Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: Containment procedures are ongoing as more information is received. Standard estimates of the range of SCP-XXXX apparitions is believed to be limited to occurrences in historical regions of Southern France; this includes the Western Mediterranean coast of France, stretching from the Rhone valley in the East, to the Spanish border in the South West. For this reason it is enforced that all Field Agents, assigned to SCP-XXXX, must have TY Level 5-6 or CEFR Level C1 – C2 in French language proficiency. Upon apparition of SCP-XXXX, Field Agents, with the corporation of French local authority, are to immediately close off the surrounding perimeter, with complete discretion. Immediate priorities are to identify and locate SCP-XXXX. Upon location, Field Agents are to begin interviewing witnesses who have come into contact with SCP-XXXX, taking special care to interview extensively all child subjects that have been targeted by SCP-XXXX. Information on the guardian of any child subjects must be taken for later background checks. Interview priorities are individuals contacted by SCP-XXXX.

Field Agents are to negate any further contact with SCP-XXXX and witnesses. Personnel is to avoid direct visual contact whenever possible. Only minimal verbal communication around SCP-XXXX is permitted. Field Agents will only be required to speak directly to SCP-XXXX under the direction of testing protocol being administered by a licensed Foundation Doctor.

Once interviews have been completed and SCP-XXXX has ceased remaining in the perimeter, Class-A Amnestics are to be administered at the discretion of the Field Agent’s Squad Leader. Afterwards Bio-technicians shall begin the process of removing and disposing of medical waste. Using clearly marked containers, Bio-technicians are to properly dispose of any medical waste that potentially carry blood borne pathogens. Work is complete when they have properly disposed of all contaminated material, focusing on safely cleaning and restoring commercial and residential areas impacted by SCP-XXXX. Afterwards domain holders of the perimeter is the French local authority and is to be opened at their discretion.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a Caucasian, female individual, with brown eyes, aged between 15–19 years of age. It has short, black hair with a skin complexion that is dark and appears sun burnt. It has malocclusion of the teeth on upper and lower jaws caused by overcrowding. It has a slim build, weighing an approximate 55 kilograms, at a height of approximately 170 centimeters. All apparitions appear in dated or badly mismanaged dress in a period style. Often appearing “ragged” or “disorderly”. Giving the appearance of a young, poverty-stricken woman who appears to be a female servant. This dress is often discolored with a reddish pigment in random blotches, usually below the knees.

There are multiple objects that will always appear in the hands of or within reach of SCP-XXXX. This includes a brown cloth, a large brush with stiff bristles and two oaken buckets. One bucket is usually seen to be filled with a medium amount of red fluid while the other has clear water. This red fluid seems to act as a mild detergent, possibly pH neutral. Sand or salt is also used as an abrasive cleaner.

It was at first believed SCP-XXXX was attracted solely to doing "household chores," occasionally ones specifically assigned to targeted children of SCP-XXXX. It has been observed invading homes and washing floors, clothes, dishes, household objects and the bodies and wounds of individuals it has interacted with. But research and interviews conducted have shown a strong correlation of appearances with neglected or abused child subjects. SCP-XXXX is known to appear in areas with high concentrations of volatile abuse or neglect, sometimes on the part of an anomalous nature, usually focused on the brunt of juveniles. Any discovered information regarding non-anomalous abuse or neglect among the populous may be forwarded to local authority at the discretion of the Squad Leader.

To complete "tasks", SCP-XXXX utilizes the red liquid that it is in constant contact with. Upon examination of this liquid, Albumin was discovered. Albumin is the main protein in plasma, and it functions to regulate the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood. On site samples also discovered biological cells thriving in this liquid. Different types of biological cells have been discovered including primarily red blood cells, white blood cells and noticeably few platelets.

SCP-XXXX does not seem to be aware of these samples being taken but on encroachment for closer examination, SCP-XXXX always reproaches from any advancement. Upon being grabbed SCP-XXXX vanishes itself. By what means are anomalous. If left undisturbed SCP-XXXX will vanish upon completion of it's desired task, the success though of this task is sometimes dubious.

Contact with SCP-XXX has been attainable but limited. Appearances have been noted to only last for an hour at most. Engagement in communication with SCP-XXXX has not been directly observed. But interviews suggest, that when alone, it will often engage in conversation with children, sometimes enacting first contact itself. "Adults" (Adults in this context being based on SCP-XXXX's impression) when speaking to SCP-XXXX receive no other response but a repeated act where by SCP-XXXX appears mournful and responds in colloquial French, despite any language spoken to it, that it will work faster. It then begins quickening the pace it was working at, sometimes appearing to sweat, with flushed appearance. It is unknown if SCP-XXXX has the ability to render anything an adult human says as being something other than a command to continue to work faster.
