History SCPFoundation / TropesAToD

%%-->'''Experiment 387-e''': ''Once a normal community of 387 was constructed, a small mound of Megablocks (a common copy of Lego) was placed near the community. When this happened, everything constructed of 387 stopped moving, turned slowly towards the Megablocks and [=[EXPUNGED]=].''

%%** There's [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/broken-masquerade-hub an entire canon of the same name]] based around this concept, which is caused by an [=SCP=] going haywire and obliterating all of North Korea.

* ComboPlatterPowers: Allowing for humanoid [=SCP=]s has resulted in many a Mary Sue being listed. These are generally deleted within time, but the notoriously bad ones are decommissioned: they remain in the series continuity as past [=SCP=]s and are given [[RasputinianDeath elaborate destruction sequences]].

* AllYourPowersCombined: In the antimemetics series this is [[spoiler: how [[GodOfEvil SCP-3125]] is finally defeated. Adam uses his memories and a Class Z Mnestic to bring his wife, Marion, back to life, Hugh uses his newly created mini-EldritchAbomination form to turn Marion into a goddess and Marion enters the idea space to destroy [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3125 SCP-3125]].]]

** The Daevites as described in [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-140 SCP-140]]. Other works on the site that reference them generally don't have anything nice to say, either. [[spoiler: Except SCP-6140, which reveals they'ree a completely normal country that was rewritten into the evil Daevites everyone knows because of an orientalisst Victorian British "anthropologist" named Thomas Bruce]].

** The cured Foundation personnel in [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-5000 SCP-5000]] are unable to feel pain or sympathy and are nearly emotionless. [[spoiler: The hidden dialogue hints that this is ''the natural state of the human race''.]]

* AnotherDimension: [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3008 SCP-3008]], a branch of [=IKEA=] that is BiggerOnTheInside and serves as an infinite PocketDimension to those unlucky enough to step inside. Incredibly easy to get into yet nearly impossible to escape from, 3008 fortunately has everything you'd need to survive in there since the restaurants are mysteriously resupplied with food... but [[PerpetualMotionMonster god help you if the SCP-3008-2 decide to attack.]] Whole civilisations have been built by the people who wound up inside 3008, building rudimentary forts to defend against the marauding 3008-2s.

** The main narrative of [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-5000 SCP-5000]] is framed as an archive of thought-transcribed journal entries stored in the databanks of an inoperative [[PoweredArmor Absolute Exclusion Harness]], written by a Foundation employee who lived through an [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt XK-Class End-of-the-World Scenario]] directly and deliberately caused by [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness the Foundation itself]] long enough [[spoiler: to [[ResetButton reset the universe]]]], causing his dead body and the broken Harness to appear in a flash of light in [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-579 579]]'s chamber.

** April 1st of 2010 involved one (or more) of the mods going through and editing articles into a more humorous state. Details included replacing researcher's profile pictures, and the containment breach of a self-inserting SCP: adding "And Fred was there." to the end of Foundation Tales pages, and general editing of [=SCP=]s (Classification: SUPER KETER)

** Appropriately enough, any [=SCP=] associated with [[MindScrew the Class of '76]] has 76.

** For individual [=SCP=] articles:

*** [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1730 What Happened to Site-13?]] [[spoiler: Answer: Dr. Emerson cruelly experimented on and then terminated the site's many anomalies, and then had them all incinerated. This resulted in a sludge combining various anomalous effects, plus a giant leech monster made from an anomalous young boy who wouldn't burn. Then he used an experimental machine to throw the side into the main wiki's universe.]]

** The Class [=Ds=] are recruited death row inmates, but one will likely feel sorry for them anyway. It's actually been ''dialed back'' considerably; in a lot of older tales and some main entries, the Foundation was depicted as ''deliberately'' getting them killed as fast as possible, since any that made it to the end of the month would be killed anyway. The editors and admins felt this crossed the line between "ruthlessly pragmatic" and StupidEvil.

** The future as described by the future Simon Kells in [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-4989 SCP-4989]] is absolutely hellish, with the Scarlet King dominating the globe aside from a select few holdouts - most notably including the titular [="Site-89"=], the Foundation's last redoubt located in eastern Siberia.
* TheBadGuyWins: Played with with the creator of [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3033 SCP-3033]]: While she is in Foundation custody, she's still [[spoiler: considered a VIP, lives in a comfortable cottage (sans Internet), and is able to ''vivisect one of her victims'' when she (the victim) goes after her for revenge. All that happens afterward is that she's moved to a new cottage]].

** The specimens of SCP-3325-1 [[spoiler: play dead so guards can come near them to get attacked.]]

* BigScrewedUpFamily [[spoiler:The Brights.]] Out of seven family members, three work for the Foundation, [[spoiler:the father, Adam was a junior researcher who rose through the ranks and became an O5, the oldest child, Mikell, was an agent nicknamed "Cowboy," who eventually made it to O5 like his father, and Jack, who was a normal researcher until he died while in contact with [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-963 SCP-963]] and is now immortal by way of [[BodySurf bodysurfing]]]]; two are [=SCPs=] — [[spoiler: Sarah, the youngest child, was stillborn, [[CameBackWrong resurrected imperfectly]], got picked up by the Foundation, and made [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-321 SCP-321]], and Adam spent the rest of his life trying to get her out of the Foundation's custody, without success. TJ, the youngest son, has healing powers that have a rebound kind of effect on himself, and was the one to bring Sarah back. The process was extremely traumatizing, to the point that Jack brought him to the Foundation, where he was made [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-590 SCP-590]] and deliberately given numerous mental afflictions to lower his mental state to that of a toddler's. Jack saw this as doing TJ a kindness, as now he was blissfully unaware of the trauma he had through before.]] Two are working in opposition to the Foundation: [[spoiler:the mother, Evelyn, was a medical assistant who rose up to becoming an O5 with Adam, became fascinated with bioengineering and creating beings out of scratch, and had goals of saving Jack, TJ, and Sarah. The rest of the council were appalled, and wanted her to kill the being she showed them, so she unleashed it in an attempt to kill them, and ran off to eventually join Prometheus Labs. The second-youngest, Claire, is a member of the Serpent's Hand, and leads her own team within it known as the "Little Sisters."]] Considering the [[CloudCuckooLander typical behavior]] of the most prominently featured member of this family, and it's pretty jarring to see all this tragedy behind the quirkiness.

** The Foundation in [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-5000 SCP-5000]] believe that the extermination of humanity is the right thing to do. [[spoiler: Scant references imply that it's thanks to a discovery that humanity itself is abhorrent and anomalous. And if the horrifying revelation that a mind-controlling EldritchAbomination added emotions to humanity's collective subconscious in the past is true, then humans as a whole were ''originally inclined to this kind of morality'' before the being stepped in.]]

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: There’s so many of these it’s hard to name them all.
** Any living human who enters SCP-002 is turned into a form of furniture made of flesh.
** SCP-009 turns a person’s bodily fluids to more red ice when touched, which ends up causing them to painfully freeze to death.
** SCP-012 compels those who encounter it to use their own blood to try finishing the song, however they always end up dying of blood loss before they can.
** In one incident, SCP-015 killed a three-person team by dropping one man into a pipe full of molten glass, sealing a woman inside a mass of pipes and drowning her in honey, and sent the third member sliding down a pipe for days. He survived until his skin finally began to shred off, by which point death was clearly a mercy.
** The needed sacrifice for SCP-089 ends up taking around 2 hours for [[spoiler:the baby to burn to death]].
** SCP-096:
*** Those who see its face will be hunted down by the anomaly indefinitely until it catches them, to which [[NotEnoughToBury absolutely nothing ends up being left of the victim]].
*** [[spoiler:SCP-096 itself ends up experiencing this in Consequences and Collarbones, getting it’s neck bones damaged and then injected with acid, destroying it’s skeleton from the inside out before being gunned down.]]
** SCP-106 is a master at inflicting these. His most preferred option of killing is decaying people alive by touching them. On his page, it’s shown what he does to his victims via a photograph of one, and it is not pretty. In the Broken Masquerade canon, Daniel [=DeVorn=] gets killed by 106 in this way.
** Those who get bit by SCP-149 will have their regenerating cells converted into fertile mosquito eggs, and eventually said eggs will hatch and exit their body in mass in a fatal way.
** SCP-153 will latch onto the face of any person unlucky enough to shower where it is camouflaging, sending an acidic substance into them that quickly liquifies their body, allowing it to feed.
** [=SCP-162’s=] memetic effect will cause people near it to want to jump into the ball, which keep in mind is covered in sharp objects. [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice The expected result]] occurs, with the person frequently changing between enjoying the ball’s grasp to screaming and pain as several sharp objects impale them at once.
** Parodied with [=SCP-173-J=], which will try to hug people so hard that they get crushed by its sheer weight.
** Anyone who touches SCP-302 ends up being stung to death by ants over the course of a few days.
** If a person gets a body part exposed to SCP-310, they will slowly burn to death unless the affected part can be amputated, as the flame cannot be put out by any means.
** Anyone who touches SCP-409 will be slowly crystallised, with the process being described as extremely painful.
** SCP-426 ended up causing this to occur to an entire family; the wife ended up getting electrocuted by trying to consume an electrical socket, the grandmother gorged herself on 10 kg of bread before having her stomach ruptured, and the husband died from blood loss from unknown causes.
** SCP-439 use people as their hives and will use people’s internal organs as their breeding centres and food sources. Yet the person will only die of starvation, [[AndIMustScream and will be left alive and completely conscious throughout then]].
** SCP-469’s wings inject a neurotoxin that [[AgonyBeam activates all pain receptors in the victim’s body]], which leaves them in absolute agony as SCP-469 feeds on their screams until the victim finally dies of blood loss.
** SCP-482 during Time Point Beta will end up triggering BodyHorror in the wearer’s body relating to any mental illnesses they have, which very likely end up fatal without a MercyKill. Incidents include:
*** A man with schizophrenia being contorted and expanded in size until terminated.
*** A man with paranoia growing bulges on his body caused by [[TooManyMouths mouths growing inside]], psychologically tormenting him with voices until termination.
*** A man with satyriasis releasing sperm from every orifice before termination.
*** A woman with hyperphagia gaining a second digestive system that would’ve [[{{Autocannibalism}} autocannibalised]] her from the inside out had it not been for early termination.
*** A man with pyromania [[SpontaneousHumanCombustion spontaneously combusting]] caused by a new organ constantly producing heat.
** When frightened, SCP-538 will bite a victim’s shadow, which ends up leading to a 5 stage cycle lasting a full hour, with victims experiencing red and warm skin, heightened aggression, incredibly cold temperatures and an overly apologetic attitude, and finally their entire body rapidly dissolving into a translucent liquid as their shadow turns into more instances of SCP-538.
** [=SCP-734’s=] bodily fluids can cause anyone who makes skin contact with it to experience mass skin deterioration, with their bones and organs disintegrating over the span of several hours.
** Those who view all 12 photos in SCP-767 will be violently attacked by SCP-767-15, being stabbed and cut by it’s tendrils and experiencing lacerations so severe the corpse isn’t even recognisable, and eventually only a puddle of blood and gore.
** SCP-804’s destruction of man-made artifacts also applies to human tissue, but it will do it at a slower and far more painful rate of decay, slowly making them become emaciated as they lose body mass, and eventually results in their skeletal structure collapsing and their body breaking down into component matter.
** SCP-823 is a master at these. Every single one of it’s kills is unbelievably horrific and bizarre, including:
*** Two individuals, one male and one female, being merged together at several points after exiting the Tunnel Of Love ride.
*** A mascot employee being found with stuffing inside his mouth, trachea and lungs, suffocating him to death.
*** 15 people riding a rollercoaster being decapitated in individual pairs of two.
*** Half an entire Mobile Task Force even received these types of fates, including one having eaten his own ammunition, one seemingly having swallowed his own teeth and broken his own jaw, and one other having received [[OutWithABang forced sexual entry through left eye]].
** SCP-867’s leaves will inject a seed into the skin of whoever touches it, and after around two weeks, will start to grow within the victim, spreading throughout their circulatory system in an extremely painful manner, rupturing the victim’s veins upon enough growth, which leads to severe internal bleeding, before finally bursting through and consuming the victim’s body, all within 24 hours.
** Upon release, SCP-875-1 instances will swarm the nearest person and sting them mercilessly. This would already be bad enough, but the creatures have an [[PoisonIsCorrosive acidic sting]], which ends up rendering people’s limbs completely liquified.
** SCP-956 will paralyze it’s victims (children under 12) and then bludgeon them until their torso ruptures, to which they’ll discharge candy made from their own innards.
** SCP-966 instances kill in an incredibly torturous way. Before feasting, they remove their victim’s ability to sleep and leave them constantly tired, hallucinating and left with deadly insomnia, and then once they strike, they’ll rip them apart and eat them alive.
** Anyone who goes above the speed limit randomly set by SCP-973 will be chased down by the creature until it reaches them, to which their corpses display signs of evisceration, [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil rape]], and one final expunged example, with some incidents having the victims be unrecognisable.
** Every verse of SCP-983’s song will [[RapidAging age the person listening by a year until they’re left as nothing but a skeleton]].
** SCP-987-K presents a scenario where a man trying to install a new chandelier ends up caught in the elaborate lighting fixer, which then ends up causing a wire to wrap around his neck, simultaneously strangling and electrocuting him.
** Those who hear the scream of SCP-1048-A will have ears grow inside of their throats, suffocating them to death.
** SCP-1155 rips its victims apart, puts their body parts in an unknown location it resides in and keeps them to eat later.
** Following the GOC throwing it into a wood chipper, SCP-1609 adopted the killing method of teleporting itself into people’s insides, shredding them apart with internal splinters.
** The people featured in SCP-2030 suffer this every episode, some instances including a woman getting her stomach bursted open by pigeons, a man getting skinned and filled with live squirrels, a woman getting converted into [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext a collection of Margaret Thatchers amalgamations]], and several others.
** SCP-2086 uses a gas similar to chloroform on it’s passengers, to which it then takes them to it’s nesting grounds and lets it’s children feast. The way the children kill their prey is by forcing them into a hole under their hood and taking them to where the driver seat is located, to which small hair-like appendages hold the victim in the driver’s seat and completely drain their blood. The chloroform has most likely worn off at this point, which means [[AndIMustScream the victim is entirely conscious through the process]].
** Parodied with [=SCP-2559-J=], which will flood a room and crush the people in it under the amount of kittens it spews out.
** SCP-2718 is a sort of inversion, where people who die still remain conscious even after death and during decomposition, feeling all the pain that would normally come from it.
** This is the inevitable fate of all SCP-3003-3 instances, who will be harvested for organs while alive and conscious as soon as they are no longer of use. [[BlueAndOrangeMorality They all know this, and don't care one bit]].
** 2376 days after a person makes a deal with SCP-3063, 5000 to 20000 fly eggs will manifest inside their internal organs, and the maggots will hatch and eat the person's flesh (and also reproduce after maturing into flies) until the person dies.
** SCP-3998 burns people to death slowly and painfully if they have ever killed/abused a boyfriend or girlfriend.
** In SCP-4231, the vast majority of North Access, Cornwall was boiled alive as a result of reality becoming unstable due to a mix of Lilly's abuse of Francis and Lilly's physical pain from giving birth to her and Francis' daughter.
** If someone tries to disturb SCP-4595-A, any empty space within their body will end up filling with desert locusts, causing them to be unable to breathe and eventually collapse dead.
** SCP-4666 will inflict this upon the children it’s kidnapped who refuse to continue working, having them made into crude toys made out of their flesh and organs. One of it’s victims, a young girl converted into a doll, was still conscious when she was discovered and only died a few hours afterwards.
** When someone learns of SCP-4885’s location, it'll teleport inside of them and emerge from their throat, killing them instantly by destroying their organs and bones in the process. If they're within its reach, it will instead force itself down their throat and [[GroinAttack explode out of their pelvis]]. As if either wasn't enough, their carcass also gets covered in yellow gunge that gives way to Literature/WheresWally illustrations coating their skin, and those bodies also share the same properties as SCP-4885 itself - being aware of the corpses' location also means you get turned into a human-shaped Where's Wally page too, and so on and so forth.
** SCP-4975 doesn’t kill it’s victim right away, instead stalking them for months on end, but when it does kill, it does so in a super violent way. It clubs and tears the victim apart using it’s sharp appendages, and then consumes them, often when the victim is still alive.
** SCP-5172-1 kills by trapping their victim in a form of sleep paralysis, before using a pair of tools to harvest 4 cm cubes from the victim’s body, continuing for around 2 to 3 hours until only the central nervous system remains. Somehow, the victim remains alive, and continues to live for several hours. Victims who had survived have stated to [[AndIMustScream have been left conscious during the process]], and had described the process as excruciatingly painful.
** Dying from immolation is already pretty horrible, but SCP-6630’s method of it is way, way worse: First, its combustion is much slower, lasting hours if not days. Second, it keeps the victims alive the entire time, and conscious for about a third of the total burn time (immolation victims usually pass out from pain in a few minutes).
** SCP-7992 killed James Harrison by ripping all his limbs off and decapitating him, apparently while all still alive. [[spoiler:However, it's revealed that 7992 is Harrison, and it remains ambiguous as to whether his method of achieving immortality involved him butchering his original body or the Foundation made the whole thing up to prevent anyone from figuring out Harrison's success.]]
** While not explicitly confirmed what happened to him, [[spoiler:when Robert Scranton finally materialised back into our reality, all that was left of him was a mass of blood, vomit and rotten skin, which implies his death was not at all pleasant.]]
** James Anderson, the founder of the Factory, would face this in Bright’s SCP-001 proposal. He was [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill eviscerated, hung from his office window with his own intestines, cut down, disemboweled, dismembered and incinerated]], all while alive for the entire experience.

* CloningBlues:
** In [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scantron-s-proposal Scantron's Proposal of SCP-001]], Agent Dixon and others were cloned by the anomaly.
** [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1610 SCP-1610]] is a mysterious liquid that can make six clones out of one person without harming the original. The clones are okay with their situation (they're not supposed to be sapient), it's their creators who had problems with them, especially after [[spoiler:turning their head researcher and his loyal secretary into test subjects]]:
--->'''Prometheus Labs researcher''': I didn't come to work here so that I could commit murder over and over again. We're making no fucking progress and the higher ups fucking know it. The project should've stopped after the first week. Goodbye. I'm burning my body so you bastards can't fucking kill me more than I want to be killed.
--->'''Another researcher''': I only wanted to help.\\
All we've done is make humans that want to be killed.\\
It crossed the line when they programmed in the phrase, [[ConditionedToAcceptHorror "I wanted to die.]]"

** Last but not least, MTF Alpha-1 ("Red Right Hand"), a task force comprised of the most loyal Foundation agents operating under the strictest operational security and reporting directly to the O5 Council. This is the Foundation's ''in-house black ops division''. And they still meed their match in MTG Omega-1 ("Law's Left Hand"), their Ethics Committee counterpart, and Rēsh-1 ("Seat of Consciousness"), the Administrator's personal task force. These two are apparently so secret that ''not even the O5 Council knows about them''.

*** Half an entire Mobile Task Force even received these types of fates, including one having eaten his own ammunition, one seemingly having swallowed his own teeth and broken his own jaw, and one other having received [[GoOutWithABang forced sexual entry through left eye]].

* {{Area 51}}: [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1051 SCP-1051]] is a somewhat unique take on this. The base isn't where they research aliens, the base ''is'' the alien.

* BreathWeapon: [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-5467 SCP-5467]], an extinct species of bird which was capable of using fire to kill and cook its prey. They were ultimately wiped out by the Daevites, who used their ashes as a FantasticDrug.

** "We [[ArtifactCollectionAgency Secure.]] We [[SealedEvilInACan Contain.]] We [[NecessaryEvil Protect.]]"

** Does [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/jonathan-ball-s-proposal Jonathan Ball's proposal]] bring other [=SCPs=] into eistence, or merely alert the Foundation to their existence?

** The setting is ''so'' unremittingly awful that one anomalous race of eldritch shapeshifters have become aware of just how bad it is and are now overwhelmed with terror at ''everything'', hence why they're all in hiding.
-->…how do you work at the Foundation and not realize what kind of world you live in, Marcus? The cosmic nightmares, the malignant godlings, the insane societies at war, the hordes of monsters beyond counting, the doomsdays upon doomsdays… there's so much that can't be stopped, so many things that could end everything, even in the better worlds that some have envisioned-

* {{Cameo}}: A couple of the joke [=SCPs=] — and a few of the regular ones as well.

* DarkerAndEdgier: The Never Hungry Man was changed from an SCP who was released back into the general public when his condition posed no threat to a man with worms that have faces in his stomach that leap out at people. In fact, this is typically the fate of many SCP drafts whom are said to be either too bland or not have a good hook. Then again, sometimes there's ''too much'' senseless edginess that gets removed.

* DeadlyGame: [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-024 SCP-024]] is a studio housing a deadly game show, and [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-263 SCP-263]] is a television that forces viewers into a deadly quiz show (if they answer wrong).
* DeadManWriting: In [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/mackenzie-s-proposal Dr. Mackenzie's Proposal of SCP-001]]:
** In one of the pages of The Administrator's diary it says "If you are in possession of — and reading — this document then I am probably dead." The last page was written by someone who loved The Administrator in their original reality. They write "By the time you read this, I will already be dead."

* {{Deconstruction}}: [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-239 SCP-239]] and her fate is a deconstruction of ''Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya''-style {{Reality Warper}}s.
** As well as the [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/termination-order Termination Report]] of [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/decomm:scp-531-d SCP-531]].
** [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/video-oddity This Tale]] may well be one of the FantasticNatureReserve trope.

* {{Deconstruction}}: [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-239 SCP-239]] and her fate is a deconstruction of ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya''-style {{Reality Warper}}s.

*** A man with paranoia growing bulges on his body caused by [[TooManyMouthes mouthes growing inside]], psychologically tormenting him with voices until termination.

** Those who see the face of SCP-096 will be hunted down by the anomaly indefinitely until it catches them, to which [[NotEnoughToBury absolutely nothing ends up being left of the victim]].

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: There’s so many of these it’s hard to count.

** SCP-966 instances kill in an incredibly torturous way. Before feasting, they remove their victim’s ability to sleep and leave them constantly tired, hallucinating and left with deadly insomnia, and then once they strike, they’ll rip them apart and eat them alive.

** The needed sacrifice for SCP-089 ends up taking around 2 hours for [[spoiler:the baby to burn to death]].

* AlternateHistory: The [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/aces-and-eights Aces and Eights]] canon shows a timeline where the American Civil War went on until 1867, Lincoln survived his presidency and lives in self-imposed exile, women have voting rights in the late 1800s (albeit only if they are veterans of the war), and the Foundation ceases to exist after the Confederate Army razes Baltimore, possibly using anomalous means. InSpiteOfANail, several Foundation characters exist in a WeirdWest timeline, albeit in altered forms — SCP-049 is a female doctor with a porcelain mask covering her face, the Church of the Broken God are stand-ins for Mormons, and SCP-008 is ravaging the West, resulting in colonies of "Rotties" appearing.

* CymbalBangingMonkey: There's a Cymbal Banging Monkey in [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-983 SCP-983]] that targets and [[DiedOnTheirBirthday kills people on their birthdays]] by [[OvernightAgeUp rapidly aging a person with each ring until they die]]. It only stops if the person sings along to the toy's birthday song or dies.

** SCP-093, "The Red Sea Object", is a red stone disc which, when attached to a mirror, opens a gateway into what appears to be an [[AlternateUniverse alternate Earth]] where something seriously ''wrong'' had gone down. Human civilisation appeared to possess high technology and was controlled by a [[TheTheocracy totalitarian religious authority]], but the test subjects and MTF agents the Foundation sent into this alternate reality found no people, animals or even corpses: only [[TheBlank monstrous empty-faced]] [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe torso creatures]] that hunted them down. [[spoiler:Eventually, the Foundation find a relatively coherent explanation which describes how a godlike HumanoidAbomination known only as "He" provided the alternate humans with advanced tech and a substance known as [[AppliedPhlebotinum His Holy Tears]]. This liquid apparently possessed healing properties but could also [[WasOnceAMan turn people into the faceless monsters]], who eventually overwhelmed humanity.]]
