SCP-1761-1 claims to be the "Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams", a 
nation-state allegedly located in North America. While no evidence 
of such a nation exists, either in modern or historical records, 
SCP-1761-1 can, if prompted, provide a lengthy, self-consistent oral 
history of the country (see document 1761-87 for a transcript of this 
account). 


In addition, SCP-1761-1 is capable of “issuing” currency from the 
Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams by producing it from an unknown 
location on its person. This currency was printed on paper 
composed primarily of cotton (similar to US bank notes) until 2005, 
when SCP-1761-1 began producing polymer notes, which featured 
anti-counterfeiting measures such as watermarks and security 
threads. Isotopic analysis of these notes has found no anomalies. 


While no physical limits have been observed on the amount of 
currency SCP-1761-1 can issue at any one time, SCP-1761-1 
refuses to issue more than 10,000 "Fitzwillian dollars" per calendar 


month, in order to “prevent inflation”. However, SCP-1761-1 will 
issue more than this if provided an amount of another currency (for a 
list of SCP-1761-1's "exchange rates", please consult document 
1761-55). All such currency will vanish upon being accepted by 
SCP-1761-1; RFID tags implanted in bank notes are not detected on 
SCP-1761-1's person. To date, no establishment is known to the 
Foundation that will accept Fitzwillian dollars as currency. 


SCP-1761-1 has also produced postage stamps (discontinued in 
1995 "due to a dispute with the Universal Postal Union"), driver's 
licenses, marriage licenses, birth certificates, death certificates, and 
other similar government-issued documents, usually containing the 
information of alleged citizens of the Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams. 
None of these persons have been confirmed against external 
records. 


SCP-1761-1 has a very limited number of responses to questions 
posited directly to it, mostly concerning the alleged history of the 
Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams, its alleged geographical features, 
and its desirability as a tourism destination. For all other questions, 
SCP-1761-1 will answer “The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams does 
not have an official statement at this time.” 


If SCP-1761-1 is asked more than 10 consecutive questions to 
which it does not have a prepared statement, or if it is directly 
prompted to, it will suggest a 1761-delta event at a provided time 
and place. 


During a 1761-delta event, a humanoid entity (designated 
SCP-1761-2) will appear in the nearest unobserved area to the 
place provided to SCP-1761-1. SCP-1761-2 will claim to be a 
diplomat of the Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams. There are currently 
12 documented instances of SCP-1761-2, each with distinct names 
and appearances (see addendum 1761-A below for a list of 
SCP-1761-2 instances). 


SCP-1761-1 and SCP-1761-2 possess an anomalous awareness of 
each other's circumstances; that is, an SCP-1761-2 instance will be 
aware of anything which happens to SCP-1761-1, and vice versa. 


SCP-1761-1 cannot be harmed or subdued unless the attacker 


states some kind of declaration of war, or if SCP-1761-1 declares 
war on another party. 


SCP-1761-1 has also been observed offering citizenship (and in the 
case of some Foundation personnel, asylum) to individuals, either 
directly or through SCP-1761-2. If an individual accepts the offered 
citizenship, they will be given a passport and immediately vanish. To 
date, only one individual who has accepted citizenship from 
SCP-1761-1 or SCP-1761-2 has been located (see addendum 
1761-C) 


Addendum 1761-A: Incident logs 


Incident 1761-1: SCP-1761-1 declared war on Agent , who 
was responsible for subduing SCP-1761-1 during a containment 
breach (it should be noted that any physical force was wholly 
ineffective until after SCP-1761-1 made a declaration of war). 
Immediately afterwards, a 1761-delta event occurred, wherein an 
instance of SCP-1761-2 negotiated terms for surrender. These 
terms included the immediate recontainment of SCP-1761-1, as well 
as several points regarding the future containment of SCP-1761-1. 


Incident 1761-2 SCP-1761-1 showed a marked change in behavior, 
becoming increasingly active and violent, and occasionally engaging 
itself in heated debate on the subjects of human rights and 
economic policy. After 15 days, this behavior subsided. 


Incident 1761-3 Following several rounds of testing of 
SCP-1761-1’s citizenship offering, SCP-1761-1 announced that it 
was “closing [its] borders temporarily”. For the following six days, no 
personnel were physically able to come within 1 meter of 
SCP-1761-1. 


Incident 1761-4 Citing “deep cultural heritage”, SCP-1761-1 
“annexes” its containment chamber. Personnel are unable to enter 
the containment chamber without a visa approved by SCP-1761-1 or 
SCP-1761-2. Foundation diplomats successfully negotiated the 
return of the containment chamber, on the condition that the 
Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams and the SCP Foundation enter into 
an "alliance", to "protect the future interests of the Republic against 
larger powers."

Interviewer: Dr. 


Foreword: D-38609 is the only known person to have 
re-appeared after accepting citizenship from 
SCP-1761-1. D-38609 was found in a corridor directly 
adjacent to SCP-1761-1’s containment area. D-38609 
exhibited severe lacerations on his back and arms, was 
missing several teeth and his right hand, and was highly 
disoriented (presumably from blood loss). 


<Begin Log> 


Dr. _: Can you tell me what happened after you 
accepted SCP-1761-1’s offer of citizenship? 


D-38609: The place was, you know, really nice. The 
people were all really nice to me. 


Dr. |: Uh huh. How did you receive these injuries? 
D-38609: |...1 don’t remember. I’m sorry. 


Dr. : Youdon’t remember? According to our doctors, 
you've been very severely whipped and beaten. Your 
hand was traumatically amputated, and it appears that 
some of your teeth have been pulled out. Does any of 
this ring a bell? 


D-38609: I'm sure. I'm sure, I'm totally sure. Nothing 
happened. Nothing, nothing, nothing. Really. Nothing, 
nothing. Nothing. 


Dr. _: Do you have any idea how you returned here? 
D-38609: No. | don’t know how | made it out. 
<End Log> 


Closing Statement: D-38609 died shortly thereafter 
from complications of his injuries. 


Addendum 1761-D: 


Interviewed: SCP-1761-1 
Interviewer: Dr. 
Dr. : Explain to me what happened to D-38609. 


SCP-1761-1: The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams is a 
sovereign state with its own laws. Any and all immigrants 
are bound by these laws, as are any other citizens. 


Dr. : That doesn’t explain his injuries. 


SCP-1761-1: The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams only 
administers punishment following a fair trial by the 
Justice Department of the Republic of Arnold 
Fitzwilliams. 


Dr. : What crime did D-38609 commit? 


SCP-1761-1: The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams is 
aware of the criminal records of D-class personnel 
employed by the SCP Foundation. 


Dr. —_: You’re avoiding my questions. 


SCP-1761-1: The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams 
supports human rights and freedom of information. 


Dr. |: One more question. What happens to the other 
people who accept citizenship? 


SCP-1761-1: The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams does 
not track the movements of individual citizens. 


Addendum 1761-E: 
Interviewed: SCP-1761-2D 
Interviewer: Dr. 


Foreword: Following the interview catalogued in 
Addendum 1761-D, Dr. initiated a 1761-delta event. 


SCP-1761-2D: Good afternoon, Dr. =. Howcan |help 
you today? 


Dr. : I'm here to ask about D-38609. 


SCP-1761-2D: The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams does 
not comment on the situations of individual criminals. 


Dr. _: I’ve yet to see any kind of formal charge. 


SCP-1761-2D: I’m afraid those records are not made 
available to foreign diplomats. 


Dr. _: | don’t suppose you can explain his injuries to 
me? 


SCP-1761-2D: The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams 
attempts to administer psychiatric care to those 
convicted criminals who need it. However, despite the 
best efforts of our psychiatrists and guard staff, many of 
these people still present a danger to themselves and 
others. 


Dr. _: So, what, you’re saying he got injured in prison? 


SCP-1761-2D: The Republic of Arnold Fitzwilliams does 
not comment on the situations of individual criminals.

SCP-1762: Where The Dragons Went 


Item #: SCP-1762 
Object Class: Safe Neutralized 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1762-1 is held ina 
standard containment unit at Site- . During the periods when 
SCP-1762-1 releases SCP-1762-2, video logs are to be recorded for 
future research. Although instances of SCP-1762-2 have been 
deemed harmless, they should not be allowed to exit their 
containment unit. 


Description: SCP-1762-1 is a plain, cardboard box that is 32 cm x 
20 cm x 26 cm. It is spray-painted silver on the interior and exterior, 
and the words "HERE BE DRAGONS" are handwritten in black 
permanent marker on the lid of the container. Opening the lid of 
SCP-1762-1 when it is not in the process of a release reveals it to 
be empty. 


SCP-1762-1 will infrequently open and initiate a release of 
SCP-1762-2. During this time, the box will briefly emit a large 
amount of black smoke that quickly dissipates; it takes an average 
of twenty seconds for SCP-1762-2 to emerge after the smoke 
clears. 


SCP-1762-2 is the collective term applied to the beings that emerge 
from SCP-1762-1. All instances of SCP-1762-2 bear resemblance to 
various types of dragons, in both Eastern and Western depictions, 
albeit in forms similar to that of origami models. Analysis of 
SCP-1762-2 reveals that they are composed of Kami paper. After 
exiting SCP-1762-1, instances of SCP-1762-2 will fly together in 
large groups and interact playfully with any nearby personnel and 
each other. 


SCP-1762-2 vary in length from nine to thirty centimeters; all are 
capable of sustained flight once they exit SCP-1762-1, and have 


been recorded attaining speeds of 15 km/h. The number of 
SCP-1762-2 varies with each opening of SCP-1762-1, with numbers 
ranging from fifty to over four hundred. 


After approximately two to three hours of time spent outside of 
SCP-1762-1, all instances of SCP-1762-2 return and fly back into 
SCP-1762-1; during this time, SCP-1762-1 will once again begin 
emitting smoke, and instances of SCP-1762-2 will vanish after 
passing the rim of SCP-1762-1. SCP-1762-1 closes once all 
SCP-1762-2 have returned to it; the next date of release is 
inconsistent. 


A message written or carved into a varying material will sometimes 
materialize on top of SCP-1762-1's lid once the box retrieves all 
instances of SCP-1762-2. Attempts to send a message or recording 
device back with SCP-1762-2 have provided negative results. These 
documents and their appropriate dates of appearance are being 
compiled and recorded. 


Addendum 1762-01: On / /20 , SCP-1762-1 began to undergo a 
series of events that lasted 11 months and 28 days; these events, 
as well as prior incidents that led up to the beginning of the scenario, 
have now been classified under the title "The Jabberwocky Event". 


+ Addendum 1762-02: Documentation of "The Jabberwocky Event" 


Document 1762-1 Date Obtained: / /2004 This is the 
first recorded instance of SCP-1762-1 opening while 
contained at Site- . 


You have found us. Thank you. It has been so 
long since we last saw each other, friends. The 
Peace has been upheld. The Giants and 
Behemoths have kept their word and have not 
caused any trouble since you last came and 
gave the Order. We missed Your company. 
How has your Family been? Do You still know 
how to work your Room? You are welcome to 
visit anytime. 


Document 1762-4 Date Obtained: / /2004 


It's strange to see how much your world has 
changed; it is even stranger to see how we 
now appear in this place. In Fantasy, we are 
much bigger. Or maybe you've grown taller? 
Fantasy is still the same. We hope you can 
visit us like you used to. Though our Room is 
as grand as ever, it appears Yours has... 
shrunken? We do not understand. The Rooms 
were supposed to be maintained, as was our 
Agreement. Please restore the Belief. 


Document 1762-6 Date Obtained: / /2005 Only 
twenty instances of SCP-1762-2 appeared during this 
event. Said instances did not lift off and instead walked 
slowly on foot for the whole period they were out of 
SCP-1762-1. 


Friends, we apologize for our few numbers. 
We have had to remain in Fantasy for quite 
some time. The Others are growing... 
impatient. We are trying to keep the Peace, 
but please, for all of our Happiness, repair the 
Room quickly. We know You are trying. Your 
Family is the most imaginative of us All. 


Document 1762-14 Date Obtained: / /20 Along with 
ten instances of SCP-1762-2 appearing, three balls of 
yellow, crumpled construction paper were expelled from 
SCP-1762-1. These pieces were observed to shake 
violently for five seconds, then ceased all further 
movement. They were picked up by SCP-1762-2 and 
returned to SCP-1762-1. 


The Giants were foolish. Your Room was not 
ready to accept Them yet. We're sorry, friends. 
We hope that we can still see you, but time is 
growing short for our Happiness. 


Document 1762-15 Date Obtained: / /20 Five 
instances of SCP-1762-2 emerged, carrying said 
document. They immediately returned to SCP-1762-1 


after depositing it on the floor.
