maintaining the illusion created by SCP-XXXX's cognitohazardous properties and dispelling the idea of contrary beliefs.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a cognitohazard created and implanted in the foundation database by former foundation researcher Dr. ██████. It is believed that SCP-XXXX was created as an act of revenge after Dr. ██████'s firing due to insubordination on ██/██/1968.

SCP-XXXX was believed to only exist within the database, but is now known to act as an 'urban legend' among foundation personnel, spreading via word of mouth among other means. SCP-XXXX causes the belief that Dr. ██████ was the primary victim of SCP-XXXX and subsequently the first to alert the foundation to the nature of the cognitohazard, becoming a 'true foundation hero'.

Any compelling information presented to those affected by SCP-XXXX that is contrary to the beliefs implanted by SCP-XXXX can cause the effected to develop symptoms similar to that of progressive neurological illnesses, despite displaying normal brain activity under examination. These symptoms progress for between █ and ██ months, at which point brain-death occurs.

It is believed that as of ██/██/1998 approximately 97% of foundation personnel with access to the foundation database have been exposed to SCP-XXXX. It is for this reason that the true nature of SCP-XXXX is concealed.

Now you have viewed this document, it is imperative that this information does not spread. It is your duty to ensure the continuation of the foundation, the lives of your co-workers, and the safety of us all.

Secure. Contain. Protect.
