quickly spread out to cover the 
entirety of Crater Lake and the 
Irrounding forest. 
Unclear humanoid figures were 
observed by ASCI personnel. The 
exact appearance of these figures 
could not be discerned, but were 
described as having obvious 
differences from anatomically 
rect humans.° 
After observing the immediate 
anomalous change in weather 
patterns surrounding Crater Lake, 
ASCI personnel requested 
permission to return SCP-3310 to 
the waters of Crater Lake. 
Permission was granted thirty 
minutes later, and SCP-3310 was 
placed back into Crater Lake. As 
soon as SCP-3310 assumed an 
upright floating position, the fog 
began to recede back to Wizard 
~~ and. 


SCP-3310 was removed from 
Crater Lake by the ASCI in order 
to redocument the anomalous 
properties, and form a 
mntainment strategy. 
Storm clouds manifested above 
Crater Lake, and precipitated an 
anomalously high amount of 
water. After hour one, three 
meters of rainfall was recorded, 
resulting in large scale flooding of 
~e Crater Lake National Park. 
A large serpentine entity, was 
spotted moving towards Crater 
Lake. It was unable to quickly

After seeing SCP-3310-I-2 
approach Crater Lake, ASCI 
personnel decided to abort the 
experiment and return SCP-3310 
to Crater Lake. SCP-3310 was 
returned approximately 45 

inutes after removal. 


SCP-3310 was removed from 
Crater Lake by the newly formed 
SCP Foundation to reconfirm 

iomalous properties. 
Wind speeds around Crater Lake 
began to exponentially increase, 
forming a vortex around Crater 
Lake. At the time SCP-3310 was 
returned to Crater Lake, wind 
speeds had reached 120 
kilometers per hour and were 
projected to reach 300 kilometers 
per hour within the next thirty 

inutes. 
A large avian entity, with an 
estimated wingspan of 5 to 6

Addendum-B: Note from Pangloss 
The following note and an artistic depiction of SCP-3310 were found 
inscribed upon a boulder on Wizard Island on November 30th, 1945. 


Some tombstones mark where the dead have been 
interred, while others serve to keep the dead interred. 
Llao's is of the latter.

Addendum-C: Office of Tactical Theology Report 


Prepared by the Office of Tactical 
Theology 


Subject: Llao and Crater Lake 
Date: December 15th, 1945 


Report: Investigation by the Office of Tactical Theology has 
indicated that Llao is a god within the mythology recognized by 
the Klamath Native American tribe, indigenous to the region 
around Crater Lake. In this mythology, Llao is a god of the 
underworld and monsters, and is opposed by the god Skell, a god 
of the sky and animals. Llao has been described as deceased, 
with his remains located in Crater Lake. 


The following is a myth from such mythology, translated into 
English: 


Skell and Llao were the mightiest of gods, 
warring against each other. Skell ruled over 
the sky, and had dominion over the spirits of 


animals. Llao ruled over the underworld, and 
had dominion over the spirits of monsters. 


One day, Llao and Skell fought each other. 
Llao, being the stronger and more aggressive 
of the two, overpowered Skell and killed him. 
He tore out the heart of Skell, and returned to 
Mount Mazama, where he ruled. 


Llao invited all the spirits to come to Mount 
Mazama, to celebrate his victory. Even the 
spirits of animals, who had served Skell, 
came. Llao hosted many games and 
celebrations in his triumph over his enemy. 


One of these games involved the spirits 
playing with the heart of Skell. During the 
game, the spirits of animals were able to 
steal the heart from the spirits of monsters. 
Taking the heart with them, the spirits of 
animals fled from the celebrations. 


The monsters attempted to catch the animals 
and take back heart. However, the animals 
were swifter and nimbler, and escaped with 
the heart. With the heart reclaimed, they 
were able to perform a ritual and return Skell 
to life. 


Skell, returned to life, challenged Llao again. 
This time, he did not lose and managed to kill 
Llao. He tore Llao into pieces, and cast them 
into Crater Lake, where the monsters would 
consume them, believing they of Skell. 
However, when Skell threw the head of Llao 
into the lake, the monsters recognized it. 
Llao's head became Wizard Island. After this, 
Skell threw the heart of Llao into the lake. 


The spirits of monsters, despairing over the 
loss of their master, scattered to the winds,

they rule the world to this day. 


Additionally, the Office of Tactical Theology has noted high levels 
of Akiva radiation in the area around Crater Lake, indicating that 
a god or similar entity may be in the area. Such readings spiked 
during the most recent activation event, indicating that a divine 
entity may have been present or active at the time. 


It is the official recommendation of the Office of Tactical Theology 
that further testing of SCP-3310 should immediately cease, and 
that all effort should be undertaken to prevent future events. 
Further, it is our recommendation that SCP-3310- should be 
impeded by any means necessary from reaching Crater Lake. 
Finally, we recommend a reclassification of SCP-3310 from Safe 
to Hiemal. 


Addendum-D: Current Situation 


Reporter: Field Operative Lance Owens 
Date of Event: July 24th, 2005 
Severity of Event: Low 

Sigma Type: Varies 

Gamma Type: Varies 

Event Duration: Ongoing 


I'm not sure if this is the right format to say something 
like this, but I'm not sure how else | should do it. This is 
what | was told to use whenever the Old Man got stuck, 
but nobody ever told me what | should do if | needed to 
file something else instead. I've only really ever been 
briefed on what to do concerning 3310, and that's my 
only interaction with the Foundation. I'm sorry if this is 
wrong. 


There hasn't been an activation event of SCP-3310, but 
there's been some strange things happening around 
Crater Lake that | didn't think were right. It's a bunch of 


small things, little tidbits and pieces of information that 
you aren't really sure mean anything on their own, you 
know? It's just built up to the point where | felt | had to 
say something. 


| guess | should start. The first things first: the weather 
around Crater Lake has been getting freaky lately, even 
when the Old Man is perfectly fine floating in the lake. 
There hasn't been anything as big or as huge as a Sigma 
event, but it's just little things and | don't know if they 
mean anything by themselves. 


The temperatures been odd lately. One day last week, 
the temperature spiked to 90 degrees, which is 
significantly above the average temperatures up here. It 
stayed there for about an hour, and then dropped back 
down to the normal temps in the 60s we get. That's not 
the first time it's happened, mind you: we've been getting 
that a couple times every summer for a decade, and the 
reverse in the winter. 


There's been some strange weather too. Three weeks 
ago it snowed a foot, in July. Snow in July isn't weird out 
here, but that's more than we're used to. | went out to 
spot the Old Man, and | find him in the middle of Crater, 
bobbing along, just fine. The snow kept falling, and it 
seemed like a normal, light snowfall except for the time 
of year. | watched the Old Man the entire time, and he 
was fine the entire time. 


There's also been some strange sightings that | think 
might be related to the Gammas. Again, | want to say 
that the Old Man has been safely within Crater Lake 
whenever these sightings took place, and we've 
confirmed the whole thing as not being because 
movement got fucked up. 


Ever since that event in '96, wolves howl on some of the 
full moons. It's loud, and you can hear the howls for 

miles. There's only one problem: there aren't any wolves 
in Crater Lake, or anywhere around here. On one of the 


first nights, | went out to check out the problem. 


| got down to the lake and saw dozens of massive 
wolves, the size of cars, howling in unison. They didn't 
react to me being there at all, just standing there, 
howling at the water's edge. They were all grey and 
vague, like how Ash has described the Gammas to me 
as. | went back to get a gun, and by the time | got back 
they were gone. 


At the start of this summer, we had some campers, and 
me and Ash stayed on camp to make sure nothing bad 
happened. That night, we heard this low hum, coming 
from somewhere. The campers said it was a UFO, but 
we knew better. The hum kept getting louder, but we 
couldn't leave to check it out, since we had to keep an 
eye on the campers. 


The hum kept getting louder and louder, and then, a dark 
shape flew over the camp, headed off into the distance. | 
chased after it while Ash stayed behind to keep watch on 
the campers. | was able to follow it for a couple minutes 
before the trails couldn't be passed anymore, at which 
point | decided to go check on the Old Man. 


| got to the lake and went out on the boat, looking for the 
Old Man. He was drifting alone peacefully on the lake. 
The whole scene was nice and peaceful, until the shape 
flew over us and then crashed into the water. It was the 
strangest thing - it didn't break the surface, just bounced 
right off like it was concrete. There was no spray of 
water, no explosion. The thing just picked itself up and 
left. 


| don't want to seem like I'm jumping to conclusions here. 
I've held off on reporting any of this because none of it 
seemed linked to the Old Man to me. But lately I've been 
thinking - we don't really know how this works, do we? | 
don't know if some eggheads in a lab have pieced this 
whole thing together, but you haven't told me if you did. 
What if Llao is breaking through, or is growing stronger, 


or something? 


The stuff I've seen recently, it just seems like the Old 
Man is failing to do its job. | mean, ten years that was 
that whole incident where it activated while it was still in 
Crater Lake. I've got notes here about the ASCII tying 
the thing up and not getting a response, which means 
that something had to have changed recently. And with 
the whole ghosts and minor weather disturbances, it just 
feels like stuff is slipping through. 


Footnotes 

1. Crater Lake sits with in the caldera of Mount Mazama, an active 
volcano. Mount Mazama is located in Crater Lake National Park, 
Oregon, USA. 

2. These reports were never proven, and are believed to be 
spurious. 

3. Excerpt from the journal of ASCI Agent Herbert Williams:There 
were strange figures in that mist. When any of us attempted to 
approach them, they would shy away from us, further into the fog. 
There was something quite queer about them, however. Some of 
them seemed to possess too many limbs at time, and those limbs 
were far too long. When we let them be, they seemed to be all 
heading in a singular direction, which | realized was the lake after 
the fog cleared. 

4. Foundation security around SCP-3310 had become lax after an 
assessed low threat level. No embedded agents were present at 
Crater Lake on this date, but the plan to secure SCP-3310 was 
approved by higher level embedded agents, not believing 
anomalous effects would activate. 

5. Records of this event are lack precision, due to Foundation 
personnel not being physically present.
