NOTICE FOR ALL SCP-1463 RESEARCHERS: All versions of this 
file have not physically or digitally existed. When you first opened 
this document you viewed a specially designed cognitohazard, 
which implanted a memetic entity (Oz-Q2) into your head. Using 
techniques based on the Memetics Division's Project Radix, Oz-OQ2 
can create documents that exist in a purely informational sense, 
drawing both from base data in Oz-Q2 and your thoughts on the 
events you are experiencing. This document serves as a way to 
rationalize your thoughts when faced with dangerous antimemetic 
and memetic threats, such as SCP-1463, which can be the best 
method of survival. 


The encounter you just had with SCP-1463 in this office should let 
you understand how useful Oz-Q2 will be. In any other 
circumstances your mind should be wholly consumed by SCP-1463 
after you learned of it, but by using this document you kept enough 
semblance of sanity about you to try fighting back (door barricades 
will never be useful against it, though, so don't rely on them — it 
always finds another way in). 


Only view this document when you can mentally project its existence 
onto a tangible format, such as imagining the document to be 
existing on a piece of paper or computer terminal, with any changes 
you imagine making perceived as you writing or typing them 
respectively. Failing to do so risks destabilizing the memes being 
used, which would cause potentially lethal mental harm. Human 


minds better comprehend the physical world than abstract concepts. 


Special Containment Procedures: Oz-2 will begin guiding you to 
Provisional Site-33, where you will be protected from further 
SCP-1463 encounters and provided with new mission objectives. 


Normally this file is hidden in Foundation databases and marked as 
deleted (serving as the best method of containment for SCP-1463 
yet), but since several major breaches of antimemetic anomalies are 
in progress (including one at your location) it was decided to send 
the file to get researchers to safety. Research Team 1463 
apologizes for exposure to SCP-1463, but the information on the 
anomaly attached to Oz-Q2's document would cause exposure in all 
cases, and we have found no way to remove it that won't 
compromise Oz-Q2. No other documents with an entity like Oz-O2 
have been developed yet. 


Do not go to others for help. Doing so risks exposing other subjects 
to information on SCP-1463. Avoid amnestics as well — they will not 
make SCP-1463 forget you. When SCP-1463 manifests again, 
resume reading this file. Until you arrive at Provisional Site-33, you 
are alone. 


Description: You know all you can know at this time. Proceed to 
Provisional Site-33 and do not stop moving. 


Good luck.

SCP-1464: Pond of Atrocities 


Item #: SCP-1464 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: Except for approved 
experimentation, it is forbidden to observe SCP-1464 under natural 
lighting during the time period between sunset and nautical twilight, 
and during the time period between nautical dawn and sunrise; any 
research into the properties and contents of SCP-1464 during these 
time periods must be conducted under 1000-watt lamps providing 
full-spectrum illumination. The thirty-five (35) square kilometers 
surrounding SCP-1464 have been purchased by the Foundation via 
a front company, and serve as an interdiction zone. Civilians are to 
be dissuaded with a cover story of limnological research. 


The airspace above the interdiction zone surrounding SCP-1464 is 
restricted. Satellite imagery of the interdiction zone is to be 
intercepted and modified so that direct images of SCP-1464 do not 
become public. 


Description: SCP-1464 is a body of water in the forests of northern 
[REDACTED], approximately 82 hectares in size. When viewed 
under lighting conditions corresponding to dawn or twilight, 
SCP-1464 is a cognitohazard. Affected subjects experience highly 
detailed false memories of having participated in ritual crimes at the 
site of SCP-1464 at some point in the past; all affected subjects 
express intense remorse and guilt at having participated (regardless 
of whether this is compatible with their psychological profiles), 
describe the ritual as having concluded with a victim or victims being 
submerged within SCP-1464, claim that the ritual was necessary in 
order to prevent what is effectively an XK-class end-of-the-world 
scenario, and state that the ritual was incorrectly performed and 
must be repeated. 


The precise nature of the ritual described by affected subjects varies 


depending on a number of parameters, including but not limited to 
the density of foliage on surrounding trees, the presence of floating 
debris, and >1m modifications to SCP-1464's coastline (see 
document 1464-T17 for a full list of known parameters). Since 
coming to the attention of the Foundation, the parameters regulating 
SCP-1464's anomalous effect have undergone natural changes 
sufficient to result in a new configuration 85 times; as well, new 
configurations have resulted from deliberate experimentation 25 
times, and from accidental modification 3 times. 


All subjects exposed to SCP-1464 under a given configuration 
describe the same ritual; as well, subjects share an anomalous 
awareness of each other's existence, such that if three separate 
subjects are exposed to a given configuration, and then interrogated 
separately, they will all report that the ritual involved three 
participants, and will be able to corroborate each other's stories. 
Details of the ritual range from the plausible (the slaughter of nine 
nine-year-old children, at 9:09 AM, on the ninth day of the ninth 
month, 1999) to the nonsensical (the rape and strangulation of a 
green 1978 Volkswagen Beetle, on the fifty-sixth day of June, 1974); 
at no time has any subject expressed cognitive dissonance, 
regardless of how incompatible the described scenario is with 
reality. 


Underwater exploration and sonar analysis of SCP-1464 have not 
revealed any of the submerged objects described by affected 
subjects, nor do missing-persons reports and reports of livestock 
theft correspond to any of the rituals described; however, in 
approximately 30% of cases, the scenarios which the rituals are 
allegedly intended to prevent correspond to worst-case 
extrapolations involving known SCPs. 


Samples of water and aquatic biota from SCP-1464 have not been 
found to be anomalous.

SCP-1465: Photographos Thaumantos 


Item #: SCP-1465 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1465 is to be contained 
within a standard Type-05 humanoid containment unit. No further 
physical security is necessary. 


No photographs, filmed material, or cameras of any kind are to 
come in contact with SCP-1465 outside of testing procedures. 
SCP-1465 is permitted to requisition recreational items that do not 
include photographs or live-action filmed material at the discretion of 
supervisory personnel. 


SCP-1465 has been cleared for check-ups with Dr. Ottmier every 
month, with changes in eyeglass prescription and other treatments 
as needed. 


Description: SCP-1465 is a European female of Greek-American 
descent, twenty-three years of age and measuring 171 cm tall. 
SCP-1465 does not bear any physical or mental abnormalities, with 
the exception of heavy damage to the cornea and conjunctiva due to 
repeated photokeratitis. SCP-1465 has been issued protective 
sunglasses to aid with the subject's sensitivity to bright light. A tattoo 
is located on the inside of the left forearm, which reads: “Tevn8ntw 
@wec” (Let there be light). 


When in contact with a photograph or filmed material, SCP-1465 is 
capable of extracting light from the photograph or film, forming a 
sphere 10-15 centimeters in diameter, which may then be moved 
about by SCP-1465. This sphere emits light with equal luminosity to 
the environment in which the photograph or film was taken, and 
closer inspection reveals it to consist of seven separate layers, each 
corresponding with a spectral color of the visible spectrum, with 
each layer consisting of a complex pattern of geometric shapes. 


Upon extraction, the photograph or film will turn black and will no 
longer display any image. Films affected in this way will retain 
sound. SCP-1465 is not capable of affecting artistic depictions, 
heavily-doctored images, or animated films. 


After the formation of the sphere, SCP-1465 will, if permitted, 
remove any eyewear worn at the time and enter a state of 
heightened concentration, viewing the sphere for a period lasting 
between fifteen and seventy-five minutes, ignoring most external 
stimuli during the process. Upon completion, the sphere will 
dissipate: however, this is a voluntary act carried out by SCP-1465, 
and the extracted light may be dissipated at any time. This process 
is believed to be responsible for the majority of the subject’s eye 
damage. Affected photographs do not return to normal after 
dissipation of light. 


Recovery Log: SCP-1465 was recovered on / /2013, after the 
subject was witnessed demonstrating anomalous properties while 
visiting the Ansel Adams exhibit at the [REDACTED] Museum of Art. 
The subject was, at the time of recovery, suffering from caffeine 
overdose and severe sleep deprivation. Class-C amnestics and a 
cover story of petty vandalism were distributed with no 
complications. 


A total of 3123 pages of handwritten and typed notes, 126 photo 
albums with annotations, and 45 cameras were acquired from 
SCP-1465’s apartment during recovery. Recovered materials detail 
various theories and experiments carried out by SCP-1465. (See 
Document 1465-EX for further details.) The bulk of materials were 
extraction results, where extraction patterns were converted into a 
1477-symbol cypher and constructed language created by 
SCP-1465 for purposes of recording large amounts of data from 
viewed patterns. 


Addendum-01: The following excerpt is from an interview carried 
outon / /2013, three days after recovery. 


Dr. |: Whendid you first discover your properties? 


SCP-1465: Ah...you know, | don’t really know. Must 
have been ten, eleven...it wasn’t a whole ‘hey girl you 


have superpowers now’ thing, didn’t get bit by a 
radioactive Kodak or anything. Took me a while to even 
realize it was happening. Then it’s a little here, a little 
there, figuring out what | can do, and before you know it 
I’m locking myself in a darkroom for forty hours at a time. 


Dr. |: Mmm. Your notes were very thorough on the 
subject of your properties. 


SCP-1465: No use just sitting around on my hands and 
daydreaming about it. Gotta get something done, girl. ‘S 
what my mom always said. 


Dr. : Ofcourse. That’s very sound advice. 
SCP-1465: Any chance | can get my notes back? 
Dr. : No, I’m afraid. 


SCP-1465: Ah. One of those deals. Any chance we can 
pull a ‘This is my side of the room, that’s your side’ deal? 
Just leaving things be? 


Dr. :I’msorry, but no. [Clears throat]. Moving on, 
while your notes have been a great help in studying your 
case, deciphering them has been something of a 
difficulty. 


SCP-1465: | didn’t really intend for anyone else to read 
my personal research, so it’s pretty much completely 
your fault there. You could have waited for the completed 
thesis like everyone else. 


Dr. :Wehave sufficient resources to considerably 
further your research, but without your cooperation the 
project will go nowhere. 


SCP-1465: Fine. But only if you ask nicely. 


Dr. __: Very well. Could you please explain the principle 
of patterns further?
