The sphere of new space was filled with goat entrails which 
immediately collapsed to fill the dimple in the ground created by the 
distortion and overflow into the surrounding area. 


Addendum: Excavation of SCP-2282's remains has revealed that 


some of SCP-2282's stomachs were not filled with digestive fluid, 
and contained objects that were kept relatively well preserved, 
including several that would have been too large for SCP-2282 to 
have consumed whole. Objects currently discovered in the remains 
include: 


* 1 wooden architectural ruler 

¢ 4 Tic Tac brand candy boxes (empty, various flavors) 

¢ 1 "Pikachu Pedometer" instruction booklet 

¢ 11 rocks (various sizes) 

* 1 large wood lathe 

¢ 22 various wood lathe tools 

* 7 playing cards (standard) 

* 9 playing cards (identified as part of the "7th Sea Collectible 
Card Game") 

* 1 giraffe skeleton (whole) 

* 1 halogen light bulb 

¢ 1 stainless steel dresser 

¢ 191 Elmer's brand glue sticks 

* 1 beehive (whole, dormant) 

* 6 vacuum tubes

SCP-2283: Spirit Bomb 


Item #: SCP-2283 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: Instances of SCP-2283 found 
in the field are to be disarmed by Class D resources possessing 
military or law enforcement equivalent certifications in Explosive 
Ordnance Disposal. Under no circumstances are Foundation 
personnel permitted to approach an instance of SCP-2283 
presumed or suspected of possessing a live payload. 


In the event appropriate Class D resources are unavailable to 
deactivate an instance of SCP-2283, the instance is to be remotely 
detonated from a safe distance using any appropriate explosive 
projectile. 


Under no circumstances are Foundation personnel to use remotely 
controlled vehicles to dispose of instances of SCP-2283, although if 
no other situational alternative exists, the acting HMCL supervisors! 
may authorize the use of Class D resources to perform this task. 
Personnel should refer to Incident Log 2283-12 for more information. 


Deactivated instances of SCP-2283 are to be stored at least 50m 
underground in a facility designed to hold high explosive munitions 
with standard Foundation physical security and surveillance 
measures, in ordnance magazines built with aluminum non-sparking 
shelving. Currently, Ordnance Bunker 12 at Site-19 has been 
selected for this purpose. 


Under no circumstances are personnel below security classification 
2283-2 to be permitted entry to the selected storage site, with the 
exception of qualified Class D resources selected to perform 
mandatory biweekly inventory and degradation inspections. 


Partial data on non-anomalous aspects of SCP-2283-A's molecular 


composition is to be added to the Threat Recognition Analytics 
Certified Realtime (TRACR)2 forensic database to aid Foundation 
anterior detection and containment efforts. Foundation police 
liaisons in all regions where instances of SCP-2283 have been 
deployed or are suspected to be deployed must be trained in the 
item's detection, and are to alert their regional command upon 
reasonable suspicion of such deployment. 


If Foundation personnel become aware of the detonation of an 
instance of SCP-2283 in a civilian area, Foundation intelligence 
assets are to immediately enact Procedure False Flag, entailing the 
the return of falsified human remains to relatives of the victims, and 
blame for the incident to be attributed to the most convincing 
possible perpetrator. 


Description: SCP-2283 is a collection of 287 individual munitions 
and explosive devices of varying design, yield, age and 
manufacture, including but not limited to hand grenades, improvised 
explosive devices, timed charges and field ordnance. Instances of 
SCP-2283 resemble traditional explosives in most respects, 
including non-anomalous mechanical and electronic components, 
wiring, and blasting caps. 


However, the explosive component of each SCP-2283 instance is 
composed of SCP-2283-A, an unknown material superficially 
resembling RDX (PVV-5A), but with several unexplained physical 
propertiess. 


Every recorded instance of the detonation of an instance of 
SCP-2283 has resulted in damage to nearby inanimate objects as 
would otherwise be expected for a non-anomalous RDX device of 
an equivalent yield. However, persons within the blast radius of an 
SCP-2283 instance will not suffer the effects of said explosion, but 
will instead instantaneously vanish along with all possessions on 
their person4 from known space, and mirror the creation of 
SCP-2283-B, Class 4 Incorporeal Entities® with unique 
characteristics. 


Instances of SCP-2283-B are unable to perceive or interact with 
each other directly and do not appear to require sustenance or 
conditions required for homeostasis in non-anomalous humanoids. It 


is currently unknown how long instances of SCP-2283-B remain 
extant, though available evidence indicates no known maximum 
lifespan of the entities. 


Through test detonations with Class D resources, it has been 
determined SCP-2283-B instances report subjective experiences 
consistent with continuity of consciousness between base and 
incorporeal states®. Foundation scientific personnel became aware 
of SCP-2283-B upon the interception of anomalous communications 
in the form of phone calls, text messages, and other electronic 
messages apparently composed by the entities. Personnel with 
security classification 2283-2 or higher should refer to logs 2283-1 
through 2283-495. 


Instances of SCP-2283 have been recovered in the course of 
Foundation security operations from a variety of groups of interest, 
as well as recovered from conflict zones and law enforcement 
agencies responding to bomb threats or reports of suspicious 
objects, in at least 65 different countries. Direct attacks on 
Foundation personnel and assets involving SCP-2283 is suspected 
in atleast incidents. Foundation intelligence has been unable to 
determine the source of SCP-22837. 


LOG-2283-17 


After a confirmed detonation of an instance of 
SCP-2283 [REDACTED], resulting in six 
civilian casualties, Foundation personnel 
intercepted text messages sent from a number 
matching the phone of SCP-2283-B-12 to 
POI-2283-58, the instance's father, arriving 
approximately five hours later. A partial 
transcript follows. 


SCP-2283-B-12: dad i love you 
SCP-2283-B-12: dad please answer there was 
an explosion i'm hurt 

POI-2283-58: ? is that you? where have 
you been? 

POI-2283-58: your mother and i have been 
worried sick. the police won't tell us anything. 


where are you? 

SCP-2283-B-12: dad im here 
POI-2283-58: is this ? 
SCP-2283-B-12: dad 

SCP-2283-B-12: dad please 
SCP-2283-B-12: im outside do you see me 
please say you see me 

POI-2283-58: i'm calling the police. 
SCP-2283-B-12: dad why cant you see 
SCP-2283-B-12: please 
SCP-2283-B-12: it hurts so much 


POI-2283-58 has reported similar 
communications from SCP-2283-B-12 ona 
sporadic basis for the past years. 


INCIDENT LOG 2283-12 


On // _ ,upon the detection of an instance of 
SCP-2283 in the Battery Park City neighborhood of New 
York City, Foundation security operative Mitchell Sonmer 
attempted to destroy the instance using a remotely 
controlled model MK4 "Wheelbarrow" disposal robot. 
Upon successful detonation, operative Sonmer 
dematerialized. 


Foundation personnel have not received any 
communications from any entity claiming to be Sohmer 
subsequent to this event. 


ADDENDUM-2283-1 


The following is excerpted from: Charalambou, L. E. 
(2009). ‘Theoretical frameworks of anomalous terrorism: 
SCP-2283.' Foundation Level 3 Security Review, 8, 
101-129. 


Many modern terrorism theorists ascribe to a 
so-called realist model of terrorism, 
envisioning the use of terror tactics as a 
rational choice made by rational agents in 


pursuit of concrete goals. Others from the 
constructivist school, or those who understand 
terrorism through the perspective of 
organizational process theory, tend to propose 
the fundamental nature of terrorism is a social 
construct, and that various actors conduct 
terrorist activities not just for the narrow 
purpose of achieving political goals, but as the 
predictable result of alienating social and 
political realities. 


Either approach envisions an act of terrorism 
as inflicted upon victims, but primarily intended 
for another party entirely - the audience, the 
public, who will be filled with fear. Hence the 
term terrorism. 


SCP-2283 is not a tool for terrorists, at least as 
that term is used in the mundane world of 
politics and violence. A non-anomalous bomb 
inspires fear, pain, suffering; it leaves behind 
physical evidence of the power of those who 
put it there in the form of dead bodies, maimed 
survivors and tortured lives. But when an 
SCP-2283 device detonates the victims simply 
disappear without the requisite carnage. 


At least for us, the audience. But to the victim, 
the blast has apparently eternal 
consequences. Imagine: being blasted into 
eternal solitude, like a cursed spirit, forced to 
wander in isolation for all we know until the 
heat death of the universe. 


In other words, very unpleasant. Thus at face 
value the erstwhile analyst may conclude it is a 
technology more suited to retaliation or 
revenge against specific individuals or 
organizations than terrorizing an entire 
population. 


However, standard models of terrorism apply 
to some extent ... groups aware of, or 
engaged in the use of anomalous phenomena 
may be aware of the existence of SCP-2283 
devices, and the threat of their use may inspire 
greater terror and fear than the deadliest of 
traditional bombs. 


INCIDENT LOG 2283-292 


On 06/17/2016, MTF Rho-17 ("Counter-Terrorists Win") 
recovered 200 fully loaded 7.62mm magazines 
containing SCP-2283-A incendiary rounds from an 
armory in -controlled territory in ,  . Testing 
with Class D resources has demonstrated the rounds 
result in similar anomalous effects including the 
instantaneous transition of humanoid targets to a Class 4 
Incorporeal Entity. 


Four members of MTF Rho-17 were reported MIA during 
the initial operation. After consultation with the SCP-2283 
HMCL supervisors over the feasibility of retrieving these 
personnel, all four have been awarded the Foundation 
Star for distinguished service.

Item description: Energy gas — A soap bubble stabilized inside a 
transparent plastic can. Packaging in English. Instruction are to 
"pierce a hole and inhale the contained gas." Applying a finger to the 
bubble will indeed pierce a hole. Inhaling the (lavender-scented) gas 
caused the bubble to shrink until it vanished completely and gave an 
energized and empowered feeling to the subject. Subject 
complained for several hours of an irritated and itchy nasal cavity. 


SCP-2284: Mr. Lie 


Item #: SCP-2284 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2284 is to be held within a 
standard humanoid containment chamber within Hall of Site- . 
Only D-Class personnel are to communicate with SCP-2284. 


Description: SCP-2284 is a male humanoid of Indian descent that 
is almost genetically identical to SCP-2148. The words "Mr. Lie, 
from Little Misters ® by Dr. Wondertainment" are tattooed upon 
SCP-2284's left bicep. 


The speech of SCP-2284 exhibits a cognitohazardous effect that 
causes others that sense it to believe all declarations and 
statements made by SCP-2284 are objectively true. Direct audio 
recordings are subject to this effect. Questions posed by SCP-2284 
exhibit no anomalous properties, nor do transcriptions of its speech. 
Testing has begun to determine whether this property applies to 
things SCP-2284 writes or types. 


SCP-2284 is physically incapable of making true statements. 
However, it is able to communicate somewhat effectively by relying 
on rhetorical questions and series of questions that lead others to 
the desired conclusion. 


Research is currently underway to determine a possible connection 
between SCP-2284 and SCP-2148-2. 


Addendum A: The following transcript is from an interview between 
D-22841 and SCP-2284, recorded by a Foundation speech to text 
program. Minor edits were made afterward to correct small errors 
made by the program. Text in italicized brackets are notes by 
D-22841 during the interview concerning the body language and 
verbal tone of SCP-2284. 


+ Open interview 


D-22841: Hey. | gotta read you these questions 
and write how you react. They have it set up so a 
computer will type out everything we say. That 
alright? 


SCP-2284: Why wouldn't it be? 

D-22841: Right. So. How are you today, 2284? 
SCP-2284: Couldn't be better. How are you? 
D-22841: Eh, could be better. 

[Both laugh] 


D-22841: Right, so first thing. In 1995 there was an 
incident featuring SCP-2148, and— 


SCP-2284: What's that? 


D-22841: Um. One sec, let me double check the 
number. Ah, right. Blindfolded guy, calls himself 
Mister Stripes. 


(SCP-2284 sits up) 


SCP-2284: (Speaks urgently,) What happened to 
Stripes? 


D-22841: Nothing to him, more that he did 
something. | think. Or the doctors think, | guess. 
This black bar showed up on the cameras for a 
while, and then at the end he had this photo. Later, 
when they looked at his Little Misters list, your 
name was blacked out. 


(SCP-2284 becomes progressively more relaxed 
during explanation) 


SCP-2284: (Relieved?) Oh, is that all? Stripes 


himself is alright? 


D-22841: So far as | know. You didn't have 
anything to do with that?
