Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be stored in a locked box in Low Value Item Storage in Site-19. One guard is to be assigned to SCP-XXXX at all times, and is to remain in possession of the key to the box. Outside of testing purposes, no personnel are to make physical contact with SCP-XXXX. Any personnel who do make contact with SCP-XXXX are to be sedated immediately. In the event SCP-XXXX must be transported outside of its box, personnel are to wear standard Foundation hazmat-safe gloves.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a coffee mug, capable of holding approximately 295 ml (10 fl oz) of liquid. SCP-XXXX is believed to be made from white-glazed ceramic , with the words “World’s Greatest Mug” written in black on the side of the mug. The mug has one handle, as is typical for coffee mugs. Writing on the bottom claims that SCP-XXXX was produced by “Superior Caffeine Products”, allegedly based in Chicago, Illinois. Investigation has yielded no evidence that the company in question exists.
Testing has shown SCP-XXXX to be completely or near completely indestructible. Testing with impacts of varying strengths, as well as extreme temperatures, have failed to cause any damage.
SCP-XXXX’s primary effects occur when an individual makes physical contact with SCP-XXXX, usually by picking it up using the handle. Following this, SCP-XXXX will immediately fill with a hot, brown liquid. Samples of this liquid reveal it to be non-anomalous coffee.
Additionally, while in contact with SCP-XXXX, subjects experience symptoms consistent with caffeine exposure, including increased heartrate and brain activity, as well as sleeplessness. Tests show that this coincides with an amount of caffeine entering the subject’s bloodstream through unknown means. These symptoms will gradually increase in severity while the subject maintains contact with SCP-XXXX. After approximately 24 hours of exposure, subjects will expire in a manner consistent with caffeine overdose.
In the event that the subject is removed from contact with SCP-XXXX, they will begin to exhibit symptoms of caffeine withdrawal, the severity of which is proportional to the time of contact. If the subject has been in contact for more than approximately 1 minute, they will actively seek to resume contact when removed, displaying extreme agitation and aggressive behavior to anything they perceive to be preventing them from making contact with SCP-XXXX. After approximately six hours of contact, this effect is permanent.
After twelve hours of sustained contact with SCP-XXXX, subjects removed from contact will die, typically via cardiac arrest induced by severe caffeine withdrawal.
