    2200- 2249 

SCP-2200 - Soulberg

SCP-2200 is a sword, 80cm in length, composed of an alloy of silver and copper, estimated to have been constructed between 1,000 and 500 BCE. The object is luminescent, giving off blue light at a level of brightness directly proportional to the number of subjects it has slain. SCP-2200-2 is the human individual who is currently bonded with 2200 at any given time, who will experience heightened epinephrine and testosterone levels and immediately gain an understanding of the sword, invariably resulting in 2200-2 killing those around them with 2200. They cannot separate themselves from 2200, and any attempt to forcefully remove it from their grasp will result in immediate death of the subject. SCP-2200-3 is an area of land where every subject killed by 2200 manifests, becoming a likeness of themselves formed out of an anomalous, silver-based alloy (SCP-2200-4). Despite being made of inorganic material, instances of 2200-4 are fully animate and capable of vocalization, sharing the personality and memories of the victim they resemble. 2200-4 do not need to eat, drink, or sleep in order to sustain themselves, but may perform these actions if they so choose. Instances that leave 2200-3 will cease animation upon setting foot outside the designated space.
  • Amazing Technicolor Population: SCP-2200-2 (the person that SCP-2200-1, a sword, is bonded with) gradually gains a blue hue in their skin.
  • Mortality Phobia: SCP-2200-1 tends to bond with people who are afraid of death and have a negative view of what happens after death. They believe that by killing others with SCP-2200-1, they are sparing them for what could possibly come after death.
  • Purgatory and Limbo: "Soulberg" is considered one by a number of its inhabitants. Crossing the threshold of the active area is the equivalent of passing on properly to them.
  • Reincarnation: Any people killed using SCP-2200-1 are reincarnated as constructs made of a silver-like alloy.

SCP-2201 - Cross-Dimensional Barbershop

SCP-2201 is a tin coin roughly 3 cm in diameter, with an obverse stamped with a pair of hair-styling scissors and a straight razor crossed against each other. When a man holds the coin in his hand and firmly states the words “I could really use a haircut,” he immediately teleports inside SCP-2201-1, an anomalous building resembling a 1930’s barbershop. SCP-2201-2 is a humanoid entity that refers to itself as “Giuseppe”, claiming to be the owner and sole barber of 2201-1. Once an individual enters 2201-1, Giuseppe will turn and ask the individual what they would like in the language the subject is most comfortable speaking in. Giuseppe is generally polite and courteous, though he will often brush off questions regarding the location of 2201-1 or other questions that he deems intrusive. He is capable of fulfilling any requests made to him in line with the functions of a mundane barbershop, along with more antiquated functions such as teeth removal or surgery, and has been noted to perform any requested functions extremely well.

SCP-2202 - A Brief Respite

SCP-2202 is a phenomenon affecting residential apartment complexes in Asia. When 2202 occurs, affected apartments will undergo a drastic change in their internal environment and climate. This change results in the interior taking on the characteristics of various natural scenes, from dense tropical jungles to frigid tundra wastelands. In all manifestations, the resultant environment only contains natural landforms and wildlife, with a lack of civilization. Any environmental samples removed from the apartment will immediately undergo a complex chemical reaction, expiring and/or collapsing into dust. The exterior dimensions of the apartment will not restrain the interior space created by the anomaly. While 2202 is active, exterior walls of the apartment will be rendered effectively indestructible. Rooms visible through windows from outside the building will appear to be physically unchanged, apart from being dimly lit by a luminescent blue light. The apartment affected will also be inaccessible from any entrance apart from the front door. Individuals affected by these events, however, have displayed little to no shock or resistance to the environment generated by 2202. During a 2202 event, occupants of the apartment will be able to roam freely in the environment manifested. When interviewed, they display little to no shock or resistance to the phenomenon, and describe their experiences in the environment as helpful for stress relief.

SCP-2203 - Find the One for You!

SCP-2203 is a "Love Tester'' machine constructed from American chestnut wood, brass, and glass, with a brass handgrip on the front and topped with a tall lightbox. On the back of the machine is a small plaque listing "The Great Amusementology Company" as the manufacturer. When activated, the lightbox cycles through each light while a beeping melody is played. Based on the measured skin conductivity of the subject holding the handgrip, the lightbox indicates a supposed "score" of the subject's romantic appeal. Unlike other love testers, 2203 dispenses a card displaying the name and address of a person, along with a few words of advice about approaching said person, all of whom have been proven to exist. Subjects who approach the person named on the card report finding an easy bond between them being created, as if the subject implicitly understands them. Subsequent interviews with the person approached also indicate a reciprocation of positive emotional connections with the subject. Sexual, romantic, and otherwise intimate relationships between the subject and the person have been determined by interview to be long-lasting, with marriage and full expectation of a happy life being common results.

SCP-2204 - Triple Threat: Intracommunal Men of Obscurity

Before you read this information, please be sure that you are currently in Oak Grove, Kentucky.

SCP-2204 is an anomalous phenomenon surrounding the hip-hop group known as “Triple Theat”, (SCP-2204-A, consisting of brothers Martin, Matthew, and Michael Alvarez, and their longtime friends Jerome Troier and Austin Betancourt), who pose no particular risk to themselves or each other. SCP-2204-B refers to any works or communications produced by Triple Threat, either individually or in concert. 2204-A, 2204-B, and any information regarding either are incapable of leaving Oak Grove, Kentucky. Physical objects will disappear upon reaching the boundaries of Oak Grove and reappear in some appropriate location within the town's borders. Individuals who leave Oak Grove immediately forget all information related to 2204, with all pertinent memories being altered to contain different material to form a coherent narrative that does not include the anomaly.


SCP-2205 - Mr. Dwight Montgomery-Patterson, War Hero

SCP-2205, evidently, were two identical/yet separate iterations of Dwight Patterson, a former soldier in the United States Army who served in the 1944 landings at Normandy. Both versions of Dwight were married to a woman named Amanda Montgomery, and were survived by at least one child after death. The first version of Dwight was said to have been killed via an MG42 gunshot to the chest while storming the beaches. The second version was dismissed with honors for multiple heroic actions during the landings and died of an aortic aneurysm in 2005. Both Dwights were classified as anomalous because conflicting information regarding either of them held the ability to significantly modify the properties of both the past and the present day.

SCP-2206 - Maximum League Baseball

SCP-2206 is a series of radio broadcasts that began occurring throughout the continental United States in 2008. These broadcasts mainly occur during the evening, usually coinciding with a region's baseball games. It is currently theorized that 2206 is an inter-universal broadcast from an alternate universe significantly different from our own. The content of 2206 is a sports commentary and discussion show. While the focus of this show is a sport referred to as baseball, the sport is significantly different from any known version of baseball played on Earth. Differences include high-strength fences surrounding the field for the protection of spectators, frequent and legitimate on-field fights between opposing teams, mandatory use of steroids and other performance enhancing drugs, serious injuries and fatalities are significantly more common, and the fact that players are a various mix of creatures, automatons, and anomalous humanoids. The commentators, who are by all indications baseline humans, treat these differences as usual and normal, providing commentary very similar in tone and style to that of a normal sports talk radio show.
  • Atlantis: The Florida Flounders are mentioned to play against the Atlantis Aquatics every year.
  • Blood Sport: This universe's baseball seems to lead to casualties and injuries often, whether in-game or not.
  • Deadly Game: SCP-2206 consists of baseball broadcasts from a universe where baseball is very weird.
  • Fish People: The Florida Flounders are entirely amphibious.
  • Home Field Advantage: The Colorado Blizzards play in a field perpetually covered in snow. Inverted by the Montreal Volcanoes playing in a crater that when erupts, kills without distinction!
  • Multiple Reference Pun: Detroit Wolverines have the name from the state's college sport (University of Michigan) and are noted to be immortal. San Diego Whales refers to both animals that can be seen in the city and how the city's name supposedly means "whale's vagina".
  • Punny Name: Synonyms (Metropolitans - Urbans; Twins - Clones), similar words (the "Cardinals" are priests instead of birds), references to the city (Phoenix Firebirds)...
  • Reptiles Are Abhorrent: In the SCP-2006 radio broadcasts, the Baltimore Terrapins' team mascot is a three-ton, acid-spitting lizard that weighs 3 tons and is able to fire poisonous spines that grow from its back.
  • Shout-Out: There's a large number of references to both pop culture and the real life MLB:
    • Several teams note  have names that real-life baseball teams used to have. Two others note  are based off former teams from other sports, and one note  is a legitimate current baseball team, albeit with their team name meaning something different.
    • The Boston Red Shirts have a habit of frequently dying.
    • The Chicago Black Sox attempted to fix the 1919 World Series, winning in a four-game sweep "to the confusion of all involved". This is a reference to the real life "Black Sox" scandal, where the Chicago White Sox attempted to fix the 1919 World Series. note 
    • The Cleveland Exiles are mentioned as not having played in Cleveland since 1900. In real life, the Cleveland Spiders became a travel team halfway through 1899 because of a lack of gate receipts.
    • The Los Angeles Defectors and San Francisco Ghosts note  were forcibly transplanted from Brooklyn and New York respectively, in 1958, escaping a plot by the New York Highlanders. This is an obvious take on the real Brooklyn Dodgers' move to Los Angeles and New York Giants' move to San Francisco.
    • The New York Urbans and Baltimore Terrapins faced each other in the 1969 World Series, a parallel to the real-life New York Mets and Baltimore Orioles. In this universe, the "Murderin' Urbans" assassinated the Terrapins' roster, leading to a ban on off-field murder that wouldn't be lifted until 2000—another year in which the real-life Mets reached the World Series.
    • The Oakland Elephants are a reference to the real Oakland Athletics' logo, which is an elephant.
    • The Texas Renegades quit the league in 1993 to play basketball, returning in 1995. In effect, they did the reverse of Michael Jordan, who quit basketball to play baseball.

SCP-2207 - Dimensional Razor

SCP-2207 is a disposable plastic knife identical to other non-anomalous brands. When the cutting edge of 2207 reaches a minimum speed of 6m/s, it severs local space-time, creating a rift that connects to a random alternate universe. These rifts, designated SCP-2207-1, typically last for five minutes without outside intervention, and their length is equal to the distance 2207 traveled at or above 6m/s. They remain stationary after creation, but may be widened by pulling along the edges, able to be kept artificially open for a maximum of 24 hours. After 24 hours, the rift closes, severing any material crossing the threshold.
  • Alien Geometries: Exploration #10 has a hallway where you can reach the middle of it, but once you do, you can never reach the other side or go back to where you came from. Word of God states that this was caused by one of Zeno's paradoxes (the author says it's the "Achilles and the tortoise" paradox, but what he describes is actually the Dichotomy paradox) becoming real for that universe.
  • And I Must Scream: Exploration #32 involves a universe where everything in it becomes frozen in place, including things that go into it from other universes. However, every living being in it is still conscious and aware of their surroundings. It happens because of Zeno's arrow paradox, which doesn't apply to thinking, becoming reality.
  • Dimensional Cutter: It's a plastic knife that can cut open portals to other universes. It also messes with the physical laws of those universes as a result, resulting in an "Yggdrasil-Severance Event" that disconnects each universe from the multiverse.
  • Gravity Screw: Exploration #25 features a solar eclipse doing this to that universe's Earth. It's actually the planet Mercury, whose gravity has become much stronger.
  • I'm Melting!: Exploration #46 involves a universe where everything is suddenly melting, including living beings.
  • Mike Nelson, Destroyer of Worlds: The Foundation has been accidentally destroying entire universes by testing the knife and exploring the portals it creates.
  • Reality Is Out to Lunch: This is the case in every universe visited.
  • Walking Wasteland: Exploration #28 features a farm where all the nearbly plants, and eventually a farmer and the D-Class woman who was sent through the portal, wither easily and die. It's because life is now impossible in that universe.

SCP-2208 - Deus in Furno

SCP-2208 is a 2-quart stainless steel saucepan with an interior coated in a nonstick polymer believed to be polytetrafluoroethylene, as well as a USB receptacle in its handle, intended for an unknown purpose. The pan does not transfer heat as a stainless steel saucepan should, and heat testing up to 2,300°C has been unable to warm its surface. When a human subject makes skin contact with any part of 2208, there is a 29% chance the subject will be transformed into a similar saucepan (SCP-2208-A) in a process that takes ~0.8 seconds. Instances of 2208-A match 2208's appearance, apart from the lack of USB receptacle; they are otherwise non-anomalous.

SCP-2209 - Virtual Reality

SCP-2209 is a hollow spherical object with a diameter of approximately 3.8 meters. The outer surface is composed of stainless steel and bears no textural irregularities, with the exception of a circular entry hatch, a single ventilation grate for the intake/output of air, and a socket connected to a large cluster of removable power and data cabling. The internal surface of 2209 is composed of white HDPE plastic with an array of electrical lighting and evenly spaced, circular plates of a currently unidentified metal alloy. SCP-2209-2 is a full-body suit composed of an inner layer of elastane and a thin outer layer of dark neoprene. Multiple metal nodes on the limbs, hands, chest, and spine of the suit are connected by a complex network of wiring. Fixed to the head of the suit is a headset with a visor, which connects to a network of smaller, more closely-spaced cranial nodes. When provided with an adequate power source, 2209 is capable of recreating a number of complex predetermined virtual reality scenarios for the subject wearing 2209-2. Upon being sealed within 2209 and stepping onto a large central plate, the subject is prompted by an artificial androgynous voice to select a scenario. Following voice confirmation, the chosen scenario will be recreated for the subject.

SCP-2210 - Policy #40535: Anomalous Intelligence

SCP-2210 is an insurance company that specializes exclusively in anomalous objects and incidents. The company website lists the company's address as "4i Quarternion Ave. Los Angeles, CA, 90001", and directions available lead to a non-anomalous apartment complex in the same area. If a person with knowledge of 2210 and its purpose enters the complex, they will enter an extra-dimensional space that resembles a modern office complex. The inhabitants of 2210 (termed SCP-2210-1) resemble non-anomalous humans in modern business attire with the company name stitched onto their shirts, whose only communication with entrants is to convince them into signing a contract. Rather than allow the entrant to choose a contract, the instance will then suggest a specific contract that invariably pertains to circumstances surrounding the entrant. 2210 will not only insure anomalous objects or incidents for mundane purposes, but also provide funding to purchase and/or study anomalous objects, supply various pieces of highly esoteric equipment, and generally perform various differing tasks and fulfill requests as long as they pertain to anomalous items or incidents in some way. The Foundation has determined that various groups of interest are regularly serviced by 2210.

SCP-2211 - A .wmv, a .wav, an .exe, and a Coffee Machine

SCP-2211 is a collection of four technological anomalies discovered in the offices of Hewlett-Packard. SCP-2211-1 is a 932 MB video file titled “longsmile.wmv” which shows a pair of smiling lips at the right edge of the screen, which open to reveal teeth. The camera then pans right throughout the rest of the video, continuously revealing more teeth. Playing this video for more than 59 minutes results in the device used to play it secreting a small amount of what has been determined to be human saliva. SCP-2211-2 is a 2.0 MB audio file titled “eyee(79).wav”. Its contents vary with each playthrough, but generally consist of modulated static that cuts off occasionally every 2-10 seconds. Playing this file on a device for more than 59 minutes results in the device secreting a clear fluid identified as a mixture of water and sodium chloride. SCP-2211-3 is a 599 KB executable titled “耳.exe”. When run for more than 59 minutes, air processed through the built-in fans of the affected computer begins to smell strongly of earwax. SCP-2211-4 is a coffee reheater powered by a USB adapter. When plugged into the USB port of a computer, any liquid placed in its container will be heated to about 65°C, while also being transmuted into nasal mucus and occasional nose hair.

SCP-2212 - [MASSIVE DATABASE CORRUPTION]

This article has been entirely obscured by what has been ruled as massive database corruption, though entering a series of passwords reveals the truth:

SCP-2212 is a loosely humanoid entity of unknown composition. It is animate and mobile, though shows no signs of physical aggression. It has two arms and a head, though lacks legs, and instead moves through hopping on an elongated trunk. 2212 also emits moderate and variable quantities of light at various points throughout the spectrum, including as gamma ray. Measurements indicate that a person standing one meter away from 2212 for one minute would typically be exposed to about 0.3 Sv, enough to cause mild radiation poisoning and long-term increase of cancer risk. 2212 is sapient and highly intelligent, capable of speaking and understanding most common languages, and learns new ones rapidly. Persons interacting with or studying 2212 may be subject to deleterious mental effects, or even having their behavior directly influenced by 2212 in rare cases.


SCP-2213 - Cat People

SCP-2213 is a door which, if uncovered, will produce an individual (referred to as SCP-2213-1) at intervals approximately two minutes apart. Beyond this production, the doorway appears entirely mundane. A special covering found with the doorway upon discovery can be used to prevent the production of instances. While covered, 2213 produces audible vibrations at the same regular intervals as production events, however the covering has proven capable of preventing such events entirely. While superficially similar to humans, 2213-1 lack the capacity for complex thought. They are also completely hairless, and require little nutrition to survive, and are resistant to injury due to redundant internal organs. Their visual acuity is reduced significantly due to vertical slit pupils, while night vision is dramatically increased. Despite lacking obvious sensory organs for the processing of auditory input, 2213-1 have displayed behavior consistent with a capacity to observe sound.
  • Cat Folk: These come out the door if it's open. They're bald and incapable of complex thought, however.
  • Portal Door: It's a one-way portal that lets in cat people every two minutes, unless it is covered.
  • Invading Refugees: What the cat people really are.
  • Killed to Uphold the Masquerade: The fate of an entire species. Essentially, they die every two minutes whenever the door's obstructed.
  • Amnesia Loop: The Foundation has been doing this since 1965, so they wouldn't feel ashamed of what they were doing to the cat people.
  • Sealed Evil in a Can: The cat people aren't the evil the Foundation is sealing. Rather, a mysterious entity is pursuing them and the Foundation is trying to keep that entity out.

SCP-2214 - Economy of Scale

SCP-2214 is an apartment located in Okrug, Moscow, with a layout consistent with late Soviet-era standards for single-resident apartments, and no significant differences from that of other units in the building. 2214 contains 1288 objects, mostly typical belongings for a late Soviet-era apartment. Any object that remains in the apartment for 72 hours or more will be incorporated into its anomalous nature, becoming impossible to physically remove. The objects within the apartment change orientation and relative position to one another in response to changes in macroeconomic conditions of the former Soviet Union. Each object is representative of a single macroeconomic factor, although the sheer number of combined objects has made interpreting their movements effectively impossible. Manually changing the position of any object affects changes in the economy of the former Soviet Union.

SCP-2215 - I Saw the Sign

SCP-2215 are a series of cedar-wood arrow-shaped signs mounted on simple metal poles. 2215's anomalous properties manifest when a categorized anomaly contained by the Chaos Insurgency is vocally mentioned in their vicinity. If this occurs, a sign will swivel on its metal to face the direction of the 2215 instance that is closest to the aforementioned anomaly. Additionally, a short description of said anomaly will manifest on the surface of the sign. The descriptions produced are often either inaccurate, cryptically written, grammatically incorrect, nonsensical, or any combination of the prior four. 2215 instances do not manifest their anomalous properties if an anomaly not fitting this description is mentioned in their vicinity.

SCP-2216 - Peripheral Visions

SCP-2216 is an entity or group of entities which presently exists in certain examples of video media. The entity uniformly appears in the background, either to the side of the frame or in other locations where its presence is generally not detected by the viewer. It will also relocate itself upon viewing via transmission through wireless networks or direct connection of digital storage devices, among others. When a subject views video media containing 2216 and becomes consciously aware of the entity, its anomalous effects will manifest. Psychosis, parataxis, and catatonia will occur, followed by expiration of the subject.

SCP-2217 - Hammer and Anvil

SCP-2217 is a beach on a Greek island. The sand is composed of non-anomalous silicates and calcium compounds, as well as several cationic metallic particles, which hold their charge despite being grounded. 2217 also houses a small silicate cliff at the northernmost end, the interior of which is affected by the anomaly. Natural processes that take place on 2217, including the decay of sea life, erosion of the shoreline, lightning strikes, and other weather conditions, result in the creation of structures and devices that are seemingly artificial in nature, collectively designated SCP-2217-A. 2217-A instances include several forms of machinery, ranging from simple timepieces to complex automatons, jewelry evidently fashioned from sea glass and other waste products, and a model of a large city, designated SCP-2217-A1 and located in a grotto within the cliff, accessible only via an underwater entrance. 2217 is considered a holy site by The Broken Church, a splinter faction of the Church of the Broken God.

SCP-2218 - If I Only Had a Brain

SCP-2218 is a collection of individuals which take on the outward appearance of inanimate mannequins if observed via visual or auditory information processed by an individual or automated surveillance system. While the general appearance of each individual differs greatly from one another, all living instances take on an individually unique appearance when observed. Each instance requires the nutritional intake approximate to a human individual of similar size, and they appear to engage in behavior typical to isolated human communities capable of agriculture. Recovered written communication has indicated that English is the primary language utilized by 2218. Due to their anomalous properties, capture and examination of individual instances is not difficult. While internal examinations through non-invasive means indicate an inner composition reflective of inanimate mannequins, physical examination of this internal structure has shown that regardless of outward appearance, all instances are internally physiologically identical to humans.

SCP-2219 - PORRIDGE

SCP-2219 is an unlicensed Game Boy game titled "PORRIDGE", created by the Totleigh Software Corporation. Apparently designed as a platforming-style adventure revolving around the story of "Goldilocks and the Three Bears", the main character "GOLDOX" must progress through levels and defeat bear-themed enemies. PORRIDGE comes without clear instructions and is subject to ambiguous gameplay goals and various glitches. The game’s anomalous qualities surface during gameplay, where outcomes of said gameplay result in either positive or negative physical responses from the player's body
  • Absurdly High-Stakes Game: SCP-2219 is a Goldilocks and the Three Bears-themed video game that causes various things to happen to the player's body after completing, or failing to complete, various objectives. Good things like collecting enough Porridge cause feelings of contentment and instantaneous orgasm. Bad things like losing a life to a boss cause an inflamed throat, leprosy, blindness, and cardiac arrest. No one's been able to beat the final boss yet.
  • Eye Scream: Losing to "MAMAMA" results in the player becoming permanently blind.
  • The Immodest Orgasm: When GOLDOX collects 500 porridge, the player goes into an "instantaneous orgasm".
  • Intentional Engrish for Funny: The game's "instruction manual".
    Imersive 5D game EXPERIENTS!

    GOLDOX is come to BÄRHAUS. Danger muchly. Usurp BÄRTHRONE and pregnate BÄRPRINCESS and conquer BÄRPEOPL. Unwanted? Haw! It begin. Depress START to Levesque. PROVE YOU WROTH!

    A words of CAUSHING: 5D feature doing much, failure is testamint to an WEAK UNDESERVING sort LEPERKIND. INCOMPETENCE will be PENALIZED this is necessary. You AGREE. Good.
  • Make Them Rot: Losing to "PAPAPA" causes "instantaneous, rapid tooth rot".
  • The Most Dangerous Video Game: A video that has a number of harmful effects on players if they lose, such as causing leprosy or cardiac arrest.
  • Reality Warper: The game affects the player based on what they have achieved or failed to do.

SCP-2220 - Halsey's Hammer

SCP-2220 are four naval warships belonging to United States Navy Task Force 38.3 arrayed in close formation that manifested, along with approximately 2.1 km3 of seawater, amid the debris of a local mall alleged to have been swallowed into a sinkhole. Foundation recovery teams dispatched to the site found that in the case of each vessel, all personnel found aboard were deceased at their battle stations. Ongoing autopsies of the crew have determined that the cause of death in each non-combat related case was found to be an abrupt cessation of sudden cardiac arrest. Nineteen aerial bombs superficially resembling the “Little Boy” nuclear device were further located in the first ship’s forward magazine, five of which were indicated to have been used operationally in 1945.

SCP-2221 - A Friendly Agreement

SCP-2221 is an End User License Agreement of the sort commonly agreed to by consumers in order to use software. They are unusually long for documents of their nature, presumably to deter consumers from reading to the end. Near the end of the contract are three clauses believed to bring about distinct but related anomalous effects. 2221's lack of effect on the majority of human subjects, including D-Class personnel, makes direct experimentation difficult, but the Foundation has performed extensive analysis on populations believed to be affected. Individuals are assumed to be instances of SCP-2221-A if they have created an account on a website or downloaded software known to host an instance of 2221. Behavioral changes observed in 2221-A populations include a greatly increased voter turnout and political activism, increased interest in religion and issues of religious identity, community punishment for deviating from religious law, often in the form of shaming, and religious art incorporating nooses, or patterns resembling nooses with unusual frequency.

SCP-2222 - Meschk-Mernanschordbtoum-VordhosbnV7

SCP-2222 is an airlock composed of two opaque hermetic plug doors and a cylindrical (3.6 m in diameter) chamber within a space station designated Orbital Unit-09. Organisms entering 2222 precipitate immediate anomalous effects. Upon entrance, the inner hermetic door will seal and entrap the organism. The airlock will remain sealed for approximately three minutes prior to the door reopening and the organism re-emerging. Upon re-emergence, organisms exhibit complete organic and structural reversion, remaining alive despite theoretically fatal alterations to their physical forms. Affected human subjects are capable of communication through vocalizing individual words in reverse, and become physically incapable of vocalizing in intelligible format unless prompted to do so. As a result, immediate communication has proven impossible due to incomprehension.
  • Body Horror: A common result of anyone going inside of SCP-2222 is their skin being turned inside-out, exposing their internal muscles and bones. The more unfortunate ones are turned into burned piles of flesh that are still moving.
  • It Amused Me: Everything that happens in SCP-2222 is for the entertainment of the amorphous aliens that control the interior of the airlock.
  • Noodle Incident: Exploration V's log is completely redacted. Going by the later logs, it apparently involved an O5 council member and a D-class that disappointed the aliens.

SCP-2223 - Spamdexing Anime Images

SCP-2223 is a collection of digital PNG images that depict a woman of an indeterminate young age in an anime style. 2223 most commonly depicts its subject with a red and white school uniform, although certain instances have shown alternative or absent attire. Although the exact portrayal of the subject varies across instances, physical characteristics such as eye color, hair color, and bodily proportions remain constant in all versions, concluding that all 2223 versions were intended to depict a single entity designated SCP-2223-A. The primary anomalous effect of 2223 is their ability to manipulate search algorithms to rank them near the top of the results for certain keyword or phrase inputs to which they would ordinarily be irrelevant. Despite obvious differences to the human eye, computers report high similarity between 2223 and visually unrelated images relevant to affected keywords. Any human who views an instance of 2223 will feel a strong compulsion to share the image through any means possible, either sending it on other forms of electronic media or drawing a non-anomalous reproduction within their natural artistic ability.

SCP-2224 - Teeter-Pult

SCP-2224 is a four-person teeter-totter made of wood and metal, which resembles an older style of teeter-totter no longer widely produced due to safety regulations in most countries. Each of 2224's seats have a single letter engraved into the wood where the rider would be positioned; A, B, Ø, and D. 2224's effects only occur if a rider is sitting on the "A" or "Ø" seats, with another rider on the opposite end of the board. The "A" seat’s effect is initiated when both it and the "B" seat are occupied by riders. When the rider on the "A" seat pushes off from the ground, the rider will experience the feeling of being launched off the object, approximately 2.2 to 3 meters straight above the seat. When the "B" rider pushes off the ground, the "A" rider will then feel as if they are falling back down on the seat at a velocity to be expected from their perceived height in the air. The anomalous effect of the "Ø" seat is initiated in a similar manner as the "A" seat's, with riders occupying both the "Ø" and "D" seats instead. It differs in that the "D" rider must stay in the ground position for longer than 1.2 seconds after the "Ø" rider reaches their apex. Unlike the "A" seat, riders on the "Ø" seat can have experiences that vary greatly in perceived time and velocity, depending on how long the "D" rider stays in the ground position.

SCP-2225 - Repentant Lindworm

SCP-2225 is a serpentine entity possessing two forelegs and a spined, lizardlike head. A crest of multicolored hair runs the length of 2225’s back, consistent in composition with human hair. It is capable of limited communication, though it appears to have difficulty forming words correctly and its speech is halting. 2225 is believed to be sapient, and based on interviews, seems to possess a simplistic mindset. 2225 is able, at irregular intervals, to materialize small trinkets of silver from its hair crest, usually followed by regurgitation of hair samples. 2225 becomes aggressive when personnel attempt to take these objects by force, but it has given away all items that pertain to Foundation personnel whose hair it has consumed.

SCP-2226 - Annihilation

SCP-2226 is an extraterrestrial escape craft composed entirely of antimatter. The object is ellipsoid in shape and constructed from an alloy of the antimatter counterparts of iron, tin, and nickel with a mass of 847 kg. In the center is a 0.73 m wide circular, transparent hatch through which the object’s interior is visible. 2226 broadcasts a 2.15 kHz radio transmission every 7 seconds, approximately 5 seconds in length. Transmission contents vary slightly from broadcast to broadcast and seem to express the object's positional coordinates for any vessels within range of the signal. Inside 2226 is a compact control panel with several knobs and levers that seem to control the object’s maneuvering thrusters and radio transmitter. Beside the control panel is a vaguely humanoid entity resting within what is believed to be a suspended animation chamber. Designated SCP-2226-1, the entity possesses a deep mauve coloration and two pairs of upper limbs and a single pair of lower limbs connected to its torso. Its upper limbs terminate in a hand with seven webbed fingers while its lower limbs terminate in feet with seven shorter digits. 2226-1 lacks a distinct head, instead having its main sensory structures centered in its torso. As no eyes or photoreceptive organs are visible on the creature's body, it is assumed to perceive its surroundings through echolocation.
  • Anti Matter: The SCP is an alien escape craft made of antimatter.

SCP-2227 - If You See Something, Say Something

SCP-2227 are incorporeal humanoid entities that manifest within subway stations of the New York Metropolitan area. Each instance is of variable appearance, but most commonly wear disordered clothing and a black knapsack. An instance will demanifest whenever a subject makes direct contact with it. Each instance is identified by a secondary humanoid figure with variable attire following it (hereby designated SCP-2227-A), which can only be viewed via recorded video. A 2227 instance initially manifests near the turnstiles of a station. In 80 percent of manifestations, the entity will jump the turnstile or enter through the emergency door to gain access to the station. After it has successfully entered the station, it will begin panhandling. After an undetermined period of time, the instance will be likely to propel itself into the path of an oncoming train. Upon contact with the train, the instance will demanifest.

SCP-2228 - Foundation Playsets

SCP-2228 is a series of identical boxed sets of polyethylene figurines labeled "SCP Foundation Containment Site Playset", manufactured by Dr. Wondertainment. The contents of each box are models of scientists, security officers, and a single D Class, a variety of appropriate accessories, a disassembled enclosure with a blast door style opening with "Containment Cell" written above it. 2228's anomalous effects manifest when 2 AA batteries are inserted into its back panel, and whenever an object small enough to fit inside the "Containment Cell" is placed within it. The item will develop minor anomalous properties for the duration of an individual interacting with 2228. These properties typically manifest as anomalous means of interaction with other components of 2228.

SCP-2229 - Legate of Ursa Major to the Senate and People of Rome

SCP-2229 is a telepathic entity that self-identifies as "Sextus Pompilius Trio, Legate of Ursa Major to the Senate and People of Rome". Sextus manifests to individuals with whom it chooses to communicate as an auditory hallucination of an individual speaking in Classical Latin. By thinking in the appropriate language, individuals are capable of initiating or responding to communication from Sextus. The entity is not thought to have a physical form, but is capable of manipulating matter through anomalous means. When an individual communicating with Sextus focuses on a particular object or group of objects, Sextus is capable of causing that object or group of objects to spontaneously disappear. Similarly, when an individual communicating with it focuses on a particular location, it is capable of causing an object or group of objects to spontaneously appear at that location.

SCP-2230 - An Unlicensed Neurosurgeon

SCP-2230 is a man of European descent, claiming by his own admission to have been a “self-employed” neurosurgeon. A Foundation investigation conducted in 2012 connected 2230 to a string of unusual medical reports across Illinois and Wisconsin, dating back to 1985. This investigation has resulted in the identification of 187 individuals that 2230 has performed unlicensed medical operations on. Each of these individuals, designated SCP-2230-1, have been medically examined by Foundation specialists. While the majority of 2230-1 appear outwardly normal, X-ray examination reveals clear abnormalities within the cranium, often having large portions replaced with machinery or circuitry from common household objects.
  • Back-Alley Doctor: He operates out of his apartment, preying on victims who need brain surgery but can't afford it and doctors with useful skills to steal.
  • Brain Theft: SCP-2230 took out parts of the brains of various neurosurgeons and somehow added them to his own brain to increase his knowledge and take their skills.
  • Mad Doctor: SCP-2230 certainly fits the bill, having no concern for the actual welfare of his patients and only operating on them out of some sort of desire to prove something.
  • Narcissist: The guy is clearly full of himself, believing he is an actual genius and that everyone else are either morons who will never understand him or ungrateful bastards who should be thanking him for his apparently tireless efforts.

SCP-2231 - A Shared Identity

SCP-2231 was a shared identity belonging to three otherwise non-anomalous human beings; a 41 year old Korean man, a 13 year old Nigerian girl, and a 56 year old Pakistani woman (referred to as SCP-2231-1, -2, and -3). Each person claimed to go by the name “Johnathan Tran”, born June 17th 1983 and residing in Boise, Idaho. 2231-1, -2, and -3 each had a comprehensive knowledge of the experiences and history of the other two instances, as well as of the supposed shared identity of 2231. All instances showed a strong preference to respond to questions about their past with information pertinent to the history of SCP-2231-4, the actual Johnathan Tran, as opposed to their own physical history. The anomaly was considered Neutralized when Johnathan was fatally injured after assaulting a Foundation guard, prompting 2231-1, -2, and -3 to suffer a complete lack of higher brain function.

SCP-2232 - Birdphone. Think Different.

SCP-2232 is a series of smartphones superficially resembling a sky-blue Samsung Galaxy S4, running on a modified version of the Android operating system listed as "Delicious Sunflower Seeds". 2232's casing has so far resisted all attempts to be opened, and any attempts to do so have resulted in the device vibrating violently and emitting a loud, squawking noise. Using 2232 to call a valid telephone number causes it to transform into a common hill myna, which then appears to reproduce via budding to produce a second, smaller myna. The second instance, designated SCP-2232-A, will attempt to fly directly towards the location of the dialed telephone. Once it has reached its destination, 2232-A will attempt to attract the attention of the nearest human being by mimicking loud noises like alarms or heavy machinery, or flapping its wings in their face. From this point onwards, both birds will function as a two-way voice transmission system, with speech addressed to the former instantaneously vocalized by the latter and vice versa. The call can be terminated any time by grabbing either myna and turning it gently upside-down, resulting in 2232 reverting to its smartphone form, and 2232-A disappearing in a puff of carbon dust. Different species have been recorded to perform different smartphone functions, such as homing pigeons for text messages and pelicans for Airplane Mode. The avian forms of 2232 will stop for food and water along their journeys, rest when tired, and have been known to ride on vehicles to reach their destinations.
  • Body Horror: Don't ever leave them plugged in overnight, or they'll inflate like large balloons.
  • Funny Animal: The SCP is apparently from a dimension where most birds live like inanimate objects, including cassowaries and blue-footed boobies being driven around and flamingos being vehicle insurance bills.
  • Instant Messenger Pigeon: Played with; they are birds that deliver messages, but they're noted to be very impractical as forms of communication.
  • Polly Wants a Microphone: One of its forms is a talking myna. Truth in Television as mynas are among the best talkers in the bird world.
  • Shout-Out: The second part of the name is a reference to Apple's slogan "Think different".
  • Voluntary Shapeshifting: When not being used, it resembles a Samsung Galaxy S4. When taking phone calls or texting is attempted, it will transform into a species of bird and duplicate, with the copy going to the recipient.

SCP-2233 - Sociosophy

SCP-2233 is an academic discipline known as "Sociosophy", which produces anomalous effects through SCP-2233-1, a book labeled "Polylogue – Over the Horizon of Postmodern Relativism", published by "The Club of Friends of Sociosophy” in Prague. The book contains theories on pseudo-academic subjects, such as "Polylogue" as an improvement of conversing, "Problemology" as a discipline concerning various life issues, or "Neonovoplatonism" as a religiously philosophical practice. The anomalous properties of 2233-1 manifest when placed in close proximity to other paper media. After about 3–5 hours, the media starts to mention sociosophy in various forms. SCP-2233-2 is a designation for lectures on various disciplines of sociosophy by people who have read 233-1. These occur mainly in college environments, such as universities, mensas, or fraternities, where 2233-1 instances are often given out. Uncontained 2233-2 events constitute a major containment breach and if left unchecked, amount to a IK class end-of-the-world scenario "Information breakdown".

SCP-2234 - Great Deals on Pineal Removal

SCP-2234 are anomalous computer viruses that are able to take advantage of a class of injection attacks, in which an instance will modify its own contents while in storage, bypassing normal sanitization routines. Two classes of these viruses remain uncontained and have yet to be neutralized: SCP-2234-567 and SCP-2234-727. The former can be used to attach animated graphical advertisements (designated SCP-2234-567-A) to printed documents, often in a way that obscures or obstructs the original text. When a subject makes tactile contact or otherwise touches an instance with any type of pointing device, they frequently report experiencing vivid hallucinations and may contract serious memetic infection or receive bodily harm. The latter causes an infected user's social media contacts to spontaneously send the infected user targeted advertisements. These include unusual references to particular brand names, recommendations that a user purchase a specific product or service, or links to product websites. These advertisements are frequently targeted based on confidential information that the sender would not have any way of knowing.

URA-9611 - The Ozymandias Effect

URA-9611, formerly SCP-2235, is a potent material infohazard affecting data about numerous historical figures. Any non-organic medium storing information about these individuals or URA-9611 will undergo a process of autonomous alteration and/or accelerated decay, largely through being erased from existence. The rate at which this occurs is apparently proportional to three major factors: the availability of the information to a casual observer, the clarity and accuracy of the information, and the quantity of subjects with prior knowledge of the method of conveyance. Affected Organic storage methods experience selective retrograde amnesia, losing all direct memories of both URA-9611 and its subjects over the course of approximately two months.

SCP-2236 - Optical Instrument

SCP-2236 is a cylindrical optical instrument superficially resembling an early-model pocket microscope. One end is equipped with an eyepiece; the other end is flanged at an angle. The lenses and the body of the instrument enclose an airtight chamber between the lenses, filled with a faint phosphorescent gas which has not been analyzed. When a written document is observed through 2236, the content of the text that is examined appears different to the observer.

SCP-2237 - "There is always a cost..."

SCP-2237 are several Foundation-owned spacecraft in solar-synchronous orbit around the sun, at varying locations and of varying design. 2237 all share plasma rocket propulsion, the means of growing food, creating electricity, and purifying air and water on board, the means of automated self-maintenance and repair, and sapient artificial computer programs designed to maintain communication with other Foundation assets, excluding other 2237 instances. Several instances have been outfitted with equipment necessary to facilitate terraforming and human colonization without disrupting post-colonization normality, including causality disruptors, faster-than-light travel, and complete copies of all non-cognitohazardous Foundation documents. Every instance has been programmed to travel to specific extrasolar planets in the event of an Omega activation event. Upon reaching their destination, 2237 will enter a Beta activation state, waking all crew members from stasis and entering orbit around the target planet. The crew and on-board AI construct will identify potential landing sites and monitor the local geology, geography, topography, and meteorology until an optimal landing site has been identified and landing procedures planned.

SCP-2238 - "Broadcasting Live From Out of Time"

SCP-2238 is an anomalous phenomenon primarily affecting television broadcast stations in the Southern United States, manifesting itself as a series of historical documentaries within the affected area. The types of documentary that 2238 affects are primarily made by European or American filmmakers, specifically those that focus on the First and Second World War. During an intrusion, 2238 will play a similar documentary to the one being interrupted. This new documentary, known as SCP-2238-A, will have several deviations from the original, such as different events, different historians, and different actors than those used in the documentary. The exact amount of deviations from the original vary between each instance of 2238-A.

SCP-2239 - Gatherer of Gratitudes

SCP-2239 is an entity that spontaneously experiences involuntary morphological changes, affecting both its appearance and bodily composition. Currently, 2239 maintains the form of a juvenile brown-banded bamboo shark, with wing structures similar to that of a Japanese emperor butterfly sprouting from near its dorsal fin. The creature is believed to be sapient, but generally exhibits behavior consistent with that of non-anomalous organisms. When administered intelligence tests, 2239 exhibited widely different scores, suggesting cognitive instability. The forms it assumes are believed to be reliant on the individual which it considers its primary caregiver; throughout its transformations, it has consistently adopted appearances that elicit positive and protective responses in those who are most often in its presence.

SCP-2240 - Young Floridian Couple

SCP-2240 is a man of Puerto Rican descent who exhibits no anomalous properties or capabilities, aside from manifestations of SCP-2240-2, a spacetime anomaly of an undetermined nature, which appear to be beyond his control and is completely imperceptible by all non-anomalous Foundation technology. 2240-2 is described by 2240 as his boyfriend, who is documented to have died in a car accident in Florida. 2240-2's primary effect is the manipulation of inanimate objects in a manner consistent with the use of human hands, though there have been no confirmed incidents of 2240-2 manipulating objects outside of 2240's immediate vicinity, generally limiting its field of effect to his containment cell. 2240 and 2240-2 are capable of communicating with each other in a manner consistent with typical human interaction, with 2240 reporting being able to see, smell, hear, and touch 2240-2 as if it were physically present.

SCP-2241 - Cameron The Crusader

SCP-2241 is Cameron, a seven-year-old, brown-haired child who possesses minor telekinetic abilities and is showing signs of latent reality bending. More specifically, he shows the ability to manipulate objects he can see within approximately six meters of himself. In addition to this, manipulated objects may teleport or be changed slightly, implying a more general reality bending ability. Cameron is considered a good candidate for long-term/intensive research into telekinesis and reality bending, as well as anomalous humanoids in general. For his proper containment procedures, Cameron, who thinks of himself as a superhero, has been led to believe that the Foundation is an organization of superheroes who maintain custody of him for his protection, and so that they can learn to understand his powers and use them to develop more "superheroes".
  • Abusive Parents: During an interview with him, it's heavily hinted at that Cameron's parents were abusive towards him and to each other, at least on an emotional level. Apparently his powers would subconciously manifest at times when he heard them fighting, after which they would just get "distracted" for a moment before going back to arguing.
  • Beware the Superman: A seven-year-old Reality Warper boy who wants to become a superhero and use his powers for good... By killing all the "bad guys". (Or more specifically, whoever or whatever the Foundation tells him are the "bad guys" he must defeat).
  • Black-and-White Insanity: Sees nothing wrong with killing people with his powers, as long as they are "bad guys". Justified in that 1) he's a seven-year-old child who's been led to believe he's a superhero, and 2) it is noted he actually had an aversion towards violence before the Foundation psychologically screwed him over with their constant testing.
    "I hate them. I'm a Foundation 'venger and I hate the bad guys and I'm gonna fight them all."
  • Child Soldier: What his real role in the Foundation is, while he's gaslighted into believing he's doing superhero work. He's outright called as such by O5-4 during the very heated discussion between the O5 and the Ethics Committee about the situation. Taken to its logical extreme during SCP-5000's Alternate Timeline, where he was used as a living weapon to eradicate not only the GOC, but what was left of humanity.
  • Creepy Child: Not that he actually started as one, though...
  • Goo Goo God Like: Another Type-Green child just like SCP-239, but much, much less powerful than her.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The fact that they could be creating another Able lead to an "order fight" between the head researcher, the Ethics Committee, and the Overseers. The researcher won because they're confident the explosive tracking chip they're going to put in his brain will be enough to neutralize SCP-2241 if he goes out of control. Of course, A) they haven't done it yet and B) Cameron's already demonstrated telekinesis/teleporting abilities...
  • Reality Warper: The true nature of his powers, even though he himself doesn't know it.
  • Restraining Bolt: What the monitoring chip Researcher Valdez wants to implant in his brain is meant to serve as. Whether it will/would actually work or not, that's anyone's guess. It would also double as an Explosive Leash of sorts.
  • Shout-Out:
    SCP-2241: What does SCP mean, mister?
    Valdez: It means "Secure, Contain, Protect"
    SCP-2241: So it fights bad guys? Like SHIELD and the 'vengers?
    Valdez: That's right, Cameron. Like the Avengers.
  • Training from Hell: Cameron's Creepy Child traits only manifested after he became mentally unstable by the merciless testing he went through at the hands of the Foundation researchers, masqueraded as superhero training. The Foundation also simulated situations of real danger where Cameron would get forced into using his powers, either to be a hero (Saving helpless D-Class "civilians") or to save himself. Said situations included but were not limited to hiding a bomb in his personal belongings and a long-range surprise attack by a robotic mortar.
  • Tyke-Bomb: What the Foundation's testing of his abilities has turned him into. It should be noted that the intended main goal of the tests it's not to use him as a Child Soldier to deploy in combat, but to understand better how the brain of an anomalous humanoid works and develops. Or at least, that's what Researcher Valdez claims it is for.
  • Unstable Powered Child: At first, until the Foundation trains him. However, their training results in the boy becoming more powerful and angry, so a conflict between the Ethics Committee and the trainers occurs. The trainers win due to their belief that the explosive tracking chip they implanted in his head will kill him if he tries anything, but his gaining of telekinesis powers leads the readers to believe otherwise.
  • Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: An abused kid with weak, underdeveloped reality-bending powers who loved superhero comics, turned into a Creepy Child Tyke-Bomb "superhero" with way too much power on his hands. And that's not even getting into what could possibly happen if he ever finds out that the Foundation lied to him and has just been using him as a human guinea pig this whole time, or if the Restraining Bolt plan fails horribly...

SCP-2242 - Technical Difficulties

SCP-2242 is a phenomenon affecting FOS 14.1 software and all records accessed using it. 2242 is currently understood to be an extradimensional connection to the intranet servers of the Foundation from an alternate timeline, designated SCP-2242-1. To date, these two versions of the Foundation have only been able to interact by minor footnotes and bibliographic reference alterations to documents with shared intranet locations. Notations from baseline reality have the conventional "Footnotes" titling of the in-text and post-text citations. Access to the 2242-1 version of documents occurs at random intervals when attempting to access any intranet location extant within both realities, and it is understood that this effect is comparable within 2242-1. 2242-1 itself has thus far been understood to conform to the same theories of physics as believed to govern the baseline reality, to which current estimates hypothesize to be approximately 97% identical to said reality.

SCP-2243 - Peep Peepers

SCP-2243 are a pair of Society Finches designated SCP-2243-A and SCP-2243-B, which refer to themselves as “Daisy” and “Thistle”, respectively. While active, any subject within 4.02m of the pair will hear them speaking in the language that the subject is most fluent in, instead of the normal sounds produced by members of their species. The subject is able to converse with the finches with no observable long-term effects, though any subjects outside this radius will perceive them as sounding like normal finches, while also perceiving the subject as imitating "peeping" or "chirping" noises instead of normal human speech or writing, even when viewed remotely. The finches seem to have the intelligence and understanding of a human toddler approximately 2-3 years of age. The pair acknowledge that they are both "different" than other subjects, but possess no knowledge beyond what a normal finch raised for commercial purposes would be expected to know.

SCP-2244 - Partition E

SCP-2244 is a four-story office building located in Miami, belonging to the "Sunset Community Foundation", a registered non-profit organization providing technological components and computer skills training to underprivileged individuals. All records pertaining to the SCF indicate they have existed since 1971, and include legitimate registration and tax-exempt application forms as well as grant records maintained by other businesses, organizations, and corporations. SCP-2244-2 are the employees of the Sunset Community Foundation, all observed instances of which appear to be human females between the ages of 14 and 70. No instance of 2244-2 can be accounted for prior to 2014, nor do they possess records of birth, residence, or home ownership. They have additionally proven to be immune to all forms of amnestics, possess abnormal strength and speed and, if accosted or otherwise restrained, will become catatonic and unresponsive for a period of 30 to 180 seconds before abruptly disappearing. While not hostile, 2244-2 have consistently refused all entry into 2244, and have refused to answer questions regarding their company. Attempts by agents to trail and/or befriend them have been unsuccessful in yielding any information.

SCP-2245 - A Dream's Nightmare

SCP-2245 is a 2 meter quadrupedal mammal with dark brown hair. The creature possesses several traits found in other animals, including a prehensile trunk, tusks, retractable claws on its front and rear limbs, large, circular ears, and a long, thin tail with hair at the end. Despite not displaying sapient qualities, 2245 is highly intelligent, and has predominantly demonstrated positive and playful reactions towards researchers when unprovoked. It further displays protective behavior towards sleeping humans, with the effect being more pronounced for children under the age of thirteen. 2245's anomalous effects manifest when a human subject enters REM sleep while within approximately 5 meters of it. Rather than enter REM sleep, the subject will enter a previously undiscovered phase of sleep (SCP-2245-2). While in 2245-2, a subject will experience a lack of dreams, but will report feeling extremely well rested after awakening, even more so than after experiencing conventional REM sleep. Continued exposure to 2245-2 has shown to cause a slight decrease in the long-term memory, problem solving ability, and mental acuteness. While a human subject is experiencing 2245-2, 2245 activates a second anomaly. While the process is not fully understood, the creature begins a process similar to digestion, seemingly linked to the human brain waves formed in 2245-2, which creates standard nutrients and waste products in the entity's digestive tract.
  • Youkai: SCP-2245 is based off the baku, a youkai that is said to eat nightmares.

SCP-2246 - You Set the Scene

SCP-2246 are volumes written by a Hispanic humanoid who appears around 20 years old, claims to have originated from Brazil, and displays no need for sustenance or bodily functions (SCP-2246-1), identified by the pen-name “Phoenix Snow”. New text manifests in each current unfinished volume as though manually typewritten, at an infrequent and inconsistent rate. A new unfinished volume will manifest with the other volumes when the current volume reaches a conclusion, typically between 10 to 900 pages. All volumes contain little in the way of a linear, coherent narrative, instead being written via stream-of-consciousness. When a page is held open for more than five seconds, the text will be read aloud in 2246-1's disembodied voice, its tone subdued and nervous. The final page of each instance contains an opening which subjects can pass through to enter the space where 2246-1 resides. If this space is accessed from finished volumes, it will display a scene from the story. If 2246-1 is encountered in a finished volume, it will not acknowledge any subjects in the area, and will continue to perform its current actions without speaking.

SCP-2247 - "What did I go through to seek a new employer?"

SCP-2247 is a man capable of speech in Spanish, but unable to comprehend written Spanish. A barcode-shaped birthmark is imprinted on his left thigh, corresponding to a serial number for products manufactured by Abbott Laboratories. When 2247's biological matter is extracted and displaced from him for at least three minutes continuously, it will undergo transmutation into polypropylene, polyethylene, or a mixture of sodium thiopental and sodium carbonate, with masses equal to the matter originally extracted. 2247's verbal communication is restricted to interrogative sentences. Individuals who have perceived and comprehended these vocalizations become susceptible to 2247's interrogative statements, responding according to the respective subjects' factual knowledge and/or sincere opinion on the given topic.
  • Truth Serums: SCP-2247 is literally a bottle of truth serum in the form of a human. Everything it says forces the subject to say the truth.

SCP-2248 - The Temple of Luna Primogenita

SCP-2248 is a shrine on the shore of an uninhabited island in Croatia, in the Adriatic Sea. Its architecture resembles that of the Ancient Roman templum, and inscriptions in Latin and Koine Greek within the shrine reference an entity called "Luna Primogenita". Specimens of purple amaranth and Mediterranean cypress are capable of growing inside 2248, but seeds from other species of plant are unable to germinate, and other plants that have been replanted into 2248 will gradually wither. SCP-2248-A is an approximately two-meter tall statue of the Roman deity Diana, constructed from marble with traces of silver, and affixed onto an altar inside 2248's central chamber. When an individual directly observes 2248-A, their sensory perceptions of the Moon and Sun are altered. Affected subjects are able to see under low light conditions when the Moon is visible in the night sky, and are susceptible to retinopathy through direct observation of the Moon. They are also capable of viewing the Sun directly without detriment, claiming that it is perpetually in a solar eclipse.

SCP-2249 - The Failed Dreamland

SCP-2249 is an extra-dimensional space located inside the hospital of a former Russian town. The area within 2249 resembles an old-growth pine forest, with plant life exhibiting signs of extreme malnourishment and light deprivation. A dim gray "sun" is always stationary within 2249's sky at a 12 pm position, providing a dull light. The space within 2249 is looped internally; any subjects approaching the border will find themselves on the opposite border, with no signs of transition. Entrance to 2249 is through an elevator on the first floor of the hospital, in which is a single Douglas fir on a bed of grass. SCP-2249-1 is the residence of the apparent creator of 2249, whose body is found within. Most of the space within 2249-1 is filled with working machinery and various scrap metal and wiring. This device is functional, as evidenced by the stability of 2249-1, the surrounding area, and the path exiting 2249. Research is focused on replicating this device or increasing its area of effect in order to stabilize the entirety of 2249.
  • Bigger on the Inside: SCP-2249 is an extra-dimensional space that has a total area of about four square kilometers. It is found within a Russian hospital that is of considerably smaller size.
  • Unrealistic Black Hole: SCP-2249 contains several tiny ones (they range from 11 cm to 1.67 m in diameter) that emit gamma radiation; they are designated SCP-2249-2.
  • Gone Horribly Wrong: Its creator originally made it to lift the spirits of the hospital's depressed children, with help from an old man named Charles. It worked well in the beginning, but a month later, SCP-2249-2 instances started appearing, forcing the scientist to have the place evacuated so he could build a stabilizer device to keep the forest's dimension from destroying itself. He was only able to get the device to stabilize the the immediate area around his living quarters before he died from radiation exposure.

    2250- 2299 

SCP-2250 - Duck Hunt

SCP-2250 is a memetic contagion exclusively affecting various species of waterfowl in and around Bloch Park in Selma, Alabama, evidently spread through interspecies communication. Affected animals, designated SCP-2250-1, will cease movement, open their beaks, and produce a series of sounds between 25 - 32 kHz. Dogs within a range of up to 2 km show a general tendency to move towards the point of origin for these sounds. Dogs approaching affected waterfowl and entering a radius of approximately 2 m are prone to being trapped by SCP-2250-2, darkly colored tentacles composed of tissue with a genetic makeup bearing close resemblance to that of the Pacific lugworm. Once a canine approaches, the tentacles will wrap around their prey and allow 2250-1 to swallow them whole. If not fully destroyed, 2250-1 will remain motionless for a period of up to 2 hours, after which it will regurgitate the partially digested remains of the previously ingested dog and revert to its non-anomalous state, showing signs of extreme distress and often trying to flee the immediate area.

SCP-2251 - The Prince

SCP-2251 is a DVD containing an unproduced, unaired episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The episode features Will and Carlton sitting at what appears to be an outdoor cafe. After 1.3 seconds, both characters and all loose items will fall out of frame and into the "sky". The camera then follows Will and Carlton falling into open sky. After approximately 4 minutes, both characters appear to begin suffering from the effects of atmospheric hypoxia, before appearing to lose consciousness. At 12 minutes and 46 seconds, a single object falls in the opposite direction through the frame. After 22 minutes, the episode ends when Will cracks a joke to the camera. When played, the episode will appear to have its vertical and horizontal axes inverted, which persists regardless of the orientation of the viewer. Written descriptions of the episode are similarly inverted, as if they were “flipped-turned upside-down”. The only way for the effect to be temporarily corrected is to hum or sing the show’s theme song.

SCP-2252 - Pulling Clothesline

SCP-2252 is a green nylon clothesline located in England. One end of the line is tied to a hollow, studded metal post 1.5m in height, while the other end terminates in midair with no visible means of support. Any human that grabs, bends, or touches 2252 immediately becomes an instance of SCP-2252-1, bearing various severe deformities, many of which should be debilitating or fatal. Nonetheless, instances are initially alive and show no signs of pain, impaired body function, or bodily distress unless wounded. 2252-1 invariably and immediately exhibit signs of extreme fear, including screaming, trembling, refusal to move, and attempts to attack or flee from any nearby humans. On a few occasions, they have attempted to speak, but their vocalizations did not match any known languages, and in some cases should not have been possible even accounting for their altered physiology.

SCP-2253 - The Alcohol Republic

SCP-2253 is a brewery located in Springfield, New Jersey. Whenever alcoholic beverages are brewed on the premises, they have a 5% chance of being mixed with a protoplasmic substance. The beverages are non-anomalous, with chemical analysis revealing that the protoplasm is identical to ethyl hexanoate. Consumption has shown enhanced taste and flavor, but also mild to severe abdominal discomfort when consumed after consuming British cuisine. A free-floating incorporeal humanoid entity designated SCP-2253-1 resides within 2253, with limited ability to manipulate its surroundings. The entity, in an apparent state of perpetual intoxication, identifies as Stephen Crane, an American politician who served as a delegate to the Continental Congress from 1774 to 1776.

SCP-2254 - The Demon La Hire and the Valley of Lust

SCP-2254 is La Hire, a hostile, massive, incorporeal entity contained within the town of Fallon, Alabama, only visible through infrared cameras. La Hire's form is that of a wildly distorted humanoid, roughly 12.8m in height, with extremely distended arms and six legs, a misshapen neck and face, and thick shoulder length hair. Its skin is dark and mottled, and aside from six eyes arranged in two vertical columns of three per side, its face is otherwise featureless, lacking a nose or mouth. La Hire is seemingly capable of influencing human decision-making by altering cognition and manipulating young humans into copulation who would not otherwise be driven to do so. When a pairing of targets comes together and begins interacting sexually, the being will lower its face to be level with the pair and will stare until the act is finished. There is a significant chance that the mother will become pregnant with an anomalous fetus designated SCP-2254-1. Subjects who become pregnant as a result of La Hire’s influence will experience rapid growth of 2254-1’s fetal structure, which will quickly take on non-human characteristics. As they develop, 2254-1 will take increasingly more resources away from their mothers, starving them to encourage their own expedited growth.
  • Body Horror: Par for the course for the once-human Knights of Apollyon. SCP-2254 is inhumanly large, has four extra legs sticking out of his back, a blank face with six eyes, and genitalia replaced by boils that can reach out like limbs.
  • Cain and Abel: Implied. The interviewee mentions that "Jack" always seems scared and concerned when talking about his brothers, presumably the other knights of Apollyon.
  • Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: Played with. SCP-2254 seems to spawn -1 instances via human women, but the intercourse is done normally with human men, though SCP-2254 watches the act closely. The child also develops quickly, consuming most of the mother's body. The mother is then compelled to breastfeed them until she dies. Also, SCP-2254 is not an alien, but a cursed early human.
  • Seven Deadly Sins: La Hire embodies the sin of Lust, as everything he causes revolves around sex and intercourse. This is significant, since the other Knights also embody sins.
  • Squick: A lot of it invoked. SCP-2254 induces sexual urges in young adults, watch them closely during intercourse, and the resulting child will almost always be an SCP-2254-1 instance, malformed humanoids who are extremely prone to sexual violence.
  • Was Once a Man: SCP-2254 was once La Hire, one of the knights of House Apollyon from SCP-4840, until he submitted to the profanities of the Fae.
  • Wretched Hive: The Foundation deliberately keeps the town of Fallon, Alabama as one to prevent its inhabitants from leaving and letting SCP-2254 follow them and to dissuade people from outside the town from entering and potentially letting SCP-2254 affect them.

SCP-2255 - The Most Interesting Rainstorm in the World

SCP-2255 is a localized weather phenomenon that takes the shape of a cumulus humilis cloud measuring roughly three meters. 2255 is sapient and capable of speech, generally speaking English in a low-pitched male voice, having claimed itself to be a creation/envoy of the Hawaiian flower goddess Kokio. 2255’s average altitude ranges from five to twenty meters, though during cloudy or overcast days it tends to hover close to the island’s trees. 2255 is able to move independently, though its maximum observed speed is 15 km/h. Its presence is accompanied by a strong aroma, often compared to that of floral perfume. Additionally, it has exhibited anomalous precipitation, including rain made of a concentrated fructose and water solution, snow made from frost-covered hibiscus petals, and hail made from princess-cut diamonds.
Shout-Out: It's essentially The Most Interesting Man in the World as a sentient storm cloud.

SCP-2256 - Very Tall Things

SCP-2256 was a species of gigafauna endemic to the South Pacific Ocean around the islands of Polynesia. 2256 was one of the very few recorded species known to have developed rudimentary perceptual camouflage, rendering them nearly impossible for other sentient beings to perceive or remember unless said beings had ingested an herbal drug. Resembling spindly, vertically elongated giraffes or brachiosauruses, adults grew to over 1,000 meters in height and weighed 4 tons, with most of their mass being "camouflaged" by a very similar adaptation. With broad, dish-shaped feet, they were able to walk directly on the surface of the ocean without sinking. They were reluctant to approach land, especially inhabited islands, usually staying more than 30 kilometers offshore.were a species of gargantuan sauropod-like creatures that lived in the ocean around Polynesia. Ever since the Foundation started studying them, knowledge about the creatures has faded over time, and the last one died in 2006.
  • Endangered Species: Ever since the Foundation began to study them, their health and fertility began to decline, and their population began dropping sharply since 1994 until the last individual died in 2006.
  • Gentle Giant Sauropod: Described as resembling elongated brachiosaurs, and were absolutely massive, reaching heights over a kilometer. Despite this, the Maikiti natives characterized them as well-meaning and friendly.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The Foundation learned that SCP-2256 was physically harmed by observing them, meaning that the Foundation's ongoing passive observation of the species was intense enough to cause their population decline and extinction.
  • Painting the Medium: The very last two paragraphs show that the SCP's anti-memetic effect has spread to textual documents even with amnestic doses, and the occurrence of text getting censored out increases towards the bottom of the document.
  • Perception Filter: They have an anti-memetic camouflage that renders them nearly impossible for other sentient beings to perceive or remember. This is necessary for their survival, as they are harmed from direct observation. Furthermore, any data written about them "corrodes" over time, with photo images and recordings fading fastest.
  • Posthumous Character: The entire species is extinct, and the document is about the data recorded while they were still alive. They're still considered Euclid as their antimemetic effects linger long after their extinction.
  • Weaksauce Weakness: SCP-2256 instances began to suffer from illness, stillbirth, and infertility some time after the Foundation started studying them. It turned out that direct observation of SCP-2256 was injurious to them, and when a field generator that penetrated the anti-memetic effect allowed a camera to take a close-up photo of one instance, it instantly died. The Foundation's ongoing passive observation was hypothesized to be killing them, and eventually drove them extinct.

SCP-2257 - House God

SCP-2257 is a one bedroom, two bathroom house in a suburban development located in Wisconsin. Approximately 48 hours after entering 2257 by any means, all objects within the house become an instance of SCP-2257-1, gaining sapience and the capability to speak English. 2257-1 instances do not physically change forms, but gain individualized personalities, voices, and consciousnesses. All instances claim to be the sole deity of their respective physical representation, such as "god of chairs". The instances maintain a set of order throughout 2257, often rearranging themselves when shifted to retain their state of balance. When objects that are not currently an instance of 2257-1 are introduced on the premises, instances will try to deter the subject from remaining within the home until the 48-hour threshold has passed, at which point the new instance is welcomed, so long as another occurrence of the same object does not already exist.

SCP-2258 - The Great Escape

SCP-2258 are thirty-six helium party balloons in a variety of colors. The balloons are sentient and capable of human speech, and are capable to a degree of flying under their own power. They can control the direction they float, but cannot exceed self-powered velocities of more than 0.5 m/s. Each balloon has an individual personality, identity, and memories, and refers to itself with a common Western name, identifying as either male or female. 2258 vocalize constantly, with periods of silence more than twenty seconds being extremely rare. They acknowledge nearly everything they see or do, including changing direction in mid-air, seeing another member of 2258, or bumping into the walls or ceiling. They speak with high-pitched, child-like voices, rarely using full sentences, and have very simple and upbeat personalities.

SCP-2259 - Survival of the Foetest

SCP-2259 is a glass fish tank measuring lined with a gravel substrate, with under-tank filters and fluorescent lights set into a plastic hood fitted to the top of the tank. When properly maintained with salt water, 2259 is capable of spontaneously generating up to 150-200 human embryos. Instead of implanting onto a placental wall, these blastocysts will be free-swimming. At irregular intervals, a blastocyst will approach another and begin stripping off surface cells until it has killed off the target blastocyst. If sufficient food is provided, approximately 15% of the blastocysts will be consumed in the first four weeks, increasing if insufficient food is provided. At some point from week 34 to week 40, the sole remaining fetus or fetuses will breach the water and begin to give an auditory cry. Once removed from the water, the fetus is considered born, and will be referred to as an instance of SCP-2259-2, identical to normal human infants in nearly all respects.

SCP-2260 - Traveler's Journal

SCP-2260 is a green composition book with no markings or names on the front cover, which contains 200 wide ruled pages. Use of 2260 puts subjects in a temporary coma and causes them to dream of visiting the location specified in their writing. Subjects do not physically manifest at the location, but events that take place in the coma will affect their physical body. Anyone wishing to travel using 2260 must write in the past tense, specify a place the subject they wish to go, and what length of time they wish to stay at said place. Upon awakening, subjects have been shown to have exact recollections of the events in the coma.
  • Healing Factor: When a human being is exploring a remote area using SCP-2260, their body will heal from injury at ten times the normal rate.
  • Remote, Yet Vulnerable: After writing a location in SCP-2260, the writer falls into a coma and their astral double explores the location. While their body is in the coma, they are totally vulnerable to attack.

SCP-2261 - Community Policing

SCP-2261 is an ongoing phenomenon occurring throughout an English town. When any person within legal borders of the town perpetrates a petty crime within a populated public area, a minimum of two instances of SCP-2261-1 will emerge from the crowd. Instances of 2261-1 appear to be adults wearing high-visibility police vests and continuously vocalizing a loud noise similar to a standard British police siren. Anyone directly viewing an instance will believe it to be a British police car with blacked-out windows, and will behave accordingly to the situation. Subjects will often show surprise at the sudden appearance of an instance and will often attempt to flee the instances under the fear of arrest for their crimes. If caught, the instance will transport the subject to the local police station, which they will then enter believing to be escorted by a police officer. 2261-1 will then place itself in a nearby parking space and cease all signs of higher brain power.

SCP-2262 - The Maddening Font

SCP-2262 is a small scrap of paper torn from the lower right-hand corner of a standard notepad, featuring only an upper-case “B” written in black ink. 2262’s cognitohazardous properties will be activated when any individual who has any interest in typesetting, design, comic books, or any level of aesthetic appreciation of typefaces or composition, looks at the item. Upon looking, the individual will become increasingly irritated and fascinated by the letter, displaying increased hostility towards it and its aesthetic shortcomings, real or imagined. These feelings of hostility seem to be dependent largely on the individual’s preferred artistic or aesthetic training or inclinations, and focus on whatever aspect of the letter the individual has most knowledge of.

SCP-2263 - The Skeleton Gallery

SCP-2263 are 62 anatomically identical sculptures of a human skeleton, all of which are made out of various anomalous materials. Each skeleton is held together with silver wire and mounted on a 5 cm thick lithium carbide disk, with a radius of 0.3 meters. Every instance of 2263 has a descriptive tag affixed to its third left rib, written in Dutch with the same handwriting. Each skeleton also produces anomalous effects dependent on their respective material, such as a peculiar odor, blinking in and out of existence, or producing musical notes when struck.

SCP-2264 - In the Court of Alagadda

SCP-2264 is an iron door located within a hidden chamber beneath Martin Tower of the Tower of London, which requires a highly ritualized process to unlock. Attached to the door is a complex apparatus composed of alchemical tools such as alembics, retorts, and a crucible. Through still undetermined means, a mechanism within 2264 responds to the completed solution, causing it to allow access to will generate a portal to Alagadda (SCP-2264-1), home of the Hanged King; an extradimensional city which does not correspond to any known location. Those who enter Alagadda report having all personal belongings removed and their clothes replaced with outfits which resemble those worn at masquerade balls. The majority of Alagadda's inhabitants are dressed and adorned in a similar fashion, with agents reporting a somewhat organic quality to their costumes, frequently describing it as "chitinous".
  • Alien Geometries: The architecture of SCP-2264 is non-Euclidean and law of gravity isn't consistent. The city's inhabitants can be seen climbing a stairway upside-down, but as they see it gravity is normal.
  • Alien Sea: The city inside SCP-2264 is surrounded by a black ocean. The nature of the liquid is unknown but it appears to be more viscous than water.
  • Alien Sky: The sky over the city in SCP-2264 is colored yellow and filled with an unknown number of black stars. The stars don't match any known Earth constellations.
  • "Ass" in Ambassador: The Ambassador of Alagadda. Will do horrible things to you and make you do horrible things just because it can.
  • Beethoven Was an Alien Spy: The portal to Alagadda was created by Henry Percy, the 9th Earl of Northumberland while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London. Other figures from Elizabethan England, such as Elizabeth I's advisor and noted occultist John Dee may have also helped create the portal.
  • Deal with the Devil: The Hanged King is sought out by various extradimensional travellers for "boons".
  • Deliberately Monochrome: The only colors one can see are black, white, red, and yellow, and if the Ambassador's around the colors become hazy and "grayish".
  • Den of Iniquity: Everyone loves the Hall of Mercurial Virtue.
  • Dream Land: Alagadda is not quite as horrific as readers of The Hanged King's Tragedy would have guessed, so long as you can avoid the Ambassador and the King. Visitors feel as though they're running on dream logic: locations shift, time is hard to tell, and trying to read is headache-inducing in spite of the Universal Translator.
  • Eldritch Abomination: The Ambassador, the Hanged King (described as a "god-shaped hole"), and the four (currently three) masked lords.
  • Eldritch Location: With Alien Geometry, a black and viscous Alien Sea, and yellow Alien Sky with an unknown number of black stars.
    Dr. Calixto Narváez: The true name of SCP-2264-B is Alagadda, a city-state said to border the Nevermeant.
  • Feathered Fiend: The Wandsman of Kul-Manas, who's actually pretty friendly aside from his dismissiveness to whatever backwater dimension one of the masked lords was exiled to.
  • Mask Power: Every being that enters has their clothes replaced with Venetian Carnival clothes and given a mask, the only item that can't be removed.
  • Reality Warper: The Masked Lords are described as potentially some of the highest-level reality benders known to the Foundation. One shudders to imagine the power of the Ambassador or, heavens help us, the King.
  • Sole Survivor: It leaves one Foundation operative alive to tell the tale.
    Agent Alexander Papadopoulos: In the end, I was the only one left alive — surrounded by the corpses of my ravaged friends and comrades. I understand now. The Ambassador needed a witness, one to deliver its message. To tell you this…
  • Spare a Messenger: Mobile Task Force Psi-9 ("Abyss Gazers") is sent into the city beyond SCP-2264 in an attempt to determine the threat level of the Ambassador of Alagadda and King of Alagadda. When they meet the Ambassador he kills all but one member of MTF Psi-9. During his debriefing the survivor says "The Ambassador needed a witness, one to deliver its message." The message is what the witness saw in the face of the King: "A god shaped hole. The barren desolation of a fallen and failed creation. You see the light of long dead stars. Your existence is nothing but an echo of a dying god's screams."

SCP-2265 - Dinner with Andrew

SCP-2265 was a localized two hour time loop affecting a twenty-square meter area of the defunct Italian restaurant Mario’s. The loop was impermeable and self-containing; no items could enter or exit the time loop, including SCP-2265-A and SCP-2265-B, college history professors Masahiro Goto and Andrew Verit. When the loop was active, neither professor was observed to age, nor were they unaware of any changes in the environment surrounding the loop, perceiving it as being unchanged. Goto demonstrated an awareness of the time loop and its previous iterations, attempting either to exit it or make the best of his scenario whereas Andrew did not.
  • Fate Worse than Death: Subverted. Being trapped in a time loop box where no one outside it can hear you and your only companion being unable to retain memories between loops may seem like one of these, but Masahiro managed to cope with it by talking with Andrew about anything for over 20 years. They apparently never ran out of things to talk about, and Masahiro never regrets his time stuck in the loop.
  • "Groundhog Day" Loop: SCP-2265 was localized version of this. Only the small area Masahiro and Andrew were in was affected by the loop.

SCP-2266 - For the World to Dictate Her Death

SCP-2266 is a series of DVD-Rs commonly appearing in video stores and online third-party retailers, appearing as a copy of the lost Marx Brothers film "Humor Risk". The discs contain snippets of the film interspersed with added content, variously described as pornographic imagery or arbitrary footage of men engaging in silent dialogue. Viewing 2266 in its entirety causes SCP-2266-2, a 27 year old woman of average height and build, to manifest in the immediate vicinity of the individual. Individuals witnessing 2266-2 to experience a systematic alteration in their mental faculties, resulting in a neurological condition in which the individuals are unable to perceive her in any way. A second manifestation by a previously exposed individual causes her to be physically unable to interact with the individual and all inanimate objects within 10-20 meters.

SCP-2267 - Vibrations

SCP-2267 is an entity or group that uploads anomalous content to video-sharing sites under a series of unrelated and nonsensical online handles. The accounts themselves have proven untraceable. The videos contain footage of musical performances, interviews, and advertisements featuring unknown musical artists. Despite the depicted popularity of these artists, personnel have concluded these recordings are not being produced in the Foundation's standard timeline and/or reality. Performances depict fantastical and surrealistic venues, as well as the utilization of technology beyond current mundane capability.

SCP-2268 - Loaf Page

SCP-2268 is an anomalous website superficially similar to non-anomalous search pages. Instead of conducting a routine search, the input bar instead loads pages from any URL. Once a page has been loaded, an alert window will prompt the user to "loaf page" by inserting a slice of bread into their disk drive. Upon insertion of the bread slice, the page will show a loading screen with the words "downloafing" displayed above a loading bar in the shape of a baguette. During this process, the bread inserted into the disk drive will be toasted. When the user eats the toast, they will anomalously acquire all the information on the page loaded on the website.

SCP-2269 - Grandma Spider

SCP-2269 is an elderly Irish-American woman, 87 years of age, who suffers from a mild case of Alzheimer's, but is otherwise physiologically normal. SCP-2269-2 is a colony of spiders that appears to inhabit 2269’s body, consisting of over 20,000 individuals from over 580 identified species. Instances have been observed freely moving through her clothing and entering and exiting her orifices without generating discomfort in any way. 2269-2's primary purpose appears to be the maintenance of 2269's health. Whenever she is injured, 2269-2 will work together to attempt repairs of the damage inflicted with their silk. 2269 is either unable or unwilling to communicate with Foundation personnel regarding her current condition, but expresses agitation when instances of 2269-2 are removed for testing purposes.
  • Body Horror: SCP-2269-1 (the titular grandma) is infested by a colony of spiders (SCP-2269-2) that repair any of her injuries with their silk and freely move in and out of her orifices (without causing her pain, however).
  • Cool Old Lady: She's 87 years old and has been described as being really nice by one of her neighbors.
  • The Voiceless: She doesn't talk.

SCP-2270 An Unnecessary Utilization of Excessive Force

SCP-2270 is a collection of occult information, incantations, and rituals pertaining to Nergal, the Mesopotamian god of war and the Sun. The information can take many forms, but it is believed that the original source of these incantations is a series of eight texts by Renaissance author and philosopher Sorin Vasilica. These texts, collectively translated Appeal to Ereshkigal and designated SCP-2270-A, are written in sporadic, occasionally nonsensical prose, which will occasionally devolve into extremely intricate and complicated explanations of rituals and incantations required to persuade Nergal to attack a large, overwhelming enemy force with a force exceeding most modern nuclear weapons. The ritual has only been successfully completed once by Jerry Hubert of Augusta, Montana, with the Foundation acquiring his edition of the texts from his car after he crashed into a tree while drunk driving and died instantly.
  • Complexity Addiction: Jerry Hubert's solution to not being able to convince the police to take action against Dave is to spend $75,000 on a 8-volume-long series of books containing an incredibly intricate and complex ritual that could destroy overwhelming opponents, and use it himself against Dave.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: Jerry Hubert smote his neighbor Dave with divine wrath for parking in the wrong place and letting his dog poop on Jerry's lawn.
  • Does Not Speak Common: Nergal is too far above humanity to understand any of our forms of communication; he doesn't even directly understand his wife's language.
  • Evil Is Petty: Jerry Hubert went to the trouble of paying $75, 000 to obtain all eight volumes of Appeal to Ereshkigal, completing the ludicrously overcomplicated ritual and reading a 400-page-long prayer without pausing or misspeaking even once, all to the end of invoking Nergal to smite enemies with a force exceeding that of a nuclear explosion and at the cost of eternal enslavement in the afterlife...to get revenge on his neighbour for letting his dog shit on his lawn.
  • Giant Hands of Doom: Nergal manifests as a giant hand reaching down from the sun to crush the ritual's target
  • Hoist by His Own Petard: If the pursuant fails the ritual at its final stage (reading a 400-page long prayer without ever pausing or misspeaking), Nergal smites them instead of their target. This is believed to have happened to the original author of the texts, Sorin Vasilica.
  • Laser-Guided Karma:
    • Almost everyone who attempts to use the ritual outlined in Appeal to Ereshkigal to invoke Nergal to smite their enemies ends up being smote themselves due to failing to complete all the ridiculously convoluted steps, including the text's author Sorin Vasilica.
    • Jerry succeeds in completing the almost impossible ritual to summon Nergal and using it to smite his annoying neighbour, then decides to celebrate by drinking an entire 12-pack of beer, crashes his car into a tree while driving drunk and dies immediately.
  • Language Barrier: Two of them; the ritualist must first translate their request into Ereshkigal's language, and then she has to convey it to Nergal via sex, because they don't share a language either.
  • "Leave Your Quest" Test: The 6th volume, Acceptance of Eternal Consequences, acts as one for the pursuant, warning them of the horrible consequences that will befall them even if they do complete the ritual correctly- namely, that upon death they will be condemned to Nergal's sun furnace to eternally stoke the flames of its hatred. Jerry didn't think it was for real.
  • Mundane Utility: A curse that brings down the wrath of Nergal upon an overwhelming enemy force? Perfect for getting rid of your annoying neighbor.
  • No Kill like Overkill: The ritual is intended to completely destroy entire armies (and the estimated energy release is comparable to volcanic eruptions and the most powerful nuclear weapons ever built). Jerry used it against one normal human man.
  • Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Jerry Hubert managed to successfully complete 6 volumes worth of intricate rituals followed by reciting a 400+ page prayer perfectly, and all the Foundation saw was the results of the ritual going off.
  • Recursive Translation: The books are written in Romanian, the ritual involves translating your request into Ereshkigal's language, and she in turn translates the request into Nergal's language so he can do the smiting.

SCP-2271 - Factory Loans

SCP-2271 is a phenomenon currently affecting small populations in the American midwest. 2271 manifests directly as a plain white envelope containing a letter detailing collections of student loans. After initial delivery, subjects who receive the letter, designated SCP-2271-A, become extremely agitated and obsessed with the repayment of the amount owed. They will begin to sell all of their personal belongings and assets, attempting to mail the collected cash to an address listed on the letter. Attempting to hinder 2271-A from making these payments will often lead to violent outbursts by the subject, who will aggressively maintain that they must meet the impossible repayment schedule or face consequences from the collection agency. During this phase, 2271-A will begin to claim seeing unclear, humanoid entities on the edge of their vision, "fast-moving" and "clouded in thick smoke". Ultimately, the debtor will inevitably die from having sold off vital organs, or disasppear as a result of the punishment for failing to pay.
  • Evil Debt Collector: SCP-2271-1 imposes an impossible-to-pay debt on the victim, then drives them mad with visual hallucinations of shadowy figures and a violent desire to pay off the debt by any means necessary, including emptying monetary accounts and selling off possessions, their loved ones, and their own body parts. When the debtor inevitably fails to pay up a second time, they vanish as the consequence of the outstanding debt.
  • Failure Is the Only Option: No matter what actions SCP-2271-1 victims take, they will die. Either they die from removing their own organs to sell them, they sell their entire remaining body, or they disappear after the second time they fail the payment deadline.
  • Senseless Sacrifice: Victims will attempt to pay off the debt by any means, even if it involves selling off their needs and their own bodies...yet never at any point will their debt ever decrease.
  • Shockingly Expensive Bill: The exact amount is redacted, but it's stated that even if you sell off everything on the entire planet, you would still not pay off the debt fully.
  • You Are Already Dead: The moment you receive an instance of SCP-2271-1, you're pretty much screwed, since you now have an impossibly large debt and the inevitable consequence of failing to pay it off is that you vanish. Assuming you don't ship your entire body away before then. Which also is implied to kill you, since items you ship off for the purpose of paying off the debt disappear once you pack them, never to be seen again.

SCP-2274 - He Stands

SCP-2274 is a metallic statue of an indeterminate color, depicting a humanoid figure, with a clearly defined torso and head with limbs that taper to points, standing upright on a square base. Any human being who views 2274 will halt all activity and assume a neutral standing position, staring fixedly at the statue. Subjects seem incapable of autonomously performing any task other than remaining upright, including the basic requirements for living, succumbing to dehydration when left alone. Subjects under the influence of 2274 do not respond to communication unless asked “What do you do?”, to which they invariably respond “I stand as he stands.” When asked “What does he do?”, they invariably respond “He stands because he must.” If the subject is forced to assume a seated position, or if 2274 is removed from a subject’s line of sight, the subject will react violently, attacking whomever is instigating the change until incapacitated.
  • And I Must Scream: Anyone who sees the statue is compelled to keep looking at it without concern for their own welfare, until they die from dehydration. Thus far, the effect has been permanent for anyone affected by it.note 
  • Berserk Button: Do not remove the statue from the line of sight of anyone affected. They will beat you up.
  • Brown Note: Don't ever look at the statue, or even at a photograph of it, if you want to live.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: The first victim didn't like the result of her commission, so the artist made something she couldn't take her eyes off.
  • No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: In connection with Berserk Button, anyone who breaks the line of sight can expect one of these.

SCP-2275 - Where Muses Go

SCP-2275 is an unobservable entity which generates and sends mail to individuals in the vicinity of Ljubljana, Slovenia with an interest in philately. Correspondence sent by 2275 always bears a Kollwitz Stamp, along with sufficient postage for delivery, but no return address. In each case, the contents are a single sheet of paper folded into thirds, featuring a handwritten phrase in Slovenian. Intended recipients are subject to a series of local disturbances in reality, which rise in frequency and intensity if the affected individual continuously obtains and catalogs stamps. Subjects receiving correspondence from 2275 have been recorded experiencing Kollwitz Stamps appearing spontaneously in their pockets and personal belongings, the manifestation of human bones within their residence, and markings in black ink appearing on sheets of blank paper within their vicinity.

SCP-2276 - Too many GRACE

SCP-2276 is a class of artificial satellites orbiting various bodies in pairs. Each pair is an exact duplicate of the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment satellites by NASA, originally launched on March 17, 2002. The satellites are functional and will respond to commands transmitted to them, but said transmissions must be aimed directly to avoid accidentally commanding multiple instances at once. New satellites are known to spontaneously manifest in orbit around Earth or other bodies. 991 instances have been discovered to date, 347 of which are not in orbit of Earth.

SCP-2277 - Andronika Optima Maxima

SCP-2277 is an autonomous program of unknown origin which regularly engages in harassing phone calls to individuals via pre-recorded voices and unusual bursts of noise. 2277 records these calls and uploads audio with accompanying video to various sites under the guise of popular "Soundboard Prank Calls", being labeled instances of SCP-2277-A. The videos often feature victims becoming enraged at the persistent abuse and spam, and involves the interspersing humorous images and video clips to designate certain speakers. Attempts to decode the bursts of noise have variably revealed them to be fragments of apparently mundane conversation between unknown persons. Individuals exposed to 2277-A gradually develop a persistent delusion involving a fictitious individual, faction, or nation going by the name "Andronika". Depending on the individual, lack of universal knowledge of "Andronika" will lead to increased scrutiny of recent historical record and the perpetuation of certain conspiracy theories involving the destruction and suppression of any and all information relating to it/them.

SCP-2278 - Und ruhig fließt der Rhein

SCP-2278 is a sound pattern originating from a cave near the town of Sankt Goarshausen in Germany. Direct exposure to the sound within this cave causes catatonia and a significant perceptual time dilation. After-effects manifesting as dysthymia or low-grade clinical melancholy are known to last for months after exiting. The entrance tunnel leads into an underground hall occupied by the carcass of a creature laying in a pool of red water which produces the sound pattern. The carcass, designated SCP-2278-A, resembles a blue whale in an advanced state of decay, though it also possesses several features reminiscent of a human being, with misshapen arms and legs, a mane of blonde hair, and a human-like, feminine face.

SCP-2279 - THE PEOPLE'S PET STORE

SCP-2279 is a Tennessee pet store known as "THE PEOPLE'S PET SHOP", which is occupied by domesticated animals designated SCP-2279-A, and humanoid entities designated SCP-2279-B. 2279-A are almost always seriously wounded in some manner, such as missing limbs, mutilated faces, and infected gashes, but cannot be killed by any conventional means. Upon entering 2279, a subject will either be ignored by the entities until they leave, or will be approached by an instance of 2279-B, who will insist that the subject purchase a specific 2279-A specimen. Weeks after purchase, wounds covering 2279-A begin to heal, transferring onto the subject. The subject will ignore the changes in both themselves and the instance, forgoing eating, drinking, and sleeping in order to care for the entity. The transfer of injuries continues to the point where 2279-A is fully healed and the subject is incapable of physically moving, whereupon the animal will consume the subject and disappear.

SCP-2280 - Extra Nightly Cow

SCP-2280 is a female cow whose tissues absorb all electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength between 370 nm and 770 nm. This results in 2280 appearing as a pure black silhouette from any angle. If any vertebrate weighing more than 2 kg comes within 5.25 m of the cow, there is a 50% probability that it will become neuromuscularly paralyzed. If this occurs, 2280 will approach the paralyzed animal and consume it over 1.5 hours. The following sunrise, 2280 will go into labor and give birth to an instance of SCP-2280-1, an animal of identical morphology to the creature it last consumed that emits light at 100,000 lux equally along the entire wavelength spectrum of 370-770 nm.

SCP-2281 - Backseat Driver

SCP-2281 is a 1.2 km stretch of road near Delta, Utah, which was formerly part of Route 50. Irregular auditory anomalies occur in vehicles which travel along the road at a speed higher than the previously posted speed limit of 60 miles per hour. The anomalies manifest in the backseat on the driver's side of the vehicle, initially voicing a request for the driver to slow their vehicles to comply with the speed limit. Manifestations tend to occur more frequently in situations that involve circumstances which impair driver performance.

SCP-2282 - Goat.

SCP-2282 was a female mammal externally identical to a common domesticated goat. 2282's digestive tract was a highly non-Euclidean array of spatial distortions warped to increase its internal volume to at least seventeen thousand cubic meters, consisting of over 8000 separate stomachs. The digestive tract is complicated and nonlinear with seemingly no organized purpose. The total mass of 2282 is at least sixteen million kilograms, but externally appears to have a normal mass for a goat of its apparent breed. 2282 consumes matter by incorporating the space containing said matter into its own body. The space is removed from an area near the mouth while grazing, and manipulated so its exterior is shrunk as it is transported to the digestive tract.
  • Alien Geometries: SCP-2282 appeared to be a normal goat. Its digestive tract was a set of non-Euclidean spatial distortions that increased its internal volume to at least 17,000 cubic meters, made up of more than 8,000 separate stomachs.
  • Bigger on the Inside: Before it was euthanized, SCP-2282's digestive tract had a volume of at least 17,000 cubic meters due to its non-Euclidean nature.
  • Body Horror: While alive, its gigantic digestive tract was contained in a goat-sized package. However, once euthanized, the non-Euclidean digestive tract became Euclidean, resulting in an "explosion" of goat entrails—though "explosion" isn't quite the right word. It was more like a sixty-seven meter bubble of new space, filled with goat entrails, emerged from the animal, which displaced the already-existing space, essentially warping reality itself. As a result, the injuries sustained by the researchers wasn't just mere trauma, but described as "anatomical deformation"—as in, they were warped along with reality.
  • Extreme Omnigoat: Taken to ludicrous degrees, as it "eats" by simply incorporating the space around objects that enters its mouth into its digestive tract and has more than enough digestive tract to hold it. Post-mortem examination found that the contents of its stomachs included 11 rocks, a stainless steel dresser, almost 200 glue sticks, and an entire giraffe skeleton.
  • Posthumous Character: The goat in question is deceased as of its article's latest in-universe edit. Incidentally, its death ended up causing much more trouble than it did while alive.

SCP-2283 - Spirit Bomb

SCP-2283 is a collection of 287 individual explosive devices of varying design, yield, age, and manufacture, including hand grenades, timed charges, and field ordnance. 2283 instances resemble traditional explosives in most respects, including non-anomalous mechanical and electronic components, wiring, and blasting caps. However, the explosive component of each 2283 instance is composed of SCP-2283-A, an unknown material superficially resembling RDX with several unexplained physical properties. Every recorded detonation has resulted in damage to nearby inanimate objects as would otherwise be expected for a non-anomalous RDX device of an equivalent yield. People within the blast radius will not suffer the effects of said explosion, but will instantaneously vanish along with from known space, becoming incorporeal entities known as SCP-2283-B. Instances are unable to perceive or interact with each other directly and do not appear to require sustenance or conditions required for homeostasis in non-anomalous humanoids.

SCP-2284 - Mr. Lie

See Characters.SCP Foundation Misters.

SCP-2285 - Cloudivores

SCP-2285 are seven different species of extant birds able to camouflage themselves by taking on the appearance of their environment. When cloaked, the light around an individual bird appears to bend, being the only indication of their presence. These birds require only condensed water vapor for nourishment, possessing a particular preference in regard to specific types of cloud. Regardless of the preference, all specimens will consume any type of water vapor if hungry enough, creating a vacuum with an inhalation limit far past what their lungs would allow.

SCP-2286 - If You Build a Better Mousetrap...

SCP-2286 is a handmade electrical device superficially resembling a bipolar Tesla coil. On the base of the device is a switch labeled "ON/OFF" and a pair of dials labeled "RANGE" and "SPEED". When active, anomalous effects can be observed in any viable genetic material in rodents within range of the object. At close range, this effect consists of a force of indeterminate origin similar to magnetic attraction that will pull rodents towards the object until it comes to rest against the surface or other attracted material. The “RANGE” dial can adjust the effective range of homing behavior from between 10 to 40 kilometers, while the “SPEED” dial can manipulate the force density of the attraction within the proximate area of effect to between 2,500 and 17,000G. At low force density, fractures are common, but death can occur from asphyxiation, embolisms, or circulatory collapse. At high force density, dismemberment and pulverization of the skeleton has been observed.

SCP-2287 - Mr. Headless

See Characters.SCP Foundation Misters.

SCP-2288 - Copy of A

SCP-2288 is a 19 year old Caucasian college student who produces deceased duplicates of herself under specific circumstances. The copies (labeled SCP-2288-A) appear physically and genetically identical to 2288, and occupy the same time and space as her, disappearing when she is moved. She has displayed no voluntary control over the manifestation of duplicates, which appear to be related to physical altercations her life is in peril. Autopsies performed upon 2288-A have failed to determine a likely source for them, or any anomalous features inconsistent with 2288 herself.
  • Alternate Self: SCP-2288-A are versions of SCP-2288 extracted from other timelines where she did die from the situations that put her in peril. SCP-2288-B is from a timeline where she was transported to the main Foundation universe for whatever reason but spawned in through SCP-2288's ability.

SCP-2289 - The Devils' Eyes

SCP-2289 is a novel strain of Devil Facial Tumor Disease, ordinarily common in the Tasmanian devil, that is able to spread to additional vertebrates by introduction of infected tissue to skin lesions. The strain’s progression results in multiple metastasizing tumors growing over infected vertebrates, largely concentrating on the craniofacial region and the throat. What classifies the strain as anomalous is that the created tumors generate fully functional eyes, with ocular eruption occurring between 5-7 days after first appearance. Infected vertebrates are not only capable of seeing through these eyes, but the eyes of all other infected vertebrates' tumors.

SCP-2290 - It's fine.

SCP-2290 is an effect centered around a house in Stockbridge, Massachusetts inhabited by a family of three (identified as SCP-2290-1). At 0500 local time, the family will immediately be relocated to this house regardless of their current location. Additionally, injury to any of them will be immediately healed. Any individual around 2290's primary residence will lose any memory of the family beyond baseline knowledge. Despite the anomaly's 15 year containment, 2290-1 invariably appear to have an age consistent with these details.

SCP-2291 - FUN BOX

SCP-2291 is a corrugated cardboard box with an edge length of 15cm. The word “FUN” is printed in large, black capital letters on each side. D-Class personnel have reported a rattling noise issuing from the box when moved, suggesting that it contains one or more smaller objects. Direct physical contact with 2291 is to be considered a cognitohazard, as those who make contact are designated SCP-2291-A. Instances involuntarily replace some adjectives with the word “fun” and smile continuously. Subjects repeatedly exposed to 2291 become reliant on its effects to experience pleasure. When isolated, these subjects temporarily lose their ability to normally process endorphins. In addition to a suppressed ability to experience pleasure, these individuals experience restlessness, sweating, and headaches.

SCP-2292 - Gorilla beringei necromantiae

SCP-2292 is a mountain gorilla with the ability to reanimate dead animals and spread a fatal illness by touch. The ape is biologically alive despite its lack of a heart, which has been replaced by a tuberous root-like structure that radiates an amber glow, classified SCP-2292-1. Organisms reanimated by the gorilla are classified as SCP-2292-2. They are not returned to biological life and will not cease animation unless rendered completely immobile, often through total destruction. 2292's behavior is within the expected range for a male of its species, save for certain deviations presently attributed to chronic isolation.

SCP-2293 - An Inside Joke

SCP-2293 is a phenomenon where media that contains any form of dialogue or speech may be subject to a specific alteration. 2293 causes all affected media to include a line referencing Stephen King’s 1999 car accident (“Did you know that world-renowned writer Stephen King was once hit by a car? Just something to consider.”) The line occurs once at a random point within the media, although a preference is shown for moments that ruin the current mood. Media by King himself or directly based on his output is unaffected. The introduction of the line, along with descriptions of characters turning to face an unseen audience when applicable, causes the work to increase in size.

SCP-2294 - The Problems At Hand

SCP-2294 is a severed right hand which partially extends beyond the wrist, covered in scar tissue and badly damaged in some areas. The tips of the hand’s digits are replaced with heads that strongly resemble former US President Richard Nixon. All five heads appear to be sentient, and seem to be capable of intelligence and thinking on the level of most humans. Four of them believe they are still President, and often engage in debates over what decisions should be made for the country, usually regarding current domestic and foreign events. Each head possesses its own personality, along with varying beliefs and outlooks, which is primarily conveyed through their political debates.

SCP-2295 - The Bear with a Heart of Patchwork

SCP-2295, a particularly heartwarming anomaly, is a patchwork stuffed bear filled with synthetic fiber and cotton, which bears a small, anatomically correct pin of a heart on the left side of its thorax and a bow wrapped around its neck. 2295 enters an active state when in proximity to a human sustaining major trauma to a vital organ. The bear will anomalously produce scissors, white thread, and sewing needles from its mouth and use any fabric and stuffing in close proximity to fashion an instance of SCP-2295-1, a patchwork imitation of the injured organ. When completed, the imitation vanishes from sight and the subject falls into a state of unconsciousness. 2295-1 replaces the damaged organ via anomalous means, successfully carrying out their respective functions despite the numerous expected biological, chemical, and medical incompatibilities.
  • Ambiguously Related: It might share a common origin with SCP-1048, its Evil Counterpart.
  • Badass Adorable: A teddy bear that can perform delicate and successful organ transplants.
  • Beary Friendly: This teddy bear wants nothing more than to fix you up.
  • Fingerless Hands: It has no fingers, yet is able to sew, crochet, stitch, and cut with scissors.
  • Friend to All Children: When in proximity to two or more injured subjects, it will always start working on the youngest subject first, although it has no aversions to treating adults. The card it was found with indicates that it was made for a child by his grandmother.
  • Good Counterpart: To SCP-1048, another living teddy bear with the power of creation. SCP-2295 sews functioning cloth organs for injured humans, while SCP-1048 spawns homicidal copies of itself that are deadly to humans. In one of the test logs, it hugs a subject's lower leg, something SCP-1048 was noted to do frequently.
  • Hammerspace: It can pull certain objects out of nowhere, including scissors, thread, sewing needles, a crocheting hook, and a king-size chocolate bar, but it requires pre-existing cloth to make organ and skin replacements.
  • Healing Factor: If it doesn't have cloth to work with to cure a patient, it will use its own fabric and stuffing, the latter of which it can slowly regenerate.
  • Heroic BSoD: As noted below, the only thing SCP-2295 can't heal is damaged brain tissue. In one experiment, it was exposed to an 18-year old subject with cerebral hemorrhaging. 2295 proceeded to grab onto any material around it for about a minute in a distressed state, after which it produced a chocolate bar, gave it to the subject and held onto their right leg while crying.
  • Living Toys: A teddy bear that becomes sentient and autonomous in the presence of an injured person in order to cure them.
  • Meaningful Name: The card with which it was found indicates that its name is Kairos, a Greek word (καιρός) which means "[a] time when conditions are right for the accomplishment of a crucial action; the opportune and decisive moment" (per Wiktionary). SCP-2295 remains inanimate until it's absolutely needed—that is, when someone close by has a damaged organ.
  • Sealed Good in a Can: Currently kept in a standard containment locker.
  • Super Doc: It can use cloth to create perfectly functional replicas of almost any organ and replacements for damaged skin. The only thing it can't fix is damaged brain tissue.
  • Token Good Teammate: One of the rare SCPs that is both completely benevolent and has no harmful side effects when used.
  • The Voiceless: It does not talk, much like SCP-1048.

SCP-2296 - Emperor Penguin Tube Mommas

SCP-2296 is a phenomenon observed in the Antarctic breeding grounds of the emperor penguin, active during the June–July period in which males incubate eggs. When a group of penguins huddles for warmth for at least 12 minutes, pink, dimpled tubes made from polyethylene and collagen emerge from the ground over a period of 20 seconds, containing a gelatinous mixture of protein, fat, and water replenished from an unknown source. Males take turns feeding from this mixture and warming themselves on heated streams of air produced from nozzles on the tubes. When the huddle separates, the tubes retract into the ground, secreting dense ice from the hollow interior to fill any channels left by their movement. The source of the tubes themselves is unknown, as attempts to dig them up cause them to instantly retract into the ground to an unknown depth.

SCP-2297 - The Killer Thermostat

SCP-2297 appears to be a BOSCH RTH6450D1009 5-1-1- Day Programmable Thermostat. The inside of the casing holds a fleshy interior composed of various organs whose functions remain mostly unknown, as well as a series of valves and flaps responsible for the intake and output of oxygen. Upon being placed on a flat surface, it will activate and display one of several messages pertaining to anomalous conditions that will be exhibited within the room. Determined by the displayed message, the environment and temperature of the room 2297 occupies will be altered drastically, the effects steadily increasing in intensity. After 2297 has carried out a full, uninterrupted four minutes of its chosen effect, it functions as a normal thermostat until removed and reactivated. Those located within the same room are not concerned with the effects of change in temperature and environment, and do not believe themselves to be in any danger.

SCP-2298 - Life in a Plastic Box

SCP-2298 is a city block occupying the confines of a small shed in Italy. The block in question consists of two roads which intersect at the center of the block, and 14 buildings of varying sizes and purposes. 2298 appears to be "boxed in", as the edges of the block lead to solid plastic walls painted to look like a skyline. SCP-2298-1 are 37 sentient polyester resin mannequins which inhabit 2298. They do not appear animate while humans or any recording devices are inside 2298, but will change location at unknown intervals when unobserved. The mannequins display only a vague awareness of human intervention within the city block.

SCP-2299 - Cephalensis-9

SCP-2299 is an unknown phenomenon which occurs seemingly at random, targeting groups of people between 4 and 600,000 individuals. Over the course of 30-36 hours, 2299 significantly alters the host's mental faculties. Affected individuals typically suffer severe mental degradation and physical damage consistent with traumatic encephalopathy. The most prominent signs involve affected individuals holding fluid conversation despite suffering from severe aphasia. Prior to apparition, affected individuals have described a 30-40 second period of sensory overload, during which they are said to feel momentarily panic-stricken, while having a very strong taste of blood or metal. Following this, 2299's brain-altering effects begin to take place, accompanied by a strong odor of ammonia or formaldehyde.

    2300- 2349 

SCP-2300 - Periodic Golems

SCP-2300 is a collection of 98 miniature golems, each one composed solely of an element of the periodic table. The golems are shown to be both animate and sapient, have varying degrees of intelligence, and often use one another to create works of art.
  • Exactly What It Says on the Tin: The periodic table of elements personified as Living Statues.
  • Fantastic Caste System: The noble gases lead their periods (ex. SCP-2300-10 'neon' leads -3 'lithium' through -9 'fluorine', -18 'argon' leads -11 'potassium' to -17 'chlorine', etc.) however in the end they all turn to SCP-2300-1, the one made of hydrogen, for guidance.
  • Pun: The most intelligent golems are the ones that are the least dense.
  • Silicon-Based Life: With each golem made of their respective elements, this includes SCP-2300-14 as it is made purely of silicon.

SCP-2301 - Slayer's Song

SCP-2301 is a hostile, shapeshifting entity that typically takes the form of villainous creatures from European and Japanese mythology.
  • Breath Weapon: When SCP-2301 takes the form of a European dragon, it can breath out fire that has a temperature greater than 1000° C.
  • Super-Strength: When SCP-2301 takes the form of a Japanese oni, it is "incredibly strong", and can crush a man's chest by striking it with a kanabo (Japanese club).

SCP-2306 - Revenant AI

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

SCP-2315 - Mother Always Knows

SCP-2315 is an iPhone that spontaneously calls any male under the age of 30 in its presence and pretends to be their mother in order to manipulate them into doing dangerous things until they either die or hang up. The phone itself is SCP-2315 and the person on the other end of the line is designated SCP-2315-1.


  • Abusive Parents: While it isn't actually a parent as far as we know, it pretends to be the listener's mother and then insults and berates them before emotionally manipulating and browbeating them into doing things that will kill them. It also picks up on Agent Washington having seemingly had an abusive mother and acts accordingly during its call with him.
  • For the Evulz: Its actual motives are unknown, but Agent Washington speculates that either it's trying to get the Foundation to summon something (explaining why it made one of its victims draw a pentagram) or it just likes tormenting people.
  • Karma Houdini: The Foundation can't ever locate SCP-2315-1, so the best they can do is try and stop it from hurting anyone by not bringing SCP-2315 into contact with anyone else.
  • Kick the Dog: SCP-2315-1 goes out of its way to insult and belittle the listener while pretending to be their mother and at the end gives D-135's mother a massive brain tumour for no reason and is implied to be planning to do the same to Agent Washington's mother.
  • My Beloved Smother: Acts like one towards its victims.

SCP-2316 - Field Trip

Warning: This article contains a cognitohazard. No matter what, remember: you do not recognize the bodies in the water.

SCP-2316 is a lake shrouded in mist that appears to be filled with floating corpses. Those who look at the corpses will perceive them as people from their past, and will enter the lake to retrieve them, causing them to turn into yet another corpse in the lake.

The source of the cognitohazard is strongly implied to be an independent entity formed from the spirits of the corpses, and has since thrown their lot in with Syncope Symphony due to a number of common goals and origins. Tropes exclusive to their characterization can be found in Syncope's folder at Characters.SCP Foundation Groups.


  • Ambiguous Situation: One-sided dialogue transcripts and other context clues from related SCPs heavily imply SCP-2316's cognitohazard and the mysterious voice that appears in the article's corruption as a result of it is telling the truth (in that the Foundation is at least partially responsible for its creation), but no real confirmation is ever offered.
  • Arc Words: "You do not recognize the bodies in the water." Because you don't. No matter what, you don't.
  • Brown Note: SCP-2316 is a cognitohazard, meaning that it affects anyone who sees it, those who see it becoming convinced that they know the bodies from their personal lives. Repeat after me: I do not recognize the bodies in the water.
  • Class Trip: It's in the title. It's heavily implied that the "original" bodies in the water are Birchwood High's 1975 seniors, who went on a class trip to the lake and drowned there, possibly under the influence of the same thing that was The Man Behind the Man to Syncope Symphonies.
  • The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You: Hidden text in the article reveals edited-in footnotes and a monologue reminiscence about the Birchwood High School's Senior Class of '75, implying that the SCP has somehow infiltrated the Foundation's database and is trying to manipulate the reader into believing they recognize the bodies in the water.
  • Haunted Technology: SCP-2316 unlocks a redacted interview in the article for the reader, and repeatedly edits in footnotes and eventually an entire Villainous Monologue as a disembodied voice convincing them to join it.
  • Luring in Prey: It fools victims into trying to retrieve the corpses from the lake; they always drown in the process. This is why it is imperative that you do not recognize the bodies in the water.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: If you believe the mysterious voice, the SCP itself, and the remnants of Syncope Symphony, the place has more in common with the Foundation than with the Class of '76 and Syncope. To what extent is never explicitly stated, only that there is unjust blood on their hands. Well, more so than usual.
  • Villainous Breakdown: The entity controlling SCP-2316 becomes increasingly irritated as the reader resists their advances, eventually taking the form of a passive-aggressive disembodied voice that tries to force its effects onto the reader and eventually succeeding.
  • You Cannot Grasp the True Form: It's theorized that the corpses that make up SCP-2316 are not real, but rather a form that the entity had taken to lure people in.

Remember: You do not recognize the bodies in the water.

SCP-2317 - A Door to Another World

See Characters.SCP Foundation SC Ps.

SCP-2331 - SCRAVECROW

SCP-2331 is a sapient scarecrow with a jack o' lantern for a head. 2331, who calls himself "Jack", has the mindset of a normal person and is primarily active in October, where he uses reality-bending abilities to throw highly popular raves.
  • Pumpkin Person: SCP-2331 is an animated scarecrow with a pumpkin head that has a fluorescent blue glow inside it. He creates raves and acts as a DJ at them.
  • Stingy Jack: The last interview log implies that SCP-2331 is the spirit of Halloween, saddened over the commercialization of the holiday, trying something new to relive the joy the holiday once brought him.
  • Stomach of Holding: Subverted. One of his party tricks is vomiting glow sticks to pass out through the crowd, however it's uncertain whether they manifest in his mouth or stomach.

SCP-2332 - Thought Messenger

SCP-2332 is a butterfly composed of ultraviolet light that is capable of vocalization, intangibility, and changing itself into a different species.
  • Alternate Universe: SCP-2332 is a butterfly made of ultraviolet light that was originally created and sent out by another universe's version of the Foundation. It ended up in this universe by accident.
  • Intangible Man: Because SCP-2332 is made of light, it can pass through solid objects as long as they're made of a substance permeable to light (i.e. not opaque) such as glass and Plexiglas.
  • Weakened by the Light: SCP-2332 is rendered catatonic when exposed to strong light at wavelengths between 360 and 480 nanometers (i.e. blue light), such as from a blue laser pointer.

SCP-2333 - One Week To Live

SCP-2333 is a man-made prion that is known to heal brain disorders, but eventually results in the infected individual being rendered comatose. The only person to have survived 2333's effects is its creator: a doctor who was hoping to use it as a cure for Alzheimer's disease.
  • Accidental Discovery: Dr. Phil improperly prepared a prototype batch of SCP-2333 that made the lab rats it was tested on immortal. He immediately regretted this discovery and possibly sabotaged the project.
  • Healing Factor: In the first stage of infection, the infectee rapidly recovers from any chronic diseases.
  • Immortality Inducer: What SCP-2333 was ultimately meant to do. The group responsible switched focus from a cure to Alzheimer's to making this when Dr. Phil made his accidental discovery.
  • The Insomniac: Anyone infected is unable to sleep.
  • The Stoic: The first sign of infection is that the person is extremely calm.
  • Who Wants to Live Forever?: Dr. Phil, one of the researchers responsible for SCP-2333, believes that attaining immortality is morally wrong and may have sabotaged the project so that the prion eventually makes its subjects comatose.

SCP-2337 - "Dr. Spanko"

See Characters.SCP Foundation SC Ps.

SCP-2343 - How I Got To Memphis

SCP-2343 is Ptah, the Egyptian god of creation. He had once gotten drunk and started a fight with both a civilian and his wife Sekhmet, the Egyptian goddess of war, whereupon the Foundation discovered him. He is an immensely strong reality-warper, so powerful that the Foundation can barely contain him.
  • Domestic Abuse: He sports bruises on his face that he claims were from a friend but are clearly from his wife.
  • Hammerspace: Is able to produce objects like a cigarette and a guitar out of nowhere.
  • Person of Mass Destruction: Sekhmet is powerful enough to leave lasting bruises on Ptah and force the Foundation to stop attempting to capture her. Should she be unleashed, the entire world could be ravaged to the point that Ptah would have to rebuild everything again.
  • Physical God: He and his wife are Ptah and Sekhmet of Egyptian mythology in the form of Caucasian people.
  • Stealth Pun: His name, Peter, is a subtle allusion to his real identity as Ptah. Same with his wife's name, Sacha, an allusion to her identity as Sekhhet, as another name for her is Sachmis.

SCP-2347 - Maxwell's Phoenix

SCP-2347 is a man who involuntarily combusts and regenerates over 24 hours.

    2350- 2399 

SCP-2350 - From the Mind of Malinalxochitl

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

SCP-2353 - The Mannequin That Will No Longer Put Up With This Shit, Honestly

SCP-2353, who was previously identified by the name Stacy, is a sapient mannequin who behaves like a vain fashionista, and as such, holds high standards for personal style. She is also known for having violent reactions when presented with people who wear "inappropriate" clothing.
  • Berserk Button: She doesn't react well to several items of clothing, including Crocs, white clothing (including lab coats) between the first Monday of September and the first day of spring, flip-flops or sandals worn with socks, and jorts.
  • Double Entendre: While removing a man's pants, she says "No one wants to see squished sausage!"
  • Everyone Has Standards: When she learned that one of the people she's criticizing is legally blind and as such can't tell she's being unfashionable, the mannequin apologized and offered to buy her better shoes using its own money.
  • The Fashionista: She's a very fashionable mannequin.
  • Rhetorical Question Blunder: She asks a random woman wearing zebra print sandals if she's blind. This is, indeed, the case.
  • With Due Respect:
    [trying to remove the pants from a shopper] With all due respect what is wrong with you?! Wear some proper sizes!

SCP-2355 - 'They Grow up so Fast'

SCP-2355 is a crib that ages any baby under 12 months placed in it into an 18-year old version of itself.
  • Fountain of Youth: It's linked to someone named Uncle Jack. At first, he was a wizened old man, but he's becoming steadily younger the more the SCP is used. As of the last incident the Foundation knows, he did not complete the same process with the last baby, since it was not aged beyond single digits. Whoever he is and however he's doing it, he's pissed at the Foundation for confiscating the cribs.
  • Rapid Aging: Any baby of under 12 months of age that is placed in one of the cribs and left unobserved between sleeping and waking will grow up to an 18-year-old version of themselves.
  • Shared Dream: Somebody named Uncle Jack appears in the memories of all the aged babies.

SCP-2356 - Skylar's Wand

SCP-2356 is a red wand that can transform objects into other objects.
  • Magic Wand: It's in the title. It allows objects to be transformed into other objects (usually toys for young children), and they can be returned to normal by the wielder.
  • Dark and Troubled Past: It was apparently created by a father for his son Skylar, who was dying of leukemia. The boy didn't survive.

SCP-2362 - Not a Planet

SCP-2362 is Pluto, the former 9th planet of the Solar System. It's been reclassified as an SCP because it's not actually a planet, a dwarf planet, or even an asteroid. It's actually a giant egg, containing a gigantic space jellyfish that has since hatched.

SCP-2364 - Shaped Like Itself

  • Brown Note: Anyone who sees it will be unable to compare it to anything else.
  • Shaped Like Itself: Only its shape is indescribable; its color (magenta) and dimensions can still be measured.

SCP-2367 - Splatzshtaffel

SCP-2367 is a gigantic, bell-shaped device that was created to transport soldiers and military equipment belonging to Nazi Germany during WWII. Unfortunately for them, (though fortunately for the Allies) while the device does indeed teleport, it puts it's targets hundreds of meters above ground, usually resulting in death.
  • Gone Horribly Wrong: It's purpose was to transport Nazi troops from one place to another. While they did succeed in doing that, it puts it's transported targets too far up, resulting in all the troops dying as a result.
  • Random Transportation: It's fatal flaw. It isn't that it teleports them away from their destination, it just teleports them above it's destination.
  • Fish out of Temporal Water: When the Nazis were teleported, a good chunk of them were flung into the future, but all of them died before they could even take in the scenery. It's also said an armies worth of Nazis will appear around 2031 and will cause mass damage to Berlin. Not because the Nazis have returned, but because the weight of the army would kill anyone caught underneath them.

SCP-2385 - Somewhere In The Between

SCP-2385 is a network of bioluminescent tunnels composed of human tissue. The tunnels are inhabited by worm-like creatures that are born within the tunnel walls.
  • Beast with a Human Face: The SCP-2385-1 & -2 instances are worm-like creatures with humanoid heads.
  • Creepy Cave: SCP-2385 is this, where it has a fleshy wall where the instances known as SCP-2385-1 are born from.
  • Gentle Giant: The SCP-2385-2 instances are docile compared to their smaller SCP-2385-1 instances. Averted for the larger SCP-2385-1 instances, who remain violent and aggressive.
  • Mobile Maze: The cave system's walls will occasionally open passageways, which can close again after some time. SCP-2385-2 instances, while they cannot create new passageways, are able to open ones that do exist by nudging at the walls.
  • Monstrous Cannibalism: SCP-2385-1 instances will eat others of their own, as well as deceased instances of SCP-2385-2.

SCP-2386 - Pink Ladies

SCP-2386 is a species of humanoid entities that resemble dolls. These entities also happen to share similarities with silkworms and botflies.
  • Chest Burster: Instances of SCP-2386-1 will burst from the growth where SCP-2386 initially planted its eggs in any male.
  • Does Not Like Men: In autumn/winter, instances of SCP-2386 act hostile towards any male of any species.
  • Mix-and-Match Critters: SCP-2386 instances are noted to have similarities to both human botflies and silkworms.

SCP-2396 - Ms. Sweetie

See Characters.SCP Foundation Misters.

SCP-2399 - A Malfunctioning Destroyer

SCP-2399 is a colossal spacecraft in that carries antimatter-based weaponry. The craft's weaponry has been revealed to be the source of Jupiter's Great Red Spot, where the craft is currently residing as it rebuilds itself. Once reconstruction is complete, the craft may or may not destroy the Earth.
  • Antimatter: Its weaponry is based upon antimatter, which caused a colossal hurricane on Jupiter.
  • Apocalypse How: SCP-2399 is an Ominous Floating Spaceship that was headed to Earth but got pancaked by Jupiter and is currently undergoing self-repair. It's the size of North America, by the way, so if Jupiter hadn't stopped it or it fully repairs and reaches Earth, nothing good could come from its arrival.
  • Been There, Shaped History: You know The Great Red Spot? 2399 caused it.
  • Depending on the Artist: Since there is no in-depth description, SCP-2399's physical appearance has multiple fan art depictions.
  • Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: One explanation for its presence is that it came to Earth first to deal with a SCP-001 proposal. Which is a massive Eldritch Abomination that may or may not be the Broken God that the Church of the Broken God worships. While it was successful in defeating the god with a single laser beam, it was damaged and fled to Jupiter for repairs.
  • Deflector Shields: Dons a full-body electromagnetic forcefield that makes it utterly indestructible by any means.
  • Drone Deployer: Can dispense little octoid drones to repair it.
  • Good All Along: In one SCP-001 proposal, it saved the Earth from a Mechanical Abomination that may or may not have been the Broken God. It was damaged in the process, however, and fled to Jupiter to repair itself.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: One of its explanations. It shot down the Broken God SCP-001 proposal, an Eldritch Abomination that ravaged northern Mexico, and was critically damaged to the point it fled to Jupiter to repair itself. In other words, it actually only existed for our own good.
  • Lost Superweapon: It's a continent-sized Ominous Floating Spaceship that crashed into Jupiter, and activated its defenses of an electromagnetic forcefield to shield itself from the giant's harsh conditions, an army of repair drones to patch up its injuries and retrieve its scattered remains, and anti-matter-based weaponry that caused the Great Red Spot. Also, it may have killed a literal god.
  • Outside-Context Problem: 2399's creator, most definitely an alien/species of alien. It's been sending messages to 2399 to repair itself for the past years.

    2400- 2449 

SCP-2400 - Temporal Dilation Facility

SCP-2400 is an alternate dimension located through a steel door. Time is known to flow much slower than the baseline reality, and the dimension itself is formed entirely from a white indestructible material.
  • Fantastic Time Management: Site-64T was constructed inside SCP-2400-A specifically for this goal.
  • Portal Door: SCP-2400 is a steel door set in a fragment of a concrete wall. When opened, it leads to an apparently infinite plane of existence with ground similar to concrete and a star similar to the Sun overhead.
  • Power Nullifier: SCP-2400's classified Object Class is Thaumiel. One of the reasons for this is because the anomalous temporal situation within SCP-2400 neutralizes SCP-2700's energy flow problems. (see below for SCP-2700) The other reason is that it is a very stable and effective Time Dilation Field.
  • Year Inside, Hour Outside: While the door to SCP-2400 is closed, time passes inside SCP-2400 at a rate of 140 times the normal rate.

SCP-2401 - Mary Had A Little Lamb

SCP-2401 is a species of honeybee that forms a symbiotic partnership with a human female. The woman will have their skin converted into a beehive, which the bees can control. The bees can also infest males, but they die rapidly after the process.
  • Bizarre Alien Reproduction: SCP-2401 are unusual honeybees that can infest and control a human body, but males all die quickly and most of the females commit suicide. When the host body is female it can have sex with a human male and become impregnated. The babies will be adapted to be better hosts.
  • Body Horror: SCP-2401 are honeybees that can enter a human body and build honeycomb-like structures inside it, turning the body into a large hive.

SCP-2406 - The Colossus

SCP-2406 is a massive 6-pilot automaton that dates back to 1200 B.C. It was one of many of the same model, designed by the Church of the Broken God to combat the Daevite empire. Its remains have since been discovered to be buried in the sands of the Aralkum Desert, where the Foundation has built a provisional site around it.
  • Anachronism Stew: Par for the course for the Church of the Broken God/Followers of Mekhane. Goat intestines are used to deliver air to the pilots, but it's got an onboard nuclear reactor and a reality-altering alien Arm Cannon.
  • Been There, Shaped History: According to documents accompanying it, Grand Karcist Ion and his followers are responsible for the Bronze Age collapse. It also mentions that "the city of a thousand pillars is lost", implied to be Iram of the Pillars, a city mentioned in the Qur'an, said to have been destroyed by God.
  • Historical In-Joke: The second document mentions that they are heading for the island of Kythera. Kythera is only 38 kilometres from Antikythera, where one of the world's oldest computers was found in a shipwreck.
  • Humongous Mecha: 93 meters in height and weighing approximately 210 tons. Made around 1200 BCE, and currently in a very damaged state.
  • Rousing Speech: Matriarch Eupraxia, Legates-Faithful, Servant of MEKHANE delivers a pretty effective one.
    "We have seen villages ravaged by the Red Death. We have seen the dead, the dying, and the deathless. We cast the accursed to holy flame. We enter his desolate domain. And in our left hand, we carry our ANSWER. We cannot undo what has been done - but we can delay the Sarkic Dawn."

SCP-2408 - Orok's Fall

SCP-2408 is the designation given to several anomalies associated with "The Black Hunter's Lodge", a former Sarkic cult-turned-criminal syndicate active in Russia.
  • Token Evil Teammate: Sarkisism is usually more motivated by Blue-and-Orange Morality then actual malevolence, but the loge is nothing more then a gang of brutal criminals using their teachings to advance their status in the criminal underworld.

SCP-2416 - The Day the Clown Died

SCP-2416 is Joseph Grunderson-Pike, a man who is prone to repeatedly dying in ways that are both humorous and devoid of logic. He is also immortal, as a clone of him will regenerate once he dies.
  • Black Comedy: The many deaths this guy has, combined with the stupidest reasons, make this article hilarious.
  • The Fool: Given his attitude, it's clear he had this mindset, but not the luck that's supposed to come with it.
  • Noodle Incident: One of his deaths was redacted by the Foundation for unknown reasons. All that the accompanying comment clarifies is that "the badgers suffered only minor injuries."
  • Resurrective Immortality: Comes back to life in another location after dying. The Foundation doesn't know how yet, but they've ruled out reincarnation.
  • Rule of Three: In three of his deaths, his last reported words were "gimme a kiss". Those deaths involved (separately) a table saw, a rattlesnake, and Chilean anarchists.
  • Running Gag: "Last words were reportedly 'gimme a kiss'."
  • Too Dumb to Live: His main defining trait is that he always finds the stupidest ways to die, then resurrects and comes back for more. Recorded deaths include going into a puma habitat in a zoo covered in bacon, sleeping in the middle of a freeway, and climbing into an incinerator after mistaking it for a bathroom. Unsurprisingly, the Foundation resorted to just putting him in a coma so that he can't get himself killed again.

SCP-2419 - The Laughing Men

SCP-2419 is a waste processing facility with incinerators that are stuffed with instances of SCP-2419-A, a legion of endlessly-regenerating reanimated corpses that violently murder all Foundation personnel they find.
  • Ax-Crazy: The SCP-2419-A instances murder every sapient being they get their hands on.
  • Bad with the Bone: One SCP-2419-A instance deliberately inflicts an open arm fracture on himself so he can use the exposed bone to break out of captivity and violently stab the man interviewing him to death.
  • Came Back Wrong: SCP-2419-A instances are the regenerated corpses of D-Class who had all of their positive memories removed, turning them into a creature somewhere between a zombie and a Humanoid Abomination that runs on The Power of Hate.
  • Create Your Own Villain: The SCP Foundation harvests all the happy memories from the D-Class personnel killed in human testing and uses them to make more potent amnestics. Unfortunately, with nothing to keep them peaceful in death but a lifetime’s worth of uninterrupted pain and madness, the D-Class end up reanimating as an army of undead, Ax-Crazy, Humanoid Abominations eager to share their suffering with the living, becoming yet another problem that the Foundation has to contain.
  • The Dog Bites Back: SCP-2419-A are the reanimated corpses of D-Class who died in testing and had their happy memories boiled away to make stronger amnestics. With a history like that, it's no wonder they try to kill all the Foundation personnel they see.
  • From a Single Cell: Even when the incinerators have completely reduced every speck of an instance to ash, they’ll just start reconstituting themselves again as soon as the heat within starts to drop. Thus, containment measures at SCP-2419 mostly boil down to keeping the furnaces going at the highest temperature at all times.
  • Healing Factor: The heat of the incinerators are the only things keeping them from completely regenerating their flesh. Even the small amount of flesh they do manage to regenerate is threatening to clog up the incinerators and starve them of oxygen to fuel their flames.
  • Human Resources: The brains of recently deceased humans leave behind a residue (implied to be Y-909, the same compound released by SCP-3000 whenever it consumes a human), which can be distilled to only contain happy memories and used to create powerful amnestics. The Foundation uses the corpses of D-Class subjects to this end, which have somehow been reanimated inside the incinerators as omnicidal, indestructible zombies.
  • It Can Think: One instance escaped containment by tearing off it’s own arm and using the resulting fracture as a piercing weapon to break the bullet-proof glass.
  • Implacable Man: When they first started appearing, instances of SCP-2419-A shrugged off everything the cleanup teams threw at them. The only way they managed to incapacitate a few for study was by burying them in concrete.
  • Laughing Mad: All they ever do is laugh, it’s not clear if it’s because they’re too far gone to understand what's happening to them or if they do understand and are enjoying it.
  • Nigh-Invulnerable: SCP-2419-A instances are insanely durable thanks to their potent Healing Factor, resisting pretty much everything that the Foundation has brought to bear against them. Even complete incineration only works for as long as the incinerator in question can keep it up, as they’ll begin to regenerate immediately after the flames start to die. Out of all the methods they tried, burying the instances in cement was the only thing that managed to stop them for a meaningful amount of time.
  • Our Zombies Are Different: They’re indistinguishable from normal humans when fully regenerated, and they’re heavily implied to be both intelligent and extremely malevolent.
  • Out of the Inferno: All the instances of SCP-2419-A are currently trapped within the facility’s active incinerators.
  • The Power of Hate: Thanks to having every happy memory burned away by the Foundation to make amnestics, all that's left in them is bitterness, anger, hate and other negative emotions strong enough to bring them back to life for the sake of seeking retribution.
  • Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Thanks to the Foundation boiling away every moment of happiness they ever had, they’re all guided by an existence of unabated suffering and insanity. And they’re very eager to take it out on anyone they see.
  • Super-Strength: Capable of tearing apart an adult man with their bare hands, an ability they’re willing to combine with their Healing Factor to create some very grisly improvised weapons.
  • Take That!: The article is an ode against the Dehumanization of Asshole Victims and argues that everyone, no matter how awful, is entitled to basic respect as a human being. With the Foundation’s treatment of D-Class as inhuman monsters having caused them to become literally inhuman.
    Dr. Hammond: We've done it. In death, D-263175 is finally the monster people imagined. I've burned away every last trace of his humanity. Now, I'm going to send his corpse to Unit C and burn away the rest. I pray to God that what's left will burn.

SCP-2422 - A Friendly Family

SCP-2422 is a group of four humanoids that claim to be related to one another, forming a sort of family. The humanoids are also telepathic, each of them able to scan a certain aspect of a person's mind.
  • Cure Your Gays: 2422-A kisses one worker unexpectedly. This hints at the fact that he's actually a homosexual.
  • Dark and Troubled Past: Their method of creation. A bizarre individual attempted to brainwash them as part of some sick joke on the Foundation.
  • Not Brainwashed: -C has some trouble keeping to the whole "joy" thing. All but one of them, ultimately. -A is just a little affected. -D is in shock, and running on their "creators's" programming, acting as the "police officer" and threatening the others to keep them in line when they stray.
  • Red Herring: Peeling the onion will reveal more than one assumption was wrong.
  • Telepathy: Each member of SCP-2422 can use telepathy to read a person's mind and find out specific information when the person makes eye contact with them.
    • SCP-2422-A can determine how intelligent the person is on a scale of 0-35, with 22 being the average. This corresponds to the standard IQ scale.
    • SCP-2422-B can learn what the person has been doing for the last 22 hours, including where they've been.
    • SCP-2422-C will share the person's emotional state. If the contact continues, it will experience the person's emotional states (up to the last 22 hours) in reverse chronological order.
    • After having a long conversation with a person on a specific subject, SCP-2422-D will know how the person really feels about the subject.

SCP-2424 - Hostile Walrus Cyborg [striked out] research ongoing

SCP-2424 is a purple walrus with cybernetic enhancements, including a laser cannon in its mouth. It turns out to be a boss from an anomalous video game titled "Eskimo Moe".
  • Doomed Hometown: In the anomalous Video Game Eskimo Moe, the title character's home village was burned down by Emperor Penguin when he kidnapped Moe's girlfriend Anaaya.
  • Freeze Ray: In the anomalous Video Game Eskimo Moe, the enemies known as Goonters (intelligent penguins) have pistol-like devices that can fire a freezing ray.
  • Make Me Wanna Shout: The Boss Battle opponent Bruiser is stated to have a "high-pitched sonic blast" that is capable of killing the character Moe the Eskimo.
  • Sorting Algorithm of Evil: SCP-2424 is a Video Game Boss Battle opponent who exists in Real Life. He says of himself: "I'm the first, the easiest, I'm supposed to be. I've been destroyed more times than I care to remember." He also refers to other opponents who are stronger.

SCP-2427 - A Thing Full of Stuff

SCP-2427 is a collection of abnormalities inside a parallel dimension.
  • And I Must Scream: SCP-2427-3 and SCP-2427-6 are horrific, with the former being a spider-like creature with a man’s face that judges all it encounters, and the latter being a tree growing out from a human’s waist buried underground.
  • Bigger on the Inside: a complete Inversion. SCP-2427-2 is a structure resembling an 1860s sanitarium, but the interior is a non-Euclidian spacial displacement, comprising only one floor and three rooms with a central foyer.
  • It Can Think: Inverted. Unlike SCP-2128, SCP-2427-7 lacks sentient intelligence.
  • Judge, Jury, and Executioner: SCP-2427-3 judges any human being it encounters. If deemed impure, SCP-2427-3 will devour the human before it. As for what happens when SCP-2427-3 deems someone pure is unknown.
  • Kill It with Fire: SCP-2427-7's primary method of killing anyone that makes an inaccurate statement while inside it is burned alive.
  • Knight Templar: Its cultist creators, the Brazen Heart, abandoned SCP-2427 for unknown reasons.
  • Rain of Something Unusual: SCP-2427-5 fires large balls of solid lead at super sonic speed at anyone who stares at it for more than 3 seconds.

SCP-2428 - Mr. Mad

See Characters.SCP Foundation Misters.
L

SCP-2430 - Immortal Hitler Clone

Yes, you read that title correctly; The Foundation has a clone of Der Fuhrer himself as an SCP. Specifically, SCP-2430 is an exact look-alike of Hitler, but his DNA is actually composed of goat and boar than human. He's also functionally immortal, and cannot die by any means.
  • Bizarre Human Biology: His DNA is comprised of boar and goat, but looks completely human. He also has inactive internal organs, and doesn't need to drink, eat, sleep, or even breath. This is due to the fact that he was created using the flesh of the Sæhrímnir, a species of goat-boar that was said to be eaten endlessly by the Gods in Norse Mythology.
  • Came Back Wrong: He was created by using Sæhrímnir flesh on Hitler's remains, for the purpose of torturing him and for propoganda purposes for the Soviets. Un/Fortunately, he is more of a meat puppet that looks like Hitler than the Fuhrer himself, exhibiting zero sapient qualities and being unable to speak.
  • Complete Immortality: He is impossible to kill, as any damage sustained to him will be healed over a specific amount of time, depending on what part of him is damaged. However, his bones will only heal at a normal rate regardless of damage.
  • The Chew Toy: He was created solely to be this. To elaborate, after Joseph Stalin found out Hitler already killed himself, he contacted the Sarkic Cult to help him resurrect Hitler to make him suffer on his terms. They succeded, while also increasing his pain sensitivity.
  • Empty Shell: He's noted to be functionally brain-dead, and doesn't seem to exhibit any sapient qualities. However, given he has the brain of a mix between a boar and a goat, he probably doesn't have the mind of a human.
  • Evil Is Petty: Apparently after obtaining the flesh of Sæhrímnir, which could be used to create an army of super soldiers with a potent Healing Factor and an inability to feel pain, Stalin rejected this proposal in favour of using it to resurrect Hitler just so he could torture him.
  • Misapplied Phlebotinum: In-universe, the Soviet documents imply that the flesh of Sæhrímnir was originally meant to be used to create super soldiers with a potent Healing Factor. Joseph Stalin rejected that proposal in favor of making an immortal punching bag out of Hitler's corpse.
  • The Speechless: It's noted he is incapable of speech. It's theorised by the Nazis who rescued him that it was due to the amount of torture done to him by the Soviets. However, it's equally possible it's due to his Sæhrímnir biology, as it's also noted that his brain is a combination of boar and goat rather than human.
  • You Cloned Hitler!: Subverted. It is Hitler, but he Came Back Wrong.

SCP-2441 - Almost Eight

SCP-2441 is a wall clock whose hands are seemingly frozen at 8:00 (in reality, they're still at 7:59, but are moving closer to 8:00, microscopically and at a snail's pace). Anyone who views the clock will become unable to group minutes into hours, and will eventually gain time-warping abilities.
  • Fantastic Time Management: Viewers become able to postpone unfavorable events, such as non-lethal electric shocks.
  • Exponential Plot Delay: Or rather, not the plot itself, but something the viewer doesn't want happening.
  • Destructive Romance: It was found in the household of a married couple with 2 children. The husband had gotten angry at his wife for asking him to be home at 8:00 pm (he thought it wrong for her to set a curfew), and subsequently hadn't returned home in three months.

    2450- 2499 

SCP-2451 - Love Through Time, Space and Species

SCP-2451 is a series of alternate universes that can be entered through a spatial anomaly. The anomaly itself was the result of an experimental process to send a soldier back in time to assassinate Adolf Hitler.
  • Alternate Universe: SCP-2451 is a doorway to a series of other universes, some of which are very different from the Foundation's universe. In one the "humans" are 8 foot tall bird-like creatures with beaks the size of a human's arm.
  • Happily Married: The interview reveals 2451 is actually married to 2451-14. She attacked him at first but he helped sort it out and they got along pretty well it seems, with them deciding they should just get married for convenience. 2451 cares for her greatly, explicitly says he'd rather she run away and leave him behind instead of undergoing whatever experiments he knows people like the Foundation would do to her. Given the containment procedures for her, it seems the Foundation wasn't as bad he thought.
  • Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act: SCP-2451 is created by an attempt by the American military to send one of the soldiers back in time to kill Hitler, only for seemingly nothing to happen. However, said soldier winds up becoming a walking temporal anomaly, through which other time travelers from other dimensions exit to kill their historical genocidal tyrants.
  • Interspecies Romance: 2451-14 is apparently only "superficially" human. 2451 very vocally doesn't care.

SCP-2460 - Dark Satellite

SCP-2460 is a gravitational anomaly in elliptical orbit around the Earth. It emits a strange

  • Apocalypse How: By way of it's ability to annihilate quantum matter should it collide with the Earth it will slowly phase the planet out of existence due to an oscillating orbit should it fall.
  • The Assimilator: SCP-2460 had before arriving above Earth managed to absorb several items into its mass: including an Alien vessel, a comet nucleus, and an entire Planetesimal.
  • Canon Character All Along: The SCP-2460 anomaly is revealed to be a cluster of Dark Matter.
  • Nothing Is Scarier: In the words of the Doctors' given report after concluding its nature as Dark Matter:
    when you consider that fully 85% of the mass in the universe is dark matter, we should not ask why we are so unlucky to have a chunk of it orbiting around the Earth. We should ask why we are so lucky that we haven't hit any of this stuff yet.
  • Sink the Lifeboats: There are around ninety single-person Escape Pods found absorbed into SCP-2460, likely launched from the alien vessel in an attempt to try escaping the threat.
  • The Thing That Would Not Leave: Multiple attempts were made by The Foundation to try and lure away the chunk of SCP-2460, but due to its weird effects on gravity; it only resulted in every object sent to pull it away from the Earth to instead pull the item into itself.

SCP-2461 - Aftermath

SCP-2461 is a flying saucer manufactured by the Nazis that has since crashed landed. The saucer has been found to contain mechanical armor and weapons that emit beams of intense x-rays.
  • It Has Been an Honor: Two of the GOC (Global Occult Coalition) agents who stole the Nazi UFO apparently didn't like each other very much, but their last words indicated their true feelings.
    VAV-2: For what it's worth, Fritz, you weren't so bad for a stuck up German ass.
    VAV-1: I feel the same way, you headstrong Ami bitch.
  • Power Armor: SCP-2461-B are exoskeletal suits of powered armor made of steel alloy and tailored to fit the individual wearer. The suits provide increased strength and life support in space, and the armor makes the wearer Immune to Bullets.
  • Stupid Jetpack Hitler: SCP-2461 is a set of recovered Nazi artifacts. SCP-2461-A is a flying saucer with X-ray laser turrets, SCP-2461-B are exoskeleton Power Armors, SCP-2461-D are X-ray laser pistols and SCP-2461-E are X-ray laser rifles.

SCP-2463 - An Emperor's Debt

SCP-2463 is a bronze horse commissioned by Emperor Valerian of Rome in an attempt to wipe out "the Persian dogs". The horse is capable of rendering nearby land barren and transforming water into oil.
  • Exact Words: SCP-2463 was commissioned by the Roman emperor Valerian in the following words: "A force to wipe out the Persian dogs. To make barren their lands, and sickly their people. A force to destroy every square foot on which they have ever walked and to plague their kingdom with bloodshed for millennia." It's a group of horse statues that turn water into oil.
  • Salt the Earth: One of its intended effects is to make land barren.
  • Worthless Yellow Rocks: One of the older (third century) documents Marshall, Carter and Dark has about it describes the petroleum it produces as useless black pitch.

SCP-2470 - The Void Singularity

SCP-2470 is an abstract extradimensional entity that contains the ability to erase whatever it perceives or understands. The Foundation considers it to be the manifestation of a ZK-class reality failure, as it could very well understand the nature of the universe itself.
  • Apocalypse How: Is considered to be the initial manifestation of a universe- or possibly multiverse-ending ZK-class reality failure event due to its ability to erase anything it perceives and understands. If it began to understand entire concepts, or perhaps the whole universe...
  • Barrier Maiden: The Foundation believes its mere existence takes up the universe's ZK-class apocalypse 'slot' (ironically also making it an Apocalypse Maiden) and no other events of ZK magnitude can take place concurrently.
  • Clone by Conversion: The final collapsible on the page very heavily implies that 2470 is capable of turning living beings into further instances of itself via use of its Dream Stealer abilities, leading to victims becoming apathetic and indifferent and eventually taking uncommon curiosity in common objects. Whenever medical staff diagnose this particular affliction, they are put into an artificial coma, pumped full of enough Brain Bleach to down an elephant, then killed with neurotoxin and cremated. As if this thing wasn't dangerous enough.
  • Deity of Human Origin: Was Once a Man, as it would turn out, and wound up having a doomsday cult spring up around his transformed state...assuming his mentor wasn't part of this to begin with and they always planned to make their own destroyer god.
  • Dream Stealer: Again, the final collapsible shows cases of it appearing in recurring dreams had by various personnel that work in the containment area as a pulsating black mass, followed by victims ceasing to have dreams altogether.
  • Eldritch Abomination: An abstract being with a largely unknown and likely incomprehensible appearance that's capable of inflicting Cessation of Existence on -ANYTHING- it perceives and comes to understand. Even though he used to be human.
  • Enlightened Antagonist: His enlightenment during his time as a human was incomplete, as he wound up misinterpreting the 'nonexistence' bent of nirvana and began LITERALLY making things cease to exist.
  • God of Evil: Seemingly to the cult thought to have summoned it into this world, though whether it can really be considered a 'god' is debatable and it seems to be Obliviously Evil at worst.
  • Godzilla Threshold: As the Foundation believes its presence is capable of 'disabling' other ZK-class scenarios, it is hesitant to use a form of the "Weißschatten’s paradox" designed to be able to bypass its memetic defenses and neutralize it unless it becomes too difficult to contain, as this thing could easily go from Keter to Apollyon with the slightest mistake in containment.
  • Logic Bomb: A "Weißschatten’s paradox", prepared by the Foundation as a means of either killing the object by making it erase itself through a memetic agent, or by destroying its ability to perceive. It seems to have a Logic Bomb resistance, however, but the paradox is enough to keep it occupied and prevent it from destroying its containment area.
  • Omnicidal Maniac: Came damn close to turning into one while he was human; the Foundation is, unknowingly, attempting to avert this from happening.
  • One-Winged Angel: Was Once a Man who nearly erased himself from existence, becoming a far more monstrous Eldritch Abomination void in reality after 'death'.
  • Person of Mass Destruction: Even did it to himself but it didn't stick completely.
  • Power of the Void: It's title is the Void Singularity, is described as an 'unfillable unbeing' at one point and anything it perceives is erased from existence.
  • Was Once a Man: The tale Perfect Mind shows the SCP was once a human with latent Realty Warper abilities who was deluded into a 'corrupted' version of Buddhist nirvana through his mentor trying to shortcut him through, unwittingly activating his reality-bending abilities and damn near stepping into Omnicidal Maniac territory before he went and turned his abilities on himself. He survives as a disembodied consciousness manifested through a pure void in the world.
  • Your Mind Makes It Real: Inverted, as (assuming it really is sentient) anything that it perceives and understands is made un-real, or rather erased completely. Turns out this is because he Was Once a Man who went crazy after deciding that nothing actually exists, and inflicted his upon himself as well, becoming an Eldritch Abomination in the process.

SCP-2484 - Parasitic Mayonnaise Worms

SCP-2484 is a substance that resembles mayonnaise. The substance actually happens to be the eggs of an extraterrestrial species. When the eggs are ingested by a vertebrate, they hatch into worm-like creatures that will eat each other until only one remains.
  • Body Horror: If an amount of SCP-2484 exceeding 235 grams is removed from its container, it will attempt to enter the body of the nearest vertebrate animal, by force if necessary. If any vertebrate animal eats enough SCP-2484, the eggs in SCP-2484 will hatch and grow into worms that consume the victim's body.
  • Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: The eggs of an unknown alien species are in a substance resembling mayonnaise. If a vertebrate animal eats enough of it the eggs will hatch inside the victim's body and grow to up to 12 centimeters long. They will then try to eat each other until only one is left.
