Sapient entities entering SCP-3703-1 are subject to SCP-3703's 
secondary anomalous effect, involving visual and auditory 
compulsion. This involves a desire to touch or climb SCP-3703, 
resulting in activation of SCP-3703's tertiary effects. The exact 
source of the compulsion involves the manipulation of individual 
skeletal remains to form [COGNITOHAZARD EXPUNGED] using 
the fingers; in concert with subliminal sound emissions. 


Individuals who come in direct physical contact with SCP-3703 are 
subject to its tertiary anomalous effect. Subjects will fuse with the 
set(s) of remains at the initial site of contact. Fusion is usually 
physically traumatic enough to break the cognitohazardous effect.

The following experiments were subject to several 
differing conditions. Inanimate objects were placed in 
SCP-3703-1 via remoted controlled robotic arm. D-class 
subjects entering SCP-3703-1 were equipped with 
retractable cables. Audio-Video recording transcripts of 
tests 3 and 4 have been attached within the log files; 
primarily due to the presence of [COGNITOHAZARD 
REMOVED].

Result: 


Test Name: E-3703-01 

Operator: Dr. Alva Modir 

Object/item introduced: 1 bouncy ball, 1 titanium 
cube block (0.22 m3), 1 Rubik's cube, 1 children's 
shape sorting toy (square peg provided, square 
hole on the frame was sealed with glue and wood 
prior to testing, leaving only the circle and triangle 
holes). 

Result: All four inanimate objects were placed 
within 3 m of SCP-3703; initiating the testing 
sequence. 


SCP-3703 exhibited a response 10 seconds after 
initiation of testing, rearranging its shape to form an 
appendage, picking up the bouncy ball. For the next 
five minutes, SCP-3703 picks up and drops the ball. 
Corpses in the central mass are noted to to turn 
their heads, following the ball as it bounces. 


SCP-3703 moves from the ball to the titanium 
block, and proceeds to use its appendage to pick 
up and drop the block four times. On the fifth 
attempt, SCP-3703 does not drop the block, but 
pulls the appendage back in. 15 seconds post 
submersion, the block is ejected from the central 
mass. Ejection velocity was measured at 
approximately 100 km/h; its impact severely 
damaged two nearby pieces of measuring 
equipment. 


The titanium block was modified by SCP-3703, 
possessing carved proto-nordic runes translating to 


the following text: 


Is someone there beyond the passage? | 
can feel the metal and movement through 
what's left. | cannot see you through their 
eyes. Their sight is failing. Light is fading. 
Are you there? Is it you after 5 lifetimes of 
slumber? | can no longer hold here. | have 
not slept since you left the eyes won't 
allow it. | cannot hold here. | cannot hold 
here. The passage weakens behind me, 
and 6 wake in the bowels of my 
weakness. It's not you there. It's not you. 
Come back. Please come back. | cannot 
hold here. Please come back. 


Central mass recreates the appendage, and 
proceeds to pick up the Rubik's cube. Individual 
corpses are observed holding and maneuvering the 
shifting parts of the puzzle, prior to the appendage 
being internalized. 10 seconds following 
internalization, the Rubik's cube is ejected, solved. 


Appendage reforms after five seconds, and picks 
up both the sorting frame and provided shape peg. 
Both the frame and the peg are internalized. The 
SCP-3703 instance promptly begins spinning at 30 
rotations per second, generating a significant wind 
column for approximately 30 seconds. Both the 
frame and the peg are ejected from SCP-3703-1 at 
high speed, destroying several pieces of equipment 
but sustaining no damage themselves. Both are 
inscribed with similar proto-nordic runes translating 
to the following: 


Are they still there, strangers, metal, 
maybe humans? It doesn't fit. It doesn't fit. 
Are they the three arrowed eye, save me? 
Can you hear me? Children's toys, on 
tides of war. They can't be ready too late. 
Will end them all, they aren't ready. They 


aren't ready. They aren't ready. You're not 
here and they aren't ready. | gave 
everything they gave everything who are 
they what do you want why. Why? Save 
me. Save me. Save me. Shattering seal 
failing passage angry mankind's doom. 
Save me. 


SCP-3703 demonstrates prominent signs of 
sapience. The singular and plural use of pronouns 
in these carvings suggests indicate some sort of 
hive mind conscience which drives these central 
masses of corpses to do whatever it is they are 
doing. -Dr. Alva Modir 


Test Name E-3703-02 

Operator: Dr. Alva Modir 

Object/item introduced: 1 cage filled with lab 
mice. Designated M-class subjects. 

Result: The cage is placed within 3 m of the 
SCP-3703 instance, and the door unlocked. 22 test 
mice succesfully leave the cage, and proceed to 
explore the interior of SCP-3703 for the next 15 
minutes. No notable incidents occur. Interior is 
deemed safe for human entry. 


| think this reaffirms the efficiency of using mice to 
determine safety for preliminary D-class testing. 
Expendable, with half the training time, and none of 
the ethics issues. -Dr. Alva Modéir 


Test Name E-3703-03 

Operator: Dr. Alva Moéir 

Subject introduced: D-84630 (Veteran of 
experimental programs with low level Safe and 
Euclid objects.) 


Procedure: D-84630 was briefed on the nature of 
SCP-3703-1, and instructed to retrieve a tissue 
sample from the enclosure. 


[BEGIN LOG] 


(D-84630 is escorted into the mobile containment 
facility by two security personnel, and comes into 
visual range of SCP-3703. The corpses are 
obscured by the hazy nature of SCP-3703-1.) 


D-84630: "You're sure I'm OK to touch this one 
right? You remember Incident alpha-six- 
pumpernickle? Y'know, the one with the toucan?" 


Dr. Alva: "Step forward, and through the barrier 
please." 


D-84630: "Alright alright... five years doing this and 
not one researcher with a sense of humor." 


(D-84630 steps through into SCP-3703-1's interior, 
and immediately stops, staring at the SCP-3703 
instance. The corpses composing SCP-3703 are 
noted to shift, facing D-84630.) 


Dr. Alva: "D-84630, please proceed to the object, 
and remove a tissue sample." 


(D-84630 is non responsive. They continue to stare 
at SCP-3703.) 


Dr. Alva: "D-84630 can you hear me?" 
(D-84630 does not respond.) 


(Dr. Alva addresses the crew manning the retrieval 
cable, and then addresses the communications 
tech.) 


Dr. Alva: "Get ready to pull her out. Are our 


seventeen 
hours 


« SCP-479 | SCP-480 | SCP-481 » 


transmissions going through?" 
(The communication tech confirms reception.) 


Dr. Alva: "Ok, D-84630, if you do not respond and 
proceed to target, we will initiate cable retrieval." 


D-84630: "You guys are seeing this right?" 


(D-84630 continues to stare at SCP-3703. The 
corpses shift so they are facing in the direction of 
the command chamber.) 


Dr. Alva: "Be more specific D-84630." 
D-84630: "They're talking. The corpses are talking." 


(SCP-3703 shifts so that the corpses are facing 
D-84630 again. 15 seconds of silence follow.) 


Dr. Alva: "Describe what you are seeing." 


D-84630: "There's a giant floating... disc? It's made 
of corpses. I'm not sure they are human, they're all 
scaly and stuff. The heads on the surface are 
looking at me and their mouths are moving... 
They're talking.” 


(SCP-3703 shifts back to facing the control room.) 


D-84630: "Okay that right there is freaking me the 
fuck out. Why do they keep looking over there?" 


Dr. Alva: "D-84630, are you sure the corpses are 
moving their mouths?" 


D-84630: "Yeah, the mouths are moving." 
(SCP-3703 shifts back to D-84630.) 


D-84630: "Doc, | don't like this. I've been doing this 
long enough to know that if I'm in the room and 


something's happening, and you can't see it, it's not 
gonna end well. Especially not when they start 
crying." 


Dr. Alva: "Please describe what the corpses are 
saying D-84630. We will initiate retrieval when 
you've finished." 


(D-84630 concentrates for 5 seconds on 
SCP-3703.) 


D-84630: "They're begging me to touch them Doc." 
(Dr. Alva signals the retrieval cable team.) 


Dr. Alva: "D-84630 please withdraw from the 
chamber." 


D-84630: "They keep talking about the passage 
needing to stay open... They look pretty pathetic. | 
kind of want to help." 


Dr. Alva: "Very good, D-84630. Please exit the 
chamber." 


D-84630: "But they need me." 
(D-84630 takes a step towards SCP-3703.) 
Dr. Alva: "Activate the retrieval cables!" 


(D-84630 begins to levitate, continuing to express a 
desire to merge with SCP-3703. The retrieval cable 
successfully activates, pulling her from 
SCP-3703-1, at which point the levitation and 
cognitohazardous effects cease.) 


[END LOG] 


Test Name E-3703-04 


Operator: Dr. Alva Moéir 

Subject introduced: D-3703-01 (Three years 
experience in experimental procedures) and 
D-3703-02 (Recently interred). 

Procedure: D-3703-01 and D-3703-02 were not 
informed of SCP-3703's nature beforehand. Both 
individuals were instructed to enter the chamber, 
and approach the entity for sample collection. 
Retrieval cables were attached to both individuals. 


[Begin Log] 


(D-3703-01 and D-3703-02 are instructed to enter 
the chamber, beginning the test.) 


D-3703-01: "That... is certainly different." 
D-3703-02: "What the fuck is that!?" 


(SCP-3703 shifts, directing the surface level 
corpses to face the two D-class.) 


D-3703-02: "Fuck no. Fuck this. Fuck you. Fuck this 
test." 


D-3703-01: "Calm down, you'll agitate it." 


D-3703-02: "What? Do you know something | don't 
know? Oh god, they're talking. The corpses are 
talking." 


Dr. Alva: "Please approach SCP-3703 for tissue 
collection." 


D-3703-01: "| have serious misgivings about this." 


(D-3703-01 moves towards SCP-3703. D-3703-02 
remains in place.) 


Dr. Alva: "02, approach SCP-3703 as instructed." 


D-3703-02: "No can do doc. I'm not going anywhere 
near that fucking thing.” 


Dr. Alva: "02, you are currently in violation of your 
agreement with the Foundation. If you do not 
comply, disciplinary action will be taken." 


[TWO MINUTES OF EXTRANEOUS DIALOGUE 
REMOVED] 


D-3703-02: "Alright, fuck, I'm going... maybe this 
won't be half bad." 


(Both D-class arrive within SCP-3703's 3 m zone of 
maximal effect.) 


D-3703-02: "It looks kind of sad." 


D-3703-01: "I... didn't think a pile of corpses could 
ever look so depressed, but you're right. They do." 


Dr. Alva: "D-3703-02 please climb SCP-3703 and 
retrieve a tissue sample." 


D-3703-02: "I... | can hear them calling. George, 
George they need our help." 


(D-3703-02 proceeds to climb SCP-3703. His foot 
makes contact with the outstretched hand of a set 
of skeletal remains, and immediately fuses with the 
appendage. Over the course of the next five 
seconds, his leg slides down further fusing into 
necrotic tissue.) 


(The retrieval cable activates but snaps.4 Notable 
anatomatical changes° occur during fusion prior to 
the onset of rapid necrosis.) 


(The corpse to which D-3703-02 has been fused 
moves further into the structure, taking him with it.) 


D-3703-02: "Oh god. Oh god. Oh god. Help me! 


Fucking Help me please! It burns! I-" 


(D-3703-02 disappears from view. Communication 
is not re-established.) 


Dr. Alva: "We're aborting the procedure, 01. Get 
out of there." 


D-3703-01: "But the passage... they can't hold it 
open anymore. We have to help... we have to..." 


(An appendage emerges from SCP-3703, making 
contact with D-3703-01's upper cranium. This 
induces fusion, drawing him into the structure. 
D-3703-01 is internalized prior to retrieval via cable. 
Once activated, the cable returns with a corpse 
consistent with remains found within SCP-3703. 
This corpse disintegrates upon exiting 
SCP-3703-1.)

Thaumaturgic Analysis 


Given the results of previous experiments, and a 
relatively high increase in degradation of the 13 
SCP-3703-1 structures in and around [LEVEL 5 
LOCATION REDACTED] exploration of SCP-3703's 
physical structure, and the interior of the associated 
hemispheric depression, was approved. This expedition; 
utilizing a robotic heli-drone with miniaturized navigation 


thrusters and audio-video recording equipment, lead to 
the discovery of SCP-3703-A. 


SCP-3703-A Exploration log 
Date: / / 


Vehicle: Solar Battery Powered Gyroscopic Drone 
with Jet Propulsion Modifications. 


Subject: SCP-3703 


Region of exploration: SCP-3701-A 


[BEGIN LOG] 


Heli-drone's camera activates, and audio recording 
begins. Tests of the drones propulsion devices 
occurs for 15 seconds, before it enters 
SCP-3703-1. 


Audio recording detects aberrant low frequency 
vibrations, playback induces beginning of 
compulsive effects in the drones operator due to 
[COGNITOHAZARD REMOVED]. Audio filters are 
adjusted to exclude these frequencies. The camera 
zooms in on SCP-3703 as the drone hovers just 
outside of the object's maximum effect range and 
captures the corpses hands arranged in 
[COGNITOHAZARD REMOVED] using the fingers. 


After 15 minutes of surveillance of SCP-3703-1's 
interior, the drone is directed into the cluster's 
maximal effect range for exploration of the 
depression along its surface. Entry into this zone 
prompts SCP-3703 to reshape, and form several 
appendages. These appedages proceed to attempt 
to grab and internalize the drone over the course of 
several minutes, forcing the operator to perform 
evasive maneuvers. Following this five minute 


period, the appendages cease their attempts to 
grab the drone, and succesful entry into SCP-3703- 
A is made.. 


Visual recording becomes slightly distorted, 
aberrant and extremely elevated VERITAS and 
Kant counter readings begin. 


Distortion ends after 5 seconds. The drone has 
changed locations, and is no longer present within 
SCP-3703-1. The attached camera records footage 
of a cylindrical tunnel, estimated to be 500 m in 
diameter, and extending beyond discernible visual 
range in either direction. The feed zooms in on the 
walls of this structure, depicting fluidic motion, and 
pink pigmentation. 


The drone swivels zooming out, as it captures a 
large number of floating streams and rivers of 
purple material, consistent with that seen exiting 
SCP-3703-1. Large branching points are visible 
from the drones location. Hundreds of small holes 
run along various points of the tunnel's walls. Both 
the branches and the holes emit constant white 
light, and have irregular curvature compared to the 
surrounding structure. 


The drone is maneuvered to inspect the streams of 
fluid matter, and then several of the adjacent holes. 
None of these holes are entered, though slight 
atmospheric changes are detected in their vicinity. 
Orientation devices indicate a lack of any 
gravitational field. 


The drone's microphone begins picking up a 
number of distant audio signatures. Of particular 
interest are a number of speech patterns matching 
the timing of previously detected low frequency 
wavelengths from within SCP-3703-1. Propulsion 
towards the source of these emissions begins, and 
lasts for the next 30 minutes. 


The first 15 minutes of travel are uneventful, though 
marked decreases in the number of branching 
points and holes along the tunnel wall are apparent. 
A small blue point of luminescent light becomes 
discernible in the direction the drone is traveling, 
and continues to grow in intensity over the following 
15 minutes.
