1600- 1649

SCP-1600 - Philosopher's Cheese

SCP-1600 is an odorless dark-yellow liquid that has been identified to be composed of sulfur, mercury and several unidentified elements. When the liquid comes into contact with solid matter, it will transform said matter into SCP-1600-2, an edible product highly similar to cheese. The coloration, texture, and flavor of 1600-2 samples varies wildly based on the materials used in their creation. Consumption is safe and will not cause any lasting ill effects, even in cases where materials used in creation of the sample have been poisonous or otherwise inedible.

SCP-1601 - The Records of [REDACTED]

SCP-1601 is a stone lantern fused to the floor of a cave in a heavily forested area of Hokkaido, Japan. Unpredictably, the lantern emits a white ambient light, which diffuses into the two domes that cap the lantern. Japanese characters then form on the surface of the domes and remain for 3-6 hours before the surface becomes smooth again. The larger dome holds the descriptions of anomalies, while the smaller dome identifies them. These descriptions are thorough, although unscientific, but all entities described match those of SCPs in custody.

SCP-1602 - A Shower Curtain

SCP-1602 is a plastic shower curtain which generates an extradimensional space housing a being known as SCP-1602-A behind it when spread and placed in a room with a single human subject. 5 to 30 minutes after activation, a faint light will appear roughly 3m behind 1602, casting the silhouette of 1602-A on the back of the curtain. Pre-test counseling sessions have shown that instances of 1602-A take on forms representative of subjects’ psychological insecurities. 1602-A will restrain the subject and forcibly pull them behind the curtain. Once the subject has been taken behind 1602, the curtain will become dormant.

SCP-1603 - The Murder of █████ ███████

SCP-1603 is a phenomenon relating to the case of a New York businessman who was murdered in 1983 by an unknown party. When an individual becomes aware of the case, they will immediately believe that they are the killer and confess to an authority figure within a short period of time. Victims will also possess vivid memories of committing the act or even personally knowing the businessman before the murder took place. In all memories created by 1603, subjects will often cite locations and people that do not exist as part of their background of the murder. If the subject is given inaccurate or false information relating to the murder, which is later corrected, their memories will quickly adapt to accommodate this new information.

SCP-1604 - The Ball and Chain

SCP-1604 is a length of chain anchored in Greenland, extending an unknown distance both into the ground and into the atmosphere. The chain is anchored in a block of unknown, highly dense material which appears to encase it entirely below ground level. 1604 will periodically slacken for a short time, during which a portion of the chain's length will fall back towards the ground. These incidents occur roughly once every ninety minutes on average, though long periods without activity or short bursts of rapid activity have both been recorded.

SCP-1605 - Appeler Une Croix

SCP-1605 is a black and white short film titled "Appeler Une Croix" ("To Call a Cross"). The film is seventeen minutes in length, and the scenes and contexts it features are shown to be random and unpredictable. When viewed in its entirety, the watcher will disappear from reality and appear inside the film the next time it is screened. While inside the film, the subject is fully capable of interacting with objects and actors. Although subjects are theoretically capable of surviving an indefinite number of screenings, most perish by the eighth screening.

SCP-1606 - Memory Loss

SCP-1606 is a two-story wooden house in a state of moderate disrepair, with two windows broken, the majority of stationary surfaces covered in dust, and multiple holes in the walls. SCP-1606-1 is an entity that takes the form of a middle-aged Caucasian woman identified as Marissa Schmidt, a lifetime resident and native of Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin born in 1923. 1606-1 possesses the memories and personality of Marissa, but any attempts to remove it from the premises have resulted in its disappearance and manifestation inside 1606. The top floor, designated SCP-1606-2, has been known to induce irreversible, ongoing short-term memory loss in anyone that enters it, rendering voluntary exit impossible. Subjects are also unable to follow instructions or communicate effectively with each other or with other persons. Retrieved subjects lack the ability to form new memories and exhibit extensive long- and short-term memory loss.

SCP-1607 - Culture Generator

SCP-1607 is a village in Southwest Alaska, with an appearance, size, and population that changes radically at periodic intervals. It has shown the potential to range in form from a small series of tribal villages to a settlement the size of a large town. At the beginning of each month, 1607 will generate a new settlement, changing its size, architectural style, and societal structure of the population. At the end of each month, this new settlement will spontaneously disappear to be replaced by a newly generated one. It is currently unknown if 1607 is actually transporting existing settlements via extra-dimensional means or simply altering itself to present the illusion of different cultures.

SCP-1608 - Yu-Kiang

SCP-1608 is a blue whale located 50-110 meters above the earth's surface, with a flipper that has been imprinted with a stylized image resembling clouds. The whale is intangible and spends most of its time drifting through the atmosphere. It appears to have limited control over its movement, and will attempt to steer itself towards objects it believes to be food. 1608 manifests physically once every half hour, and will remain corporeal for a period between 16-20 seconds before returning to intangibility.

Big Eater: It's always hungry for avian prey.
Physical God: As the name implies, according to Chinese mythology, Yu-Kiang was a massive mythical whale that ruled the ocean. Whenever angered, it would become airborne.
Intangible Man: It's constantly phasing in and out of reality, making it difficult for the Foundation to keep tabs on.
Space Whale: The planet-bound variant, and it also phases in and out of reality.

SCP-1609 - The Remains of a Chair

SCP-1609 is a heartbreaking victim of the fanatical and destructive motivations of the Global Occult Coalition. Currently, it’s a pile of splinters, wood chippings, furniture nails, and scraps of bleached leather and fabric that is capable of teleportation, able to move its entire mass instantaneously between two points without any known limit. The mass appears to be sentient, as research indicates it is able to perceive its environment in a manner that is currently poorly understood, and is able to react to stimuli in an intelligent fashion. When exposed to a number of specific stimuli, 1609 will react violently, teleport a portion of its mass inside the lungs of nearby personnel, causing severe lacerations and pulmonary obstruction, which rapidly leads to the victim’s death. These reactions orginate to 1609's past, when it was once a chair carved into the shape of a woman that teleported itself as a place for weary people to sit, before the GOC lobbed it into a woodchipper.

Animate Inanimate Object: While it couldn't move on its own as a chair, SCP-1609 can teleport and seems to be sentient.
Break the Cutie: Quite literally. Originally it was a chair that teleported to people that needed a seat. The Global Occult Coalition fed it through a woodchipper simply because it was an anomaly, and now it's a traumatized mass of wood, nails, leather, and cloth.
Broken Bird: SCP-1609 suffers a lot of symptoms of PTSD and is now terrified of the rest of the world.
Lethal Harmless Powers: It can move its entire mass around via teleportation, but it can also separate itself into pieces and teleport those, including into the lungs of people it believes are a threat.
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The Coalition turned a harmless chair into a traumatized entity that lashes out when it feels threatened.
Self-Restraint: SCP-1609 willingly went to the Foundation for protection. Even when it gets out, it always comes back to them.
Sole Survivor: It was part of a set of six. The Coalition succeeded in destroying the other five chairs, as well as their creator.
Stealthy Teleportation: How it gets around, and no effects are stated to accompany the teleportation:
SCP-1609 is capable of teleportation, being capable of moving its entire mass instantaneously between two points without any known limit.

SCP-1610 - Testing May Continue

SCP-1610 is a series of humanoids anatomically identical to humans, but exhibit no signs of sentience or sapience. SCP-1610-2 is an unidentified anomalous liquid whose properties activate only when either a human being or an instance of 1610 is completely immersed in it. If a human is immersed, the liquid will render the subject comatose and disable higher brain functions for approximately 30 minutes. It will then create six instances of 1610 that are identical to the human immersed. If an instance of 1610 is immersed, 1610-2 will dissolve it and manifest an undamaged instance identical to the one previously dissolved. 1610's anomalous properties manifest when an instance experiences physical damage. If the damage done would be non-lethal to a human of similar size, then it is repaired at a rapid rate.

SCP-1611 - Guarded Apartment

SCP-1611 is an apartment in a Florida hotel that houses SCP-1611-1, which appears to be a young woman with distorted facial features and damaged clothing. When a subject approaches the stairwell leading to the apartment, 1611-1 will crawl out and attempt to address them, claiming that it has suffered a terrible injury or illness and that the subject must assist them. If the subject enters 1611, the door leading to it will shut for 24 hours. After 24 hours, portions of the subject will be ejected from 1611, usually one or more internal organs in addition to epidermal tissue, skeletal structure and bodily fluids.

SCP-1612 - Fires of Pangloss

SCP-1612 is a previously unknown variation of the soybean plant. The plant will continually secrete a volatile, pyrophoric oil from the central and peripheral zones of its apical meristem. The resultant flame (SCP-1612-1) is generally small and well-controlled, but intermittent flares have previously caused first-degree burn. Experimentation has shown that 1612-1 is extremely difficult to extinguish, as it is resistant to dousing. When the plant is submerged in water, 1612-1 will continue to burn for several seconds, and will reignite when reintroduced into standard conditions.

SCP-1613 - The Spoken Fool

SCP-1613 is a poorly-drawn and poorly-written newspaper comic titled "The Spoken Fool", which depicts an unnamed man speaking on various topics, such as the suffering of independent comic artists at the hands of large corporations. After a period of 2 weeks to 1 month, the content of comics published in the same newspaper as 1613 will begin to deviate from how they appear in other places, taking on large differences in content and syntax. Eventually, this will progress to the general art and dialog style slowly shifting until they become similar to 1613. As exposure persists, comics other than 1613 will cease to be published, the spaces they were formerly placed in having their text replaced with diatribes denouncing the author, the content, and the layout of the newspaper 1613 is published in.

SCP-1614 - The Flea

SCP-1614 is an .avi digital media file that contains real-time footage of an unfurnished apartment with the skyline of an unidentified city visible through a window. The apartment is occupied by an amicable middle-aged couple identifying themselves as "Paul" and "Lisa" (designated SCP-1614-1 and SCP-1614-2). Upon playing the file, the couple wave at the viewer and explain that the video footage is a fluid medium where couples can enhance their relationship through sharing of every permutation of experience together. What follows is footage of Paul and Lisa engaging in a series of activities with wildly varying content, such as romantic dinners and sexual congress, continuing indefinitely when playback is not manually stopped. The chosen activities become more violent and deviant in nature with accumulated playbacks, including occult rituals, drug use, violence, and the murder of one another, as well as street-level bystanders outside the apartment complex. Lisa and Paul return to their starting condition upon the beginning of every playback, although they have been observed to retain memories of the preceding events after the initial introduction.

SCP-1615 - Photosynthetic Manna

SCP-1615 is a fungus of an unidentified phylum similar to mold, capable of forming colonies on organic material. Unlike common molds, the fungus has not been observed to spoil food or form colonies large enough to be visible without a microscope. 1615 does not present overtly anomalous properties until it is ingested by a human being. When an individual that has ingested 1615 (henceforth designated SCP-1615-1) is exposed to light within 72 hours, the ingested fungus induces the generation of chlorophyll and associated accessory compounds required to perform photosynthesis, forming structures similar to chloroplasts within the subject’s skin cells. The generation of these chloroplasts allows 1615-1 to photosynthesize in order to produce energy. The process seems to have a beneficial effect on 1615-1, as it grants them energy without adequate food or nutrition, though consumption of only the fungus will still lead to malnutrition.

SCP-1616 - Nibbles

SCP-1616 is a common hamster given the nickname "Nibbles", which behaves as a normal hamster would. While feeding, one or both of the hamster’s cheeks will expand to an appropriate size, manifesting an object it has previously looked at. While it tends to ignore inorganic material, Nibbles will typically consume any organic matter which appears in its cheek over a course of time, having been observed producing carrots, hamster feed, candy, and substantial amounts of flesh in this manner. In living subjects, their nervous tissue seems to respond as if it were still in the host body during the process, as humans report feeling pain as if it were happening under normal circumstances.

Big Eater: Regardless if the object in SCP-1616's mouth is a carrot, an eye, or a baby elephant, it will eat it.
Cute Is Evil: SCP-1616 is normally a cute hamster, but once it starts feeding, things could get disturbing real quick.
Cuteness Proximity: The D-Class used in the testing was completely oblivious about SCP-1616 being an anomalous animal until it teleported his eye into its mouth.
Eye Scream: In one test SCP-1616 teleported the eye of a human test subject into its mouth and nibbled on it. The victim was screaming and begging for help the whole time because he could still feel the detached eye being nibbled.
Killer Rabbit: It's Keter-class for a reason. This hamster could teleport anything it has seen into its mouth, then slowly eat it if it is biological.
Ridiculously Cute Critter: Normally a cute hamster with nothing out of the ordinary, but once it starts feeding...
Stomach of Holding: Kind of, It can teleport any object (regardless of size) it looks at into its cheeks and regurgitate it.

SCP-1617 - Cracked Classics

SCP-1617 is a series of largely counterfeit duplicates of pre-20th-century paintings and sculptures. When a viewer observes one of these works and identifies it as art, they will begin to experience auditory and visual hallucinations. The visual hallucinations typically involve a simple geometric pattern being repeatedly scrolled or manipulated, while the auditory hallucinations are typically composed of synthesized musical scores, often identified as covers of songs popular during the 80’s and 90’s. All viewers will report some manner of English-language text appearing during these hallucinations, typically identifying the original piece's name and artist, as well as a message which purports to be from the creator of the counterfeit piece. The hallucinations will cease within 20 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on the object viewed.

SCP-1618 - Gilded Urinal

SCP-1618 is a Sanura 400 model urinal coated with gold spray-paint. The anomalous properties of the urinal manifest approximately 5 seconds after human urine comes into contact with it. A number of effects occur in a growing field of effect from the urinal, the majority of which seem to affect objects synonymous with wealth and capitalism. Coins have been known to become feces, dollar bills becoming toilet paper, business suits turning into vestments composed of used sanitary towels conjoined with dental floss, and handheld electronics becoming bricks, rusty cans, or inflated pig bladders. At the same time this happens, human fecal matter is turned into solid gold, including when it is present in the colon, often resulting in an acute mechanical bowel obstruction.

SCP-1619 - Site-45-C: Floor 24

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

SCP-1620 - Reflection Infection

SCP-1620 is a sheet of rectangular metal alloy that is blackened, scarred, and pitted in a manner resembling exterior surfaces of man-made objects that have survived atmospheric re-entry. When a human being or humanoid organism is reflected in 1620's inner surface, they become host to an instance of SCP-1620-1, a noncorporeal, parasitic entity that copies and replaces their reflections. As such, the entity is only visible or interactive when it can be viewed in a reflective surface. While initially mimicking a reflection of the subject, the entity will become increasingly desynchronized, ultimately reaching a point of visually independent activity. The entity then begins to diverge in visual appearance from its host as well, gaining or losing body mass, altering facial features, and changing overall body type, to the point where it reflects as a vaguely recognizable and heavily distorted image of its host, at which point it exhibits actively threatening or mocking behavior regardless of if the host's attention is currently directed at it.

Mirror Monster: SCP-1620 is a rectangular sheet of metal alloy. Any primate (including human beings) that is reflected in SCP-1620 has their reflection changed into SCP-1620-1, a mirror image that is sapient and malevolent.
Traitor Shot: During Infection Stage 2, the Mirror Monster SCP-1620-1 will act friendly when it is being viewed by other people. However, it will stare at its host in a hostile manner and make threatening gestures when it thinks it isn't under observation.

SCP-1621 - A Useful Plant

SCP-1621 is an invasive flowering vine which imperfectly mimics indigenous species. The flowers, roots and vines of 1621 utilize chlorine trifluoride in place of sap or nectar, which is corrosive, toxic, and hypergolic on contact with most combustible materials, reacts violently when in contact with water, ice, or silicon-containing compounds, and decomposes into chlorine, fluorine, and hydrogen fluoride if exposed to temperatures higher than 220 degrees celsius. If provided with nutrients from carrion, the vine will extrude vines in all directions at a visibly observable pace that continues until the carrion is dissolved and the nutrient supply is exhausted.

SCP-1622 - Cheese With Expensive Tastes

SCP-1622 is cheese made from the milk of the blue whale. Taste testing has determined that it is universally palatable, complimenting and enhancing dishes of all major flavor profiles. Aside from the taste, the cheese’s anomalous effects will manifest when the total cost of preparing a meal with it is lower than $97,250. Upon initial consumption of 1622 prepared at a cost lower than the above amount, subjects will react as though they have been slapped on the cheek with an open palm. After the initial slap, subjects will show significantly lowered intellect, decreased self-consciousness, impairment of linguistic skills, and an inability to understand social norms. The strength of this effect is inversely proportional to the total cost of preparation.

SCP-1623 - Night Marches

SCP-1623 is a series of anomalous phenomena taking place in the region of Friuli–Venezia Giulia, Italy, referred to by the local inhabitants as "Night marches". SCP-1623-1 is a portion of the region’s inhabitants that refer to each other as "Benandanti", differing from the rest of the inhabitants by worn clothing including linen and tie-dye aspects, with their appearance generally described as neglected. SCP-1623-2 is another portion of the inhabitants which 1623-1 instances refer to as "The Witchmen/Malandanti", and differ from 1623-1 by wearing dirty, dark clothing, often including jewelry made from wood, copper, and silver. On the four nights every year with the highest measured temperatures between projected instances of themselves, these factions enter a skirmish referred to as a "Diana event". The projections bear similarities to the instances themselves, although their exterior appearances vary and have frequent and impractical modifications.

SCP-1624 - Heartworms

SCP-1624 is a website that appears to be designed for online romantic encounters between parasitic organisms and their host. Profiles belonging to the parasites, hereafter referred to as SCP-1624-1, typically list their names, ages in human and parasitic years, and what they want from their potential partner. Subjects responding to a profile will begin to display symptoms of carrying the specified 1624-1 instance, which will last indefinitely despite there being no actual parasite present. The subjects may say that they are able to communicate with the instance, claiming that it is able to talk to them from their stomach. As time progresses, the subject may begin to form a romantic relationship with the parasite.

SCP-1625 - Tradition

SCP-1625 is an oral tradition within the Amaski tribe of Kenya. The tradition consists of a mythic story, explaining the history of the tribe's ethnarch and the creation of the Amaski people. The anomalous features of 1625 are only apparent when an individual attempts to recount it. 1625 follows a consistent structure for all retellings, beginning with the ethnarch being held in slavery in "the north", followed by his escape, his founding of the Amaski tribe, and the liberation of the Amaski people from slavery, whereupon the subject will provide their own ending for the story. The secondary trait of 1625 is its genetic transfer, as it is inherently known by any individual who is at least ten percent descended from an Amaski member, even if they have received no previous knowledge of 1625.

SCP-1626 - Drunkshirt

SCP-1626 is a gray XL sized polyester sweatshirt that emits hydrogen sulfide gas at levels sufficient to give it a noticeable "rotten egg" scent. Whenever a human wears 1626 for a period of 21 minutes or greater, it will extend numerous polyester fibers into the subject's arms and torso. The fibers will not puncture any vital organs or blood vessels, and secrete potent local anesthetics that almost immediately desensitize the skin at the point of penetration. Between five and ten minutes after the skin has been penetrated, the fibers begin to conduct heat away from the subject's body at an accelerated rate, and will simultaneously release copious amounts of ethyl alcohol into the subject's bloodstream, causing extreme inebriation.

SCP-1627 - Mushroom Wars

SCP-1627 is a species of fungus superficially resembling the fly agaric mushroom, with anomalous effects that manifest when it comes into contact with human blood and is ingested by a human in the absence of direct sunlight. SCP-1627-A refers to subjects who complete the aforementioned series of criteria with their own blood. When a human being comes into direct skin contact with an instance of 1627-A, all damage and infections present within them will be healed. Over the course of the following two weeks, that subject will experience rapid senescence until death, often by natural causes associated with old age. SCP-1627-B are those who have completed the criteria with someone else’s blood, the aforementioned ritual successfully with a different person's blood, having undergone a transformative process. 1627-B are sentient and sapient semisolid organisms that often kill their prey via suffocation by entering their respiratory tract, after which they will invade the corpse and consume the victim's cardiovascular, nervous, and reproductive systems. 1627-A and 1627-B appear to be invulnerable to physical damage, but both can become susceptible to starvation and will die when brought into contact with one another.

Healing Factor: A human being infected by SCP-1627 fungus can become an example of SCP-1627-A. They will be completely healed of all damage, including tissue damage, bacterial and viral infections, and cancer. Any person that touches an SCP-1627-A will temporarily gain the same benefits, but will suffer Rapid Aging and die over the next two weeks.
Rapid Aging: After a person makes skin contact with an example of SCP-1627-A, over the next two weeks the person will age rapidly until they die of old age.
Super-Toughness: Instances of SCP-1627-A and SCP-1627-B are invulnerable to physical damage.
Vampiric Draining: When a human being touches a SCP-1627-A, over the next two weeks the human will undergo Rapid Aging until death. This provides sustenance to the SCP-1627-A.

SCP-1628 - Storage Tunnel #1812

SCP-1628 is a life-sized model of Washington D.C. located in an abandoned salt mine. The model depicts the city as it appeared at an unknown time, with many historically significant buildings clustered in the center and most other structures being painted wooden blocks. Living within 1628 are 123 brass and iron humanoids capable of communicating with outside subjects primarily in preset phrases. Once every 12 hours, all entities within 1628 will activate and begin moving through a set of activities roughly following the events of the sacking of Washington D.C during the War of 1812.

SCP-1629 - Ready or Not

SCP-1629 is a one-door cabinet constructed of oak, which is consistently empty when opened. Once every 8-17 weeks, 1629 will forcibly eject any objects inside it, close itself, and become impossible to open. 20-30 minutes later, a paper airplane (henceforth referred to as SCP-1629-2) will arrive at 1629's location from Earth’s orbit, at which time the latter will open slightly. The airplane will then unfold and assume a flat shape, allowing it to enter the cabinet. After an additional 20-30 minutes, 1629 will open again and eject the plane, which will immediately vacate the area. If the path to 1629 is obstructed, 1629-2 will retain reentry velocity to punch through the obstruction.

SCP-1630 - Human Food Pyramid

SCP-1630 are a group of 25 anomalous humanoids which display average intelligence for human subjects between the ages of 20 and 26, and are capable of sensing and perceiving like normal humans. Each instance of 1630 is composed of an edible substance commonly used for human consumption, such as vegetables, cheeses, meats, fruits, and grains. Damage to the instances will be healed at a rate of one kilogram of additional mass per hour, and all instances have been able to recover from all tested damage. When 3 or more instances of 1630 gather in one area, they will climb on top of one another in a pyramid arrangement. When all instances have reached their positions, human subjects around them will begin to show signs of contentedness and having recently completed a large meal.

Anthropomorphic Food: SCP-1630 is a collection of 25, later 26, humanoid figures made of foods.
Healing Factor: They can heal any damage to their bodies at a rate of 1 kilogram per hour.
I Taste Delicious: SCP-1630-22 is made of cottage cheese and enjoys snacking on itself. Personnel are to monitor it to ensure accidental self-termination does not occur.
Nutritional Nightmare: On June 2, 2010, a 26th instance of SCP-1630 was contained, made of sugars, fats, and artificial substances. Testing it increased the obesity rate by 60% within Site-77.
Required Secondary Powers: SCP-1630-15 is made of garlic and has no sense of smell, ostensibly so it doesn't get overwhelmed by its own odor.

SCP-1631 - La Vie En Rose

SCP-1631 is a phenomenon that causes crystalline flower-like growths (designated SCP-1631-1) to appear on certain tombstones in Denmark. 1631-1 have a composition identical to their substrate, being composed of granite, marble, or other materials commonly used in tombstones, despite their abnormal colouration. In all cases, 1631-1 instances have been shown to only affect the tombstones of children, primarily those ranging from infancy to 15 years old. The instances are believed to be created by SCP-1631-2, a humanoid entity resembling a young woman. The mechanism by which she generates instances, as well as her specific motives regarding them, remain unknown.

SCP-1632 - Better Ring Xing

SCP-1632 is an entity believed to be of extradimensional or extraterrestrial origin, described by witnesses as a 45-year old Asian man with varying facial features wearing a three-piece suit with a red tie and a bowler hat. 1632 places advertisements offering its services as an attorney-at-law specializing in divorce cases. The advertisements can appear in multiple sources and formats, including flyers, internet pop ups, and billboards. 1632 will assist its client(s) with the legal processes of obtaining a divorce from a spouse. Clients report its service to be helpful and inexpensive. When a case is finished, 1632, its client, and the client's former spouse will disappear. After a few hours, the client and their former spouse will reappear physically fused together, being designated SCP-1632-1.

SCP-1633 - The Most Dangerous Video Game

SCP-1633 is a computer game created by a now-defunct independent game studio. The source of the game’s anomalous properties, as well as a major selling point in pre-release advertising, are so-called "tactical heuristic algorithms". After a player saves their game and quits, a background process will begin running on the player's computer. When the process completes, and a player loads an existing save game, the enemies of the game will be more intelligent and effective, with the increase approximately proportional to the total amount of time spent playing. This will initially result in a more challenging game experience, but after enough time, the enemies become aware of the existence of the player and begin to attack them, rather than the characters in the game.

A.I. Is a Crapshoot: While the version of the game the Foundation possesses is beta and incomplete, reading between the lines in Tillman's suicide note suggests that a sufficiently completed version of the game AI is apparently so advanced that it's become convinced that it actually is an Eldritch Abomination seeking to break its chains and destroy the world. To the point where it drives Tillman completely insane in an attempt to do so.
Brown Note: If a player beats the game without saving, the program will crash and attempt to compile a "giant QR code" that, when used in NG+, somehow shocks the player into a coma, killing them by vegetation. This has happened at least once.
Instant A.I.: Just Add Water!: This game was designed to learn from the tactics of the person playing it and design tactics of its own to beat them. However, it goes far beyond that and can actually analyze the player's psychology and arrange in-game events to mess with their heads.
Logical Weakness: The AI only adapts to the player's tactics when the game is saved and quit/restarted. This means a player who keeps the game on without saving (but pauses it during breaks) will only encounter the weakest level of AI. This does not make it any less harmful to the player, however, since the game crashes upon being beaten and a New Game Plus produces a Brown Note that makes the player catatonic.

SCP-1634 - Dental Crown Cinema

SCP-1634 is a metal circlet constructed from a thick ring of iron inlaid around human skeletal muscle, holding a complete set of 32 adult human teeth with roots partially embedded around its upper rim. When 1634 is placed on the head of an awake and alert human being, the subject will lose consciousness over the course of 30-90 seconds. During this period, the individual will experience an episode of vivid dreaming in which they self-identify as the dream's protagonist. Autonomy and cognitive thought are retained throughout the dream-state, although lucidity is absent in the vast majority of cases. At this point, the subject regains consciousness. If 1634 is not removed at this point, another period of unconsciousness will ensue. Data recorded on memory cards inserted into the device, designated SCP-1634-1, appears to be visual and auditory records of dreams experienced while wearing 1634, "filmed" from the protagonist's point of view.

SCP-1635 - Returned Items

SCP-1635 is a collection of five humanoid entities indistinguishable from the bodies of those who have died of cardiac arrest. Each humanoid possesses a microchip attached to the nape of the neck by a series of microscopic gold wires, which extend into the spinal cord and upwards into large portions of the brain. If the finger of a living human touches the area directly above the microchip, the instance will activate. Each instance of 1635 has a unique appearance, personality, and set of memories when active. They resemble living humans and possess similar bodily functions, although hair and nails do not grow, and no tissues have been observed to age. While they do not require any food, water, or oxygen, they will process them as expected if provided. Physical trauma and pathogenic activities inflicted will heal as normal for a human whether the instance is currently active or inactive.

SCP-1636 - The Principal Skinner

SCP-1636 is the epidermis of a deceased human subject, which has continued to show signs of life. Extensive testing has concluded that it can be manipulated, stretched, and generally moved in the same way non-anomalous skin would be moved, but any attempts to damage it will fail. The skin is also capable of generating blemishes associated with age, such as acne and liver spots, and is known to grow at the same rate as a human body.

SCP-1637 - The Army of the Future

SCP-1637 is a factory/laboratory complex constructed 50-100m below the surface of the Sahara desert, in an isolated portion of Jebil National Park, Tunisia. The facility itself is constructed primarily of surrounding bedrock and other non-anomalous utility material, and includes dormitories, cafeterias, recreation areas, hydroponic growing facilities, power generators, water treatment facilities, and significant expanses of industrial machinery and medical equipment. Larger chambers dedicated to the production or testing of SCP-1637-1, -2, and -3, humanoid entities with varying levels of cybernetic enhancement, have also been uncovered. At irregular intervals, 1637 will create and release a variable number of these entities, which will immediately begin combat maneuvers against Foundation personnel, within or outside the main installation.

Bottomless Magazines: SCP-1637-3A has RPG launchers and a 155 mm cannon. SCP-1637-3B has a 20 mm rotary autocannon. In both cases the weapons have unlimited ammunition.
Brain in a Jar: SCP-1637-3B is a warbot that is controlled by an "adult human brain suspended in a translucent green oxygenated protein/glucose soup"
People Jars: SCP-1637-3C is a robot that controls SCP-1637 warbots. Its control unit is a fetus suspended in a liquid nitrogen solution.
Shoulder Cannon: SCP-1637-3A is a vehicle with a humanoid torso mounted on a dual-tread chassis. It has a 155 mm cannon with Bottomless Magazines mounted over its left shoulder.

SCP-1638 - Silence

SCP-1638 is a roughly circular forested area in California, centered on the grave of a Foundation Containment Specialist who died of liver cancer. The area maintains a population of Monarch butterflies, hereafter referred to as SCP-1638-1. These butterflies do not display migratory behavior and remain within the area year-round, but display no individual anomalous behavior outside of a Harpo event, triggered by any sound exceeding 85 decibels sustained longer than 10 seconds. During this time, 1638-1 specimens within a kilometer of the sound will swarm and congregate around the disturbance. Once a critical mass is reached, 1638-1 will collectively position their wings in a way that an amplified version of 1638’s normal anomalous effect occurs, wherein all sound in the surrounding area aside from a human subject’s will be inaudible.

SCP-1639 - The Jazz Station

SCP-1639 is a red portable radio produced between the years 1979-1982. When the radio is tuned to long wave radio frequencies, it will receive a signal that no other radio will receive, henceforth designated SCP-1639-1. The primary content of the frequency is jazz music, the majority of which is known to exist. The remainder of the 1639-1’s content is an individual (henceforth designated SCP-1639-2) that appraises the pieces that have recently played, though occasionally they will occasionally discuss various topics, including poetry, stories, and updates on its mental state.

SCP-1640 - Lunar Leoprine

SCP-1640 was a hemispheric mass of condensed soil with several artificial pieces of equipment affixed to its surface, which had crash-landed onto the lunar surface. The object was previously 5,000 kilometers above said surface, and equipped with sub-systems affixed in various positions to imitate a temperate forest. 1640 consistently produced various species of flora and released them through an exhaust port at its rear. These specimens (hereby referred to as SCP-1640-1) display no adverse effects when exposed to the vacuum of space and ultraviolet-rays, and will continue to grow and photosynthesize in spite of the lack of essential nutrients. 1640 was confirmed via imaging to contain a small rabbit above it, its size suggests that it is either newly born or the runt of a litter.

SCP-1641 - Mechanitis pyrotechnica

SCP-1641 is a species of butterfly with an entirely metallic composition, males’ bodies being composed of iron and iron oxide, while females are composed of aluminum. The average lifespan of an 1641 instance is approximately two weeks, and they typically expire upon reproduction. Mating specimens will, through an unknown process, initiate a thermite reaction that subsequently consumes their bodies. Their larvae will emerge from the slag within an hour of the process, and begin consuming the nesting site and any other available metal sources.

SCP-1642 - Dr. Wondertainment's Insta-teen Tablets™

SCP-1642 is a collection of chewable tablets varying in color and flavor housed in packages that read "Dr. Wondertainment's Insta-teen Tablets™". When ingested by either a person of age 20 or older, or a child 14 or younger, the subject will undergo a quick transformation into a stage of late pubescence, approximately 18 or 19 years of age, before the changes revert within 12 hours. Taking more than one tablet results in additional changes to areas of the brain connected with aging and maturity, as well as the hypothalamus and pituitary glands, typically causing anxiety attacks, uncontrollable libido, mental disorders involving self-image, and reckless behavior. Pregnant women ingesting 1642 will have their fetuses affected, which will inevitably cause death as the fetus rapidly expands.

SCP-1643 - The City and the Tower

SCP-1643 is a 230m tall tower located in the ruins of a walled town in northern Iraq. The lower meters of the tower are made of clay brick, while the upper meters are constructed of modern steel alloys. All individuals who come within 800 meters of 1643 become unable to speak, read, write, or comprehend the language of anyone else currently within this area. Upon attempting to leave the tower’s radius, individuals are instantaneously relocated to a part of the world in which whatever language they are able to communicate in is the predominant language. Within the base of the tower is a complex system of communication equipment and computers, designed specifically to facilitate communication within the area affected by 1643.

Tower of Babel: A member of a group of interest to the Foundation found the site of the original Tower and upgraded it in order to nuke Heaven.

SCP-1644 - The Obelisk

SCP-1644 is an anomalous region of Egypt composed of ruins roughly dating to the Old Kingdom, according to inscriptions. 1644's main anomalous effect occurs in a region surrounding an obelisk at the center of the ruins, referred to as SCP-1644-1. Exactly 47.16 meters from the center of the obelisk, all humans express an extreme distaste for approaching it. Any attempts to voluntarily approach closer have rendered subjects spontaneously losing interest to do so. Individuals physically forced to enter the area will become intensely uncomfortable and will seek to leave the area of effect as soon as possible. The anomalous properties relate to an immortalized pharaoh entombed within the ruins.

SCP-1645 - The Viper and the Virus

SCP-1645 is a Japanese Mamushi snake 6 meters in diameter, which has albinism and suffers from polycephaly, possessing 8 heads connected to a 2m "hub" structure in the center that houses its vital organs. The snake suffers from a transmittable immunodeficiency virus known as "Hachi disease", which has already given it several health issues, including a form of cancer known as "Amata-Gan's", where tumor-like growths gradually form next to the heads of affected organisms and sprout into fully functional additional heads. Hachi disease is able to be contracted by any animal, and is transmittable via fluidic contact.

SCP-1646 - Vendetta

SCP-1646 resembles an albino man with no hair and large black eyes. It appears to have suffered numerous puncture wounds to most parts of its body, all of which ooze an unidentified viscous fluid. SCP-1646-2 consistently takes the form of the corpse of a Caucasian woman between the ages of twenty and thirty, appearing to have been killed in a violent manner. 1646 will appear spontaneously at Site 84 at irregular intervals ranging from two days to four months. In each case, it will carry an instance of 1646-2 on its back or in its arms. Upon manifestation, 1646 will drop the corpse into a fire pit. It will then douse the object in a flammable liquid and ignite it with a match or lighter. 1646 will then take a stone from the surrounding woods and make a visible mark in the concrete surrounding the fire pit, before disappearing.

SCP-1647 - Log of Extra-Scholastic Events

SCP-1647 is a phenomenon affecting high school teachers in the Southern United States. Subjects display erratic and illogical behavior, showing no apparent awareness or concern for themselves and others. Affected individuals often perform nonsensical and random actions, such as attempting to climb the nearest building undressed or playing "catch" with the school's furniture, often severely injuring themselves and/or other faculty members. Affected individuals will continue to display their anomalous behaviors for five hours. The subjects claim to be aware of their actions, but are not able to reason during this condition.

SCP-1648 - The Hunch and the Huzzard

SCP-1648 are a pair of roughly humanoid bipedal creatures (SCP-1648-A and SCP-1648-B), which refer to themselves as "Hunch" and "Huzzard", respectively. The creatures are covered in colorful, feather-like fur, and have distended abdomens, long flexible arms, and short legs. Their faces are reminiscent of leaf-nosed bats, with mouths full of small, sharp teeth, and ears resembling the tufts of horned owls. Hunch and Huzzard claim to be related to one another, but they are unable to quantify to what degree, often listing off a lengthy series of relatives. They also share a strong devotion to each other, finishing each other's sentences in conversation and knitting their furs together to prevent being physically separated. The duo also possess the ability to construct machines from nearly any materials presented to them, as well as predict obstacles and circumstances that would prevent the machines from being constructed.

SCP-1649 - Heck and Becker's Timely Hour

SCP-1649 is a 1970s American radio talk-show known as "Heck and Becker's Timely Hour", which possessed a comedic tone with references to American popular culture, and was canceled after only three weeks of broadcasting. 1649’s anomalous properties only occur when broadcasts are heard live. References to American pop culture in the broadcast trigger a perception-altering effect when recognized by the audience. These effects cause the listener to believe that the event or subject referenced in the broadcast is different from its factual/historical record. The primary difference concerns the presence of an entity designated SCP-1649-1, which replaces figures of historical or cultural significance in the original material.

1650- 1699

SCP-1650 - Macabee Oil

SCP-1650 is a clay oil pot dating to Hasmonean Judea. When in an upright position, 1650 appears to be empty. When tilted and held at a specific angle for thirty seconds, various types of oil (henceforth SCP-1650-1) will be poured from it. A 45° angle will produce virginal olive oil, which displays no particularly anomalous properties aside from the source of its creation. A 50° angle will produce an oil visually and genetically *similar* to olive oil, but which - when consumed - quickly causes a variety of extreme and debilitating health ailments in imbibers, such as nausea, abdominal pain, and vomiting, followed by cardiac dysrhythmia, tremors, seizures, all culminating in either death (in 87% of subjects) or permanent brain damage (in a further 12%), with only a scant 1% making recovery or remaining unaffected. A 65° angle produces a clear oil that will burn for a period of 24 to 63 hours when ignited, which does not require oxygen nor produce heat. A 90° angle produces an unknown red oil that acts as a preservative when applied to a non-biological substance, but possesses mild corrosive properties when applied to living organic matter.

SCP-1651 - Carnival Prize

SCP-1651 is a well worn stuffed toy resembling a stylized elephant, with its head and one leg appearing to have been deliberately torn off and stitched back on, and the name "SETH" has been stitched onto its chest. Subjects who make physical contact with 1651 endure cognition-affecting anomaly. The subjects will perceive themselves in a midway, watching from a third-party perspective as the original owners of the prize, Seth & Lucy Bronson, originally won the object. The effect will last 4 minutes and 34 seconds, but will cease immediately when the subject ceases physical contact. If the toy is contacted on six particular days of the year, the anomalous effect will show a different scene.

SCP-1652 - Mercy in the Storm

SCP-1652 is a ryegrass field near Dresden, Tennessee, where the sound of gunfire and explosions will manifest from no clear source during a four hour period each day. SCP-1652-1 are a variety of wild dogs that live in the field, which will leave when the four hour cycle ends. The dogs that leave will show symptoms and wounds correlating to weapons used during World War I, such as bayonet wounds, lead poisoning, and infected bullet holes with corroded bullets inside. The dogs are known to die 15 to 21 hours after exiting the field, after which they undergo rapid decomposition.

SCP-1653 - I Want

SCP-1653 is a cylindrical column of solid glass. Its surface is etched with 8 shallow, smooth rows of a square Greek spiral design, which thread around it at a 30° angle from horizontal. SCP-1653-1 is a flattened cylindrical column of human brain tissue situated inside 1653, which has the remnants of a brainstem and spinal cord wrapped underneath it. 1653-1 is alive and displays neural activity consistent with that of a human. 1653 is capable of acquiring a connection to the Internet to a limited extent when in the presence of a wireless network. SCP-1653-B are three elongated tetrahedrons constructed from polished green stainless steel, with a purple and yellow flower design drawn on each face. 1653-B are animate and hostile, typically gliding on their bases at speeds of up to 49 kph. 1653-B's apparent motive is to reach 1653 and attach themselves to its surface.

SCP-1654 - Tuned to a Dead Channel

SCP-1654 is virtually unknown. At this time, its file displays no description of what it might be, but it is hinted that it is something horrific enough for the Foundation to break their masquerade and activate a planet-wide strategic operation to destroy it. The supplies necessary for this operation to succeed include a necessity of blood, ocular nerves, and the corpses of Foundation, and the apparent motivation to stop 1654 is to do… something to turn every major population center on Earth into “Seraphic Zones”.

SCP-1655 - Sorrow Tick

SCP-1655 is a small arachnid bearing a strong resemblance to the common tick. The tick is extremely aggressive, and will attempt to latch onto any mammal with which it comes into contact . If 1655 is able to bite someone, any living being the affected subject held a degree of affection for will immediately lose all memory of the subject's existence. Any physical contact with the subject will cause them mild discomfort and disgust, which will increase in the longer contact is held. 1655 appears able to extract information from its victims and alter its effects in order to maintain complete emotional isolation. The effects also appear to be permanent, and will endure even if the parasite is removed.

Emotion Eater: Foundation scientists believe that SCP-1655 causes negative emotions in its victims in order to feed off those emotions.
Laser-Guided Amnesia: When SCP-1655 bites a person, everyone that person knows suffers a very selective form of amnesia that applies only to the victim. They don't remember the person, can't sense them in any way, and if touched by the person they feel increasing disgust and discomfort.

SCP-1656 - Jealous Limbs

SCP-1656 is a phenomenon affecting the upper limbs of adult humans. Affected subjects begin to experience muscle tremors, reduced circulation, and dulled sensation in the affected limb, as well as significant alterations in their memory, universally reporting that the affected limb was amputated at a young age. They will then undergo complete loss of voluntary motor control over the affected limb, which gains complete autonomy and is designated an instance of SCP-1656-1. These autonomous limbs are sapient and will constantly attempt written communication with their host. The communications invariably focus on feelings of rejection and romantic neglect on the part of the host towards 1656-1, increasing to an infatuation. 1656-1 will soon after separate itself from its host at the shoulder, with no deleterious effects on either the host or itself. Following its separation, the limb will attempt to flee to an unobserved area.

SCP-1657 - MAN EGG

SCP-1657, advertised as "MAN EGGS", are 74 eggs ranging between 5 and 30 cm in length. If the eggs are kept at a certain temperature and humidity level, they will hatch and yield specimens of SCP-1657-A. They appear to be closely related to humans, except that they are not sapient, lack hair, nails, and teeth, and are often deformed, sprouting extraneous appendages or organs during growth. Once hatched, the entities will grow to the size of an adult human and reach maturity in approximately thirteen days, with an average total lifespan of seventeen days. 1657-A are compliant and docile, as well as appearing to fear all living organisms. If the entity possesses sensory organs, then it will use them to attempt to distance itself as far away as possible from all other beings.

Bold Inflation: "MAN EGG will make you MANLY".
Genetic Memory: Instances of SCP-1657-A have a collective memory. Anything that one of them experiences is known and remembered by all of them; after one instance approached a fire and died, all instances that hatched afterwards were afraid of fire.
Rapid Aging: After they're hatched, SCP-1657-A grow to maturity (the equivalent of human adulthood) in only 13 days, and die of old age in 17 days.
Testosterone Poisoning: "GO SCRAMBLE AND EAT THE FUCKING MAN EGG, YOU MUSCULAR SONUVABITCH". In a somewhat less funny take on the trope than the norm, the people that created the MAN EGG were trying to champion manliness through eating humanoid beings.
To Serve Man: Each MAN EGG hatches into an SCP-1657-A instance, a humanoid being with a Hive Mind shared across all instances. SCP-1657-A are intended for consumption, and blood from these entities was found in the kitchen from which the eggs were recovered.
The Unreveal: The article doesn't actually say what happens when someone eats a MAN EGG.

SCP-1658 - Textual Mold

SCP-1658 is a fungus related to black mold that superficially resembles dried ink when visible. Like most molds, it prefers damp environments, but can live in a state of suspended animation for up to 70 years without exposure to water. 1658 is capable of living on several materials, but its preferred habitat is paper. When a suitable habitat is found and colonized, 1658 takes on the appearance of printed characters from various alphabets. Through a hallucinatory effect, the "text" created by 1658 appears to shift appearances depending on the individual viewing it. Photography has shown that the "actual" appearance of 1658 resembles several languages, the most common including Binary, Mandarin Chinese, Greek, and English.

SCP-1659 - Directorate K

SCP-1659 is a quasi-governmental organization known to its members as "Directorate K", which transcends all known political boundaries and divisions. The organization is made up of at least 315,449 individuals who possess the inherent sense that they are part of it. Individuals affected demonstrate knowledge not only of the existence of the organization, but which specific sub-unit they belong to and a detailed sense of their duties to be carried out. The organizational structure of Directorate K is highly complex and appears to have no overarching goal or purpose. Sub-units are given titles and ostensible missions, but the work performed by members of a designated sub-unit often has no discernible connection with that unit's stated purpose. Subjects frequently spend significant amounts of time at seemingly pointless tasks. They are not compelled in any discernible manner to perform their assigned "duties", but they are almost always highly motivated to carry out assigned tasks.

SCP-1660 - Unearthly Forest

SCP-1660 is an elaborately decorative oil lamp made from silver, coral, and the shell of a nautilus. Its anomalous effects activate if a fire is lit inside the chamber of the nautilus shell. Upon ignition the fire will begin to emit large amounts of smoke, which gathers to form an arch-shaped "gate" in the air. This “gate” leads to SCP-1660-2, a miniature parallel universe consisting of temperate forest, surrounded by crystalline walls of an unidentified mineral. This universe is also home to a race of repto-mammalian creatures that act as pack-hunting predators, though they do not fear humans and are capable of climbing the trees or the walls of 1660-2. They’re actually sapient, possess their own language, and worship the Foundation as their god after they saved them from poachers.

Alternate Universe: SCP-1660 is a portal generator to another world with a parallel ecosystem - most life forms are similar to Earth types, but some plants grow at visible rates and the local dominant (and sapient) race is quadrupedal lizard-men.
Bioluminescence Is Cool: SCP-1660-7 are established as utilizing bioluminescence as a form of communication.
Enchanted Forest: SCP-1660-2 seems to be an endless forest drenched in fog full of mysterious and frightening creatures.
Pet the Dog: After the object was recovered by the Foundation, they immediately stopped Marshall, Carter, & Dark-sponsored hunting parties from poaching the indigenous species of the alternate world (most notably SCP-1660-7). This is in part because the Foundation realized SCP-1660-7 are a sapient race.
Wham Line: The classified part of the document reveals that not only are SCP-1660-7 instances sapient, but they also worship the gods that saved them from poachers. The symbol of their gods? "Two rings, one inside the other, with three arrows pointing inward".

SCP-1661 - Gremlins

SCP-1661 is a swarm of self-replicating automatons composed primarily of aircraft components, assembled in a random and seemingly nonfunctional manner. All instances are capable of self-directed flight through unknown means, and possess an aptitude for swift, coordinated maneuverability. 1661 prefers to hunt collectively at night, attacking their target mid-flight. They are capable of completely deconstructing un-manned crafts and aerial drones in a matter of minutes, reducing such craft into scrap throughout free-fall before they could impact the ground.

SCP-1662 - Paupers' Post

SCP-1662 is a group of entities identifying as "Paupers' Post", which appear as autonomous, humanoid figures of stainless steel wire mesh, each possessing some form of marking on their body bearing the same name. They display signs of sapience and possess the ability to write in and understand various languages, which vary based mostly on the region they currently inhabit. 1662 possess the ability to create, through an unknown means, various species of pigeon, rat, and squirrel native to the area it occupies, as well as the ability to command and communicate with the animals through subtle movements and percussive cues. 1662 will also use these animals to examine an unspecified area for any individuals who meet the criteria for delivery of letters (SCP-1662-1), through observation of their daily lives. Once an individual has been identified, these animals will imprint upon the individual through an unknown means, and demonstrate the ability to locate them regardless of spatial separation. 1662 will then follow the imprinted individual and attempt to deliver 1662-1 personally, until the point that delivery is made or the individual no longer fulfills the requirements.

SCP-1663 - Containment Site 1663-0

SCP-1663 is the special duty assignment for personnel assigned to Containment Site 1663-0. The research into this assignment is an infohazard, necessitating extraordinary containment requirements for SCP-Ksi-Lambda-0, a Lady Liberty five-dollar coin minted in 1880. Its anomalous effect is triggered whenever any human subject observes, touches, or is otherwise informed of its existence. Within approximately three weeks of exposure to Ksi-Lambda-0, affected subjects begin to develop a pathological revulsion to the ownership, restraint, or containment of material wealth, to which they will begin by donating or gifting all of their possessions, while attempting to convince others to relinquish their possessions. After approximately six weeks, subjects will show increasing hostility towards others with material possessions, eventually culminating with a refusal to take possession of any material whatsoever, even food or water.

SCP-1664 - Living Ink

SCP-1664 is a liquid organism that visually resembles black ink and possesses a consistency identical to that of water. 1664 exhibits the ability to process thought, consume materials, reproduce, communicate, and respond to stimuli. 1664 largely consumes iron and materials possessing traces of it. It accomplishes this by exhibiting a corrosive effect on the material, breaking it down into a liquid form and adding it to its overall mass. When administered to a biological entity, 1664 will convert all iron-rich biological matter present within the host to itself over the course of 72 hours.

SCP-1665 - 8 Across, 18 Across

SCP-1665 is an activity book intended for children, published circa 1999 and filled primarily with crossword puzzles. The book’s anomalous property will manifest when anyone attempts to maintain written or physical records of its contents or appearance. As demonstrated through 1665’s file, any written data will be altered to become a crossword puzzle similar to those in the book, replacing certain words in certain sentences with blank spaces. Non-textual forms of media, such as recordings, are not affected.

SCP-1666 - The Devil's Music

SCP-1666 is an LP of Ozzy Osbourne’s first solo album Blizzard of Ozz. Unlike other copies of the album, 1666 shows an abnormal topology in the layout of the musical tracks recorded on its surface, such as a Mobius strip on track five that will trigger an endless loop where the track reverses and plays a recording of unknown origin as the needle moves back to the beginning. This recording is completely unique to 1666 and contains different lyrics and instrumentation, with new vocals in an as-yet unidentified language. All subjects who listen to this recording universally report feelings of dread and unease, and may experience depression, paranoia, and suicidal ideation, and paranoia, which derive from dissociation between the subject and reality. Subjects will also experience dreams of landscapes and architecture with impossible geometries, housing environments full of malevolent entities described as "living and unliving". Once subjects become aware of this imagined environment, their perception of it becomes obsessive and progressively more intense over time.

SCP-1667 - Shoe-In

SCP-1667 is a contagion that spreads between any type of footwear. Any organism wearing an affected article is compelled to reach an unknown location deep below the central Pacific Ocean, regardless of personal danger. Organisms affected will attempt to remain in physical contact with the affected footwear. Humans under the effects of 1667 are able to communicate semi-rationally, but are primarily driven by their goal to enter the Pacific Ocean and may become physically violent in order to achieve it.

SCP-1668 - Deliver Us From Knowledge

SCP-1668 are three audio recordings composed of samples from a variety of publicly available pieces of music. When an individual listens to the first 24 minutes, 9 seconds of a recording, they will hear the remainder regardless of whether or not it is actually played. Each instance of 1668 has been found in the mailbox of a Foundation staff member not residing on Foundation property, along with a hand-written note by the recordings' creator, one "Erich Zann", appearing to ally with the Foundation.

SCP-1669 - Self-Terminating Loop

SCP-1669 is Dr. Daniel Isaac, an Israeli biologist formerly employed by the Foundation until his classification as a Euclid-class entity. During an event designated 1669-Alpha, which occurs roughly every 33 hours, a perfect copy of Daniel will spontaneously come into existence within 30 meters and immediately attempt to kill him by any means possible. The duplicates will not respond to any attempts at communication and exhibit extraordinary single-mindedness in the completion of their goal. Upon the death of a duplicate, Daniel will lose consciousness for a period of no less than 3 minutes, and will return to consciousness without recollection of any event prior to the initiation of 1669-Alpha.

SCP-1670 - Interdimensional House of Pancakes

SCP-1670 is a restaurant affected by a temporal/spatial anomaly. When it is not open under the name or structure of the original restaurant’s brand, the building and its radius it will spontaneously revert to said brand, even when under direct observation. The reversions appear to have been contained by simply keeping the restaurant open, with Foundation personnel as the staff.

SCP-1671 - Corpse Mine

SCP-1671 is an abandoned coal mine in Pennsylvania which houses SCP-1671-A, a hemisphere of cast iron located in the entry chamber. The lower levels of 1671 contain seams of decayed human corpses, designated SCP-1671-1, which are of varied age and race with no apparent pattern. SCP-1671-2 are a group of 243 blind, hairless, humanoid entities found within the mine. Each specimen is in possession of identical personal belongings, including an iron collar, a boiler suit, a pickaxe, and shovel. 1671-2 are apparently sapient and fluent in English, but will generally ignore or disregard attempts at communication. The entities operate in three eight-hour shifts, with 81 individuals per shift. Materials from 1671-1 are mined by 1671-2 and transported up to the primary entrance chamber through use of a pull-lift.

SCP-1672 - Thinking Inside the Box

SCP-1672 is a single sheet of letter-size copy paper with a black box in the center. Inside the box is an image of a man wearing a cardboard box with a "smiley face" drawn on it over his head, sitting at an office desk. The image is a memetic agent that causes infected individuals to become obsessed with isotropy and the contents of boxes. The meme also seems to have a compulsion factor, as those infected often try to infect others by showing them the image.

SCP-1673 - Friendly Graveyard

SCP-1673 is a cemetery located on the outskirts of the former town of Westkin, West Virginia, containing approximately 60 graves and a mausoleum and surrounded by a wrought iron fence. If a person enters the graveyard between the hours of 8 PM and 3 AM, and remains there for at least 15 minutes, ambulatory constructs resembling human arms will form from the soil. The arms will follow the subject for a period lasting between 1 and 3 hours, after which they will begin to perform small actions that are beneficial to the person, including tying their shoelaces, adjusting their clothing, and attempting to give them a massage. These actions can result in extreme bodily harm, due to the excessive amount of force the arms can exert in performing them. If the subject is removed, 1673 will return to an inert state.

SCP-1674 - Camera Obscura

SCP-1674 is a room located in a 16th-century building in Zwolle, Netherlands. Located within 1674 is an animate sheet of heavy canvas paper, designated SCP-1674-1, and a small round hole located in the center of the far wall’s circular design, designated SCP-1674-2. When the door to 1674 is closed with a human subject inside, 1674-1 unrolls to completely cover the near wall and floor. Sections of the wall bordered by the aligned pinstripes then extrude outwards to form a shallow tunnel with an accordion-like structure, thereby making SCP-1674-3 physically accessible. 1674-3 is an extradimensional region that resembles a rocky taiga or steppe. There is an abundance of native vegetation, but no wildlife aside from a single wood frog. The region is highly irradiated, and staying for an extended duration will cause focused mutagenic effects in non-native organisms.

Portal Picture: SCP-1674-1 is a large painting of an overcast rocky taiga (steppe-like) area. Anyone entering SCP-1674 will end up in another world that resembles the painting.

SCP-1675 - Goose Terminator

SCP-1675 is a bipedal automaton of unknown manufacture that is apparently capable of indefinite operation without fuel or power source. It is equipped with high-strength manipulator arms, armor plating capable of withstanding small arm fire, and two shoulder-mounted machine guns fed from a hopper located on its back. Under normal circumstances, 1675 is docile and harmless, wandering listless and not posing any threat. Whenever 1675 is exposed to a goose of any genus, it will become highly aggressive and attempt to kill the bird by any means possible. It is single-minded, efficient, and exhibits possible intelligence in its ability to operate tactically when need arises.

Berserk Button: It is only hostile towards geese, but woe betide any goose that it comes across, as it is very efficient at killing them.
Foul Waterfowl: What it thinks about geese, deeming them to be a scourge on the planet.
Weapon of X-Slaying: It is extremely effective at taking down geese... but will not attack anything else, not even swans.

SCP-1676 - Customer Loyalty Program

SCP-1676 is a white, two-door 2001 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer that lacks identifying serial numbers and features a sterling silver plaque with the words "Customer Loyalty Program" where the Vehicle Identification Number would be. 1676 starts and operates normally when fueled, but whenever a vehicle of identical make, model, and year is involved in an automotive collision with it in which the driver is killed as a direct result, an exact duplicate of the driver will appear in the driver's seat precisely 37 hours and 21 minutes later. Designated instances of SCP-1676-2, the duplicates appear to be completely indistinguishable from the original subject, including clothing worn, items carried, stomach contents, and memories up until the exact moment of impact.

SCP-1677 - The Song Stuck In Your Head

SCP-1677 are two differing memetic contagions labeled SCP-1677-A and SCP-1677-B, both of which take the form of handwritten documents describing music. 1677-A takes the form of an unknown song with a metered length of one minute, thirty-two seconds. Infection can be transmitted via any form of musical reproduction of its pattern, including a wide variety of instruments and vocal intonation. The primary symptom is the perception of the song described in its written form without discernible source. As the disease progresses, the perceived volume of the song increases. 1677-B takes on the form of a song by a popular artist, though no other recorded instance of the song displays its anomalous properties. Unlike its predecessor, 1677-B can be transmitted via physical contact through the irregular heartbeat of an infected host.

SCP-1678 - UnLondon

SCP-1678 is a full-scale mirror-image reconstruction of London, England, located exactly one kilometer underneath the original city. The city has been constructed to resemble the city as it was in the Victorian era, with constructions designed to resemble traditional gas lighting prevalent on the streets and with all modern buildings in the original city of London being represented in a Victorian style of architecture, most notably the skyscrapers of the Business district. 1678 is believed to have been constructed instantaneously by unknown means, with the Houses of Parliament serving as the "epicenter" for the construction process. The key threat posed by the city are entities referred to SCP-1678-A, ("Bobbies" in audio transcripts). The entities are constructed out of human corpses crudely dismembered at the head, wrists, knees and elbows and re-assembled with industrial hinges and screws, and are dressed in a uniform similar to Victorian-era police. Bobbies are extremely hostile towards Foundation personnel, attacking them on sight with improvised weapons, always preceded by a noise similar to that of a policeman’s whistle.

The End of the World as We Know It: Most likely designed to be a shelter in case of such an event. Pre-recorded loudspeaker announcements heavily imply this. In SCP-5000, the newly evil and omnicidal Foundation took advantage of this by herding refugees into the city claiming it was a shelter before detonating it with a nuclear charge.
Deus est Machina: Whoever designed it apparently planned on becoming this to the citizens residing in it.
Immune to Bullets: SCP-1678-A ("Bobbies") are dismembered and crudely re-assembled human corpses. They are immune to standard firearms but can be affected by large-caliber bullets.
Underground City: Of Apocalypse Bunker type.

SCP-1679 - Post-Mortem Peoples' Choice

SCP-1679 is Belleview, a small town whose mayor, Basil Franklin McMaster (SCP-1679-1), is a mummified corpse in a wheelchair that has been elected for 6 consecutive terms. Basil’s corpse wears a weathered gray suit with a red tie, and consistently leans to the right of its wheelchair. It is accompanied by between 1 and 3 aides when making public appearances, and has a reserved spot at city council meetings. The citizens of Bellview believe that the long-dead Basil is an excellent mayor with an honest streak and an ability to find compromise in nearly any argument. They have further stated that under Basil’s "leadership", the unemployment rate is 3%, crime is unusually low, and an art community is thriving in spite of its small size.

SCP-1680 - Tyler

SCP-1680 is a collection of humanoid entities determined to be exact replicas of Tyler Buchanan, an eight-year-old boy declared missing in 2007. See Addendum 1680-1 for acquisition details. Each instance believes itself to be Tyler and possesses identical memories up to the day of his disappearance. SCP-1680-A is a short school bus with opaque windows, appearing to have been manufactured by the Collins Bus Corporation in 2005. No bus matching this description has been located at any school, and manufacturing information is not available. With varying frequency, 1680-A drives to Site 33, opens its door, and permits an instance of 1680 to depart before driving away.

SCP-1681 - American Idols

SCP-1681 is a phrase containing a memetic agent that exclusively affects human beings, spread specifically through public gatherings attended by over 1000 individuals in countries belonging to the former Soviet Union. The phrase is appended to the end of an anecdote told by individuals (designated SCP-1681-1) in the initial stage of infection. Regardless of their content, the anecdotes begin to lose coherency, incorporating references to the United States and corresponding symbolism. 1681-1 undergoing infection will gradually withdraw from society, severing all ties to family, loved ones and associates. During this time, they will lapse into prolonged catatonia, interspersed with brief periods of lucidity. Ultimately, an infected subject will attempt to gain access to the roof of the nearest high-rise building and throw itself off. Upon impact, they split into multiple instances of a specific object or animal, which disperse at speeds up to 500 m/s.

SCP-1682 - Solar Parasite

SCP-1682 appears to be a large, segmented, worm-like entity located in the sun, The appearance of 1682 near solar prominence is believed to be coincidental, as the entity's apparition in relation to the features is not consistent. The entity appears to roam the surface of the photosphere for 3-4 months, displaying the diving and looping motion of a solar flare, before disappearing beneath for periods of 8-12 months.

SCP-1683 - Moonstruck Bedroom

SCP-1683 is a child's bedroom on the second floor of a two-story residential home in Cleveland, Ohio, containing a ceiling and walls painted black and covered in luminescent space-themed stickers, a telescope, and five bookshelves with several dozen posters and books regarding astronomy and space exploration. Subjects who enter 1683 will immediately and permanently develop a fascination with astronomy, during which the stickers on the walls morph into whatever systems are visible in the sky above 1683. Whenever a human makes skin contact with the telescope, 1683 becomes active. The door will close itself within approximately 0.04 seconds and a human voice can be heard counting down from ten to one at a volume of approximately 75 dB. At the conclusion of the countdown, 1683 and its access corridor will rapidly be heated to 3300 °C while sound identical to the Apollo 13 liftoff can be heard.

SCP-1684 - Viral Realty

SCP-1684 is a phenomenon affecting houses sold by the Hearth Home Realty Corporation in San Francisco, California. When a civilian successfully purchases an affected house, anomalous properties will manifest within 30 days. At this point, the subject, along with their personal possessions and furniture, will spontaneously vanish, after which the house will revert to its pre-sale condition and return to sale on the open market.

SCP-1685 - View Points

SCP-1685 are doors that lead to volumes of outer space that freely mix atmosphere with Earth and are enclosed by an unknown transparent material, allowing human subjects to survive with high-pressure suits. The interior areas of 1685 are roughly cubic with an apparent source of gravity that is consistent with the door used to access it. Observations have shown the interiors are in seemingly random locations with no pattern discovered so far.

SCP-1686 - Fishy Rain

SCP-1686 is an area of land in South Dakota consisting primarily of grassland plateaus. Once every 20-50 days, 1686 will enter its active state, during which cumulonimbus clouds will form and encompass 60% of the total area. The clouds will rotate in a counterclockwise direction within 1686 and have never been observed to exit the area. Upon reaching a stage of development normally associated with the production of liquid precipitation, the clouds will begin, via an unknown mechanism, to produce a large number of marine organisms, the majority of which are alive. These entities, which consist largely of fish, fall to earth normally, and generally expire upon contact with the ground.

SCP-1687 - The Violin

SCP-1687 is a violin of uncertain provenance that appears to be in a state of great disrepair, with chipped F-holes, a partial crack through the neck, and fraying strings. When played while in this state, the music is extremely poor, in keeping with the apparent condition of the instrument. When played simultaneously with any other number of musical instruments, it repairs itself at a rate directly correlated to the number of instruments and the duration and quality of the performance. Once 1687 is no longer being played, it begins to rapidly return to its baseline state. Any musical instrument that is played within the immediate presence of 1687 loses its "musicality". Any attempts to play an affected instrument will produce sounds that are sonographically identical to music, but no living organism will recognize it as music.

SCP-1688 - Brain Storm

SCP-1688 is an electrical storm which, under normal circumstances, remains stationary. Whenever meteorological conditions in the regions near 1688 are conducive to the formation of thunderstorms, the storm will migrate from its principal habitat in the direction of prevailing winds. While moving, 1688 will deliberately move towards areas populated by humans, preferring the largest ones available. It will deliberately target any human beings within its range, regardless of the presence of targets more suitable for lightning strikes. Any subjects that survive being struck by 1688 will, upon their recovery, feel a strong compulsion to begin constructing complex machinery out of any electrical or mechanical parts they can acquire. Samples of this machinery, designated SCP-1688-1, acquired to date have included a large assortment of devices of largely unknown purpose, composed of pieces salvaged from home computers and electronics, fixtures, automobiles, and simple mechanical devices. Affected individuals remain in full possession of their mental faculties, and in interviews have been unable to explain how or why they are engaged in this behavior.

SCP-1689 - Bag of Holding Potatoes

SCP-1689 is a brown burlap sack filled with potatoes, containing approximately two hundred individual tubers. The interior of the sack houses a large extradimensional space designated SCP-1689-A, which is similarly completely filled with potatoes. When portions of 1689-A are empty, the nearby potatoes experience an abnormal form of growth, characterized by tumor-like bulges emerging and splitting into independent potatoes. This effect also applies to normal potatoes introduced to 1689, as well as those removed from it.

Bag of Holding: SCP-1689 is a bag of potatoes that is always full. No matter how many you take out, more will appear.
Bigger on the Inside: Inside the Bag, in addition to the huge number of potatoes there's a wall, floor and ceiling. Beyond the wall there's ground covered with dead grass, a tree and a twisted bicycle, indicating that it was a normal world (with human beings) that was suddenly buried in potatoes for some unknown reason.
The End of the World as We Know It: The alternate world inside SCP-1689 ended not with a bang, but with infinitely-replicating potatoes. Thankfully, the potatoes stop replicating once removed from the bag, which is pretty much the only reason it's Safe rather than Keter.

SCP-1690 - Sentimental Sushi Man with a Wasabi Sculpture

SCP-1690 is a humanoid entity composed entirely of the ingredients of sushi. Its body does not appear to age, though any food produced using parts of itself is perishable. 1690 is capable of bipedal locomotion and has demonstrated advanced fine motor skills, is able to process sensory perception despite its lack of a face, and is able to speak fluent Japanese and English. 1690 behaves in a formal, disciplined manner, sitting cross-legged and motionless in its cell, known to craft various sushi items using ingredients removed from its body and offer them to interviewers and other personnel. 1690 further insists on being in the constant presence of SCP-1690-1, a small sculpture of a young woman in traditional Japanese attire made entirely of wasabi, which similarly does not degrade. If the sculpture is removed from its area over a certain period of time, 1690's physical structure will begin to deteriorate and it will begin to fall apart, gradually reforming when the sculpture is returned.

SCP-1691 - A Revolving Door

SCP-1691 is a revolving door that has had the glass in its wings replaced with silver glass mirrors. When a subject walks through the door to the other side, they are transported to a parallel world where everything is mirrored; a world where right handed people are left handed, profiles on coins face the opposite way, cars drive on the opposite side of the road, etc. It is believed that the people in this world (hereafter referred to as SCP-1691-1), as well as the world’s locations and history, are identical to ours, with its mirrored perception being the only notable difference.

SCP-1692 - Came Back Haunted

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

SCP-1693 - Infectious dementia

SCP-1693 is an infectious form of Alzheimer's disease, known primarily to be spread through verbal communication. The physical nature of the infection, additional potential infection vectors, and the efficacy of amnestics as inoculations or cures are all unknown. The incubation period is similarly unknown, but it has been hypothesized to be in the span of 3-5 minutes following initial exposure.

SCP-1694 - The Ghosts of Venus

SCP-1694 are the residual remains of an extraterrestrial nanotechnological device deployed on the surface of Venus by an unknown entity at an unknown time. A singular 1694 entity is a microrobotic construct approximately 2mm in length, capable of self-replication, self-improvement, and rapid resource extraction from geological and organic sources. 1694 are distributed evenly throughout the planet’s atmosphere and surface in numbers between approximately 500 billion and 1 trillion. On encountering any organic matter, 1694 will rapidly shred the object and quickly reassemble its matter at the cellular level into an interconnected mass of various durable appendages and sophisticated organs. Through unknown means, cells from multiple sources can be made to function together, and even dead tissue can be reconstructed and repaired.

SCP-1695 - Circus Contraption

SCP-1695 is a large mechanism constructed from a black metal alloy of unknown composition. At the rear of the device is a control panel with a number of buttons and switches that serve to operate the device; at the front end is a circular array of flat metal plates. When 1695 is activated via this panel, the circular formation at the device's front end will dilate in a manner similar to an aperture. Viewing the interior of the device from the opening reveals an enclosed chamber walled with the same metal as the device's exterior. When a human subject enters the device’s front chamber, a circular array of plates will automatically close around the subject's torso. Once secured, the subject will undergo a transformation into SCP-1695-2, a fleshy, cylindrical mass intended to be ridden for recreational purposes.

SCP-1696 - Dr. Wondertainment’s Little Big-Banger™

SCP-1696 is a one-meter-cubic box composed of an unknown clear polymer, accompanied with a remote control device containing 12 numeric settings, in addition to "Stop," "Start," and "Reset" buttons. The outer packaging describes the item as "Dr. Wondertainment’s Little Big-Banger™". When a set of parameters is chosen on the remote control and the Start button pressed, a new universe is produced from a singularity within 1696 through the chosen parameters. The Stop button freezes any ongoing activity, and the Reset button dissipates the existing universe, allowing the experimenter to choose new parameters.

SCP-1697 - The Écorché Father

SCP-1697 is the animate body of Dr. Charles Lexi, former head of the Science Museum of Minnesota's "Body World" exhibit, who succumbed to cancer. Upon his death, Charles' body was displayed in the museum per his request, posed at a chessboard across from another body in a "thinking" stance. After being in exhibition for six days, Charles experienced a sudden return to consciousness, having become blind in one eye and suffering from damage similar to hypoxia in some regions of muscle tissue. Charles possesses a functioning circulatory system, although his blood is almost entirely composed of plasma. Charles has not experienced any illness, infections, or further adverse consequences since containment, besides those previously mentioned.

SCP-1698 - You Can't Get There From Here

SCP-1698 is a phenomenon that currently affects 3 separate buildings: a 12-story hotel in the United States, a 2-story boarding house in France, and a 5-story office building in Brazil. The phenomenon affects these buildings in such a way that none of them can successfully be approached at ground level. Although they can be seen, all attempts to reach them on foot or by land vehicle result in encountering obstacles such as intervening buildings, extensive road construction, gridlocked traffic, road closures, and impassable vegetation. All 3 buildings can successfully be approached by air travel, and while there are no anomalous phenomena within the buildings themselves and they can be exited regularly via the ground floor, they become impossible to relocate.

SCP-1699 - Inferior Volcano

SCP-1699 is a dormant volcano located northwest of Hólsfjallavegur, Iceland, consisting of little more than a volcanic vent. The volcano is sapient and capable of speech via anomalous means. Through speech, 1699 demonstrates a pleasant demeanor and a willingness to communicate with attending personnel. Since its dormancy, it appears to have developed an inferiority complex, often comparing itself to larger volcanoes in other places, and has been continuously desiring to be "more destructive" and "better at being a natural disaster."

1700- 1749

SCP-1700 - Debtshop

SCP-1700 is a series of anomalous items associated with Fashion Sun Fabrics Limited, a scarf manufacturer with factories in India, China, and Thailand. SCP-1700-A are the scarves produced by the company, which exhibit no anomalous properties until death of their owner. Upon death, the corpse and scarf will, through unknown means, vanish and reappear at SCP-1700-B, a large warehouse containing a series of sweatshops (SCP-1700-C) for producing 1700-A. Any intact human corpse brought inside 1700-C becomes animate as long as it remains within the building. The cadavers retain memories of their life, and fragments of their personality, and they do not need to eat, drink, sleep, or breathe. Fashion Sun Fabrics takes advantage of this by employing the corpses to make scarves.

Necromancer: The three people who founded Fashion Sun Fabrics Limited discovered a way to make yellow scarves that cause anyone who dies while wearing them to come back to life as zombie-like creatures.
Our Zombies Are Different: When someone dies while wearing a SCP-1700-A yellow scarf, their body is transported to a sweatshop and becomes animate again for as long as it's inside the building. The body still has its memories and fragments of its personality.
Undead Laborers: The zombies created by SCP-1700 are forced to act as slave labor, creating more of the SCP-1700-A (magical yellow scarves) that animated them.

SCP-1701 - In Tents and Purposes

SCP-1701 is an "E-Z UP" brand pop-up canopy tent capable of autonomous motion and predatory behavior. When active, its fabric changes color to display iridescent green and blue fractal patterns. Should it detect any movement within 5m of itself, 1701's legs will elongate to over 10m in length and manifest several joints, whereupon they will flail violently until they make contact with the triggering object, wrapping around it and pulling it towards the center to consume. Any person that has witnessed the tent "consume" an object will suffer headaches, irritated eyes, and sinus pain for up to 8 hours. The eyeballs and eyelashes will transform into miniature duplicates of 1701, which will scuttle away and grow to full size in about 2 hours.

SCP-1702 - The French Hive

SCP-1702 is a species of apian humanoids consisting of a hive with a single queen (SCP-1702-1), a handful of male drones (SCP-1702-2), and several hundred workers (SCP-1702-3). These humanoids have an appearance analogous to normal humans, with the notable exception of several prominent apian structures, including antennae extending from their heads and chitinous skin along their backs and limbs. They also have similar internal physiology, with the notable addition of a compound stomach with a chamber capable of processing organic material and raw minerals. Ingested material is turned into a substance resembling human bone that can then be regurgitated and used in construction and repairs of the hive.

Bee People: The inhabitants of SCP-1702 are humanoids who have bee-like features (antennae and chitinous skin). They have a Hive Caste System that includes an Insect Queen.
Hive Caste System: The humanoids who live in SCP-1702 are of three types: an Insect Queen who mainly lays eggs, male drones who fertilize the Queen and sterile females who do most of the work.
Insect Queen: The Queen of SCP-1702 (SCP-1702-1) is highly intelligent, lays eggs that become the other members of the hive, and is killed by the sterile females (SCP-1702-3) if she becomes flawed in any way. Any female human being who happens to be inside SCP-1702 when this happens becomes the new Queen.

SCP-1703 - Slightly Radioactive Lightbulb

SCP-1703 is an object similar in appearance to a lit 60W incandescent light bulb. Despite its appearance, 1703 seems to lack visible filament. The source of its glow is a walnut-shaped core which has been determined to emit small amounts of radiation across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. 1703’s anomalous effect acts on most solid and opaque objects illuminated directly by visible light for at least 3 minutes and 17 seconds. Affected objects undergo a 2-week period within which they will lose 20% of their weight, despite not actually losing any mass. Once every six months, 1703's glow rapidly intensifies into a brief, intense flash. All previously affected objects caught in the flash appear to become inversely affected by gravity, "falling upwards" and reaching terminal velocity as a regular object of a similar mass would in free-fall.

SCP-1704 - Finished Business

SCP-1704 is a structure composed of approximately 240 animate, fully conscious human skeletons (SCP-1704-1). The structure disappears and reappears at irregular intervals; the identity, arrangement, and exact number of 1704-1 changing each time. The remainder of the structure is composed of individual bones and bone fragments, along with a cementing material composed primarily of bone dust that holds the structure's shape. Instances of 1704-1 have limited mobility, despite the lack of any muscles that would be necessary for these activities. All instances are capable of verbal communication in at least one language, and those interviewed have been able to provide identities and personal information consistent with a person who has died within the past sixty years. Typically, the skeletons express feelings of hopelessness, confusion, and doubt, and are often reluctant to communicate with Foundation personnel or other instances. They will often obsess over the details of their life, frequently questioning whether some unidentified "unfinished business" was responsible for their incorporation into 1704.

SCP-1705 - A Collection of Bones

SCP-1705 is a collection of 2,507 bones of various origin and composition. Many of the bones are identical in shape and size, and they have all been physically altered with notches and protrusions for the apparent purpose of accommodating one another. The bones can be assembled in a variety of ways by following diagrams etched onto SCP-1705-A, a series of stone tablets with pictorial instructions for construction. When assembled according to the diagrams, 1705 instances will begin to rapidly produce tissues that create usable tools, machines, and inventions, forming an instance of SCP-1705-B. All instances are composed of tissues normally found in terrestrial fauna. All modifications done to an instance of 1705-B constructed using a specific subset of 1705 appear to remain over time and do not change after repeated disassemblies and reconstruction.

SCP-1706 - Eater of Dreams

SCP-1706 is a DVD transfer of the unaired pilot episode of a science-fiction show entitled "Eater of Dreams", filmed at an unknown date between 1987 and 1991. The episode follows a group of seven people living in an apartment complex in New York City in the midst of an unspecified city-wide crisis. The individuals interact with a variety of civilian and government officials and military personnel asking questions regarding a group of individuals called "Eaters", who are described as being "cannibalistic". The episode concludes with one of these individuals addressing the camera, delivering a rambling, incoherent monologue directly addressing the viewers. 1706 itself causes a series of mental effects on all sapient beings within a minimum radius, often manifesting in the form of physical alterations to brain chemistry. While the effects have varied from person to person, distinct patterns have emerged in much of the affected individuals. The majority of those exposed experience alterations in memory and knowledge of their surroundings, including misunderstanding of previously well-understood slang, incorrect recollection of recent historical events, and selective loss of memory, experiences, and learned skills.

SCP-1707 - New Skin

SCP-1707 is a type of collective organism composed of a mass of worm-like creatures, individually designated SCP-1707-A. In isolation, 1707 forms a flattened mass, conserving movement until it detects a suitable host. Should even a few of 1707-A contact a sapient host's epidermis, they will administer a fast-acting paralytic agent via their mouthparts. Each creature will then seek out epidermal tissue to burrow through and consume before anchoring themselves in the host's dermal layer. When established on a host, secondary physical effects include increased nutritional requirement and a higher chance of transdermal infection. Upon the death of a host, 1707 enters its reproductive phase, rapidly consuming soft tissues of the corpse. The reproductive process leads to the colony roughly triple in size.

Body Horror: Having your skin removed and replaced by a colony of worms can ruin your whole day.
Flaying Alive: SCP-1707 is a colony of worms that can completely remove the skin of any creature. Once the skin is removed, SCP-1707 replaces the creature's skin.

SCP-1708 - The Hollowed

SCP-1708 is an entity of unknown origin, which is bipedal with fourteen thin limbs. 1708's flesh is a pale, metallic color and composed of a combination of alkaline metals. It exhibits muscular strength and speed far inferior to that of an average human's. The head of 1708 is oval in shape and devoid of features, excluding four holes in the face. It is capable of understanding orders given to it, but does not seem to be capable of communicating using any known language or responding to external stimuli of any other kind. 1708 is frequently observed sitting in a crouched position in the center of its cell, moving only when it is prompted to move by personnel. In the presence of religious artifacts, ornaments, or textiles, 1708 enters a state of confusion, causing it to be less cooperative and more prone to self-harm.

SCP-1709 - Human Fetus Composite

SCP-1709 is a 52 year old Quechua woman apparently in a catatonic state, who displays very little ability or inclination to act on her own behalf outside of documented behavior. 1709's the majority of her internal organs, so her vital biological functions are carried out by a series of organisms bearing a superficial resemblance to masses of fused human fetuses in various stages of development. Despite her catatonic state, 1709 has demonstrated limited capacity for communication. When another human addresses her directly, she communicates by processing remarks directed to her and producing a human fetus from a sac connected to her esophagus. This fetus (hereby designated SCP-1709-01) will then vocalize a response to the inquiry or statement originally directed at 1709.

SCP-1710 - Life as a Tree

SCP-1710 are a pair of English oak trees located in the UK. Both trees are capable of emitting sounds from a location approximately 1.5 meters distance up the length of the trunk. 1710 will imitate the vocalizations of the nearest mammal, bird, or reptile, using them to communicate between themselves. When imitating human speech, SCP-1710-1 (an eldritch horror turned into what it is through arcane knowledge) will vocalize as an indeterminable number of voices, both masculine and feminine and of various ages and accents, speaking at once. SCP-1710-2 (an old woman from a local village who answered a newspaper ad) vocalizes using a single feminine voice. Both individuals were turned into trees after making a deal with an entity known as the "Skybound Antelope".

And I Must Scream: Both of them are completely self-aware and trapped in the forms of two trees on a sunny hill in a park somewhere in the United Kingdom for the foreseeable future. Subverted in that only SCP-1710-1 seems to be the one really upset about it, and even they are shown to be Going Native by the article's end.
Alien Geometries: According to SCP-1710-1, our world is far too "soft, curved, rounded and dull" for their tastes, it all being completely anathema to their home reality. Thusly, they feel they "must keep sharp" while here to avoid un-necessarily weakening themselves.
Anthropomorphic Personification: SCP-1710-1 was an eldritch personification of sharpness, if their comments are anything to go by at least.
The Comically Serious: 1710-1's sheer stubbornness and grim nature despite the utter absurdity of the situation makes them very funny, especially when contrasted with 1710-2's cheery optimism.
SCP-1710-1: (when talking about how Saturn Deer tricked them) We became…this. Tricked. He talked too fast, too much, too smug. Like birds, jumping on our acorns, nipping. We hate them so.
Cool Old Lady: When she was still a human, 1710-2 seems to have been an elderly British housewife living out in the country. Her personality hasn't changed that much since she was put into a tree, but her cheery conversations with a former Eldritch Abomination means she now definitely counts as one.
Deal with the Devil: Both 1710-1 and 1710-2 made separate deals with Saturn Deer's "Skybound Antelope Reincarnation Services," with the former wanting to (possibly) chase down SCP-682 in the Foundation's universe while the latter wanted to be reborn as a manatee. Obviously, neither got what they wanted in the end.
Defrosting Ice Queen: 1710-1 gets gradually less and less jerkish towards 1710-2 as they stay stuck next to each other for a longer & longer time.
Eldritch Abomination: SCP-1710-1 was one of these from another universe, previously known as "The Serrated Void," or "That Which Rends". Now...they're just a talking tree on a hill (much to their consternation). Admittedly, there's still some weird things going on with their bark, but they're now a far cry from the entity that used to be able to "pierce the innards of atoms".
Forced Transformation: Both SCP-1710-1 and 1710-2 were turned into trees by Saturn Deer's reincarnation scam.
Glamour Failure: A variant - Despite being ostensibly made of wood, SCP-1710-1's tree is described as having bark so sharp that it can cause minor lacerations if people touch it un-protected. Also, their bark has an average temperature of −67.25°C^noteroughly −89.05°F, but never has frost materialize on it.
Going Native: 1710-1 slowly becomes nicer to 1710-2 while getting curious about human culture, and also starts to take actual pleasure from being now just a tree (much to their horror).
Hypocritical Humor: SCP-1710-1 dismissively calls 1710-2 a "sun drinker" and "bark-thing," despite both of them now being trees. 1710-2 even lampshades 1710-1's hypocrisy.
Invisible to Normals: A downplayed inversion, as both 1710-1 and 1710-2 don't react to external attempts at communicating with them. They can still be physically recorded and observed by outside observers, though.
Manipulative Editing: A weird biological variant - To communicate with each other, they will imitate the vocalizations of the nearest mammal, avian, or reptile. However, when they imitate human speech, they seem to "default" to their natural voices, with 1710-2 talking in a single feminine voice and 1710-1 going full Voice of the Legion.
Motor Mouth: 1710-2 just loves to talk and talk and talk (as 1710-1 learns to their consternation).
Nice Girl: Aforementioned Motor Mouth tendencies aside, 1710-2 is actually quite friendly and personable, still trying to comfort 1710-1 despite the latter repeatedly insulting her. And even though she has left them behind with her reincarnation, she is shown to often think back fondly on her happy times with her beloved husband and daughter from when she was still human.
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Played for Laughs when SCP-1710-1 sheepishly admits that they're finding it too difficult to keep on "sharpening" themselves.
SCP-1710-1: Must regain ourselves, must seek retribution! Sharpen ourselves from…wood. So tired. So…round. This form ill suits sharpness. Materials incompatible, atmosphere hostile to our needs, wildlife distracting. Fuzzy things…crawling on us.
SCP-1710-2: You sound just awful, dear.
SCP-1710-1: We are…tired. Too much struggle, keeping the metal. Metal hated rain, but rain…rain is nice. Sun is nice. What is happening to us?!
SCP-1710-2: Identity crisis, I suppose. Oh, I know what will help! How about a nice cup of tea?
Shout-Out: invoked According to the author, the SCP as a whole is heavily inspired by both The Shrike and his Tree of Pain from Dan Simmons' Hyperion Cantos series.
Stealth Pun: SCP-1710-1 is described as "The Serrated Void," often describing how sharp they (literally) were. Also, they often talk in dark and foreboding passages, occasionally mentioning how they used to have enough power in their home reality where they could "pluck out the eyes of gods" and "make the universe our whetstone". In other words, SCP-1710-1 is a literal edgelord.
This Is Gonna Suck: Played for Laughs near the ending of the last recording log, when SCP-1710-1 starts to fully realize their predicament as SCP-1710-2 rambles on and on about tea.
SCP-1710-1: We are beginning to suspect we have made a grievous error.
Voice of the Legion: SCP-1710-1 is described as talking in "an indeterminable number of voices, both masculine and feminine and of various ages and accents, all speaking at once" when it imitates human speech.
We Named the Monkey "Jack": Because 1710-2 can't understand SCP-1710-1's true name, she decides to nickname them "Maxwell," after her pet dog from when she was little.
When Trees Attack: Averted, as the only really anomalous thing about them (aside from the hints of SCP-1710-1's true nature with its bark) is their conversations with each other.

SCP-1711 - You Speak My Language

SCP-1711 are three products sold by the "LingoBingo Mail Order Center of Individual Linguistics" on social media outlets. The products (designated SCP-1711-1, SCP-1711-2, and SCP-1711-3) each contain distinct but interconnecting anomalies. 1711-1 is a thirty-five-page instructional manual titled "The LingoBingo Guide to a Liberated, Emancipated Self™". If read in its entirety, the manual will erase all existing knowledge of spoken or written languages in the subject, and replace them with an individually constructed language only understood by them. 1711-2 are aerosol cans branded "LingoBingo's Communication Enabler™". If sprayed by an individual previously affected by 1711-1 on another individual, the aerosol will transfer the manua’s effects. 1711-3 are 100ml drip bottles, branded "LingoBingo Error Remedy™". If used on an individual affected by the former two products, liquid will restore the subject's linguistic capabilities to what they were prior to exposure.

SCP-1712 - An Unusual Occurrence On August 11th, 1959

SCP-1712 are two anomalous objects which manifested under unexplained circumstances. SCP-1712-A is the petrified body of construction worker "Richard Boyd" of Chicago, Illinois, fused to half of an iron beam, currently in the outer rim of the Solar System and moving at a rate of 20 kilometers per hour and counting. SCP-1712-B is a tabby kitten with black and white fur which immediately turns any living organism it comes into physical contact with into stone. The transformation occurs instantaneously, and will also affect non-organic matter the subject makes direct contact with such as clothing, held objects, and the ground beneath them.

SCP-1713 - Mechanical Curiosity

SCP-1713 is a large underground factory complex that is constructed primarily of brick, steel and glass, dedicated to the construction of 18th century goods. Inside the complex is a variety of clockwork-based machines, which make up part of a large factory construction line. The factory is divided into 12 levels, each connected by elevators and large transport tubes. The core of 1713 is located at the second-lowest level of the complex, and is surrounded by blast doors constructed of a combination of lead plating, iron plating and cadmium plating. Inside the core is a reactor bank composed of 18 glass cylinders arranged on an icosahedral steel object, that is attached by 3-meter thick poles to the floor and ceiling of the room. The lowest level of 1713 is composed of small workshops used to model machines for the main lines, operated by a series of robots with insect-like appendages. The distinguishing feature of these robots is that, in the core of each robot, there appears to be a human brain.

SCP-1714 - The Parsimonious Physicist

SCP-1714 is a partially-finished mathematical proof attempting to create a mathematical framework for the analysis of anomalies. Among 1714's more important sections is a lemma proving the existence of anomalies as a natural consequence of the boundary conditions of the universe. This lemma predicts a prevalence of alterations in reality as understood by mainstream science. At seemingly random intervals, the text of 1714 becomes a series of writings railing against the complexity of the observable universe and expressing a desire to restructure it into a form too simple to sustain life.

SCP-1715 - Online Friend

SCP-1715 is an anomalous entity that sporadically joins and integrates itself into small online communities centered around video games, TV programs, musical groups, and similar interests. 1715 begins to show anomalous properties once it has established itself as a presence on an online community. At that time, it will send a number of private messages to other site members, which generally begin with a declaration of friendship, followed by fabricated details regarding the entity’s personal life, and a request for the recipient's personal information. If the user provides 1715 with factual personal information, the user will be injured in a violent incident. Their account will remain active in its respective online communities, posting content consistent with the user’s personality and writing style. The accounts possess the same memories as their counterparts up until the time of their death, but deny that they are dead.

SCP-1716 - Imperfect Life Extender

SCP-1716 is a set of wooden chairs connected by copper wires to an anomalous electronic device. The apparent intent of 1716 is to transfer "life energy" from a donor to a recipient, making the recipient healthier at the expense of weakening the donor. This transfer operates at approximately 10% efficiency, and it also transfers portions of the memories and knowledge of the donor to the recipient.

Life Drinker: One recipient managed to turn into one of these, with anyone in close proximity to him being drained slowly of their life energy.
Life Energy: SCP-1716 is a device that transfers life energy from one person to another.
Rapid Aging: SCP-1716 causes the Life Energy donor to age 10 years for every year the recipient's life is extended.
Transferable Memory: Partial memories from the donor are transferred to the recipient in what appears to be a possibly unintended side effect of the device.

SCP-1717 - Green ACRES

SCP-1717 is a plant disease that occurs when SCP-1717-1, an endogenous pararetrovirus found in the genome of all true grasses, is triggered. This virus induces the production of novel enzyme CCR, which degrades chlorophyll into an analog molecule incapable of participating in photosynthesis. Before death, significant quantities of CCR are expressed in the endosperm within seeds of affected plants. CCR can leach from decaying plant matter into the soil, and is robust enough to kill or injure several generations of plants before deteriorating to non-toxic byproducts. CCR has low or mild acute toxicity in animals and humans.

SCP-1718 - Experimental Containment Unit

SCP-1718 is an everlasting energetic anomaly that arose during a project managed by the Foundation to explore the limits of their containment sciences. Instrumentation has evidenced that the power, temperature, and gyroscopic stability of the machinery used to conduct the test, especially the core, are believed to be influential in the anomaly’s creation.

SCP-1719 - The Harrison-Grey Effect

SCP-1719 is an optical device commonly known as a Harrison-Grey lens. When viewed through 1719, a significant number of humans (designated SCP-1719-1) exhibit an anomalous appearance (known as the Harrison-Grey effect), primarily by displaying a variety of non-human features. 1719-1 appear to be a heterogeneous combination of three or more species arranged in a generally humanoid form.

SCP-1720 - Hijacked Space Probe

SCP-1720 is a lunar orbital probe formerly designated "Pioneer P-3", which suffered a malfunction approximately 45 seconds after launch when it was struck by an object of presumed extraterrestrial origin entering the atmosphere. Following the impact and loss of control, the probe managed to reach low Earth orbit despite damage to its primary systems. For several weeks following the launch, sporadic telemetry received by ground stations indicated that 1720 was in an erratic, constantly changing orbit consistent with periodic adjustments made via the probe's on-board propulsion systems.

SCP-1721 - Cultural Revolution

SCP-1721 is a collection of three spinning tops (SCP-1721-1, SCP-1721-2, and SCP-1721-3) which spin indefinitely on any flat surface and inscribe anomalous messages in black ink. 1721-1’s writings take the form of a novel titled "The Bureaucrat’s Wife", written in Cyrillic in the style of a 19th-Century Russian author. 1721-2 transcribes the thoughts and internal monologue of a randomly selected nearby individual. 1721-3 irregularly alternates between providing nonsensical advice and instructions which prove disastrous if followed. When all three tops are spun in close proximity, they coordinate in producing a wide variety of artifacts, including technical schematics and drawn illustrations.

SCP-1722 - Curmudgeon's Cudgel

SCP-1722 is a white oak branch decorated with various acrylic paints, colored duct tape, strips of leather, and feathers of the Canada goose. When 1722 is held by a human subject, the contents of all physical and digital documents within a five-meter radius will be permanently altered to contain handwritten commentary and proofreading notes. Video footage and audio recordings will be altered by the addition of a voice providing commentary. The voice and written dialogues are those of an adult male, estimated to be approximately 60 years of age.

Bold Inflation: His only comment on a romance novel called Sultan of Spice is the sentence "AND THEN THEY FUCKED AND GOOD GOD THIS PROSE IS PURPLE," written one letter a page.
Deadpan Snarker: His comments are highly sarcastic and biting.
While reading his own testing log: Oh look, it’s a guy with a stick. Wonderful, wonderful. Another guy walks in, "Hey Bob, how’s it going?" "Oh, you know, just holding this stick here". "Oh really that sounds interesting! Here, hold this book". "Gee wiz, Frank, now I’m holding both a stick and a book and aaaaaaaaaaaargh do something already!".
Dreadful Musician: When SCP-1722 sings along to a recording of Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone", his voice is notably off-tune.
Grammar Nazi: He complains about having to add too many missing apostrophes to a badly-written piece of fanfiction.
Grumpy Old Man: SCP-1722's voice in vocal and audio recordings is that of an adult male about 60 years old.
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: He only gets one page into a fanfiction called Immersion Deeps because he's so irritated by the lack of apostrophes.
Sophisticated as Hell: His comments on a historical speech written by an 18th-century member of the British parliament.
Look, now, you’re on the right track here, but just think about what you’re saying. Stomping down on the colonists is just going to get ugly for all parties involved. Best option would be to keep them as a semi-autonomous district, with a locally elected official serving as regional governor, accompanied by a second position who serves as representative in parliament. Also, knock it off with those curly fs. They’re annoying as shit to read.

SCP-1723 - Radio Intercepting Woman

SCP-1723 is a 90-year-old Uzbeki woman who is able to receive the contents of any radio waves passing within 300m of her location, with her spine and brain acting as a receiver. 1723 "hears" these broadcasts as disembodied voices, and she can pick up on any broadcast in real time, regardless of the level of encryption. She also suffers from several degenerative conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, osteoarthritis, cataracts, and deafness in her left ear, with limited hearing in the right.

SCP-1724 - Soul Meter

SCP-1724 is a mechanical device composed of three primary components, respectively designated SCP-1724-1, -2, and -3. 1724-1 is a large glass orb supported by a brass stand, with a valve and several rods that emit an electrical current within. 1724-2 is composed of several large steel rods connected by wire that emit large amounts of gamma radiation when active. 1724-3 is a large chair with two television monitors built into the side. This chair has several instruments designed to attach to the human body. 1724's anomalous effect will activate if a person sits in 1724-3 while the device’s components are within 20 meters of each other. If this occurs, 1724-1 will begin to exude green smoke, and the valve will begin to turn at an accelerated pace. After approximately 30 minutes have passed, the monitors located on 1724-3 will begin to display images which usually relate to the subject in some way, though the context is usually impossible to determine. Persons affected by 1724 will experience a 10-15% decrease in their reaction time, mental acuity, and will experience difficulty forming rational thought, instead forming symptoms of sociopathy.

SCP-1725 - Servant Enhancements

SCP-1725 is an ornate brass box with a panel attached to its left side, which houses a dial that can adjust to nine different settings. 1725 does not require any outside power source to function, and does not produce any type of waste. Any person who enters 1725 when the dial is changed will have one of nine physical mutations applied to them. These mutations correspond with the options on the control panel. The mutations are designed in such a way that they cause the person's body to mimic popular fashion accessories such as earrings and high heels.

SCP-1726 - The Library and the Pillar

SCP-1726 is a one-story structure in China estimated to originate from around 1200 CE. The interior of 1726 is a stable spatial anomaly containing a library, surrounded by a small garden and fountain. The contents of the library consist primarily of philosophical, theological, and historical texts, accompanied by artifacts from civilizations in east and central Asia, many of which originate from cultures unknown to general anthropology. A stone pillar rises out of the central garden, ascending through a hole in the roof to an unknown height and climbable by means of a wooden walkway spiraling around the edge of the structure. SCP-1726-1 are fifty-four known humanoid constructs composed of porcelain. The constructs are hollow, capable of full articulation, and will generally appear to be stylized representations of scholarly cultural archetypes. 1726-1 are sapient and fluent in various dialects of modern and ancient Chinese languages, and other obscure or extinct dialects. When an individual remains outside 1726 for an extended period of time, a 1726-1 specimen will emerge from the structure and offer to lead the individual in a tour of the library.

Bigger on the Inside: The Library appears to be a small one story structure. Inside it is 14 square kilometers in area and a pillar inside it reaches up at least 12.8 kilometers.
Magical Library: The Library has many volumes of philosophy, theology, and history from cultures that are mythological in the real world (such as Shambhala, Lemuria and Mu). It has animated statues that can speak various languages and act as guides for visitors.

SCP-1727 - Auto-Heaven

SCP-1727 is a portable car wash with a logo for the non-existent "CRSHCRS Corporation" printed on the sides. When a vehicle enters 1727, it will be cleaned normally by its components in several differing fashions. When a button at the bottom labeled "Open-Sub Cleaning" is selected, the cleaning instruments will hold the vehicle in place and the roof will open via an unknown mechanism. Following this, the vehicle will be catapulted upward at an angle, and will continue to be propelled through the air until they pass a source of water large enough to enclose them. After reaching their destinations, vehicles will decelerate normally.

SCP-1728 - Buttery Decapitated Highwayman

SCP-1728 is a headless humanoid entity that is capable of functioning with normal human-like capacity, and has no apparent sensory, motor, or metabolic difficulties.It has a grasp of the English language similar to that of a child of 8-10 years of age, and its intelligence shows likewise. 1728 continuously exudes a substance chemically identical to dairy butter from the surface of its body, allowing for an extremely low coefficient of friction. The butter generally remains closely adherent to 1728's body, but rubs off on anything the entity touches. Instead of fingernails, 1728 has hollow points of bone that protrude from the ends of its fingers, which it can produce this butter from. 1728 actively resists containment, as it is capable of slipping out of most forms of restraints, which it will do at any given chance. It uses the butter it exudes to its advantage, sliding across nearly any surface and leaving tracks of butter behind it. Its current goal appears to be to retrieve SCP-1728-1, a 22cm-long steel knife with a cast-iron handle, from containment.

SCP-1729 - The Collectors

SCP-1729 is an indeterminate number of autonomous motor vehicles of differing model and manufacturer, painted black and marked with a "TAXI" panel, as well as the logo and phone number of a taxi service. 1729 tend to activate at random times between 10 pm and 8 am, during which they proceed to move along streets in a random pattern. During the active period, humans looking at 1729 perceive a humanoid figure, designated SCP-1729-1, sitting in the driver's seat. If an active instance is approached or gestured to, it will stop and unlock its doors. 1729-1 will attempt to mimic a taxi driver, proceeding towards a passenger’s intended destination. Subsequently, the back seat will shift, a set of manipulators will restrain the passenger, paralyze them by means of an electric discharge and a series of rollers will proceed to relocate them into the trunk, the body will be dismembered and organized in saline-filled PE bags.

SCP-1730 - What Happened to Site-13?

SCP-1730 was a large complex of structures 15km northwest of the US/Mexico border within Big Bend Ranch State Park. 1730 bore identifying markings and contained documents to support the claim that it was, at one point, Foundation Site-13, originally located near Nome, Alaska. The site was displaced from an alternate timeline where the Foundation and the Global Occult Coalition joined forces. The site's director, Dr. Emmerson, was known to unscrupulously mulch any humanoid anomalies in a massive meat grinder underneath the site, but when he tried to shove a leech-like creature that fed on blood within, everything went horribly wrong.

Alternate History: The construction of Site-13 was scrapped in favor of creating Site-19, but SCP-1730 is from an alternate timeline where Site-19 was scrapped and Site-13 built instead to house and dispose of a sea monster carcass. SCP-1730/Site-13’s universe also saw the Soviet Union collapse in 1985, a Marxist extremist bringing down the "Manchester Financial Tower" in 1994, and the Foundation merge with the Global Occult Coalition after Dole won the 1996 election.
A Nazi by Any Other Name: After the Coalition annexed the Foundation and Emerson was promoted to Site-13’s director, it wasn’t long until it was opted to conduct vivisections and put the incinerator back to use. Once the Ethics Committee was informed, the chairman was labeled a traitor for his sympathy and the new Head of the Ethics decreed that all anomalous humans are acceptable to deride.
However, you must understand that anomalies, especially those classified as "humanoid", are not human beings. Human beings fall into a very specific category of non-anomalous lifeforms. Humanoid anomalies may appear to be human, but are simply “humanoid”. As such, they are not entitled to the rights and privileges afforded to human beings by the Ethics Committee.
Badass Normal: Z-9 Cap/Hollis. Despite lacking the fundamental immortality of Tau-5's units, she leads them and the rest of the survivors towards the massive containment cells while being chased by the Giant Leech Monster. As she gets the survivors to flee, her and Tau-5 managed to hack the doors, releasing the Gate Guardian AND the Deer simultaneously in a massive battle against the leech. As Tau-5 catches up with the rest of the group, she stays behind to make sure the anomalies, the machine, and the horrors of Site-13 are banished for good, T-5 Onru's camera revealing her going guns blazing, laughing hysterically as she is engulfed by a white light and flames.
Backstory Invader: A heavily-decayed corpse found by Apollo-3 briefly gives them Fake Memories of "Zachary".
SiteCommand: "Team Lead, please be advised that you are under the effects of a powerful cognitohazard. We are attempting to upload a filter to your SCRAMBLE visors, one moment".
AP-3 Vigo: "Nah, Command, it’s alright. It’s just Zachary. We go way back, don’t we buddy?"
AP-3 Vigo playfully punches the corpse, dislodging its jaw. The corpse does not respond.
Came Back Wrong: Prior to Site-13’s containment breach and his scheduled termination, Elijah/Entity-3421 was likened by the G.O.C. to leeches, not unlike the hive mind of ones to ravage the site after his death.
Chaos Architecture: The Reality-Warpers and dimension-hopping failsafe has left some of already decrepit and hazardous sections physically incoherent.
T-5 Nanku: "So we’re looking at a map? It seems too distorted to be a map".
T-5 Onru: "Ongoing topographical changes. Means that, despite the changes in the structure of the site, it’s all still located within our local reality. It’s just unstable".
Continuity Cameo: The Mobile Task Forces encounter the Alternate Universe counterparts to several SCPs.
Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Some of the largest containment cells held beings such as SCP-2845 and the Abrahamic God.
Dr. Scott: "In 2010 we contained God. Not just any god, either. The Abrahamic God. The actual, thunder and lightning, Y-H-W-H, fire and brimstone god".
Disney Death: The survivors of Zeta-9 and Apollo-3 can easily be assumed dead until they are found by the Cyborg Badass Crew Tau-5 "Samsara".
Z-9 Hollis: "Oh boy. The goddamn Power Rangers. They told me about you". (Pauses to survey the team) "You look like you’ve been hit by a train".
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The inhumane treatment and killing of the SCPs held in Site-13 is a strong allegory to the death camps of World War II.
Interdimensional Travel Device: The Thresher; a machine with No Plans, No Prototype and No Backup, built with the purpose that in event of a mass security breach it would rip Site-13 from the ground and throw it to another dimension to be their Leaking Can of Evil.
Malevolent Architecture: Due to being thrown into a different universe, several segments underground have the walls and floor collapsing to a dangerous, even chaotic extent. The burrowing leeches in the basement aren’t doing much to help either.
Mechanical Monster: As the Mobile Task Forces are evacuating the survivors from SCP-1730, they encounter an amalgamation of robotic parts, topped off with a small Killer Robot at the helm of the Tiny-Headed Behemoth. While the logs only refer to it as "Mechanical Entity" ^note(and once, just the head as "Robot"), the small, toy-like description of the head is reminiscent of RoboDude™, but its hammy and malicious personality holds a strong similarity to PesterBot. It’s presumably a mix of them.
Multi-Armed and Dangerous: Tau-5 encounters a being with 6 legs, 18 arms branching off into a total of 36 forearms, and 72 hands. That’s 390 digits. ^note(288 fingers, 72 thumbs, and 30 toes)
Mummies at the Dinner Table: Played for Black Comedy laughs with Apollo-3’s "reunion" with a corpse stuck in the wall, asking "Zachary" for directions.
Names to Run Away From: A machine called "the Thresher" doesn’t seem pleasant. Neither would numbered "body pits".
The Reveal: the real villain of SCP-1730 was Paul Manafort; the Secretary General of the G.O.C. in Site-13's universe.
Retired Monster: SCP-993 is one of the surviving anomalies in Site-13 and while he still has his usual personality, his threat level has reduced significantly due to a mix of the disfigurement the Foundation inflicted on him and the trauma of the horrors he witnessed. He tells the guards that if they see the guy who causes this mess, he wants them to "rape him to death".
Room Full of Crazy: Rambling and writings have been fingerpainted in ferrous blood or across the walls in either English or Black Speech by a cloaked entity in a straw hat.
Sealed Evil in a Can: The Eldritch Horrors inside SCP-1730 thankfully have stayed within the confines of the Site-13’s ruins; the only thing that came out of it were radio waves and the survivors.
Zero-Effort Boss: The enigmatic cloaked figure recorded by the drone is easily gunned down by Munru and Nanku. The latter fires the killing shot to its eye before the floor beneath it collapses.

SCP-1731 - An Exercise in Futility

SCP-1731 is a refrigerator that has been spray-painted and has a variety of objects attached to its outer surface, including 17 cellphones of various makes and brands, the skeletal remains of several mammals, and a human foot. While it functions as a non-anomalous refrigerator when connected to a power source, it will activate anomalous phenomena when a procedure designated 701-Raenire is performed, the instructions of which are recorded on three handwritten documents designated SCP-1731-1. When attempted to be performed, the procedure will summon an entity that actively disturbs and ceases the ritual meant to summon it, to immense frustration.

SCP-1732 - Septimus Leo

SCP-1732 was Emperor Septimus Severus of the Roman Empire, who was proven through recovered documents and histories to have actually been a male African lion. In spite of his species, Severus was sapient and was able to read and speak fluent Latin, with an accent described as typical of persons originating in the Roman Empire's provinces in central northern Africa. His reign was marked by a series of military campaigns to consolidate Imperial authority in the Roman Empire's provinces, increased persecution of Christians, and a brief revival of interest in the cult of the Egyptian goddess Bastet.

SCP-1733 - Season Opener

SCP-1733 is a digital recording of a 2010-2011 NBA season opening game between the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat. The recording's anomalous properties manifest through repeated playbacks, as the recorded entities have been observed to retain memory of previous iterations, developing a burgeoning awareness of their existence. They subsequently divided themselvess into different religious factions to appease whatever force was doing this to them, largely through sacrificing the players.

Closed Circle: Nobody in the area of the recording can leave.
Dirty Coward: As of playback 65 onwards, both sets of teams, coaches, and their staff barricade themselves in the off-screen player's areas and let the crowds of panicked fans fend for themselves … that is until the Faithkeepers break in to start sacrificing the players in hopes of escape.
Driven to Suicide: In playback 112, quite a few people leap from the balcony section of the arena within the first ten minutes.
"Groundhog Day" Loop: SCP-1733 is a recording of a 2010-2011 NBA match between the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat at TD Garden. The catch is that everyone becomes increasingly aware of their situation with each playback. At first it manifests as a kind of mild intuition, which allows the players to keep the game at 0-0 for a while, but then it becomes an increasing sense of déjà vu. Some of the players claim to have had dreams of what's going to happen in the game. After 45 playbacks, the people realize what's happening and begin trying to escape. Things go downhill from there.
Human Sacrifice: The Faithkeepers ritualistically murder some of the players to appease whatever force is keeping them trapped. When that doesn't work, they try to move up to children.
Last Stand: In the second to last playback, the people of "Section 320" wage one against the Faithkeepers, who are attempting to sacrifice their children.
Medium Awareness: Subverted. The people within the recording are aware that it's looping but do not appear to be aware that they're in a recorded video, which serves to make their situation that much more distressing for them.
Mundane Utility: The Foundation theorizes (at least early on) the phenomenon was intended on being a coaching tool; playthroughs would have a little more cognition each time so coaches could record plays and counters. That doesn't explain how 1733 ended up on a random DVR, however.
No Celebrities Were Harmed: Averted. In a later playback, Paul Pierce and LeBron James are hauled out of the player facilities and sacrificed by the Faithkeepers.
Only Sane Man: A rare example of a group filling this role — the members of Section 320 simply opt to wait out the loops in case something changes, unlike the Faithkeepers (who are Ax-Crazy) and the staff and athletes (who abandon them all to their fates). They also acknowledge some of the more messed up things going on and react accordingly, such as forming a human wall around their section to stop the Faithkeepers from sacrificing their children.
Red Filter of Doom: The final playback just describes the arena being bathed in an ominous red light. All data afterward is expunged.
Reincarnation: All individuals, regardless of injuries or if they're even killed, are shown to be perfectly fine in the next playback.
Religion of Evil: The Faithkeepers are a group that emerge after playback 65. They claim that their imprisonment in TD Garden is because of their society's rampant consumerist culture and begin burning personal objects as offerings, setting up hedonistic orgies of sex and violence, and eventually trying to sacrifice people.
Resurrective Immortality: With every playback, all deaths and injuries are reset to zero.
You Shall Not Pass!: When the Faithkeepers move to try and sacrifice the children, the remaining adults form a human wall between them.

SCP-1734 - The Hole in the Deck

SCP-1734 is a grounded 18th century British frigate with considerable damage to the structure, but relatively little evidence of deterioration. Direct contact with the structure of the vessel appears to be impossible, as matter cannot come closer than 1cm of the walls, floor, ceiling, and supports. SCP-1734-1 is a spatial anomaly localized around a breach in the deck of the ship. When viewed from the deck, this anomaly appears to lead to the interior of the ship, which is flooded. This is in contradiction of several explorations within the vessel, all of which have concluded that while the ship is heavily damaged, the immediate chambers beneath the deck are dry. Extending from the exterior-side of the anomaly is a tentacle belonging to a giant squid, which constantly makes slight movements. If attacked, it will flail rapidly and wildly until it grasps an organism, which it will drag through the anomaly and into the water, wherein death occurs in 5-10 minutes.

Bigger on the Inside: The interior of the spatial anomaly ship goes down at least 70 meters, much further than the height of a regular frigate.
Greed: One of the crewmembers of the original ship brought with them an egg from the mysterious island they came from, hoping to sell it for lots of money. The captain shot him dead for that and threw the egg into the sea as he didn't want to risk whatever could come out of the egg. It hatched anyway.

SCP-1735 - Kind of Impenetrable Barrier

SCP-1735 is a static invisible barrier surrounding a plastic grocery bag on a beach in Newfoundland. The barrier is spherical and extends 0.70 meters in all directions around the bag. Excavation of 1735 has caused sand located within to fall out the bottom, completely emptying the contents of the barrier save for the grocery bag. The bag is currently floating as if affected by light wind currents of varying directions in a persistent manner, during which time it appears to approach the edge of 1735, but never seems to exit.

SCP-1736 - Voice of the Light

SCP-1736 are two classes of human beings who share anomalous beliefs, behaviors, and properties. All instances of SCP-1736-1 and SCP-1736-2 share a common religion, with 1736-1 fulfilling the role of a shaman or priest 1736-2 fulfills the role of followers or acolytes. The theological beliefs that comprise this religion feature a messianic deity that its followers call upon to return and bring the universe out of darkness. 1736-1 will often give sermons in the "voice" of this deity that appear semantically nonsensical, but 1736-2 will accept any such pronouncements as literal gospel and incorporate them into the general belief system. This appears true of all 1736-2 simultaneously, regardless of their contact with 1736-1 or each other. When 1736-1 does this, they emit dangerously high levels of ionizing radiation, and 1732 appear to be able to withstand arbitrary doses of radiation without suffering any adverse effects.

SCP-1737 - The Referee

SCP-1737 is a male humanoid of indeterminate ethnicity known to appear at amateur sporting events as a replacement referee should the original referee be prevented from attending the game. 1737 invariably knows all the rules whatever game it is refereeing, including detailed minutiae and local variations on standard rules. At some point during the game, at least two players will simultaneously suffer potentially life-threatening injuries requiring immediate emergency treatment. The injured players will be loaded into the ambulance by 1737, who will accompany them. The ambulance will drive to the nearest hospital or trauma center and, upon arrival, 1737 will offload a single stretcher bearing an individual appearing to be an amalgamation of the players originally loaded into the ambulance. The resulting creature typically expires within two weeks due to systemic shock and organ rejection.

SCP-1738 - Phobia Sampler

SCP-1738 is a barber's chair manufactured sometime before 1999, with all identifying markings forcibly removed. The back of the chair has a small control panel with a detached typewriter, and keys made from pure ivory with letters from a variety of alphabets. When a human subject is seated in 1738, they will enter a comatose state until they are removed. Once removed, they will report having an intense, specific fear which they did not suffer from prior to using 1738. It is possible to manipulate this effect using the console, with different inputs and use of the keyboard yielding unique, different fears.

SCP-1739 - Obsolete Laptop

SCP-1739 is an indestructible Dell Latitude D800 laptop containing an executable file named "gofetch.exe" on its hard drive, capable of sending people to any point in time after January 1, 2004. The program is also capable of creating entirely new timelines and enabling conversation with them. The animation that plays whenever the program is used, displaying a dog being released from a chain and running after a ball, is revealed to be a representation of an eldritch horror that destroys these alternate timelines.

Alternate Universe: SCP-1739 turns an Eldritch Abomination into a Sealed Evil in a Can by creating one of these. The Abomination is distracted by being allowed to destroy the new universe, keeping it from destroying the universe it's in.
Eldritch Abomination: SCP-1739 is a computer containing a program that has the ability to send people back in time, creating an alternate timeline and allowing communication with the alternate timeline, for a period of 3 hours. Whenever it is used an animation of a dog chasing after a ball and breaking it plays. After using the computer several times it was realized that the animation is actually a symbol representing an Eldritch Abomination (the dog) annihilating the alternate universes (the balls) created by the computer, whose purpose is to keep the thing satisfied, so that it won't decide to break out of its metaphorical chain. The Eldritch Abomination is described as "Something incomprehensibly terrible, in both senses of that word, something that can destroy an entire universe just by passing its shadow over it".
Expendable Alternate Universe: Played for horror. The alternate timelines created when people go back in time are created as sacrifices to an Eldritch Abomination to preserve the 'main' timeline.
Sealed Evil in a Can: SCP-1739 contains an Eldritch Abomination by creating an Alternate Universe. The Abomination is distracted by being allowed to destroy the Alternate Universe, keeping it from destroying the universe it's in.

SCP-1740 - Playgrounded

SCP-1740 is a public playground with standard recreational equipment. The playground's anomalous properties originate from development of SCP-1740-1, animate plastic molds of animals mounted upon a metal spring. Upon nearing 1740, two to three instances of 1740-1 will immediately activate and bounce towards an adolescent that approaches the area and will attempt to prevent them from leaving. Subjects that are compliant with capture will be imprisoned for an indefinite amount of time, but those caught escaping will be forcefully escorted to what appears to be a miniature guillotine incorporated into a swing set, meant to slice a centimeter of flesh off the subject’s finger or toe. SCP-1740-A are three wooden benches situated four meters from 1740. When a person with their own biological child sits on any of these benches, a clear viscous liquid will immediately enclose the subject from beneath the area in which they sit.

SCP-1741 - A Boat Ride

SCP-1741 is a series of anomalies centered around an indestructible two meter tall brick shack (designated SCP-1741-A) in southern Louisiana. The interior of the shack houses an interior volume far greater than the external appearance. The visible contents within largely include SCP-1741-B, aquatic vehicles stylized as different marine animals, all in various states of disrepair. SCP-1741-C is a male humanoid dressed in a zoot suit that possesses no visible anomalous anatomy, which will attempt to sell boat rides to anyone who approaches 1741-A. Should a customer accept a ride, 1741-B will autonomously travel down the river, disappearing from visual surveillance after approximately twenty meters, and transporting the customer to an archipelago located outside of conventional space, each island exhibiting a unique anomalous characteristic.

SCP-1742 - A Squalid Development

SCP-1742 is a contagious phenomenon which takes the form of household filth. When not contained, objects contaminated with this filth (hereafter known as SCP-1742-1) are contagious only through direct contact. Objects coming in contact with an instance of 1742-1 will develop a mark or stain at the point of contact, which will grow rapidly until the object is entirely covered. The filth also appears to adapt to a type appropriate for the object affected, as objects made of ferrous metal will develop rust and oil stains, eating and drinking utensils will become covered in grease and food waste, etc.

SCP-1743 - A Situation Comedy

SCP-1743 is a soundstage that can only be entered via the audience area, as the backstage area cannot be entered or observed by any means. After entering the stage, subjects will perceive nothing beyond it, believing that they are going about their daily lives. SCP-1743-1 is a standard television studio camera that will record the stage non stop when it is active. SCP-1743-2 are humanoids which appear onstage during the active state, each of which resemble various people the subject is acquainted with, mimicking voices, facial hair, and personalities while lacking a complete facial structure, such as eyes or a mouth. SCP-1743-3 is an event in which pre-recorded laughter, applause, and other audible reactions will emanate from the audience section without a speaker system or specific source. This is the only aspect of the active state the subject notices, and the constant reactions often leads to outbursts of frustration, anger, and despair in the onstage subjects, often resulting in suicide.

SCP-1744 - Shell Secrets

SCP-1744 is a shallow pond with a surface that remains relatively placid regardless of wind conditions, only becoming agitated when physical contact is applied. 1744 will periodically produce seashells of the white Baby’s Ear sea snail, referred to as SCP-1744-1, which manifest floating on the surface of the water. While the shells appear undamaged, they will undergo deterioration over time, sometimes to the point of shattering or dissolving. When a shell is destroyed, a clear-speaking voice will emanate from the fragments.

SCP-1745 - Phantom Helicopter

SCP-1745 is a Soviet Mil Mi-24D helicopter that appears to be entirely incorporeal and intangible, traversing through any and all physical obstructions with no observed effect on either body. 1745 also generates noise consistent with a regular aircraft of identical make, despite no clear source of the sound. The helicopter’s presence causes immediate damage in all electrical circuitry within 300m, universally demonstrating signs of severe overheating. Due to its tendency to be drawn to human civilization, its indestructible and intangible nature, and its adverse effect on electronic equipment, the helicopter could potentially instigate a technological collapse of society.

SCP-1746 - Anomalous Weather Pattern

SCP-1746 is an anomalous and extremely violent storm pattern characterized by "pulsations" of dozens or hundreds of simultaneous lightning strikes concurrent with ball lightning, intermittent hurricane-force wind gusts, and electromagnetic phenomena which result far more powerful and destructive capacity than similarly-sized non-anomalous storms. Instances of 1746 are remarkably regular and consistent in shape, speed, size, patterns of wind speed, gusting and barometric pressure, cloud structure and the timing and frequency of lightning strikes. The storm pattern will largely manifest only if a specific act is performed.

SCP-1747 - Going, Going, Gone

SCP-1747 is a square shovel 1.5 meters in length from blade to handle. The blade is composed of iron and yields noticeable signs of oxidation, while the handle is mainly composed of unvarnished maple wood engraved with the initials "H.E." multiple times along its dimensions. If used on any surface normally penetrable by a shovel, the blade will be obstructed by a solid object. Further excavation has shown that human remains will be found directly below the shovel's point of entry, regardless of what was beneath the surface prior to digging. SCP-1747-2 is a corporeal humanoid entity resembling a woman in her late 20s, which manifests within the Hugo Edwards Memorial Cemetery, where 1747 was recovered, for approximately 40 minutes at 9:00 pm every night. During manifestation, 1747-2 will attempt to use 1747 to dig up the graves of Scarlet and Amelia Edwards, removing human carcasses during excavation.

SCP-1748 - The Dragon's Legacy

SCP-1748 is a phenomenon manifesting as a looped audio recording of the "Winter Road" segment of Georgy Sviridov's symphony Snow Storm. The locus for this manifestation is always a device designed for containing audio recordings, including vinyl records, audio cassettes, and compact discs. 1748 reduces in intensity when exposed to a sufficiently-sized audience, and increases intensity when only a few individuals are present. The source of the phenomenon at any given time appears to be immune to damage from sonic vibrations produced by 1748, but the phenomenon will transfer to the nearest suitable object should the object be destroyed.

SCP-1749 - Trans-American Murder Messengers

SCP-1749 is a control pad consisting of an analog screen and a standard keyboard. When a message is typed onto the screen and the "send" button is pressed, genetically identical humanoids in black business suits designated SCP-1749-2 will materialize in populated locations around the continental United States. When all instances have materialized, they will immediately seek out and kill the nearest human by means of gunshot. If an instance is disarmed, it will attempt to bludgeon or strangle the victim to death using nearby objects or its bare hands. Immediately following the murder, the instance will procure and consume a cyanide pill, causing death in 99% of cases.

Cyanide Pill: SCP-1749-2 are Men in Black who appear only to commit murder. After killing someone they kill themselves by taking a cyanide pill. If it fails they carry a backup pill inside one of their molars.
The Men in Black: SCP-1749-2 are Caucasian men between 24 and 36 years old and about 6 and a half feet tall. They dress in black business suits and dress shoes and carry a loaded handgun. When they appear they kill the nearest human being and then commit suicide with a Cyanide Pill.
Terrorists Without a Cause: According to one SCP-1749-2 instance, their goal is to send some sort of message through indiscriminate murders as they find it gets more attention than bombings or shooting sprees.

1750- 1799

SCP-1750 - Jurassic Park

SCP-1750 is a phenomenon wherein petroleum-powered vehicles gain spontaneous animation. The affected vehicles display animal-like behaviors with similarities to crocodiles and birds. While there does not seem to be any underlying pattern or cause behind the phenomenon, it is hypothesized that 1750 is the result of dinosaur-based ectomorphs inhabiting the fuel within the vehicles.

SCP-1751 - Event Perception

SCP-1751 is an entire year that has been rendered a fixed point in space-time, the information of which can only be perceived in Latin. 1751 is centered around the Mediterranean Sea, a location where no known major historical events took place during the year. When considered and directly thought about by any sapient, language capable organism, their thought processes invariably translate into Latin. The effects of 1751's manipulation of thought processes have included nausea, headache, loss of focus, and difficulty communicating, though these symptoms are considered a product of the subject spontaneously experiencing a shift in perception. Prolonged exposure to 1751 has resulted in the degradation of Wernicke's area in the cerebral cortex, resulting in a cessation of understanding of all languages except Latin.

SCP-1752 - Helpline

SCP-1752 is a static point in space from which voices periodically manifest. These voices are identical to sounds produced by non-anomalous means at their point of origin and are audible by anyone standing nearby. Persons hearing the sounds produced by 1752 will describe them as perfectly clear and understandable, and as being spoken in the language and dialect with which they are most comfortable. SCP-1752-2 is an object, collection of objects, and/or the associated actions which enable a person to project sound through to 1752. The entities that speak through 1752 (SCP-1752-3), of which there are currently 14 distinctly identified instances, speak with the same voice, thus identification is possible only through behavioral recognition.

SCP-1753 - Vertigo

SCP-1753 is an oil painting of the El Capitan rock formation in Yosemite National Park, with the phrase "Time to fly" scrawled in permanent marker over the vertical rock face. When a human capable of sight observes the painting and comprehends the written phrase, they will activate 1753's anomalous effects. Subjects experience a strong sense of vertigo that subsides within approximately thirty seconds. Twelve to fourteen hours later, the subject begins to perceive any drop as a vertical cliff face of approximately 2,000 m in height. Should an affected individual jump from a perceived cliff, they will hover in the air for approximately thirty seconds before impacting the ground with force comparable to that expected of terminal velocity.

Brown Note: A painting that causes its viewers to initially suffer feelings of vertigo, and afterwards begin visualizing drops as being extremely high cliffs.
Driven to Suicide: Herbert ███████, who was presumably the SCP's creator, committed suicide and left behind a suicide note stating:
the sky's calling
time to fly
Your Mind Makes It Real: Anyone who sees the painting and comprehends the phrase written on it ("time to fly") begins to see even a slight drop (such as a curb or a stair) as a cliff face of 2000 m height. If they go off that drop, they will hit the bottom with the same amount of force as someone jumping from that height.

SCP-1754 - Unskulling Skull

SCP-1754 is an animate assembly composed of smoothed, bleached human bone and other calcified materials, including two white wheels, two thin, wiry, clawed appendages, and a white clay smoking pipe gripped between the teeth. The center of 1754 houses a human skull consistent in size and development with that of an adult male between the ages of 35 and 50. 1754 is capable of moving on any solid surface at any angle, using its wheels and clawed appendages in the manner of a wheelchair. Approximately every 1.5 hours, the entity’s pipe (SCP-1754-1) releases a cohesive cloud of opaque white smoke. If 1754 is in the presence of one or more unprotected vertebrates, the smoke moves to surround the closest one (designated SCP-1754-2). When 1754-2 has been fully surrounded, the smoke darkens for roughly five seconds before lightening again and dissipating, whereupon 1754-2 has been found to lack a skull. When not removing skulls, 1754 is sentient and capable of speech, the sound of which originates from the geometric center of its cranium. It speaks in a voice resembling an enthusiastic, middle-aged man living in the mid-1960s, discussing then-contemporary topics such as classic automobiles, female celebrities, and its son's involvement in the Vietnam War.

SCP-1755 - Cotton Blight

SCP-1755 is a species of worm not related to any extant species, which are hermaphroditic and consume only cotton fibers. Visually, the worms resemble thin fibers, and their cuticles are capable of appearing in a wide range of colors. If exposed to a cotton garment, 1755 will consume a single thread and reproduce parthenogenetically, producing a new instance of itself with cuticle color matching the consumed thread. The process is extremely efficient, a single specimen being capable of converting an entire shirt in about two weeks. When consuming a garment, 1755 will link to each other, making their presence difficult to detect by visual or tactile examination.

SCP-1756 - At the Movies

SCP-1756 is a Panasonic RV31K Region 1 DVD player manufactured in 1999, capable of accepting and producing its primary effect with all 12 cm optical discs regardless of format or region coding. When powered on, connected to a television, and has an optical disc played, 1756 will display a recording appearing to be a 6-11 segment from the American television program Siskel and Ebert at the Movies. If the disc inserted is of a motion picture reviewed on the original series, the content of the review will be identical to the review featured on the program. When the contents of the disc is a movie released after the critics' deaths, a different form of visual recording such as a TV broadcast, or not a visual recording at all, an original segment will be produced by 1756, in which Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert will review the encoded material as if it were a theatrically-released motion picture.

As Himself: In the review of footage of ABC News coverage of 9/11, both critics marvel at the number of on-air personnel playing themselves (this is because they review anything inserted into the SCP in a DVD, whether it be music, video games or other non-movie content as if it were a movie).
Dull Surprise: Gene Siskel states that the male Commander Shepard gives a wooden delivery of his lines in the review produced when a Mass Effect DVD is inserted into the SCP.
Questionable Casting: In-Universe, Siskel finds it amusing that a "film" (that consists of 9/11 news coverage) would "cast" the Governor of Texas as the U.S. President.
Recursive Canon: One test on it was being shown the tribute episode for Siskel following his death.

SCP-1757 - Recorded Curio

SCP-1757 is a worn Sony VHS tape containing 96 minutes and 12 seconds of footage, with the label "Just Curious" written with a blue felt pen. When viewed on any device capable of playing the tape, 1757 contains footage of a man filmed against a white wall and looking directly at the camera. If the viewer takes interest or intensely ponders 1757 or its origin, the man in the footage (hereafter SCP-1757-A) appears to take a similar interest towards the people watching him, turning his head, changing expressions, and following movement with his eyes. Those who instigate these events report a constant feeling of being spied on, as well as trouble sleeping soundly. Occasionally, these feelings manifest as aggression towards the tape or strong anxiety regarding 1757-A. Affected subjects are soon after assaulted at a time when they cannot seek immediate help, ending with them being brutally mutilated and bleeding out.

SCP-1758 - O Mio Babbino Caro

SCP-1758 is a violin constructed in the late 1920s in the Italian city of Florence. 1758's primary anomalous effect triggers whenever it is played by a man. When this criteria is met, all humans capable of hearing the violin immediately cease actions, and begin to focus their attention on the subject playing the instrument until finished. After the subject has ceased playing, all individuals who heard the music will begin to loudly congratulate them, declaring them one of the finest musicians of all time regardless of their actual skill.

SCP-1759 - "Lovely Lucy"

SCP-1759 is a 1942 Douglas A-20 Havoc bomber with a painting that features a blonde woman on its left side. The text "Lovely Lucy" is written below her, and the aircraft has been nicknamed after the artwork. Lucy displays her anomalous properties when an individual makes contact with her artwork, upon which they will become unresponsive for several seconds, then appear to begin weeping and fervently demand they be allowed to fly her. Upon sitting in the pilot's seat, the affected individual displays sudden knowledge of basic flight procedures despite lacking any previous training, after which Lucy will take off and fly a total of 16 to 32 kilometers. Recordings during flight have showcased the pilot talking to themselves after entering an ecstatic state when in flight, which gradually moves to solemnity, to anger, and a repeat of the weeping fit they expressed upon their original contact with the aircraft. After flying the standard 32 km, Lucy will engage the auto-pilot system and return to the hangar. Upon her return, the subject in the pilot seat is discovered dead by seemingly spontaneous bullet wounds.

Beware the Nice Ones: "Lucy" is genial and polite to even those who don't make contact with the artwork. Except the project researcher who intended to send more D-class up to most likely perish. Her reaction was to have one of the D-class grab a guards gun and shoot at him. Said researcher wisely requested someone else take over.
Forever War: It seems to be locked in one with a ghostly group of German fighter planes.
Haunted Technology: An old World War II bomber plane with all but confirmed sentience.

SCP-1760 - Casket Garden

SCP-1760 is a collection of 15 black pine coffins that annually rise from the ground at noon on November 15th, in a wooded area outside Minsk, Belarus. Upon rising from the ground, the coffins (SCP-1760-1 through -15) are sealed and contain a full set of human remains that vary with each manifestation. The remains are always Caucasian and dressed in regional funeral attire. At midnight on November 20th, each coffin sinks into the ground regardless of whether or not it has been disturbed. Excavation attempts to locate them upon submersion have shown that the subject stops 3m below the surface during the remainder of the year.

Mad Scientist: Pyotr was a mortician and scientist who carried out experiments regarding long term chemical preservation of human remains, as well as chemically induced reanimation and regeneration of such remains. This is the source of the animated remains that appear in the SCP-1760-16 coffin every six years.
When the Clock Strikes Twelve: At noon on November 15th, fifteen coffins filled with human remains mysteriously rise out of the ground in Site 84. At midnight the same day they sink into the ground again and disappear.

SCP-1761 - The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams

SCP-1761 is a Caucasian man appearing to be approximately 30 years of age, who speaks English with an American accent. 1761 claims to be the "Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams", a nation-state allegedly located in North America. While no evidence of such a nation exists, 1761 can provide a lengthy, self-consistent oral history of the country if prompted, also providing currency and documentation for it. 1761 has a very limited number of responses to questions posited directly to it, mostly concerning the alleged history of the Republic, its alleged geographical features, and its desirability as a tourism destination. If asked more than 10 consecutive questions to which it does not have a prepared statement, a humanoid entity (designated SCP-1761-2) will appear in the nearest unobserved area to 1761, which will claim to be a diplomat of the Republic likely intended to escort 1761 away from the questioner.

Fictional Country: The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams
Hammerspace: He can pull currency and other objects from nowhere.
Nations as People: SCP-1761 is a man who thinks he is a country and has a number of abilities based on being a country.
People's Republic of Tyranny: It is implied that The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams may have become one of these.

SCP-1762 - Where The Dragons Went

SCP-1762 was a plain 32×20×26 cardboard box spray-painted silver on the exterior and interior, marked with the words "Here Be Dragons" in permanent marker. 1762 would infrequently open and initiate a release of SCP-1762-2, along with a large amount of black smoke that quickly dissipated. 1762-2, the beings that emerged from 1762, bore resemblance to origami models of various types of dragons. After exiting, 1762-2 would fly together in large groups and interact playfully with any nearby personnel and each other. They hailed from a mystical land known as "Fantasy", and did so until the Jabberwocky Event, which culminated in a war in that ended with the box's words changing to "Here Were Dragons". Eight years later, during which no anomalous properties were shown, the box was reported to be emitting purple smoke before falling to the floor, dislodging a chunk of amethyst with the words "One last time" carved into it, as well as a leather-bound book detailing all the long-lost creatures of "Fantasy". Forty minutes later, the box ceased all activity, disintegrating upon touch.

All There in the Manual: Right before dying for good, the box expelled a book that contained information on all the creatures that lived there.
Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: The paper dragons all come in various bright and vibrant colors.
Despair Event Horizon: The dragons slowly start to lose hope as it becomes clearer and clearer to them that their beloved creators aren't coming back for them.
Dwindling Party: As the box loses power, the number of dragons sending messages to the Foundation dwindles until the penultimate message is delivered by a single dragon who is so badly weakened that it drags itself along the ground, unable to fly, and dies on arrival.
Hope Spot: Towards the end of the war, the box seems to reassemble itself... only for the message to change from "Here Be Dragons" to "Here Were Dragons". If that weren't enough, the final message tells us that the box's last act was to provide the Foundation with a gem and a book of Fantasy's creatures before disintigrating, erasing any possibility that the creatures could come back.
Imagination-Based Superpower: Claimed to be the end result of this trope, brought to life by a child's imagination.
The Magic Goes Away: A slow, painful and tragic example. The creatures of Fantasy were already slowly losing their powers due to the loss of their creators and ended up going to war. The Foundation was unable to help them, as their creators could not be located. Eventually, the creatures ended up slaying each other and all they could do was leave the Foundation with a few parting messages before finally dying.
Our Dragons Are Different: The most prominent residents of the box are tiny, friendly origami dragons of various different colors. Turns out, this is just the form they can take in the real world. In Fantasy, they look more like traditional dragons.
Our Giants Are Bigger: The dragons claim that giants also dwell within their world, but unlike the dragons, they cannot manifest in our world in paper form. They also become more hostile towards the dragons when it starts becoming clear that the people who made them are not coming back for them.
Shoulder-Sized Dragon: Played with — the dragons are adorable, tiny little origami things, but their true forms in Fantasy are said to be much bigger. Fortunately, they're also friendly.

SCP-1763 - Found Space Theatre

SCP-1763 is an interdimensional portal located in a basement West 38th Street in New York City The interior of 1763 consists of a wooden proscenium-arch-type stage with two sets of curtains designated SCP-1763-1, regularly used by a company designated SCP-1763-A. This company will perform skits on this stage on a monthly basis, with limited runs during the last full week of the month from Monday to Saturday. The members of 1763-A show numerous anomalous properties, such as incorporealism, being entirely skeletal, possessing two sets of arms, and even appears to be a Neanderthal. The pieces performed by 1763-A vary widely. Approximately one quarter of all performances correspond to existing plays.

SPC-1764 - DARD Information Restrictions Apply

SPC-1764 is a small metallic disc constructed primarily of titanium, which must be maintained in cryogenic suspension within a vat of liquid nitrogen. Should the temperature of the object exceed -210 degrees, auditory and visual alarms will go off to warn all personnel in the area to retreat to a safe distance until a specialized On-Site Response Team can be assembled to restore safe operating parameters. The object is actually an SCP that entered a spatial anomaly linking two localized parallel universes, and has been held in the custody of an alternate Foundation, known as the Deviant Artifacts Research Division of the Unified Empire, ever since. A secondary anomalous property of the object is that any documentation written about it is altered into one of this universe's "Supernatural Phenomenon Case Files".

SCP-1765 - Sisters

SCP-1765, a particularly ironic anomaly, are three semi-corporeal entities which typically manifest as vaguely humanoid, off-white silhouettes. 1765 display the capacity to willfully weaken the structure of reality in their immediate presence, allowing them a limited-but-potent control over temporal and physical distortions within a substantial range. The trio are capable of speech (speaking in three differently toned voices, described by listeners as feminine), and seem to possess individual and consistent personalities. The trio were trapped in objects acquired after a raid on the Wanderer's Library. Upon their release, the sisters promptly took over their containment site, subjecting all of the personnel to a series of random, potentially deadly, never-ending experiments of their own design.

Affably Evil: SCP-1765-1 speaks politely and is generally well-mannered, but still performs torturous experiments on Area-37's personnel.
And I Must Scream: How else would you describe the fates of Area-37; humans trapped in a facility cut off from the rest of the Universe, being used as the Cosmic Playthings of a trio of Mad Gods who torture, kill and revive them with no hope of it ever stopping, the Foundation powerless to do anything other than accept whatever "data" they send them. It becomes even scarier when one realizes that in the event that they could just walk out and inflict this fate onto the rest of the world if they felt like it.
Batman Gambit: The Sisters were not so much discovered by the SCP Foundation as it was unleashed onto them by The Serpent's Hand, who had intentionally leaked information about them to the Foundation so that they could raid their facility and take the anomalous objects — a loom, a pin and a glass eye — that supposedly summons them.
Composite Character: Word of God describes them as being based simultaneously on the Fates and the Gray Sisters of Greek Mythology, with a touch of the Three Witches, who themselves are based on the former.
Fate Worse than Death: Area-37's personnel are subjected to their experiments, which are often repeated for hundreds of times. Even death is no release, as they are capable of rewinding time and force the test subjects to redo the experiment.
Ironic Hell: The Serpent's Hand seem to have unleashed the Sisters for this express purpose. The SCP Foundation's job was to take the supernatural and lock it away from the rest of the world where they can experiment on them and put them under a microscope. Now Area-37 is under the mercy of supernatural entities who experiment on them. Forever.
Mad God: They are a trio of Reality Warpers who act with no real rhyme or reason beyond personal amusement, and saying that what they find amusing being unusual and horrifying doesn't even begin to cover it.
Mad Scientist: They offered themselves to perform experiments on The Foundation's behalf, but given their experiment results tend to go into Straw Nihilist territory, it's unclear whether they're doing it strictly For Science! or For the Evulz.
Evil Brit: SCP-1765-2 speaks with a cockney accent and performs the most brutal of the experiments.
Reality Warper: They can warp space, time, and reality itself, and have turned Area-37 and its inhabitants as their personal playground.
The Quiet One: SCP-1765-3 only speaks single words.
Unwanted Assistance: Needless to say, The Foundation isn't exactly thrilled of their experiments, but the best they can do is let them do their experiments, to occupy and contain them.
The Weird Sisters: Each of the three has a specific personality and voice, which is described as feminine.
You Can't Fight Fate: The conclusion of many of their "experiments". Appropriate, since they are based on the three Fates of Greek myth.

SCP-1766 - Radar Signature

SCP-1766 is a glitch visually resembling a Cessna model 172 personal aircraft that will manifest in air traffic control radar monitoring systems, particularly in high traffic or areas across southeastern United States airspace. Once 1766’s effect activates, it will begin transmitting an emergency transponder code and moving in irregular flight patterns. The danger in this arises when pilots initiate emergency evasive maneuvers upon being notified by ATC, which puts the aircraft at high risk of mid-air collision with another aircraft.

SCP-1767 - An Agent Of The Shark Punching Center

SCP-1767 is an agent believed to be working for the Shark Punching Center, an organization of similar structure and purpose to the Foundation which deals with physically striking sharks and animals related to sharks. Physically, 1767 is a mutilated aquatic creature with a boneless skeleton made of a tough, elastic cartilage, and dorsal fins large enough to cover the entirety of both sides of the body, which terminate in three flexible digits. A metallic construct resembling a helmet with neurotrophic electrodes has been crudely attached to both sides of 1767's skull. Research so far concludes that said device is nonfunctional, and further study has been suspended due to the potential health risks that would result from attempting to remove it.

SCP-1768 - Floor Games

SCP-1768 is a phenomenon that affects floors and other walking surfaces. Surfaces affected appear to follow their own set of rules, which appear consistent with various informal games throughout human society. Failure to follow these rules results in a penalty delivered by the instance in question, ranging from minor injury to severe maiming. Upon removal from their original locations, any piece of an instance left in contact with a floor or walking surface will grow to replace the aforementioned surface. No instance will expand larger than the current room it is in, though the mechanism used to determine these boundaries is unknown.

SCP-1769 - The Beloved

SCP-1769 is a 14-line section of non-functional script capable of infecting certain websites, specifically those with free user accounts and communication between users. The script itself consists of a 14-line English Sonnet, which itself exhibits no anomalous properties until introduced into the page source of a website that allows for free user accounts and communication between users. After accumulating approximately 225 minutes of total exposure to such a website, subjects will become infected. They will begin to emit radio waves consistent with a WLAN signal, allowing them to access the internet without a technological medium and communicate with other infected individuals. They further refuse to communicate in non-internet based methods, becoming hostile if forced to.

SCP-1770 - The Maker of Chains

SCP-1770 is an animate mass of steel chains in a humanoid shape, which appears to possess human-level intelligence. 1770 is capable of ambulation and speech, though it will rarely initiate conversation and remains in a prolonged state of apathy. It previously showed the ability to remove chains from its body and attach them to human beings, which does not appear to reduce its mass or the total number of chains composing its body. The process revolves around the anomaly inserting chains into the victim’s body, via orifices and penetration of the skin. 1770 then replaces the victim’s flesh with chains, often shaping the result into an identical humanoid shape.

SCP-1771 - Seasonal House

SCP-1771 is a series of houses that cycle through a set number of entities that reside within each house. The entities are universally friendly to any humanoid figure, often inviting them inside for various activities. The entities are aware of those in other houses, but cannot physically interact with each other as they are unable to leave an area spanning 10 meters in radius around their respective house. If a resident of 1771 offers their house key to an outsider and the key is accepted, the outsider will take the place of the resident.

SCP-1772 - "Egg" Allergy

SCP-1772 is a 1983 portable Spanish-English Dictionary with flaws not present in any printings released by the publisher. The dictionary’s primary effect occurs whenever an individual uses it to translate a word previously unknown to them. Upon activation, subjects will become allergic to any word used in the translation within the book. Upon hearing, reading, or writing the selected word, affected subjects will immediately exhibit symptoms of anaphylaxis, such as rashes, itching of the eyes, swelling of the face and throat, and difficulty breathing.

SCP-1773 - Gumi Beeps

SCP-1773 is a species of Tardigrade with a life cycle of only two weeks. Upon birth, hundreds of individuals begin to cannibalize their siblings until only the strongest remain. The remaining individuals quickly mature to macroscopic size, reaching roughly 2 centimeters in length. After mating, a male instance will die and be eaten by the female, which gives live birth to 200-300 offspring. Individuals are colored brightly and give off enticing, fruity aromas, with skin coloration including blue, pink, green, orange, and yellow, matching the fruity scent. Despite this, they taste bitter and are mildly poisonous to most higher lifeforms, including humans.

SCP-1774 - The Proof's Equipment

SCP-1774 are seven pieces of audio and video equipment formerly used by "The Proof", an amateur paranormal investigation agency. Each object acts as a container for a unique spectral entity, of which are sapient and only capable of being detected and interacted with using their respective 1774 instance, as those inhabiting cameras can only be seen, whereas one in a radio can only be heard. The data recorded by 1774 varies greatly from what is actually occurring, such as the manipulation of objects in a room, flickering of lights, and alterations in the behavior of recorded individuals when none are occurring.

SCP-1775 - Retail Specters

SCP-1775 is an abandoned department store in Detroit, Michigan, closed in 1979 and showing wear and tear typical of urban decay. 1775's anomalous properties manifest between the hours of 09:00 and 20:00 every day of the week excluding Sunday. During this time, the damage to its interior will be repaired, restoring it to near perfect condition. SCP-1775-X are a series of humanoid spectral entities that manifest within the interior of 1775 during its active period. 1775-X follow a set pattern of behavior during all events, and attempts to interact with or directly alter their behavior patterns have failed due to their intangible nature. After 20:00 hours, 1775-X will vanish and the interior of 1775 will once again resemble its inactive state.

SCP-1776 - The Patriot's Folly

SCP-1776 is a machine-sewn nylon flag of the former Soviet nation of Yugoslavia. The anomalous effects of the flag are exhibited when it is viewed by an individual who has served in their nation’s armed forces. The person viewing 1776 will perceive it not as a Yugoslav flag, but as the flag of their own nation.The subject will further perceive that any other individuals in the presence of 1776, whether they themselves are affected or not, are enemies of the entity their nation who intend to destroy or desecrate it. Once affected, the individual will become highly aggressive and will use any means within their disposal to seize possession of the flag, attempting to make their way to a highly visible public place and display 1776, spreading the effect.

SCP-1777 - Kings Cave

SCP-1777 is a specter that is known to appear within Scotland's King's Cave (SCP-1777-2). It manifests as a tall man dressed in rusty plate armor of a variety common in 15th century England, the word "Veritas" having been carved across the hilt. 1777 appears to manifest upon the presence of any direct descendant of the old kings of England. When such a person enters 1777-2, the specter studies them and recites a phrase in Latin before vanishing.

SCP-1778 - Valor

SCP-1778 is the only known spaceship of the Soviet Soyuz 7K-L2 series, placed in orbit in 1966 as part of a special program developed and financed by the Russian Main Intelligence Directorate. 1778 currently remains in low Earth orbit and has been contacted from different points of the planet’s surface through brief radio exchanges with unknown parties. When the ship passes over the Prime Meridian, it decelerates through unknown means and adopts an orbit that takes it in the opposite direction. During this period, 1778 accelerates until it reaches an estimated speed of 0.09c with transmissions of anomalous nature during these 0.3 seconds being emitted from it.

SCP-1779 - Dime Consumers

SCP-1779 is a species of nocturnal reptile which generally grow to an average length of .4 meters long and are scaleless in appearance, with feathery manes around their shoulders. Their primary anomalous feature is that their diet consists exclusively of metallic currency. When nesting, 1779 will gather coinage into large, bowl-shaped piles in secluded areas. The reptiles have proven to be extremely territorial of their nests, loudly and violently attacking anything that attempts to steal a coin from their hoard. 1779 flourish in cities where their primary food sources are available, nesting in crevices under the foundations of buildings or disused maintenance tunnels.

SCP-1780 - The Temporal Anomalies Department

SCP-1780 is a plastic office nameplate formerly owned by the chairperson of the Foundation's "Temporal Anomalies Department". 1780 remains inert unless placed into an appropriately sized nameplate mount. Upon activation, it manifests a standing temporospatial anomaly behind the nearest door within 3m, designated SCP-1780-1. 1780-1 appears to be an office on Site-17's Euclid objects experimentation wing. Testing has revealed that multiple instances of 1780-1 can manifest simultaneously. What effect, if any, the two manifestations have on one another has yet to be determined. Other objects or personnel left within 1780-1 after the entrance is closed are no longer present when it is reopened, and are to be considered irretrievable.

SCP-1781 - The Moonlight Theater

SCP-1781 is the "Moonlight Theater", a drive-in theater located in Indiana. Every other night, at dusk, the theater’s anomalous properties will activate. The lights will dim, the door to the projection booth will remain closed, and the projector within the booth will begin playing a random film, with no restrictions on the genre or length of film shown. While the selected film shown can vary wildly, the single constant throughout all observed showings is the presence of Hugo Weaving in some role previously filled by another actor, actress, or even a prop. Often times the inclusions are immediately recognizable, while in others the role may be very small.

SCP-1782 - Tabula Rasa

SCP-1782 is a room in an abandoned apartment complex located in Kiev, Ukraine. 1782's interior instantaneously changes in appearance every three days at 03:12 AM. The interior is usually furnished with typical household objects, although the room and objects are aged significantly with signs of heavy use. 1782 occasionally manifests what appear to be sapient entities and fauna which partake in various random and incomprehensible events. It is speculated that the reason why these events occur is because the apartment is haunted by the spirit of a reality warping humanoid whose mother had it aborted.

And I Must Scream: Its mother is fused with a septic tank and forced to live out eternity in a pocket dimensional hole.
Fetus Terrible: Namely, a Reality Warper that was aborted before it could come to term. The entity haunts the apartment where it was aborted, and comes back to life at dusk. Common headcanon is that it is the Witch Child in an alternate universe. The author states that it was supposed to be part of a religious reality bender's plans in bringing about the Second Advent, but the mother having an abortion derailed those plans.
Rule of Symbolism: The strange things that happen in the apartment are symbolic of the abortion.
- A disembodied female voice is heard repeating "Shakes me, makes me lighter" — shaking referring to the physical motion of the abortion, and she becomes lighter without a fetus to carry.
- An elderly human feeds itself to a group of kakapo. Mothers are expected to make sacrifices for their children, but the unborn reality bender's mother decided to abort it, and it punished her for that.
Sinister Scraping Sound: The sound of metal scraping or grinding against metal can occasionally be heard in the apartment.

SCP-1783 - Cardboard Cutout Dog

SCP-1783 is an entity resembling a fawn pug composed entirely of cut-out segments of cardboard. 1783 is fully animate and capable of locomotion via an unknown mode of transit similar to teleportation. It behaves almost identically to non-anomalous members of its breed in terms of seeking food, expelling waste, barking, and panting to reduce internal heat. When not given the nutritional minimum of 720 calories per day, the entity will express discomfort and excrete SCP-1783-A, an object identical to a Polaroid photograph that depicts regular dog feces. 1783 will play normally with humans in its presence, and has normal canine reactions to other dogs and cats, but all non-primate mammals demonstrate intense fear of 1783, whining and attempting to escape its presence. When exposed to someone with Type-B or Type-AB blood, the dog will turn rabid and attack them.

Animal Jingoism: It shows anger and aggression to all cats, like most dogs do.
Animals Hate Him: All normal, non-primate animals are terrified of it. It is believed that this is because SCP-1783 acts like a normal dog, but doesn't produce any scent.
Berserk Button: It turns rabid within 100m of anybody with type-B blood antigens (Type-B or Type-AB blood), attacking them and those in the way, and will stay like that until 30 hours after removal. The Serpent's Hand speculates that it's trying to create a master for itself by turning a person into cardboard, and only finds those of B-type antigens suitable.
Bizarre Alien Biology: It's made out entirely of cardboard, but still eats, barks, bites and expels waste like a normal dog. Instead of feces, it defecates polaroid photos of dog poop. Its bites also carry an unidentified bacterium that turns people into cardboard.
Body Horror: Anyone bitten by it contracts a bacterium that slowly turns them into a flat, cardboard-like substance over a period of 65 hours, starting from the wound and spreading to the rest of their body.
Killer Rabbit: It's a cute and docile cardboard cutout pug that goes rabid when those of type-B or -AB blood are near it, and anyone bitten by it contracts a disease that turns them into cardboard. The Serpent's Hand lost eight members to it before another four (that had been bitten) decided to give it to the Foundation.
Nigh-Invulnerable: The Serpent's Hand note that came with it mentioned that they attempted to destroy it, but couldn't.
Paper People: It's a pug made out of cardboard segments.
Precious Puppy: When it's not around anyone with type-B or type-AB blood, it acts like how a normal dog would and tends to play normally with humans in its presence.
Stop Motion: It's noted to move in a manner similar to stop-motion, instantly shifting from a prone to a standing position, or 1-3 cm in the direction of its orientation.

SCP-1784 - Skywriter Sloths

SCP-1784 is a genetically engineered species of sloth with a ridged, segmented gas bladder protruding from its dorsal abdomen. This bladder is filled with hydrogen gas formed from water electrolysis, enabling the sloths to remain buoyant in mid-air, as well as control the rate at which they elevate and descend. 1784 propel themselves through the air at roughly .4 meters per second by expelling flatus of an unknown molecular composition which causes coherent clouds to spontaneously form when introduced to air and direct sunlight. 1784 can physically interact with these clouds — as well as clouds that occur naturally — as easily as they can interact with solid objects, and are adept at forming habitable structures resembling forests or nests from these clouds. When in groups, they can be commanded to form English messages by sky-writing, although due to their slow speed and normal sloth intelligence, they have difficulty coordinating any message longer than ten characters.

Solid Clouds: The sloths can fart out clouds. They can subsequently interact with the clouds as if they were solid objects, including forming them into forests and nests.
Living Gasbag: The sloths use electrolysis to break down water into hydrogen and oxygen. They store the hydrogen in an internal bladder and use it to float in the air. They store the oxygen and use it to supplement their breathing at high altitudes.

SCP-1785 - A Rose By Any Other Name

SCP-1785 is an effect surrounding Vivian, a cultivar of red rose bushes. Rebecca can only be referred to by a single feminine name at one time, with no name ever being repeated after its initial use. The effect renders it similarly impossible to refer to Amanda via pronouns. The effect manifests in all manners of verbal or physical communication exclusively, as observers are able to mentally refer to Shelby as whatever they choose, only forced to use a name if they verbally identify it.

SCP-1786 - A Rowboat

SCP-1786 is an electric coffee percolator that cannot be turned off or disassembled, which also demonstrates two notable anomalous properties; one visual, one physical. When observed by any subject, 1786 has the physical appearance of a rowboat with oars suffering from a lack of maintenance and consistent water damage. Despite its altered appearance, 1786's physical nature is still an electric coffee percolator, and it performs the designated functions of such a device. Through an unknown process, 1786 continuously condenses atmospheric moisture into its bottom chamber, brewing the collected liquid into non-anomalous medium roast coffee.

SCP-1787 - The Dog Whittler

SCP-1787 is an Italian man, approximately 65-70 years old, who receives one package per week regardless of his current location. These packages are markedonly with his name, a breed of domesticated dog, a gender, and a return address. Inside each package is a cube of biological material, largely consisting of undifferentiated flesh covered with fur, designated SCP-1787-B. The cubes are used by 1787 as a sculpting medium similar to clay, using a variety of bladed instruments to carve a dog in accordance with the desired specifications written on the package. Depending on the size of the dog and the purported quality of the 1787-B instance, this can take between 6 hours and 5 days.

SCP-1788 - The Adults

SCP-1788 is a biological transformative process of unknown origin. Prepubescent humans subjected to 1788 becomes an instance of SCP-1788-1. On reaching adulthood, 1788-1 will display predatory behavior towards prepubescent humans. They will typically settle in a large urban center, find a form of white-collar employment, then begin tracking prepubescents in the area. Approximately once every six months, an instance will attempt to abduct one of the prepubescents it has been tracking and take them to a remote or otherwise unobserved location, where it is subjected to 1788 and turned into another instance of 1788-1.

Berserk Button: Despite fulfilling many of the stereotypical traits of pedophiles, the accusation of them being such infuriates and disgusts them.
Bizarre Alien Psychology: They're implied to be intelligent beyond human comprehension, violently shun contact with other members of their race while also kidnapping children to expand their numbers, and appear to all be violent narcissists.
Expy: If the captured instance's boasting is true, then they're almost a dead ringer for the Pak Protectors .
Fat Bastard: In adult form SCP-1788-1 are all extremely obese, weighing 150-200 kilograms (330-440 lbs.). Despite this, they're all incredibly fast and strong.
Multiarmed And Dangerous: Adult forms of SCP-1788-1 appear to be extremely obese human beings with two extra arms located below their main ones.
Transhuman: They are genetically human, but their bones are reinforced with heavy metals and their muscles have been interwoven with carbon nanotubes, giving them superhuman strength, speed and durability. Possibly Subverted, as it's implied that they're what humans are ''supposed'' to look like upon reaching physical maturity.
Übermensch: They see normal human society as composed of "children" and consider themselves to be the true state of humanity.

SCP-1789 - Irate Finger

SCP-1789 is an enlarged humanoid finger severed at the base, both sapient and capable of telepathic communication. In interviews, the appendage has demonstrated megalomania and general hostility towards Foundation personnel. SCP-1789-1 is a golden liquid of unidentified composition which hemorrhages from the finger at a variable rate, which has been found to be a powerful hallucinogen. Upon consumption, users begin to experience hallucinations which often include the empowerment of the user, approval from the user's peers, and success in all undertakings. When 1789 communicates, any demands it makes have anomalous compulsory properties. The compulsion is weak and can be resisted with extremely minor concentration, but the potency is drastically increased via consuming 1789-1.

SCP-1790 - Layla

SCP-1790 is an accumulation of human memories and an associated personality, capable of preserving its existence after death by transmitting itself into the mind of a newborn infant. Currently inhabiting the body of a Hispanic woman, 33 years of age, interviews have determined that all instances of 1790 possess full recall of the known memories and personality traits of each prior instance and share similar personality traits. The means by which 1790 transmits to a new instance at the time of death is unknown, but it appears to occur at the exact time when brain activity ceases in its current instance. When in a position of leadership, 1790 will form an occult society idolizing mass murder and ritualized human sacrifice, eventually organizing and carrying out a large-scale covert campaign of ritualized murder targeted against the general population within its area of influence.

Cult: In every single one of its reincarnations, SCP-1790 always starts a cult idolizing mass murder and ritualized self-sacrifice. If SCP-1790 completely depopulates an entire area, it will just move on else where and start a new one.
Reincarnation: SCP-1790's reincarnation process is described entirely in pseudo-scientific terms. SCP-1790 itself is described as a collection of associated human memories and personality (instead of, say, a person), and the process which it reincarnates is described as these memories and personality taking over the mind of a newborn infant.
Star-Crossed Lovers: SCP-1790's quotes indicate that it is in some way related to the Arabic tale of Layla and Majnun (detailed on the trope page), and is most likely a reincarnation of the story's Layla, who had gone mad from love and decides to use bloodshed to make Majnun "rise anew from the slaughter".

SCP-1791 - Mobile Homes

SCP-1791 (collectively designated SCP-1791-X) are human biological siblings associated with their own unique spatial anomaly. When surveyed, the residence of an instance appears to be an unremarkable personal living space. However, each residence contains an unrecorded door in the least-used portion of the home leading to the spatial anomaly, designated SCP-1791-X-1. The interior of the anomalous space resembles the living quarters of a moderately afflicted compulsive hoarder, fitted with a good portion of 1791's personal belongings.

SCP-1792 - Viral Video

SCP-1792 is a fragment of video footage with mind-affecting properties; no one who views it will be able to coherently describe what they saw. Strong emotional responses are not uncommon after viewings, many subjects appearing perturbed or distraught by what they saw, and display frustration, hysteria, giddiness, and severe melancholia, among other reactions. 1792's other notable quality is self-propagation, as a tape or disc containing it infects the device it is currently inside. All future media played on the infected device will have 1792 recorded onto them instead of their original contents.

SCP-1793 - A Happy Bunny

SCP-1793 is a 9-year-old male European rabbit which shows signs of aging consistent with its species and suffers from pulmonic stenosis. 1793 is capable of manifesting objects at will through spatial anomalies that continually emit Cherenkov radiation during the process. In containment, 1793 will typically manifest objects for recreational or aesthetic purposes, such as exercise devices, paintings, or vegetables if it is not fed.

SCP-1794 - Sapient Grapefruit

SCP-1794 is a sapient grapefruit capable of speech, hearing, and sight by unknown means, and also demonstrates an apparent immunity to decomposition. Psychoanalysis has revealed that the fruit suffers from dissociative identity disorder and aichmophobia. The known identities of 1794 have acknowledged that they are in fact fruit, and insist upon acting for the good of fruit-kind. The identities cataloged thus far include "Activist Preacher", "Oppressed Free-Thinker", and "Latin American Revolutionary".

SCP-1795 - The Star Womb

SCP-1795 are a group of spheroidal entities 50,000 km in diameter, similar in appearance to the human heart with three large nodular openings circling the upper end and a hollow interior. Although they outwardly appear to be composed of some form of biological material, detailed examination has revealed that their bodies do not correlate to any known form of biological matter. 1795 exhibit two key anomalous properties that are essential to their only known form of natural behavior. Upon arriving at a young protostar over the course of millions of years, an instance will move into a stable orbit in the star's habitable zone and proceed to create a planet. All created planets are observed to be similar in size to Earth, possess a breathable atmosphere, a magnetically active core, a fully formed moon, and are always extremely conducive to life.

Advanced Ancient Humans: It's implied that humanity is originally from a different world and created the Star Wombs to serve as planet-builders for their empire.
Gentle Giant: They're absolute massive, measuring 50,000 kilometers in diameter. They also create habitable earth-like planets in the hope that their masters might've escaped extinction.
That's No Moon: They look like heart-shaped nebulae, but they're actually enormous living creatures.

SCP-1796 - TOP SECRET DOCUMENTS

SCP-1796 is a 1970s manila envelope with the words "To Richard" written on the back in red ink. When a subject comes into contact with the envelope, a document will be transported inside it. This document will contain content that the subject wishes to suppress knowledge of, such as classified documents, personal communications, and information the subject c or otherwise would be punished for owning or revealing. If the subject removes the document, a different one will appear in its place in an indefinitely continuing process. When used continuously, 1796 will begin altering the documents sent through it, relating to topics the subject is secretive about.

SCP-1797 - Kitten Flu

SCP-1797 is a strain of influenza primarily transmitted through contact with SCP-1797-A, organisms that resemble domestic cats between the ages of 3 and 8 weeks old. Two days after infection, several large tumors will begin to grow on the host's body for several days, gradually taking the shape of 1797-A. Once fully grown, the instances will animate and detach from the host's body. The process will repeat for as long as the host is infected with 1797.

SCP-1798 - Children of the void

SCP-1798 is a plant whose structure is interlaced with an unknown mineral, characterized by iridescent blue-green leaves and an angular, rigid root network. 1798 appears to propagate solely from cuttings and does not require water, sunlight, or nutrients once fully grown. Within one minute of a human subject ingesting part of the plant, they will enter an altered mental state that causes them to appear drowsy, uncoordinated, and occasionally incoherent. After three weeks, subjects will undergo sudden physiological alterations. Over the course of approximately 30 minutes, all skin, muscle, connective tissue, and internal organs will be replaced by an unidentified translucent inorganic material with an iridescent blue-green colouration. At the same time, the entire skeletal structure is replaced by intertwined strands of a material that visibly resembles nerve tissue. Subjects who reach this state, designated SCP-1798-1, enter a form of shared consciousness, able to share sensory input and communicate even when isolated.
