Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: Each instance of SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a 5m x 5m x 3m high, coated in glass to prevent accidental ignition and loss of structural integrity. The room is to be furnished with a single bed, a chair and a table. Reasonable requests may be fulfilled, with approval from Dr. Spruce.

All objects within the room, that are to remain inside for any extended period of time, longer that 1 (one) day is to be coated in glass outside of approved testing, this dis-includes the bed due to it being impractical to coat with glass, to prevent combustion of the object. Subjects leaving containment must be under the supervision supervision of at least one (1) facility guards, for social interaction. Should any form of combustion occur, subject is to be sedated, and returned to containment.

Description: SCP-XXXX refers to a group of 4 humanoids, between the ages of 7 to 15 years old, referred to as SCP-XXXX-A, SCP-XXXX-B, SCP-XXXX-C, SCP-XXXX-D. SCP-XXXX-A is a 15 year old male 170cm in height, and tends to be the authoritative figure in the group. SCP-XXXX-A tends to be very protective of the other subjects being the oldest in the group. While mostly cooperative, SCP-XXXX-A will often become annoyed and as a lack of patience with other people. SCP-XXXX-B is a 13 year old female, 157cm in height. SCP-XXXX-B has a very outgoing and sociable personality, often engaging in conversation with the other members staff when ever it can. SCP-XXXX-C and SCP-XXXX-D are a pair of identical, female 8 year old, twins, 125cm in height. SCP-XXXX-C is generally more outgoing than SCP-XXXX-D, often bossing SCP-XXXX-D around when they are together. They tend to be polite and very cooperative.

Their primary anonymous ability is the ability to produce a dark purple flame capable of burning anything, henceforth referred to as hellfire. This fire does not cause any chemical reaction with the object, appearing to conceptually burn it. This means that the object that is to be burned does not have to be able to facilitate combustion. The only material that they have failed to ignite is glass. They can project this fire to any object that can directly observe, although they can not ignite objects if viewed through glass. The only means to suppress the fire is to induce unconsciousness in the subject.

The abilities of the SCP-XXXX instances have been shown to increase in strength and precision with the age of the subject, given training. As such SCP-XXXX-A has shown the ability to project hellfire into the palm of it's hand, without using any source material to burn, an has never demonstrated any cases of subconscious/unintentional ignition. It is fully capable of manipulating any hellfire in visible range, regardless of whether it is looking through glass. SCP-XXXX-B is capable of manipulating hellfire produced by itself, although, it can not manipulate hellfire created by others. This is impeded by glass though. SCP-XXXX-B has been documented to occasional create hellfire unintentional, but this happens rarely. SCP-XXXX-C and SCP-XXXX-D have the lowest ability to control hellfire, only being able to create it. They have been documented often causing igniting object unintentional.

SCP-XXXX-A and SCP-XXXX-B have been demonstrated to show a second ability, allowing them to convert their entire body into hellfire and revert back to their normal form at will. It is currently unknown if this effect is due to their age or if SCP-XXXX-C and SCP-XXXX-D simply do not posses this ability. In this form, they are impervious to physical attacks, and show enhanced speed and stamina, and can deform and reform their body from any source of hellfire within optical range, although they have not been demonstrated to be able to change the shape of their mass from that of their original form. This form also has a time limit of about 20 minutes, varying between usages, with elongated usage sessions resulting in exhaustion, requiring about 30 minutes before this ability can be used again.

Addendum XXXX-01: Recovery: The entities were brought into foundation custody on the ██/██/20██ during a raid on a suspicious building, believed to be the location of a cult calling them self's the Subconscious . The location was brought to the attention of the foundation after reports of a "black fire" emanating from the location. During a raid on the location, foundation found the entities restrained inside a glass room with lacerations, bruises, and other signs of physical trauma on their body. Initial containment proved to be difficult because the oldest of the entities, SCP-XXXX-A, would ignite the anything not constructed of glass around them in order to protect the other entities, this continued until one of the foundation operatives was able to stun the subject.
