SCP-5297

OBJECT CLASS: THAUMIEL

CONTAINMENT PROCEDURES: Due to the nature of SCP-5297, SCP-5297 is uncontainable. However, entities of SCP-5297 are to be monitored whenever possible, especially in regions of particularly rainy or cloudy weather. Under no circumstances are any hostile acts to be made to SCP-5297, such as usage of any weapons or even a camera, to minimize risk of a repeated occurrence of Incident [REDACTED].

OBJECT DESCRIPTION: SCP-5297 appears as a large shark fin in the sky, protruding out of any cloudy weather. It is unknown what SCP-5297 looks like above the clouds, for all attempts to discover its appearance have been unsuccessful. SCP-5297’s fin apparatus has been measured to be approximately 20m in length, and 1m thick. Samples of the fin itself have been taken, and it is revealed to be made out of [Data Expunged], proving that the entity is organic. Other fins will occasionally manifest, ranging from 2-8 meters long and 0.3-0.7 meters wide.

SCP-5297 manifestations have been reported at numerous times in numerous places, but all of these reports share these traits:

•storm weather, such as clouds or rain

•low-moderate visibility

•no lightning strikes

•wind speeds of 30mph+

When these conditions are met, SCP-5297 will appear from the sky. It takes no action other than small movements, and disappears approximately 3 minutes before the storm itself dissipates.

After research started on SCP-5297, it was found that any object sent upwards to SCP-5297 will be anomalously consumed and vanish. Cameras that attempt to take photos, audio devices attempting to record a sample of what it sounds like, or even D-Class subjects sent to witness SCP-5297 firsthand all disappear with no sign of where they go. Foundation personnel have decided, due to the docile nature of SCP-5297 and its anomalous ability, that SCP-5297 will be used to dispose of large scale waste, such as high quantities of debris or objects/people that are afflicted with an otherwise incurable affliction that could bring about any -K Class Scenario.
