Description: SCP-3322 consists of two anomalous locations, 
SCP-3322-A and SCP-3322-B. SCP-3322-A is the town of 
Cameron, Deseado Department, Santa Cruz Province, Argentina, 
and the surrounding area in a 1 km radius from the township limits. 
SCP-3322-B is the town of Buyant (ByaHT), Galshar District, Khentii 
Province, Mongolia, and the surrounding area of identical 
dimensions to SCP-3322-A. SCP-3322-A is located at coordinates 
46° 22' 43" S, 68° 52' 16" W, and SCP-3322-B is located at 
coordinates 46° 22' 43" N, 111° 7' 44" E, making the two towns 
antipodes to one another. 


Both towns have a population of 5,023, a life expectancy of 
approximately 72.5 years and an estimated GDP per capita of 
$8,500. SCP-3322-B is known in the local region as a prosperous 
town, with a large number of brick and wood houses. It has relatively 
few ger! or people living traditional nomadic lifestyles. Residents of 


SCP-3322-A and SCP-3322-B report similar quality of life 
measurements and levels of subjective wellbeing. 


SCP-3322-A and SCP-3322-B have the anomalous property of 
internal causal synchronicity; events and actions that occur in 
SCP-3322-A will occur in SCP-3322-B and vice versa. These are 
appropriate to the local context rather than exact replications. This 
property is flexible; local conditions such as climate may prevent 
synchronous events, as may outside intervention, but an 
approximation will be generated in the corresponding location. 
Events are staggered due to the 11-hour time zone difference. Most 
events occur on the same local date and time, but a time delay of up 
to 12 days has also been observed. Neither location is more likely to 
generate events which precede events in the other. Both towns have 
an identical street and building layout (although with differences in 
architecture), which persists due to the anomaly. 


SCP-3322 also affects the profiles of individuals within its 
boundaries. Each individual within SCP-3322-A has a corresponding 
counterpart within SCP-3322-B, where they possess similar family 
situations, interests, and personality traits, in addition to their 
behaviour. There are currently 5,912 individuals in each location 
affected by SCP-3322 (given designations A/B-1, A/B-2... A/ 
B-5912), not including Operative A/B. 5,023 are permanent 
residents and 889 are seasonal residents or regular visitors such as 
delivery vehicle drivers. Similarities between visitors are only 
apparent in those who have visited SCP-3322 more than once. 


SCP-3322 has no visible effects outside the previously stated 
boundary, and if a matched pair of individuals affected by SCP-3322 
leaves3, their actions will cease to reflect one another.4 However, 
the effects of the anomalous causal relationship do have external 
impacts, as external circumstances occur in a way that maintains 
similar internal events within SCP-3322.5 No practical method for 
reliably predicting external events that affect SCP-3322 has yet 
been developed, and when these events occur they are considered 
non-anomalous. Therefore, the nature of SCP-3322 is formally 
considered to be confined to its boundary, although this definition is 
contested. 


No evidence of any anomalous cognition has been observed within 


SCP-3322. All its inhabitants behave in a manner appropriate to the 
local region, and have no detectable biological or psychological 
abnormalities. When observed in isolation, all events that occur 
within SCP-3322-A or B are consistent with baseline reality, and 
local Hume levels are unremarkable. However, Foundation 
parastatisticians have estimated the likelinood of events in 
SCP-3322-A and B occurring together by chance at less than 10-48 
per annum. 


Addendum 3322-1: Selected events relating to SCP-3322 


Date Description 

27/02/1995 
Construction of a residence within 
SCP-3322 for the use of the 
operative on station is approved 
(prior to this, they were residing 
outside SCP-3322 and making a 
daily commute). An experiment is 
designed where a local building 
firm is contracted with Foundation 
funds to build a residence in 
SCP-3322-A at [REDACTED], 
with no action taken relating to 
SCP-3322-B. On 1/03/1995, B-1 
(Mayor C. Batu) announces he 
will use his personal funds to 
construct a house for the use of 
Operative B (Agent B. Ganbold) 
and his future replacements, with 
the rent being deducted from 
Operative B's local government 
allowance. This appears to be for 
tax minimisation reasons.’ Both 
houses are completed on 
11/11/1995 at matching locations. 


01/08/1996 
A-1568 (Mr O. Vidal), wielding a 
hunting rifle, shoots and kills his 


05/04/2004 


wife, A-1569 (Mrs M. Vidal), 
during a heated argument. 
Operative B (Agent B. Ganbold) is 
informed of these events 2 hours 
later by Operative A (Agent G. 
Martin) and he investigates the 
residence of B-1568 (Mr A. 
Gantulga) and B-1569 (Ms O. 
Bayarmaa). Hearing a 
disturbance, Agent Ganbold 
attempts to force entry, which 
startles B-1568 and causes him to 
discharge a firearm he was 
holding, killing B-1569. Both A- 
and B-1568 are arrested and 
transported to the relevant 
provincial capital for trial. A-1568 
is convicted of murder and 
sentenced to 20 years 
imprisonment, while B-1568 is 
convicted of negligent homicide 
and sentenced to 18 months 
imprisonment.8 


An internal Foundation 
investigation clears Agent 
Ganbold of wrongdoing and 
recommends the current 
procedure of restricting 
communication between staff 
within SCP-3322-A and 
SCP-3322-B, which was not in 
effect at this time. Agent Ganbold 
requests reassignment, but 
receives counselling and decides 
to remain. 


While crossing a street, Operative 
A (Dr G. Richter) is struck by a 


11/07/2005 


van driven by A-5003 (Mr A. 
Acosta).9 Dr Richter suffers a 
serious head injury and requires 
evacuation to Buenos Aires for 
medical treatment. Operative B 
(Dr A. Xangai) is advised to 
remain indoors and await 
extraction, avoiding motor 
vehicles. Shortly before transport 
from OP-1-B arrives, Dr Xangai 
trips and falls down the stairs of 
the SCP-3322-B town hall, also 
suffering a head injury. Dr Xangai 
makes a full recovery over the 
next 12 months, but Dr Richter 
has residual left-sided weakness 
and mild memory loss, 
necessitating his retirement from 
field duties. Dr Xangai is 
reassigned and a new pair of 
observers installed. 


Dr Richter requests to retire from 
active Foundation service and 
reside permanently within 
SCP-3322-A, stating he has 
become accustomed to the 
environment over the last 6 years. 
This request is approved provided 
he surrender his security 
clearance and refrain from 
contacting former colleagues. Dr 
Richter agrees to these conditions 
and takes up residence at 
[REDACTED], receiving the 
designation of A-4702. 


On 15/07/2005, a Dr I. 
Kosyachenko moves into the 


01/12/2005 


corresponding address at 
SCP-3322-B and is given the 
designation of B-4702. B-4702 
also has left-sided weakness and 
mild memory issues, following an 
assault outside a restaurant that 
led to his retirement from a 
teaching position at Novosibirsk 
State University. He holds a PhD 
from Moscow State University in 
history.19 Both A- and B-4702 are 
trilingual, unmarried, childless and 
the youngest of 3 brothers, and 
share interests in American 
colonial history, Thai cuisine and 
jazz music. Notably, B-4702 was 
considered a candidate for 
Foundation employment in the 
1990s, but did not pass pre- 
recruitment evaluations. 


Dr Richter (A-4702) is found to 
have established contact with 
B-4702 over the Internet. He is 
reprimanded for undermining 
containment procedures. It is 
planned to revoke his privilege of 
residence within SCP-3322-A, but 
a proposal from the research 
team for the ongoing study of this 
relationship is approved, and he 
is allowed to remain in place 
provided he submit to electronic 
surveillance and report details of 
his conversations with B-4702 to 
the Foundation. As of 2017, A- 
and B-4702 remain in contact on 
a weekly to monthly basis. Their 
interactions are based on 


12/06/2013 


20/11/2015 


personality compatibility and 
mutual interests, with no noted 
anomalies. 


Operative A (Agent E. Santos) 
and B (Agent V. Navalny) are 
discovered to have been involved 
in an intimate relationship with 
A-491 (Ms C. Herrera) and B-491 
(Ms O. Erdenchimeg) for the 
previous 3 months. Agent Santos 
and Agent Navalny are 
transferred and officially 
reprimanded. Subsequently, 
Agent Navalny escalates the 
decision for review, reporting that 
Agent Santos initiated the 
relationship 2 days before he did 
and his own actions were thus 
conducted under the influence of 
an SCP. An Ethics Committee 
panel denies his appeal by a 2-1 
vote, citing the absence of 
cognitohazardous effects within 
SCP-3322 as the basis for this 
decision. 


Operative B (Dr E. Zhang) 
receives news that her mother 
has died of advanced heart 
failure, and her request for 1 
week of leave to attend the 
funeral is approved.'! For 
research purposes, it is decided 
to leave Operative A (Dr P. 
Molina) on station and observe 
the effects of attempting to 
circumvent SCP-3322's effect for 


this period of time; Foundation 
staff at SCP-3322-B were 
directed not to enter its boundary. 


On 22/11/2015 at 0045 hrs local 
time, SCP-3322-A's perimeter is 
breached by a ANG?2 unit in an 
armoured vehicle, who proceed to 
detain Dr Molina and transport 
her to an unknown location. 
Simultaneously, at 1145 hrs local 
time, Foundation observers at 
SCP-3322-B report the arrival 
from Ulanbataar of a previously 
unknown government official, who 
takes up residence in the house 
assigned to Operative B. After 
deliberation by Site _ staff, an 
operation to apprehend this 
official is conducted on 
23/11/2015 by MTF Epsilon-6. 
She identifies herself as a GOC 
field operative, ‘Captain Polina 
Pavlovna’. While she refuses to 
divulge any other useful 
information, intelligence from 
other sources confirms the ANG 
unit seen at SCP-3322-A was a 
GOC strike team, whose 
operation was planned at least 1 
month in advance. 


Captain Pavlovna is exchanged 
for Dr Molina on 31/12/2015, in 
line with preexisting Foundation- 
GOC arrangements. An 
agreement is reached with the 
GOC where they recognise 
Foundation control over 
SCP-3322 in exchange for 


research data. 


14/12/2016 
A-5422 (Ms B. de la Cruz)13 
announces her intent to travel to 
Mongolia on holiday. Her plans 
involve spending 2 weeks in 
Ulanbataar and the surrounding 
areas, with no initial mention of 
SCP-3322-B. She is placed under 
Foundation surveillance from this 
point and arrives in Ulanbataar on 
20/07/2017.14 On 08/08/2017, 
she begins travelling towards 
SCP-3322-B on a rented 
motorcycle. Although the 
research team initially plans to 
allow her to enter and observe the 
results, this is overruled by Site 
Director Dominguez, due to 
information security issues and 
concerns that this interaction 
could have destabilising effects 
on SCP-3322. A-5422 is 
intercepted and detained by 
Foundation staff (see Interview 
3322-A-5422-1). 


Addendum 3322-2: 
+ Interview transcript 3322-A-5422-1 
Date and time: 08/08/2017, 1533 hrs 
Interviewer: Dr Nambaryn Bayar, SCP-3322 
research team 
Subject: SCP-3322-A-5422 (Ms Beatriz de la 
Cruz) of Buenos Aires, dob 01/02/1996 


Note: The interview was conducted in English, 


closest to the person will attempt to grab and pull them into the 
middle of the crowd. After contact is made for more than ten (10) 
seconds, the person will become a new member of SCP-428. Their 
internal structures will be removed and replaced with the same 
material as the other members. Should the potential victim escape, 
SCP-428 will actively seek them, or another potential victim, out. It 
will attempt to absorb any and all human life within its immediate 
vicinity. When all human life has been absorbed and they have 
become members of the crowd, it will return to its ‘dormant’ state. 


If SCP-428 does not absorb a human being after a maximum of one 
(1) month, it will again actively seek them out. It will do this using a 
variety of different methods. This includes using acquired skills 
previously known by people it has absorbed. It will also use 
psychological tactics to lure people into its grasping distance. See 
Addendum-428-A 


Wounds inflicted upon SCP-428’s crowd heal at an accelerated rate 
and do not hinder movement; SCP-428 has been proven to be 
highly resilient. For instance, a bullet to the leg of a member of the 
crowd will become lodged but will not affect the individual’s 
movement, and beyond the substance seeping through, the hole will 
close up within a few days. However, wounds inflicted upon 
SCP-428’s central mass will cause a great deal of pain to the crowd. 
This will cause the crowd to collapse in apparent agony and 
SCP-428 will retreat from the cause of the injury, using the crowd to 
protect itself. This has since been used to herd SCP-428 back into 
containment. Should a connection between SCP-428 and a member 
of the crowd be severed, it will excrete the substance within it 
through all its natural orifices. A sample is currently being studied 
and the remains have been incinerated. 


Note: SCP-428 has a hive mind. It therefore does not have the 
hindrance of movement that would be expected of a sizable crowd. 
Itis able to move a large distance in a relatively short amount of 
time. It is only limited by the slowest member of the crowd at running 
speed. SCP-428 appears to maintain some of the memories, skills 
and talents of the people it absorbs and is willing to use these skills 
to gain further members. 


Addendum-428-A: On / / , before the current containment 


which A-5422 is conversant in, as no Spanish- 
speaking staff were available on site. 


Dr Bayar: I'm Officer Bayar, Mongolian Police. 
Can we ask you a few questions? 


A-5422: (afraid) What is this? | haven't done 
anything. Do you need my visa? 


Dr Bayar: You can't go this way. There is, ah, 
military business further on. You can go back 
to Ulanbataar when we are finished, but my 
orders are to do this for whoever comes down 
this road. Sorry for the trouble. 


A-5422: (relieved) Okay, | see. What do you 
want to know? 


Dr Bayar: Can you tell me about why you are 
here in Mongolia? 


A-5422: I'm a student from Argentina, ona 
backpacking holiday. 


[EXTRANEOUS CONVERSATION 
REDACTED] 


Dr Bayar: Do you know what is further down 
the road? 


A-5422: No. | don't know about any army 
secrets or anything like that. 


Dr Bayar: So why did you decide to come this 
way? Where were you going? 


A-5422: There was really no reason. (notices 
Dr Bayar appearing sceptical) |, uh, have this 
feeling - have you ever had that feeling, where 
you want to go and do something, go 
somewhere, that other people haven't done? 


Dr Bayar: (laughing) More than you might 
expect. 


A-5422: That's why | came here, just to see 
what would happen. (nervous laughter) | guess 
something did happen. Going somewhere 
without a reason - it makes me feel more free. 
That's all. 


Dr Bayar: Okay, Miss Beatriz. My friend 
outside has a few little things you need to do, 
and then you can go. Enjoy the rest of your 
stay. 


A-5422's statements and behaviour were deemed to be 
consistent with her baseline personality and habits. No 
anomalies were detected on further testing and she was 
released from Foundation custody.
