SCP-2331

SCP-2331, also known as Scravecrow, is a character in the SCP Foundation mythos. He is a scarecrow-like entity whose sole purpose is to organize raves for people to participate during October. He is currently uncontained and was classified as Euclid.
==Biography==
SCP-2331 was originally a deity named Jack responsible for bringing the season of autumn and for Halloween. However, as time went on he saw how Halloween became subjected to the modern era, being overwritten from Jack's original purpose for it. Eventually Jack decided to retire and with the help of a friend decided to host raves around October in various places of North America. Using his powers he would manifest himself alongside equipment necessary to organize raves and take the role of the DJ as people of various ages participated. He mostly manifested in big indoors locations near institutions of higher education such as trade schools, universities, and colleges, and although he hosted raves more frequently in the month of October he occasionally organized raves in any time of the year.
This activity however caught the attention of the SCP Foundation who designated him as SCP-2331 and his raves as SCP-2331-P. Seeing him as a threat to normalcy the Foundation began going after SCP-2331 in order to capture him and prevent any manifestation of SCP-2331-P instances. In a couple of raves some agents were sent to detain him to no avail as the attendants go in their way, but Researcher Witzke was able to come into contact with him only for him to hand over to the researcher his business card with his friend's phone number. Despite his friend trying to convince the Foundation to let him be the Foundation is still actively pursuing SCP-2331, employing Mobile Task Force Kappa-Theta to try to catch him during his raves while Research Team Theta-Theta try to predict future manifestations of SCP-2331-P, and amnesticizing all participants.
During Halloween, SCP-239 wanting to celebrate altered reality into a Halloween environment. In this alternate reality SCP-2331 was turned into a normal but famous DJ who was organizing a performance inside a barn where numerous SCPs who had been turned into teenagers attended. The performance was briefly interrupted by a fight between the couple Iris and Abe. Once the fight was resolved, Scravecrow resumed the music, but as he played he was confronted by SCP-106, who was left unaffected by the reality change, and dissolved his head, killing him and starting the incoming carnage. This alternate reality was turned back to normal after Dr. Clef stabbed 239 with SCP-668 when she attempted to become friends with him, leaving 2331 along with everyone else to dismiss the entire experience as nothing more than a dream.

==== The Melody Of Autumn, Passing Into Winter ====
As years went on, SCP-2331 had grown tired of trying to bring the old nature of Halloween through organizing raves as this tactic wasn't working and decided to forcefully achieve his goals by taking over the world. His first step was to break inside the site containing SCP-2992, a man possessed by a god-like entity designated SCP-2992-1 capable of making music it shares earworms for listeners. SCP-2331 made a deal with SCP-2992 who proceeded to transfer SCP-2992-1 to the former's body, allowing 2331 to make people continually think about his music.
SCP-2331 then went to look out for various GoIs such Are We Cool Yet? and the Oneiroi Collective in order to convince them to help him in taking down the Foundation and reshape the world to fit their common visions. The GoIs agreed to collaborate and soon formed a plan to strike the Foundation. They went to Site 1969 at night and after the Oneiroi took possession of the sleeping Foundation personnel, the AWCY? members attacked the rest who weren't sleeping. Thanks to the chaos, SCP-2331 was able to slip by unnoticed and made his way to SCP-1969, a disco ball that emitted light which penetrated all barriers and could kill all life on Earth via radiation poisoning. SCP-2331 took SCP-1969 out of its container and used it to replace his pumpkin head, and rebuild it so that instead of spreading radiation it would spread the rave of SCP-2331.
SCP-2331 soon took over the world and established a vast kingdom with large towers where everyone danced to his electronic music. Those who danced under 2331's music were divided into lords, ladies, servants, sellers, merchants, rave fashionistas and those humans who aggressively attempted to get close to their new god but would never get to see his face. SCP-2331 had the entire world participate to his raves, but during one of the royal raves he witnessed his subjects violently execute a young violins due to the usage of instruments being long forbidden. This slowly made 2331 realize that this wasn't what he was really hoping for and left his home to go outside.
He went to a part of the land where the last remnants of the Foundation had buried themselves to escape 2331's control but were found by his faithful and butchered despite him never giving such orders. He felt remorse for what he had done and the consequences of his actions and drug up a hole for him to lay inside as form of apology. 2331 began wishing that things go back to how they were back before all of this when everyone was genuinely happy but he knew that it was too late. He eventually got out of the hole and made his way to the empty street where he found his friend holding his old pumpkin head. Following their reunion, 2331 allowed hid friend to remove the disco ball from his body and put back in place his original head, making 2331 feel whole again. The two then decided to leave this all behind and allow humanity to be free and rebuild their society back to how it was.
==Appearance==
SCP-2331 has the appearance of a hay-filled scarecrow with a carved pumpkin with no neck for the head which has an internal glow of fluorescent blue in low light conditions.
==Powers and Abilities==
SCP-2331 appears to be some sort of minor deity who was previously responsible for the season of autumn. He possesses great reality bending powers, being capable of manifesting himself alongside equipment necessary to for a medium-style festival such as lights set and electronic music which are known as SCP-2331-P. He is capable of manipulating the space within SCP-2331-P as he could change the humidity of the air, manipulating the texture and size of walls and also manifesting nonpoisonous colored smoke, glowsticks, candy and drugs. The Foundation believes that he also possesses the power to affect the minds of people due to the attendants quickly participating in his raves and guarding him from unwanted intruders. He appears to be immortal as he was able to detach his pumpkin head from his body and make it explode into fluorescent green smoke while manifesting another head under desk. He could also change his voice by using voice sample. SCP-2331 doesn't have a voice of his own and manipulates the elements of forests to communicate with others.
After acquired both SCP-2992-1 and SCP-1969, SCP-2331 was able to make listeners constantly think about his music and he could spread this effect all around the world. With this, he was able to take over humanity and force them to participate in all of his raves which they would enjoy regardless of their actual feelings. SCP-2331 would eventually give up on his newfound powers after growing tired of his reign.
==Personality==
Not much is known about the personality of SCP-2331 but he is shown to be an energetic entity who loves organizing raves for people to participate and party on. His only purpose is to organize energetic and thrilling raves in order for people to enjoy October and Halloween as he originally had envisioned. Despite this partygoer personality he made sure to not get anyone in trouble as he doesn’t hurt anyone or cause violence in his parties and when police show up he almost immediately demanifests himself alongside his equipment as if he never was there.
However, as his raves weren't really working how he had hoped for, SCP-2331 took extreme measures and decided to confront the Foundation to steal a couple of their anomalies in order to acquire power to allow him to finally accomplish his goals. With the assistance of both AWCY? and the Onerioi, SCP-2331 stole the anomalies and gained the power to take control of humanity and force them all to celebrate his raves. Despite finally accomplishing his goals, through years SCP-2331 would come regret this decision as his followers became obsessed with his music and without any order would mercilessly killed anyone who opposed, including the Foundation which was completely destroyed. Seeing that he was losing himself into this situation and that this was nothing that he had hoped for, SCP-2331 left his position as a god of raves and began wishing that things were to how they were before all of this. His friend, the Kind Man, convinced him to abandon his reign he had build and return to his former self, promising him that things would eventually go back to normal.
