!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3000 SCP-3000]] - [[Myth/HinduMythology Anantashesha]]
* AdaptationalVillainy: The mythological Anantashesha is simply Vishnu's bed. Here, it actively eats people and destroys their sanity, though it might just be an anomalous animal operating on pure instinct.
* AnimalisticAbomination: It resembles a massive moray eel. However, it is clearly nothing of the kind. It may or may not be a deity, but either way it's a huge serpentine monster that destroys people's minds with its mere presence.
* AmbiguousSituation: [[spoiler:It is unclear if SCP-3000 is the actual deity Anantashesha or merely a powerful being. The doctor who initially thought SCP-3000 was Anantashesha [[OhCrap changed his mind immediately before he was consumed by SCP-3000.]]]]
%%* DoingInTheScientist: If you've ever found the Foundation's amnestics to be so unrealistic that they seemed as anomalous as the [=SCPs=] themselves... guess what?
* EldritchAbomination: SCP-3000 shows heavy shades of this, given its effect on memory, dreams and cognition. It's implied that looking at the eel [[spoiler:makes one realize how insignificant their life is, and that they will return to inert matter and be forgotten in the span of the TimeAbyss, in which the eel will continue to live on forever.]] While it will readily snap up the humans offered to it, it ''does not digest them.'' Scans indicate that its insides are full of intact human bodies. [[spoiler: Given what it does to peoples' minds, it is entirely possible every human it's eaten are trapped in some AndIMustScream phenomenon, still aware but otherwise with their minds destroyed entirely.]]
* HumanSacrifice: [[spoiler: The eel may or may not be a god, but the Foundation is sacrificing humans to it anyway for an extremely important asset in preserving their masquerade.]]
* MindRape: It does this by its sheer presence. People's memories are affected, and they start losing themselves. It gets worse the closer to the eel you get, with the initial dive team eventually having their minds entirely destroyed. Worse, it also can ''give'' you the memories of others. One scientist got a nasty shock when he realized his wife and child were actually the relatives of his deceased coworker, while he was single and childless. He still remembered raising the child and being in love with the woman despite ''never having done so.'' This drove him mad.
* NecessarilyEvil: [[spoiler:Feeding SCP-3000 humans and harvesting the resulting Y-909 is considered this by the Ethics Committee and O5 Council. They are working to minimize human interaction with SCP-3000, but still designate it as a Thaumiel-class entity given the use of Y-909 in amnestics and feed it humans periodically.]]
* NobodyPoops: Zig-zagged. A sudden horror comes from the fact that it's stuffed with undigested, decaying prey, [[spoiler: but the waste SCP-3000 produces from seemingly breaking down sapience/the soul/some other supernatural facet of the mind (designated Y-909) is necessary for use in amnestics. This is why the Foundation needs to feed it D-class.]]
* SanitySlippage: A side-effect, given the eel's powerful MindRape abilities, is that any people in its vicinity will slowly begin to lose touch with reality. It is designated a major cognitohazard.
* SlipperyAsAnEel: A ''gigantic'' moray eel estimated between 600 and 900 kilometers long, living off of the Ganges delta.
* ToServeMan: [[spoiler: SCP-3000 only eats humans. The Foundation feeds it D-class personnel to harvest Y-909.]]
* {{Unobtanium}}: The Y-909 compound SCP-3000 produces, which so far has no artificial equal. [[spoiler: It is critical to modern amnestics and can only be produced if SCP-3000 is fed humans.]]

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3125 SCP-3125]] - The Escapee
* AlienGeometries: It takes the "form" of an immense, Θ'-dimensional fractal topology, with Θ' being SCP-033, the "missing" integer.
* TheAssimilator: Any human who comes into contact with it has their mind destroyed and replaced with 3125's core ideas, which they become wholly devoted to serving and spreading.
* BigBad: It is the main antagonist of the Antimemetics Division Hub tales and the biggest threat the Division has to deal with.
* EldritchAbomination: It is a massive, extradimensional meme complex that intersects the entire universe except for its "containment chamber" (actually an area of exclusion). It also hails from a realm where ideas are far more aggressive than those humans are capable of having, making it ''incredibly'' dangerous.
* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: What the results of its arrival will be, since "humanity" as we know it will cease to be as meaningful as a concept. [[spoiler: The Foundation has no way to prevent this from happening]].
* GiantSpider: While not one itself, 3125 is associated with huge antimemetic spiders that seem to be parts of its greater whole.
* GreaterScopeVillain: According to the tales in the Antimemetics Division Hub (specifically [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/case-colourless-green CASE COLOURLESS GREEN]], SCP-3125 is responsible for Fifthist Church, as well as a large number of other memetic and interdimensional anomalies.
* HumanoidAbomination: What those possessed by it become. They don't actually look any different, but [[MindScrew they cannot be recognized as humans]].
** In the Antimemetics Division tales, it also has an apparent "avatar" that looks like a man in his early twenties.
* MeaningfulName: There's a popular theory that SCP-3125 is the central deity of the Fifth Church. If true, then its SCP number (3125 = 5[[superscript:5]]) is very significant.
* RetGone: Anyone who perceives 3125's true shape is instantly obliterated in this fashion by its defense mechanism, along with "mental bystanders" connected to ideas held by the victim (usually colleagues and family).
* YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm: Once you do, you and every "mental bystander" of yours is gone.

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3143 SCP-3143]] - Murphy Law in… The Foundation Always Rings Twice!
* AffectionateParody: Of 1930s-1950s film noir gumshoes.
* AmbiguouslyGay: Law's original author, [=TheGreatHippo=], has stated that they see Law as being homosexual. However, in the actual articles and Tales featuring Law, he's portrayed as being hyper-focused on solving the current case to the point of [[NotDistractedByTheSexy being completely dismissive of any]] {{Fanservice}} on offer (regardless of what audience it is intended for), to the point where Law comes across as more {{asexual}} than anything else.
* AuthorAvatar: SCP-3143 ("Murphy Law") is really just a self-insert for his author, Murphy Lawden (designated SCP-3143-A). [[spoiler:Except this is just a lie cooked up by the Foundation to deconstruct and contain SCP-3143. Murphy Law doesn't really have an author, as far as anyone can tell.]]
* BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame: When Dr. Thaum contains SCP-3143 by deconstructing him, Murphy Law escapes by deconstructing Dr. Thaum--and the baseline reality Foundation to boot.
* CatchPhrase: "I'm Murphy Law. I'm who you call when whatever can go wrong... did."
* EpiphanicPrison: All it takes for Murphy to break out of containment is to question the Foundation's narrative. Then they can't stop him from just walking out.
* {{Expy}}: [[invoked]] As lampshaded per WordOfGod, Murphy Law is essentially what would happen if [[ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes Tracer Bullet]] ever became a sapient RealityWarper.
* FilmNoir: His aesthetic draws from this, but it's downplayed as he's more on the lighter "hardbitten AntiHero with a good-hearted streak" (think Literature/PhilipMarlowe and his ilk) rather than the darker "doomed VillainProtagonist with a weak will" side of things.
* GutturalGrowler: Murphy Law.
-->His voice is a husky snarl; as if he's got a throat stuffed full of sand-paper and rusty nails.
%%* HandCannon: Murphy Law's .44 Magnum.
%%* HardboiledDetective: Murphy Law, of course.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Repeatedly lampshaded, to the point where the Foundation's Pataphysics Department points out how he's ultimately too much of a "white knight" despite his cynical bluster to be properly compared to other FilmNoir protagonists.
* PaintingTheMedium: Both of the skips he's featured in are written in the style of movie scripts to reflect him as an AffectionateParody of FilmNoir films from UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfHollywood.
* PsychopathicManchild: As his author has noted, Murphy Law is basically a sentient anomaly with the mentality of a little kid who warps reality to play out the role of a heroic PrivateDetective.
* PunnyName: Murphy Law (based on [[FinaglesLaw "Murphy's law"]]). [[LampshadeHanging Dr. Thaum even calls him out]] for having a name "based on an absurdly contrived pun."
%%* NiceHat: Murphy Law's "trademark trilby hat".
* NoirEpisode: Murphy Law warps everything around him into a FilmNoir narrative.
* RealityWarper: SCP-3143 (aka Murphy Law) blurs the line between this and AuthorPowers. He has the ability to merge multiple layers of fiction and reality into a single narrative, which he then warps into a hardboiled crime story, with himself as the protagonist. When he leaves records of his activities, they always take the form of a FilmNoir screenplay. It seems he can override SCP-3043's powers this way, though he needs to follow the "rules" of his own powers/genre to do so.
* StevenUlyssesPerhero: "Murphy Law" is the AuthorAvatar of one ''Murphy Lawden''. [[spoiler:Except Murphy Lawden doesn't really exist. That's just a story cooked up by the Foundation.]]

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3774 SCP-3774]] - My Heart [=DEETs=] Faster For You
A list of Leslie's appearances can be found [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/system:page-tags/tag/leslie here]].
* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Leslie dies, and due to their defects, all other SCP-3774 specimens are exterminated. However, she implanted offspring in Merle before dying, and the Foundation [[PetTheDog not only let Merle keep his memories of her (only erasing the part where she's a mosquito and that they were only dating for a month) but also let the children grow up in a normal neighborhood]].]]
* {{Cyborg}}: SCP-3774 are (predominantly female) mosquitoes outfitted with bio-mechanical augmentations.
* HalfHumanHybrid: [[spoiler:Subverted; despite their DNA being 50% mosquito in origin, the offspring left behind by SCP-3774-2432/Leslie are biologically completely human.]]
* InterspeciesRomance: Installment of the ability to imitate human voices led to SCP-3774 specimens becoming infatuated with any individual they bite. The bulk of the article is thus taken up by a romance between an ordinary human man and a cyborg mosquito.
* MayflyDecemberRomance: Ultimately, SCP-3774 is still constrained by the average mosquito's lifespan, meaning that Leslie and Merle's romance only lasts for a month before ending in Leslie's death.
* MisterSeahorse: [[spoiler:As demonstrated by the dying Leslie, SCP-3774 instances ''can'' produce viable offspring with humans by implanting them into the human's body, where they begin to gestate.]]
* OneGenderRace: Invoked; the Foundation specifically made them produce offspring that are 90% female due to their blood-sucking capacity and longer lifespan.
* SomeoneToRememberHimBy: [[spoiler:Leslie lives just long enough to implant her offspring in Merle.]]
* SurveillanceDrone: Mosquitoes outfitted for surveillance by the Foundation.
* YouAreNumberSix: 3774-2432 notes that she's only been known as "2432" all her life. Her mate thus gives her the name "Leslie" because she apparently sounds like the actress Leslie Caron.

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3885 SCP-3885]] The High-Octane Full-Throttle Adventures of the Exploding Zombie Gearheads
* AchievementsInIgnorance: They manage to set a rock on fire. They consider this a success.
* CoolCar: They ''try'' to build these, but they're lucky if they just get a pile of useless parts.
* DarkIsNotEvil: They're known to make threats to get more car parts, but they've never actually hurt anybody, and they're fine with the Foundation sealing them up behind a concrete barrier as long as the Foundation keeps providing them with parts.
* TheDitz: The spend all of their time building or altering vehicles, which almost always fail because they don't know anything about mechanical engineering. A conversation between two shows that they don't know much about anything else, either.
* {{Expy}}: They're based off of the typical villains from ''Mad Max'', though they're more interested in building cars that the RapePillageAndBurn.
* IncendiaryExponent: They like adding flamethrowers to their cars, which tends to lead to creations that work better as bombs.
* MadeOfIron: Setting yourself on fire or driving your car into another are just funs ways for them to pass the time.
* RuleOfCool: Their main goal is to build the coolest vehicles they can think of.

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3999 SCP-3999]] - I Am At The Center of Everything That Happens To Me
'''Tropes associated with Researcher Talloran:'''
* BoredWithInsanity: Talloran admits that [[spoiler: for the first million years or so, he legitimately was broken down several times; it's just that even millions of years of torture eventually becomes nothing new if it goes on for long enough.]]
-->''"I am numb to your bullshit, because here's the thing about horror and weirdness: the more you reveal of it, the less effect it has. I am sick of your horror. I am sick of you."''
* {{Determinator}}: After [[spoiler: millions of years of torture unfolding from his perspective,]] he not only keeps his sanity, but actively continues to fight against his captor the entire time. In the SCP Foundation universe, where people lose their sanity as a result of being merely [[spoiler: tortured by paranormal entities for decades]], Talloran's sheer resilience is a remarkable thing in the Foundation universe. Though there's also a deconstruction, see BoredWithInsanity above.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Talloran [[spoiler:brings reality under order for a while]], then conducts an interview with SCP-3999 and proceeds [[spoiler:[[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to mock it for repeatedly torturing him through exceedingly cruel and stupid methods]].]]
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:Talloran actually overcomes his captor, ending the continuous rewriting of reality, at [[BittersweetEnding the cost of his own life]].]]
* DudeNotFunny: Researcher Talloran's view on everything happening to him. [[spoiler: He does not appreciate the monkier of "3D printer".]]
* HeroicSacrifice [[spoiler:Researcher Talloran succeeds in terminating SCP-3999, but dies doing so.]]
* LivingMacguffin: Researcher Talloran is heavily connected to SCP-3999. [[spoiler: It is indicated SCP-3999 has been tormenting him for (from his perspective) [[AndIMustScream millions of years.]] And of course, SCP-3999 is the author struggling to find some situation to put Talloran in prior to the SCP-3000 contest.]]
%%* RageAgainstTheAuthor: In fact, Researcher Talloran has been doing this for a few million years, if he's telling the truth about how long he's been tortured by the author.

'''Tropes associated with Researcher Talloran:'''
* BoredWithInsanity: Talloran admits that [[spoiler: for the first million years or so, he legitimately was broken down several times; it's just that even millions of years of torture eventually becomes nothing new if it goes on for long enough.]]
-->''"I am numb to your bullshit, because here's the thing about horror and weirdness: the more you reveal of it, the less effect it has. I am sick of your horror. I am sick of you."''
* {{Determinator}}: After [[spoiler: millions of years of torture unfolding from his perspective,]] he not only keeps his sanity, but actively continues to fight against his captor the entire time. In the SCP Foundation universe, where people lose their sanity as a result of being merely [[spoiler: tortured by paranormal entities for decades]], Talloran's sheer resilience is a remarkable thing in the Foundation universe. Though there's also a deconstruction, see BoredWithInsanity above.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Talloran [[spoiler:brings reality under order for a while]], then conducts an interview with SCP-3999 and proceeds [[spoiler:[[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to mock it for repeatedly torturing him through exceedingly cruel and stupid methods]].]]
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:Talloran actually overcomes his captor, ending the continuous rewriting of reality, at [[BittersweetEnding the cost of his own life]].]]
* DudeNotFunny: Researcher Talloran's view on everything happening to him. [[spoiler: He does not appreciate the monkier of "3D printer".]]
* HeroicSacrifice [[spoiler:Researcher Talloran succeeds in terminating SCP-3999, but dies doing so.]]
* LivingMacguffin: Researcher Talloran is heavily connected to SCP-3999. [[spoiler: It is indicated SCP-3999 has been tormenting him for (from his perspective) [[AndIMustScream millions of years.]] And of course, SCP-3999 is the author struggling to find some situation to put Talloran in prior to the SCP-3000 contest.]]

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3000 SCP-3000]] - [[Myth/HinduMythology Anantashesha]]
* AdaptationalVillainy: The mythological Anantashesha is simply Vishnu's bed. Here, it actively eats people and destroys their sanity, though it might just be an anomalous animal operating on pure instinct.
* AnimalisticAbomination: It resembles a massive moray eel. However, it is clearly nothing of the kind. It may or may not be a deity, but either way it's a huge serpentine monster that destroys people's minds with its mere presence.
* AmbiguousSituation: [[spoiler:It is unclear if SCP-3000 is the actual deity Anantashesha or merely a powerful being. The doctor who initially thought SCP-3000 was Anantashesha [[OhCrap changed his mind immediately before he was consumed by SCP-3000.]]]]
%%* DoingInTheScientist: If you've ever found the Foundation's amnestics to be so unrealistic that they seemed as anomalous as the [=SCPs=] themselves... guess what?
* EldritchAbomination: SCP-3000 shows heavy shades of this, given its effect on memory, dreams and cognition. It's implied that looking at the eel [[spoiler:makes one realize how insignificant their life is, and that they will return to inert matter and be forgotten in the span of the TimeAbyss, in which the eel will continue to live on forever.]] While it will readily snap up the humans offered to it, it ''does not digest them.'' Scans indicate that its insides are full of intact human bodies. [[spoiler: Given what it does to peoples' minds, it is entirely possible every human it's eaten are trapped in some AndIMustScream phenomenon, still aware but otherwise with their minds destroyed entirely.]]
* HumanSacrifice: [[spoiler: The eel may or may not be a god, but the Foundation is sacrificing humans to it anyway for an extremely important asset in preserving their masquerade.]]
* MindRape: It does this by its sheer presence. People's memories are affected, and they start losing themselves. It gets worse the closer to the eel you get, with the initial dive team eventually having their minds entirely destroyed. Worse, it also can ''give'' you the memories of others. One scientist got a nasty shock when he realized his wife and child were actually the relatives of his deceased coworker, while he was single and childless. He still remembered raising the child and being in love with the woman despite ''never having done so.'' This drove him mad.
* NecessarilyEvil: [[spoiler:Feeding SCP-3000 humans and harvesting the resulting Y-909 is considered this by the Ethics Committee and O5 Council. They are working to minimize human interaction with SCP-3000, but still designate it as a Thaumiel-class entity given the use of Y-909 in amnestics and feed it humans periodically.]]
* NobodyPoops: Zig-zagged. A sudden horror comes from the fact that it's stuffed with undigested, decaying prey, [[spoiler: but the waste SCP-3000 produces from seemingly breaking down sapience/the soul/some other supernatural facet of the mind (designated Y-909) is necessary for use in amnestics. This is why the Foundation needs to feed it D-class.]]
* SanitySlippage: A side-effect, given the eel's powerful MindRape abilities, is that any people in its vicinity will slowly begin to lose touch with reality. It is designated a major cognitohazard.
* SlipperyAsAnEel: A ''gigantic'' moray eel estimated between 600 and 900 kilometers long, living off of the Ganges delta.
* ToServeMan: [[spoiler: SCP-3000 only eats humans. The Foundation feeds it D-class personnel to harvest Y-909.]]
* {{Unobtanium}}: The Y-909 compound SCP-3000 produces, which so far has no artificial equal. [[spoiler: It is critical to modern amnestics and can only be produced if SCP-3000 is fed humans.]]

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3125 SCP-3125]] - The Escapee
* AlienGeometries: It takes the "form" of an immense, Θ'-dimensional fractal topology, with Θ' being SCP-033, the "missing" integer.
* TheAssimilator: Any human who comes into contact with it has their mind destroyed and replaced with 3125's core ideas, which they become wholly devoted to serving and spreading.
* BigBad: It is the main antagonist of the Antimemetics Division Hub tales and the biggest threat the Division has to deal with.
* EldritchAbomination: It is a massive, extradimensional meme complex that intersects the entire universe except for its "containment chamber" (actually an area of exclusion). It also hails from a realm where ideas are far more aggressive than those humans are capable of having, making it ''incredibly'' dangerous.
* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: What the results of its arrival will be, since "humanity" as we know it will cease to be as meaningful as a concept. [[spoiler: The Foundation has no way to prevent this from happening]].
* GiantSpider: While not one itself, 3125 is associated with huge antimemetic spiders that seem to be parts of its greater whole.
* GreaterScopeVillain: According to the tales in the Antimemetics Division Hub (specifically [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/case-colourless-green CASE COLOURLESS GREEN]], SCP-3125 is responsible for Fifthist Church, as well as a large number of other memetic and interdimensional anomalies.
* HumanoidAbomination: What those possessed by it become. They don't actually look any different, but [[MindScrew they cannot be recognized as humans]].
** In the Antimemetics Division tales, it also has an apparent "avatar" that looks like a man in his early twenties.
* MeaningfulName: There's a popular theory that SCP-3125 is the central deity of the Fifth Church. If true, then its SCP number (3125 = 5[[superscript:5]]) is very significant.
* RetGone: Anyone who perceives 3125's true shape is instantly obliterated in this fashion by its defense mechanism, along with "mental bystanders" connected to ideas held by the victim (usually colleagues and family).
* YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm: Once you do, you and every "mental bystander" of yours is gone.

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3143 SCP-3143]] - Murphy Law in… The Foundation Always Rings Twice!
* AffectionateParody: Of 1930s-1950s film noir gumshoes.
* AmbiguouslyGay: Law's original author, [=TheGreatHippo=], has stated that they see Law as being homosexual. However, in the actual articles and Tales featuring Law, he's portrayed as being hyper-focused on solving the current case to the point of [[NotDistractedByTheSexy being completely dismissive of any]] {{Fanservice}} on offer (regardless of what audience it is intended for), to the point where Law comes across as more {{asexual}} than anything else.
* AuthorAvatar: SCP-3143 ("Murphy Law") is really just a self-insert for his author, Murphy Lawden (designated SCP-3143-A). [[spoiler:Except this is just a lie cooked up by the Foundation to deconstruct and contain SCP-3143. Murphy Law doesn't really have an author, as far as anyone can tell.]]
* BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame: When Dr. Thaum contains SCP-3143 by deconstructing him, Murphy Law escapes by deconstructing Dr. Thaum--and the baseline reality Foundation to boot.
* CatchPhrase: "I'm Murphy Law. I'm who you call when whatever can go wrong... did."
* EpiphanicPrison: All it takes for Murphy to break out of containment is to question the Foundation's narrative. Then they can't stop him from just walking out.
* {{Expy}}: [[invoked]] As lampshaded per WordOfGod, Murphy Law is essentially what would happen if [[ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes Tracer Bullet]] ever became a sapient RealityWarper.
* FilmNoir: His aesthetic draws from this, but it's downplayed as he's more on the lighter "hardbitten AntiHero with a good-hearted streak" (think Literature/PhilipMarlowe and his ilk) rather than the darker "doomed VillainProtagonist with a weak will" side of things.
* GutturalGrowler: Murphy Law.
-->His voice is a husky snarl; as if he's got a throat stuffed full of sand-paper and rusty nails.
%%* HandCannon: Murphy Law's .44 Magnum.
%%* HardboiledDetective: Murphy Law, of course.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Repeatedly lampshaded, to the point where the Foundation's Pataphysics Department points out how he's ultimately too much of a "white knight" despite his cynical bluster to be properly compared to other FilmNoir protagonists.
* PaintingTheMedium: Both of the skips he's featured in are written in the style of movie scripts to reflect him as an AffectionateParody of FilmNoir films from UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfHollywood.
* PsychopathicManchild: As his author has noted, Murphy Law is basically a sentient anomaly with the mentality of a little kid who warps reality to play out the role of a heroic PrivateDetective.
* PunnyName: Murphy Law (based on [[FinaglesLaw "Murphy's law"]]). [[LampshadeHanging Dr. Thaum even calls him out]] for having a name "based on an absurdly contrived pun."
%%* NiceHat: Murphy Law's "trademark trilby hat".
* NoirEpisode: Murphy Law warps everything around him into a FilmNoir narrative.
* RealityWarper: SCP-3143 (aka Murphy Law) blurs the line between this and AuthorPowers. He has the ability to merge multiple layers of fiction and reality into a single narrative, which he then warps into a hardboiled crime story, with himself as the protagonist. When he leaves records of his activities, they always take the form of a FilmNoir screenplay. It seems he can override SCP-3043's powers this way, though he needs to follow the "rules" of his own powers/genre to do so.
* StevenUlyssesPerhero: "Murphy Law" is the AuthorAvatar of one ''Murphy Lawden''. [[spoiler:Except Murphy Lawden doesn't really exist. That's just a story cooked up by the Foundation.]]

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Leslie dies, and due to their defects, all other SCP-3774 specimens are exterminated. However, she implanted offspring in Merle before dying, and the Foundation [[PetTheDog not only let Merle keep his memories of her (only erasing the part where she's a mosquito and that they were only dating for a month) but also let the children grow up in a normal neighborhood]].]]
* {{Cyborg}}: SCP-3774 are (predominantly female) mosquitoes outfitted with bio-mechanical augmentations.
* HalfHumanHybrid: [[spoiler:Subverted; despite their DNA being 50% mosquito in origin, the offspring left behind by SCP-3774-2432/Leslie are biologically completely human.]]
* InterspeciesRomance: Installment of the ability to imitate human voices led to SCP-3774 specimens becoming infatuated with any individual they bite. The bulk of the article is thus taken up by a romance between an ordinary human man and a cyborg mosquito.
* MayflyDecemberRomance: Ultimately, SCP-3774 is still constrained by the average mosquito's lifespan, meaning that Leslie and Merle's romance only lasts for a month before ending in Leslie's death.
* MisterSeahorse: [[spoiler:As demonstrated by the dying Leslie, SCP-3774 instances ''can'' produce viable offspring with humans by implanting them into the human's body, where they begin to gestate.]]
* OneGenderRace: Invoked; the Foundation specifically made them produce offspring that are 90% female due to their blood-sucking capacity and longer lifespan.

* IncendiaryExponent: They like adding flamethrowers to their cars, which tends to lead to creations that work better as bombs.
* MadeOfIron: Setting yourself on fire or driving your car into another are just funs ways for them to pass the time.
* RuleOfCool: Their main goal is to build the coolest vehicles they can think of.

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3999 SCP-3999]] - I Am At The Center of Everything That Happens To Me
'''Tropes associated with Researcher Talloran:'''
* BoredWithInsanity: Talloran admits that [[spoiler: for the first million years or so, he legitimately was broken down several times; it's just that even millions of years of torture eventually becomes nothing new if it goes on for long enough.]]
-->''"I am numb to your bullshit, because here's the thing about horror and weirdness: the more you reveal of it, the less effect it has. I am sick of your horror. I am sick of you."''
* {{Determinator}}: After [[spoiler: millions of years of torture unfolding from his perspective,]] he not only keeps his sanity, but actively continues to fight against his captor the entire time. In the SCP Foundation universe, where people lose their sanity as a result of being merely [[spoiler: tortured by paranormal entities for decades]], Talloran's sheer resilience is a remarkable thing in the Foundation universe. Though there's also a deconstruction, see BoredWithInsanity above.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Talloran [[spoiler:brings reality under order for a while]], then conducts an interview with SCP-3999 and proceeds [[spoiler:[[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to mock it for repeatedly torturing him through exceedingly cruel and stupid methods]].]]
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:Talloran actually overcomes his captor, ending the continuous rewriting of reality, at [[BittersweetEnding the cost of his own life]].]]
* DudeNotFunny: Researcher Talloran's view on everything happening to him. [[spoiler: He does not appreciate the monkier of "3D printer".]]
* HeroicSacrifice [[spoiler:Researcher Talloran succeeds in terminating SCP-3999, but dies doing so.]]
* LivingMacguffin: Researcher Talloran is heavily connected to SCP-3999. [[spoiler: It is indicated SCP-3999 has been tormenting him for (from his perspective) [[AndIMustScream millions of years.]] And of course, SCP-3999 is the author struggling to find some situation to put Talloran in prior to the SCP-3000 contest.]]
%%* RageAgainstTheAuthor: In fact, Researcher Talloran has been doing this for a few million years, if he's telling the truth about how long he's been tortured by the author.

to:

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3000 SCP-3000]] - [[Myth/HinduMythology Anantashesha]]
* AdaptationalVillainy: The mythological Anantashesha is simply Vishnu's bed. Here, it actively eats people and destroys their sanity, though it might just be an anomalous animal operating on pure instinct.
* AnimalisticAbomination: It resembles a massive moray eel. However, it is clearly nothing of the kind. It may or may not be a deity, but either way it's a huge serpentine monster that destroys people's minds with its mere presence.
* AmbiguousSituation: [[spoiler:It is unclear if SCP-3000 is the actual deity Anantashesha or merely a powerful being. The doctor who initially thought SCP-3000 was Anantashesha [[OhCrap changed his mind immediately before he was consumed by SCP-3000.]]]]
%%* DoingInTheScientist: If you've ever found the Foundation's amnestics to be so unrealistic that they seemed as anomalous as the [=SCPs=] themselves... guess what?
* EldritchAbomination: SCP-3000 shows heavy shades of this, given its effect on memory, dreams and cognition. It's implied that looking at the eel [[spoiler:makes one realize how insignificant their life is, and that they will return to inert matter and be forgotten in the span of the TimeAbyss, in which the eel will continue to live on forever.]] While it will readily snap up the humans offered to it, it ''does not digest them.'' Scans indicate that its insides are full of intact human bodies. [[spoiler: Given what it does to peoples' minds, it is entirely possible every human it's eaten are trapped in some AndIMustScream phenomenon, still aware but otherwise with their minds destroyed entirely.]]
* HumanSacrifice: [[spoiler: The eel may or may not be a god, but the Foundation is sacrificing humans to it anyway for an extremely important asset in preserving their masquerade.]]
* MindRape: It does this by its sheer presence. People's memories are affected, and they start losing themselves. It gets worse the closer to the eel you get, with the initial dive team eventually having their minds entirely destroyed. Worse, it also can ''give'' you the memories of others. One scientist got a nasty shock when he realized his wife and child were actually the relatives of his deceased coworker, while he was single and childless. He still remembered raising the child and being in love with the woman despite ''never having done so.'' This drove him mad.
* NecessarilyEvil: [[spoiler:Feeding SCP-3000 humans and harvesting the resulting Y-909 is considered this by the Ethics Committee and O5 Council. They are working to minimize human interaction with SCP-3000, but still designate it as a Thaumiel-class entity given the use of Y-909 in amnestics and feed it humans periodically.]]
* NobodyPoops: Zig-zagged. A sudden horror comes from the fact that it's stuffed with undigested, decaying prey, [[spoiler: but the waste SCP-3000 produces from seemingly breaking down sapience/the soul/some other supernatural facet of the mind (designated Y-909) is necessary for use in amnestics. This is why the Foundation needs to feed it D-class.]]
* SanitySlippage: A side-effect, given the eel's powerful MindRape abilities, is that any people in its vicinity will slowly begin to lose touch with reality. It is designated a major cognitohazard.
* SlipperyAsAnEel: A ''gigantic'' moray eel estimated between 600 and 900 kilometers long, living off of the Ganges delta.
* ToServeMan: [[spoiler: SCP-3000 only eats humans. The Foundation feeds it D-class personnel to harvest Y-909.]]
* {{Unobtanium}}: The Y-909 compound SCP-3000 produces, which so far has no artificial equal. [[spoiler: It is critical to modern amnestics and can only be produced if SCP-3000 is fed humans.]]

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3125 SCP-3125]] - The Escapee
* AlienGeometries: It takes the "form" of an immense, Θ'-dimensional fractal topology, with Θ' being SCP-033, the "missing" integer.
* TheAssimilator: Any human who comes into contact with it has their mind destroyed and replaced with 3125's core ideas, which they become wholly devoted to serving and spreading.
* BigBad: It is the main antagonist of the Antimemetics Division Hub tales and the biggest threat the Division has to deal with.
* EldritchAbomination: It is a massive, extradimensional meme complex that intersects the entire universe except for its "containment chamber" (actually an area of exclusion). It also hails from a realm where ideas are far more aggressive than those humans are capable of having, making it ''incredibly'' dangerous.
* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: What the results of its arrival will be, since "humanity" as we know it will cease to be as meaningful as a concept. [[spoiler: The Foundation has no way to prevent this from happening]].
* GiantSpider: While not one itself, 3125 is associated with huge antimemetic spiders that seem to be parts of its greater whole.
* GreaterScopeVillain: According to the tales in the Antimemetics Division Hub (specifically [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/case-colourless-green CASE COLOURLESS GREEN]], SCP-3125 is responsible for Fifthist Church, as well as a large number of other memetic and interdimensional anomalies.
* HumanoidAbomination: What those possessed by it become. They don't actually look any different, but [[MindScrew they cannot be recognized as humans]].
** In the Antimemetics Division tales, it also has an apparent "avatar" that looks like a man in his early twenties.
* MeaningfulName: There's a popular theory that SCP-3125 is the central deity of the Fifth Church. If true, then its SCP number (3125 = 5[[superscript:5]]) is very significant.
* RetGone: Anyone who perceives 3125's true shape is instantly obliterated in this fashion by its defense mechanism, along with "mental bystanders" connected to ideas held by the victim (usually colleagues and family).
* YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm: Once you do, you and every "mental bystander" of yours is gone.

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3143 SCP-3143]] - Murphy Law in… The Foundation Always Rings Twice!
* AffectionateParody: Of 1930s-1950s film noir gumshoes.
* AmbiguouslyGay: Law's original author, [=TheGreatHippo=], has stated that they see Law as being homosexual. However, in the actual articles and Tales featuring Law, he's portrayed as being hyper-focused on solving the current case to the point of [[NotDistractedByTheSexy being completely dismissive of any]] {{Fanservice}} on offer (regardless of what audience it is intended for), to the point where Law comes across as more {{asexual}} than anything else.
* AuthorAvatar: SCP-3143 ("Murphy Law") is really just a self-insert for his author, Murphy Lawden (designated SCP-3143-A). [[spoiler:Except this is just a lie cooked up by the Foundation to deconstruct and contain SCP-3143. Murphy Law doesn't really have an author, as far as anyone can tell.]]
* BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame: When Dr. Thaum contains SCP-3143 by deconstructing him, Murphy Law escapes by deconstructing Dr. Thaum--and the baseline reality Foundation to boot.
* CatchPhrase: "I'm Murphy Law. I'm who you call when whatever can go wrong... did."
* EpiphanicPrison: All it takes for Murphy to break out of containment is to question the Foundation's narrative. Then they can't stop him from just walking out.
* {{Expy}}: [[invoked]] As lampshaded per WordOfGod, Murphy Law is essentially what would happen if [[ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes Tracer Bullet]] ever became a sapient RealityWarper.
* FilmNoir: His aesthetic draws from this, but it's downplayed as he's more on the lighter "hardbitten AntiHero with a good-hearted streak" (think Literature/PhilipMarlowe and his ilk) rather than the darker "doomed VillainProtagonist with a weak will" side of things.
* GutturalGrowler: Murphy Law.
-->His voice is a husky snarl; as if he's got a throat stuffed full of sand-paper and rusty nails.
%%* HandCannon: Murphy Law's .44 Magnum.
%%* HardboiledDetective: Murphy Law, of course.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Repeatedly lampshaded, to the point where the Foundation's Pataphysics Department points out how he's ultimately too much of a "white knight" despite his cynical bluster to be properly compared to other FilmNoir protagonists.
* PaintingTheMedium: Both of the skips he's featured in are written in the style of movie scripts to reflect him as an AffectionateParody of FilmNoir films from UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfHollywood.
* PsychopathicManchild: As his author has noted, Murphy Law is basically a sentient anomaly with the mentality of a little kid who warps reality to play out the role of a heroic PrivateDetective.
* PunnyName: Murphy Law (based on [[FinaglesLaw "Murphy's law"]]). [[LampshadeHanging Dr. Thaum even calls him out]] for having a name "based on an absurdly contrived pun."
%%* NiceHat: Murphy Law's "trademark trilby hat".
* NoirEpisode: Murphy Law warps everything around him into a FilmNoir narrative.
* RealityWarper: SCP-3143 (aka Murphy Law) blurs the line between this and AuthorPowers. He has the ability to merge multiple layers of fiction and reality into a single narrative, which he then warps into a hardboiled crime story, with himself as the protagonist. When he leaves records of his activities, they always take the form of a FilmNoir screenplay. It seems he can override SCP-3043's powers this way, though he needs to follow the "rules" of his own powers/genre to do so.
* StevenUlyssesPerhero: "Murphy Law" is the AuthorAvatar of one ''Murphy Lawden''. [[spoiler:Except Murphy Lawden doesn't really exist. That's just a story cooked up by the Foundation.]]

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3774 SCP-3774]] - My Heart [=DEETs=] Faster For You
A list of Leslie's appearances can be found [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/system:page-tags/tag/leslie here]].
* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Leslie dies, and due to their defects, all other SCP-3774 specimens are exterminated. However, she implanted offspring in Merle before dying, and the Foundation [[PetTheDog not only let Merle keep his memories of her (only erasing the part where she's a mosquito and that they were only dating for a month) but also let the children grow up in a normal neighborhood]].]]
* {{Cyborg}}: SCP-3774 are (predominantly female) mosquitoes outfitted with bio-mechanical augmentations.
* HalfHumanHybrid: [[spoiler:Subverted; despite their DNA being 50% mosquito in origin, the offspring left behind by SCP-3774-2432/Leslie are biologically completely human.]]
* InterspeciesRomance: Installment of the ability to imitate human voices led to SCP-3774 specimens becoming infatuated with any individual they bite. The bulk of the article is thus taken up by a romance between an ordinary human man and a cyborg mosquito.
* MayflyDecemberRomance: Ultimately, SCP-3774 is still constrained by the average mosquito's lifespan, meaning that Leslie and Merle's romance only lasts for a month before ending in Leslie's death.
* MisterSeahorse: [[spoiler:As demonstrated by the dying Leslie, SCP-3774 instances ''can'' produce viable offspring with humans by implanting them into the human's body, where they begin to gestate.]]
* OneGenderRace: Invoked; the Foundation specifically made them produce offspring that are 90% female due to their blood-sucking capacity and longer lifespan.
* SomeoneToRememberHimBy: [[spoiler:Leslie lives just long enough to implant her offspring in Merle.]]
* SurveillanceDrone: Mosquitoes outfitted for surveillance by the Foundation.
* YouAreNumberSix: 3774-2432 notes that she's only been known as "2432" all her life. Her mate thus gives her the name "Leslie" because she apparently sounds like the actress Leslie Caron.

!![[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3885 SCP-3885]] The High-Octane Full-Throttle Adventures of the Exploding Zombie Gearheads
* AchievementsInIgnorance: They manage to set a rock on fire. They consider this a success.
* CoolCar: They ''try'' to build these, but they're lucky if they just get a pile of useless parts.
* DarkIsNotEvil: They're known to make threats to get more car parts, but they've never actually hurt anybody, and they're fine with the Foundation sealing them up behind a concrete barrier as long as the Foundation keeps providing them with parts.
* TheDitz: The spend all of their time building or altering vehicles, which almost always fail because they don't know anything about mechanical engineering. A conversation between two shows that they don't know much about anything else, either.
* {{Expy}}: They're based off of the typical villains from ''Mad Max'', though they're more interested in building cars that the RapePillageAndBurn.
