Item #: SCP-5077

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-5077 is to be kept within a standard storage locker in Safe-Wing-K of Sector-77. If requisitioned, SCP-5077 must be entirely enveloped in ferrous material when not in use; steel foil will do for this purpose.

Description: SCP-5077 is an irregular hollow metal spike of maximum width 2.7 cm and length 3.7m 3.4m 2.9m. It is heavily flecked and pitted by rust, most concentrated near the point. Notably, SCP-5077 does not possess anomalous durability, so care must be taken during tests not to damage it.

For SCP-5077 to activate, it must be in close proximity (~1m) to someone a sapient being, and ferrous material must not interposed so as to block direct line of sight from every point on one to the other. SCP-5077's anomalous properties will activate if this sapient being then visualises with clarity, in the following order:

1. SCP-5077.
2. A second sapient target.
3. An idea.

SCP-5077's effects will consist of the expungement of this idea from the conception of the target, by an antimemetic and anomalous effect. However, this effect's expression differs greatly from that of the majority of other commonly observed antimemes, including both mundane and anomalous amnestics, with regards to permanence. Once a concept is cauterised in such a manner from a sapient being by SCP-5077, they are henceforth unable even to conceive of it. The knock-on effects of the loss of SCP-5077 central concepts

W-, X-, Y- and Experimental Mem-Class mnestics have been shown to be ineffectual at restoring memories

At present, there is no known method of restoring it.

SCP-5077's anomalous

SCP-1147 Control
Substance: Standard potting soil.
Result: Normal plum tree closely matching similar species. Seeds retain anomalous properties.
Fruit: Sweeter than expected.
Notes: To eliminate as many variables as possible, only seeds from SCP-1147 control should be used for new tests. -Dr. Laurel

SCP-1147-ST
Substance: 20cm cube of galvanized steel. 5cm hole drilled into top, seed placed within, plugged with steel shavings.
Result: Trunk is high quality steel with a superior tensile strength. Leaves and flowers are thin, rigid zinc sheets and give off no scent.
Fruit: Inedible. D-182 cracked tooth in attempt. Subsequent taste tests denied for specimens that can't be cut with a knife.
Notes: This is the same material in which SCP-1147 was discovered. Original specimen successfully reproduced. -Dr. Laurel
