Item #: SCP-4086

Object Class: Keter


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-4086 is to be placed in a room 150 meters below the surface. Audio recordings of wind waves must be played continuously in its room to keep it from thinking and conversing with personnel or SCP-4086-2. The elevator leading to SCP-4086 can only be accessed by Researcher Ida Jensen, via a special key card, and and SCP-4086-1, via its RFID microchip implant. Unauthorized attempts to gain access to the elevator will be met with lethal force.

Only members of the observation team are allowed to speak remotely to SCP-4086, and the conversations with the entity must be handled as follows:

  • Under no circumstances should the observation team inquire about SCP-4086's personal information or SCP-4086-2.
  • Subjects that have a negative emotional effect on SCP-4086 should be changed and avoided hereafter.
  • The conversation must be held in a courteous manner.
  • Using SCP-4086 to acquire information for personal gains is strictly prohibited.

SCP-4086-1 must remain in confinement when it is content with being confined1, and its cell must remain under surveillance and heavy security at all times. No less than two guards should escort SCP-4086-1 while it is traveling from its cell to SCP-4086 or wandering in the facility2. Direct eye contact with SCP-4086-1 must be avoided, and if one becomes entranced by it, the line of sight between the afflicted person and SCP-4086-1 must be broken immediately. Subjects that have been caught in a trance for longer than 10 seconds must be detained and evaluated. It cannot be harmed or allowed to harm itself under any circumstances, and in case it becomes hostile, only tranquilizer darts are permitted to be used. In the event that SCP-4086-1 expires or begins to expel soot, all essential personnel must evacuate the facility.

1. SCP-4086-1 often protests its confinement by scratching at the door, but security is advised to examine SCP-4086-1 personally at any sign of irritation.
2. It is not permitted to escort SCP-4086-1 beyond the elevator leading to SCP-4086.

Onsets of sudden scopaesthesia and anxiety among personnel must be reported to security, and the affected person(s) must be detained and questioned to establish the cause. If it was proven to be related to SCP-4086, the security team assigned to SCP-4086 will handle it according to protocol.

Description: SCP-4086 was found in the snow in Peary Land, Greenland on the 16th of April, 19██. SCP-4086 is capable of communicating; however, its voice is hoarse and can be hard to discern. Currently, it is believed that it has no recollection of its past and is unaware of its current state. It is dormant in the absence of personnel in its vicinity; however, there have been a few accounts of activity without interference.

SCP-4086-1 is a black Canis lupus that appeared shortly after SCP-4086 arrived at Site-███. It weighs 52 kg, it is 83 cm high at the shoulder, and 185 cm long. It can sense SCP-4086's mental state from a great distance, and it travels to SCP-4086 as soon as it senses any disturbance as its presence has a calming effect on SCP-4086.

SCP-4086-2 is SCP-4086's main source of information, and it is understood that it is responsible for the psychological effects that affect personnel who enter SCP-4086's vicinity or know of its existence. Its knowledge is quite extensive; ranging from SCP-4086's history to [DATA EXPUNGED]. Its whereabouts are unknown, therefore containment is impossible.

The following information will be locked behind a login form.

Report-I: SCP-4086's effect did not diminish until personnel were approximately 100 m away from it; however, its effect did not entirely disappear.

Researcher Ida Jensen volunteered to enter the site and asses the situation as she was not drastically affected by SCP-4086. Upon re-entering SCP-4086's vicinity, she did not suffer the same effects.

In the infirmary, a black Canis lupus was found beside SCP-4086 atop of the autopsy table.

Report-II: The site director ordered for SCP-4086 to be moved to Area-███ where it can be housed underground since its range covers the entirety of Site-███ and therefore cannot be adequately isolated.

SCP-4086 was moved into a soundproof cell as the slightest of sounds would attract its attention, and loud noises tend to have a negative effect on it.
