SCP-3518 - Irremovable Menhir
SCP-XXXX (on the left) with other Kerlescan menhirs, before incident XXXX
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: A simple 10m-radius security quarantine is to be established around SCP-XXXX and the surrounding standing stones, in the legal context of ongoing restoration of the site. A team of two Foundation agents is to be infiltrated at all times in the local headquarters of the CMN, and prevent any trespassing in the perimeter. The use of amnestics should not be necessary.
UPDATE ██/██/1987: Following incident XXXX, the security perimeter is to be reinforced, the disinformation campaign about the fragility of the site intensified and trespassing forbidden. The use of lethal force is not authorised.
Description: SCP-XXXX is an irremovable standing stone (also referred to as a "menhir" in the local dialect) part of the Kerlescan alignments located 5km away from the village of Carnac, France. The standing stone is 2.56m tall and 1.30m wide, and composed of granit (collected samples show no anomalous properties). Its total mass is estimated to be around 6.4 metric tons. Despite its irremovability, SCP-XXXX is completely similar to the other Kerlescan menhirs by its size, location, appearance and composition. It is believed to have been erected at the same era as the other non-anomalous menhirs (approx. 4th millennium BC), and to come from the same stone quarry.
SCP-XXXX has been brought to the attention of the Foundation following an accident during the restoration of the site in 1951 by the french National Monuments Centre, when a backhoe accidentally hit it and its anomalous property was discovered. Amnestics were distributed to the staff who witnessed the event, and a front company of the Foundation is now in charge of the restoration, establishing the curent containment procedures.
Addendum 1: Test campaign
During the first decade following the discovery, experimentation on SCP-XXXX was not conclusive. But the creation of the Parallel Cosmology Department in 1963 led to the establishment of a test campaign on SCP-XXXX, one of the most ambitious in the history of the Foundation.

Dear Madam,
With the recent advancements in the domain of multi-universes, and the discovery of SCP-████, a new field of research has been established around SCP-XXXX. According to Dr. Manau’s theories joined with the present letter, SCP-XXXX could be a fixated point across parallel worlds, and act as an anchor. This way, the total mass of the object is directly proportional to the number of parallel worlds it is bound to, leading to its appearent irremovability. Measuring this mass would allow us to determine the number of these worlds, and further our research in this precise field. Previous testing was not conclusive, it would be beneficial to lead a campaign with the help of the other alternative SCP Foundations we are in contact with.
Preliminary research is currently in progress with the Parallel Cosmology Department, however we do need your approval to continue.
Looking forward to an answer from you.
Please accept, Madam, the expression of my highest consideration.
At ████, 15/08/1965
To : Dr Jean-Michel.
Authorization granted.
Director ████ will be in charge of these exchanges and the test campaign, and will have full authority.
Secure, Contain, Protect.
Under the supervision of Director ████, Protocol BRIDGE was initiated, via the use of SCP-████ and SCP-███. This way, parallel worlds AW-035 to AW-974 were contacted. All of them do feature an SCP Foundation, as well as an instance of SCP-XXXX. A non-exhaustive list of these worlds is present thereafter (for a complete list, see Appendix-XXXX-WorldsInContact):
| Parallel World Name |
Particularity |
| AW-035 ("BZH Forever") |
Main language is breton, and the Foundation main site is located in Nantes, France. |
| AW-233 ("Fluffy Land") |
A SAW scenario replaced mankind by a breed of antropomorphic long-hair poodles. No conflicts between this species and mankind of our world exists. |
| AW-245 ("Coldest War") |
USSR and America are still in a cold war which did not end with the fall of Berlin Wall. |
| AW-374 ("Only One") |
A unique government controls the whole planet, including the SCP Foundation. |
| AW-593 ("Best Music") |
Music did not change in this reality since XVIIth century. |
| AW-658 ("Gender Swap") |
A world completely similar to our world, except every female individual in our world is male in that reality, and vice-versa. |
Test protocol: An important force is applied at the same time (12:00:00, ██/██/1987) on the same point on each instance of SCP-XXXX indentified in a parallel universe.
Results: The combined applied forces reached a total of █,███*10██ Newtons on a surface of ██ cm2. The results of each particular test, including applied force by the staff in charge, the error margin, the reports and protocols are available in Appendix-XXXX-TestResults included in the present report. The standing stone oscillated with an amplitude of 5cm.
Analysis: Following calculations executed by Dr. Jean-Michel's team, the total mass of SCP-XXXX is estimated to reach █,███*10██ metric tons. It is believed to be bound to █,███*10██ different worlds.
Addendum XXXX-2: Incident XXXX
On ██/██/1987, SCP-XXXX collapsed without any exterior intervention in our reality. According to preemptive estimations by Dr. Jean-Michel, only an energy of █,███*10██ Joules could have caused this tilt. At the present time, no normal nor anomalous object known by Foundation researchers and potentially present in a parallel universe could deploy such an energy (approximately the equivalent of ██ atomic bombs simultaneously detonating in the close vincinity of SCP-XXXX).
It is theorised that a minimum of two XAW-Class Scenarios happenend at the same moment. The worlds that participated in test campaign XXXX are being counted.
Update ██/██/1987: No contacted parallel worlds underwent a XAW-Class Scenario. Research is ongoing to determine precisely where these events happened.
