Title #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: Regardless of on-site location, when not being used for testing, SCP-XXXX is to be kept in the “Dungeons Dragons 5e Starter Set” it was acquired by the Foundation in. Testing must be approved by at least two (2) four (4) five (5) Level-3 or higher personnel. Any testing on SCP-XXXX or aberrations created by it be held in a room with dimensions of at least 20’ x 20’ with walls coated in a thin layer of titanium or in an outdoor enviorment. SCP-XXXX is to be placed at a distance a minimum of five feet away from the wall parallel to the front of SCP-XXXX when tested upon. No additional special containment required. (See Addendum SCP-XXXX-A)
Due to the excessive dangers that SCP-XXXX has presented in the past (See Incidents A-C), there must be at least five (5) Level-2 or higher guards whenever SCP-XXXX is being tested on, and another two (2) Level-2 or higher guards stationed outside the room when testing is not occurring. It is highly recommended that D-Class personnel are the only ones who open SCP-XXXX. Whoever opens SCP-XXXX and says a name listed aloud must stay in the room when aberrations are summoned and follow protocol.
Addendum SCP-XXXX-A: It has been proven helpful to have devices that can deoxygenate the testing environment instantaneously, but only when absolutely necessary. Permission is required from the highest-level personnel (at least Level-3 or higher) in the observation room, at which point any personnel in the observation room can activate the vacuum process. All personnel in the test environment will be terminated shortly after. And hopefully the aberration, or God help us all. - O5-██
Addendum XXX-E: Any docile instances of SCP-XXXX-003 are allowed to roam floors with no access to exits freely. If they become hostile, they must be contained in the same environments as SCP-XXXX, minus the titanium coating. There may be no more than four (4) instances of SCP-XXXX-003 in the same room, and personnel interacting with instances are encouraged to spend no more than two (2) hours.
Title #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Description: SCP-XXXX is a fifth edition “Monster Manual” that is physically identical to others of its kind. There were seven (7) pages ripped out of the book when it was acquired. SCP-XXXX was found in a “Dungeons & Dragons 5e Starter Set” in ████████, █████ Dakota. The Foundation was alerted on 08/12/20██ after a family and █ adolescents - who seemed to be playing “Dungeons & Dragons” - were found by local police after several neighbors reported disturbances and concerns. Authorities discovered that all family members and adolescents - except for one (1) - were killed through anomalous means. The Foundation was notified shortly after discovery and Agent ████████ secured SCP-XXXX after it was found undamaged while it’s surroundings [REDACTED].
SCP-XXXX was one (1) of three (3) items related to “Dungeons & Dragons” that could be salvaged. The other two items, SCP-XXXX-001 and SCP-XXXX-002, are a stack of 97 seemingly impenetrable “character sheets” that aren’t filled out, and a plastic icosahedron with numbers 1-20 on each triangular face, more commonly known as a d20, respectively. SCP-XXXX-001 and 002 have a anomalous connection with SCP-XXXX; whenever SCP-XXXX-001 or 002 is removed from the starter set and separated from SCP-XXXX at a minimum of 50ft, it takes actions to return to SCP-XXXX (See Test Log). Upon physical contact with a living human, any instance of SCP-XXXX-002 is instantly written out, completing the sheet, making a playable character that is best fit for the person who established contact in that moment. Any filled out instance of SCP-XXXX-002 will change upon physical contact with a new subject, creating a completely new sheet. Although chemical analysis shows the material used to write on SCP-XXXX-002 is graphite, whenever a sheet is touched and re-written, there is no trace of any previous writing. Any attempts take pictures of a filled out version of SCP-XXXX-002 will [REDACTED] and any personnel who witnessed [DATA EXPUNGED] must be terminated.
SCP-XXXX responds to verbal triggers; when a page describing a “monster” is opened and the name of the creature on the page is spoken in any language, it will materialize at times ranging from .021 seconds to five (5) minutes, depending on the size as described in the “stat block” of the creature. Also listed in the stat block is a creatures name, strengths, weaknesses, alignment, how it attacks, armor class, and speed. Factors listed above have a proven impact on what kind of creature comes out and whether it is hostile. Testing proves any person who can pronounce the name of a creature in the book can summon it with a 100% success rate.
SCP-XXXX-001 must be accessible during all testing of SCP-XXXX. Whenever an aberration created by SCP-XXXX is hostile or has been provoked, it will attempt to terminate all local personnel and breach containment. Almost all aberrations summoned follow the standard combat rules of “Dungeons & Dragons”, and will not attack unless it is their “turn”. Any personnel who enter the room are to have memorized all rules in both the fifth edition “Player’s Handbook” and “Dungeon Master’s Guide” and must score over a ninety-five (95) on the E-SCP-XXXX-A exam, which tests a subjects knowledge on the basics and advanced portions of the game.
Any personnel who enter the room SCP-XXXX is contained in must have their character sheet. E-SCP-XXXX-A will test a subjects knowledge on their own character sheet. If at any point a subject in the testing environment begins to panic, forgets how to play, or interrupts protocol in any other way, they are to be either reprimanded, administered Class A amnestic, or terminated depending on importance to the Foundation. D-Class personnel who are unauthorized to communicate with an aberration [REDACTED], and are to be terminated without hesitation.
Several experiments have been conducted on SCP-XXXX and it’s properties, with many more underway under the approval of O5-██
Addendum XXXX-D: Seven (7) pages have been forcibly removed from SCP-XXXX. When looking at a normal “Monster Manual”, these are the monsters that would have been in SCP-XXXX if they weren’t removed:
- Ancient Red Dragon
- Purple Worm
- Kraken
- [DATA EXPUNGED]
- Tarasque
- Empyrean
- [REDACTED]
SCP-XXXX Experiment Log
Approved by O5-█
Monitored by Dr. █████, Dr. ███, and Researcher ███████
All researchers are encouraged to use the following format to record any experiments conducted on SCP-XXXX or anything created by it:
Date: XX/XX/XX██
Test Subject: D-XXXXXX (Brief description; standard identification protocols)
Procedure:
Notes:
Date: 6/12/20██
Test Subject: D-710361; 32 year old caucasian male with an average physical build; scored highly on E-SCP-XXXX-A; subject is not informed of SCP-XXXX’s abilities.
Procedure: Subject is instructed to enter the testing environment, a 20’ x 20’ room containing one light source, three (3) Level 2 guards, and a Kodak camera stationed on a tripod with a microphone in the northwest corner of the room, used to observe and communicate to the Subject by researchers. Subject enters without objection.
Subject is asked by researchers to establish physical contact with SCP-XXXX-002, which he does without objection. Upon physical contact, SCP-XXXX-002 is filled out. Subject looks startled, but when asked what is written, his cooperation is not hindered by his surprise.
Audio Log XXXX-1
<Begin Log - Skip to 00hrs, 06min, 31sec>
D-710361: “What? th- thats my name! My age? How does it know who I am?”
Researcher K███: “Calm down 710. Please tell me exactly what is on the sheet.”
D-710361: “Yeah… yeah okay [pause] sorry doc, just took me by surprise is all.”
Researcher K███: “The sheet please, 710.”
D-710361: “Alright, well it looks like the character sheet in the Player’s Handbook, except it’s filled out with… [Subject pauses as he takes a breath]
Researcher K███: “Go on”
D-710361: “Well my name is on here, it’s got my age right… my height… and all that stuff. My race is human, and my ability scores seem… correct. Why don’t I just show it to you eggheads back there?
Researcher K███: “Two things 710. One, don’t call us eggheads again, unless you seek termination. Second, go ahead.”
<End of Log>
Investigation concludes that when the Subject proceeds to lift up the instance of SCP-XXXX-002 to the camera, it caused SCP-XXXX-002 [DATA EXPUNGED]. As a result, 4 researchers, 3 guards, and D-701361 were terminated by SCP-XXXX-002’s effects. - Dr. █████
Notes: The unfortunate loss of researchers K███, G████, L█████, and F████ has temporarily impacted the morale of staff at Site 42, for they were intelligent, motivated, and were well-liked by other researchers. I would like approval to reassign senior researcher A███ from observation of SCP-███ on Site █ to research of SCP-XXXX, because he is hard working and makes no effort to attend social conventions, like he did for my marriage.
Addendum SCP-XXXX-B: After reviewing your request, the O5 council has decided to grant approval of the reassignment of senior researcher A███ from observation of SCP-███ on Site █ to research of SCP-XXXX.
Date: 07/02/20██
Test Subject: D-711802; 24 year old caucasian male with an above-average physical build; passed mental stability test; Scored high on E-SCP-XXXX-A; Subject is informed not to point instances of SCP-XXXX-002 at the camera because of its fatal effects.
Procedure: Subject is instructed to enter the testing environment, a 20’ x 20’ room coated in a thin layer of titanium containing one light source, four (4) Level 2 guards, and a Kodak camera stationed on a tripod with a microphone in the northeast corner of the room, used to observe and communicate to the Subject by researchers. The camera is ready to be turned off by one of the guards when Subject comes into contact with SCP-XXXX-002. Subject enters without objection.
Subject is asked by researchers to establish physical contact with SCP-XXXX-002, which he does without objection. Upon physical contact, SCP-XXXX-002 is filled out. Subject’s pupils dilated upon physical contact with SCP-XXXX-002; researchers agreed this was a surprised reaction to SCP-XXXX-002’s anomalous properties. Although subject was startled, it did not hinder his cooperation.
Audio Log SCP-XXXX-2
<Begin Log - Skip to 00hrs, 03mins, 22sec>
The camera feed is cut while the Subject makes contact with SCP-XXXX-002 to prevent a second incident.
D-711802: “What i- wh- wow! This thing is chocked full of statistics… statistics for a fake character named after me!”
Researcher A███: “Please tell me exactly what is on the sheet.”
D-711802: “Sure… let’s see… says here I’m human… an accurate height of 5’11”… wow, am I really that charismatic? Do I charm you, A███? [Subject chuckles]
Researcher A███: “Approach the book on the table and open to the ‘Flumph’ creature please.”
D-711802: “Alright, you’re the boss… Flumph…”
The Subject flips the book open to the back and reads Appendix B, which is listings for all the creatures, without objection. After locating the page the Flumph is on, he opens to it without hesitating. After the Subject puts his instance of SCP-XXXX-002 out of the cameras sight, the camera is turned on and visual observation is re obtained.
D-711802: “What now? I’m looking at the stats… he’s very smart, but not very strong. Reminds me of you. [Directed at Guard J█████, who was in the southeast corner of the room]
Researcher A███: “Skim through the page and tell me if you notice anything odd.”
D-711802: “Well it’s just a weird name for something anyway… I mean a Flumph? Tha- WOAH WHA-
<END LOG>
Exactly 2.3 seconds after saying the name of the Flumph, an aberration physically identical to how a Flumph is described in SCP-XXXX materialized 5 feet parallel to the front of SCP-XXXX. All personnel were taken by surprise, and acted properly when they terminated the Flumph. The recording ended abruptly after the guard stationed near the camera made a sudden movement in an attempt to reach his sidearm, resulting in him accidentally destroying the camera and microphone by knocking it towards the ground. No personnel or D-Class were harmed. D-711802 is planned to be used for later experiments and will be allowed to live until no longer of use.
Notes: Well, the guards acted appropriately. Saying the name of a monster while the page is opened to it in SCP-XXXX will cause an aberration to, for a lack of a better word, materialize in front of the SCP-XXXX. We’ll have to fill in the next subjects from now on… we don’t want them panicking like everyone in that room did. - Researcher A███
Date: 07/05/20██
Test Subject: D-712829; 22 year old asian male with an above average physical build; passed mental stability test; scored highly on E-XXXX-A; informed of SCP-XXXX’s and it’s dangers, showed mild discomfort.
Procedure: Subject is instructed to enter the testing environment, a 20’ x 20’ room coated in a thin layer of titanium containing one light source, five (5) Level 2 guards, and a Kodak camera stationed on a tripod with a microphone in the northeast corner of the room, used to observe and communicate to the Subject by researchers. The camera is ready to be turned off by one of the guards when Subject comes into contact with SCP-XXXX-002, and is covered by a layer of bulletproof glass. Subject enters with little objection.
Subject is asked by researchers to establish physical contact with SCP-XXXX-002, and responded with mild irritation, but did so regardless. Upon physical contact, SCP-XXXX-002 is filled out. Subject immediately backs his hand away from SCP-XXXX-002, visibly agitated. After being asked to calm down, the subject carries on with the procedure.
Guards are informed through earpieces by Researcher A███ to terminate the subject if he begins to show signs of extreme panic.
Audio Log XXXX-3
<Begin Log, Skip to 00hrs 17mins 38sec>
The camera feed is cut while the Subject makes contact with SCP-XXXX-002 to prevent a second incident.
D-712829: “You’re kidding me, right? I’m not touching that… that thing again! Not until you tell me what it does, or why it knows who I am!”
Researchers take 2 minutes and 11 seconds before they come back to the Subject.
D-712829: “I’ll cooperate if you just tell me what’s going on here! Shouldn’t I know that? Don’t you guys know I have anxiety? Is it in my report or something? And why I’m i-“
Researcher A███: “Please calm down, 712. We have concluded that informing you may heed more positive results.”
D-712829: “Thank God! Now what the hel-“
Researcher A███: “Let me speak, 712. As I said, we believe the chances of survival are much higher if we inform you. That sheet in front of you (SCP-XXXX-002) unexplainably writes itself out whenever a human establishes physical contact with it. It seems to make a character for the game that is… well, you. We don’t know what that dice on the table (SCP-XXXX-001) does as of yet, but whenever you move it a specific length away from the book (SCP-XXXX) it will make attempts to return to the book until it has done so. You know what will happen if you say the name of the creature out loud. Please don’t do so unless asked, and expect a creature to materialize in front of you if you do. Don’t panic, or we will terminate you without hesitation. Understood?”
Subject takes three (3) audible deep breaths before continuing.
D-712829: “Yes sir, thank you. I’m sorry for being jumpy sir.”
Researcher A███: “Don’t do it again. Tell us what is on the sheet.”
D-712829: “Yes sir. [Subject takes time to read over SCP-XXXX-002] It has my name… height… human… Druid? Says here my class is a Druid… a seventeen in dexterity? I know my way around a gun I guess… Druid makes sense too. Nothing seems off sir.”
Researcher A███: “Tell us your character’s flaw.”
D-712829: “Yes sir. It says I… is this some sort of joke?”
Researcher A███: “I had nothing to do with the creation of the paper, 712. What does it say?”
D-712829: “It says ‘Takes advantage of the vulnerable’… sir, this isn’t funny.”
Subject was brought into Foundation custody after he was put on death row in █████, █████ after being found guilty for █ counts of sexual assault and █ counts of sexual misconduct. All of the victims were unaware or drugged in various fashions. Researchers who read Subjects file knew this prior to testing.
Researcher A███: “712, myself and other personnel are aware of your convictions, but it seems 002 is as well. 002 is doing as I hypothesized, and I assure you no one meddled with any objects in this room prior to your arrival. Please go to page 135 in the book.”
D-712829: [After a silence] “Yes sir.”
SCP-XXXX-002 is hidden from the camera. Cameras are turned back on; visuals restored. Subject turns to page 135.
D-712829: “Alright… here! Okay, this creature seems relatively nice actually… lawful good… high intelligence… speaks common… very weak. What now sir?”
Researcher A███: “Stand back and say the name of the creature. Do not panic when it materializes, we want to talk to it.”
D-712829: “Yes sir.” [Subject takes two (2) steps backwards] “Flumph.”
Exactly 2.3 seconds after the creature’s name is spoken, an aberration physically identical to how a Flumph is described in SCP-XXXX materializes (SCP-XXXX-003) exactly five (5) feet away from the front of SCP-XXXX. SCP-XXXX-003 hovers above the ground, completely still. Guards draw their weapons.
D-712829: “Holy- sir, are you seeing this? It’s like as still as a statue! Look at those tentacles…”
Researcher A███: “Pick up the dice. Roll the initiave for both you and the Flumph, and state who you’re rolling for when you do.”
D-712829: “Yes sir.”
Subject proceeds to roll a fourteen (14) and a six (6), verbally stating he was rolling for himself and SCP-XXXX-003, respectively.
Researcher A███: “Looks like it’s your turn… try to have a conversation with it. If he responds, tell him we mean no harm.”
D-712829: “Yes sir.” [Subject takes two (2) steps forward] “Hey, we don’t want to hurt you, we just want to t-“
Subject is visibly startled as SCP-XXXX-003 begins to move several of its appendages slightly; it’s eyes begin to follow the Subject. It begins to glow green.
D-712829: “Hey - Woah! It’s talking to me in my head! Sir, it’s communicating telepathically to me…”
Researcher A███: “Relax, 712, what is i-” [Researcher A███ stops talking]
D-712829: “Sir?”
Researcher A███: “You’ve done well 712. We will require you for future experimentation, and you are now excused from standard monthly termination. Guards, please move 003 to a secure room for interviewing. He is not a threat.”
<End Log>
In a post-experiment interview with Researcher A███, when asked why he concluded the experiment abruptly, he claimed he was somehow able to communicate with SCP-XXXX-003 telepathically. He claimed also that he somehow knew that 003 would cause no harm, which lead to the end of the experiment. After receiving consequences for ending an experiment abruptly for an unknown SCP, Researcher A███ was reassigned to experimentation SCP-XXXX
Notes: This was a brilliant experiment indeed. We managed to determine the significance of SCP-XXXX-001, how the creatures react when first materialized, and now we have an aberration that is currently docile and willing to give information about itself. All of SCP-XXXX-003’s information has proven extremely useful; it has told us when to use SCP-XXXX-001, how all aberrations formed by SCP-XXXX will be tame upon materialization and some time after, and much more. I am formally requesting on behalf of my coworkers that SCP-XXXX-003 be able to freely roam the third floor of the site, for the staff adore him and he gets almost as playful as SCP-999 at times. - Researcher A███
I agree wholeheartedly. He’s a wonderful specimen - if we allowed creation of more of these creatures, they might even be able to help in experimentation! Please consider this, all of the staff love Fido. - Researcher J█████
Addendum XXXX-C: After reviewing your request, the O5 council has concluded that these specific aberrations are green lighted to roam any floor on-site that does not have an exit. It is also cleared for experimental purposes. But if one shows any signs of hostility, it is to be contained by any means necessary. - O5-█
