Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is located on an isolated desk from Dr. Ursu's office from Site-34.. SCP-XXXX is located in a reinforced steel safe at Site-34. The sheet of paper containing SCP-XXXX is to not be put in contact with any other conventional material designed to be written/drawn on. In the scenario of SCP-XXXX not being present in its designated sheet, a thorough search of all nearby paper sheets is to be held. After SCP-XXXX's location has been disclosed, its new sheet is to be isolated.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a drawn humanoid stick figure, with a height of approximately 10 cm and a width of approximately 6 cm. The piece of paper it is currently drawn on will be referred to as SCP-XXXX-A. SCP-XXXX is a fully functional entity which possesses a level of intelligence similar with the one of an 8-year old human superior intelligence levels(see Incident I-XXXX-1) and capable of human-like movement within the boundaries of SCP-XXXX-A. SCP-XXXX also possesses the ability to travel between sheets. If another piece of paper comes into contact with SCP-XXXX-A, SCP-XXXX will be able to traverse between it and the new sheet. It should be noted that the entity has a tendency to locate and attempt to reach nearby paper sheets, with its interest increasing proportionally with the number of sheets present in the respective stack. It is unclear whether this is a desire to breach containment, or simply an affinity for paper.
SCP-XXXX was recovered by the Foundation from the ██████ Kindergarten in █████████, Romania on 03/05/2009. The principal had closed down the facility and called the authorities claiming a demonic entity was present in the main building. Proper amnestics were administered after the object's retrieval.
Despite the fact that SCP-XXXX displays no facial features, it is able to perceive visual stimuli, including distinguishing individuals, colors, shapes and even actions (waving at it will always result in it waving back).
Individuals are able to interact with SCP-XXXX by drawing on SCP-XXXX-A using a pencil (other drawing tools don't seem to have an effect). Drawing various objects onto the sheet will allow SCP-XXXX to come in contact with them. It seems that how the objects are used by SCP-XXXX depends on how the artist intended that object to be used (check Experiment Log XXXX.1 for concrete examples). It also seems objects cannot come to life onto the canvas, regardless of the individual's intention.
Although SCP-XXXX cannot perceive sound, communication with it can be established by handwriting on SCP-XXXX-A. SCP-XXXX was able to comprehend all world-recognized languages used so far, including the Cyrillic alphabet, but not fictional languages. SCP-XXXX is able to respond to "yes or no" questions by nodding/shaking his head, but it requires the individual drawing a series of capital letters for it to rearrange into words or phrases.
Using an eraser to remove previously drawn objects will render SCP-XXXX unable to interact with them. Erasing SCP-XXXX itself does not seem possible, but cutting/damaging a portion of paper containing a part of SCP-XXXX will cause it to display signs of pain. The entity is able to regenerate itself if there are any kind of carbon traces left from pencils on SCP-XXXX, by absorbing them into its own body.
Experiment #: 0001
Artist: Dr. Ursu
Object drawn: A sphere.
Results: SCP-XXXX picks up the sphere and starts throwing it around and playing with it. The sphere seems to have the physical properties of a rubber ball.
Observations: It is currently unknown whether drawn objects can alter our world. Further testing will be done using D-Class personnel to avoid potential harm to researchers.
Experiment #: 0002
Artist: Subject D-9002
Object drawn: A house.
Results: SCP-XXXX somehow manages to open the house's door and get inside it. It then proceeds to climb to the upper floor and wave at the subject from the window.
Observations: It seems SCP-XXXX-A is not limited to our conventional 2 dimensions and can interact with drawn objects in unexpected ways.
Experiment #: 0003
Artist: Subject D-9002
Object drawn: A trampoline.
Results: SCP-XXXX inspects the object for a few seconds, then starts jumping on it. After around a minute, it starts attempting to spin into the air and land in different positions. Although seemingly painful, it does not mind the continuous falls.
Experiment #: 0004
Artist: Subject D-9002
Object drawn: A tree
Results: SCP-XXXX approaches the object, looking at the oval-like shape representing the leaves. It then starts climbing it and pulls an apple from its crown. SCP-XXXX eats the apple and looks satisfied.
Observations: After interrogating D-9002, it has come to my attention that the reason SCP-XXXX was able to pull the new object of the existing one might be that the subject "saw it as an apple tree when drawing it". This may indicate the drawn object's properties depend on how the artist imagines them to be.
Experiment #: 0005
Artist: Subject D-9002
Object drawn: A rubber axe.
Results: SCP-XXXX picks up the object, examines it and starts swinging at the tree, to no effect.
Experiment #: 0006
Artist: Subject D-9002
Object drawn: A sharp, metal axe.
Results: SCP-XXXX picks up the new object and starts touching it surface as if it notices its new material. It then turns its head towards Subject D-9002, staring at him for approximately 2 seconds. The entity then proceeds to cut down the tree with it.
Observations: Theories that the way an object is interacted with depends on the artist's vision have proven correct, but the entity's initial reaction when having come into contact with this kind of object does seem unusual. Perhaps further experimentation will yield an explanation.
Experiment #: 0010
Artist: Subject D-9002
Object drawn: A dog.
Results: SCP-XXXX looks confused at the dog-looking object, which does not seem to move or display signs of life. SCP-XXXX's interest in the object fades after a short amount of time.
[SUPERFLUOUS TEST LOGS REDACTED]
Experiment #: 0070
Artist: Subject D-9002
Object drawn: A pencil.
Results: See Incident I-XXXX-1.
Observations: SCP-XXXX is not to be drawn tools that may allow it to create its own objects.
Addendum XXXX.1: Further testing should be done in the future regarding SCP-XXXX's intelligence. Its capability of advanced communication and learning indicate that it may be able to do much more than play with drawn objects.
SCP-XXXX has been deceiving us all along. It displays intelligence levels far greater than we had thought and its true malicious intentions come to light once it is given an opportunity to forge its own creations.
Experiment #: 70 proved to be a disaster and resulted in SCP-XXXX's containment breach. Almost immediately after SCP-XXXX realized the power of the tool we offered it, it drew itself 3 helicopter-like propellers, which it used to set SCP-XXXX-A afloat. Before Subject D-9002 could react, SCP-XXXX used its new vehicle to swiftly make a deep incision in his neck, killing him shortly after. It then quickly navigated under the door and headed towards the nearest stack of papers, killing all personnel encountered in its path. An alarm was triggered and a strike team was deployed shortly after. The team was able to get hold of SCP-XXXX-A and rip the propellers, rendering SCP-XXXX immobile.
What is even more peculiar is what SCP-XXXX was trying to achieve with its paper stack. When recovered from the containment breach, a series of paper sheets were laying on the floor, arranged in the shape of an incomplete square, each one of them displaying a symbol on it. It is safe to presume SCP-XXXX was attempting to initiate a ritual of some sort. The following interview was held a few days after the incident:
(SCP-XXXX was drawn multiple series of capital letters in order for it to answer)
Interviewed: SCP-XXXXInterviewer: Dr. ██████

Interviewer (writing): Who are you?
SCP-XXXX: PRISONER
Interviewer (writing): What do you wish to do?

SCP-XXXX: FOR THEN YOU AND YOUR KIND
SCP-XXXX: WILL STAND WHERE I AM NOW
[End Log]Further experimentation has been stopped. It should also be noted that SCP-XXXX's behavior has notably shifted from playful and curious to completely indifferent to any kind of stimuli.
Addendum XXXX.2: Given the recent incident regarding SCP-XXXX, I am modifying its object class to Euclid and requesting increased security on the Containment Procedure.
Approval is granted to lock SCP-XXXX in a reinforced steel safe to prevent further containment breaches.
SCP-XXXX
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is locked in a 10-digit pin coded safe, located in Storage Unit-22 within Site-17. Further access for research purposes is to be granted only by Class A personnel. Subjects exposed to SCP-XXXX are required to be at least Class B Foundation members with a minimum score of 60 points on the Milgram Obedience Test.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a leather-cover book recovered on 02/09/20██ during a Foundation raid of a Serpent's Hand facility. Testing has shown the object dates back from the 16th century.
SCP-XXXX contains a 151-page biography of the individual reading it, up to the moment he or she came into contact with it, written in a style and tone similar to classic fairy tales. If more than one person is reading SCP-XXXX, its content will be perceived differently by each reader. It should also be noted that regardless of the reader's age or number of events from their life, the number of pages remains consistent, SCP-XXXX choosing to skip or include details in order to shorten or stretch the story. The language SCP-XXXX is written in seems to be the language the reader is most comfortable with, which can be different from his/her mother tongue.
What all the variations of the text share in common is the ending sentence, that being "Now, it's time for [reader's name] to continue their journey…". Between 2 and 30 minutes after an individual finishes reading SCP-XXXX, SCP-XXXX-A will start manifesting inside the individual's mind. To prevent the reader from triggering SCP-XXXX-A, the text consists at first of only the first phrase, the rest of them displaying themselves one at a time as he or she continues to read through them.
SCP-XXXX-A refers to a voice present in the mind of an individual who has finished reading SCP-XXXX. Subjects under the effect of SCP-XXXX-A describe it at as a calm, soothing male voice, similar in tone with the voice of actor M█████ F██████, which "narrates" their actions, thoughts and decisions as if they were "part of some kid's book". Subjects have stated that, despite SCP-XXXX-A's pleasant sound, its constant presence in their mind often renders them almost unable to focus and it disturbs their sleep to the point where sedatives are required for them to fully rest. Further tests have proven that these negative effects do tend to grow weaker over time. Subjects have also brought to researchers' attention that SCP-XXXX-A is also present in their dreams, displaying its normal behavior of describing surroundings and events.
It should be also noted that, on certain occasions, SCP-XXXX-A seems to purposely induce paranoia to its host. Multiple subjects have reported the voice narrating actions done by them in the past tense when they have not in fact taken place yet. Subject D-20902 has provided the following example:
It's like, say I am standing in a hallway and there's 2 doors in front of me. The voice would go something like "Johnathan continued on his path, reaching a crossroad. Unsure which way to go, he chose the left path". And that's before I even picked a door. It's creeping me out, 'cause now I feel like I should go left, but I don't know what's gonna happen if I go right. It's screwing with my head!
Communication with SCP-XXXX-A has been attempted, but to no success. Writing into SCP-XXXX has initially proven successful, but researchers soon realized the hand-written text is only visible to its author and has no effect on the object's anomalous properties.
An unexpected result is obtained when looking at the object through electronic. Photographs, recordings and such containing SCP-XXXX will display the recording object's history, from manufacturing date to the date the record was captured. After fully reading SCP-XXXX through this indirect way, SCP-XXXX-A will not manifest.
Addendum XXXX.1: Further experimentation has been stopped due to SCP-XXXX not displaying any other anomalous properties which can be studied or exploited.
Description: The object description provided above is entirely valid, with a few exceptions, but left incomplete by the direct order of the O5.
Thanks to Dr. Preda's "research", The Foundation was able to get very good insight into the kind of information SCP-XXXX-A can provide when narrating.
What makes SCP-XXXX-A trully stand out is its omnisciency. As far as experiments have proven the Foundation, SCP-XXXX-A has unlimited knowledge of the past, present and future. Its knowledge ranges from events to classified facts to how other individuals are feeling or thinking at certain points in time. SCP-XXXX-A does not reveal specific information on command, though, but rather "when it is relevant to the plot".
Addendum XXXX.2: The subject of SCP-XXXX's possible contribution to Foundation Research was debated during an Overseer Council meeting. With a final vote of 8 in favor and 5 against, it was agreed to use SCP-XXXX-A's knowledge, experimentally at first, in order to gather various types of information about potential breaches, SCP objects and research-related intel.
Personnel chosen to be exposed to SCP-XXXX were required to be known loyal Foundation members and, at the end of each day, the chosen individuals needed to be interrogated about the kind of information SCP-XXXX-A had provided. These precautions were taken so, in the case of a Site Researcher obtaining classified information from SCP-XXXX-A, the Foundation would've been assured that the individual would follow his or her instructions to be administered required amnestics.
The first few weeks of the trial period proved successful. The individuals continued their work as usual, occasionally nearing containment rooms of "problematic" SCP objects, while collecting intel about various matters. While it is true that the quantity of random facts outweighed the one of useful information, the Foundation managed to retrieve valuable information regarding future containment breaches, unknown SCP properties and even provided the locations of SCP-3998 and SCP-████.
The unfortunate outcome of Incident-XXXX-1 induced stress to the remaining number of participants in the experiment. Since, at that time, the Foundation was not aware of a method to extract SCP-XXXX-A from an individual's mind, little action was taken to remediate the problem, including prohibition to approach SCP objects that might cause similar results.
Another unforeseen effect of the initiative was the degrading relationships of the selected personnel with the rest of the Foundation employees. Since SCP-XXXX-A narrates the stories from a mostly impersonal perspective, it did not hold back from telling the chosen researchers what other individuals think or feel about them. The continuous exposure to this sort of information gradually affected both their mental health and social behavior, resulting in noticeably poorer performance and cooperation skills.
This, in combination with the paranoia and disturbances caused by SCP-XXXX-A in general, and the leftover tension from Incident-XXXX-1 led all subjects first to severe mental health issues, followed by dementia. Removal of SCP-XXXX-A from the subjects' mind has been attempted using Class C amnestics, however without success.
Shortly after the result of the experiment was conclusive, it was declared that the cost of retrieving information from SCP-XXXX-A exceeds its benefit and that further research in this field should be interrupted.
Incident-XXXX-1: The event took place on 14/██/2███ and was recorded on a few cameras, providing Security with full visual of the incident. It is believed that SCP-XXXX-A offered Dr. ██████ information about ●●|●●●●●|●●|●, because when looking at the recorded footage at approximately 3:20 PM the researcher can be observed having an "unfortunate" encounter, followed by his abduction.
The Foundation had taken rigorous precautions to prevent leaks of classified data, but it had overlooked the possibility of SCP-XXXX-A offering intel about information-aspiring entities. It is currently unknown in what context or why did SCP-XXXX-A mention this sort of intelligence to Dr. ██████, but it has shown the Foundation that confidential information is not the only aspect that it ought to be cautious about.
Addendum XXXX.3: Although previously believed that SCP-XXXX-A was a non-sapient entity, communication has been established with it.
To better understand the effects of SCP-XXXX and SCP-XXXX-A on the human mind, the Foundation conducted several experiments on subjects affected by the entity, by studying their cerebral activity patterns. Although at first unsuccessful, researchers managed to identify sub-infra-low brain waves being broadcasted at frequencies ranging from 0.000003-0.000007 Hz while SCP-XXXX-A was narrating.
Shortly after, through the Foundation's extensive resources, letters started being decrypted, eventually followed by words. After the first sentence has been fully translated, all the electrical equipment connected to the subject's brain suddenly shut down. After approximately 4 seconds of inactivity, the machinery was reactivated, seemingly by its own, displaying one last wave sequence, only to stop receiving anomalous transmission from the subject's brain.
Multiple attempts to reaccess SCP-XXXX-A's frequency have been conducted since, both on the original subject and others, to no result. After the experiment, all subjects under SCP-XXXX-A's influence reported that the voice's intensity slightly dampened.
The text decrypted from SCP-XXXX-A's last recorded transmission read:
Now then, we wouldn't want to break the fourth wall, would we?
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Kušum
Special Containment Procedures: There are no known procedures to contain SCP-XXXX. SCP-XXXX may rarely visit Foundation Sites. Although hostility will not affect its behavior, it is generally recommended to not display signs of aggression.
Description: SCP-XXXX is, in appearance, an african-american human male, 190 cm in height, dark-haired, blue-eyed, aged approximately 50 years old. It disguises itself as a freelance engineer working at its own private studio. The first attempts to locate SCP-XXXX have been established on ██/██/1975 when the Foundation initiated an operation following rumors about an unregistered workshop, owned by an individual able to repair any type of toy brought to him, located in [REDACTED]. Further investigation revealed a completely empty building, apart from a few desks, chairs and tables. After documenting the location, microscopic microphones and cameras were planted in case of future events or reports regarding it. Approximately 8 hours later, the respective devices simultaneously stopped broadcasting any kind of signal.
A second operation was conducted, followed by another 10, to reveal the anomaly causing this issue, without any avail, the conclusion always being that the building is non-anomalous. The fifth investigation mission, however, was conducted by part of our Antimemetics Division and revealed one small, dodecahedron-shaped object (scp-184) shielded by an anomalous blanket-like object with visual anti-memetic properties. The object was taken in custody of the Foundation, to Site-17, for research and containment, and the veil covering it was stored in Site-23 and later added to volume III of the series of anomalous items list. Shortly after this event, we received our first encounter with SCP-XXXX. The interaction between it and the Foundation was recorded and can be reviewed in Interview Log XXXX.1.
SCP-XXXX is an extra-universal sapient entity with unknown limits to its power and capabilities who claims to be the creator of our universe and reality. Although there is no clear evidence of its statements' veracity, SCP-XXXX's extensive knowledge, ability to manipulate matter and awareness of CK-Class restructuring events do seem to support at least a fraction of his claims. The entity also states that his presence in our universe is and has been for eons purely maintenance-oriented, SCP-XXXX presenting no interest in interacting with our reality (check Interview Log XXXX.4) more than required in order for the "system" to run smoothly.
Further information about the object's intentions, behavior and information disclosed can be found in its interview transcripts present below.
Interview Date: 7/12/1975
[Begin Log]
At approximately 15:02, SCP-XXXX can be observed on footage phasing through Laboratory-34's southern wall, waving its hands.
SCP-XXXX: FINE, FINE! You have my attention. DARN, you are persistent!
Dr. Geberit(startled): What?! What the fuck?! Who are you?! Alarm, someone ring the alarm!
SCP-XXXX: Oh, stop being so dramatic. Since you wanted to meet me so badly that you snatched one of my toys, I thought I might as well show up in person.
Dr. Geberit(shouting): Containment breach in progress! I repeat, breach in progress!
SCP-XXXX: For crying out loud. Just give me whoever's in charge around here.
[End Log]
Security systems attempt for several minutes to detain SCP-XXXX to no success while the entity moves rapidly from room to room, searching for the site's director.
Immediately following the incident presented in Interview Log XXXX.1, Head Researcher Dr. Ursu, agrees to interview SCP-XXXX, putting an end to the panic caused throughout the site.
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Dr. Ursu
Interview Date: 7/12/1975
[Begin Log]
Dr. Ursu: Hello. My name is Dr. Lawrence Ursu. I understand your visit to this site serves a purpose.
SCP-XXXX: Yeah, hi. Look, even though we have literally all the time in the world, I want to get this over with as quickly as possible. I came to talk. You see, not long ago, one of your teams paid a visit to my workshop, again, and this time they took a little something from me.
Dr. Ursu: I see. You must be the one responsible for the anomalous reports in that area we've been searching. The object we acquired, I understand you came to retrieve it?
SCP-XXXX: Huh. Funny enough, no. Yeah, I must admit you did get on my nerves a little when you figured a way to actually perceive it, but I guess it's my fault that I kept it using such a sloppy containment method. Anyways, I know who you guys are and what you are doing. By this moment, you must've already figured mostly what it does. For now, I think it's in good hands, since I do tend to often lose my toys in unfortunate places. This one in particular has a funny story (scp 3008). Anyways, I'm getting off the point. I'm not really a people person and I like to work alone, so I'm here to tell you the information you need for your documents and formal stuff.
Dr. Ursu (looking through papers in his hands): Alright then…(short pause)… I think a good start would be to let us know who you are and what do you know about your anomalous properties.
SCP-XXXX: You can call me… Chris, but you've probably already given me one of your catalog numbers to name me by. As far as…what I am… well, to put it simply, I'm the creator and babysitter of your universe, reality, realm, or whatever you want to call it.
Dr. Ursu (with disbelief in his eyes after a brief pause): I see… In that case, you claim to be the very entity to have pieced and started the world as we know it… similar to a God?
SCP-XXXX: Well, without going into a lot of detail, yeah. I made it and now I'm trying to keep it running… more or less smoothly.
SCP-XXXX (between his teeth): And you aren't that much help.
Dr. Ursu: I understand.
*Dr. Ursu appears to receive a short message in his earbud*
Dr. Ursu: Although your abilities do seem rather extraordinary, we have reasons to question your authenticity as… God. We have another entity with similar abilities to yours, in containment in one of our facilities who claims to have also created the universe. Perhaps you are familiar with SCP-343?
SCP-XXXX (amused): THAT's what he's been telling you? Man, oh, MAN, are we going to have this conversation for the ynillonth time. Ok, ok, fine, whatever. The point is, yes, he did bring a fair share of contribution to the project, but he absolutely did not make… (SCP-XXXX starts moving his hands in the air pointing at different sides of the room in a circular fashion) THIS.
Dr. Ursu: Do you have any kind of evidence to support your claim?
SCP-XXXX: I imagine you also asked him to show you that he really is "The Almighty". What did it take for you to believe him? He did the burger trick, didn't he?
Dr. Ursu (surprised): Uhm, yes, he did, but it took more than…
SCP-XXXX (interrupting him): He really does never change… So what now, want me to spawn in a sandwich or something to prove I know my way around with matter? I can end all existence if you want to.
Dr. Ursu: …I suppose that will not be necessary. Anyway, this does raise quite a few more questions. Firstly, what did you mean by "project" when you referred to our universe?
SCP-XXXX: Woah there, you wouldn't want me to completely shatter your concept of reality, wouldn't you? Maybe another time. Anyways, I think I've already told you enough, I didn't come here to share my feelings and life story, so I should get going. Just passed by to present myself in hopes I won't have to see you guys again.
Dr. Ursu: I apologize, but I can't quite allow you to leave. There is still so much left to discuss.
SCP-XXXX (sarcastically): Oh really? What are you gonna do? *Contain* me like you think you managed to do with J… (brief pause)… "343"? Still don't fully get it why he likes you guys so much. Not my problem, I guess.
Dr. Ursu: You must understand that the Foundation will continue to attempt to contain you, by any means, as long as its resources allow it to.
SCP-XXXX (with a sigh): Yes, yes, I don't doubt it. I'm sure you'll keep pestering me until someone inevitably gets hurt.
*Approximately 2 seconds after SCP-XXXX's sentence, every single camera present in every Foundation Site across our dimension displayed the live feed of the one present in the interrogation room, with direct focus on the entity's face, causing ██ containment breaches due to the lack of functioning monitoring equipment supervising various SCP objects.*
SCP-XXXX (calmly): Look. I don't want to be that kind of guy. I know you'll keep searching and trying to detain me and my workshop until you succeed and maybe, someday, you'll get on my nerves so badly that I will do something I won't be very proud of. So here's what I have to say to you. I'll keep passing by from time to time to try to answer whatever more questions or existential crisis' you have. I won't promise I'll always give you a straight-on reply, but I'll leave you with some things to think about. In return, all I ask for you to leave me alone. I think it's a pretty good deal. Anyway, I think this little live show has already caused some havoc, so I'll leave you to it.
*The transmission ends and all cameras return to normal functionality. SCP-XXXX then disappears from the room.*
[End Log]
Addendum XXXX.1: Following the event occurred during Interview XXXX.2, it has been decided by the direct order of the O5 Council that SCP-XXXX is not to be contacted until a suitable form of containment is found.
Note: It should be also noted that during the 2 days it took the Foundation to contain the escaped SCP-objects, we suffered a total number of 0 casualties, with the exception of a few minorly injured members.
Addendum XXXX.2: Approximately 209 days after SCP-XXXX's initial contact with the Foundation, the entity started paying visits to Foundation sites with SCP-XXXX willingly coming for interviews with Foundation personnel. The time period between consecutive visits currently ranges from 2 days to 9 years. The following transcripts are taken from every contact the Foundation has had with SCP-XXXX.
SCP-XXXX suddenly materializes into Site-15 at approximately 3:02 am. The entity disables the site's alarms and walks to the nearest office demanding for someone to interview it. After a short period of panic within the site, personnel is informed that SCP-XXXX's presence does not represent a breach and preparations for the interview are completed shortly after.
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Dr. Popel
Interview Date: 3/07/1976
[Begin Log]
Dr. Popel: Hello, SCP-XXXX. Sorry for the delay, but we were not expecting you at such a late hour.
SCP-XXXX: Oh, nice, I have my own number already! I must say I am more of a prime guy, but this works, too. Yeah, sorry about the time. I noticed you guys have held your end of the bargain so I thought you have been well-behaved enough for a visit.Dr. Popel: Good, welcome back. I understand you are here to answer more of our questions?
SCP-XXXX: Don't take it personally, doc, but I don't like you to the point where I come by just to check how your day was, so let's hear those inquiries of yours.
Dr. Popel: Yes, of course… Let's start going over some of your previous statements. You claim to have conceived the universe, correct?
SCP-XXXX: Your universe, yes.
Dr. Popel: How exactly did you manage to undergo this task?
SCP-XXXX: Well, as much as I'd like to brag about it, I won't act like I succeeded from the first try. I'd gone through lots and lots of iterations before I even attempted the first prototypes and every time I would solve an issue, 3 more popped up. A lot of features were scrapped during this development and to this day I still dream of an infinite noise-based procedurally generated universe… maybe next time. Anyway, what really bothered me is that a realm worth creating has one base substance that makes it really live: chaos. I twisted my mind in search for a way to create a system of this size that runs on a random, yet completely ordered and natural core mechanic. You see, I came to the conclusion that even I can't create that, but what I can create, though, is a system that DOESN'T! (scp 4634)
Dr. Popel: I'm not quite sure I follow…
SCP-XXXX: We can worry about that later. You might sometimes wanna be careful about the things you ask. Some answers might cause unexpected results.
Dr. Popel: Uhm… Alright… In that case, let's move on to the next point. Could you expand more on the subject of you "babysitting" the universe?
SCP-XXXX: Well, there's not that much to say about that. I spent a great deal of time and space making this place and you can be sure I'm not just going to let it fall apart. And I must say it really brings me joy every time another single-cellular organism does an overly set of actions that cracks a dent in the space-time continuum because you had told yourself that this issue isn't worth your time, since what are the odds of that exact unfortunates series of events to happen?
Dr. Popel: What do you mean when you refer to the universe falling apart? Are there constant threats affecting the fabric of reality?
SCP-XXXX: Oh, you bet. Look, as great as this world may seem, it still has quite a number of band-aid fixes I had to put together in order for it to work. Not very professional of me, I admit, but what can you do? Things can get *REALLY* dirty if you don't pay attention to the subtle inconsistencies in the universal grid because these tiny snowballs roll down the snowy mountain and by the time you see them, you're already in deep, deep trouble. Only God knows how many times I had to completely reboot this dimension, and I am God and I can tell you the number is 2.
Dr. Popel: The Foundation has also been dealing with CK-Class Restructuring events and is aware of very few such scenarios and currently no "universe resetting" one.
SCP-XXXX: Wanna know why? That's because I've been doing a damn good job, that's why, and not to mention how many times I've had to clean up after YOU. You and your experiments, constantly playing with things you couldn't begin to comprehend. I leave you for a few weeks without supervision and you guys have already altered either the timeline, an entire concept or the laws that literally support your existence. Seriously, I hope you do realize that the times when you actually fixed something, it was your own mess and you probably did it before me, simply because I hadn't noticed. Boy, talk about ungrateful!
Dr. Popel: I…understand. Besides your role as a guardian of reality, in what other ways to you interact with it?
SCP-XXXX: Ooh, "guardian of reality" does sound a little more dramatic. Well, I try my best to leave you guys do your own thing. I spend most of my time working in my old shop, that is, of course, when I'm filling dimensional gaps you made along the way. I don't really see a point in messing with the natural flow of events.
Dr. Popel: I see. That brings us to the next qu-
SCP-XXXX (looking at a watch he instantly materialized on his right wrist): Oh, would you look at the time. It's finite and relative, so I kinda have to go now.
Dr. Popel: I would really appreciate if you could spare a little more time to clarify some-
SCP-XXXX: Until next time!

Prior to the interview, SCP-XXXX phased through the main entrance of Site-11 at approximately 16:52, this time without being scanned by the security system. A short disturbance is caused between the site's personnel, but shortly after, a room is secured for use.
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Dr. Niculae
Interview Date: 02/09/1977[Begin Log]
Dr. Niculae: Hello, SCP-XXXX. It has been a while since your last visit, but it is good to have you back.
SCP-XXXX: What can I say? I'm a busy man, but as long as I have my quiet, you can have your answers.
Dr. Niculae: Indeed, thank you for cooperating. We have a lot more to discuss so let us begin. Today, I'd like to learn more about your motives. Let's start with your presence on our planet. If you are indeed the Creator, why are you spending your time here on Earth?
SCP-XXXX: Well, first off, who says I can only be in one place at once?
*At this point, another instance of SCP-XXXX materializes itself behind Dr. Niculae and pats him on the back, startling him. The instance grins and then disappears.*
SCP-XXXX (still giggling): Heh, but your question isn't entirely useless. I exist in as many points in space as I want to, yes, but it is also true I keep my shop here, specifically on this planet. You see, you guys have a saying: "Stop acting like you're in the center of the universe". Well, technically, you are. This "Earth" is actually situated in the origin of your universe and not by accident. I made this way because I knew I needed a space around here to monitor the dimension more closely, so I thought to myself: "Well, if I'm going to be here all the time, I might as well decorate a little".
Dr. Niculae: I understand, but why would you be able to supervise the universe better from this point?
SCP-XXXX: Look, I'm not going to go over all the technicalities of why the origin of a 22-dimensional space is an injection point, but just know that this is the place around which things are easiest to break or be inserted into. Why do you think most of the weird stuff you've found so far exist right on this planet?
Dr. Niculae: Hold on, so are you saying that the anomalous phenomena our Foundation has spent centuries containing and studying are the cause of a… instability in the universe that is present around Earth? Is that were all SCP-objects originate from? Are you even in control of their existence and behavior?
SCP-XXXX: Wow, wow, settle down, buddy. Why not talk about this another day? Want a drink?
Dr. Niculae: I, uhm… no, thank you.
*SCP-XXXX materializes itself a cup filled with appears to be a lavender liquid and sips from it.*
SCP-XXXX: Well, if you don't have any more non-reality-shaking questions, I will make my way towards the exits.
Dr. Niculae: If you don't mind, I do have a few more of those.
SCP-XXXX (turning his chair into a vintage leather armchair and leaning back): Hm, fine, go on.
Dr. Niculae: From what I understand, your so-called "workspace" is hidden under the appearance of a toy workshop. Could you tell me why is that?
SCP-XXXX: Well, I've always considered myself a tinkerer, you see. I spend most of my existence designing and projecting my own inventions. Your universe was a large-scale task that took me quite a while to perform, but now I've settled for more minimalistic ideologies. You've already found and wrapped your head around a few of them. I like calling them "toys", because that's what I feel when I'm crafting them. It feels like I'm playing. I'm experimenting with what more can be done with the laws that confine this reality. And it's pretty fun. Anyways, that's where the whole workshop thing came from.Dr. Niculae: We are aware of another entity responsible for creating anomalous items and calling them "toys". Are you familiar with an individual gone by the name of "Dr. Wondertainment"?
*SCP-XXXX appears to undergo heavy thought*
SCP-XXXX: Huh… never heard of him…
Dr. Niculae: Alright… The reason the Foundation discovered your premises in the first place was because of rumors circulating around the city about a man who was able to repair any toy, no matter its type or damage suffered.
SCP-XXXX (with a sigh): Some decades ago, a bunch of kids were messing in front of the shop. I eavesdropped and saw a bunch of boys kicking dirt into another one, who was sitting crouched on the ground. Now, look, I hadn't ever gotten involved in any of your battles or wars, so I wasn't gonna suddenly be the hero and save the day. After they left, I noticed the kid on the ground with a few fresh bruises picking up a broken plastic figurine. Its head and arm had been ripped off and he was helplessly trying to piece them together. For some reason, I… I think I kind of felt bad for him, not really sure why. Maybe it reminded me of… I came outside and asked him if I could see it for a minute and I came back with it in one piece, good as new. I then looked at his dirty face. He wasn't of the finer specimens, I could tell, but… even with that stupid mug of his, he put up one of the biggest smiles I had seen. And remember, I made this place a long time ago and I saw plenty of smiles. After that, I returned to my work as if nothing'd happened. That's where the problems began. The little brat started telling others about the man who fixed his toy and before I knew it, a few other kids started coming around the workshop asking me to help them with their over-glorified fragments of wood, cloth and plastic. I helped the first one, some girl with a burnt doll, but then I started ignoring them. After all, I wasn't going to start my job as a freelance toy repairman. It was all fine until I noticed some of them had started camping outside the door. Damn, kids these days really care about a toy more than they do about their time and well-being. So, telling myself that I do it to take my mind off my projects, I became the friendly neighborhood toy fixer.
Dr. Niculae: I see, but our reports state rumors that refer to past sightings of an anomalous mysterious handyman. What happened?
*there is a notable 10 second pause before SCP-XXXX's reply*
SCP-XXXX (avoiding eye contact) It all went well for a good while. I continued my work as usual, while the imps bothered me occasionally to help them patch their beloved objects. Thing is, you see, after I met that first kid, I did my best to not show my face to the little ones. Sure, I could've taken any form I wanted, it's not like I was hiding, but I didn't want them to get attached to me, so I decided not to let things become any more personal than needed. I hadn't thought it through too much and saw nothing wrong with it. And I was right, until about 2 years ago. You see, since my identity was a mystery, almost anyone with some craftsmanship skill could have claimed it was me. And, after some time, someone did. I don't really seek to play the part of the all-knowing deity here. I could gain all the information of every single atom in this universe if I wanted to, but why would I burden my mind with it? My stay here has been a rather peaceful one, not worrying about anyone or anything that doesn't threat the fabric of this reality. I didn't know a certain man had impersonated me. It did not come to my attention that a certain man had started attracting young customers to his own workshop to help them with their belongings… I didn't care that a certain man, with a specific interest in children, was doing his best to encourage them to trust the "good ol' toy fixer"… I didn't, until it was too late…
Dr. Niculae: Oh, God…-I mean, not God, but… it doesn't matter. This is indeed a terrible story.
SCP-XXXX: …after that, I went back into the shadow. There isn't a point to me interfering with your lives, so I try to continue my work as I always have, alone.
(brief pause)
SCP-XXXX: Anyways, I think we've talked enough for today, I'll just head off for now. Good luck.

Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Dr. Tudorache
Interview Date: 09/02/1980SCP-XXXX enters Site-28 through the main gate. There is visible confusion amongst the staff, but SCP-XXXX is soon recognized and prepared for an interview.
[Begin Log]
SCP-XXXX: Did you miss me?
Dr. Tudorache: We certainly have, SCP-XXXX. Your 3-year absence has left us wondering whether we upset you during the last interview.
SCP-XXXX: Ah, nonsense. I just buried myself in another project, didn't even realize what time it was. Anyway, I'm back, so let's roll.
Dr. Tudorache: Very well then. I would like to dive more into your relationship with SCP-343. From what you have told us, you two have even collaborated when crafting our reality.
SCP-XXXX: Ah, I guess I had this one coming sooner or later. Alright, I'll try to spare you the details. He and I have known each other a while before your universe was conceived. We shared similar interests and in time, started discussing project ideas. I came up with the possibility of making a system that would eventually come to be the world as you know it. I started doing the calculations and plans and I eventually ended up with a result I wasn't quite happy with. It worked, kind of, but not the way I intended it to. That's when Mister Burger-Tricks came in with one of his own little inventions, something which, by itself, would have been pretty useless, but it turned out to be the exact thing I needed to kickstart this reality.
Dr. Tudorache: Interesting. And, after creating it, did you simply allow the events to unfold by themselves, allowing nature to become the way it is today?
SCP-XXXX: Eh, not *exactly*. I mean, I tried to. I was extremely satisfied with how everything turned out and didn't see how I could improve it, so I started using it as a workspace for my future creations. He, on the other hand, had other ideas. I trusted him, so he has the same kind of power over reality, but I had veto-power over most of the decisions regarding altering the grid. After some time, he started complaining about how much more interesting we can turn this world into and that he feels like we should leave a more personal mark on the intelligent environment. I… uhm… respectfully disagreed. I didn't need other company or entertainment from this dimension. So what did he do? He knew that creating an entirely new species out of the blue would be immediately visible on the grid, so the nerdy bastard outsmarted me. He took a portion of an existing Earth species and modified its genetic code little by little over to make it evolve into what he thought was an ideal inhabitant for this world, a new species, shaped in his image, of course. Before I realized what had happened, the newly-called humans had already developed around the continent and modified the landscape around them to the point where resetting the timeline would've caused a potential system overload, and the rest of the universe was developing far too nicely to let it go to waste with a complete reboot. So… I let him keep you. I revoked some of his powers to make sure something like that never happens again, but he didn't seem to mind.
Dr. Tudorache: That means, we, as a species, owe our existence to SCP-343?
SCP-XXXX: Hey now. He wouldn't have had a place to place you in without me, so give me a little credit, too. I never understood his fascination with you guys, though. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure some of you are very nice, but there is so much flaw, pride, so much stupidity and evil amongst you. Yet he continues to try help you grow, to teach you. Eh, I don't know. As long as he doesn't mess with the flow of things or with the defense mechanism, I guess he's not hurting anyone.
Dr. Tudorache: Defense mechanism? Why would the universe require one?
SCP-XXXX: Ah, screw it, I'm talking out loud again. That's what happens when you spend so much time talking to yourself in your workshop like a lunatic. The… uhm… defence mechanism helps keep out… unwanted elements.
Dr. Tudorache: Unwanted elements? Does this have to do with the anomalous objects scattered around the Earth?
SCP-XXXX: Ugh, you and your Foundation with all of your "anomalies". This thing you call them, SCP's, is extremely vague, you know? You put everything you don't understand under the same name without even considering the links or discrepancies between them. Some of your "SCP's" are creations of mine. I'm pretty sure nerd-o also made a few, but I lost track of them. Others are simply natural or man-made events that you haven't reached the comprehension level to process. Lightning was once considered an SCP, right? And not to mention the ones that you yourselves are creating.
Dr. Tudorache: So, what you are saying is that there is no "true" anomalous out there and we are simply too limited to see past this conception?
SCP-XXXX: Well, I didn't say there isn't such thing as anomalous, just that not everything you find weird really is inexplicable. There… are some things around here… some pretty nasty things. I'm sure you've already managed to meet and capture some of them.
Dr. Tudorache: What do you mean? Where do these anomalies come from?SCP-XXXX (after sitting up from his armchair): A big bully.

Addendum XXXX.3: Although there is no clear evidence of its existence, Site-██, an exclusionary site responsible with the preservation documents in cases of CK-Class Scenarios has found what appears to be traces of an interview transcript somehow abolished from reality. Its number, content, and date it was recorded on are unavailable. Alongside it, another transcript was present and can be found below. The Foundation had, at the time, no registry or document attesting its existence.

SCP-XXXX: See? See?! This is what I was talking about. There are some …things, some… aspects of this world that simply mustn't be known in order for the engine to run as it should. I made a mistake. Huh, ironic, right? Imagine going to a believer and telling him God made "an oopsie". Anyways, I had to run some… errands and I got it to work again. It was close, though, I even for thought for a second I might have to do another full wipe. It doesn't matter, we're back to normal, so let's not do this again for a while, ok?
