Special Containment Procedures: Ground access to Site 337 surrounding SCP-6000 is to be prohibited, and the air space above Site 337 is to be classified as restricted airspace. Trespassers are to be turned away under threat of prosecution by the Russian Federation. The 'advisory region' and 'danger region' of SCP-6000 are to be updated regularly1. Site 337 is to comprise an area twice the size of the 'advisory region' and is to be updated in perimeter as needed.
The chamber containing SCP-6000 is not to be accessed by more than one individual under any circumstances. The Primary Research Facility surrounding SCP-6000 (henceforth PRF) is located at the head of the mountain. The PRF is to be staffed with no more than two (2) foundation psychologists, no more than four (4) research scientists, and no more than eight (8) D-class personnel at all times. All research and D-Class staff are to operate in four (4) shifts of six (6) hours with no more than one quarter of the maximum research and D-class staff active at any one time. All inactive site members coming off of shift are to report directly to the mess hall to retrieve their food for the next 24 hours one at a time as directed by the on-site psychologist, and then immediately to their solitary quarters for inactive hours.
All psychologists on site are to begin their eight (8) hour shift two (2) hours before the previous psychologist has left. They will arrive from off-site with the required rations for the current shift and deliver them to the mess hall. A psychological evaluation is to be performed on all staff who will be active during the next shift. If signs of aggression are present, the psychologist is to order the removal of all affected individual(s) from the site and to halt all testing until further notice.
After this brief psychological evaluation, the psychologist must begin observing all experiments performed during the current six (6) hour shift. The psychologist is not allowed to speak to any personnel for the duration of the shift except in the event of signs of uncontrolled heightened aggression between present staff, in which case they are authorized to use any tactics up to and including a provided tranquilizer gun to isolate affected parties. At the end of this shift, the psychologist is to briefly confirm that the psychologist for the next shift has arrived non-verbally, before immediately evacuating the site.
Investigation into the ruins surrounding SCP-6000 is prohibited at this time.
All instances of SCP-6000-1 which are found alive are to be detained immediately for questioning.
Description: SCP-6000 is a cylindrical obelisk measuring approximately ten meters in height, tapering in diameter from the bottom to the top. SCP-6000 is comprised primarily of polished granite from the surrounding mountain range. Within the structure of the granite are several intrusions containing the wood of various tree species endemic to the region. The cells within the wood material are living, despite no obvious source of sustenance. Micro-structural analysis of the cells suggests that at some point during the creation of the obelisk, the cells rapidly flooded in through the base of the obelisk, acting as a viscous liquid.
SCP-6000 is contained within a circular cave approximately ███ meters above sea level in a remote region of the Altai Mountains in Siberia. The inside of the cave is temperate at all times of year, even though there is a horizontal entrance and a natural skylight in the roof of the cave. Within this cave exist several flora and fungi species related to those in the surrounding area, though in some cases significant genetic drift is observed between these samples and their common counterparts.
It is possible for an individual to become 'attuned' to SCP-6000, at which point they begin manifesting the anomalous capacity to alter the shape, function, and structure of living plant matter around them. It is currently unknown how exactly this attunement process is accomplished, though several theories have been proposed. Selected instances of this power becoming manifest are documented in Addendum 2. All individuals who have become attuned to SCP-6000 have been terminated or are currently unaccounted for.
SCP-6000's secondary anomalous effects manifest when there are two or more people in close proximity within a region labeled the 'danger region' which currently spans a circular region of approximately 5 kilometers centered on SCP-6000. When two individuals within the 'danger region' engage in any conversation, verbal or nonverbal, the probability that the conversation will drift towards a topic in which the two people will disagree appears to increase substantially. Upon reaching a disagreement, the two conversants will become fixated on the disagreement, escalating in conversational aggression, until finally both conversants engage in physical violence until one or both parties have collapsed or expired.
The 'danger region' is currently expanding at a rate of approximately █ meters per day. The rate at which the 'danger region' expands appears to increase considerably if conflict is occurring within the 'danger region', and has been observed traveling in excess of ████ meters per day. Research into the conditions which control the expansion of the 'danger region' are considered a top-level priority.
Within the 'danger region' of SCP-6000 exists the abandoned remains of an anomalous civilization which made extensive use of SCP-6000 for various purposes. The remains suggest the civilization used the powers of SCP-6000 for structural, agricultural, and religious ends which were heavily incorporated into daily activities.
