Item № : SCP-XXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX is to be kept within a low-security simian containment enclosure and supplied with a typewriter, writing utensils, and paper. Requests made by SCP-XXX for further amenities are to be vetted by the resident Simian Containment Director.
All anomalous phenomena documented by SCP-XXX are to be researched and contained by MTF U-4 ("Gentlemen"). In the event that SCP-XXX documents an anomaly using a previously undiscovered esoteric object class, said classification is to be added to the Foundation Esoteric-Class Database.
Additional Note: In a joint effort with GoI-466 (Wilson's Wildlife Solutions), SCP-XXX has been transferred to Enclosure 03 at Wilson's Wildlife Center to improve its morale. All documentation produced by SCP-XXX pertaining to anomalies and anomalous phenomena are to be analyzed by Foundation operatives working at Enclosure 03.

SCP-XXX possesses extensive knowledge of human and world history, as well as a wide variety of topics; most notably anomalous phenomena. SCP-XXX is capable of explaining and writing documentation for anomalies unknown to the Foundation, and often does so without any instruction. The means by which SCP-XXX gains knowledge of anomalous phenomena is unknown.
To date, SCP-XXX has contributed 240 documents relating to novel anomalies to the Foundation.

Hey Duncan, I found this in that chimp's cage and I thought you'd get a kick out of it. Dunno how it got the knack for writing like the Skippers — maybe it wants to stay with them, who knows? ;) |
