SCP-268: Cap of Neglect 


Item #: SCP-268 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-268 is currently to be 
maintained within [DATA EXPUNGED], as it has been deemed that 
the change of use for facilitation of escape by restricted personnel or 
humanoid SCP is too great. However, the possibility of use by field 
agents after further testing is under review. See addendum 268-05. 


Description: SCP-268 is a tweed-wool newsboy cap. The design 
and make seem to be of Irish origin. Due to the style and fabric, it is 
estimated to have been created in the late 1800's to early 1900's, 
though fiber analysis is inconclusive. The only markings on the cap 
are a small label with writing in Middle Irish, reading "The Garden is 
the Serpent's Place." However, there are various indications that this 
label was sewn onto the cap in recent times. 


Due to the nature of the artifact, testing has been extremely difficult. 
SCP-268 seems to be a normal hat until it is worn. Anyone wearing 
the hat, however, becomes suddenly and instantly unnoticeable. 
Subjects become unmemorable, thoroughly ignorable, or "taken for 
granted" by all observers. Observers, with specific prompting, are 
able to later recall physically seeing the subject, but can give no 
specific details other than "seeing a man with a hat". Observers 
seem to have the overwhelming feeling that the wearer is someone 
that was "supposed to be there", and thus did not merit thought or 
notice. 


During initial testing, remote analysts completely forgot what they 
were supposed to be observing within the chamber, and it was not 
until the D-Class subject wearing SCP-268 spoke out loud that he 
was noticed again. Removal of the artifact, vocalization, and 
physical interaction with observers seem to be the only way in which 
wearers of SCP-268 can make themselves noticeable. Once an 


nutrients per day per kg of body weight.6 One 
specimen is to be selected at random, 
euthanized, and dissected within SCP-2438 
every 10 days. 


Results: 

Day 1: Unlike all past trials, specimens do not 
display agitation or other unusual symptoms 
when fed. 


Day 10: Dissected Specimen: Male, 2.1kg: 
Specimen displayed no unusual strain of the 
circulatory or respiratory systems. No signs of 
malnutrition. 


Day 20: Dissected Specimen: Female, 1.7kg: 
Specimen’s blood displayed a highly depleted 
platelet count, resulting in minor bruising and 
internal bleeding. Specimen also displayed 
extensive peptic ulcers, resulting in blood 
entering the digestive system around 
SCP-2438-1. 


Day 30: Dissected Specimen: Male, 2.5kg: 
Specimen’s digestive system has significantly 
atrophied, particularly the intestines and colon. 
Capillary networks have expanded throughout 
muscle tissue and into areas not normally 
served by the circulatory system such as 
tendons and ligaments, potentially improving 
oxygen distribution and healing efficiency. 


Day 40: Dissected specimen: Male, 1.8 kg: 
Dissection is becoming increasingly difficult 
due to the toughness of intervening muscle 
tissue. Specimen’s digestive system has 
continued to atrophy and deteriorate. Its 
intestines have become nearly 
indistinguishable from its circulatory system, 
with food and liquids consumed directly 
entering the bloodstream. SCP-2438-1 seem 


to have transitioned from a parasitic to a fully 
symbiotic role, taking the place of platelets in 
addition to processing food into energy. The 
specimen’s scent glands have enlarged 
significantly, and samples collected from 
remaining specimens exhibit new pheromone 
production as well as complex organic 
compounds of indeterminate purpose. 


Day 45 47: After a number of documentation 
errors and a failed monthly employee drug 
screening, we discovered that specimens are 
capable of producing airborne memory- 
inhibiting compounds. Video suggests that the 
specimens produce these substances while 
enacting ‘orienting’ and ‘freezing’ behaviors, 
usually seen in O. cunniculus when avoiding 
predators. Researchers must now operate in 
full environmental gear. 


Day 49: SCP-2438-1 in a sample of a 
specimen’s blood were found to be intact and 
alive several hours after leaving SCP-2438. No 
transplants using this sample were successful. 
Samples from other sources continue to 
degrade as normal. 


As a precaution, Project Room 17 has been 
placed in full environmental lockdown. All non- 
automated interactions with specimens have 
been suspended pending further investigation.

SCP-2439: [SLOT UNALLOCATED] 


TIPS: 

Take a breather to read this every five minutes. It'll look shifty if you 
take too long to clean up. 

Don’t all read this at the same time. One reads while the other two 
mop. 

If you start to feel crook, stop looking at the lamp. Don’t cover it or 
someone will come in. 

If you don’t want to feel like your insane for the rest of your life, 
don’t read anything further. Get 

back to work or something. 

Read the whole fucking thing before you start destroying itna 
BRIGHT IS A COCKSUCKING MONKEY 

Item #: SCP-739 1648 2439 update number if slot takeny dont we just leave 
it 9001 


Object Class: Keter keter = what 


Special Containment Procedures: Foundation personnel other than 
us D-Classes can’t know this thing exists. It stays between us. If 
someone tries to tell them about it, fuck them up so they won't or 
cant. Yeah, you'll probably get into deep shit for it, but it’s better than 
the alternative. 


If someone who isn’t a D-Class comes in and reads this, kill them. 
Just break their skull or some shit and scratch the wall this is on so 
nobody can read it. Try and make sure you tell someone else about 
all this first though, so we can keep it controlled. 


Description: Its an idea that infects people who know about it and 
takes over their mind slowly. It’s some ancient mind from an 
alternate dimension (we think) that’s trying to get into ours and take 
over. It’s smart so it'll spread around the Foundation real quick if it 
gets a chance, which is why this is scratched into this wall away 
from cameras. KILROY WOZ ERE 


By now you'd be hearing that faint whispering — that is the thing 
we're containing. If you can hear it there’s no turning back now, 
you’re stuck with this until you die (which you can do early if you 
want). We don’t know how long it’s been around, since everyone 
seems to vanish every month (spoiler alert, you don’t get out) which 
makes it hard for information to get around. What we're left with is 
this, which is just chinese whispers and such. We'd give it a proper 
number but to do that we'd have to tell someone, which would be 
counter-productive so instead we just get the occasional disgraced 
researcher to tell us when the number has been used. The format’s 
been like this forever, | don't think any of us even know what Keter 
means. 


Whatever you do, don’t let the guards or researchers know this is 
here. They only let D’s into here to clean up, and the higher-ups 
haven't tested the lamp in ages (I think), and this is the only room in 
the site that doesn’t have cameras in it thanks to that lamp. It should 
be pretty obvious that this Foundation lot can do anything they want, 
so if they got taken over by something like this there’d be no 
stopping it. We're fine though since we’re probably going to be dead 
by the end of the month anyway, which isn’t long enough for it to 
fully take over. If you think it’s getting the better of you, do 
something apeshit and get shot. Blaze of glory if you want. 


Destroying this would be the easiest way to crush this thing once 
and for all, yeah. But dont, not if you dont have to. Why? Firstly, it's 
the right thing to do for any of youse who are seeking redemption for 
whatever the fuck you did. Someone needs to remember this thing 
exists so its kept controlled - it showed up a first time, didnt it? What 
if it just did it again somewhere else if we destroyed this? What if the 
D's in some other site have something like this, but they don't 
destroy it? We keep this so we can control it. 


Or, if your not down for the redemption bit, keep it out of spite. This 
is the one thing we know they can't know - this can be the last fuck 
you. They're obsessed with controlling, knowing, understanding 
everything. They use us to do this - march us to death to see how 
we die. Use us as labour to mop up goop from a fucking lamp. We're 
the expendables. But with this, we have the advantage. Every time 
one of us dies so they can learn something, they loose the chance 


to learn about the one thing that would fucking obliterate them. This 
is Our weapon against them, the one-shot nuke that would fucking 
crush them to shit, and hidden right under their fucking noses ina 
room they cant be stuffed looking at. 

what about assholes who just want to tell them? refer to containment procedures 
first paragraph 

But don't use it, not yet. Some of us have family and friends outside 
of this hell, and they would suffer. Our jailors would be used like little 
hand puppets by this mind, and through them the world would suffer, 
crushed under the boot of the Foundation. This thing can only be 
used once, too - if we release it too early, then they'll adapt. They'll 
learn to avoid it, they'll contain it, they'll survive. Then our advantage 
would be gone, for good. We'd be exactly what they think we are - 
expendable. 


So dont let anyone use it. It isn't time, not yet. 


Just in case you're the eldritch thing: fuck off squidface. We’re 
worthless sure, but we can get shit done just as well as the others. 
You're not getting in.

SCP-2440: The Sealed King 


Item #: SCP-2440 
Object Class: Keter 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2440’s existence is to be 
kept from all individuals lacking at least 4/2440 clearance. Any 
uncleared individual who learns of SCP-2440’s existence is to be 
issued several rounds of Class-X amnestics, until researchers agree 
by a unanimous vote that no more amnestics are required. 


A full-time RAISA team has been deployed to investigate and scan 
the Foundation database for possible links to SCP-2440 among the 
current catalogued SCP objects. 


Full-time containment teams have been deployed to investigate and 
eliminate instances of SCP-2440 awareness. In addition, a team is 
currently active in the field in search of possible hideouts and bases 
of operation for the Children of God, and other infected individuals. 


The total number of personnel aware of SCP-2440 must not exceed 
100 individuals at any given time. 


Description: SCP-2440 is an extra-dimensional entity whose power 
increases proportional to the number of people who are aware of it. 
SCP-2440 uses a memetic agent that can be inserted into virtually 
any source of information, including text, images, verbal phrases, 
and auditory stimulus. Conscious recognition of said memetic agent 
is not necessary, as simple visual recognition is capable of infecting 
individuals. 


Infected individuals display varying degrees of self-control that can 
differ based on the number of people who are currently infected. In 
addition, if SCP-2440 reaches a certain degree of awareness, it is 
capable of overtaking the body of an infected individual, and 
controlling it. 


The entity is capable of controlling the actions of multiple infected 
individuals to some degree, but can extend its influence past 
infected individuals if it reaches a certain degree of awareness in the 


world.
