SCP-184

The Architect, known by the SCP Foundation as SCP-184 and, to the higher-ups of the Foundation, SCP-001, is a dodecahedron-shaped metallic object with the anomalous ability to expand any room it is put in. After whatever room it is in is long enough, it begins making "copies" of that room, initially being exact replicas of the room to "replicas" made out of random objects and materials.

==== Discovery ====
SCP-184 was originally found inside Kowloon Walled City in Hong Kong, where it was discovered that SCP-184 was responsible for the city's bizarre growth.
Within Kowloon Walled City, it was known as "The Builder" and was in the personal possession of an unknown individual prior to its containment by the SCP Foundation. It was kept in one of the oldest areas of the walled city, a temple.
Agents Gordon Richards, Lev, Parks, Henry, Paul and several other members of Mobile Task Force unit Zeta-9 "Mole Rats" were sent into Kowloon Walled City to recover the object. Agents Henry and Paul were attacked by the civilians living inside Kowloon, with Paul being critically injured to the point where he had to leave to seek medical attention. Henry was dragged off, and was shown the large-scale effects of SCP-184 duplication, causing him to go insane, and run past Richards and the other MTF members before crashing through a wall and falling to his death.
The members of Zeta-9 would begin to interrogate civilians who live in Kowloon about the object, using threats and methods of force to get people talking. There, they found from Long-Wen, an elder of Kowloon, that the object was located in the temple, and that only "the worthy" can withstand its effects and not become overwhelmed. He said that Henry had witnessed the effects in order for him to convince the others not to take The Builder, but was not worthy.
Richards, Parks, Paul and Lev entered the temple, and began to explore the temple. The temple was massive, having many of its rooms altered and rearranged due to The Builder's effects. Eventually, they would discover the exact same altar room, but it was made out of wood. While they were exploring, the SCP Foundation designated the object SCP-184.
Eventually, the team had to be split up at a branch, with Richards increasingly becoming more unwell as the hallways changed in shape, material and size. He would run out of food and water, and would lose track of time. His suit would increasingly be damaged, to the point where it can't produce any water and the radio system is busted. He would continue to look for SCP-184, and would reach the top of the shaft, but failed to destroy it, succumbing to the effects of SCP-184.
Despite the loss of Richards, SCP-184 was successfully recovered by Zeta-9, and Gordon Richards would be declared KIA.
