Item #: SCP-1835

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-1835-1 are to be kept in a padlocked steel container in designated Storage Room 78-B. Storage Room 78-B requires level 3 clearance to access. SCP-1837-1 is to remain in Storage Room 78-B. Two guards must be patrolling Storage Room 78-B at all times. Anybody who has activated SCP-1835 must be subject to Class-C Amnestics.

Description: SCP-1835-1 is a purple box with 'Dr Wonderentertainment's zeppelins- educational action for your children to re-enact the heroic struggles of the Rupertian people facing their Alarian aggressors! (Recommended for those aged 6-14)' printed on the front with an orange font.

The box comes sealed with two small patches of tape on the bottom of the front, which when the tape is cut and the front flap is lifted up, reveals a small model of a 19th century zeppelin measuring 10x7x5cm, referred to as SCP-1835-2. Whenever a child in the suggested age group handles SCP-1835-2 it suddenly inflates to a full size 19th century military zeppelin, fully equipped with functioning weaponry. After this event occurs, the child becomes familiar with the events of the great Rupertian Battle of 1899. The child then possesses the knowledge needed to control SCP-1835-2. SCP-1835 has a cognitive effect, which causes the brain to mis-intercept light waves, causing everybody within one kilometer to see the soldiers of the army of Rupertia. According to a child affected by SCP-1835, this is a re-inaction of the Great Battle of 1899, where Rupertian soldiers fought the Alarians. It is thought that Rupertia and Alaria are actually alternate universe versions of Austria and Prussia. The weapons controlled by the child can cause serious damage to the surroundings. If more than one child activates SCP-1835, it causes the children to take sides as either Alaria or Rupertia. The soldiers do not cause real-world damage, as they are entirely a cognitive illusion.
