Special Containment Procedures:
President Barack Obama during an SCP-XXXX event
The current president of the United States of America is to be video recorded every night between 19:45 and 20:001, with their face and/or arms in view.
This is usually done automatically via concealed cameras located within and around the white house, congress, common presidential speaking avenues, and the president's private home(s). If foundation officials learn that the president is going to be outside these areas between 19:40 and 20:00 on any given night, an agent should be dispatched to fit the location with concealed cameras beforehand. This is considered a Level 1/Dark Response Situation2.
All recorded footage is stored automatically in terminal 12, site 10. It will then be fed through an algorithm to check for any deviances from SCP-XXXX's standard behavior. The Algorithm should be checked for faults annually.
Description: SCP-XXXX is the name given to an anomalous phenomenon affecting the president of the United States; every night, at exactly 19:53, the President will scratch their nose, regardless of any external factors. This is not due to a direct compulsion to do so but is simply the result of their nose becoming spontaneously itchy.
Discovery: SCP-XXXX was first discovered in 1982 by the second iteration of the Anomalous Signature Recognition Program3 after being given access to the foundation's Important Political Actors Video Archive, which contained enough footage of presidents scratching their nose for A.S.R.P.2 to detect the anomaly.
Special Containment Procedures:
Former President Barack Obama during an SCP-XXXX-A event
The Incumbent president of the United States of America must be video recorded at all times, preferably with full face in view. Recording the president's face between 19:45 and 20:054 is a Level 5/Amida Response situation5.
To achieve this task, the white house, congress, common presidential speaking avenues, and any private homes of the incumbent are to be fitted with as many discreet, hidden cameras as are required to keep their nose and/or arms in view at all times. Furthermore, agents embedded in the white house are to keep track of the president's schedule. The president is to be surveyed on any trips out of Washington with hidden cameras and if necessary, long-range surveillance drones or spy agents. All footage is to analyzed live by CXXXX.amk for deviances from normal behavior. CXXXX.amk is to be checked for any faults weekly.
Between the times 19:40 and 20:10, MTF Theta-20 ("Sniffle Squad") is to always be within five minutes' travel distance of the president. If at 19:53, the president does not scratch their nose, Theta-20 is to be immediately dispatched to their location. Site 43 has been established nearby the White House to accommodate Theta-20 and give them quick access to the president in the case that an XXXX-B event occurs inside the White House. Additionally, one member of Theta-20 is to be embedded in the White House at all times.
In the event of an XXXX-B event, all available Mobile Task Forces are to be mobilized to enact protocol 34.
Description: SCP-XXXX is the name given to an anomalous phenomenon affecting the President of the United States; every night, at exactly 19:53, the president will scratch their nose6, regardless of any external factors. This is not due to a direct compulsion to do so but is simply the result of their nose becoming spontaneously itchy.
Occasionally, for an unknown reason, the president will receive no spontaneous itch at 19:537. If this happens, and the president subsequently does not scratch their nose, an instance of SCP-XXXX-1 will materialize instantly approximately 123 000 km away from Earth.
SCP-XXXX-1 is an asteroid usually measuring around 20km in diameter, and traveling at around 18 km/s. If SCP-XXXX-1 were to collide with the Earth, it would result in an XK end-of-the-world scenario, causing humans, as well as all other large animal species, to go extinct. Upon materialization, SCP-XXXX-1 will collide with the Earth in ∼1hr, unless the president scratches their nose during that time, in which case SCP-XXXX-1 will instantly dematerialize.
Discovery: SCP-XXXX was first discovered in 1982 by the second iteration of the Anomalous Signature Recognition Program8 after being given access to the foundation's Important Political Actors Foundation Video Archive, which contained enough footage of presidents scratching their nose for A.S.R.P.2 to detect the anomaly.
Addendum XXXX-1: Incident Reports
Incident XXXX-1-A, 2013/10/18
At 19:56 UTC-5 (Washington Time), Site-Gamma9 reported to Overseer Command that an anomalous object, 19.7km in diameter, had materialized in the solar system and was heading towards Earth. They predicted that it would collide with Earth in 1hr and 05m. At 19:59, the O5 Council voted 13-0 to declare a code black emergency and enact protocols 3 and 34. (Protocol 27 could not be enacted due to the lack of notice to the object's arrival).
| Protocol | Description |
|---|---|
| 34 | In the case of a large anomalous entity appearing in the solar system without notice, protocol 34 is to be enacted in order to preserve normalcy. All astronomical organizations with observational equipment capable of viewing the object are to be disrupted through either direct or indirect means for the duration of the object's arrival. |
| 3 | In the case of an imminent anomalous threat with an unknown cause and no known way to stop it, all SCP objects currently in the foundation's possession are to be checked for physical alterations and deviations from normal behavior in order to find a potential cause for, and subsequently, a possible solution to the threat. |
At 20:15, Site 10 reported to Overseer Command a deviance of behavior in SCP-XXXX.
At 20:18, Overseer Command contacted site-12, located within the Washington metropolitan area, to assemble a temporary MTF for the purpose of making the president scratch his nose.
The following is an emergency call between Overseer Command (O5-7) and Site-12 Director Aster Williams
<Begin Log, 20:18>
O5-7: Aster, we need a Temporary MTF assembled and sent to D.C. Immediately. This is a code black priority.
Site 12 Director: Understood, what's the target?
O5-7: The target is President Obama. We need him to scratch his nose in the next 54 minutes. Use any means necessary to get this done. Is that all clear?
Site 12 Director: [slight pause]
Site 12 Director: Uh, if I might ask, Which sk-
O5-7: Listen, we're really running out of options here. Can you just do it?
Site 12 Director: I- [Site 12 Director sighs]. Yes. I'll get it done.
O5-7: Good luck Site-12. Don't fuck this up.
End of transmission.
At 20:36, Temporary Mobile Task Force Epsilon-33 successfully infiltrated the White House under the guise of secret service agents and achieved the mission goal at 20:51, neutralizing the threat.
Mission Report XXXX-1-A
Goal: To make President Barack Obama scratch his nose before 21:00.
Personnel involved: TMTF Epsilon-33, comprised of Agents Young-Soo Ryu (Commander), Rose Maryland, Henry Farmer, Jarvis Bradley, Sam McCarthy, Sara Lineham, and Benjamin Jackson.
Mission Plan: Agents Ryu, Maryland, Farmer, and Bradley (ε-33-A) enter the White House under the guise of Secret Service and locate the president while Agents McCarthy, Lineham, and Jackson (ε-33-B) secure the perimeter under the guise of cleaners and gardeners.
Mission Transcript:
Note: For clarity, non-foundation persons have been highlighted in blue.
AT 20:26 TMTF ε-33 leaves Site-10 en route to The White House in a black van10 (driven by Agent Farmer) disguised as a secret service vehicle.

Agent Young-Soo Ryu: We're ten minutes away from the target.
Command: Copy.
Agent Henry Farmer: Wait, ten minutes? I'm not sure we can get there in less than fiftee-
Agent Ryu: Ten minutes.
[There is the sound of screeching tires as ε-33 speeds up, swerving around multiple vehicles.]
Agent Farmer: Shit!
[Multiple car horns can be heard behind ε-33]
Command: Is everything alright?
Agent Ryu: Everything is going fine command- Run that red light!
[ε-33 turns, barely avoiding collision with a blue car. Multiple screams can be heard behind ε-33]

<Cut to 20:35>
Agent Ryu: We've arrived at the target location.
Command: Copy.
[ε-33's vehicle abruptly stops in front of the white house]
Agent Ryu: (To Agents McCarthy, Lineham, and Jackson) Wait three minutes before getting out of the vehicle. Make sure no one sees you exit.
Agent Sam McCarthy: Understood.
Agent Rose Maryland: Shit. eight o'clock.
[50 meters away two men in dark suits are watching the vehicle]
Agent Ryu: Ignore them. Follow me. [Agent Ryu steps out of the vehicle and heads towards the White House entrance, followed by Agents Maryland, Farmer, and Bradley. All are disguised as secret service]
Command: Twenty-three minutes to midnight.
[ε-33-A enters the White House entrance. Ten seconds later they are stopped by a man in a grey suit]

[Obama pauses, looking at Agent Ryu with a confused facial expression]
Obama: What?
[Agent Ryu draws his gun]
Agent Ryu: Scratch your fucking nose Obama!
[Obama achieves the mission goal]
<End Log>
Aftermath: At 21:07, MTF Alpha-45 "Janitors" arrived at the White House. Amnestics were given to all non-foundation personnel involved, the White House was restored to its previous state, and any unknown civilian witnesses outside the White House were later discredited.
At 20:52, Site-Gamma reported that SCP-XXXX-1 had dematerialized. At 20:53, the O5 council voted 13-0 to end the code black emergency and protocol 34.
Following Incident XXXX-1-A, SCP-XXXX was reclassified and new containment procedures were written, including the creation of Site-43 and MTF Theta-20, tasked with containing SCP-XXXX.
Incident XXXX-1-B, 2015/6/22
At 19:55 UTC-5, Site-Gamma reported to Overseer Command that SCP-XXXX-1 had manifested 123 650km away from Earth and would collide in 1hr and 15m at 21:10. At 19:57, Overseer Command declared a code black emergency and enacted protocol 34. (Protocol 27 could not be enacted due to the lack of notice to the object's arrival).
At 21:38 MTF Theta-20 successfully neutralized the threat.
Mission Report XXXX-1-B
Goal: To make President Barack Obama scratch his nose before 21:05.
Personnel involved: Agent Rose Lineheart of MTF Theta-20, embedded in the white house secret service following Incident XXXX-1-A in case of another XXXX-B event.
<Begin Log, 20:00>
Site-43 Command: Agent Lineheart, we have been informed that XXXX-B has materialized. Current intel suggests that President Obama is located in the White House. The rest of Theta-20 will arrive in five minutes.
Agent Rose Lineheart: Understood Command. En route to the Oval Office now.
[Agent Lineheart spends twenty seconds walking in the direction of the Oval Office]
Site Command: Cameras are showing President Obama in the Resident Villa. I repeat, target is in Residence Villa.
Agent Lineheart: Copy, changing course to Resident Villa.
[Agent Lineheart reaches the Resident Villa after three minutes]
Agent Lineheart: I have reached the target's location. Is there anyone else in the Villa?
Site Command: Not currently. Target appears to be asleep. Use of T-128C is suggested.
Agent Lineheart: Copy, proceeding to target.
[Agent Lineheart spends two minutes silently walking towards the target's bedroom]
Agent Lineheart: I have reached the target's location. Entering now.
Site Command: Copy
[Agent Lineheart slowly pushes open the door to target's bedroom. Target is seen unmoving, sleeping in bed. Agent Lineheart slowly walks towards their location and examines them]
Agent Lineheart (whispering): Using T-128C now.
Site Command: Copy.
[Agent Lineheart uses T-128C on target. After seven seconds there is no response]
Agent Lineheart (whispering): No response. Attempting again.
[Agent Lineheart uses T-128C on target for a second time, this time on a different location on the nose. After five seconds, there is still no response from target]
Agent Lineheart (whispering): No response, permission to attempt third time.
Site Command: Granted, proceed.
[As Agent Lineheart is about to use T-128C again, target rolls over in bed. Agent Lineheart pauses briefly, attempting to check the status of the target. Target appears to still be asleep. Lineheart uses T-128C on their nose. After five seconds the target tickles the underside of their nose]
[Mission is declared a success]
<End Log>
At 20:07 Site-Gamma reported that SCP-XXXX-1 had dematerialized. At 20:09, Overseer Command declared the end of the code black emergency and protocol 34.
Following Mission XXXX-1-B, the use of T-128C for the purpose of inciting unconscious nasal rubbing was discontinued in favor of more reliable methods.
Additional Data:
Mission Tool-128C
Designed For: MTF Theta-20 for the purpose of containing SCP-XXXX in case the President is unconscious during an XXXX-B event.
Designed By: Dr. Everret Mann, senior engineer at Site-88's Euclid Containment Wing.
A final prototype of T-128C
Use Guide: T-128C is composed mainly of a metal cylinder. There is a light at the top and a thin slit on the base. At the back of the cylinder there is a switch that is used to turn the flashlight off and on.
A discreet button at the bottom of the cylinder is used to eject a feather-like device from the slit. The same button can be used to retract the device back into the slit. A plastic cap (T-128C-A) is supplied with T-128C and can be placed over the base to hide the slit. To remove the cap, squeeze both sides and twist.
Incident XXXX-1-C, 2020/6/22
Addendum XXXX-2: Additional Files
I've attached the following files to this document because I believe they may have some connection to SCP-XXXX. Further investigation is underway.

Document 1: Archeological Item 545-K
Item 545-K
Item 545-K is a paper scroll estimated to be roughly 600 years old. It was acquired by Project Carnarvon in 2004 during an excavation in Chile. It was then transferred to Site-77 for long term storage.
An Illustration on Item 545-K
Item 545-K is designated anomalous-adjacent. It does not show any anomalous traits but was excavated among multiple other anomalous items (827-K, 172-K, and 232-M), giving it the possibility of being related to an anomaly. Similar to many of the other items excavated alongside 545-K, analysis shows that it likely originated from outside Chile.
The writing upon 545-K is titled "The Legend of Two Heaven's Curse" and has multiple illustrations alongside it. The following is a transcription of the writings on 545-K:
The sky danced and the mountains waltzed, as the gates of Two Heavens burst open. And the clouds cried rivers of joy and the waves sung, as Haigore the wanderer glided down Two Heaven’s steps. When his mighty hoof touched the mortal grass there was a choir of joy among the spirits. He had come to embrace us with his presence, and enlighten us with his oh so shimmering horns. Heavens, do they shine.
The savage ones were not ignorant of his company. They gazed upon his mane just like the scavengers and prancers and scuttlers of their land. They did not miss their opportunity to bring sweet gifts and melodic prayers to his steel hoofs. And they did nary a curse upon Haigore’s name. But we could not settle for a life with the spirits, a blissful existence beneath the eyes in the dark sky. For this, we must be cursed.
For there did come a time when we tore the bodies of the stone spirits apart and with their flesh constructed false caves and bedeviled monuments. We left the forests behind and subjected ourselves to the horror of famine and plague. And we sacrificed our will to mortals masquerading as false gods and built them hideous fortresses and bloody banners.
Our hearts knotted, our spirits caged, and our honor stolen by weak kings, our long knives, and flying daggers turned on Haigore. May we be forever cursed. And our armies, blinded by loyalty to demonic men, descended upon his glorious hide. His skin was torn, may we be never forgiven, and his bones were crushed, may their souls live in forever hell, and his shining horns were cleaved from his skull. Severed from his soul, his mighty horns no longer illuminated the darkest of caves and the blackest of hearts, but the King did not care. He gleefully displayed them beside his throne alongside his assortment of stolen valor.
Shatter and roar did the skies. Shake and crumble did the castle. The furious soul of Haigore pumped through the veins of every tree and rock, every cloud and wave. The cowardly king, fearful of Haigore’s burning eyes, tore off his wretched robes and begged the world for forgiveness. The world was Haigore, and the world answered back: Perform a spectacular ritual for the dead lord every night at the Ninth Sun’s hour! Then your dreadful kingdom may be left alone to stand upon my dirt!
The King brought his wordsmith, highest of the slaves, to craft him a ritual. One that would please Haigore. And so The wordsmith designed the most intricate and graceful ritual, one full of passion and grace. But of course, the King’s tar filled heart had nill room for any passion or love. And so he demanded that the wordsmith cast away his art, may his soul forever burn, and devise a most convenient ritual. Fit for a king. And so at the Ninth Sun’s hour, what did the King perform? What ritual did he see fit to perform for Haigore, the most divine? The one slain at his very hands? A rubbing of the nasal. Curse his wicked crown.
And so the wordsmith sacrificed his long life ahead of him to his new dismal duty: herding the childish king away from the world’s destruction because his rotted mind could not bother to remember even to perform the most pathetic of rituals. May his corpse forever scream.
Finally, when the wordsmith’s wrinkled body was approaching the gates of Asgard, he was surely relieved of his duties: The King choked on his own glutton and his soul tumbled into the 8th layer of misery. But alas, Haigore’s fury was rightfully endless, and on that day, none curse did wither.
And so as the sky screamed a furious red and the trees and as the clouds cried for mercy, the wordsmith sped atop horseback to meet the newest of kings before the blade of Haigore cut through the world’s heart. And just as Death rapped his bony knuckles upon the door, he guided the young King in performing the dreadful ritual. If the curse may not die, then the wordsmith may not either, for this was his duty and his duty was all. So to this day, from beyond the grave, he continues to guide King after Tyrant in their appeasement of Haigore at the Ninth Sun’s hour.
But do not mourn our caged soul and twisted heart. Our rightful end will be here soon. For no mortal can be immortal forever.
Document 2: Department of Spectral Phenomena Report SE-556
Department of Spectral Phenomena
Spectral Entity No. 556
Status: Active, SCP Classification Pending
Location: USA, District of Columbia, particularly the area surrounding Capitol Hill
Description: SE-556 appears to be a man in his 70's who wears a long brown trenchcoat, dark pants, a pair of glasses, black boots, and a dark trilby hat with a feather on its side. According to the Hollow-Kessler Spectral Classification System, SE-556 is a Class II Spectral Entity (It lacks malevolence and expresses a very limited ability to interact with the physical world).
Behaviour: For most of the day, SE-556 is fairly dormant. They will wander from street to street occasionally but spend most of their day sitting at benches in parks or at the wharf (outlooking Potomac River). While sitting they may watch pedestrians or animals, read outdated newspapers (Newspapers are also ectophysical), stare up at the sky, or sleep. Notably, SE-556 seems to disappear every day at around 7:52 PM and return about ten minutes later. SE-556 can also be seen occasionally toying with the feather in its hat. SE-556 cannot be seen at night.
Addendum: Analysis of SE-556's behavior by the psychological department has concluded that SE-556 is experiencing the early stages of dementia.
