The SCP (Special Containment Procedures or Secure Contain Protect) Foundation (SCPF; more commonly referred to as The Foundation) is a top-secret, international, non-governmental organization dedicated to the capture and containment of all paranormal and supernatural phenomena on Earth, claiming to do so for the continued survival of global human civilization and preserving our current way of life. They usually serve as the main protagonist faction of the SCP Universe, especially in contrast to various rival/hostile Groups of Interest which oppose them.
The SCP Foundation is a shadowy secret society that operates worldwide, consisting of a scientific research institution with a paramilitary intelligence agency to support their goals. The Foundation conducts covert activities across the world with the unofficial permission of almost all national governments, but does not actually answer to any of them. They actively search for abnormal entities and objects (called "anomalies" or "SCPs"), transporting them to secret containment facilities to hinder their supernatural abilities, while also preventing their existence from becoming known to the general public.
Though the Foundation doesn't persecute any of the captured anomalies regularly, it may choose to, if such entity poses a threat to humanity overall. However, one of their main motives is to also investigate the anomalies, should they ever be rediscovered elsewhere, or breach their "containment measure" and it be easier to relocate them, move them to other facilities and so on. For example, SCP-096, also known as the "Shy Guy" had to be thoroughly investigated due to its property of somehow knowing if someone has seen its face, even if it means seeing 2 pixels of it in a video or picture.
It is unclear who gave life and flesh to the Foundation, however rumors spread through the personnel suggest it may have been The Administrator or O5 Command whose names are REDACTED.
Continuing on with that, the O5 Council is a highly REDACTED, very sophisticated group of people consisting of 13 people whose power and respect in the foundation is unparalleled. There were originally 12 O5 Council members according to several websites. The 13th member was added as a 'tiebreaker' as it was at often times there was a tie in the votes. O5-1 is often referred to as the most powerful because they would be "The Founder," and this would be wrong because The Administrator had a major contribution to the founding of the foundation. Both the O5 Council and The Administrator are often considered Immortal, or have a very long life. The O5 Council often will have in many different narratives have Humanoid like SCP as members and Humans themselves in there because of circumstances of that situation, often each member is under some anomalous effect that gives them immortality in some way or another.
Speaking of The Administrator, he or she is the only person higher than the O5 Council. Now there is a chance, maybe not as high of a chance of the O5 Council being immortal, there has been a slight chance that there have been several "The Administrator's" over the existence of the foundation. Each one going by a different name, but all mainly go by The Administrator. More information on the Administrator includes that they are a powerful reality bender, pretty similar to SCP-343 "God", Immortal, bends reality, time, space-time, or almost anything else you can think of. They come from another plane of existence or another dimension. Any information that you can find on The Administrator is often going to be a 50/50 chance of being correct.
Now for the pillar of the foundation, Class A personnel, the top of the pyramid (besides The Administrator, Class S personnel, we aren't going to dive into that though) they aren't allowed to interact with any SCP no matter how dangerous they are, belongs only to the O5 Council. Class B personnel, are allowed to interact with SAFE class SCP and are for Site Directors and other high ranking personnel with level 4 clearance cards. Class C personnel are the MTF units and other combative roles in the foundation. Class D personnel, one of the most known, Class 'Disposable' is often used for Keter class SCP experiments. Class E personnel, the very bottom, Class D personnel who have just come out of an experiment ALIVE and are going into a medical test to make sure they are ready to go for the next experiment.
SCP leveling system, SAFE class includes the notorious SCP-999, "The Tickle Monster," the easiest to contain and requires the fewest if no resources at all to contain. EUCLID class requires a few more resources than SAFE class, such as one of the more known SCPs, SCP-173. KETER class, one of the Hardest to contain, takes significantly more resources to contain. THAUMIEL class, so powerful they can be used to contain other SCP, takes little to no effort or resources to contain. OLYMPIA class, giant and powerful, such as the "Alien Deer," very hard to contain and takes way, way, way more resources than KETER class. APOLLYON class, impossible to contain and will often cause XK-class end of the world scenarios. Those are the 6 main classes of SCP. Although there are many more, it would take way longer to talk about that than just these six.
There are over 100 different mobile task forces such as Alpha-1, which guards the O5 Council. E-11 which deals with several things around a facility, most often though they will be dealing with SCP breaches. Nu-7 which combats Chaos Insurgency, is one of the lowest in the MTF hierarchy system. Now, for some of these we have several pages for those MTF specifically. I will not be talking about ███████ due to security reasons and how redacted the squad is. If you want to find more about ███████ then please go ahead and search some stuff up about it, just be sure you have above omni clearance.
