The staff cafeteria seems to be the least damaged room 
in the building, where a salad table had been prepared. 
The cutlery and dishes, food, and the table are affixed to 
the ceiling. Glasses and drinks are broken and spilled 
over the floor. All objects on the ceiling emit trace 
gamma radiation. 


The front door — made of glass — appears to have been 


deformed during structural shocks such that it became 
impossible to open. An approx. 30cm x 50cm hole in the 
door has been made by an object thrown from the inside, 
as evidenced by broken glass pieces scattered outside. 
Pieces of clothing, tissue, and blood trailing upwards 
from the hole indicate that someone attempted to leave 
the already partially destroyed building through it. 


No survivors have been found. persons were detected 
in Earth's upper stratosphere gradually accelerating 
away from the planet, accounting for 86% of the 
attending club members and staff. The only creature, 
living or otherwise, recovered from the incident site was 
a dog that had been tied outside the front door, identified 
as belonging to a regular at the club. It was kept earth- 
bound, and was eventually strangled, by its leash.

SCP-1704: Finished Business 


Item #: SCP-1704 
Object Class: Euclid-numen 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1704 is to be kept in a 
15m x 15m x 6m, humidity-controlled containment chamber at Site 
23's Large Object Wing. All disappearances and remanifestations of 
SCP-1704 must be recorded, as well as all interactions between 
personnel and SCP-1704-1. Experimentation with or interaction with 
SCP-1704 requires permission from Dr. Galluzzo. Additionally, 
personnel requesting access to SCP-1704 for work related to 
Project Orpheus-30 must report directly to Liaison Barrett and Site 
Director Eriksson. 


Ear protection is to be made available to personnel assigned to 
SCP-1704. 


Description: SCP-1704 is an approximately 9m x 5.5m x 3.5m 
structure composed of animate, fully conscious human skeletons 
(hereby SCP-1704-1). The structure disappears and remanifests! at 
irregular intervals; each time, the identity, arrangement, and exact 
number of SCP-1704-1 change. 


Approximately 240 (+ 30) fully intact skeletons compose the bulk of 
SCP-1704, the remainder being bones and bone fragments, along 
with a cementing material composed primarily of bone dust that 
holds the structure's shape. Instances of SCP-1704-1 have limited 
mobility and, provided that their jawbones are intact, vocal 
communication,2 despite the lack of any muscles or organs that 
would be necessary for these activities. Separation of any section of 
SCP-1704 from the main mass has resulted in the cessation of all 
anomalous activity from the removed material, including 
demanifestation. 


All instances of SCP-1704-1 are capable of communication in at 


least one language, and those interviewed have been able to 
provide identities and personal information consistent with a person 
who has died within the past sixty years. Further commonalities 
between all interviewed members of SCP-1704-1 have been 
identified: 


¢ The subject was sixty-eight years of age or older at time of 
death. 

¢ The subject was a practicing member of an organized religion 

for at least thirty years and at the subject's time of death. 

The subject had no history of drug abuse, sexual activity, or 

violence outside of what they believed to be the prescribed 

limits of their chosen religion. 

The subject and their immediate family had no outstanding 

debts or obligations that were expected to cause significant 

financial distress at the time of the subject's death. 

The subject died of natural causes that were not attributable to 

environmental factors. 

At time of death, the subject felt contented with their life, had 

close relationships with all members of its extended family, 

and considered themselves ready to die. 


Instances of SCP-1704-1 claim to recall events after their death and 
prior to incorporation into SCP-1704. While the exact imagery and 
sequence of events varies between subjects, all accounts involve 
the subject approaching a state which approximated their belief in 
the afterlife before being denied access by a hostile entity.3 This is 
frequently depicted as an act of envy or revenge. Subjects have 
identical recollections of being turned into a skeletal state and being 
deposited in and connected to SCP-1704 while inside an apparently 
featureless area. Those that have been interviewed on multiple 
occasions report returning to this area during times which SCP-1704 
has demanifested, where other portions of SCP-1704 will be 
replaced or reorganized. 


Typically, instances of SCP-1704-1 express feelings of 
hopelessness, confusion, and doubt, and are often reluctant to 
communicate with Foundation personnel or other SCP-1704-1. 
Subjects will often obsess over the details of their life, frequently 
questioning whether some unidentified "unfinished business" was 


responsible for their incorporation into SCP-1704. 


Members of SCP-1704-1 uniformly report intense physical pain and 
discomfort resulting from a combination of high sensitivity to 
atmospheric conditions (particularly humidity and temperature), 
highly limited mobility, and the weight of the rest of SCP-1704. Due 
to this and the aforementioned psychological stress experienced by 
SCP-1704-1, distressed vocalizations are considered normal 
behavior. 


Personnel with Clearance 4-1704 or higher (including those working 
on Project Orpheus-30) should consult Drs. Sanmugasunderam and 
O'Cruadhlaoich for theories regarding the exact nature and origin of 
SCP-1704. 


Addendum: SCP-1704 was recovered from a Global Occult 
Coalition facility in Karlsruhe, Germany, in December 2012, along 
with three other items later given Special Containment Procedures 
and fourteen classified as Anomalous.4 The Foundation was alerted 
to an XN-class Interdimensional Breach scenario in progress and 
provided relevant expertise (see Document 792-1704 for details), 
along with thirty-six Class D personnel. It was determined that 
extraction of a number of items (including SCP-1704) from the 
breach was necessary for full containment. 


Addendum: Three instances of SCP-1704-1 have claimed identities 
consistent with persons who were listed as missing since the 
recovery of SCP-1704. Review of relevant GOC documents shows 
that these disappearances are consistent with the known activities 
and abilities of KTE-4821-Grey-Light (see Joint SCP-GOC File 
4-261). In light of this, research regarding KTE-4821-Grey-Light has 
been incorporated into Project Orpheus-30, and SCP-1704's 
documentation is slated for additional updates. 


Footnotes 

1. That is to say, it ceases to exist in this reality and later resumes 
its existence. 

2. Instances of SCP-1704-1 communicate with voices appropriate 
for their stated identity. 

3. This entity has never been identified by the subjects — physical 
descriptions vary, but rarely correlate with any real, fictional, or 


mythological entity with which the subject is familiar. 
4. See documentation on Project Orpheus-30 and Joint SCP-GOC 
File 4-261 for further information.

SCP-1705: A Collection of Bones 


Item #: SCP-1705 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-1705 and 
SCP-1705-A are to be kept in Containment Lockers #115 through 
#246 at Site 23. Assembly of and direct contact with SCP-1705 and 
SCP-1705-B is restricted to D-Class personnel and must be 
presided over by two Level 3 personnel at all times. All instances of 
SCP-1705-A are to be photographed and filed appropriately in 
Cabinet #533 of the Records Room of Site 23. Personnel are to 
refer to the photographs of SCP-1705-A for reference in testing 
rather than the tablets themselves if possible. 


Description: SCP-1705 is a collection of 2,507 bones of various 
origin and composition. Many instances of SCP-1705 are identical in 
shape and size. All instances have been physically altered with 
notches and protrusions for the apparent purpose of accommodating 
separate instances of SCP-1705. 


These bones can be assembled in a variety of ways by following 
diagramming that is etched onto instances of SCP-1705-A. When 
assembled according to the diagrams, SCP-1705 instances will 
begin to rapidly produce tissues that act to create usable tools, 
machines, and inventions, forming an instance of SCP-1705-B.1 
Foundation-produced materials attempting to imitate SCP-1705 
have had no effect when assembled in a manner consistent with 
instances of SCP-1705. 


SCP-1705-A is a series of stone tablets diagramming pictorial 
instructions on assembling SCP-1705. The tablets depict instances 
of SCP-1705 of particular shape, without marks that could be used 
to identify a specific bone; as such, any instance of SCP-1705 
matching the depiction can be substituted into the design. There are 
currently 142 1072 instances of SCP-1705-A contained by the 


Foundation. Instances of SCP-1705-A are not inherently anomalous. 


SCP-1705-B-001 through SCP-1705-B-142 refer to the constructs 
created by assembling SCP-1705 instances correctly according to 
an SCP-1705-A instance. All instances are composed of tissues 
normally found in terrestrial fauna.$ All modifications done to an 
instance of SCP-1705-B constructed using a specific subset of 
SCP-1705 appear to remain over time and do not change after 
repeated disassemblies and reconstruction. Such examples of this 
include damage to an iteration of SCP-1705, graffiti, and bodily 
fluids. 


SCP-1705 and SCP-1705-A were recovered on 14/06/2000 at at 
39.7 N.11.5 Eby Mobile Task Force Sigma-5 (aka 
"Sinkronized Swimmers") in the Mediterranean Sea. All objects were 
found on the seabed, with approximately 350 instances of 
SCP-1705 and 250 instances of SCP-1705-A deemed unusable or 
illegible. Ruins resembling structures similar to those of the first 
century Roman Empire were prevalent at the site of recovery, but 
deemed irretrievable. Among the debris found at the location were 
numerous excerpts of writing in a currently unknown language. 
Foundation linguistics experts are currently working on translation. 
The Foundation currently speculates that an ancient civilization 
originally native to the area of discovery constructed and utilized all 
known instances of SCP-1705. 


Test Log-1705-Upsilon: The following is a amended testing log of 
the various forms of SCP-1705-B constructed by following the 
diagramming on SCP-1705-A instances. 


SCP-1705-B Apparent Functiot Researcher Notes 
of Resuits 
SCP-1705-B-054 Fountain The anomaly 
produces a currently 
unknown liquid 
continually at a rate of 
4L per minute, which 
is collected in a basin 
that is able to hold 
approximately 12L of 
liquid at a time. The 


Unknown Incendiary 
device 


SCP-1705-B-071 


liquid has been 
revealed to be highly 
addictive and toxic. 
Given the apparent 
superficial similarities 
of SCP-1705-B-071 
through SCP-1705- 
B-088, testing will be 
done to discover the 
function of all three. 
SCP-1705-071 has 
been determined to be 
an incendiary 
explosive. Due to the 
greater proportion of 
the materials of these 
instances in 
comparison to the 
remainder of 
SCP-1705, the 
Foundation has 
deduced that 
SCP-1705-B-071 
through SCP-1705- 
B-088 were originally 
designed to be easy to 
make and readily 
replaceable. 
SCP-1705-B-071 is 
activated by noises 
louder than 90 dB. 
When exposed to 
such conditions, 
SCP-1705-B-071 
ignites for 
approximately 7 
seconds, then 
explodes, often 
destroying its 
composite materials in 


the process. Usage of 
an instance 
SCP-1705-B-071 
typically damages the 
instances of 
SCP-1705 that 
comprise, rendering 
those bones and that 
instance of SCP-1705- 
B-077 unusable. 
SCP-1705-B-090 Communications SCP-1705-B-090 
Device appears to be 
constructed in a way 
that mimics a 
humanoid CNS. The 
device is 
approximately 1m by 
0.5 m by 1.75 m. 
Attached to 
SCP-1705-B-090 is an 
input device anda 
module for housing 
recorded media. The 
front of the device 
itself houses a screen, 
which is assumed to 
project the media onto 
the screen; however, 
at the time of writing, 
no currently viewable 
media is available for 
the device. Multiple 
instances of 
SCP-1705-B-090 are 
able to communicate 
between each other. 
The anomaly appears 
to be a spherical 
object with roughly 
circular openings and 


SCP-1705-B-099 Sedative 


a slow-burning fuse 
approximately 0.5m 
long made out of 
lipids. The testing of 
the interior has 
revealed marijuana 
resin coating the 
interior of the 


construct. 
SCP-1705-B-121 Unknown See Tesi All objects appear to 
through SCP-1705; Log-1705-Chi be too large to 
B-142 construct within the 


confines of Site 53 at 
the time. Research is 
postponed on these 
instances until a 
suitable location is 
decided on. 


Test Log-1705-Chi: A suitable location was found to be appropriate 
for the apparent size for testing SCP-1705-B-121 through 
SCP-1705-B-142 at Area 14.

SCP-1705-B-121 Temple SCP-1705-B-121 
appears to be a place 
for religious 


observation. It can be 
speculated that the 
idolistic figures 
depicted near the 
entrance of the 
construct are what this 
civilization 
worshipped. 
Furthermore, the 
structure appears to 
have been desecrated

All instances of 
SCP-1705-B-122 
through SCP-1705- 
B-142 appear to be 
housing units for the 
SCP-1705 civilization. 
Each building is 
equipped with an 
instance of SCP-1705- 
B-054 in some way, 
often attached to 
receptacles that store 
any overflow. 
Instances of 
SCP-1705-B-090 have 
been found in the 
majority of the homes 
with accompanying 
media. When shown 
through the screen of 
SCP-1705-B-090, the 
media depict subjects 
adorned with attire 
similar to that of the 
ancient Roman 
Empire during the first 
century engaging in 
various displays of 
power4. 


Addendum-1705-Psi: On 04/06/2001, during a secondary 


exploration of the seabed where SCP-1705 was originally 
discovered, Foundation agents recovered two additional instances 
of SCP-1705-A and proceeded to assemble SCP-1705 instances in 
accordance with the diagrams.
