Containment:
Due to its nature, SCP-6XXX currently is not able to be contained in ways closed off to the public, as its negative anomalous properties grow exponentially more severe the less people with certain requirements interact with it. As current standing, those requirements seem to be physical ailments of the human body. As of the current containment procedure, the site of the anomaly is to be operated and maintained solely by Foundation personell, under the guise of a thermal bath. The site is to be open to the public throughout the year, and in case of the public attendance is not meeting required levels for the anomaly to stay in a „pacified” state, ad campaigns are to be conducted, along with freely handed out entry vouchers, in order to raise attendance of the site. The required monthly attendace of the afflicted is around 100.000. visitors at minimum, but for optimal supression of the anomalies negative effects the visitation number has to near 120.000. visitors per month. Currently the proper containment of 6XXX is not possible, due to the nature of the entity, see Incident report-6XXX-8. Further research is currently undergoing if the severity of the illnesses of the visitors affect the numbers in any way.
Description:
SCP-6XXX is an entity at the bottom of a thermal lake in Hévíz, Hungary. The area of the lake is 47,500 square meters (511,000 square feet), with a depth ranging from 2 meters to 38.4 meters. At the bottom of the lakebed is the main water source for the lake, where an opening is located, approximately 2.7 meters in width, 72 centimeters in height. A 14-17 meters wide hall, dubbed „The Amphora Hall” by on site research personell lies beyond the opening. The Amphora Hall is split in two by the entity itself, horizontally, which occupies the lower half of the hall. The entity is observed to take on multiple appearances, dependent on its current state. The dormant state, in which the entity appears as a cloud of swirling silt, slightly lighter colored than the silt layering the sides of the main basin. The active phase, in which the entity takes on the appearance of a geometrically perfect sphere, during this phase change it's colors shift from the dormant light brown, to a very dark brown/black, with red accents. In its dormant state, the entity’s anomalous properties are positive to the people interacting with it, healing bodily afflictions with to some degree of succes, for examples of these effect see expirements 6XXX-E1 through 6XXX-E5. Although its positive effects when in the dormant state the entities anomalous properties greatly change when it has not come into contact with sufficient number of afflicted people for more than a month. The currently known changes of anomalous properties when the enitity enters its active state, present a full shift from positive properties, to entirely negative ones. Namely, the currently known effects include the causation of diseases and bodily changes resulting in the most varying joint related issues, alterations to the human bone marrow and all dieseases associated with it, in the affected area. In some evere cases mental trauma or disorders can also be caused by prolonged exposure to this state of 6XXX, but the full extent of possibilties and severity is not known currently. In this state the entity’s effects start affecting an exponentially growing area originating from „The Amphora Hall”, as well as increasing frequency and severity of ailments caused in the affected area. Currently the maximal possible impacted area is not known, but after a prolonged time of being in the active state, the entities effects were affecting the population as far as London (aproximately 1360 kilometers), see incident report 6XXX-8.
The entities material composition is still not clear, but traces of human DNA and cells can be detected when the entity is in its dormant state. Attempt were made to take samples from the enitity when its residing in its active state, up to this point without succes. When the entity first enters its activated state, its form changes in the previously mentioned ways and begins to pulse in an exponentially increasing frequency most likely correlated with the affected area and severity, but this is currently uncomfirmed, as the entity shorts and destroy any and all electrical, equipment in a range of 10 meters after entering it’s activated state, and anything entering the „The Amphora Hall” during the objects active state is non recoverable, or locatable after its entry into the space.
Addendum - 6XXX-A
Dr. Németh ████████ has been appointed as director of Site-126 located in the city of Hévíz, Hungary, herein are included the personal logs of Dr. Németh until her resignation following the events described in Incident Report–6XXX-8. Any personnel being assigned to Site-126 after 20██/██/██, with level 3 or above security clearance is required to study these in order to garner a better understanding of the anomaly and to avoid any future incidents.

So this is it, I’m here, and I’ve got the responsibility to contain this, even though the site has only been estabilished. Well estabilished is not the best word for it, this bath has been here for the most part of the century, only we are new here. All previous staff have been removed from the site and as of now the Foundation takeover of the facilities is complete, but we are still lacking some of the essential equipment to begin surveying the entity. Some of the initial documentations regarding the entity of course has been misplaced during the rushed overtake of the facility. The responsible staff members have been reprimanded regarding this incident, although this does not help with the fact that we are sitting atop an entity of mostly unknown properties lacking some of the important reports on it’s possible anomalous properties. As of now one thing is clear to me, based on the avaliable documents, that 6XXX reacted negatively to the initial containment attempts. Soon after it’s discovery, the site was cordoned off from the public as per protocol, but after 3 days the anomaly seemed to react in a manner not reported previously, at least based on the reports currently avaliable indicate. Based upon our current knowledge I face a multi layered problem. First off, as of my current directions regarding 6XXX, we are to contain it in a manner, that doesn’t disturb the previously set norms, and because of this we are unable to close the entity off from the public. Of course the cover masquarade was already put in place by the original owners of the thermal bath before the takeover, but this still might prove as a challange. We’ll see, hopefully the rest of the testing equipment will arrive in a timely manner and we can begin the further examination, classification and containment of the enitity. Luckly a capable research staff has been assigned to Site-126, most notably, my research project head Dr. Kovács [REDACTED] and his assistant Dr. Ivanovics [REDACTED] are both great minds. Dr. Kovács has done notable research on previously freshly discovered anomalies and has proved a great resource during the classification and initial containment of those entities. I trust that his judgement and method of examiniation will provide us with better methods of safely containing this entity.

Shortly after the overtake of the site, all necessary equipment has been delivered to the facility. Testing has begun on 19XX/XX/XX and has been ongoing for X months and X days, detailed in experiment logs 6XXX-E1 through 6XXX-E6, and progress in specifying the anomalous properties has been made, unfortunately not without incident. We suffered one casualty during the experiments due to improper safety precautions taken during the process, when technical staff on the insertion pier got hit and dragged by a dislodged piece of asset retrieval equipment. At least this unfortunate accident did provide us with some insight regarding the entity’s effects in its activated state, through the autopsy of the deceased (see 6XXX-AR1). I requested formal interviews with staff involved during 6XXX-E3, see the included interview log excertps, 6XXX-I03 and 6XXX-I09.The hypotesis’ presented based on autopsy report 6XXX-AR1 were confirmed later in experiment 6XXX-E5, through the examination of the D-class subject. The involved D-class has been put into an artificial coma in order to not subject her to inhumane conditions, and has been quarntined for further study. The reservations held by most research staff members has been noted and I deem it necessary to halt all further experiments until further notice, based on the belief that a hard to contain „run off” scenario could be triggered by continued experiments with 6XXX’s activated state. Research project lead Dr. Kovács [REDACTED]’s disagreement regarding my policy has been noted, but the repercussions caused by an event this magnitude can not be specified at this time. I’m taking steps in order to estabilish a steady attendance of people with the required criteria through the state’s health care system, encouraging medical professionals to consider refering people to our site for further examinations, and encourgae them to seek cures through the thermal bath. I have estabilished a media outreach and advertising department consisting of five on site personnel, in order to keep the attendance at the required level by methods of advertising the lake as a great tourist destination, national landmark and to emphasize its healing properties through the positive effects of the thermal waters. This departmant is to work closely with the entity surveillance teams in order to react as quickly as possible to attendance numbers not meeting the quota. In these hopefully rare cases the department has several prepared advertisment campaigns, including free entry vouchers, and in necessary cases discounted or free lodging during the visit. Though, because we operate openly to the public, on site surveillance efforts will have to be raised and maintained at all times, and all attempts at diving or unauthorized acces must be twharted in order to avoid the public’s direct exposure to 6XXX.
