Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept in a standard containment locker, located in area [REDACTED], and are not to be removed from said location unless specified by at least two level 4 personnel.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a white and gray-ish mask, resembling a human face, believed to be made out of some sort of plastic. Tests on the composition of SCP-XXXX are still ongoing, but have proved difficult due to the inability to remove samples from SCP-XXXX.
SCP-XXXX's anomalous properties manifest only when worn by a human subject. Said properties does not manifest on any kind of animal, insect or [REDACTED]. SCP-XXXX's anomalous properties manifest when it is placed over a subjects face. Should the mask be removed, the subject will instantly die, with no clear indication as of why. However, when SCP-XXXX is being held in place by either the subject, or a strap, the subject, henceforth known as SCP-XXXX-1, becomes invulnerable to most means of direct damage. Tests have shown that bullets have no effect on SCP-XXXX-1, and simply bounce off the subject. SCP-XXXX-1 is also invulnerable to all kinds of blunt force, but will fall or get pushed back if the force of the item is too great.
Further testing has revealed, however, that there are multiple ways to harm SCP-XXXX-1, one of which is gassing the subject with any kind of gas. Security measures have been taken to always keep testing of SCP-XXXX in a air-tight room, equipped with multiple gas valves should SCP-XXXX-1 prove difficult to control during testing. Other ways to harm SCP-XXXX-1 include [REDACTED] and [REDACTED]. SCP-XXXX is subject to more tests in the future. It has recently been discovered that SCP-XXXX's anomalous effects have increased for each victim it "claims", and as such, further testing has been postponed. So far, these anomalous effects include, but are not limited to; A sudden urge to sleep, the sound of incomprehensible whispers, strong desires to keep SCP-XXXX on, and the sudden loss of sight for a limited time.
SCP-XXXX was first discovered on the 14th of May, 2018, in a burned out hut located in a forest, near Rogaland, Norway. Exact location is not available in this document. SCP-XXXX was first found by norwegian police of criminal investigations, and was noted to be found in a pristine condition, laying in the ashes of the burned down hut, with no visible damage to it whatsoever. Criminal investigators removed SCP-XXXX from said location, transporting it back to headquarters for testing. Multiple attempts to gain samples from SCP-XXXX was made, but no progress was made.
SCP agents were first notified of SCP-XXXX when criminal investigators reported their find to the head of police, which in turn reported the find to his superior, ██████ ██████. ██████ ██████ proceeded to notify the SCP foundation and agents were dispatched to retrieve the item.
Initial tests on SCP-XXXX by SCP personnel proved unsuccessful, and as such, more powerful equipment were authorized to attempt to either damage or take samples from SCP-XXXX. All tests failed. SCP personnel made note of the fact that the mask seemed to have been made in parts, as seen on fused joints on the mask. Due to the smooth surface on the inside of the mask, it was believed to have been created by applying the material directly to the face of a human being. Further testing was approved.

Entry log 1, 19-05-2018:
We've tried everything you can possibly think of. We've drilled in it, hammered away at it, thrown it against the walls, jumped on it, drowned it in acid… Hell, we even tried the jackhammer. Nothing!
And that's what so weird about it… 'cause everything about it screams plastic. It looks like plastic, it feels like plastic, and it acts like plastic. When put under a microscope, it even looks like plastic, hell, for all i know it IS plastic. I just don't know what kind, and how its so sturdy. I can bend it slightly, but it just bends back in place. I can't wrap my head around it. It's like it's made out of a new type of plastic that just can't be broken. If we could just figure out what it's really made out of, and figure out a way to shape it, we could make it into the perfect armor. Heck, I'm sure we'd be invincible if we coated ourselves in it. But as of right now, it can only protect your face… I think. Maybe we could find a use for it, actually…

Entry log 2, 21-05-2018:
Yeah okay, so my idea to make the mask into a protective mask was approved. All I had to do was glue some hooks on the sides of the mask to add a strap to keep the mask in place. Problem is, nothing sticks to it. Nothing! I've tried super glue, silicone, magnets on each side and even grease. It all just falls or slides off it. This is maddening. I'm just going to add a strap over the whole thing to keep it in place, since i can't attach a strap near the ends of it. Probably best to add the strip below the nose to prevent it from hindering vision. Still… this mask is weird
Dr. █████ was found dead a few minutes after the audio log was recorded. Autopsy reports reported nothing out of the ordinary. Video surveillance of the room shows Dr. █████ testing the strap on the mask, and then proceeding to put the mask on himself. He was then seen walking around with the mask equipped, moving back and forth and jumping up and down. This is believed to be normal behavior, in order to test if the mask would fall off. After about 2 minutes of testing, Dr. █████ sat down and removed the mask from his face. Dr. █████ then fell down, lifeless, as soon as the mask was removed from his face. The mask was later moved to a secure facility for temporary storage.
The SCP foundation later received intel that the owner the burned down hut, known as Helge █████ █████ had ordered a large amount of Polymorph from website █████ approximately 31 days before the incident. During the timespan of twelve days, Helge █████ █████ had also ordered multiple other items from various sites, these items included, but are not limited to; Red wax candles, red and black permanent markers, black cloth, vials of different shapes and sizes, a replica of a human head, a replica of two human hands, a full size mannequin and a [REDACTED].
It is believed by SCP personnel that the mask is made out of the polymorph ordered by Helge █████ █████, as the two are nearly identical in composition when compared. Though the amount ordered far surpasses the amount needed to create the mask, it is belived that either Helge █████ █████ fled with the remaining Polymorph and/or it perished during the fire. The owner of the hut was never found in the hut, and has not been seen since.
Further tests commenced on the 24th of July. See text transcripts of audio logs below:
Test log XXXX-1
Subject: D-9012, Male. Average physique. 32 years old.
Dr. Mike: D-9012, please put the mask on and hold it in place. Do not remove it.
D-9012: Fine.
D-9012 puts the mask on, all while holding it in place.
D-9012: Now what?
Dr. Mike: Let me put on the strap. It's important that you do not let go.
D-9012: I can put on the damn thing myself doc.
Dr. Mike: I'd prefer to do it myself. Please keep the mask on.
Dr. Mike proceeds to put on a strap below the noseline of the mask.
Dr. Mike: Alright, please let go. The strap should hold it in place.
D-9012: Jesus, what's all this crap for anyway? This mask is really uncomfortable.
Dr. Mike: No questions please. Alright, let the experiment commence. D-9012, i will now leave the room. Please do not remove the mask under any circumstances. You have been provided with a television with multiple channels to view while waiting. Please let us know if you experience anything unusual while waiting.
D-9012: Oh hell yeah, this just got much better.
Dr. Mike proceeds to exit the room. D-9012 turns on the television and starts watching TV. After about 2 hours, D-9012 complains about being thirsty. D-9012 is denied water until the test concludes.
2 more hours pass. Dr. Mike enter the room again
Dr. Mike: Alright D-9012, we're done here. Please follow us.
D-9012: Like hell, this is the best i've had it since i came here. Let me at least finish watching this episode of …
Dr. Mike: D-9012, you will come with us right away or you will be terminated.
D-9012: Come one man, i've done exactly as you asked, can't you cut me some slack? This is my favorite show!
Dr. Mike proceeds to signal for armed personnel to enter. The armed personnel enter the cell and aim weapons at D-9012
Dr. Mike: This is your last warning D-9
D-9012: Whoa! Alright, i'm sorry! I'm coming!
Dr. Mike: Actually, while i have the guards here, I'd like to perform one last test.
D-9012: Alright, what do i…
Dr. Mike: Interrupting D-9012 There has been multiple attempts to damage the mask you are wearing, but none have worked so far. It is, as of right now, indestructible. I would, however, like to test if the mask also absorbs the force applied to it.
D-9012: What do you mean?
Dr. Mike: Quite simple really. Mike here will fire ONE bullet, into the mask, and you will simply let me know if you feel anything. Not to worry, he is quite skilled with…
D-9012: Interrupting Dr. Mike I'm not going to let you shoot me!
Dr. Mike: He is not going to shoot you, he is going to fire one bullet at the mask. As i stated earlier, the mask is indestructible, and…
D-9012: No! I'm not doing this! Please don't shoot me!
D-9012: proceeds to raise his arms, backing away slowly, all while pleading for Dr. Mike to "stop this"
Dr. Mike: Looking towards armed personnel Mike Proceed please.
Armed personnel mike quickly lifts his weapon and aims at D-9012. D-9012 panics and raises his hands in front of his face, in an attempt to cover himself. One round is fired.
Dr. Mike: D-9012, are you alright? Did you get hit anywhere else but the mask?
D-9012: Looking around, and inspecting his hands and body No… I don't think so. You could have killed me man!
Dr. Mike: Nonsense, if you had kept your arms down you there wouldn't have been any danger do your life. Now, did you feel anything when the bullet hit you?
D-9012: No… Nothing. I don't … Nevermind.
Dr. Mike: Splendid! Then we can conclude this test. Please, follow me.
End log
Security cameras later revealed that the bullet fired by armed personnel Mike, hit D-9012 in the lower palm of his left hand, however, the bullet bounced straight off it. More tests followed, and confirmed that not only was the hand of the subject wearing SCP-XXXX invulnerable, but their whole body. See test log XXXX-2, [REDACTED] and [REDACTED].
Dr. Mike was issued a warning by the ethics committee for his actions during the first test, but was permitted to continue his experiments. See test log XXXX-2, [Redacted] and [Redacted]. D-9012 was ordered to remove the mask, and died instantly when the mask was removed.
Test log XXXX-2.
Subject: D-8065. Male, overweight physique. 54 years old.
Subject was briefed about the nature of SCP-XXXX, and the purpose of the experiment beforehand, but was not told what would happen when SCP-XXXX was removed.
Dr. Mike: Alright, D-8065, please sit still while i put the mask on.
D-8065: Sure.
Dr. Mike is recorded attaching SCP-XXXX to D-8065's face. A slight twitch is seen on D-8065.
D-8065: Oh jeez…
Dr. Mike: Something wrong?
D-8065: No… I just… felt a little tingly.
Dr. Mike: A little… Tingly?
D-8065: Yeah… I don't know… I just felt a bit trapped when you put the mask on… But i'm fine now i guess.
Dr. Mike: Alright… Continuing on then.
Dr. Mike picks up a syringe, and attempts to draw blood from SCP-XXXX-1. The needle breaks.
Dr. Mike: Note; Sharp objects fail to penetrate subjects skin. Force applied, but the needle is now broken.
D-8065: Wow, that's cool. I didn't really believe you at first but this really could save a lot of lives, just like you said doc!
Dr. Mike: Please stay calm D-8065. Let's try something else.
Dr. Mike is seen picking up a saw from the table
Dr. Mike: Alright let's try this. You remember to let me know if this hurts in any way.
D-8065: Of course doc.
Dr. Mike is seen using the saw on the subjects left arm, but with no effect. The saw fails to grip the subject, and Dr. Mike is seen struggling, eventually giving up.
D-8065: That's insane man…
Dr. Mike: Note; Saw is ineffective. I will now attempt with a hand held grinder.
D-8065: Whoa, doc… Don't you think that's…
Dr. Mike: Interrupting D-8065 Please, no questions. Please let me know if you feel any pain.
D-8065: Please be careful…
Dr. Mike puts away the saw, picking up the grinder. Dr. Mike starts the grinder, and is seen attempting to cut into SCP-XXXX-1's skin with no effect whatsoever. Dr. Mike stops when the disc is worn out.
D-8065 can be heard murmuring to himself about how "amazing this is".
Dr. Mike: Note; Hand held grinder holds no effect on subject. We're done here for now.END LOG
Following test XXXX-2, D-8065 was ordered to remove the mask, and suffered the same fate as D-9012. It was however noted, that D-8065 lived for approximately 0,6 seconds longer than D-9012 upon removing the mask.
Test log XXXX-3.
Subject: D-4091. Male, skinny physique. 37 years old.
Subject was not briefed about the nature of SCP-XXXX, but was told to never remove it under any circumstances. D-4091 is led into a small room with a large couch, a television, a small fridge and a heart monitor.
Dr. Mike: Alright, D-4091, you may sit down.
D-4091: Alright.
D-4091 proceeds to sit down on the large couch.
Dr. Mike: I'm going to be attaching this heart monitor to you now. It's vital that you keep it on at all times. To your right you have been provided with a fridge filled with drinks and food in liquid form. There are also multiple straws for you to use. It's vital that you do not remove the mask during testing, but you are permitted to lift it slightly to use the straw when necessary.
D-4091: Liquid food? You mean like soup and such?
Dr. Mike: Yes, that is one of your options.
//Dr. Mike proceeds to attach the heart monitor and mask to D-4091, then turns on the television. D-4091 is seen to twitch once the mask is attached.
Dr.Mike: Did you feel anything?
D-4091: Ah, yeah. I think you hit a bad spot on my head or something. Got a slight headache, but it's gone now.
Dr.Mike: Alright, the test will then commence. You will stay in the room and do as you please. Should you require to alleviate yourself, the door behind you will lead to a toilet. Let us know if you feel strange in any way. As the experiment will last for up to 48 hours, you may also sleep on the couch should you wish to do so.
D-4091: Alright, thanks Doc.
//Dr. Mike proceeds to exit the room, and lock the door behind him. D-4091 switches channels four times before stopping to watch a comedy show. No further communication is attempted by D-4091 until 6 hours and 32 minutes pass.
D-4091: But i'm not really that tired. Can't i just keep watching?
Dr.Mike: What was that D-4091?D-4091: I said i'm not that tired, I don't think i'd be able to sleep already.
Dr. Mike: I'm confused, did someone tell you do go to sleep?
D-4091: Well, yeah, i thought you did?
Dr.Mike: We have not had contact with you since the beginning of the experiment. Are you saying that you heard someone tell you to go to sleep?
D-4091: Eh, no. Nevermind, it was probably just the TV.Dr.Mike: Please let us know if this happens again, or if any other symptoms appear.
D-4091: Alright, will do.
//D-4091 continues to watch TV for another 4 hours before turning off the television to attempt to sleep on the couch. D-4091 is seen to be covering himself with a blanket, laying on his back. 14 minutes pass and D-4091 can be heard snoring loudly. Another 9 hours and 23 minutes pass, before D-4091's snoring abruptly stops. D-4091 then abruptly rises, and looks around the room, the at his hands, body, and finally the heart monitor. D-4091 proceeds to rip off the heart monitor equipment from himself and looks directly at the camera in the room
Dr.Mike: D-4091, what are you doing? I specifically ordered you to NOT remove the
D-4091 interrupts Dr.Mike mid sentence.
D-4091: Where are my gloves? You have only the mask. I require my gloves.
Dr.Mike: Your gloves? What are you talking about? You
D-4091 proceeds to interrupt Dr. Mike again, this time in a more hostile tone.
D-4091: The gloves! You have located my mask, but i also require my gloves. Bring me my gloves!
Dr.Mike: What… There are no gloves, there is just the mask. What gloves are you talking about D-4091?
D-4091: I see. You have not located them yet. That is most disappointing. I expected the foundation to be able to find all parts, especially the gloves, but it seems I expected too much from you. Go to the following coordinates, █████████████████████████. You will find them there. Bring them to me, with my mask, then we can converse again.
D-4091 proceeds to remove the mask, and falls limp to the floor 1,4 seconds after the mask is removed from skin contact. SCP-XXXX falls to the floor next to D-4091. The experiment is terminated, and O5 command contacted.
[THE REMAINING DOCUMENTATION OF SCP-XXXX IS CURRENTLY UNDERGOING DECLASSIFICATION.]
