SCP-3055-3 and -7 are performing a scene. 
SCP-3055-6 is eating, and SCP-3055-1, -2, -4, 
and -5 are sleeping. The security guard on 
duty is inside the cell to restock its inventory of 
rations. He is listening to music with 
headphones and is not paying attention to the 
dialogue of the scene. 


SCP-3055-3: [shouting] | need a suggestion! 


The guard does not answer. Two seconds 
pass. 


SCP-3055-7: [shouting] She asked for a 
suggestion, please! 


Another two seconds pass. SCP-3055's scene 
resumes. 


SCP-3055-7: Madame President, | have some 
grave news about the Robo-Anarchists. 


SCP-3055-3: The Robo-Anarchists? They've 
been ravaging America since 2095... 


The remaining inactive members of SCP-3055 
awaken or stop eating and begin speaking in 
unison. For the sake of brevity they will be 
referred to as Troupe in this transcript. 


Troupe: In the void of suggestion comes 
improvisation in its purest form. 


SCP-3055-7: It's Theresa Supercomputer... 
she's hacked the treasury! 


SCP-3055-3: Theresa Supercomputer? | 
thought we had killed her! Beam me to the 
treasury at once! 


Troupe: An arbitrary truth that comes into 
being and leaves as it arrives. In the name of 


Thespis! we serve. 


The guard continues restocking inventory, 
apparently dancing to the beat of his music. 


SCP-3055-7: Later, at the treasury. 


SCP-3055-3: Good God... Theresa 
Supercomputer... she's hacked herself back to 
life! 


SCP-3055-7: Madame President, as your 
Techno-General, | think we need to beam you 
into the secure Electro-Bunker. 


Troupe: Ours is the privileged creation that no 
director but Thespis and no audience but 
Death may see. 


Each member of the troupe emits a beam of 
intense light (>10,000 lumens) directed at the 
security guard. He turns around and removes 
his headphones, but shows no sign of injury or 
distress. 


Troupe: The suggestion is you. 


Each member of the troupe except 
SCP-3055-3 and -7 collapses, unconscious. 
The guard joins the scene. 


Guard: Did someone say Theresa 
Supercomputer? Why, that is me! Madame 
President, your days are numbered!

Notes: The security guard affected by this 
anomaly continues to display the same 
anomalous properties as SCP-3055-1 through 
-7 and has been designated SCP-3055-8. 
Containment procedures have been updated 


to prevent future events such as this one, 
dubbed Suggestion Events. 


Investigation is ongoing the possible existence 
of an anomalous entity referred to as 
"Thespis," or the possible connection between 
SCP-3055 and the real Thespis.

widely considered to be the first actor in Western society 


SCP-3056: Fireflu 


Item #: SCP-3056 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: A sample of SCP-3056 is to be 
kept in a standard bio-hazard containment locker in Site-234. Public 
communication lines are to be monitored for reports of similar 
symptoms to SCP-3056. Civilian witnesses are to be administered 
Class-A amnestics, while infected individuals are to be detained 
indefinitely in a bio-hazard containment chamber located at the 
closest available facility. 


Confirmed outbreaks of SCP-3056 are subject to immediate bio- 
hazard quarantine protocol. An arsenal of thermobaric weapons are 
to be kept in storage at all facilities. Evacuation of civilians is 
prioritized under the cover of terrorist attack. Incendiary burn is to be 
maintained for 65 hours, minimizing possibility of pathogen escape. 


Description: SCP-3056 is an anomalous strain of virus from genus 
Orthomyxovirus,! H7N7. 


Similar to its non-anomalous counterpart, SCP-3056 is capable of 
infecting a wide range of animals, including humans, birds, and most 
mammals. However, its anomalous nature has only been observed 
in humans. Non-human animals infected with the virus show no 
noticeable symptoms even in late stages of infection, due to the 
slight difference in the lytic cycle? of the virus from natural 
apoptosis of lung cells. 


The infected animals will eventually die after SCP-3056 infects more 
than 80% of lung cells. Nevertheless, due to its slow rate of 
infection, ranging from 16 months to 3 years, infected animals are 
more likely to die of different causes. SCP-3056 is capable of 
spreading through the blood, saliva, and vomit of the infected 
animals and has been observed to be capable of surviving for up to 


60 hours without a host. SCP-3056 is resilient towards high 
temperature, and also demonstrates a high survival rate in open air 
and flowing water. 


Human subjects infected with SCP-3056 (designated SCP-3056-1) 
show normal influenza symptoms as well as crystal growth within 
their nasal cavity. Samples collected from the nasal cavity of 
SCP-3056-1 show that the cell membranes are coated with layers of 
struvite.4 In addition, it also modifies the mucous membrane inside 
the lungs of SCP-3056-1 to produce methane. 


Modification of the nasal cavity and pulmonary mucous membrane 
has been observed to start in the first five minutes of infection. This 
process typically finishes within 24 hours of infection, immediately 
starting the methane production process in the lungs. Due to the 
danger methane poses to the body, SCP-3056-1 instances sneeze 
to prevent methane build up; this is done regularly at intervals 
ranging from 30 to 40 minutes. 


When SCP-3056-1 sneezes, the pressure on the nasal cavity 
causes the struvite crystals to produce electric sparks due to their 
piezoelectric nature. The electric sparks ignite the methane gas 
expelled from SCP-3056-1's lungs, causing mild conflagration within 
the mouth and nasal cavity of SCP-3056-1. 


Due to full crystallization of the nasal cavity, SCP-3056-1 instances 
only report mild inconvenience and disabled sense of smell after 
each conflagration, without any observed danger to their health. 


Addendum 3056-1: SCP-3056 was discovered in / /1998, 
following several accounts regarding "fire-breathing humans" in 
[REDACTED], Japan. Several Assessment Team operatives were 
dispatched by the Global Occult Coalition at the same time as the 
Foundation, but fortunately SCP-3056-1 instances could be 
recovered by the Foundation without incident. Infected animals were 
destroyed with the help of Global Occult Coalition operatives.

a French Revolution-era man named Jean-Philippe-Horace- 
Donatien . For approximately thirty-five (85) minutes after 
instantiating, SCP-374-1 is able to see, hear, and speak, and to 
manifest limited forms of enhanced awareness enabling it to provide 
true answers to any questions it is asked. 


Its strategic usefulness is limited by its argumentativeness and its 
antipathy towards the Foundation: since it is convinced that the 
members and employees of the Foundation are evil murderers, it 
may attempt to obfuscate, mislead, or change the subject. 


As the end of its period of activity approaches, SCP-374-1 first loses 
its sight, then its hearing, and eventually becomes inert. 


History: SCP-374 was recovered during a raid on a Marshall, 
Carter, and Dark facility in 19 . Upon first instantiating in Foundation 
custody, SCP-374-1 made the following speech: 


"Ah, my new slavemasters. Here are the rules of my existence. First, 
ask me any questions and | provide true answers. Second, 
[EXPLETIVE] all of you and [EXPLETIVE] all your mothers. You are 
murderous slaveowning tyrants and | [EXPLETIVE] hate you. 
Always remember that." 


Addendum: SCP-374-1 has taken to responding to direct questions 
with true-but-useless statements such as "I don't want to tell you 
that," "| hate you,” and "I hope everyone affiliated with the SCP 
Foundation burns in Hell forever;" its uncooperativeness in these 
cases can be circumvented by simply telling it "that doesn't matter." 


Addendum: Due to its tendency to launch into lengthy philosophical 
digressions about free will, predestination paradoxes, and chaos 
theory, SCP-374-1 is not to be asked questions about the future.

SCP-3057: Fossil Fuels 


Item #: SCP-3057 
Object Class: Keter 


Special Containment Procedures: A small quantity of SCP-3057-1 
is contained on-site. Members of MTF Epsilon-6 ("Oil Slickers") are 
to operate as first-responders in the event of a major oil spill, 
destroying all organisms produced via SCP-3057. 


Description: SCP-3057 is an anomalous phenomenon by which 
crude oil spontaneously transforms into instances of prehistoric 
species (SCP-3057-1 and onward). 


SCP-3057-11 was first observed in the aftermath of the Deepwater 
Horizon explosion2 in 2010. Pol-8A052 (an ex-employee of the 
Manna Charitable Foundation) deployed SCP-3057 in an attempt to 
reverse environmental damage caused by the disaster. It was only 
through extensive Foundation efforts that SCP-3057-1's spread was 
limited to a radius of 0.25 kilometers from the initial point of 
contamination. Since 2010, 4 more instances of SCP-3057 have 
been observed around the world. Whether this is a result of the 
initial contamination remains unknown. 


The Manna Charitable Foundation has disavowed all knowledge of 
SCP-3057, and claims Pol-8A052's employment was terminated 
several weeks before the Deepwater Horizon incident. An ongoing 
investigation is underway to determine whether or not this is true. 


It is suspected, but not confirmed, that SCP-2113 is the result of 
SCP-3057.

Date: 08/11/2013 
Location: Philippines; Estancia, lloilo 


Description: SCP-3057-2; Anomalocaris, a 
Cambrian era meter-long ancestral arthropod 
resembling predatory shrimp. 


Notes: Power Barge 103 (owned by Napocor, 
or National Power Company) experienced 
several leaks as a result of Typhoon Haiyan. 
This resulted in the emergence of several 
hundred instances of SCP-3057-2. 


Over a dozen injuries along the coast have 
been linked to SCP-3057-2, which attacks its 
prey using barbs lining 2 appendages located 
near its mouth. These attacks have been 
blamed on a new species of invasive jellyfish. 
Foundation efforts to destroy all instances of 
SCP-3057-2 are ongoing. 


Date: 09/12/2014 


Location: Bangladesh; Sundarbans, Khulna 
Division 


Description: SCP-3057-3; Meganeura, a 
Carboniferous era dragonfly with a maximum 
wingspan of 0.65 meters. 


Notes: The OT Southern Star 7 collided with a 
cargo vessel, leading to several hundred 
instances of SCP-3057-3. 


Every instance of SCP-3057-3 expired shortly 
after manifesting; recent research suggests 
this is related to SCP-3057-3 having evolved in 
an oxygen-rich environment.4 All SCP-3057-3 


instances have been recovered and destroyed. 


Date: 03/05/2015 


Location: United States of America; 
Pennsylvania, Philadelphia 


Description: SCP-3057-4; Velociraptor, a 
Cretaceous era carnivorous theropod dinosaur 
approximately 2 meters in length and 0.5 
meters high (at the hip). 


Notes: A unit upset in an oil refinery caused 
several vessels in a tank-farm to 
catastrophically rupture. This led to the 
emergence of several dozen instances of 
SCP-3057-4. All instances are believed to 
have fled into the surrounding wetlands.°® 


To date, 11 casualties (9 injuries and 2 
fatalities) have been linked to SCP-3057-4. 
Foundation operatives have provided media 
outlets with a false cover story describing the 
escape of several cassowaries from captivity. 
All efforts to destroy instances of SCP-3057-4 
are to be conducted by MTF Phi-2 ("Clever 
Girls"). 


Date: 28/01/2017 
Location: India; Chennai, Ennore Port 


Description: SCP-3057-5; Megalodon, a 
Cenozoic era shark with a maximum length of 
18 meters.§ 


Notes: The BW Maple collided with Dawn 
Kanchipuram, another oil-tanker. This lead to 
the manifestation of 6 instances of 


SCP-3057-5. 


1 instance of SCP-3057-5 is confirmed as 
destroyed; the remaining 5 instances remain 
unaccounted for. After the loss of Beagle 2's 
crew, all further efforts to destroy instances of 
SCP-3057-5 are now conducted by MTF 
Theta-5 ("The Bigger Boat").

Interviewed: Pol-8A051 
Interviewer: Agent Densworth 


Foreword: Pol-8A051 is an ex-employee of 
the Manna Charitable Foundation, and was 
involved in the Deepwater Horizon incident. 


<Begin Log.> 


Agent Densworth: How did you do this? Was 
it a chemical? 


Pol-8A051: The ‘how’ isn't as important as the 
‘why'. 


Agent Densworth: Alright, I'll bite: Why did 
you decide to turn one ecological disaster into 
a much bigger one? 


Pol-8A051: Really? You think a prehistoric 
algae bloom is worse than dumping five million 
barrels of poison into the ocean? 


Agent Densworth: You can't pull an extinct 
species out of the Proterozoic era, hurl it into 
the modern world, then not expect dire 
consequences. 


Pol-8A051: More dire than the consequences 


of hurling over a billion metric tons of carbon 
dioxide into our atmosphere every year? 


Agent Densworth: For fuck's sake. Are you 
for real? 


Pol-8A051: You're concerned over some 
obsolete organisms popping into existence 
and making life a little more complicated. 
Meanwhile, I'm concerned over how we are 
obliviously committed to a campaign to de- 
terraform the entire fucking planet. Are you for 
real? 


Agent Densworth: I'm not here to argue with 
your bizarro-world Greenpeace bullshit, Al 
Gore. I'm here to find out how you did this. 
And you're not leaving this room until you tell 
me. 


Pol-8A051: In that case, | suspect | will be 
here for quite a while.

SCP-3058: Concavity 


Item #: SCP-3058 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3058 is to be kept in a 
Standard Containment Locker at Site-73. Testing must take place in 
a chamber no larger than 30 m3. Test personnel must be subjected 
to psychological analysis before being allowed access to SCP-3058. 
Subjects suffering from schizophrenia, body-dysmorphic disorder, or 
borderline personality disorder should not be considered for testing. 
The host of an SCP-3058-A instance is not to be allowed to expire 
under any circumstances.
