description: SCP-4000 presents as a maple wood cube, approximately 5x5x5 cm3. SCP-4000 has the phrase, "█████ حائل", engraved into the front of it, which translates to, "hail █████". It is currently speculated that this was at one point the "name" of the SCP. When the aforementioned "name" is spoken for the first time, (regardless of volume or distance), The speaker reports loss of function in the arms/legs and is forced to kneel. the second time this happens, the speaker's tongue is cut out on a molecular level. The third time, the arms, legs, head, brain, heart, and lungs of the speaker and removed on a molecular level and scattered randomly in a 5 meter radius which is covered almost entirely in blood. Strangely, none of the blood is the victim's, as it always has the same off-red color and scrambled DNA pattern. The SCP appears to administer different "punishments" for different types of interaction with it. All personnel who have laid eyes upon SCP-4000 have reported instantaneous and incredible, searing and blinding pain behind the eyes. To date, only one person, D-████ has suffered permanent damage from viewing the SCP (loss of eyesight). Upon touching the SCP (unintentional) the person who made contact feels immense pain where their skin made contact with the SCP. D-████, D-████ and researcher ██████ all report the same "shooting, burning pain" that slowly spreads until approximately 60 seconds after contact. On intentional contact, the victim's arms are severed on the molecular level, upon hitting the ground they wither in a matter of seconds. When a person/persons attempt to destroy the it, SCP-4000 will activate, all persons involved instantly die in a flash of light. After the flash all that is left of the person/persons is a withered husk. After activation, the SCP will glow. it is widely agreed that the SCP will glow after activation for longer if more than one life was taken. it seems that the SCP will glow for 20 seconds after one life was taken, and 15 seconds per additional life. In addition, it is also accepted that this SCP is a manifestation of the ancient god, █████, of the same name, who gave similar punishments to lesser beings, like humans, if they tried to interact with him.
