Item #: SCP - 5868

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures:
SCP - 5868 devoted to it's personal 10 by 10 by 10 feet pitch black cubical container in Restricted. Light exposure only limited to insuring containment. Otherwise humid ventilation flow 24/7. Humidity levels weighs on subjects personality. If exposed to

100%

humidity class change qualified to keter. Room must maintain a minimum 50% to avoid agitation. Stable control documented around 65%. Walls padded with sound resident panels to damper the filter bubbling noise SCP - 5868 secretes from pours. This unrelenting foreboding thirst; not to mention only way to identify containment. As electrical representation seems futile, for it doesn't reflect light from it's skin, dawning a liquid coating. With tell-tale glimmers.
Everyday at noon as customary SCP - 5868 will exit it's containment to a lean dimly lighten corridor; on the opposing end standing a Facility Officer always unarmed ready with a glass cup of tap in hand. Repeating the same steps day in and day out: on the second, to the second, on the millisecond. Residue mark the tracks, SCP - 5868 forever transfixed on the water. The officer ordered before hand to outstretch their arm to where the tracks end. (Substance contain in track samples will be documented further) The transaction happens routinely any alterations critical. SCP - 5868 will retrieve the cup first by caressing it's index finger with personnel' indicating success. Gloves mandated; will turn around securing itself. The door leading out of the corridor is to be locked to prevent roaming.
The same glass is to be reused daily. Retrieval will always be outside SCP - 5868 door, set upside down in the corridor. After 11:11 am the glass is reported in the 'waiting' position. Any water will suffice; but a preference has been dully noted to above maximum containment level (MCL) mercury. Never leaving the humid champers.

Description:

SCP - 5868 is humanoid as in bipedal: height 7'. skull of a billy goat with flabby lips, eyes glaciers the color of ice, tongue of a dog, bares no teeth, and porcelain skin with watery gleams. 'Liquid' coating around the epidermis is its only defensive mechanism. Absorption of excess water will began an amorphous stage; cultivating liquid. SCP - 5868 craves a source of water, suspected to be searching for a specific body of water. To whom cast this abomination to roam the earth was initially not applicable.. extended duration without water causes SCP - 5868 to deteriorate in the fetal position; until completion, randomly appearing on the globe.

Research personnel identify this new substance as a toxin. All dosages above 1 tablespoon are classified as lethal. In physical contact, symptoms derive from severe dehydration; siphoning all stored water from organisms, diluting the potency whilst obtain mass. Such proportion capable to pussyfoot the 60% of the human adult body; That is water!
After the specimen turned to a dried-husk (still reporting minor brainwave activity) any contact of husk individuals immediately crumble down; If skin to skin connection occurs the toxin will fully spread obtaining more H2O for SCP - 5868 (presence not required). In the events of a homicide, SCP - 5868 will be on the hunt for what is to be believed its independent task is to find the fountain of youth.

Addendum:

Evidence out-sourced by a local shaman. That had access to SCP - 5868 coat sample, which after ceremonial rituals revealed to 'said' shaman. SCP - 5868 is an 'unclean spirit' created in the early 2010's. Spawned from the connection of the embodiment of Death's presence in a dream. A drip of change; precipitation accumulated at the bottom of the cup, into the seams of coherent thought. The shaman announced that the moment of creation was a transaction in a residential home in a dream-like plane of existence. This becoming the skeleton of the containment procedures.

Additional Notes:
Extreme light sensitivity from the magnification of quantum's in H20. Blunt and piercing weapons are as useful to hitting a lake; concentrated light is the substitute for containment procedures. Not effective enough to harm but to direct.

Closing Statement:
SCP - 5175 (DEATHKNIFE) laceration stemmed a containment-breach. Such laceration effectively injured SCP - 5868; wailing, crying with laughter. Began a flood in Restricted. Gallons festering to the floor tile from the piercing; SCP - 5868 tongue rolls down Its hinged jaw. Takes one unrelenting inhale, deoxygenated the room; providing sufficient space for Its mass currently being expunged. 'Ah, to bleed!'. PoI-3445 rendered unconscious; lungs stripped of oxygen. Ω-5 "Damien's Angels" breach, SCP - 5175-1 dragging PoI-3445 away from the rising mercury water. SCP - 5868 retrieves SCP - 5175. Beamed to no avial, while they watch SCP - 5868 eyes roll back and tilts back. Everyone on site reported hearing "Till all are one" telepathically. In the event SCP - 5175 was plunged down SCP - 5868 gullet. DEATHKNIFE permanently contained..
