Drafting Stage: Brainstorming Stage: Archived Ideas:Item #: SCP-XXX
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX is to be kept in a standard humanoid containment cell with minor adjustments. Subject's fingers are to be secured with metallic finger cots, and to be connected with a taught carbon fiber cable to the ceiling of the containment cell. During transport of any kind, subject is to be sedated and have fingers placed in containers filled with ballistics gel.
SCP-XXX's containment cell is to be outfitted with video and audio capture capabilities that are
Description: SCP-XXX is able to substantially alter reality through the action of snapping its fingers. Due to this anomalous quality, as well as the circumstances surrounding SCP-XXX's containment, proper study and testing of SCP-XXX's anomalous quality is impossible without high risk of a containment breach. Description of the nuance of SCP-XXX's anomalous quality is based on field observation as well as testimony from SCP-XXX, which has proven consistent.
Item #: SCP-XXX
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX is to be kept in a standard anomalous object container. Any transport of SCP-XXX must be done with authorization and prior planning of the Head of Research for SCP-XXX. Standard procedure for emergency transport of SCP-XXX involves groups of three, with the one tasked with handling SCP-XXX being unarmed and monitored by the two other personnel.
Head of Research for SCP-XXX has been given authorization to utilize SCP-XXX to temporarily mitigate anomalous effects. Emergency usage of SCP-XXX combat anomalous effects that pose a substantial threat to personnel safety or containment of other anomalous objects is allowed without authorization pf Head of Research for SCP-XXX. Every event of usage of SCP-XXX will be thoroughly reviewed by Site Command and punishments, if applicable, will be dolled out within a time period of 7 days.
Description: SCP-XXX is a sword of uhhhhhh descent. The blade of the sword is highly reflective, despite the metals comprising it lacking such reflective quality. Any light that the blade reflects is shifting into white light, the process behind this is unknown. Raising the blade to an elevation of 190cm or higher will cause it to amplify the luminance value of any light it reflects through another unknown process. Despite its age, SCP-XXX shows minimal signs of damage or degradation.
SCP-XXX cannot be physically manipulated by anything other than the hands of a human being. Any attempts to transport SCP-XXX with machinery and vehicles will result in SCP-XXX seemingly increasing its weight by an immeasurable amount. Once a human holds the hilt of SCP-XXX, a variety of effects may occur. The most common effect is severe burning to the hand, although SCP-XXX shows no sign of a temperature increase. This burning effect can be stopped with a certain "conviction" that has yet to be properly described by SCP-XXX test subjects.
Those who do not receive burns from SCP-XXX immediately report their minds clearing of any "superfluous thoughts". This results in an increased drive to perform actions that are seen as "virtuous", although this effect seemingly does not override rational decision making. Those who are able to hold SCP-XXX without any harmful effects are seen to more frequently opine on what they believe will help humanity as a whole, and what they believe is harmful to humanity. Even if their opinions directly contradict their orders for the test, they will perform the test without much issue.
The blade of SCP-XXX is immune to both anomalous and thaumaturgical phenomena, as well as a seemingly random assortment of other "concepts". Any light reflected by the blade of SCP-XXX also carries this quality, albeit to a much more diluted degree. Light reflected by the blade of SCP-XXX is able to mitigate or temporarily remove the effects of anomalous or thaumaturgical phenomena, with outright nullification of said phenomena being much rarer. If light reflected by the blade of SCP-XXX is able to illuminate human skin, said human will begin to feel either relief or anxiety. Simply viewing the light reflected by SCP-XXX could carry this effect, although to a lesser degree.
If the blade of SCP-XXX cuts through the physical structure of anomalous/thaumaturgical phenomena, said phenomena will "destabilize", and begin to rapidly dissipate. Phenomena without a concrete physical structure cannot be destabilized by the blade of SCP-XXX, although the light reflected from SCP-XXX may still have an effect on it.
Along with anomalous and thaumaturgical phenomena, SCP-XXX also has an effect on a seemingly random assortment of other objects and concepts. Most of these miscellaneous objects/concepts appear to correlate with deviations from human social norms and human morality, although it is not yet understood how SCP-XXX is able to distinguish this. The most notable concepts that SCP-XXX has an effect on are those with ties to religious beliefs. SCP-XXX's effects on actions that are considered "sinful" by a majority of the Christian faith will mirror it's effects on anomalous and thaumaturgical phenomena.
The beliefs of a human holding SCP-XXX may also influence the objects/concepts that SCP-XXX may have an effect on. If a human holding SCP-XXX possesses a strong aversion or disgust towards a specific object or concept, it is more likely that SCP-XXX will have an effect on said object or concept. Opinions or views that are seen as "morally unjust" or "morally gray" have are much less likely to influence the effects of SCP-XXX.
maybe include a research abstract detailing how SCP-XXX works regarding morals and such from an Foundation scientist.

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX is to be kept in a standard human containment cell with minor adjustments. Subject's fingers are to be secured with metallic finger cots, and to be connected with a taught carbon fiber cable to the ceiling of the containment cell.
At all times, SCP-XXX is to have a device1 affixed to it's body that that is both
A) capable of swift incapacitation of a human
B) able to be precisely tracked from any distance
CADXXX is to be configured to incapacitate SCP-XXX for approximately 1 hour, and to be immediately activated upon a substantial change in coordinates.
In the event that SCP-XXX breaches containment, the following protocol is to be enacted.
1. Activate CADXXX and mobilize MTF Alpha-9 "Last Hope" to secure SCP-XXX.
If CADXXX fails to activate, Foundation security will attempt to locate SCP-XXX with an algorithm designed during the initial recovery of SCP-XXX. Once SCP-XXX's location has been stabilized, MTF Alpha-9 "Last Hope" will be mobilized to subject's location.
Rules of Engagement for Containing SCP-XXX are as follows:
- Engagement will only occur if within 10 meters of SCP-XXX, with SCP-XXX being unaware of the presence of MTF Alpha-9
- If SCP-XXX is unaware of MTF Alpha-9's presence, a fast-acting tranquilizer will be administered. If SCP-XXX attempts to cast a "wish", a short-distance electrical shock will be administered. Once incapacitated, MTF Alpha-9 will proceed to immobilize SCP-XXX's hands. SCP-XXX will be kept incapacitated during transport.
Due to the nature of SCP-XXX, the Rules of Engagement may change inconsistently during attempted recovery. The leader of MTF Alpha-9 retains full authority to change the Rules of Engagement on a case-by-case basis.
Due to the danger posed by SCP-XXX, as well as previous compliance from SCP-XXX, any attempted negotiations are to be taken at face value with utmost sincerity.
*NOTICE:* SCP-XXX is currently under lockdown containment. Access to SCP-XXX is restricted to only those with express permission from the SCP-XXX Research Coordinator. Any voided containment procedures will be found below this notice. - John Herschel - SCP-XXX Research Coordinator
Subject is to be fed three times a day, and may request the meals that are provided. Any non-standard requests made by SCP-XXX may be fulfilled by the active guard on duty at their own discretion, as long as they are strictly comfort-related. SCP-XXX's containment chamber is to be inspected bi-weekly.
Only those assigned to SCP-XXX, or with express permission from the Site Overseer, may visit and converse with SCP-XXX. Provided is a current list of personnel meeting the above-mentioned criteria.
| Personnel Name | Task | Clearance |
|---|---|---|
| John Herschel | SCP-XXX Research Coordinator | Level 4A |
| Victor Marshton | Containment Specialist | Level 4B |

Description: SCP-XXX is a Caucasian male measuring 1.8 meters in height. Due to it's anomalous property, subject's right hand shows signs of scarring.
SCP-XXX has the anomalous quality to have any immediate desire become a reality, prompted by a snap of the subject's fingers. These desires consistently appear to be a simple event or action. This observation is substantiated by SCP-XXX, who claims that a desire should be able to be concisely described as a sentence from a first-person perspective. If SCP-XXX's anomalous act is analogous to standard writing perspectives, it is assumed that the reliability of the act scales with semantic complexity.
SCP-XXX refers to these anomalous acts as "wishes". To remain consistent with the relevant interviews and testimony, any documentation relating to SCP-XXX will classify these anomalous acts as "wishes"
Shaky on the reasoning for the Foundation to call them "wishes"
SCP-XXX has the ability to choose which desire will become a reality, however, if SCP-XXX is distracted or unfocused, the anomalous action will become unreliable. SCP-XXX will often say the desired action right before snapping it's fingers to help with concentration.
A "wish" performed by SCP-XXX, like any physical process, requires energy to perform. The amount of energy required for each "wish" often appears to correlate with how much of reality is altered. A "wish" from SCP-XXX retrieves energy from an anomalously prompted fission of SCP-XXX's atoms. The only evidence of this process is apparent damage to SCP-XXX's arm after a particularly energy-heavy "wish". A "wish" from SCP-XXX also produces a 500 lumen flash of light from SCP-XXX's fingertips, but this appears to be unrelated to the energy harvesting process of the "wish". A "wish" performed by SCP-XXX will also produce a brief radiological signature, detectable by Foundation equipment.
Discovery: SCP-XXX was initially detected due to multiple radiological blips appearing on routine Foundation scans. In order to isolate SCP-XXX's location, the Foundation developed an algorithm to match radiological events with suspected anomalous activities. SCP-XXX's location was isolated to the New York metropolitan area.
SCP-XXX was attempting to conduct an investigation into unrelated anomalous events in the New York metropolitan area. SCP-XXX has refused to disclose the details of said investigation.
Initial retrieval was attempted by MTF Pi-1 "City Slickers". Initial retrieval was unsuccessful, due to lack of information regarding SCP-XXX, as well as SCP-XXX's anomalous trait. The failed retrieval showed evidence that SCP-XXX's anomalous trait is tied to his hands.
Successful retrieval was performed by MTF Pi-1 "City Slickers", under covert circumstances. A member of MTF Pi-1 was sent undercover to act as an informant for SCP-XXX's investigation. With the use of a tazer and traquilizer, the member of MTF Pi-1 was able to incapacitate SCP-XXX. SCP-XXX was then transported to Foundation custody.
Interviews and Testimonial:
Due to the nature of SCP-XXX, conclusive testing is unable to be performed consistently. Most information regarding SCP-XXX's anomalous effects is from field observation or testimony from SCP-XXX, and as such is inconsistent. SCP-XXX's containment chamber is wired for audio recording to facilitate further research. Listed below are interviews or brief audio recordings that have relevance to SCP-XXX's anomalous trait or Foundation objectives for SCP-XXX.

SCP-XXX: I'm not comfortable giving you guys my real name. I do have an alias, if that helps?
Dr. Celentano: What would that alias be?
SCP-XXX: "Wishmaster".
Dr. Celentano: Okay, Wishmaster, records indicate that you were performing some type of investigation in the New York area. What were you investigating?
SCP-XXX: I don't want to say.
Dr. Celentano: Why is that?
SCP-XXX: Because I know once I do, the higher-ups will start investigating it.
Dr. Celentano: Why are you adverse to the Foundation continuing your investigation?
SCP-XXX: 1. Its my investigation, and 2. I value the safety of your employees.
Dr. Celentano: I appreciate your concern, but I am pretty confident in the abilities of the Foundation to continue your investigation.
SCP-XXX: Well I'm not.
Dr. Celentano: Okay, are you certain you don't want to give any details regarding your investigation?
SCP-XXX: Certain.
Dr. Celentano: Okay, well that concludes our interview. I thank you for your time.

Interviewer: Dr. Henry Waterman
Subject: SCP-XXX<Begin Interview Transcript>
Dr. Waterman: Hello. My name is Dr. Waterman. I'll be conducting this interview on behalf of the SCP Foundation. Previous interviews show that you wish to go by the name "Wishmaster", is that correct?
SCP-XXX: Yes.
Dr. Waterman: Okay "Wishmaster", it has been shown that you possess reality altering anomalous capabilities, are you aware of these capabilities?
SCP-XXX: Yes.
Dr. Waterman: Are you able to control these anomalous capabilities?
SCP-XXX: Yes, and lets call them "wishes" for simplicity.
Dr. Waterman: "Wishes", is there are reason why you refer to them as such?
SCP-XXX: Yes, and it relates to how the process works. If I snap my fingers, whatever wish I have in my mind becomes a reality.
Dr. Waterman: Are there any limits to these wishes?
SCP-XXX: Yeah, first off, I can't wish for anything that I can't think of. I also cannot wish for multiple things at once.
Dr. Waterman: Could you describe an example of this limit?
SCP-XXX: I would not be able to wish for both a nice breakfast and nicer weather, even though I can wish for those things separately.
Dr. Waterman: Do you know of any reason for this limitation?
SCP-XXX: I assume its because I have to construct the wish like a sentence. Under this logic, I can't use "and" in the sentence.
Dr. Waterman: So this limitation is purely semantic, is what you're saying?
SCP-XXX: Yeah, I guess so.
Dr. Waterman: Okay, well, that's all the time allotted for this interview. I will see you tomorrow for a follow up interview.
SCP-XXX: Okay, see you later Dr. Waterman.

<Begin Interview Transcript>
Dr. Waterman: Hello again "Wishmaster". Shall we pick up where we left off?
SCP-XXX: Sure.
Dr. Waterman: So, when tracking you, we used radiological "blips" on our radar. Does this have any relation to your anomalous property?
SCP-XXX: Well, a wish takes a large amount of energy to occur, and that energy has to come from somewhere. The wish takes the energy from my body, with more intense wishes taking a larger toll on my body.
Dr. Waterman: Well, your body does contain an extraordinary amount of energy on its own, but it is hard to extract that energy with 100% efficiency. I assume that those wishes are prompting the fission of atoms in your body, and extracting that energy with at least 99% efficiency.
SCP-XXX: That would explain those radio "blips" you guys said you tracked me with.
Dr. Waterman: Yes it would. We are going to perform some tests on your cells in attempt to confirm this theory.
SCP-XXX: Go for it. It'll be a learning experience for the both of us.

Subject: SCP-XXX<Begin Interview Transcript>
Dr. Waterman: Hello William, time for another interview.
SCP-XXX: Hi, Henry.
Dr. Waterman: So, do you know of the origin of your anomalous property?
SCP-XXX: Yes, I do. I got it from something called "The Wishing Pot".
Dr. Waterman: Can you elaborate?
SCP-XXX: I was on a trip to Ireland, walking the coast of Lambay Island. I stumbled across an interesting pot, so I proceeded to pick it up and open it.
Dr. Waterman: What happened next?
SCP-XXX: A weird purple gas came out of it and enveloped me. The gas sort of…cleared my mind, so to speak. I felt nothing, but I was prompted to make a wish. I couldn't decide on what to wish for, so I decided to wish for infinite wishes.
Dr. Waterman: Do you know how the pot did that?
SCP-XXX: Later down the line, I wished for more information regarding the pot. I learned that it was designed to give someone a chance to make their deepest desire come true. It gives them the ability for one wish, and gives them the energy to make any wish. It also clears their mind, so that they wish for their true desire. For some reason, my mind didn't get cleared in the right way.
Dr. Waterman: Do you know the location of this pot?
SCP-XXX: That's the issue. I can't wish for the location of the pot, or any info regarding the people who have used it. It just feels like something cancels out.
Dr. Waterman: Is this related to your investigation in anyway?
SCP-XXX: No, it's not.
Dr. Waterman: Well, that concludes this interview. Thank you for your time William.
SCP-XXX: See you later Henry.

SCP-XXX
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX is to be contained in a standard containment locker, which is to be placed in the center of a 10x10x4 meter containment cell. A Scranton Reality Anchor is to be installed and set to automatically activate when the cell is accessed. Testing of SCP-XXX has been discontinued, and access to its containment cell is only to be granted for maintenance and structural inspection. Any personnel found handling SCP-XXX are to be immediately terminated.
Description: SCP-XXX is a falchion2 with markings suggesting an origin in 14th century Britain.
SCP-XXX gives its wielder the ability to enact a precise form of reality alteration. The blade of SCP-XXX is the source of all reality alterations. If the blade of SCP-XXX contacts any solid material, it will alter reality regardless of the wielder's intentions or will. If a slashing motion is made with SCP-XXX, a reality wave will be generated that will propagate outwards in the direction of SCP-XXX's inertial motion. This wave will propagate to a radius of 20 meters, at which point its intensity fades to become indistinguishable from baseline reality. This wave can pass through solid objects, however, its intensity will decrease dramatically with each object it passes through.
Solid objects within SCP-XXX's area of effect are modified in state such that their overall situation becomes significantly more organized. If multiple objects are in SCP-XXX's area of effect, they will be modified in relation to one another, in the same organizational fashion. Any blemishes, damages, or markings found on objects changed by SCP-XXX are typically removed.
The majority of subjects who hold SCP-XXX begin to experience auditory hallucinations3 of varying intensity. Subjects experiencing SCP-XXX induced paracusia claim to be engaged in conversation with an unknown individual. The unknown interlocutor and the topic of conversation remain consistent between subjects, suggesting [REDACTED]. (See Addendum XXX-01)
| Test #: XXXX-01 | |
|---|---|
| Subject | 9 cardboard boxes placed randomly within a 5 meter area. The opening of some boxes were placed downwards. |
| Procedure | Exposed to reality wave produced by SCP-XXX. Reality wave created 15 meters away from Subject |
| Results | |
| Boxes were organized into a 3x3 grid. The opening of each box was facing upwards. Any noticeable blemishes to the boxes or masking tape were removed. | |
| Test #: XXXX-02 | |
|---|---|
| Subject | 3 boxes each containing a random assortment of black, blue, and red pens. There was a total of 12 pens between all 3 boxes. Boxes were placed on a wooden table. |
| Procedure | Exposed to reality wave produced by SCP-XXX. Reality wave created 19 meters away from Subject. A series of cardboard boxes similar to Test XXX-01 was placed behind Subject to preemptively contain the reality wave. |
| Results | |
| The contents of each box were changed. The first box contained only black pens. The second box contained only blue pens. The third box contained only red pens. Any blemishes previously found on the boxes, pens, or table were removed. | |
| Test #: XXXX-03 | |
|---|---|
| Subject | 3 boxes with 13 pens randomly dispersed between them. Boxes were placed on a wooden table. |
| Procedure | Exposed to reality wave produced by SCP-XXX. Reality wave created 19 meters away from Subject. A series of cardboard boxes similar to Test XXX-01 was placed behind Subject to preemptively contain the reality wave. |
| Results | |
| The contents of each box changed. Each box contained 4 pens, for a total of 12 pens. The last pen present before exposure has yet to be found. Any blemishes previously found on the boxes or pens were removed. | |
| Test #: XXXX-04 | |
|---|---|
| Subject | A rock obtained approximately 14 meters from testing area. |
| Procedure | Subject made to directly contact the blade of SCP-XXX. Contact lasted approximately 1 second. |
| Results | |
| Any blemishes and marks previously noticeable on Subject were removed. Subject was smoothed into a rounder shape. | |
| Additional Notes | "This is an interesting result. It appears that reality changed by SCP-XXX follows a human perception of reality." - Researcher Ortega |
| Test #: XXXX-05 | |
|---|---|
| Subject | A healthy human |
| Procedure | Subject made to directly contact the blade of SCP-XXX. Contact lasted approximately 3 milliseconds. |
| Results | |
| Subject immediately became more suggestible, and spoke more formally with Foundation staff. Subsequent motor and cognitive tests revealed a higher work ethic and responsiveness from Subject. Approximately 2 hours after testing, Subject experienced intense paracusia, and eventually became uncooperative with Foundation personnel. Subject then became violent with Foundation staff, and was immediately terminated. | |
| Test #: XXXX-06 | |
|---|---|
| Subject | A human suffering from stage 3 breast cancer. Multiple cuts and bruises were applied to Subject briefly before testing. |
| Procedure | Exposed to reality wave produced by SCP-XXX. Reality wave created 19 meters away from Subject. A series of cardboard boxes similar to Test XXX-01 was placed behind Subject to preemptively contain the reality wave. |
| Results | |
| Cuts and bruises applied before testings were removed from Subject. All cancerous cells in Subject were removed. Subject is cancer-free as of 4/20/20██. Subsequent motor and cognitive tests revealed no noticeable changes. | |
| Test #: XXXX-07 | |
|---|---|
| Subject | A human suffering from multiple mental diseases. Subject also displayed sociopathic tendencies. |
| Procedure | Exposed to reality wave produced by SCP-XXX. Reality wave created 19 meters away from Subject. A series of cardboard boxes similar to Test XXX-01 was placed behind Subject to preemptively contain the reality wave. |
| Results | |
| No immediate visual changes. Psychological screening and testing revealed that Subject has been cured of previously mentioned mental diseases. Subject has yet to display any sociopathic tendencies as of 4/20/20██. Subsequent motor and cognitive tests revealed no noticeable changes. | |
| Additional Notes | "It appears that SCP-XXX produces stronger reality alterations if the object directly contacts the blade of it. Otherwise, Tests XXX-06 and XXX-07 should show the same side effects evident in Test XXX-05." - Researcher Ortega |
| Test #: XXXX-08 | |
|---|---|
| Subject | A copy of SCP-XXX documentation |
| Procedure | Subject made to directly contact the blade of SCP-XXX. Contact lasted approximately 1 second. |
| Results | |
| Comparison between Subject and an un-altered copy of SCP-XXX documentation revealed multiple changes. The formatting of Subject has changed to be more consistent, and typographical mistakes unnoticed by personnel were fixed. Subject's description of SCP-XXX's effects was also changed. The Object Class portion of Subject was changed to Keter. | |

Informational Briefing
| Subject: SCP-XXX / PoI-9929 |
Classification Status: Level 4/XXXX |
NOTIFICATION
All Level 4 Researchers assigned to SCP-XXX are to direct their research efforts to provide a conclusion to the claims made in the following summary.
Summary
All information provided in this summary has been obtained from interviews with subjects experiencing paracusia caused by SCP-XXX, as well as theory built on said interviews. Further research is required for concrete data and/or analysis.
It is believed that SCP-XXX currently contains the consciousness of an unknown individual, which is believed to be responsible for any paracusia caused by SCP-XXX. This consciousness appears to belong to a human female of unknown age, and is designated PoI-9929. PoI-9929's real name is not known, but subjects persistently refer to her by the title "The Queen". Interviews of subjects with SCP-XXX induced paracusia have led to a general theory that PoI-9929 is somehow contained within SCP-XXX.
It is theorized that PoI-9929 is a high-level reality bender but, due to her current containment within SCP-XXX, is capable of using these abilities only through the object itself. As a result, the paracusia appears to be an attempt to recruit an external wielder to perform actions she is physically incapable of. If a subject were to directly touch the blade of SCP-XXX, it is assumed that PoI-9929 will simply alter reality to bring the individual into complete subservience. This type of interaction has yet to be documented, but should be a point of caution for those assigned to SCP-XXX.

Addendum XXX-02: Discovery
SCP-XXX was discovered in Euclid, Ohio, during a violent police altercation that resulted in the deaths of two police officers and 12 civilians. The situation was instigated by civilian Gabriel Campbell, who was armed with SCP-XXX. Campbell was subdued by the local police, and embedded Foundation agent Clark King notified the Foundation of the event. Campbell and SCP-XXX were taken into Foundation custody under the guise of an FBI investigation.
Interviewer: Dr. Carlos Ortega (Foundation Researcher)
Interviewee: Gabriel Campbell (Civilian/Relation to SCP-XXX)
Foreword: This interview was conducted before SCP-XXX's psychological effects were properly documented.
Ortega: Alright, Mr. Campbell, would you please tell me where you got SCP-XXX?
Campbell is noticeably distracted and aloof, and responds with a slow and relaxed tone
Campbell: I don't know what that is.
Ortega: The sword you used to assault innocent civilians?
Campbell: Oh, the sword. I found it stuck in a tree a couple of weeks ago. Man, that tree was beautiful. It was bigger than all the other trees, and the light passed through the leaves just right.
Ortega: And where you are of the sword's anomalous properties when you acquired it?
[Campbell doesn't respond]
Ortega: Mr. Campbell, please answer the question.
Campbell: Oh? Sorry, I was lost in thought. Yeah, I knew that the sword made things look better. I didn't tell anybody, cause they would just try and steal it from me.
Ortega: What do you mean, when you say that things "looked better"? Am I to understand you used SCP-XXX prior to your arrest?.
Campbell: I used it to make the forest look better. All the flowers were nice and even, I'm sure the squirrels were happy with it. Squirrels, squirrels…
Ortega: Where is this forest is?
[Campbell doesn't respond]
Ortega: Mr. Campbell, please pay attention to me. I will ask again, where is this forest you are talking about?
Campbell: Sorry, I was just thinking about something else. I don't where the forest is. I used to know its name, but now I just call it the Queen's Forest.
Ortega: The Queen's Forest?Campbell: Yes, the Queen! She's the one I serve. She's trying to make this world perfect, one forest at a time. One forest at a time…
Ortega: Alright…the Queen. Does "The Queen" have another name?
Campbell: "Her Majesty".
Ortega: I mean her actual name.
Campbell: The Queen.
Ortega: Okay. Was the Queen involved in your decision to assault those people, or were you acting alone at that point?
Campbell: Yeah. She said that they were trying to stop her from making the world perfect. She also said that she couldn't convince them otherwise.
[Research into possible resistance to SCP-XXX's psychological effects are ongoing]
Ortega: Wait, how are you able to communicate with The Queen?
Campbell: She talks to me when I hold the sword. She say that she lives in the sword, and that I'm her only way to make the world perfect. I like to think I'm her shining knight.
Ortega: Returning to the original question, those people were very likely unaware of the Queen's existence. How then, were they trying to stop her?
Campbell: Every time the sword made something perfect, they'd change it to back to being un-perfect. Stupid, stupid, stupid…
Ortega: sighs You said that she could not convince them, correct? Why could she not, if she was able to convince you?
Campbell: She said that she can't convince people who are the opposite of perfect. She calls them "anti-perfects", people who only exist to ruin the world. She taught me how to tell between good people and "anti-perfects".
Ortega: Can you describe a good person and an "anti-perfect"? Do some people only exist to make the world better?
Campbell: Yeah. Actually, you are a great example. Your aura is amazing, I'm sure The Queen would love you.
Ortega: I see. I think that will be all for now, thank you.
Additional Notes: After this interview, further research was conducted on SCP-XXX, revealing its psychological effects. The data recorded supports Gabriel Campbell's claims. No attempt at establishing communication with "The Queen" outside of these hallucinatory experiences has been successful.

Item #: SCP-XXX
Object Class: Harpe4
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-XXX is the collective designation for a series of assets and documentation for a fictional TV series about the Foundation. Assets include scripts, production guidelines, casting calls, emails with potential staff or consultants, and purchase receipts. The series was apparently in pre-production, but was cancelled at the time of containment.
The producer of the series is Innes Bachlier (PoI-0102), who has been exceptionally difficult to locate. PoI-0102's last known location is his studio apartment in New York City.
The main character of the series is named "Samuel Brown", a fictional Foundation researcher with the anomalous quality of apparent immortality5. The Foundation in the series is not aware of Dr. Brown's anomalous trait, and most narrative tension is maintained through this plot dynamic.
The series is episodic in nature, with an over-arching plot being slowly built through certain events in episodes. Most episodes6 of the series focus on Dr. Brown's interactions with certain SCP objects. Episodes of this nature would typically begin with Dr. Brown narrating the SCP object's documentation, while also adding in his own conjecture and opinions. There are some episodes that stray from the usual formula, typically featuring a containment breach of sorts or a drama within the Foundation. It is believed that these episodes would carry the over-arching plot through the series.
The accuracy of content within the series requires detailed knowledge of Foundation procedure and operations. It is believed PoI-0102 obtained this information from both dark/deep web archives and a person (PoI-0103) with detailed knowledge of the Foundation. It is not known how PoI-0103 obtained this knowledge of the Foundation, or what motives they have for assisting PoI-0102.
Despite the use of detailed knowledge of the Foundation, the TV series still has a host of inaccuracies. Foundation protocol is often broken during episodes, and SCP objects housed in different sites are all kept in the same site7 in the series.
SCP-XXX Instances:
For ease of navigation, SCP-XXX instances are listed in chronological order, with their designations found below:
SCP-XXX-A: The planned fictional TV series that SCP-XXX documentation refers to. Titled "The SCP Foundation".
SCP-XXX-B: Documentation directly related to production of SCP-XXX-A
SCP-XXX-C: Emails or other documented exchanges between PoI-0102 and PoI-0103

Those who hold SCP-XXX will be transported to SCP-XXX-A, an extra-dimensional plane. This plane will alter reality to put the holder of SCP-XXX in a situation that requires significant psychological or emotional growth to resolve.
SCP-XXX
Item #: SCP-XXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX is to be contained in a standard Anomalous Object Container. The town of Bridgewater, Connecticut is to be monitored for any anomalous activity.
Investigation into the identity of SCP-XXX-A is still ongoing.
Description: SCP-XXX is a steel comb constructed to function in a similar fashion to a balisong knife. The object shows signs of consistent use, with scratches and blemishes appearing upon close inspection.
Any human subject who holds SCP-XXX will arrive at a general consensus of the owner (SCP-XXX-A) being a "hero". Human subjects who have never interacted with SCP-XXX-A can provide neither elaboration or reasoning for their beliefs.
Only human subjects that lived in the town of Bridgewater, Connecticut from the years of 1967-2012 are able to provide either elaboration or reasoning of the belief induced by SCP-XXX.
Most subjects fitting this demographic will proceed to tell stories and anecdotes about their interactions with SCP-XXX-A, with most being friendly and kind. Some subjects will start to become emotional upon holding SCP-XXX. Most subjects say that SCP-XXX-A died in an accident, but will be unable to elaborate why.
Only human subjects who are genetically related to SCP-XXX-A are able to provide further details8. Interviews with family members of SCP-XXX-A reveal that SCP-XXX-A died in a cave approximately 240 meters from the town of Bridgewater, apparently protecting the town while doing so.
It should be of note that these subjects will only remember any interactions with SCP-XXX-A while they are holding SCP-XXX. Memories are shown to be fluid, unique, and subjected to standard memory loss patterns, disproving any theories of SCP-XXX implanting these memories
Identification of SCP-XXX-A has proven difficult due to multiple reasons:
- No human subjects with memory of SCP-XXX-A are able to give any identifiable details
- No standard identification documents (marriage license, birth certificate, etc.) have been linked to SCP-XXX-A
- All photos containing SCP-XXX-A feature blemishes or damage that prevents proper identification.
Discovery: SCP-XXX was obtained by Foundation through an auction, with the final bid of $████ going to Aaron Hal, a Foundation Researcher. Following consistent use and interaction with the object, Researcher Hal believed the object had anomalous qualities. Foundation testing proved that the object did indeed have anomalous qualities, and standard procedure followed.
SCP-XXX was initially categorized in the Anomalous Items Log, due to its seemingly basic anomalous attributes. This status was maintained for approximately 6 years until Researcher Hal conducted independent research into the origin of the object. This led Researcher Hal to the town of Bridgewater, Connecticut, where the object's other anomalous qualities were discovered.
Researcher Hal used SCP-XXX to locate SCP-XXX-A's immediate family, Patricia York (wife) and Jonathan York (son). After basic introductions, the following interviews were conducted.
Interviewer: Aaron Hal (Foundation Researcher)
Interviewee: Patricia York (Bridgewater Resident / Relation to PoI)
Notes: None
Hal: So, I've heard that your husband was the one who owned this comb?
Patricia: I…don't really understand, may I see the comb?
Hal: Of course
Researcher Hal proceeds to hand SCP-XXX to Mrs. York
Patricia: Oh! My lord yes! This belonged to my late husband! Where did you find it?!
Hal: I purchased it at an auction. Do you know how it got there?
Patricia: No clue, but thank you for finding it for me! I was looking for something to remember him by since that incident.
Hal: Sorry? What incident?
Patricia: Oh, it was horrible. These…thugs started to harass our town. My husband was the only one who had the courage to stand up to them.
Mrs. York starts to become emotional
York: Then one day, they decided to steal one of our cows. My husband found out that they were holed up in a cave9, so he went…
Mrs. York gets choked up, and begins to sob
Hal: Mrs. York, we don't have to continue this interview if you-
Patricia: No no, its fine. Its just…
Patricia: He got the cow, but they got him
Mrs. York emotionally breaks down at this point. Researcher Hal attempts to console her.
Hal: It's alright, it's alright, calm down.
Patricia: Violently sobbing We still have the cow! Her name is Marie!
Inspection of the cow shows multiple scars, presumably from claws
Hal: Don't worry, I'm gonna go and find whoever did this to your husband.
Patricia: Sniffling Will you?
Hal: Its technically my job now, so yes.
Patricia: More composed Thank you sir, what is your job anyway
Hal: Forensic Scientist (Researcher Hal's tasks are mainly archival)
Closing Notes: "Large chance of anomalous events occurring here. I'm gonna need to do some more investigating before I bring this up for review" - Researcher Hal
Interviewer: Aaron Hal (Foundation Researcher)
Interviewee: Jonathan York (Bridgewater Resident / Relation to PoI)Notes: None
Hal: So, Johnny, do you remember your father at all?
Jonathan: Um….not really no, I don't remember that much about him before he died.
Hal: Well, was this comb his?
Researcher Hal hands SCP-XXX to Jonathan York.
Jonathan: yeah…Yeah! This comb was his! I remember he used to let me play with it!
Hal: Really?
Jonathan: Yeah! But one day, it hit my fingernail too hard and I started bleeding. He stopped letting me use it after that.
Hal: Great, it seems that this comb is starting to jog some of your memories. Do you remember much about your father now?
Jonathan: Huh? Oh, I do! I'm starting to remember a lot now!
Hal: Like what?
Jonathan: He taught me a bunch of things! He taught me how to ride a bike, how to whistle, and he even let me help him with his job!
Hal: What was his job?
Jonathan: I think he was a carpenter. I would hold the wood in place, and he would use this cool saw to cut it in half, sometimes he would do it twice.
Hal: That's very cool Johnny, do you know what happened to your dad?
Jonathan's facial expression changes
Jonathan: Oh, I think he was killed by a bunch of jerks. I heard that he went to get our cow Marie back when they stole her. He got her back, but he still died somehow.
Jonathan: My mom never told me about it, but the people in town talked about it enough for me to know.
Hal: Do you know who the jerks who killed your father were?
Jonathan is silent
Hal: Johnny?
Jonathan begins to get choked up
Jonathan: He said he would teach me how to solve a Rubik's cube. He could do it really fast, but I couldn't.
Jonathan: Sobbing He was gonna teach me, but he never did! Those jerks took him away before he could!
Hal: Oh Johnny. Don't worry, I'll do something about those jerks.
Jonathan: Regaining composure You will?
Hal: Yes. It is my job after all.
Closing Notes: N/A
After this interview, Researcher Hal requested that Anomalous Item #8927 be given SCP classification. Request was granted.
Addendum XXX-01:
Upon investigation into the location where SCP-XXX-A died, the following note was found,
I'm sorry it had to come to this. I stopped them from taking you, but I couldn't stop them from taking me. Tell the others I'm sorry. Hopefully my comb and Marie will be enough for you to remember me by.
Love, [ILLEGIBLE]
