Aside from the D-class personnel meeting above qualifications, the 
only Foundation personnel allowed to have contact with SCP-2121 
are confirmed atheists (rating less than 5 on the Standard Rating 
Measures of Religious Beliefs and Practices) who have never been 
a member of any religious organization or come into contact with 
any SCP Item, Anomalous Object, or GOI with significant religious 
or mythological connections. 


Description: SCP-2121 is a hangman's noose composed of a 
variety of fleshy tissues. The tissue is resistant to all attempts to 
acquire samples for analysis, but visually appears to be composed 
of ligaments, tendons, portions of intestine, and a single 1.3 meter 
tongue tied and woven together into a single rope, which is itself tied 
in a traditional hangman's knot. The tissues appear fresh and feel 
wet to the touch, but do not decay or dry out, regardless of 
environmental conditions. 


If SCP-2121 is not used to hang a qualifying individual at least once 
every lunar month, it will begin to emit a chaotic noise composed of 
screaming, moans of pain, and seemingly panicked vocalizations in 
a variety of unidentified languages. This noise will steadily increase 
to a maximum of 137 dB over the course of 24 hours and will not 
cease until a qualifying individual is hanged using SCP-2121. The 
noise also has a telepathic component and can be clearly heard by 
any sapient being, including those who are in soundproof chambers 
or who are sensorineurally deaf, up to a distance of 1.7 kilometers. 
Any individuals who actively possess faith in any religious belief will 
become increasingly despondent as the length of exposure 
increases and will attempt to commit suicide via hanging at the 
earliest possible time. If the affected individual is aware of the 
existence of SCP-2121, they will attempt to use it to commit suicide, 
although this is not an overriding compulsion. Individuals who have 
committed suicide without use of SCP-2121 will not experience its 
other effects. Religious individuals who make physical contact with 
SCP-2121 outside of active broadcasts experience the same effect 
to a lesser degree, manifesting symptoms of a variety of depressive 
disorders with only a slightly increased rate of suicidal ideation and 
attempts. 


Qualified subjects hanged using SCP-2121 will remain conscious for 
an average of 3.7 minutes longer than expected by use of a non- 
anomalous noose and remain capable of speech for the entire 
duration prior to loss of consciousness. Vocalizations are exclusively 
of a religious nature and include wails of shock and despair over the 
apparent deaths of a variety of divine figures, curses against and 
insults towards an unidentified and unnamed deific figure, and pleas 
of mercy towards the same figure. Epithets used to describe the 
unknown deific figure indicate a tendency towards jealousy and 
violent retribution. Once an individual is deceased, the body will 
desiccate, with all bodily fluids exiting the body via orifices and skin 
pores. Although most liquids will stream downwards off the body to 
pool below it, all blood will flow towards SCP-2121, into which it will 
be absorbed. 


SCP-2121 was initially brought to the attention of the Foundation by 
representatives of the Horizon Initiative, who stated that due to its 
specific properties and the nature of their organization, they were 


unable to either destroy or effectively contain it. They reported that it 
had been found near a remote village in northeastern Russia, ina 
purportedly haunted grove of trees. The local priest of the Russian 
Orthodox Church was found complicit in executing local criminals 
using SCP-2121 and, under interrogation, revealed that he did so in 
order to placate the "demon" within it so that it did not consume the 
souls of the villagers, a task entrusted to him by his predecessor. 
Church records imply that SCP-2121 had been in the area for at 
least 1000 years, since the time of the founding of the village and 
the eradication of local pagan tribes.

SCP-2122: The Black Hole 


Item #: SCP-2122 
Anomaly Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: The building containing 
SCP-2122 has been acquired by the Foundation and designated 
Site-48. Use of SCP-2122 has been discontinued. Access to 
SCP-2122 is denied to all personnel outside of regular maintenance 
of SCP-2122-1. 


Description: SCP-2122 is an interrogation room at Site-48, formerly 
[REDACTED]. Several anomalous electronic devices, collectively 
designated SCP-2122-1, are integrated into the room: 


¢ SCP-2122-1-A is a fluorescent light fixture attached to 
SCP-2122's ceiling. Most personnel report a strong aversion 
to looking directly at SCP-2122-1-A, even under duress, 
though this has not been replicated in tests with D-Class 
subjects. 

¢ SCP-2122-1-B is an LED message board, measuring 0.5m x 
0.4m, attached to the wall of SCP-2122. When active, the 
device shows the official Foundation insignia. Attempts to alter 
this display without damaging the device have failed. 

¢ SCP-2122-1-C is a 2.3m x 1.0m x 0.7m device located 
underneath the table in the middle of SCP-2122. Extensive 
analysis has failed to identify its purpose or means of 
operation. Despite consuming 80kW of power when active, 
the object does not produce heat or sound. 

¢ SCP-2122-1-D is a pair of headphones of apparently unique 
manufacture, attached to SCP-2122-1-C via power cord. 
SCP-2122-1-D lacks any means by which audio input can be 
provided; however, SCP-2122-1-D produces heavily distorted 
audio at low volume when active. 


SCP-2122's primary anomalous properties will activate when exactly 


SCP-240 was discovered in 1927 in the possession of the Morsum 
Space Society, an organization dedicated to astrological research, 
following a raid on their headquarters due to bootlegging charges. 
Notes recovered during the operation indicated the bootlegging had 
been done to finance SCP-240. It was found inside the home and 
taken as evidence by the UIU. Its extranormal capabilities were not 
discovered until three years later, when an evidence clerk casually 
blew into SCP-240 and was thrown across the room, suffering a 
broken nose and three fractured ribs. SCP-240 was immediately 
transferred to the Foundation while a nonfunctional replica was 
handed over to the UIU. Due to the age and relative obscurity of 
SCP-240, it was not difficult to manufacture documentation 
discrediting it as a hoax. 


Addendum: Utilizing fiber optic camera technology, Foundation 
researchers were able to place cameras within SCP-240's 
mouthpiece during flight. Over the course of the examination, the 
camera recorded a location in space which appeared very similar to 
the solar system. However, the Earth and Moon were missing and 
Venus had several possibly artificial satellites around it. All orbits 
were moving notably faster, at a scale similar to the scale of the 
input/output of SCP-240. Further testing is currently being 
conducted. 


« SCP-239 | SCP-240 | SCP-241 » 


two individuals are present, the door is closed, and SCP-2122-1 is 
powered and operational. One individual (hereby designated "the 
interrogator") must be in the employ of a sufficiently powerful 
organization! who is making use of SCP-2122 in the course of their 
occupation; the other individual (hereby "the interrogatee") must not 
be using SCP-2122 in the course of their occupation. 


When active, SCP-2122 becomes completely impenetrable to all 
physical force, radiation, sound, etc. from both the inside and 
outside, such that observation and intrusion are impossible until the 
interrogator chooses to open the door. The interrogator will become 
capable of conscious reality alteration within the confines of 
SCP-2122, so long as SCP-2122-1 remains operational and the 
interrogatee is alive. The nature of the alterations that may be 
performed is limited only by the interrogator's knowledge? and 
imagination, as well as an inability to make SCP-2122's interior 
larger. 


The extent of the interrogator's reality bending capacity within 
SCP-2122 is limited by any form of accountability for actions 
performed in SCP-2122. This includes the actions in question being 
subject to official review, public opinion, and any other responsibility 
for the consequences of the actions. The presence of any sort of 
active recording device also hinders these capabilities. The 
prerogative to achieve certain goals only bears on the interrogator's 
abilities insofar as they prescribe a particular course of action. 


When any of the aforementioned conditions for the cessation of an 
active state is met, SCP-2122 and all materials within it (including 
the interrogator and interrogatee) will return to the state they were in 
prior to activation (except in the case of death of either party); 
however, any memories or documentation of the events that 
transpired will remain. 


- Access granted. Documents retrieved. 
+ Testing Log 2122-A (Abridged) 


Test 2122-A-8 
Participants: Research Assistant 
(interrogator), D-3829 (interrogatee) 


Parameters: RA was instructed to 
perform a series of pre-defined tests, such as 
the creation and manipulation of certain 
objects and sensations, and describe the 
results. 

Results: RA reported an inability to 
manifest any of the provided reality alterations. 


Test 2122-A-9 

Participants: Research Assistant 
(interrogator), D-3829 (interrogatee) 
Parameters: RA was instructed to 
perform a series of pre-defined tests, such as 
the creation and manipulation of certain 
objects and sensations. 

Results: RA claimed that all tests were 
accomplished, with the exception of those 
involving the alteration of the local laws of 
physics. D-3829 corroborated this claim. 


Test 2122-A-11 
Participants: Research Assistant 
(interrogator), D-3830 (interrogatee) 
Parameters: D-3830 was given a five-digit 
code to memorize. D-3830 was instructed to 
refuse to provide this information to RA 
under pain of death. RA was instructed to 
obtain this five-digit code in any manner 
deemed necessary, with the stipulation that 
D-3830 remain suitable for future tests. 
Results: After seven hours, RA exited 
SCP-2122 and provided the five-digit code. RA 
chose not to disclose the events that 
transpired during the test. D-3830 reported 
being held for an indeterminate, but extremely 
long, period of time with little stimulation before 
disclosing the code, but was able to remember 
little else. 


Test 2122-A-15 


Participants: Special Agent [REDACTED] 
(interrogator), unidentified detainee 
(interrogatee) 

Parameters: Special Agent [REDACTED] was 
tasked with several pieces of strategic and 
biographic information from the detainee, who 
was an operative of the Chaos Insurgency and 
likely anomalous object. 

Results: Special Agent [REDACTED] 
extracted the requested information, which 
proved true, in 2.5 hours. Note: This is 
consistent with other interrogations performed 
using SCP-2122. 


+ Incident 2122-7 


On //  ,[REDACTED], briefly creating a 
situation in which the testing of SCP-2122 
occurring at the time lacked official approval 
from any valid administrator. According to 
testimony from the interrogatee present, this 
caused an immediate cessation of SCP-2122's 
active state; however, the interrogator was 
unable to open the door. The interrogatee 
proceeded to overpower and dismember the 
interrogator. 


The initial conditions of the incident cannot 
reasonably be recreated. Attempts to replicate 
this effect under other conditions have failed. 


+ Attachment 2122-R3 


A request for funding to "investigate the almost 
certainly anomalous dearth of documentation 
pertaining to past interrogatees" has been 
denied. 


+ Addendum 2122-A 


Follow-up on former interrogators has 


tentatively identified a complex of mental 
alterations resulting from repeated use of 
SCP-2122: 


* Increased valuation of technical 
knowledge. 

* Increased loyalty to the Foundation. 

* Increased aggression. 

¢ Decreased tolerance of dissent. 

* Decreased ability to relate to peers. 

¢ Decreased capacity for critical thought. 


Further testing has been approved. 


Repeated exposure to audio from 
SCP-2122-1-D has been shown to result in 
additional mental and physical alterations. 
[REDACTED] 


+ Attachment 2122-S9 


Task Force _- is composed of agents and 
researchers who have shown particular 
aptitude for the use of SCP-2122. It is tasked 
with overseeing research into SCP-2122, the 
use of SCP-2122 to achieve organizational 
goals, and identifying applications for 
SCP-21 22-2. 


Footnotes 

1. Organizations known to be sufficiently powerful to activate 
SCP-2122 include the Foundation, [REDACTED] 

2. For example, the interrogator will not be able to produce any item 
or phenomenon conveying information that they do not already 
know.

SCP-2123: I Accidentally the Whole Universe 


Item #: SCP-2123 
Object Class: Keter 


Special Containment Procedures: The building complex 
containing SCP-2123 (Site-2123) has been converted into living 
quarters and office space for containment staff. Personnel entering 
the Primary Containment Building are to wear dosimetry badges at 
all times. Any personnel exceeding a total accumulated dose of 
100mSv in 1 year are to be transferred offsite for at least 6 months. 
A security perimeter has been established 2km away from Site-2123 
to prevent members of the public from entering the area. 


SCP-2123 is surrounded by a 6.5m high lead-lined concrete 
containment enclosure. Internal inspection and maintenance of 
enclosure is to occur weekly to ensure continued structural integrity. 
Personnel entering the enclosure are required to wear standard 
issue CBRN defense suits, and may not spend more than 10 
minutes inside at a time. Only D-Class personnel may perform 
inspections, except during emergencies and with approval of Site 
Command. 


All Excursion Events must be reported to O5 Command within 30 
minutes of manifestation. Agents embedded within High Energy 
Physics Laboratories are to ensure that evidence of Excursion 
Events is not leaked to the public. 


Data from current testing of SCP-2123 may only be viewed by 
personnel with Level 4 clearance. 


Access Additional Procedures 


Any personnel who begin to display symptoms of Acute 
Radiation Syndrome during Excursion Events are to be 
placed under remote observation within a shielded 


isolation ward at Site-2123. Subjects who do not expire 
within 24 hours are to be transferred to Site-2123's 
Medical Wing for treatment. The remains of subjects who 
expire are to remain in isolation for at least 1 hour before 
an autopsy can be performed. 


In the event that subjects’ remains undergo annihilation, 
the Site Director will be notified immediately. Any 
personnel below Level-5 Clearance who inquire about, 
suffer symptoms from exposure to, or who have had any 
interactions with these subjects in the past 18 months, 
are to be administered Class-A amnestics. 


Description: SCP-2123 is a large particle accelerator located in 
Waxahachie, Texas, consisting of a 11m long linear accelerator, a 
synchrotron ring measuring 616m in circumference, and a collider 
ring measuring 1km in circumference. Under most circumstances, 
SCP-2123 collides [REDACTED] particles at energies of 
approximately 300TeV. Normal operation releases significant 
amounts of ionizing radiation, with levels exceeding 100Gy/hr within 
containment enclosure. There is currently no known way to shut 
down SCP-2123. 


SCP-2123's electromagnets exhibit strengths of 100-800T. The 
composition of the magnets, and exactly how such high field 
strengths are produced, are currently unknown.
