SCP-4050 leaving it's active state, and returning to dormancy.

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-4050 is currently contained at Site-19, and is scheduled to be transported to Lunar Site-32 on 11/19/20██. Moved to Lunar Site-32. SCP-4050 is to be contained in a 12 ft x 12 ft x 10 ft chamber, with the interior kept at a constant temperature of 1,200° F (5% margin of error). Additionally, until transfer, MTF Lambda-12 ("Kinkshamers") are placed on permanent watch within 2 km of SCP-3836's containment. In case of Scenario 4050-1 "Wildfire", MTF Epsilon-9 ("Fire Eaters") are to suppress affected objects while MTF Lambda-12 subdues SCP-4050. In case of Scenario 4050-2, the internal temperature is to be raised in increments of 200° F every 5 seconds, until SCP-4050 reenters it's dormant state.

Description - Active State: SCP-4050 is an animate statue composed of highly dense lunar regolith¹, taking the appearance of a humanoid female lacking facial features with wings similar in appearance to a dove (avian), however incapable of flight. Occasionally, it's active state will manifest a dull 1.7 ft bladed weapon (designated SCP-4050-1) made of the same material as SCP-4050, which it has thus far not used. It is capable of slow locomotion for extended periods of time, and grabbing small objects.

SCP-4050 in its active state poses a significant cognitohazard to all personnel within its range, which appears to be around 15ft in a 90 degree cone from the front of SCP-4050, once again similar to a human. It will attempt to lure victims near itself with auditory emissions in the form of English speech², until the victim is within arm's reach. Once this is achieved, SCP-4050 will proceed to grab the victim with both arms. At that time, SCP-4050's internal temperature will rise rapidly, reaching a peak of 3,450° F (1898.889° C) in an estimated ~2.4 seconds, melting/vaporizing any vulnerable material on contact. After a period of ~7 minutes, the temperature of SCP-4050 will fall back down to 98.6° F, and it will enter it's passive, dormant state.

Description - Dormant State: SCP-4050 is an amorphous substance composed of superheated lunar regolith, appearing to be a shining, glossy blob. It is not capable of motion, and lacks sentience. During containment, SCP-4050 is to be kept in this state until otherwise specified. Internal temperature is 98.6° F. The substance displays no anomalous properties other than this.

Recovery: SCP-4050 was first discovered ██ miles west of Site-██ in it's dormant state, found by Int. Agent Jones, who "took notice of it's glossy appearance and humanoid shape". Upon reaching the containment zone, SCP-4050 immediately entered it's active state. After successful containment, MTF Epsilon-9 raised SCP-4050's containment room temperature to melting point, returning it to passive state.

2. SCP-4050 is capable of speech despite not possessing the proper organs. Current theory states that SCP-4050 is capable of vibration at frequencies equivalent to speech. SCP-4050 is only capable of English speech, and cannot speak any other language or to non-human creatures.
