A RAISA investigation into the theft of SCP-2923's secure files 
revealed that Site-11 had been infiltrated by an unknown entity (SCP 
classification pending). Security footage suffered the same 
deterioration previously documented at Dr. Ackles's residence. 
Personnel within Site-11 were questioned, and gave conflicting 
reports of the intruder. Though the entity's physical appearance, 
gender and race varied, it was uniformly reported to be a Level 5 
Researcher by the name of Dr. Kasich. This was confirmed false, as 
no such person is employed at the Foundation. Upgraded security 
measures have subsequently been implemented, and Mobile Task 
Force Xi-1964 (Slugworth's Sizzlers) has been briefed on SCP-2923 
and its potential future production and circulation.

SCP-2924: Drifters 


Item #: SCP-2924 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: Samples of SCP-2924 are to 
be kept in a biosafety level 3 laboratory at Site-201, which has been 
constructed near the Point of Convergence of SCP-2924-1. 
Instances of SCP-2924-1 are to be kept in humanoid containment 
chambers at Site-201 until the SCP-2924 infection has been 
deemed completely eliminated from the instance's body by on-site 
medical staff, after which they are to be given Class-A amnestics 
and returned to their city of origin. MTF Gamma-8, ‘Balloon Men’, 
have been assigned to collect discovered SCP-2924-1 instances, 
monitor former SCP-2924-1 instances, and assess possible 
outbreaks of SCP-2924, including finding the source of SCP-2924, if 
one exists. 


Description: SCP-2924 is an anomalous respiratory infection most 
commonly affecting transients or those otherwise lacking a fixed 
domicile.! SCP-2924 outbreaks occur throughout the continental 
United States in 3-6 month intervals, affecting shelters, public parks, 
and other areas where transients commonly congregate. The source 
of these outbreaks is currently unknown. Individuals infected with 
SCP-2924 (referred to as SCP-2924-1) initially suffer from 
symptoms similar to acute bronchitis, including cough, wheezing, 
and difficulty breathing. Standard medication for similar infections 
does not appear to affect SCP-2924 until after anomalous properties 
have manifested. 


5-7 days after initial infection, SCP-2924-1 instances begin to slowly 
become more buoyant. This appears to be the result of an 
anomalous reduction in density, without attendant decrease in mass 
or increase in volume. Buoyancy increases over 24 hours until 
SCP-2924-1 is neutrally buoyant in the surrounding atmosphere, 
typically floating 10-12m above the ground. SCP-2924-1 will then 


begin to move at a rate of 5km/hr in a set direction parallel to the 
earth, regardless of prevailing winds, unless tethered or otherwise 
physically prevented from moving. Instances of SCP-2924-1 
describe the movement as a light push, or in several instances as "a 
guiding hand on my shoulder." Lost density is regained 10-14 days 
after the onset of anomalous activity, with SCP-2924-1 instances 
returning to the surface without injury. 


Experimentation has shown that SCP-2924-1 all move toward the 
same location in northeastern Nebraska, coordinates 42. , -98. , 
designated the Point of Convergence. If an instance of SCP-2924-1 
reaches the Point of Convergence, it ceases anomalous movement; 
however, no additional anomalies have been noted to occur after 
arrival. Use of ground-penetrating radar at the Point of Convergence 
has not revealed any significant deviations, and excavation beyond 
the maximum depth of the equipment has been deemed an 
unnecessary expenditure of resources. Investigation into the 
historical or cultural significance of this location is ongoing.

higher among such individuals.

SCP-2925: Sphere of Influence 


Item #: SCP-2925 


Object Class: Safe Euclid (Revision first proposed 11/30/12, 
confirmed on 2/4/13; see Incident Log 2925-A and Related 
Documents, and Formal Request for Upgrade) 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2925 is currently 
contained at a dedicated facility for its containment in an airtight, 
reinforced, blast-resistant chamber, appropriate for Epsilon-4 Class 
“Highly Valuable Objects” protection. The chamber is temperature- 
controlled and completely dark to ensure no changes in energy 
within the system of the room. All interactions with SCP-2925 must 
be undertaken with extreme care to ensure no unnecessary 
changes in energy present within the object. 


The facility itself is isolated from other containment sites, due to the 
high value nature of the object, and a prior intelligence leak that 
resulted in the object’s acquisition by hostile agents. Onsite guard 
patrols consist of 6 rotating shifts of guards along with mobile 
security forces on standby in the event of a breach of the facility 
containing SCP-2925. 


As of 11/30/12, no further testing with SCP-2925 is to take place. 


Description: SCP-2925 is a glass sphere, roughly 10 cm in 
diameter and 1 kilogram in mass, that is capable of anomalous 
energy creation and storage. 


SCP-2925 violates the first law of thermodynamics by mimicking any 
changes in energy of its surroundings and storing the change in 
energy within itself. For example, if SCP-2925 were lifted by 3 
meters, resulting in a net gain of 29.4 joules of gravitational potential 
energy for SCP-2925, SCP-2925 is somehow capable of duplicating 
said energy and storing it within the object. Thus, SCP-2925 would 
not only gain 29.4 joules of gravitational energy, but would also store 


29.4 joules of gravitational energy within it. 


Testing has been unable to identify any forms of energy or energy 
transfer that SCP-2925 cannot replicate. SCP-2925 has, to date, 
successfully duplicated the following sources of energy transfer. 


¢ Increasing the surface temperature of SCP-2925 to duplicate 
thermal energy. 

* Moving SCP-2925 in order to duplicate kinetic energy. 

* Increasing the height of SCP-2925 in order to duplicate 

gravitational energy. 

Placing SCP-2925 in a compressed spring in order to 

duplicate elastic energy. 

* Causing sound near SCP-2925 in order to duplicate sonic 
energy 

* Shining light on SCP-2925 in order to duplicate light energy 


Notably, changes that would result in a loss of energy for SCP-2925 
(e.g, lowering it) do not seem to cause a loss of stored energy. It is 
also unknown how exactly SCP-2925 stores the energy it duplicates, 
as well as any limit in how much energy it can store. 


Any structural damage that causes SCP-2925 to fracture, shatter, or 
otherwise expose the interior contents of SCP-2925 immediately 
leads to a violent reaction that results in the release of all energy 
stored in SCP-2925 in the form of an explosion. Given the ability of 
SCP-2925 to easily duplicate energy, the release of SCP-2925’s 
stored energy can cause extensive damage. 


Following the release of all stored energy, SCP-2925 reconstitutes 
itself within 30 minutes of the release of energy at the same site 
where it was sufficiently damaged. 


Given that SCP-2925’s glass structure does not seem to be any 
more shatter-resistant than normal untempered glass, rupturing the 
object does not require much force, since the surface of SCP-2925 
is also quite thin, thus requiring extreme care when handling the 
object. 


SCP-2925 was initially discovered by Foundation agents in 1954 in 
the Russian Far East region. SCP-2925 was dropped on a high 


SCP-348: A Gift from Dad 


Item #: SCP-348 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-348 is to be kept ina 
standard locker at Site-19. Personnel wishing to conduct tests 
involving SCP-348 are to obtain Level 3 or higher authorization, and 
present a detailed list of intended test subjects. 


Description: SCP-348 is a white ceramic bowl patterned with light 
blue flowers, measuring approximately 20 cm in diameter and 9 cm 
high. While no maker's marks are present, the Chinese characters 
for “thinking of you” (48m, “xiang zhe ni”) are etched into the side 
of the bowl. 


When in the presence of an individual afflicted with a minor ailment 
or injury (i.e., mild cough, runny nose, scrapes), SCP-348 will fill with 
soup. While the ingredients present within the soups produced by 
SCP-348 vary, young subjects (individuals between the ages of 4 
and 18) have consistently stated that they enjoyed the meal, 
sometimes stating that it reminds them of their parents’ cooking. 
Subjects will finish the soup found in SCP-348 if allowed. 


Children who eat from SCP-348 several times often express a 
feeling of contentment, stating that though they are eating by 
themselves, they do not feel lonely. 


Addendum SCP-348-1: SCP-348 was acquired shortly after rumors 
of achildlivingin  , apparently possessing remarkable 
recovery abilities came to the Foundation’s attention. Investigation 
revealed that the child in question originally discovered SCP-348 in 
the attic of their house, and had come to rely on it after receiving 
insufficient attention from their parents. The child's parents, both full- 
time workers, refused to comment on their relationship with the 
child. 


altitude bombing drill by Soviet bomber pilots under the cover of 
nuclear weapon testing, though it was in actuality a test of 
SCP-2925’s capabilities. Said drop resulted in the release of the 
equivalent of 13 megatons of TNT, over 370 times the combined 
output of the release of the atomic bombs “Little Boy” and “Fat Man” 
on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and nearly matching the Castle Bravo 
test, the largest nuclear test ever conducted by the United States, 
which released 15 megatons of TNT. Foundation agents recovered 
the object following the test at the center of the blast radius. 


In addition, the governments of the United States and the Russian 
Federation have requested control of SCP-2925 on multiple 
occasions. In particular, the Russian government has made multiple 
demands for the return of SCP-2925, due to the perceived “theft” of 
the object from its predecessor, the Soviet Union. 


All requests are to be denied, by order of the O5 Council. Should 
diplomatic agents make any mention of SCP-2925, Foundation 
assets are not to respond in kind. 


Incident Log 2925-A: On 1/25/10, the Group of Interest known as 
the Chaos Insurgency launched an attack on Site 139 in order to 
acquire several SCP objects. During the raid, 5 researchers and 14 
guards were killed. 10 researchers and 20 guards were also 
wounded in the attack. Chaos Insurgency casualties were estimated 
at over 40 killed and wounded. During the attack, SCP-2925 was 
lost, and presumed stolen by the Insurgency at the time. 


A Foundation assault of an Insurgency base on 11/29/12 resulted in 
the recapture of SCP-2925 along with the original research notes 
concerning SCP-2925. An interrogation of an Insurgency researcher 
included the following exchange. 


Interrogator: Interrogation Specialist Maximilian 
Woodson. 

Captured Asset: Chaos Insurgency Researcher 
Torvalds Bengtsson 


The following took place roughly 2 hours into the 
interrogation session. 


Woodson: So, then on to a different question. 
SCP-2925. The glass sphere. How does it play into 
things? 


Bengtsson: It...was a high priority target in a raid 
several years ago. | think the value is quite obvious. 


Woodson: How were you planning on using it? 
Bengtsson: | cannot say. 


Woodson: You and | both know that’s a lie. Are you 
going to tell me the truth or do | have to ask again? 


Bengtsson: (Pauses) We were planning on filling it with 
energy and using it like a bomb. Fly it over a base, you 
shoot down the plane, the sphere falls, no more base. It 
is a reusable weapon of mass destruction. The use is 
obvious. 


Woodson: So how much energy have you filled that 
thing up with right now? 


Bengtsson: Of that, | could not say. Perhaps it has the 
energy of a hand grenade. It could have enough to blow 
up a house. Or a neighborhood. Or even a city. Maybe it 
simply has the energy of a kitchen toaster. | was not 
privy to such things. 


Further interrogation led to no conclusive answers on how much 
energy is present in SCP-2925. To this date, no attempts to gauge 
how much energy SCP-2925 has stored have succeeded. A formal 
request for upgrade to Euclid status was submitted at this point. 


Related Documents: Documents seized from the Chaos 
Insurgency indicated that the Group of Interest had spent 
considerable resources in order to conduct research into the origin 
of SCP-2925. 


The Insurgency identified the original researcher in charge of 
SCP-2925 as a Dr. Yevgeniy Golovkin, a former GRU-P scientist. 
Dr. Golovkin excavated the object from an Aztec site in central 


Mexico, as well as discovering a previously unknown codex. 
Insurgency personnel interrogated Dr. Golovkin and seized all of his 
research on the object. Relevant portions are compiled here, along 
with other Insurgency documents. 


Dr. Golovkin’s Notes, page 34 


Agents were finally able to recover the codex, which is a 
minor miracle, considering how many of these were 
destroyed. 


The codex confirms my research that the orb is indeed a 
religious piece, and not a weapon, as Dr. Zyuganov 
believed. Interestingly, the codex includes a reprint of the 
image of the supreme deity Tezcatlipoca from the earlier 
discovered Codex Borgia, and it notes that the disc on 
the chest of the deity is in fact, the orb. 


This would suggest that the theory on the orb’s religious 
significance in sacrifices is worth some further 
investigation... 


Insurgency Interrogation of Dr. Golovkin 
(Previous portions redacted for brevity) 


Interrogator: Tell us more about the orb. If it’s nota 
weapon, then what is it? 


Dr. Golovkin: You have heard of Aztec sacrifices? 


Interrogator: Sure, freaky looking priest cuts out 
someone’s beating heart. What’s your point? 


Dr. Golovkin: Sacrifices in all religious ceremonies 
serve the same purpose. Killing a goat or a person is 
intended to be an offering of the energy of the creature 
itself.... The bigger the creature sacrificed, the more 
energy you offer, leading to a bigger response from what 
common people call deities. 


Interrogator: Why does a god care about sacrifices or 
energy? 


Dr. Golovkin: Energy is the basic unit of currency for the 
entire universe...every action requires some form of it, 
and all entities are bound to the requirements of energy 
consumption...even gods. Offering energy is a way of 
currying favor. 


Interrogator: So you’re suggesting that this orb... 


Dr. Golovkin: ...is a sacrificial centerpiece. A bargaining 
chip that makes a man the equal of a god. 


Insurgency Internal Memorandum 
To: VPAR82, SNKE03, ZEJO56, AAAA01 
Subject: Concerning the object known as the “Orb” 


Body: Intelligence recovered from Dr. Golovkin and the 
codex match up with our ongoing research on the object. 
Following 4 weeks of energy collection, researchers 
were able to make contact and sustain a connection to 
trans-dimensional entity Epsilon. Negotiations for an 
exchange are underway, but the lawyer tells me we 
should be able to get the primary target. This deal should 
make both sides veeery happy, to say the least. 


Formal Request for Upgrade: Dr. Sonia Oland submitted the 
following request for upgrade. 


The documents we captured from the Chaos Insurgency, 
along with more intensive research on the subject from 
our own personnel have yielded a few conclusions 
concerning SCP-2925.
