Scp-4953 "THE TEST"
Special containment procedures: Scp-4953 is to be contained within a Standard Secure Humanoid Containment Cell. Transport of SCP-4953 is forbidden except if there is a containment breach, in which it is to be moved to the next closest foundation site, this is due to the fact that SCP-4953 is highly intelligent and will learn methods of escape immediately upon exit of its containment cell.
When being Transported scp-4953 must be sedated 24 hours prior to transport and cannot learn that it is being transported. Sedatives must be strong enough to keep Scp-4953 in a vegetative state long enough for it to arrive at the new site and be securely and thoroughly contained in the aforementioned cell. During transport, SCP-4953 must be secured within a Class III Humanoid Restriction Harness.
The Site at which SCP-4953 of is contained at must be in the containment sector of a site located in different hemisphere of which SCP-049 is currently located, this is due to SCP-4953 motives. SCP-4953 is currently being held at Site-45 in the containment Sector, this is due to Site-45's distance from site-19, the current location of SCP-049, it also due to Site-45's high count of MTF personnel because of Site-45's nature.
SCP-4953 is highly aggressive and no site personnel are to come in contact with it at any times. Research must be approved directly by the O5 council. SCP-4953 has only shown a change in its temper when allowed contact with SCP-049 for research purposes, however physical contact has never occurred between and is strictly forbidden.
In case of containment breach, local units are to be delegated and lead by MTF-EPSILON 11 and supported by MTF-EPSILON 9 as containment breach will most likely lead to heavy conflict.
Description: SCP-4953 bears resemblance to SCP-049 in terms that it wears gaudy black robes/cloak and its actual physical features aren't visible. Some notable differences is that instead of dawning a medieval plaque doctor mask, it wears a completely black medieval bascinet helmet and also Carries a large straight sword of english origin on its hip. These factors lead researchers to conclude that it comes from the same time period as SCP-049.
SCP-4953 can speak english and french, and demonstrates high intellect. Often ot refers to itself as "THE TEST" and is hostile to humans it comes in contact with. SCP-4953's goal has been revealed to be challenging SCP-049 and killing it, stating that is his purpose.
When researchers allowed the two to contact verbally, they wittingly argued. SCP-4953 showed a more calm temperament compared to its usual self but soon became enraged after SCP-049 claimed its superiority, SCP-4953 demanded site personnel to release him in Hope's of fighting SCP-049 shouting "I WILL BRUTALLY SLAUGHTER THAT KNAVE!"
SCP-4953 has shown many anamolous properties. It has the ability to cross great distances and carry out massive actions to accomplish its goal , it has also demonstrated the ability to know the exact location of SCP-049 at any given time. It has also shown the ability to tranfer a strain of the disease which wiped out millions of Europeans during medieval times known as the bubonic plague when it comes in contact with any living being. Any human killed by the disease will to reanimate 1 hour after death and gain a set of medieval black knights armor along with a variety of weapons front the time period. Researches have labeled the reanimated people SCP-4953-2. Those reanimated will often remain docile but will follow SCP-4953 constantly except when in contact with SCP-049-2 in which they will engage in combat. Unlike SCP-049-2, SCP-4953-2 has shown a decent level of sentience and act as foot soldiers under the command of SCP-4953.
Considering SCP-049 and his connection to curing "the pestilence" believed to be the bubonic plague, and SCP-4953 ability to spread the plaque, it is believed that SCP-4953 represents the plaque while SCP-049 represents the cure.
