Item #: SCP-5500 	Level 0/5500
Object Class: Apollyon	Classified
Special Containment Procedures: Eschatological Lifted Veil protocols are in place due to SCP-5500. The general public has knowledge of anomalous phenomena and the existence of the Foundation, due to the apocalyptic state of the multiverse.
All Foundation research is focused on attempting to find the malefactor responsible for the death of all SCP-5500-Ω instances. All current motives and persons associated with the deaths of 5500-Omega instances are under investigation. Scarlet Letter Investigative Protocols are utilized throughout this file and related documentation to convey information.
Description: SCP-5500 refers to an ongoing ZK-Class Reality Failure Scenario affecting at least 9,245 universes, as a result of the deaths of several instances of SCP-5500-Ω.
SCP-5500-Ω are humanoid, possibly human, entities that exist in a reality above the greater multiverse observed by the Foundation. These entities have the capability to alter our reality and adjacent realities through the medium of creative writing, though the amount of influence they have is unclear.
The death of an SCP-5500-Ω instance causes severe metaphysical backlash to the universe or entities it had a part in influencing. The broadness of the sphere of influence varies, as does the corresponding level of destruction— the apparently natural death of SCP-5500-Ω-1 resulted in the deaths of at least four individuals and three SCP objects, while the murder of SCP-5500-Ω-56 resulted in the complete destruction of the Horizon Initiative in all observed universes, as well as the depopulation of the United Kingdom in the Baseline universe.
SCP-5500-A is the third iteration of a device which was meant to observe SCP-5500-Ω instances in their reality.

=== The Hard Copy ===
Abstract: But we found out that there is a God, and it is SCP-001. And it’s a bunch of horror writers. 
Those are the words that close out the infamous S. Andrew Swann Proposal— at least, the portion available to the larger Foundation. God is real. But if what's being said is true, then God is, at the very least, capable of writing, of thought. And perhaps, capable of sight.
Utilizing knowledge Astral Projection Theory pioneered by the Department of Occult Studies and the Global Occult Coalition's Sunspotting Program, as well as advances made during Operation WALLBREAK in 2023, Project S.W.A.N.N. aims to utilize Foundation resources in order to directly observe, and possibly control, the so-called "Horror Author" entities.
=== Utilization: ===
To be blunt: the S.W.A.N.N. Engine temporarily kills its user. Through the cessation of all vital signs for at least two minutes, the soul is allowed to leave the body. Utilizing a Metaphysical Upwards Funnel, the S.W.A.N.N. Engine siphons the soul to a higher plane of existence.
In several cases, this higher plane would mean a place in a Nibbanic or Heavenly state. However, the S.W.A.N.N. engine allows for temporary egress of consciousness from the Known Foundation Multiverse (KFM) entirely, into a reality occupied by the 'horror author' entities proposed in S. Andrew Swann's proposal, with the consciousness of the individual in the S.W.A.N.N. engine temporarily riding along with the consciousness of one of these entities, able to observe but unable to communicate or interact— at least, in the first iteration.
The next iteration of the S.W.A.N.N. Engine is in development, with the goal of allowing us to communicate with the Author-Entities, giving suggestions on how to mold Narrative Forces to benefit the Foundation.
=== Testing Log: ===
The first test of the S.W.A.N.N. Engine was conducted using Dr. Katherine Sinclair as a test subject. The following is a transcript of events as observed by Dr. Sinclair's colleagues at the time.
Dr. Sinclair: I am within the Engine’s compartment. Ready for liftoff.
Dr. West: Introducing gaseous agent. Time is 15:32 on April 1st, 2024.
Researcher Reynolds: You had better be able to get her back, John.
Dr. Sinclair: I’m going to be fine, Monty. I promise.
Dr. Bright: Gaseous agent should take effect in three… two… now.
Dr. West: Vital signs negative. She’s gone.
Dr. Bright: Starting the clock. Will activate revival at three minutes. Brain scan on?
Reynolds: There’s activity all over the place. Pain receptors are going haywire.
Dr. Bright: Get the readout.
PRINTOUT:
SENSATION: PAIN detected in RIGHT HAND
SENSATION: IRRITATION and IMPATIENCE
SENSATION: SIGHT: SMALL ROOM. TWO CHAIRS. DESK.
SENSATION: SIGHT: ONE HUMANOID INDIVIDUAL. ERROR
SENSATION: ERROR. HYPERREALITY.
ERROR: HYPERREALITY
ERROR: MENTAL FAILURE IMMINENT
ERROR: SENSATION: MIGRAINE
ERROR: SENSATION: INTERNAL MONOLOGUE
Reynolds: Get her out. Now.
Dr. Bright: Flushing agent. Oxygenating room. Adrenaline incoming.
VITAL SIGNS RETURNING
IRREGULAR BRAINWAVES DETECTED
COGNITOHAZARDOUS VOCAL PATTERNS DETECTED. DO NOT OPEN COMPARTMENT.
REPEAT: DO NOT OPEN COMPARTMENT
Dr. West: I— I can feel— fuck why can I feel it?!
Reynolds: My head, my head’s splitting open—
Dr. Bright: What the fuck is going on here? I— I’m not feeling anything, but my colleagues— hold on.
FLUSHING METAPHYSICAL FUNNEL
BRAIN ACTIVITY RETURNING TO NORMAL
Reynolds: Jesus, her hair’s gone white. Katherine?
Dr. Sinclair: I.. saw it, Monty. I saw… God. They had a cast on their arm. I—
Reynolds: Jesus, her throat is hemorrhaging. What was that?
Dr. Bright: If I had to guess? A hyperreal entity transposing itself onto one of us. I… fuck, this is… fuck.
Due to the S.W.A.N.N Engine’s Role in the Murders of all known SCP-5500-Omega instances, the Foundation will no longer sanction its use until the culprit is found.
