Thalassophobia
Item #: SCP-5736
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-5736 was discovered on May ██, ████, in Scranton, PA, when a family of three reported the son missing. Police had searched the area that the child was reported missing and found the anomaly. As soon as the Foundation heard reports of this, they used amnestic on everyone involved and built-up site-██ around the anomaly.
The site is to be surrounded by MTF unit gamma-6, Deep Feeders, and personnel watching the security cameras that surround SCP-5736-A’s containment cell at all times, and in case of a breach, will have the task of activating the onsite explosive. SCP-5736-A’s containment chamber should not be entered for any reason, and if any personnel feels the need to enter, if possible, they should be restrained and be put into a separate containment chamber and monitored until approved by the lead doctor, ████████. After this they will be anesthetized and reassigned. If personnel are unable to contain them, deadly force is authorized to be used to terminate the afflicted individual. If they still manage to get into the containment area, they are free to go into the anomaly and is considered DIA.
If any entities emerge from SCP-5736-A, it is to be immediately terminated, assigned as SCP-5736-B, and subjected to examination. If there is ever a breach of containment, an onsite explosive will be set off, and a MTF unit will search the area and terminate any surviving anomalies they find. After that, the site must be rebuilt immediately as to contain SCP-5736-A once more.
Description: SCP-5736-A appears to a hole in the ground that expands into total darkness. Night vision equipment is useless to see through the darkness. The darkness ripples as if it were a water-like liquid, but despite that, tests have proven that it is very thick and viscous. Objects sink into the liquid very slowly, similar to quicksand. The liquid’s temperature is constantly at absolute zero, despite all attempts at heating it. Due to this, there is also a thick fog surrounding the hole that heats at a normal rate. Most conventional means of heating the liquid has been used, but all have yielded no result. Tests have proved that, despite the cold temperatures, touching the liquid has no negative effects. Subjects have reported a calmness and a sense of euphoria when they come into contact with the liquid. After a few hours subjects who have come into direct contact have developed a strong interest in returning and entering SCP-5736-A and will express hostility toward anyone who tries to interfere with their attempts at entering the anomaly. In one case a D-class was able to forcibly push past the researchers and enter the containment area. Despite warnings from researchers that it was not safe, the D-class jumped into the hole. Unlike all other things that were tested, the D-class went through the liquid with little resistance. He had very quickly disappeared into the darkness. Other D-class that were tested before this incident had no reaction or desire to do the same. As a result, testing with human subjects have been limited, and tests have proven that after an unset amount of time the desire dissipates. Prolonged exposure to the liquid will start to deform and mutate the subject, most times resulting in the D-class dying, but in some cases, they will gain immense strength and overpower the team, usually resulting in casualties, and jumping into the hole. In one case, a mutated human went on a rampage, killing most of the research team and escaping. These mutations only happen with direct contact with the liquid, and a protective suit will protect individuals from any mutation, though they might still experience a slight desire to stay in the liquid. they will still be able to make actions of their own free will and are not under complete control by the anomaly. There have been cases of people that are not affected by the by the anomalies mind altering ability, those being the entirety of the current MTF unit gamma-6 and two others that were tested on. There have been no tests with people that are not affected by the mutations.
Exploration Log 5736-1: MTF Unit Gamma-6 was sent on a mission to explore beyond the entrance of the anomaly. They were to go out as far as possible or until they were told to return.
