Since then, all furnishings have disappeared, save standard light 
fixtures and a radiator (pictured above). Note that several of these 
lights' switches have not been discovered, rendering them useless. 
Additionally, the building's topography has been nearly completely 
covered with an estimated , sheets of paper, hereafter 
collectively designated as SCP-211-1. 


Given these facts, SCP-211 itself is in remarkably poor condition. 
Severe mold and grime contamination are threatening to collapse a 


large section of the second floor, and the attempted May 4 
demolition (see Document 211-01) has left a large hole in the south 
wall of the building. 


Recovered sheets of SCP-211-1 may be of various aspect and 
origins: blank, depicting various images, ripped pages from books 
(most often encyclopedias or novels), printouts from the Internet, 
etc. The paper may be of any color; in fact, the above picture is of 
the only hallway in which all sheets are printed on white paper. 
Entire stacks of paper have been discovered in the building's 
basement, whose individual sheets bear little or no relation to each 
other. Their only real identifying characteristic is that individual 
sheets’ edges are unusually sharp, and that should a portion of 
SCP-211-1 be removed, more sheets appear (from unknown origin) 
as replacement. Research is pending, but so far, individually, 
SCP-211-1's constituent parts seem to have little purpose beyond 
[REDACTED: See Addendum 211-01] and defense. 


Document 211-01 


SCP Status for SCP-211 was established after the 
building was condemned and scheduled for demolition 
on 4 May 2_, when the building “attacked” the team 
(hereafter labeled Incident Zero). The following is an 
interview ofE R , one of four survivors, conducted 
by Dr. Spinoza. 


<Begin Log> 
Dr. Spinoza: Please state your name and occupation. 


Interviewee:E R , employed at 
Construction. Well, former employee. Can't exactly do 
my job with one crippled leg, now can |? 


Dr. Spinoza: My sympathies. Please discuss the events 
involving the attempted destruction of [DATA 
EXPUNGED]. 


R : Well, we - Construction, that is - were 
commissioned to destroy that thing, so we set about 
finding the best way to do it. We pretty much ruled out 


undermining for some reason. Something to do [DATA 
EXPUNGED]. Main thing is management decides to just 
use a couple of bulldozers to level the thing. 


Dr. Spinoza: Was there any action on the part of the 
building before you attempted demolition? 


R : Not really. We went in there, after all, making 
tests and all that. Found the mold, joked about all that 
paper all over the place. Only thing that really happened 
before we started was...yeah, when we were in the 
basement and someone else, | forget who, started 
ripping pages from the wall, just t'check how bad the 
mold was. Big stack of the stuff suddenly drops from the 
ceiling, outta nowhere, on top of the guy, and he gets a 
nice bunch of paper cuts. Thing that got us, though? His 
gear was all cut up as all hell. | mean, clothing, hat, 
glasses, what have you. All nicked up, had a big damn 
gouge in his glasses. Damn good thing he was wearing 
those glasses, | tell you. 


Dr. Spinoza: And then? 


R : Well, we didn't like being in a big house of 
knives, you know, so we got him out of there. Other than 
that, besides, well, you know, and nothing else 
happened. 


Dr. Spinoza: And on May 4? 


R : Well, we had everything set up, and started 
driving a pair of bulldozers toward the house, when all of 
a sudden all that paper on that one wall - outside, right? - 
well, it all just falls off by itself. Now, | should tell you, that 
day there wasn't a breeze in the air at all, so we thought 
that, well, the building's destroyin' itself and stuff, and we 
decide to help it along, and all of a sudden there's a big 
rumble - one you can hear over the bulldozers! - and all 
that paper flies into the air by itself and tears up 
everything in sight!

Document 211-02 


Subsequent to Incident Zero, testing was taken to 
determine the responsiveness of SCP-211. D-Class 
Personnel were issued a video camera and ordered to 
interact with SCP-211 in various ways. 


Video Log 1 

Subject: D-19905 ordered to approach and explore 
SCP-211. 

Result: No response. D-19905 interacted with 
SCP-211-1 without threat. Building map of first floor 
made with camera footage. 


Video Log 2 

Subject: D-19905 ordered to approach and extract a 
sheet of SCP-211-1. 

Result: No response. Page appears to be [REDACTED]. 


Video Log 3 

Subject: D-19905 ordered to approach and extract a pile 
of SCP-211-1 near SCP-211's entrance. 

Result: Before extracting the target, D-19905 hesitates 
and examines a large poster on the wall near it. When 
questioned, D-19905 remarks that it's a painting that he 
made while incarcerated at [REDACTED], and proceeds 
to pick it up without incident. 


When D-19905 picks up the target, a pile of SCP-211-1 
falls over, landing on him. D-19905 emerges, suffering 
lacerations to arms, legs, and face, but manages to 
extract the collection from SCP-211. 


Video Log 4 

Subject: D-19905 ordered to approach SCP-211 and 
explore second floor. 

Result: D-19905 enters building via Incident Zero hole 


without incident. Upon entering contaminated area, 
D-19905 steps on a weakened part of the floor, which 
collapses. D-19905 exits building with a broken leg, 
[REDACTED]. 

Well, at least we know we can destroy it if we need to. - 
Dr. Spinoza 


Video Log 5 

Subject: D- 21938 issued a pack of matches and 
ordered to light a sheet of SCP-211-1 within SCP-211 on 
fire. 

Result: [DATA EXPUNGED]. Remains removed from 
door, but main entrance to SCP-211 is now blocked, 
leaving the Incident Zero hole as the only entrance. 

Let's not try that one again, all right? | mean, eurgh. -Dr. 
Spinoza 


Addendum 211-01 

Since collection of SCP-211-1 has begun, several specific books 
have become identified as their origin. Examples of these are as 
follows: 


* A19 copy of Hitler's Mein Kampf, found in Public 
Library. 

¢ A Java Data Structures Book, printed in 19 , discovered ina 

used book store near Site-17. 

[REDACTED], currently stored in the United States Library of 

Congress. 

¢ Three printouts of Japanese broadcasts decoded during the 
MAGIC Cryptanalysis Project in World War Il. 

¢ The drawing in Document-211-02. 

* etc. 


No documents re: the Foundation have been discovered as of yet; 
however, security has been increased as a mild informational 
security threat. 


Addendum 211-02 

Recent unexplained phenomena regarding SCP-211 have provoked 
further study. On 28 March __, three individual sheets of SCP-211-1 
were found in SCP-211's “entrance.” Examination of these sheets 


proved to be Foundation Protocol memoranda addressed to Dr. 
Spinoza, the interviewer of the previously mentionedE R 
Upon questioning, Spinoza (who had been at Site-17 re: another 
project) noted that the notices had disappeared soon after he 
received them, adding that [DATA EXPUNGED]. 


Since this date, there have been other data security breaches 
involving SCP-211-1, several of which involve SCP-211 as subject 
material. Upgrade to Euclid status pending.

SCP-212: The Improver 


Item #: SCP-212 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: Use of SCP-212 must be 
cleared by the current containment site’s chief medical officer. Any 
subjects undergoing operation by SCP-212 must submit to full 
physical and psychological testing both before and after exposure. 
Resistance to testing will result in termination of subject. 


All personnel are to keep at least 1.5 m (5 ft) from SCP-212 when 
not in operation. Armed personnel are authorized to use whatever 
force deemed necessary to prevent unauthorized exposure. Should 
any personnel accidentally become exposed to SCP-212, full 
quarantine, testing, and judicial review will be initiated as soon as 
the subject is released by SCP-212. 


Description: SCP-212 is a large medical device, with three large 
robotic arms. The arms have an extremely diverse array of 
attachments, but no storage area or power source has yet been 
found. Attachments slide into and out of the arms as needed, with 
over five hundred different attachments documented. SCP-212 is 
made of plastic, steel, and other common materials. In-depth 
analysis is pending, as any attempt by mechanical means causes 
violent action from SCP-212, and attempts by any biological means 
normally results with subject's “improvement”. 


When exposed to living tissue, the “arms” of SCP-212 will rapidly 
move to grab and restrain it. SCP-212 will then begin to “improve” 
said tissue. This process is extremely fast, but SCP-212 does not 
inject any anesthetic, or replace any blood lost. The process has 
been described as “excruciatingly painful’, and can result in the 
death of the subject at a rate of 47%. Wounds made by SCP-212 
are closed with standard surgical sutures and a chemical “sealant” 
that is not yet fully understood. 


Improvements that have been observed include: lining of joints with 
graphite, replacement of biological organs with artificial ones, 
addition of metal plates to bones, addition of new or duplicate 
organs, and replacement of teeth with small serrated steel bands, 
among many others. SCP-212 has been shown to be able to totally 
“re-configure” an organism. The “improvements” appear to be 
random, and can sometimes be detrimental or fatal, as illustrated by 
one subject's complete loss of bone marrow and its replacement by 
a gel that is still under study. 


Subjects wishing to undergo exposure from SCP-212 are to be 
advised that the process is extremely invasive, and that no 
predictions on “improvements” can be made.

SCP-212 Upgrade Log 


Record of exposure to SCP-212 


Attention: Any and all exposure to SCP-212 is to be recorded and 
logged. Unreported exposure to SCP-212 will be met with 
termination. All subjects willingly exposed to SCP-212 must have O5 
Command approvals, as well as that of site medical staff. 


Subject: 

Agent : 28 years old, 64 kg, 183cm tall, African-American 
descent. Submitted request on - -_ , approval granted and 
exposedon - - 


Description of Upgrades: 

Lower jaw bone replaced by super-dense ceramic jaw, teeth 
replaced with blades made of the same material. Spine removed 
and replaced with synthetic polymer. Replacement spine grafted to 
base of skull. Rib cage and pelvis coated with thin layer of ceramic. 
Lungs, eyes, and liver removed and replaced after “cleaning.” 


Subject Status: Active duty. 


Notes: SCP-212 will appear to “clean” some organs or tissues. It will 
run several “attachments” over the tissue, each of which will spray, 
scan, cut, or otherwise interact with the tissue before replacing it. 
When tested, these “cleaned” tissues appear totally free of genetic 
defects, and appear younger than the surrounding tissues. 


Subject: 
Dr. :42 year old, 62kgs, 170 cm, Caucasian (British) descent. 
Submitted request on - -  , approval granted and exposedon - - 


Description of Upgrades: 


Teeth replaced with super-dense ceramic. Feet amputated at the 
ankle, replaced by a thin plastic latticework, with several pads on the 
bottom. These pads are capable of sticking to any solid surface, and 
can carry up to 225kg. Bone marrow removed and replaced with a 
blue gel. Heart, eyes, liver, and kidneys removed and “cleaned.” 
Several metal devices inserted into the brain, for unknown purpose. 


Subject Status: Subject died during the removal of bone marrow. 
“Footpads” removed, and are currently under study. 


Subject: 
"Agent A.A.": [PERSONAL DATA REDACTED]. Suffered severe 
injuries on - - resulting in traumatic amputation of all four limbs 


and removal of spleen, left kidney, right lung, and left eye. Cranial 
trauma caused by shard of circuitry piercing skull and entering left 
frontal lobe of brain. Submitted request on - -_ , approval granted 
and exposedon - - 


Description of Upgrades: 

Contrary to expectations, SCP-212 did not remove the shard of 
metal from subject's brain, instead spending approximately seven 
(7) minutes analyzing the circuitry with a variety of lenses, probes, 
and sensors before apparently determining that the foreign body 
could be left in place. SCP-212 then proceeded to integrate said 
circuitry into subject's frontal lobe more fully, utilizing tracery made 
of room-temperature superconductors. SCP-212 ended by 
administering an unknown chemical that immediately placed the 
subject in a coma, then shut itself down. No attempts were made to 
replace severed limbs or repair damage to bodily organs, aside from 
normal “cleaning.” 


Subject Status: As of - -_, subject remains in a chemically 
induced coma, in stable condition. Foreign circuitry in brain appears 
to be spreading at a geometric rate. Estimate complete replacement 
of biological brain tissue in [DATA EXPUNGED]. 


Subject: 
Agent : 34 years old, 112kgs, 176cm, Caucasian (German) 
descent. Submitted request on - -_ , approval granted and 


exposedon - - 


Description of Upgrades: 

Removal of stomach, intestines (large and small), liver and kidneys. 
Organs replaced with two “sacks” of synthetic tissues, attached to 
the esophagus. Esophagus lined with the same tissue. “Sacks” 
produce an acid capable of breaking down steel, and transfer all 
nutrition directly to the blood stream. This process produces no 
waste, and any indigestible matter is expelled up the esophagus and 
out the mouth. Eyes replaced with optic sensor pads capable of 
seeing visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light spectrum. Hands 
removed at the wrist and each replaced with eight metallic 
“tentacles,” each measuring 3.8 cm long. 


Subject Status: Medical leave until - - , to allow adjustment to 
new internal structures. 


Subject: 

D- , 23 years old, 62kg, 178cm, Caucasian (American) descent. 
Previously exposed to SCP-217 and decontaminated once the virus 
had run its course (full mechanical conversion achieved). Approval 
for testing granted on - - 


Description of Upgrades: 
[DATA EXPUNGED] 


Subject Status: Subject escaped containment, overpowering two 
armed personnel and effortlessly bypassing several security 
measures. Subject recaptured after 2 hours, having caused 
casualties and injuries, as well as deactivating [DATA 
EXPUNGED]. Once recaptured, subject requested SCP 
classification (presumably in an attempt to avoid termination). 
Request was denied, and subject was dismantled. Components 
were incinerated following examination and documentation (see file 
[REDACTED)). 


Subject: 
Agent: 25 years old, 93kg, 188 cm, African-American descent.
