Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: Item is to be contained within a standard Anomalous Items Locker, with no supervision required. SCP-XXXX-2 is to be contained within a Standard Humanoid Containment Cell equipped with an oven, with access to the ingredients for unleavened bread (i.e. flour, water, salt and milk) and a freshly killed calf as requested. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS SCP-XXXX-2 TO BE PROVIDED WITH A LAMB OR OTHER OVINE.

Description: SCP-XXXX (when being worn to be referred to as SCP-XXXX-1) is a kethōneth in pristine condition, in a style consistent with the Late Bronze Age. Upon closer inspection, the fabric appear to be interwoven with strands of beryllium bronze, an alloy well known for its anomalous connections. When worn by a human (hereafter referred to as SCP-XXXX-2), subject begins to acquire abilities similar to those of prophets of the Old Testament. Common abilities include healing, the calling down of fire (in a manner identical to that in 1 Kings 18:38) and communing with the dead. SCP-XXXX-2 will also become increasingly devoted to worshipping the God of the Old Testament, and acquire a taste for unleavened bread and roasted calf meat. There has been observed a positive correlation between length of time SCP-XXXX-1 is worn and the strength of the abilities/beliefs. With regards to prophetic powers, it appears SCP-XXXX-2 suffers from the curse of Cassandra; all prophecies made by SCP-XXXX-2 are shown to be truthful, but they are never believed. When shown evidence of SCP-XXXX-2's prediction having come true, those exposed to the original prophecy will be unable to perceive such evidence. When SCP-XXXX-1 is removed, the ex-wearer loses any anomalous abilities and in many cases any memory of his time wearing SCP-XXXX-1.

+ Incident-XXXX-A

20/06/20: A member of the maintenance team was found wearing SCP-XXXX, having been coerced by SCP-XXXX to put it on. After this incident it was concluded SCP-XXXX has memetic effects, causing a strong desire to humans in close proximity wear it, an effect that disappears when the item is worn. Object class altered to Euclid, containment procedures revised. Note: We found the janitor talking to the soul of the prophet Samuel with a half-eaten fresh loaf of unleavened bread sitting beside him. How the fuck he got his hands on that, I don't know. It was still warm, for Christ's sake!! - Dr Phineas Lector

+ Incident-XXXX-B

02/07/20: A freshy-killed lamb was accidentally delivered to SCP-XXXX-2's cell rather than a calf. SCP-XXXX-2 expressed gratitude for the corpse and smeared its blood on the frame of his cell door, then roasted and ate it. That night, guards reported hearing, variably, a "whoosh", a "cold wind", a "loud exhale", "a very quiet child's scream" and "I don't know what the hell it was but it creeped me out, man." The following morning, the first-born children of all researchers working on SCP-XXXX were found to have died in the night of massive intra-cranial haemorrhaging, resulting in 4 resignations, 2 suicides and 10 co-signatories of a letter demanding the summary termination of SCP-XXXX-2 (Approved, SCP-XXXX moved to a new host). Note: For fuck's sake. - Dr Phineas Lector, who is aware of his surname's similarity to that of the infamous movie cannibal and would appreciate it if everyone would stop mentioning it, thank you so much.

Test A - 22/06/20

Subject:
D-XXXX-1, a lifelong atheist.
Procedure:
D-XXXX-1 was given SCP-XXXX and instructed not to put it on.
Results:
After 4 hours, D-XXXX-1 shouts "I can't stand it anymore dude! I have to do this! I have to put it on!", before becoming SCP-XXXX-2. The events following are tabulated below.

Days since clothing	Observations
1	D-1812, a chronic tinnitus sufferer, was brought to SCP-XXXX-2, who was instructed to heal her. Attempt fails. SCP-XXXX-2 reports religion as "Worship of the God of Israel, the Creator of the Universe."
2	SCP-XXXX-2 requests and is granted a Jewish Bible and a pen. Subject spends 11 hours studying and writing in Bible. Upon retrieval, annotations were noted in the margins of many chapter, notably Exodus 12 and 1 Samuel 28. Annotations were in Aramaic, a language of which the subject previously had no knowledge. Translated with the help of Cain whom, upon reading the annotations, blinked once and said "Goodness".
3	D-1812 is returned to SCP-XXXX-2's cell, request repeated. SCP-XXXX-2 places one hand on either of her ears, mutters in Aramaic, and says aloud "Go now. Tell the world of what has happened here." D-1812 reports a complete absence of tinnitus symptoms. Later that day, SCP-XXXX-2 begins to repeatedly strike his cell door while shouting: "She who was once afflicted, tomorrow shall meet an end deserving of the Philistines! Save her! She has done no wrong!" Note: it is the opinion of this member of Dr Lector's junior staff that D-1812 will not come to any harm. She will be kept under armed guard for the next 24hrs to ensure this.
4	SCP-XXXX-2 requests ingredients for unleavened bread, and a "fatted calf". Ingredients and a freshly killed calf provided. SCP-XXXX-2 expresses gratitude, baking the bread and roasting the calf. He then invites guards into dine with him. Despite being ordered to remain in their posts, they accept his invitation. They remain inside for approximately 5 hours and 41 minutes. Upon leaving, Mr
