Any wild specimens of Potrix caprarum sapiens are to be captured 
for further study. 


/ 12014: UAP-5982-1 through UAP-5982-8 were successfully 
terminated during Incident 2636-Aleph-Exarch. The remains are 
currently stored within separate Type-101 Stasis Chambers within 
Site-115. 


/ 12015: SCP-2636a has been terminated. The remains are 
currently stored within a Type-101 Stasis Chambers within Site-115 


+ Original Containment Procedures 


SCP-2636 is to be contained within a Type-05-M 
humanoid containment module within Site-151, with 
soundproofing modifications and extensions to 
accommodate SCP-2636’s size. SCP-2636 is to be 
supplied with one liter of caprine, ovine, porcine, or 
bovine blood per day for sustenance. No other items of 
food or drink are to be provided to SCP-2636. 


All items coming into contact with SCP-2636 are to be 
sterilized upon removal from the containment chamber. 
All personnel entering the containment chamber are to 
wear Level B haz-mat suits. Any individuals found to 
have come in direct physical contact with SCP-2636 or 
any material resultant of its anomalous properties are to 
be quarantined until the extent of infection has been 
determined and treatment has been assigned. 


Description: SCP-2636 is a female bipedal mammal-like reptile of 
an unknown species (henceforth referred to as Potrix caprarum 
sapiens), measuring 3.4 meters in height and 135 kilograms in 
weight. Subject’s skin is smooth and hairless, and is dark red in 
coloration with a pale grey underbelly. SCP-2636’s primary senses 
are sight and hearing: the specimen possesses large eyes and ears, 
with the ears serving the secondary function of removing waste heat 
from the body. All scent organs are effectively vestigial. SCP-2636's 
legs are semi-digitigrade, with three toes and a fleshy foot pad to 
distribute weight, and the hands are four-fingered with one thumb. 
The head and back bear flexible spines measuring 5-20 cm in 
length. 


SCP-2636’s digestive system is specialized for a liquid diet, primarily 
blood, though it is capable of digesting vegetable and fungal matter. 
As such, the mouth structure of SCP-2636 lacks teeth anda 
functioning mandible, instead consisting of a muscular, bone-tipped 
proboscis. Venom sacks are located in the upper thoracic cavity, 
directly below the collarbone. This venom is a powerful hemorrhagic 
toxin, capable of liquefying the internal organs of the prey creature. 
SCP-2636’s respiratory system consists of a series of eight 
sphincters located in the upper chest and back. 


SCP-2636 is believed to be sapient, due to demonstration of self- 
recognition, mathematical ability, and artistic expression. However, 
no successful communication with SCP-2636 beyond simple 
pantomime and pictograms has been accomplished: SCP-2636 is 
incapable of speaking human languages, and has made no progress 
in learning written languages. SCP-2636's native form of 
communication, a series of song-like vocalizations, is not yet 
understood. SCP-2636 is highly sensitive to sound, with continuous 
loud noises (in excess of 100db) triggering hemolacria, otorrhagia, 
and hematidrosis in the subject. Tissue analysis has shown that 
SCP-2636 is highly susceptible to chemical carcinogens and 
pollutants, and possessing of an immune system incapable of 
protecting SCP-2636 against many human-carried diseases. 


SCP-2636’s blood and other body fluids contain a variant of the 
Mycobacterium leprae bacterium, termed Mycobacterium leprae 
potrix. The symptoms of Mycobacterium leprae potrix are both 
accelerated in progression and more severe than those of 
Mycobacterium leprae, and the bacteria have proven resistant to 
leprostatic agents. 


SCP-2636-1 is a pre-Colombian temple complex! located in 
[REDACTED], Mexico. The architecture of SCP-2636-1 does not 
match that of any indigenous peoples in the region: the scale of the 
complex and artistic depictions within indicate that it was 
constructed by SCP-2636’s species. The oldest segments of 
SCP-2636-12 have been dated to approximately 12,000 BCE: the 
most recent constructions? have been dated to approximately 7500 
BCE. 


The central chamber SCP-2636-1 was built with a significant 
knowledge of acoustics. An individual standing on the central dais is 
capable of being heard throughout the central chamber without 
difficulty. Speaking in a raised voice will allow the individual to be 
heard outside SCP-2636-1 by means of structures funneling sound 
through the roof of SCP-2636-1. 


This central chamber of SCP-2636-1 is built above a natural cave 
formation, later expanded by the builders of SCP-2636-1. Chambers 
within the cave were apparently used for storage, residence, and 
internment of the dead. A total of 3409 skulls belonging to Potrix 


caprarum sapiens specimens have been found within the cave 
system, dated between c. 12,000 BCE and c. 2000 CE. Entry to the 
central chamber is made only by passing through two 
antechambers. A one-room stone structure, referred to as the Small 
Temple, is located outside the primary structure. The purpose of this 
structure is unknown. 


SCP-2636-2 is a mass of mummified animal parts bound together 
with hide strips, measuring 4.7 meters in height and weighing 
approximately 500 kilograms. SCP-2636-2 consists primarily of 
bones, organs, and limbs, with six goat heads forming the top of the 
pyramid. The age of SCP-2636-2 is unknown, but the animals used 
in its construction indicate that it was built after European 
settlement. It is unknown how SCP-2636-2 has maintained a state of 
preservation in a tropical environment. 


UAP-5982-1 through UAP-5982-8 are entities outwardly appearing 
to be living specimens of SCP-2636-2, bearing no signs of decay 
and measuring approximately 50 meters in height. It is believed that 
SCP-2636-2 was envisioned as a representative image of these 
entities. UAP-5982 specimens have only been observed during 
Incident 2636-Aleph-Exarch. 


/ 12015: SCP-2636a is a deceased fetal female of the same 
species as SCP-2636. SCP-2636a is genetically identical to 
SCP-2636, indicating that the pregnancy was the result of 
parthenogenesis. Events surrounding the initial generation of 
SCP-2636a are designated as Incident 2636-Aleph-Exarch. 


Addendum-01: Certain carvings and paintings within SCP-2636-1 
have been deemed to provide further context regarding the nature of 
SCP-2636, and have been arranged in presumed chronological 
order, as follows. 


¢ Potrix caprarum sapiens in pastoral scenes. Imagery indicates 
a nocturnal hunter-gatherer lifestyle, with some rudimentary 
form of fungal agriculture.4 

* Potrix caprarum sapiens killed in large numbers by humans.5 
Human figures are portrayed as squat, grotesque figures, with 
exaggerated mouths and disproportionately small eyes. 

¢ Retreat of Potrix caprarum sapiens below ground and into the 


remote jungle. Humans displayed as desecrating Potrix 
caprarum sapiens bodies on the surface. Surviving specimens 
depicted as injured and sickly. 

Construction of SCP-2636-1 and SCP-2636-2 by Potrix 
caprarum sapiens. 

The passing of the lunar cycle, with attendant symbolism to 
indicate repetition. A procession of female Potrix caprarum 
sapiens stands in from of a dormant SCP-2636-2: all female 
specimens are pregnant, and making gestures of supplication 
towards SCP-2636-2. 

SCP-2636 positioned in front of SCP-2636-2, hands folded in 
front of its abdomen. Cutaway view of the abdomen shows 
developing fetus. SCP-2636-2 has extended an arm to touch 
SCP-2636’s abdomen. SCP-2636-2 is depicted with a song- 
halo motif for the first time. This motif is significantly deviated 
from the typical content and style. 

SCP-2636 giving birth to SCP-2636a. Musical motif is a 
combination of symbols from the depictions of both the pre- 
human state, the human conflict, and SCP-2636. This is 
termed the divine motif. 

SCP-2636a presented before SCP-2636-2. SCP-2636-2 is 
once again portrayed with song-halo motif. In addition, 
SCP-2636-2 is portrayed in an unmummified state, and as 
animate. 

SCP-2636a riding SCP-2636-2, driving forth humans, 
surrounded by a crowd of Potrix caprarum sapiens. Divine 
motif shared by all individuals. SCP-2636-1 is airborne. 


Addendum-02: Initial recovery of SCP-2636 occurred between / 

/2013 and / /2014, after an extensive hunt, ending near 
[REDACTED] Arizona. The complexity of traps used against 
recovery agents indicated that SCP-2636 worked with the aid of at 
least one other individual. This individual or individuals have eluded 
follow up searches of the region, and no further activity has been 
noted. 


Incident Report 2636-Aleph-Exarch 


Date: / /2014 


Location: Site-151 (Coordinates - .- .) 


Event Type: LK (Localized Crisis) 
Description: 


At 0222, local time, SCP-2636 enters labor, beginning 
songlike vocalizations that will last the entirety of the 
event. These vocalizations match no patterns observed 
before, and indicate intense pain. 


Vocalizations steadily increase in volume as SCP-2636 
begins exerting force upon the structure of Site-151, 
culminating in an outward explosion of force centered 
around SCP-2636. 


Eight instances of UAP-5982 appear at this time, 
emerging from the ground around Site-151. 


SCP-2636 rises into the air, hovering approximately 25 
meters off the ground. SCP-2636 develops six wing 
appendages.§ At this point, SCP-2636’s vocalizations 
have risen to approximately 140 db, and have been 
joined by similar vocalizations by all eight instances of 
UAP-5982. 


Vocalizations peak and then begin to recede. UAP-5982 
instances each place a hand underneath SCP-2636 and 
lower it back to the ground. UAP-5982-4 shoots 
approaching helicopter containing members of MTF 
Eta-87 out of the air using what appears to be a beam of 
concentrated light, killing all hands. 


Upon returning to the ground, SCP-2636 falls asleep. 
Resultant Anomalies and Damages 


* Liquefaction of 89% of personnel within Site-151. 

* Deafening and blinding of all surviving personnel. 

* Destruction of 79% of Site-151’s primary structure. 
¢ Transmutation of all water within Site-151 into blood 
containing Mycobacterium leprae potrix. 

* Generation of eight incidences of UAP-5982. 


* Generation of SCP-2636a 


Recovery Efforts: Site-151 was retaken by members of 
Local Task Forces 151-He (“Jared Crump’s Hard-Luck 
Club”), 151-Yaw (“Pillar Men”), 151-Qoph (“Heavy Metal 
Queens’), and Mobile Task Force Eta-87 (“Lucky 
Leftovers”), with the assistance of EWU Squad 7. All 
instances of UAP-5982 were terminated by 2030, / 

/2014. Surviving personnel were admitted to intensive 
treatment at Site-04, Site-78, and Site-115. SCP-2636 
and SCP-2636a’s remains were successfully transported 
to Site-115. SCP-2636 was successfully placed in 
isolation and administered Omega-3 amnestics without 
further incident. 


Media coverup efforts and the remote location of the 
incident were sufficient to justify the withholding of 
additional amnestics to the surrounding population 
beyond standard waterborne rations. 


Foundation Casualties: 5 administrative staff, 16 
research staff, 20 security staff, 11 D-Class personnel, 
45 task force personnel. 


Items Lost: SCP- ,SCP- ,SCP- ,E- _ through E- 
, and E- 


Addendum-03: In light of the destructive nature of SCP-2636a, 
preventative termination of SCP-2636a was proposed and passed 
by the Overseer Board, with a vote of 8-5, with approval of the 
Ethics Committee. SCP-2636a was terminated without further 
incident. 


Analysis of the remains of SCP-2636a indicate that the fetus bore 
significant physical deformities, and is estimated to have survived no 
longer than two months after birth. This, combined with 
SCP-2636a’s method of parthenogenic conception, and the 
continued mummified and inanimate state of SCP-2636-2, indicates 
a significant deviation from the events depicted within SCP-2636-1. 
The consequences, if any, of this deviation are unknown at this time. 


telepathically. She could not identify which one at that time, as there 
was no corresponding visible stimuli, but she insists it is the fifty- 
sixth figure - the additional figure not corresponding to an SCP 
object previously stored within ACS-03. 


The figure communicated that it was known, in our language, as 
"Judgment." The Class D personnel initially admitted to its interior 
were found, as Dr. put it, "guilty," and were summarily 
executed by way of utilization of the SCP objects contained within 
the figures. It equated the figures to jail cells, and implied the 
release of SCP- was analogous to early release for good behavior. 
She related that "Judgment" will allow innocent personnel entry to 
the interior of SCP-296, but that it would be responsible for ultimate 
assignment of guilt - or lack of guilt - of the personnel itself. 


Addendum 296-3: Communications between Dr. 's 
research team and "Judgment" have revealed new information 
regarding the figures within SCP-296. They have compiled a list of 
the SCP objects contained within SCP-296's figures - identical to 
ACS-03's original contents - as well as a "map" of the figures and 
their correlating objects. "Judgment" has also supplied a number for 
each figure which he states corresponds to the number of "services" 
it must perform before release. 


It is assumed that the services to which "Judgment" refers are 
executions. As there is no way to know whether the information 
provided is accurate besides expending enough personnel to 
release the concerned object, further testing has been halted 
pending other possible detection methods. 


It is to be noted that SCP- _ 's tally is quite low. All personnel are to 
be reminded that under no circumstances are any personnel with 
suspected criminal behavioral patterns, past or present, to be 
allowed access to SCP-296. Failure to adhere to this directive will 
result in termination for all parties involved. SCP- cannot be 
allowed to be released.

Addendum-04: / /2015 — Further physical study of SCP-2636 
indicates prior pregnancies. 


Footnotes 

1. This structure appears to be unique amongstPotrix caprarum 
sapiens, as no other permanent structures or settlements have been 
discovered, and the species is believed to consist primarily of 
hunter-gatherers. SCP-2636-1 has been considered analogous to 
the human-derived structures at Gébekli Tepe in this regard. 

2. The crypt and main chamber. 

3. Antechamber 2 and the Small Temple. 

4. All depictions ofPotrix caprarum sapiensare characterized by a 
halo or beams emanating from the chest, believed to indicate song. 
Further symbolism will be added to these images to further specify 
the motif. 

5. Humans on horseback were added to this segment several 
thousand years after its original creation 

6. These wings have no physical structure, and appear to be 
projections of light of the same color and luminosity as that given off 
by UAP-5982 specimens.
