Scholars would puzzle over the manuscripts for millenia. What in 
these words had led to so much anger and unrest? They were 
things that simply were not, and indeed, could not be. Hypotheses 
were posited in obscure academic journals for many centuries, and 
many a comfortably uneventful professorship was built on the 
question of "fear." 


Gilgali, The Tiger With Lantern Eyes, lumbered along the isles of the 
Library. Its breathing grew heavy as it staggered through the vast 
monument to its chains. Out of its drooping mouth hung a long, 
purple tongue. It had to find them, had to have them believe in it... 


It fell on its side, making only a slight rustling sound. It tried to get 
up. 


It was King, it thought. God of mankind, above the gods. It was what 
necessitated the gods. 


Its outline was becoming blurry now, its colors beginning to fade. 
But, it thought, the gods were dead. 


No, it would stand up, it thought. 


Breaths were coming more slowly now, its sides moving with each 
labored wheeze. 


Somewhere, somehow it would find purchase and tweak something. 
Set off a cascade, one that would plunge the universe into an 
eternity of darkness. 


lts indistinct paws waved weakly in the air. 

lt would... it would... 

It was now just a slightly discolored pocket of air. 
lt would... 

And that was that. It was gone. 


All around where it had once been, the Library continued its 
business unabated.

1. This document is being forwarded specifically to higher-level 
officers only due to certain political consequences for myself should 
the full content of this be revealed publicly. | trust all of you will 
behave with the utmost discretion when discussing the contents of 
this memorandum with your subordinates. 


2. The recent protests around Iran, which has served as the 
principal headquarters of this Organization in the half-century since 
its inception, have grown too significant to ignore. While we have 
made every effort in the past to abide by the intent of the 
Organization's founders to avoid official government association, | 
and the other members of the Central Committee have agreed that 
enforcing this separation is no longer in the best interest of the 
organization. 


3. My sympathies with Ruhollah Ayatollah Khomeini and his 
movement are well documented. While | know many in the 
Organization disagree with his fundamentalism, | doubt there are 
many who, in their heart of hearts, feel that Iran is better served by 
the despotic rule of a Western puppet-king. | have been in contact 
with Khomeini, who is aware of and tentatively interested in our 
organization, disturbed by its less than orthodox adherence to the 
strictest tenets of Sh'ia Islam though he may be. 


4. Two practical realities dominate this situation. First, we are not 
going to be rid of the Ayatollah or his movement. The Central 
Committee has projected a likely complete overthrow of the Shah's 
government and installation of some form of government under 
Khomeini by no later than this time next year. An insistence on 
opposition to this movement (which would not serve us) or 
autonomy (which would draw the ire of all sides) could lead to our 
destruction by those forces that do not understand the true role we 
play in protecting our homelands from foreign threats. Second, the 
Ayatollah is not likely to be rid of us. In my meeting with Khomeini, | 
revealed an aspecific portion of the plans for Operation Golden 
Horde, with a slight reminder that in a war of hearts and minds, 
hundred-meter-tall golems walking the streets of Tehran are not 
likely to be viewed as a positive harbinger for the new government. 


5. By agreement with the Khomenites, ORIA will formally become a 
wing of the new government as soon as it is installed in power; the 
Ayatollah feels that a degree of oversight would help us "come to 
understand" proper Orthodoxy in time. We will directly begin 
providing assistance to the protesters as we are able to, up to and 
including the special artifacts that we control; this will provide an 
excellent opportunity for field application and demonstration of the 
military capacities of our stored artifacts. In exchange for this 
assistance and our eventual sublimation into government oversight, 
| have been assured that our effective autonomy will not be 
tampered with by the new government. Our operations will continue 
unabated, our continued inclusion of non-lranian personnel from 
across the Muslim world, including Sunnis, Kurds, pagans, and Jews 
will not be opposed by the government, and we will soon be 
receiving direct funding from the national government of Iran, which 
should help us advance our cause. 


6. House Afseneh has directly insisted that they be left out of this 
arrangement. What little interest they have in human politics does 
not extend to revolution, and they have expressed extensive 
concerns about Khomeini. They have agreed that our traditional 
alliance shall be continued, with ORIA as the principal intermediary 
between our peoples, but any disclosure of the existence of the 
Afsenites or any other ajinn House may lead to a permanent 
termination of relations. | need not stress how damaging this would 
be to our cause. 


7. | will be resigning my position as head of the Organization 
effective immediately. The Ayatollah has requested, given my 
popularity and generally respected position among both 
fundamentalist Muslims in the country and some of the less- 
enthusiastic moderates, that | take a more active role in his 
developing government. Mohammad Khatami shall replace me as 
the head of this organization as Director; rather than being known as 
Chairman, his title shall reflect the official name this organization will 
have within the new government, the Islamic Artifact Reclamation 
Directorate. 


8. Protect our people. Protect our nations. In all times, this mandate 
will always stand. 


9. This memorandum transmitted 23 Sharivar 1358 (14 September 
1978).

SCP-692: Revives the Colours 


Item #: SCP-692 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: Each package of SCP-692 is to 
be stored in a sealed plastic container. Any cloth, synthetic textile or 
other coming into contact with SCP-692 is to be incinerated within 
one (1) hour of incident, unless it is being used for testing, in which 
case it is to be incinerated after testing. 


Security personnel present at testing are to be equipped with 
standard-issue gas-based flamethrowers. 


Description: SCP-692 comprises 57 packages of "Weisser Riese" 
washing powder secured by the Foundation from a general store in 
, Czech Republic, and several households nearby. All of the 

packages belong tothe / production series. 


Chemical testing reveals no statistically significant deviations from 
composition with respect to "Weisser Riese" washing powder of 
unaffected production series. 


When an article of clothing exposed to SCP-692 comes into 
uninterrupted contact at least fifteen (15) minutes long with a living, 
multicellular organism, within following four (4) to fifteen (15) hours, 
the article, (referred to as SCP-692-1) will spontaneously animate. 


SCP-692-1 at this stage show the contours of the imprinting 
organism, although bisection of several instances of SCP-692-1 has 
revealed that the inside of such contour contains air at ambient 
pressure. 


Through an as-of-now unknown mechanism, SCP-692-1 is capable 
of locomotion, manipulation of objects, and at times, accretion of 
more articles of clothing into its mass. Furthermore, SCP-692-1 with

1. Equivalent to SCP number, used to refer to the object 
or phenomenon at study. 

2. Equivalent to the SCP's "title"; may be used 
throughout document as author sees fit. Otherwise, 
serves to provide hint to reader about what the object is. 
3. Serves to establish a character in charge of the project 
in question. May be same as the document's Author. If 
not same as document's Author, the writer may choose 
to depict the Author as disagreeing with the Project 
Head's assessment, judgment, or behavior. 

4. Serves to establish a character as the writer of the 
document being read. Because of the personal nature of 
the Memorandum system, many parts of the document's 
writing style will be due to the Author's quirks, personal 
preferences, or intent. 

5. Where the document is going. Memoranda will usually 
either be going from ORIA's headquarters in Shemiran, 
Tehran Province, Iran (codename "JANNAH", the Arabic 
word for "paradise") to a field office/officer/unit, from the 
field to Shemiran, or within offices at Shemiran. 

6. Number of memorandum. Indicates to the reader how 
far along ORIA is in the process of experimenting or 
interacting with this anomaly. 

7. Number of pages in document. 

8. Using Gregorian calendar for convenience for writer 
and reader alike. If you use the Persian or Islamic 
calendars, nobody here will really pitch a fit, but | think 
the hassle of conversion will outweigh the realism 


benefits. 

9. The official name of ORIA for government purposes, 
adopted after the 1979 Iranian revolution. Not often used 
by members of the Organization. 

10. Researcher, Administrator, Agent, Operative, what 
have you. Think outside the box; just make it believable 
for your purposes. 

11. Should be a specific individual. The Office of the 
Director is "JIBRIL"; the Director himself is "JIBRIL 
ACTUAL". Use Islamic hagiography and mythology to 
denote a higher-ranking officer in the Organization. All 
field operatives will be identified by codenames anyway 
("BIJHAN", "IBN RUSHD", etc.), so that's not a 
challenge. Just keep in mind who the IC intended 
recipient of the document is when writing. 

12. Should provide some hint to why it's being written in 
particular. Can be vague (UPDATE WITH RE: PROJECT 
XXX) or specific (REQUEST FOR REINFORCEMENTS 
IN AREA XX). 

13. Read this as "When reading this, pleaserefer to ___ 
You should probably mention the documents in question 
in the memorandum somewhere. Project # will usually be 
the same as the project number for this document, 
though you can refer to other projects if they're relevant 
here. Sorry for the goofy use of whitetext-Arabic-spacing 
in the source text here; it was the best way to create the 
visual effect | was looking for. 

14. "Documents or items enclosed with this 
communication.” Similar to Addenda. You may or may 
not discuss what these enclosed items are, but their 
inclusion should suggest something to the IRL reader 
about the nature of the author's request. Items below are 
examples only. 

15. You can separate the document into sections as you 
see fit. In the original document, the author included two 
requests at the top and then the rest of the document 
was summaries of the phenomenon's current status. 
Your document may or may not need this feature.
