Item #: SCP-XXXX

Anomaly Level: Euclid (Safe) Neutralized

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a standard humanoid containment, and should be monitored 24/7 with two heavily armed agents stationed near its containment. SCP-XXXX is to be treated carefully and respectfully and all loud noises or aggressive actions are prohibited if SCP-XXXX is nearby. SCP-XXXX is to have standard weekly therapy and to have the equivalent of 5000-7500 calories a day. If the Specimen gets aggressive or anxious all authorized personnel are to 'comfort' the Specimen.

SCP-XXXX is allowed a monthly visit to its wife and daughter, under the supervision of the Foundation. SCP-XXXX is allowed to have mourning prayers (See Addendum.)

In a worst case scenario, all Foundation personnel are allowed to terminate SCP-XXXX, but it should be noted that it may be difficult to do so with its military training and unique anomalous abilities.

Containment of SCP-XXXX is no longer required.

Description: SCP-XXXX, also known as Lieutenant Arthur Larsen, is an anomalous human appearing to be of Caucasian and Algonquin descent and appears late 30s to early 40s. Approximately 6'3 in height and weighing around 232 pounds. The specimen has medium length hair regularly kept in a ponytail or bun, it also contains several tattoos of Algonquin origins. The specimen holds a similar psychological profile of the average male American and a veteran but also suffers from PTSD and Psychosis (See Addendum.) Despite the mental disorders the Specimen suffers from, it is generally friendly and has several lasting friendship with site personnel, mostly with Foundation Guards - it is recommended that such friendships should be maintained, despite Foundation policy. SCP-XXXX appears to be religious, yet this could be a tradition from its Algonquin heritage. The Specimen has both a wife and daughter, its wife is Doctor Amelia Larsen, one of the Foundation's top researchers, their daughter is Sophitia Larsen (she shows no sign of anomalous abilities, yet).

SCP-XXXX was a United States Navy SEAL and part of the CIA before the Foundation contained it. The Foundation first noted the existence of SCP-XXXX during operation-██████ which saw SCP-████ used as in a live test, approved by O5 Command. This operation was covered up as a failed American Raid and all soldiers were thought to be dead. SCP-XXXX was later found out to be alive from the event, and would later get an honourable discharge and a medal of honour. Several Foundation Task Forces were sent to terminate SCP-XXXX which failed and saw several agents killed in action, with video feed showing its anomalous abilities. After the incident, SCP-XXXX fell off the grid.

The Foundation was able to secure and contain SCP-XXXX after it made contact with Doctor Amelia Larsen. SCP-XXXX did not resist containment and complied with every order given to it. During containment of the Specimen, we were able to determine the nature of the anomalous abilities to a degree. SCP-XXXX posses the strength to bend steel, and lift weights comparable to M26 Pershing Tank, well beyond human capability. SCP-XXXX shows a high degree all forms of damage resistance, as seen upon Foundation Agent's attempts to terminate the Specimen, it was able to survive a point blank .50 Calibur shot from a 50 BMG Rifle, although fire seems to be effective against the Specimen. Most peculiarly are SCP-XXXX's regenerative ability, with it being able to grow missing limbs within a matter of weeks.

SCP-XXXX holds some form of telepathy, this appears to be a subconscious condition, as SCP-XXXX is unable to control it, to a degree. Researchers and staff describe the feeling of apathy or sorrow whenever they near SCP-XXXX and claim to hear its cries and screams along with distant gunfire and deaf yelling. As a side effect of the metal disorders SCP-XXXX suffers from, its telepathic 'screams' are able to cause brain trauma and mental disorders, and on one case, even cause a researcher to become brain dead. The Foundation has since allowed for SCP-XXXX to have therapy sessions to treat the mental disorders (see addendum.)

Another peculiar anomaly SCP-XXXX is its ability to manipulate all Earthly elements (fire, water, air, ground etc) and to a much lesser extent cosmic elements (spacial, time, reality). On several occasions, SCP-XXXX has lashed out due to its mental disorders causing several fires, water leaks/flooding, and on race occasions earthquakes. SCP-XXXX has proven to be able to manipulate late local spatial areas, as it once caused a researcher to run in circles for its own amusement due to being heavily drunk (note: it is no longer permitted to have drinks. And who the hell allowed it to have drinks!), it has also shown its ability to form solid objects from thin air, such as beer (note: SCP-XXXX is to be monitored for any case of it smuggling, or creating, ANY alcoholic beverages, and any alcoholic beverages are to be confiscated). Its ability to manipulate time is merely a hypothesis, as several researchers and staff claimed they documented something or thought they forgot something, and commonly within the vicinity of SCP-XXXX. The degree of these anomalous abilities is unknown and is advised to have further testing done.

Upon researching the origins of these anomalous abilities the Foundation has found its source of the anomaly. A metaphysical or spiritual parasitic entity, officially dubbed SCP-XXXX A, seems to give Specimen its anomalous abilities. Due to it's attachment to the host, it can be deduced that it seeks to protect its host, this could be the origins of the anomalous abilities. Further testing shows that if SCP-XXXX is in pain the SCP-XXXX A will also be in pain, giving credence to the theory. Although other researchers disagree, saying that it is merely a side effect of the parasitic entity, as it seems to not care about the mental health of SCP-XXXX. Further research and testing are required.

Addendum; Mourning Prayers:

SCP-XXXX is allowed to have mourning prayers off of facility premise. Foundation Agents are to escort the Specimen into an open field of grass or within a forest where it will be given a pouch of tobacco that it will hold in its left hand and say a prayer on Ojibwe (an Algonquin language) and dig a small hole and place the tobacco within the hole.

If it asks for the agents to join in on the prayer, they are to politely and respectfully decline or accept. If in the unlikely event the agent speaks Ojibwe they are to say a prayer in the said language, if they don't they can take a moment of silence as prayer.

Addendum; Mental Disorders:

SCP-XXXX suffers from PTSD and Psychosis, this was caused by operation-██████, which saw the Foundation approval to test the anomalous abilities of SCP-████. The mental disorders have caused negative side effects to SCP-XXXX and others around it, as it projects its pain and trauma via its telepathy and appears to be unable to control it. The effects of its telepathy vary from minor headaches to causing seizures, and on one cause caused a researcher to become brain dead.

Due to various reasons, along with ethical concerns, the Foundation has approved that SCP-XXXX is able to get therapy to help treat its disorders.

The therapy appears to have helped in the treatment of SCP-XXXX, as more and more Foundation Staff describe a feeling of peace yet longing whenever they near the Specimen. Further therapy is ongoing.

Addendum; Doctor Amelia Larsen:

Doctor Amelia Larsen (age 36), one of the Foundation's top researchers into the anomalous, is the wife of SCP-XXXX. Unknown to SCP-XXXX, Doctor Amelia Larsen was the one who contacted Foundation about SCP-XXXX, although she has gone on record of wishing she never did.

It appears that Doctor Amelia Larsen does have affection and care for SCP-XXXX but she has made no attempts to break SCP-XXXX containment. Despite that Doctor Amelia Larsen makes weekly visits to SCP-XXXX where the two often talk about various topics, ranging from the Foundation itself to the mundane things, such as their family.

Doctor Amelia Larsen is allowed to meet SCP-XXXX without the supervision of the Foundation and is permitted to continue until further notice.

Addendum; Sophitia Larsen:

Sophitia Larsen (age 13) is a female civilian and appears to hold no anomalous abilities, although the Foundation is keeping tabs on her. Her current Location is Chicago, Illinois, living with her mother. She has no knowledge of the Foundation and only knows that her mother is a 'Professor', but does know that her father is a Navy SEAL.

SCP-XXXX is permitted to see its daughter with a small escort of Foundation Agents disguised as veterans. The relationship between the two is optimal despite the current state.

Sophitia Larsen should be closely monitored to make sure the anomalous abilities of SCP-XXXX is not hereditary.

Addendum; SCP-XXXX A:

SCP-XXXX A is a metaphysical or spiritual entity of a parasitic nature. As to what the origins of SCP-XXXX A are unknown, but SCP-XXXX claims it is a 'Manitou', or spirit, and acts as a guardian for SCP-XXXX.

SCP-XXXX cannot be seen by the human eye or by cameras. The only evidence of SCP-XXXX is the faint golden glow that circles SCP-XXXX whenever it sustains damage, and can sometimes be seen in mirrors whenever SCP-XXXX is using its abilities, often appearing as a Wolf or Eagle. Efforts to remove SCP-XXXX A from SCP-XXXX has caused severe pain for both entities in question, and would likely result in the death of SCP-XXXX.

SCP-XXXX claimed that it heard the 'Manitou' call out to it when it was confronted SCP-████. Further testing is required.
