Persons will grow large bone and 
sinew structures on their backs, 
superficially resembling 
nonfunctional butterfly wings. 
These 'wings' are extremely 
fragile, and subjects are highly 
sensitive towards them. Subjects 
do not display any amount of 
control over these ‘wings’. 
Persons will appear to grow 
porcelain-like covering over their 
skin. This covering has an 
appearance similar to marble, and 
is extremely fragile. Due to the 
fact that there are no openings for 
the subject's nose or mouth, 
holes must be cut in this covering 
or else subjects will suffocate. In 
addition, large muscles will 
appear to grow on the subject. 
However, these new growths are 
actually a thin layer of skin 
stretched over a fluid filled cyst. 
Persons will grow large, sharp

SCP-1726: The Library and the Pillar 


Item #: SCP-1726 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: The path leading to SCP-1726 
is to be blocked by a guard post operated by the Foundation 
Chinese Branch under the banner of the People’s Liberation Army. 
No further security is necessary to prevent outside interference. 


SCP-1726 itself is not to be entered without at least one instance of 
SCP-1726-1 accompanying researchers. Personnel are not to 
remain within SCP-1726 for periods longer than four hours. 
Materials found within SCP-1726 are not to be removed from 
SCP-1726. 


Contact with SCP-1726-1 specimens is to be carried out according 
to Document 1726-CO. 


All documents copied within SCP-1726 are to be stored in Research 
Archive 18. 


Description: SCP-1726 is a one-story structure located in 
[REDACTED] Province, China. No anomalies are present in the 
materials used to build SCP-1726, and the original construction is 
estimated to date from around 1200 CE. 


The interior of SCP-1726 is a stable spatial anomaly, measuring 
approximately fourteen square kilometers in area. This space 
consists of a library, surrounding a small garden and fountain. The 
contents of this library consist primarily of philosophical, theological, 
and historical texts, accompanied by artifacts from civilizations in 
east and central Asia, many of which originate from cultures 
unknown to general anthropology. The oldest artifacts contained 
within SCP-1726 are a collection of Yeren tablets dated to 
approximately 30000 BCE. Other notable civilizations featured are 


the Shambhalan dynasties, the Lemurian river peoples, the 
dynasties of Mu, and the Daevic Empire. 


A stone pillar rises out of the central garden of SCP-1726, 

ascending through a hole in the roof to an unknown height and 
climbable by means of a wooden walkway spiraling around the edge 
of the structure. This pillar exists within the spatial anomaly of 
SCP-1726, and so is not able to be seen from the outside. The exact 
height is unknown: the highest point reached by Foundation agents 
is 12.8 km. 


SCP-1726-1 is a group of fifty-four known humanoid constructs, 
composed of porcelain. Constructs are hollow, capable of full 
articulation, and will generally appear to be stylized representations 
of scholarly cultural archetypes. SCP-1726-1 specimens are sapient, 
and are fluent in various dialects of modern and ancient Chinese 
languages, and other obscure or extinct dialects. SCP-1726-1-03, 
SCP-1726-1-20, and SCP-1726-1-44 are fluent in English. 
SCP-1726-1 behavior generally consists of studying the contents of 
SCP-1726, and in guiding visitors through SCP-1726. 


When an individual remains outside SCP-1726 for an extended 
period of time (one to six hours), a specimen of SCP-1726-1 will 
emerge from the structure and offer to lead the individual in a tour of 
the library. Upon returning to the entryway, the SCP-1726-1 instance 
will speak the following phrase in classical Chinese: "| have 
wandered a great distance, and | have learned ten thousand things." 
Unaccompanied entry into SCP-1726, even after using the 
appropriate verbal cue, will result in immediate expulsion from the 
structure by an unseen force. Extended time spent within SCP-1726 
(over four hours) will result in disorientation, memory loss, and 
nausea due to the spatial compression effects. Climbing the central 
pillar will not generate this effect. 


Addendum-01: Notable excerpts from texts include: 


“And as | looked back, | saw that my home was lost to 
the Beast’s stirring. The boat was shaken by the waves, 
as | watched the last fires on the hills of Mu die out. 
Despair clutches at my heart, for so much had been lost 
in our foolishness.” 


Taken from “The Records of the Destruction of Mu”, (c. 25000 BCE), 
a collection of short tales from one Kai-Zuun-Loo, a survivor of the 
destruction of the continent. 


“The Daevas returned in triumph, Ab-Leshal at the front 
of the column of soldiers and great war-beasts that did 
stretch to the horizon, bringing with them trophies of 
bronze from far-off lands and peoples in chains to the 
work in their slave pits. | watched, and | knew fear.” 


Taken from Fragment C of “The Traveler's Book” (c. 11000 BCE), 
records of an unnamed individual observing the Daevic Empire. 
Event described is the triumphal march of Daeva Hhu Rie in 11039 
BCE, as is further described in other records of the Low Daevic 
period. 


“Look here, look there, look behind and look forward. All 
things are connected, just as the lines of these words are 
connected, and the cycle turns ever more. Look to those 
who thought themselves gods: they were cast down by 
those they have enslaved. Slaves become masters, to 
be thrown down by their own slaves, and so the cycle 
goes, forever, until the Earth is blackened and the last 
stars have died. For the Great Ones have passed, and 
Mu has passed, and the lands to the South and the West 
have passed, and even the Empire has passed.” 


A quote from an unknown work, found in Scroll 8 of “Tya Jhalil”, (c. 
9000 BCE), a compendium of philosophy written in the aftermath of 
the collapse of the Daevic Empire. 


[Illegible] was here. 


Graffiti carved on the fountain in the center garden, date unknown, 
presumed to be at least 150 years of age. Written in English. 


Notable artifacts found within SCP-1726 include: 


¢ 1 non-functioning Eternal Engine dating from the High Daevic 
period (c. 15000 BCE), with schematics for repair. 
¢ 4 functioning Low Daevic period slave collars (c. 10000 BCE). 


Remains of 2 deceased hexapedal creatures resembling small 
cetaceans. Origin unknown. 

6 heavily damaged and inactive fragments of bronze 
clockwork. Fragments bear carved mantras from the Low 
Daevic period. 

A sample of tissue from an unknown organism. The tissue 
contains a high mineral content, and has visible strata within 
it. Sample is labelled "From the Beast that Destroyed Mu". 

1 wrought-iron lantern, date unknown. The flame within cannot 
be extinguished, and the addition of fuel does not generate 
any change. 

102 maps of civilizations cataloged within SCP-1726. 


Addendum-02: / /20 : An unknown entity was observed by 
researchers described as a squat humanoid with limbs similar to 
those of an arachnid. The entity was seen re-arranging books, and 
upon being seen fled from researchers and ascended the central 


pillar. 


General research within SCP-1726 has been halted for the 


time being.

SCP-1727: Auto-Heaven 


Item #: SCP-1727 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1727 is to be contained in 
a high-capacity containment vault, located in Site-77's Safe SCP 
wing. A pool large enough to encompass the mass of vehicles used 
in testing is to be kept in this containment chamber, being 
maintained daily by Foundation personnel. The area SCP-1727 was 
discovered in has been purchased by Foundation front 
organizations, with all nearby buildings being demolished. 


Description: SCP-1727 isa brand portable car wash, 
manufactured in 1999. The exterior is painted blue, with a logo for 
the non-existent "CRSHCRS! Corporation" printed on the sides. 
SCP-1727's interior components match those found in other 
brand portable car washes. 


When a vehicle enters SCP-1727, it will be cleaned normally by 
SCP-1727's components. The driver can select from several options 
to change the way their vehicle will be cleaned. A button at the 
bottom is labeled "Open-Sub cleaning", which costs twice as much 
as the other options. If the last option is selected, cleaning 
instruments will hold the vehicle in place, and the roof portion of 
SCP-1727 will open via an unknown mechanism. Following this, the 
vehicle will be catapulted upward, at an angle. SCP-1727 will then 
dispense a receipt with a personalized message. 


Access Example Documentation 


A quick job done well-Just as the customer 
likes it. 


High up and all clean, buffed by fluffy clouds. 


That was close. But exciting! 


Vehicles launched by SCP-1727 will continue being propelled 
through the air until they pass a source of water large enough to 
enclose them. Note that these vehicles do not follow a normal arc, 
but will continue moving through the air at the same speed until a 
suitable water source is located. These can be locations such as 
oceans, lakes, rivers, aquifers, or bodies such as swimming pools, 
fish tanks, and clouds. Using SCP-1872 will not affect a vehicle's 
trajectory or velocity. After reaching their destinations, vehicles will 
decelerate normally. Drivers do not typically survive impact. 


SCP-1727 was discovered after reports of vehicles hurtling through 
clouds were reported by passengers on a civilian aircraft. Initially 
classified as an Extranormal Event, further investigation was 
conducted after reports of a vehicle impacting the military 
testing course reached Foundation assets in the U.S army. A cover 
story regarding local pranksters was disseminated, with SCP-1727 
being classified as Safe on 11/17/2000. 


Incident 1727-1: During testing on 11/16/2002, a vehicle launched 
by SCP-1727 was not found. No report matching SCP-1727's effect 
have been found, and as of 4/14/2009 has not reappeared. The 
receipt message printed by SCP-1727 has been made available in 
this report.

SCP-1728: Buttery Decapitated Highwayman 


Item #: SCP-1728 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1728 is to be bound with 
wound polyurethane fibers to a steel table 1 meter by 2 meters in 
area. The table is to be contained within a sealed refrigeration unit, 
which is to be kept at a constant 0° C — standard temperature 
monitoring applies. Communication with SCP-1728 is to be 
conducted by one researcher at a time inside the refrigeration unit 
with the temperature raised to 10° C and one of SCP-1728's arms 
unrestrained. The door must be sealed before communication 
begins and unsealed only after the restraints have been replaced. 


SCP-1728-1 is to be kept in a polyurethane-lined box measuring 
30cm X 10cm X 5cm and stored in anomalous weapons 
containment. SCP-1728 is not to be made aware of SCP-1728-1's 
location. 


Description: SCP-1728 is a humanoid entity 1.5 meters in height 
and 57kg in weight. While otherwise human in form, the entity lacks 
a head — its neck ends in a cauterized stump approximately 
halfway through the larynx. Despite this, the entity is capable of 
functioning with normal human-like capacity and has no apparent 
sensory, motor, or metabolic difficulties. It cannot speak, but it is 
capable of writing. Subject has a grasp of the English language 
similar to that of a child of 8-10 years of age, and its intelligence 
shows likewise. 


SCP-1728 continuously exudes a substance chemically identical to 
unsalted dairy butter from the surface of its body. Because of this, 
the entity has an extremely low coefficient of friction. Removing the 
butter results in more being exuded to replace it. The butter 
generally remains closely adherent to SCP-1728's body, but rubs off 
on anything the entity touches. The butter has no anomalous 


properties when separated from the entity. Instead of fingernails, 
SCP-1728 has hollow points of bone that protrude from the ends of 
its fingers. It can channel butter through these bones to use them as 
pens or low-pressure jets. 


SCP-1728's only article of clothing is a pair of short burlap pants 
strapped over its shoulders with suspenders made of twine. Any 
other clothing slides off its body or becomes so damp as to be 
effectively useless. 


SCP-1728-1 is a 22cm-long steel knife with a handle made of cast- 
iron. SCP-1728 cannot easily hold onto any item other than 
SCP-1728-1. 


SCP-1728 actively resists containment. The entity is capable of 
slipping out of most forms of restraints, and will attempt to escape 
given any chance. It uses the butter it exudes to its advantage, 
sliding across nearly any surface at speeds of up to 34kph and 
leaving tracks of butter behind it. Its current goal appears to be to 
retrieve SCP-1728-1 from containment. SCP-1728 is difficult to hold 
onto or stop from moving; however, sufficient heat loss can cause it 
to mostly solidify, preventing escape. Additionally, polyurethane has 
shown to be capable of restraining it.
