'''SCP-202''' is a 41 year old Asian-British man whose every action is mysteriously performed in reverse, including talking, walking, eating, and breathing carbon dioxide while exhaling oxygen. In spite of his anomalous property, the man is shown to age at a regular rate. Foundation staff who are stationed to observation of him are left frustrated with how his eating functions work, as he ejects fully edible food from his stomach. Replaying his reversed speech in reverse allows for staff members to interview him.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: A commander has barred anyone from discussing about how he takes a shit, and expunged all records of the matter, stating that the poor guy deserves some privacy.

'''SCP-203''' is a man whose skeleton was replaced with a mechanical cast iron framework that moves on its own volition. This subcutaneous metal framework can be visibly observed from ruptures skin on the man's body. While he has no vocal cords, 203 can communicate verbally through a transducer located on his faceplate. He seems to understand a moderate amount of English, but his primary language appears to be a previously unknown Arabic dialect. He has no memory of his life before he entered this state, but reports that he feels near-constant pain and confusion.

'''SCP-205''' are a pair of floodlamps typically used in photography. When lit, the lamps will utilize shadows displayed on their light to tell a story detailing a woman who meets, has sex with, and is ultimately brutalized by a group of horned male humanoids. When the story ends, the lamps will turn off and the story will reset in a six-month cycle. If someone interrupts the story, an unseen force will brutally attack whoever is responsible in the same way as the woman.

'''SCP-206''' is the ''Invictus'', a Martian rover launched by a Russian space agency. Despite a successful launch, the ''Invictus'' ceased communication with its operators halfway to Mars and was declared lost. The rover reestablished connection a day after its planned landing, where it began sending photos of drastically different locations than Mars. The reason for why this occurred is unknown, but it has been theorized that the rover was given sentience by an otherworldly being.

* TheSleepless: Anyone who drink over 5 ml from the bottles will no longer attempt or need to sleep or rest.

'''SCP-210''' is a two-story mansion flooded with an unknown fluid. This fluid, designated '''SCP-210-01''', possesses a refraction level almost identical to that of water, and does not flow out of any open windows or doors within the building. Any living thing that comes into contact with the fluid will enter a trance-like state and begins floating along through the fluid as if they were neutrally buoyant. Instances of these people ('''SCP-210-02''') will emit a constant stream of bubbles as if exhaling, despite no source of air identified in the fluid, and subjects appearing to breathe as normal.

[[caption-width-right:471:213 demonstrating its animalous properties in containment.]]
'''SCP-213''' is an adolescent teenager who is able to forcefully sever the bonds between atoms in almost any form of matter, vaporizing the matter in question on physical contact. This effect has proven to be extremely painful to 213, extended use of the process causing enough pain to render him unconscious. It has gradually been revealed that his ability is caused by an extraterrestrial parasite taking up residence in his body.

** In another experiment an operating videocamera was placed inside the safe and the door closed. After some time the door was opened again and the videocamera removed. When the tape was played it showed that no time at all passed between the door being closed and opened again.

* ViralTransformation: It's a virus that causes the transformations.

'''SCP-228''' is a Polaroid photograph that randomly changes images when it is not directly observed. The photo appears to gather its subject matter from the subconscious mind of the current watcher, which will remain on the photograph until the current person looks away. Foundation scientists often use 228 to verify a person's personality and psychological profile, but any attempts to answer the question of what the photographs manifests as when unobserved is moot.

* CreepyChangingPainting: SCP-228 is a [[SpookyPhotographs Polaroid]] that changes when it is not observed and someone starts looking at it again. The contents depends on the new beholder's mental state, so it can be used as a strange sort of Rorschach test.

'''SCP-229''' is an expanding mass of electric wires and cables identified as a source of life. The mass acts a parasitic being, expanding itself by wrapping its tendrils around any objects displaying even a trace amount of electrical current. The mass can also attach itself to living things, but those it infects describe the process as painful, and will die shortly after.

* CompellingVoice: Not a direct consequence of the compound he produces but it is close, people exposed to the unnamed compound will comply to anything SCP-230 orders simply because they want to stay close to him.
* HaveAGayOldTime: When he refers to himself as the Gayest Man Alive, he's refering to the old defenition of happy instead of homosexual.
* LackOfEmpathy: A consequence of being incapable to feel negative emotions (guilt or remorse), SCP-230 is not "evil", but he doesn't seem to mind people dying so he could have more space.

'''SCP-234''' appears to be a species of fish of presumed extradimensional origin. The fish do not appear to have any eyes or light-sensitive organs, but they navigate via a highly evolved sense of echolocation. They maintain the ability to float in midair via a gas-filled organ similar to a swim bladder. These fish will also manifest only in a closed, air-filled space wherever such a space will exist. Any instances of the fish being startled or killed will result in all matter within the surrounding area will evacuated with enough force to instigate a catastrophic implosion.

'''SCP-241''' is a cookbook titled "'''Good Home Cooking'''", which will change the recipes listed within for each person who opens it. The book will allows whoever is currently reading it able to cook any recipe listed inside it, regardless of the subject's culinary expertise. After eating the cooked meal they prepare, the subject will die of anaphylactic shock.

[[caption-width-right:766:242 having very nearly sterlized some pond water.]]

'''SCP-244-1''' is a ceramic earthenware jar decorated with silver filigree. When the jar's cap is removed, condensed water vapor will flow from the receptacle. This vapor will lower the temperature and raise the humidity of every area it enters, and is known to contain '''SCP-244-2''', a gaseous entity taking the form of a cloud of fog. Because of its inordinately cold temperature, 244-2 will actively seek out any source of heat energy and envelop them, usually flash freezing the source in the procress.

'''SCP-247''' is a Bengal tiger that generates a perceptual effect on anyone who enters its radius, making subjects view it as a small, orange and black-striped housecat. The tiger utilizes this ability by using its perceived adorability to lure humans into petting it. After receiving the person's affection for several minutes, the tiger will to pounce on them, mauling and devouring them with a sense of ferocity.

'''SCP-252''' is a subspecies of the Humboldt Squid. When a squid detects that a threat is nearby, they will enter and aggravated state and activate their chromatophores while approaching the threat at massive speeds. The shifting of their colors has been seen to create hypnotic illusions in their threats' eyes, causing said threats, usually people, to perceive the squid as an immense, multi-limbed sea monster. 95% of these cases have resulted in the subject gaining an immense fear of cephalopods.

'''SCP-256''' is a typewriter whose keys are fixed in position and contains two concave copper discs stand on either end instead of a rollbar. EM readings show that a significant electrical charge passes between these copper discs without any conductive medium. If any prohibited items are brought into 256's containment chamber, this current increases in voltage and amplitude, eventually arcing out and striking the object in question. It is unknown where this extra energy comes from, as there seems to be no power generation source within the typewriter.

'''SCP-259''' is "'''The Weisenglass Spiral'''", a fractal image that acts as an interdimensional portal leading to differing areas throughout the multiverse. The locations that the Spiral can access appear to vary depending on size and orientation whenever the image is rendered. Documented areas the spiral as opened portals to include an area of deep space, an area filled with superheated plasma, and an area filled with an undocumented species of highly venomous cockroaches. The Foundation has uncovered that the Spiral is being used for malicious intent by an unknown party, and is working with several anti-terrorism organizations to hunt down those responsible.

[[caption-width-right:270:261 powered on and waiting to recieve yen.]]
'''SCP-261''' is a black vending machine that is capable of dispensing snack foods from alien worlds, alternate universes, and parallel dimensions. The factors of what snacks the machine dispenses include whether it is plugged into a power source, and the amount of yen is inserted into it. It has a numeric keypad as well, but whatever keys are pressed does not appear to have any correlation to what it dispenses. The machine also appears to have some degree of intelligence, as it has been known to lash out at people who interfere with its delivery system.

** A large chocolate "Kinder Matryoshka" egg containing more than 60 layers of candy eggshells with different flavors and a plastic sapphire in the center.

'''SCP-264''' is a 2 meter humanoid skeleton whose torso and upper pelvis consist of a a structure composed of an unknown metal, and resembling a temple with a door in the center. 264 is sentient, and is known to communicate through non-verbal methods, such as writing, sign language, and Morse code. On rare occasions, a designated statue within the temple will speak for the skeleton. 264 calls itself "The Guardian" and claims to be the creator of both the statues and the structure they "live" in, the statues themselves appearing to be aware of "The Guardian's" existence, since they have been observed retrieving several objects from the interior of the structure.

'''SCP-266''' is a collection of sentient, free-floating masses of gaseous material that possess a natural red or purple luminescence. Most instances of 266 feel cold to the touch, and exert an endothermic effect on their immediate surroundings. Despite having no nervous system, the masses appear to react to stimuli and have been observed to learn certain habits based upon its experiences. These masses are is remarkably fond of heat, actively seeking sources of it, be they natural or artificial. They primarily prefers human contact as their go-to method of obtaining warmth, but their endothermic nature will lead to death by hypothermia for those who are exposed without proper protection.

'''SCP-270''' is a black, nondescript, mid-20th century telephone whose power cord extend to indefinite length into the ground directly below it. The phone captured the Foundation's interest after they discovered an audio stream of encrypted messages ('''SCP-270-1''') emanating from its earphone, which soon proved valuable to giving information to the Foundation, including descriptions of containment breaches.

'''SCP-273''' is a middle-aged Native American woman who doesn't feel any need to eat or drink, although tests have confirmed that she is capable of doing both. When she eats within the consistent timespans where he is compelled by hunger, she combusts into a large pillar of flames, reducing her body to a white ash. The ash will gradually regenerate itself by consuming any raw material in its radius, ultimately allowing the woman to completely reform with a body identical to the previous one.

'''SCP-274''' is a form of paint that comes in many variable colors. When the paint is applied to a wall, it will begin to spread until it has completely covered the wall and any walls attached to it. Buildings that are inflicted with the paint appear will have large amounts of graffiti covering their exterior walls, the graffiti works themselves having many disturbing designs to them, and the buildings will eventually become instances of '''SCP-274-1'''. Infected buildings will exhibit signs of life, react to stimuli, and behave in a manner similar to many species of coral, luring passing civilians inside by emitting noises from within. As subjects search inside SCP-274-1, they will be recognized as food by instances of SCP-274-2, if any are present. When a victim enters any room inside 274-1, they will be met by '''SCP-274-2''', entities resembling gas mask wearing humanoids that manifest from 274. 274-2 will then apprehend the victim and turn them into another instance of themselves

'''SCP-276''' is a ship that is capable of travelling through time, taking on variable shapes, sizes, and mass, relevant to whatever era it exists in. The vessel's time-travelling abilities activate whenever someone enters its bridge and shifts the throttle to any of the gears listed on it, taking the subject throughout history. Currently, the Foundation is uncertain if the ship is capable of changing the course of history, but all of their research into the vessel is dedicated to making sure that it does not damage the timeline.

* TwinTelepathy: What ever thoughts or sensations one of them experiences, the other will feel as well.

'''SCP-287''' is a Viking sword comprised primarily of iron, with several potentially anomalous components incorporated into its structure. The sword's anomalous effect can be observed when an electrical current is applied through the metallic portions of its hilt. The sword's internal components will begin to emit several frequencies of electromagnetic radiation and varying sounds invariably described as distressing by research staff and test subjects. The radiation produced by the sword causes all humans exposed to it to experience acute audio-visual hallucinations and severe headaches. These hallucination primarily take the form of translucent human-like figures in the immediate vicinity, invariably outfitted as members of an armed force.

'''SCP-289''' is a black, irregularly shaped mass of crystalized hematite, with trace amounts of aluminum, phosphorous, and water analyzed in its interior. The mass has the unique property of intensifying the effects of inertia over all objects in a 1.6 meter radius of it over time. Objects that remain immobile will become more and more difficult to move, while objects that maintain a constant speed will become very difficult to stop.

* MadeOfIndestructium: The cups dispensed by the machine appear to be just paper, but withstand liquids such as SCP-075's acid, superheated water, and liquid carbon ([[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon#Characteristics an element which normally doesn't even melt except under high pressure]]).

'''SCP-296''' is an amphitheater located in a chamber below Armed Containment Site-03's previous location, around which are seated 56 humanoid and made of a substance similar at first glance to ice. Several D Classes were lost in attempts to examine the structure and its figures. Said D Classes personnel were discovered to have died or to have been brutally maimed, with several of them being "merged" together.

'''SCP-297''' is a transparent plastic vibrator, with an internal structure that has been heavily altered, via its standard 6 V power supply being converted into what appears to be a miniature plutonium powered nuclear reactor. When turned to the highest intensity setting (labeled "suicide"), the device's vibration frequency swiftly increases to upwards of 200,000 kHz. If the upper portion of the device is touched to any solid material, the device will change frequency to one that causes a positive harmonic feedback loop in the object, causing it to lose cohesion within sixty seconds of continual contact. This will invariably kills any organisms that it is exposed to.

* TheVirus: If any part of an instance SCP-299 (even a single cell) touches or is inserted into a plant or animal, it will change the plant or animal into another SCP-299. The total time required depends on how large the plant or animal is.

'''SCP-318''' appears to be a small, crude rotary printing press, with a great deal of additional machinery attached to it. When a human, either alive or dead for less than 6 hours, is placed in the input box and the lid is closed, the device activates via an undetermined power source, and will remain active for approximately 5 minutes per use, with the exact time seemingly dependent upon the mass and physical condition of the subject. When 318 ceases activity, all covers will unlock and the test subject will no longer be present in the input box. A scroll (designated '''SCP-318-1''') will bw present in the output box, containing the memories and consciousness of the test subject, who is able to communicate through writing and drawins when the scroll is at least partially unrolled.

'''SCP-262''' is a European military greatcoat dating from a period between the late 1500s to the early 1900s. Carbon dating the coat has generated inconclusive results, placing the coat's age in the range of 6,200 to 6,400 years old.
262 is capable of manifesting numerous humanoid and semi-human arms from within its inner lining. Any subject wearing the coat needs only to open it to materialize the arms, which will be somewhat under the subject's control.

'''SCP-224''' is a wooden grandfather clock whose hands do not seem to move with a known consistency. The clock will release its chimes at a random interval ranging from a minute to several months. The sound of the clock's chimes cause localized temporal acceleration every time they sound.. Any object or person that is in the clock's radius and hears its chimes will age rapidly in a matter of seconds.

* KillAllHumans: Despite otherwise acting like a normal tiger, it seems to prefer humans - not only does it mutilate and toy with humans it meets instead of killing them quickly like normal prey, but it's noted to have ''killed or attempted to kill every human it has the opportunity to,'' even when it's not hunting. The Foundation surmises that it could be a predator who adapted to singularly hunt humans.

'''SCP-242''' is an in-ground swimming pool with stairs, an in-pool vacuum, and a dual waterfall. that will convert any foreign material inside it into sterilized pool water to keep itself clean, and this water will remain sterile even when removed from the pool and placed in an non-sterile environment. A couple in a relationship who snuck into the owners' yard to use the pool were the first subjected to this process.

'''SCP-365''' is a green pool noodle manufactured out of polyethylene foam. While typically unassuming from most pool noodles, 365's anomalous properties manifest when it is placed in a body of water. Any subject who completely submerges themselves in the same body of water as 365 will suddenly find themselves unable to get out. 365 is said to have terminated the lives of several Foundation agents tasked with retrieving it, as they were un aware of its anomalous properties at the time.

'''SCP-333''' are 1,618 identical copies of a musical score of unknown origin and title. When the score is performed by an orchestra of sufficient size, this causes the manifestation of '''SCP-333-B.''' 333-B is a metropolis devoid of any signs of life, past or present. For as long as a performance of the score continues, SCP-333-B may be traversed. Following the cessation of the performance, the city dematerializes, along with anything that has entered it at the time. The city is inhabitated by '''SCP-333-C''', a highly aggressive entity of varying appearance and composition. All manifestations of 333-C have proven much more durable than its composition would suggest, requiring considerable firepower to terminate outside of the city, and possessing apparent invincibility within its confines.

%%* TheDreaded: Not to the same extent as 173, but it still qualifies.

* LogicalWeakness: Terrifying as it may be, it is only capable of manifesting behind ''one'' door at a time. The Foundation thus makes sure all rooms on the site have ''two'' doors spaced apart far enough so that personnel can escape if it appears behind one door.
