A feeder is to remain in place outside Site 40 for purposes of testing 
SCP-1306. Instances of SCP-1306-1 are to be observed and all 
information logged. Any attempts to catch instances of SCP-1306-1 
are forbidden. 


Description: SCP-1306 is a bird food recipe calling for equal parts 
(by weight) sunflower seeds, peanut butter, and four ingredients not 
commonly found in bird food, two of which are normally poisonous to 
birds. Despite its ingredients, birds fed SCP-1306 do not show any 
signs of illness from consuming it, although SCP-1306 alone is not 
sufficient to meet the dietary needs of any bird. 


When SCP-1306 is prepared and placed in an appropriate feeder 
outdoors, a variety of birds will arrive at a rate of approximately two 
birds per hour and consume a quantity of SCP-1306. This behavior 


will continue until all of the prepared SCP-1306 is consumed. These 
birds, collectively SCP-1306-1, will appear from the nearest 
unobserved area. Instances of SCP-1306-1 generally display 
properties that would qualify them for special containment 
procedures under other circumstances, including significant 
deviations from typical avian anatomy or behavior. 


It is hypothesized that SCP-1306-1 do not exist prior to their 
appearance — tests have shown them capable of emerging from 
closed, empty containers. No instance of SCP-1306-1 has ever 
been caught. Any attempts made to contain them have resulted in 
failure. Reasons for failure have included unexpected displays of 
strength or speed from the instance, and equipment failure. 


After consuming a small amount of SCP-1306 (relative to their body 
size), instances of SCP-1306-1 will retreat to the nearest 
unobserved area. There is currently no evidence indicating that 
SCP-1306-1 exist after this. It is thus considered safe to test 
SCP-1306 without concern that instances of SCP-1306-1 will 
escape into the wild. 


Observation Log 1306-81-Gamma: A sample of SCP-1306 was 
placed in a feeder outside Site-40 approximately 0.3 meters off the 
ground. The following information was collected between the hours 
of 14:21 and 19:30 on April 9, 1943. The feeder was refilled with 
SCP-1306 hourly.

SCP-1307: The Person Sharpener 


Item #: SCP-1307 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1307 is to be kept in a 
standard hazardous-object containment storage at Site-19. No 
pencils shall be stored or brought within 6 metres of the object. 
Under no circumstances outside of testing should a pencil be placed 
in the hole on the front of SCP-1307, unplugged or otherwise. 


Description: SCP-1307 is a standard black electric sharpener with 
a standard size receiving hole and a loading bay underneath 
designed to catch pencil shavings. On its back is a standard electric 
cord which appears to be functionless; SCP-1307 will still activate 
whether or not it is unplugged. 


SCP-1307 is activated in a similar manner to a conventional electric 
pencil sharpener, by inserting a standard sized pencil into the hole 
on the front. The effect will not be activated by pens, pencil-shaped 
steel rods, or [REDACTED]. Note that this effect wil/ be activated by 
mechanical pencils. 


Upon an individual inserting a pencil into SCP-1307, the subject will 
find themselves unable to remove their hands from the pencil. All 
attempts to pry the hand from the pencil will fail, and the only way to 
remove the individual from contact is amputation of the hand. While 
SCP-1307 is active, it adheres itself to the surface on which it is 
located and will not move. Additionally, the pencil becomes 
completely unbreakable. Once the pencil has sharpened down to 
the point where the individual's hand is located, SCP-1307 will 
continue to draw the pencil in, enlarging the hole as far as needed to 
take in the hand of the subject. As the subject's hand is drawn in, it 
is "sharpened" along with the pencil, shredding the limb in the 
process. 


SCP-1307, through the course of several tests, has demonstrated 
the ability to tear through a full human body in the course of about 4 
hours. Despite severe blood loss, subjects are kept alive until the 
brain is destroyed by SCP-1307, at which point the subject's vital 
functions cease. SCP-1307 then continues the take in the rest of the 
body and shred the entirety of the corpse. Afterwards, the only blood 
that is left in the area is any that did not land in the vicinity of 
SCP-1307. Any blood spilled on, inside, or near SCP-1307 
seemingly vanishes, along with the rest of the subject's body. 
Attempts to send trackers through with the subject have proven 
fruitless, as the trackers are shredded along with the individual. 


SCP-1307 was recovered at Elementary in , Colorado.

SCP-1308: Hungarian Floater 


Item #: SCP-1308 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1308 is to be held ina 
modified standard enclosure on Bio Research Site-21, such that the 
door mechanism, the main ventilation mechanism, and any 
apertures wider than 25 mm in two perpendicular directions are to 
be covered with a steel mesh coated with a tin layer at least 

0.08 mm thick. 


Any personnel entering the enclosure are to wear Level B 
Hazardous Materials protective equipment, modified by attaching 
strips of tin foil no smaller than 100 X 25 mm to the surface, no 
further than 50 mm apart. To ensure personal safety in case of 
damage to the suit, a layer of tin foil protecting the head and neck is 
to be worn under specified protective clothing while inside the 
enclosure, or during times of significant risk of an SCP-1308 
containment breach. 


Note: Aluminium foil is not an acceptable substitute for tin in this 
case. - Researcher Eisenberg 


All personnel entering the enclosure are to be equipped with a 
standard-issue electroshock weapon. Personnel are to be reminded 
that due to lack of discernible vital organs, gunfire is of limited 
effectiveness against instances of SCP-1308. For longer 
incapacitation for capture or research, portable pressurized sprayer 
units with chloroform solution are to be used; these are to be issued 
to any Level 1 personnel with SCP-1308 clearance that have 
undergone appropriate training. 


The enclosure of SCP-1308 is to be kept at a temperature of 28 
degrees Celsius, and a relative humidity of 47%. Once per ten days, 
one human cadaver within 4 hours of exitus one live pig of mass 


cca. 50 kg per specimen is to be introduced into SCP-1308's 
enclosure. Two days after each feeding, the cell is to be cleaned of 
residue. No more than three instances of SCP-1308 are to be stored 
in a single enclosure. 


Newly captured SCP-1308 specimens are to be examined for 
deviations in body makeup and classified as per Document-1308-C, 
implanted with a positioning and identification chip and internated in 
an enclosure as appropriate. 


Description: SCP-1308 refers to several instances of an organism 
resembling an ambulatory sheet of human skin of cca. 1 x 3 m size,! 
capable of flotation through currently unknown means.2 The upper 
surface of SCP-1308 specimens resembles human skin, including 
features such as body hair, birthmarks and occasional patches of 
keratin. The lower surface is smooth, and contains a number of 
modified sweat glands, capable of excretion of SCP-1308-1, a 
translucent yellow liquid of composition resembling blood plasma. 


Below the skin, SCP-1308 contains two layers of perpendicularly 
oriented muscular fibers, an adipose layer, and occasional 
segments of reinforcing cartilage. The tissues of SCP-1308 contain 
a large number of capillaries leading from the surfaces, apparently 
responsible for gas exchange, towards the central mass - the blood 
circulation is ensured by means of a pattern of involuntary muscle 
contractions. Large scale muscular contractions are used as a 
means of propulsion, and the musculature of SCP-1308 has been 
shown capable of exerting forces upwards of 600 N. SCP-1308 has 
a decentralized nervous system composed of a grid of ganglia cca. 
5 mm diameter, irregularly located with a density of cca. 25 per sq. 
m, connected by axon strands. 


DNA testing on cells harvested from SCP-1308 instances confirms 
them to be human in origin. 


SCP-1308 appears to be sentient, and seems to prefer secluded 
areas such as abandoned buildings, the vicinity of waste disposal 
facilities, or maintenance facilities, however a single specimen 
[REDACTED]. When inactive, SCP-1308 will usually adhere to a 
wall or another structure, seemingly preferring heights of ~2.5 m and 
above. 


Through specific patterns of muscular contractions, combined with 
the folding of its body, SCP-1308 is capable of emitting melodic 
sounds, as well as replicating sounds from the environment 
(including human speech) with varying intensity.3 This property 
plays a role in luring potential victims; however SCP-1308 
specimens tend to vocalise at apparently random times, even during 
or after feeding. 


If ahuman being approaches an SCP-1308 instance, it will attempt 
to envelop and restrain them, and force a significant part of its 
surface under their clothing, such that it is in contact with bare skin. 
Subsequently the glands on the surface of SCP-1308 will excrete 
SCP-1308-1. 


SCP-1308-1 rapidly penetrates human skin, and within three 
minutes of application, causes permanent dissociation of 
intercellular bonds in animal tissues up to a depth of cca. 1 mm.#. 
Once this has taken place, SCP-1308 will proceed to slowly absorb 
the tissue and reintegrate it into its body mass through unknown 
means, a process which has been observed to take between 3-7 
hours. 


Once the absorption is complete, SCP-1308 will release its victim 
and float away. Archival records and testing have shown encounters 
with SCP-1308 to have a survival rate of roughly 80%, out of which 
most deaths were caused by secondary infections following large- 
scale skin loss, suffocation or circulatory failure due to constriction, 
or shock. Thorough cleaning of the wounds using physiologic 
solution, followed by prophylactic levomycetin treatment have been 
shown to aid recovery. If large-scale areas are affected, skin grafting 
is recommended. 


SCP-1308 instances show intense reluctance of coming into contact 
with metallic tin and certain tin compounds - the cause seems 
related to SCP-1308-1 being an effective catalyst in the process of 
tin oxidation. 


Recovery Log: SCP-1308 first came to attention of the Foundation 
in , Hungary on / /1995, following the hospitalisation of Janos 
B  ,amaintenance employee at the heat plant. Following his 
interview by a hospital psychiatrist, and the unusual nature of his 


injuries, a Foundation liaison interviewed him posing as a Ministry of 
Agriculture special committee worker. (see Addendum 1308-1 for 
interview). A plan of approach was drafted based on his testimony, 
and an instance of SCP-1308 was successfully captured in the 
maintenance tunnels. J.B. was treated with amnestics, and the 
hospital records were altered to record the injury as self-inflicted, 
following a psychotic episode. 

To date, five more instances have been contained. 


Addendum 1308-1: 


Interviewed: Janos B = (Subsequently J.B.), 
maintenance employee of the heat plant. 


Interviewer: Researcher F___, posing as a member of 
special committee of the Hungarian Ministry of 
Agriculture. 


Foreword: J.B. was brought to the state hospital by 
his colleague, BélaB __, who found him in one of the 
maintenance rooms. He was hospitalised immediately 
due to a head injury, extensive loss of skin tissue on his 
back, chest, and right arm, infection, and fever. Upon 
admission, his blood alcohol content was cca. 0.5 
promile. J.B.'s claims of being assaulted by a "skin bed 
sheet" - coupled with the unusual nature of his injuries - 
prompted Foundation investigation.
