Both the notary and Allan were being observed 
by a set of closed-circuit cameras that left 
SCP-3204 out of frame. The research team 
observing the test was composed of 14 
members, myself excluded. No team member 
left the chamber for the duration of the test, as 
per procedure. No distress was reported to me 
from the chamber, of either the subjects or the 
team members, and for all intents and 
purposes, the test was completed without 
incident. This test took days to complete. 


On / /20 atapproximately : local time, | 
was notified the test concluded by the 
observation chamber and instructed the D- 
Class retrieval team to gather Allan, the 
notary, and all equipment inside of the 


enclosure. Approximately minutes later, | 
completed the manual shutdown of the 
observation chamber from its external access 
point. When | realized nobody exited within 
minutes, | entered the chamber myself. | 
realize this was against protocol. But | was 
able to confirm it was completely vacated of 
the research team. Subsequent investigations 
of the chamber would also confirm all systems 
were shutdown correctly. 


Approximately minutes after sending in the 
retrieval team, they returned to me empty 
handed and confused. According to them, the 
notary had disappeared and Allan was 
unresponsive, despite being in an on state, 
which was not entirely unexpected. However, 
SCP-3204 in its entirety had also disappeared. 
It should be stressed that the notary was 
[REDACTED]. Interview transcripts with the 
retrieval team have been attached to this file. 


| have thus suspended all future tests 
regarding SCP-3204 until it can either be 
relocated, or whatever happened to it 
becomes understood. I'll also personally make 
sure the O5 Council is made aware of these 
matters, and will recommend SCP-3204's 
object class be changed from Euclid to Keter, 
at least until the Foundation is able to 
recontain it. | have ordered MTF 2-57 to 
remain active at Area- and all containment 
procedures regarding the area will be 
continued, at least regarding the outside of the 
enclosure. This is a containment breach, but | 
think it's best to keep up the appearance of it 
never having happened. 


| don't think anybody could've foreseen this 
outcome. | think it might be best, if we're able 


to find and contain SCP-3204 again, to simply 
seal it away and forget about it. | mean, we 
barely understand the quantum world 
ourselves. Who's to say what the full 
consequences are of any quantum-level 
workings being recreated at the macroscopic 
level? Personally, | think we're lucky we 
haven't inadvertently caused a XK-Class 
scenario with SCP-3204 by now. 


Signed, Dempsey.

Addendum 3204-01: It has been recommended changing 
SCP-3204's object classification to Thaumiel, utilizing it to dispose of 
sapient SCPs that are hostile, uncontrollable, or otherwise deemed 
high-risk threats. However, further testing is still required to 
determine the full extent of SCP-3204's anomalous properties, and 
to what extent the Foundation can safely maneuver in its presence. 
It should also be noted that there is currently no means of removing 
SCP-3204 from Area-_ , which further complicates the matter. While 
this suggestion may be considered at a later date, there is currently 
no plan to change SCP-3204's object class. 


Addendum 3204-UKR: The Foundation became aware of 
SCP-3204's existence during a preliminary investigation of 
SCP-3074 in 1988, when a helicopter carrying Foundation personnel 
en route to Pripyat, Ukraine went down approximately . outside the 
city; it is believed the pilot may have spotted SCP-3204 through the 
foliage. SCP-3204 may account for upto — missing individuals 
following the Chernobyl nuclear disaster on 27 April 1986, including 
evacuees and military personnel. 


Following the discovery and containment of SCP-3204, the 
Foundation has been working with the Ukrainian government in 
diverting human traffic from the area. However, in recent years the 
Chernobyl! Exclusion Zone has been seeing an uptick in various 
cleanup and development efforts. It is possible that efforts to contain 
SCP-3204 at Area- may become increasingly difficult to manage, 
and there are currently no plans to relocate SCP-3204. If SCP-3204 
cannot be safely moved to a new secure site, then its destruction will 
be considered.

1. - , also known as Radioactive Pyrite 
or "RP-20," is a chemical agent that emits -ray radiation. This kind 
of radiation is nonhazardous to living tissue and is used by the 
Foundation to induce false-positives in Geiger counters, dosimeters, 
and other devices designed to detect radiation. RP-20 is nontoxic 
and biodegradable. 


SCP-3205: Adventure Tourist 


Item #: SCP-3205 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3205 is to be secured ina 
locker aboard a Foundation aircraft, currently SC-491, a Gulfstream 
V passenger aircraft based at Site and used for personnel 
transport between facilities. The aircraft should be scheduled to 
make at least two flights per week, preferably to an international 
destination. If the aircraft is unable to complete this requirement, 
SCP-3205 is to be transferred to an aircraft with a similar schedule 
for the duration. A GPS tracking device is affixed to SCP-3205's 
locker to aid retrieval in case of accident. Any vehicle or location 
containing SCP-3205 is to be monitored by video surveillance of the 
interior and exterior and the footage reviewed on a fortnightly basis. 


Staff are prohibited from discussing information with a Level 2 or 
higher security classification in the presence of SCP-3205. No 
documents with a Level 2 or higher security classification are to be 
transported in a vehicle containing SCP-3205, and SCP-3205 is not 
to be brought into facilities with a Level 2 security classification or 
higher. 


All known recordings and images of SCP-3205-3 have been 
archived by the Foundation and media containing SCP-3205-A 
replaced with edited versions without SCP-3205-A where relevant. 
The same procedure has not been deemed necessary for earlier 
iterations of SCP-3205; the records themselves hold no anomalous 
properties and historical records are insufficient for members of the 
public to identify SCP-3205-A as an anomalous entity in these 
settings. 


Description: SCP-3205 is a 50 x 10 x 7 cm steel ingot. Its physical 
properties are identical to that of a non-anomalous steel ingot. The 
following message is etched on its surface. 


Security Breach Incident X23 


Security Breach Incident - X23: On /. / , SCP Site 19 breached 
by operatives from an organization known to the Foundation only as 
‘The Serpent's Hand’. 


Site-19 Breach: The breach of Site-19 seems to have been the 
second of two break ins into SCP properties by , Known to the 
foundation as “L.S.” This individual was responsible for a previous 
security breach, having coordinated the theft of SCP-268. Though 
[DATA EXPUNGED], it is evident from video surveillance that 
SCP-268 was involved in this infiltration. The intruder known as L.S. 
seems to have simply walked into Site-19. 


The intrusion seems to have been for the purpose of using 
SCP-914. Knowledge of the intruder’s use of SCP-914 can only be 
assumed due to the intruders interruption of Dr. during routine 
testing. Dr. seems to have been [DATA EXPUNGED], resulting 
in the intrusion’s only personnel casualty. 


SCP-407 seems to have been deleted from the Foundation's system 
during this time, so it can only be assumed the individuals involved 
are responsible. Whether this means the file has been completely 
destroyed, or possibly in the hands of this rogue group, is unknown. 


A short printed note was found in SCP-914's chamber; this note is 
the only insight the Foundation currently has of the group 
responsible for this incident. [See Document X23-01] 


Document X23-01: 
Dear Sirs of the Foundation 


Behind guns and protocol you hide; desperately chaining 
the ineffable, yourselves stuck within your own self- 
wrought pitiful cages of fear and ignorance. You think 
yourselves the shepherd guarding the flocks of the 


Having a wonderful time. Wish you were here! 
- All my love, C. 


There are no other identifying markings. SCP-3205 may be molten 
and reformed in an identical fashion to ordinary steel. One object 
produced from this steel will become a new iteration of SCP-3205, 
and display the same message. Only one iteration of SCP-3205 has 
been observed to be active at any given time. 


SCP-3205 has probability-altering effects. Iterations of SCP-3205 
have a tendency to be formed into objects which travel large 
distances and are present throughout major historical events. 
SCP-3205 is likely to be able to engineer a situation where this 
occurs if attempts are made to prevent it from doing so, although it is 
not possible to conclusively determine this at this time. 


SCP-3205 is associated with a humanoid entity, designated 
SCP-3205-A. SCP-3205-A is visible in 10 to 20% of photographic or 
video recordings of any iteration of SCP-3205. It has the 
appearance of a Caucasian male of approximately 20 years of age, 
172 cm in height, with brown hair and eyes, and dressed in period- 
appropriate clothing. SCP-3205-A has a consistently cheerful and 
enthusiastic demeanour, even when appearing in dangerous 
situations. SCP-3205-A is invisible and incorporeal, and does not 
appear to affect its surroundings. To date it has not been perceived 
by any individual in its proximity.

Addendum 3205-1: 


On 4/7/2015, SC-491 was commandeered by MTF Epsilon-9 to 
respond to a sighting of SCP-__, as Epsilon-9's assigned transport 
had been rendered inoperable by the ongoing outbreak. Although its 
involvement in an SCP containment procedure would normally 
render SC-491 unsuitable for this purpose, its use was approved by 
Site Director in order to collect experimental data. 


+ Video Log 3205-1 


External Camera 1 


00:00:00 - SC-491 with MTF Epsilon-9 aboard 
takes off from Site .No anomalous activity 
visible. 


01:33:40 - The aircraft lands at [REDACTED] 
Airport, Finland. Epsilon-9 exits the aircraft, 
seeing SCP- approximately 1km away, and 
moves to engage (off camera). 


01:35:22 - An entity dressed in MTF tactical 
gear appears at the aircraft door, assumed to 
be SCP-3205-A. Its face is obscured by a 
ballistic visor but its build is consistent with 
prior SCP-3205-A descriptions. Its uniform is 
missing Foundation personnel identification 
markings and its helmet appears to be several 
sizes too big. SCP-3205-A notices the 
engagement between Epsilon-9 and SCP- _, 
becoming visibly excited. 


01:35:50 - SCP-3205-A jumps to the tarmac 
and takes a black rectangular object out of its 
vest pocket, pointing it in the direction of the 
engagement. It remains in this position for the 
duration, with occasional efforts to change its 
viewpoint slightly or to manipulate the object. 


01:59:18 - Projectile from SCP- lands 20 m 
away from SCP-3205-A, knocking it to the 
ground. 


02:02:30 - SCP-3205-A gets up, appearing 
physically unharmed. Its apparel is dirtied but 
intact, although standard MTF equipment 
would have been expected to be severely 
damaged by such an impact. SCP-3205-A 
briefly acts as if dazed, but then claps its 
hands, laughs and cheers in the direction of 
Epsilon-9. 


02:44:11 - MTF Epsilon-9 subdues SCP- 
and moves to initiate cleanup protocols. 


02:49:33 - SCP-3205-A appears to realise the 
engagement has concluded. It lowers the 
object and begins tapping on it with a stylus.
