Item #: SCP-xxxx

Object class: Eulicid

Containment procedures:

Description: SCP-xxxx is a room measuring approximately 3m x 4m x 4m room composed of multiple mixed metal alloys. Spectroscopy of excreted metal from its multiple pore-like structures reveals a composition of 78% stainless steel, 11% tin, 6% copper, and 3% zinc. The room has no windows and a single door of the same composition with a deadbolt lock on its handle with a key permanently stuck in the lock on the outside face of the door.

The anomalous properties of SCP-xxxx are revealed when an object (organic or non-organic) is placed inside and the door locked. Approximately 10 minutes after the door is locked with material inside. Noises akin to a cyclone or hurricane are heard accompanied by loud banging from the inside of the room. In approximately 10 more minutes after these sounds are heard the banging with stop as room depending on the size of the object or objects placed inside grows in a ratio according to its original size. Upon opening after the room has grown the object or objects will be missing from its place. It is predicted that the room melts down material inside in order to grow in size; this was confirmed when the door was unlocked and opened before the process was complete, when d-class personnel d-11453 was sent to investigate that the object was missing from its place and appeared to be partially melted. When told to physically touch the object, d-11453 was hesitant before he was motivated with threat of termination if he did not comply. It was confirmed to be in the state of melting when d-11453 touched the object only reel back from burn. The burn observed on d-11453 was observed to be a second degree burn. D-11453 later made a full recovery and was assigned to a different SCP.

Further analysis of SCP-xxxx’s properties has revealed its processes. When SCP-xxxx is left unobserved by an organic entity, the air inside SCP-xxxx rapidly heats up, the rapid intense heat change in SCP-xxxx causes a miniature hurricane to form tossing about materials inside until their chemical compositions is melted down and repurposed on an atomic scale into various metals that are then added to the room. The energy exerted from breaking apart these atomic bonds is also predicted how it is able to power itself without an obvious source of energy, this is further suggested due to the walls and roof of the SCP being quite moderate even after a completed process. When an organic entity observed the room from the inside, a reverse process happens. The room begins to rapidly cool forming a cyclone inside due to rapid change in temperature. The room then begins to shrink at a consistent rate, expelling extra material in liquid form through its pores. This liquid was collected and used to perform the spectroscopy. The room will continue to shrink until one or more of the conditions are met: A) the door is unlocked, causing the room to immediately cease its process. B) The room reaches a critical size of 1.5m x 2m x 2m. Or C) the organic material is ripped apart by the cyclone until it can no longer view the room, causing it to heat up.

SCP-xxxx was contained at university [REDACTED] on [DATA EXPUNGED]/[DATA EXPUNGED]/2020. The SCP foundation was notified of the discovery of SCP-xxxx shortly after the reported disappearance of 4 Professors at the university. MTF Rho-1(“The Professors”) was then dispatched to Investigate. Colleagues of these professors were interviewed before being given Class B amnestics and implanted with false memories of their Colleagues looking for employment elsewhere. Class C amnestics were given to family of these missing professors after being interviewed, Family was then implanted false memories of having no connection to these professors biologically or mutually. Any students studying under the four professors were reassigned to another class under the guise of their professor’s early retirement.

Still to this day, none of the reported fours missing professors we're found and interviews proved to be unhelpful in the location or situation of the missing professors, rather the bulk of the recorded occurrence at University [REDACTED] originates from a single security camera located in the lab of professor [REDACTED] who, according to several interviews of University staff, was frustrated by a student's comment ”to do something interesting for once”. The student who reportedly made the comment remains unknown. This is predicted to be Professor [REDACTED]’s motivation for the creation of SCP-xxxx. From Security camera footage obtained from the lab, it can be presumed that Professor [REDACTED] had also enlisted two other professors. With one other Professor working in a nearby lab.

Foreword: [Footage taken from security camera in Professor[REDACTED]’s lab on the reported day before the four professors went missing. According to the footage timestamp, the footage is taken after school. For clarity, the three professors will be dubbed as so: P-1, the owner of the lab and has a masters degree in Meteorology, p-2 has a bachelor degree in molecular physics, p-3 has a bachelor’s degree in industrial and mechanical engineering, p-4 has a Ph.D. in Meteorology.]

<Begin Log,>

[P-1, p-2, p-3 stand before SCP-xxxx admiring it, p-4 can be heard working nearby. P-2 places a coffee mug inside before leaving, closing, and locking the door. Loud swirling winds pick up seeming to originate from SCP-xxxx, obscuring p-1, p-2, and p-3’s celebration.]

[Several minutes pass before liquid metal begins to be excreted from SCP-xxxx’s pores, p-3 can be seen making gestures towards it in attempts to explain it over the noise coming from SCP-xxxx. Approximately seven minutes after SCP-xxxx was activated p-3 walks towards the door of SCP-xxxx, unlocks, and opens it. Shortly after this the machine halts and the noise begins to die down. P-3 can then be seen returning with a slightly chipped coffee mug mostly intact and the three professors begin an audible celebration once more. P-4 walks in and a conversation begins.

P-4: [What is that racket?]

Closing Statement: [Small summary and passage on what transpired afterward]
