SCP-173 is a sculpture constructed from concrete and rebar with traces of Krylon brand spray paint. SCP-173 is animate and extremely hostile. The object cannot move while within a direct line of sight, and as such at least 3 personnel assigned to enter the containment area are instructed to alert one another before blinking during testing or cleaning. SCP-173 attacks by snapping the neck at the base of the skull.
SCP-173 is contained in a rectangular chamber secured with two gates in Containment II to prevent accidental breaches. In case of a containment breach, foundation personnel dispatched to contain SCP-173 need to pick up the SCP-173 Cage located within the combative armory. Once SCP-173 is found, foundation personnel are required to maintain a constant line-of-sight with SCP-173. Failure to do so will result in immediate death. It will take 30 seconds for SCP-173 to be sent back to its containment once the cage is placed around SCP-173. If the site is experiencing a Blackout, foundation personnel sent to contain SCP-173 must be equipped with Night Vision Goggles.
When a player starts looking at SCP-173 they begin to feel an urge to blink. A timer will appear in the top left of your screen, counting down from 6 seconds. At the end of the timer you will blink and the timer will restart. You are also able to blink manually by pressing "B" on your keyboard. If at any point nobody has a direct line of sight with SCP-173 or the line of sight is interrupted by blinking, SCP-173 will move towards the nearest person in sight and kill them if it gets close enough. During a Blackout, SCP-173 will kill you instantly unless you are equipped with Night Vision Goggles.
