SCP-xxxx at initial point of discovery
Item #: SCP-xxxx
Object Class: Thaumiel
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-xxxx is to be kept in a standard concrete cell including a single skylight or window with access to sunlight. No ventilation systems are to be included within SCP-xxxx's cell. SCP-xxxx is to be fed one live D-class personnel or live animal with similar mass to a human, bi-weekly. Due to the fact that SCP-xxxx can be an extremely valuable asset to us, it is to be contained within site-██, rather than it's initial site, site-103. SCP-xxxx's containment area should be examined once daily for cracks or any other blemishes that could lead to gases exiting the cell. Personnel examining the cell are required to be equipped with gas masks and are advised not to get within a 5-foot range of SCP-xxxx. In the event that blemishes are found, any non-level 3 or higher research personnel with gas masks are to vacate the area and SCP-xxxx is to be immediately moved to a temporary airtight containment area until repairs are made to its previous cell.
Description: SCP-xxxx is an extremely well evolved carnivorous, parasitic, flowering plant with a similar appearance to that of species "Lilium Orientalis". After a recent feeding, SCP-xxxx's petals will vary from a scarlet to a pink. In the event that SCP-xxxx has not been fed in some time, its petals will begin to fade to a dull white. At the point that SCP-xxxx's petals show no color other than white it should be assumed malnourished. What the foundation believes to be the only currently living instance of SCP-xxxx was found outside of the house of ███████ ██████████ in ████████ █████████, Wisconsin. Any other instances of SCP-xxxx should be contained immediately. The current condition of the anomalous flower's previous owner is unknown and has been assumed either neutralized by the SCP or fled the scene long before the foundation's staff had arrived. SCP-xxxx was found in an unpainted clay pot, presumably starving, and attempted to attack one of the research personnel at first contact, but was quickly placed in a small portable metal box without further incident. After retrieval SCP-xxxx was initially placed in site-103.
SCP-xxxx proves to be extremely compliant with questioning and shows no desire to escape the foundation, so long as it is met with a consistent supply of nourishment. When any non-plant organic lifeform enters SCP-xxxx's cell SCP-xxxx begins to emit a plethora of microscopic spores from the center of its petals. While inhaling these spores, a large portion of the nervous system is shut down, and the inhaler can no longer feel any form of pain. These spores also cause a vast array of visual and auditory hallucinogenic effects. Inhalers of the spores can still communicate with personnel and report seeing friends or family members in need of assistance or even claim to hear their names being called from off in the distance. Many of the subjects also seem to believe they aren't in the foundation, but rather much more comforting complexes, with most imagining that they are within the safe confines of their own household. There have been no recorded cases of any lifeforms being able to resist the hallucinations of SCP-xxxx, and all approach it. When SCP-xxxx's prey is near, they gently remove SCP-xxxx from its clay pot and place it near the top of their body, usually the head or shoulders. If the organism does not have the ability to place SCP-xxxx towards the top of its body, SCP-xxxx's roots slowly crawl around the organism as the anomalous flower pulls itself onto them. SCP-xxxx's root system then shows extremely rapid growth as roots begin to ensnare, as well as burrow into the skin of the preys limbs and body. During this process, SCP-xxxx is still emitting spores and its prey shows no sign of distress. Most prey of SCP-xxxx die while being ensnared, but a fraction lives until SCP-xxxx completely tangles around and restrains them. SCP-xxxx's roots have a ludicrous amount of strength, having been able to suppress an adult gorilla, "Homininae", without effort, but can be cut through by an external force. Research personnel are still searching for a material that SCP-xxxx's roots can't penetrate.
Once control over the victim has been fully established, whether they're deceased or living, SCP-xxxx stops emitting spores and is then able to communicate through the vocal systems of its new host. SCP-xxxx gains all knowledge previously held by its host. Due to this, as well as the fact that SCP-xxxx's roots can go through all known materials, it has been debated as to whether or not the foundation should introduce SCP-xxxx to extremely hazardous SCP's in attempt to neutralize and or gain valuable information from them. As of ██-█-████ this proposal has been denied by Dr. Lleven as "SCP-xxxx is the key to potentially limitless information, and we can't risk losing it".
14 days after containment: Document#xxxx-Log 03: Recorded conversation between SCP-xxxx and Dr. Lleven
Dr. Lleven: (Shortly after witnessing death of SCP-xxxx's host) Can you hear me?
SCP-xxxx: Yes, hello.
Dr.: Good morning. I have a few questions to ask you today, if you don't mind.
SCP-xxxx: Go ahead.
Dr.: How do you feel about your capture since last week?
SCP-xxxx: Full.
Dr.: Interesting. Then what do you think of the foundation?
SCP-xxxx: Your hospitality is honestly quite surprising.
Dr.: Hospitality?
SCP-xxxx: Your generousness, I receive an endless supply of nourishment and in return all I must do is help fulfill your curiosities.
Dr.: I suppose. Lets move on. Do you know of any other SCP's the foundation has contained?
SCP-xxxx: Clearly. It was you yourself who told me I was the key to-
Dr.: (Cuts SCP-xxxx off) I'm sorry to interrupt but I have matters to attend to. We will continue this later.
SCP-xxxx Of course, doctor.
Dr.: [DATA EXPUNGED]
