It is believed that previous failures to contain you can be attributed 
to a breach of intelligence. During post-operation reviews, it was 
discovered that details for Site-31 Sweep and Memetic 
Incapacitation had been accessed by you before their execution. 
How you managed to consistently find and access these files is still 
under investigation. 


Special Containment Procedures: The following procedures 
documented here are for the benefit of Director of the Foundation's 
Antimemetics Division, O5- and Researcher 


MTF Eta-10 personnel are to be positioned around Site-31 under the 
guise of normal Site-31 researchers. Access to this file is to be 
restricted to five selected terminals at Site-31. Should this file be 
accessed without notice seventy-two hours in advance, Eta-10 


personnel are to block off all physical entrances to the room 
containing the terminal accessing this file. This room is to be 
quarantined, and repurposed as your containment cell. 


These containment procedures are to be written at the end of your 
file, as to give Eta-10 personnel ample time to contain you before 
you understand what has transpired, thus reducing the possibility of 
your escape.

SCP-3394: Brain Scientist 


Item #: SCP-3394 
Object Class: Keter 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3394 is contained within a 
subterranean cell constructed primarily of concrete with fiberglass 
reinforcement. The debris surrounding SCP-3394 is contained within 
a cubic mahogany wood barricade no less than 20cm in thickness, 
constructed using dovetail joints". 


No metal, ice, or paraffin wax is allowed within SCP-3394's 
containment cell. No personnel with detailed knowledge of 
SCP-3394's anomalous properties are allowed within SCP-3394's 
containment cell. No personnel are to approach closer than 2m from 
SCP-3394. All staff entering SCP-3394's containment cell are to 
maintain a threatening mindset and are encouraged to frequently 
picture themselves destroying lumps of brain matter. 


Between 4-36 times per day (determined by random number 
generator) at least one class-D personnel is to enter SCP-3394's 
containment cell and think of threatening and destructive imagery 
directed at SCP-3394 for no less than 5 minutes. 


Description: SCP-3394 is a mass of human brain tissue measuring 
0.2kg. As of 5/17/2018, SCP-3394 is surrounded by roughly 1 metric 
ton of metal debris, 2.1m in diameter. This debris is composed of the 
metallic building components of Dr. Whitehall's office and 
surrounding rooms, compressed into a roughly spherical shape with 
SCP-3394 at the center. The metal shell surrounding SCP-3394 can 
be observed to loudly shift at random intervals as portions of the 
surface are seen to forcefully collapse further inward. This behavior 
declines greatly following periods of threatening thoughts as 
described above. 


SCP-3394 posses the ability to detect certain objects and 


occurrences within its vicinity. While the method of this detection is 
unknown, it appears that SCP-3394 is only able to detect things 
which it has been able to logically deduce the existence of. The 
origin of this logical process and how SCP-3394 is able to maintain it 
are currently unknown. SCP-3394 is currently known to be aware of 
the following: 


* Human thoughts within a 6 6.5m2 radius of 
SCP-3394 


¢ Humans in physical contact with the outer shell of 
SCP-3394. 


Any metal object of greater than 0.5g in mass 
within a 7.8m radius of SCP-3394. 


Accumulations of ice greater than 0.1g in mass 
within a 8.6m radius of SCP-3394. 


¢ Amounts of Paraffin wax as low as 1g in mass 
within an observed 2m radius of SCP-3394 


Additionally, SCP-3394 has displayed the ability to act on any 
physical objects it is aware of with an observed force of up to 345 N/ 
mm? through an unknown means. SCP-3394's effects on human 
thoughts, if any, are not currently known. 


SCP-3394 was first discovered in Dr. Whitehall's office on 6/6/2017 
during investigation of his apparent suicide by handgun. Roughly 5 
minutes after initial discovery, emergency medical staff reported 
experiencing what they described as "a lot of questions, all at once”. 
Questions were described as being non-vocalized in a way affected 
subjects had difficulty describing. Subjects were unable to recall 
many of the questions, but described several as "repeating". 
Reported questions have been paraphrased here: "Where am |?", 
"Who am I?", "How do | get out of here?". Following Site protocol, 
medical staff withdrew from the room until further anomalous effects 
could be determined. 


Less than two minutes following the report of anomalous activity, 
security cameras capture the metal components of Dr. Whitehall's 


office rapidly collapsing into a growing spherical shape around a 
mass of brain matter on the ground. The resultant collapse of the 
westernmost wing of Site-88's research office building exposed 
more metal to SCP-3394's anomalous property, with the resultant 
sphere reaching an estimated mass of greater than 1.2 metric tons 
before no further metal was within its area of effect. 


SCP-3394 was held in temporary containment on location for over 
228 hours until the permanent containment site specified in this file 
could be constructed a suitable distance beneath it. Object was 
subsequently lowered into permanent containment via a series of 
tunnels collapsed beneath it, and its chamber completed from the 
outside. 


The following tests were performed while SCP-3394 was held in 
temporary containment. 


Communication Test - 6/6/2017 
Subject: SCP-3394 


Procedure: Researcher White and Junior Researcher 
Dwyer instructed to stand 2m from the surface of the 
mass surrounding SCP-3394 with Researcher White 
focusing on a Foundation standard sentient entity test, 
pausing for roughly 1 minute per question. Researcher 
Dwyer directed to observe any anomalous activity. 


Results: Both researchers reported an unbroken stream 
of questions from the moment they were within 6m of the 
suspected center of the anomaly3 until roughly 6 minutes 
into the procedure, at which point researcher White 
vocalizes that the questions have stopped. SCP-3394 
then reported to induce the sensation of being watched, 
with both researchers exhibiting signs of extreme 
distress. Junior Researcher Dwyer became agitated, 
expressing desire to attempt destruction of SCP-3394 via 
plastic explosive. SCP-3394 ceased all identifiable 
mental broadcasting at this time, and none has been 
detected since. 


Analysis: / don't know any other way to describe it. As 
soon as it knew we were there, as soon as it 'saw' us, or 
deduced our presence, or whatever, it... we... everything 
was so hopeless. It felt like being alone in the dark 
surrounded by monsters - knowing one's spotted you. I... 
| just wanted it to end. - Researcher White 


Ice Test - 6/12/17 
Subject: SCP-3394 


Procedure: SCP-3394 spontaneously reacted to the 
presence of ice cubes in Agent Grant's beverage, who 
had moved within 6m of SCP-3394 while performing 
unauthorized observation of the anomaly. Agent Grant 
spilled a portion of his beverage, including a single ice 
cube, on the structure surrounding SCP-3394. 


Results: Remaining Ice cubes exited Agent Grant's 
beverage with a suspected 345N of force and passed 
directly upwards through Agent Grant's skull. Ice cubes 
continued to move rapidly through the air in a roughly 8 
meter radius around the center of SCP-3394 for the next 
12 minutes. A gradual inward spiral was observed until 
the ice had fully melted. 


Analysis: Fortunately Agent Grant's death bought us 
valuable information. We have a new theory regarding 
how it ‘perceives’, or perhaps 'deduces' the existence of 
certain materials. Additionally, despite the speed of the 
ice chunks, when one struck a segment of aboveground 
tree roots#, all of the momentum immediately vanished 
from it, with no mechanical damage to either the ice, or 
the root. - Researcher White 


Ice Test 2 - 6/12/17 


Subject: SCP-3394 


Procedure: Junior Researcher Dwyer approached to a 
distance of 10m from SCP-3394 and directed to throw a 


series of 10 5g ice cubes towards SCP-3394 over the 
course of 1 minute. D-4977 directed to use a 3m long 
wooden oar? to intercept as many of the ice cubes as 
possible. 


Results: Ice cubes began moving in a rapid inward 
spiral as soon as they entered within 8.6m of the center 
of SCP-3394. D-4977 was able to intercept 1 of the ice 
cubes, resulting in the cube falling to the ground and 
remaining inert®. Remaining ice cubes struck the metal 
shell of SCP-3394 with sufficient force to dent the metal 
inwards and shatter the ice. Ice shards observed to 
continue grinding into the metal shell with masses of ice 
smaller than 0.1g becoming inert and falling to the 
ground. 


Analysis: The addition of a wooden shell has been 
made to the blueprints of the permanent containment 
unit. - Researcher White 


Paraffin wax Test - 6/12/17 
Subject: SCP-3394 


Procedure: Junior Researcher Dwyer provided with two 
1g lumps of paraffin wax and directed to approach to a 
distance of 10m from SCP-3394 and throw one of the 
lumps on the ground within 2m of SCP-3394's outer 
shell. Junior Researcher Dwyer was then directed to 
throw remaining wax lump directly at the object's metal 
shell. 


Results: First wax lump produced no effect. Upon 
contact of the second wax lump with SCP-3394's metal 
shell, both wax lumps observed to accelerate rotationally 
around SCP-3394's center point in an inward spiral. Both 
wax lumps smeared into thin patches on the metal shell 
with no further observed effect. 


Analysis: The anomaly appears to recognize the 
presence of a given material only after something 


identical in composition to it touches the shell. I'm not 
certain why it doesn't work on grass and dirt. Or, for that 
matter, on the drywall and plastics that it must have 
come in contact with on the way here. Let's just call this 
one a win, and not let anything new touch it. - 
Researcher White 


Human Test - 6/15/17 


Subject: SCP-3394 

Foreword: The ‘test' documented here was the result of 
D-4977 coming into contact with the outer shell of 
SCP-3394 during the course of an emergency addition of 
explosives to finish off an incomplete tunnel collapse 
beneath SCP-3394. | regret that we were careless 
enough to allow it to happen. - Head Researcher 
Richardet. 


Procedure: D-4977 comes into physical contact with the 
metal shell around SCP-3394 due to a loss of footing. 


Results: D-4977 observed to ‘collapse’ into SCP-3394's 
metal shell over the course of 14 seconds until no portion 
of his body was visible. This process reported to 
increase in speed exponentially towards the final 
seconds. D-4977 spoke throughout the first 12 seconds 
of this process. The log of these vocalizations follows. 


Transcribed audio log 3394.4977: (D-4977 weeping 
throughout.) "This one doesn't want to live either! Why 
do we have to stay? I'm squeezing as hard as-" (No 
further recognizable vocalizations follow.) 


Analysis: The demolition charge, thankfully, never 
touched the anomaly. We got it contained. - Researcher 
White

SCP-3395: The Servants of Fire 


Item #: SCP-3395 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: As of August 2001, the 
SCP-3395 containment team is employed at a Foundation front 
company headquartered in the North Tower (Tower 1) of the World 
Trade Center complex. Any reported sightings of SCP-3395 are to 
be responded to by the subdivision of Mobile Task Force Pi-1 
(“City Slickers”) assigned to the World Trade Center; SCP-3395’s 
manifestation area is to be immediately cleared of civilians and 
amnestics issued as appropriate. 


The messages delivered by SCP-3395, and their exact meaning, are 
currently being reviewed and analyzed by researchers and this file 
will be updated with any relevant findings. 


Description: SCP-3395 is a spectral humanoid entity resembling 
Monica Rodriguez Smith (1958-1993), an employee of the World 
Trade Center who was killed during the 1993 bombing of the 
complex. SCP-3395 periodically appears throughout the World 
Trade Center at unpredictable intervals; currently, it most commonly 
manifests between the hours of 08:30 and 10:30AM in the offices of 
businesses located between the 80th and 110th (top) floors of either 
of the main Twin Towers. During manifestation events, SCP-3395 
will remain stationary and repeatedly vocalize a series of phrases 
while maintaining a facial expression that has been described as 
“blank” or “looking through you.” 


SCP-3395’s statements are cryptic and lack any obvious underlying 
meaning, but all deal with the subject of death or destruction, usually 
incorporating fire as a motif and referring to the "Servants of Fire". 
The theory currently accepted by SCP-3395 researchers is that it is 
attempting to share knowledge of a cataclysmic future event, but 
due to the vagueness of its descriptors that event has yet to be 


reaching full maturity (one from another SCP-440-3, another from 
attacking a group of SCP-440-2s). The survivors establish a 
territorial system within the LSWOD. It is assumed that SCP-440-3 
specimens are composed of SCP-440, but capturing an SCP-440-3 
sample has proven difficult, owing to hostility by SCP-440-3s.

identified. SCP-3395 does not respond to outside stimuli and cannot 
be moved due to its incorporeal nature; as such, containment of 
manifestation events is primarily concerned with temporarily 
evacuating the affected area of the towers and issuing amnestics.
