Recovery notes: SCP-1327 was obtained from the psychology 
department of University in 1993. The object became known to 
the Foundation when a graduate student developed signs of severe 
mental retardation after using it in a study of Aloha-Thalassemia 
Syndrome patients.

Date: 06-25-2002 

Test administrator: D-60144, a former elementary 
school mathematics teacher 

Test taker: D-59903, a vagrant with no formal education 
Task used: SCP-1327-4 (arithmetic task) 

Results: Subjects completed the task without incident 
and entered the complex seizure state as expected. 
When subsequently tested on a standard intelligence 
scale, D-59903 displayed a significant increase in 
mathematical aptitude, going from the 6th percentile to 
the 82nd. D-60144 was unable to perform basic 
arithmetic and became highly agitated before he was 
sedated by Foundation guards.

Test administrator: D-59903 

Test taker: D-60144 

Task used: SCP-1327-4 (arithmetic task) 

Results: D-59903 repeatedly remarked on D-60144's 
poor performance. Task took approximately 2 hours to 
complete due to incessant taunting from D-59903. Post- 
seizure testing showed that both subjects had returned 
to their original levels of mathematical competence. 


Researcher: Dr. Pran 

Date: 06-30-2002 

Test administrator: D-60150, a former gang member of 
average intelligence 

Test taker: D-59921, left in a persistent vegetative state 


after exposure to SCP- 

Task used: SCP 1327-2 (vocabulary task) 

Results: D-60150 showed some initial reluctance but 
eventually attempted to administer the test. D-59921 
remained in a vegetative state and did not respond to 
D-60150's questions. No seizure state occurred and 
there was no subsequent change in D-60150's 
vocabulary. 


Researcher: Dr. Pran 

Date: 07-03-2002 

Test administrator: D-60259, a murderer with average 
memory capacity 

Test taker: D-60263, an autistic savant with eidetic 
memory 

Task used: SCP 1327-5 (numerical working memory 
task). D-60263 was instructed to respond “I don't know” 
to each question. 

Results: D-60259 acquired a domain-specific working 
memory span in excess of 500 unique numbers or 
musical notes, but showed no improvement in memory 
for words, spatial locations, or visual scenes. D-60263's 
memory performance was average for numbers and 
music but remained extraordinarily high in all other 
domains. 

Notes: So performance on the test doesn't matter — as 
long as there's some kind of response, subjects' actual 
intelligence is swapped regardless. 


Researcher: Dr. Pran 

Date: 10-13-2002 

Test administrator: D-61553, a serial rapist with 
average general intelligence 

Test taker: A rhesus macaque monkey (species Macaca 
mulatta) trained to hold up a small placard saying “I don't 
know” when prompted 

Task used: SCP-1327-1 (analogies task) 

Results: D-61553 attempted to leave after the first five 


questions, protesting that the test was “the stupidest 
fucking thing I've ever seen,” but was persuaded to 
complete the task. Post-seizure testing showed that 
D-61553 was unable to understand several forms of 
basic logic, including syllogisms, implication, and modus 
ponens. The monkey displayed human-level analogical 
reasoning ability. 


Researcher: Dr. Pran 

Date: 11-01-2002 

Test administrator: D-62791, a murderer with slightly 
below-average general intelligence 

Test taker: A bottlenose dolphin (species Tursiops 
truncatus) trained to make a shrugging motion with its 
pectoral flippers when prompted 

Task used: SCP 1327-3 (general knowledge task) 
Results: [DATA EXPUNGED] 

Notes: Further experiments with dolphin subjects are 
strongly discouraged. 


Researcher: Dr. Pran 

Date: 11-15-2002 

Test administrator: D-59841, a multiple sex offender 
with genius-level intelligence 

Test taker: D-61224, a methamphetamine dealer who 
suffered severe brain damage after accidental exposure 
to chemical fumes 

Task used: Full battery (SCP-1327-1 through -10) 
Results: Despite extensive damage to cortical regions 
associated with speech and motor control, D-61224 was 
able to stay responsive throughout the test with the aid of 
Class-C stimulants. The first effects became apparent 
upon completion of SCP-1327-2, when D-59841 began 
to pronounce words in the testing materials phonetically 
rather than according to their proper pronunciation. 
Further advancement through SCP-1327-4 and -5 
prevented D-59841 from tallying the scores in each task. 
At this point D-59841 began to show signs of extreme 


distress and had to be forcibly restrained. Upon 
completing SCP-1327-6 and -7, D-59841 lost the ability 
to read the testing materials, and complained that the 
subsequent pages were full of "squiggle things" rather 
than letters. When instructed to continue, D-59841 again 
violently attempted to cease testing and was placed 
under sedation, and instructed to conduct the rest of the 
test by simply holding the instruction page up so that 
D-61224 could see it. Finally, completion of SCP-1327-9 
and -10 resulted in total visual agnosia, rendering 
D-59841 completely unable to recognize objects in his 
surroundings or navigate through physical spaces 
without colliding into obstructions. D-61224 showed no 
increase in aptitude, and subsequent functional imaging 
showed no increase in brain activation in regions 
associated with visual, linguistic, mathematical, or 
mnemonic processing. 

Notes: Organic brain damage appears to prevent 
intelligence transfer - at least in one direction. Couldn't 
reverse this, as neither subject was able to act as 
administrator after the test was completed.

SCP-1328: 51st State of Mind 


Item #: SCP-1328 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: The area affected by SCP-1328 
is to be monitored closely for any subjects affected by SCP-1328. 
Located subjects are to be detained, issued amnestics, and returned 
to their point of origin. Their time displaced shall be covered up ona 
case-by-case basis. 


Witnesses to SCP-1328 manifestation events are also to be issued 
amnestics. If SCP-1328's anomalous properties are reported to local 
governing bodies, embedded Foundation agents are to suppress the 
reports and issue amnestics to all witnesses. Affected 
documentation is to be stored within Site-—77's anomalous 
documentation archive. 


Description: 
Slated for revision, see Addenda — 05-2 


SCP-1328 is a phenomenon affecting the eastern portion of the 
state of Tennessee in the U.S. Between August of 1784 and 
December of 1785, it was a territory known as "Franklin". The 
territory was dissolved following this time, and did not display 
anomalous properties until at least 1866. 


Occasionally, maps, books, and other cartographic references will 
begin listing SCP-1328 as being part of another country, adding an 
"extra state" to their maps. These maps will not show SCP-1328 as 
being geographically attached to these nations, showing its physical 
location within the U.S. Documents affected by SCP-1328 will 
usually go into detail about how it was an important part of the 
nation's cultural history. Persons reading these documents will be 
convinced of its status and history, often attempting to show as 


many other subjects as possible and spreading SCP-1328's effect. 


Affected subjects may begin identifying themselves as residents of 
SCP-1328, and attempt to navigate to it overland. No matter how far 
the subject originally was from SCP-1328, they will arrive in one of 
its cities 2-3 hours after departure. Observation of affected subjects 
shows that they and whatever vehicle they are operating appear to 
fall into a chasm which suddenly emerge below them, followed by an 
emergence in SCP-1328. 


Subjects from different nations may encounter each other, which 
can cause confusion and anger due to SCP-1328's effect. Subjects 
will describe SCP-1328 as a disputed territory and insist that their 
nation has a stronger claim to it. This effect has led to local conflicts, 
as subjects affected by SCP-1328 attempt to terminate persons with 
perceptions that conflict with their own. This has escalated into 
small-scale guerilla conflicts prior to containment. 


SCP-1328 was discovered in 1866, by a Foundation precursor 
known as the "American Secure Containment Initiative". Originally 
believed to be a transportation anomaly, these subjects were 
returned to their homes. After the subjects returned, interviews were 
conducted and the anomalous effects established. As of 8/17/1887, 
SCP-1328 has been contained. Following its inheritance from the 
American Secure Containment Initiative, it was classified as an SCP 
object and given the Euclid classification. 


Addendum Original documentation: 
Item Number 1866-098 
Classification Type: Geographic/Non-Threatening 


ASCI Protocols for Containment: All men or women 
found to be situated within the area are to be expediently 
returned to their place of dwelling, with foreigners turned 
over to local magistrates as illegal aliens. Reports of the 
phenomenon are to be collected with our archive for 
additional study. 


Description: Phenomenon 1866-098 is a phenomenon 


affecting twelve of the counties within East Tennessee. 
On occasion, persons from other parts of the country and 
world as a whole will be deposited into it, and claim it to 
be a part of their country of origin. Once cleared of their 
confusion, they will usually persist in attempts to return 
home the way they entered, which is not possible. When 
first discovered, over twenty Hessians, a Briton, anda 
Cherokee Indian were found living in it. Further 
observation of this effect is ongoing. 


Addendum Profile of subjects affected by SCP-1328: 
Description of Subject: 65 year old Caucasian male. 
Country of Origin: Canada. 


Perception of SCP-1328: Subject believed that 
SCP-1328 had been won by Canada during the War of 
1812, and that the Americans living within the territory 
were illegal immigrants from North Dakota. Repeatedly 
attempted to report neighbors to the local police, and 
started numerous instances of harassment. Was issued 
a Class-C amnestic and returned home. 


Description of Subject: 22 year old Hispanic male. 
Country of Origin: El Salvador 


Perception of SCP-1328: Perceived that SCP-1328 was 
a region within his home country where more upper class 
citizens resided, and claimed to be attempting to visit 
relatives in the region. Further investigation revealed that 
several other El Salvadorian citizens had been residing 
within SCP-1328. All subjects were detained, issued 
Class-C amnestics, and returned to their homes. 


Description of Subject: 19 year old African male. 
Country of Origin: Somalia 


Perception of SCP-1328: Subject behaved like a raider, 
attempting to enter SCP-1328 and retrieve supplies for 


his militia organization. Claimed that SCP-1328 was part 
of his home country held by an opposing group, and that 
he was attempting to destabilize their power in the 
region. Subject is currently being held by Foundation 
personnel, awaiting decision of where to return him. 


Description of Subject: 40 year old Caucasian male. 
Country of Origin: Prussia. 


Perception of SCP-1328: Discovered during initial 
containment, subject appeared to be an officer in the 
Prussian army. Believed to be instance by the ASCI, he 
was given to local law enforcement. No further records 
have been found to corroborate his status past this. 
German records indicate that his study was found to be 
filled with cartography equipment, maps, and travel 
supplies, and he was reported as a defector. 


Addendum: Excerpt of a speech given by Michael Sen, a leader in 
the militia organization "Regular Alliance Troupe." 


... we do not take these incursions into our territory by 
the wretched alliance of the United States, Canada, 
North Korea, Mexico, Sealand, and Bavaria lightly! They 
are violations of our sovereignty and a national 
embarrassment! Franklin is a storied part of our cultural 
history, down to the beginning of our forefathers! They 
journeyed far to create it, and built the great underground 
superhighway with only sweat and broken bodies! When 
those men who super-travel under the Atlantic to 
upstage our right to this territory tell us it belongs to 
them, itis a slap in the face! Further escalation of this 
situation from any other nation will lead to negative 
action, possibly even a resolution within the United 
Nations to settle the matter... 


Sen and his staff were given Class-B amnestics, and all copies of 
the broadcast were suppressed. An additional 546 civilians in the 
city of [REDACTED] were issued Class-C amnestics after reporting 
the broadcast on social networking sites. Additionally, several 


homes located in SCP-1328 that were marked as belonging to the 
"Red Actors Troupe" were demolished. One instance of SCP-039 
was discovered at this location. 


Addendum: On November 2nd, 2016, all subjects affected by 
SCP-1328 began manifesting a delusion that they were citizens of 
the Russian Federation. Amnestic treatments have been unable to 
alter this belief. In addition, most affected subjects appear to be 
displaying signs of cognitive dissonance, with erratic and 
unpredictable behaviors resulting.

SCP-1329: The Aquarium 


Item #: SCP-1329 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: The security perimeter of 
Site-97 is to be monitored by armed patrol and night-vision security 
cameras. No further security is necessary. All SCP-1329-1 activity 
within the grounds of Site-97 or within SCP-1329 is not to be 
interrupted outside of testing protocol. Interaction with SCP-1329-1 
is to follow the procedure outlined in Document 1329-CO. 


Researchers observing within SCP-1329 are to do so with armed 
escort, in the event of dangerous phenomena. 


Description: SCP-1329 is an abandoned aquarium located near 
[REDACTED], Russia, classified as Site-97. No anomalies in 
materials or floor layout are present on the upper two floors. The 
three sub-surface floors vary in size, architecture, and layout 
significantly when compared to any other floors. The building is ina 
state of severe disrepair, though it shows few signs of looting. 
Efforts to re-wire the building’s electrical system are underway. 


SCP-1329-1 is the collective designation for a group of human 
beings which will regularly manifest in or around SCP-1329. 
Subjects are primarily Asian, Caucasian, or Middle-Eastern in 
ethnicity, and will average 25-50 years of age, though individuals as 
young as 5 and as old as 70 have been observed. Subjects speak a 
pidgin language consisting of loanwords from English, Russian, 
Mandarin, Arabic, and various Turkic languages. Subjects show 
signs of overexposure, malnourishment, and symptoms resembling 
mercury poisoning, specifically desquamation (heavy skin- 
shedding), compulsive itching, and nerve damage. Subjects 
generally wear heavily-repaired or modified clothing, commonly 
consisting of or incorporating parts of a pale green jumpsuit or 
scrubs. Armored vests are an uncommon but regular feature, and in 


one instance an atmospheric diving suit was observed. Items carried 
by SCP-1329-1 have included firearms, improvised spears or 
harpoons, compasses and mapmaking equipment, lengths of rope, 
cans of motor oil, plastic jugs containing distilled water, fish stock, 
whale blubber, or algae cultures, and various trinkets containing fish 
bones or preserved skin.
