Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2209-1 is housed in 
Secure Storage Unit B-89 at Site-151, with a power outlet modified 
to comply with SCP-2209-1's wiring system and power 
requirements. SCP-2209-1 is only to be connected to a power 
source during authorized testing. When testing is not underway, 
SCP-2209-2 is to be stored in a standard inanimate item 
containment locker in Secure Storage Unit B-89. Further testing of 
scenarios in "Ultra-Realism Mode" requires the authorization and 
presence of a researcher with minimum Level 3/2209 clearance. 


Description: SCP-2209-1 is a hollow spherical object with a 
diameter of approximately 3.8 metres. The outer surface of 
SCP-2209-1 is composed of stainless steel and bears no textural 
irregularities, with the exception of a circular entry hatch, a single 
ventilation grate for the intake/output of air, and a socket connected 
to a large cluster of removable power and data cabling. A hand lever 
adjacent to the socket allows power to SCP-2209-1 to be alternated 
on and off. The hatch is opened and sealed by means of a timed 
pressure-release mechanism with an embedded handle. Large black 
print on one side of SCP-2209-1 reads "VRZ PRT-TYP 4512". The 
internal surface of SCP-2209-1 is composed of white HDPE plastic 
with an array of electrical lighting and evenly spaced, circular plates 
of a currently unidentified metal alloy. 


SCP-2209-2 is a full-body suit composed of an inner layer of 
elastane and a thin outer layer of dark neoprene. Multiple metal 
nodes on the limbs, hands, chest, and spine of the suit are 
connected by a complex network of wiring. Fixed to the head of the 
suit is a large headset with a visor, which connects to a network of 
smaller, more closely-spaced cranial nodes. 


When provided with an adequate power source, SCP-2209-1 is 
capable of recreating a number of complex, presumably 
predetermined virtual reality scenarios for the subject wearing 
SCP-2209-2. Test subjects have consistently attested to the total 
verisimilitude of said scenarios, experiencing sensations and 
physical effects that cannot be accurately replicated using current 
conventional technology (refer to Test Log). Upon being sealed 
within SCP-2209-1 and stepping onto a large central plate, the 
subject is prompted by an artificial androgynous voice! to select a 
scenario. Following voice confirmation, the chosen virtual scenario 
will be recreated for the subject. 


SCP-2209-1 and SCP-2209-2 were recovered from a suspected 
Prometheus Labs facility in , South Africa on /02/2007, 
following a tip received from a Foundation agent operating in the 
area. A thorough search determined the facility to be abandoned, 
and failed to produce any links to Prometheus Labs Inc. However, 
recovered documentation contained multiple references to Simtec 
Virtual Solutions, an unlisted company. 


Addendum: 


Following Test 2209-024515-B ( /04/2007), it has been determined 
that SCP-2209-1 possesses limited sapience, and is capable of 
coherent interaction with subjects. Testing aimed at determining the 
full extent of SCP-2209-1's sapience is currently under 
consideration. 


For further details, see Test Log 2209-024515.

Dr. Davids: D-5081, are you ready to begin? 

D-5081: Yeah. This suit is actually pretty comfy. 

Dr. Davids: Can you describe to me what you're seeing? 


D-5081: Can't see shit through this thing over my face, 
man... wait - | can see myself! 


Dr. Davids: What do you mean? 


D-5081: It's like I'm looking at myself through a whole 
bunch of cameras. I'm in a big round room. Well, more 
like I'm inside a giant hamster ball. The walls are white 


and covered in all these little metal circles. And there's a 
big circle in the middle in front of me, with blue lights all 
around it. 


Dr. Davids: Walk towards it. 
D-5081: Okay. Damn this feels weird. 
[Subject regains orientation and steps onto central plate]

is in here! It's frickin' incredible! 


Dr. Davids: Please stop shouting. Try to interact with 
one of the projections. 


D-5081: Okay. Hello?! Corey?! [brief pause] He's just 
ignoring me. 


Dr. Davids: Oh well. End the test then. 


D-5081: No man, wait! There's something | have to do 
first; I'll probably never get this chance again. 


[Subject takes three steps forwards, then launches 
himself into the air. Subject does not fall. Subject 
remains suspended an estimated 0.8 metres in the air.] 


Dr. Davids: D-5081... how are you doing that? 


D-5081: Doing what? I'm crowd-surfing, man! | can feel 
them pushing me up! 


Dr. Davids: Interesting... End the test now. 
D-5081: Do | have to? 


Dr. Davids: You will comply with orders, D-5081. | 
repeat: end the test. 


D-5081: Okay, okay, I'll make it stop. Computer guy? 
Computer guy! Stop the concert! 


SCP-2209-1: Would you like to exit this scenario? 
D-5081: Yes. 
SCP-2209-1: Exiting scenario. 


[Sounds of music and cheering cease. Subject falls to 
the floor.]

a scale of one to ten? 


D-5081: ...fuck. 


SCP-2209-1: Thank you! Would you like to try another 
scenario? 


<end transcript> 


D-5081 reprimanded. Injuries negligible. D-5081 requested to 
participate in further testing. Request granted on condition that 
subject co-operate fully with the test controller. 


| am very intrigued as to how SCP-2209 was able to achieve an 
apparent localized anti-gravity effect. Will conduct more thorough 
testing during the Zero-G Training scenario. - Dr. Davids 


Test #: 2209-024515-B

Test #: 2209-024515-C 
Date: /04/2007 

Subject: D-5081 
Scenario: Zero-G Training 
Ultra-Realism Mode: No 
Test Description: 


D-5081 equipped with a portable gravimeter in addition to standard 
equipment. Subject enters SCP-2209-1. 


<begin transcript> 


SCP-2209-1: Welcome to the Virtual Reality Zone! 
Please select one of our exciting virtual scenarios. 
Scenarios include: Entertainment. |Q Challenge. Zero-G 
Training. Co— 


D-5081: That one. Zero-G training. 
SCP-2209-1: Would you like to try our new— 
D-5081: No, Four-Five. 


SCP-2209-1: Generating scenario: Zero-G Training. 
Mode: Standard. 


[Subject rises approximately 1.2 metres into the air. 
Gravimeter measures subject's gravitational acceleration 
as exactly 0.0 m/s squared.] 


D-5081: Wow... Doc, I'm floating in space. There's stars 
going on for... forever. 


Dr. Davids: Try moving around. 

[Subject waves arms and legs in a "swimming" motion] 
Dr. Davids: Are you going anywhere, 5081? 

D-5081: | feel like | am. | dunno, | guess | can't really tell. 


SCP-2209-1: Would you like to try another version of this 
scenario? 


D-5081: Lay it on me. This is getting kinda boring 
anyway. 


[The internal surface of SCP-2209-1 begins to rotate. 
After three seconds, the sound of rushing air emanates 
from SCP-2209-1's speaker system. Subject begins 
spinning wildly in mid-air.] 


D-5081: [screams] 


SCP-2209-1: Please wait fifty-three seconds to reach 
terminal velocity. 


D-5081: (shouting) Four-Five, end the scenario! 


SCP-2209-1: Are you sure you would like to exit this 


G01: That doesn't matter. They're coming closer. We have to get 
out. Weapons free. 

A57: Yes, sir! 

(static for 37 seconds) 

Unknown: In prehistory, the essence of life waited in the darkness. 
Its children turned against it. Now, all will be returned to the 
essence. 


Addendum: Past this point, no further portions of the log can be 
salvaged. A29, A57, and GO1 escaped from the hospital. 
Sterilization protocol was enacted minutes later, as it appeared 
several of the infected hosts were attempting to escape from the 
structure. 


The three survivors of the infiltration team were placed in 
quarantine, and samples of SCP-253 were obtained from them. 
Though treatment was attempted, none of them survived past five 
days. 


A48 was lost in the retreat, and unfortunately, his camera was 
unable to be salvaged. Though wireless backup protocols were in 
use, the distortion effect in the hospital meant a great deal of the 
photographic evidence collected in Incident |.J77.82 is fragmentary. 


A48's and A34's corpses were found, badly burned. Remains 
identifiable as A12 were not recovered. Other human remains were 
found, but with no recognizable trace of SCP-253. The sterilization 
site has been determined to be devoid of all traces of SCP-253, and 
will leave Foundation custody six months after the release of this 
Incident report. 


End of Incident report I.J77.82 


scenario?
