Item #: SCP-XXXX
Level 1 Unrestricted
Containment Class: Euclid
Disruption Class: Ekhi
Risk Class: Notice
Note: the actual page will utilize the Anomaly Classification System (ACS)
Special Containment Procedures:
Due to the memetic nature of SCP-XXXX, containment is not plausible. Instead, measures are to be taken toward hindering the development of SCP-XXXX's memetic effects. The memetic effects of SCP-XXXX are to be explained of as part of foundation personnel training, and all foundation personnel who find themselves showing symptoms of SCP-XXXX are to immediately report to on-site psychiatric evaluation and are to be given scheduled time for consumption of works of fiction.
In the case of a Lifted Veil Scenario, amnestics are to be immediately delivered to all of humanity, excluding personnel under foundation employment, who are to be given mnestic drugs during the amnestic deployment period. Foundation spies operating within GOIs are tasked with sabotaging and slowing all knowledge and research of SCP-XXXX to prevent the possible weaponization of SCP-XXXX against the foundation.
Description:
SCP-XXXX is a memetic phenomenon that causes SCP personnel to feel an intense requirement to reveal everything known to them of the SCP foundation and leak official SCP documents and data. Personnel infected by SCP-XXXX are classified as SCP-XXXX-1 until the cessation of symptoms post-treatment. When SCP-XXXX-1 instances are questioned, they all respond variably, with the most common answers pertaining to the idea of the general worldly status-quo or normalcy being uninteresting, that a baseline-hume reality is also uninteresting, as well as that people unaware of the foundation, groups of interest, and the anomalous nature of our world should be informed about it. When further questioned, SCP-XXXX-1 instances unanimously answer that it would be a good thing—either for the greater-good of all mankind or to "make the world a more interesting place".
Memetic transference of SCP-XXXX occurs primarily via the consumption of works of fiction; examples including video-games, books, movies, music, fairy-tales, and ones' own imagination. This method of transmission is amplified most within fictional media classified under the Epic genre—that being whenever a grandiose and adventurous world is portrayed as part of a work of fiction.
Incident 531-1, 3/5/1998:
Foundation researcher Dr. Roberto Ademar of Site-38 had managed to contact journalists from national television, numerous news organizations, and UN representatives, all while successfully bypassing and evading security measures taken to prevent leaks of foundation documents. Luckily, however, foundation system administrators intercepted this, and immediately contacted the amnestics division and foundation administrators who were able to control the situation before the mass public were informed, thus preventing a Lifted Veil Scenario from occuring.
Addendum-1:
Due to the treatment of SCP-XXXX-1 instances being the same as the currently understood origin of the memetic effects, research is currently being done to find a less riskful treatment.
Addendum-2:
After inspection of foundation system logs and surveillance footage, it has been determined that the reason Dr. Roberto Ademar managed to go undetected by system administrators is due to a long history of unscheduled lunch breaks on the system administrators' part. This has prompted several demotions, as well as a restructuring of system administrator schedules to fill in any possible time gaps of work.
Soon following Incident 531-1, O5-11 proposed a ban on works of fiction which would effectively bar all foundation personnel from consuming any work of fiction, however this proposal was met with resoundingly negative response. O5-7 were particularily vocal in their resentment of the proposal, stating that "without entertainment, we would all slow to a bore". The O5 vote went as following:
| O5 |

Item #: SCP-5162
Object Class: Truculent
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-5162 was once profiled as only an anomalous item until recently and was held in a steel box. SCP-5162 is now be held in a ten by ten concrete cell with a four and a half foot tall pedestal with a two inch thick tempered glass case with a hatch on top of it. The hatch has a key and code lock. The key is held in a [Expunged] contained in site-[Redacted]. Anyone under level two that takes the key will be shot on sight even with permission unless the permission was granted by the 05 committee directly. SCP-5162 is to be held inside the case and the hatch shall not be opened without permission of a researcher of level or four higher. Testing is only allowed to be carried out by level three or higher with signed permission or the ethics committee.
Description: SCP-5162 has the appearance to be a yellow rubber dodgeball with a white plug. On the left side if the plug there is evidence of an adhesive most likely to hold a label that has been ripped off before the foundation was able to contain it. After much testing the adhesive can not be taken off and the plug can not be manually removed by even other SCPs.
SCP-5162 will appear in a ten foot half circle on the side of roads that have traffic of at least five cars with children in them a day. SCP-5162 will not appear obstructed or behind objects. When SCP-5162 is stationed it will not move until approached by a child under the age of thirteen even when directly touched by animals, SCPs, or nature. SCP-5162 will wait until approached by a child under the age of thirteen. SCP-5162 will then move away from the road. The child seems to be either hypnotized or heavily intrigued by SCP-5162 and will not stop following it even when physically moved. The hypnosis has a range of one-hundred mile circle from SCP-5162.
Once the child is not in the sight of any and all adults SCP-5162 will pop out it’s plug and slowly open to show a gaping mouth with hard rubber teeth-like protrusions and a slimy soft rubber tongue-like appendage. When this is shown the child will either [Redacted] or [Redacted] and SCP-5162 will then close and a new plug will appear in place of the old plug. SCP-5162 then rolls away and when out of line of sight of all animals it seems to disappear completely. After being starved SCP-5162 will no longer move.
Addendum: Testing is ongoing and this document will be updated accordingly. Tests 1A - 9A have been expunged and will not be written onto this document on request of the Ethics Committee.
Test Log 9B: While [Expunged] Subject two was instructed to stop SCP-5162 from closing. Subject two refuses. Subject two is warned that not complying will led to termination. Subject two acknowledges and does not comply. Subject two is warned once again and it finally complies sticking both of it's hands into the hole. SCP-5162 opens back up and [Expunged]. Test was then ended quickly after.
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX was built around and is surrounded by Site-[Redacted].
Description:
Addendum:
Item Description: A tree that seems to "glitch" for 0.5 seconds when looked at for more than five seconds. The tree does not pose a threat other then a ninety-nine percent to make the viewer question life, if anything is real, or if they are in a Matrix or Inception like simulation.
Date of Recovery: ██-██-████
Location of Recovery: ████████, ███ ██████
Current Status: It is surrounded by a small research station with minimum security. Testing is ongoing. Most people stationed there are contemplating just chopping the tree down and neutralizing it.

Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures:
Due to its unpredictable pattern of manifestation and ability to materialize and dematerialize at will, SCP-XXXX is impossible to contain. Instances of SCP-XXXX are to be approached and apprehended as quickly as is safely possible not to be interacted with by any personnel, regardless of circumstances (see Incident Log I-XXXX-01). At least two members of Oceanic Task Force (OTF) Iota-13 (“Boarding Party”) are to be present on any and all possible vessels which may experience a manifestation of SCP-XXXX to initiate and assist in evacuation if necessary.
Description:
SCP-XXXX is the collective designation for a group of entities that appear to target luxury cruise liners located in the Caribbean Sea, where the average net worth of all of the passengers is in excess of $1m USD, and only on vessels in excess of 50km from shore, and 20km from any other vessel. Instances of SCP-XXXX only appear between 10 PM and 4 AM, local time. Approximately two hours after its initial appearance, SCP-XXXX will de-manifest. This marks the beginning of a series of catastrophic mechanical or navigational failures, which eventually results in the vessel sinking. This process generally takes between four to seven hours for the vessel to become completely submerged.
SCP-XXXX manifests itself in multiple instances resembling famous pirates and privateers from the Golden Age of Piracy (circa 1650-1730 AD), categorized by recorded appearance. These include, but are not limited to: Captain Edward Teach (alias Blackbeard) (SCP-XXXX-1), Captain William Kidd (SCP-XXXX-4), Captain Henry Morgan (SCP-XXXX-5), Captain Bartholomew Roberts (alias “Black Bart”) (SCP-XXXX-7), and Captain John Rackham (alias Calico Jack) (SCP-XXXX-11). All manifestations resemble their respective historical figures during the height of their careers.
Instances of SCP-XXXX are observed as being exceptionally strong, fast, and resilient, making them exceedingly difficult to neutralize (see Contact Log C-XXXX-A). SCP-XXXX is never overtly hostile towards civilians or Foundation Personnel but will defend themselves when threatened.
Incident XXXX-01 – 06/24/20██
Subject(s):
OTF Iota-13 Agent █████ (Codename: Walleye), SCP-XXXX-1
Location: 14°20'45.4"N, 77°23'59.9"W, on the isolated upper deck on board “The █████ of the ████.”
Event:
Upon observing the appearance of SCP-XXXX-1, OTF Iota-13 Agent Walleye immediately attempted to apprehend the instance, in accordance with set containment procedures (which have since been revised). The moment Agent Walleye came into physical contact with XXXX-1, it moved with “blinding speed,” drew one of the four .50 caliber Flintlock pistols strapped to a bandolier on its overcoat, and proceeded to fire it into Agent Walleye’s torso from point-blank range. Fortunately, the tactical vest he was wearing beneath his steward’s uniform prevented the soft lead projectile from penetrating his body.
Immediately succeeding this event, SCP-XXXX-1 proceeded to de-manifest. Medical treatment for blunt-force trauma to the torso as well as several broken ribs was administered to Agent Walleye by his partner. The alarm was then sounded and evacuation procedures were initiated, since despite the early de-manifestation of SCP-XXXX, the series of events that eventually caused the vessel’s submergence did not fail to occur.
Contact XXXX-A – 08/12/20██
Subject(s):
OTF Iota-13 Agent ███████ (Codename: Pike), SCP-XXXX-7
Location: 17°23'29.8"N, 81°24'38.3"W, in the common lounge on board the “███ del ███.”
Event:
A drunken and irate passenger had stumbled into SCP-XXXX-7 and became aggressive towards the instance, blaming it for being “in his way.” The passenger then attempted to strike XXXX-7, at which point it had grabbed the man by the throat, lifted him approximately thirty centimeters above the floor, and slammed the man into the opposite wall, covering the sixty meters across the lounge area in what appeared to be less than a second.
OTF Iota-13 Agent Pike, disguised as a member of the onboard security force, opened fire on the instance in an attempt to rescue the civilian. XXXX-7 absorbed thirteen rounds of .45 ACP caliber ammunition, before turning its head at an unnatural angle to stare directly into Agent Pike’s eyes. It appeared to formulate a facial expression similar to a disdainful sneer, and disappeared. All civilians present were treated with Class-A amnestics, and the passenger that had been the victim of SCP-XXXX-7’s assault was provided with medical treatment on-site. Evacuation was initiated immediately.
Foreword: The following footage and communications were recovered from a research submersible and dive team tasked with exploring the aftermath of an SCP-XXXX event on 04/19/20██.
<Begin Log>
A video feed from a diver’s helmet mounted camera transmits a dim image of the interior of what appears to be the interior of an upper-class suite.
Diver I-13-1: Dive team, sound off.
Diver I-13-3: ████████. I’m here LT.
Diver I-13-2: Dash two, ten-four.
Submersible Commander: Lieutenant. Give us a sitrep. What’s going on in there?
Diver I-13-1: We’ve cleared the common areas and are now moving through the passenger cabins. We haven’t found anything out of the ordinary so far.
As if on cue, Sgt. ████████’s voiced crackled over the radio.
Diver I-13-3: Hey LT, I think we’ve got something here.
Submersible Commander: What have you found, Lieutenant?
Diver I-13-1: Sir, it appears as though every passenger cabin we’ve searched thus far has been completely stripped of valuables. There’s no sign of them anywhere. We’ll keep you posted as to what else we uncover. 13-1 out.
<End Log>
Closing Statement: The entire vessel seemed to lack anything of value priced at over $100 USD. There also appeared to be multiple hull breaches that resembled strikes from 32-pound cannon balls. However, no such munitions were recovered from the hull.
[[footnoteblock]]
She woke up to screams.
Screams as though the world itself was ending. Which, although she didn't know it yet, happened to be the case.
Then some screams became howls. Howls of predators, hunting prey. Howls that seemed almost human. But not exactly. Like a human had been twisted. Their humanity itself being torn asunder, leaving little more than a monster behind.
She covered her ears with her pillow, trying to drown out the noise. Trying to simply get back to sleep.
But the monsters would not go unheard.
One by one, they coalesced. Each contributing to the size and danger of the other. Then the alarms began to sound.
The shrieking and roaring of anomalies breaching containment filled the corridors outside of her room.
One by one, they fell silent, being assimilated into the mass that was slowly approaching her own door.
She turned to face the wall, still wanting nothing more than to just go back to sleep.
But sleep would not come. Not with the monster outside, not with the tortured shrieks that it emitted, and most certainly not with the crash of the door to her containment chamber being torn off of its hinges.

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is currently held in a secure 1x2x1 metre locker at Site-64, what should be supervised at all times. SCP-XXXX's cell is not to be opened unless permission is granted by a Level 3 clearance researcher.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a white refridgerator made by the company "Bosch." An interview with a worker of the store shows that SCP-XXXX didn't possess any anomalous effects while displayed at the store. SCP-XXXX was bought by ███ ████, who was found dead in ████████ Village. Subject had commited suicide. SCP-XXXX somehow gained it's anomalous effects in the village. When SCP-XXXX was retrieved, it had 2 sticky notes on it's door. The notes had handwritten text saying: "kill mr. carls";"be a good person for once." In the village, Jonas Carls was found dead due to a heart attack. When no notes of any kind are present on the door of SCP-XXXX, it is in a deactivated state, and will function as an ordinary refridgerator. If notes are present on the door of SCP-XXXX, it will be activated. In an activated state, SCP-XXXX may or may not obey the task written on the note. 79% of cases SCP-XXXX has obeyed the task written on the note. SCP-XXXX can teleport if needed. When the task is finished or denied, SCP-XXXX will anomalously destroy the note. When SCP-XXXX finds the task too absurd, SCP-XXXX will vanish and will shortly after appear with a new note. The new note appears eroded and has text written in cursive. The text always mocks the note with the task directly or otherwise.
Addendum-01:
Subject D-10023 placed a note saying: "do something good, okay" on SCP-XXXX. SCP-XXXX vanished and then appeared in Site-██, 500 kilometres away. Site-██ was currently experiencing a containment breach. On camera feed, SCP-XXXX went near the breached SCPs. Both entities then vanished and then reappeared in the breached SCPs containment cells. SCP-XXXX had recontained all of the breached SCPs. SCP-XXXX reclassified as Thaumiel
Addendum-02:
Researcher Thomas Brücke wrote a sticky note saying "kill 682."
After placing it on SCP-XXXX, SCP-XXXX vanished. After 43 seconds SCP-XXXX reappeared with a new note. The note said: "How about you kill god? That's the same thing IDIOT!"
Usage:
The instruction for usage of SCP-XXXX. (This is for your own good)
- Be polite with notes.
- Don't insult SCP-XXXX.
- Don't write something devastating for humanity.
- Don't anomalously write text on SCP-XXXX.
helo
this is a div block. so cool
th8s is a tox lol
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is currently isolated from the ████████ highway. A new length of road is constructed around SCP-XXXX. SCP-XXXX is surrounded by dense forest and fence in an 800 meter radius. The fence has cover-up signs saying a "military base" is in the area. This is to protect the secrecy and anonymity of the SCP Foundation.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a 115 meter length of road on the ████████ highway, █████, beginning at the 9.374 kilometer milestone and ending at the 9.389 kilometer milestone. The road of SCP-XXXX possesses no anomalous effects, though the milestones (A.K.A SCP-XXXX-2) placed in a 50 meter interval possess anomalous effects. SCP-XXXX-2s generate light in the "X-Ray" spectrum that produces mild paranoia, disorientation and accelerated heart rate in humans and animals. In a radius of 100 meters from an SCP-XXXX-2, a heart attack is common if stayed in the radius for long enough. The effects of SCP-XXXX-2 progressively lose severity the farther a human or animal is. The effects turn completely inaffective in a radius of around 500 meters. The farther from an SCP-XXXX-2, the more light swifts to the Infrared spectrum.

Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Eucild
Special Containment Procedures: Subject is to be contained in a steel humanoid containment cell 10m x 10m x 10m, with a 1m layer of custom sound proofing Vinyl and Mineral Wool on each wall's exterior. The room lighting is purposely dimed to 500 lumens, per subjects request, and shouldn’t exceed 800 lumens. No electrical breakers or key wiring should run along the inner containment chamber’s walls (to prevent the removal and possible repurposing of these circuits). An one-way mirror observation room is stationed 7ms up the north wall. The entrance is situated on the south wall and uses a 3m x 2m x 2m airlock/passage before leading into ████████'s corridor. Within the airlock are 4 automated sentry turrets, equipped with the latest motion tracking software, the turrets are only active when no site personnel are present chamber.
Subject is allowed several luxuries and forms of pleasure and entertainment to allow safer and easier containment of it. Such items include but are not limited to 1-100inch TV monitor, 1-████████ Bed, several paints and canvases, ████ videogame systems, 1-████████████ couch, and 1 custom made trampoline. Any broken furniture should be replaced promptly by the on-site's clean up team. Subject is also allowed to request certain items to maintain its compliance. If the request is denied, denial should be given with appropriate and logical reasoning. (see incident report 2)
Parameters for a Request
- No Staff or Site personal
- No Object that can be converted into a weapon
- No 'World Event' media or non-fiction material relaying the events of the world
- No sentient or non-sentient SCP's
- Only selected D-Class to play games with
- One household pet or animal at at time
- Food from the on-site cafeteria's daily menu
In the south west corner is an iron suit, hence referred to as ‘the broker’. The broker is made with the exact dimensions of XXXX from the neck down to the subject's digits. On the outside of the broker's left arm is an electronic hinge that is remotely controlled by staff. On the opposite side is an electro-magnetic release lock that will activate upon the broker closing. The broker is to be used for transportation of the SCP and when inducting newly assigned staff. All new personnel who intended to interact or speak directly with subject must undergo the judgement procedure (as described): Staff must have a full, mandatory, background check. Any event in the person’s life that is considered as cruel or immoral are to discontinue the procedure immediately. Upon passing the background check, XXXX will be asked to wear the provided blindfold and to step into the broker. 2 security guards will escort the personal into chamber and remove the blindfold from the subject when authorized by the head researcher. A blindfold should also be used whenever transporting the subject. If SCP-XXXX’s reaction is of no threat to the staff present, they are permitted to interact with XXXX. If subject becomes agitated upon seeing the staff, they must must evacuate and be transported off-site with no knowledge of the destination reaching any researcher linked to the studing of XXXX. The researcher may return to the site after 6 months, or with the 05 Council's approval.
Researchers Note- the guards should also have completed the judgement procedure.
Should XXXX attempt to breach its containment, the fail-safe will flood the cell with a 1000kL mixture of water and liquid nitrogen. If the countermeasures are compromised on-site MTF and security guards are to quarantine the sector. Squads should also mobilize and guard all important on-site assets. Commander R. Matthews will assume tactical superiority and coordinate from ████████████. Squads are authorized to use deadly force, remain within close proximity, check in often, and cover ventilation ducts.
Description: SCP-XXXX is an unknown human male of Caucasian heritage. XXXX is 1.89ms in height and 63.27 kilograms and resembles a healthy athletic 18yr. Notable features are the following: missing irises and perfectly straight teeth. SCP is by all accounts considered a mentally deranged mastermind severely traumatized person cunning mad man an unpredictable and dangerous psychopath with several anomalous abilities (See list below). The subject has an inconsistent aptitude test record but it should be noted that the subject commonly displays a high aptitude level for both physical and mental tasks. The subject doesn't appear to have one anomalous trait but rather several. (See Additional Anomalous Properties). However the subject’s most notable anomalous property is its ability to see people’s life choices. Theory is that it can see an individual’s history/past, almost retaining everything the individual has seen through their eyes. If XXXX establishes visual contact with an immoral individual, subject will likely proceed to assault them, eliminating them in extremely grotesque methods (see interview log 1).
Similarly the subject's psychiatric evaluation continues to be inconclusive, however MRI scans suggests 1 or multiple mental disorders. Scans show the subject possibly having the following: Bipolar disorder, Multiple Personalities, OCD, DID, Asperger syndrome, Autism, Schizophrenia, Clinical Depression, Kleptomania, “a brain tumor”, or “exposure to something anomalous”.
After XXXX had been in the MRI scanner for 20mins the MRI program crashed, engineers reported the image reader malfunctioning.
Additional anomalous properties:
- Subject is able to control his center of gravity. This lets the subject scale walls, ceilings and move at high speeds from 36km/h – N/A
- No sustenance or rest is required to maintain bodily functions. (However subject enjoys eating food)
- Mimicry of voices, male and female
- Its body is immune to pain and lacerations. Any blade or sharp object that cuts through its body will leave an outline of where the incision was made, but the skin will not separate. Healing is almost instant, depending on size, healing can take from 2.2-5sec.
- Serious damage from firearms has shown to incapacitate the subject, but it will do whatever it can to prevent this damage.
- Furthermore firearms are the most effective at harming the subject. This reason is yet to be understood.
- Subject can regenerate lost body tissue and vital organs, but at rates of 2-7 weeks
- The subject is capable of bending and contorting its body in ways which its anatomy shouldn't allow. I.e. turning its head around 270°, bending elbows and knees in their opposite direction etc.
For more details regarding subjects anomalous properties see the Testing Logs.
Researchers Note- Subject claims its body obeys its will.
XXXX displays 4 certain behavior patterns. These behaviors have been documented to reduce any concern or distress the staff may have for the subject.
- Common Behavior: Subject will remain passive, and will actively seek something it finds entertaining. Subject’s personality is inconsistent while like this. Staff have reported him acting polite, vulgar, respectful, intrusive, satisfied, menacing or sympathetic.
- Behavior A: Subject will float slowly around the cell, sometimes curled into the fetal position. It will change direction upon making contact with any of the cell’s surfaces. XXXX is considered to be docile in this state.
- Behavior B: Subject displays sadomasochistic behaviours. Aggression varies, i.e. smacking himself in the face or repeatedly throwing himself into the wall. XXXX doesn’t appear bothered by the pain.
- Behavior C: XXXX will talk very quickly to himself. Normally pacing around the cell floor, wall and ceiling. Subject tends to laugh when doing this. Though the subject often discusses other topics such as human philosophy and social issues.
Any behavior that doesn’t match these is to be reported to head researcher Dr.Coogan
SCP-XXXX-Recovery: Subject was apprehended Moscow Russia on the 15th of October ████. Several reports of a murderer with finger prints and DNA being untraceable drew foundation attention. It was later determined that these murders where linked to a string of previous murders trailing through the USA and Canada before appearing in Russia. A total of 108 victims, 65 Males and 43 Females, where linked to the unidentified killer. Foundation took exclusive interest on 7 murders in Russia being KGB agents. Russian Officials colluded with Foundation personal to identify the culprit. The KGB has allowed the foundation to document the following security records. 2 agents, whose names were withheld, were guarding ████████ at ████████████. 2 hidden cameras where watching the site. At approximately 1:35pm a hooded individual (which has now been confirmed as SCP) approached them. Agents attempted to kindly ask the individual to leave. SCP then looked directly where the hidden cameras are placed and displayed an eerily large grin. Any further information dictating the event and who they were guarding have been withheld by the KGB. Foundation began monitoring the city of Moscow were the majority of recent murders related to the SCP have occurred. On October 12th, Agent Kesha reported that an individual had walked into a police station, and opened his jacket to reveal custom-made explosives. He was then arrested on the spot and detained. 3 Days later Agent Kesha arrived at the holding cell after she heard suspicious reports of anomalous activity. Several lawmen and detainees had come within 3m of the individual suffered serious bodily harm. Agent Kesha contacted MTF-Xi-3 (Body Snatchers) for support. The suspect was found sitting cross legged on the ceiling, and proceeded to be detained with no resistance. All officers employed at the station where given Class-G amnesties.
Researchers Note- Subject remained strangely calm and docile while being moved into foundation custody. Contradictory to his supposed violent and aggressive nature.
Incident-XXXX-1
Foreword: Subject had remained motionless since day of containment. Attempts at provoking a response had begun as ‘Response Testing’, - days since containment. 3 D-class personnel were selected at random each day and tasked to invoke any form of response in subject. The containment procedure for the testing was an air tight medium steel containment unit with a plexiglass wall in the middle to prevent any D-class directly interacting.
Response Testing-7: 1st D-Class was a former musician/ convicted felon. D-class was asked to play the flute and guitar provided. D-class was asked to keep playing for 3mins. No response from SCP. 2nd D-class was a former photographer, D-class was ordered to arrange and organize the given ornaments and photograph it. Response given by SCP in the form of a single glance. D-class asked to return to his cell after 7mins as he claims he was “feeling past tendencies coming back.” Request granted. 3rd D-class was given a 9mm Smith and Weston and a 3-week-old Golden Retriever before entering room. D-class is ordered to play with the puppy. Response triggered in the subject. Subject sits up and crawls to the bottom of plexiglass and presses his hands against it, smiling. D-class is given the signal. D-class terminates the dog in 2 shots. Subject remain motionless for 8.3secs then crawls back to the previous sitting position. Subject is silent for 3 seconds before breaking out into laughter. Laughter continues for approximately the next 10hrs. Testing is postponed. D-class 2 and 3 are asked to meet together and discuss what they did in front of subject. No reaction is invoked in subject until 11mins into their discussion. SCP stands using only his legs, while his torso rolls up along his spinal vertebra to a neutral posture, before slowly advancing to the glass. Both D-class don’t notice the subject’s presence. Subject then aggressively smacks his hand against the glass startling both D-class. Subject then rapidly jerks his head between the 2 D-class for 15 seconds, camera audio faintly picked up a sound that is assumed to be the cracking of the subject’s neck vertebrae. Subject then repeatedly, and at an increasing pace, slams his cranium against the glass until it shatters. The glass causes a gash in subject’s head which sprayed blood over most of the room’s interior. Subject kills the first D-class by digging his fingers into the D-class’ facial orifices, nasal and eye sockets, subject then rips the skull apart scattering bone fragments and brain tissue all over the chamber. Subject then tears off the second D-class’s arms and forcibly shoves them down his throat, the second D-class dies of asphyxiation. Subject then dances with the headless corpse of the first D-class for 13min. Later the subject uses the second D-class’s blood to write on the wall in German “Alles hat ein Ende, nur die Wurst hat zwei.” Translated “Everything has an end, only the sausage has two.” Subject then collapses laughing. Subject was restrained after Research staff concluded the testing. Containment procedures reworked.
Additional Note- After this Incident subject is assumed to be a sadistic and masochistic. Psychiatric staff are unable to explain why SCP laughed at the dog. Subject is henceforth classified as Euclid.
Incident-XXXX-2
Foreword: Updated containment procedures keep XXX in a heavy-duty containment cell and restrained to a steel table lifted on an angle of 70’ to assist with swallowing food. Restraints consisted of 4 stainless steel shackles 2mm x 75mm x 100mm around subject’s wrists and ankles. 1 leather strap 2mm x 75mm x 120mm around neck with padding. And 1 leather harness 3mm x 950mm x 500mm around torso.
Researcher staff agreed to monitor behavior for 30 days before any direct interaction is made. Subject had been confined for 14 days, 11hrs and 13mins, leading up to the breach. During this time subject had requested to be given some form of freedom or entertainment multiple times. These were of course denied. █/█/█ subject began acting restless, struggling against restraints and begging for release before ceasing all movement for the remaining 15days. Upon examination SCP was discovered deceased. Doctor Coogan immediately ordered SCP to be wheeled out, still in restraints, to the labs for full autopsy report. Lab C - Camera 2 recorded the following. Dr ████████ and ████████ began to examine the condition of the body, moments later, subject starts convulsing and then wakes. Subject then proceeds to dislocate his ankles and thumbs allowing him to pull his limbs out the restraints. Subject snaps off the remaining harness restraint and begins assaulting all staff present while laughing. On-site MTF were alerted and captured the subject after ██hrs. See interview log 1 with task force member Captain Robert Matthews.
Interview-1-INCIDENT-2-XXXX
Interviewed: Captain R. Matthews member of task force ██████ now re-designated as leader of personnel task force “Gun Control”.
Interviewer: Dr Coogan
Begin Log
Dr Coogan: this is Doctor Coogan, interview log with Cpt Matthews. Questions on the subject’s anomalous abilities. Can you confirm that you observed SCP anomalies?
Matthews: Yeah, I “observed” him in action.
Dr Coogan: can you describe what you saw.
Matthews: okay f—k, well the guy was creeping on the walls like Spider-Man. Laughing while he tore my men limb from limb.
Dr Coogan: can you elaborate for us, preferably from the beginning please?
Matthew: I hadn’t checked my watch for last hour so about ████ afternoon. It was my turn to get coffee and I just got back when a containment breach went off inside the testing labs. I chugged my coffee before grabbing my gear, and met my squad at sector T’s elevator. Everyone was quiet while I relayed the information of SCP on the way down, basically I got told “subject was a male humanoid entity that was recently captured.” And that all we knew about him-it were “random violent outbursts and that he had weird body movement.” That was next to nothing looking back.
Dr Coogan: you were the leader of your squad of, twenty (20) men, you included, correct?
Matthews: yeah, I was… hey can I smoke. *lights and inhales cigarette* We split into four (4) teams of five (5), I was leading Team 1. We all agreed to converge at the lab in an hour of scouting sector T, but after the hour was up only Team 2 and us where there.
Dr Coogan: can you describe what you saw when you got there?
Image of the scene has been REDACTED by order of ██████. Site ███‘s testing labs are located along a hallway with 5 test labs (labelled A to E) each with its own 2m x 0.8m air tight door. Separating each door is a glass panel approximately 6m x 2.658m and 5cm thick. Increased security measures are in place on C, D and E (security clearance required).
Matthews: well my Team entered the from the south side while Team 2 entered from the north, most of the hallway was bleach white like the rest of the compound. Lab C’s window was smashed with what I assumed the face of one of science staff. He was slumped over the strip of wall long enough for the blood to pool and reach the other side of the hall. Even with all the blood and broken glass the hallway was still fairly clean. *inhales cigarette* Except the wall had a bloody trail like someone crawled up it. Trail eventually lead to the north door. Team 2 said they saw it led on around the corner when coming in. Inside the lab, tables, shelves and other… surgical equipment… were either smashed or flipped upside down. I saw maybe 4 bodies amongst it all. We waited for Teams 3 and 4, *inhales cigarette* for at 30mins, then I decide we should follow the trail. It lead to the cafeteria, then the trail started literally doing loopy loops on the ceiling. I decided to change the rendezvous, the hallway was claustrophobic for two (2) teams anyway. *inhales cigarette* Team 4 reported in saying they’re were checking on the surveillance system hoping to find SCP. Team 3 had gone radio silent. We checked coms every 5mins for the next 40mins, I think. Then Sam asks me “what did you say?” But I hadn’t said anything. Sam just looked confused but I don’t think he thought much about it, I started to panic a little so I tightened my grip while I held my breath and tried to listen-
Dr Coogan: what did you tighten your grip on? Remember we need specifics in these reports.
Matthews: my gun, I tightened my grip on my gun. And I nearly forgot to breath for a whole minute. Then I heard it “hey did you guys hear that?” My voice echoing in the room. I felt everyone turn to look at me and I was getting ready for what was next. I order everyone to form a defensive circle in the room’s centre. I called for names and, I don’t know when, but Sam was gone. We radio team 3 and 4 but get no response. Floyd then hears a voice from under a table and we find team 3’s transponder radio underneath. Something like wet footsteps started echoing in the room all around us. Then the fucking lights started falling and bursting. One of the lights fell on Conrad. I told, I think, Peter, Dylan, doesn’t matter now, to help him, while we all stood guard. The next five minutes were quieter than the inside of a coffin. *inhales cigarette* I ordered us all to switch to night vision. Peter then screamed as he pointed to the wall where a sad emoji looking face appeared, I think it was drawn in blood. It was simple and kind of cute actually. After I turned back around more sad bloody f—king faces appeared and then more as I looked up and down the walls. *inhales cigarette* Then I saw one of the faces was drawn with a smile in the corner of the ceiling. Next thing I feel is something shoulder charging into my left ribs. *inhales cigarette* I could hear my squad panicking. And then I saw him, he pressed me against the wall and twisted my neck until I felt a crack. I thought I was going to die and felt so scared. *Inhales cigarette* Then I realised I could still breath, and see, but I couldn’t feel a thing. I could barely think straight. Then he raised my head and, oh god those eyes.
(Matthews starts sobbing)
Then he kissed me, I could barely feel it but I knew he was kissing me tongue and all. He stops after, I don’t how long it was, but afterwards he propped my head up and tore up my men laughing… Knowing I was watching! He played with them like puppets… then he piled them up and just sat on it. Rocking back and forth on it while humming a f—king song…. I don’t remember seeing anything else but that thing for 2hrs until the next squad of men came in and restrained him. Why the fuck! Did he not do anything that time!
End Log Matthews became unable to cooperate at this point and was sedated and escorted for psychiatric rehabilitation

Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Begin Log
Dr: Can you start by telling me your name?
SCP: I don’t think I can.
Dr: Why is that.
SCP: Either I don’t remember, or I don’t want to.
Dr: You do have a name then?
SCP: Yes. Tell me what’s your name doc?
Dr: That is irrelevant.
SCP: Well Dr. irrelevant, it’s a pleasure to meet you.
Dr: Please cooperate. Are you human?
SCP: Always.
Dr: Do you know how your body gained these anomalous abilities?
SCP: hehe. Yeah.
Dr: Can you explain then?
SCP: Only if you say please.
Dr: Seriously?
SCP: Yes, seriously.
Dr: Can you “please” explain your anomalous abilities?
SCP: Thank you for asking so politely. Well if I were to convey what makes me tick. I’d have to say I’m twenty-seven (27) different flavours of mental lunacy, with a sprinkle of… everything.
Dr: Everything?
SCP: Yes.
Dr: What is everything?
SCP: Humanity. The world. The elements, whatever strikes your bargain.
Dr: Do you remember when you gained your anomalous abilities?
SCP: No. But I do remember feeling wrathful and despair like never before. Then he came to me.
Dr: Who came to you?
SCP: Me.
Dr: You?
SCP: Well no, not ‘I’ but ‘me’, and ‘me’ was ‘I’.
Dr: Can you please be more explicit in saying that.
(SCP starts twisting and contorting in its chair for fifteen (15) seconds before stopping and remaining silent)
Dr: Umm… okay so it was you who… came to you?
(SCP begins untangling itself) SCP: No. It wasn’t me. It was definitely someone else. Something not me… I think.
Dr: Another question to return too. Why are your irises devoid of any pigment?
SCP: Oh, The same time I forgot pain, I remember feeling my eyes roll out of their sockets, and then a scalpel cut through realities fleshy fabric and…(Laughing)
Dr: Didn’t you say that “you” came to yourself?
SCP: Did I? What do you think I said?
Dr: Okay (Dr██████ erases previous notes). What did you see?
SCP: I saw red dirt and silver blood leaking from a moon that I could touch. Horses with horns bent forward and skin that gleamed like it just came out a furnace. They were all vibrating like a maraca while hissing spit with a three-pronged tongue. It all made me feel so happy.
Dr: Why?
SCP: Because it all made sense.
Dr: Why did that make sense? And how were you able to understand it?
SCP: Well doc, the only way to understand it, is to be confidently mad.
Dr: How does—
SCP: Someone becomes mad like any person would. Copious amounts of pain. (SCP starts to have what looks like a mild seizure before snapping back into sitting position)
Dr: Do you remember who or what caused you such pain.
SCP: (SCP begins laughing) The world.
End Log XXXX continued to laugh for the next 5 hours.
Interview Log 2-D
Foreword: Further interviews have been inconsistent with the information the subject provides. Subject has retold the events provided in 3 more different ways. Any information provided about the SCP’s background is to be assumed as false. However, subject has been consistently stating, that the 'world' is the catalyst for his anomalous abilities.
Interviewer: Dr Coogan
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Begin Log
Dr Coogan: Hello SCP my name is Dr Coogan. I am your head researcher so to speak.
SCP: Congratulations.
Dr Coogan: As much as we don’t know about you… I know your human because firstly your anatomy is. Secondly you remind me of human condition. However, you defy a lot of logic in the modern world. Also, at times you find humour in quite brutal acts of violence. In my opinion that’s all I need to know to speak with you.
SCP: I like you doctor. You’re brave.
Dr Coogan: Anyone should be if they came in here with you.
SCP: I needed to be feared. Because what you fear is what you pay more attention too. (Giggling)
Dr Coogan: You don’t do this for attention.
(SCP remains silent while staring at Dr Coogan)
SCP: Now you have mine. What do you want to know.
Dr Coogan: I want to get to know you like a friend. No following any documentation procedures. Just a normal intelligent conversation.
SCP: I’d like that… Please ask me anything.
Dr Coogan: This will of course be recorded. Are you okay with that?
(SCP nods)
Dr Coogan: Well something that has been bothering me. What was the song you were humming after you slaughtered all of —-‘s men.
SCP: Frère Jacques.
Dr Coogan: Ah, I remember that. ‘Frère Jacques Frère Jacques Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous?’. So do you like tales?
SCP: I can use them to escape.
Dr Coogan: You mean… stories?
SCP: Yes.
Dr Coogan: What are you running from?
SCP: (SCP closes its eyes) I've suffered everything. I’ve had icicles penetrate and burn every nerve in me and I’ve felt my skin melt under the pain of an obsequious fire. And no matter how much I tried the world took all I had from me. Always I tried to make some sense of the world, but it had me pinned, screaming in my face. And all that screaming never made sense! Then I went mad. Afterwards is (SCP remains silent for the next 15sec), and then the world all made sense. I learned the only way to understand the world is to be completely insane. Then before I knew I couldn’t make sense of myself. “I”(SCP points to his whole body) went mad.
Dr Coogan: I’m sorry, the world is very cruel.
SCP: No. Humans are. The world is simply a stage for their sinful acts.
Dr Coogan: But your human. How does that make you feel?
SCP: Proud.
Dr Coogan: You’ve lost me.
SCP: Only a devil can live without hope. I have not just experience the bad, I’ve seen much of the world. So much beauty and so much chaos, and sometimes beautiful chaos. So many stories, lives, and things to see. So much pain and pleasure of the mind and body to feel. I know humanity can achieve something. But I am sick and tired of the world taking so long to get there. How many more murders, bombings, cultural division, shootings, and suffering will it take until I can enjoy one (1) day on this earth without a drunk driver killing a small family of four (4). It really is enough to drive you completely mad. There needs to be a culling. ‘Moral law’ can go fuck itself. I won’t ever forget that I’m human, but it’s time to remind others that they are. And very mortal.
Dr Coogan: I’m… impressed.
SCP: I see people differently.
Dr Coogan: Pardon?
SCP: I don’t know when I could. But I see peoples… truths? There life? Their heart? Their pain? Their… spirt? Soul? Life force? DEMONS? ANGELS? I DON”T KNOW WHAT I SEE! Sorry, I can’t put a term to it.
Dr Coogan: I should say I think I understand. But I’d be lying.
SCP: I met a pregnant woman once, in a hospital. Because I knew what she did. When I saw her, I knew she had slept around and accused a hardworking man of rape and forced him to pay for child support. The media turned this man’s public image into a living hell, he lost his job, his girlfriend, and he was indebted for life. So he killed himself. The suffering she caused while she happily relaxed with peace of mind was infuriating. I confronted her at night and I was so happy at how I turned that upside-down frown back around. I had enough evidence to prove he was innocent, and put her away in prison for life. Sadly the child would’ve been taken away. But I’m not that cruel. I didn’t want the child to suffer. So I stuck my arm in and ripped out the fetus.
Dr Coogan: Interesting. So you wounded Dr—— on account of what?
SCP: At his last site posting, they had a breach. And he was the first to arrive at the emergency bunker. But the coward locked himself in before the rest of his colleagues came. Covered it up claiming faulty maintenance. Seven (7) men and two (2) women died because of his actions.
Dr Coogan: He does have a degree in electrical engineering. How about, if you agree to some tests, so I can confirm your said abilities. Then say I file a report about his actions against the foundation.
SCP: I really like you doc. (Subject has a laughing fit). By the way will I speak to you again?
Dr Coogan: Very possible.
SCP: I look forward to meeting you and your colleagues. I have heard about this Dr B—— fellow.
End Log An Investigation into the events related to Dr ██████ has shown what XXXX claimed was true
Subject was shown several forms of media and entertainment material that is considered to be humerus and funny. Of all the material shown, subject seemed to react humorously to the following:
- Comedic works of fiction
- SCP seems to find humour mainly in worlds of fiction. When these jokes are repeated in the real world or given live performances, SCP loses all comedic understanding of the moment, unless seen again in its original fictional setting.
- Illogical and random reasoning within reality
XXXX's physical limit is to be ascertained in order to improve containment procedures.
Results:
- Subject exceled at close combat winning 100% of all close combat tests. Blades and blunt melee weapons are ineffective, at slowing down or crippling subject’s movement.
- Subject also appears to increase its attack ferocity throughout the engagement.
- When attempting to begin ranged combat testing, the subject denied the chance to use any of the firearms provided. Subject was persuaded to hold the gun for 2.8 seconds before it threw it away. Further testing has revealed the subject to be less aggressive when in proximity to a firearm. Personal are now to be equipped with standard issue M9 pistols when interacting with the SCP.
- Regeneration capabilities
- XXXX can recover from any fatal bone fractures. Healing almost instantly.
- Subject can survive being impaled through any vital organ. Furthermore, cuts and bladed stab wounds can heal at an exceptional rate.
- Subject has also been shown to regrow entire organs and bones.
- The SCP’s body temperature can’t be changed by natural means. Furthermore the subject’s body can function normal in sub-zero temperatures and temperatures exceeding 100℃.
- Subject can manually control his internal body temperature, this still doesn’t affect its performance
- The subject's skin shows fire retardant properties.
- All sensory organs are diagnosed as hypersensitive, to an anomalous degree.
- Subject hates rayon fabric claiming “it feels like nails on a chalkboard when I touch it!”
- It can hear electrical currents that vibrate 1Hz-100,000Hz (the human norm being 20Hz-20,000Hz) and can pick up sounds from up to 120m away.
- Its eyes can detect smaller details easier, and see better in the dark.
- Its smell can identify the exact scent given off by certain animals, natural elements and chemicals.
- Its taste is too sensitive to ingest exotic foods. Note: more plain food like rice or chicken should be considered. Only if subject requests this. Subject does not need to eat to sustain or regenerate its body.
Subject’s blood, organ and skin tissue are unable to be infected by any of the following organic bacterium, virus and parasites. (NOTE: New chemicals/micro-organisms are tested on a monthly basis.)
- Brucellosis
- Carbapenem-resistant Infection
- Creutzfeldt-Jacob Disease
- Cyanide
- Draculaculiasis
- Heavy Metal Poisoning
- Hepatitis C,D,E
- Hookworm
- Human Immunodeficiency Virus/AIDS
- Influenza
- Malaria
- Meningitis
- Oestridae (Botfly)
- Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning
- Pustular Rash disease
- Small Pox
- Snake Venom
- Staphylococcal Infection
- Streptococcal Disease (Group A & B)
- Tuberculosis
- Vibrio Cholerae
- Yellow Fever
- Zika Virus Infection
- [REDACTED]
Upon further microscopic analysis, virions were viewed being rejected by the SCP’s cell membrane, the reason for this is unknown. Virions often continue repeating this until death.
- A single virion with a genetic copy of the host’s cell membrane was tested-Failed
Parasites appear to severely dislike inhabiting the subjects body. Any who entered XXXX's body have died in the host. I.e. Upon retrieval of ‘Draculaculiasis’ it was found dead and severely malnourished.
Bacteria doesn’t seem to utilise/ingest subjects bodily nutrients.
An ongoing theory, pending approval, is that any foreign diseases, can’t seem to mimic the subjects genetic material or organic compounds.
The SCP’s intelligence will be ascertained by a number of quizzes all varying levels of difficulty. The listed results are the most notable answers the subject has given.
Results:
- Subject was given the question “If 3x-y=12, what is the value of 8^x/2^y .” And instead wrote the formula in word form, albeit still ending up with the correct answer 2^12.
- XXXX was asked to write a narrative about a boy, SCP proceeded to write the novel “Harry Potter and the Philosopher Stone” in 24hrs. But with extra story about Malfoy’s origin.
- Subject completed 23 cross words in 28mins.
- SCP was tasked to identify a flaw in the programming of a Microsoft PC’s code, and if possible attempt to fix it. SCP then rewrote the entire system program. Reformatting the software to function like an Apple brand laptop. (albeit with multiple technical flaws)
- SCP was asked if it spoke multiple languages, subject spoke Russian, Latin, German, “The Queens English" and more. However the subject didn’t know the other languages it spoke. Following this statement Dr Coogan order the following untranslated text; 1 haiku, 1 love letter, 1 Tanakh (Hebrew Bible), and 1 image of Mayan Hieroglyphs. After 2hrs of inspecting the texts, the subject could speak and write in Japanese, French, Hebrew and Mayan.
As compensation for the subject's compliance with its testing, it has since requested for room furnishings and digital entertainment devices. Subject had also requested the following:
Paints and canvases
Philosophical Texts
Sophie’s World - Jostein Gaarder
Meditations - Marcus Aurelius
Man’s Search for Meaning - Viktor Frankl
Beyond Good and Evil - Nietzsche
The Art of War - Sun Tzu
Past the Shallows - Favel Parrett
A high definition television
The latest Gaming console: and $60 a month to purchase a game
A computer with a stable internet connection (previously DENIED. An AI manually blocks any website or video. that is likely to cause the subject distress)
A 30-year-old female from the Researcher team (DENIED)
Interview Log 3
Foreword: The murders by SCP-XXXX before its containment have created multiple missing person reports. The foundation has been tasked with creating a cover up story. XXXX has agreed to cooperate with the foundation in identifying individuals it has had involvement with.
Interviewer: Dr████
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Begin Log
Dr████: This interview log 3 with SCP and Dr ████. How are you today SCP?
SCP: Strange
Dr████: Anything a problem?
SCP: No.
Dr████: Well, before we get into our first question. The researcher staff want to know why you didn’t like to use guns?
SCP: Because they’re the weapons of the powerless.
Dr████: How so?
SCP: Because any person who uses a gun knows they’re too stupid and useless to be of any use, or achieve anything themselves. A gun gives a man the feeling and false sense of power. Makes them think they matter and are important in the world because they can wield power. It’s cheating. And I hate guns for the sole reason that anyone can win any argument or fight when barrel is pointed at the head. Even when their wrong.
Dr████: Thank you for providing us with that small drop of wisdom. We have more questions we hope to ask you, about some of the victims you might be responsible for.
SCP: mumbles the word justified
Dr████: We are still trying to locate the bodies of 12 people, who went missing during your killing spree across the U.S. Right now we have accounted for at least one hundred and thirty seven (137) people you’ve killed. Could you tell us if you recognise these people? (Dr ████ pulls out 4 photos, one of them is illegal fire-arms dealer [REDACTED], the second is failed surgeon [REDACTED], the third is a young school boy [REDACTED] and the fourth is his younger sister [REDACTED].
SCP: (SCP inspects the second picture) I talked to him when he was getting his coffee one day. He felt guilty at failing to save his wife. A car crash by some idiot. But he couldn’t forgive himself when his wife died on his own operating table.
Dr████: He was found in his home dead. Reports indicated he committed suicide.
SCP: I didn’t kill him.
Dr████: But you did talk to him!? What did you say?
SCP: I don’t remember fully. Talked about how vampires’ fangs and claws are indicative of humanity’s capacity for violence. Werewolves being people’s primal freedom and Viking raiders. I think there was something else, then I ended our conversation saying “When you gaze into that abyss, the abyss gazes back at you, be careful. Don’t to get sucked into the madness.” He sat quietly while he finished his coffee for the next 15mins and then left. Didn’t even say thank you.
Dr████: And that was the last you saw of him?
SCP: Yes. (SCP inspects the photos again) The boy and the girl. (SCP remains silent)
Dr████: They were found smiling in their beds with bruising on the boy and cigarette butts on the girl, both had traces of cyanide in their blood.
SCP: Yeah. He had bruise on the left half of his face. Trailed him home. Found his drunken wreck of a mom, and his scared little sister. Killed the mom. And comforted them both for the evening. The next day I took them to a place I was staying at, I treated them to a trip at the mall buying all the candy, toys, and other goodies. I bought a movie that was perfect them and we watched it together. (Tears start to leak out of XXXX eyes) I won’t forget their smiles. But I saw what would happen in lives, and I couldn’t bear it. I told them probably one best of my best stories ever, and said goodnight to them. Then I slipped them some cyanide while they slept.
Dr████: What about him? (Dr ████ gestures to the first picture)
SCP: Now him, I remember well. I kidnapped him and took him to a basement in [REDACTED] Mississippi. Don’t know how long I was down there for, but when I was done with him I came back out and there was about a foot of snow outside, before we entered I could’ve sworn it wasn’t winter. I had so much fun with him and that potato peeler. It was funny as hell.
Dr████: Why was it funny?
SCP: He was Irish. (SCP gradually begins to have a laughing fit).
Dr████: Thank you SCP. (Dr moves to stop the recording)
SCP:: Don’t press that button doc.
Dr████: What do—-
SCP: No, you shut and just listen! Do you know when people laugh now a days, we always must consider whether what we’re laughing at is okay. That we are worried someone will think poorly of us and spread the word that you don’t conform to their ideals that you are racist, sexist or such and such. Why aren’t we allowed to laugh freely? What happened to sympathy? Nowadays no matter how much you claw, kick and scream at the top of your lungs, no one will even care. The world expects us to live our lives with this idea, of order, which consists of the individual looking at their future, past and present troubles all at once! We’re not doctor Manhattan for crying out loud! But did you also know, to simply revert back to survival and do only what we see in front of us is extremely liberating. But now the world has gypsy’s raising sons for the soul purpose to fight each other, powerful old men who resent change and a serious problem with what’s good and evil! I don’t want out there, anymore.
Dr████: Why?
SCP: Because being alone is f—ing addictive, when you realise how peaceful it is. Plus, I get privileges here.
Dr████: Thank you for that SCP—-
SCP: (SCP reaches across the desk and grabs Dr████'s collar) Because only in MADDNESS does everything makes sense! HAHAHAHA- (Recording is cut.)

Subject was being escorted for monthly pathogen testing, the normal route was under cleaning maintenance, therefore the pathing had been rerouted through Large-Heavy Containment. Unknown to the escort personnel was SCP-4715’s containment chamber. At 10m past 4715’s containment boundary all personnel (including escort personnel) in a 30m radius of 4715 began clutching at their heads while crying. 10sec later 2 staff members begun bashing their own heads at a wall, while the rest assaulted each other. This went for 15mins before all staff were dead. During this, SCP 4715 had been rapidly growing and shrinking, vocalising what is assumed as cries of pain or distress. 4715 passed out after 27mins. Camera footage showed that XXXX did not move or react while this took place. The retrieval noted that SCP-XXXX was unscathed by the escort team.

Begin Log
Dr Coogan: This is interview log 7. Interviewer Dr Coogan. Interviewee SCP. Hello SCP. You’ve been interesting to watch these last few weeks.
SCP: Why?
Dr Coogan: You’re quiet. And you’re less spastic. What have you discovered?
SCP: Silence.
Dr Coogan: (writes notes) Was there noise before?
SCP: Probably.
Dr Coogan: Was it a disembodied voice?
SCP: My voice.
Dr Coogan: Right. Do you feel more clear minded?
SCP: I’d still kill.
Dr Coogan: (writes notes) Can I say, you are an interesting person. But you make me question whether what you do is either mad or brilliant.
SCP: You be surprised how much both have in common. Can I just be alone please.
Dr Coogan: SCP we still have questions to get through.
The Tape is cut short when XXXX throws the table against the wall without leaving the chair. Dr Coogan is unharmed. And leaves.
End Log
Researcher Note- After watching him for this long. I believe he has gone through more than any person in the world. And he has nothing to lose. But he is content to remain contained if we provide him with means to make his life enjoyable. I’m not sure if he’s contained though. So I am considering classifying him as Keter. To reinforce my decision, after looking into his involvement in Russia more, I’ve theorised he knew the Russian’s launch codes.
[[footnoteblock]]
Special Containment Procedures: Subject is to be contained in a steel humanoid containment cell 10m x 10m x 10m, with a 1m layer of custom sound proofing Vinyl and Mineral Wool on each wall's exterior. The room lighting is purposely dimed to 500 lumens, per subjects request, and shouldn’t exceed 800 lumens. No electrical breakers or key wiring should run along the inner containment chamber’s walls (to prevent the removal and possible repurposing of these circuits). An one-way mirror observation room is stationed 7ms up the north wall. The entrance is situated on the south wall and uses a 3m x 2m x 2m airlock/passage before leading into ████████'s corridor. Within the airlock are 4 automated sentry turrets, equipped with the latest motion tracking software, the turrets are only active when no site personnel are present chamber.
Subject is allowed several luxuries and forms of pleasure and entertainment to allow safer and easier containment of it. Such items include but are not limited to 1-100inch TV monitor, 1-████████ Bed, several paints and canvases, ████ videogame systems, 1-████████████ couch, and 1 custom made trampoline. Any broken furniture should be replaced promptly by the on-site's clean up team. Subject is also further allowed to request certain items to maintain its compliance. If the request is denied, denial should be given with appropriate and logical reasoning. (see incident report 2)
Parameters for a Request
- No Staff or Site personal
- No Object that can be converted into a weapon
- No 'World Event' media or non-fiction material relaying the events of the world
- No sentient or non-sentient SCP's
- Only selected D-Class to play games with
- One household pet or animal at at time
- Food from the on-site cafeteria's daily menu
In the south west corner is an iron suit, hence referred to as ‘the broker’. The broker is made with the exact dimensions of XXXX from the neck down to the subject's digits. On the outside of the broker's left arm is an electronic hinge that is remotely controlled by staff. On the opposite side is an electro-magnetic release lock that will activate upon the broker closing. The broker is to be used for transportation of the SCP and when inducting newly assigned staff. All new personnel who intended to interact or speak directly with subject must undergo the judgement procedure (as described): Staff must have a full, detailed, mandatory, background check. Any event in the person’s life that is considered as cruel or immoral are to discontinue the procedure immediately. Upon passing the background check, XXXX will be asked to wear the provided blindfold and to step into the broker. 2 security guards will escort the personal into chamber and remove the blindfold from the subject when authorized by the head researcher. A blindfold should also be used whenever transporting the subject. If SCP-XXXX’s reaction is of no threat to the staff present, they are permitted to interact with XXXX. If subject becomes agitated upon seeing the staff, they must must evacuate and be transported off-site with no knowledge of the destination reaching any researcher linked to the studing of XXXX. The researcher may return to the site after 6 months, or with the 05 Council's approval.
Researchers Note- the guards should also have completed the judgement procedure.
Should any attempt by XXXX to breach its containment, the fail-safe will active flooding the cell with a 1000000L mixture of water and liquid nitrogen. Should this be unsuccessful on-site MTF and security guards are to quarantine the sector. Squads should also mobilize and guard all important on-site assets. Commander R. Matthews will assume tactical superiority and coordinate from ████████████. Squads are authorized to use deadly force and remain within close proximity, and also to check in often.
Description: SCP-XXXX is an unknown human male of Caucasian heritage. XXXX is 1.89ms in height and 63.27 kilograms and resembles a healthy athletic 18yr. Notable features are the following: missing irises and perfectly straight teeth. SCP is by all accounts considered a mentally deranged mastermind severely traumatized person cunning mad man an unpredictable and dangerous psychopath that has several anomalous abilities (See list below), and displays a high aptitude level for both physical and mental tasks. Primary anomalous consist of it be able to contort its body where it shouldn't be possible and heal at an accelerated rate, among others (See Additional Anomalous Properties).
Subject's psychiatric evaluation continues to be inconclusive, however MRI scans suggests 1 or multiple mental disorders. Scans show the subject possibly having the following: Bipolar disorder, Multiple Personalities, OCD, DID, Asperger syndrome, Autism, Schizophrenia, Clinical Depression, Kleptomania, “a brain tumor”, or “exposure to something anomalous”.
After XXXX had been in the MRI scanner for 20mins the MRI program crashed, engineers reported the image reader malfunctioning.
However the subject’s most notable anomalous property is its ability to see people’s life choices. Theory is that it can see an individual’s history/past, almost retaining everything the individual has seen through their eyes. If XXXX establishes visual contact with an immoral individual, subject will likely proceed to assault them, eliminating them in extremely grotesque methods. (see interview log 1)
Additional anomalous properties:
- Subject is able to control his center of gravity. This lets the subject scale walls, ceilings and move at high speeds from 36km/h – N/A
- No sustenance or rest is required to maintain bodily functions. (However subject enjoys eating food)
- Mimicry of voices, male and female
- Its body is immune to pain and lacerations. Any blade or sharp object that cuts through its body will leave an outline of where the incision was made, but the skin will not separate. Healing is almost instant, depending on size, healing can take from 2.2-5sec.
- Serious damage from firearms has shown to incapacitate the subject, but it will do whatever it can to prevent this damage.
- Furthermore firearms are the most effective at harming the subject. This reason is yet to be understood.
- Subject can regenerate lost body tissue and vital organs, but at rates of 2-7 weeks
- The subject is capable of bending
For more details regarding subjects anomalous properties see the Testing Logs.
Researchers Note- Subject claims its body obeys its will.
XXXX displays 4 certain behavior patterns. These behaviors have been documented to reduce any concern or distress the staff may have for the subject.
- Common Behavior: Subject will remain passive, and will actively seek something it finds entertaining. Subject’s personality is inconsistent while like this. Staff have reported him acting polite, vulgar, respectful, intrusive, satisfied, menacing or sympathetic.
- Behavior A: Subject will float slowly around the cell, sometimes curled into the fetal position. It will change direction upon making contact with any of the cell’s surfaces. XXXX is considered to be docile in this state.
- Behavior B: Subject displays sadomasochistic behaviours. Aggression varies, i.e. smacking himself in the face or repeatedly throwing himself into the wall. XXXX doesn’t appear bothered by the pain.
- Behavior C: XXXX will talk very quickly to himself. Normally pacing around the cell floor, wall and ceiling. Subject tends to laugh when doing this. Though the subject often discusses other topics such as human philosophy and social issues.
Any behavior that doesn’t match these is to be reported to head researcher Dr.Coogan
SCP-XXXX-Recovery: Subject was apprehended Moscow Russia on the 15th of October ████. Several reports of a murderer with finger prints and DNA being untraceable drew foundation attention. It was later determined that these murders where linked to a string of previous murders trailing through the USA and Canada before appearing in Russia. A total of 108 victims, 65 Males and 43 Females, where linked to the unidentified killer. Foundation took exclusive interest on 7 murders in Russia being KGB agents. Russian Officials colluded with Foundation personal to identify the culprit. The KGB has allowed the foundation to document the following security records. 2 agents, whose names were withheld, were guarding ████████ at ████████████. 2 hidden cameras where watching the site. At approximately 1:35pm a hooded individual (which has now been confirmed as SCP) approached them. Agents attempted to kindly ask the individual to leave. SCP then looked directly where the hidden cameras are placed and displayed an eerily large grin. Any further information dictating the event and who they were guarding have been withheld by the KGB. Foundation began monitoring the city of Moscow were the majority of recent murders related to the SCP have occurred. On October 12th, Agent Kesha reported that an individual had walked into a police station, and opened his jacket to reveal custom-made explosives. He was then arrested on the spot and detained. 3 Days later Agent Kesha arrived at the holding cell after she heard suspicious reports of anomalous activity. Several lawmen and detainees had come within 3m of the individual suffered serious bodily harm. Agent Kesha contacted MTF-Xi-3 (Body Snatchers) for support. The suspect was found sitting cross legged on the ceiling, and proceeded to be detained with no resistance. All officers employed at the station where given Class-G amnesties.
Researchers Note- Subject remained strangely calm and docile while being moved into foundation custody. Contradictory to his supposed violent and aggressive nature.
Incident-XXXX-1
Foreword: Subject had remained motionless since day of containment. Attempts at provoking a response had begun as ‘Response Testing’, - days since containment. 3 D-class personnel were selected at random each day and tasked to invoke any form of response in subject. The containment procedure for the testing was an air tight medium steel containment unit with a plexiglass wall in the middle to prevent any D-class directly interacting.
Response Testing-7: 1st D-Class was a former musician/ convicted felon. D-class was asked to play the flute and guitar provided. D-class was asked to keep playing for 3mins. No response from SCP. 2nd D-class was a former photographer, D-class was ordered to arrange and organize the given ornaments and photograph it. Response given by SCP in the form of a single glance. D-class asked to return to his cell after 7mins as he claims he was “feeling past tendencies coming back.” Request granted. 3rd D-class was given a 9mm Smith and Weston and a 3-week-old Golden Retriever before entering room. D-class is ordered to play with the puppy. Response triggered in the subject. Subject sits up and crawls to the bottom of plexiglass and presses his hands against it, smiling. D-class is given the signal. D-class terminates the dog in 2 shots. Subject remain motionless for 8.3secs then crawls back to the previous sitting position. Subject is silent for 3 seconds before breaking out into laughter. Laughter continues for approximately the next 10hrs. Testing is postponed. D-class 2 and 3 are asked to meet together and discuss what they did in front of subject. No reaction is invoked in subject until 11mins into their discussion. SCP stands using only his legs, while his torso rolls up along his spinal vertebra to a neutral posture, before slowly advancing to the glass. Both D-class don’t notice the subject’s presence. Subject then aggressively smacks his hand against the glass startling both D-class. Subject then rapidly jerks his head between the 2 D-class for 15 seconds, camera audio faintly picked up a sound that is assumed to be the cracking of the subject’s neck vertebrae. Subject then repeatedly, and at an increasing pace, slams his cranium against the glass until it shatters. The glass causes a gash in subject’s head which sprayed blood over most of the room’s interior. Subject kills the first D-class by digging his fingers into the D-class’ facial orifices, nasal and eye sockets, subject then rips the skull apart scattering bone fragments and brain tissue all over the chamber. Subject then tears off the second D-class’s arms and forcibly shoves them down his throat, the second D-class dies of asphyxiation. Subject then dances with the headless corpse of the first D-class for 13min. Later the subject uses the second D-class’s blood to write on the wall in German “Alles hat ein Ende, nur die Wurst hat zwei.” Translated “Everything has an end, only the sausage has two.” Subject then collapses laughing. Subject was restrained after Research staff concluded the testing. Containment procedures reworked.
Additional Note- After this Incident subject is assumed to be a sadistic and masochistic. Psychiatric staff are unable to explain why SCP laughed at the dog. Subject is henceforth classified as Euclid.
Incident-XXXX-2
Foreword: Updated containment procedures keep XXX in a heavy-duty containment cell and restrained to a steel table lifted on an angle of 70’ to assist with swallowing food. Restraints consisted of 4 stainless steel shackles 2mm x 75mm x 100mm around subject’s wrists and ankles. 1 leather strap 2mm x 75mm x 120mm around neck with padding. And 1 leather harness 3mm x 950mm x 500mm around torso.
Researcher staff agreed to monitor behavior for 30 days before any direct interaction is made. Subject had been confined for 14 days, 11hrs and 13mins, leading up to the breach. During this time subject had requested to be given some form of freedom or entertainment multiple times. These were of course denied. █/█/█ subject began acting restless, struggling against restraints and begging for release before ceasing all movement for the remaining 15days. Upon examination SCP was discovered deceased. Doctor Coogan immediately ordered SCP to be wheeled out, still in restraints, to the labs for full autopsy report. Lab C - Camera 2 recorded the following. Dr ████████ and ████████ began to examine the condition of the body, moments later, subject starts convulsing and then wakes. Subject then proceeds to dislocate his ankles and thumbs allowing him to pull his limbs out the restraints. Subject snaps off the remaining harness restraint and begins assaulting all staff present while laughing. On-site MTF were alerted and captured the subject after ██hrs. See interview log 1 with task force member Captain Robert Matthews.

Interviewed: Captain R. Matthews member of task force ██████ now re-designated as leader of personnel task force “Gun Control”.
Interviewer: Dr Coogan
Begin Log
Dr Coogan: this is Doctor Coogan, interview log with Cpt Matthews. Questions on the subject’s anomalous abilities. Can you confirm that you observed SCP anomalies?
Matthews: Yeah, I “observed” him in action.
Dr Coogan: can you describe what you saw.
Matthews: okay f—k, well the guy was creeping on the walls like Spider-Man. Laughing while he tore my men limb from limb.
Dr Coogan: can you elaborate for us, preferably from the beginning please?
Matthew: I hadn’t checked my watch for last hour so about ████ afternoon. It was my turn to get coffee and I just got back when a containment breach went off inside the testing labs. I chugged my coffee before grabbing my gear, and met my squad at sector T’s elevator. Everyone was quiet while I relayed the information of SCP on the way down, basically I got told “subject was a male humanoid entity that was recently captured.” And that all we knew about him-it were “random violent outbursts and that he had weird body movement.” That was next to nothing looking back.
Dr Coogan: you were the leader of your squad of, twenty (20) men, you included, correct?
Matthews: yeah, I was… hey can I smoke. *lights and inhales cigarette* We split into four (4) teams of five (5), I was leading Team 1. We all agreed to converge at the lab in an hour of scouting sector T, but after the hour was up only Team 2 and us where there.
Dr Coogan: can you describe what you saw when you got there?
Image of the scene has been REDACTED by order of ██████. Site ███‘s testing labs are located along a hallway with 5 test labs (labelled A to E) each with its own 2m x 0.8m air tight door. Separating each door is a glass panel approximately 6m x 2.658m and 5cm thick. Increased security measures are in place on C, D and E (security clearance required).
Matthews: well my Team entered the from the south side while Team 2 entered from the north, most of the hallway was bleach white like the rest of the compound. Lab C’s window was smashed with what I assumed the face of one of the science staff. He was slumped over the strip of wall long enough for the blood to pool and reach the other side of the hall. Even with all the blood and broken glass the hallway was still fairly clean. *inhales cigarette* Except the wall had a bloody trail like someone crawled up it. Trail eventually lead to the north door. Team 2 said they saw it led on around the corner when coming in. Inside the lab, tables, shelves and other… surgical equipment… were either smashed or flipped upside down. I saw maybe 4 bodies amongst it all. We waited for Teams 3 and 4, *inhales cigarette* for at least 30mins, then I decide we should follow the trail. It lead to the cafeteria, then the trail started literally doing loopy loops on the ceiling. I decided to change the rendezvous, the hallway was claustrophobic for two (2) teams anyway. *inhales cigarette* Team 4 reported in, saying they were checking on the surveillance system hoping to find the SCP. Team 3 had gone radio silent. We checked coms every 5mins for the next 40mins, I think. Then Sam asks me “what did you say?” But I hadn’t said anything. Sam just looked at me confused like, but I don’t think he thought much about it, I started to panic a little so I tightened my grip while I held my breath and tried to listen-
Dr Coogan: what did you tighten your grip on? Remember we need specifics in these reports.
Matthews: my gun, I tightened my grip on my gun. And I nearly forgot to breath for a whole minute. Then I heard it “hey did you guys hear that?” My voice echoing in the room. I felt everyone turn to look at me and I was getting ready for what was next. I order everyone to form a defensive circle in the room’s centre. I called for names and, I don’t know when, but Sam was gone. We radio team 3 and 4 but get no response. Floyd then hears a voice from under a table and we find team 3’s radio transponder underneath. Something like wet footsteps started echoing in the room all around us. Then the fucking lights started falling and bursting. One of the lights fell on Conrad. I told, I think, Peter and Dylan, doesn’t matter now, to help him, while we all stood guard. The next five minutes were quieter than the inside of a coffin. *inhales cigarette* I ordered us all to switch to night vision. Peter then screamed as he pointed to the wall where a sad emoji looking face appeared, I think it was drawn in blood. It was simple and kind of cute actually. After I turned back around more sad bloody fucking faces appeared and then more as I looked up and down the walls. *inhales cigarette* Then I saw one of the faces was drawn with a smile in the corner of the ceiling. Next thing I feel is something shoulder charging into my left ribs. *inhales cigarette* I could hear my squad panicking. And then I saw him, he pressed me against the wall and twisted my neck until I felt a crack. I thought I was going to die and felt so scared. *Inhales cigarette* Then I realised I could still breath, and see, but I couldn’t feel a thing. I could barely think straight. Then he raised my head and, oh god those eyes.
(Matthews starts sobbing)
Then he kissed me, I could barely feel it but I knew he was kissing me tongue and all. He stops after, I don’t how long it was, but afterwards he propped my head up and tore up my men laughing… Knowing I was watching! He played with them like puppets… then he piled them up and just sat on it. Rocking back and forth on it while humming a fucking song…. I don’t remember seeing anything else but that thing for 2hrs until the next squad of men came in and restrained him. Why the fuck! Did he not do anything that time!
End Log Matthews became unable to cooperate at this point and was sedated and escorted for psychiatric rehabilitation

Dr: Can you start by telling me your name?
SCP: I don’t think I can.
Dr: Why is that.
SCP: Either I don’t remember, or I don’t want to.
Dr: You do have a name then?
SCP: Yes. Tell me what’s your name doc?
Dr: That is irrelevant.
SCP: Well Dr. irrelevant, it’s a pleasure to meet you.
Dr: Please cooperate. Are you human?
SCP: Always.
Dr: Do you know how your body gained these anomalous abilities?
SCP: hehe. Yeah.
Dr: Can you explain then?
SCP: Only if you say please.
Dr: Seriously?
SCP: Yes, seriously.
Dr: Can you “please” explain your anomalous abilities?
SCP: Thank you for asking so politely. Well if I were to convey what makes me tick. I’d have to say I’m twenty-seven (27) different flavours of mental lunacy, with a sprinkle of… everything.
Dr: Everything?
SCP: Yes.
Dr: What is everything?
SCP: Humanity. The world. The elements, whatever strikes your bargain.
Dr: Do you remember when you gained your anomalous abilities?
SCP: No. But I do remember feeling wrathful and despair like never before. Then he came to me.
Dr: Who came to you?
SCP: Me.
Dr: You?
SCP: Well no, not ‘I’ but ‘me’, and ‘me’ was ‘I’.
Dr: Can you please be more explicit in saying that.
(SCP starts twisting and contorting in its chair for fifteen (15) seconds before stopping and remaining silent)
Dr: Umm… okay so it was you who… came to you?
(SCP begins untangling itself) SCP: No. It wasn’t me. It was definitely someone else. Something not me… I think.
Dr: Another question to return too. Why are your irises devoid of any pigment?
SCP: Oh, The same time I forgot pain, I remember feeling my eyes roll out of their sockets, and then a scalpel cut through realities fleshy fabric and…(Laughing)
Dr: Didn’t you say that “you” came to yourself?
SCP: Did I? What do you think I said?
Dr: Okay (Dr██████ erases previous notes). What did you see?
SCP: I saw red dirt and silver blood leaking from a moon that I could touch. Horses with horns bent forward and skin that gleamed like it just came out a furnace. They were all vibrating like a maraca while hissing spit with a three-pronged tongue. It all made me feel so happy.
Dr: Why?
SCP: Because it all made sense.
Dr: Why did that make sense? And how were you able to understand it?
SCP: Well doc, the only way to understand it, is to be confidently mad.
Dr: How does—
SCP: Someone becomes mad like any person would. Copious amounts of pain. (SCP starts to have what looks like a mild seizure before snapping back into sitting position)
Dr: Do you remember who or what caused you such pain.
SCP: (SCP begins laughing) The world.
End Log XXXX continued to laugh for the next 5 hours.
Interview Log 2-D
Foreword: Further interviews have been inconsistent with the information the subject provides. Subject has retold the events provided in 3 more different ways. Any information provided about the SCP’s background is to be assumed as false. However, subject has been consistently stating, that the 'world' is the catalyst for his anomalous abilities.

Dr Coogan: Hello SCP my name is Dr Coogan. I am your head researcher so to speak.
SCP: Congratulations.
Dr Coogan: As much as we don’t know about you… I know your human because firstly your anatomy is. Secondly you remind me of human condition. However, you defy a lot of logic in the modern world. Also, at times you find humour in quite brutal acts of violence. In my opinion that’s all I need to know to speak with you.
SCP: I like you doctor. You’re brave.
Dr Coogan: Anyone should be if they came in here with you.
SCP: I needed to be feared. Because what you fear is what you pay more attention too. (Giggling)
Dr Coogan: You don’t do this for attention.
(SCP remains silent while staring at Dr Coogan)
SCP: Now you have mine. What do you want to know.
Dr Coogan: I want to get to know you like a friend. No following any documentation procedures. Just a normal intelligent conversation.
SCP: I’d like that… Please ask me anything.
Dr Coogan: This will of course be recorded. Are you okay with that?
(SCP nods)
Dr Coogan: Well something that has been bothering me. What was the song you were humming after you slaughtered all of —-‘s men.
SCP: Frère Jacques.
Dr Coogan: Ah, I remember that. ‘Frère Jacques Frère Jacques Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous?’. So do you like tales?
SCP: I can use them to escape.
Dr Coogan: You mean… stories?
SCP: Yes.
Dr Coogan: What are you running from?
SCP: (SCP closes its eyes) I've suffered everything. I’ve had icicles penetrate and burn every nerve in me and I’ve felt my skin melt under the pain of an obsequious fire. And no matter how much I tried the world took all I had from me. Always I tried to make some sense of the world, but it had me pinned, screaming in my face. And all that screaming never made sense! Then I went mad. Afterwards is (SCP remains silent for the next 15sec), and then the world all made sense. I learned the only way to understand the world is to be completely insane. Then before I knew I couldn’t make sense of myself. “I”(SCP points to his whole body) went mad.
Dr Coogan: I’m sorry, the world is very cruel.
SCP: No. Humans are. The world is simply a stage for their sinful acts.
Dr Coogan: But your human. How does that make you feel?
SCP: Proud.
Dr Coogan: You’ve lost me.
SCP: Only a devil can live without hope. I have not just experience the bad, I’ve seen much of the world. So much beauty and so much chaos, and sometimes beautiful chaos. So many stories, lives, and things to see. So much pain and pleasure of the mind and body to feel. I know humanity can achieve something. But I am sick and tired of the world taking so long to get there. How many more murders, bombings, cultural division, shootings, and suffering will it take until I can enjoy one (1) day on this earth without a drunk driver killing a small family of four (4). It really is enough to drive you completely mad. There needs to be a culling. ‘Moral law’ can go fuck itself. I won’t ever forget that I’m human, but it’s time to remind others that they are. And very mortal.
Dr Coogan: I’m… impressed.
SCP: I see people differently.
Dr Coogan: Pardon?
SCP: I don’t know when I could. But I see peoples… truths? There life? Their heart? Their pain? Their… spirt? Soul? Life force? DEMONS? ANGELS? I DON”T KNOW WHAT I SEE! Sorry, I can’t put a term to it.
Dr Coogan: I should say I think I understand. But I’d be lying.
SCP: I met a pregnant woman once, in a hospital. Because I knew what she did. When I saw her, I knew she had slept around and accused a hardworking man of rape and forced him to pay for child support. The media turned this man’s public image into a living hell, he lost his job, his girlfriend, and he was indebted for life. So he killed himself. The suffering she caused while she happily relaxed with peace of mind was infuriating. I confronted her at night and I was so happy at how I turned that upside-down frown back around. I had enough evidence to prove he was innocent, and put her away in prison for life. Sadly the child would’ve been taken away. But I’m not that cruel. I didn’t want the child to suffer. So I stuck my arm in and ripped out the fetus.
Dr Coogan: Interesting. So you wounded Dr—— on account of what?
SCP: At his last site posting, they had a breach. And he was the first to arrive at the emergency bunker. But the coward locked himself in before the rest of his colleagues came. Covered it up claiming faulty maintenance. Seven (7) men and two (2) women died because of his actions.
Dr Coogan: He does have a degree in electrical engineering. How about, if you agree to some tests, so I can confirm your said abilities. Then say I file a report about his actions against the foundation.
SCP: I really like you doc. (Subject has a laughing fit). By the way will I speak to you again?
Dr Coogan: Very possible.
SCP: I look forward to meeting you and your colleagues. I have heard about this Dr B—— fellow.
End Log An Investigation into the events related to Dr ██████ has shown what XXXX claimed was true
Subject was shown several forms of media and entertainment material that is considered to be humerus and funny. Of all the material shown, subject seemed to react humorously to the following:
- Comedic works of fiction
- SCP seems to find humour mainly in worlds of fiction. When these jokes are repeated in the real world or given live performances, SCP loses all comedic understanding of the moment, unless seen again in its original fictional setting.
- Illogical and random reasoning within reality
XXXX's physical limit is to be ascertained in order to improve containment procedures.
Results:
- Subject exceled at close combat winning 100% of all close combat tests. Blades and blunt melee weapons are ineffective, at slowing down or crippling subject’s movement.
- Subject also appears to increase its attack ferocity throughout the engagement.
- When attempting to begin ranged combat testing, the subject denied the chance to use any of the firearms provided. Subject was persuaded to hold the gun for 2.8 seconds before it threw it away. Further testing has revealed the subject to be less aggressive when in proximity to a firearm. Personal are now to be equipped with standard issue M9 pistols when interacting with the SCP.
- Regeneration capabilities
- XXXX can recover from any fatal bone fractures. Healing almost instantly.
- Subject can survive being impaled through any vital organ. Furthermore, cuts and bladed stab wounds can heal at an exceptional rate.
- Subject has also been shown to regrow entire organs and bones.
- The SCP’s body temperature can’t be changed by natural means. Furthermore the subject’s body can function normal in sub-zero temperatures and temperatures exceeding 100℃.
- Subject can manually control his internal body temperature, this still doesn’t affect its performance
- The subject's skin shows fire retardant properties.
- All sensory organs are diagnosed as hypersensitive, to an anomalous degree.
- Subject hates rayon fabric claiming “it feels like nails on a chalkboard when I touch it!”
- It can hear electrical currents that vibrate 1Hz-100,000Hz (the human norm being 20Hz-20,000Hz) and can pick up sounds from up to 120m away.
- Its eyes can detect smaller details easier, and see better in the dark.
- Its smell can identify the exact scent given off by certain animals, natural elements and chemicals.
- Its taste is too sensitive to ingest exotic foods. Note: more plain food like rice or chicken should be considered. Only if subject requests this. Subject does not need to eat to sustain or regenerate its body.
Subject’s blood, organ and skin tissue are unable to be infected by any of the following organic bacterium, virus and parasites. (NOTE: New chemicals/micro-organisms are tested on a monthly basis.)
- Brucellosis
- Carbapenem-resistant Infection
- Creutzfeldt-Jacob Disease
- Cyanide
- Draculaculiasis
- Heavy Metal Poisoning
- Hepatitis C,D,E
- Hookworm
- Human Immunodeficiency Virus/AIDS
- Influenza
- Malaria
- Meningitis
- Oestridae (Botfly)
- Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning
- Pustular Rash disease
- Small Pox
- Snake Venom
- Staphylococcal Infection
- Streptococcal Disease (Group A & B)
- Tuberculosis
- Vibrio Cholerae
- Yellow Fever
- Zika Virus Infection
- [REDACTED]
Upon further microscopic analysis, virions were viewed being rejected by the SCP’s cell membrane, the reason for this is unknown. Virions often continue repeating this until death.
- A single virion with a genetic copy of the host’s cell membrane was tested-Failed
Parasites appear to severely dislike inhabiting the subjects body. Any who entered XXXX's body have died in the host. I.e. Upon retrieval of ‘Draculaculiasis’ it was found dead and severely malnourished.
Bacteria doesn’t seem to utilise/ingest subjects bodily nutrients.
An ongoing theory, pending approval, is that any foreign diseases, can’t seem to mimic the subjects genetic material or organic compounds.
The SCP’s intelligence will be ascertained by a number of quizzes all varying levels of difficulty. The listed results are the most notable answers the subject has given.
Results:
- Subject was given the question “If 3x-y=12, what is the value of 8^x/2^y .” And instead wrote the formula in word form, albeit still ending up with the correct answer 2^12.
- XXXX was asked to write a narrative about a boy, SCP proceeded to write the novel “Harry Potter and the Philosopher Stone” in 24hrs. But with extra story about Malfoy’s origin.
- Subject completed 23 cross words in 28mins.
- SCP was tasked to identify a flaw in the programming of a Microsoft PC’s code, and if possible attempt to fix it. SCP then rewrote the entire system program. Reformatting the software to function like an Apple brand laptop. (albeit with multiple technical flaws)
- SCP was asked if it spoke multiple languages, subject spoke Russian, Latin, German, “The Queens English" and more. However the subject didn’t know the other languages it spoke. Following this statement Dr Coogan order the following untranslated text; 1 haiku, 1 love letter, 1 Tanakh (Hebrew Bible), and 1 image of Mayan Hieroglyphs. After 2hrs of inspecting the texts, the subject could speak and write in Japanese, French, Hebrew and Mayan.
As compensation for the subject's compliance with its testing, it has since requested for room furnishings and digital entertainment devices. Subject had also requested the following:
Paints and canvases
Philosophical Texts
Sophie’s World - Jostein Gaarder
Meditations - Marcus Aurelius
Man’s Search for Meaning - Viktor Frankl
Beyond Good and Evil - Nietzsche
The Art of War - Sun Tzu
Past the Shallows - Favel Parrett
A high definition television
The latest Gaming console: and $60 a month to purchase a game
A computer with a stable internet connection (previously DENIED. An AI manually blocks any website, video, game etc. that is likely to cause the subject distress)
A 30-year-old female from the Researcher team (DENIED)
Interview Log 3
Foreword: The murders by SCP-XXXX before its containment have created multiple missing person reports. The foundation has been tasked with creating a cover up story. XXXX has agreed to cooperate with the foundation in identifying individuals it has had involvement with.
Interviewer: Dr████
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Begin Log
Dr████: This interview log 3 with SCP and Dr ████. How are you today SCP?
SCP: Strange
Dr████: Anything a problem?
SCP: No.
Dr████: Well, before we get into our first question. The researcher staff want to know why you didn’t like to use guns?
SCP: Because they’re the weapons of the powerless.
Dr████: How so?
SCP: Because any person who uses a gun knows they’re too stupid and useless to be of any use, or achieve anything themselves. A gun gives a man the feeling and false sense of power. Makes them think they matter and are important in the world because they can wield power. It’s cheating. And I hate guns for the sole reason that anyone can win any argument or fight when barrel is pointed at the head. Even when their wrong.
Dr████: Thank you for providing us with that small drop of wisdom. We have more questions we hope to ask you, about some of the victims you might be responsible for.
SCP: mumbles the word justified
Dr████: We are still trying to locate the bodies of 12 people, who went missing during your killing spree across the U.S. Right now we have accounted for at least one hundred and thirty seven (137) people you’ve killed. Could you tell us if you recognise these people? (Dr ████ pulls out 4 photos, one of them is illegal fire-arms dealer [REDACTED], the second is failed surgeon [REDACTED], the third is a young school boy [REDACTED] and the fourth is his younger sister [REDACTED].
SCP: (SCP inspects the second picture) I talked to him when he was getting his coffee one day. He felt guilty at failing to save his wife. A car crash by some idiot. But he couldn’t forgive himself when his wife died on his own operating table.
Dr████: He was found in his home dead. Reports indicated he committed suicide.
SCP: I didn’t kill him.
Dr████: But you did talk to him!? What did you say?
SCP: I don’t remember fully. Talked about how vampires’ fangs and claws are indicative of humanity’s capacity for violence. Werewolves being people’s primal freedom and Viking raiders. I think there was something else, then I ended our conversation saying “When you gaze into that abyss, the abyss gazes back at you, be careful. Don’t to get sucked into the madness.” He sat quietly while he finished his coffee for the next 15mins and then left. Didn’t even say thank you.
Dr████: And that was the last you saw of him?
SCP: Yes. (SCP inspects the photos again) The boy and the girl. (SCP remains silent)
Dr████: They were found smiling in their beds with bruising on the boy and cigarette butts on the girl, both had traces of cyanide in their blood.
SCP: Yeah. He had bruise on the left half of his face. Trailed him home. Found his drunken wreck of a mom, and his scared little sister. Killed the mom. And comforted them both for the evening. The next day I took them to a place I was staying at, I treated them to a trip at the mall buying all the candy, toys, and other goodies. I bought a movie that was perfect them and we watched it together. (Tears start to leak out of XXXX eyes) I won’t forget their smiles. But I saw what would happen in lives, and I couldn’t bear it. I told them probably one best of my best stories ever, and said goodnight to them. Then I slipped them some cyanide while they slept.
Dr████: What about him? (Dr ████ gestures to the first picture)
SCP: Now him, I remember well. I kidnapped him and took him to a basement in [REDACTED] Mississippi. Don’t know how long I was down there for, but when I was done with him I came back out and there was about a foot of snow outside, before we entered I could’ve sworn it wasn’t winter. I had so much fun with him and that potato peeler. It was funny as hell.
Dr████: Why was it funny?
SCP: He was Irish. (SCP gradually begins to have a laughing fit).
Dr████: Thank you SCP. (Dr moves to stop the recording)
SCP:: Don’t press that button doc.
Dr████: What do—-
SCP: No, you shut and just listen! Do you know when people laugh now a days, we always must consider whether what we’re laughing at is okay. That we are worried someone will think poorly of us and spread the word that you don’t conform to their ideals that you are racist, sexist or such and such. Why aren’t we allowed to laugh freely? What happened to sympathy? Nowadays no matter how much you claw, kick and scream at the top of your lungs, no one will even care. The world expects us to live our lives with this idea, of order, which consists of the individual looking at their future, past and present troubles all at once! We’re not doctor Manhattan for crying out loud! But did you also know, to simply revert back to survival and do only what we see in front of us is extremely liberating. But now the world has gypsy’s raising sons for the soul purpose to fight each other, powerful old men who resent change and a serious problem with what’s good and evil! I don’t want out there, anymore.
Dr████: Why?
SCP: Because being alone is f—ing addictive, when you realise how peaceful it is. Plus, I get privileges here.
Dr████: Thank you for that SCP—-
SCP: (SCP reaches across the desk and grabs Dr████'s collar) Because only in MADDNESS does everything makes sense! HAHAHAHA- (Recording is cut.)

Addendum
Incident Report 3
Subject was being escorted for monthly pathogen testing, the normal route was under cleaning maintenance, therefore the pathing had been rerouted through Large-Heavy Containment. Unknown to the escort personnel was SCP-4715’s containment chamber. At 10m past 4715’s containment boundary all personnel (including escort personnel) in a 30m radius of 4715 began clutching at their heads while crying. 10sec later 2 staff members begun bashing their own heads at a wall, while the rest assaulted each other. This went for 15mins before all staff were dead. During this, SCP 4715 had been rapidly growing and shrinking, vocalising what is assumed as cries of pain or distress. 4715 passed out after 27mins. Camera footage showed that XXXX did not move or react while this took place. The retrieval noted that SCP-XXXX was unscathed by the escort team.

Dr Coogan: (writes notes) Was there noise before?
SCP: Probably.
Dr Coogan: Was it a disembodied voice?
SCP: My voice.
Dr Coogan: Right. Do you feel more clear minded?
SCP: I’d still kill.
Dr Coogan: (writes notes) Can I say, you are an interesting person. But you make me question whether what you do is either mad or brilliant.
SCP: You be surprised how much both have in common. Can I just be alone please.
Dr Coogan: SCP we still have questions to get through.
The Tape is cut short when XXXX throws the table against the wall without leaving the chair. Dr Coogan is unharmed. And leaves.
End Log
Researcher Note- After watching him for this long. I believe he has gone through more than any person in the world. And he has nothing to lose. But he is content to remain contained if we provide him with the means to make his life enjoyable. I’m still not sure if he’s contained though. So I am considering classifying him as Keter. To reinforce my decision, after looking into his involvement in Russia more, I’ve theorised he knew the Russian launch codes.
Wow! You flipped a card and got: Infiltration!!! You ca reload the page or go to the next.
DATE: 25 Feb 2021 03:56
Samuel was sitting in his office shared with Bentley, resting his legs on his desk, with his fedora draped partially over his face. He sighed and mumbled,
"We've certainly not done a ton in the last month, haven't we?"
Bentley was sitting at his desk across the room, facing opposite of Samuel's desk, fiddling with his thumbs as if he had nothing better to do. He responded,
"Yeah. I mean, we haven't even gotten paid yet."
They both sat in silence for a while. Bently eventually decided to switch from playing with his thumbs to solving a Rubix cube, which was sitting on his desk, gradually gaining layers of dust until then. Just as soon as Bently motioned his hand towards the cube, the daily intercom announcements came onto the loudspeakers, in a feminine voice. Before the voice could say anything other than,
"Hello! staff members!"
Bentley woke up Samuel by shouting,
"Hey! Announcements! Wake up!"
Sam woke up, startled. He moved too quickly and hit his knee on the edge of the desk. He sputtered,
"Wha- Announcement?"
Bently rolled his eyes and said,
"Yeah. Now shut up."
The voice of the announcer then broadcasted throughout the room, saying,
"Samuel Daniels and Bently Kirk, please see project director, James Thawfield, inside his office. Thank you all, for listening. Have a productive day, everyone!"
Soon after they heard the faint sound of the intercom being shut down, Sam said,
"This may be our first project here in a while… well, let's get a move on."
Sam moved to the door, holding it open and motioning Bently through. They traveled to a door at the end of the hallway. The door had a slightly blurred glass, centered on the door. There were bold, black words printed on the glass reading,
PROJECT DIRECTOR
JAMES THAWFIELD
Once the two men entered the small room only lit by a single blub at the top of the office, a stench of cigarette butts and smoke overcame their senses. The director was sitting at his desk, with his coat lazily hung over the back of his chair, revealing his black suspenders with brass buckles and a white, button-down shirt. In the corner of his mouth was a half-used cigarette, with the end of it burnt to a near crisp. He took it out of his mouth, putting it between his fingers, and lifting it upwards, leaving a small trail of smoke. He gestured at them,
"Come in, and get yourselves a chair, the both of ya."
He then let out a puff of smoke from his mouth, having it quickly fill up the room. He spun in his chair, reaching for a drawer behind his desk. Not too long later, he emerged back from behind his desk, returning with one yellow file. He threw them on his desk then said,
"We have quite an important matter to discuss."
He studied them, then exclaimed,
"Well, What are ya looking at? Sidown!"
Sam and Bently quickly moved to the two seats in the front of the director's office.
"Took ya long enough."
Bently worriedly said,
"What did you call us here for, Sir?"
The director responded,
"Well see, I have a job for you. It involves the infiltration of a group. A group called the Serpent's Hand. I need you to stay awhile, and then strike them from the inside."
He began to open and read the document inside the file, his cigarette still between his fingers.
Sam knew that group.
"Isn't that the group that is hell-bent on setting anomalies free? From us?"
The director sighed,
"Yes."
Sam also began to grow more concerned with the topic, and finally said,
"Bently and I specialize in things like tracking down groups of interest and people of interest. What makes you think we can pull off an infiltration? We are not good long term "secret keepers" ".
He looked up from the file for a moment, only to grimace and say,
"To be honest,"
He paused for a moment to take a puff of his cigarette.
"I had a gut feeling that you two would fit the job."
Sam though,
A "gut feeling" doesn't quite cut it
But he and Bently said nothing about it. Jame Thawfield took multiple minutes to view the file in front of them, every now and then glancing up at the two associates while Sam and Bently contemplated what they were getting themselves into. Once finished reading the file, the project director cut the silence of the room and said,
"You two are going to need robes."
Bently responded, confused.
"What-"
"We understand."
Sam interrupted. Bently gave him a look that could only be described as confusion.
"Well, alright. You two are excused."
Sam responded as he rose from his seat,
"Thank you, Sir."
As soon as Bently rose to exit, the project director cut in.
"Except you, Bently. I need you yet."
Bently slowly sat back down, looking even more confused. James looked at Sam for a moment before yelling,
"Well? Go!"
Sam looked concerned and turned to Bently. Nervously but in a reassuring tone, Bently said,
"Just leave, man. I'll be fine."
Sam walked down the hall back to his office. He sat down on his chair in silent contemplation.
What could be so important?
Just as he was gathering his thoughts, he heard Bently say,
"Alright. Will do sir."
Sam scrambled to sit upright at his desk as Bently opened the door and walked into the office. He was carrying two dark green robes over his arm, their belts strung with rope.
"What did he talk to you about?"
Bently shakily responded,
"Oh-that? He gave us some robes. You know, the ones he was talking about?"
Even though Sam knew that was not the case, but he decided not to press.
"Here. Take one."
Bently threw one of the replica robes to Sam. He caught it, then he spread it out on the desk before him. What immediately caught his eye was a gold outlined insignia of a tree.
"Oh and-"
Sam raised an eyebrow.
"We leave tomorrow. Get some rest."
The next day, Sam and Bently were standing atop a hill, facing a cave entrance which was dimly lit by torches, mounted to the sides of the cave.
