SCP-3800's anomalous effect manifests when it is located within 
roughly 100 800 kilometers of any coastline, seashore, or ocean. 
Should this occur, instances of SCP-3800-1 will emerge from the 
ocean at an hourly rate of 5 to 20 instances per kilometer of 
coastline encompassed by SCP-3800's radius. 


Instances of SCP-3800-1 appear to be Caucasian humanoids with 
several physical abnormalities. Most notably, instances lack 
mouths, nostrils, genitalia, mammaries, anuses, and body hair. 
Additionally, all instances share traits of dwarfism and show little 
signs of higher intelligence. They possess no form of written or 
spoken communication, and lack any sort of religion, trade system, 
or hierarchy. Following initial manifestation, instances will walk to 
shore and begin establishing a colony. 


When in a group4, instances of SCP-3800-1 will attempt to establish 
a series of structures away from humans, aggressive fauna, or 
inhospitable areas. Specifically, instances will attempt to build 
shelters out of available materials and begin farming any available 
flora6. SCP-3800-1 instances will become agitated and hostile if 
impeded from creating these structures, or if they are destroyed. 
Additionally, instances have shown the ability to craft and utilize 
rudimentary tools such as clubs, axes, and digging sticks out of 
stone, wood, and grasses, but appear to be unable to create or use 
more advanced technology. 


Once instances of SCP-3800-1 have established their initial colony, 
they continue to expand it, building additional farms and shelters 
further out from their original settlement point”. Instances almost 
never engage in activity that does not benefit their colony, and 
usually spend their time gathering materials, building structures, or 
tending to farms. As the colony's population grows, instances show 
a progressively greater ability8 to clear obstacles preventing them 
from expanding their territory, such as thick flora, animal territories, 
and man-made structures. However, SCP-3800-1 has never 
attempted to cross bodies of seawater (following their initial 
manifestation) and appear unable to do so. 


For each square km of land that SCP-3800-1 incorporates into their 
territory, SCP-3800's radius of effect increases by roughly 5 km. 
This radius also increases by 5 km per day whenever no active 
SCP-3800-1 colonies exist. Due to continental constraints, a radius 
past 2645 km9 would result in an exponential increase in 
SCP-3800's range and uncontrolled SCP-3800-1 manifestations 
thereafter, leading to a possible RK-Class restructuring scenario or 
NK-Class end of the world scenario should it be left on Earth. 


Initial Discovery: SCP-3800 was initially discovered on 2/3/11 
following a 112 call from Useless Loop, Western Australia with 
reports of "strange men building houses in the middle of the road". 
Once an anomaly was confirmed in the area, Mobile Task Force 
Sigma-16 ("Dusty's Goons") were tasked with investigation, 
containment, and cleanup of the area. 


Initial contact with SCP-3800-1 was made on the same day, with 
structures created by the instances present for roughly 4 km along 
the eastern coast of Carrarang. Once cleanup of the structures 
began, SCP-3800-1 instances became hostile and attempted to 
attack MTF personnel, though not causing any serious injuries. All 
instances (and those that manifested thereafter) were tranquilized 
and transported to Site-23 for containment. 


While MTF-2-16 was stationed in the area, SCP-3800-110's radius 
of manifestation grew large enough to encompass much of the 
western Carrarang coast as well. A second colony manifested there 
and expanded unobserved for over 16 hours due to the small 
population density in the area. By the time this colony was 
discovered, the instances' manifestation radius had grown rapidly. 
Following this event, additional forces were called to aid in 
containment. 


SCP-3800-1 continued to manifest off the coast of Western Australia 
for roughly two weeks. During this time, SCP-3800's radius had 
grown to encompass the entirety of Carrarang's coastline, along with 
portions of Nanga, Dirk Harthog Island, and Francois Peron National 
Park. Due to the increasing radius of manifestation, emergency 
containment procedures were devised for the evacuation of Perth 
and other Western Australian cities, along with a complete 
quarantine of the Western Australian coast. 


On 15/3/11, SCP-3800 was discovered in an SCP-3800-1 shelter in 
northern Tamala and brought inland to Site-23, ceasing 
SCP-3800-1's manifestation. Due to inconsistencies between 
SCP-3800-1's initial manifestation location and SCP-3800's recovery 
location, it was determined that SCP-3800 had been moved at least 
once, likely by an instance of SCP-3800-1. Additionally, the structure 
in which SCP-3800 was located also contained a number of 
unusual"! items (see Addendum 2). 


The remaining SCP-3800-1 structures were destroyed soon after. 
Total losses numbered at$ indamage, _ injured civilians, and 
casualties. Amnestics were administered to _ individuals. All 
captured SCP-3800-1 instances!2 were placed under medically 
induced comas and contained at Site-23. 


Addendum: Roughly 5 months following initial containment, several 
instances of SCP-3800-1 manifested off the Great Australian Bight. 
Following containment (and subsequent remanifestation) of the 
instances, it was determined that SCP-3800's radius of effect had 
increased from an approximate 100 km to a minimum 800 km. 


It was hypothesized that SCP-3800's effect radius increases 
whenever no active SCP-3800-1 colonies exist. This was proven 
following multiple tests of SCP-3800-1 manifestation. All newly 
manifested instances'3 (along with the instances contained in 
Site-23) were transported to what would become Outpost 3800 and 
awakened from their comas. Following the creation of Outpost 3800, 
SCP-3800 was transported to its current location at Site-93 using 
the SCPS Kristov'4. 


Addendum 2 (Recovered Materials): Additional objects were 
found in the shelter where SCP-3800 was initially discovered. 
However, SCP-3800 was the only object that showed any 
anomalous capabilities. These items included one incomplete ocean 
navigation chart, one handwritten note, and one nonfunctional 
compass. All three items were dated to the late 1500s. 


The note appeared to be a ripped out diary page, and is written in 
Portuguese. Most of the note has been water damaged and is 
illegible. It is as follows, translated into English:

SCP-3801: Based on a True Story 


Item #: SCP-3801 
Object Class: Thaumiel 


Special Containment Procedures: All recovered SCP-3801 
instances are stored in a Class-C storage lockers, with at least one 
instance being present at each site containing memetic hazards. 
Sites requesting use of class E amnestics or higher are eligible to 
utilize SCP-3801 instances at the discretion of foundation personnel 
with level four clearance or higher. Transport and administration of 
SCP-3801 instances is managed by MTF Omicron-89 
(“Ghostwriters”). Under no circumstances should anyone be forced 
to use an SCP-3801 instance (If noncompliance is expected, the 
subject should be asked to use the object without explanation). 


Description: SCP-3801 is a collection of 794 loose-leaf journals 
which produce an amnestic effect capable of purging most memetic 
effects on any human who records events within the object. This 
effect only occurs after the pages written on are removed. Pages 
removed from the notebooks invariably disappear within five minutes 
of removal. 


When all individuals aware of an event record it within an SCP-3801 
instance and the corresponding pages are removed, some form of 
fictional recollection of said event will soontaneously begin 
circulating within the general population. These recollections can be 
expressed in mediums including books, video games, and children’s 
stories and are entirely mundane except for their origin. The actual 
creation of these recollections also appear to be mundane. Authors 
detained and interviewed by Foundation personnel have claimed to 
have been working on the recollection for months or years before 
the date SCP-3801 was used. 


Experiment Log: 


+ Show Experiment Log 
Test1- // 


Subjects: 2 individuals who had made contact 
with SCP- (terminated) 

Procedure: Subjects were instructed to record 
their experience encountering SCP-_ . The 
pages were then removed from the SCP-3801 
instance. 

Results: Subjects displayed no memories of 
the encounter within 5 minutes of the pages 
being removed. Eight days later, an oral 
narrative of a doll that murdered the individuals 
who purchased it before returning to the store 
it was originally sold at began circulating at 
Elementary School, Nu. 


Test2- // 


Subject: 1 D-Class Personnel 

Procedure: The subject removed one blank 
page of an SCP-3801 instance 

Results: SCP-3801’s pages disappeared in 
the same manner as the pages that were 
written on in Test 1. The D-Class Personnel 
reported no memory loss. No spontaneous 
recollections of the event were observed 
circulating the general population. 


Test3- / / 


Subject: 1 D-Class Personnel 

Procedure: The subject wrote down their 
breakfast in an SCP-3801 instance and tore 
out the page. 

Results: The subject displayed no recollection 
of what they had first consumed on the day of 
testing within 2 minutes of the page being 
removed. Other D-Class personnel present in 
the cafeteria at the time displayed no loss of 


memory. No unexplained recollections of the 
event were observed circulating the general 
population. 


Test4- // 


Subject: 17 Survivors of / / Site- 
containment breach 

Procedure: Each subject was provided a 
SCP-3801 instance and instructed to record 
the events of the breach that they were 
present. Subjects were instructed to remove 
their page after they had finished writing. 
Results: Subjects displayed no recollection of 
the containment breach concurrently with the 
last subject removing their sheet from the 
SCP-3801 instance. The spontaneous 
recollection of the event appeared 3 weeks 
later as a short story. The generated story 
differs from the actual events at several key 
points: Site- was replaced by a barn, MTF 
Theta-66 (“Redeyes“) was replaced by two 
professors and a librarian, and SCP- was 
successfully terminated rather than remaining 
at large. 


Test5- // 


Subject: 2342 individuals captured after 
exposure to SCP- 

Procedure: Subjects were forced to record 
their interactions with SCP-_. Uncooperative 
subjects were first threatened with physical 
violence, and then physically forced to record 
their experiences. The pages were then 
removed by foundation operatives. Memetic 
containment procedures were in effect. 
Results: Subjects displayed no memory of 
their exposure to SCP-__, and the memetic 
effect was successfully terminated. The 
recollection manifested between 1600 to 2100 


years prior to the experiment in the form of a 
religious document. Said document appears to 
be mundane, but departs widely from the 
actual events written in SCP-3801, with SCP- 
portrayed as a benevolent divine figure. 
Worship of SCP- _ is now widespread, with 
approximately % of foundation officers being 
compromised by this event. Further historical 
changes are being investigated, but are 
complicated by a lack of information on the 
timeline prior to the use of SCP-3801.
