Welcome to my Sandbox! I apologize for the mess, my sandbox will probably always be kind of all over the place.
I try to keep myself to 3 tabviews per sandbox, which means I'll probably end up having 3 or 4 of these fuckin' things as I keep coming up with ideas. I think approximately thirty times faster than I can work but I promise that when things are published they will be removed, which will hopefully cut my sandbox number down.
The only big idea I have at the moment is:
The Parapsychology Division: A division of researchers that studies anomalous paranormal and psychic phenomena.
You can find further elaboration on the above idea(s) on my second sandbox.
If you would like to see my old, kinda bad SCPs that I'm likely not going to revisit, and scavenge through my junkyard, please click here.
If you would like to see other miscellaneous pages that don't quite work when amongst a bunch of tabs, and GoI Formats, please click here.
In an attempt to keep myself organized, I have made a list of the specific ideas I want to write.

Over the years, the SCP Wiki has developed a wide range of tools and devices that help them in dealing with anomalies. There are so many of them, that I decided it would do me well to start listing them here, for my own recollection.
Amnestics
Everyone knows this one. It's the Foundation's tool of the trade, responsible for wiping the memory of civilians or even personnel who have seen things they shouldn't have. Comes in many varieties, at varying degrees of memory erasure.
Mnestics
Less well known than amnestics, mnestics were developed to counter their effects, and the effects of any mind-erasing anomalies. They restore memories that are being hidden.
Scranton Reality Anchor
An easy one. It's a device that sucks in reality from a dead universe, to counteract realitybending entities. Has a variant called a Scranton Reality Cannon that fires reality directly at realitybenders.
Kant Counter
Measures the Hume level in an area. Humes are basically a count of how "real" something is. Normal Hume levels should stay around 0 - 1. Get too low or too high and things start getting weird.
VERITAS
A device that measures the EVE emissions in an area. From what I understand, EVE is a unique type of energy produced by conscious beings, that can give you a full reading of their soul.
Telekill
An alloy in low supply, that can act as a shield for telekinetic or otherwise mind-affecting anomalies.
Ways
A method of opening wormholes to other locations, used by members of the Serpent's Hand. If I recall correctly, using a Way requires a pit-stop in the Grand Library.
Flow
The primeval force of creation that all anartists tap into when they get really into their work. Unlike normal artists, anartists can utilize this force directly to create objects and effects that would be impossible (or absurdly difficult) to produce by non-anomalous means.

Item #: SCP-XXXX1
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: The area in which SCP-XXXX was discovered has been excavated and relocated to Site 19. A cover story has been circulated claiming that the field of sunflowers had been possessed by unholy spirits, which were successfully exorcised.
SCP-XXXX is indefinitely contained at Site 19. Further study is ongoing.
The owners of the former McCaig Farms have been taken into Foundation custody following the events of the recovery of SCP-XXXX. A cover story has been circulated in Onida claiming that the McCaigs chose to move voluntarily due to paranoia caused by the event.
The region of Sully County, South Dakota is to be monitored for any further anomalous activity resembling the events associated with SCP-XXXX.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a patch of 37 sunflowers found in the sunflower fields of McCaig Farms near Onida, South Dakota. All sunflowers contained within SCP-XXXX are genetically and visually identical to non-anomalous sunflowers.
SCP-XXXX's anomalous property manifests within a radius of approximately 10 meters from the outermost sunflowers in SCP-XXXX. Any life entering this radius will cause the sunflowers to begin to produce unassisted vocalizations with no discernible cause.
The content of these vocalizations is most commonly described as "unintelligible wailing," though utterances of intelligible words and phrases have been observed.
Recovery: SCP-XXXX was discovered following reports of residents of Onida, South Dakota hearing far-off screams at all hours of the day. Residents had begun to believe that the wailing was caused by ghosts. To the Foundation's knowledge, these rumors, along with the McCaig Family's strict stance on trespassing, withheld any curious residents from investigating the source of the screams.
On 02/04/████, MTF Mu-13 ("Ghostbusters") was sent into Onida, South Dakota under the guise of being paranormal investigators sent to investigate the truth behind the ghosts of Onida's sunflower fields. Residents pointed the Foundation towards McCaig Farms, where SCP-XXXX was identified and contained following significant struggle from the McCaig Family.
Addendum XXXX-1: After the events of SCP-XXXX's recovery, the McCaig Family were admitted into Foundation custody. A number of interviews were conducted by Senior Researchers Dr. Ephret Souljourn and Dr. Lysandra Souljourn, recorded below.
Interviewer(s): Dr. Ephret Souljourn
Interviewed: Stanley McCaig<Begin Log>
Dr. E. Souljourn: Good morning, Mr. McCaig. I'm sure you know why you're here?
Stanley McCaig: No sir, I reckon I do not. Would you be so kind as to inform me?
Dr. E. Souljourn: You're here concerning reports of a "ghost" near your farm. My organization is a group of paranormal investigators who found and exorcised the spirits.
Stanley McCaig: You did what?
Dr. E. Souljourn: Exorcised them, sir. Your flowers are possessed no more.
Stanley McCaig: [covers his face with his hands] Aw, god. Edith didn't tell me nothing about an exorcism. They're really all gone?
Dr. E. Souljourn: Yes. They're gone, Mr. McCaig. Might I ask — why does it upset you so much that we got rid of those pesky spirits for you?
Stanley McCaig: Well, y'see… without them spirits, McCaig Farms will fail.
Dr. E. Souljourn: And why exactly is that?
Stanley McCaig: Them spirits were feeding the fields. But now they're gone, and the flowers ain't got any food left.
Dr. E. Souljourn: Very interesting. Well, Mr. McCaig, I think that concludes our interview for today.
Stanley McCaig: Wait, what've you done with the kids and the wife?
Dr. E. Souljourn: They're all fine, I assure you. We won't allow any member of your family to come to harm.
Stanley McCaig: Bless you, sir.
<End Log>
Interviewer(s): Dr. Lysandra Souljourn
Interviewed: Edith McCaig
<Begin Log>
Dr. L. Souljourn: Good morning, Mrs. McCaig. My name is Lysandra and I will be conducting this interview today.
Edith McCaig: Interview? I thought y'all was some paranormal investigators or something.
Dr. L. Souljourn: Yes, that is correct. We've taken care of the issue, and now we are conducting—
Edith McCaig: Hang on. What'd you just say?
Dr. L. Souljourn: We've taken care of the issue. The spirits haunting McCaig Farms were successfully exorcised.
Edith McCaig: [visibly pales] You didn't.
Dr. L. Souljourn: But we did. [tilts her head] May I ask why you seem so upset over that?
Edith McCaig: Upset, me? Nah, I'm not upset about nothing. [chuckles]
Dr. L. Souljourn: Your body language would suggest otherwise. It'd be helpful to us if you'd comply with the interview to the best of your ability, Mrs. McCaig.
Edith McCaig: Listen, missy. I don't know what's gotten into you and your group, thinking you can go around meddling in people's business all willy-nilly like that, but you've got yourself in over your head with this one.
Dr. L. Souljourn: And why is that, may I wonder?
Edith McCaig: Like I'd tell you. Just listen to me— if them spirits said anything to you, none of it was true, you got that?
Dr. L. Souljourn: Noted.
Edith McCaig: Anything else you'd like to ask while y'all are at it?
Dr. L. Souljourn: Is there anything else you'd like to tell us?
Edith McCaig: Nope.
Dr. L. Souljourn: Then that's settled. Interview concluded.

Interviewer(s): Dr. Ephret Souljourn, Dr. Lysandra Souljourn
Interviewed: Adrian McCaig, Andrea McCaig, Marcus McCaig
<Begin Log>
Dr. L. Souljourn: Good morning, kids. Did you rest well?
[The children of the McCaigs express varying levels of affirmation.]
Dr. L. Souljourn: Glad to hear it. My name is Lysandra, and I'd like to introduce you to my husband, Ephret.
Dr. E. Souljourn: [waves nervously] Um, hello.
Dr. L. Souljourn: We need to talk to you kids a little bit about the hauntings on your farm and how you feel about them. Is that okay with all of you?
Adrian McCaig: Uh, sure.
[The other two children nod their heads.]
Dr. L. Souljourn: Fantastic! So… Adrian, we'll start with you since you're the oldest.
Dr. E. Souljourn: Did you know about the rumors going around in Onida that your family's sunflower fields were haunted?
Adrian McCaig: [shakes his head] No sir. I was over in Agar.
Dr. L. Souljourn: Really? What were you doing over there?
Adrian McCaig: Well, I'm nearly a full grown adult so I asked ma and pa if I could find some work. They told me that our fields were good enough, but I always got the creeps from being out there, so I left for Agar and started working as the local grocer. Other than that, I ain't even heard of anything happening on our farms until this.
Dr. E. Souljourn: Do your parents often try to convince you all you should stay on the fields and help run the farm?
Andrea McCaig: Mommy says we ain't got enough money to hire enough farmhands to do it, and we're always producing so many sunflowers. They say we oughtta go out there and do our fair share, and I help out in the fields every now n' then but I get the creeps too.
Dr. L. Souljourn: I see. Do they make you work too, Marcus?
Marcus McCaig: [nods his head]
Adrian McCaig: He's always been a quiet one, don't mind him.
Dr. L. Souljourn: Noted.
Dr. E. Souljourn: Do you know why your parents were always so adamant about you working on the fields?
Adrian McCaig: Well, it's family tradition, isn't it? You're s'posed to inherit the farm and all that. Keep things running smoothly.
Andrea McCaig: Plus, ma and pa always said if we didn't work this farm then what would this good county even have to live up to? They always said things about how South Dakota's the biggest producer of sunflowers, and we oughtta keep our position.
Dr. L. Souljourn: Very interesting. If that's all, then we'll move on.
[Andrea McCaig nods her head.]
Dr. L. Souljourn: Concerning the hauntings… our group consists of paranormal investigators who heard rumors that there were ghosts in Onida. That piqued our interest and me and my husband here, along with our crew, came out and investigated.
Dr. E. Souljourn: We ended up finding a patch of sunflowers in your family's farm that were haunted, and we successfully exorcised the spirits.
Andrea McCaig: Come to think of it, there was always a part of our field ma and pa wouldn't let us near…
Adrian McCaig: Lord, I didn't know nothing like that was happening down there. Did them spirits hurt anybody?
Dr. E. Souljourn: Not to our knowl—
Marcus McCaig: Why?!
Dr. L. Souljourn: Pardon?
Marcus McCaig: [begins crying] Why did you have to go and exorcise them? Now ma and pa are gonna— they're gonna—
Dr. L. Souljourn: Calm down, sweetie. What are they gonna do?
Marcus McCaig: [sniffles] They told me that I was never s'posed to tell anyone. I found those sunflowers cause I didn't listen to ma and pa when they told me not to go near them, and they told me after that… they told me I better keep quiet.
Dr. E. Souljourn: What did you see?
Marcus McCaig: No! If they found out I told, they'd—
Dr. L. Souljourn: We'll make sure they don't hurt you, Marcus.
Marcus McCaig: …You promise?
Dr. L. Souljourn: Promise. Our best interest is your safety, and if you could tell us what you saw it would help us keep you safe.
Marcus McCaig: Okay. When I got near the sunflowers… they started wailing like mad. I couldn't understand what they said for a while, but eventually I started picking up snippets of what they was saying.
[Dr. E. Souljourn takes out a notepad and a pen.]
Marcus McCaig: It was awful… they were all crying things like "Oh god, don't hurt me!" or like "Wait! I have a wife and kids!"
Dr. L. Souljourn: Do you have any idea why they'd be saying things like that?
Marcus McCaig: [shakes his head] No, no. Right after that is when ma and pa found me and they were really mad about it. I been too scared to talk about it since.
Dr. L. Souljourn: Well, I'm glad you managed to get it out. This information will be very useful to us.
Dr. E. Souljourn: Do you kids know about anything else you could tell us?
Adrian McCaig: I don't reckon so.
Dr. E. Souljourn: Then we'll call it a day.
Dr. L. Souljourn: Thank you for all of your help. We promise we'll get this sorted out and none of you are going to get hurt. Have a good night, you three.
<End Log>
Note: I'll be filing a request to have these children relocated into safer homes. I've asked Ephret to deny any request to neutralize the sunflowers. This story warrants further study into the agricultural practices of South Dakota and other Midwestern states.
— Dr. Lysandra Souljourn, Senior Researcher
Followup: On 02/07/████ the Ethics Committee filed a request to completely exorcise the ghosts contained within the sunflowers associated with SCP-XXXX. This request was denied in favor of further study. However, the families of the missing persons who could be identified were contacted and provided with notices that they had died.
Stanley and Edith McCaig were submitted into police custody and tried for serial murder. The McCaig children were amnesticized and inserted into new families without issue.
A condition like epilepsy/narcolepsy that causes spontaneous seizures resulting in bursts of uncontrolled magic. I will be making a SCP and/or tale (series?) about a hexaleptic thaumaturge named Catorsia. Now I need to read more about thaumaturgy on the SCP site.
Catorsia will probably be a character somewhat like Rincewind. Where Rincewind is a bad wizard not because he doesn't try but because he is physically unable to due to having his mind locked up by one of the spells of creation, Catorsia is a bad thaumaturge because they can't control their magic without great effort.
Going off of the idea of Discworld spells, the equivalent of what is happening to Catorsia would be that they get so excited about magic that they kick spells out of their mind before they've even had time to get all of their things in order, resulting in bursts of wild magic.

Backstory:
An anomalously advanced ant colony that mimics Foundation affairs. They contain whatever ants find anomalous. Some of the items they contained are actually anomalous and pretty decent threats, so the SCP Foundation contacts them and incorporates them into their workforce, becoming a new department.
The ant Foundation has a polygynous colony, meaning that there are multiple queens who are tolerated by the ordinary ants. The multiple ant queens hold several debates and votes; the ant Foundation has its own Overseers.
The ants communicate through pheromones like normal, but they do have very simplistic documentation marked somewhere for their anomalies. Probably just scratch marks that signify different things. The Foundation translates the ant pheromones to rough approximations of English to communicate with them, and uses ant pheromones to communicate back.
Probably at some point, the Foundation invests in a project to make communication with the ant Foundation easier. Like whatever technology they put into Leslie that let her speak and understand English.

Full title: Somebody Once Told Me The World Was Macaroni
An SCP about an entire universe contained in a bowl of dry macaroni. Using it to make macaroni art causes one to create pictographic depictions of snippets of the stories of this universe.
A sort-of reprisal of Meredith the Dreamer.
It's basically just a spell jamming helm from Spelljammer. It has a living helm which is a sleeping girl who documentation found aboard the ship says is named Meredith. Her function is to dream and the ship takes her and its crew to wherever she's dreaming about, operating off the assumption that everything you can imagine is real somewhere.
The crew is now deceased and Meredith is all that's left, dreaming and unconsciously traveling the multiverse.
An otherwise ordinary human who exerts an infohazardous effect on everyone who knows about them. Learning about this person will cause you to adopt their mannerisms and be overwhelmed by a curiosity to know more about them, looking into every detail of their life and incorporating more of them into yourself, taking on mannerisms that appear stalker-ish from the outside. It is important to note that it is not necessarily a compulsory effect. You can stop the process at any time, but it will take quite a bit to get the curiosity out of your system and the parts of that person you had already incorporated into yourself will never leave you.
The final stage of the effect results in someone becoming an identical copy of this infohazardous person and exerting the same effect on anyone who knows about them. Looking into the infected person's life will cause their life and the original anomaly's lives to intersect at a certain point and seemingly become one and the same. All information about the original anomaly will be updated to reflect information found in the life of the infected subject, creating a legend of one person who has done much more than any ordinary person could have done in a lifetime — thereby sparking even further curiosity in people that wish to learn about them.

Special Containment Procedures:
Description:
Name subject to change.
The anomaly is the documentation concerning the death of an individual known as Viridian. Viridian has attempted to go against fate. Fate is pre-written, but what if you find your pre-written fate and try to change it? This anomaly witnesses Viridian's vain attempt at crawling to salvation, fighting through multiple splits and iterations in the narrative concerning the circumstances of their death, and it eventually culminates in nothing as Viridian realizes that no matter what, they simply cannot change fate. Giving up, they succumb to the tides of destiny and write in their true fate, the one they were trying to avoid all along, and the reality is decided.
The story is told solely through the Foundation's recording of the iterations of the documentation concerning their death.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: ~~Euclid~~ Neutralized
Special Containment Procedures:
Description:
SCP-XXXX is the documentation concerning the death of an otherwise non-anomalous individual by the name of Kay Viridian. Of note is the fact that all personal information and all other public records related to this individual are non-existent.
SCP-XXXX came to the Foundation's attention on 03/29/[YEAR], following… something
writing is hard
lesbian bug love story
bee n ant girls
Something SCP related about my meta idol girls.
An SCP about futility and infinity. Not very sure where I want to go with this yet, but it's definitely going to be very surreal. "The Wheel" in this case could refer to the wheels of normalcy turning, and how The Foundation is responsible for keeping The Wheel turning and containing all anomalies. This could make an SCP-001 proposal and perhaps part of the Broken Masquerade. The part about it crushing you to death refers to the Foundation's failure to keep the wheel turning and as a result, the anomalous becomes normal.
I sort of want "The Wheel" to be a literal metaphysical concept in the noosphere or some shit that the Foundation has to maintain forever, but their efforts are futile and are only staving off the inevitable. An exercise in futility.
The Wheel could be a transformation of The Author from my Compendium framework thingamajiggy. It's a turning wheel that produces an infinite downpour of narrative ideas that the Foundation's pataphysics department has to monitor and determine which get to be real and considered part of the normal world and which must be anomalous. and maybe even, which get to exist at all.
All concepts associated with wheels:
- Cycles
- Repetition
- Law (dharma), such as the duties, rights, laws, conduct, and virtues that maintain the right way of living. Also known as cosmic law and order.
- Innovation, progress
It could be that "The Wheel" refers to the collective metaphysical concept of wheels in general, all coming together to form a gestalt that pushes forwards human progress and maintains the narrative cycle of the universe. If The Foundation fails to maintain the wheel, human progress will come to an abrupt halt and the narrative cycle will spin out of control.
Failure to maintain The Wheel would be defined as a massive failure of the concept of dharma, destroying the concepts of morality. This would be defying God and acting in direct opposition to humanity rather than in service to them.
This is a really big thing to write. I have no idea how I'm going to do this.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is a fucking WHEEL and I cannot think because everyone in this hellish class is so loud I want to die. Jargon jargon jargon jargon what the fuck do most of these words even mean.
Description: SCP-XXXX is an infohazardous gestalt thought-based entity originating from the Noosphere, composed of the summation of all concepts related to the idea of a wheel. SCP-XXXX appears to be intrinsically connected to the concepts of universal cycles, dharma, and human progress. Through means not currently understood, this entity utilizes these concepts to maintain a vast degree of control over narrative causality and poses a massive pataphysical threat to Baseline reality.
Individuals who become aware of SCP-XXXX's existence perceive the gestalt entity as slowly "turning" in an Each turn of SCP-XXXX currently represents a narrative cycle upheld by The Foundation's Pataphysics Department, referred to as Procedure XXXX-Sisyphus. The completion of this procedure secures the perpetuation of Baseline reality and Foundation affairs.
Alternate names: Keepers of the Turning Wheel, "Lemies" (known as such by The Foundation and other opposing GoIs)
A religion based upon belief in the gestalt of The Wheel and the perpetuation of cycles, believing heavily in predetermined fate and destiny. They also believe in progress above all else, and think that all who stand in the way of progress deserve to be flattened by The Wheel, making them allies with GoIs like MC&D and Prometheus, probably.
Currently, their deity is in Foundation custody and is being maintained by the Foundation's Pataphysics Department who have identified The Wheel as a pataphysical threat. The Wheel gave followers of Lemniscology an unprecedented degree of control over the narrative of life, making a good deal of them realitybenders. They choose to use their realitybending powers nowadays to maintain the cycles of reality and punish anyone who tries to go against them, including people who try to go against fate.
The Lemniscologists main goal is to secure The Wheel and wrest it back from Foundation control. They hope to use The Wheel to create a "perfect world" in which nothing changes and everything goes according to plan.
Ideas to connect to Lemniscology:
The Wheel Is Turning Forever (SCP) Their deity.
The Tunnels (SCP) Perhaps the tunnels have connections to fate? Maybe they are the afterlife. I don't know!
Perhaps Cold and Unforgiving (SCP) was caused by a Lemniscologist seeking to reverse global warming.
A lot of Lemniscologists are well versed in realitybending and anart and they associate heavily with extradimensional and non-Euclidean spaces, particularly the kind that cause you to keep circling back around to where you started.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: It doesn't matter.
Special Containment Procedures: There is no point. There's nothing we can do. We are only staving off the inevitable by continuing to uphold our beliefs. The supply is never-ending, and we are few when compared to them all. The anomalies that we contain here will escape time and time again. And we will secure them, we will contain them, and we will "protect" them time and time again. What for? Why do we secure them? Why do we contain them? What are we protecting them from? Or is it us who needs the protecting? There's no escape. It's all an exercise in futility.
Description:
When I joined The Foundation, I wanted to save the world. I wanted to apply myself in my field, and see all the good I could bring to mankind. Instead, I got cooped up in a laboratory, given a supply of death-row prisoners to work with, and was set to work researching and documenting these "anomalies," impossibilities that often defy the laws of natural science. At first, I was excited, but my excitement quickly died as I began to notice a pattern.
Everything we contain here at The Foundation is determined to defy our expectations. You never know what you're going to get, but by God will it be dangerous. We contain more things than I can count that could end the entire world, the entire universe even, in the mere blink of an eye. That sounds scary enough, important enough to work on, until you consider what most of them actually are.
We get things as dumb as replicating cakes, or even potatoes, that could fill the entire universe and suffocate all life. We get things like bug eggs shaped like candies that hatch in water and transform the nearest living material into candy. We get things that cannot even be explained, things that only exist in thought but still hold an alarming degree of control over reality and for whatever reason they may be able to find, wish to end it or use it to further their own means.
We contain literal Gods. Plural. And we contain harmless masses of orange slime. We create some anomalies of our own, because we're just not satisfied with what we can contain, and when they act against our will we contain them again. We contain bugs that developed sentience and found true love. We contain drawings that came to life.
I've been going on a bit of a tangent, but the point is: why the hell do we contain most of these things? Why us? Why that? I wanted to save the world from the real threats. Instead, all I get here is a mockery. The supply of anomalies is never-ending, and each one is more contrived than the last.
We're fighting an uphill battle.
If there was a God — a real God, not one of the ones we contained — I hope that they hate us. I hope that they despise us and that this is all just a game to them. Because if they didn't, my anger towards them would be unfounded. If you're seeing this, God, I have only one question to ask of you:
Are we a joke to you?
An SCP based off my text-adventure game that I was making in about 2016.
Research more about the Fey in SCP lore
Five fairies in a trenchcoat that are using some sort of compulsion or memetic agent to get people to believe they are one normal non-anomalous person. I don't know why they are doing this, but it's probably in an effort to spy on humans or gain a degree of control over them by masquerading as one of them. Maybe this fairy-gestalt-person is a politician.
Brainstorming:
You can infect other people and make it so that they also refer to everything that can be with the second person "you?" viral memes that get out of hand very quickly always make for interesting brain-hurting stories.
so You are hostile to the foundation i suppose, and actively avoids containment. now i guess what ive gotta figure out is to what end do You want to infect the entire world and destroy the existence of the first and third person?
maybe the anomaly is just like, the concept of the second person carried on a viral meme, and it's jealous of first and third person because they are used much more often, especially in writing.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures:
Description: SCP-XXXX refers to (a location, either the outpost set up at The South Pole, or Ellesmere Island)
When i get around to actually writing this shit, SCP-XXXX will be a spherical region that is Fairly Large in size. inside of it are a number of animals and people all centered around one woman at the center of the sphere. the sphere is Very cold, with surface temperatures almost reaching 0 K and an unknown core temperature. the sphere is getting Colder by the year, and as it gets colder so too do the ice shelves of Antarctica or wherever the fuck it is expand.
this was how it was first discovered and the foundation had to amnesticize all the antarctic researchers and prevent newspapers from publishing anything about it back in like the 50s or some shit. the effects of global warming have been increasing and have been melting the antarctic ice shelves further, but its expected that sometime soon SCP-XXXX will decrease in temperature again, increasing the ice shelves once more.
SCP-XXXX is completely immune to all attempts to alter its temperature and it is difficult to drill inside of it, but drilling efforts to measure the core temperature carried on anyways. one of these drilling efforts resulted in a catastrophe where the anomaly suddenly froze the hole behind them and trapped the drillers inside of the sphere, where they are now presumably dead. after this, drilling efforts have been forbidden.
also, SCP-XXXX has a legend or something surrounding it. i dont know where the foundation foudn it but i want them to find a legend citing the last few lines of my tale "The Last Stake of Winter" that i put up on the compendium since i just dont think that will work on the SCP site.
some sort of calculations done on the rate at which SCP-XXXX's surface temperature drops and how much the ice shelves expand by shows that in a number of years that are not too far off the surface temperature will drop enough to cause the antarctic to expand so vastly it causes another ice age
Addendum XXXX-1:
This specific tab has a lot of very vague brainstorming ideas.
Actual ideas are contained in separate tabs on this tabview, or in the junkyards here.
"I knew you would be here on the day of my murder." something to do with time travel maybe?
"Everyone in California suffered spontaneous cardiac arrest upon their arrival."
"Hope you're doing well on this god forsaken day."
- An SCP where an abstract entity that eats music contacts our world, requesting for negotiations to be made with "The King of Music" or else there would be war. It is discovered that the King of Music this entity refers to is none other than the late Michael Jackson, and the Foundation has to explain the concept of mortality to them. This does not sate them, however, and the Foundation must now figure out how to appoint, denominate, or otherwise decide upon a new King of Music as an Ambassador of Earth so that peaceful negotiations with this entity can be made. It is possible that the entity might hold power over all artistic concepts and threatens to destroy all artistry and imagination if an error in the direction of music is not repaired.
- Turn phrase "Death of the Author" into an SCP
"Death of the Author is a concept from mid-20th Century literary criticism; it holds that an author's intentions and biographical facts (the author's politics, religion, etc) should hold no special weight in determining an interpretation of their writing."
- "Cationic Tonic"
- An anartist made an hourglass that controls the lifespan of it's holder. When a new hand touches it, the sand shifts to represent how long they have lived for, and they can manipulate their lifespan at will by turning the hourglass.
- An SCP that is an alien ship disguising as a Cumulus cloud. Alternatively; the rain is actually an alien species trying to launch an invasion on Earth with little success. The smell that happens before it rains is the use of their chemical weapons. Floods are their most successful attacks. The water cycle is them moving troops. As a consequence of their nature as sentient water droplets, a Large number of them have ended up in Earth's natural water and in the bodies of humans.
- A Twister game that allows you to contort your body in physically impossible ways. While on the board you feel no adverse effects but if you get pushed off the board while you're all contorted then suddenly physics kicks in and you die. Possibly made by Wondertainment.
- Hysteric Train. A ghost train filled with corpses that causes immense panic in anybody in a certain radius of it. Instant death via shock can occur if you see the train directly.
- A City Built Upon A Dead God. Stealing an idea straight from DND's astral plane; a floating dead god's corpse with a city built upon it, found somewhere in space.
- A SCP based on Loop Them Loop
- An SCP that's using the Chernobyl Disaster as a coverup for containment. Maybe the whole thing was faked to contain something dangerous in the area.
Great Big Nothing In The Middle Of My Heart:
A story about someone who gets their heart broken so thoroughly that they now have a Great Big Nothing in the middle of their heart.
And Then I Died:
I want to write one about 3797, The Once and Future Gun. But the current ATID is series 2 SCPs only.
Slipping Through The Cracks
[[collapsible show="Preliminary thinking" hide="?!@?#$/3$34k43rr?RE?erjierer"]]
I want to write a tale about someone named Tora Dempsey assuming the identity of a researcher named Phrona Darnell and successfully breaching every layer of security in the Foundation through social engineering. I must make sure to make it as believable as it can be.
What I need to think about:
Tora's motivations
Tora's methods
Where everyone important to security was and what they were doing
A list of ideas I thought were neat, generated here.
Many of these will probably be combined into one.
- An article that explores Prometheus Labs, Inc. and fundamentalism. The article should evoke wariness.
- An article involving Prometheus Labs, Inc. that explains those bruises you don't remember getting. The article should evoke sorrow.
- An article that explores the breakdown of society and Are We Cool Yet?. The article should explore worshipfulness.
- An article that explores immortality and morality. The article should convey masochism.
- An article that explores retail and Prometheus Labs, Inc.. The article should explore surreality.
- An article that explores the inability to trust one's senses and self-loathing. The article should evoke homelessness.
- An article that explores astral projection and the link between alternate history and karma. The article should convey skill.
- An article about a bacterium that makes you experience a sense of dissociation. The article should evoke inevitability.
- An article that explores the link between black holes and abduction and ley lines. The article should convey uncertainty.
- An article that explores the link between fungi and mutants and mind control. The article should convey sadness.
- An article about a party during which the participants experience an anomalous desire to claim everything. The article should convey wealth.
- An article about a hospital appointment during which the participants experience an anomalous desire to contain people. The article should convey thirst.
- An article about an interview between a cat and a human that's anomalously inquisitive. The article should evoke power. An article about a cat that's anomalously dark. The article should explore whimsy. (An interview with some sort of God contained in a cat form? The cat form is like solid black and void-like. Voidcat. Maybe implied that the God is not contained in the cat at all, and the cat is just biding its time. Why bother killing all humans when they think you're so cute and feed you and give you pets?)
- An article about a carnival during which a participant is compelled to feed. The article should convey hatred. (An anomalous chemical that heavily increases peoples appetite, to increase the sale of carnival food, gets way out of hand. Someone starts eating people.)
- An article about some tissues that make you explode. The article should convey intimacy. (o-orgasm tissues. you know like that saying thats like "if you sneeze during sex you'll cum instantly"? these tissues make you cum instantly if you sneeze into them.)
- An article about a rope that seeks surprise. The article should convey uncertainty. (A sentient rope that tries to hang people. Might be better suited as an anomalous item than a full SCP.)
- An article involving the Manna Charitable Foundation that explains the Moon landings. The article should evoke poverty. (I don't know anything about MCF but maybe they donated to the US gov during the space race?)
- An article about an experiment during which the participants are compelled to care. The article should explore sadism. (Idk yet but I like the irony.)
Also wanna get into GAW someday.
- Reprise Spicy Jim's Spicy Gym. This time it doesn't have anything to do with restaurants and everything including Jim in this gym turns into pure capsaicin over time.
- Reprise The Hand That Can (from old sandbox)
- SCP-9771900-J: A joke SCP based on that Lerner & Rowe commercial
- "*dies*" an SCP created by Gamers Against Weed that makes every action expressed inside *'s become literal, altering reality to fit. the name is chosen because the anomaly became a threat when people started dying from joking about dying through roleplay actions. you can avoid the effects of the anomaly if you use dashes instead of asterisks, or some other means of signifying a roleplay action.
- Gal Gun: an SCP made by a big incel in GAW who wanted to create a device that spawned GFs into existence. Probably has a dark twist.
- I wanna be a real boy! — the quest of a puppet / dream to replace its creators life and become real.
- "Human Engineering" An SCP about a company that is focused on innovation of the human body and stepping towards "the next step in human evolution." Possibly other-universal and has very weird ideas about what a human is or should be. Contained due to a leak into our universe and humans applying for the operations and causing public concern with the results. (Will be from GAW — maybe an otheruniversal version of GAW that has more resources? Because these fuckers love to make puns)
- They Don't Love You Like I Do — a real life yandere GF with anomalous abilities. run, run fast, and run far, but you'll never be able to escape her wrath love.
An anomaly who is an Old Testament style angel that believes themselves to be a normal non-anomalous human. They're very internet famous and in reality have a huge cult formed around them. They hang out with friends online and post selfies and engage in all sorts of activities that a regular internet famous person would, except for the fact that they Are in fact an angel and looking at them or hearing them speak drives people insane. They are completely deluded into believing they are normal, and its up to the Foundation and the Ethics Committee to figure out how to A) prevent them and their cult from causing any more harm and B) keep them happy and oblivious so that they don't fucking end the world or some shit.
Information
Angel Name: Nasargiel
Person Name: Nancy Sarva Giellan
Online Screenname: littlemissbeautiful
Online Deluded Appearance and Age: They believe themselves to be a 19 year old blonde woman with white skin and blue eyes, leaning on the curvy side, who lives in Mississippi.
Nature of Posts: They post selfies, engage in fandom content and discourse, and draw art.
Name of Cult:
Including this here cause I also wanna kinda get into this GoI later.
Ideas:
- Something called "Sonata in Blue." related to the Blue in thaumaturgy
- idea for a superpower or anomalous ability maybe something that like a Serpent's Hand member could use. a portable Way? maybe made in collaboration with MC&D.
it gives you the ability to walk through any doorway and exit out of any other doorway in the multiverse provided that you know where it is, but you don't necessarily have to have been there already. maybe it has a randomization feature installed by MC&D that lets you walk to any random doorway in the multiverse but this feature has proved to be very dangerous.
I had the thought that maybe I could write horror stories by writing about the things that most viscerally horrify me, personally. It's going to be awful.
A viscerally horrifying anomaly that involves mental suggestion to get depressed people who feel like they have no purpose left in life to join a mass of flesh.
The mass is controlled by one central mind that can emerge from the mass and lure new members in. This mind takes the appearance of someone who the prey would find themselves most compelled to listen to, someone intimidating and demanding of respect who looks like they know what they're talking about.
Once the prey has been convinced, the central mind takes them and tears them apart, interconnecting their veins, arteries, and connective tissues and sacs into the rest of the mass.
What the purpose of this mass is is yet unknown to me.
Some horrifying lines:
"What is a human being anyways, if not for a useless collection of tubes and sacs? What are you even using all of those for? You could be putting them towards something greater."
"You always wanted to be part of something big, didn't you? Now you can be part of something huge."
"Take my hand, and I'll tear you apart."
Large humanoid beings that are born from dying stars, eat vast amounts of cosmic debris, and become foodbaby pregnant with planets.
An ambitious idea for a series of stories / SCPs about a man who is inspired by the story of a brilliant scientist who unfortunately never completed his work and disappeared in mysterious circumstances.
The man becomes a temporal scientist and plans to go back in time to aid his idol, but soon realizes that he must become his idol. The story is about how he in a very roundabout way inspired himself and how he creates the story of a man who never existed. But where did the idea for the original man come from in the first place?
This is just a tab with codes in them for me because wikidot's formatting is confusing
Insert this at the bottom of first tale.
« Hub | (Next Tale) »
Insert this at the bottom of every subsequent tale.
« (Last Tale) | Hub) »
if there's no more tales at the end of it
« (Last Tale) | Hub | (Next Tale) »
if there is a next tale
thanks to aismallard for this code i found on their sandbox

An overview of my SCPverse characters, and the anomalies they have studied.
These are a little weird right now because most of them are unfilled so the quote blocks are different sizes. But when they're done they should all look right.
[DATA EXPUNGED]
Name: Lysandra Nguyen Souljourn
Security Clearance Level: 4
Occupation: Site Director and Senior Researcher specializing in parapsychology, cryptozoology, and metaphysics.
Ethnicity: Vietnamese-American
Physical Description: Height of 5' 6. Brown eyes, tan skin, youthful face. Straight, mid-length black hair. Needs glasses.
Biography: The date of Dr. L. Souljourn's birth is a well-kept secret, that when pried into is often met with the answer "Never ask a woman's age." Dr. L. Souljourn keeps most of her private information to herself, and has requested that the details of her life before joining the Foundation not be discussed or looked into.
When she first joined the Foundation, Dr. L. Souljourn was a Junior Researcher with knowledge of parapsychology and a cursory interest in other fields such as cryptozoology and metaphysics. She was obsessed with understanding the workings of the human mind and how paranormal events can act upon it. As soon as she learned about the existence of the many mind-affecting anomalies the Foundation contains, she immediately became interested in studying some of her own.
Dr. L. Souljourn met her husband, Dr. E. Souljourn, during her training as a Junior Researcher. The two discovered that their interests aligned and over the course of a few months began to fancy one another, until eventually they began to date and after years, married. Dr. L. Souljourn has stated that she appreciates the presence of her husband as he helps to keep her in check.
Dr. L. Souljourn's first assignment was SCP-████, a device created by Dr. Wondertainment seemingly for the purpose of marketing towards kids who had imaginary friends. It was discovered that this device actually created an entity with its own thoughts and free will within the mind of any user of the device, known as a tulpa. This tulpa was obsessed with adhering to any child's idea of what their imaginary friend should be. Dr. L. Souljourn became exposed to the anomaly during testing, and gained a tulpa of her own, which she has stated is named "Viridian."
Dr. L. Souljourn and her husband started the unofficial Parapsychology Division in 1998, a collection of researchers interested in the occult and the parapsychological. Since their founding, the division has acquired a total of six members, not including Dr. L. Souljourn and her husband, and they continue to study and contain several anomalies that threaten the normal thought processes of mankind as a whole.
