Special Containment Procedures: Observation Post 714 has been constructed in the near vicinity of SCP-7147, under the guise of a privately owned research station. On-site personnel are tasked with deterring civilians exploration of the area and prepping for upcoming performances of Procedure 700-HARPOCRATES.

Personnel assigned to SCP-7147 are to have their amnesticization record1 screened to ensure they meet the requirements outlined in RAISA-Mandate-49123. Any personnel who fail to meet such requirements are prohibited from working with SCP-7147.

All proposals to perform Procedure 700-HARPOCRATES must be approved by two personnel of Level 4/7147 clearance as well as the Decommissioning Department.

Description: SCP-7147 is a forest glade located in the Olympic Mountains of the Pacific Northwest. The perimeter of SCP-7147 has developed in a manner which resembles the Foundation insignia.

Prior to 05/17/2022, any objects, entities, or concepts recognized as anomalous by the Foundation that were brought into SCP-7147 would either disappear entirely or be permanently altered in such a way so as to conform with consensus reality, effectively neutralizing all anomalous phenomenon.

Addendum 7147-1: Discovery

SCP-7147 was first encountered by members of MTF Beta-4 ("Castaways") on 03/05/2022. The detachment was in the process of tracking four instances of SCP-████ which had recently escaped from a nearby GoI-466 (Wilson's Wildlife Solutions) facility.

During pursuit, one of the SCP-████ instances fled towards SCP-7147, however, upon clearing the tree line, the entity was transformed into a snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus), allowing it to be captured without further difficulty. While the coordinates and time of the incident were recorded, further investigation was postponed until the completion of the MTF's objective.

Following the successful capture of the rest of the SCP-████ instances, the Lepus americanus specimen was tested and confirmed to no longer possess anomalous abilities. The subsequent incident investigation ultimately determined that SCP-7147 was the cause of the entity's neutralization. This discovery led to the establishment of Observation Post 714 as well as the initialization of a series of tests to determine the extent of SCP-7147's capabilities.

NOTICE FROM THE FOUNDATION RECORDS AND INFORMATION SECURITY ADMINISTRATION

Please note that all official files written before 05/17/2022 refer to SCP-7147 as UAE-OP714-1. The UAE (Unclassified Anomalous Entity) type designation is a temporary placeholder used in official documents for anomalies that have not yet been given a proper designation or file. The reason for the two month delay between SCP-7147's discovery and its proper classification was an unexpected influx of anomalous phenomenon across the globe, leading to a backlog of requests submitted to the Classification Committee.

Addendum 7147-2: Test Logs

All anomalies tested were brought into SCP-7147 before being transferred to one of Observation Post 714's isolated testing rooms. Testing was overseen by Dr. Alexander Sharpe and Dr. Serena Lewis. Below is an abridged test log.

Anomaly Tested
Notes
Results

AO-00013
AO-00013 is a six-sided die which occasionally lands on a 7.
AO-00013 has not been observed to land on a 7 since entering UAE-OP714-1.

SCP-444
Test was conducted to determine the effect of UAE-OP714-1 on individuals afflicted by a memetic pathogen. Testing procedure consisted of a subject infected with SCP-444 being brought within UAE-OP714-1. Language recognition software was then used to determine if they were still infected. Agents present for the test were provided with appropriate noise-cancelling headsets.
Upon entering, the subject appeared to be confused and disoriented. After some time they spoke the English word "Hello?" and recoiled in surprise, at which point they were removed from UAE-OP714-1. Post-test analysis has revealed that all changes to brain structure caused by SCP-444 were reverted. Additionally, the subjects' memories were altered such that all echoic memories2 of SCP-444 had been removed, leaving them to believe they had spent the past several months in silence.

Y-909
No plans to test the Y-909 substance were ever made, however, Agent Finnegan, who was assisting in testing UAE-OP714-1, had been previously administered Y-909 derivative amnestics.
Upon entering UAE-OP714-1 Agent Finnegan regained memories previously removed by Y-909 based amnestics. Though this initially went unnoticed, Agent Finnegan reported himself to his superior under the belief that the reemerging memories were invasive thoughts brought on by a memetic hazard. Following this incident, all staff assigned to work on UAE-OP714-1 are to have their amnesticization records screened to prevent breaches of informational security.

Kant Counter
This test was originally meant to determine the hume levels found within UAE-OP714-1, not the effects of UAE-OP714-1 on kant counters.
All kant counters brought within UAE-OP714-1 returned an error reading. Subsequent tests revealed all electrical components within the counters to still be operational, however, the [REDACTED] component was found to no longer react to hume differentials. The implications of this result are still being investigated.

SCP-682
As per standard procedure, a tissue sample of SCP-682 was used in place of SCP-682 itself.
The tissue sample disappeared immediately, leaving no traces. SCP-682 was noted to face the direction of UAE-OP714-1 from its cell at Site-19 upon the completion of the test.

UAE-OP714-2
During regular testing an organism resembling a coyote (Canis latrans) was seen in the near vicinity of UAE-OP714-1. Research staff witnessed the coyote (later designated as UAE-OP714-2) use minor telekinetic abilities. After some time the specimen wandered into UAE-OP714-1.
The Canis latrans specimen was unaffected by UAE-OP714-1.

A non-anomalous paperclip
Dr. Lewis proposed the creation of a fake SCP file with subject being a non-anomalous paperclip. The file described the existence of the paperclip as anomalous. This paperclip was then brought within UAE-OP714-1.
The paperclip disappeared.

Addendum 7147-3: Procedure 700-HARPOCRATES Proposal

Upon the completion of the initial battery of tests, the following memorandum and proposal were submitted to the O5 council.

+ Access Memorandum

To: The Office of the O5

From: Dr. Alexander Sharpe

Subject: Proposal for Procedure 700-HARPOCRATES

Esteemed members of the O5 Council, I am writing to inform you of a major breakthrough with the anomalous glade recently discovered in the Olympic Mountains. You tasked me with determining the extent of UAE-OP714-1's abilities and I must confess I was not expecting the results we found.

The short of it is that we have been granted a boon. A genuine stroke of good luck. The glade does not simply neutralize anomalies, instead, it neutralizes whatever the Foundation recognizes as anomalous. This small distinction has opened a number of possibilities for us:

The Foundation would be able to neutralize anomalies that cannot be successfully transported to the glade. By creating an SCP file that designates a proxy item as the source of a separate anomaly's effects, we would only need to bring the proxy within UAE-OP714-1 to be rid of the anomaly.

The Foundation would be able to neutralize non-localized anomalies. (See above)

The Foundation would be able to neutralize non-anomalous threats. While this may seem to go beyond our jurisdiction, we are often forced to deal with GoIs which, while not inherently anomalous, utilize anomalies for their own benefit.

The Foundation would be able to neutralize certain harmful aspects of anomalies while keeping those components which we deem beneficial. This could be accomplished through precise rewrites of our files that would outline certain undesirable features as anomalous while noting other features to be accepted as a part of baseline reality.

I recognize that the Foundation is not in the business of destroying the anomalous, and that manipulating the non-anomalous to our benefit may not align with our modus operandi, however, I believe it is our duty to seize this opportunity for change, for the betterment of humanity. I have neglected to mention that the glade has taken up the shape of our insignia. If this is not a clear declaration from the universe in its trust of our mission, of our capabilities, then I do not know what is.

Secure, Contain, Protect,

Colead Researcher of Observation Post 714, Dr. Alexander Sharpe.

Procedure Proposal: Procedure 700-HARPOCRATES

Procedure Designation: Procedure 700-HARPOCRATES

Procedure Type: Digital File Creation

Primary Aim: To decommission threats to the Foundation and humanity as a whole.

Required Materials: UAE-OP714-1, Administrative clearance to alter the Foundation database as necessary.

Required Funding: N/A

Involved Persons:

Head Researcher of UAE-OP714-1: Dr. Alexander Sharpe

Decommissioning Department Liaison: [ROLE UNASSIGNED]

RAISA Liaison: [ROLE UNASSIGNED]

O5 Council Liaison: [ROLE UNASSIGNED]

Execution: All proposals to execute Procedure 700-HARPOCRATES on anomalous objects must be approved by the Head Researcher of UAE-OP714-1 and undergo proper decommissioning approval. Upon receiving approval an SCP file will be drafted which highlights the undesired anomalous phenomena as being caused by a harmless proxy object located at Observation Post 714. This file will then be uploaded to a secure Foundation server by the designated RAISA Liaison and the proxy object will be brought within UAE-OP714-1. Once the decommissioning is confirmed the file is to be designated as a -D or fully expunged.

Uses of Procedure 700-HARPOCRATES on non-anomalous objects/entities/phenomena must receive additional approval from the Office of the O5 to ensure the procedure is used in accordance with the Foundation's mission statement.

Contingencies: To prevent UAE-OP714-1's anomalous abilities from affecting itself, any files which detail UAE-OP714-1 or its effects must explicitly refer to it as non-anomalous. This would require the following actions to be undertaken:

Redacting all references to UAE-OP714-1 as anomalous in this proposal as well as the associated memorandum.

The careful crafting of UAE-OP714-1's SCP file to ensure there are no explicit or implicit references to it as anomalous. It is recommended that a specialist from the Department of Miscommunications be consulted on this matter.

Assigning UAE-OP714-1 the Eparch classification.

After careful deliberation, the O5 Council voted in favor of a slightly modified version of Procedure 700-HARPOCRATES with several changes being added to the approval process. Firstly, all proposals regarding non-anomalous entities must be approved by the Ethics Committee. Secondly, the number of Level 4/7147 personnel required to receive approval was changed to two.

Addendum 7147-4: Neutralization

On 05/17/2022 UAE-OP714-1 was assigned the official designation of SCP-7147. Despite all contingency plans being followed, SCP-7147 was found to be neutralized. Immediate investigation revealed a single note to be located at the center of SCP-7147.
