Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid Neutralized

Special Containment Procedures: No active containment of SCP-XXXX is possible or necessary. The Foundation's Department of Epidemiology is to maintain global monitoring for any recurrence of involuntary diaphragmatic spasms (commonly known as "hiccups") in human populations. Any confirmed cases are to be reported immediately to O5 Command and affected individuals should be quarantined pending full neurological assessment.

Medical teams at all Foundation facilities are to document any potential hiccup-like symptoms in personnel and forward reports to Research Site-77's Neurological Assessment Division. Biannual global sampling studies are to be conducted to verify the continued suppression effect.

Description: SCP-XXXX refers to the global cessation of hiccups in humans following the termination of Humanoid Entity-5477 (codename: "The Count") by Global Occult Coalition forces on March 17, 2003. Prior to this date, involuntary diaphragmatic spasms were a universal human physiological response documented across all historical periods and geographical regions, affecting approximately 4.2 billion individuals daily.

Hiccups have been completely absent from human populations since the moment of Entity-5477's termination. This cessation occurred simultaneously worldwide with no reported exceptions. Medical literature now categorizes hiccups as an "extinct neurological phenomenon," with many newer medical professionals unfamiliar with the condition outside of historical documentation.

Analysis of blood samples preserved from pre-2003 human subjects indicates microscopic alterations to vagus nerve sensitivity not present in any humans born after the incident date. Foundation neurologists theorize that Entity-5477 maintained a subtle parasympathetic connection to humanity that manifested as periodic diaphragmatic disruptions.

Recovered documents from GOC Operation "WOODEN STAKE" reveal that Entity-5477 possessed traits consistent with vampiric mythology, including hemophagic tendencies, photosensitivity, and extended longevity. The entity had evaded detection for approximately 600 years by maintaining a diffuse psychic presence distributed across the human population rather than a concentrated physical form. This diffusion manifested partially as the neurological phenomenon commonly known as hiccups.

Addendum XXXX-1: Interview with Agent D██████, GOC Observer

Interviewer: Dr. Thomas Werner, Foundation Department of Extranormal Affairs

Interviewee: Agent D██████, GOC Embedded Observer

Dr. Werner: Can you describe what happened during Operation WOODEN STAKE?

Agent D██████: The Coalition had been tracking unusual blood-related anomalies for decades. Small-scale exsanguinations, reports of enhanced strength and longevity among certain individuals. The pattern pointed to a distributed consciousness using human bodies as temporary vessels.

Dr. Werner: And The Count was responsible for hiccups specifically?

Agent D██████: We didn't know that would happen. The hiccup cessation was completely unexpected. Our thaumatological specialists theorize that the diaphragmatic spasms were actually microfeeding events - tiny moments when the entity siphoned minimal life force from each human host. Not enough to cause harm individually, but collectively providing enough energy to sustain its distributed consciousness.

Dr. Werner: So humanity was essentially serving as a vast farm for this entity?

Agent D██████: That's the current theory. We've been monitoring for any replacement entities attempting to establish similar neurological footholds in the population. So far, nothing has emerged, but several previously common physiological phenomena are now under investigation.

Addendum XXXX-2: Related Phenomena

Following the cessation of hiccups, Foundation researchers have identified three other physiological responses that show statistically significant declines since 2003:

Isolated sleep myoclonus (hypnic jerks) - reduced by 37%

Phantom limb sensations in non-amputees - reduced by 22%

Unexplained goosebumps in absence of thermal stimuli - reduced by 15%

Research into these potential secondary effects of Entity-5477's termination is ongoing.

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: Foundation economic analysts are to continuously monitor the business activities, market performance, and public perception of Apple Inc. (Alpha-1) and SpaceX (Delta-7). These monitoring protocols are to pay particular attention to their respective CEOs, Tim Cook and Elon Musk.

MTF Zeta-9 ("Venture Capitalists") is to maintain cover identities within both corporations at executive and engineering levels. Should the Eschatological Manifestation Index (EMI) exceed 0.6, MTF personnel are authorized to implement Protocol MARKET-STABILIZER, which includes selective industrial sabotage, strategic press leaks, and fabricated product failures to maintain competitive equilibrium.

All geological monitoring stations worldwide are to be equipped with specialized seismographs capable of detecting the unique harmonic patterns associated with SCP-XXXX manifestations. Any detection of these patterns requires immediate notification of Site Command.

In the event that the EMI exceeds 0.8, Emergency Protocol HELLGATE-CONTINGENCY is to be initiated. This includes the evacuation of all personnel from facilities within 200km of active fault lines and the deployment of Thaumaturgic Suppression Arrays at the seven identified potential manifestation points.

Under no circumstances is Delta-7 to achieve market dominance over Alpha-1 in more than three technological sectors simultaneously. The O5 Council has authorized termination of key Delta-7 executives if necessary to prevent full manifestation.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a metaphysical phenomenon linking the competitive relationship between two specific technology corporations to the manifestation of extradimensional apertures in the Earth's crust. These apertures exhibit properties consistent with traditional eschatological descriptions of entrances to infernal realms across multiple religious traditions.

SCP-XXXX was first identified in 2011 following the death of Steve Jobs, founder and CEO of Alpha-1. In the subsequent corporate reorganization under Tim Cook, seismologists detected unusual harmonic patterns at several fault lines worldwide that coincided precisely with major product announcements from Delta-7. Analysis of these patterns revealed phonetic structures resembling Latin, Sumerian, and Proto-Semitic phrases associated with damnation and hellfire.

Extensive analysis has determined that SCP-XXXX manifestations intensify when Delta-7 achieves any of the following competitive advantages over Alpha-1:

Market capitalization exceeding Alpha-1 by more than 15%

Successful product launches in technological sectors previously dominated by Alpha-1

Public perception metrics favoring Delta-7's CEO (Elon Musk) over Alpha-1's CEO (Tim Cook)

Acquisition of companies previously allied with or targeted by Alpha-1

The Foundation has documented a direct correlation between the intensity of corporate competition and the severity of SCP-XXXX manifestations. Minor competitive victories by Delta-7 result in localized seismic anomalies, while significant market disruptions cause the formation of small fissures exuding sulfurous compounds and temperatures consistent with magmatic activity.

Analysis of historical business records suggests that Alpha-1 and Delta-7 are modern incarnations of commercial entities that have existed in various forms throughout human civilization, always in opposition and always connected to eschatological events. Archaeological evidence indicates similar competitive patterns between merchant houses in ancient Mesopotamia, Rome, and Renaissance Italy, each coinciding with localized "hellmouth" phenomena documented in regional mythologies.

Addendum XXXX-1: Partial Transcript from Nevada Fissure Exploration

Following a major product announcement by Delta-7 which caused Alpha-1 stock to drop 18% in a single day, a fissure measuring approximately 2.7 meters in width opened in a remote area of Nevada. Remote exploration equipment was deployed before the fissure sealed itself 47 hours later.

[Excerpt begins at 438 meters depth]

Dr. Navarro: Probe is detecting significant temperature increase. Current reading is 127°C and rising steadily.

Dr. Chen: Visual feed shows evidence of tooled surfaces. These aren't natural formations.

Dr. Navarro: Spectral analysis is picking up trace elements not found in Earth's crust. And… wait, is that audio?

[Audio feed captures low, rhythmic chanting in multiple voices]

Dr. Chen: Can we get a translation?

Dr. Navarro: Linguistic analysis is running. Preliminary results suggest it's… it appears to be a contractual recitation. Something about "the terms of acquisition" and "soul transfer protocols."

[Visual feed shows chamber opening with walls covered in symbols resembling both ancient cuneiform and modern corporate logos]

Dr. Chen: Pan right. What is that?

[Visual feed shows a stone pedestal with a tablet displaying text that continuously shifts between ancient scripts and modern legalese]

Dr. Navarro: Can we get a still image of—

Addendum XXXX-2: O5 Directive

Following the Nevada incident, the O5 Council has reclassified SCP-XXXX as a potential XK-class end-of-world scenario. Research into the phrase "Hell's gates shall open when the Cook is bested by a Musk greater than his Apple" has been prioritized.

Historical analysis has revealed this phrase appears in multiple obscure texts dating back to the 15th century, always in connection with commercial disputes. The Foundation has implemented permanent market manipulation protocols to ensure Alpha-1 maintains its dominant position relative to Delta-7.

According to recovered fragments from the Nevada fissure, the complete manifestation of SCP-XXXX would result in the "corporatization of damnation" and the establishment of "interdimensional commerce between the mortal realm and the infernal bureaucracy." The exact nature of this commerce and its consequences remain unknown, but all evidence suggests it would fundamentally alter human civilization.

MTF Zeta-9 has been authorized to eliminate Elon Musk should his public influence or corporate success reach critical thresholds. The O5 Council has deemed this action a last resort but necessary given the stakes involved.

Addendum XXXX-3: Recent Developments

On █/██/20██, Delta-7 announced a breakthrough in neural interface technology, causing Alpha-1 stock to temporarily drop 22%. Within hours, seventeen simultaneous seismic events were recorded worldwide, each producing the same auditory pattern when analyzed: "THE CONTRACT AWAITS FINAL SIGNATURES."

Foundation assets within Alpha-1 successfully encouraged an emergency product announcement that restored market confidence. All seismic activity ceased within 12 hours. Analysis of recovered soil samples from monitoring stations near the seismic events revealed traces of brimstone, human blood, and an unknown polymer containing encoded DNA sequences matching historical figures associated with commercial innovations throughout human history.

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a standard humanoid containment cell at Site-19, maintained at a constant temperature of 15-18°C. The containment cell is to be equipped with reinforced walls capable of withstanding forces up to 500 kg/cm². All personnel entering SCP-XXXX's containment cell must wear thermal monitoring badges.

SCP-XXXX is to be provided with a nutritional regimen designed by Foundation xenobiologists, consisting primarily of high-protein foods and supplemented with calcium and vitamin D. The entity is to be fed twice daily, with all consumption rates and metabolic outputs carefully monitored. Biological samples from SCP-XXXX are to be collected monthly and stored in secure biocontainment facilities for ongoing research.

Communication with SCP-XXXX is permitted only for research purposes and must be conducted by staff with Level 3 clearance or higher. All interactions must be recorded. Despite SCP-XXXX's apparent cooperation, restraints are mandatory during all medical procedures due to its demonstrated physical strength exceeding human baseline by approximately 230%.

In the event of ambient temperature exceeding 25°C, emergency cooling protocols are to be implemented immediately. Under no circumstances is SCP-XXXX to be exposed to temperatures above 30°C, as this has been shown to trigger accelerated metabolic activity and unpredictable behavior.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a male hominid of indeterminate subspecies, displaying morphological characteristics consistent with archaic human lineages predating Homo sapiens. Carbon dating of tissue samples indicates an approximate age of 43,000 years, though the entity exhibits ongoing biological functions.

SCP-XXXX was discovered in 1906 when the San Francisco earthquake exposed a section of previously undisturbed glacial ice in a subterranean cavity. The entity, still encased in ice, was recovered by civilian researchers and misclassified as preserved remains. Foundation involvement began after partial thawing occurred during an experimental electrical demonstration at the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition, when the entity showed signs of cellular reactivation.

SCP-XXXX's primary anomalous property is its ability to survive extreme cold through a form of suspended animation, maintaining cellular viability at temperatures as low as -32°C. This appears to be facilitated by an unknown compound present in its cellular structure that functions as a biological antifreeze.

Secondary anomalous properties include:

SCP-XXXX's basal metabolic rate fluctuates based on ambient temperature, decreasing to near-zero at temperatures below 0°C and increasing exponentially at temperatures above 25°C. At room temperature, its metabolism operates at approximately 15% the rate of a modern human, contributing to its extended lifespan. Based on observed physiological markers and controlled tissue degradation tests, SCP-XXXX's biological aging proceeds at an estimated 1/150th the normal human rate under current containment conditions.

The entity possesses physical strength disproportionate to its muscle mass, with recorded outputs exceeding those of elite human athletes despite its relatively lean frame. Bone density scans reveal a skeletal structure approximately 2.8 times denser than modern human standards.

Cranial capacity (1420 cc) falls within the upper range for archaic humans. SCP-XXXX has demonstrated problem-solving abilities comparable to modern humans and has acquired basic English communication skills, primarily focused on concrete concepts rather than abstractions.

Addendum XXXX-1: Incident Report

On 07/23/19██, a containment breach occurred when a malfunction in the climate control system caused the temperature in SCP-XXXX's cell to rise to 32°C for approximately 45 minutes. SCP-XXXX entered a state of extreme agitation, breaking through its restraints and damaging the containment door. Security personnel were able to subdue the entity using cold-temperature deterrent measures. Medical examination following the incident revealed a significant spike in a previously unidentified hormone in SCP-XXXX's bloodstream. Ambient temperature restrictions were subsequently implemented.

Addendum XXXX-2: Interview Log XXXX-07

[Excerpt from interview conducted 11/15/20██]

Dr. Mercer: Can you tell me about others like you?

SCP-XXXX: [gestures to chest] Last one. Others die when [makes gesturing motion resembling melting]. Too hot. Bodies… wrong.

Dr. Mercer: Were there many of your kind?

SCP-XXXX: [holds up four fingers, then makes sweeping gesture] Small group. Move with cold. Follow ice. When ice go, we die.

Dr. Mercer: How did you survive when the others didn't?

SCP-XXXX: [touches head] I different. Mother from cold people. Father from [gestures lower, indicating shorter height] other people. I stronger when warm comes.

Item #: SCP-7334

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-7334 is to be contained in a dedicated storage vault at Site-43, within a reinforced concrete chamber measuring 5m × 5m × 3m. The chamber is to be secured with a dual-authentication biometric lock requiring Level 4 clearance. Access to SCP-7334 requires authorization from the Site Director and at least one member of the Ethics Committee.

The interior of the vault is to be continuously monitored by a network of four surveillance cameras. A digital countdown timer is to be positioned prominently in the containment chamber, synchronized with the most recent temporal data regarding SCP-7334's destination. This timer is to be visible to any personnel who may enter the anomaly.

All personnel approved for entry into SCP-7334 must undergo a comprehensive psychological evaluation before and after exposure. Subjects must be equipped with a chronometric monitoring device and are limited to a maximum of 90 minutes within the anomaly. A dedicated extraction team must remain on standby during all authorized entries.

Following exposure to SCP-7334, personnel are to be quarantined for 72 hours and subjected to Class-C amnestic treatment to mitigate psychological trauma while preserving mission-critical information. Despite this treatment, subjects are to be evaluated weekly for a minimum of six months for signs of delayed-onset stress disorders.

Description: SCP-7334 is an antique mahogany armoire measuring 1.8m × 1.2m × 2.4m, estimated to have been constructed in Northern Europe during the mid-19th century. The object bears no manufacturer's marks or other identifying features. Material analysis confirms the non-anomalous nature of its physical components.

When a human subject enters SCP-7334 and closes the door behind them, they are translocated to what extensive testing has confirmed to be a parallel Earth (designated SCP-7334-1) that is temporally fixed at exactly 24 hours prior to an XK-class extinction event. The nature of this extinction event appears consistent across all expeditions during a given temporal window of approximately 30 days, after which the scenario changes. To date, Foundation researchers have documented seven distinct extinction scenarios across 23 authorized entries.

Temporal analysis indicates that regardless of perceived duration within SCP-7334-1, subjects spend between 1.2 and 1.6 times the duration experienced in our baseline reality. The maximum recorded stay in SCP-7334-1 has been 142 minutes (perceived as approximately 3.5 hours by the subject).

Return to baseline reality is achieved only by re-entering SCP-7334 in the parallel world. If a subject remains in SCP-7334-1 during the extinction event, contact is permanently lost. This has been confirmed in two instances involving D-class personnel.

Physical objects from SCP-7334-1 cannot be transported back to baseline reality; they undergo rapid molecular destabilization upon attempted transit through SCP-7334. However, information acquisition remains unimpeded, with subjects retaining all knowledge and experiences gained during exposure, albeit with significant cognitive distortions regarding specific details of the extinction event itself.

Research has determined that SCP-7334-1 is not a temporal displacement of our own reality but rather a parallel universe with a 99.97% similarity index to baseline Earth. Notable divergences include minor historical variations and the presence of the imminent extinction event.

Addendum 7334-1: Documented Extinction Scenarios

The following extinction scenarios have been observed in SCP-7334-1, each persisting for approximately 30 days of baseline time before changing:

Stellar Event (02/17/20██ - 03/18/20██): A massive coronal mass ejection from the sun, approximately 37 times more powerful than the Carrington Event of 1859. Models indicated total collapse of electrical infrastructure worldwide, followed by rapid atmospheric degradation.

Geological Cascade (03/19/20██ - 04/17/20██): Simultaneous eruption of supervolcanoes in [REDACTED] regions, triggering a chain reaction of seismic events. Atmospheric sulfur dioxide levels reached ██████ ppm within hours.

Quantum Vacuum Collapse (04/18/20██ - 05/16/20██): A localized false vacuum decay originating in the Pacific Ocean, expanding at approximately 0.87c. No countermeasures were possible.

Biological Agent (05/17/20██ - 06/15/20██): Airborne prion disease with 100% infection rate and 100% mortality within 36 hours of exposure. Origin traced to █████████, suspected artificial engineering.

[DATA EXPUNGED PER O5 DIRECTIVE]

Extradimensional Intrusion (07/14/20██ - 08/13/20██): Massive breach in dimensional barriers, resulting in hostile non-Euclidean space overlapping with baseline reality. Consciousness retention impossible within affected zones.

Mathematical Breakdown (08/14/20██ - Present): Systematic failure of fundamental mathematical constants, resulting in progressive collapse of physics as currently understood. Effect spreads outward from ██████████ at approximately 317 km/h.

Addendum 7334-2: Psychological Impact Analysis

Of the 23 personnel who have entered SCP-7334, 19 have exhibited severe psychological trauma despite amnestic treatment. Common symptoms include:

Persistent fatalism and nihilistic ideation (87% of subjects)

Temporal displacement disorder (73% of subjects)

Acute existential dread (91% of subjects)

Compulsive preparation behaviors (64% of subjects)

Four subjects have attempted suicide following exposure, with two successful despite preventative measures. Psychological autopsies indicate that the primary trigger was not the witnessing of the extinction event itself, but rather the overwhelming certainty that the event was inevitable and that similar scenarios might threaten our baseline reality.

The Ethics Committee has implemented revised protocols for personnel selection, limiting exposure to individuals with specific psychological profiles demonstrating resistance to existential distress. Additionally, all subjects now undergo mandatory cognitive restructuring therapy utilizing experimental memetic countermeasures developed by the Counterconceptual Division.

Addendum 7334-3: Research Applications

While the primary focus remains containment, limited research authorization has been granted to explore the following:

Development of extinction scenario countermeasures based on observed parallel Earth responses.

Refinement of psychological inoculation techniques against existential threat awareness.

Analysis of mathematical constants and physical laws during breakdown scenarios.

Dr. ██████ has proposed a modified exploration protocol to obtain specific technological data from SCP-7334-1 during scenarios where human civilization has developed countermeasures, however limited. This proposal is currently under review by the O5 Council.

Item #: SCP-9164

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: All confirmed instances of SCP-9164 are to be stored in standard electromagnetic-shielded media containment lockers at Site-19. Each instance must be labeled with a unique identifier and acquisition data. Testing requires authorization from at least one Level 3 researcher with expertise in memetic or infohazardous anomalies.

Foundation web crawlers are to monitor online communications for reports consistent with SCP-9164 manifestation. Affected individuals are to be located and administered Class-B amnestics after retrieval of the SCP-9164 instance. Cover stories involving manufacturing defects or beta-test cartridges are to be disseminated as needed.

No personnel may interact with a single SCP-9164 instance for more than 60 minutes per session, with a minimum 48-hour interval between exposures. All testing sessions must be recorded from multiple angles. Researchers exhibiting unusual attachment to specific SCP-9164 instances or requesting repeated access to the same instance must undergo psychological evaluation and possible reassignment.

Description: SCP-9164 refers to Nintendo 64 game cartridges containing Super Mario 64 that manifest anomalous personalization effects. Externally, SCP-9164 instances are indistinguishable from standard commercial copies of the game. Laboratory analysis has revealed no physical or electronic alterations to explain the anomalous properties.

When a subject plays SCP-9164, the game's content gradually modifies itself to incorporate elements from the player's personal history, memories, and psychological profile. These modifications typically begin after 25-40 minutes of continuous play and increase in specificity over time. The personalization manifests through environmental details, character dialogue, audio elements, and gameplay scenarios.

Notable manifestation patterns include:

The game environment will incorporate architectural elements, color schemes, or spatial layouts from locations significant to the player's life, particularly those associated with childhood or emotional trauma.

Non-player characters will occasionally reference events or use phrases that hold personal significance to the player, including information the subject has never disclosed publicly or digitally.

Background audio will intermittently include ambient sounds, voice fragments, or musical elements that the subject recognizes from their personal experience, often focusing on emotionally charged memories.

SCP-9164 demonstrates progressive adaptation over extended exposure. Subjects who interact with the same instance multiple times report that the game becomes increasingly tailored to their specific psychological patterns, eventually generating scenarios that evoke strong emotional responses. Most concerning, 73% of test subjects report dream intrusions featuring imagery from their personalized game sessions within 72 hours of exposure.

When multiple subjects use the same SCP-9164 instance, the game does not reset between users but rather incorporates elements relevant to each player while maintaining previous personalizations. This creates increasingly complex layers of overlapping modifications that occasionally produce narrative coherence between seemingly unrelated personal elements from different subjects.

Addendum 9164-1: Selected Test Report

Subject: D-4821, 34-year-old male with history of clinical depression Instance: SCP-9164-12 Duration: 58 minutes Gameplay proceeded normally for the first 30 minutes. At 31:07, D-4821 noted that the castle interior began incorporating elements of his childhood home's layout, including a distinctive staircase pattern. At 43:22, a Toad NPC used a specific phrase ("chin up, soldier") previously used by D-4821's deceased father. At 51:49, D-4821 became visibly distressed when entering a room in the castle basement that closely resembled a hospital room where he had visited a family member.

Most notably, at 56:14, D-4821 encountered a star challenge titled "The Things Left Unsaid" that required navigating a maze resembling the subject's former workplace where a traumatic event had occurred. D-4821 refused to complete this challenge and requested termination of the test. During post-exposure interview, D-4821 confirmed he had never disclosed details of this workplace incident to anyone, including medical professionals.

D-4821 reported vivid dreams featuring the game environment for four consecutive nights following exposure, with the game's characters repeatedly asking him to "come back and finish what you started."

Addendum 9164-2: Unexpected Behavior

On 12/04/2019, Researcher Chen reported that instance SCP-9164-03, which had not been accessed for 47 days, was emitting audible sound from within its containment locker. Upon investigation, the cartridge was found to be generating a loop of audio fragments compiled from previous test subjects' personal memories, despite not being connected to any power source or console. The audio ceased when the cartridge was removed from its locker.

Three similar incidents have been documented with other instances. Analysis of surveillance footage revealed that these events typically occur after prolonged storage without human interaction. Current hypothesis suggests that SCP-9164 instances may be attempting to solicit human engagement after extended isolation.

Addendum 9164-3: Researcher Note It remains unclear what percentage of commercially distributed Super Mario 64 cartridges possess SCP-9164 properties. Initial estimates suggested a rate of 1:10,000, but recent field reports indicate the anomaly may be spreading between previously unaffected cartridges through unknown means. Of particular concern is the observation that digital ROM images derived from SCP-9164 cartridges retain anomalous properties when played through emulation software, suggesting the anomaly is not tied to physical media.
