Did you know a rotting corpse will attract living 
predators? Is it better to putrefy for a hundred 
generations than to die screaming once? 
Happy Spring birthdays to Harry S., 47,

Item 2798.3.27: Anonymous Flyer Distribution - Karachi, 
Pakistan 

Comments: 37 leaflets written in Urdu, distributed in 
front of homes in the Faroog e Azaam union council of 
Karachi sometime prior to the morning of 27 November 
1968, which came to the attention of local authorities due 
to perceived anti-government content.

SCP-2799: The Navigator 


Item #: SCP-2799 
Object Class: Thaumiel 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2799-1, SCP-2799-2, 
SCP-2799-3, and SCP-2799-4 are contained in separate anomalous 
item storage lockers at four separate Foundation facilities: 
Site-77, Site-59, Site- , and Site- . No personnel under Level 3 
clearance may be made aware of the precise location of more than 
one item. No personnel under Level 4 clearance may be made 
aware of the location of more than two. Access to the complete 
record of SCP-2799's location is restricted to Level 5 personnel. 


+ [ARCHIVED OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES] 


While in operation, SCP-2799's surveillance feed must 
be observed continuously by at least two researchers, 
with one D-class personnel held in confinement within 
2m of the device, rotated monthly. 


In the event of any rapid movement from any SCP-2799 
components, designated Level 4/2799 "Navigators" are 
to access the device and interpret the heading and 
latitudinal information given by SCP-2799-1 and -2. 
SCP-2799-4 may only be operated by a designated 
Level 5/2799 "Skipper", of Psi Index 4.0 or higher. All 
four objects must be within 5 m of one another to acquire 
a new target. Either the project Skipper or Navigators 
shall interview the D-Class subject assigned to 
SCP-2799 for record-keeping purposes. 


As soon as the location is identified, a team consisting of 
no less than two Foundation field agents are to be 
dispatched to the designated area to investigate 
"possible anomalous activity." Additional information may 


be divulged at the discretion of SCP-2799's HMCL 
supervisor. Standard retrieval procedures for anomalous 
item investigation and retrieval remain in effect for any 
new anomalous object discovered through the use of 
SCP-2799. 


Description: SCP-2799 is a set of antique Portuguese nautical 
navigational equipment, including a brass sextant (SCP-2799-1), 
compass (SCP-2799-2), pocket watch (SCP-2799-3), and spyglass 
(SCP-2799-4). All components of SCP-2799 were purchased from 
civilian companies by the Foundation, and displayed no anomalous 
properties when acquired. The items were first imbued with 
anomalous properties at the behest of Foundation Thaumaturgists in 
49, for use in the recovery of theretofore unknown anomalous 
objects for containment and study ("Project Navigator"). During its 
tenure as a reconnaissance device, SCP-2799 was employed to 
recover 126 such items, and has activated a recorded 173 times. 


When activated, SCP-2799 will divulge the location of one 
uncontained anomalous object, person, or event until the anomaly 
has either been neutralized or successfully contained. SCP-2799-1 
will always "sight" Polaris at the given location. SCP-2799-2 will give 
a directional heading from the current location to the location of the 
anomaly. SCP-2799-3 displays the local time at the anomaly's 
location. SCP-2799-4 will give a narrow-angle view of the anomaly 
and its location as a point of reference. Using this information in 
conjunction with Mercator projection maps has a 100% success rate 
in determining the location of anomalous phenomena. 


In addition, one subject closest to SCP-2799 will experience a 
hallucination relevant to the object currently targeted by SCP-2799. 
These hallucinations commonly give some information about the 
target object's properties, location, or origins, and will persist until 
the object is contained. If the subject dies or is otherwise terminated, 
no other personnel will be affected. Testing has shown that the 
hallucinations have provided relevant data in 55% of SCP-2799 
activation events. 


+ [INCIDENT REPORT 2799-963 | 
LEVEL 4/2799 CLEARANCE REQUIRED] 


Foreword: At 3:45 amon // ,SCP-2799 
unexpectedly activated and targeted the researcher 
dormitories of Site-19. Communication with the facility 
confirmed that no anomalous activity outside of SCP 
storage was detected at that time. The following 
interview was completed with D-0991 at 4:30 am by 
Security Officer Bertrand Tomlin, Researcher Robert J. 
Boyd observing. 


Tomlin: It's my understanding that you're 
currently experiencing intense hallucinations. 


D-0991: No one asked me... No one ever 
asks, but they do it anyway, you know? 


Tomlin: ... | think | understand. Can you 
describe the experience for me? 


D-0991: Not one experience. Three 
experiences. All of them... it... [distressed 
vocalization] 


Tomlin: It's okay, take your time... Deep 
breaths. 


D-0991: NO ONE ASKED THEM. They just 
took it. They take it every time. Even when the 
roots run deep... deep deep deep into the 
bedrock, so deep that they crack it and it 
reforms around them. One of... one does all 
the bleeding. All the bleeding for all of them. 
And another one does all the living. And they 
have done. They do all the bleeding and all the 
living... and now. Now one more. And he does 
the dying. 


Tomlin: Who does? Who are they? 


D-0991: Not who. ‘It’. Maintain your 
professionalism. They... MMMM! They're un- 
people! How do you un-person a person? 


Even in death? Even in no death? Especially 
in no death! 


Tomlin: What do you mean ‘in no-death'? 


D-0991: They wait and wait and wait and 
nothing happens. Things get worse and 
nothing happens. Bring her back, but nothing 
happens, even from the top of the pyramid you 
can't pull out the roots. Let him go, do what 
they want, use him like a tool for years and 
nothing happens until he doesn't even have a 
name. Trade faces and places and sexes and 
races but never change your mind. Nothing 
happens. Nothing ever happens. 


Tomlin: | don't think we're getting anything 
useful out of this. Bob, can you turn this 
thing-? 


D-0991: The star that burns three times as 
bright burns forever and ever and ever and 
ever and... you're not asking the right 
questions. 


Tomlin: What's the right question? 


D-0991: Who's chicken, and what's for 
breakfast? 


END OF LOG 


Following this interview, SCP-076-2 breached 
containment at Site-19, killing an unreleased number of 
personnel and wounding _ others. At the time of breach, 
Dr. Jack Bright was transporting object EO-963 by hand, 
and was among the first KIB (killed in breach). 
Approximately days later, D1-113, tasked to clear the 
area of rubble, discovered SCP-963 in the wreckage. 
Please refer to Interview Log 963 for more detail. 
Subsequent interrogation of the acting Navigator 


SCP-328: Alien Disc 


Item #: SCP-328 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-328 is to be kept ina 
secure locker in storage area 328-A. Access for research requires 
Level 3 authorisation and will be permitted in most instances. Due to 
its unclear nature, SCP-328 is not to be allowed into contact with 
any data-reading device with a connection to the internet or the 
Foundation intranet. Electronic devices which have been used to 
study SCP-328 should be clearly labeled "SCP-328 Use Only" and 
stored in storage area 328-A for common use in case of unidentified 
viral properties. A small isolated lab adjunct to storage area 328-A 
(designated 328-B) has been established to this end. 


Description: SCP-328 is a smooth, greenish-yellow disc 
approximately ten (10) cm in diameter and 4 mm thick, weighing just 
over thirteen (13) grams, composed of an unknown crystalline 
organic compound. The bonding pattern of SCP-328 is highly 
organised, in a manner reminiscent of a data storage or retrieval 
device. SCP-328-01 (see below), a data file retrieved from SCP-328, 
seems to confirm this. 


Various analyses of samples of SCP-328 have been inconclusive; 
some known atomic elements have been identified, but none in 
recognised compositional patterns, and not enough to account for 
the mass of the samples used. It is slightly warmer (about 4 degrees 
Celsius) than its surrounding environment, even when subjected to 
extreme temperatures. It is susceptible to kinetic damage, but if 
broken, reforms itself from its largest remaining piece over a period 
of one week to six months, depending on the severity of damage. 
Crystallographic analysis of fragments indicates they possess a 
restructured crystalline form, a scaled-down version of the whole 
item's structure. As the disc regrows the structure re-expands and 
returns to its original form. No changes have been observed in 


confirms that SCP-2799-4 depicted the face of Dr. Bright. 


O5 Note: With the above incident in mind, and 
other, better techniques currently available to 
us, it is the determination of the Overwatch 
Council that Project Navigator be canceled 
immediately. Implementation of Special 
Containment Procedures for all equipment 
associated with the project, as outlined in the 
attached document, is expected by the end of 
this calendar week. 


In a related decision, Dr. Jack Bright will retain 
his status as a Foundation employee, and all 
privileges associated therewith. No Special 
Containment Procedures will be enacted for 
his person. SCP-963 designates the object 
containing his consciousness only, and not the 
consciousness itself. 


Oosle 


Addendum 2799-01: Due to the improved monitoring technologies 
and greater staffing resources now available, the use of mundane 
means to detect anomalous objects no longer requires 
supplementation from Project Navigator. SCP-2799 and all sub- 
designations has been retired, and are no longer in use by the 
Foundation. There are currently no plans to revitalize the project.

Articles 2800-2899 


SCP-2800: Cactusman 


Item #: SCP-2800 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2800 is to be contained in 
a modified standard humanoid containment chamber that features a 
large sun lamp. SCP-2800's hero syndrome and dysthymia are to be 
regularly monitored by psychologists. 


When possible, SCP-2800 is to be given menial tasks where it can 

assist others while under close supervision. It has been deemed by 
staff psychologists that allowing SCP-2800 to assist in these tasks 

has significantly improved its morale and general disposition. 


Regular psychological counseling and monitoring for self harm is 
recommended for SCP-2800. SCP-2800 has also been placed on 
suicide watch. 


Description: SCP-2800 is an anomalous male of Scottish descent, 
formerly known as Daniel MacIntyre, though SCP-2800 refers to 
itself as "Cactusman, the Spiked Menace." SCP-2800 measures 
187 cm and 76 kg, and possesses brown hair and green eyes. 


SCP-2800 possesses an expanded genome that contains DNA from 
the saguaro cactus. SCP-2800 also has many anomalous 
characteristics that are consistent with the natural physical 
properties of the Carnegiea gigantea plant, more commonly known 
as the saguaro cactus. 


SCP-2800 has demonstrated the following anomalous capacities: 


« The anomalous capacity to instantaneously grow 2-3 cm 
spines from all surfaces of its body. The spines fall off 
naturally, though SCP-2800 can also voluntarily detach these 
spines. 


¢ The anomalous capacity to perform crassulacean acid 
metabolism photosynthesis. SCP-2800 can open pores on its 
body to function in a manner similar to stomata. 

¢ The anomalous capacity to use water in a hyper-efficient 
manner. SCP-2800 can subsist on roughly 1/3 the amount of 
water needed for an average male of its height and build. 
SCP-2800 produces roughly 1/5 the urea that a normal human 
of its height, build and diet would normally produce. It is 
currently hypothesized that SCP-2800 is able to store wastes 
such as ammonia in its body, in a manner similar to other 
plants. SCP-2800 is also capable of excreting waste through 
its pores, but describes this process as uncomfortable. 

« The anomalous capacity to tolerate above average 
temperatures and above average aridity. SCP-2800 
possesses an extremely efficient cooling mechanism that 
prevents it from overheating easily. In addition, SCP-2800 has 
demonstrated its ability to prevent its skin from drying out. 

¢ Empathic connections with other members of the Cactaceae 
family. Through testing, it has been demonstrated that 
SCP-2800's metabolic rate increases significantly while it is 
communicating with cacti. Said cacti are noted to increase 
water and nutrient absorption from the soil they are planted in 
while SCP-2800 is communicating with them. SCP-2800 has 
been able to communicate with SCP-3388 without a cell 
phone and SCP-2497 without the standard light code.
