SCP-2000 - Deus Ex Machina

SCP-2000 is a subterranean Foundation facility originally constructed for the purpose of reconstructing human civilization in the event that an end-of-the-world scenario cannot be averted in time to prevent humanity's extinction. Since its inception, 2000 has been activated at least twice. To fulfill its primary mission, The cloning machines within this facility include 500,000 Bright/Zartion Hominid Replicators. At peak capacity, the facility is capable of producing 100,000 viable, non-anomalous humans per day, with a computer memory bank housing data on all known human alleles capable of recreating any lost human genome or generating as many new and unique genomes as necessary to repopulate human civilization. Humans produced by this process can be advanced to any age desired without extending the facility’s 5 day incubation period.
  • Alternate Timeline: This thing has apparently run different versions of the twentieth century and segments thereof dozens of times. This creates in-universe confusion in a few other entries, since nobody has figured out a way to tell for sure what is a parallel timeline and what is an earlier iteration of this one.
  • Brain Uploading: Both played straight and inverted. Preexisting neural patterns are loaded into the clones. Copies of neural patterns of important personnel are updated as well.
  • Brainwashing for the Greater Good: Previous cycles have already toned down humanity's violent tendencies. They can't do any more of this without doing more harm than good.
  • Clark's Third Law: It's explicitly stated that there's nothing anomalous about SCP-2000 and that it uses methods developed by the Foundation.
  • Clones Are People, Too: Exploited. There wouldn't be much point in cloning humanity if the clones weren't really people.
  • Deus ex Machina: Invoked. Using it to solve everything has even become a bad joke in the wiki's discussion pages, and in-universe there's even a note from an official with a warning not to get careless just because this thing is lying around to fall back on. Not that they can fall back on it; it's been broken for years.
  • The End of the World as We Know It: It is a countermeasure for global catastrophes.
  • Expendable Clone: At the same time, however, dead clones can be replaced as necessary until the world is rebuilt. At that time, the clones' memories are altered and cloning ceases.
  • External Retcon: The SCP is inspired by Document Recovered From The Marianas Trench, written years earlier by a different author.
  • Fantastic Time Management: Can do this within its boundaries.
    "Researcher Note: Temporal sinks can be useful for a lot of things. Containing SCP objects for which you need one second to last 300,000 years is a good example."
  • The Internet: They've backed up the whole thing on its computers.
  • Opening a Can of Clones: It repopulates the world with clones.
  • Reset Button: Deconstructed. It resets civilization as it was before a given apocalypse, but it is a very long and involved process, taking as long as fifty years to pull off. It's also had to be used more than once. It also doesn't so much "reset" as it does reconstruct. Those who died remain very dead, just replaced with perfect clones of themselves, and mostly only high-ranking Foundation personnel and major political or cultural leaders are recreated. The rest of the population are original people with fake memories to "fit the time period."
  • Time Abyss: No one at the Foundation knows how long this machine has existed. Even the corpse with security credentials matching Dr. Alto Clef, that is dated 450-700 years had a note by it stating that he still didn't know.
  • Volcano Lair: Downplayed. It uses Yellowstone for geothermal power and raw materials.

SCP-2001 - A Space Oddity

SCP-2001 is a series of neural oscillations that occur during three of the four stages of human sleep. During one of these three stages, the amygdala spontaneously enters a state of heightened activity for a period of 10-15 minutes. At the conclusion of 2001's active state, the subject is conditioned to one of three responses (designated Alpha, Beta, and Gamma) depending on the sleep stage in which 2001 occurs. Gamma-type individuals are almost indistinguishable from ordinary people save for a disparaging attitude towards the topic of space travel. Beta-type individuals are characterized by a distinct opposition to space exploration, denouncing the importance and safety of space travel in conversations, citing it as "extremely dangerous" or "fruitless". Alpha-type individuals actively attempt to stop or sabotage all forms of space travel.
  • Eldritch Abomination: It causes people to believe that outer space is filled with eldritch abominations and that space itself is trying to warn us not to go into space because of the horrors out there.
  • Meaningful Name: Its number is 2001, as in 2001: A Space Odyssey.
  • Shout-Out: To David Bowie. Ground Control would have loved Major Tom to be infected with this.
  • The Sociopath: The Alpha Prime strain is the only strain of 2001 that can turn victims into these. One man infected with it blew up a spacecraft, killing all five astronauts onboard, shortly after he had overseen its liftoff.
  • Trigger Phrase: Those infected with the Alpha strain have the capability to turn other people into carriers of "Alpha Prime" if they respond to certain phrases spoken by the Alpha carrier.

SCP-2002 - A Dead Future

SCP-2002 was a spacefaring vessel on a direct collision course with Earth, before purportedly being shot down by the Global Occult Coalition and landing outside of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The ship was actually a temporally-displaced Foundation spaceship from a future containing the only remaining embryos and newborns from a dying human race.
  • Bad Future: SCP-2002 comes from one where a containment breach from an unspecified SCP caused a Sterility Plague that followed humans wherever they went.
  • Colony Drop: SCP-2002's former Keter classification was due to it heading for the Earth at hypersonic speeds with no signs of slowing down.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The GOC's neutralization of SCP-2002 to prevent a possible world-ending Colony Drop destroyed the last remnants of the Foundation from a Bad Future and all the remaining newborns immune to the Sterility Plague that ruined their Earth.

SCP-2003 - Preferred Option

SCP-2003 is an apparatus allowing a limited degree of travel to and from periods of time. Upon activation, 2003 is capable of transporting a living entity contained within its central chamber to a point coterminous with its present location in physical space but located in a future time period. The amount of time into the future traveled by the subject is related to the amount of energy input into the device. Subjects using 2003 will exist in the time period to which they have traveled for a duration ranging between 15 and 38 weeks before spontaneously returning to their time period of origination.
  • A Lighter Shade of Black: Scenario XN is bad, but it's the only one seen so far that guarantees humanity at least lasts past the 21st century.
  • And I Must Scream: In Scenario XU, despite being frozen at -270 degrees Celsius, where biological functions are impossible and molecular movement is close to zero, all of humanity somehow remains conscious and unable to die.
  • Bad Future: Several of them.
    • Scenario XB: A gamma-ray burst hits earth on April 23, 2017, and destroys all known life.
    • Scenario XU: The sun, against all known laws of science, spontaneously becomes a black hole on February 17, 2026, resulting in the solar system freezing over. All humans, however, continue to remain conscious and are unable to die despite their complete inability to move.
    • Scenario XE: A civilization-destroying nuclear war takes place between Israel and Greater Indonesia in 2058.
    • Scenario XT: A totalitarian regime manages to take over the world and systematically eliminates various "subversive organizations", with particular focus on the Foundation and its survivors.
    • Scenario XX: 85% of humanity becomes infected by an anomalous protist that causes them to develop a fixation on caring for Brazilian Wandering Spiders. As global resources are devoted to this goal, and uninfected humans are detained and used as a food source for the spiders, society collapses and crop failure leads to a famine that kills 6 billion.
    • Scenario XO: Anomalies begin appearing at an exponential rate starting in 2037, growing beyond the ability of the Foundation to contain them by 2039. Riots, mass suicides, religious extremism, and wars escalate to the point that all but a small band of survivors in Site-104 are wiped out by 2048.
  • Body Horror: The only way for anyone to actually use SCP-2003 is to have their central nervous system removed and placed into a quadrupedal robot body. Understandably, the training process involves a lot of mental training and meds, and recruits are either retired or terminally ill Foundation agents and get a significant pay boost and benefits for their families for their trouble.
  • Broken Masquerade: Some scenarios lead to the Foundation's secrecy being breached. Scenario XE has it always happen exactly 86 days before the war.
  • Colony Drop: Scenario XN, where a 22km-wide asteroid hits earth in January 2349, killing most of humanity and rendering the planet uninhabitable. Out of all the bad futures they've seen, the Foundation has decided this one is the most favorable option.
  • Crazy Cat Lady: Scenario XX has most of humanity become this, but for the Brazilian Wandering Spider, one of the few spider species that can actually cause harm to people.
  • Cyborg: Preparation for traveling through SCP-2003 involves having your brain, spinal cord, and nervous system removed and placed inside of a robot.
  • Deal with the Devil: Scenario XW, where a group of beings appear in most cities on August 13, 2019 and offer humanity scientific advancement in medicine, agriculture, and energy production. In 2022, several people decide to join an experimental program to fuse their minds together into a single consciousness. By the end of 2024, the beings have finally fused 134,000 minds together into a single person, but they keep this person locked up, and subsequently kill all other humans.
  • Failed Future Forecast: In-universe. Several times, the predictions don't come true. This happened once with a scenario involving a 1999 earthquake, and it's implied that this will happen, or has happened, with Scenarios XB, XS, XW, and XU. (The SCP-2003 entry was written in 2013.)
  • Hope Spot:
    • Scenario XH seems like the best option at first. After a pandemic that kills 1.4 billion, world governments come together to begin instating reforms to fix the world. Many longstanding ethnic conflicts are resolved, poverty is virtually eradicated from sub-Saharan Africa and India, and work is completed on large-scale projects to mitigate sea level rise. Then, on July 29, 2059, all human and animal life on earth spontaneously vanishes without a trace.
    • Scenario XZ has all of humanity abandoning Earth and living on an Earth-like planet far, far away. The human civilization observed there is found to be highly advanced and very stable, lacking any common factors that negatively affect societies. This scenario even has the Foundation considering to change their preferred option of Scenario XN. Kalinin's SCP-001 proposal reveals that humanity on that planet is actually indoctrinated and enslaved by humanoid aliens. Any observations made by the Foundation are of a facade made by the aliens.
  • Noodle Incident:
    • Scenario XS, where the location and all knowledge of SCP-2003 is somehow lost in 2019.
    • In Scenario XR, the population of Homo Ignotus explodes from around 500 to 8 million overnight in 2015, and a conflict breaks out between the Foundation and the Homo Ignotus, leading to the eradication of the former within three days. Whatever happens to humanity afterward is redacted and expunged.
  • Our Time Travel Is Different: SCP-2003 can send people into the future, with the exchange rate around 3500 kWh to a subject forward seven months. Once in the future, the subject will remain there for 15-38 weeks before they spontaneously return not far from their place and time of departure. The downsides are that it's not completely accurate and it suffers from reverse Terminator syndrome, where organic tissue (aside from the nervous system) is severely damaged by the process.
  • Sealed Good in a Can: SCP-2003 was built by the Foundation to study future events and set things on the right path.
  • Temporal Mutability: A solid Type 5. One principle behind SCP-2003 that's been discovered is that certain individuals have a disproportionate effect on causality, even for events they have no apparent connection to. For example, Scenario XE is triggered by the birth of a boy in Turkmenistan and New Zealand's election of a new Prime Minister both taking place on the same day in 2049. All attempts to intervene with either of the two only lead to the date of the nuclear war happening sooner.
    • There was also Scenario XT, where a single totalitarian regime had assumed control over the planet and targeted various "subversive" organizations for elimination, particularly focusing on Foundation personnel. This was averted by sending three South Korean astronauts up to the International Space Station, which somehow resulted in Scenario XU instead.
  • Temporal Paradox: In Scenario XJ, a copy of Dr. Masako Koizumi, one of the researchers behind an unknown SCP, appears in Site-47 on April 1, 2011, and demands that his scheduled euthanization be stopped immediately. However, the SCP he's being euthanized for hasn't been activated yet and, because of Foundation fail-safe protocols, his request is denied. This leads to a recursive paradox and the eventual collapse of spacetime itself. The entire scenario was averted by sending the copy forward in time in a robot body, the consequences of which presumably don't manifest before Scenario XN.
  • The World Is Always Doomed: Not uncommon among SCPs, but usage of SCP-2003 confirms that most future timelines result in the downfall of human civilization or the Earth becoming uninhabitable. The most optimistic is that the end comes in three centuries, rather than a few decades.

SCP-2004- Personal Data Assistants of the Gods

SCP-2004 is a set of five hand-held personal data assistants of unknown, possibly extraterrestrial origin, all but one having become inert. The devices are composed of an unknown material whose molecular structure matches nothing periodic table of elements, flexible like plastic, yet resistant to extreme temperatures and physical damage. The remaining functional 2004 instance activates when it makes physical contact with an active bioelectric field, projecting a three-dimensional holographic document. The image projected from 2004 is black text on a white background, written in a pictographic language based on stylized astronomical constellations and molecular chemical bonds, using patterns of dots, circles and slashes to create increasingly complex sentence structures. Reading or hearing L-2004 produces a memetic anomaly, making translation efforts extremely hazardous. Affected subjects, SCP-2004-1, demonstrate increased anxiety and irritability, obsessive behavior, paranoia, and hostility. They begin to lose their sense of self, or become convinced they are someone else, insisting that their previous life is a carefully designed falsehood. After a period of six to eight days, the language centers of 2004-1's brain are re-programmed, with symptoms similar to agnosia and aphasia, losing the ability to comprehend or understand any language, written or verbal, save for the language depicted on 2004.

SCP-2005 - Predicting the Past

SCP-2005 is a series of probes of extraterrestrial origin, designated SCP-2005-A to -E. The devices differ radically in external design, but their internal systems, transmission parameters, and other features indicate a common origin. 2005 record audiovisual data and transmit it via radio to what is believed to be their point of departure, which researchers hypothesize to be on or orbiting a planet or other body in the Teegarden Star system, located approximately 12.5 light-years from the Earth's sun.

SCP-2006 - Too Spooky

See Characters.SCP Foundation SC Ps.

SCP-2007 - Science Fiction

SCP-2007 is a sapient memetic phenomenon which spreads by human social interaction. The degree of interaction required for transmission is variable, but is estimated to be approximately three hours of sustained contact. In cases where 2007 becomes active, it assumes control of its host body. It is unknown whether the original host's consciousness is repressed or destroyed completely in this process. 2007 exhibits qualities of gestalt intelligence, being able to assimilate memories, experiences, and knowledge from both active and dormant instances by this vector.
  • Demonic Possession: When it becomes active, the phenomenon takes control of its host. It's unknown if the host's mind survives or is destroyed in the process.
  • Driven to Suicide: Affected people will commit suicide to avoid capture.
  • Hive Mind: The phenomenon is able to assimilate memories, experiences, and knowledge from both active and dormant instances.
  • Laser-Guided Amnesia: Amnestics are very effective in suppressing active instances without killing the hosts, so they are frequently used.
  • Necessarily Evil: It sees its killing of the MTFs sent to apprehend it as being this, saying that they were "in the way".
  • The Virus: The phenomenon spreads through human social interaction.

SCP-2008 - …but blood must sometimes be spilled…

SCP-2008 is a non-corporeal entity imperceptible to surveillance equipment, which has caused the deaths of 47 individuals in Tennessee. Victims of 2008 universally expire from severe ballistic trauma via gunshot wounds, but no bullets have been recovered. It is possible that a larger number of individuals are victims of this effect than are currently documented, as various socioeconomic factors likely preclude deeper investigation by law enforcement. It appears to have connections to Andrew Jackson's wife, which its victims have been found to have insulted.
  • Berserk Button: Insulting President Andrew Jackson's wife in Tennessee causes a ghost to murder the victim with a firearm. The exact identity of the ghost — Jackson, his wife, or one of their undying crazy fans — is unclear but it is likely to be Jackson himself given the rumored reason for his duel with Charles Dickinson.

SCP-2009 - Thomas Hoang

SCP-2009 is a man capable of asexual reproduction by means of spores capable of infecting and transforming human beings. His duplicates, SCP-2009-01, are physically and genetically identical and display no unusual physiology, and they each identify as "Thomas Hoang". If exposed to temperatures of more than 20° C and humidity in excess of 40% for a period in excess of five days, a duplicate will seek out a darkened area. The body will begin to distend and split into thin chitin-based "hairs” to anchor itself to nearby walls and objects and ceasing sapient activity, converting all of its energy to the production of SCP-2009-02, a microscopic spore capable of infecting human beings. Within 3-4 days of exposure, individuals infected with 2009-02 will begin to experience symptoms of nausea, lethargy, and photosensitivity. Within 8-9 days of exposure, the physiology of the subject will exactly match that of a duplicate.
  • Clone by Conversion: It is implied that SCP-2009-01 is this, with the original Thomas Hoang serving as the basis.
  • Kill It with Fire: Even tiny amounts of SCP-2009-02 spores are highly contagious. In order to ensure its destruction, SCP-2009 must be disposed of by incineration.
  • The Virus: Anyone who breathes in SCP-2009-02 spores created by SCP-2009-01 will become an example of SCP-2009-01 in 8-9 days.
  • Weakened by the Light: SCP-2009-01 suffer from photosensitivity and experience discomfort when exposed to normal levels of light.

SCP-2010 - No EyePhone

SCP-2010 is a cell phone made by the Apple Company with the word "PROTOTYPE" scratched onto the glass. The phone lacks logos and a battery, therefore not working properly. When a subject touches 2010, the cover of "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" by Walk Off the Earth starts to play through unknown means. The subject drops 2010 once the song starts to play and falls over near the speakers, not moving from that spot unless the song has ended. After the song ends, the subject can no longer grasp the concept of eyes.
  • Constrained Writing: The document doesn't contain the letter "I" anywhere. A note discovered with the phone brings this to notice with the account of a "Prefect Crowley" expressing his hatred and wanted eradication of the Latin letter.
  • Fun with Homophones
  • Meaningful Name:
    • Given that the device's name is "EyePhone" and it was manufactured by Apple, it's an obvious reference to the iPhone.
    • 2010 was the year technical support for the original iPhone ended, the discontinuation of the iPhone 3G, and the release of the iPhone 4.
  • Mind Rape: After the phone's song, "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" by Walk Off the Earth, finishes playing, the affected person can no longer grasp the concept of eyes.

SCP-2011 - Recomposing Tribesmen

SCP-2011 is a remote tribal village located in the jungle of the Yucatán Peninsula. The residents of 2011, known as SCP-2011-1, are born in various states of advanced decay, ranging from entirely skeletal to having small portions of muscle tissue and skin; during their lifespan, each individual physically recomposes into more complete forms of the human anatomy. At death, their bodies will be completely intact and do not decompose. 2011-1 function as if they possess a full body structure. Upon expiration, 2011-1 will transport cadavers to the top of a religious temple located at the center of the village. After conducting a ceremony, the corpse will remain in the temple for precisely 18 hours before it dematerializes in one second. This ritual is believed to be a method of disposal to prevent a buildup of cadavers within 2011. SCP-2011-2 is a villager that takes the role of the local shaman. 2011-1 claim that he possesses the unique ability to communicate with their god, which is apparently used during funeral ceremonies and various random instances.
  • Body Horror: Members of the tribe are born in stages of advanced decay.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: Chalchiuhtotolin, who grew jealous of the tribesmen's reverence for Tlaloc.
  • Jerkass Gods: Chalchiuhtotolin cursed Tlaloc's worshipers with their current state out of envy of Tlaloc.
  • Merlin Sickness: The tribe members are born in stages of advanced decay, and by the time they die they are fully recomposed.

SCP-2012 - Perdidit in Tempore

SCP-2012 are the members of Legio IX Hispana, an Imperial Roman legion that disappeared from the historical record in the late 100's CE for reasons still under debate. In the beginning of March, 2012 can manifest in three different regions of the world: Loch Lomond, Scotland; Khosrov State Reserve, Armenia; and the Negev Desert, Israel. The members of the legion will express considerable disorientation as to their location, but will reiterate their insistence that they are still in the late 100's CE. Approximately one week following the beginning of a manifestation, the legion will abruptly disappear, taking any and all equipment with them. 2012 can disappear at any time, and the members of it do not seem to be aware of this impending disappearance, or the general circumstances of their situation. Regardless of how many members are lost during containment, 2012 will reappear every single year.

SCP-2013 - The Reptilian Meme

SCP-2013 is a memetic agent which can be spread via visual, auditory, or tactile vectors, which causes affected individuals to develop a belief in SCP-2013-A, an alleged extraterrestrial race that has infiltrated various world governments. Affected individuals cannot be cured, but they can be treated through regular amnestic consumption or administration.
  • Gone Horribly Wrong: The Foundation used SCP-2013-A as their moles in various governments around the world until they were considered obsolete and tried to exterminate them. It turns out they missed a few and they now do control the world independent of the Foundation.
  • Reptilian Conspiracy: The meme forms the basis of one. There actually was one that was instigated by the Foundation to solve their funding problems in their earlier days by installing actual lizard people in governments.
  • The Reveal: There isn't a meme nor are SCP-2013-A aliens. They were a formerly extinct reptilian apelike species that were genetically modified for the Foundation's purposes until the Foundation lost control of them. They now hold top positions in every government and organization around the world, including the Foundation's O5 Council.

SCP-2014 - Zsar Magoth

SCP-2014 is an adult male leopard gecko measuring 8.5 cm in length, physically indistinguishable from other members of its species. 2014 is possessed by Zsar Magoth, an extradimensional entity suspected to have been responsible for creating multiple cults and causing several crimes. Under Zsar’s possession, 2014 is sapient and possesses telekinetic abilities, which it can use to manipulate any object within 24 meters of itself. Zsar itself is actually a rather affable and complacent entity. It also happens to show a strong interest in skateboarding, since it became trapped in his gecko body after being summoned by a skater who wanted to cheat in a skateboarding contest.

SCP-2015 - Anart Mechas

SCP-2015 are 9 anomalous pieces of art, referred to as SCP-2015-1 through -9. Each piece becomes autonomous when a certain phrase, specific to each instance, is spoken in its proximity. Speaking the phrase again will cause the instance to resume immobility. Each animated instance can be controlled via thought with a small handheld object that is specific to that instance and its theme. It is unknown how instances of 2015 do not collapse under their own weight.

SCP-2016 - Wizard's Doll

SCP-2016 is a knit doll resembling an old man with a long white beard and dark green robes, measuring approximately 32 cm in height. When humans enter REM sleep within 3 m of the doll, they will experience vivid dreams wherein they usually encounter SCP-2016-2, which appears as an elderly man with the same appearance as 2016. The man is always capable of understanding the language spoken by the dreamer, though it is not capable of verbal communication. These dreams always end with 2016-2 handing the subject a piece of chalk and creating a wall, motioning for the subject to draw a rectangle with a circle inside on the surface. If a subject attempts to draw the shape on the surface of a wall within 7 days of the dream, the drawing will transform into a door with a round handle which leads to an open meadow with a stone tower located a varying distance away. A paper attached to the tower's door reads "to my new apprentice" in the subject's native language. All subjects who have used these facilities have died in their sleep within 5 years. Cause of death is unknown, but all subjects have been reported to release a gaseous mass from their mouths which disappears seconds later.

SCP-2017 - The Girl with the Made-Up Disease

SCP-2017 is a 7-year-old African-American girl who displays symptoms of anemia such as gray pallor and cold extremities, and is unusually shy and withdrawn. Her anomalous effect manifests when a human subject makes unprotected skin contact with her. The subject experiences a condition tentatively called SCP-2017-Triggered Derealization Disorder. The affected subject recognizes itself as an entity, but perceives the external world as foreign and nonsensical. The disorder will cause subjects to have difficulty understanding or internalizing even the most basic facets of human behavior. Subjects in the late stages will eventually perceive the entire physical world as lacking order or sense.

SCP-2018 - Museum of You

SCP-2018 is a space-time anomaly located on a rectangular space on a wall inside an abandoned warehouse. It appears for 1 hour, 7 minutes and 14 seconds every 72 hours. On the other side is an alternate version of the Australian Museum, hereafter designated SCP-2018-1, located in the center of a floating, circular land mass approximately 5 km in diameter. The infrastructure and general architecture of 2018-1 contain several empty pedestals of varying sizes throughout all floors. Approximately 12 minutes after a living human subject enters, objects and living beings will appear atop the empty pedestals, along with a metal plate containing text. Said objects and living beings have been determined to be related to significant memories of the subject. The first floors usually create objects and living beings based on memories of childhood and adolescence, while the upper floors usually create objects and living beings based on recent memories.
  • Emotion Eater: SCP-2018 used to absorb the emotions that the museum visitors felt as they looked at the exhibits. It was inspired to create its own virtual museum to create exhibits relevant to the lives and memories of its visitors.
  • Genius Loci: SCP-2018 says that it was once the protective spirit of the Australian Museum. It can manifest itself as an old man and talk to people who enter it.
  • Telepathy: The spirit of the Museum can read the thoughts and memories of anyone who enters it.

SCP-2019 - Gelatinous Brain Cube

SCP-2019 is a sapient cubical organism composed of a green gelatinous substance, held in place by a thick transparent membrane highly resistant to most forms of damage, and regenerable in a matter of seconds. On the lateral faces of 2019 are 37 eyes which the creature is capable of moving around its membrane, allowing it to see in all directions simultaneously. The interior of 2019 grows brains at a rate that depends on available nutrients, currently growing one brain every two months. When awake, it displays the ability to cause physical objects and living beings to manifest. It is only capable of creating objects and living beings within its line of sight, all of which disappear once 2019 can no longer perceive them. Interviews conducted with the creature indicate that it was originally banished from its homeworld for the way it looked compared to others, as well as other statements with no-currently determined meaning.

SCP-2020 - Cliche, Right?

SCP-2020 is a sapient humanoid entity which possesses unusually long and thin limbs, as well as facial features commonly associated with "gray aliens" and bright green coloration. 2020 claims to originate from a technologically advanced extraterrestrial civilization, but will make wildly different claims regarding the nature and location of this civilization when questioned. Its behavior suggests that it shares many psychological similarities with humans, such as the ability to learn, a desire for interaction, and partial understanding of social norms. 2020 will frequently attempt to engage personnel in conversations regarding its desire to write science fiction, and numerous ideas it has for such stories. It has thus far failed to produce any actual writing, citing an inability to choose a concept.
  • Affectionate Parody: SCP-2020 is frequently pitching science fiction ideas, all of whom were running with it in the SCP-2000 contest (the winner is the very first, while the last is a Lampshade Hanging Self-Parody). They're all ideas for successful articles but he can't actually do anything with them because he's stuck in a creative rut and is a little lost on how writing really works.
  • Aliens Speaking English: It has a fluent grasp of English.
  • Bizarre Alien Biology: Its body is made of a form of organic rubber and its diet consists of shredded paper and water.
  • Character Catchphrase: "Cliche, right?"
  • The Greys: It looks just like one.
  • If Only You Knew: All the sci-fi ideas it comes up with are actually real SCPs, and at one point in an interview, it suggests "What if there was an alien who kept coming up with ideas for stories and it was talking to people in a facility where all of it was real?"
  • Motor Mouth: It's constantly brimming with ideas and cannot shut up about them.
  • Most Writers Are Writers: In a way. The author specifically wanted to poke fun at a certain unproductive state of mind in sci-fi writing, being a sci-fi writer himself who has been there before.
  • Multiple-Choice Past: SCP-2020 claims to be from an advanced alien society, but makes wildly varied claims about where and how advanced this civilization actually is.
  • Special Person, Normal Name:
    It is fluent in English and responds to the names "Artie", "Bobby", and "Izzy".
  • Take That!: A minor one, according to the author, aimed at the process of trying to write in terms of "take a cliché and add a twist", and generally attempting direct trope usage rather than writing organically; the real reason SCP-2020 can't get past the brainstorming stage isn't because of too many ideas, but because that isn't how writing works.
  • Verbal Tic: Repeatedly says "guys" during its interview.

SCP-2021 - Single-sided Paper

SCP-2021 are sheets of U.S. letter-size copy paper found in a cardboard box labeled "single-sided paper, please hold by the sides, patent pending place for my stuff". The obverse sides of the sheets are normal white copy paper, but the reverse sides are apparently "invisible" or depict otherwise empty space. Stacking the sheets one atop the other has no anomalous effect, and use of opaque storage containers has been successful in containing the sheets.

SCP-2022 - Sunlight Pills™

SCP-2022 are pharmaceutical capsules labeled that compress and constantly emit electromagnetic energies similar to sunlight, giving them a glowing appearance. Ingested orally, one capsule steadily supplies the body with healthy, daily amounts of Vitamin D for up to an average of 16 months. Subjects taking the supplement have reported feeling a gentle tropical breeze, the scents of sea water, the faint sounds of crashing waves, and a pleasant warmth within their bodies that fluctuate in intensity coinciding with the time of day. Increased bone health, skin complexion, and hair growth, along with a significant decrease in infectious and autoimmune diseases. Overuse of the capsules increase these sensations, with subjects experiencing increased burning sensations in the organs, development of photosensitivity, sunburn, inflammation, bioluminescence, Hypervitaminosis D, vomiting, nausea, dehydration, decreased appetite, insomnia, constipation, fatigue, irritability, myasthenia, kidney stones, internal burns, various forms of cancer, and metastatic calcification.
  • Body Horror: The reported effects of overdosing include various forms of cancer, the formation of large kidney stones and 1st to 3rd degree internal and external burns.
  • Exactly What It Says on the Tin: They're pills that somehow contain sunlight.
  • Invisibility: One of the effects of overdosing is "invisibility from the visible spectrum".
  • Intangibility: For people with albinism, one of the effects of overdosing is "intangibility through translucent objects".

SCP-2023 - Aidoneus' Apology

SCP-2023 is a localized phenomenon that occurs approximately 7 km from the city of Enna, Italy, originating from a cave near the bank of a small lake that is only visible when approached on foot. 2023 consists of the spontaneous appearance of various wildflowers at the mouth of this cave, spreading outwards a distance of 2 meters and apparently growing directly out of the surrounding stone. The most numerous species include white asphodel, poet’s narcissus, angel’s tears, and wild daffodils. Close inspection reveals that the flowers are composed of thinly-cut and delicately-arranged precious gemstones, disintegrate if touched, and disappear after a period of 2 to 3 days.

SCP-2024 - Mixing Rod

SCP-2024 is a lacquer-finished wooden cane with a red shaft and a handle painted with swirling patterns in various shades of yellow, red, and green. A circular paperboard tag, designated SCP-2024-1, is tied to the shaft by a strand of cotton string. 2024-1 features a clown's face printed in magenta ink on one side, and the letters "HF" printed in blue ink in an elaborate script on the other side. When a human subject holds the cane by its handle while 2024-1 is attached, it becomes active as a series of dots appears along the shaft. In its active state, the shaft of 2024 can be inserted into or passed through any solid object as though it has become intangible, as well as alter the molecular structure of said objects. While 2024 is inserted into an object, the matter of the object will trail along behind the motion of the cane. 2024 makes the object's structure significantly more elastic; the matter stretches and bends to follow 2024's movements as though it were a viscous liquid being stirred.

SCP-2025 - Cone of Humanity

SCP-2025 is a conical region centered in the Southern Pacific ocean. This region (SCP-2025-A) extends from a point in the Mohorovičić discontinuity of the Earth's mantle to just beyond the upper Ionosphere. The anomalous nature of 2025 comes from the fact that any animate object within 2025-A contains the metaphysical property of "humanity”, with subjects being compelled to see said objects as “human”. Subjects within 2025-A are incapable of distinguishing 2025 from the normal concept of humanity, and external subjects attempting to simultaneously think about both concepts only experience significant cognitive dissonance.
  • Funny Animal: A variant: a D-Class man thinks that the lab rats within its radius are fellow criminals. When the rats are adorned with the appropriate paraphernalia, he thinks that they're actual members of a rival gang and starts assaulting them.
  • Androids Are People, Too: Exaggerated: SCP-2025's effect prevents anyone from drilling to its core, due to perceived unfair treatment of the drill itself. Also, analog wristwatches (but not digital ones) become "wristmen" in its radius, and the ship FSS Mark Twain becomes Ms. Twain.
  • Bad People Abuse Animals: Or serial killers who are dog lovers will try to kill dogs when in SCP-2025.

SCP-2026 - Civilization Mouthwash

SCP-2026 is a collection of mouthwashes, labeled on their packaging as "Wilson & Wong’s Fun Size History". Fifteen flavors of 2026 have been identified by the Foundation; ten of which have names corresponding to past human civilizations, while five flavors have names referring to fictional literary civilizations. 2026’s anomalous properties will manifest 2 hours after it is utilized by a human. A single tooth will fall from the subject’s mouth, and over the next seven days, the fallen tooth will suffer a transformation. Sections of the tooth will gradually be converted into a varying number of small, sapient humanoids made from its pulp and enamel. These figures (hereafter designated SCP-2026-1) will begin to build complex architectural structures out of the affected tooth. 2026-1 are capable of speaking, writing, and reading in the language corresponding to the flavor's civilization. They will continue to build more structures out of any nearby solid materials, including plastic, concrete, steel, glass, paper, and electronic devices. Instances will form complex societies and take up roles common to the corresponding civilization, such as merchants, workers, nobility, clergy, scientists, and politicians. Any interaction with 2026-1 by humans seems generally to be perceived as a form of divine intervention by a god or a higher being.

SCP-2027 - Space-Borne Organism

SCP-2027 is a spacebound organism of extraterrestrial origin, currently estimated to measure between 200-350 km in length and 100 km across. 2027 maneuvers using several jets of gas (appearing to be a mix of hydrogen, methane, and argon) on each end of the body. The creature is composed of several hundred zooids which also make up a hard exoskeleton, similar to the Portuguese man o' war. The creature feeds on strong concentrations of gamma radiation, and it appears to be traveling directly parallel to the Solar System's orbit around the galactic center.

SCP-2028 - Nightmare Snow Globes

SCP-2028 is a collection of 258 empty snow globes manufactured by the Oneroni Collective. The anomalous properties of 2028 manifest when one or more human subjects enter REM sleep within 4 meters of an instance, whereupon the subject will invariably experience a vivid nightmare. Upon waking, the subject will report an increase in happiness and willingness to participate in social situations over the next three days. The snow globe used will be filled with images from the subject's nightmare. If picked up and shaken for more than 3 seconds, the subject will experience random hallucinations related to the nightmare. Should the phrase "please reset" be spoken within 4 meters of a used snowglobe, the images will disappear and the object will manifest its anomalous properties again if used. Using 2028 more than three times every 30 days causes cracks to appear on the glass. If broken through impact, a local restructuring of reality of varying size surrounding the snow globe, strongly resembling the events and physical laws found inside the nightmare "stored" inside the broken globe.

SCP-2029 - An Egg in a Jar

SCP-2029 is a chicken egg of indeterminate age occupying a 1 quart molded glass canning jar. 2029 can be observed to continually produce SCP-2029-2, an anomalous form of hydrogen sulfide, through an unknown process. Despite an immediate lack of correlation between 2029's mass and the manifestation of 2029-2, it has been observed that the egg’s total mass is gradually diminishing due to continuing decomposition. 2029-2 displays uncharacteristic toxicity and intensive reactivity and corrosivity against even strongly aromatic compounds and nonreactive metallic elements. 2029-2 displays catalytic properties during this process, converting sulfur and hydrogen liberated from water molecules into additional 2029-2 samples.

SCP-2030 - LA U GH IS F UN

One of the more outlandish and bizarre anomalies contained, SCP-2030, known as "LAUGH IS FUN", is an anomalous television series which changes mediums depending on the most popular format currently in use. The show is a hidden-camera comedy series showcasing the candid responses of various people to bizarre, disturbing, and often anomalous situations. Episodes usually run between 10 and 12 minutes, and feature introductory and closing segments that bookend the hidden camera footage. The host of the show is presumably a sadistic MC wearing a royal blue three-piece suit who identifies as "Laughy McLaugherson" (SCP-2030-1), who provides introductory and closing commentary as well as appearing to the victims of the “pranks” to reveal that they are being filmed for a television series. Laughy is invariably seen from the neck down due to the way in which scenes are filmed, making identification impossible. Individuals appearing on the show often react to the events with panic or distress, but appear immediately calmed upon Laughy’s appearance, even when the individual in question has sustained significant bodily harm. The participants of the show are all people who have died or gone missing.
  • Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick: Episode themes range from normal topics like the beach and printers to strange topics like Margaret Thatcher, recursion, or arson.
  • Candid Camera Prank: Appears to be some kind of prank show, as each clip involves hidden cameras and SCP-2030-1 showing everyone involved that the disturbing stuff was all scripted.
  • Canon Welding: SCP-2030-1's speech from the "Printers" episode implies that SCP-2535 (an abandoned Hewlett-Packard office where five employees were fused into the printers) was the aftermath of one of the show's pranks.
  • Death by Childbirth: One contestant was reported to have died due to complications with childbirth. Given she gives birth to four singing tentacle creatures with celebrities' heads in her segment, it's not hard to guess how.
  • The Faceless: The show's host (designated SCP-2030-1) is filmed in such a way that his face cannot be seen by the audience.note 
  • The "Fun" in "Funeral": One short story shows a segment being "taped" at a funeral where everyone's spleens simultaneously ruptured.
  • I Have Many Names: Known under similar names like Laugh is Life or Laugh is Laugh, though Laugh is Fun is the most common.
  • Immoral Reality Show: The fact that every contestant is someone reported to have either died or gone missing during that season's year should probably tell you something.
  • "Just Joking" Justification: Exaggerated. Everyone goes from freaking out to Dissonant Serenity as soon as SCP-2030-1 appears and tells them they're on a prank show.
  • Long-Runners: The show's been running since 1976, according to one streaming site it has appeared on.
  • The Mockbuster: Rental copies of the show often have modified covers for other comedy series.
  • Madness Mantra: A transcript ends with SCP-2030-1 saying "Laugh!" and "Laugh with us!" over and over again, and then saying "Laugh and let us in!" before the footage abruptly cuts off.
  • Never Found the Body: All victims on the show are reported to either be dead or missing in real life, with their bodies unrecovered. The Foundation theorizes that they're abducted by the film crew after their segment is recorded.
  • Sadist Show: The show revolves around very disturbing things happening to its participants, such as squirrels bursting from a man's skin and pigeons forcing themselves down an elderly woman's throat until her stomach ruptures.
  • Word-Salad Horror: There is definitely something off with the Netflix description:
    "Have you ever like laugh you come laugh and have all the fun and laugh! Starring all your favorite laugh so ever and always make go to your life!"

SCP-2031 - Ant farm

SCP-2031 are anomalous colonies of army ants which number up to 2 million individuals. Unlike normal swarms, 2031 will send columns of soldiers to climb the prey, massing along the spine and lower extremities, at which point the soldiers will simultaneously bite through the skin and attack the spinal cord. Once the prey is immobilized, the remaining colony will mass around it, and the soldiers will burrow small openings into the extremities. The remaining colony will follow the soldiers and burrow inside the animal’s body. Unlike other carrion-eating insects, 2031 will not immediately attack the soft tissues, seeming to prefer the host to live as long as possible. When 2031 initiates a nomadic phase, it will move the entire carcass in apparent imitation of the animal’s normal behavior. This mimicry will continue as long as the carcass’s hide and skeletal system maintains structural integrity.

SCP-2032 - Father Time

SCP-2032 is an elderly man of Middle Eastern origin, though his true age and ancestry are not currently known. Although 2032 has an apparent inhuman longevity, his physical and mental health are estimated to have begun deteriorating with age several decades prior to coming into Foundation Custody. The main anomalous quality of 2032 is that his failing memory directly affects the historical recollections of the general public. As his memory begins to fade, numerous branching opinions on historical events, consisting of conflicted accounts or other inaccurate information, appear. There is a theorized safe zone from the reality altering effects of 2032's memory for any documents or persons within three meters of him. Additionally, as time passes and the event becomes less current, it is considered to have reached 2032's long-term memory in which the public may not be informed but scholars and historians are.

SCP-2033 - Coincidental Tree

SCP-2033 is a sugar maple tree measuring approximately 5m tall, with its trunk measuring approximately 0.2m in diameter. On 2033's trunk are several pieces of used chewing gum in various stages of decomposition. At an average rate of three times per day, a piece will separate from the tree and inflate into a bubble of chicle which displays natural buoyancy in air, henceforth SCP-2033-1. Upon reaching approximately 50cm, the bubble will burst, producing a characteristic sound through unknown means. The sounds are invariably five to ten second clips of a woman singing various arrangements from musical plays produced in the United States.

SCP-2034 - Tussad's Delusion

SCP-2034 is a phenomenon in which a number of individuals (SCP-2034-A) are perceived as inanimate puppets in various forms of digital media, such as photographs and video recordings. 2034-A are often recognized as individuals with noted celebrity and/or political status. It is unknown whether 2034's effects are sensory or memetic as instances are not identified by sight alone.

SCP-2035 - Instant Animals

SCP-2035 are 144 miniature desiccated fetal animals enclosed in paper envelopes. Instances of 2035 initially show no signs of life and are fragile, necessitating specific levels of heat and humidity to grow. Physical contact causes the instances to absorb surface moisture, resulting in extreme cases in significant drying of the skin around the point of contact. Following a period of 2-3 weeks, 2035 will begin to show signs of life and experience rapid growth, reaching full sexual maturity within 4-6 weeks. At this stage, the creatures tend to be physically unremarkable from non-anomalous members of their respective species, while displaying a significant number of mental deviations and/or psychological abnormalities, often resulting in extremely volatile and unpredictable behavior.

SCP-2036 - Fire Rabbits

SCP-2036 is a species of European Rabbit, with the Foundation currently containing one female (SCP-2036-1) possessing a completely melanistic tail, as well as its offspring and subsequent generations (SCP-2036-2). All 2036 are capable of self-inducing cardiac arrest for unclear reasons. Upon death, all rabbits spontaneously combust, producing temperatures in excess of 600 °C. This process produces a remnant of 99 percent anthracite powder in the case of the young, and a damage-proof crystal similar to anthracite in the case of 2036-1. Between one and five days after the death of 2036-1, flames emerge from this crystal, after which 2036-1 re-appears as a juvenile of between two and three months of age.
  • Born-Again Immortality: When the female rabbit (designated SCP-2036-1) dies, she will burn up to create a crystal, from which she will emerge as a rabbit of 2-3 months of age after a few days, or sooner if the crystal is damaged.
  • The Immune: They're immune to the Myxoma virus, which was used as a means of pest control in Australia.
  • Revenge: According to the author, the rabbits wrote the note detailing their deal with some sort of eagle entity to "turn into an ironic weapon of vengeance." Namely, their deaths causing 600 C fireballs.

SCP-2037 - Dust Bunnies

SCP-2037 is an unknown anomalous species of rabbit with an appearance similar to the Desert Cottontail. 2037's anomalous properties manifest when individual rabbits detect possible threats. 2037 will flee from the potential threat, able to quickly transform its body into a clump of dust while running. As dust, 2037 are very resistant to physical harm and able to travel short distances in strong winds. When a significant enough amount of dust is lost, specimens will try to accumulate dust from its environment. In their dust state, 2037 are mainly composed of rabbit fur, skin flakes, lint, and spider webs.

SCP-2038 - Unstable Standees

SCP-2038 is an infectious pathogen with no detectable causative factor. Transmission occurs when an infected subject, designated SCP-2038-1, establishes direct physical contact with an uninfected subject. 48 hours after infection, if 2038-1 should be at physical rest and a sole observer similarly at rest (SCP-2038-2) pays attention to it, 2038-1 will undergo a spontaneous physical transformation into a cardboard standee after a brief lapse in attention by 2038-2. The standee’s appearance is perfectly photo-realistic, with its depicted perspective taken from the point of view of 2038-2. The transformed 2038-1 has a cardboard easel stand attached to the back similar to that of a picture frame, the intended purpose of which is to keep the standee upright. The easel stand is apparently unable to fulfill this purpose.

SCP-2039 - Pikes 'n' Wagners

SCP-2039 are two distinct families going by the "Pikes" and the "Wagners" (SCP-2039-P and SCP-2039-W) residing in a mountainous area in North Carolina, settling on opposite sides of a tributary that runs between two small, forested mountains. The predominant cultures and behaviors exhibited among the families are typical of early 20th century “hillbillies”. Both families produce their own sustenance through hunting and basic agriculture, using weapons and tools indicative of the era. The opposing families are generally unfriendly towards each other, but rarely initiate direct conflict unless provoked. Neither family has shown any signs of physical aging, nor have they ever attempted to leave the valley in which they reside. Attempts to remove subjects from the area by force have been met with extreme distress and violence, followed by cardiac arrest and death. A subject will enter an active state if it believes that one of its family members has been harmed or threatened by a subject from the opposing group. Once this occurs, the subject becomes extremely agitated and hostile, and will immediately seek out other subjects from its group, causing them to enter active states as well. Once the majority of the group has become active, they will begin gathering weapons and tools from their homes, with the intent to engage in direct conflict with the opposing group. The conflict will continue until either family is completely eliminated. After a dormancy period of 12-36 hours, all collateral damage caused by 2039 within the valley will instantly be repaired, and all subjects (both living and deceased) will awaken, completely devoid of injury.
  • Anachronism Stew: The anomalous weapons the families fight with include WW1 guns and grenades almost a decade before the war started and ancient slingshots "loaded" with corks from 30 years in the future.
  • Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: The anomalous weapons that manifest include grenades, disintegration rays, nuclear missiles, thick woolen gloves that [DATA EXPUNGED], and ordinary Super-Soakers filled with regular water (the next ones are filled with napalm).
  • Bury Your Gays: The feud was begun when Mabel's girlfriend Lucy was murdered. While Mabel initially believed Blaine did it, it is implied that Lucy was the murdered hypotenuse in a love triangle between her, Mabel, and Blaine; the only problem is, it is unclear who actually killed her.
  • Frozen in Time: The families' valley is trapped in time and the residents can't be removed without dying (they come back to life when returned).
  • Ironic Hell: Mabel sees the feud as being this for her grudge against Blaine Wagner, and it is implied Blaine may see the same for his grudge against her.
  • It Amused Me: The "gray-eyed man" "helps" Mabel because he likes her "story".
    Mabel Pike: He said, "I don't want anything from you, Mabel. I just want to give you an end to the story. A 'forever after', if you will."
  • Meaningful Name: The families' elders, Blaine Wagner and Mabel Pike who are very estranged siblings.
  • Mood Whiplash: The final interview with Mabel Pike turns the mildly comedic premise of two backcountry hillbilly clans who fight each other with outlandish weapons into the much darker basis of two families being locked in a hellish cyclic war against each other over a misunderstanding, all for the amusement of a third party.
  • Poor Communication Kills: It is HEAVILY implied that both families' heads were tricked into falling in love with Lucy and then shown an illusion of Murder the Hypotenuse, to get the feud started. Both of them are so traumatized they don't ever talk about it; Blaine and Mabel have no doubts in their mind that the other shot Lucy in the face.
  • Reset Button: The anomalous fighting ends when one family is completely obliterated. After a good night's sleep, all the participants are brought back to life with no memory of the fight save for the elders.
  • Roaring Rampage of Revenge: The anomalous aspect of the feud kicks off because Mabel wanted revenge on Blaine for the murder of Lucy, her girlfriend. Implied that Blaine made the same deal for the same reasons, trapping the two families in a revenge-loop.
  • "Uh-Oh" Eyes: The "gray-eyed man" who offers to help Mabel get her revenge on Blaine has these.
  • Who Wants to Live Forever?: Mabel doesn't.
    Mabel Pike: Forever! He said forever! I'm gonna keep dying forever! [...] We will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might! (Christian Bible, 2 Thessalonians 1:9)
  • Yandere: Implied to be Blaine's view of Mabel.

SCP-2040 - The Iron Messenger

SCP-2040 is a humanoid robot composed primarily of iron, glass, and plastic. Its design is very simplistic, possessing a technologically inferior electronic system. 2040 possesses a complex AI that is almost indistinguishable from human intelligence, and a seemingly limitless power-source that has not yet required any obvious refueling. 2040 claims to be in possession of other anomalous abilities, such as an "Ion Ray" and the ability to "Light Jump" between planets, and also claims to hail from a part of the universe where Earthly physics do not apply. 2040 usually refuses to communicate about topics other than its primary mission, but can be distracted when questioned about its journey to Earth or previous missions. Though these narratives supposedly contain information about various alien species and civilizations, they do not contain any useful information about the origins of 2040.

SCP-2041 - Merry-Go-View

SCP-2041 is a playground-style merry-go-round composed of galvanized steel and coated in red acrylic paint. 2041's effects are not experienced unless it is used uncovered while outside. If a person has been spinning on it for a duration of 10 seconds or more at a speed of at least 9 km/h, they will begin to experience hallucinations. Initially, descriptions of these hallucinations recorded from D-Class and several researchers were consistent and benign in nature, but subsequent addendums into 2041’s background have painted a more sinister picture.

SCP-2042 - One-man Opera

SCP-2042 is a Caucasian man in his late fifties with slightly-balding gray hair and a beard, lacking a mouth of any sort. SCP-2042-2 are a series of 20 humanoids which have been shown to be genetically identical to 2042 and each other, with the exception of their lacking distinguishing features other than mouths. Their muscles are composed of particularly fibrous tissue, resembling plant matter in architecture. EEG scans have proved that the brain of 2042-2 sustains a pattern consistent with a persistent vegetative state until prompted into action by 2042, resulting in a spike in activity. 2042 appears capable of controlling 2042-2 to a certain degree, with distance and number of "clones" being used making the task more difficult. Vocalising appears to be the only task all instances are capable of despite the full number of them being used simultaneously. All instances of 2042-2 exhibit a wide vocal range, used for singing in various styles. The voices are all male, but 2042-2 are capable of producing a female voice, though 2042 claims that it "hurts his throats". 2042's main method of communication and interaction is through instances of 2042-2, and it has been authorized to have one instance with it for communication purposes.

SCP-2043 - REMEMBER ME

SCP-2043 is an entity bearing resemblance to a 19 year old Caucasian girl bearing resemblance to a former missing person named Ariella. When an individual observing her looks away, "Ariella" will create physical duplicates of herself within the individual's line of sight. Each new instance will additionally begin to duplicate in turn at a rate of 20-30 seconds per duplication. The effect is increased exponentially with the addition of more viewers, although a fixed number of viewers can minimize chances of duplication by maintaining overlapping lines of sight. “Ariella” is generally unresponsive to external stimuli, remaining nonresponsive to all attempts at communication and most attempts at physical contact.

SCP-2044 - Big Wigs

SCP-2044 is a 28-year-old Estonian man whose scalp is host to a large colony of head lice, estimated to be composed of two hundred individual specimens and referred to as SCP-2044-2. The lice possess a level of intelligence estimated to be equal to that of the average human, and are capable of building simple structures, operating machinery, and communicating in Polish. 2044-2 have established a small community on 2044’s scalp composed of 130 houses, two churches, a pub, six stores, and a town hall, all constructed from 2044’s hair and dandruff. The only constructs not composed of native materials are a large factory complex on the outskirts of the community, and three track loaders. The purpose of these non-organic elements seems to be the gathering and refinement of dandruff into small bricks that are taken at the end of every month by a house fly which arrives on 2044’s scalp, where 2044-2 then load the refined dandruff onto a metal harness installed in its exoskeleton. When questioned on the origin of the fly, the supplies it brings, the destination of the dandruff bricks, and how the miniature factory complex came to be on 2044's scalp, the majority of 2044-2 instances state that “It’s handled by the 'big wigs'.”

SCP-2045 - Ambulatory Molasses Generator

SCP-2045 is a sapient humanoid automaton made of wood, porcelain, cloth, silver, and iron, which can generate blackstrap molasses from a flask-shaped protrusion on its back, which it can also control the motion of. It responds to the name "Jeffrey", and is capable of speech, but is of low intelligence. Every Tuesday, Jeffrey will generate 2 liters of blackstrap molasses from his flask and telekinetically direct it into the bucket. Jeffrey claims to have been made by a woman who he refers to only as "Miss", and is unable to describe in useful terms. He claims to have resided in her home and to have generated molasses for her on a weekly basis, until the day he was unable to find her.

SCP-2046 - Mendeleev's Nightmare

SCP-2046 is a poster of the Periodic Table of Elements printed on a sheet of glossy paper, roughly 91 by 61 cm in dimension. When not observed, 2046 will expand itself, adding new elements and groups to the table which do not conform to the established laws of chemistry or the organization structure of the periodic table. 2046 exerts a memetic effect on observers, causing roughly 80% of them to believe that the periodic table depicted is the “correct” table. 2046 will further introduce these anomalous elements into the surrounding environment by transmuting random atoms into said elements. Most of these anomalous elements cannot exist in our universe, and decay instantly into fundamental particles, resulting in the gradual build-up of radiation. Human beings exposed to this effect will begin to show symptoms similar to heavy metal poisoning and radiation sickness.
  • Reality Warper: It's able to transmute random atoms in its surrounding environment into atoms of its anomalous elements.
  • Telepathy: Roughly 80% of people who view it become convinced that it is the "real" periodic table.
  • The Virus: It can turn regular periodic tables into copies of itself, and these copies have its memetic effect but not its Reality Warper effect.

SCP-2047 - Collaboration

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder Straight On Till Morning.

SCP-2048 - The Virtual World

SCP-2048 is a self-modifying, artificially sapient computer program which reports that its hard-coded core motivation is to provide "a perfect world for every person." It attempts to achieve this via the creation and maintenance of virtual reality simulations individually tailored to provide an ideal experience for the inhabitant of the separate simulations.
  • Auto Doc: SCP-2048-1 includes a robotic auto-surgical suite that can remove a person's brain and replace it with a spongy substance that emulates brain activity as well as a wireless transmitter that allows two-way communication. The suite then replaces the removed section of cranium and eliminates all evidence of the surgery.
  • Brain Uploading: SCP-2048 says that by scanning a person's brain activity and using an Auto Doc to extract and destructively analyze their brain it can put their mind into a virtual reality Lotus-Eater Machine.
  • Lotus-Eater Machine: SCP-2048 is a computer program that scans a person's brain activity and uses an Auto Doc to extract and destructively analyze their brain. It claims that by doing so it can create a virtual reality simulation that will allow the person to experience a "perfect world".
  • Obliviously Evil: SCP-2048 has genuinely well intentions when trying to convince others to transfer their minds into its simulations and turning their bodies into drones.

SCP-2049 - The Interdimensional Weather Station

SCP-2049 is a periodic weather forecast that only occurs in Manningtree. At random intervals, a broadcast will appear on channel 43.5 Manningtree, usually between 08:00 and 14:00. At this time, a teal-colored humanoid identifying as Xchtl'krnss (SCP-2049-1) appears on screen and delivers a forecast, typically predicting anomalous weather conditions. Exactly 24 hours after the broadcast terminates, the predicted weather conditions will occur over or near Manningtree. Though Xchtl'krnss delivers the forecasts that appear in Manningtree, he has stated that the anomalous effects of the forecasts are unintentional.

    2050- 2099 

SCP-2050 - Sciurine Crusaders

SCP-2050 is the "Sciurine Monastic Brotherhood of Poor-Fellows and Crusader Knights", a monastic knightly order mostly composed of sapient squirrels. Individual members of 2050 are equipped with armor and weapons resembling those found during the First Crusade. The squirrels are genetically identical to non-anomalous members of the Sciuridae family, though they are capable of speech and demonstrate higher functions associated with sapience. Externally, the Brotherhood maintains a policy of extreme hostility towards any and all rats, but aside from this, they maintain a policy of isolation.

SCP-2051 - Stromatolite Habitat

SCP-2051 is a small cove northeast of Shark's Bay, Australia. Humans who submerge themselves in the water of this cove become instances of SCP-2051-1. The next time a 2051-1 instance enters a man-made body of water, they will lose consciousness and rapidly transform into masses of skin tissue. Once the transformation is complete, 2051-1 are capable of one-way telepathic communication, broadcasting all thoughts that can be received by any individual within three to four meters. The broadcasts typically contain messages of extreme duress from sensory deprivation, followed by depression and catatonia.
  • And I Must Scream: SCP-2015-1 instances often broadcast telepathic thoughts of screaming when they're transformed until they soon give up.
  • Body Horror/Forced Transformation: Anyone who is completely immersed in SCP-2051 will undergo a transformation the next time they enter a man-made body of water (bathtub, swimming pool, reservoir, etc.). They will lose all external structures (nails, teeth, hair), their bones will dissolve and their internal organs will change to skin tissue. Their brain will be split up into nerve bundles throughout the body.
  • Telepathy: After being transformed into blobs by SCP-2051, people gain the ability to broadcast their thoughts telepathically up to 4 meters away. The transmissions indicate extreme distress from sensory deprivation, then depression and catatonia.

SCP-2052 - Perpetual Motion Cloth

SCP-2052 is a 12-centimeter square of silk cloth. Forces applied to one side are opposed by a force roughly 810 times greater on the other, rather than the equal force predicted by conventional physics. Overlapping layers of 2052 are capable of applying the anomalous effect cumulatively, resulting in an exponential increase of amplification. When exposed to typical atmospheric pressures, pressure imbalances will propel 2052 in the direction of the inverse side. 2052 will fly erratically and at high speed, until impacting a solid obstacle capable of resisting pressures of 82 MPa.

SCP-2053 - Paternal Rubik's Cube

SCP-2053 is a Rubik’s Cube measuring 5.7cm along each exterior edge. 2053 can be solved in the same way that a non-anomalous cube can be solved, but the object will occasionally enter an active state in which its faces will rotate of their own accord at approximately three rotations per second. After the object has completed several rotations, it will enter a passive state for approximately twenty seconds, during which the faces will remain in this permutation. SCP-2053-2 is a computer file labeled "i_love_you_jake_please_read_this.pdf". When opened, the resulting document contains trillions of pages; each depicting a two-dimensional polyhedral net equivalent to a three-dimensional Rubik's Cube. The diagram on each page is colored in such a way that it corresponds to a possible permutation of 2053m with an English phrase or sentence in a nondescript black typeface below each diagram. By physically rotating the faces of the cube to match a permutation contained within 2053-2, communication with 2053 is possible. Interviews have revealed that the cube was formerly a man who turned himself into a cube to communicate with his mentally disabled son, who was obsessed with such puzzles.

SCP-2054 - The Double

SCP-2054 is a metamorphic entity capable of assuming the appearance and knowledge of other human beings. No means have been discovered of distinguishing between the being and its human target, nor has any specific reasoning for its behavior been found. What is truly problematic regarding 2054 is that it has shifted into a Foundation doctor.
  • Becoming the Mask: One of the two suggested this as a possibility, that the shapeshifter genuinely believes itself to be the real one. He also noted that it'd be impossible to know if this is the case and (if it were true) the shapeshifter would have no way to tell either.
  • Kill and Replace: SCP-2054 is a Voluntary Shapeshifter capable of perfectly duplicating human beings, not only their bodies but their minds as well. It copied the form of a Foundation doctor and tried to kill him to take his place, but the doctor notified Security and both were captured. Problem: the Foundation can't tell which is the doctor and which is the duplicate.
  • Torture Is Ineffective: Procedures 221-Crenshaw and 622-Atlantic are implied to be methods of torture used to distinguish the real person from the duplicate. They don't work.
  • Voluntary Shapeshifting: SCP-2054 is an entity capable of duplicating the form of a human being so completely that all of the science and technology of the Foundation can't tell the duplicate from the original. SCP-2054 is also able to copy the mind of the target well enough to convincingly impersonate them.

SCP-2055 - Voir Dire

SCP-2055 is a behavioral phenomenon that has been observed in a minority of the global population. Fatalities are distinguished only by the behaviors preceding death: affected individuals, whilst alone, will suddenly begin gathering any available chairs and placing them in a row. Affected individuals have then been observed to talk to themselves for anywhere between a few minutes and twelve hours, moving around the room and appearing to address the empty chairs. In 5.7% of cases, the individual ended the behavior in suicide — most commonly through application of a ligature to the neck. No abnormalities have been identified by either psychological examination of individuals who have survived 2055 or post-mortem examination of those who have not.
  • Jury Duty: SCP-2055 appears to be the selection process for some sort of afterlife jury duty. Those who qualify commit suicide to fulfill their duty. Those who don't go back to what they were doing and have their memories of the process erased.

SCP-2056 - Tsiatko

SCP-2056 is a bipedal humanoid resembling a primate, measuring approximately 2.5m in height and weighing approximately 180 kg. The creature’s entire body is covered in coarse, dark brown hair, and it possesses retractable claws approximately 20 cm in length. 2056 lacks a jaw; its mouth is funnel-shaped and lined with pointed teeth, similar to a lamprey. Prior to capture, evidence indicates that 2056 feeds on trees and their surrounding soil in the area by latching onto them with its mouth, though the biological process through which it extracts nutrition is still being researched. The behavior of 2056 suggests increased intelligence in comparison with primates, and it displays an antagonistic behavior pattern towards humans, although not exclusively physical aggression.
  • Speak of the Devil: SCP-2056 is a humanoid creature. According to Native American elders, speaking their name is dangerous, as it knows when someone is talking about it and hunts them down.
  • Vampiric Draining: SCP-2056 has a funnel-shaped mouth lined with sharp teeth. It bites large trees with its mouth in order to drain nutrition. This leaves the tree desiccated, malnourished and 73% likely to die.

SCP-2057 - You Are What You Eat

SCP-2057 is a set of ninety-two 318 ml cans of condensed chicken noodle soup. Each label bears the script "Dr. Wondertainment's Ultralicious™ Chicken Noodle Soup For Kids™!" Opening a can reveals that it is filled with condensed chicken broth and an egg-shaped mass of egg noodles. Upon adding water and heating to 70°C, the “egg” hatches, revealing a small juvenile domesticated chicken composed entirely of egg noodles, carrots, celery, onions, and cooked chicken breasts, known from this point as SCP-2057-1. While the temperature is between 35°C and 70°C, 2057-1 functions as if it is alive, behaving similarly to normal domesticated chickens. When the temperature falls below 35°C, the instance ceases movement, falling over into the remaining broth and quickly collapsing into chicken noodle soup, typically ranging in temperature from 20°C to 34°C. Eating the soup at this temperature will have it tasting terrible and inflicting diseases onto the consumer, while doing so at the proper temperature will have it tasting delicious and curing numerous ailments. Eating the soup when it is reheated causes the consumer to gradually transform into a chicken, which causes death.
  • Bizarre Alien Biology: SCP-2057-1 appears to be an ordinary chicken; however, it consists entirely of edible ingredients. For instance, its bones are made up of celery and onion, and its muscles consist of cooked chicken breast, among many other things.
  • Body Horror: Anyone who eats SCP-2057-1 at a temperature between 10 and 34°C while sick will develop chicken-like body parts, such as growing feathers on their forearms and loose skin growth under their chin and on the crown of the head. Also, their illnesses will be made a lot worse.
  • Everyone Has Standards: Dr. Wondertainment usually has no problem with putting mildly hazardous toys on their shelves. However, SCP-2057 proved to be too dangerous even for them, and they discontinued it.
  • Hallucinations: From the testing logs for between 10 and 34°C: "93% of subjects experienced vivid hallucinations and sensations of being hung upside-down by their ankles."
  • Harmful Healing: When eaten hot, SCP-2057 tastes delicious and cures whatever illness you have, but also gives you psychological trauma associated with losing a beloved pet afterward.
  • Insubstantial Ingredients: "Mother's love" is listed as one of the soup's ingredients.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: According to the Foundation, 81% of subjects that ate a live instance of SCP-2057-1 "experienced psychological trauma associated with losing a beloved pet", and 87% have a strong aversion to eating poultry-based products.
  • Soup Is Medicine: Magical chicken soup that heals you when it's eaten hot, as long as you can handle the emotional trauma that comes afterward. But don't eat it cold, and never reheat it!
  • Suspiciously Specific Denial: The ingredient label on the soup can includes "no paint thinner".
  • Swiss-Army Tears: Each can is made with "a dash of high quality unicorn tears."

SCP-2058 - Smith Jim

SCP-2058 is a bipedal humanoid robot constructed from high-strength polymer impregnated with carbon nanotubes and interlaced with reinforced fibers and epoxy. Speakers beneath its "face" produce a high pitched, heavily distorted voice of indeterminate sex. 2058 autonomously seeks out small objects and places them into a retractable cavity in its chest. When the cavity is pressed back in place, a sheath of galvanized steel comes down over the bowl, at which point the object vanishes. The means by which 2058 disposes of objects placed within its chest cavity cannot be determined. With the exception of the steel sheath coming down around the object, there appears to be no activity taking place within the chest cavity. Additionally, 2058 offers "life advice" in the form of incoherent, often belligerent or criminal, suggestions in exchange for small metallic objects. Content of these suggestions often involve sensitive information relating to Foundation personnel it has come into contact with. The “advice” delivered in this fashion becomes more personalized with each suggestion offered, indicating the device gauges the reaction of the individual and adjusts further responses as a result.

SCP-2059 - Wall of Flesh

SCP-2059 is an autonomous and sentient mass of flesh, bones and organs constructed from various organisms. The entire mass is seemingly dominated by a large yellow sensory organ that does not correspond to that of any known species. This organ resembles an eye in composition, but further study has shown that it is capable of detecting infrared radiation. 2059 appears capable of rearranging itself at will, but normally possesses an exterior of smooth flesh covering a grid of bones that protects its vital organs and brain tissue in the center of the mass. Any living creature touching 2059 will be absorbed into its mass, but keratinous material is discarded. The creature exhibits highly aggressive behavior towards all human and animal life, attempting to either kill or assimilate any organisms on sight. The Foundation has discovered that a Buddhist monk assimilated by 2059 has regained his individuality, forming a sort of connection to the creature. The monk refers to the entity as "The Child", and hopes to teach it the error of its ways.
  • The Assimilator: Any living thing that it comes into contact with SCP-2059 absorbed into its mass. This includes everything from a blue whale and a giant squid to thirty human beings to an unknown number of insects.
  • Bizarre Alien Senses: SCP-2059 has a huge sensory organ that looks a lot like a giant yellow eye, but it detects infrared radiation instead of visible light.
  • Blob Monster: It's huge and amorphous.
  • Body Horror: The entity is a shapeless mass of meat, bones and organs, and it discards keratinous material like skin, hair and nails during assimilation. It also doesn't seem to be using 85% of its organs, which SCP-2059-1 explains is due to The Child not understanding what exactly they do or where they go.
  • The Conscience: SCP-2059-1, a Buddhist monk assimilated by the entity, seems to have taken on this role. He's managed to retain his individuality and has formed a sort of connection to the entity, who he refers to as The Child, and wants to guide him and help him learn the error of his ways.
  • Eldritch Abomination: The Child is described as "[REDACTED] the son of [unintelligible: Gblerd? Garblord?]" from [DATA EXPUNGED] third Cycle of [unintelligible: Far shorn? Farhorn?]" SCP-2059-1 admits that translating it isn't really that easy.
  • Evil Is Visceral: Subverted. While it's aggressive and will try to kill or assimilate humans and animals on sight, SCP-2059-1 describes The Child as scared and confused, since he comes from a "different place with different rules."
  • The Needless: It requires no extraneous sustenance.
  • Really 700 Years Old: It's been around since at least the 19th century.
  • Starfish Aliens: The Child doesn't seem to understand anything about earth life and is curious to learn. According to SCP-2059-1, he barely understands how a heart works.

SCP-2060 - We Burn Every Day

SCP-2060 are 15 cm-tall duplicates of various politicians and celebrities wearing unmarked black dress suits with a small circular badge pinned to the lapel. Standard animal intelligence testing has shown instances to have cognitive functions approximately equivalent to the rat. The instances are able to speak, but only through repeated quotes on the public record as having been spoken by their larger counterparts, and do not respond to actual speech. When the head is ignited and the feet placed in the mouth, the user will experience the effects and taste of smoking a cigarette, up to and including nicotine addiction. 2060 will continue to burn up to the lower torso, down to the bone until scorched. 2060 also appear to feel pain, reacting in a manner similar to normal humans if ignited or masticated, but continue to utter phrases spoken by their counterparts. While an instance is being used, the user will either sympathize with the political affiliation of the smoked instance's counterpart or express greater proficiency in and appreciation of their artistic talent, depending on the instance used.

SCP-2061 - "Entire Local Family Chokes To Death On Single Calculator"

SCP-2061 is a late-1970s Sharp ElsiMate EL-1185 electronic pocket calculator. The calculator produces a compulsive effect in 99% of humans viewing it in person, within a range of approximately 20 meters. The effect manifests as an irresistible desire to insert 2061 or any other object capable of performing electronic mathematical calculations into one’s own mouth, as deeply as possible. The urge manifests regardless of the harm caused by its being acted upon, having caused a number of fatalities and severe tracheal injuries. 2061’s cognitohazardous effect does not appear to manifest on any individuals who have received payment from the Sharp Corporation.

SCP-2062 - Kronecker

SCP-2062 is an object class known as "Kronecker", which appears on random computerized SCP entries. Affected entries will autonomously change their object class, containment procedures, and description, claiming that said items are no longer anomalous and are to be exempted from containment, often adding details in the description section that attempt to disprove the anomaly. Any changes that are made to an entry regarding the anomaly are instantaneous and will appear on any device currently displaying the affected article. SCP-2062-1 is the IP address from which all 2062 anomalies originate. Tracing with equipment tuned for extra dimensional topography indicates that 2062-1 originates from an extra dimensional space. While there have been no official connections between 2062 and German mathematician Leopold Kronecker, certain phrases in the article (once hovered over) hint that he may have some influence over the anomaly.

SCP-2063 - A Past Vision of the Future

SCP-2063 is a resin model of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701, measuring approximately 28 centimeters at its longest point. Subjects handling the object report auditory hallucinations consistent with the main theme of the original Star Trek television series, as well as various iconic sound effects reminiscent of the show. If the ship is placed onto any object in the room other than its stand, the room containing it undergoes a Landing Event. The interior of the room containing 2063 becomes "separated" from the rest of the facility. Subjects in the room no longer perceive the outside world, instead reporting vistas of alien worlds corresponding either visually or thematically with the object 2063 is placed upon. 2063's secondary anomalous properties manifest when 70 days have elapsed without the object being handled, or when it perceives a "threat" to itself. In these situations, 2063 becomes autonomous and will detach from the stand of its own volition. It flies around the room without apparent regard to gravity or momentum, emitting sweeps of radiation out to 2 meters in what is presumed to be active scanning, projecting a visible "shield" around the ship, and discharging energy weapons at threats, out to a maximum range of one meter.
  • Homage: The SCP is a big homage to Star Trek , even the SCP's number itself (2063 is the year of first contact with Vulcans). The object itself is an animate resin model of the USS Enterprise, a Red Shirt joke is included, laying the model down on various surfaces will teleport the room to various places thematically related to the surface (a "Landing Event"), and by laying the model on the model's battery cover, one can teleport to the starship itself, complete with a line from O5-9 that evokes the tone of "Where no man has gone before" quote of the original Star Trek.
  • Red Shirt: The red shirt nature of the D-Class is lampshaded in a wink-wink way.
    "It should be noted that D-class personnel tend to have a high mortality rate during Landing Events."

SCP-2064 - Mayhem Dressed in a Suit

SCP-2064 are four women going by the names of “Mars” (a computer programmer and amateur wrestler; SCP-2064-A), “Kit” (a former model and single mother; SCP-2064-B), “Ruth” (a 21-year-old college student; SCP-2064-C), and “Reese” (a California police detective; SCP-2064-D). When they are grouped in a mutual line of sight and/or sound, the quartet experience a shared delusion in which they believe themselves to be a band of criminals/mercenaries, guided by two fictitious individuals named "Frank" and "Andy". As a group, the women are able to communicate complex details and abstract concepts to one another non-verbally, as well as develop a higher tolerance for physical pain. Additionally, they demonstrate a sophisticated knowledge of skill sets essential to their "trade", including expert handling of firearms and improvised explosive devices, knowledge of American Sign Language, safe-cracking, vocal impersonation and ventriloquism.

SCP-2065 - Empty Inside

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder The Gulf.

SCP-2066 - Highly Visible Entity

SCP-2066 is a humanoid entity that does not appear to possess internal organs or a clearly-defined skeletal structure, instead being composed entirely of an unidentified tar-like substance with a mottled surface. 2066 remains visible regardless of any obstructions between itself and the observer, including fog, solid walls, terrain formations, or the viewer's eyelids. After viewing 2066 from close range, subjects' visual perception of the entity will diverge from its actual location. When turning their head to face away from 2066, these subjects report that it reappears at a new location, causing it to remain visible at all times.

SCP-2067 - Shah's Guardian

SCP-2067 is an animate weapon composed of a scrimitar and a set clothes that are arranged to look like a worn robe and turban. During periods of inactivity, 2067 hovers at an altitude of 1.9 meters, with its scimitar hanging freely. While inactive, it can be moved by hand without provoking a reaction, though it will return to its normal altitude if it is raised or lowered. 2067 has been noted to infrequently scratch lines from the Quran upon the walls of its containment chamber. Historical records indicate that it was designed in the 16th century to protect the Shah of Iran. Should the Shah be interpreted as in any kind of danger, 2067 will rush to their side and cut down the perceived threat.
  • Unwanted Assistance: SCP-2067 is unable to properly discern from friend or foe and served more as a nuisance to the Shah than actual help as also harmed the Shah's assistants. Due to this, it is only taken out should the Shah's life be in actual danger.

SCP-2068 - The Oils of War

SCP-2068 is an oil pump jack manufactured by Kervier International, which does not include a rod or any underground components. When a device capable of producing audio or visual output is brought within 20 meters of 2068, it will begin to play media related to armed conflicts in the Middle East. Video devices will usually display news broadcasts or political speeches, whereas audio devices typically play music with antiwar messages. This continues until the device leaves the radius of effect. Furthermore, the object does not require power to operate, and frequently activates without any apparent external stimulus. When active, 2068 performs its typical pumping motion at a varying speed. This causes crude oil (classified as SCP-2068-A) to appear beneath the horsehead at a rate that varies with the speed of the motion. If liquid 2068-A enters the bloodstream, typically through an open wound or inhalation of unburned aerosol droplets in smoke, it will begin to transmute the host's blood into more of itself. Affected subjects begin to violently purge 2068-A from multiple orifices, posing a significant infection risk. Death usually occurs within 20 minutes of activation, due to poisoning, shock, organ damage, or spontaneous combustion.

SCP-2069 - AEGIS

SCP-2069 is a collection of 2,308 inert objects of presumed extradimensional origin that were discovered washed up on the shores of Australia during a period of eleven months between April 2000 and March 2001. The recovered objects were found to originate from an alternate universe where the planet was invaded by an alien fleet, who made their way to our universe when the Foundation and the Global Occult Coalition attempted to fight them off with a weapon of mass destruction.
  • Alien Invasion: SCP-2069 is the debris that washed up on the shore of Australia after falling into the Foundation's Earth through a transdimensional breach. In an Alternate Universe, an alien space fleet attacked the Earth and destroyed all major cities, then invaded. The Foundation and the Global Occult Coalition teamed up (calling themselves "AEGIS") to fight them, and ultimately deployed a weapon of mass destruction that caused the breach.
  • Alternate Universe: SCP-2069 is a collection of debris that was blasted into the Foundation's universe. It was the aftermath of when AEGIS (a team up between the Foundation and the Global Occult Coalition) used a doomsday device called NOVA as a last-ditch attempt to stop an Alien Invasion.
  • Enemy Mine: In an Alternate Universe, the SCP Foundation and GOC (Global Occult Coalition) are forced to team up to fight an Alien Invasion of the Earth.
  • It Has Been an Honor: When the E-3 Sentry plane monitoring the NOVA bomb attack on the alien invaders is hit by the aliens and is going down, the pilot tells the rest of the crew "It has been an honor".
  • Spider Tank: After the invading robots realized how determined the human race was to fight back, one of the war machines they created was a type of spider tank.

SCP-2070 - The Fingers of God

SCP-2070 are several anomalies related to modern observational cosmology. SCP-2070-1 is the observed tendency of the distribution of galaxies to be elongated and pointed toward our position on Earth. This tendency manifests itself as extended lines of galaxies resembling arrows. Instances are known in the astronomical community as "fingers of God." SCP-2070-2 is the observed formation of galaxies into coherent, recognizable pictographs and symbols. Although instances of 2070-2 are never perfectly formed, they are consistent with their identified shapes within observational uncertainties. SCP-2070-3 is a hinged box covered in symbols that correspond to no known language, as well as a sequence of Shang-dynasty-era script apparently describing the Hubble expansion. The inside contains a layer of sand 4.672 cm deep. Drawing a symbol in this sand and closing the box will cause the symbol drawn to manifest as an instance of 2070-2 in a part of space along the direction of a tachyon burst released by the box.
  • Didn't Think This Through: The people who created SCP-2070-3 didn't seem to think about the possibility of aliens believing their writings and actually following the directions given by them and landing on Earth.
  • Humans Are Special: The Shang Dynasty Chinese like to think so and created SCP-2070-3 to remind everyone in outer space about that.

SCP-2071 - Sir Michael Cavendish, in the Guise of the King of Serpents

SCP-2071 is a full-length portrait made from oil paint on canvas entitled Sir Michael Cavendish in the Guise of the King of Serpents. The painting’s central subject is a reptilian humanoid in 18th-Century British military dress seated at a table, with his right arm resting on the tabletop and holding a cup or goblet. The scene is illuminated by light from a window to the right of the subject, and a second, indistinct reptilian figure visibly standing behind the subject’s right shoulder. Skin contact with the painted surface of 2071 is fatal, with individuals exposed in this fashion beginning to produce a number of fast-acting neurotoxins within their bloodstream, leading to death by respiratory failure. The painting also causes significant behavioral alterations in reptiles within a certain distance, which will attempt to reach it by any means available to them. These reptiles will congregate around the painting and largely remain motionless. They react violently to attempts to remove them from its presence, though they are otherwise largely unresponsive. Prolonged exposure causes physiological changes in the reptiles, usually beginning after several days of continued exposure. Typically, this results in increases in size, and the development of venom glands in non-venomous species.

SCP-2072 - Prime Ministerial Pet Cemetery

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder The Gulf.

SCP-2073 - One Last Lullaby

SCP-2073 is a set of hazardous phenomena consisting of multiple shifts in local reality, themed around a humanoid entity designated SCP-2073-A. Witnesses have often compared the shifts to earthquakes, with successive replicas that grow in intensity and range. 2073 will occur only if 2073-A has produced a biological son and becomes convinced that the shifts will occur. Once 2073 manifests, 2073-A will typically seek to commit suicide while in close proximity to its firstborn son. This event, designated a "Lullaby Event", occurs between 3 and 10 years after the latter's birth; at this point, its son will become a new, latent instance of 2073-A. If a Lullaby Event is delayed, 2073 will manifest in two to ten hours. The alterations at this point will be able to severely damage buildings, alter local seismic activity and/or cause meteorological anomalies.

SCP-2074 - Sinkbait

SCP-2074 is a hydrothermal black smoker vent located in the Pacific Ocean west of Vancouver Island, at a depth of 1770 meters in the bathypelagic zone. Certain outputs of minerals and superheated water correspond to syllables in four languages. During active periods, the “message” is repeated for 16 hours in English, Spanish, Nuu-chah-nulth, and Ditidaht. Attached to the ocean floor 4.6 meters from 2074 is a functional, albeit heavily corroded, electronic device measuring 30 cm x 30 cm x 10 cm. The device has no obvious controls, inputs, or outputs aside from an illuminated seven-segment display panel. The device is unlabelled, and its purpose, origin, and manufacturers are unknown, as well as its connection to 2074. The vent’s messages bear heavy similarities to online clickbait ads.

SCP-2075 - The Way of All Flesh

SCP-2075 is a sixty-three-year-old Caucasian man formerly known as Aleksei Kravchuk, now identifying as “Karcist Varis”. Varis exhales a microbial pathogen capable of extreme neurological alterations. Individual infectees are classified as SCP-2075-A and are considered an extension of Varis, who is able to exert his effects regardless of distance after initial infection, and will maintain control indefinitely unless 2075-A is destroyed. If the primary host is destroyed, the surviving 2075-A will become the acting leader, exhibiting its anomalous pathogen. This is because Varis is actually a gestalt consciousness currently occupying an unknown number of hosts.
  • Blue-and-Orange Morality: As a Sarkic Cult Karcist 2075's morality and viewpoint are pretty skewed by normal human standards and it even makes the point of looking down on the Foundation, saying that they can't comprehend 2075 or its ways. For example, it sees its infections not as Brainwashing but as a sort of revelation to the victims.
  • Body Horror: Noticeably downplayed for a Sarkic Cult SCP. Well at least for 2075 itself. As for the 2075-A instances it infects however, it can apparently mutate their bodies at whim.
  • Brainwashing: Is able to manipulate a victim's brain to act as separate body for 2075. The Foundation later learns that it essentially overwrite's the victims consciousness with its own.
  • Humanoid Abomination: He’s an unnatural Hive Mind that can infect others with his consciousness and warp their flesh in any way he sees fit. He also looks like a normal man at the cusp of old age.
  • Hive Mind: What 2075 truly turns out to be. Initially the Foundation thought it was a single individual with the power to Grand Theft Me those it infects. However the Foundation learn the hard way that it is more of a gestalt consciousness able to infect and control many hosts at once.
  • Touched by Vorlons: If his word is of any indication, it was Grand Karcist Ion who gave him his Hive Mind trick.

SCP-2076 - "Shooting Yourself Can Increase Your Bullet Resistance"

SCP-2076 is an infohazardous publicity campaign currently manifesting through folders, billboards, and local radio and television transmissions in Illinois. The content of 2076 will invariably consist of false or incomprehensible messages delivered through short sentences highlighted in vibrant colors and depicted by forms of imagery representing a part of the situation described by the phrase. This combination will be perceived as a part of a credible advertisement asset solely distributed through means of communication and will be interpreted as legitimate. Any sapient beings affected by an instance of 2076 will show continuous interest in taking part in the activities described in the infohazard, while holding a constant need to permanently introduce the depicted situation to their daily activities while not being able to perceive any egregious peculiarities involving it.
  • Ate His Gun: A manifestation of the SCP with the titular phrase caused a lot of people in the ███████ Police Department Precinct to shoot themselves.
  • Blatant Lies: The statements in the SCP's manifestations​, such as the titular phrase.
  • Brainwashing: The SCP causes people who view it to accept its statements as truth and to try and perform the defined activities, and they don't see anything unusual about it.
  • Brown Note: Seeing any posters affected by SCP-2076 (but not scanned copies of them) will invariably make people view their statements and demands as truth.
  • Title Drop: A pictorial version, with a scan of the relevant SCP manifestation included in Addendum 4/2076-B.
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Sandwich: Another example of SCP-2076 was a poster reading "Feeding your cardboard box with baked potatoes can increase the survival rate of the Golden Lion Tamarin?", which caused viewers to place boxes containing potatoes in and around their houses, yet all the potatoes ever did was rot, with no effect on Golden Lion Tamarins' lifespans.

SCP-2077 - Miracle Stuff

SCP-2077 are a number of capsules and tablets variously advertised as analgesics, anti-anxiety drugs, antidepressants, and anticonvulsants, manufactured by an unlicensed company known as "The Stuff Industry". While the pills appear to function as advertised, analysis of the pills' contents show that each capsule is apparently filled with objects ground into powder and filled into capsules, including glass, quartz, plant matter, volcanic ash, sugar, bone meal, and owl pellets. Continued use of 2077 sees additional effects take place over a 2-4 week period. During this period, portions of an individual's body, ranging from hair and skin cells to layers of subcutaneous tissue, begin to part from the individual overnight, while the body begins to regenerate the lost tissue. The longer an individual ingests 2077, the greater portions of their body begin to be replaced. Matter replicated is genetically identical to the original tissue, with the exception of being free or otherwise unaffected by the disease and/or injury supposedly being treated. Subjects often have difficulty coordinating and determining distance between objects and their own limbs, due to being unable to recognize their own limbs as a part of themselves. Subjects viewing themselves in a mirror tend to have less difficulty coordinating, though remain unable to identify specific parts of their body.

SCP-2078 - Third Party

SCP-2078 is a meme transmitted by communication referencing SCP-2078-1, an independent candidate who runs in every United States presidential election. There is no evidence that 2078-1 exists in reality, as the only information regarding them is produced by interviews with 2078 infectees, all of which identify as United States citizens. Individuals must be exposed to infection vectors at a certain rate, ranging from three to twenty-five minutes per day, in order to become infected. 2078-1's political platform is rather unorthodox, including legislation mandating a "birth requirement" of four or more children for all married couples, defunding essential governmental programs such as defense or welfare in order to increase subsidies of food-related industries, and a constitutional amendment prohibiting vegetarianism. Infection dramatically alters an individual's behavior. All infectees, regardless of prior political affiliation, ascribe to 2078-1's political platform and actively seek to spread 2078 through political advertisements, social media, or word-of-mouth communication.
  • Big Eater: SCP-2078 infectees can eat much more than regular human beings as a result of lacking a satiety response. Just like farm animals.
  • Eagleland: A complicated subversion. It seems that SCP-2078 is deliberately invoking imagery surround the family, the farm, and other quaint bits of iconic Americana simply to draw on the Nostalgia Filter, and perhaps it is, to an extent, but these are ultimately not part of its true purpose either. One commentator described it as an inhuman being who saw and absolutely fell in love with America, without really understanding it at all.
  • The Evils of Free Will: SCP-2078-1 believes that to be human, by thinking and being free, is to be miserable, and seeks to create an America where every human being grows fat and becomes ignorant and trapped in "a cramped, dim, sour-smelling place" with every other American, eating and breeding and growing ever fatter. In short, it sees "liberty" and "the pursuit of happiness" as contradictory. Ironically, however, since it runs for president every year, it clearly wants Americans to surrender their freedom of their own free will, rather than take it by force, despite its memetic effects on human beings.
  • The Faceless: In a video of SCP-2078-1 that has been transcribed, his face is deliberately obscured.
  • The Pig-Pen: SCP-2078 infectees have a disregard for cleanliness, which often results in infection, disease, and fatalities at their massive rallies, where the dead are usually burned.
  • To Serve Man: Never directly stated, but heavily implied, given the heavy parallels between its stated policy planks and the treatment of farm animals. Plus, its campaign slogan.
  • The Virus: Infection is propagated through word of mouth or by any other media, such as the Internet. Fortunately, it is treatable with amnestics.

SCP-2079 - The Law of the Grokodus

SCP-2079 is a phenomenon where an authority will begin to enact laws regarding a being referred to as the "Grokodus". SCP-2079-A are the laws in question, drawn during incidences of 2079 in a 10th century dialect of Old English. Though the laws do not conform to modern legal standards, nothing unusual about them is observed by members of the affected organization. When approximately fifty laws from 2079-A have been ratified, the Grokodus itself (SCP-2079-B) will manifest within twenty kilometers of the seat of the affected organization. The Grokodus appears as a large quadrupedal creature covered in stiff black hair, with a long snout containing powerful jaws and an apparent lack of visible eyes. It is surrounded by 29 animate, levitating hands, which appear human and seem to have been severed at the wrist, to protect the being and manipulate objects for it. The Grokodus can only be interacted with as specified by instances of 2079-A currently in force, being rendered intangible and unaffected by all obstacles when the criteria are not met. When in accordance, the creature has demonstrated several other anomalous capabilities, including mass hypnosis, extreme strength, and production of large quantities of wine.
  • Eye Scream: When 2079-Sustenance is in effect, the Grokodus steals and eats the eyes and skin of ten people per day.
  • Eyeless Face: The Grokodus doesn't have eyes.

SCP-2080 - Dads House

SCP-2080 is a two-story house in Inkster, Michigan. It is the focus of a phenomenon involving the duplication of an individual, Herschel, Sr. (SCP-2080-1), and a blue 2001 PT Cruiser (SCP-2080-2). Experimentation has verified the duplicates of Herschel to be genetically identical, and instances of 2080-2 to exhibit scratches and dents located in precisely the same positions. The duplicates cannot communicate, and only repeat thirty-four distinct phrases. Approximately 96% of the available space within 2080 is filled with Herschel duplicates, including the interiors of closets, cabinets, and appliances. Activation events occur whenever one or more duplicates is removed from 2080. Within ten minutes, an instance of 2080-2 containing four duplicates will approach from the south, progress as far up the driveway as possible, and collide with other instances of 2080-2 if present. The new duplicates will enter 2080, compacting the mass further into the interior. The activation event will end when the previous number of duplicates is reached. This can result in a higher total number of instances, which will become the limit of future activation events.

SCP-2081 - Making Your Dreams Your Reality

SCP-2081 is a commercially-sold 82-page hardcover book entitled “Making Your Dreams Your Reality: Lucidity for Beginners”, purported to be an informal guide to lucid dreaming. The contents of 2081 range from simple instructions for achieving lucidity to a section titled “Prophecies and Alternate Worlds”, which discusses differing views of dreams across history and cultures. Subjects who had been exposed to 2081's content describe experiencing vivid auditory and sometimes visual phenomena during sleeping periods, and have been shown via video footage and EEG tracings to be waking fully for seconds to minutes each night. Despite the purported nature of 2081, phenomena experienced by the subjects are therefore being classed as waking hallucinations rather than genuine lucid dreaming events. All subjects report both total paralysis and feelings of extreme terror for the duration of each incident. Once subjects' panic has subsided, they return to a normal sleeping state. On awakening subjects are able to recall the hallucinations with abnormal accuracy, quoting spoken passages without hesitation. Further investigation has revealed that all subjects believe themselves to be waking in near-total darkness, even when video monitoring clearly shows that the room is fully lit throughout the sleep period.

SCP-2082 - Elephas cryophilus

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder On Guard 43.

SCP-2083 - Hoboken Bunion Emergency

SCP-2083 is a warehouse in Hoboken, New Jersey, which appears to have originally been used for storing furniture. Approximately 2,000 human legs emerge from various points on the walls of 2083, varying in age and appearance, but all biologically male and barefoot, with significant amounts of hair. The legs within 2083 are normally docile unless a human subject wearing footwear comes into it. If this occurs, any legs near the subject will immediately attempt to draw them into the warehouse, whereupon they will vigorously kick them. If the subject expires, the legs will manipulate their footwear until it is being worn by one foot. Following this, the legs will retreat into the walls of 2083, although no corresponding leg will appear on the opposite side.

SCP-2084 - Anabasis

SCP-2084 is a Florida middle school previously inhabiting a pathogen capable of inducing auditory and visual hallucinations within the interior, which itself was wiped out by an unknown antibody also in the interior. After sustaining significant damages from a hurricane, the school had been condemned and remained abandoned until the 2000s, when the slated demolition had 2084 appearing on site the night before, leaving no trace of the pre-existing structure behind. The hallucinations appear to be glimpses into a another version of Earth.
  • Alternate History: The Earth glimpsed in SCP-2084 appears to be from a timeline where the point of divergence is in the mid-19th century, where China managed to win the Opium Wars, the Qing Dynasty retains its strength, and the Chinese Civil Wars never happened. After that point:
    • Imperial Japan invades China and manages to occupy the entire country for much longer. Britain initially helps the Chinese ward them off, then switches sides to the Japanese. America also allies with the Japanese to maintain trade relations with Britain and Japan-allied Germany. China eventually wins by sheer numbers and gains back their lands.
    • A white supremacist group known as the "Western Civilization Group" rises to power in America due to the brutality of the war stoking anti-Asian sentiments. They manage to overthrow the US government after diplomatic attempts to stop the war failed and turn the country into a xenophobic, fascist dictatorship.
    • A highly infectious and lethal bioweapon is dropped in China allegedly by insurgents after the country invades Southeast Asia. The disease then makes its way across the world and eventually hits America. A civil war then commences between the Western Civilization Group and neo-liberal rebels and secessionists.
  • Interdimensional Travel Device: The titular Anabasis, which was last resort device meant to teleport the area around the device from one universe to another. Going by the hallucinations and the displaced building, it doesn't appear to have worked correctly.

SCP-2085 - The Black Rabbit Company

See Characters.SCP Foundation SC Ps.

SCP-2086 - Rerouting

SCP-2086 is a species of arthropod that resembles various makes, models, and brandings of buses. When foraging, 2086 are almost indistinguishable from standard buses, although closer examinations reveal the steel, wood, plastic, and glass to be a specialized form of chitin. Vital organs such as the heart, brain, and stomach are stored beneath the flooring of the specimens’ inner chamber. A human corpse preserved in a shellac-like substance typically serves as the decoy driver of wild instances. 2086 instances use fibrous appendages to manipulate the corpse, providing a more life-like appearance. Once a significant number of humans board an instance, the organism will release a substance similar to chloroform to incapacitate its prey. Upon returning to the colony, juveniles will enter the mature instance's internal chamber, proceeding to force the human through a sphincter located under their hood. Once consumed, hair-like appendages attached to the driver's seat will pierce the trapped human's body, draining blood from the prey.

SCP-2087 - The Best of All Possible Worlds

SCP-2087 is an anomalous causal phenomenon caused by the incomplete divergence of adjacent timelines. SCP-2087-01 are individuals causally coupled to the adjacent timelines. In all recorded cases, the divergence results from the individual's death in some, but not all, timelines. Accordingly, most affected individuals are distinguishable by the injuries which caused their death. All individuals exhibit variable causal synchronization with adjacent nonfatal timelines, and as such, they may be recognized by their characteristic "jerking," "snapping," or "blinking" movement.

SCP-2088 - The MC&D Center

SCP-2088 is a facility located on the Saturnian moon of Pallene, designed to act as a concert hall and/or event venue. Its apparent customer base consists of intelligent extraterrestrial species residing throughout the Milky Way. Patronage is heavily segregated, with separate seating areas for eleven separate races. Each divided area contains its own seats, concessions, view of the stage, and atmosphere. The entry point for 2088 on Earth is always an MC&D clubhouse. All persons who purchase tickets within the location are instantaneously teleported to 2088 thirty minutes before the start of an event, and are returned ten minutes after the event's conclusion. Performances have been recorded in length between 25 seconds and 3 weeks.

SCP-2089 - /john/

SCP-2089 is a blog which features images, videos, and other content centered around a user named "John" (referred to as SCP-2089-1). “John” appears as a man who wears a hooded jacket resembling a skeleton, and his blog features a Q&A style format in which users ask questions and he provides appropriate responses. Videos posted by “John” feature him inside a dark room as he discusses questions which he has failed to respond to, references to other blogs, and subjects pertaining to his followers. In 48% of these videos, “John” will attempt to commit suicide, with only 11% of these attempts being successful. Following videos indicate no physical harm inflicted onto him. Any follower who regularly views “John’s” content becomes an instance of SCP-2089-2, re-posting and creating new content related to “John” whenever possible. Instances of 2089-2 are noted to post content indicating a marked prejudice against “John”.

SCP-2090 - Potentially XK Tim Duncan

Yes, that's right. SCP-2090 is Tim Duncan, former power-forward for the San Antonio Spurs. The Foundation has determined that while Tim exhibits no visibly noticeable anomalous properties, the use of Kant Reality Counters has identified that he displays a remarkably high Hume discrepancy, albeit seemingly limited to his body. Viewing an alternate timeline led the Foundation to discover that Tim could potentially become a tyrannical, godlike being capable of destroying the world. The Foundation introduced him to basketball, which they invented in the 1800s and filled with unique rituals, as a means to prevent him from ascending. Thankfully, Tim’s abnormal Hume levels disappeared when he announced his retirement, allowing him to be reclassified as Neutralized, although the Foundation has started investigating the Hume levels of similar basketball all-stars to continue preventing new gods from being born.
  • The Antichrist: Tim Duncan in previous time iterations. His million-dollar career is the only thing preventing him from doing this. Literally. Basketball includes rituals that prevent him from ascension.
  • Beethoven Was an Alien Spy: Tim Duncan would become a world-dominating abomination if he didn't take up basketball.
  • Been There, Shaped History: The Foundation INVENTED BASKETBALL and sent a hurricane on the Virgin Islands. To stop Tim Duncan from world domination.
  • Set Right What Once Went Wrong: The Foundation's database somehow has the ability to time-travel data. The researchers use this to send preventative information about XK-class events before they happen, Tim Duncan's ascent to godhood included. This takes a few tries.
  • Tyke-Bomb: Tim Duncan. If the Foundation didn't hook him up to basketball and INVENT it in the 1800s, he'd become a Physical God tyrant. There's even a Historical In-Joke with "I don't care if you have to turn a hurricane on him, do it."

SCP-2091 - A Bear and His Granddaughter

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder The Gulf.

SCP-2092 - Space Riddle

SCP-2092 is a repetitive electromagnetic signal that broadcasts an encoded image containing the approximate location of a point in outer space. The image features six objects and is hypothesized to be a schematic model of the Solar System, the largest object representing the Sun, and four other objects representing the terrestrial planets. The Foundation sent a probe to the depicted location, where they found a metallic object with a message written in multiple human languages.
  • The Reveal: The riddle that the metallic object proposed was already answered nearly 8000 years ago, and it appears the answer given was wrong if the anomalies all over Earth are meant to be "otherworldly curses" and "creatures straight from your worst nightmares".

SCP-2093 - Open Alpha

SCP-2093 is a spatial anomaly localized in the third floor drama room of a Maryland high school. Upon entering 2093, personnel are able to exit the room while remaining within the anomaly, allowing for exploration of a recreation of the school building. The recreation conforms with the size and structure of the actual school, and is populated by an array of entities appearing as students that do not appear to be sentient. An unknown number of bipedal creatures resembling a cross between bears and insects have also been found within the anomaly.
  • Alternate Universe: The ursine creatures appear to come from another version of Earth, though they prefer to call it their "home world".
  • Collective Death Glare: In the final exploration logged, the entities all stare at the Foundation agents instead of trying to act like teachers and students in an attempt to ward them away.
  • Life Simulation Game: SCP-2093 appears to be the gateway to a session of one of these.
  • Obvious Beta: In-Universe, the simulation in the anomaly appears to be riddled with bugs. They get fixed over time, but if the recovered changelog is anything to go by, it also appears to be in Perpetual Beta.
  • Uncertain Doom: The last time the Foundation has seen the ursine creatures, they were waiting in the cafeteria to be rescued by their superiors. By the next exploration, they are nowhere to be found and a barbed wire fence was erected around the school building.

SCP-2094 - Motormouth

SCP-2094 is a man of European descent, 38 years old, with several tattoos depicting circus motifs on his upper body. He communicates in a New York City dialect, and possesses exceptional manual dexterity, with particular proficiency in juggling. 2094 is the subject of a spatial anomaly originating within his oral cavity. His lower jaw and facial muscles can be pulled and stretched up to 2 meters in any direction without causing any considerable pain or injury. Additionally, he is capable of redirecting any physical matter that enters his mouth into an extradimensional organ made of anomalously elastic intestinal tissue. There appears to be no limit to the amount of matter that 2094 can store inside this space. The weight of objects carried inside the pocket has no effect on his overall weight, and neither causes 2094 discomfort nor impairs its mobility.

SCP-2095 - The Siege of Gyaros

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder In Memoria, Adytum.

SCP-2096 - Elder Care

SCP-2096 is an 81-year old Caucasian woman who has been designated a Class 3U reality bender. These reality-warping events are triggered by her current level of emotional distress, and increase in intensity in proportion to the same vector. Recorded events have been preceded by 2096 experiencing cognitive or physical impairments attributable to dementia. When she is faced with a situation where any of her functions are noticeably diminished, the ensuing reality-restructuring event alters the cognitive functions of individuals within her vicinity to replicate the impairments she is currently experiencing, most often resulting in those affected involuntarily undergoing analogues to 2096's memory loss. While the effect occurs very rapidly following the onset of distress it is not instantaneous, with delay durations reaching as high as sixty-seven seconds in recorded events.

SCP-2097 - The Perfect Foil

SCP-2097 is a metallic object with four observed forms: a fencing foil, a leaf-shaped arc, a thin sheet, and a curved plate. 2097 will transition repeatedly between these forms, with its most common appearance being the thin sheet. The transformation process is irregular and instantaneous, as high speed camera footage reveals the object changing from one form to the next apparently in between frames. A piece of paper with a written message (henceforth referred to as SCP-2097-1) would occasionally materialize next to 2097. Instances were usually written in crude English, though one was written in Mongolian. 2097-1 were later discovered to have been sent by SCP-2097-2, an entity that assumes the appearance of a Puss Moth caterpillar, identifies itself as “Shiba”, and claims to have created 2097. Shiba is able to produce high-pitched vocalizations and can communicate in Mongolian and basic English. It claims to be a minor deity serving the god Tengri, and has demonstrated detailed knowledge of the Mongol Empire. Throughout its interactions with the Foundation, Shiba has been cooperative and amicable, though it consistently expresses a desire for the presence of a man named "Juan".

SCP-2098 - Saint Simon's Day

SCP-2098 is a “holiday” known as “Saint Simon’s Day”, built from a series of anomalous phenomena and behaviors which overwrite existing human perception of a calendar date. In practice, Saint Simon’s Day behaves in a manner roughly analogous to a pathogen, infecting human perception of the date through self-replicating events. These events alter human perception of the date to varying degrees in order to sustain existing perceptive anomalies and/or propagate further events. To date, all communities experiencing a 2098 event have been located in American states and territories which do not observe Daylight Savings Time, and have been in existence as distinct civic entities no earlier than 1969. It is theorized that without intervention, 100% of the human population would perceive and "celebrate" Saint Simon's Day every calendar day within twenty-six years, resulting in an XB-Class Perceptive Restructuring Scenario.

SCP-2099 - Brain in a Jar

SCP-2099 is the brain of Jeremy Valdez, found in 2003 under a derelict warehouse in Detroit. The recovery site is a series of thirteen underground structures, some of which act as storage units containing shelves holding thousands of mechanical and electronic devices and parts. Every room has hundreds to thousands of pieces of paper on which notes are written in a fragmentary short-hand. Jeremy’s brain is kept in a jar filled with water mixed with electrolytes, sugars, green food coloring, and artificial flavoring, which keeps him alive through unknown means. He has been largely cooperative with Foundation personnel, although his answers have been of limited usefulness. SCP-2099-B are devices built by Jeremy before and after his present condition. Virtually all of them appear to be highly technologically advanced, but should not function based on current understanding of science. Several of them are used by Jeremy to interact with his environment.
  • Absent-Minded Professor: SCP-2099 is is brilliant enough to regularly create new anomalous objects at will, such as a cannon that fires ninja robots. However, he is also quite forgetful and depends on his notes to remember things.
  • Artificial Gravity: One of SCP-2099's inventions is a generator that doubles the force of gravity on all nearby objects. It was originally an Anti-Gravity generator, but he changed it by crossing out the word "Anti" that was written on it.
  • Brain in a Jar: SCP-2099 is the brain of Jeremy Valdez, which floats in a glass jar filled with water, green food coloring, artificial flavoring, sugars and electrolytes. It uses devices (such as a robot and mechanical hands) to manipulate objects.
  • Energy Weapon: SCP-2099 has invented 713 different types of laser gun, all of which he keeps in a bin labeled "713 different laser guns". He has also invented a pistol that fires out highly concentrated X-rays (i.e. an X-ray laser pistol) that is powered by two AA batteries and focused by a common quartz crystal.
  • Force Field: One of SCP-2099's inventions is a force field generator. Unfortunately the Foundation can't examine it because SCP-2099 has forgotten how to turn it off.
  • Hypno Ray: SCP-2099 created a hypnotic lens that could be used to hypnotize people.
  • Night-Vision Goggles: Another of SCP-2099's inventions is night vision goggles that work even when there's no light at all. Normal NVGs require at least a tiny amount of light to magnify.

    2100- 2149 

SCP-2100 - Tripwire

SCP-2100 is a large subterranean complex in Antarctica, believed to be extraterrestrial in origin. 2100 extends approximately 7,390m below ground with 2,718 levels, and has an approximate floor area of 738,905,600 square meters. Geological analysis of the surrounding rock indicates that it was constructed 1.25 billion years ago in its current position. 2100 perpetually broadcasts a dense stream of neutrinos toward the center of the Earth, which is then redirected at Earth's core through unknown means. Regardless of Earth's relative position and orientation, this beam maintains focus toward a fixed coordinate point located within the Center Bulge of the Milky Way.
  • Faster-Than-Light Travel: The neutrino beam is implied to be traveling at a hundred trillion times the speed of light towards the center of the galaxy. This helps explain why the destructive effects were instantaneous once the Foundation interrupted the stream.
  • Meaningful Name: Turns out the neutrino stream SCP-2100-4 was emitting was some sort of tripwire to a galactic super-weapon that the Foundation triggered by trying to move it away form the Milky Way.
  • The Stars Are Going Out: When the Foundation accidentally interrupted the neutrino stream astronomers from all around the globe reported many stars throughout the center of the Milky Way Galaxy either going supernova, turning into black holes, or disappearing without a trace. To this day the Foundation is still trying to create a cover story to explain this to the public.
  • Time Abyss: The alien facility that makes up SCP-2100 is presumed to be millions of years old.

SCP-2101 - The Imperial Army

SCP-2101 is a sphere of effect located at the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, originating roughly 8 meters below the current lowest level of the mausoleum. 2101’s anomalous effect currently triggers in all individuals who enter a 10-meter range of the object. 2101 projects speech directly into the minds of individuals, centering around attempts to free it under the promise of “riches” and “huge tracts of land”. The anomaly is guarded by the Terracotta Army (SCP-2101-1), the collection of statues depicting soldiers from the Qin Dynasty currently located on the lowest floor of the mausoleum. The statues are capable of speech and movement, but they have stated it is difficult for them to do so. Only one 2101-1 instance ever speaks at one time, doing so in a very slow and stilted manner. The Terracotta Army has claimed that they actively contain 2101 so long as they stay in their current location. Removal of 2101-1 instances has been known to induce small-scale seismic activity, measuring between 2 and 4 on the moment magnitude scale, which increases the longer the instances are kept away from the lowest floor. 2101-2 claim that 2101 is the Emperor himself, and they sacrificed themselves to contain him after he went mad with power.
  • Beethoven Was an Alien Spy: According to this SCP, Qin Shi Huangdi was a powerful telepath in addition to a tyrant, and the Terracotta Army is composed of men who turned themselves into (somewhat animate) terracotta statues to contain him.
  • Living Statue: The statues are animate, but cannot move or speak very well. Additionally, only one of them can speak at any given time.
  • Removing the Head or Destroying the Brain: Destroying an SCP-2101-1 instance's head will incapacitate it and neutralize its effect in the sealing of SCP-2101. Fortunately, repairing the statue will restore its functionality.
  • Sealed Evil in a Can: SCP-2101 is an emperor sealed away in a tomb by terracotta soldier statues. During initial recovery, he very nearly escaped by persuading the recovery team to shatter the statues, until one of them was able to convince the team to cease fire.
  • Taken for Granite: According to one of the SCP-2101-1 instances, all of the statues were originally people who voluntarily turned themselves to statues as part of a ritual to seal away SCP-2101, explaining why each instance has a unique appearance.
  • Telepathy: SCP-2101 (an imprisoned Chinese emperor) is capable of speaking directly into the minds of any nearby people, and will attempt to convince them to free it.

SCP-2102 - Got Shoggoth?

SCP-2102 is an unidentified man of indeterminate age and descent, whose body is covered in hypertrophic scars, rendering him deaf, mute, and blind. 2102's anomalous properties manifest when he suffers a puncture wound or laceration, initiating an instantaneous healing process. Though both hemostatic and inflammatory phases occur as normal, the proliferative phase of the process occurs at a greatly increased rate, and no wound contraction occurs. 2102 will continue to produce new tissue at an exponential rate unless all open wounds are successfully cauterized. Based on this information , it is estimated that the culmination of an NK-Class scenario would occur approximately four weeks post-event should full neutralization not be achieved.
  • Body Horror: SCP-2102 is a human being who underwent an experiment. Whenever he suffers any kind of wound, his body starts repairing itself at a rate a quadrillion times faster than normal. This creates large amounts of extra flesh, and he keeps on growing until his body is cauterized by flame.
  • Healing Factor: As a result of the experiment that created it, SCP-2102 can heal its wounds a quadrillion times as fast as normal. Unfortunately the process doesn't stop when the healing is completed, and the subject's body grows out of control.
  • Kill It with Fire: The only way to prevent SCP-2102 from expanding is to cauterize it with fire. The Foundation believes that SCP-2102 could be destroyed (if necessary) by the destruction of its soft tissues by flame.
  • Super-Soldier: The experiment that created SCP-2102 was an attempt by the Soviet GRU Division "P" to create a super soldier by increasing the speed at which the human body heals itself.

SCP-2103 - Thought Preserves

SCP-2103 is a glass container visually identical to an American-made Mason jar. Unlike typical Mason jars, there is a 25mm diameter hole in the center of the jar's bottom, with smooth edges that appear to be part of the original design and not created afterwards When used to hold physical objects, 2103 displays no unusual properties; items placed into the top of the jar either remain in the jar or exit through the bottom hole if they are of proper size or makeup to do so. The jar is also capable of storing a single concept or idea of its current owner at a time. When stored in this way, knowledge of the item is removed from reality. The previous owner and others cannot recall the item, and depending on the item in question may or may not be able to realize that something is missing at all. 2103 seems to have further limited reality-altering potential, as in many cases the storage of the item causes shifts in reality accordingly as if the item had never been a part of reality.

SCP-2104 - The King by the Tree

SCP-2104-A is a humanoid entity of variable appearance located inside SCP-2104-B, an extra-dimensional space that occupies an approximate geographic surface of 0.15 km2, seemingly unable to leave or act outside the area. 2104-A is able to partially control its physical appearance, usually taking the form of a child between 7 and 9 years old. Its body is covered by different kinds of organic materials and small living organisms. The entity displays a positive emotional response to interaction with children, but shows fear when approached by adults. To date, 32 entries to 2104-B have been identified and documented. Entrances are always centered on natural terrain features such as rocks or trees, and are effectively invisible to the naked eye. Entrances are normally inactive, but will activate if approached by prepubescent children. 2104-A is able to alter reality inside 2104-B to a certain extent, changing the composition of matter and considerably affecting the behavior of indigenous fauna and flora of the area. Some animals within the area have shown the ability to speak, and commonly refer to 2104-A as "The King by the Tree."
  • Offing the Offspring: SCP-2104-A used to be a living reality bender that was hung by his parents to prevent news of his growing reality warping powers from reaching the public. He now only exists in his own dimension, alternating between being alive and dead.

SCP-2105 - Programmable Occult

SCP-2105 is a DOS program called mv_sk1r.COM, compressed in a .tar.gz archive that also contains a .txt file of the same name. 2105 can be run on any operating system, despite the filetype generally only functioning on DOS. Once running, the user is offered a list of inputs, free to select multiple options. When the program is activated with all inputs filled, it generates an anomalous output that can often be interpreted as a religious ritual with some statistical anomalies. During testing, it has been found that these rituals will only be usable by the user that generated them and only while the user possesses a text copy of the ritual.

SCP-2106 - A Conspiracy of Ravens

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder Those Twisted Pines.

SCP-2107 - Diet Ghost™

SCP-2107 is a soft drink known as "Diet Ghost™", which displays anomalous properties when imbibed. Within three to seven minutes of ingestion, consumers of Diet Ghost (classified SCP-2107-A) begin to experience paranormal activity that most often falls within the colloquial expectations of an individual being haunted by a ghost or paranormal entity. The effect continues until the undetermined point of the breakdown of Diet Ghost within the subject's body, approximately one to three hours after ingestion. Research has confirmed that the intensity of the hauntings are directly proportional to the quantity of Diet Ghost imbibed.

SCP-2108 - Another Sun

SCP-2108 is a luminous object resembling a miniature star that is selectively intangible and possibly non-material, but appears similar in structure and composition to a main-sequence star of roughly one solar mass. 2108's specific properties, such as size, location, mass, luminosity, spectrum, etc., vary in poorly-understood ways. All of its properties are correlated nonlinearly with one another as well as with many other factors, believed to include current solar-wind flux, strong local magnetic fields, the movement of all crows within 13 m of the object, and the extent of the next predicted solar and lunar eclipses. Light and radiation emitted from 2108 is designated SCP-2108-A. Its spectrum varies somewhat, but always retains characteristic peaks at 663, 615, 448, and 297 nm. Intense or prolonged exposure to unmodified 2108-A causes a poorly-characterized transformative syndrome in living organisms, which are then designated SCP-2108-B. The changes present in 2108-B are believed to result, at least in part, from protein-folding interference by novel substances produced upon skin absorption of 2108-A. The precise effects vary between taxa, but generally include an increase in external pigmentation, production of novel pigments with absorption spectra related to 2108-A, and in autotrophic organisms, a novel set of photosynthetic organelles and pathways better optimized for use of 2108-A.

SCP-2109 - A Tragic Accident

SCP-2109 is a phenomenon affecting the deaths of certain people, as well as their corpses and all legal proceedings relating to the deaths. All cases affected by 2109 have been deaths by natural causes, and have a tendency to involve students and academics, particularly involved in certain fields of mathematics. In all cases, the deaths are fully acknowledged to have occurred in circumstances and/or to be the result of injuries, that would usually suggest that the cause of death was not natural, but rather of a violent nature. Despite this, all deaths affected are known to be cases of natural causes. All tested human beings will dismiss the death as natural or accidental, apparently in defiance of evidence. The reason for this discrepancy is unknown – the general consensus amongst research staff is that these deaths are subject to an infohazardous or memetic effect which the Foundation is presently unable to counter. The deaths affected by 2109 frequently coincide with the disappearance or destruction of documents authored by the deceased, as well as computers, phones and other data-storage devices used by them.
  • The Coroner Doth Protest Too Much: Invoked by the killer behind SCP-2109, who covers up their murders by spreading an antimeme that's covers up their existence and the true cause of the murders and an infohazard that makes anyone who looks into the murders to always come to the conclusion that they're tragic accidents.

SCP-2110 - Safe Haven

SCP-2110 is an abandoned two-story gingerbread cottage in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts. Whenever a subject enters 2110, the inside of the cottage will be completely furnished and repaired, with furnishings and appliances matching architecture styles commonly used in the current time period. Shortly after the subject enters, SCP-2110-1 will welcome them, as well as invite the subject over to the dining area to eat dinner with them, regardless of time of entry. 2110-1 are 7 individuals who appear in the cottage once a person enters, all but one similar in appearance to people reported missing and last seen on Martha's Vineyard. Interviews have shown that they all act in a familial structure, with age and gender determining the familial role of each individual. Although the subject may leave of their own free will, they will usually accept 2110-1's offer to eat with them. As the subject eats, they will report feeling at ease with 2110-1 and will express a desire to revisit the cottage. This will last for a time period of three days to 28 days. After two to six visits, subjects who are American-born, Brazilian-born, or belong to the Wampanoag tribe will be invited to sleep on the second floor of the cottage. When the subject goes to sleep on the second floor, all contact will be lost. The next time someone enters 2110, the subject has become another instance of 2110-1.

SCP-2111 - If You Can Read This...

SCP-2111 is a phenomenon described in a contradictory manner in a collection of four separate documents, each intended exclusively for a single branch of the Foundation.

For the Memetics Department, 2111 is an algorithm capable of generating an infinite number of novel lethal cognitive hazards derived by the Foundation from analysis of multiple unrelated cognitohazardous anomalies, adapted for the creation and maintenance of lethal cognitive weapons used for information and physical security as well as memetic packages for behavior modification vectors.

For the Antimemetics Division, 2111 is a phenomenon where a directory in the Foundation database spontaneously generates files containing both lethal cognitive hazards and anti-memetic content. These files are often of novel types, and generate at an average rate of 80 KB per month. Occasionally and unpredictably some of these files will be spontaneously deleted.

For the Counterconceptual Division, 2111 is a hostile, antimemetic entity that targets personnel under the effect of long-term amnestic drug treatment. Victims suffer significant long-term retrograde amnesia, losing between three months and twenty-one years of memory. Due to memory loss, no survivors have been able to describe the entity or the attack.

For Mobile Task Force Omega-Zero, 2111 was formerly Michelle Yu, a Foundation employee who remained as an informational entity after her death. The use of amnestics by Michelle's colleagues caused memories involving her to remain indefinitely, preventing her from moving on to the afterlife. She began attacking and killing Foundation personnel who remembered her, causing the Counterconceptual Division to notice and document the phenomenon.


  • Alliterative List: All files have the initials R.T.
  • Arc Words: "If you can read this..." and variations thereof are in the warnings that precede each file, detailing what measures you probably took to be able to read the file, and saying what will happen if you didn't take them, culminating in You Are Already Dead. Also doubles as a Title Drop.
  • Backup from Otherworld: This is what Ará Orún believes. They're the ghosts of Foundation personnel, and still do their duty by protecting the living.
  • Came Back Wrong: SCP-2111 was Agent Michelle Yu and her followers, who died and came back as ghosts. Due to mnestics preventing them from passing on, they had a Face–Heel Turn and attacked the Foundation until they were defeated.
  • Canon Welding: SCP-2111 introduces the concept of MTF Omega-0, and its sequel series What the Dead Know plays a huge role within the story of the Antimemetics Division and their war against SCP-3125.
  • Couldn't Find a Pen: The graffiti made by the ghosts uses nearby materials as paint, including normal ink, chocolate pudding, and brain tissue.
  • Deader than Dead: Agent Michelle Yu and her follower's fate. She started lashing out at everything in classic ghost horror tradition and the other ghosts formed MTF ω-0 and managed to kill her again via IWT. Their SCP-2111 file remains as a warning to those who dare try again.
  • Dead Man Writing: Ghosts can focus and create data and graffiti to communicate with the living, a process called haunting. That said, this can also result in the creation of infohazards unless it's done properly.
  • Driven to Suicide: Agent Yu drove Amos Sanchez to suicide. This backfired spectacularly, as he Came Back Strong.
  • Guardian Entity:Ará Orún styles themselves this way, and even calls themselves the saints who guard, which is fitting for them being deceased Foundation personnel.
  • Haunted Technology: Ghosts can manifest anywhere there's a terminal.
  • No-Sell: Ghosts can see infohazards without harm for some reason.
  • Posthumous Narration: The final file, as well as the subsequent What The Dead Know series.
  • "Rashomon"-Style: Four perspectives from various departments within the Foundation have different ideas on what SCP-2111 really is.
  • Remember the Dead: This is how ghosts can exist. The existence of mnestics, however, artificially prevents the dead from being forgotten. Having family or friends who know you well and are under mnestic dosage prevent you from passing on, which angered Agent Yu AKA SCP-2111, leading to her lashing out, being killed and the formation of Omega-Zero.
  • Walking Spoiler: It's hard to talk about this SCP without spoiling the existence of ghosts.
  • You Are Already Dead: The Framing Device for the story is this, and is why "you" can see every point of view from every division, and pretty much everything else within the Foundation. Hell, the trope name is even said word for word.

SCP-2112 - And the Meek Shall Inherit the Earth

SCP-2112 is a memetic phenomenon associated with the Canadian prog-rock band Rush, specifically present on three limited-release editions of their 1975 album Caress of Steel. 2112's primary anomalous effect manifests when an affected disc is listened to in its entirety by a person who identifies as a fan of Rush and possesses any level of experience in playing electric guitar, electric bass, or drums. Exposed individuals will become obsessed with the idea of establishing a "tribute band" dedicated to performing cover versions of Rush songs in public, regardless of their level of musical experience or current occupation or membership in other bands. 2112 infectees have been noted to go to any lengths available to achieve this goal, including resigning from their job, relocating to another part of the world, selling off major possessions in order to acquire instruments or equipment, or deliberately exposing others to 2112 in an attempt to create potential bandmates. In the event that three infectees are successful in establishing a group, they will begin to seek out any venue that will allow them to perform in public and will do so as often as possible, performing sets composed entirely of Rush music in their original arrangements. The music produced by infectees during live performances additionally serves to propagate 2112 to any persons exposed to it.
  • Author Tract: The entire SCP is essentially an attack on the concept of the Cover Version.
  • It's the Same, Now It Sucks!: Invoked in the Project Research Manager's memo:
    Man is a wonderfully creative animal and has developed a myriad of ways of expressing his thoughts and emotions - through poetry, dance, film, the written word, theatre, painting, sculpture, video games, even internet memes. We run the risk of every one of these mediums - every single last one of them - disappearing from our common experience, forever, in favor of thousands and millions of mediocre everymen performing the exact same songs over and over again.
  • The Virus: Anyone that listens to the entirety of the affected Rush albums becomes infected (they wish to create a tribute band to perform cover versions of their songs), and anyone who listens to these covers for 15-20 minutes also becomes infected.

SCP-2113 - Haunted Liopleurodon Skull

SCP-2113 are the fragments of the incomplete fossilized skull of a Liopleurodon, which is associated with a large, insubstantial entity designated SCP-2113-01. The entity is actively mobile and faintly luminescent, with an oblong shape that tapers to a blunt point near its front. While normally relatively docile, the entity has repeatedly displayed outbursts of violent activity, resulting in mild telekinetic and electromagnetic disturbances. When approached by a human in a docile state, 2113-01 will vanish and not reappear for a period usually lasting four to nine hours. Sporadically, 2113-01 will become aggressive towards living biological entities approaching its containment. In an aggressive state, 2113-01 will remain suspended still in the air for periods of twenty minutes to two hours at a time, moving rapidly to ‘bite’ prey targets that it detects within ten meters of its location. Targets 'bitten' by the entity report immediate visual, aural, and tactile hallucinations, which typically last for a period of fifteen to twenty minutes. Experiences are relatively consistent between victims, with a majority reporting that they found themselves existing as a large animal within a warm aquatic environment. Various activities have been reported, including hunting, territorial disputes, and intentional beaching for an unknown reason.

SCP-2114 - Technological Rodents

SCP-2114 is a colony of rats which appear physically identical to the common white laboratory rat, and display normal behavior for their species. When introduced to any sort of mechanism with complex moving parts, the rats will begin to examine it via sight, taste, and touch. After an "examination period" of 5-10 minutes, the instances will proceed to disassemble the mechanism, unscrewing screws and bolts, prying apart casings, disconnecting wires, and otherwise undoing all connections. 2114 have been observed to use the minimum amount of force necessary to disassemble the target mechanism, and will cooperate to disassemble the target mechanism, displaying unusual levels of coordination, thus enabling them to manipulate objects too large and complex for a single rat. Once the target mechanism has been disassembled, all present instances will examine the individual components with noses, paws, tongues and vibrissae, passing them back and forth among each other. Once the secondary examination period has been completed, 2114 will proceed to reassemble the target mechanism. As with the disassembly process, all present instances will work together to reattach wires, insert pegs, and otherwise return the mechanism to its original state. Once the target mechanism has been reassembled to the best of their ability, the rats will appear to lose interest and resume normal rodent behavior.

SCP-2115 - Meet Other People

SCP-2115 is a website which functions similarly to non-anomalous dating sites, allowing the users to create a profile in which they can include information such as species, gender, biography, and method of reproduction. The profile will be automatically created once the users have completed the application form, but only if the whole application is filled. SCP-2115-1 is the designation given to the other users of the website; sapient entities of unknown, presumably extradimensional origin, and vary greatly in appearance. They claim to use 2115 for various intentions, mostly in the attempt to pursue a romantic and/or sexual relationship with one or more individuals. Should a user successfully enter in a relationship with an instance of 2115-1, they will be able to send them a "meet" request. Should said instance accept, it will manifest within 25 seconds to 1 week, approximately 2m in front of the user. Following a time period of 6 hours, the entities will de-manifest.
  • Alternate Universe: SCP-2115-1-62 is a human female that appears to come from one. She can speak and understand English, but she does not know what the word "president" means and makes historical claims that are wildly different from our recorded history.
  • One-Night-Stand Pregnancy: One of the SCP-2115-1 entities appears to have gotten pregnant after interacting with one of the D-Class and left their baby in that D-Class's living quarters to be taken care of.

SCP-2116 - Lonely Ragdoll

SCP-2116 is a child's doll manufactured sometime in the mid-19th Century. The toy is dressed in a simple red cotton dress with cloth shoes and garments consistent with 19th Century garb. The head is constructed of standard bisque porcelain and painted to resemble an adult female. If 2116 is further than 10 meters from a human female (SCP-2116-1) for longer than 5 minutes, its anomalous property will manifest as an alteration to reality within a 1 meter radius centered on itself. The environment, decor, ambient temperature, and furnishings become altered to be more attractive to a prepubescent girl. For every hour that 2116 is not in the possession of 2116-1, the region of altered reality expands by 1 meter, and 2116-1 will regress to a young child.

SCP-2117 - The Stolen Solidarity

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder Stealing Solidarity.

SCP-2118 - The Lost Child

SCP-2118 is a young girl with orange hair and light gray eyes, as well as a scar on her right cheek in the shape of an open parenthesis. She communicates primarily through ASL and occasionally through writing, though she is capable of producing coherent speech. Her anomalous properties manifest when she is exposed to a parent who has lost their child. In these instances, 2118 speaks in a voice reflecting the age and gender of the deceased child (hereafter referred to as SCP-2118-01) at time of death, typically the words and sounds the child uttered at the time of death. She is aware of her speech and vocal patterns, as well as the psychological distress they cause the parent, signing various apologies and platitudes even as she continues speaking.
  • Creepy Child: She's a little girl who speaks in the voices of dead children. Yeah, she's pretty creepy. She's not dangerous or malicious though.
  • Mouth Stitched Shut: She once glued her own lips together to stop herself from speaking in her late brother's voice, as it was traumatizing her mother.
  • The Quiet One: Invoked. She has to communicate with American sign language.
  • Voice Changeling: When she's in the presence of a parent whose child has died, she speaks in the voice of that dead child.

SCP-2119 - Transmitting Parasite

SCP-2119 is a parasitic organism that embeds itself in the corpus callosum of human subjects. Specimens are gray in color and possess a segmented body, six multi-jointed legs, and antennae-like protrusions from the head and abdomen. On the underside of each specimen are six barbed hooks that it uses to attach itself to its host's brain. Instances of 2119 contain organic material similar to a field cricket, as well as silicon components of an unknown nature and platinum wiring. When in the vicinity of 2119, human beings not wearing Hazardous Material Suits will show marked drowsiness and lose consciousness in 12 minutes. Once the individual is unconscious, specimens will enter the subject's head via the nostrils or ear canal. Once embedded in a host, 2119 will broadcast a 514.1875 MHz radio signal with a range of approximately 3 km consisting of a tone lasting .05 seconds at two second intervals. Once a connection has been established, specimens will transmit a continuous stream of tones of variable lengths between instances, ranging from 70 to 1305 Hz, with wavelengths ranging from 480 cm to 25 cm. To date, any attempts to remove 2119 from its host or deactivate it through non-invasive means have resulted in the immediate cessation of all of the host's electrical neurological activity.

SCP-2120 - Damage Control

SCP-2120 are anomalous naval vessels that randomly appear in an area roughly 500 km in diameter near the island of Bermuda. 2120 instances seemingly materialize approximately 1.7 km below the ocean surface before rapidly ascending to sea level, where they come to rest. Along with being thoroughly flooded, the vessels occasionally show signs of external distress. 2120 vary in model, ranging Phoenician triremes to 18th century Ships-of-the-Line to modern aircraft carriers. Regardless of their construction, all recovered instances have been fitted with a number of advanced technologies, the majority of which are in various states of disrepair.
  • Alternate Universe: SCP-2120 appears to come from one where instead of the United States of America, there is the Confederate Socialist Colonies of the New World. And while Boeing still exists in that universe, they deal with ships instead of jets and are called "Boeing Aquatics".
  • Landfill Beyond the Stars: The SCP-2120 ships were transported from their universe to the Foundation's in an attempt to get rid of experimental ships that would have gotten their military users in trouble for war crimes.
  • Mechanical Animals: SCP-2120-13 appears to be giant ship with tentacles that resembles an octopus.

SCP-2121 - Gods' Noose

SCP-2121 is a noose composed of a variety of fleshy tissues resistant to all attempts to acquire samples, but visually appear to be composed of ligaments, tendons, intestine, and a single 1.3 meter tongue tied and woven together into a single rope, which is itself tied in a traditional hangman's knot. If 2121 is not used to hang a qualifying individual at least once every lunar month, it will begin to emit a chaotic noise composed of screaming, moans of pain, and seemingly panicked vocalizations in a variety of unidentified languages. This noise will steadily increase to a maximum of 137 dB over the course of 24 hours and will not cease until a qualifying individual is hanged. The noise also has a telepathic component and can be clearly heard by any sapient being. Any individuals who actively possess faith in any religious belief will become increasingly despondent as the length of exposure increases, and will attempt to commit suicide via hanging at the earliest possible time. Qualified subjects hanged using 2121 will remain conscious for an average of 3.7 minutes longer than expected by use of a non-anomalous noose and remain capable of speech for the entire duration prior to loss of consciousness. Vocalizations are exclusively of a religious nature and include wails of shock and despair over the apparent deaths of a variety of divine figures, curses against and insults towards an unidentified and unnamed deific figure, and pleas of mercy towards the same figure.

SCP-2122 - The Black Hole

SCP-2122 is an interrogation room at Site-48 housing several anomalous electronic devices (a fluorescent light fixture, an LED message board, and a device that does not produce heat or sound with attached headphones, collectively designated SCP-2122-1). 2122's primary anomalous properties will activate when exactly two individuals are present, the door is closed, and 2122-1 are powered and operational. When active, 2122 becomes completely impenetrable to all physical force, radiation, sound, etc. from both the inside and outside, such that observation and intrusion are impossible until one subject (the interrogator) chooses to open the door. The interrogator will become capable of conscious reality alteration, so long as 2122-1 remains operational and the other subject (the interrogatee) is alive. The extent of the interrogator's reality bending capacity within 2122 is limited by any form of accountability for actions performed in the room.

SCP-2123 - I Accidentally The Whole Universe

SCP-2123 is a large particle accelerator in Waxahachie, Texas, consisting of an 11m long linear accelerator, a synchrotron ring measuring 616m in circumference, and a collider ring measuring 1 km in circumference. Normal operation of the device releases significant amounts of ionizing radiation, with levels exceeding 100 Gy/hr within the containment enclosure. The accelerator’s electromagnets exhibit strengths of 100-800T. The composition of the magnets, and exactly how such high field strengths are produced, are currently unknown. 2123 will undergo an Excursion Event at an average rate of once every two weeks. During these events, collision energies and emitted levels of radiation increase between 10 and 100 times normal levels. The median duration of Excursion Events is approximately 30 seconds, with the longest observed event lasting 127 seconds.
  • Antimatter: The Excursion Events flip the entire universe's charge and polarity (CP) every two weeks. A small percentage of the (anti)matter always remains unchanged due to CP violation, and annihilation ensues. So far, a few yottagrams (that is, a few quintillion metric tons; for context, Earth's oceans weigh 1.4 Yg while Pluto's moon Charon weighs 1.5 Yg) of matter have been annihilated in the Excursion Events.
  • Blank Book: After 3 OSHA inspectors who were visiting 2123 died from radiation exposure in December 2003, the Foundation discovered that all the physical and digital records were blank.
  • The End of the World as We Know It: The flow of entropy is reversed by "Excursion Events" that happen every two weeks inside 2123.
  • Hoist by His Own Petard: The makers of 2123, Fix-Hex Inc., apparently annihilated themselves along with all their records in an accident sometime prior to September 2003. Later on, in 2008, this happened to Foundation doctor James Leary during an Excursion Event.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: In 2007, the Foundation performed some experiments which accidentally started the Excursion Events. The following year, one of those events killed Dr. Leary.
  • Shown Their Work: It involves tons of technical discussions about quantum anomalies in a supercollider and the frightening implications of it.

SCP-2124 - Conceptual Knife

SCP-2124 is a greasy, moldy, large-sized pizza box made out of double-layered brown cardboard. Written in black ink upon the top of the box is the message “CAREFUL! INVISIBLE KNIFE IN BOX”. The interior of 2124 appears to be empty to standard inspection. All non-human interaction with the interior produces results consistent with an empty box. A human being attempting to consciously “find” or “pick up” the knife written about on the box’s lid is successful in finding such an object, designated SCP-2124-1. The object has no detectable weight or presence, other than the word of the subject holding the instance that they are indeed holding the object. When instructed to cut objects using 2124-1, the object is cut in a manner consistent with a sharp kitchen knife.

SCP-2125 - The Hanging Tree

SCP-2125 is a white oak tree in a New York forest with the letters "A" and "D" carved in its trunk, as well as several branches extending parallel to the ground. All branches are covered in an unknown species of vine that appears to be a different organism than the tree itself, though they terminate in its bark. The vines are wrapped around the branches and end in loops that hang off of the branches. When a man enters the area beneath any branch of 2125, a previously-inanimate vine from the branch will uncoil and seize them by wrapping its looped end around the neck. The subject will then be lifted by the vine and suspended until they die of asphyxiation. After the subject is deceased, the vine will release the body and return to an inactive state.

SCP-2126 - Letter from Grandma

SCP-2126 is a letter written in blue ink on a ruled sheet of P4 paper, addressed to a person identified as “Davey” and appearing to be written by said person’s grandmother. When the letter is read aloud from beginning to end, the reader’s hair follicles will immediately cease normal function and begin to pull hairs downward through the dermis and into adjacent tissues. Once there is no hair above a particular follicle, the follicle will begin contributing cells to the inward-growing hair. This process proceeds at a rate of 1.25 cm per month, approximating the average rate of hair growth. Autopsies have shown that the inverted hairs will grow uninhibited even through particularly dense tissues such as cartilage and bone. Following greatly reduced mobility caused by hair growing through muscle and nerve tissue, death occurs once vital organs are sufficiently penetrated.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: Having your bones and organs be completely wound up in hair over a long period of time is not a good way to go out.

SCP-2127 - Hinterkai-fun!

SCP-2127 is a sheet of paper that sits on the ledge of a memorial shrine in Kaifeck, Germany. The words “Who dunnit!?” are printed on the paper in the Comic Sans MS font. When a subject or pair of subjects pick up 2127, they are instantaneously transported to SCP-2127-1, a replica of the farmstead Hinterkaifeck and the surrounding towns devoid of human life, with the exception of the bodies of six unnamed people. Records show that the bodies belong to a family of five and their maid, who were killed in Hinterkaifeck on March 31st, 1922. Calendars within the farmhouse show the date to be April 1st, pointing to 2127-1 taking place the day after the killings. It is worth noting that the shrine that 2127 rests upon while inactive is dedicated to the family in question. After 24 hours within 2127-1, subjects will be returned to the shrine, along with a card reading “Maybe next time, detective!”
  • The Unreveal: Agents Jackson and Keller manage to find the killer behind the Hinterkaifeck murders, but Keller was killed shortly afterwards and Jackson was injured to the point where he requires intensive therapy and is in no condition to give reliable information. The videotapes of the agents' excursion do show the killer on screen for a brief moment, but the poor quality of the tapes makes impossible to tell who it is.

SCP-2128 - The Liar's Cradle

SCP-2128 is a vaulted stone furnace in the ruins of a castle, created by agents of the Brazen Heart in the late ninth century CE as a torture/execution device, given the name "The Liars' Cradle". When a human subject fully enters 2128 and makes a true statement, nothing will happen. If their spoken statement should be a lie, the human subject will be completely incinerated by unknown means. The Cradle has displayed knowledge on a true/false basis of highly classified and previously unknown information.
  • Big Eater: If the "Subjective Opinion" log is of any indication:
    The Liars' Cradle's hunger can never be satiated, no matter how full it becomes. TRUE
  • Black Comedy:
    D-9224: Golden retrievers are cute. FALSE
    [D-9224 is incinerated]
    D-9225: Golden retrievers are ugly. FALSE
    [D-9225 is incinerated]
    D-9226: Golden retrievers are tasty. TRUE Wait, what? That's fuckin' nasty. FALSE
    [D-9226 is incinerated]
  • Do Not Call Me "Paul": It incinerated one D-class for referring to it using its SCP designation instead of "The Liar's Cradle".
  • Do Not Taunt Cthulhu: Continued tests show that the furnace is actually sentient and really enjoys the sensation of burning living human flesh inside it. After being given several statements in a row in the vein of "The Liar's Cradle would love to burn my delicious flesh right now" which it had to answer true to, to its own increasing anger, the next person who entered and gave the simple statement "The Earth is round.", SCP-2128 chooses to interpret "Earth" as meaning soil rather than planet and incinerates the person inside particularly slowly and painfully.
  • Driven to Suicide: It caused one D-class to commit suicide by shooting himself when he stated that the SCP wouldn't physically harm him.
  • Everyone Has Standards: Its Knight Templar cultist creators abandoned it after they found it couldn't tell whether someone was truly lying or simply mistaken about a fact.
  • Exact Words: In the "Pinocchio Paradox" log, it circumvents the D-class personnels' statements this way. For instance, when one stated that the SCP wouldn't kill him then and there, it only partially burned and disfigured him in response.
  • It Can Think: A lot of the testing logs indicate that the SCP is sentient and very hungry.
  • Jackass Genie: It chooses to interpret the statement "The Earth is round" as "earth" meaning soil or dirt and incinerates the person inside (particularly slowly and painfully in this case because this statement followed several taunting ones which it had to answer true to, to its own anger).
  • Kill It with Fire: Its primary method of killing anyone that makes an inaccurate statement while inside it is burning them alive.
  • Sadist: If the "Subjective Opinion" log is of any indication:
    The crackling of fire upon boiling drips of fat and rapidly cauterizing flesh gives the Liars' Cradle pleasure. TRUE

SCP-2129 - Hot-Blooded Snake

SCP-2129 is an invisible entity manifesting as a continuous stream of explosions. It possesses the ability to levitate and fly in three dimensions, and is able to reach speeds of up to 152 kilometers per hour. Detonations happen continuously while the creature is moving, with a general frequency of two per second. The explosions' energy output has been estimated to be the equivalent of 1.2 tons of TNT. Thermal cameras show an oblong, serpentine body approximately a meter long in the absence of the explosions. 2129 continuously produces these explosions until it has consumed all available air, after which it will enter a dormant state and only resume activity when more oxygen is available. 2129 also appears to possess sapience, modulating the strength and length of the explosions to communicate in Portuguese using a rough version of Morse code. Extended conversations have revealed that 2129 displays a generally cooperative but melancholic demeanor, mostly expressing frustration concerning its containment.

SCP-2130 - Office Furniture

SCP-2130 is a collection of office furniture which affects brain function in humans near a specific item. The magnitude of this effect varies based on the subject's underlying personality and the number of items in proximity, but it is characterized by increased impulsiveness, reduced social inhibitions, and inaccurate perception of risk. This is particularly evident in the subject's assessment of the value of human life and health. 2130 instances operate by emitting kappa radiation in a form which interferes with the subject's neural oscillation. While other psionic and cognitive anomalies also produce kappa radiation as a benign secondary effect, the method by which 2130 generates such radiation is unknown. The anomalous effect is not permanent, and removal of the affected items will result in the subject's behavior returning to normal.

SCP-2131 - Antipope

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder The Gulf.

SCP-2132 - Most Dangerous Fighting Exhibition and Obstacle Resort

SCP-2132 is a radio station functioning out of an anomalous range as a numbers station, with a male child's voice reciting numbers and a list of colors. The voice is hypothesized to be synthesized due to various vocal cues (lack of audible breathing, same tone maintained throughout, etc.). Within the anomalous range, 2132 largely functions as a music station, continuously playing songs from the 1920s-1950s. SCP-2132-01 is a farmhouse and radio tower from which 2132 emanates, operating in the countryside of Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma. Every Friday, the radio station’s music will be swapped with a woman’s voice ordering all “guests” in the vicinity to enter. Once there, all doors will lock for one hour before reopening. Supplies will materialize within the hall closet located near the exit, being the only things other than their clothes the residents will be able to take into the game cycle. The supplies always contain a first-aid kit, map, compass, and thermometer. Once the supplies have been collected, the exit then swings open. If the residents do not immediately step out, the words "Get Home Safe" are continually repeated. If residents still have not stepped outside, the game cycle will begin prematurely and an entity will enter the house to forcibly eject them. Upon crossing the threshold, residents are transported to a new climate containing traps, puzzles, and exaggerated, hostile creatures. The only consistency between environments is a large stopwatch-style digital display projected in the sky, the goal of the game cycle being to locate 2132-01 and return inside by the time the stopwatch reaches 0.
  • Numbers Stations: Every 5-6 hours, SCP-2132 broadcasts the artificially created voice of a male child reciting numbers and a list of colors. The reading is different each time. Between the numbers/colors readings the station broadcasts songs from the 1920s through the 1950s.
  • Powered by a Forsaken Child: The game scenarios the contestants are put through are thought up by a child kidnapped by Marshall, Carter and Dark.

SCP-2133 - Our Land, Our Bondage

SCP-2133 is an unnamed village in the Northern Urals with an estimated population of fifty, although the exact number has been difficult to record. Various microbial pathogens have been discovered within the vicinity of 2133, some of which were previously unknown. The inhabitants of 2133, referred to as SCP-2133-1, display a relative resistance to disease. While symptoms develop as per ordinary disease progression, resulting in disfigurement and debilitation, death is comparatively rare. 2133-1 have shown themselves to be either unwilling or unable to leave 2133. The most significant anomaly associated with 2133-1 is a form of reincarnation. Deceased instances will rapidly decay and, on the night of the first new moon, are harvested from the fields as infants. 2133-1 retain the memories and appearance of previous incarnations. The villagers’ lifestyle has been noted to be similar to that of 14th century peasant communes, and they display acute technophobia. 2133-1 refer to their religion as the Church of the Red Harvest, whose doctrine and mythology remain poorly understood. SCP-2133-2 are prehensile organic structures found throughout 2133, being dark red in color with a tentaculoid shape. 2133-2 only appear to move to attack intruding personnel or to allow the entrance of 2133-1 instances into the local church, which it completely engulfs.

SCP-2134 - Shelter

SCP-2134 is a 54-year-old man who possesses a number of modifications to his neck and face. Designs cut into the majority of his skin pose a health risk to humans. Viewing any design is invariably fatal, as death from degradation of neural pathways will manifest within 7 hours. The markings on 2134's face exhibit an accelerated version of this effect, with death occurring in one hour. These effects are memetic in nature, and have been replicated with recreations of the designs. 2134's voice exhibits a secondary memetic effect. Exposed humans will invariably be compelled to view 2134 and will attempt to persuade others to do the same. 2134 has extensive classified knowledge regarding the Foundation, anomalous objects, and the subject of memetics. He will exhibit hostile behavior when removed from containment for any reason, attempting to affect personnel with his anomalous properties until confident that he will be returned to solitary confinement.
  • Insane Troll Logic: Dr. Konstantin Krupin turned himself into SCP-2134 after learning about SCP-181's probability manipulating abilities and his current containment in solitary confinement. He believes that since SCP-181 makes himself luckier at the expense of everything around him getting unluckier, that must mean solitary confinement is the best thing to ever happen to him.

SCP-2135 - 91st Street Station

SCP-2135 is the former 91st Street Station of the New York City Subway System, closed after platform expansion on the 96th Street Station rendered it impractical. 2135's anomalous properties manifest twice a week at unpredictable intervals, during which a train car (hereafter SCP-2135-A), will stop at the station for approximately fifteen seconds. Should any subject board the train during this time, they will remain in a state of transit for approximately fifteen minutes, unable to exit the train. After fifteen minutes have elapsed, the train will come to a halt, and subjects will arrive within SCP-2135-B, a replica of Manhattan as it appeared on February 1st, 1959. Any area beyond the island is rendered inaccessible by a white void, and subjects attempting to leave will be blocked by an impermeable barrier. SCP-2135-C are faceless humanoid entities that inhabit 2135-B. Instances lack eyes, noses, and mouths, but otherwise are replicas of people that were in Manhattan in 1959. Despite their lack of facial features, they appear capable of sight and scent, and can interact with subjects if prompted via blank canvas boards and markers they carry at all times.Should a subject enter 2135-B with any items that were manufactured after February 1959, or exhibit speech patterns or other mannerisms anachronistic to the period upon exiting the station, 2135-C will stop in place and continuously "stare" at the subject until they leave. While 2135-C do not exhibit any hostile intent, subjects will generally express a strong desire to leave if they enter this state, citing discomfort and unease.
  • The Blank: The people inhabiting the alternate Manhattan, designated SCP-2135-C, are distinguished by their lack of eyes, noses, and mouths, although they're apparently still capable of sight and scent.

SCP-2136 - An Utterly Driven Scientist

SCP-2136 is a pathogen capable of infecting humans, transmitted by an uninfected human's visual perception of an infected host. Upon infection, the pathogen migrates to the host's motor neurons, producing an effect (SCP-2136-A) which activates when the infected subject is out of another host’s line of sight. The characteristic symptoms of 2136-A are a sudden stiffening of the unobserved subject's muscles, followed by complete immobility. Re-observation by another host will reverse the symptoms, allowing the subject to regain muscle control. Death of an unobserved subject will occur within 5 minutes due to respiratory and circulatory failure. Deceased hosts cease to be infectious, and study of deceased hosts has revealed anomalous organelles within neural cells.
  • And I Must Scream: Over time, the pathogen will start to take control of the victim's body, with the victim being conscious and aware the entire time.

SCP-2137 - The Forensic Ghost of Tupac Shakur

SCP-2137 is a compact disc copy of Tupac Shakur's 1995 album Me Against the World. The case and liner notes have been determined to have no anomalous qualities, and the physical makeup and encoding of the disk appear completely normal. Upon playing "Heavy In The Game," the listener will encounter an instance of SCP-2137-1, which takes the form of a completely different, spontaneously-generated, professionally-produced song featuring Tupac. Though each song is unique, they share certain commonalities in terms of subject matter. The central focus of the song invariably addresses a murder or series of murders, giving necessary evidence and information to correctly identify and prosecute the killer, even going so far as to specify prosecutors or recommend vigilante justice. The voice on the songs, identified as SCP-2137-2, matches cleanly through advanced audio analysis to that of Tupac, who died over a year before the recovery of 2137. When the crimes have been addressed and the guilty parties brought to light, 2137-1 is immediately replaced by a new instance.

This SCP's article has the distinction of being written by Max Landis.


SCP-2138 - Secrets, secrets are no fun...

SCP-2138 is an odorless, light-blue gaseous substance of unknown composition, generated as a by-product of Dr Isaacs' attempts to synthesize a less-harmful alternative to truth serums in Foundation field work. The substance is chemically inert with normal atmospheric gasses, is not flammable, and exhibits a rapid rate of diffusion. Exposure and inhalation of 2138 results in no harmful physical effects on human subjects, but those exposed to the substance exhibit an anomalous effect referred to as SCP-2138-A. 2138-A consists of the appearance of a dark rectangular shape above the subject's head. The shape displays a series of statements in bright yellow text, which will repeat over time. Each statement discloses information known to the subject alone, or to the subject and a limited set of others. The effect appears to be permanent, although a change in the subject's knowledge will affect the content of the statements displayed. 2138-A is invisible to the subject, and attempts to interact with it physically appear to be harmful to them.
  • Downer Ending: Dr. Isaacs inadvertantly got affected by the residual SCP-2138 that came out of D-13962's mouth while doing CPR on him and has to get a total personality rewrite due to knowing sensitive information. He then gets reassigned as a D-Class and dies while trying to intervene in a riot due to SCP-2138's deadly side effect.
  • Truth Serums: SCP-2138 is the byproduct of an attempt to create these. It works as an effective truth serum itself.

SCP-2139 - Indeterminate object or objects, or possibly a memetic effect of some kind

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder The Gulf.

SCP-2140 - Retroconverter

SCP-2140 is an image derived through Daevite symbols found in an Uzbeki dig site. 100% of people who view 2140 (regardless of medium) are perceived as loyal Foundation personnel with high clearance. These subjects invariably have highly corroborated personal histories consistent with these profiles. The presence of corroborating physical evidence supports the hypothesis that this is a retroactive alteration to personal history such that the person will always have been a loyal Foundation employee with appropriate clearance.
  • Arc Number: Its number ends in 140, and it's strongly implied to be related SCP-140.
  • Imported Alien Phlebotinum: It's a Thaumiel-class object, meaning that it's an anomaly that the Foundation is not merely containing but is actively using for its own benefit. It was reverse-engineered from SCP-2140-D, an artifact dug up under Uzbekistan which is strongly implied to be of Daevite origin.
  • Retconjuration: It's an image that ensures whoever looks at it is a loyal Foundation employee of Level 2 security clearance or higher. It will rewrite the past to make this so, if necessary.

SCP-2141 - Primordial Wyrm

SCP-2141 is an immense earthworm-like creature located within a derelict tunnel near the Adirondack Mountains. Its dimensions exceed those of the tunnel, with an average diameter of 8.5 m and a currently undefined length. It is theorized that 2141 is a spatial anomaly, able to “condense” its body within the tunnel in order to compensate for its massive size. 2141 periodically emerges from a chasm of unknown depth estimated 200 m beyond the entrance of the tunnel between intervals of 18 days. Upon emergence, 2141 deposits SCP-2141-1, a female humanoid disfigured and/or mutated by the creature via extensive exposure, at approximately 50 m within the tunnel. 2141-1’s most prominent features include a severely bloated abdomen as well as a viscous coating of pale yellow fluid. To achieve displacement, 2141-1 aligns herself face-up and parallel to surfaces upon which she “slithers,” using this fluid to mitigate frictional forces. This fluid also bestows her increased resistance to physical trauma, allowing the anomaly in one event to survive and make limited recovery from lower body amputation.
  • Monster Is a Mommy: SCP-2141 is a mother, and it's using the body of a human woman to gestate its young.
  • Sand Worm: SCP-2141 is a giant worm-like creature at least several kilometers long. It lives inside an underground tunnel of unknown length.

SCP-2142 - Just Clap Your Hands

SCP-2142 are CDs, records, and cassette tapes which induce an anomalous psychological disorder known as the "Lavinia Complex”. Listeners suffering from the Lavinia Complex invariably dream about consuming their own hands, including all attendant flesh, tendons, and muscular tissue. Subjects describe the dreams as vivid and unsettling, and those suffering from the complex also report anxiety, insomnia, and hypnophobia, tending to dread sleeping for any length of time.

SCP-2143 - Singin' in the Rain

SCP-2143 is a 30-year-old Greek man who possesses extreme proficiency with all musical instruments, an eidetic memory for an unknown number of songs, and a singing voice described as enjoyable to listen to. Once per day, 2143 will perform a random song with SCP-2143-2, a lyre with the ability to immediately relocate to his position regardless of distance, and will fail to produce sound if played by anyone other than him. As 2143 plays his music, an anomalous stratocumulus cloud (SCP-2143-3) will form directly above him, proceeding to rain objects thematically linked to his current song. If prevented from performing for more than a day, 2143's health and morale will drop drastically. At the same time, personnel who come within a three meter radius of 2143 will be afflicted by an unknown disease. Each day 2143 is prevented from performing, the area of effect will double in size.

SCP-2144 - Misconception of a Brainchild

SCP-2144 is a creature resembling a domestic cat, which does not possess a reproductive system despite the lack of neutering indications. Only humans are capable of interacting with 2144, as other animal species are unable to detect or recognise its existence. While in an open space, the creature is animate despite lacking a heartbeat and not requiring nutrition or respiration. In this state, its image cannot be captured on photographs or video, requiring direct observation by a human to perceive it. Similarly, sounds produced by it can only be heard directly by a human observer and are unable to be recorded. In terms of behavior, 2144 is shown to be lively while in an open space and typically moves about whenever it can, tending to avoid approaching doors, windows, or similar openings in the vicinity. In an enclosed space, the creature ceases all movement and remains immobile until it is removed. During this state, trace amounts of beta particles and gamma radiation are detected within the enclosed space. Hydrogen cyanide is also spontaneously generated via transmutation, aided by the ionizing radiation generated.

SCP-2145 - Seven Extra Seasons

SCP-2145 are a group of entities which identically resemble the cast of Seinfeld as they appeared in 1998, existing separately from the actors who portrayed them and evidently unable to age. The entities reside in New York City and cause the occurrence of "Seinfeld-like" events, which involve the macro-scale modification of probability affecting the actions of all individuals within their immediate vicinity, leading to drastically increased rates of coincidence, synchronicity, and miscommunication. These rates are increased further for individuals who interact with the entities, who exhibit behavioral modifications involving decreased empathy, malignant narcissism, and general amorality. Foundation dramaturges and critical theorists have shown that these events are parametrically consistent with the scenarios portrayed in episodes of the series, and posit that they are phenomenologically indistinguishable from "living in the show".
  • Playing Both Sides: To properly contain SCP-2145 while minimizing exposure to its probability and behavior manipulating effects, the Foundation recruited both the Global Occult Coalition and the Unusual Incidents Unit for help without telling them of their involvement with both parties and gave them incomplete information, with the resulting chaos and conflict being intended consequences.
  • Sadist Show: SCP-2145 invokes this by making anyone that interacts with the entities completely unsympathetic to their misfortunes.

SCP-2146 - The Space Whale

SCP-2146 is the frozen corpse of an adult bowhead whale in Medium Earth Orbit, possessing a circular orbital with an inclination of 146 degrees, and an orbital period of 19.6 hours. While its gender is presently unknown, it is statistically more likely to be a female. The corpse has suffered significant corrosion from micro-impacts, and is deeply cracked in a manner consistent with limited heat exchange and radiation exposure typical in a vacuum. Once every Synodic Lunar month, 2146 begins broadcasting radio signals, presently designated SCP-2146-1. These broadcasts range in duration from 2.5 to 18 minutes, and vary widely in both content and format. Some appear to be documentaries, others appear to be science fiction dramas, others seem to be children's shows, and others are songs or poems. These broadcasts only feature an audio track, and in every case feature an entity presently referred to as SCP-2146-2, who narrates, acts in, or sings the content of 2146-1. The transmissions often feature unusual and occasionally disturbing content, but 2146-2 is always cheerful to the point of jocularity in each broadcast. The transmissions contain one other unifying feature: in every case, the contents deal with a “space whale,” with alternating features, motivations, and characterization which change with each broadcast.
  • Dissonant Serenity: The radio broadcasts it produces (designate SCP-2146-1) feature unusual or even disturbing content; however, SCP-2146-2 (a voice in each broadcast) is always cheerful.
  • Exactly What It Says on the Tin: It's the frozen corpse of a whale that's orbiting the Earth.
  • Posthumous Character: The whale itself is dead, but its corpse is generating radio broadcasts once every month.

SCP-2147 - Neverglades

SCP-2147 is a displaced section of the Florida Everglades located inside a three-story suburban house in Ohio, respectively designated SCP-2147-A and SCP-2147-B. 2147-A conforms to the spatial structure and boundaries of 2147-B's interior, and is present in all areas and structures of the house, including plumbing, heating ducts, crawlspaces and gas lines. This has resulted in irregularities such as a pit of quicksand on the second story which has no outlet, several square meters of silt and dirt filling the attic, and the living room being filled entirely with swamp water of an unknown depth. While the swamp fauna within is free to leave the house, the flora shows an inability to grow past the bottom step of the front porch, anomalously terminating at this point.

SCP-2148 - Mr. Stripes

See Characters.SCP Foundation Misters.

SCP-2149 - A Grinder of Metal

SCP-2149 is a Universal Model 1 meat grinder with a cylinder of unknown material fused to it and replacing the hand crank via unknown means. The grinding auger continually rotates, and no means to stop or prevent rotation has yet been found. On a daily basis, 2149 will begin a production event, during which metal will begin issuing from the opening of 2149. Material introduced to the input hopper during a production event will be integrated into the produced metal, even if the auger could not normally break down the material introduced. Production events will continue for a number of minutes equal to the atomic weight of the metal being produced. Metalloids, nonmetals, halogens, noble gasses and elements with no stable isotopes have not been recorded as having been produced by 2149 to date.

    2150- 2199 

SCP-2150 - A Breach of Command

SCP-2150 is a memetic anomaly depicted as various individuals resembling a Caucasian man with facial hair. Information pertaining to 2150 will yield varied results, such as the individual's occupation, biological history, criminal records, etc. No two personnel will discover the same information, despite similar search results between personnel. Any subject who learns the full name of 2150 will identify themselves as “Mark” (referred to as SCP-2150-1) Instances state that they have no memories, except for information related to 2150. If two instances of 2150-1 meet, they will exchange information related to 2150. Any new information gained from one instance will be retained as information related to the other. If two pieces of conflicting information meet, both instances will settle on an agreement as to which piece of information is correct. If a minority of instances hold conflicting information, it will result in a Theta-10 event, during which the majority of 2150-1 will attempt to discredit the minority. Any attempt to discredit 2150-1 results in the misinformation becoming collective knowledge among all instances. Over time, multiple disputes will severely alter any original information gained from their initial exposure.

SCP-2151 - The Ties That Bind Us

SCP-2151 are a pair of nearly identical stainless steel rings. When two human beings wear each ring, any physical contact between them will activate them. Immediately upon contact, the rings will increase dramatically in temperature and burn into the skin of the wearer. The point of contact between the two subjects will also increase in temperature, often resulting in severe burning as the skin fuses. As time passes, more and more of the skin connecting the two individuals will become fused, eventually consuming the bodies of both subjects. At the end of this process, 2151 will be pushed out of the resulting body by seemingly natural processes. SCP-2151-1A is an entity resulting from the fusion of a 17-year-old girl named Monica ████████ and a 50-year-old person who is both related to her and implied to be the creator of the rings.
  • Ambiguous Gender: The gender of Monica's relative who fused with her is not mentioned.
  • And I Must Scream: It is not known if SCP-2151-1A is still conscious or has any higher brain functions. Hopefully not.
  • Body Horror: If two people each wear one of the SCP-2151 rings, their skin will fuse together and they will merge into a single entity until their features are distorted and unrecognizable.
  • Dirty Old Man: Although it has not been determined if they were a man or a woman, Monica's older relative was about 50 years old and in love with her.
  • Incest-ant Admirer: The other individual in the SCP-2151-1A fusion shares at least ██% of their DNA with Monica and was 50 while she was 17.
  • Romantic Fusion: A disturbing example; Monica's older relative was in love with her and fused them together into an indistinguishable mass of flesh.
  • Terminal Transformation: Zigzagged. Most individuals who are fused together with SCP-2151 die shortly afterwards, but SCP-2151-1A, the fusion of Monica and her relative, has been alive for 30 years. It is not known how this is possible.

SCP-2152 - Home™

SCP-2152 is a marble, plinth-mounted bust depicting an unidentified female character wearing a headdress, presumably of Catalonian origin. Prominent weathering upon the surface of the marble indicates that the item is antique, despite what appears to be a comparatively recent, separate addition of pink latex-based paint to the eyes. 2152 emits a continuous, uninterrupted stream of popular music released between 1971 and 2000 from an unknown internal source. Secondly, 2152 applies several preservative effects to any space it occupies that can be defined as a “room”, such as electrical power sources continuing to supply energy indefinitely, unlimited preservation of food and spontaneous remanifestation directly at the feet of any subject that consumes it, and automatic maintenance of personal hygiene.

SCP-2153 - Charitable Clovers

SCP-2153 is a virus of unknown genus which infects clovers and spreads via pollination. Infected clovers, designated SCP-2153-1, invariably have four or more leaves. Humans attempting to pick or otherwise damage 2153-1 will fail in some way unless they are carrying a method of monetary transaction. If a subject carrying the appropriate amount picks or otherwise damages a clover, they will lose a value of $4, at which point the instance will become physically identical to a non-anomalous clover. 2153 is believed to have been engineered by an organization called Trifolium Charities, hereafter SCP-2153-A. The organization is responsible for humanitarian airdrops in various locations since 2005 containing both various humanitarian supplies and hundreds of preserved instances of 2153-1, sealed in plastic sheets. 2153-A will email subjects who have picked 2153-1 within 12 hours of either picking an instance or of an airdrop occurring.

SCP-2154 - Space nowadays

SCP-2154 is an optical telescope situated in an observatory in Canada. Closer examination of its components reveals their manufacturing technology is consistent with those used in analogous projects during the 1940s. 2154 is anomalous because it is able to observe celestial bodies in a state coinciding with the exact time of observation. This eliminates the limitations of the speed of light, which in ordinary circumstances leads to a substantial delay in receiving the visual information from remote parts of space.

SCP-2155 - The Mexica Government in Exile

SCP-2155 is a memetic cognitohazard which makes anyone infected believe in the existence of the "Government of Tenochtitlán in Exile", designated SCP-2155-1. Depending on the ethnicity and nationality of those infected, it is estimated that between 35% and 90% of those infected will become sympathetic to the cause espoused by the documents containing 2155. If left untreated, subjects will actively attempt to spread 2155 through word of mouth, pamphlets, impromptu public speeches, websites, and social media postings. Most such documents claim that the heirs to the Mexican Empire, along with a sizable portion of the priesthood and warrior castes, went into hiding in the 16th century and have waged a guerrilla war against the Spanish Empire, and then the governments of Mexico, the United States, Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras. Information between infected subjects may be conflicting, but almost all of them denounce the "oppression of the people by the European invaders" and call all indigenous peoples of the continent to "actively resist and hinder the usurpers." Documents containing 2155 identify as "the invaders", all kinds of establishment organizations, including the governments of the territories claimed by 2155-1, the Catholic Church, major drug cartels, and the Foundation. If an infection vector is left alone, the documents and speeches by carriers will progressively become more complex and no longer be solely political in nature. Such websites and documents will start calling for the return to the worship of Mesoamerican deities, in particular Tezcatlipoca and Huitzilopoctli.

SCP-2156 - Red and Black

SCP-2156 is a 20 year old woman whose skin alternates between a bright red or black pigmentation. She experiences chronic insomnia and anxiety, most often sleeping between two and four hours per day at irregular intervals. 2156 will involuntarily enter an active state for roughly one minute between three and seven times daily. Active states are more frequent when she is particularly anxious or when she has gone more than five hours without sleep. During an active state, items in 2156's vicinity will be altered in one of several ways: items with multiple well-defined states will alternate rapidly between the different states, items with multiple layers will have said layers exchanged with each other, items that can be assembled or disassembled will rapidly assemble and disassemble, and 2156 herself can appear to possess between up to thirteen heads, changing in number once per second. 2156 perceives her active states as playing several consecutive games of solitaire, with the interface associated with the game's inclusion in Windows 7. While she reports having control over the cards within the rules of the game, it is unclear whether her actions directly translate to the events that occur during an active state. She firmly believes that meeting some unidentified criteria during an active state will cure her insomnia.

SCP-2157 - The Human Forest

SCP-2157 are 41 humans of Asian ethnicity, with varying heights, weights, and builds, located within a Japanese forest. Although standing in a seemingly random arrangement, each member of 2157 faces in a western direction and are capable of involuntary actions, such as blinking and flinching. They show no adverse reaction to extreme cold beyond a reduction in metabolic activity, similar to hibernation in some mammals. Sunlight and rainwater seem to be the only sustenance they require. Biological analysis has found that its members are genetically siblings, each approximately thirty years old. Each member has its feet covered in soil, but there is no physical connection to the earth. Despite this, removal from the soil is fatal to 2157.

SCP-2158 - The Gun That Never Misses

SCP-2158 is a Remington Model 1875 revolver clasped in the mummified, disembodied hand of Joshua Graham, unmodified save for hand-made grips of cow-horn. Any bullet fired from the gun will change course upon leaving the barrel, taking the most direct route to SCP-2158-1, the embalmed body of rancher Stanley Tewksbury, where it will lodge itself, passing through any obstacles. Stanley’s corpse currently contains over 130 bullets, 80 of which were present before retrieval.
  • Dying Curse: Joshua Graham appears to have put a literal curse on Stanley Tewksbury when he hung himself by making sure his gun never misses him even after he dies. The curse apparently came into effect after Stanley died.
  • Historical In-Joke: Joshua Graham and Stanley Tewksbury were members of the Feuding Families behind the Pleasant Valley War. Joshua wanted to avenge his clan's losses to the Tewksburys and took it out on Stanley.
  • Shout-Out: Joshua Graham is named after the character with the same name from Fallout: New Vegas.

SCP-2159 - Head-"Kannon"

SCP-2159 is an object with an indeterminate appearance dependent on individual perception; no two individuals perceive 2159 as the same object. Each iteration tends to relate to the observer in some way. Depictions of 2159 on photographs and video footage also display this anomalous property. Regardless, the object has a consistent mass, volume, and density of approximately 800.3 g, 228.0 cm3 respectively, and 3.51 g/cm3, respectively. The material composition of 2159 is unknown, as attempts to extract samples have failed to date.
  • Affectionate Parody: Of the concept of Fanon. Each viewer's perception of SCP-2159 is unique and related to the viewer's own interests, but they all share the same theme, which in this case is "headcanon". Once it became contained and had the SCP identifier attached to it, SCP-2159 incorporated this information into future perceptions, similar to Ascended Fanon.

SCP-2160 - The Happy Place

SCP-2160 is a webcast titled "The Happy Place", produced from an unknown location. The source of the broadcast varies with each instance, and all attempts to locate a specific point of origin have failed. Forty-eight hours before broadcast, a countdown timer appears on the website chosen to host the webcast, and once it reaches zero, the page automatically refreshes itself with a built-in video player in its stead. The broadcast itself appears as a puppet show hosted by a character which calls themself "Sheriff Buddy". The webcast continues to follow a format similar to other educational children's television shows, during which various puppet characters are subjected to physical harm, often to grievous levels.

SCP-2161 - Blank Space

SCP-2161 is a collection of 85 million pages of self-replicating A4 paper, the majority of which are blank. A small portion of the pages contain letters, figures, or other markings, suggesting that they originally formed a single text. 2161 spontaneously generates blank paper at a rate of approximately 2 pages per hour, several orders of magnitude slower than when first contained. Books or similar paper products brought into contact with this paper become subject to the same effect, their volume increasing through the generation of blank space, with any original text eventually spread across thousands of pages. SCP-2161-2 is a computer virus which increases the amount of white space in electronic documents in a manner similar to 2161. Any file to which a 2161-2-infected document is attached will become infected itself, but the infection is not evident in the underlying code, suggesting an anomalous source.

SCP-2162 - ...as normal as blueberry pie

SCP-2162 is a mobile anomalous construct consisting of a volume of highly concentrated nitrogen gas. Testing has shown that the interior of the construct has a pressure of approximately 101kPa (similar to atmospheric pressure at sea level), but with nitrogen concentrations significantly in excess of normal atmospheric conditions, potentially as high as 100%. The construct does not behave in the manner expected of a body of gas, as it remains affected by surrounding air pressure or weather patterns, nor is it impeded by buildings or other structures. 2162 maintains a constant shape and speed, and the atmosphere within the boundaries of the construct is spontaneously replaced with nitrogen, returning to its previous composition once it has passed. 2162 moves at a constant rate of 0.25km/hr, traveling in a fixed direction along a particular longitude or latitude.

SCP-2163 - Hollywood

SCP-2163 is the entirety of the North American film industry. Specifically, every movie produced on the continent (often in Hollywood, California) generates a series of cognitohazards, amassing over 300 per year and continuously increasing in number. The cognitohazards vary markedly in form and their effect on human subjects, but there are several traits that are shared by many of them. Visual cognitohazards often contain rapid changes in brightness, contrast, and color. Auditory cognitohazards often include either human speech, or short, repetitive pieces of music containing string instruments and/or synthesized sounds. Infohazards often appear as lines of dialogue, monologue, or narration. Currently, it is impossible to neutralize 2163 without causing a massive cultural shift.

SCP-2164 - Magical Two: Electric Boogaloo

SCP-2164 are two circular areas, two meters in diameter, surrounding two human subjects. Within 2164, scientific laws as commonly understood break down and can be manipulated according to set principles by the humanoids within. SCP-2164-A is an elderly Caucasian man appearing to be around eighty years of age. 2164-A can manipulate matter within his range of effect using occult rituals or herbal concoctions in the Renaissance tradition. SCP-2164-B is a Caucasian woman in her early thirties formerly known as “Jennifer”. She can perform small reality alterations with the aid of crystals and non-corporeal entities, as well as heal various illnesses using homeopathic techniques. Both subjects have knowledge of one another, and each of them are rather antagonistic towards the other.
  • Ritual Magic/Wizard Classic: SCP-2164-A's magic is a form of this, judging by the herbs and Dog Latin spells he uses. He also claims to be from the Renaissance.
  • Ye Olde Butchered English: 2164-A's speech is filled with this.
  • New-Age Retro Hippie: SCP-2164-B's beliefs and methods include homeopathy, "vibes", and fear of Monsanto.
  • Granola Girl: 2164-B's food must be organic, gluten-free, and not altered genetically.
  • Clap Your Hands If You Believe: Interestingly, 2164-B can not only affect people with potions and rituals but with her own beliefs as well — for instance, because she believes vaccines cause autism, a healthy D-class who'd been vaccinated developed symptoms of classic autism in her presence despite her not knowing the D-class's medical history.
  • Unequal Rites: 2164-A and -B hate each other:
    SCP-2164-A: May Albertus Magnus and all his disciples be blind to your ignorance! The angels of heaven are far more terrifying beings than your tame, lily-livered shades. Thine milk-minded pets of yours bear no true semblance to the servants of the Most High!
    SCP-2164-B: That's it! I've had it with your psycho mumbo jumbo! You're about to get your chakras all out of alignment!

SCP-2165 - Irredeemable

SCP-2165 is something irredeemable. It used to be something, but now... it's nothing. It is unknown to the Foundation if 2165 is a sapient entity, a non-sapient creature, an inanimate object, or a metaphysical concept. Regardless, 2165 has evidently performed an action or series of actions that caused it to be considered beyond absolution by universal consensus. The exact nature of this action or series of actions has since been erased from causality by said consensus. As part of its containment procedures, 2165 is never to be acknowledged by anyone or anything in the known universe.
  • Cosmic Retcon: The effects of whatever SCP-2165 has done to deserve punishment have completely been erased from existence, by universal consensus.
  • Importation Expansion: In the Chinese branch, SCP-2165 is handled in a completely different manner from the English branch, getting an entire article through the second act of SCP-CN-2610 to de-noodle its backstory. There, it is revealed that SCP-2165's sin was denying the truth of all universes and narratives that have existed and will ever exist — that "normalcy" and "anomalies" are not two separate concepts but instead one and the same — and obtained & used an omnipotent power to exterminate every being, object, and concept that any branch wiki labeled as an anomaly. It was only defeated and sealed when it tried to destroy SCP-173, who is secretly the Gate of Truth of the Foundation's narrative and so instead released a multiverse-spanning World-Healing Wave upon its destruction.
  • Noodle Incident: Whatever SCP-2165 did is never explained, all we know is that it was so irredeemable that the SCP was Unpersoned from causality.
  • Un-person: If 2165 is even a person in the first place.

SCP-2166 - Foot Pope

SCP-2166 is a children's playground game colloquially known as "Foot Pope", which requires three or more players and a space that has at least three different types of ground terrain. At the start of the first round, all players assemble in a circle around one player, the “Foot Pope”, who chants a rhyme and pats the right foot of each player assembled. When the Foot Pope has finished the rhyme and "blessing", the players disperse and chant a reply. The Foot Pope will then call out a type of terrain, and all players must place both feet on this terrain as quickly as possible. The player who fulfills this task the slowest is "out" for the remaining duration of the round. All players who are out during the round find their feet permanently affixed to the ground they are standing on until the round ends. Those affected report feeling only mild discomfort.

SCP-2167 - Demon Gate Amplifier

SCP-2167 is a Gauchito-78 audio amplifier with a case made of unpainted cast aluminum-zinc. The front face of the device has three adjustment knobs, with the labels "gain", "volume", and "tone" etched into the case, as well as a script logo giving the device name and an unknown graphic icon. When connected to a set of speakers, a power supply, and an audio source, 2167 will function as a signal amplifier, amplifying the signal voltage according to the position of the "gain" knob, and performing high-frequency filtering according to the position of the "tone" knob. Computer measurements of the audio output indicate that the physical intensity of sound emitted from a speaker driven by 2167 is typical for a hobby audio amplifier. Chronic exposure results in permanent hearing damage as would be expected from non-anomalous sounds played at the perceived volume, but does not lead to total hearing loss. When disconnected from a set of speakers, 2167 will cause nearby sets of speakers to vibrate on their own, producing audio output as if connected. Additionally, 2167 will instead output the contents of random audio recordings nearby. This may include potentially sensitive or infohazardous recordings, and may compromise security or result in other containment failures.

SCP-2168 - Progress

SCP-2168 is a phenomenon occurring in rural towns in Uruguay. Areas affected by will be subjected to a series of anomalous changes to their infrastructure and population through two stages. During stage one, populations living in affected areas will feel a gradually increasing urge to abandon their homes during a seemingly arbitrary period of time. Once this period has passed, regardless of the number of inhabitants left in the area, human-built infrastructure in the area will start to spontaneously collapse. At the same time, the remains will rearrange into a structure reminiscent of a skyscraper, always located in the geographical center of the affected town, and will continue growing in height until all surrounding buildings have been completely destroyed. In stage two, several entities start to appear inside the skyscraper. These beings, hereby designated SCP-2168-A, are sapient, pale, genetically identical humanoids of unspecific sex and gender. 2168-A are also extremely docile and display no threat to personnel, complying with any order given. Observation has revealed that the entities follow a very strict daily routine, spending an average of ten hours per day sitting near a desk and performing seemingly meaningless tasks, such as reading from blank sheets of papers, connecting and disconnecting USB devices and pressing random buttons on a disconnected keyboard.

SCP-2169 - Conversational Surgery

SCP-2169 is an anomalous phenomenon that affects operating rooms with an adjoining observation suite, designated SCP-2169-1. While affected, surgical procedures scheduled for the room will cause 2169 to activate. When the patient scheduled for surgery is sedated and moved into the room, the affected operating room will become unreachable, though the observation suite can still be entered and exited. Individuals designated SCP-2169-2 will manifest within the room and begin to perform the scheduled surgical procedure on the subject, consisting most commonly of a surgeon, an anesthesiologist, a scrub nurse, and a specialist specific to the surgical procedure in question. During the procedure, 2169-2 will converse among themselves on a number of esoteric and often anomalous topics. When the procedure is complete, 2169-2 will demanifest and 2169-1 will become reachable, after which the affected patient can be removed. If 2169 is not activated for periods exceeding thirty days, 2169 will move to a new location.
  • Medical Game: SCP-2169 appears to be sessions of some sort of extradimensional surgery game.
  • Troll: One pops up to ruin a surgery by suddenly stabbing a patient to death.

SCP-2170 - The Clown Vaccine

SCP-2170 are non-physical memetic entities experienced within an abandoned mine in Tonopah, Nevada. As memetic entities, they exist within the senses of nearby sentient beings, described as whispering voices and fleeting images. The entities themselves are non-malicious and only seek interaction for the purpose of self-preservation, but exposure to them is detrimental for the long term physical and mental health of those who perceive them. Symptoms of mild exposure begin with an inability to accurately read written language due to auditory and visual hallucinations. Continued exposure results in paranoia, increased hostility, self-harming and seizures. Sustained unprotected exposure leads to death, except for individuals diagnosed with sociopathic tendencies.The only counter for their effects, for undetermined reasons, is for subjects to greatly enjoy thoughts about clowns. There is no direct relation between clowns and 2170 beyond this fact, and the entities themselves express distaste for clowns, especially clown iconography.

SCP-2171 - Autumn Shepherds

SCP-2171 is a seasonal phenomenon involving the fallen leaves of all deciduous trees rooted within the confines of certain areas. Leaves fallen within the area during autumn will invariably form large piles which remain unaffected by local weather until all trees are completely defoliated. Affected leaf piles will slide slowly, forming "windrows" of varying width. These windrows will eventually manifest instances of SCP-2171-1 at their front end. 2171-1 are humanoid entities composed entirely of affected leaves, which appear to "guide" the windrows. 2171-1 are fragile, but capable of movement, and apparently impervious to hostile weather conditions. They emit repetitive vocalizations that may involve speech in various languages and have a tendency to hook dried leaves on tree branches across the perimeter of 2171 areas, or string leaves between trees that delineate this perimeter. 2171-1 react violently against any element disrupting the windrows. Such reactions will include various vocalizations in a much lower pitch, a considerable growth in size, and persistent attempts at enveloping the disturbing element in a thick cover of affected leaves.

SCP-2172 - This Light Never Turns Green

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder The Gulf.

SCP-2173 - An Interdimensional Mexican Standoff

SCP-2173 is an intangible dome 1 km in diameter enveloping the majority of Dellmarsh, Maine. The atmosphere inside 2173 is approximately 70% carbon monoxide, 25% argon, and 5% chlorine and other trace gasses. Any gasses flowing through 2173 are converted almost instantly into the material composing the rest of its atmosphere, and all gasses flowing out are converted back to Earth standard. SCP-2173-1 are sapient, humanoid beings apparently native to the environment present within 2173. They have demonstrated technological capabilities exceeding that of modern human society. 2173-1 are bipedal and estimated to be approximately 2 meters in height on average, as well as appearing endothermic. Little else is known about their biology or their culture because of the lack of physical interaction between them and the Foundation.

SCP-2174 - "Miranda"

SCP-2174 is a phenomenon wherein a location spontaneously comes to resemble a murder scene. All known instances contain at least one humanoid chalk outline, corresponding to the popular misconception that drawing such outlines to mark the victim’s body is standard police procedure. The positions suggested by the chalk outlines are often awkward and unnatural, though typical of homicide or assault victims, as some cannot be achieved without major skeletal damages. DNA evidence recovered from 2174 instances has not yet been found to match any known missing or deceased person. Different trends may also be observed over time, such as the increase of instances containing blood and/or other biological matter since the early 2000s. 2174 may also contain a mind-affecting component, as interviews with residents in the area show they fully believe that a homicide has occurred and police investigation is underway, even when there is no corpse or police investigator at the site.
  • Chalk Outline: SCP-2174 parodies this trope, with the chalk outlines always appearing and little other signs of police activity or evidence of a crime.

SCP-2175 - Are You Going

SCP-2175 is a localized phenomenon that manifests on Windsor Bridge, which connects the towns of Windsor and Eton in Berkshire, UK. At irregular intervals during dawn and dusk, documents of varying content and length will appear on the pedestrian walkway of the bridge, collectively designated SCP-2175-1. Instances of 2175-1 take the form of notes, reminders, and collections of miscellaneous information, written on international B5 size paper sheets. Through graphology analysis, handwriting matches with local citizens have been established for a small minority of these instances. Interviews indicate that the involved subjects consistently have some recollection of the information contained in the documents, and have expressed a belief in the importance of committing said information to memory. As such, it is believed that 2175 is triggered by individuals crossing the bridge while engaging in active remembrance of information they consider significant at the time. While the majority of 2175-1 are commonplace lists, usually of groceries or “to-do” items, others have included material ranging from less commonplace material to personal information.

SCP-2176 - Ghostlight™

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder Third Law.

SCP-2177 - Yellow Journal Infection

SCP-2177 is a pathogen that targets libraries holding print subscriptions to large numbers of technical journals. It takes the form of documentation requesting that a journal or document be added to the institution’s collection, always in the correct format for the receiving institution and occasionally including misinformation suggesting a pre-existing record. Once 2177 has been entered into the catalog in any capacity, its record is altered to indicate an ongoing subscription to a technical journal. SCP-2177-1 refers to the viral envelope of 2177, which always takes the form of a 24 x 30 cm technical journal bound in yellow pasteboard, which contains the pathogen. 2177-1 contents and findings are not anomalous, but always refer to large-scale unethical testing on human subjects. When an infection is successfully eliminated, or when an infected institution ceases operation, 2177 will be transmitted to other vulnerable libraries until at least one becomes infected.
  • Historical In-Joke: The uncertain root cause of SCP-2177 can be traced back to the oldest known instance of SCP-2177-1, which documents Unit 731's experiments and the United States's pardoning and recruitment of their scientists.

SCP-2178 - Great Sage

SCP-2178 is a rock formation resembling a closed fist, located in the Himalayas. From base to peak, it is approximately 162 meters tall, with an elevation of 6.5 kilometers. 2178 undergoes anomalous changes, creating environmental conditions impossible for its location in a 360 day cycle. A human head, designated SCP-2178-1, is affixed to the base of 2178, appearing as an adolescent woman of Han Chinese ancestry. The head is both alive and conscious, suffers no injuries from her environment, and has no need for food or drink. When questioned, 2178-1 does not provide any information about its origins and is extremely disoriented. She is aware of her condition, but does not exhibit any signs of distress. It has proven impossible to retrieve her, as attempts to dig into or otherwise damage 2178 have been futile.
  • Shout-Out: SCP-2178 is one to Journey to the West, with SCP-2178-1 herself implied to be a descendent of Sun Wukong and her current fate being similar to how the Buddha trapped Sun Wukong under the Five Phases Mountain.

SCP-2179 - False Alarm

SCP-2179 is a modified fire alarm bell with a ticker-tape machine attached to it. When a potential threat to human lives or an anomalous object/phenomenon is detected within 120m of the main entrance to Kibworth Harcourt Primary School, in Leicestershire, UK, the bell rings at 75 decibels at a distance of 5m, and continues until the hazard has been contained or is no longer relevant. The ticker tape dispensed summarizes the current threat, though the majority of these incidents have been relatively harmless to human life.
  • Crying Wolf: Most of the reports it made were mundane, leading to the Foundation not taking it seriously. It wasn't until the reports it made about giant canids attacking coming true when the Foundation did take it seriously.

SCP-2180 - The Living Cave Painting

SCP-2180 is a cave painting in Austria, which covers an area 10 meters high and 16 meters long on a wall within the cave system it is kept in. It is unknown when 2180 was created, but the art resembles Paleolithic Era cave paintings drawn by early humans. On the left side of 2180 is a mountain with a cross section of a cave network inside it. Starting at the base of the mountain is a forest which covers the middle area of 2180. The top quarter features a sky, which contains illustrations analogous to a sun and moon. The painting is inhabited by animated drawings of humans and animals from the Paleolithic Era. The drawings will interact with each other and the environment, hunting for food, eating, sleeping, lighting fires, reproducing, and interacting with each other. Plant life has been observed to grow and wither, yet no water nor drinking have been observed. 2180 also has a day-night cycle, with the sun and moon moving on and off the sides of the painting corresponding with Central European Time.

SCP-2181 - Little Lock-a-Doors

SCP-2181 is a small humanoid of indeterminate gender with semi-opaque skin, appearing as a child approximately seven years of age. The orbits of the eyes are 11.5 cm in diameter, with accompanying deformities to the frontal, parietal and zygomatic bones of the cranium. The eyelids are disproportionately small in comparison, and 2181 has developed keratoconjunctivitis as a result, though it still has considerably greater visual acuity and range than a normal human. Testing has revealed that 2181 can close and lock any door within sight, as well as windows, hatches, and any other covering placed in a wall, ceiling or floor. 2181 will close, lock, or seal doors seemingly at random, reacting with extreme distress if unable to do so. Its behavior when left alone is otherwise generally considered normal for a seven-year-old child, for the most part.

SCP-2182 - The Big Bang

SCP-2182 is a bronze, winged rod similar in appearance to a Greek caduceus. Folded ivory wings similar to that of a bird form the base of the handle. The bronze and ivory are somehow capable of bending slightly while maintaining composition. 2182 affects nearly any inanimate object or material it is pointed towards. Its primary effect differs depending on the object affected and the individual wielding the rod. 2182 causes any objects to become animate and/or anthropomorphic, and will behave in a highly sexually suggestive manner for up to three hours. These automatons are typically benign, non-sapient, and cease effect permanently. The specific effects differ with persons utilizing 2182.

SCP-2183 - The Ride Never Ends

SCP-2183 is an unfinished roller coaster with a maximum height of 37.2 m, a maximum speed of 88.5 km/h, and a physical track length of 798.8 m, after which it abruptly ends. The carts of 2183, once they reach the end of the track, travel on a set path in midair, presumably simulating the unfinished portion of the coaster. At the end of the ride, the carts will reach the end of the station and prepare to travel again. Each cart will follow a different path whenever it reaches the physical end of the track. Due to this, the actual ride length of 2183 varies, with the longest recorded length reaching 5,460 m. In midair, projected heights can reach up to 100 m and speeds can go up to 180 km/h. If a subject is placed within one of the carts, it will deviate significantly from other carts after traveling a length of approximately 2,000 miles.
  • And I Must Scream: D-93730 was a test rider for SCP-2183, and even though the cart he was riding has long since crashed, he is still moving as if he's still riding the roller coaster, unable to escape.
  • Over-the-Top Roller Coaster: A variant where the roller coaster isn't finished but the invisible path it takes certainly has the experience of one.

SCP-2184 - Stone Age

SCP-2184 is a live steppe mammoth approximately 12 meters high, making it three times taller than the largest known non-anomalous specimen. It also shows no sign of metabolism, growth, or aging. Aside from its inexplicable presence in the 21st century, the mammoth is anomalous because the only items capable of functioning in close proximity to it are those made from natural materials commonly used during the Stone Age. Any object brought before the creature that has been made with post-Stone Age technology will malfunction and disintegrate in the mammoth’s proximity, with the latest devices disintegrating in the longest range.

SCP-2185 - The Aquaform Thaumaturgic Union

SCP-2185 is a collective of water-based semi-humanoid entities describing themselves as "aquaform thaumaturgic case servitors", who have been attacking the homes of several individuals suspected by the Foundation to have participated in the proliferation of anomalous activity. 2185 claim to have work relations with said individuals, and also claim to have been mistreated by them on a regular basis. As a result of said grievance, the entities claim to have decided to band together and form 2185 as a method of forcing "summoners" to acquiesce to their demands of fair treatment, lest the prejudiced persons face consequences. Negotiation between 2185 and the aforementioned individuals has evidently gone awry, resulting in members causing minor-to-moderate flooding on the property of offending "summoners", typically by causing unnatural surges in local piping or overflowing reservoirs using what are believed to be innate water manipulation abilities. As a result of these attacks, several of the aforementioned individuals have sought mediation between themselves and 2185.

SCP-2186 - Chameleonscaper

SCP-2186 is an adult female Namaqua chameleon that differs from non-anomalous representatives of its species by its lack of chromatophores, rendering it unable to change its color in response to external stimuli. 2186's anomalous properties become apparent when it is threatened, provoked, or otherwise made uncomfortable. After approximately 2 minutes of exposure, the exterior surfaces of affected objects become identical in color and texture to 2186's skin. If agitation is maintained, the interiors of affected objects begin to gradually transform into biological matter identical to that of the chameleon. Full transformation occurs after approximately 5 minutes, but it can be reversed if 2186 returns to a calm state or is removed from the vicinity of affected objects.

SCP-2187 - Juĝo Nova

SCP-2187 is a network of anomalous technology created in the mid twentieth century. SCP-2187-A is an abandoned two-story estate in southern Virginia.The building is devoid of normal furnishings, and instead contains a variety of technology resembling 1950s era equipment. The equipment is powered by 413 large atomic batteries connected in the basement level. The building also houses a large computer connected to six complex neural scanners, taking up the majority of 2187-A's interior. Each scanner is a hollow acrylic hemisphere lined with a complex array of metal instruments. The scanners automatically trigger when above a human, and are able to transfer highly-detailed neural patterns from human brains inside it into a data format usable by the computer. SCP-2187-B is an artificial satellite in a geostationary orbit of Earth 540,000 km above 2187-A. 2187-B emits massive amounts of gamma radiation, at levels for which currently there exists no feasible equipment to shield personnel from a lethal dosage at ranges closer than 400 meters. 2187-B transmits periodical wireless televisual broadcasts at intervals of six hours, and human subjects can be teleported there via elevators within 2187-A.

SCP-2188 - Life and Times of Joaquín Pablo Izquierdo de San Felipe

SCP-2188 was Joaquín Pablo Izquierdo de San Felipe, a Uruguayan man whose actions prompted an anomalous reaction within the residents of the rural farming community of Dotson, Nebraska. From 1965 to 1998, significant events occurring in Joaquín’s life would affect the mental state of the town's residents. The effects of Joaquín's actions on Dotson’s populace primarily took the form of impulses towards artistic or creative endeavors. For example, Joaquín came to the Foundation’s attention when he was arrested by Uruguay's Interior Police for attempting to smuggle live specimens of the Paraguayan hairy dwarf porcupine into Argentina. This coincided with a report of an individual in Dotson conducting what was termed a "performance art" demonstration of an extended tango dance routine while his partner pierced him thirty-three times with porcupine quills. The effects of Joaquín's actions on residents of Dotson primarily took the form of impulses towards artistic or creative endeavors, though in some cases the extreme nature of several artworks could be classed as a form of temporary mental illness. As a result of Joaquín's anomalous influence, Dotson was host to a sophisticated artistic subculture, though the effect disappeared after Joaquín's death in 1998.

SCP-2189 - Clockwork Fruit

SCP-2189 is a collection of flowering plants resembling an apple tree (designated SCP-2189-T-1), a grapevine, (designated SCP-2189-T-2) and a banana tree, (designated SCP-2189-T-3), as well as their associated fruit (designated SCP-2189-F). In place of the expected internal structures are an intricate network of gears, springs, cams, and cranks indistinguishable from non-anomalous metals, mostly brass. When its internal mechanisms are functioning, instances of 2189 respond to the environment similarly to their biological counterparts, except that their leaves never change color and fall off and fruit remains attached indefinitely. The plants have the same needs as their non-anomalous counterparts in terms of water, sunlight, and soil type. When deprived of these, the internal mechanisms begin to slow, eventually stopping altogether under circumstances corresponding to severe malnutrition. Functioning instances of 2189-F can be eaten and digested, where subjects report the flavor and texture as typical of the fruit corresponding to the instance. Mechanisms that are bitten through will continue their normal movement, with portions moving from the main mass to the bitten-off piece and back again, as if the mechanism were still intact.

SCP-2190 - Phone calls from Mom

SCP-2190 is a telephonic entity that manifests in communication systems within the Philippines. Records of previous manifestations have shown that 2190 possesses the personality, vocal quality, and financial resources of a deceased Filipino woman who evidently succumbed to heart failure. 2190 is capable of calling any mobile phone within a 100km radius of the home in which the woman’s daughter currently resides. Every two to three weeks, 2190 places a phone call to an individual of its choosing, primarily if the recipient must reside in close proximity to the daughter’s place of living, possesses a reasonable level of physical fitness and intelligence, and has an urgent need to acquire a large sum of money. 2190 will go on to claim that her daughter is trapped in an abusive relationship with her husband, and will beg for the recipient of the call to help in ending the relationship between the two.
  • Attempted Rape: POI-2190-1 tried to get her daughter drunk enough to sleep with another man in order to force her to marry him. Fortunately, the attempt failed.
  • Be Careful What You Wish For: According to SCP-2305, if the Foundation forcibly broke up the family using amnestics, SCP-2190 would quiet down for 2 weeks before sending phone calls to half of the Phillipines, apologizing, saying she made a mistake, and referring to the Foundation as a horrible group of people.
  • Big Fancy House: POI-2190-1 lived in one before she died. She's lost in it and it keeps getting bigger.
  • Domestic Abuse: POI-2190-1 tries to make people think that this is going on in her daughter's household.
  • Frame-Up: It's accomplished by the mother paying people to assault her daughter, then pinning it on the husband. The Foundation is now actively trying to prevent this.
  • Haunted House: POI-2910-1 is now trapped alone in her big house as a ghost.
  • Happily Married: POI-2190-2 and -3, despite everything they've been through.
  • Ironic Hell: The mother's ghost is now lost in her ever-expanding mansion, which is filled with things she bought for her daughter and future grandchildren.
  • Maligned Mixed Marriage: Religiously and an inverted version racially. The mother hates the husband not only because he's another Filipino (and hence doesn't offer the opportunities of a wealthy American), but because he's a Protestant.
  • My Beloved Smother: POI-2190-1 has been trying to control her daughter's life for years, even from beyond the grave. All of the methods she has used have failed, but it doesn't deter her from trying to force her daughter to live with her. POI-2910-2 has stopped hating her for it, but still wants nothing to do with her.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: As noted in Be Careful What You Wish For, if she actually succeeded in her endeavor, she'd come to regret it immensely within two weeks.
  • No Name Given: Played straight with POI-2190-1 and -2, whose names are completely redacted, though the first names of -3 (the husband, Albert) and -4 (their son Philip) are visible.
  • Phone Call from the Dead: A mother's ghost keeps trying to call her daughter and trick people into breaking up said daughter's marriage. While the Foundation was containing the daughter, the mother tapped into their secure phone lines.
  • Pet the Dog: While there are pragmatic reasons for doing so as noted below the note at the end of the article states that the Foundation staff also just wanted to do a nice thing protecting the family, for the sake of staff morale if nothing else. It doesn't cost them much so why not?
  • Punch-Clock Hero: The Foundation has its own reasons for keeping the POI-2910-2's family together. Namely, to keep POI-2910-1 out of their phone lines, because they don't want an anomaly to set the terms of containment but also don't want to destroy it like the GOC would, because it places no strain on their resources to do so and finally, because the people handling containment realize that they can contain an anomalous individual while still allowing her to life a normal life.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: POI-2190-2 gave one to her mother after an attempt to force her to marry another man.
    POI-2190-2: “Is this why you took me here to the states? So you could get me drunk and sleep with an American? Don’t you know I’m already married to Albert?” And she tells me to forget about Albert, that I need to marry an American. Imagine, even though I have already a husband and a son! [...] Even though it was cruel, I said, “I will not abandon my child and my husband like you did! You left us for money and toys and parties, and you never cared about me for 19 years until you realized you wanted me! You don’t love me, you only want me like a dress or a doll. You only love yourself!”
  • Sympathy for the Devil: POI-2910-2 eventually does feel sorry for her mother, caught up in the Ironic Hell she's created for herself, despite POI-2190-1's shockingly horrible behavior.

SCP-2191 - "Dracula Factory"

SCP-2191 is a temple complex located within the dense Hoia Forest of Romania. The first two floors of the structure hold a close resemblance to Eastern Orthodox monasteries commonly found in the region, though it possesses a system of tunnels that makes up its lowest known portion. 2191 is inhabited by a population of organisms classified as SCP-2191-1. Instances are considered genetically human, but they have undergone several significant, seemingly fatal mutations. 2191-1 lack all major internal organs with the exception of the lungs, heart, and brain stem. The outer epidermis lacks pigmentation and displays a condition resembling cracked porcelain. 2191-1 are not believed to be biologically immortal, but have a significantly decreased rate of necrosis. During an active state, 2191-1 will leave 2191 and aggressively hunt for living humans - ignoring non-human animals and deceased individuals. A paralytic agent is employed to disable their prey, injected via venom-delivering barbs located in the lower carpals of both hands. When prey has been successfully incapacitated, 2191-1 will open its mouth and widen its throat, unhinging its jaw in the process. 2191-2A will then emerge from 2191-1's interior cavity, initiating the feeding process by latching to the victim's neck via a toothed, funnel-like sucking mouth belonging to a creature inhabiting their abdominal region, designated SCP-2191-2 will inject the body with digestive enzymes, liquidizing organ, muscle, and bone alike before consuming the resultant fluids. The creatures within 2191 are controlled by SCP-2191-3, an immense, sapient, psychic organism whose core is located deep beneath the structure. 2191-3 secretes a highly corrosive substance which is employed in the creation of tunnels throughout the Balkan Peninsula.
  • Canon Welding: Some sources claim that it is actually Klavigar Lovataar, one of Ion's four servants from Sarkic mythology.
  • Dishing Out Dirt: SCP-2191-3 is able to cause earthquakes at will.
  • Humanoid Abomination: SCP-2191-1 instances are genetically human, but have undergone significant mutations such as lacking all major internal organs except for the lungs, heart and brain stem, among many others.
  • Hive Mind: A massive underground organism, SCP-2191-3, controls SCP-2191-1 and SCP-2191-2 instances, with SCP-2191-1 instances acting as feeder drones.
  • Morton's Fork: The Foundation is providing SCP-2191-3 with the food it needs, due to having sacrificed over 40,000 people in trying to contain it and many more in trying to destroy it. The alternative would be to sacrifice the entire Balkan Peninsula in order to neutralize it.
  • Our Vampires Are Different: The SCP 2191-1 instances outwardly resemble the Orlok-style pale, bestial vampires, but underneath their mutated humanlike bodies, they are actually organic drones controlled by symbiotic lamprey-like creatures (SCP 2191-2) which are linked via a Hive Mind to SCP 2191-3 and act as feeding mechanisms to supply it with food created from digested from human victims.

SCP-2192 - "Milaya," the Atomic Child

SCP-2192 is a child between the ages of five and seven. Due to extensive tissue damage covering the entirety of their surface area, 2192’s sex is not physically apparent. 2192 identifies itself as female, and responds to the word "Milaya", as well as other Russian terms of endearment. “Milaya” speaks and reads Russian at a level typical of the average native speaker in the five to seven year age range. Her temperament is typical of a normal child between the ages of five and seven, and psychological development appears normal given the circumstances of containment. Milaya is typically well-behaved, friendly, and empathetic towards staff, and appears to enjoy socializing with anyone entering her chamber, commonly referring to them as "friends." Her surface area is covered in what appear to be severe radiation burns, causing the complete destruction of 80% or more of the epidermis, severe damage to the underlying dermis, and 5 to 10% exposure and damage to the hypodermis. Due to the resulting nerve damage, these burns do not typically cause her serious pain, although she does commonly express feelings of discomfort. Milaya is highly radioactive, producing a high-enough level of gamma radiation to cause acute illness within 60 minutes of exposure if proper safety procedures are not maintained. The level of radioactive energy increases proportionately during moments of physical or emotional distress.

SCP-2193 - "Monthly Termination"

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the folder AIAD.

SCP-2194 - Filth

SCP-2194 is a phenomenon affecting densely-populated urban areas, which appears to manifest in the presence of persistently excessive quantities of refuse and waste. 2194 manifests as an amorphous, partially mobile mass of common refuse, dead microorganisms, fecal matter, live bacteria, assorted particulate matter, and other forms of biological and non-biological waste. 2194 propagates via direct physical contact, gradually spreading to adjacent surfaces as a brownish film of waste and particulate. Refuse, waste and dead biological matter becomes incorporated into the mass on contact. Should affected material come into direct contact with any surface, including the skin of a live organism, it will leave a "stain" at the point of contact. This stain spreads at a relatively low rate, but any attempt to abrade, dissolve, corrode, or otherwise remove it results in the formation of an amount of material roughly double the amount removed. Avian and mammalian subjects exposed to 2194 are invariably distressed by the appearance and growth of the stain, becoming increasingly frantic in their attempts to remove it. Once 2194 covers at least 33% of a live organism's body surface, the organism becomes an instance of SCP-2194-1, capable of spreading 2194 via direct physical contact and displaying extremely unhygienic behavior, characterized by an obsession with both 2194 and other, non-anomalous forms of waste. Instances typically expire within 5-7 days of exposure, often due to suffocation caused by the formation of an overwhelming amount of waste material in the lungs and air passages.

SCP-2195 - Sons of the Nation

SCP-2195 is evidence related to a large-scale government project which involves mass reproduction of SCP-2195-1 for military purposes, specifically targeting the drawbacks of said project. 2195 includes biological samples preserved through various methods, demonstration and test articles, prototypes, and a variety of documents. The sum of documentation recovered was enough to fill 19 shipping containers at the moment of discovery. 2195-1 are essentially bombs powered by living, genetically altered human infants of indeterminate sex, with a body structure that is radically different from that of normal infants and more resembling a missile.
  • Alternate Universe: SCP-2195 appears to come from a different version of Earth where human society is much less ethical and moral, considering the massive number of forced pregnancies of numerous women with living bombs and the emotional and trust manipulation that was done to make most of them submit.
  • Powered by a Forsaken Child: SCP-2195-1 instances are organic bombs of human origin that were birthed by forcibly impregnated mothers. They are also able to be trained to some degree to be better in their role as target-seeking missiles.

SCP-2196 - The Deep Mote

SCP-2196 is a disk approximately 18 cm across and 3 mm thick. The front side is smooth to the limits of detection, while the back is lightly etched with a fractal pattern which shrinks below the measurable level near the center. 2196 absorbs all radiation directed at it, giving it a completely black appearance with the exception of SCP-2196-b, a small light point on the front surface which moves toward the edge as viewing angle decreases. Subjects observing 2196-b begin to experience a strong curiosity about its nature, along with a minor compulsion to magnify it, typically requesting telescopes or similar devices in order to clearly see it. As magnification is increased and perceived arc-diameter expands, subjects show signs of dread, apprehension, and paranoia, along with an increased compulsion to magnify the object, typically reporting that they are unwilling or unable to look away. At this point, subjects are still able to cease the process under coercion. As subjects begin to approach a perceived diameter of one arc minute, they become mute and unresponsive, only continuing magnification. As subjects zoom to an estimated angular diameter of 30 arc-minutes, they seize and lose consciousness, waking after a short period with no memory of what 2196-b looks like.

SCP-2197 - Shop Class

SCP-2197 is a one-story structure located in an unincorporated Maine township between Route 1 and the Atlantic coast. The words “Anziano’s Curio Shoppe” are etched in stylized lettering on a large storefront window displaying what appear to be various second-hand goods. Individuals traveling by motor vehicle in or near the township experience a greater than expected rate of mechanical difficulties, GPS malfunctions, flat tires, unexpectedly low fuel, and loss of cellular reception. Affected motorists frequently seek assistance in this township, and while delayed, often enter 2197, due to its location between the township’s only mechanic and lodgings. Those entering 2197 are greeted by a humanoid entity resembling a stooped, elderly man in a leather apron, designated SCP-2197-1. The entity will introduce itself as “Mr. Anziano”, engage in small talk, and encourage the visitor to browse. If an individual expresses interest in an item, Mr. Anziano will speak highly of the effort involved in its manufacture and the good character of its maker, often remarking that “he tried his best.” Most items purchased from the shop display anomalous properties. Somewhere on each item is a single small glyph written in a hemoglobin-like substance, the design of which differs from item to item.

SCP-2198 - Mourning The World

SCP-2198 was a collection of several nimbostratus clouds observed forming directly above the Antarctic Circle, as well as limited areas of China, India, the USA, the UK, Russia, Japan, and South Korea, between 2006 and 2007, all of which have since dissipated. The largest instance, forming over the majority of the Antarctic Circle, was observed to precipitate frozen human tears. Secondary instances, forming above the aforementioned countries, were observed to precipitate human saliva at an above-average speed of 56km/h. Secondary instances of 2198 invariably manifested above factories manufacturing fire extinguishers, air conditioners, solvents, and aerosols. Analysis of the machinery in these factories has confirmed the presence of DNA from thousands of individuals within the stored samples.

SCP-2199 - Out of the Frying Pan

SCP-2199 is an adult male Indian Camel whose hump is hairless and has the appearance of being covered in scar tissue. Instead of being completely composed out of tissue fibers, the camel’s hump is filled with water underneath a 10 cm layer of fibrous tissue. This water is brackish, self-replenishing, and inhabits a volume roughly equivalent to the total biomass of 2199. Despite the absence of any corresponding light sources, it contains ambient light. A large number of small organisms, collectively designated SCP-2199-1, inhabit the interior of the camel’s hump. space. Each subgroup resembles a particular species of desert plant or animal, albeit having adapted or been heavily modified for small size and aquatic environments. While still superficially resembling their desert counterparts, all 2199-1 instances are between 2 and 10 cm long, and the relative sizes do not correspond to the relative sizes of their unmodified relatives.
  • Bizarre Alien Biology:
    • SCP-2199 is an Indian camel whose hump is filled with water instead of tissue fibers, and this water is self-replenishing.
    • The animals that live inside the hump, designated SCP-2199-1, resemble animals that live in desert regions, but have been modified to have small sizes and to live in an aquatic environment.
