Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Appolyon

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is not to be constructed and/or spoken by any Foundation personnel, except for Class D personnel involved in testing. Discussing the roots of SCP-XXXX is also forbidden. There are currently no known methods of preventing the usage of SCP-XXXX by any who fall victim to its effects. Tests can only be ran with the approval of a member of the Overseer Council. Currently, SCP-XXXX can only be recorded through the single sheet of paper it is written on, stored in a folder within a locked drawer in Dr. ███████'s desk. Opening this file is forbidden unless necessary for testing purposes. Recording SCP-XXXX using audio recording devices will no longer be attempted..

Description: SCP-XXXX is a word of Latin origin which combines the verb, ████████ (to █████) with the noun ████ (██████). The usage of the word has no known history beyond the meaning, and it is unlikely the usage will spread when any instance of it appears. The word is capable of transferring knowledge of itself into the minds of individuals whom have had family that previously fell under its effect. SCP-XXXX appears as a thought in the mind of these individuals, who then have an urge to speak or shout the word. A subject saying the word means all nearby individuals who hear it now know it, causing them to also say or shout the word. For 46 seconds after initially hearing SCP-XXXX, there is no noticeable occurrence, and everything seems as it was before the word was spoken. Upon 46 seconds being passed, all subjects affected by SCP-XXXX slowly begin disappearing and "fading" out of existence for 3 to 13 seconds. It is currently not possible to make physical contact with the subject during this moment. Some clothing items go with a disappearing individual, but small accessory items do not.

When audio recordings are made of SCP-XXXX, the device used will function normally for 46 seconds until suddenly it can no longer be used. Recording a subject saying it only works for visuals - an audio recording always ends in corruption or the inability to use related devices. This makes keeping knowledge of the anomaly very difficult. When the successful recordings have been shown to deaf individuals who can read lips, they cannot tell what word is being said as "there is nothing that looks remotely similar" to the mouth of the subject speaking.

The Foundation has been breached on 2 occasions by SCP-XXXX. Knowledge of the first incident is limited, as all recordings were lost due to the effect on electronic equipment. A total loss of 41 personnel were lost, including 3 researchers, 15 security personnel, and 23 D-Class personnel.

Following the first incident, it was immediately clear that the cause was anomalous in nature.

On the second incident, SCP-XXXX was spoken by D-87799382, causing a total loss of 212 Foundation personnel, including 142 D-Class personnel, 44 security personnel, and 26 researchers. This lasted around 4 minutes starting with D-87799382 shouting the word to nearby security and D-Class personnel, and ending with researchers hearing it from nearby security personnel. The final minute was a panic as all subjects who heard the word began understanding they would disappear shortly. The word was written across the top of a sheet of paper by a researcher, and placed in a folder before another wrote "DO NOT READ" across it. Footage of the incident was corrupted, but removing the audio from the automatic backups helped to save it. It took an additional loss of 2 personnel specialized in language to write out the origin and meaning of the word after the event. 12 D-Class personnel were then lost in the failed recording of the word, which destroyed several types of audio equipment. No individuals involved were notified of the effects of the word, other than official personnel being told not to read or say what is on the paper. (See Testing Logs).

After an extremely thorough search of all lost individuals in the first incident, it was discovered afterwards that the event could only have been caused by facility guard █████ ████████, whose first cousin went missing along with 5 friends during a camping trip. All close relatives of those missing are currently being monitored, but nothing can yet be done to prevent disappearance or usage of SCP-XXXX. Three (3) relatives have already disappeared, seemingly through usage of the word. Two (2) were related to one individual, making disappearances seemingly random. Approval for termination of these relatives (as to not spread the word further) is pending.

A look into D-87799382's family history showed his mother went missing around 8 years ago, with absolutely no trace of her left behind. She was last seen at a work-related event, which nobody attending ever returned from, except for a single deaf individual. No close relatives exist of D-87799382, but distant relatives are being monitored with no notable events taking place.
