Item#: SCP-6655

Containment Class: keter

Secondary Class: {$secondary-class}

Disruption Class: ekhi

Risk Class: critical

Archived Special Containment Procedures: Pending. Information regarding SCP-6655 is to be restricted to Site-55, which has undergone noospheric quarantine and placed under lockdown until further notice.

Archived Description: SCP-6655 is a highly contagious, infohazardous concept discovered by Memetics Researcher Morgan Riley on 3/10/2017. While the specifics are still under active research, SCP-6655 is extremely antithetical to conventional human thought. For further details, consult the testing log.

Addendum: Archived Testing log

Test Log 1

Subject: D-43724

Project lead: Researcher Morgan Riley

Procedure: Subject introduced to SCP-6655 infected media and quarantined under standard information censor practices.

Results: Within 6 hours, D-43724's communications became a vector for SCP-6655. After 24 hours, subject's behavior showed major deviations from known personality, including:

Decreased empathy

Increased proclivity for violent acts

Negligible attempts at self-preservation

Incomprehensibility

After 48 hours, D-43724 was sedated and the test was terminated.

Test Log 2

Subject: D-43724

Project lead: Researcher Morgan Riley

Procedure: Subject amnescitized to determine possible countermeasures to SCP-6655 infection.

Results: Conventional targeted amnestics failed to purge SCP-6655 symptoms from D-43724. Likewise, general amnestics capable of removing all memories after SCP-6655 infection also resulted in failure.

After extensive testing, a mixture (hence referred to as RMD-6655) of Class D Amnestics, Class X Mnestics, Chlorpromazine and Lithium salts was successful in purging SCP-6655 from D-43724, although long term side-effects including severe photophobia, difficulty forming new memories, confusion, and insomnia make this inpractical as a treatment. The makeup of RMD-6655 can be requested by members of the Memetics Department.

Test Log 3

Subject: Researcher Morgan Riley

Project lead: Researcher Morgan Riley

Procedure: Impromptu test. Subject amnescitized to determine possible countermeasures to SCP-6655 infection.

Results: Following discovery of SCP-6655 infection during Test 1, Researcher Riley attempted to self medicate with a mixture of high-grade amnestics, mnestics, and mood stabilizing lithium salts. Experiment resulted in failure.

Results: Irrelevant.

[ ███ extraneous tests omitted]

Test Log 5

Subject: Site Director Chol-Su Kim

Project lead: Researcher Morgan Riley

Procedure: See Test Log 5.

Results: Irrelevant.

Following the dissolution of the Memetics Department and the recontainment of SCP-6655 by the Foundation Fifth Department, the above information is deemed irrelevant.

Test Log 5

Subject: D-31255

Project lead: Executive Site Administrator Chol-Su Kim

Procedure: Stress test of Foundation Resources.

Results: Subject treated with RMD-6655, causing immediate state of panic. Subject vomits and objects to Test 5, citing large piles of viscera inside the test chamber and coating the room's walls. The visceral build-up is noted to be far below that required to impede Test 5, and as such testing continues.

Testing continues.

Approximately 33 hours later, testing concludes due to lack of viable Subject. Appropriate decontamination measures undertaken.

Test Log 5

Subject: Researcher Morgan Riley

Project lead: Executive Site Administrator Chol-Su Kim

Procedure: Infliction of RMD-6655 to sever connection to SCP-6655

Results: Subject displays severe distress at surroundings for unknown reason, proceeding to vomit excessively before fainting. Research assistants administer stimulants to resuscitate subject, who enters a state of severe panic.

No further legible information could be gathered, and test was terminated. Subject returned to Foundation Employment following re-enlightenment.

Test Log 1

Subject: Researcher Morgan Riley (Self)

Project lead: Researcher Morgan Riley

Procedure: Exploration of long term suffering potential of RMD-6655 inflicted subjects via a daily application of Remedy.

Results: Subject can barely even look at sunlight anymore. Memories come and go, subject cannot comprehensively put a mental timeline together. Several notable events are entirely missing. Whether this is due to trauma or RMD-6655 is unknown. Subject cannot sleep. Even if I could, the thought of the dreams make me sick. I need to get out of here.

Test Log 2

Subject: Morgan Riley (Me)

Project lead: Morgan Riley

Procedure: Attempt to breach lockdown of Site-55.

Results: There's no way out. Info quarantine has the site on lockdown and the elevator into the site's completely caved in. I'm stuck here with Them.

Test Log 5

Subject: D-31247 to D-31254

Project lead: Executive Site Administrator Chol-Su Kim

Procedure: Testing of Procedure-47-Orún.Procedure-47-Orún

█████████ ██ ███ █████ ████ ██ ████████, █████ ██ ██ ███ █ ███ █████ ██ ████ ██ ███. ██'█ █████ ███ ███ █████ ██ ███ ██'█ ███ ██████ ████ ██ ███ █████.

███ ███ - ██ ██████ - █████ ██████, ███████ ████ ███'█ ████ ████ ██████ █████ ██ ██████████.

████ ████████ ██ ██████████. █████ █████ █ █████████ ████████, ██ ████████ ███ ██ ██/██/████ ██ Procedure-47-Orún ████ ████.

Results: Testing begins.

Subjects Familiarized with Procedure-47-Orún. Several subjects display extreme distress upon being presented with such. Upon attempting to assault Archivist Steven Hound and escape the research chamber, paralysis induced in Subjects 1, 3 and 6 via puncture to the spinal cord to ensure compliance with testing conditions.

Subject 1 terminated via strangulation during preparation of procedure.

Subjects 2-4 terminated via exsanguination during procedure, causing catastrophic failure. Mean duration of 63 hours.

Subjects 5-7 survived full procedure. Zero anomalous results recorded. Testing of Procedure-48-Orún to begin.

Test Log 3

Subject: Morgan Riley (Me)

Project lead: Morgan Riley

Procedure: They don't even read this shit.

Results: They just test. They just test over and over. There's nothing even left to test, they just continue in the name of testing like a fucked up reflection of a reflection of what was once a Foundation site.

There's no life in Their eyes. They look like my coworkers - hell, they can even act like them sometimes. That's always the worst part. Lucy laughs in that cute way she always did, but now she's describing the best way to vivisect one of us. There's just something missing. The spark is gone, and trying to hold a conversation with Them makes me sick.

Test Log 4

Subject: Morgan Riley

Project lead: Morgan Riley

Procedure: I'm keeping track of time here

Results: I don't know what's in this stuff I have to take to stay myself anymore, but it's heavy shit. Whatever it is, They can't tell I'm here anymore. But there's just this… fog. Hours I can't account for, and what I can feels like a haze. When I sleep, I see what I did when I was Them.

I don't sleep anymore.

Test Log 6

Subject: Me

Project lead: Me

Procedure: They're looking for me

Results: It must have been Lucy. I couldn't help it. Seeing her as Them makes me want to break down, but I just had to see if anything was left. I followed her for several days. I watched as she walked into the blood-lined testing wing and carried out acts I heave at the thought of. I watched for the tiniest sliver of hope until I couldn't bear it anymore. I shouted at her. Begged her, screamed at her to remember - herself, me, anything. Just a glimmer of her outside what They want her to be.

There isn't. And now they know I'm here.

Test Log 5

Subject: D-31256 to D-31263

Project lead: Superior Fifth Researcher Lucy Jones

Procedure: Identification of unenlightened neurological patterns.

Results: Subject 1-8 administered RMD-6655. Direct Neurological investigation of Subject 1 fails after subject self-termination on research tools. Further subjects restrained. Testing Continues.

Subjects 2-5 expired during processing with negligible practical data. Testing Continues. Subject 6-8 provided far more valuable data during long term neurological analysis. Experiment concluded after 45 hours due to lack of viable Subjects.

Isolation of unenlightened neural pathways now feasible. Infrastructure for identification to be implemented.

Test Log 7

Subject: me

Project lead:

Procedure: They're Outside

Results: I've blocked myself in one of Their fucked up 'research rooms'. This isn't going to buy me long. Site's still under info quarantine, and I can hear them slamming into the door. It's been days since I've slept and weeks since I've been okay. I'm done. I'm tired. I hear her outside. She's begging me to let her in. It's still her voice, but everything inside it is gone. The care, the laugh, everything. It's the most disgusting thing I've ever heard, but I can't even bring myself to care anymore.

I'm tired.
