Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept within a small, locked steel container at Site-34. The container is to be kept on a weight-sensitive pressure plate. Any unauthorized changes to weighted plates will result in containment cell lockdown.

SCP-XXXX-A through F¹ are to be kept at Site-34. Every instance of SCP-XXXX-A through F is to be confined within a Human Containment Ward. Under no circumstance should these instances have any contact with each other or Hendrick Peterson. SCP-XXXX-A through F are to be given frequent therapy by an approved foundation psychologist, which is to be logged for psychological evaluation. SCP-XXXX-A through F are to be taught basic skills: such as literacy and numeracy, to ensure that they have an understanding of human society.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a 3D pen capable of recreating the entire atomic structure of the last object/organism it has come into contact with. SCP-XXXX has been observed to not require any materials however, recreating the atomic structure is a very time-consuming task, producing only a small quantity of its recreation at a time.

SCP-XXXX is capable of recreating entire organisms, as seen by all instances of SCP-XXXX-A through F. This proves that SCP-XXXX is capable of recreating live tissue, however the extent of these abilities have only been used to create SCP-XXXX-A through F.

Recovery log of SCP-XXXX:

On the 24/05/2010, the Foundation was alerted of SCP-XXXX's existence after a civilian reported seeing strange, cult-like behaviour of multiple people climbing up Mount Elbert, Colorado. Investigation results led to investigators coming into contact with Hendrick Peterson handling SCP-XXXX, whilst instances of SCP-XXXX-A through F surrounded him.

Hendrick Peterson and all instances of SCP-XXXX were openly hostile to Foundation investigators upon initial contact, resulting in MTF Epsilon-6 ("Village Idiots") being deployed. After deployment of MTF Epsilon-6 ("Village Idiots"), Hendrick Peterson turned himself in, along with all instances of SCP-XXXX-A through F.

Date: 24/05/2010

Interviewed: Hendrick Peterson

Interviewer: Dr. Amelia Smith

Foreword: First interview of Hendrick Peterson after containing SCP-XXXX. Dr. Amelia Smith questioned Hendrick Peterson to gain an understanding of SCP-XXXX and SCP-XXXX-A through F.

<Begin Log, 18:24:05>

Dr. Amelia Smith: Hello Mr. Peterson, I'm Dr. Amelia Smith. I'm going to ask you a some questions about SCP-XXXX. I would like you to answer every question to the best of your ability. Are you ready?

[Image of SCP-XXXX is shown on a whiteboard]

Hendrick Peterson: Like I have a choice… Tell me where are my children? What are you doing with them?

Dr. Amelia Smith: If by "children" you mean SCP-XXXX-A through F they are safe, however for their safety, I ask you refrain from asking any further questions okay?

[Hendrick Peterson grunts and nods his head]

Dr. Amelia Smith: Right… first thing first how does SCP-XXXX work?

Hendrick Peterson: Whatever the pen touches, it can recreate the atomic stucture pefectly. Anything and everything. from wood to gold… even live cells. It's the perfect gift from God.

Dr. Amelia Smith: And tell me… how long have you had SCP-XXXX for?

Hendrick Peterson: Eight years.

Dr. Amelia Smith: Thank you. And how did you get SCP-XXXX. Did you make it? steal it? get it from someone or something?

Hendrick Peterson: I found it out in the woods. [snickers] A gift from God. What do you mean by something? who are you people?

Dr. Amelia Smith: Could you please stop asking questions? This is your final warning. Now am I right in saying that SCP-XXXX-A through F are by-products of SCP-XXXX?

[SCP-XXXX-A through F are shown on the whiteboard. Hendrick Peterson shows clear facial expressions of agitation]

Hendrick Peterson: Stop referring to them as numbers. They have names.

Dr. Amelia Smith: Please answer the question. We know you're a Yale dropout. We know you live in a cabin on Mount Elbert. If you do not tell us, I'm sure we will find out soon enough. Think of your "children".

[Hendrick Peterson sighs]

Hendrick Peterson: Fine… Yes… Yes they are created from it. They're the perfect humans. No flaws. No illnesses. No nothing. They are purely God's creation, and I am their father! They need me. [Hendrick pauses for 5 seconds] Let me see them.

Dr. Amelia Smith: I am afraid I cannot allow you to see SCP-XXXX-A through F. Thank you for cooperating with us, we will talk later.

[Hendrick Peterson becomes aggravated and starts banging his cuffs on the table]

Hendrick Peterson: NO! Let me see them! I told you everything, now you should return that! Let me see my children! Now!

<End Log, 18:27:14>

▶ Open Recovery Log-01: Date 13/02/2002 

Entry of Hendrick Peterson's diary showing how he came into contact with SCP-XXXX and discovering the anomalous properties of SCP-XXXX.

My name is Hendrick Peterson, it is the 13/02/2002. Yesterday, when strolling through the woods, I found a strange pen that cannot be explained with our current laws of science. When using it, instead of ink coming out, dirt came out. it is baffling to me, but as a scientist I shall document my discoveries in hopes of understanding the unknown properties of this pen.

[Hendrick Peterson sits down on a wooden chair holding up SCP-XXXX to the camera]

Hendrick Peterson: The date is 20/02/2002. It has now been a week since I have had this pen and I must say the properties of this are outstanding.

[Peterson takes a deep breath]

Hendrick Peterson: Right…. where do i start? perhaps a demostration will be the best way to show it.

[Hendrick Peterson stands up and makes his way to a water tap. he dips SCP-XXXX into the water. He then gets a glass cup from the cupboard and then returns to sitting at the wooden chair]

Hendrick Peterson: Alright here it goes…

[Hendrick Peterson presses a button on SCP-XXXX. Water from the tip of SCP-XXXX starts appearing and filling the glass until it spills]

Hendrick Peterson: You see what I'm seeing right? the pen touched the water and the pen emits water. Here another demostration.

[Peterson puts the tip of SCP-XXXX on a wooden table. SCP-XXXX then starts emitting wood from the tip of SCP-XXXX]

Hendrick Peterson: See! Anything! God it's amazing what I can do! Think of all the possibilties this pen could create. It's a masterpiece!

[Hendrick Peterson pauses for 4 seconds]

Hendrick Peterson: Wait… I just had a brilliant thought. What if I can copy living beings?

[Hendrick then places SCP-XXXX on his arm. SCP-XXXX starts emitting human tissue. Hendrick then drops SCP-XXXX and starts frantically shaking]

Hendrick Peterson: Oh God help me… What have I done?

▶ Open Recovery Log-03: Date 23/02/2002 

Entry of Hendrick Peterson's diary showcasing his thoguhts of SCP-XXXX's ability to recreate living tissue.

23/02/2002

It has been a few days since I discovered the pen has the ability to recreate human flesh. Every hour I have repented, asking for forgiveness from God. I feel that I have tread the grounds no mortal man should ever cross for I am not the creator, but the creation.

Even with my repentance though, I am still sinning. My greed has lead me to further study the flesh I made, and I will still document my findings. I have discovered that the cells are a perfect copy of my DNA, and more importantly, the cells are alive even without a body. Over these past days I have been thinking what If I can create the perfect human? A human God could be proud of. Surely God will accept that as my repentance. with my knowledge of the human autonomy it shouldn't be hard and with this pen being my tool I have the absolute confidence it will be a success.

Date Recorded: 24/05/2002

<Start Log>

Hendrick Peterson: Right… So its been a few months since I started creating the perfect human, one God will be proud of, a pure body with no corruption from sin. I only have a little to finish but today will finally mark the day I become God's right hand.

[Hendrick Peterson walks over to SCP-XXXX-A and uses SCP-XXXX to finish creating SCP-XXXX-A for 3 minutes]

Hendrick Peterson: It's finished… Finally. God be with us, please, please grant this empty vessel a soul, I swear on the Holy Bible I shall dedicate myself to teching this soul the teachings of God, I beg you.

[Hendrick Peterson holds a prayer, soon SCP-XXXX-A starts twitching, it then starts standing up. SCP-XXXX stares at Hendrick Peterson]

Hendrick Peterson: It's Alive! God Bless! Thank you, thank you for granting this body a soul. I swear I won't dissapoint… Hello my child, do you understand me?

[SCP-XXXX-A huddles into a corner of the room]

SCP-XXXX-A: W-who are you?

Hendrick Peterson: You are a child of God, don't be afraid… you have been blessed my son. You are safe with me. My name is Hend- no, I'm your father.

[Hendrick Peterson makes his way to SCP-XXXX-A, He reaches his hand out to SCP-XXXX-A]

SCP-XXXX-A: And who am I?

[Hendrick peterson pauses for a few seconds]

Hendrick Peterson: Your name… Your name is Maxwell. Lets get you some clothes, you must be freezing.
