Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: PLACEHOLDER

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to have 5 hosts at any time, currently SCP-XXXX-1, SCP-XXXX-2, SCP-XXXX-3, SCP-XXXX-4, SCP-XXXX-5, SCP-XXXX-6. In the case of a host dying, new human host is immediately introduced to an instance of SCP-XXXX.

All instances of SCP-XXXX are to be recovered and incinerated, with the exception of the hosts' instances and an additional parasite in the case of the death of a host.

Hosts of SCP-XXXX are placed in containment chambers resembling a small apartment. The room must be built in reinforced concrete masonry units.

If a host of SCP-XXXX shows any form of hostility to personnel, the host is to be immediately moved to it's containment chamber.

If anyone except the 5 hosts is to be infected with SCP-XXXX, they placed into containment and the instance of SCP-XXXX is to be surgically removed.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a species of parasites referred to as [Placeholder, Latin name here] or [Placeholder, Nickname here]. The parasites are incredibly intelligent, often mimicking interesting or everyday objects in order to attract a new host.

Hosts of SCP-XXXX are always human, but it is possible that there are nonhuman hosts. To date, no nonhuman hosts have been discovered.

When an instance of SCP-XXXX comes into contact with a live human, it rapidly moves across the body of the new host and burrows into the back of the neck, right above the spine, where it will begin to manipulate the chemical communication in the brain. This process causes incredibly pain in the host, but is quickly ended when the parasite causes a release of endorphins to ease the pain.

After The instance is inside the body of its host, it then uses an unknown method to use some of its nerve cells as a bridge to the host, adding them as brain cells and allowing communication through cognitive ability, in which the host can also communicate with the parasite.

The instances communicates often about their ideas and philosophies, often regarding the host as a brother or sister.
