Item #: SCP-5668
Object Class: Safe Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-5668 is to be kept within a standard containment locker at Site-37. Every 12 hours, SCP-5668 is to be removed from it's storage container and played with by a D-Class personnel for approximately 30 minutes. This procedure is not to be strayed from by any circumstance as the result of Incident-5668-A. Any sudden changes in the mood of all personnel at Site-37 is to be immediately reported to Dr. Roman to ensure that the proper procedures are taking place.
Description: SCP-5668 is a knitted teddy bear measuring 32cm tall and 19cm wide. A small patch has been knitted onto it's stomach reading "Please Take Care of Me" In uneven handwriting It's face has been described as having a happy smile and joyful button eyes. In it's happy state, SCP-5668 produces a type of radiation that drastically increases dopamine emissions to any humans within a 1-kilometer radius. When under the influence of these waves, people report feeling generally happier and site productivity has been increased by 10% ever since SCP-5668 was introduced to Site-37.
When SCP-5668 is not played with in a 24-hour period, it will enter it's sad state and start producing a different type of radiation. This does the opposite as the happy radiation, reducing dopamine emissions periodically until it is played with again. Prolonged exposure to this radiation can lead to headaches, nausea, paranoia, depression, and eventually homicidal and suicidal tendencies. (See Addendum-5668-01.)
