Elevator Pitch: What is the basic core idea? Use a bullet point list if necessary.
A pair of anomalous knitting needles. Once touched, the victims gains a new overwhelmingly intense desire to go to the nearest skein of yarn and knit. While under this effect they lose their sense of pain. They also learn the location of the nearest skein of yarn. This causes them to make a beeline for that nearest skein of yarn. Once they reach the yarn, they immediately start knitting. It is always in the shape of a snake. The size of the snake depends on how much yarn is in the skein. But it always uses the entire skein. Once the knitting is done, the knitted snake jumps off the needles and bites the victim’s carotid artery. After doing so the knitted snake then un-knits itself and goes back to being a regular, un-anomalous skein of yarn.
Central Narrative:
SCP-XXXX appears to be mass-produced. The investigation into what group is mass-producing it is still ongoing. The anomaly was first discovered on July 21, 2011 when a Foundation Agent had intercepted a 911 call relating to an event transpiring in a Micheal’s Arts and Crafts store in ████████, South Carolina. The events were described as “An old woman in her eighties laying dead in the yarn section with a pool of blood by her neck and a knitted snake unravelling itself by the woman’s neck. The woman was also tightly gripping a pair of knitting needles.” A mobile task force was then mobilized to the store. By the time they arrived another person had fallen prey to the knitting needles. A man in his late twenties was trying to help the woman when his arm scraped against the needles. At that point he disregarded the woman entirely and ripped the needles out of her dead hands, grabbed the skein she had been using as it was the closest and started knitting a snake.
By the time the MTF arrived, the man was almost done knitting the snake. The Mobile Task Force’s first course of action was closing off the store. Any attempts with communication were met with growls and guttural sounds. All attempts to touch either: the victim, SCP-XXXX-A, or SCP-XXXX-B, were met with violence from SCP-XXXX-C. Note that they wouldn’t attack using their hands, but only their other body parts.
All witnesses at the scene were given Class-A amnestic.
