Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is currently hung in Site-24 Revised Staffroom 16 on the far left wall. Revised Staffroom 16 has the following modifications;

  • Level S-XZ-ALT Reality Holsters affixed to each wall (previously Level E-XX-ALT Reality Holsters)
  • Furnishings removed to be replaced with an observation deck
  • Outside door replaced with standard issue containment door

Personnel wishing to use the board outside of testing parameters must write a request to the current project head, containing the reason for use and the colour of chalk they wish to use. Any personnel writing permission to use the red or yellow chalk are subject to a mandatory psychological screening after use to be immediately denied.

SCP-XXXX-1 and it's contents are to be stored in the allocated slot on the side of the chalkboard held in a Level 1 Anomalous Objects Locker inside of Safe Object Vault 3. All extractions of the chalk are to be logged, along with the personnel that submitted the request.

Instances of SCP-XXXX-2 appear to be confined to SCP-XXXX, and therefore, no further containment is required. The Trans-Dimensional Communication Hub are to be sent transcripts of conversations between test subjects and SCP-XXXX-2 for dimensional code to be identified and contacted for further study and information.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a 60 x 80cm chalkboard with a pinewood trim. SCP-XXXX displays its anomalous properties when written on by SCP-XXXX-1, though it can be written on with standard chalk and erased with a blackboard rubber. It shows minimal signs of wear and little to no exterior damage, which due to the location it was found (see Discovery), should be impossible.

Found alongside SCP-XXXX, designated SCP-XXXX-1, is a collection of five (5) pieces of pastel chalk inside. The colours are varied, from green to brown, and all appear to have been used before. Fingerprint analysis has come up inconclusive. It is theorized that SCP-XXXX-1's anomalous properties occur when the chalk comes into contact with SCP-XXXX, due the lack of anomalous ability displayed when using SCP-XXXX-1a ("Brown Chalk") against a Foundation-bought chalkboard.

Instances of SCP-XXXX-2 manifest in the form of answers or statements to questions or remarks written on the surface of SCP-XXXX with any variety of SCP-XXXX-1. Subjects holding the chalk are always directly reffered to by name. SCP-XXXX-2 is thought to be (and when using particular colours, actively claims to be) a clone of the subject in a different dimension. It displays knowledge of a subject's private and personal life - subjects remarking that the information is 'completely accurate' despite claiming to have never told anyone the information. Despite the accuracy of this information, several historical and temporal differences have been noted when talking to instances of SCP-XXXX-2, most notably when using SCP-XXXX-1c ("Red Chalk") and SCP-XXXX-1b ("Green Chalk") - See 'Chalk Testing Log' for further details.

Discovery: SCP-XXXX was discovered alongside SCP-XXXX-1 after being salvaged from the aftermath of a tornado in Manzanita, Oregon. It was found in perfect condition and purchased by the ██████ family, who hung it up in their kitchen for use. The seller has not been found - Foundation location efforts are still underway as of 12/5/10.

The Foundation was alerted to its potentially anomalous qualities after the ██████ family called the police a little over 48 hours later, claiming that someone was coming in at night and writing on the chalkboard. An operative stationed within the police department was called to the scene and attempted to write on the chalkboard with SCP-XXXX-1b ("Green Chalk"). After getting a response a little over an hour later by an instance of SCP-XXXX-2, the operative contacted the Foundation for retrieval and recovery. The civilians in question were given Class B amnestics and placed under Foundation surveillance for 2 weeks before being cleared by security personnel for any involvement in further anomalous activity.

Addendum-XXXX-1c: As of 4/12/10, SCP-XXXX-1c no longer appears to produce an anomalous affect when used on SCP-XXXX. Subjects told to use SCP-XXXX-1c, even without prior knowledge of its anomalous abilities, will actively try to avoid testing or refuse all together. Current hypothesis suggests that the dimension that SCP-XXXX-1c links to is being destroyed or no longer exists.
