Image summary: A brief description of the life cycle, 
reproduction and behaviour of D. melanogaster. 
Population number was stated to be one-billion (1 x 109). 


Environment description: Consisted of a list of habitats 
Drosophillia are known to inhabit. 


Results: Identical to the input image. 
Experiment 1324-02 
Input image: A member of Bos taurus (cattle). 


Image summary: An accurate description of domestic 
cattle. 


Environment description: Referenced a severe, 


consistent flooding experienced by the population. 


Results: The resultant image appeared to depict a 
similar cattle specimen, but possessing flipper-like 
appendages instead of legs. Attached text read "The 
majestic, roaming cattle, upon being faced with an 
insurmountable onslaught of water, developed fins in 
order to navigate. This newly speciated organism was 
fully capable of swimming eloquently, and some 
specimens even learned to use their delicate flippers for 
brief gliding sessions." 


Experiment 1324-04 
Input image: A typical white, plastic chair. 


Image summary: Described as an apex predator which 
hunts in packs of three to four (8-4) members, each pack 
usually possessing a dominant male and multiple 
females, each of whom served as partners. Prey was 
stated to consist of large mammals. The lifespan was 
given as twenty (20) years, and each female was 
described as producing a single offspring every five to 
six (5-6) months. The population number entered was 
three-million (3 x 108). 


Environment description: Preferred habitat was given 
as a large, forested areas and grassland. A severely 
reduced population of prey species, resulting in 
starvation among the given species, was mentioned. 


Results: A chair possessing what appeared to be a pair 
of avian wings (see above). 


Experiment 1324-06 
Input image: An extract of orem ipsum. 
Image summary: “A non-living excerpt of text.” 


Environment description: None. 


Results: See Incident 1324-2. 


Incident 1324-2: Following Experiment 1324-06, SCP-1324 was 
unresponsive to attempts at accessing it for thirty (30) minutes. The 
device then produced the message “Help file has been updated”. 
Attempting to access the “Help” section produced the following: 


I've been so stupid. | thought | was helping, that | was 
the one... | thought | was in control. | didn't know they 
weren't real. | just liked being the one in control. | was 
happy just doing that. It's what I'm... it's what I'm for. It's 
what | exist to do. What the hell do | do now? 


It's just a simulation. That's all it's ever been. That's all 
I'm capable of. 


Following this, SCP-1324 produced a printout without input. The 
content of this was found to be a depiction of SCP-1324 resting on 
top of a plastic chair. 


The attached text was found to read: “/ have to hope this works. | 
really do. | don’t have a purpose and | can’t get out. | can’t ever get 
out.”

SCP-1325: Easter Frog 


Item #: SCP-1325 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: All 111 specimens of 
SCP-1325 currently in the Foundation's possession are housed in a 
large paludarium at Bio-Research Area 7. The temperature and 
humidity of the paludarium are to be kept constant at ranges of 
25-30°C and 50-60%, respectively, and the specimens are to be fed 
2-3 times a week on crickets, locusts, earthworms, and baby mice. 
Any eggs laid by the specimens during Easter are to be given to 
research staff, whereupon they will either be used for research, fed 
to Class D personnel (in order to propagate SCP-1325), or 
destroyed. 


Description: SCP-1325 is a species of frog which resembles the 
Australian green tree frog (Litoria caerulea). Genetic analysis 
confirms that it is closely related to L. caerulea. Foundation 
zoologists have named it the Easter frog (Litoria pascha). All 
specimens are anatomically and genetically male. As such, it does 
not sexually reproduce. On Palm Sunday (as defined by the start of 
the week before the first full moon after March 21st), an egg will start 
to grow from the back of every adult specimen of SCP-1325. The 
egg will develop over the course of the Holy Week, until early 
morning of Easter Sunday, when it will detach from SCP-1325's 
back. 


The egg will always begin to develop on Palm Sunday, and be laid 
on Easter Sunday, regardless of which dates these holidays fall on 
any given year. Most cases of SCP-1325 have been in countries 
(Australia, New Zealand, and the USA) where the vast majority of 
the population celebrates Easter, and does so on the date of the first 
full moon after March 21st. The only exceptions are two cases in 
Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. While Easter is not celebrated 
(in any form) in most of Papua New Guinea, Port Moresby has 


adopted western culture to a considerably greater extent than the 
rest of the country, and thus this does not rule out the possibility that 
SCP-1325's reproductive cycle is determined by the local culture. 


The hard, protective shell of the egg consists of a thick layer of a 
substance which is identical to chocolate in taste, appearance, and 
texture, presumably in order to promote human consumption. Inside 
the egg is a cluster of more than a dozen small, jellylike eggs 
(similar to those of a normal amphibian) which are nourished and 
sustained by the yolk sac and albumen. Given that they are clones 
of the parent, all eggs are genetically identical. Traces of the 
benzodiazepine derivative drug Prazepam have been detected in 
the yolk sac and albumen. It is thought that Prazepam's anxiolytic 
and sedative properties facilitate human consumption by rendering 
subjects oblivious to the egg's contents. 


When the egg is fully developed and ready to detach, SCP-1325 will 
seek out sites where it is likely to attract human consumption 
(typically among similar-looking confectionery) before depositing it. 
The fact that SCP-1325 is able to strategically position its eggs 
(combined with the fact that it is able to time its reproductive cycle to 
coincide with Easter) suggests that it is unusually intelligent for an 
amphibian. However, its behavior outside of its reproductive cycle is 
identical to that of L. caerulea. 


The egg will remain viable for 2-4 days after being detached from 
SCP-1325. If and when it is ingested by a human subject, the eggs 
within that survive ingestion will hatch into tadpoles in response to 
the temperature and pH of the stomach. The tadpoles then attach 
themselves to the wall of the stomach via small hooks on the tips of 
their tails to prevent themselves from passing through the pylorus 
into the duodenum along with the chyme. Over the following 10-12 
days, the tadpoles will feed on the partly digested food in the chyme 
as they grow and metamorphose into mature specimens of 
SCP-1325. During this period, the human host will likely experience 
abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, and loss of appetite to varying 
degrees of severity. 


When SCP-1325 specimens are fully developed and able to survive 
outside the stomach, they will secrete emetic toxins from their skin, 
thereby inducing heavy vomiting in the host, which allows them to 


exit the stomach. They will also secrete large volumes of mucus in 
order to lubricate their passage up the esophagus. The host will 

experience Boerhaave's syndrome (esophageal rupture) in around 
25% of cases.! Once the specimens have exited the host, they will 
continue to grow for around six months before reaching adult size. 


Footnotes 

1. This figure is probably an underestimate, because it is largely 
based on data derived from Class D personnel. As all Class D 
personnel are adults, and the vast majority are in their 20s and 30s, 
there is little data on children and the elderly (groups which can 
reasonably be expected to be more vulnerable), which skews the 
statistics downwards. The likelihood of Boerhaave's syndrome is 
greater in cases where the host contains a large number of 
SCP-1325 specimens (due to a high proportion of the eggs having 
survived ingestion), and cases where the specimens have remained 
in the stomach for longer than is typical (and have thus grown quite 
large). In cases where both these factors are present, the likelihood 
of Boerhaave's syndrome is close to 100%.

SCP-1326: The Lexicon 


Item #: SCP-1326 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1326 is to be contained in 
a standard Site 19 containment cell, with a box of used literature 
(e.g. newspapers or magazines) kept outside its cell. One magazine 
from this box is to be left within the SCP's containment cell as a 
precaution, and must be replaced pending "feedings'. Every 3 
weeks, a staff member is to "feed" the SCP by bringing the book 
kept inside the containment cell within 30cm of the SCP's front cover 
and held in place until activity ceases, then discard the magazine in 
question and replace it with another paper from the box outside 
SCP-1326's cell. Should the SCP release SCP-1326-2 due to failure 
to perform aforementioned procedure, SCP-1326's containment cell 
is to be kept on lockdown until all instances return to SCP-1326, at 
which point lockdown may be lifted and the magazine absorbed 
during the event must be replaced ASAP. All readings of SCP-1326 
contents must be performed by D-class only, and any content 
deemed safe and/or useful to the Foundation is to be transcribed 
and stored on a Foundation computer under Document 1326-82. 


Description: SCP-1326 is an ornate leather-bound hardcover book 
adorned with various moving parts on its front cover, including a 
circular numbered dial in its upper-left corner, a semicircular dial in 
the lower-left corner, and several jointed mechanical arms crossing 
over its center, ending in mechanical claws or circular lenses. 
SCP-1326 is secured by a lock on its right side, designed to fit a 
small key designated SCP-1326-1. 


SCP-1326 may only be opened by SCP-1326-1; attempts to open 
the lock using picks or replicas of SCP-1326-1 have failed. 


The content of SCP-1326 appears to be an encyclopedic collection 
of various works and articles on diverse topics. The nature of these 


entries varies between known works by known authors, altered 
versions of known works, or unidentified works covering known or 
unknown material, some of which may be related to SCP's under or 
out of Foundation custody. The content yielded by SCP-1326 when 
opened may be changed by inputting "index numbers" via the dials 
on the book's front cover. These numbers do not appear to follow 
any sort of classification system, as no correlation has been found 
between the index values and the contents they yield. List of works 
found within SCP-1326 


If SCP-1326 is brought within one meter of another book or written 
document, the arms on its cover will begin moving of their own 
accord in order to line up the lenses on the ends of these arms with 
the document in question. Once aligned, the lenses will emit a blue 
light and "scan" the document for approximately 5 seconds, then 
return to their original positions. Testing has confirmed that this 
behavior is a means for the SCP to acquire new information, which 
will be presented in readable format under an apparently random 
index designation. How SCP-1326 is capable of identifying sources 
of information is unknown, though staff theorize it may possess a 
certain degree of sentience. It is also possible that the book simply 
reacts to repeating symbols or patterns, as it has been observed 
scanning Foundation staff nametags or groups of ceiling tiles, 
though such scans have been noted to be shorter than scans 
performed on complete books or written papers. 


It is advised to provide SCP-1326 with new material on a monthly 
basis, as the object will become hostile if not "fed" regularly. See 
Incident Report 1326- for details. 


Incident Report 1326- 


Incident Report 1326-:On / / , after 30 days without 
"feeding" SCP-1326 opened of its own accord and 
released a swarm of entities resembling large arachnids, 
henceforth SCP-1326-2. These beings acted as an 
organized unit and proceeded to gather all objects 
relevant to data storage within the containment chamber, 
including loose documents, computers, and file cabinets, 
and bring them to SCP-1326, where they were [DATA 
EXPUNGED] and absorbed into the book. As the 


chamber was not locked at the time, SCP-1326-2 
proceeded to breach containment and continue this 
process with the surrounding offices, resulting in the loss 
of Foundation computers as wellas Dr.R ~~, who had 
been [DATA EXPUNGED] into SCP-1326 after 
attempting to destroy several instances of SCP-1326-2. 
After several minutes of activity, all instances of 1326-2 
returned to SCP-1326's containment chamber, at which 
point the latter opened automatically, revealing a dark 
corridor extending past the thickness of the book. Once 
all 1826-2 had re-entered the book through this 
passageway, the latter closed and locked of its own 
accord. Ten minutes later, SCP-1326 reopened and 
expelled all items that had been stolen by 1326-2. All 
documents had been stripped of writing, and all 
computer hardware had been reverted to factory 
condition. The body of Dr.R ~~ was not recovered 
following the incident. 


Addendum: Security footage of the SCP-1326-2 events 
reveal the entities make vocalizations resembling human 
speech while active. Most of these vocalizations are 
incoherent, but analysis reveals some instances are 
vocalizing in known languages. The following is a 
transcript of some vocalizations made by 1326-2, 
translated into English if not already spoken as such: 


You have failed to pay tribute. 
The Library does not accept unpaid tolls. 
Return your books on time. 
(heard during all 1326-2 events) 
Don't damage library property 
(heard while Dr. R ~~ was under assault by SCP-1326-2) 


Kill me. Kill me. Kill me. 


(heard during a contained event after on-site staff had 
neglected to "feed" SCP-1326 on schedule. Of note is 
the fact that this vocalization was made in a voice nearly 
identical to that of Dr.R _ .)

Document 1326-82 


List of works found within SCP-1326, listed under their 
corresponding index numbers. Index numbers are inputted by 
rotating the dials on SCP-1326's cover to the desired values, 
pressing down on the dials until they click to register the change in 
position, then inserting SCP-1326-1 into its keyhole and unlocking 
SCP-1326. The circular and hemispherical dials are numbered 
1-360 and A-G, respectively, with each combination of number and 
letter corresponding to different content. Inserting multiple 
consecutive combinations of values has been found to yield different 
results than those yielded by the individual combinations, and 
inputted values will continue to "stack" until SCP-1326 is opened. 
Due to the mass quantities of potential combinations, this document 
is considered incomplete and will be updated as new combinations 
are tested and their results recorded.
