Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be held at Site 46 in a 5x6x10 meter box constructed of pure titanium plating. The containment unit is to be located at least 3 km underground, accessible by a single elevator, with a standard observation room located at least 200 meters away.
All access to and direct observation of SCP-XXXX is strictly forbidden.
SCP-XXXX-1 instances are to be contained in standard Foundation Mental Rehabilitation Chambers until progression to SCP-XXXX-2. All SCP-XXXX-2 instances are to be incinerated without delay.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a sentient, sapient mass of purple tentacles arranged into a roughly humanoid shape measuring approximately 8 meters tall, and weighing an estimated 145 kg. It's 'head' consists of a single flat, featureless tentacle attached to the top of the central mass, and it possesses two 'legs' consisting of bundles of three tentacles each, used for locomotion, and two 'arms', consisting of bundles of six tentacles, used for fine manipulation and utilizing its abilities.
Based on unmanned MRI scans, SCP-XXXX possesses a single, large brain within its central mass, approximately ██ times larger than a normal human brain, but otherwise similar in appearance and composition.
SCP-XXXX possesses extremely powerful mental abilities, including, but not limited to, telepathy, telekinesis, minor reality bending and levitation. These abilities are generated by its brain and released via its tentacles. Prior to containment, it was observed leveling a city block in ██████, █████████, in less than █ seconds of sustained usage of its powers.
While SCP-XXXX is extremely hostil, appears to be in a constant state of extreme pain and agitation, and invariable attacks anyone who comes near. The only successful sample of SCP-XXXX's flesh was taken while it was being actively suppressed by █ trained reality benders released from containment specifically for the purpose, who all subsequently became SCP-XXXX-1 instances and perished.
When a human comes within 40 meters of SCP-XXXX, they automatically become SCP-XXXX-1 instances. SCP-XXXX-1 display mental abilities similar to SCP-XXXX, albeit much weaker, and are subject to the associated degenerative qualities, which manifest in three stages:
- Stage One: Immediately after exposure to SCP-XXXX. Subject's newfound mental abilities allow it to inadvertently come in direct mental contact with SCP-XXXX central brain. In 98% of cases, this leads to the subject going insane, attempting to come in physical contact with SCP-XXXX and commiting suicide within 5 minutes. Regardless of if the subject achieved physical contact, SCP-XXXX will subsequently gather up the subject's cadaver and absorb it into its mass via an unknown process.
- Stage Two: In the event that someone manages to escape the effects of Stage One, they immediately progress to Stage Two. In Stage Two, the subject retains the mental abilities and quickly learns to fully control them. Subjects have reported a compulsion to use their abilities whenever possible, which seems to feed towards the advancement to Stage Three.
- Stage Three: Stage Three occurs as little as two weeks after Stage Two, but can be delayed, potentially forever, via the subject refraining from using its abilities. Upon entering Stage Three, the subject's mental condition will begin to rapidly deteriorate, and their body will begin to physically change into SCP-XXXX tentacles via an unknown process. Subject will attempt to reunite with SCP-XXXX and, if successful, will be absorbed into its mass, similar to Stage One. Subjects who fail to reunite with SCP-XXXX will eventually transform into a small cluster of 1-2 meter long tentacle, resembling a miniature version of SCP-XXXX. with the subjects original brain held intact within the tentacle. From this point on, they are designated SCP-XXXX-2 instances. During Stage Three, the SCP-XXXX-1 becomes 'contagious'. Any humans within 20 meters of the instance have an ██% chance of gaining mental powers and becoming a Stage Two SCP-XXXX-1 instance, as if they had been exposed to SCP-XXXX, without the associated risk of dying in Stage One.
SCP-XXXX-2 display significantly lowered intelligence than the original SCP-XXXX-1 instance, drastically weakened mental abilities and lowered locomotion, rendering them mostly helpless. DNA analysis of SCP-XXXX-2 show consistent matches to the original SCP-XXXX-1 instance.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: All manifestations of SCP-XXXX are to be logged by undercover Foundation personnel implanted in every known hospital in the continental United States. SCP-XXXX-1 instances and any other affected individuals are to be interviewed after the manifestation ends, and aerosolized Class A amnestics are to be administered to anyone who may have observed or been affected by SCP-XXXX.
Security footage containing SCP-XXXX must be seized by undercover Foundation personnel, deleted from any non-Foundation devices, and any non-Foundation personnel who viewed it must be administered Class A amnestics.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a large mass of grey flesh weighing approximately 90kg, somewhat resembling a bean bag chair in shape. It has two short, apparently vestigial arms with five-fingered hands which are usually clasped in front of it, a bulbous snout vaguely resembling that of an elephant seal, and two small, black eyes with no discernible sclerae or irises. It's skin in thick and leathery to the touch, and completely devoid of any hair.
SCP-XXXX regularly manifests within hospitals inside the continental United States, seated on a low two-person bench with an attached table, which varies in specific design to fit the current hospital. SCP-XXXX always manifests near individuals who are currently experiencing trauma or uncertainty related to a loved ones medical condition or procedure. Individuals targeted by SCP-XXXX are classified as SCP-XXXX-1 instances for the duration of the manifestation.
SCP-XXXX-1 instances, upon noticing SCP-XXXX, universally feel an urge to sit next to it in the provided seat. Doing so has an immediately calming effect on the individual, and, in 89% of cases, succeeds in helping them through the aforementioned trauma or uncertainty. SCP-XXXX will remain for as long as the individual needs, but will promptly vanish once the individual learns the outcome of their loved ones medical procedure, or the status of their condition.
SCP-XXXX appears to have a very mild memory-altering effect on SCP-XXXX-1 instances, resulting in them having trouble remembering its physical appearance or attributes when interviewed post-manifestation. This effect only extends to targeted SCP-XXXX-1 instances, and all other observers of the entity can describe it in perfect detail post-manifestation.
SCP-XXXX-1 instances are reluctant to leave SCP-XXXX's bench, due to the calming affect, but can be persuaded off it in some situations, or removed by force. Doing so immediately removes the calming effect and returns the individual to their state prior to SCP-XXXX's manifestation.
As many as thirteen concurrent manifestations of SCP-XXXX have been reported, indicating that there are either multiple instances of the entity, or it possesses reality-bending powers that allow it to be in multiple places at once. Neither of these theories have been proven.
Due to the generally brief nature of SCP-XXXX manifestations, very little research can be conducted on it. The following things have been ascertained by interviews with SCP-XXXX-1 instances and implanted Foundation personnel:
- It doesn't appear to eat, drink, breath or produce waste.
- It does have a pulse, regularly measured to be within normal expectations for an adult human.
- It does have a mouth, but hasn't yet spoken or made any vocalizations.
- SCP-XXXX-1 instances consistently describe the entity as 'kind, old, and understanding.' alongside other positive statements, often embellished with adjectives such as 'infinitely' and 'eternally,
- There have been unverified reports of SCP-XXXX-1 instances being healed of minor cuts, bruises and illness, much faster than normal while sitting with SCP-XXXX.
- SCP-XXXX's bench is often described as 'amazingly comfortable', despite the fact that it's often made of wood, metal or plastic.
- It does show an interest in those around it, often passively gazing around the room, but will usually direct its attention towards the current SCP-XXXX-1 instance.
- Non-SCP-XXXX-1 civilians often notice and comment on its presence, but almost universally react with mild interest and approval, rather than fear, disgust or violence.
Addendum XXXX-1:
Upon SCP-XXXX's initial discovery and classification on ██/██/19██, the following note was taped to its chest area.
I wait.
With those.
Who need.
Someone to.
Wait with.
-ZHDUN
Addendum XXXX-2:
Below is an interview log with SCP-XXXX-1H. This log is considered representative of most other SCP-XXXX-1-related interview logs, as SCP-XXXX-1 almost always answer in the same way.
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX-1H.
Interviewer: Doctor Charleston, an undercover Foundation Agent at █████ Memorial Hospital in ██████, Ohio.
Foreword: Interview conducted immediately after SCP-XXXX's demanifestation. SCP-XXXX-1H had just been informed of his wife's successful surgery, triggering SCP-XXXX's demanifestation.
<Begin Log.>
Doctor Charleston: Hello, I'm Doctor Charleston.
SCP-XXXX-1H: Are you the one who operated on my wife?
Doctor Charleston: No, I'm not. That was Doctor █████████. I just have a few questions for you before we let you in to see your wife.
SCP-XXXX-1H: Alright.. Just make them quick, okay?
Doctor Charleston: Of course. First of all, what did you do while you were waiting?
SCP-XXXX-1H: Well, I spent a little while pacing around.. But I noticed this really.. comfortable bench just sitting on the wall beside me, so I sat there until the nurse came out.
Doctor Charleston: Was there anyone on the bench with you?
SCP-XXXX-1H: Yeah.. There was quite a pleasant fellow. Very kind and understanding. He was more than willing to just sit with me and comfort me..
Doctor Charleston: Could you describe his appearance?
SCP-XXXX-1H: He was kinda.. Gosh, I dunno.. I actually can't remember what he looked like. All I can remember is that he was very nice, and quite old.
Doctor Charleston: I see. That'll be all, then. Thank you for your time. Joycie here will take you to see your wife.
<End Log.>
Closing Statement: SCP-XXXX-1H was taken to see his wife, then Class-A amnesics were deployed to all affected individuals, excluding Doctor Charleston. Following this log, notes were made about possible memetic effects of SCP-XXXX.
Item #: SCP-3917
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3917 is to be kept in an open wooden container lined with soft foam, positioned at a 45° angle facing a clear window with a wide view of the natural outdoors. A selection of bird feeders are to be maintained outside the window. SCP-3917 is currently being contained in Site Overseer Garran's office at Site 24.
Description: SCP-3917 is a sentient handgun of unknown make and origin. It appears as a standard, albeit slightly larger than normal, handgun, painted bright purple, with a white and purple harlequin mask affixed to the right side. Through unknown means, the mask is fully animate and able to speak, and possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of firearms of both terrestrial and alien origin.
When fired, SCP-3917 emits short bursts of high-intensity energy that have been observed to penetrate though up to four inches of reinforced steel, up to three Kevlar ballistics vest arranged in a line, or six feet of solid ballistics gel. It does not appear to need ammo, but nevertheless, reloading SCP-3917 consistently dispenses up to twelve .44 caliber iron casings, based on how many shots were fired before reloading.
SCP-3917 has been quite willing to talk with researchers, but greatly prefers topics relating to firearms. It has repeatedly refused to reveal where it was made or how it came into existence. When asked about non-firearm related topics, it often becomes irritated or outright refuses to answer. It has expressed a strong desire to not be fired whenever possible, as doing so seems to cause it considerable pain. It cannot fire itself, and seems to even resent it's current body, implying it may be possible to transfer SCP-3917's consciousness to other firearms or objects. SCP-3917 declined to answer when asked about this.
SCP-3917 was recovered from the site of the murder of ████████ ███████ in ███ ████, Texas, by an undercover Foundation agent planted in the local law enforcement. It claims to have been used against its will in the murder, then discarded when the murder fled the scene.
After being brought into Foundation custody, SCP-3917 requested to be kept in 'a comfortable box with a view of the outdoors'. This request was granted after testing.
Addendum 3917-1:
After recovering, SCP-3917 was brought to Site 24 and Researcher Berna was assigned to determining the extent of its anomalous qualities. Below are her findings, as well as an interview log.
- SCP-3917 does not need any form of food, water or air.
- SCP-3917 has no central nervous system or organs, but can still see, smell, hear and talk through its mask, and feel through its entire handgun.
- SCP-3917 has 20/20 vision and perfect hearing.
- SCP-3917 produces a theoretically infinite amount of ammunition and associated casings. However, the casings automatically disintegrate soon after being discharged, preventing any exploitation of this property.
- SCP-3917 was originally quite poorly-disposed towards both Researcher Berna and later, Site Overseer Garran, but grew more amicable towards both of them through regular conversations.
- SCP-3917 dislikes being tested on, but was unable to resist any tests due to its complete immobility.
- SCP-3917 revealed key information on the function and origin of at least █ other firearm-related SCPs. A request was submitted to reclassify SCP-3917 to Thaumiel because of this. The request was denied, due to both SCP-3917 and Site Overseer Garran expressing that SCP-3917's knowledge was limited to firearms and firearms only, and as such was of limited usefulness.
Further testing on SCP-3917 has been suspended until further notice.
Interview Log 3917-1:
Interviewed: SCP-3917
Interviewer: Researcher Berna
Foreword: Conducted shortly after recovery of SCP-3917, before it was placed into containment in Site Overseer Garran's office.
Researcher Berna: Greetings, SCP-3917. I am Researcher Berna, and I'll be interviewing you today. I'll just be aski-
SCP-3917: Remington.
Researcher Berna: Pardon?
SCP-3917: My name's Remington. Not SCP-whatever-the-hell.
Researcher Berna: A-alright then. Remington it is. Would you mind telling me where you came from?
SCP-3917: Yes. I would mind.
Researcher Berna: Are you from Earth?
SCP-3917: I can't say.
Researcher Berna: Why not?
SCP-3917: Because my makers specifically prevented me from divulging any information on my origin. They would prefer to remain unknown here on Earth.
Researcher Berna: Alright.. Then how did you come to Earth?
SCP-3917: Can't say that either.
Researcher Berna: So, why Remington? That's a very much Earth-based company.
SCP-3917: My makers gave me that name to 'blend in better' on Earth. Apparently they were unaware that guns don't talk much around here.
Researcher Berna: So are there other sentient firearms like you?
SCP-3917: There's seven of us total. I think I'm the only one that got sent to Earth.
Researcher Berna: Why were you sent here?
SCP-3917: Hell if I know.
Researcher Berna: How long have you been on Earth?
SCP-3917: ..Six hundred and fifty-four years, seven months and eight days.
Researcher Berna: I believe that coincides directly with when firearms were first invented on Earth, correct?
SCP-3917: Yup.
Researcher Berna: Interesting. And you've been changing hands since then?
SCP-3917: Yea. I was found by some old Chinese bloke, then spent a few centuries travelling around Europe with a few different owners. Hernán Cortés 'imself brought me to the Americans, then promptly lost me in Mexico. I was found a couple centuries later and brought up to Texas right about when it became a state, from what I could glean, but I never got out of Texas before you guys found me.
Researcher Berna: You've displayed an encyclopedic knowledge of both terrestrial and alien firearms. Did your makers provide you with this knowledge?
SCP-3917: The alien stuff, yea. All the Earthly stuff I got just by being around a lot of other firearms for the last six and a half centuries.
Researcher Berna: What about the other firearm-related SCPs we have? Do you know anything about those?

Further testing on SCP-XXXX-2 has been banned by order of the Overseer Council.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Thaumiel
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX-1 is to be contained in a secure Foundation lockbox within the Site 87 Safe-Class Long-Term Storage vaults.
SCP-XXXX-2 is to be contained in the briefcase it was recovered in, a 36.775576 x 27.552356 x 11.567843 cm black steel briefcase that anomalously maintains an interior temperature of exactly 45.335563 degrees Centigrade. SCP-XXXX-2 is to be removed from containment only within a room that maintains a constant, exact temperature of 45.335563 degrees Centigrade.
Further testing and usage of SCP-XXXX-2 must be unanimously approved by all standing members of the Overseer Council. SCP-XXXX-2 is to be employed only as a means to prevent K-Class End-of-world scenarios, when all other methods have been exhausted. SCP-XXXX-2 may only be ingested by those with Level 4 Clearance or higher, who display complete and utter loyalty to the Foundation and its doctrines. Anyone under the effects of SCP-XXXX-2 is authorized to create a single batch of it following the recipe found on SCP-XXXX-1, in order to ensure the Foundation has a supply of SCP-XXXX-2 for future use.
Description: SCP-XXXX-1 is a sheet of standard A1 size white printer paper, showing signs of heavy wear and weathering, including torn edges, holes and yellow discoloration. Printed on it in 8pt Avenir typeface is a recipe that, when successfully completed, creates SCP-XXXX-2. SCP-XXXX-1 is anomalous only in the nonsensical actions, extremely precise quantities and ingredients called for, many of which are immeasurably precise using any currently available technology, or are simply unobtainable on Earth. SCP-XXXX-1 has only been completed by Foundation personnel once, detailed below.
Attempts at creating SCP-XXXX-2 from the recipe have almost all met with failure for a variety of reasons:
- Attempting to substitute a nearly-identical compound caused the mixture to evaporate instantaneously.
- Boiling the mixture at .0000001 degree above the called-for temperature resulted in a violent explosion and the death of the Junior Researcher attempting it.
- Boiling the mixture at the correct temperature, but for .0001 milliseconds too long resulted in the mixture anomalously freezing solid, then shattering.
- Introducing .000000012 milliliters less than the called-for amount of a compound created a small rift in reality, resulting the disappearance of the mixture and 76% of the biomass of the D-class personnel attempting the recipe.
- Stirring the mixture for .0000002 seconds too long caused it to anomalously levitate up to the ceiling of the laboratory, then vanish.
- Stirring the mixture with a stir-stick of the improper material dissolved the entire stir-stick and the arm of the D-class personnel attempting the recipe in less that one one millionth of a nanosecond.
SCP-XXXX-2 is the result of a successfully completely SCP-XXXX-1 recipe. To date, the recipe has not been completed, but a small vial of SCP-XXXX-2 was recovered along with SCP-XXXX-1 and an attached note, detailed below.
Testing on SCP-XXXX-2 in a strictly controlled environment, as described in the attached note, revealed a number of previously unknown and often chemically impossible compounds believe to be the source of SCP-XXXX-2's anomalous properties. To date, three of them have been isolated and recreated, but none have displayed any anomalous properties of their own.
Ingestion of 2.256476557 mL of SCP-XXXX-2, per the attached note, by a D-class personnel resulted in the subject gaining complete, unrestricted omnipotence and omniscience for exactly two (2) hours, after which the effects faded and the subject returned to normal. During this time, the subject was interviewed and revealed crucial information on the function and containment procedures of ███ other SCPs, displayed complete knowledge of ██ Thaumiel-class SCPs, pinpointed the locations of ██ previously unknown SCPs (all of which have been recovered and contained) and successfully completed a batch of SCP-XXXX-2, which was placed into containment with the original sample. Subject showed no changes in personality, and seemed to regard his newfound omnipotence with mild curiosity until it wore off, which prompted him to express mild disappointment. Subject was administered Class B amnestics after testing concluded.
Ingestion of any amount other than the precise, specified amount results in immediate, instantaneous necrosis of 100% of the subjects biomass. ██ D-class personnel died in this way before the proper amount was achieved.

Addendum XXXX-2:
Below is a copy of the note attached to SCP-XXXX-2 upon retrieval, contained in a plain letter envelope addressed to the Foundation as a whole.
To whom it may concern within the Foundation,
First of all, let me apologize for creating this mixture. It should not exist, and, indeed, can't exist in your reality. However, my superiors decreed that it should be introduced to your reality, in an effort to sow chaos among your citizens and potentially [REDACTED], (please refer to High Guild Order #554676-12), and I am contractually obliged to follow their orders.
Secondly, a brief description of this mixture. In my native realm, it is entirely unremarkable, sold nearly everywhere as a mild, legal narcotic, known as [REDACTED]. In your reality, based on our estimations, it will grant the imbiber nearly unlimited power over reality. While I'm not entirely sure of the differences between our realities that lead to this drastic shift in function, my superiors are very much aware of this difference, and it seems to be their sole reason for introducing [REDACTED] to your reality.
In an attempt to restrict the spread and usage of [REDACTED] in your reality, I have opted to defy my orders and deliver directly to the Foundation. I am confident you will be able to fully contain this, the only sample of [REDACTED], and prevent it from reaching the masses.
The attached recipe should be technically possible within your reality, but not at your current level of technology. Many of the ingredients are found exclusively in my home reality, and many of the steps require abilities you humans do not possess.
If you have any questions or complaints about the recipe or [REDACTED], please attempt to contact the High Guild via [DATA EXPUNGED]
Thank you, and good luck.
-[REDACTED], High Guild Emissary to Reality Z-4456.
