Lore Events

Lore Events are unique on-site events, organized by Lore & Story Team, which are ways to logically and creatively explain large development and administrative changes in the Foundation. Further information about lore events can be found in the #installation_command discord channel and will usually be documented in more detail in the SCP lore records by ScD (if related to SCPs). This page will only document major lore events in the post-shutdown era of Pathos. The reason behind this is due to the numerous amounts of minor and poorly documented lore events that only explain a minor new feature. 
==Lore Event 001 - SCP-1048 Revamp==
Lore Event 001 (October 27-November 3, 2023) was the first major lore event after Pathos' revival and centered around the creation of the new SCP-1048 instances. Development-wise, SCP-1048 was very outdated and required a revamp, new variants and massive improvements to the current instances were created. The lore idea was that the main bear was collecting parts around the site, and from other SCPs (SCP-914, SCP-131, etc.) to recreate its instances and create new ones.

==Lore Event 002 - SCP-1048s Plans==
Lore Event 002 (January 25th-January 29th, 2024) was an event where SCP-1048 and its instances began to come up with a plan to recruit hostile SCPs (SCP-457, SCP-106, & SCP-682) to help fight against the Foundation. Eventually a mass containment failure occurred consisting of all hostile SCPs around the facility. SCP-106, SCP-173, SCP-457, SCP-682, and SCP-610-2 were all breached and caused mass chaos around the site. The purpose of this event was to plant the seeds to show that the older version of Site Epsilon was majorly flawed and easy to upheave. This lore event paved the way for subsequent lore events, such as the theft of SCP-173 and SCP-106s plans to destroy Epsilon, necessitating a new Site Epsilon.

==Theft of SCP-173==
On February 27th, 2024, Pathos was met with a hostile raid by the Chaos Insurgency. The Chaos Insurgency was able to break into Site Epsilon and take SCP-173 out to their base, Compound Merlin. There they did many scientific experiments on it. Many flaws in Site Epsilon’s infrastructure were noticed by the Foundation Command. Lore task force Epsilon-11 brought back SCP-173 on 3/25/24. The purpose of this event was to introduce the new GoI, the Chaos Insurgency, lead to Lore Event 003, and the revamp of SCP-173. This lore event was not formally documented but is important because it directly leads to Lore Event 003.

==Lore Event 003 - Destruction of Site Epsilon==
Main Page: Destruction of Site Epsilon 
Lore Event 003 (February 27th - March 16th, 2024) began shortly after the CI theft of SCP-173, where SCP-106 was spotted putting its tar-like substance on the pillars of Site Epsilon. SCP-106 was aware of the previous successful attacks on the site and probably realized instead of its normal strategies of killing Foundation Personnel, it would be better to destroy the entire installation. SCP-106 was seen planning with SCP-610-2, making most other neutral SCPs (SCP-082, SCP-049, SCP-527, SCP-1048) began to host search parties, interviews, and spy missions with ScD to stop SCP-106 from destroying their home. Throughout this, SCP-106 acted completely differently from normal, not attempting to kill players but to deter them. SCP-106 also targeted schematics of a new Site Epsilon design. It all climaxed during the event where SCP-610-1 (Hivemind) and -2 instances, SCP-1048, SCP-682, and SCP-106 all teamed up and destroyed Site Epsilon. The site was evacuated to submarines and after six more months (lore wise), Site Epsilon was repaired and Site Phi had some upgrades. The Research Subjects were let loose. 
The purpose of this event was to set up the creation of the new Site Epsilon through the destruction of the old one. The old Site Epsilon was outdated in code and building style and was running out of space.

== Lore Event 004 - Arrival of SCP-096 ==
thumb|Full event
Around the middle of July 2024, SCP-106's chamber sustained heavy damage and SCP-106 moved to live in the caves. SCP-106 began to act strangely afterwards, stalking people and rarely attacking them. Around this time Void Guardian activity increased and they began searching more heavily for The Artifact. On 4 August 2024, there was an attempt to transfer classified information about SCP-096. On 11 August 2024, a video was released showing a submarine with a shaking crate in it. The crate was presumed to have SCP-939 (SCP-096 was not in the crate.) in it and the submarine matched the one used in the Destruction of Site Epsilon. Later on the same day, a list of things to import was released, showing items likely needed by what was whatever was in the crate to survive and a SC5 lock box. This lock box included a picture of SCP-096's face. Over the next few days, multiple alerts arrived of a emergency shipment of arriving to Pathos. On 17 August 2024, SCP-096 arrived at pathos with and breached due to the bears showing a image of SCP-096.

== Lore Event 005 - Arrival of SCP-617 ==
On 30 August 2024, the other crate with SCP-096's shipment was unloaded at the Installation Command. However, when opened no SCP was found. Shortly afterwards, digging sounds were heard above Site Phi and all SCP-617 instances were found in front of Pandora. They then went around, insulting people and SCPs, and other random stuff.
