Mothers will generally continue to breastfeed the SCP-2254-1 
instances (usually two or three are born at a time) until they either 
expire, typically from severe malnutrition or cardiac arrest, or reach 
maturity. In the event of their mothers' death, SCP-2254-1 instances 
will consume the corpse and then disappear into any available 
nearby sheltered area, including abandoned buildings, forests, 
scrapyards, etc. Uncontained SCP-2254-1 instances are believed to 
be the cause of no fewer than thirty reported sexually explicit deaths 
over the last fifteen years. 


Addendum 2254.1: Discovery 


SCP-2254 was discovered after an amateur photographer from Fort 
Payne, Alabama, accidentally captured footage of SCP-2254 
through an infrared camera lens. Foundation assets quickly secured 
a perimeter around the town, after which a four month period of 
research and investigation began. It was determined that SCP-2254 


was not containable by typical methods, and after SCP-2254 was 
followed to Birmingham, Alabama to follow a local of the town who 
had recently moved to the city, programs were implemented to 
discourage movement of affected persons out of Fallon. More 
information about this can be found in Addendum 2254.2. 


Addendum 2254.2: Black Tuesday Protocol 


The Black Tuesday Protocol was established to purposefully and 
effectively depress the local economy of Fallon, Alabama, in order to 
retain the local population and control exposure to SCP-2254. The 
Black Tuesday Protocol is built on five core tenants: 


1. Reduce spending at the state level to local schools and other 
educational programs 

2. Reduce exposure to media that glamorizes or glorifies urban 
living 

. Increase exposure to heroin and other opiates 

. Decrease the price of alcohol and tobacco 

. Enforce a "family first" doctrine founded on evangelical 
Christianity that prioritizes a family structure wherein older 
members of the family are relied upon for child care while 
younger members are free to continue procreation. 


of Ow 


The Black Tuesday Protocol also dictates the ongoing treatment of 
five women from Fallon who no longer live within the town and who 
are visited occasionally by SCP-2254. All of these women, ages 
16-29, are being dosed through their water supply with the 
aforementioned mix of mifepristone and prostaglandin to inhibit 
pregnancy. They are unconscious of this treatment, and while their 
inability to conceive children has taken a marked toll on their mental 
health the protocol has significantly diminished their odds to 
conceive an SCP-2254-1 instance, and has reduced the number of 
birthed instances outside of Fallon to zero. 


Addendum 2254.3: Interview 


The following is an interview by Agent Lamiere, posing as an 

investigative journalist, and a local woman named Kate Barnett. Mrs. 
Barnett was, notably, twice the subject of anomalous conception due 
to SCP-2254's influence, the first of which resulted in the birth of two 


SCP-2254-1 instances and the second of which was caught and 
terminated as a result of current containment measures. 


[BEGIN LOG] 


Agent Lamiere: (Pauses) ...alright, we're recording. 
Thanks for taking the time to sit with me, Ms...? 


Mrs. Barnett: Oh, that's Kate. Kate Barnett. But my 
maiden name is Kate Forrest. 


Agent Lamiere: Perfect, perfect. So when | called you 
on the phone, | had asked about some things that had 
come up in your medical history. 


Mrs. Barnett: You talking about my babies. 


Agent Lamiere: Yes. How many kids did you say you 
had? 


Mrs. Barnett: Well, there's Daniel5, and Bub®, and the 
twins’, then baby June who passed3. | was pregnant 
with another but it didn't make it neither9. 


Agent Lamiere: Yeah, that's perfect. Can you tell me 
about anything unusual you may have noticed with the 
twins? Something strange about how they were 
conceived, | mean. 


Mrs. Barnett: You mean ‘bout their daddy? He's a good- 
for-nothing. We had one stupid drunk night then | got 
knocked up and he ran off!9. Didn't want nothing to do 
with them. Would've been lost if it weren't for Jack. 


Agent Lamiere: Jack? 


Mrs. Barnett: Yeah. Jack's bout as much daddy as 
they've had. It's good, too, since he's a damn sight better 
father than Mason ever would've been. 


Agent Lamiere: Who's Jack? 


Extremely 
intelligent. 
Capable of 
imitating 
human voices 
and 
reproducing 
music. 


« SCP-256 | SCP-257 | SCP-258 » 


Mrs. Barnett: He's- (hesitates) you ever seen something 
in a dream, and then later you seen it in real life and you 
just know it's the same? That's Jack. He come to me the 
night Mason got me knocked up, and he's so pretty with 
that blond hair and his eyes. He knows how to treat a 
woman right. | told him that Mason had left and that | 
think he had got me pregnant, and Jack said not to worry 
about it. That he'd be there to take care of things. 


Agent Lamiere: How did you know you were pregnant? 


Mrs. Barnett: Oh, that's just mother's intuition. 
Sometimes you just know. And | knew, and Jack knew 
too. But he told me everything was going to be alright, 
and that he'd take care of my babies. 


Agent Lamiere: | see. How long have you known Jack? 


Mrs. Barnett: Well... ever since | was little, | guess. 
Maybe since when | was in the 9th grade, when Daniel 
was born. Jack was there then. He didn't say much then, 
just that | was his special girl and that he was gonna be 
around for a while. He wasn't around much when Dan 
was growing up, but he was when the twins were born 
and then again when | had the miscarriage. God- 
(sniffles) he was so sad about that. | cried and cried and 
he just held my hand and said "There there, that's alright. 
You're still my special girl". 


Agent Lamiere: Are you the only person who knows 
Jack? 


Mrs. Barnett: Mmmmmm... | don't think so. | think just 
about all girls around here know Jack. He's just so 
supportive, you know? Like, it's like he knows what it's 
like to want to be a mother, and he's just there to make it 
alright. To some of them, though, you know, he's just 
Jack, but... (laughs) between you and me, he's my Jack. 


Agent Lamiere: | see. Anything else you have to add? 


Mrs. Barnett: | don't think so. (Pauses) Hey, you seem 
to know all about this. You ever seen Jack's brothers? 


Agent Lamiere: Brothers? 


Mrs. Barnett: Yeah. | think they're all named Jack, 
they're just each sort of different. Jack is scared of them. 
| am too, but | ain't never seen em. Just the way he talks 
about them, you know they're bad. 


Agent Lamiere: Bad? Bad how? 


Mrs. Barnett: | don't know. | just know that Jack is 
always smilin', except when he talks about his brothers. 
Then he's not smilin’ much at all.

Footnotes 

1. As not all pregnancies resulting from SCP-2254's involvement are 
anomalous. 

2. Two legs appear to protrude from the upper back, while another 
two protrude from the lower back, just above the tailbone, forcing 
SCP-2254 to walk in an awkward scuttling motion. 

3. In place of what would seem to be male genitalia is a seeping 
mass of pustulous lesions, capable of extending out from the main 
body of the entity. The function of this behaviour is unknown; 
SCP-2254's "genitals" appear to be otherwise ineffective and serve 
to do little more than impede its progress as it moves. 

4. Notably, arousal as a result of SCP-2254 influence is not 
accompanied by elevated hormonal levels, leading researchers to 
believe this state is wholly fabricated by SCP-2254's influence and 
not the product of actual biological responses. 

5. Non-anomalous child, still living in Fallon, aged 26. 

6. Non-anomalous child, lives with his father out of state, aged 19. 
7. Two SCP-2254-1 instances, both of which reached full maturity 
and were presumed destroyed after Mobile Task Force Alpha-44 
"Big Game Hunters" raided an 2254-1 nest, killing several of the 
instances. 

8. Non-anomalous infant, died due to complications from SIDS. 

9. SCP-2254-1 instance that was terminated as a result of 


containment protocols. 
10. The father in question is Mason Banks, a welder who lives three 
doors down from Mrs. Barnett.

SCP-2255: The Most Interesting Rainstorm in the 
World 


Item #: SCP-2255 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2255’s current residence 
is a Foundation-owned island north of the Phoenix Islands group in 
the Pacific Ocean. A research base has been established on the 
island’s south shore to monitor and report on SCP-2255’s activity. At 
least one Level-3 and three Level-2 personnel are to occupy the 
base at all times and maintain communication with the nearest 
Foundation containment site. All research staff assigned to 
SCP-2255 must have background in biology (if possible, botany 
specifically) or psychology. 


A population of twenty D-Class and five Foundation security officers 
is to be stationed on the island in designated living areas, and given 
daily tasks to keep the community functioning. To maintain the guise 
of dedicated worship of SCP-2255’s apparent creator, dried hibiscus 
and hibiscus tea are to be consumed regularly in SCP-2255’s 
presence, and D-Class are to ensure that the prepared shrine for 
SCP-2255 is given five freshly-picked flowers each day at sunrise. 
D-Class personnel are to refrain from engaging in conversation with 
SCP-2255; any discussion with the anomaly is to be carried out by 
Foundation researchers. Personnel interacting with SCP-2255 are to 
adopt a tone of respect to ensure its continued cooperation. 


Each month a survey of the island’s hibiscus population is to be 
done; resources will be distributed for replenishment should the 
flower count be observed depleted. 


Description: SCP-2255 is a localized weather phenomenon that 
takes the shape of a cumulus humilis cloud measuring roughly three 
meters at longest. SCP-2255 is sapient and capable of speech, 
generally speaking English in a low-pitched male voice. It has 


claimed to be a creation and an envoy of a flower goddess (See 
Addendum SCP-2255-2). 


SCP-2255’s average altitude ranges from five to twenty meters, 
though during cloudy or overcast days it tends to hover close to the 
island’s trees (See Addendum SCP-2255-3). Though SCP-2255 is 
able to move independently, its maximum observed speed is 15 km/ 
h. Despite its claims of capacity for divine wrath, SCP-2255 has yet 
to cause harm to any human being. 


SCP-2255’s presence is accompanied by a strong aroma, often 
compared to that of floral perfume. SCP-2255 has additionally 
exhibited instances of anomalous precipitation, including: 


* raining a concentrated fructose and water solution 

* “snowing” frost-covered hibiscus petals 

* hailing princess-cut diamonds (ranging from 1 to 2 cm in 
diameter) 


Addendum SCP-2255-1: SCP-2255 was initially discovered near 
the Hawaiian Islands, attempting to gather followers from the local 
population by reciting popular advertising slogans used by various 
commercial companies. Foundation operatives intervened and 
administered amnestics to those who came into contact with 
SCP-2255, and persuaded it (using the lure of an existing devout 
population) to relocate. SCP-2255’s journey to its current location 
was monitored by Foundation aircraft and research personnel were 
dispatched to the island prior to SCP-2255’s departure. 


Addendum SCP-2255-2: SCP-2255 has, as of // _ , taken to 
remaining close to the shrine constructed to its alleged deity. As the 
entity had habitually “patrolled” the island prior to this time, an 
interview was conducted to determine the change in behavior. 


Interview Log SCP-2255- - 


Dr. Kiryu ts sitting on a large stone with recording 
equipment set up next to him. SCP-2255 hovers 
overhead roughly 3 meters from the ground, occasionally 
rising and returning to its average altitude. 


Dr. Kiryu: Thank you for meeting with me, emissary of 
the vibrant flower goddess. Will you please tell me why 
you remain exclusively in the company of the shrine? 


SCP-2255: My creator, master of the sky water and sea 
flowers, is weary. And | am not at my full strength when | 
am far from the offerings given to her. 


Dr. Kiryu: Do tell. There are no songs yet about the true 
extent of your power. 


SCP-2255: My might stems from my goddess. She is 
beauty incarnate and worthy of adulation. Should she 
wish it, my rain will flood your cities and my frost will 
decimate your fragile blossoms. 


Dr. Kiryu: And she has told you the depth of her full 
powers? 


SCP-2255: [pause] No, but she has seen so many of 
your so-called “ads” and created me, thus her knowledge 
must be unparalleled and her powers infinite. She 
deserves more praise. 


Dr. Kiryu: The people have noticed that you rain sugar 
water. Is this a power of your goddess? 


SCP-2255: | don’t always rain wine, you see. 


Dr. Kiryu: Ah, indeed. So you are bestowed these 
powers to act as your lady’s messenger? 


SCP-2255: My lady was dissatisfied with her standing, 
as her four ostentatious older sisters were held in higher 
regard than her loveliness despite their various 
shortcomings. She would show them her worth through 
me. 


Dr. Kiryu: It is unfortunate, for her to be treated that 
way. Did she create you to show man as well what she 
was capable of? 


SCP-2255: Kokio, deity of vibrant flowers, beauty 
unparalleled, studied the persuasive techniques of man 
and used the knowledge to shape me into what | have 
now become, to act as her emissary and speak to her 
worshippers in her stead. She in her generosity thinks of 
those who follow her and endeavors to communicate in a 
familiar manner. 


Dr. Kiryu: If | may ask, cloud nimbus of the flower 
goddess, what are you exactly? 


SCP-2255: | may not be on a horse or a boat, but | am 
the most interesting rainstorm in the world. 


Addendum SCP-2255-3: When questioned regarding its habit of 
descending to lower altitudes when there were other clouds visible 
in the sky, SCP-2255 replied that it “was not interested in inciting 
undue ire” should the other clouds notice its presence. SCP-2255 
further insisted vehemently and preemptively that it was “not hiding 
from anyone who may challenge the goddess”. 


Addendum SCP-2255-4: On // , SCP-2255 left its resting place 
at the shrine and began circling the perimeter of the island, loudly 
chanting several slogan-like phrases including “Hail Kokio! She’s the 
Kokio-est!”, “Trust in the flower goddess: just do it”, and “got 
hibiscus?” while depositing large volumes of granulated sugar as it 
passed. After 5 hours of this behavior, SCP-2255 returned to the 
shrine and remained stationary until the next day. similar incidents 
have occurred since the initial incident, with SCP-2255 exclaiming 
different slogans each time.

SCP-2256: Very Tall Things 


Item #: SCP-2256 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: Information about SCP-2256 is 
subject to a gradual antimemetic corrosion effect. Corrosion occurs 
at differing rates depending on the level of detail/accuracy in the 
information and the physical complexity of the storage medium. In- 
depth academic papers, photographs, and information stored 
electronically decay rapidly; broad descriptions, pencil sketches and 
paperwork decay slowly. 


Therefore, this electronic database entry should describe SCP-2256 
only in broad terms. Detailed information about SCP-2256's 
appearance, theorised evolutionary ancestry, biology, diet, 
behaviour, vocalisations, lifecycle, intelligence, ecological role and 
cultural significance should be stored in hard copy at Site 19, vault 
1-053. The rate of corrosion in both data sources should be 
monitored carefully, although at present no technique is known for 
halting or undoing such corrosion.
