If the security of Outpost Delta is compromised, SCP-270 is to be 
destroyed, along with all on-base records of verified or unverified 
information accumulated, and manuscripts outlining various 
encryptions SCP-270 has used. 


Description: SCP-270 is a nondescript black phone of mid-20th 
century make. 


There were no human populations exceeding people per 

square meters within a radius of the location of discovery, and 
SCP-270 itself was well hidden by surrounding native vegetation. 
The unusual properties of SCP-270 were apparent upon discovering 
that the power cord extended an indefinite length into the soil 
directly below SCP-270, despite which a steady voice was speaking 
through the earphone. Investigations regarding how long the cord is 
have since been officially discontinued (see Addendum 270-A). 


What makes SCP-270 of continued interest is the audio stream from 
the earphone, which has since been discovered to contain 
encrypted messages that are of value to the Foundation. Said 
ciphers are referred to as SCP-270-1. 


For the most part, SCP-270-1 consists of a mildly distorted human 


SCP-2446-B4: I'm going to assume that you do then; the 
lab boys brought us down to a thing they'd put together. 
We were all loaded up into the machine, and then they 
sent us out to deal with the problem. | don't know much 
about teleportation and how it works, but | couldn't see 
anything, couldn't move, | felt like | was suffocating, and 
everything was just black. Then, we started getting 
smashed around, not sure why that is either. 


N_ : You arrived at the origin location at this point? 


SCP-2446-B4: Yeah, half the team was pretty beat up 
from the trip especially the last part, so we initially tried to 
hide out in a nearby forest until the team could be 
patched up. That was our first mistake. We weren't sure 
how close to the source we were, and of course we 
should have been more ready for a reality bender. 


N  : You presumed there was a reality bender? 


SCP-2446-B4: Yeah we wouldn't be deployed if it was 
just some portals, that would be [REDACTED]'s job, 
wouldn't it. 


N  :1suppose.... 


SCP-2446-B4: Anyway, any member of our task force is 
trained to make it through reality alteration, but we 
weren't expecting it have been right on top of us, and the 
plants just strangled about half the team right away, 
although a few of the crew kept moving for a long time 
after their heads came off... 


[SCP-2446-B4 begins showing signs of distress as 
sedative wears off.] 

[| Post incident analysis suggests that SCP-2446-B4 
began to experience accelerated radioactive decay at 
this point | 


SCP-2446-B4: When we tried to use our tech to get out, 
and at first we thought we were, but when the staff 


started trying to chop us up with cartoonishly large 
knives, we were pretty sure that we hadn't made it out, 
but about then, | blacked out, and when | woke up... | 
was here.

Closing Statement: Following the conclusion of this 
interview, the subject began to vomit large amounts of 
radioactive material suggesting exacerbation of earlier 
symptoms, resulting in evacuation of nearby personnel. 
Remote monitoring of subject reveals unidentified 
substances leaking from subject along with a massive 
increase in ambient radiation. Following this, the subject 
began to show signs of severe necrosis. Approximately 
three hours later, liquid remains of subject are retrieved 
and sent to cold storage. Testing reveals no further 
anomalous activity.

SCP-2447: Modular Animals 


Item #: SCP-2447 

Object Class: Keter Euclid 

Special Containment Procedures: 
Show Iteration 1 


The collection of entities labelled SCP-2447 are to be 
kept within three hermetically sealed containers 
composed on 3 m thick osmium walls lined with a copper 
alloy. These chambers- located within Site-162's Heavy 
Containment Zone- are to be fitted with air vents, which 
are to fill the containment area with nitrous oxide at 
intervals of once every 6 hours. This should sedate 
SCP-2447 instances to a marginal level. A secondary 
main chamber is to encompass the three containers, and 
is to be constructed of cement and platinum tiling. 


If personnel must enter the container, they must wear the 
protective equipment outlined in Document 2447-a1, and 
must receive physical examinations following time inside. 
A decontamination station is to be permanently 
established adjacent to SCP-2447's main container. 


Any change in instance behavior or configuration is to be 
reported to SCP-2447's HMCL supervisor and the Site 
Director. Available MTF units are to be dispatched to 
SCP-2447's location, and personnel are to be put on 
standby for a site-wide evacuation. 


A 120 v current is to be run through the copper alloy for a 
period of 20 seconds, at intervals of once every 6 hours. 
Binding of SCP-2447's modular components is 
implausible at this time. 


Show Iteration 2 


The collection of entities labelled SCP-2447 are to be 
kept within three locked containers composed on 3 m 
thick osmium walls lined with a copper alloy. A 
secondary main chamber is to encompass the three 
containers, and is to be constructed of cement and 
platinum tiling. Metal plating is to be surgically attached 
to each specimen's abdomen in order to prevent them 
from adjusting their modular configuration. The plating is 
to feature a small hatch which must be unlocked via a 
key belonging to SCP-2447's HMCL Supervisor. This will 
allow for testing with SCP-2447 to continue. 


SCP-2447 instances are sentient and hostile towards 
Foundation staff, and therefore must be sedated with 
nitrous oxide prior to anyone entering the chamber. 
Vents are to be installed within each container in order to 
achieve this. 


Any change in instance behavior or configuration is to be 
reported to SCP-2447's HMCL Supervisor and the Site 
Director. Available MTF units are to be dispatched to 
SCP-2447's location, and personnel are to be put on 
standby for a site-wide evacuation. 


A 120 v current is to be run through the copper alloy for a 
period of 15 seconds, at intervals of once every 8 hours. 


Show Iteration 3 (Current) 


The collection of entities labelled SCP-2447 are to be 
kept in the Euclid wing of Site-162. They are to be held 
within a standard animal containment cell fitted with 4 
outlets (see Addendum 2447-b). Duct tape is to be 
placed on all modifiable components of SCP-2447. 


In the event that SCP-2447's settings are altered, 
personnel are to alert SCP-2447's HMCL supervisor and 
the Site Director. Available MTF units are to be 
dispatched to SCP-2447's location, and personnel are to 


be put on standby for a site-wide evacuation if deemed 
necessary!. SCP-2447's 5th configuration may be 
restored by following the instructions listed in the patch 
sheet labelled "Document 2447-5c". However, this may 
be inadvisable if containment remains stable. 


SCP-2447 testing has been discontinued. 


Addendum 2447-a: SCP-2447's research team has fine-tuned the 
entities’ settings. The specimens (in their 5th distinct configuration) 
now pose no direct threat of immediate bodily harm. Duct tape has 
been applied to the modules to ensure the entities’ configurations 
are not mistakenly altered by themselves or staff. SCP-2447's 
classification has been changed to Euclid. 


Description: SCP-2447 designates a collection of three animals 
which superficially resemble nine-banded armadillos (Dasypus 
novemcinctus) in their current configuration. Each SCP-2447 
instance (Labelled SCP-2447-A through SCP-2447-C) consists of 27 
modules identical to those used in analog sound synthesis, and 
approximately 6 kg of biomass (currently arranged to resemble an 
armadillo). The devices interface with the tissues of SCP-2447 via 
muscle fibers which function as single-wire electrical connectors2. 
These fibers possess an elasticity level similar to that of rubber, and 
often connect directly to input ports located on the modules. 


The 27 modules are each composed of a stainless steel case and 
various dials and sliders. Adjusting the configuration or settings of 
these components has proven capable of affecting the organism's 
appearance, traits, and behaviors. Additionally, examination has 
shown that SCP-2447's DNA changes to corroborate with its 
physical state at any given time. Regardless of its configuration, 
however, SCP-2447 instances require no traditional nutrients to 
function, and instead absorb and metabolize electrical currents from 
outlets and chargers. The outlets in their chamber have an output of 
1500 W, which has been deemed more than sufficient. 


The modules themselves have widely different functions than their 

musical counterparts. SCP-2447 instances have 3 voltage-controlled 
oscillators believed to function as the base for the specimen, as well 
as 4 low-frequency oscillators which toggle between secondary traits 


such as means of motion, neural configuration, and two other traits 
which have yet to be identified. Other modules (such as the 
envelope generator, ring modulator, 8 voltage-controlled filters, 9 
voltage-controlled amplifiers, and 1 16-step sequencer) deal with 
either large behavioral patterns, visual aesthetic, or smaller nuances 
within the specimens' composition. 


At present, the entities exhibit mild personalities conducive to 
containment. In this state, their actions have been noted to be 
similar to that of a common house cat with slow locomotion and 
good-natured disposition. At no point with this configuration has an 
SCP-2447 specimen attempted to dismember or exenterate 
Foundation personnel. The complete drop in aggression, 
compounded by a form which is both nontoxic and land based, has 
since made SCP-2447 far easier to contain. It is believed that 
SCP-2447 instances reproduce by acquiring biomass (roughly 60kg) 
and sound synthesis modules, allowing them to assemble new 
instances. At this time, they are unable to enact this procedure due 
to their current configuration, which leaves them with poor memories 
and a lack of higher brain function. 


The full scope of SCP-2447's capabilities (as it is related to varying 
traits and behaviors) remains unknown at this time. 


Acquisition Log (Abridged): For full documentation, see 
"Acquisition Log SCP-2447-1". 


¢ Throughout the winter of 1988, residents of South Portland, 
Maine begin periodically calling local law enforcement to 
report sightings of lights and noises emanating from within a 
forested area. 


© Two civilian disappearances occur between December 
of 1988 and January of 1989. Additionally, the homes of 
two local musicians are broken into, and multiple 
synthesizers and keyboards are stolen. 

© The missing persons are found in the woods, stripped of 
all flesh. The incidents are brought to the Foundation's 
attention. 

© Agent Erickson is sent to investigate the scenario. He 
interviews several residents under the guise of a 


journalist. 
¢ MTF Epsilon-6 ("Village Idiots") is dispatched to the scene. 


© Epsilon-6 identify three anomalous entities inside the 
woods. SCP-2447 instances prove to be both intelligent 
and violent. The Department of External Security begins 
negotiations with the entities, which at first appears 
promising. 

© One month after initial attempts at diplomacy, another 
resident is killed by SCP-2447, who have changed their 
physical appearance. This is the first time this ability has 
been observed. A break-in at a local music store (in 
which 27 synthesizer modules were stolen) is also 
attributed to them. Negotiations break down and the 
situation is escalated over the course of the following 
week. 

© Epsilon-6 attempts to apprehend the anomalies. One 
MTF member is fatally wounded and another is injured. 

© Approximately 12 hours later, Epsilon-6 conducts 
another raid on the anomalies’ territory. Two more MTF 
members are injured before the anomalies are taken in. 


¢ The three captured entities are transferred to Site-162 for 
classification and subsequent containment. 


Addendum 2447-b: The following note was sent to SCP-2447's 
Research Director following breakthroughs regarding SCP-2447's 
breeding practices: 


"Hi Julien. As we've noted, SCP-2447 are incapable of 
breeding in their current state. However, a few things 
have turned up and we now have a better understanding 
of how these things operate. The details are outlined in 
the summary revision | sent you. Do me a favor and go 
back to SCP-2447's recovery log and tell me how many 
civilians were killed in total before the anomalies were 
recovered. I'm counting 3. 3 dead civilians stripped of 
flesh, and enough electronics to stick that flesh back 
together. That number wouldn't be an issue if it weren't 
for the fact that the first civilian was also killed by an 


SCP-2447 specimen. If they used all of that flesh and 
electronics, there should actually be 4 specimens, not 3. 


I'm contacting our Containment Specialist about getting 
another outlet installed, and I'm trying to get Erickson 
back on the phone. Please see me. 


-Dr. Loginova"

SCP-2448: Castle of Guillaume the Guildmaster 


Item #: SCP-2448 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: A perimeter around the 
grounds of SCP-2448 is to be established, and a 5-man team of 
security personnel is to patrol the boundaries every 4 hours. A guard 
station on the north edge of the castle premises will house any 
personnel assigned to SCP-2448. Any unauthorized persons 
attempting to enter the perimeter are to be turned away with the 
explanation of an ongoing private-family historical renovation and 
refurbishing project. 


When SCP-2448 becomes active,! a team of 5 personnel, ideally 
from various departments not restricted to field agents, are to be 
sent onto SCP-2448’s grounds to contain the manifestations (see 
Field Mission Brief). Personnel assigned to SCP-2448 are allowed to 
bring and request nonstandard equipment; all carried items must be 
approved and logged by the SCP-2448 research team prior to team 
entry onto the grounds. Teams assigned to SCP-2448 are to be 
rotated every three months. 


Description: SCP-2448 is located in —_, Switzerland, and consists 
of the ruins of what appears to be a later medieval-era English 
castle and its surrounding grounds, which together span a roughly 
regular hexagonal area with an area of 50,000 square meters. While 
the architecture of the castle is consistent with those held by 13th- 
century English nobility, landmarks and other structures present on 
the grounds possess more modern developments. Markers near the 
property state the location as "The Village of Gyfax2". 


Four discrete areas accompany the castle: a graveyard, farmland/ 
orchard plots, an ornamental flower garden, and a market-square- 
layout of artisan workshops. Signs in each area proclaim (in French, 
German, Italian, and Romansch) the owner of the premises to be 


"Guillaume the Guildmaster" with the house motto "Enter, Friends, 
And Play". Exploration has revealed that only certain items in the 
location can be interacted with (e.g. picked up, moved, knocked 
over). Any items retrieved from SCP-2448 that are taken outside its 
boundaries will shrink in size.3 Lab analysis indicates the resultant 
items to be comprised of non-anomalous polystyrene.
