    2500- 2549 

SCP-2503 - Estimated Distance: 9,216 Years

SCP-2503 is an alternate universe that can be entered through a space-time anomaly located in a house in Canada. Whoever is trapped in this universe is left to spend approximately 9,216 years inside it before they can escape.
  • Bigger on the Inside: SCP-2503 is a time-space anomaly associated with a master bedroom of a house in Canada. When someone enters the room through the Portal Door, they end up in another place: a concrete path that stretches to the horizon under a dimly lit sky.
  • Portal Door: The door of the master bedroom of a house in Canada leads to a Bigger on the Inside alternate reality consisting of a concrete path under a dark sky.
  • Year Inside, Hour Outside: Anyone trapped in the alternate universe of SCP-2503 must spend approximately 9,216 years walking inside of it (though without aging or needing to eat, drink, rest or sleep) to get out, while 80 hours pass on Earth.

SCP-2506 - Niles is a Fixer

SCP-2506 is Sarah Myo, a young Korean-American girl who has a high knowledge of mechanical engineering, and is capable of teleporting non-organic matter to her location from anywhere in the universe. She claims that the things she summons are being brought to her by SCP-2506-1, a toy crocodile she calls "Niles".
  • Accidental Murder: Sarah teleported a rocket engine from a prototype plane in flight. This wasn't malicious, as she doesn't know where the stuff she "grabs" comes from. It's unknown if anyone died but there was a definite crash.
  • Child Prodigy: Sarah's a potential Rocket Scientist who happens to have teleportation powers. She built an F1-Racer from stuff she "asked" her toy animal Niles to get her.
  • Magic Feather: Sarah thinks Niles is bringing her all the stuff she needs for her engines, but it's her powers grabbing the stuff.
  • Teleportation: Sarah Myo can teleport non-organic physical matter, without line-of-sight, by grabbing it from the universe and teleporting it to her location.

SCP-2507 - A Web Of Cliques

SCP-2507 is a species of giant spiders that sound like and behave like young girls. The spiders are known to talk about events at "Brachypelma Elementary School", which they apparently attended in the past.
  • All-Ghouls School: The conversations of the spider-like members of SCP-2507 refer to events at "Brachypelma Elementary School", which they apparently used to attend. Presumably this is a school whose student body is made up entirely of SCP-2507 (note: Brachypelma is a genus containing several species of tarantula).
  • Giant Spider: SCP-2507 are spider-like creatures with an average weight of 45 kilograms (~100 pounds) and average height of 3 meters (~10 feet).

SCP-2515 - Napoleon Crossing the Urals

SCP-2515 is a painting of Napoleon Bonaparte and his army marching through a mountain pass. Anyone who views the painting gains intricate information about it, even when the Foundation itself cannot. The information is lost when the person no longer views it.
  • Fake Memories: Anyone who sees the painting (whether directly or indirectly through photographs) apparently gains information about the painting (despite the Foundation being unable to find any information on it). They lose the information when they are no longer viewing it.

SCP-2519 - Cry me a river

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the multiple canons folder.

SCP-2523 - Goblin Market

SCP-2523 is a phenomenon that affects seasonal Halloween stores. Every year on Halloween night, the stores will be staffed by instances of SCP-2523-1, a race of humanoids that resemble goblins, who sell anomalous Halloween costumes and decorations in exchange for a random, intangible price.
  • Changeling Tale: In one of the listed transactions witnessed in SCP-2523, it is mentioned that a magic costume was exchanged for an 8-year-old boy, whose current whereabouts are unknown.
  • Cold Iron: Iron restraints are mentioned twice as being used to restrain the workers.
  • The Fair Folk: The workers refer to themselves as the Autumn People, come from a place called "the border country", make mystical deals with people, including trading for children, are apparently restrained by iron and seem to not have a full understanding of time. One makes reference to the Seelie and Unseelie Fae as well. There is also an implied connection between the workers and the entities in SCP-1323.
  • Halloween Episode: SCP-2523 is only active for a 24 hour period starting at sundown on Halloween. Bobby, one of the workers, explains that this is when the "gates" between here and "the border country" are open.
  • Intangible Price: The workers in SCP-2523 sell anomalous Halloween items in exchange for such things as "The memory of a childhood family trip", "The ability to sing" and "Empathy".
  • Land of Faerie: Bobby, one of the workers, mentions his people come from somewhere called "the border country" which can only be reached in autumn. He also makes reference to "the land of youth" and "the land of death."
  • A Year and a Day: When a person undergoes an Ejection Event (being thrown out of a SCP-2523 location), they suffer from bad luck for 366 days (365 days + 1 day), a year and a day.

SCP-2525 - Extraterrestrial Broadcaster

SCP-2525 is a polymer cylinder containing a viscous fluid that, each day, broadcasts propaganda to a junior researcher who has been transformed into an insectoid alien with immense strength.
  • Super-Strength: The original SCP-2525 was an alien creature powerful enough to puncture plate steel and break the restraints designed to hold it.
  • Technology Uplift: SCP-2525-1 (formerly Junior Researcher T██████ L███) has said that the aliens that sent SCP-2525 (the rocket-like device) did so to provide plans for advanced technology to humanity, and that they had done so for other primitive races as well.
  • Telepathy: The original SCP-2525 (currently SCP-2525-N) was an alien creature that could communicate with human beings using telepathy.

SCP-2547 - Dog Days of Summer

SCP-2547 is a large pack of canines that spontaneously appears in small rural towns in the United States. They are led by a coyote wearing a leather jacket, who hosts sermons about how they have been forgotten by modern society.
  • Forced Transformation: Anyone deemed to not meet SCP-2547-1's demands is turned into another canid.
  • Gods Need Prayer Badly: SCP-2547-1's sermons suggest he's Old Man Coyote trying to rebuild his following.
  • Intangible Price: In exchange for the water he stole from the town, SCP-2547-1 will accept material goods ranging from dead cats to peyote and men's button-up shirts, but prefers sexual favors and stories featuring him as the protagonist. After an interview with him the Foundation initiated Protocol DESERT GRASSROOTS to promote stories featuring him, with the result that SCP-2547 manifests less often, but no longer accepts stories as payment.
  • Kangaroo Court: In the Keter Duty SCP-001 proposal, this SCP is used to contain SCP-3852 — a phenomenon where a corpse appears in a rural town, the townspeople accuse an innocent of being the killer, then lynch them. SCP-2547 would appear to quarantine the town, with SCP-2547-1 holding a rigged trial to prove the accused's innocence, withholding the town's water supply hostage until innocence is proven, or confounding a jury of non-anomalous humans with circular arguments.
  • Sinister Minister: Three days after a pack of the SCP's instances arrive at a town and blockade it, a male coyote wearing a leather jacket will appear (designated SCP-2547-1), and it refers to itself as the Reverend and holds sermons on how modern society has forgotten SCP-2547-1 and its siblings.
  • Talking Animal: The instances making up SCP-2547 are canid animals (including dogs, foxes, wolves and coyotes) that are capable of speaking.

SCP-2549 - Animal Assassins

SCP-2549 is a phenomenon that causes a random carnivorous animal to attack and murder a random person. Humans who are not designated targets will act as though the affected animal is a friend or acquaintance until it kills the target.
  • Animal Assassin: The SCP is a phenomenon that causes a random carnivore to attack and kill a random human.
  • Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Anyone not designated as the target will act as if it were a friend or acquaintance, until it has reached and killed the target.

    2550- 2599 

SCP-2557, a Holding of Envelope Logistics®

SCP-2557 is currently a property of Envelope Logistics, an anomalous company that allows people across the universe to invest in abstract concepts as if they were stock. The company had bought the concept of 2557 from a Foundation employee, and have since changed its database entry into an advertisement for the company.
  • Delusions of Eloquence: Appears in the third testimonial, which is from an extradimensional entity attempting to speak English.
    V❊H❊Q❊H: Commissional, the boozing speech nontronite navigates visions of verbarspermophyta. Dietine overlooker seining, waddywood breathes, full breaths, malacostracology evident. Trip hammer, trip hammer, trip hammer, trip hammer.
  • Hostile Show Takeover: Envelope Logistics is a paranormal company which allows people to invest in abstract concepts as if they were buying and selling ordinary stocks and bonds. The company bought the concept of the SCP-2557 database entry from a Foundation employee, allowing them to change the database entry from a description of the company and how it's being contained to an ad for the company, complete with glowing testimonials and even a web form for creating an account with the company.
  • Intangible Price: Its entry is one of these itself, with the concept of SCP-2557 as a set of containment procedures being sold to an extradimensional banking firm. The article contains testionials from other investors who have made bank by trading on things such as "cancer rates in Selkirk, Manitoba", "the effectiveness of new HR policies at E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company", and "Tony Blair's poltical career".
  • invokedNo Such Thing as Bad Publicity: As long as you can get someone else to think of it, that's another lump of cash for your Envelope account. Whether it's that ridiculous idea you cooked up last night, something you're personally invested in, or the continued proliferation of all human pain and suffering, Envelope's got a paycheck with your name on it once it goes around enough people.
  • Not-So-Harmless Villain: It's basically an institutionalized form of betting on ridiculous ideas. Though it seems lighthearted at first and its occupation of SCP-2557's slot a cheap joke at the Foundation's expense at first, it's quickly pointed out that it can be used to literally extract cold hard cash from human suffering as long as the investor knows what cause to bet on. The advert even flat-out admits if you want to bet on the proliferation of gender dysphoria, you can. Just ask the agent in Utica who actually sold that plan to someone.
  • Painting the Medium: Combines this with Hostile Show Takeover. The database entry on SCP-2557 used to describe the Foundation's attempts to contain Envelope Logistics. But then a Foundation employee sold to that company the abstract concept of the database entry on SCP-2557, allowing them to edit the database entry into an ad for their services.

Allison Eckhart - Allison Eckhart

SCP-2565, formerly known as Allison Eckhart, was a Foundation researcher who infects anything she interacts with (or anything that interacts with her), which will then be perceived by everyone in the vicinity as Allison Eckhart.
  • Painting the Medium: Throughout the article, Allison Eckhart, along with her bodily fluids and internal organs (and anything contaminated with any traces of them, such as cloud formations and the people in Australia that they rain on), is continually referred to as Allison Eckhart. It even extends to the regrets given for the deaths resulting from a certain raid to obtain her waste products that resulted in casualties on both sides.
  • The End of the World as We Know It: A Group of Interest obtains the waste samples of the titular semantic pointer and uses them to infect the world, causing every physical object on Earth to be defined, perceived, and only able to be referred to as Allison Eckhart.
  • Grey Goo: What the semantic property "Allison Eckhart" becomes after Eckhart's waste products are incinerated and eventually infect several clouds in the Pacific Ocean, along with several Australian people.

SCP-2571 - Cragglewood Park

SCP-2571 is Cragglewood Park, the setting of an anomalous childhood memory. People who have had memories of the park describe it as a single carousel full of sentient, laughing trees. Any children that rode on the carousel have been known to disappeared in real life.
  • Amusement Park of Doom: While at first SCP-2571 comes across as a regular amusement park, it becomes more and more apparent that it isn't so simple. Many of the people who experienced dreams of the location describe it as a nightmare no matter how pleasant the dream may seem, with the content of these dreams implying that the kids are only pretending they are having a good time lest the trees see them unhappy. Then of course there is the very real possibility that many of the children seen on the carousel were abducted and evidently erased from history.
  • Analog Horror: The only physical evidence of Cragglewood Park is a cassette tape showing a recording of the location.
  • And Then John Was a Zombie: The sibling who sacrifices themself to save the other is implied to be transformed into one of the trees.
  • Kick the Dog: It's one thing to convert all those missing kids into trees and render them Ret-Gone. It's another to ensure their remaining siblings still have to face all of the psychological trauma typical of such a great loss regardless.
  • Ret-Gone: Those effected by SCP-2571 are all raised as only children, but it is implied that many of the unfamiliar children on the carousel were the dreamer's siblings, having vanished by whatever anomaly that causes the nightmares.
  • The Trees Have Faces: A recurring trend in Cragglewood Park is the presence of trees with faces (many of the dreamers claiming that they resemble their own), often singing or laughing, and seem to induce an almost psychotic terror in the dreamer. Whatever they are, the children at Cragglewood are terrified of the trees and will pretend to be happy to avoid... whatever they would do otherwise.

SCP-2576 - Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Goat

SCP-2576 is a memetic entity calling itself "Discordious, the Harbinger of Chaos" that somehow became trapped in the form of a rainbow-colored goat by Joseph Abbasi, a Pakistani goat herder, who calls it "Pooki." It is capable of speech, but cannot exist away from Mr. Abbasi or physically interact with objects.
  • Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: It appears as a goat with constantly shifting rainbow-colored fur to onlookers.
  • Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!: In one recorded incident, it started ranting about “the frailty of this dismal existence” and “the absolution of truth that all wicked souls must face” before being distracted by a laser pointer.
  • Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Despite being a completely ordinary person by all accounts, Mr. Abbasi somehow managed to trap a powerful memetic entity in the form of a goat.
  • Eldritch Abomination: Mr. Abbasi describes its initial form as "an eye, but also many eyes" against a rainbow sky.
  • Harmless Villain: It constantly rambles about killing people and destroying the world, but is incapable of carrying out any of its threats due to the form it is trapped in.
    Dr. Baqoori: Has the goat ever harmed you, or anyone else?
    Mr. Abbasi: No. You know he’s not really there, right? He’s not real.
    SCP-2576: -where I will ravage your very being and obliterate your pitiful essence, your suckling children will weep for merciful death after I-
    Mr. Abbasi: Pooki, go lie down.
    SCP-2576: I am Discordious, Harbinger of Chaos, and I will come for you, domesticated human sheep, petrified of true power. I taste blood and steel. YOU ARE UNDER ATTACK. (pauses) But I will go lie down, as I desire to rest for a short time. (glares at Mr. Abbasi and Dr. Baqoori) You would do well to tremble amongst yourselves while I slumber.
  • Invisible to Normals: People cannot see or hear SCP-2576 until they are told that it exists.
  • My Instincts Are Showing: After being trapped in the form of a goat, it has started to behave like one, enjoying being scratched behind the ears and fed oats.
  • Sealed Evil in a Can: What Mr. Abbasi believes SCP-2576 is.
    Mr. Abbasi: I think wherever Pooki came from, he must have been a big deal. He came here expecting to be a big deal here too, but...how big a deal can something be if it can get trapped as a dream goat in a poor herder’s head? (laughs) He’s funny, though. I don’t mind keeping him around. Better here as a goat than somewhere else that he could cause trouble, eh?
  • Shapeshifter Mode Lock: It became stuck in the form of a goat after invading Mr. Abbasi's dream about goats.
  • Shout-Out: Its name is a reference to Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

SCP-2578 - "This Machine Kills Fascists"

SCP-2578 refers to a series of political assassinations carried out by SCP-2578-D, an extraterrestrial machine developed by the Three Moons Initiative. The machine is capable of sending emails to fascist political figures warning them to change their policies. If the recipient does not change said policies within a period of 72 hours, they will be killed via a bullet hole that suddenly manifests in their head.
  • Affably Evil: Evil being subjective, the tone it expresses through its emails seem genuine in its benevolence to people. It ends most of its emails with reassurances of its love.
  • Apologetic Attacker: Before it kills all the Foundation personnel guarding SCP-1427 to stop them from getting in its way, it sends apologetic e-mails to their families.
  • Badass Boast: Its first contact with its targets is always an email listing their exact coordinates followed by "I never miss my mark. Abdicate and you will live."
  • Cool Ship: 2578-D is a horseshoe-crab-shaped ship 3 meters in length that is used to carry out the executions. The Foundation theorizes that there is no utilitarian reason why the spaceship looks like a horseshoe crab, and that it is a purely aesthetic choice.
  • Dirty Coward: SCP-2578 makes a point of warning its targets 72 hours in advance. Ioan Lupescu, president-elect of Romania, grew agitated as his scheduled time got closer, and let his 4-year-old daughter ride on his shoulders, implying that he tried to use his daughter as a human shield; 2578 simply broke from its usual modus operandi and shot him in the chest instead.
  • Exactly What It Says on the Tin: It is an extraterrestrial machine that kills totalitarian leaders.
  • Friendly Sniper: 2578 is always affable and polite in its communications to the people it's protecting and the Foundation. It's also never missed a shot.
  • Hurl It into the Sun: After 2578-D destroyed SCP-1427, it took the latter's remains into orbit; the fragments of 1427 were last seen drifting towards the sun.
  • Judge, Jury, and Executioner: As a representative of the [Triple Crescent] Initiative, a sort of multiversal police force, SCP-2578 unilaterally judges and executes political leaders. Interestingly, it warns its targets 72 hours in advance, and will cancel the execution if the target repents of their actions or resigns.
  • Kill Sat: It's a spacecraft in high Earth orbit that kills fascist political figures by sniping them from orbit.
  • Not So Stoic: Downplayed. When it failed to kill SCP-682, SCP-2578 sent a mail where it pointed out that it did not miss, suggesting that it finds such insinuations offensive.
  • Orbital Bombardment: Its preferred method of tyrant removal is to snipe its targets in the head from orbit.
  • Pay Evil unto Evil: Mercilessly murders tyrants if they don't step down or repent of their actions.
  • Retcon: The article originally ended with SCP-2578 delivering ultimatums to the entire O5 council on the basis of all the morally-questionable and totalitarian stuff the Foundation is up to. It was replaced with a detailed log of it destroying SCP-1427, making it come off as less hostile overall.
  • Shoot the Hostage Taker: One of the targets tried to save himself by using a young girl as a human shield. SCP-2578 made a point of shooting him through the chest—rather than the head—to avoid injuring his hostage.
  • Shout-Out: The title is a reference to the text on Woody Guthrie's guitar.
  • Sigil Spam: 2578 makes its presence known by the symbol of three crescent moons, which it uses as the address name in its emails and are on 2578-D.
  • Totalitarian Utilitarian: It ironically acts as a benevolent dictator with trying to help humans as a whole by forcing tyrannical leaders to either accept its demands or get murdered.
  • Tyrannicide: Its entire purpose is to execute those it deems tyrants.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: Its methods aren't exactly subtle, even if it claims they are benevolent, causing the Foundation to have to scapegoat D-Class for 2578's murders. An example of its extreme methods is when 2578 destroyed SCP-1427 causing the latter to send a giant psychic backlash, horribly breaking the minds of those it affected. 2578 then sent an email saying that while it regrets the outcome, the people on a whole are still better off than a day before.
  • The Worf Effect: SCP-1427 was a Keter-level, mind-affecting anomaly so serious, the SCP Foundation had to prop up the government of North Korea just to contain it. SCP-2578 destroys it in less than ten minutes, albeit suffering severe (though not irreparable) structural damage from energy expenditure in the process. (And the original author of SCP-1427 was totally cool with his SCP being neutralized like that.)

SCP-2582 - Hammer & Nail

SCP-2582 occurs to people who enter the men's restroom in a sports bar in Raleigh, North Carolina. Whenever their eyes are closed, they see a large, flat, grey surface and hear the sounds of a handyman at work.
  • Poke in the Third Eye: In one case an experimental subject had a nail hammered through their pineal gland (an organ that some consider to be a "third eye" and involved in psychic abilities).

SCP-2590 - Trailer Trash

SCP-2590 is a truck driven by a featureless humanoid that can phase through walls. The truck will occasionally park itself and open its trunk, revealing a random object inside.
  • Bigger on the Inside: When Alpha Squad followed SCP-2590 into an abandoned warehouse, it ended up going down a kilometer-long tunnel that doesn't exist in the real world.
  • Year Outside, Hour Inside: During its pursuit of SCP-2590, Alpha Squad lost contact with the Foundation. When it re-appeared almost three and a half years later, as far as it was concerned only fifteen minutes had passed.

SCP-2592 - Milk and Bananas

SCP-2592 is an eyeless humanoid with strong telepathic abilities. It uses these abilities to detect nearby humans, transmit hallucinations in their minds, and induce intense fear in them when it is frightened.
  • Supernatural Fear Inducer: If SCP-2592 is frightened or startled, it will use its Telepathy ability to cause intense fear in any human beings nearby.
  • Telepathy: SCP-2592 can use its telepathy in the following ways.
    • Detect the presence of human beings within 5 meters.
    • Transmit hallucinations of the beach near its old home and the sound of ocean surf to all humans within ten meters.
    • When frightened or startled, induce intense fear or pain in nearby human beings. Prolonged exposure can cause neurological trauma.

SCP-2599 - Not Good Enough

SCP-2599 is Zena Cho, a 14-year-old girl from South Korea. Zena is physically and impulsively unable to disobey any order that she is given, and will instantly work to complete it with surprising accuracy. While she does manage to fulfill peoples' requests, Zena is never able to carry out the orders to absolute completion.

    2600- 2649 

SCP-2600 - The Empty Box

SCP-2600 are 8 CRT televisions, each one labeled MK-PRO-8-POL. The televisions constantly display footage of warfare and missing people. Anyone who touches one of the sets will experience the same effects associated with ingesting LSD. Adjusting the switches of the sets is able to control a subject's emotional state.

SCP-2602 - Exbibliothetic

SCP-2602, which used to be a library, was a building that used to be a library up until 1988. The building, which used to be a library, began to manifest anomalous properties in 2004, and what exactly occurred in between this time is unknown to the Foundation, but it has been made clear that it was inactive use as a former library. People who talk about 2602, which used to be a library, also feel the need to constantly remind others that 2602 was a library.
  • Department of Redundancy Department: Did you know SCP-2602 used to be a library? Well, that's what it was up until 1988.
  • Gas Leak Cover Up: Appears to be the subject of a particularly forceful and memetic one. It's clear that some serious stuff is going on there - torture devices, radiation, suspicious shrines, a toxic waste pit - but whatever anamlous effect its under forces people thinking about it to believe those things are either normal for an ex-library, or to creatively reinterpret them as library standards (e.g. the torture devices become "book binding machines"). As noted in the report, this means that no one can ever refer to what was going on in the building between the time it ceased to be a library and when the Foundation found it - rendering the entire time Unpersoned.
  • Implausible Deniability: All anomalous attributes of SCP-2602 are due to the fact that it used to be a library. This includes the presence of Artifacts of Doom, a deadly wastepit, and what appears to be a cult ritual chamber lined with human skulls.
  • Insistent Terminology: Anyone referring to the SCP, which used to be a library, always mentions that it used to be a library.
  • Tomato in the Mirror: The microfiches in the library imply the building used to be a Foundation front or site, as the anthropology sections contain files for Eastern Samothrace (SCP-1173), Eudaimonia (SCP-752), and Fritz Williams (the Administrator.) An instance of SCP-2140-1 is also partially visible in one of the microfiches, even though all of said instances (and not the Daevite magic it was based on) should be in Foundation custody.
  • Painting the Medium: The SCP, which used to be a library, causes people to reference that it used to be a library. Accordingly, the article is filled with the fact that the SCP used to be a library. This even goes outside of the article, as all links on the SCP wiki to the article will include the fact that it used to be a library.
  • Unusually Uninteresting Sight: The key anomalous attribute of SCP-2601, which used to be library, is that all all other anomalous attributes of the SCP (which are very many, as one would expect from a former library) will be attributed to the fact that it used to be a library.

SCP-2606 - Verminous Vessel

SCP-2606 is a drinking glass made from amber that contains many preserved insects. If a body part of a creature considered vermin is put inside the glass and a person consumes it, the person will gain the ability to read the mind of any instance of the creature within 10 meters.
  • Fictional Color: When a person under the influence of SCP-2606 made telepathic contact with an octopus, they saw vivid colors that they could not describe, presumably those that an octopus can see but humans can't.
  • Telepathy: SCP-2606 is a drinking glass made from polished amber. If any body part of a creature generally considered to be "vermin" is put in SCP-2606 and a human being consumes the body part, the person gains the ability to read the minds of all examples of that creature within ten meters.

SCP-2610 - Procreation

SCP-2610 is The Colony, a family of anomalous humanoids created via genetic engineering. They are capable of producing mutant, inbred children at an enhanced rate.
  • Ambiguously Christian: Despite Simeon's Biblically charged rhetoric, not one reference to Jesus can be found. Their sexual practices also place them far beyond the orthodoxy of any mainstream Christian denomination.
  • Angelic Abomination: Simeon described the "angel" who visited him and ordered him to found his cult as having "flesh [that] rippled and tore, and light shined through the cracks like the sun".
  • Body Horror: SCP-2610-E are altered human beings produced by genetic engineering and inbreeding. They have a variety of serious physical differences such as added or missing body parts (limbs, eyes, ears, etc.), collapsed rib cages, protruding stomachs and large growths.
  • Breeding Cult: SCP-2610's activities began when Simeon was visited by an "angel", who allegedly charged him with the divine mission of creating a "New Eden" by populating the world with his and his siblings' mutated progeny, remaking the world in "God's"note  image.
  • Immune to Bullets: SCP-2610-E are mutated human beings who are effectively immune to small arms fire.
  • Meaningful Name: The designation, SCP-2610, is very evocative of SCP-610, and works well with the SCP's implicit connections to sarkicism.
  • Never Found the Body: After Incident Tango-Tango, the ships carrying the entire Colony are sunk. However, the remains of Simeon, Armond, or Yvette Avakian were not found in the wreckage, making it possible that they might have escaped.
  • Religious Horror: The cult's eeriness is not only derived from their Villainous Incest or the mutants that make up its ranks, but also the way everything is justified via the quasi-Biblical language of "writing the New Testament of Creation".
  • Seeing Through Another's Eyes: SCP-2610-A (Simeon Avakian) can use his telepathy ability to enter the mind of a lobotomized patient and use their senses, including seeing through their eyes and hearing through their ears. He later refines this ability to control entire armies of SCP-2610-E.
  • Super-Strength: The mutated humans known as SCP-2610-E are described in a report as being "Inhumanly strong" and capable of ripping a human being apart limb from limb.
  • Telepathy: SCP-2610-A (Simeon Avakian) has the ability to mentally reach out and see the images and impulses in other people's minds.
  • Twisted Eucharist: Males served "the tears of [Simeon's] sin" with wine gain his anomalous reproductive abilities.
  • Villainous Incest: One of the many squicky things about the article is that all the 2610-Es were born from the "seeding" between -C (Yvette Avakian) and her brothers.
  • White Sheep: Simeon's journal notes that his youngest brother (-D, Jorge Avakian), while initially cooperative in deliverance, ended up resisting them and attempts to conspire against the group. He was fed to the SCP-2610-Es (or "the children" as Simeon calls them).

SCP-2611 - Large and In Charge

SCP-2611 is a human female who is the current host to a sentient lump of fat tissue (SCP-2611-1) that forces her unconsciously consume a vast amount of unhealthy junk food and televison to keep it satiated, as a result she has become morbidly obese.
  • And I Must Scream: SCP-2611 is only conscious for two hours a day and has little to no control of her situation.
  • Big Eater: SCP-2611 due to SCP-2611-1's influence.

SCP-2612 - The Weight of the World [striked out] A Donkey and Its Cart

SCP-2612 is believed to be a donkey carrying the woes and responsibilities of the world on a cart. It is also believed to have once been the very seat of the Universe.
  • Clap Your Hands If You Believe: People in the past thought that the donkey was responsible for carrying all the woes and responsibilities of the world, and the weight got heavier and heavier until it became Atlas. So the site director neutralized it by convincing the containment team that it was just another cognitohazard like that book which turned into a hypochondriac money sink.
  • Dumb Muscle: The donkey is sentient and ancient, and capable of pulling a 2,000,000-ton cart of nuclear dirt, but is also outright stupid. At no point did it ever realize that it could convince others that it was just a stupid donkey pulling a cart of dirt and people would will it back into its original form. The site director went a little further and turned it into a lawn ornament.

SCP-2614 - Sometimes I Go Out In Pity for Myself

SCP-2614 is an anomalous DVD of season 5 of The Sopranos. Pressing the "play" button on any nearby DVD remote during a certain scene enables the user to control the camera, allowing them to take it anywhere in the Sopranos universe. While it mostly allows the user to view alternate perspectives of certain events (including ones that take place between Time Skips), moving the camera into a screen playing a Show Within a Show allows that show's universe to be entered.
  • Author Powers: What the apparent presence of a DMRG hypermodel and thus the sixth layer corresponds to, given that it is described in the context of the manipulation of fiction.
  • Demiurge Archetype: The Foundation is aware of a theoretical pataphysical hypermodel codenamed "DMRG," as in "demiurge." They learn the hard way that the sixth layer of SCP-2614 is in fact either one of these or is a pipeline to a character that plays the trope straight (thereby revealing the Foundation is fictional themselves), and halt testing the moment they realize what's going on.
  • Noticing the Fourth Wall: Testing is halted after the Foundation realizes the sixth layer is functionally identical to a pataphysical archetype codenamed "DMRG," for a very good reason.
  • Retcon: It's implied the Demiurge Archetype twist within the sixth layer involves an actual entity, but the article was much more overt about this by including an image of said entity reaching for the camera. It was most likely taken out to improve the horror of the twist.
  • Show Within a Show: The article talks about how, in pataphysics, these are essentially nested universes within universes, and SCP-2614 turns out to have the ability to tunnel into said worlds. However, each layer becomes progressively degraded, and the sixth layer is but an empty hallway very heavily implied to contain a Demiurge Archetype that controls the Foundation universe.

SCP-2615 and SCP-2615-J - If You Believe/Clap Your Hands

SCP-2615 is a race of creatures that supposedly resemble archetypal fairies. They are capable of disrupting reality around them, and their civilization expands as more people know about them. The Foundation has kept a close eye on these creatures, as a complete manifestation of them would spell certain doom for the Foundation's secrecy.
  • Bizarre Alien Biology: Members of SCP-2615 have an internal organ that enables them to make minor local alterations to reality - essentially a 'magic gland'.
  • Broken Masquerade: Complete manifestation of SCP-2615 would result in this for all anomalies - and anyone who knows anything about the Foundation will know that for them, this is not an option.
  • Cold Iron: One of the Mobile Task Forces that deals with SCP-2615 manifestations is named after it. The history of the full-manifestation timeline contains a mundane source of fairies' fear of it: early observation of tetanus infections.
  • Cosmic Retcon: Their presence in not just the universe but its entire timeline is directly proportional to how many people believe in them.
  • Cross-Referenced Titles: The phrase 'clap your hands if you believe' is split between the titles of the two articles.
  • The Fair Folk: The real deal - though not quite as far-fetched than commonly believed. They're not tiny or winged, for starters.
  • Hidden in Plain Sight: In more ways than one (i.e. two). Containing SCP-2615 involved reducing belief in them, which involved spreading wild rumors and stories about them being tiny and having butterfly wings etc. But with all the impossible stuff the Foundation deals with, its faculty are particularly likely to seriously consider that fairies are real in some form, despite all the embellishments, necessitating a -J joke article that makes the concept of fairies secretly being an SCP look ridiculous.
  • Land of Faerie: In the full-manifestation timeline, the 'fairy' nations become chock full of anomalies.
  • Our Fairies Are Different: Indeed, the fact that the 'fairies' differ significantly from the common public view of the concept is the entire point of the Foundation's popularization of that view in the first place.
  • Painting the Fourth Wall: SCP-2615-J is in the -J list like any other -J entry.
  • Real Event, Fictional Cause: Containing SCP-2615 required the Foundation to invent the concept of fairies.

SCP-2622 - Ambassador from the Mole People

SCP-2622 is a humanoid with mole-like features. He claims to be a representative from an underground civilization known as the Terra Inertia Empire.
  • The Münchausen: SCP-2622 tells bizarre stories about gigantic underground caverns and the civilizations that live in them. His stories repeatedly contradict each other and despite extensive investigation the Foundation hasn't been able to find any evidence at all to support them.
  • Silicon-Based Life: According to SCP-2622's stories there's a cavern called “The Fire Plain” located under the south-central Pacific Ocean. It's inhabited by silicon-based crystal animals.
  • Weakened by the Light: SCP-2622 is extremely sensitive to light. He experiences severe eye pain in normal (or brighter) lighting conditions.

SCP-2635 - Hot Potato

SCP-2635 is a deadly twist on a classic children's game. It's a red potato that gradually causes half of the number of people in a group to die within a year. The same rules apply to any person who holds the potato by themselves.
  • Spontaneous Combustion: If the SCP is held by an organization for a year, half of its members will die in this manner. If it's held by one person for a year, they will die the same way.

SCP-2645 - Through the Looking Glass

SCP-2645 is a mirror that can open to a completely mirrored dimension. The mirror dimension's inhabitants are capable of killing people it is left in the dark.
  • Alternate Universe: The anomalous mirror SCP-2645 has another universe accessible through its mirrored surface that is initially identical to the SCP Foundation's universe. The contents of that universe can be changed by the influence of entities in the Foundation's universe.
  • Magic Mirror: SCP-2645 is a full-length mirror which connects to an identical Alternate Universe. When anything touches the surface of SCP-2645, instead of touching the mirror's surface it touches a duplicate of itself from the other universe.

    2650- 2699 

SCP-2650 - Pediatric Pupaphobia

SCP-2650-A is a ventriloquist dummy that contains the brain of the ventriloquist who created it. The body of the ventriloquist himself, designated SCP-2650-B, has a wooden sphere in place of its brain.
  • Food Pills: SCP-2650-B is fed Capsule Rations (food in capsule form).
  • The Virus: If SCP-2650-B can get a preadolescent child (between the ages of 5 and 9) alone, he can change them so that they're like him and under his control.

SCP-2656 - The Idiot Box

SCP-2656 is a television set that causes permanent brain damage in any subject that views it for longer than a few seconds.
  • Body Horror: When it's switched on, it will cause irreversible brain damage (including dissection) to any human subjects that view it for longer than a few seconds.

SCP-2657 - Puppet Master

SCP-2657 is a giant orb-weaving spider that prefers to lure in its prey by puppeteering human corpses. The spider is also capable of imitating voices, which it uses during its puppeteering.
  • Giant Spider: It is an orb-weaving spider 2.7 m (around nine feet) across.
  • It Can Think: Downplayed. The capture log shows that it was practicing building lures, getting better and better with experience. However, the attempt to interview it clearly shows that it has no actual understanding of the speech it mimics. It may be smarter than the average spider, but it's still just an animal.
  • Monster Is a Mommy: SCP-2657 is female and had a nest of eggs. Most of these were destroyed, but some were hatched and dissected.
  • To Serve Man: Killed and ate a number of people before being captured, and even developed a strategy to lure people in by mimicking a child in distress. That child is implied to have been its first victim.
  • Voice Changeling: It can perfectly mimic sounds it has heard, including human voices, and couples these sounds with puppets made out of webbing to make a more effective lure. It prefers to mimic a young girl's cries for help, implied to be those of its first victim. Notably, it does not actually understand what it's saying - it only knows that certain words and phrases lure people in, and when spoken to it just mindlessly repeats those words.

SCP-2662 - cthulhu f'UCK OFF!

SCP-2662 is a large, tentacled, humanoid creature that causes cults and religions to spontaneously form from people around him. The cults have a tendency to treat 2662 as a chaotic deity that must constantly be appeased through violent and profane rituals. Ironically, 2662 displays the mentality of a typical human teenager, and responds to these rituals with shock and horror, much like a normal person would. It even got to the point where he willingly turned himself in to the Foundation so he could escape his "followers", but since Foundation staff aren't immune to his abilities, such is unfortunately not the case.
  • Brown Note Being: He is classified as a "cognitohazardous entity", as any human who spends regular interactions with him is driven mad with a desire to worship him in increasingly esoteric and perverse ways, with cults manifesting around his worship at least once a month that the SCP Foundation has to put up with. Unfortunately for him, SCP-2662 has no way of turning this off and finds their insane devotion to him off-putting and unsanitary.
  • Conditioned to Accept Horror: While he is still disgusted by his worshipers' actions, he's grown somewhat accustomed to it, albeit annoyed.
    <8:29> SCP-2662 attempts to read its newspaper. Researcher ████ slits the piglet's neck and throws it onto the table. Blood splatters the newspaper.
    <8:30> SCP-2662: "I- what? Look, can you go read a bible or something? You really, really need it."
  • Cult: At least once a month a cult will spring around the worship of him, usually by doing inhuman practices and somehow breaking into his containment to do it in front of him. He wishes they would stop doing blood orgies.
  • Eldritch Abomination: Played for Laughs; it's basically a teenage equivalent to an Elder God that does normal teen stuff, and really hates the cults that come to him to the point of having the Foundation contain him.
  • Humanoid Abomination: He's vaguely humanoid standing 4 meters in height with 20 vestigial tentacles on his back and is a Brown Note Being that inspires worship and madness onto humans below a 2 on the Mind-Affecting Resistance Scale. Personality wise, he's just a teenager with a love for video games.
  • Leaking Can of Evil: A case where the evil would very much like for the can to stop leaking, but isn't able to.
  • Might as Well Not Be in Prison at All: Being in prison is actually instrumental to his goal (which is currently being left alone), he has everything he needs or wants while in prison, and he anticipates that he'll eventually grow strong enough to break out if he really wants to. He might even be right. Oh, and The Guards Must Be Crazy is often entirely literal.
  • Shower of Angst: The reaction to one cult managing to break into its bedroom at 4:00AM:
    SCP-2662 moves to the shower stall and turns on the water. It sits in the shower stall for the remainder of the incident.
  • Stop Worshipping Me: His attitude towards the many cultists that break into his room.
  • Too Spicy for Yog-Sothoth: He is completely disgusted by the rituals his cultists enact in his name.
  • Unwanted Harem:

SCP-2663 - Dionysus

SCP-2663 is a massive collection of yeast. The yeast cells in these colonies are known to communicate telepathically and display human intellect when multiple individuals are brought together.
  • Hive Mind: SCP-2663 is 250 pounds of yeast. The individual cells are normal, but when they're together they have the intelligence of an adult human being.
  • Telepathy: SCP-2663 can use telepathy to communicate with anyone within 10 meters.

SCP-2664 - Redline

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the multiple canons folder.

SCP-2669 - Khevtuul 1

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the Project Heimdall folder.

SCP-2678 - A City All of Blood

SCP-2678 is a doorway in the Siena Cathedral that will transport any Catholic who walks through it into a replica of Siena, Italy, where the dwellings are composed of the bones of young boys and the rains often turn to blood.
  • Brown Note: Those that spend long enough in SCP-2678 exhibit permanent changes in their personality, including a love for choir music, greater religiosity, higher respect in authority (up to and including a reluctance to rat out Foundation staff guilty of a crime) and an increased contempt for those lower than them on the social or economic ladder.
  • Eldritch Location: It's a Floating Continent in another dimension. It's the size of a city, its various buildings being nothing but churches and palaces made out of human bone and it's raining human blood in perpetuity.
  • Human Resources: The blood-rain has been found to be human blood and all of the buildings in the city are constructed out of the bones of adolescent boys.
  • Magic Music: Whenever someone holds down a note on the pipe organ, the rain turns into water until the note is broken. Due to how saturated the builds are with blood, the building remain permanently red regardless.
  • Reimagining the Artifact: In-Universe. It seems that the SCP Foundation wasn't the first Group of Interest to have contained SCP-2678, as the doorway that leads to it had a metal placard labeled "SCP Foundation Department of Abnormalities" right next to it.

SCP-2679 - The Many Graves of Jeannette Parslov

SCP-2679 is the Sleepy Oak Meadow Cemetery. On a daily basis, tombstones will emerge from the cemetery's soil, each one reading the name "Jeannette Parslov". Coffins containing the remains of unidentified organisms will manifest underground near these tombstones.
  • Body Horror: Each successive body in SCP-2679 evolves into something that can better survive and escape its grave until it no longer resembles anything human.
  • Determinator: Jeannette Parslov is determined to rise from her grave and return to her family. Too bad it cost her her humanity.
  • Goal-Oriented Evolution: All the bodies found in SCP-2679 are the results of Jeannette Parslov evolving so she can escape her grave.

SCP-2682 - The Blind Idiot

SCP-2682 was a purple raspberry stuck to a roll of flypaper. Capable of communication with people through telepathy, 2682 claims that it was once a primitive being that ascended to godhood, devouring the gods of eight other dimensions for its own amusement. It also claims to know the history of the universe, but when it discovered that it was a simple fruit, it ate itself.

SCP-2686 - Moon Wizard

SCP-2686 is Nyperius, a wizard who lives in a cottage on the moon. Nyperius claims to have many magical abilities, but is unable to perform any actual acts of magic. He claims that this is because his powers come from exposure to moonlight, and living on the moon itself is depriving him of access to his power source.
  • Familiar: He claims to have a cat named "Commodore Buckles" who brings him food, but the Foundation has never seen it.
  • Lunacy: The wizard draws his power from moonlight. Unfortunately, this means he has no power on the moon.
  • Wizard Classic: Wears the stereotypical Robe and Wizard Hat, and claims to have traditional wizard powers.
  • Wizards from Outer Space: He's a wizard on the moon. Unfortunately, since he draws his power from "the light of the moon above", and while he's on the moon all of the moon is below him, he has no way of getting back to Earth.

    2700- 2749 

SCP-2700 - Teleforce

SCP-2700 is an energy weapon designed by Nikola Tesla. If the weapon is fired or its power source is released, it will recreate the universe with a sort of anti-entropy.
  • Apocalypse How: Class X-4 Universal Destruction. The particles the death ray fires are not plasma. They are anomalous particles with reverse entropic properties, and will cause the entire universe to undergo a Big Crunch (a YK-Class Entropic Annihilation Event) when they are programmed to fire in 2234.
  • Beethoven Was an Alien Spy: Nikola Tesla successfully invented a Death Ray, with technology that is waaay ahead of his time. It's not just that. Tesla traveled to an Alternate Dimension with a Dimensional Traveler to help the traveler's scientific ventures and to help invent his death ray.
  • Death Ray: THE Tesla death ray, teleforce, with some highly advanced technology allowing it to fire plasma streams. Except that it's not firing plasma. It fires a bundle of particles with reversed entropy flow, and could turn the entire universe's time backwards should it fire.
  • Mundane Utility: The SCP's study of Tesla's document regarding 2700 within SCP-2400 led them to accidentally create another, stable version of 2700, which acts as a Perpetual Motion Machine and is used to power SCP's site within SCP-2400. Due to unintentional creation, the plan to reverse the creation of the reactor in order to discover the precise way to stabilize 2700 on Earth is still pending O5 approval due to possibility of YK-class event.
  • Humans Are Bastards: Tesla holds this view after his own travel to the alternate dimension. He saw how the world around him is breaking down into a political mess (he was near the onset of World War 1), and he saw how he himself tried to go to a peaceful universe to complete a weapon of war. He found humanity to be vastly inferior to the Alternate Dimension he traveled to, and decided to bring the teleforce back just to not doom the superior universe.
  • Humans Are the Real Monsters: The Watcher (one of the aliens Tesla met in the Alternate Dimension) holds this view on humans after viewing Tesla's journal. He realized that Tesla was here to build a weapon for war, not to advance science. He decided to rig Tesla's death ray into firing the reverse entropic particles.

SCP-2701 - True Solitary

SCP-2701 consist of a prison cell and a clipboard with the headings "NAME" and "RELEASE DATE" written on it. If someone fitting the clipboard's criteria enters the cell, they will be transported into a void until their time is up.
  • Fate Worse than Death: The last release date marked on the form is in the 34th century, meaning that some prisoners sent into cell 667 would experience at least 300,000 years of full sensory deprivation.
  • Go Mad from the Isolation: People put inside cell 667 experience full sensory deprivation, suffering mental trauma that causes cognitive shutdown or mania. Those incarcerated for less than two hours end up with one or more phobias (such as nyctophobia, photophobia, claustrophobia or agoraphobia) or serious mental illnesses such as dementia, catatonia and anorexia. Those spending more than 2 hours inside usually suffer a complete psychological breakdown.
  • Hellhole Prison: ███████ State Penitentiary, the prison that housed Cell 667, was turned into an atypical hellhole prison, where every single prisoner is locked in a nigh-eternal state of sensory deprivation. Even before that happened, Samuel Decard relieved all the guards and staff and kept all the prisoners in their cells, feeding them enough to keep them alive, before sending them to Cell 667.
  • Number of the Beast: Cell 667, the cell with supernatural properties, is 666 + 1.
  • Pay Evil unto Evil: After years of overseeing depraved prisoners and witnessing one criminal incident that targeted his daughter, Emily, prison warden Samuel Decard snapped and sent every single prisoner into cell 667.
  • Screw the Money, I Have Rules!: The anomaly was discovered when the defense attorney for one of the incarcerated criminals tried to contact his client, and when the warden tried to bribe him instead contacted the authorities.
  • When the Clock Strikes Twelve: On the date that a prisoner is scheduled to be released, the door of cell 667 closes and locks at midnight and the prisoner reappears within the cell.
  • Year Inside, Hour Outside: A person stored in cell 667 experiences a period of incarceration 300-400 times as long as occurs in the real world. One prisoner was in the cell for 15 minutes and thought he had been inside for weeks. Someone inside it for two hours would experience a period of 25-33 days.

SCP-2703 - For a Good Time Call

SCP-2703 is a message displaying a phone number that is found on newspapers, websites, and bathroom stalls. When the phone number is dialed, it summons a benevolent female creature that takes the caller out for a night on the town.
  • Benevolent Monsters: Despite what you'd think, she has no ulterior motive when it comes to interacting with humans. All she wants is to have a fun night on the town; she even conjures up cash to pay for the dinner-and-a-movie.
  • Innocent Innuendo: She's ignorant of the... unsavory connotations of the phrase "For a good time, call [phone number]". In fact, she'll only manifest if one has the phrase's literal meaning in mind when calling her. Even then, she'll only go to relatively innocuous locales like restaurants, movie theaters and bars.
  • Large Ham: While there are no interview logs, her penchant for singing in a operatic style as normal speech certainly implies this. That, and she likes to refer to herself as "Countess of Folas, Duchess of Fatyma and Marquisette of Dispria".
  • Mix-and-Match Critters: She's a three-legged bird-like creature... with leopard's ears, goat/antelope horns, and even some tentacles. And she's just shy of six feet tall.

SCP-2709 - Can Anyone Hear You Scream?

SCP-2709 is a phenomenon that affects the animals in a forest in Pennsylvania, causing them to scream until sunrise. The source of the phenomenon is a chemical generated by SCP-2709-1, a massive antlion that lives underneath the forest.
  • Dig Attack: SCP-2709-1 is a huge antlion that digs and lives in underground tunnels. It attacks human beings by collapsing the ground under their feet and eating them.
  • Immune to Bullets: SCP-2709-1 is a gigantic antlion (insect) with inch-thick chitin skin armor, which causes bullets to be ineffective against it.
  • Supernatural Fear Inducer: SCP-2709-1, a gigantic antlion, releases an anomalous chemical that causes terror in all animals (except human beings). Between sundown and sun-up, all animals within 8 kilometers of SCP-2709-1 flee until they are 8 kilometers away from it, and all animals between 8 and 10 kilometers away from it vocalize as loudly as possible and attack all nearby human beings.
  • Tunnel King: SCP-2709-1 is a giant anomalous antlion that digs tunnels underground. It performs a Dig Attack on human beings by collapsing the ground under their feet.

SCP-2718 - What Happens After

SCP-2718 might just be the most horrific anomaly contained by the Foundation, so much so that its number is constantly changing to make the article borderline impossible to access, to the point of knowing of the article's existence is considered a security breach. Even the O5 Council is utterly scared shitless of it. It turns out to be the testimony from a deceased O5 returned to life, who revealed that a person's consciousness actually remains active after they die, only able to feel the eternal agony that comes with the body decaying and/or being destroyed. Those who hear this news are rendered so traumatized that its mere notion is classified as a DAMMERUNG class cognitohazard.
  • Ambiguous Situation: There are at least five ways to interpret this report, with evidence supporting any of them.
    1. Roger's story is completely true, and the afterlife for everyone really is eternal, meaningless torment.
    2. Roger's story is false, but the story itself is a cognitohazard that makes anyone who hears it irrationally fearful of it.
    3. None of it is true, and Roger was trolling the rest of the Council.
    4. Roger's story is only partly true. The eternity of torture he describes is real, but only those who believe in it are subjected to it. Hence why the SCP article is a cognitohazard.
    5. Roger's story is true but the eternal torment he suffered after death only happened to him due to the unique circumstances of his death and resurrection, hence the acknowledged contradiction with afterlife pertaining SCPs and anomalies. The group of interest page for the Dark Web, which is used by Marshall, Carter, and Dark as an ultra-high-security network, gives evidence that it is not a natural afterlife, but one given to those who will be brought back from the dead in the future.
  • Broke the Rating Scale: The Object Class give an error message as it's so horrifying even knowing about the article is considered a breach rendering normal containment procedures impossible.
  • And I Must Scream: SCP-2718 reveals - or at least, the story and experience from the Overseer who claims to have experienced it states - that there is no peace after death. The dead suffer through every inch of their physical body's deterioration, slowly and agonizingly living through an eternal and endless torture as their body rots and decays and disintegrates into nothingness, and even then, the pain won't end.
  • Back from the Dead: Roger Sheldon was genuinely revived, as opposed to being a replica or having their cause of death undone, such that it would allow them to retain memory of what happens after death. It turned out to be Things Man Was Not Meant to Know.
  • Better to Die than Be Killed: Roger is so unwilling to go back to the afterlife that he decides to head into SCP-106's containment chamber instead. It's unknown if he got exactly what he was hoping for...or if he failed.
  • Doing In the Wizard: SCP-6747 offers a fifth interpretation for the anomaly: it's the real-world theory of quantum immortality applying to regular death (meaning a consciousness never truly experiences death due to the many-worlds theory) played straight, with all other SCPs referencing it simply latching onto that principle and anomalously twisting it for their own ends.
  • Easter Egg: There is some hidden text at the bottom of the page: Ρωγερ, έχετε καταβληθεί τιμή, σοι μετατίθημι στον παράδεισο. Which which, when translated from Greek to English is: Roger, you've paid the price, you're in paradise.
  • Fate Worse than Death: Inverted for Roger, who states that anything — being eternally tortured in hell, SCP-106's pocket dimension, etc — would be preferable to what he experienced after his death. And, if Roger is to be believed, subverted, as this is what awaits all who die.
  • Fling a Light into the Future: The only record of SCP-2718's existence is a recording made by O5-7 right before O5-1 had her gunned down. In it, she begs whoever discovers it to find a way to save her and all others who have died from their hellish fates.
    O5-7: I beg you: this — gnosis — must not be erased, forgotten. That is not containment. That is madness. Bring us back. Get us out.
  • Gone Horribly Right: All the Foundation needed to do was revive O5-11 just long enough for him to give the token needed to appoint a successor. Their experimental new method brought him back to life completely, allowing him to spill the horrors of the afterlife. If he only stayed alive as long enough as needed, then there would be no need of a top-secret procedure needed to keep literally any other human being from knowing about the article and the cognitohazard it contains.
  • Kick the Dog: How does O5-1 reward Roger for informing the council about SCP-2718? He intends to kill him again.
  • Mortality Phobia: Roger has it after being resurrected. Once he's finished telling his story, the rest of the O5s have it too. It is implied in the article that the sudden, abrupt, and extreme shift in everyone's attitude is itself evidence that this SCP is actually a cognitohazard that makes people incredibly terrified of death, which is why the amnestics are employed by one of the Overseers who realizes the threat.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Assuming that SCP-2718 is merely a cognitohazard that causes you to believe it or makes it the afterlife of those exposed, then O5-7 unwittingly doomed who know how many to eternal agony for nothing by writing the only remaining vector for it, only realizing the possibility after they've already put it down in an impossible to revise/edit/delete document.
  • O.O.C. Is Serious Business: The O5s, who deal with potentially world-ending calamities on a daily basis, are absolutely terrified of SCP-2718, and for good reason. They're no safer from it than anyone else. It is implied that the out of character actions of the O5s is in fact caused by a cognitohazard making them uncharacteristically terrified of death and that O5-1 actually recognized its nature and tried to contain it with amnestics.
  • Schmuck Bait: Its status as a DAMMERUNG-class cognitohazard isn't exactly subtle, and the guy who set up the warnings at O5-7's request couldn't resist reading it after doing so. He obviously regrets it afterward.
  • These Are Things Man Was Not Meant to Know: The O5 council is desperate to make sure nobody ever finds out what SCP-2718 actually is, not even themselves. That includes taking amnestics and killing anyone with knowledge of it. When O5-7 attempts to run as O5-1 gasses the council with amnestics, she ends up getting gunned down. The rest of the council take her recording of the session, the only possible vector for knowledge of SCP-2718 to escape, and lock it away.
  • What Year Is This?: Part of the containment procedures — or rather, the "reduce the chances someone will come across this article ever again" procedures — involves sending a researcher to try to make the article swapping process take longer, minimizing the amount of time this article is in the database, who is then directed to take a "Behemoth-class" amnestic. If they are able to recall the current year or the current U.S. President (thus implying that the amnestic takes off years of the user's life), the poor researcher is terminated (as it means they didn't take the amnestic, or it was defective).

SCP-2720 - Penguin Honeymoon Suite

SCP-2720 refers to a pocket dimension home to penguins and their prey, accessed several hotel room doors within a specific hotel in Awashima Hotel at Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. Access is manged by GoI-3004 "AquaS Conservancy for Penguins".
  • Alternate Self: In a recorded phone call, representative Mary O'Hara comments that in another world not only she has a connection to the Awashima Hotel, but that she and Agent Daiya Kurosawa went to the same school in that world.
  • Contrived Coincidence: GoI-3004 shares the same name as a front organization the Foundation disbanded back in 2015. It's unknown if this is a mere coincidence or if both organizations are related.
  • Portal Door: Each selected door leads to a widespread sanctuary for a population of a vulnerable penguin species along with its prey.
  • Shout-Out: The entry is a Homage to Love Live! Sunshine!!, with the premise of penguins based on an audio drama where Mari mistakes a penguin for her fellow idol Dia before deciding to take it home with her.

SCP-2721 - Eli and Lyris

See Characters.SCP Foundation SC Ps.

SCP-2733 - Head Cabinet

SCP-2733 is a body cabinet in an abandoned morgue. Whoever opens the cabinet's doors while thinking of a deceased person or pet will conjure the head of whoever was thought of, able to function as if it was still alive.
  • Imagination-Based Superpower: If a person opens any of the cabinet's doors and thinks of a deceased person or pet, then the cabinet will conjure the head of the person or pet that was being thought of. The head is fully capable of functioning much like if it was still alive, and will disappear once the cabinet doors are closed.

SCP-2735 - Ancient Methanogens

SCP-2735 are the last three (formerly four) specimens of a race of sapient aquatic organisms that were once the dominant species on the planet billions of years ago. They are able to communicate through bioluminescence and body language.
  • Cabin Fever: 2735-4 ends up murdering 2735-2 when the latter stops trying to escape containment, and then tries to kill itself.
  • Fling a Light into the Future: SCP-2735 was all but wiped out by an unnamed disaster (implied to be the emergence of oxygen-breathing life) and only four of them survived.
  • Starfish Language: The SCP-2735 instances communicate through bioluminescence and body language. They also quite literally resemble starfish.
  • Last of His Kind: There used to be only four SCP-2735 left, but that number dropped to three when one of them murdered another.
  • Losing the Team Spirit: In their second escape attempt, 2735-1 and 2735-3 give up halfway through. Only 2735-4 tries to break out a third time.
  • Ultra Terrestrials: They were the dominant form of life on Earth a couple billion years ago.

TATTLETALE - [ENTRY REMOVED FROM DATABASE]

SCP-2744 is an extremely hostile entity that wears a burlap sack over its head. The entity is known to hunt down and slaughter any people who know about it. There is more to the entity than meets the eye, however...
  • Abstract Eater: True to its home of the grove of names, TATTLETALE erases the names of anyone it kills.
  • Animal Motifs: Chameleons. TATTLETALE has a chameleon head and is associated with being difficult to properly track down.
  • Death by Irony: If you (Miller) chicken out of sending the report or wait too long, the SIMULACRA fries your brain and kills you instantly due to a programming error. The irony comes in the fact that TATTLETALE is not actually a threat, yet failing to rise up against it kills Miller anyways.
  • Secret Test of Character: TATTLETALE does not exist. It is the fictional antagonist of a full-dive Virtual Reality simulation used by the Foundation to test for altruism. Unfortunately for everyone, a bug in the system means the threat posed by the entity is, ironically, very real.
  • Super-Persistent Predator: TATTLETALE stops at nothing to hunt its target once they learn about it.
  • Virtual Reality: Reaching the end reveals TATTLETALE isn't real and is just part of a convincing Foundation simulation to test for altruism. However, a programming bug means failing the test kills subjects for real anyways.

    2750- 2799 

SCP-2750 - Navajo Skinwalkers

SCP-2750 are a race of humanoids that resemble Navajo Native Americans. They are capable of transforming their appearances into that of animals connected with Navajo culture.
  • Deliberate Values Dissonance: Much like SCP-1851-EX, the article doesn't shy away from the racial violence in the early days of the United States. And much like 1851-EX, the modern Foundation looks back on past events and tries to learn their lesson from them.
  • Eyes Are Mental: Regardless of what form a SCP-2750 shapechanges into, it will always have the eyes of its favorite animal shape.
  • Final Solution: The solution that one of the Foundation predecessor organizations (American Secure Containment Initiative, ASCI) created to contain the threat of the skinwalkers is plain and simple - exterminating every single one of them.
  • Magical Native American: Well, the skinwalkers are indeed deeply related to the Navajo.
  • Partial Transformation: After most of their population was wiped out, the remaining SCP-2750 were forced into inbreeding. As a result, modern day SCP-2750 are sometimes trapped in transition between their animal and human forms.
  • Telepathy: According to the Navajo, an SCP-2750 knows whatever a man is pondering (i.e. reads his thoughts).
  • Voluntary Shapeshifting: All member of the original SCP-2750 could change into at least five different animals found in the southwest U.S., such as crows, wolves, coyotes, eagles and foxes. Some members could change into nine or more types of animals.

SCP-2756 - Surreal Landscaper

SCP-2756 is an infection that causes organs and appendages to grow on random locations of organic creatures.
  • Eyes Do Not Belong There: SCP-2756 is an anomalous infection that causes extra organs (such as eyes) to grow at random locations on living creatures. One SCP-2756 victim has extra eyes growing on their abdomen and forearm.
  • Kill It with Fire: Burning has been found to be the most effective way to destroy victims of infection by SCP-2756. Once each month, at least fifteen members of the Foundation containment site use flamethrowers to burn hostile SCP-2756 victims.
  • Mutants: SCP-2756 is an anomalous disease of unknown origin that mutates living creatures, causing extra organs to grow on random parts of their bodies.

SCP-2757 - Dr. Wondertainment's Projector Fantastico™

SCP-2757 is a movie projector manufactured by Dr. Wondertainment. It is capable of altering the environment around it based on whatever film is placed inside it.
  • Shrink Ray: When the SCP-2757 projector is used with the film SCP-2757-1g Professor Abnormal's 101 Experiments, one of the devices used on the experimental subjects is a Shrink Ray.
  • Super-Intelligence: When the SCP-2757 projector is used with the film SCP-2757-1g Professor Abnormal's 101 Experiments, one of the devices used on the experimental subjects is an intelligence enhancer. The subject retains their high intelligence after the experiment ends.
  • Teleportation: When the SCP-2757 projector is used with the film SCP-2757-1g Professor Abnormal's 101 Experiments, one of the devices used on the experimental subjects is a teleportation device.

SCP-2761 - Bananazilla

SCP-2761 was manufactured by a genetics company known as Aquagene. It was meant to be a genetically engineered pipefish, but it was transformed into a monstrous creature with the characteristics of a banana and an alligator, along with the latter's hostile and predatory behavior.

SCP-2764 - The Eldritch Antarctic

SCP-2764 is a giant, telepathic, squid-like creature trapped beneath the icy wastelands of Antarctica. It is able to use its telepathy to send messages to creatures many kilometers away, but it cannot receive their replies.
  • Alien Geometries: The area in a radius of 50 kilometers around the Eldritch Abomination SCP-2764 is subject to alterations in time and space that cause great difficulties for mortal beings (like humans). SCP-2764 appears to decrease in size as observers approach it, and it sometimes appears to teleport from place to place within the area, indicating that its position is inherently uncertain.
  • Eldritch Abomination: SCP-2764 is a creature that is approximately 382 meters tall and weighs over 150,000 metric tons. It has around 80 large tentacles that it uses for movement and manipulation, and can communicate using telepathy. It generates an area of Alien Geometries around it, causing difficulty with observations of it.
  • Telepathy: SCP-2764 is a gigantic Eldritch Abomination found in the Antarctic. It can use telepathy to send messages to other creatures up to tens of kilometers away, but apparently cannot receive replies. It communicates in the native language of the creature it's speaking to.

SCP-61231 - An Honest Buck

SCP-2769 is an African rainbow crab named "Dolos" who makes any statement focusing on himself appear as (whatever he believes is) the exact opposite of what it means.
  • Anti-Advice: His containment procedures are an example of this. note 
  • Confusing Multiple Negatives: His anomalous effects make his database entry full of these.
    Discovery and Incident Record: Lack of police reports of "a polite unarmed dollar bill not shooting lightning bolts" on a path away from the Hudson River led to demobilization of MTF Pi-1. note 
  • Enslaved Tongue: Subverted, as his anomalous effect can only affect human perception, not actual text, audio, or images.
  • Fire, Ice, Lightning: The crab can shoot lightning bolts and once set his owners' house on fire. Also, if the room's temperature falls below 20°C, he will not hesitate to melt the glass walls of his terrarium, but if the temperature exceeds 30°C, he will create an ice bridge leading out of the terrarium.
  • From Stray to Pet: With disastrous results for the family involved.
  • Meaningful Name: In Greek mythology, Dolos was the spirit of trickery, which this crab is very good at.
  • Painting the Medium: SCP-2769 is a male African rainbow crab whose number appears as "SCP-61231" note , because he makes all statements about him appear to say the exact opposite of what they mean, but he has forgotten the correct value of 2^16 and thinks it is 64000 rather than 65536. (His number previously appeared as "SCP-69-All-The-Time".)
  • Reverse Psychology: In spades throughout his entry, although his effect never alters anything he actually says or any concepts he is unfamiliar with; Word of God states that if a familiar concept is not easily negatable, the crab can choose his own value, hence "dollar bill" or "buck" replacing "crab".
  • Sir Swears-a-Lot:
    Dr. B██████: Do you have a name?
    SCP-61231: Yeah sure, Dolos. A fuckin' dollar bill with a name, that's me. Moron.
    Dr. B██████: Would you describe yourself as Cardisoma armatum?
    SCP-61231: Dafuck you just call me poindexter?
  • Survival Mantra: The robotic attendants guarding him have to repeatedly tell him he's free, lest he dematerialize his terrarium and other barriers.
  • Suspiciously Specific Denial: His anomalous effects tend to cause this in addition to Confusing Multiple Negatives.
    SCP-61231 and Dr. B██████ do not silently maintain eye contact for 10 seconds.
  • You Wake Up on a Beach: A local child found him unresponsive and injured on a Hoboken beach shortly after Hurricane Sandy. The crab was then adopted by the kid's family. Three days later, he regained mobility and his voice (he was described as extremely cantankerous), then escaped after igniting the family's home. Police reports about the crab led the Foundation to capture him with few casualties.

SCP-2774 - The Slow Burn Sloth

SCP-2774 is any visual medium that contains SCP-2774-A, a memetic image of a humanoid entity in a sloth costume. 40-100 hours after their initial viewing, the entity's victims begin to lose cognitive function and their decision-making abilities, except for a 150-second period of lucidity every 24 hours.
  • And I Must Scream: Victims of SCP-2774-A are trapped in a zombie-like state where they are fully aware of what's going on, but have no cognitive function and cannot make decisions. This gets bad enough to the point where one victim in his lucidity period does a Suicide by Cop by attacking a Foundation guard.
  • Brown Note Being: Simply viewing SCP-2774-A has a 40% chance of afflicting the viewer with its effect, as long as they do not have red-green colorblindness.
  • Disability Immunity: The SCP can only affect those who see its image with hues of red and green, meaning that sufferers of red-green colorblindness are immune to its effects.
  • Fate Worse than Death: SCP-2774-A's effects are not lethal, but are far worse than death — victims can experience only 150 seconds of cognitive thought every 24 hours, and are otherwise zombielike. Several victims in their lucid state outright beg for death.
  • It Can Think: SCP-2774-A initially appears to be an image of a simple sloth costume, but as the number of its victims increase, its chance of infecting others increases and it starts to become more proactive in controlling its victims, such as causing them to worship it or making them start fights.
  • Shoot the Dog: Thanks to SCP-2774-A's capability to grow stronger as more victims fall under its control, the Foundation has to perform the grisly duty of Protocol-XXJ 9 — killing off the population of victims in Site-116 to keep their numbers low.
  • Sluggish Sloths: SCP-2774-A is a humanoid entity in a sloth costume that causes its victims to turn slothlike, losing all cognitive functions and decision-making except for a 150-second lucidity period every 24 hours.
  • Suicide by Cop: One of SCP-2774-A's victims is so agonized by the Sloth's control that he attacks a Foundation guard during his lucidity period, prompting a guard to shoot him dead.

SCP-2776 - Mr. President

SCP-2776 is a sentient animatronic that resembles George Washington. If it is set to high-power mode, the animatronic will produce multiple weapons and embark on a violent crusade against anything British. It was also discovered to have replaced the actual George Washington, who died of an illness before the American Revolution.
  • American Robot: As if a combat robot dolled up to look like the Big Good of the American Revolution could be anything else. Exaggerated when his murder-mode is activated.
  • Beethoven Was an Alien Spy: The "human" George Washington died of illness as a young man in General Braddock's army, long before the American Revolutionary War ever took place. This robot was made to replace him and what made history.
  • Berserk Button: Watching a news report about the buy-out of an American telecoms company by a British media company drove him to activate his murder-bot mode.
  • Godzilla Threshold: If the colonists were ever starting to lose against the British, the robot would trigger a combat mode that causes him to sprout a Death Ray from each arm and a flamethrower from his back and rampage towards London, killing everyone that gets in his way. Between this and his immense durability, it's possible he would have destroyed the British empire all on his own given the limitations of weaponry in the 1770's, but this mode was never needed because the revolutionaries won the war anyway.
  • Meaningful Name: The designation SCP-2776 is as close as the author can get to 1776 when the article was posted, since there is already an SCP-1776.
  • One-Man Army: It took two entire MTFs plus air support to bring him down.
  • Schizo Tech: He is a fully functional robot built with mid-18th Century technology, but sports a number of more advanced features such as a small fusion reactor in his chest (which is his power source) and an unknown information processing unit in his skull made of graphene.
  • Steampunk: Named dropped by one of the Foundation personnel who found him in their report.
  • Tomato in the Mirror: It turns out that the "George" wasn't even aware he was a robot until the Foundation informed him. Heck, Martha was just a technician who pretended to be his wife while keeping him operational, never letting poor George know who, or what, he really was. George is more than a bit upset by this discovery.

SCP-2786 - The Archetype

SCP-2786 is a metaphysical entity that can insert itself into horror narratives, where it attempts to portray itself as a brave hero, which often ruins the story. The Foundation has managed to contain it by trapping it in its own article.
  • Ambiguous Gender: Doesn't have a defined gender and it seems to change from instance to instance.
  • And I Must Scream: What its current containment is to it, effectively trapping it in a broken article that it can't escape.
  • Break the Haughty: Despite attempts at resisting it eventually becomes despondent in the article's final re-calibration continually stating that it isn't real and doesn't exist.
  • Cannot Tell Fiction from Reality: Doesn't understand the concept of media such as movies or books, and sees the works it inserts itself in as reality and simply places it visits. It is implied that making it learn the concept of fiction is what finally breaks SCP-2786's will.
  • Despair Event Horizon: The realization of what fiction is, and that it's a fictional being to begin with, completely destroys the SCP's will and opinion of itself. The last iteration of its document, after this realization, is just constant repetition that it doesn't exist, and it's worthless because of it, written only to be tormented by spiteful writers; it doesn't understand what it did wrong to deserve this, and just wants to go home.
  • Narcissist: Loves to proudly boast itself as The Hero and acts condescending to everyone else, seeing them as a means of making itself look good.
  • Self-Insert Fic: What it essentially does to the pieces of fiction it invades, inserting itself as either The Hero or a Deus ex Machina that will solve the plot much faster than normal.

SCP-2791 - Fauste Bank plc

SCP-2791 is a series of demonic pacts benefiting ITCD Bank Ltd. The pacts have been crafted in a way in which the user rarely suffers any serious repercussions of a standard Deal with the Devil.

    2800- 2849 

SCP-2800 - Cactusman

SCP-2800 is Daniel MacIntyre, a man of Scottish descent who has several anomalous genetic abilities themed around cacti. These abilities include an utilizing an empathic connection with cacti, the ability to produce spines from his body, and the ability to survive in environments with high temperatures and very little water. A friendly and cooperative person, Daniel believes himself to be a superhero (even christening himself "Cactusman") who vows to use his "powers" for the greater good. As such, the Foundation keeps him in a positive mental state by allowing him to assist personnel with menial tasks every now and then.
  • Brave Scot: He is of Scottish decent.
  • Cactus Person: He's a man with cactus genes and has the abilities of a cactus, such as growing spines, photosynthesis, efficient water retention, resistance to above-average temperatures and aridity, and empathy with cacti.
  • Chronic Hero Syndrome: He's been psychologically diagnosed with hero syndrome by the Foundation. Part of his containment procedures is to let him help with menial tasks for the sake of his mental health.
  • Companion Cube: His "sidekicks", Cactilad and Spikegirl, are normal cacti.
  • Contrived Coincidence: He first encountered the SCP Foundation while tracking down a serial killer that was also a reality warper the Foundation was tracking.
  • The Determinator: Despite being beaten up repeatedly by criminals, he was determined to keep up his work as a hero.
  • Failure Hero: Due to his lackluster powers and training, Daniel isn't very successful as a hero. His failures have given him depression and he has attempted Self-Harm before.
  • Meaningful Rename: His real name is Daniel MacIntyre, but he only refers to himself by his hero alias.
  • Nice Guy: He's friendly and cooperative with the Foundation, and went into superhero work just to help people in need.
  • Plant Person: He has "cactus powers". It's as lame as it sounds.
  • Spike Shooter: He can protrude 2-3cm long spikes from his body; while he can detach them at will, he can't actually use them as projectiles.
  • Super Zeroes: He's not very good at being a superhero. Before he was contained by the Foundation, he went out trying to fight crime, but just ended up being beaten up by the criminals.
  • Talking to Plants: One of his powers is talking to cacti. It's (slightly) less useless than it sounds given the existence of cactaceous SCPs and the fact that communicating with cacti improves their metabolism.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: There was one time where he actually managed to save a woman and her child from a mugger without getting hurt at all.

SCP-2812 - Echoes of Yesterday

SCP-2812-1 is a record player displayed in the Limestone Business Center in Indiana that plays a version of the Jerome Kerns song "Yesterday". Anyone who hears the song will develop a psychological compulsion to leave the town and never return. SCP-2812-2 are humanoids that manifest in the record player's radius of effect. Their mouths are replaced by speakers that also broadcast the song. The version of the song the humanoids play has a stronger effect than the record player, capable of inducing cerebral hemorrhaging.
  • Make Me Wanna Shout: SCP-2812-2 are humanoid entities that operate in the area of effect around the SCP-2812-1 record player. They have a speaker cone inside their mouths that broadcasts the same music played by SCP-2812-1, but it has a stronger effect, causing cerebral hemorrhaging in living creatures.
  • Teleportation: The SCP-2812-2 humanoid entities that patrol the area around SCP-2812-1 can teleport from place to place inside the area at will.

SCP-2814 - Heretic of the Torch

SCP-2814 is a mask made from zitan wood and jadeite. Whoever wears the mask is rendered immune to fire, and is given the ability to manipulate fire into a solid form.
  • Human Sacrifice: If the person wearing the SCP-2814 mask performs enough human sacrifices, the souls of the person and all of the people they've killed will turn into a storm of fire in the shape of a column.
  • Mystical 108: The Chinese occultist group "Children of the Torch" performed 108 Human Sacrifices in an attempt to create a firestorm, the form of their deity the Radiant Father.
  • Playing with Fire: When a human being wears the SCP-2814 mask they can (a) manipulate fire as if it were a liquid or solid, (b) modify the temperature of fire under their control, (c) touch or "hold" their fire without being harmed, and (d) take no damage from heat or flame up to 5000 °C.

SCP-2835 - Constructive Criticism

SCP-2835 is a video tape of an unreleased episode of The Adventures of Paddy the Pelican. When the tape is played, Paddy will frequently stop the show to ask if the viewers like the cartoon. If he is presented with even the slightest offering of negativity or constructive criticism regarding the show, Paddy will launch into a maniacal tirade, where he will berate his viewers and tell them repeatedly to "reap what you sow". The Foundation suspended testing with the tape indefinitely after Paddy revealed that he knew where a D Class's family lived and threatened their lives.
  • Berserk Button: Paddy gets furiously angry if the audience doesn't like his cartoon.
  • Can't Take Criticism: Paddy absolutely refuses to hear any critique of his episodes that is even slightly negative, even if it would help him improve his show.
  • Despair Event Horizon: Implied to have crossed it to suicidal levels a while ago. When an episode of Paddy's show was run through SCP-3922 (a video player that allows the high-tech organization known as the Three Moons Initiative to access fictional visual media), the Three Moons soldiers only tried to console a despondent Paddy. Paddy tried blowing off his own head with a gun, only to get the classic cartoon dizzy symbols around his head. Paddy cried that he doesn't have the ability to "people die, not just cartoon die".
  • The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You: The SCP takes the form of an episode of Sam Singer's Paddy the Pelican, but Paddy will frequently stop the cartoon and talk to the audience, getting angry if they express any form of criticism.
  • Madness Mantra: Paddy's temper tantrums involve heavy use of the phrase "Reap what you sow!"
  • Shout-Out: This SCP features a fictional lost episode of The Adventures of Paddy the Pelican, and in general seems to be a nod to "lost episode" Creepypastas.
  • Sir Swears-a-Lot: Paddy tends to curse viciously if the audience sets him off.
  • The Villain Knows Where You Live: Testing on SCP-2835 was suspended after Paddy demonstrated that he knew where the test subject's family lives and threatened their lives.
    We can't take any more chances. Even if he's bluffing, it's specific bluffing, and the implications are, at best, troubling. - Dr. Naismith

SCP-2858 - As Though The Wasps Themselves Had Worked It There

SCP-2858 are anomalous skin care products sold as "Wasp Cleaners", supposedly for the purpose of getting rid of wasps infesting your body.

SCP-2863 - がしゃどくろ

SCP-2863 are massive skeletons found in Japan. They are shown to be intangible, prone to biting off the heads of their victims, and manifesting whenever Japan undergoes a time of mass suffering, such as a natural disaster.
  • Dem Bones: Massive, 100-feet tall skeletons that appear during times of mass suffering and death, such as the Second Sino-Japanese War, the Allied firebombings of Japan and the 2011 Japanese earthquake.
  • Immune to Bullets: SCP-2863 are giant skeletons that bite off people's heads and drink their blood. Conventional weaponry (such as firearms) has no effect on them.
  • Turn Undead: Shinto religious rituals can banish SCP-2863 instances but not destroy them.
  • Weakened by the Light: If SCP-2863 instances are exposed to any light at all, they lose their corporeal form and are banished until darkness falls again.
  • Youkai: SCP-2863 is based on the gashadokuro, a giant skeleton monster from Japanese mythology.

SCP-2864 - Di Molte Voci

"Di Molte Voci" is a glass harlequin mask discovered by a vacationing Foundation doctor in Sicily, Italy. Any quantifiable information about the mask is randomized, and any attempt to describe it is replaced with quotes from individuals that have discussed it. Because of this, the Foundation calls it "Di Molte Voci" rather than giving it an SCP number. —Anonymous troper
  • Bilingual Bonus: "Di Molte Voci" is Italian for "Of Many Voices". —Anonymous troper
  • Capitalism Is Bad: The mask has a notable opposition to money; it highlights words related to money in red, and the previous owner of the mask refused to take cash payment for it, yet was apparently very poor. The author of the article has stated that this is due to money having a consensus value. —Anonymous troper
  • Individuality Is Illegal: Inverted; the mask's effects appear to be based on opposition to any form of consensus and authority. Therefore, concretely agreeable designations are removed, and it can only be described by an individual's discussion of it. —Anonymous troper
  • Painting the Medium: The object replaces the description with quotes from discussions that went into it. It also randomizes some data assigned to it. The Foundation calls it Di Molte Voci (Italian for "out of many voices") instead of a numeral designation, and its article consists of notes from the discovery and documentation of the mask. —Anonymous troper

SCP-2869 - Fuckworms

SCP-2869 are worm-like humanoids that contain parasitic sperm. If this sperm manages to enter another person's body, they will turn the infected person into another instance of 2869.
  • Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: SCP-2869 reproduces by secreting SCP-2869-S, a mucus containing parasitic sperm. If SCP-2869-S touches another living creature, it will enter that creature's body and grow into new versions of SCP-2869 that are a combination of the forms of SCP-2869 and the host body.
  • Our Centaurs Are Different: SCP-2869 are approximately 3.5 meters long. Their lower half is a long muscular tail like that of a caterpillar, with four claw-like legs and two long gripping limbs in front. The upper half is a humanoid torso (with arms and head) at one end of the tail.
  • Super Spit: One of SCP-2869's offspring (created by infecting a purple shore crab) is capable of spitting a stream of infectious SCP-2869-S up to 10 meters away.

SCP-2872 - A Fast Horse

SCP-2872 is a horse that increases its acceleration every year it doesn't win the Kentucky Derby. The horse is capable of galloping faster than the speed of light, even managing to escape Foundation containment and propel itself into space.
  • Faster-Than-Light Travel: After it broke out of SCP Foundation containment it traveled into space and accelerated to faster than the speed of light. It started by heading for the constellation Equuleus, but has since begun to turn.
  • The Juggernaut: While running, SCP-2872 can break through any barrier and is unharmed by any impact.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The Foundation had SCP-2872 contained perfectly well by giving it adequate living space and letting it win the Kentucky Derby once every five years, but then some idiot went and locked it up in a cell claiming that the Foundation was just "appeasing" SCP-2872, and now they have an imminent equine XK-Class scenario on their hands. Moral of the story: if containment procedures are keeping a potentially dangerous anomaly relatively harmless, do not change them for no good reason.
  • Super-Speed: If it didn't win the Kentucky Derby at least once every five years, it would accelerate to a speed of 320 meters per second and race around the countryside. However, after the Foundation locked it up and didn't let it move around, it burst out of containment and went into outer space using Faster-Than-Light Travel.

SCP-2875 - The Town That Got Fucked By Bears

SCP-2875 was a Wisconsin town that was subject to an anomalous event that occured every three days. The event results in the manifestation of hundreds of bears that multiply whenever they are killed, who proceeded to slaughter the townsfolk.
  • Asteroids Monster: If a bear is killed by shooting or an incendiary device, two more will appear next to its corpse.
  • Bears Are Bad News: The SCP is a phenomenon occurring in ███████, Wisconsin that causes 50 to 100 bears to appear in the town every three days.
  • Out of the Frying Pan: From the voice messages left by the mayor, they brought in some sort of anomalous exterminator to deal with a coyote problem using bears. It worked like a charm... but now the town has a bear problem. An anomalous bear problem.
  • Serious Business: Best exemplified in this statement:
    MTF Lead Note: I know plenty of you think that this is some kind of joke, but a town of constantly appearing bears is serious. Can you imagine what would happen to the local ecosystem if we let this thing go? It was like a goddamn bear arena when we first rolled in, and that was only after a few days.
  • Too Dumb to Live: The mayor of the town, Tom Miller, was killed by a bear while leaving his phone number for the exterminator as the bear was attacking.

    2900- 2949 

SCP-2901 - Mothman

SCP-2901 is the Mothman, the winged cryptid of West Virginia folklore. It's actually only one member of a species of otherworldly creatures that mimic people's belief about themselves, and can restructure reality around them.
  • Animalistic Abomination: More in behavior than appearance though—it's an otherworldly monster that acts like a precognitive buzzard.
  • Disaster Scavengers: A literal example, scavenging on the remains left behind in disasters.
  • Doing In the Wizard: Weird example because it still has supernatural abilities, but it's depicted as a territorial scavenger that waits out disasters so that it can eat the remains of human fatalities. At least, that's what the Foundation wants people to think.
  • Eldritch Abomination: The report at the end implies that it's one of these—its true appearance is dependent on what the public views it as, something even the Foundation wasn't completely aware of at first. Because this could potentially lead to disaster if the creature is perceived as anything particularly dangerous, the Foundation is hard at work trying to make its public image something more docile.
  • Flight: SCP-2901 can freely move through the space-time continuum, giving them the abilities of flight and teleportation.
  • Giant Flyer: Just like the myth that inspired them. Except they weren't always like this.
  • The Mothman: As its name suggests, it's a take on the classic cryptid.
  • Non-Malicious Monster: It's a carnivorous scavenger that feeds on corpses left behind after disasters. Or is it?
  • Our Cryptids Are More Mysterious: It's the Mothman!
  • Reality Warper: They have extradimensional abilities that makes containing them nigh-impossible.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: SCP-2901's standard manifestation is a humanoid with dark-colored wings and large red eyes. They are known to attack human beings, especially when the humans flee them, and their touch causes the victim's skin to be ripped off. They also appear near the sites of disasters and eat the bodies of the victims.
  • Seers: They can predict impending disasters with incredible ease. It's believed that they do this to scavenge the remains left behind, but it turns out they only became that way because the Foundation started to believe that was the case.
  • Teleportation: SCP-2901 can freely move through the space-time continuum, giving them the abilities of flight and teleportation.

SCP-2904 - Temporary Immortals

SCP-2904 is a device capable of granting a limited form of immortality to those who activate it; the immortals are designated SCP-2904-1. The Foundation uses them as special agents for MTF Pi-20, "Oathkeepers".
  • The Ageless: SCP-2904-1 do not age.
  • Disability Immunity: SCP-2904-1 are resistant to mental manipulation, because their mind resets itself every few minutes.
  • Fish out of Temporal Water: Because they can't form new memories, as time goes by SCP-2904-1 find the world surrounding them increasingly strange and unfamiliar.
  • Healing Factor: SCP-2904-1's bodies gradually reset themselves, healing any injury they suffer.
  • The Needless: SCP-2904-1 need no food or drink.
  • Survival Mantra: Before their conversion into SCP-2904-1, MTF Pi-20 agents are each taught a phrase they repeat when on a mission to center themselves, such as "I am calm. I check for threats."
  • Who Wants to Live Forever?: SCP-2904-1 are immortal, but at the cost of permanent anterograde amnesia.
Operator ███████████████: "You’ve got to understand that what they’re offering you isn’t life, but it isn’t death either. Choose wisely."

SCP-2922 - Notes From the Under

SCP-2922 is a memetic phenomenon that allows people to make phone calls telepathically.
  • Accidental Discovery: An SCP that allows people to make telepathic phone calls unexpectedly reveals an entire afterlife to the Foundation.
  • Afterlife Antechamber: Corbenic is said to be a hub leading to every possible afterlife, though it's entirely possible to never move on, and spend the rest of eternity in Corbenic itself.
  • Alien Sky: Corbenic has three moons
  • Dead Person Conversation: SCP-2922 is a memetic procedure that lets people make phone calls with their minds. The unanticipated side effect is that these people can still make phone calls after their own death, allowing them to speak to the living.
  • External Retcon: In an older version of the article, one of Janet Spiegel's messages had an oblique reference to the horrific afterlife from SCP-2718, implying that it was a punishment for failing some sort of test in Corbenic—rather than an inevitability, as the 2718 article had implied. That bit eventually got removed.
  • Giant Spider: SCP-PC-005, "The Impenetrable", is a Reality Warper that lives in the afterlife known as Corbenic. It resembles a gigantic spider.
  • Healing Factor: In the afterlife that the Foundation calls Corbenic, humans have physical bodies but are incapable of dying. People recover from all physical injuries in minutes or hours.
  • I Lied: Janet Spiegel tells the Foundation at one point that The Grim Reaper appeared in Corbenic, driving a cart to take everyone to the Elysian Fields. In her next phone message, she admits that was a lie, just meant to test the Foundation's reaction.
  • Reality Warper: SCP-PC-005 "The Impenetrable" is an extremely powerful reality-bending Giant Spider entity that lives in the afterlife known to the Foundation as Corbenic. It is allied to the Foundation scientist who ended up there after dying while under the influence of SCP-2922.
  • Shoot the Dog: Refusing to let the dead researcher talk to her husband is standard Foundation procedure. When she manages to contact him anyway, he is shot. But the kicker is telling the "explorers" that they can be returned to their bodies, when that is impossible; travelling to Corbenic requires you to die.
  • Taken for Granite:
    • The 2-3 kilometer high primates known as Striders can generate a sound that petrifies human flesh.
    • Anyone speaking negatively about SCP-PC-007 "The Witch-Queen of Bogal Mountain" while in the Corbenic afterlife will have their flesh turn to stone.
  • Telepathy: SCP-2922 is a memetic procedure that can be implanted in a human being's mind. It allows them to telepathically call a specific phone number.
  • Teleportation: The kilometer-high primates called Striders can make a noise that teleports other creatures to an unknown area.
  • To Serve Man: SCP-PC-007, "The Witch-Queen of Bogal Mountain", has Giant Striders collect human beings and bring them to her so she can eat them. Since everyone has regeneration abilities this is not fatal, but spending months going through her digestive tract does serious psychological damage.

SCP-2927 - Soundspots

SCP-2927 are two tones generated at 75 decibels and frequencies up to 27 Hz. Anyone listens to the sounds suffers from perpetual unease, which gets stronger or weaker depending on how close the person is to the sounds.
  • Brown Note: SCP-2927 is two tones generated at 75 dB at frequencies of 16.8 kHz and 27 Hz. Anyone who listens to them suffers from dread and unease, which get stronger the closer the person gets to the source of the sound. Anyone who approaches within two meters will permanently experience night terrors, insomnia and a strong fear of prolonged noises.
  • Supernatural Fear Inducer: Anyone who listens to the SCP-2927 sounds suffers from dread and unease, which becomes stronger the closer the person gets to the source of the sound. Anyone who approaches within two meters will permanently experience night terrors, insomnia and a strong fear of prolonged noises.

SCP-2928 - The 21st Discipline

SCP-2928 are a race of human-like entities that are tied to the presence of Ninja in history and pop culture.
  • Ambiguously Human: Instances of SCP-2928 are genetically indistinguishable to non-anomalous humans, though they are capable of performing stealth and ninjitsu that falls under the SCP's definition of magic.
  • Hallucinations: Their biggest anomalous effect is that they can cause hallucinations in others that make them undetectable. One instance claims that this is the "unofficial" 21st Discipline of Ninjitu.
  • Missing Reflection: Their stealth skills are anomalous in nature as they can't be caught on recording devices, including photographs and video.
  • Tulpa:
    • Clues infer that SCP-2928 are directly tied to cultural ideas of Ninja and their frequency of appearance depends on how popular they are. The only reason why they are so stealthy is because people believe them to be that way. Sightings of them became more common in The '80s during the Third Ninja Boom, and it's implied that a lot of modern Ninja Fiction was bankrolled by the SCP Foundation (Operation KUDZU) as a method of nerfing future instances.
    • According to one instance, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles exist, though a lot of cocaine was involved.

SCCP-2930 - Cross City City City City Hall

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

SCP-2933 - Mr. Scary

See Characters.SCP Foundation Misters.

SCP-2935 - O, Death

SCP-2935 is a cave that leads to an alternate universe where everything on the planet is dead. No decomposition occurs because even the bacteria that break down matter have died. The Foundation discovers that whoever ventures into the cave will cause their original universe to undergo a similar event should they return.
  • Ambiguous Situation: How it kills is unknown, but some things can be inferred. The world you visit when walking through is presumably the last reality it wiped out. It kills everything living either on Earth or throughout the universe. Any SCPs that can be considered alive also dies and loses its anomalous properties to boot. Upon returning to your reality, everything but you dies just before you make it all the way through. You come back to a completely sterilized planet. What prevents, say bacteria, floating through and coming back to wipe out the planet is unknown. It appears something has to intentionally make the journey. The alternate Agent Keller just describes the trigger that walks through and comes back as "Death". He explains that, perhaps, something is in the cave that "follows you out". Drones returning through the cave don't trigger the mass death.
  • Apocalypse How: It leads to a duplicate Earth where Class 6 is in full effect - absolutely EVERYTHING is dead on the other side of the portal.
  • Awful Truth: The apocalypse was caused by a Foundation member—the alternate version of a member of the MTF, no less—going through the portal from the other end. That member also found a dead world that didn't quite match his own, but when he returned he found his own world completely dead as well. He locked himself in containment and killed himself, and his was the only corpse to decompose.
  • Driven to Suicide: Alternate Keller did this when he came back to discover the Awful Truth above. It's implied that Keller from our side realized this (or saw his alternate's last transmission) and "accidentally" tripped the nuke to keep anyone from bringing the apocalypse down on the world they left as well.
  • Everybody's Dead, Dave: As mentioned before, absolutely everything is dead on 2935's duplicate Earth. And that does mean absolutely everything - one log notes that corpses are eerily undamaged because there's no bacteria that can cause decay/rotting. Trying to go back won't help you, because that's what caused everybody to be dead in the first place.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: After learning from the alternate Agent Keller that returning home would continue the cycle of 2935, MTF Epsilon-13 stays behind and collapses the cave on their end, ordering the Foundation to seal it off completely.
  • Tomato in the Mirror: The only corpse to have decomposed is that of Agent Keller's counterpart. This is because he went through the portal from their side and returned.
    Maybe I… am Death.

SCP-2941 - Do Not Eat or Inspire

SCP-2941 is a collection of sentient fruits and vegetables that grow to massive sizes whenever they become happy. To keep them small, Foundation researchers are forced to keep them miserable by doing things to them that they do not like.
  • Ambiguously Related: Research is ongoing as to whether SCP-504 (the tomatoes that hurl themselves at people who tell bad jokes) are a specialized form of SCP-2941.
  • Cruelty Is the Only Option: Because they grow big enough to crush people when they're happy, their containment procedures focus on making them miserable so they remain small and easy to contain.
  • Hates Being Touched: SCP-2941-9 is a peach that hates being touched. Its containment procedures involve it being repeatedly and regularly finger-flicked by researchers.
  • I Just Want to Be Loved: SCP-2941-11 is an eggplant that only says, "Hoo boo, I love you." Researchers are to say to it, "You should be hurled into the trash."
  • Malicious Misnaming: SCP-2941-7 is a turnip that wants to be called Terry. Researchers are to call it Ferguson, Wingding, and Budz instead.
  • The Pollyanna: They have an innate, highly positive self-image that keeps them happy, so they start growing every 3-5 hours.
  • Spanner in the Works: A random D-class accidentally causes a containment breach by making a lewd comment about "nice melons" towards a female researcher. SCP-2941-3, a melon that likes being complimented for its roundness, thinks the comment was directed to it and immediately grows to immense size.

    2950- 2999 

SCP-2950 - Just A Chair

SCP-2950 is an eldritch entity that transforms into whatever people around it believe it to be. It has currently taken the form of a metal folding chair that people are compelled to sit in. If they submit, these people must be physically removed to get off the chair, struggling all the way.
  • Ambiguous Situation: It works like SCP-2901 in that it transforms into what the majority of people believe it is. In fact, from the description, it could actually be another instance of SCP-2901.
  • Clap Your Hands If You Believe: SCP-2950 takes the form of whatever most people believe it to be. Hence why they've convinced everyone up to most of the O5's that it's just a chair.
  • Cool Chair: It's a metal folding chair that's far more comfortable than it seems. The longer someone sits in it, the less they want to move out of it. Otherwise, it's nothing dangerous. As long as you believe it is.
  • Move Along, Nothing to See Here: It's just a chair that's anomalously comfortable, with no real applications aside from being sat upon nor research value, and it's most certainly not to be experimented on because there's nothing worth testing for. And it definitely isn't a Keter-class metamorphic entity that's defined by what people think it is, and most certainly isn't contained by making it as boring and mundane as an anomaly can be.
  • Secret-Keeper: Only one O5-6 and one member of the Serpent's Hand can know what is at any one time. The thing could safely be ignored and all memories wiped of it to make it harmless, but some unknown Jerkass or Big Bad wrote a book about it to cause it to become an incredibly dangerous monster. The books' origins are unknown but recent. Therefore, the O5-6 who knows of it must try to find out the books' origins, whether it be man-made or caused by the SCP or another SCP. The writer of the message (who has been mind wiped after having written the message) notes that the task will be almost impossible and that he or she will have no help from anyone in regards to the matter.

SCP-2951 - 10,000 Years

SCP-2951 is an abandoned mine that houses anomalous entities and distortions of space and time.
  • Abandoned Mine: SCP-2951 is a mine that was abandoned due to its anomalous nature causing quite a few people to disappear.
  • Action Bomb: The last of the Voice Changelings in the exploration log violently combusts, destroying the MTF's recording equipment, but leaving the members themselves mostly unharmed.
  • Dwindling Party: Inverted. Mobile Task Force Trotter-5 is a four-man team. Pay attention to the unit designations in the exploration log.
  • Eldritch Location: A mineshaft that spatially warps, trapping those that try to explore it, has a temporal effect that makes time feel like it drags on forever, and warps individuals into monstrous entities with nothing remaining of their former selves aside from their clothing and voice mimicry.
  • Madness Mantra: "Too long in the fire."
  • Voice Changeling: The entities in the mine have the appearance of people who have entered the mine, but with the wrong voices. That said, the voices themselves are flawless enough to fool the exploration team.
  • Year Inside, Hour Outside: What to the team was a five hour mission was to the surface only about twenty minutes.

SCP-2952 - Conveyance Of Regional Gwerin Internationally

SCP-2952 is a Corgi with an extremely long body that stretches from Oregon to Japan. It is regularly used as a transit system by a race of extremely tiny people called the Council of the Tylwyth Teg.
  • Big Friendly Dog: Despite being over 30,000 meters long, the Corgi is still just as friendly as any normal dog of its breed. The Foundation staff tending to it are even encouraged to play with it, though its ability to move is limited.
  • The Fair Folk: SCP-2952-2, the commuters, are clearly Welsh fairies of one sort or another.
  • Fun with Acronyms: Conveyance Of Regional Gwerin Internationally, or C.O.R.G.I.
  • Healing Factor: Immediately, fully recovers from any injury inflicted on it. It's not immune to all medical issues, though - the Foundation had to close one of its stops in order to remove some kidney stones.
  • Invisible to Normals: Invoked, in a way. Once the Foundation proved their worth, the Corgi in question immediately became imperceptible to the naked eye by anyone not a member of the Foundation, which helped containment immensely.
  • Organic Technology: It's essentially an insanely long Welsh Corgi that doubles as a gigantic subway line.
  • The Dog Bites Back: SCP-2952-2 immediately started attacking the researchers involved in blocking the system's exits, even snatching away the site director and practically crucifying the researcher in charge. Thankfully, the Foundation got the hint and all problems ceased once they started to cooperate.
  • Subways Suck: Downplayed, but it appears even magical fairy metros have racist graffiti and really bad musicians.

SCP-2954 - Looping Kaiju Killing

SCP-2954 are six pieces of weaponry that resemble satellite dishes. They are stationed in a rural town in Japan, and are known to fire energy bolts at SCP-2954-2, a race of anomalous kaiju that manifest and attack the town every seven days.
  • Kaiju: Every seven days, an example of SCP-2954-2 appears and attacks. SCP-2954-2 are bipedal and 50-60 meters tall. They have a mixture of traits from fish, amphibians and reptiles, including spiny fins on their back and forearms.
  • Lightning Gun: SCP-2954-1 look like radio telescopes on pedestals. They can fire an electrical arc similar to a lightning bolt.
  • Super Spit: SCP-2954-2 are Kaiju (think Godzilla) that can spit out corrosive fluid.
  • Shout-Out: Tsuburaya Events is obviously named after Eiji Tsuburaya.

SCP-2966 - InfiniTP

SCP-2966 is a roll of toilet paper that can generate an endless supply of sheets. It must be hooked up to a nuclear reactor in order to replenish itself, and pieces of it must be removed within a set number of days. If these regulations are ignored, the roll will convert its entire mass into energy and explode.
  • Energy Absorption: SCP-2966 has to be hooked up to heat exchanger of a nuclear reactor to replenish itself; without a heat source, it sucks out all the ambient heat energy in a region measuring in kilometers and brings the temperature down to absolute zero. It also has to be regularly subtracted from, otherwise it will disintegrate into energy after disuse.
  • Equivalent Exchange: Unlike most of the anomalous items contained by the Foundation, SCP-2966 actually obeys the laws of thermodynamics, hence the need to feed it with heat energy.
  • Lethal Harmless Powers: Its main purpose is to be an endless supply of toilet paper. Its Keter classification comes from how it creates this endless supply.
  • Misplaced a Decimal Point: The reason it's so dangerous is because, when it was being created, its creator placed the square in "e equals MC squared" in the wrong spot.
  • Paranormal Mundane Item: SCP-2966 is a literal infinite roll of toilet paper.
  • The Tokyo Fireball: It will instantly convert its entire mass to energy if pieces of it are not removed for more than a set number of days, detonating in an explosion comparable to a hydrogen bomb.

SCP-2970 - Holy Misplacement

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

SCP-2975 - Another Sun

SCP-2975 is the Memory House, a Victorian mansion operated by a cult known as the Order of the White Sun. The White Sun itself is an eldritch being that dwells in the center of the earth, and the cult often use the Memory House to conduct rituals to summon it, longing for it to bring about the end of the world.
  • Apocalypse Cult: The Order of the White Sun is a cult that worships an Eldritch Abomination called the White Sun. They try to use a structure called the Memory House to bring the White Sun to Earth and cause an XK-Class End of the World Scenario.
  • Eldritch Abomination: The White Sun is an extremely powerful and incomprehensible being that is worshiped by the Apocalypse Cult The Order of the White Sun. The Order is trying to bring about the end of the world by summoning the White Sun to Earth.
  • Immune to Bullets: Another Sun is a Tale associated with SCP-2975. After Mobile Task Force Sigma-3 enters a crevasse and is transported to another world, they see gigantic wolf-like beings as tall as a skyscraper. When they fire on one such being, it has no effect at all.
  • Torches and Pitchforks: Another Sun is a Tale associated with SCP-2975. As Mobile Task Force Sigma-3 moves through a town, it is attacked by cultists literally armed with torches and pitchforks. MTF Sigma-3 manages to avoid the cultists, who eventually fell asleep.

SCP-2976 - Hall of the Last King

SCP-2976 is a book titled In the Hall of the Last King. Reading the book will cause the reader to believe that the Hall of the Last King is a real place. If 6 or more effected people get together, they will begin attempting to build the hall in real life. Once the hall is completed, they will fuse together into the actual Last King.
  • Alien Geometries: When people infected with the SCP-2976 meme advance to Stage 4 they start to create the Hall of the Last King. The structure has non-Euclidean dimensions and architecture, with time and space being warped inside it.
  • Eldritch Abomination: When the victims of SCP-2976 reach Stage 5 they summon the Last King inside the Hall. The Last King appears as a humanoid figure silhouetted by a bright light. When he arrives everything in the nearby area (both organic and inorganic) is destroyed or removed, except for the walls.

SCP-2978 - Motherburg

SCP-2978-A is a collection of Intel motherboards. The silicon chips of these motherboards are inhabited by SCP-2978-B, a race of small humanoids that display vast knowledge in the fields of computer modification.
  • Air-Vent Passageway: The SCP-2978-B entities being held in Site 17 change a wireless modem into a flying vehicle and start to explore. Three minutes later the vehicle enters a ventilation duct and visual contact with the vehicle is lost.
  • Humans Are Cthulhu: They are so small that they can no more perceive us than we can them without a microscope. They also worship their unknown human creator, which they often mistake Foundation scientists for. Also, mere headlice is to them the equivalent of a rampaging monster.
  • Lilliputians: Even smaller than usual- requiring a microscope and a high speed camera to properly perceive.
  • Silicon-Based Life: SCP-2978-B are a race of tiny silicon-based humanoids. They live in the silicon chips of computer motherboards and are expert at using and modifying computers.

SCP-2979 - Your Secondary School Physics Teacher, Mr. [REDACTED]

SCP-2979 is Mr. [REDACTED], an infohazardous name in an alien language. This name causes people who hear it or read to believe that Mr. [REDACTED] was their high school science teacher, primarily by giving them Fake Memories. Mr. [REDACTED] actually seems to a sapient being that exists only inside peoples' memories, and he is very unhappy with his situation because he ends up driving the people he has infected insane.
  • Bad Powers, Good People: Why he's Safe; he's gained control over the infohazard that is his name to control the Fake Memories produced by it, which he uses to warn the Foundation whenever it affects someone.
  • Brown Note: His name is a word in an alien language that immediately causes people to recognize him as, well, their high school science teacher and manufactures Fake Memories of him that eventually turn them into Cloud Cuckoo Landers if the Foundation doesn't erase his name in a month.
  • Cool Teacher: The memories portray him as such, but nobody's sure if he ever actually was one, or whether it's just because the sole remaining instance of his infected name is from a high school.
  • Multiple-Choice Past: The memories including him are often contradictory. He might have been a war hero, his class might have seen him as the coolest thing ever, or they might have insulted him so much he had no time to teach.
  • Mundane Utility: According to the author, SCP-2979 was never human. The implication seems to be that SCP-2979 was deliberately created by the school it was found at as a way to save money paying for a science teacher by giving students false memories of a science teacher instead.
  • Only Sane Man: Humorously, Mr. [REDACTED] is immune to the Brown Note and from his personal edits to the memories it makes he gets quite exasperated with the behavior of those who aren't.
  • Reluctant Monster: He really doesn't like being an infohazard.
  • Retired Badass: He may or may not be a Navy veteran, and he's certainly badass enough to neuter his own infohazard.
  • Was Once a Man: Mr. [REDACTED] himself apparently exists as a disembodied mind within the Fake Memories made by his name. He himself isn't sure if he exists or not. However, the author has confirmed on The Leak thread that he actually is not and never was a real person, but he is sapient.

SCP-2987 - Invictus

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the mutliple canons folder.

SCP-2988 - Folly of the Fruit Eater

See Recap.SCP Foundation Canons under the Pitch Haven folder.

SCP- 2989 - Of Bookworms, Bamboo, and Beating Hearts.

SCP-2989 were a pair of caterpillars in love with oneanother who could communicate through poetry. They had been teleporting throughout time and space in search of their mate, and once they reunited, they merged into a chrysalis that proceeded to hatched into an unknown species of butterfly. The butterfly proceeded to write the word "Whole" and disappeared.
  • Interspecies Romance: They are a Japanese Emperor caterpillar and an Orange Spicebush Swallowtail caterpillar, respectively. (One wonders how they met in the first place.) The individual that results from their union has no recognizable breed.
  • Nearly Normal Animal: They're just caterpillars. Caterpillars that communicate through grammatically correct poetry and can teleport through time and space, but still caterpillars with no interest in anything outside their species.
  • Romantic Fusion: After finally reuniting, 2989-A and 2989-B form into a chrysalis, from which emerges one butterfly. It writes "Whole", before disappearing for good.
  • Star-Crossed Lovers: Every jump they make is an attempt to find the other, but somehow their coordinates are always off. Until they're not.
    Why are so many feelings needed, when one overwhelms the universe?

SCP-2996 - ERROR / ERROR

SCP-2996 was the ghost of Emily Nash, an eight-year old girl murdered in 1929. Her killer was a reality-warper named James Franklin, who managed to kill her ghost, then hacked into her article and changed it in an attempt to cover his tracks.
  • Ambiguous Situation: SCP-2996 had undergone a few edits that changed the ending, but the latest edit merged the original and the new ending together into a special situation - the file was edited in-universe after a breach of security. Either of the earlier versions of the article could be "the true version". The problem is, not even the Foundation knows which one it is. And both might be fake.
  • Downer Ending: The first version of the article was much darker. After all those counseling sessions to get Emily to let go of James, turns out that James did indeed kill Emily, and somehow infiltrated the Foundation, impersonated a doctor, and performed a Physical Evaluation on ghost Emily (whose details we don't get to see, but at least include vivisection), before escaping and getting listed on a Foundation manhunt.
  • Earn Your Happy Ending: The second version of the article was much lighter: After months of psychiatric counseling, ghost Emily accepts that her death was a suicide, not a murder. She lets go of her hatred towards James and starts over, becoming a normal girl again and was adopted by the Foundation under the name "Samantha Pendleton".
  • Our Ghosts Are Different: Vengeful spirits are incorporeal, but can be restricted to corporeal forms via existing technology.
  • Unfinished Business: Emily as a ghost wanted to hunt down James Franklin, the thirteen-year-old boy that killed her when she was eight.

SCP-2998 - Anomalous Transmission, 2485 MHz

SCP-2998 was a television signal spread throughout the universe that displayed an alien named Ruhar being mercilessly tortured. Ruhar was actually a sentient idea, and thus was able to escape his prison by infecting the minds of humans that watched him for too long. This resulted in earth being invaded by aliens attempting to recapture Ruhar. Some agents of the Foundation escaped the takeover and managed to push a Reset Button, leaving the documents regarding Ruhar as the only evidence of what happened.
  • After the End: Iteration 6 has two remnants of the Foundation in this.
  • All There in the Manual: Some background information for the SCP is explained by the author in the forum. For example, Adidal isn't a name. It's a title that best translates to "God-Emperor". Ruhar (which is a name) is a former military officer who attempted a coup. It failed, he was captured, but then escaped.
  • And I Must Scream: The suffering alien in the transmission, a criminal named Ruhar being punished by an all-powerful ruler Adidal for killing a member of the latter's family, doomed to be kept alive and suffer on public broadcast until the universe grows dark.
  • Big Blackout: The Foundation wipes out global communication to stop the alien signal from spreading. Their response is coming down to do the search manually.
  • Church Militant: After Earth was taken over by Adidal's forces, the Foundation became a hyper-religious organization known as the True Foundation that sees They-That-Watched-Over (Adidal's forces) as gods.
  • Distress Call: The transmission appears to be this, given the video feed in it shows a suffering humanoid alien. It evolves into a Harbinger of Impending Doom as well.
  • The End of the World as We Know It: The Alien Invasion ends destroying civilization, including a theocracy that wound up implemented in America.
  • Easter Egg: The seemingly blank iteration 8 has a hidden Magnolia quote about how History Repeats.
  • Evil Versus Evil: The convict Ruhar who possesses humans with the signal to escape and fight back against Adidal, versus the all-powerful ruler Adidal, who uses the same tactics to try to capture Ruhar on Earth. The humans are used as the pawns in their fight.
  • Extranormal Prison: Ruhar was stuck in one. When he seemed to escape, his captors turn Earth into one.
    For the record, the part of the SCP that's supposed to be horrifying isn't that the ██████ took over the Earth and destroyed the human race entirely, it's that they did so not as an end or for any real reason, but because it was the most straightforward way to contain Ruhar. The entire planet was swept away as collateral damage to the exact sort of operation that the Foundation conducts constantly.
  • Forbidden Chekhov's Gun: The events are undone by combining the SCP that cannot be known and the SCP that MUST not be known, which have only been described in relation to each other as, "Can't fit round pegs in square holes."
  • From Bad to Worse: A few possessed test subjects -> A lot of possessed humans —> Big Blackout attempting to contain the aliens —> The aliens invade.
  • Hoist by His Own Petard: The Foundation finds their entire species being scrubbed away by invaders who are willing to do anything to contain something. Sound familiar?
  • Human Resources: It's implied that the "Recycling Duty" practiced by theocratic "True Foundation" in the After the End timeline involves this. Including cannibalism.
  • Make an Example of Them: The purpose of the broadcast is to make its subject an example to the entire universe of why you do not screw with Adidal.
  • Mind Virus: Seeing the transmission ends up implementing ones about the Adidal ("All glory Adidal. All power. All fall before Adidal. All light bends. All sound spreads. All glory.") and Ruhar ("The accursed was known as Ruhar before its crime. It knows no sound but screams.") in test subjects.
  • Painting the Medium: The Apocalyptic Log was originally different page revisions. Cumbersome navigation (MediaWiki has a "Last\next revision" header; with Wikidot, is not as easy) had them split into pages separated by "Next iteration —->".
  • Psychic Nosebleed: An effect of the Mind Virus.
  • Reset Button: Done by combining SCPs 055 and 579 - i.e. the two that are so vague they are known as [UNKNOWN] and [DATA EXPUNGED]. That's what you get fitting "square peg" into "round hole".
  • Sealed Evil in a Can: The figure in the transmission is an alien convict named Ruhar, who apparently formed the transmission in an attempt to escape. We don't know what he did, but given how he's perfectly A-OK with possessing thousands of humans just to escape, and the god-king Adidal apparently decided destroying human civilization was an acceptable loss to contain him, he probably isn't a spectacularly nice person.
  • Starfish Aliens: The "aliens" are in fact living ideas - though they also have a somewhat traditional visible humanoid form, entirely black with a hardened, nonsegmented carapace.
  • You Kill It, You Bought It: Invading Earth results in the aliens being forced to deal with the SCPs they caused to break free. The surviving agents find this hilarious.
