Item: SCP-4360-The Tyrant from Afar

Object class: Keter Safe

Special Containment Procedures:

4360 is to be held in a 10x10x4 meter building, chained up with some slack. The building must be in a large field 100 x 100 meters with an 8 meter tall fence. There are to be no more than 20 people assigned to him at a time. After every month, personnel are to be brought into a larger site to undergo a psych-review. If they seem in any way to be fearful of 4360, even in a well protected facility, or caring towards him, they are to be switched out immediately, and if the problem persists, a class-D amnestic is to be given to the afflicted person(s). During a breach, all personnel are to be evacuated beyond the perimeter fence. A system of small vents set up throughout the field will attempt to knock him unconscious with a very powerful anaesthetic. 4360 is then to be recontained, chained back up, and sealed back in its chamber.

Description:

This SCP is a bipedal humanoid covered in thick, dark obsidian plates. He stands at roughly 3.3 m tall. He has a tail that can be compared to that of a crocodile tail covered in these black plates. He has large gauntlets with large blades on the end and back of said gauntlet, along with a foldable shield. The creature has no eyes; research has shown that it uses some sort of constant echolocation to see using a warbling sound. The creature over time is shown to have an effect on the mind, charming the subject, or resulting in complete mental domination, but only when it is allowed to converse. Anybody who communicates regularly must report for a psych evaluation tri-annually, and there is a site-wide evaluation every two years. The creature has a large maw, which it can use to speak verbally but only very basic words. 4360 usually uses telepathy to communicate with others, but only those it knows are there. It must see or sense them. The item is also categorized as a relatively low grade cognitohazard, due to the effect on the minds of subjects and personnel.

Addendum:

After being found wandering around in the wilderness near [DATA EXPUNGED] he has been in the custody of The Foundation. When conducting a search of the village after, they found many items that 4360 claimed was theirs, and called them 'magical'. These items were confiscated for further research. It is also worth noting 4360 came after resisting and being put down with a mass of gun fire. From ████ interrogations with the staff tasked to and rotated from 4360 we found out his past. He was a tyrant from a far away dimension, who rose to power by forcibly overthrowing a kingdom with his 'brothers and sisters', but his lust for more power drove him to invade the others. He lead armies against the free world and was on the verge of victory. However, a band of adventurers stood against it. A fight occurred, and after most of the adventurers had died, only one stood against 4360. A wizard of great power. The wizard opened a portal in an attempt to banish 4360. It was a success to say the least. But in that act he was pulled in. They traveled beyond the boundaries of their universe and came out here. Once they came out, the wizard was slaughtered. His remains were found by an MTF team sent to investigate the energy disturbance.

Although after a few weeks in containment there was a breach, one of the worst in Site-███. 4360 proceeded to break through the chamber door where he was kept and went on a rampage. After killing ██ lives, he was stopped by a helicopter with a modified GUA-8. The rounds had high effectiveness at stalling 4360, and in the end knocked it unconscious. He was then chained back up. After there were no significant loss of life from 4360. We used one of the items found in the village 4360 appeared in, they were chains that we found to be very effective at holding 4360 in place. The chains were made out of a stronger and more reproducible version of graphene, that we now find in nature in relatively small quantities (~1-2 kg per year) allowing us to reproduce the chains by the time 4360 breaks out again.

NOTE Due to the breach, new containment plans are being drawn up, we think that a large area may work better, giving us time to react due to 4360's extremely slow speed. This will lead to a much lower loss of life every breach.

Its telepathy may work for and against 4360. We have found that although human minds are weaker than 4360's, the telepathic communication is somewhat of a two-way street, very limited on our side albeit. With enough time and people we might catch a glimpse at its future plans.

Due to the possibility of a CK-reconfiguration scenario (at the least) from 4360's armies somehow breaking into our reality, a termination test has been requested by level 4 researchers to the 05-council. Permission Granted by 05-council

Notable Information

SCP-4360 has been shown to be highly resistant to all forms of damage, but can be killed, but in the process would most likely expose the foundation and require many resources
