Dr. Wondertainment

Dr. Wondertainment is the name given for an anonymous entity in the SCP Foundation series. It is either a reality bending individual or a business that supplies an assortment of toys and gadgets that exhibit anomalous properties (many of which are contained by the SCP Foundation).
The group is one of the most well-known elements of the SCP universe, being featured in numerous articles. It is one of the many "SCP-001" proposals and the overarching protagonistic faction of the "What a Wonderful World" canon. It also plays major roles in the "Cool War", "Adventures in Capitalism" and "Vend-a-Friend" series. Dr. Wondertainment is also often depicted as the archenemy of The Factory.
==History==
===Possible Origins===
It is unclear who Dr. Wondertainment is or when exactly it was formed. Although the Foundation suggests it could be the name of either the individual that founded the company or perhaps the actual name of the company itself.
====Spark of Wonder====
In the early times, a man named Polyakov discovered the plant notes of Pangloss and began farming them. After Pangloss took notice of this he rewarded Polyakov by teaching him how to use the Flame of Wonder present between the world and the living beings. Polyakov used his new ability to create machines and miracles of wonder which earned him the title of Wonder-Maker.
However, one night some people broke inside the workshop of Polyakov, with the intention of stealing his wonders, but when one member of their group named Wan began messing with one of the complex objects it exploded on her face. This caused the burglars to flee from the now partially destroyed workshop, leaving behind a wounded Wan. Polyakov woke up because of the explosion and when he entered his workshop he became dismayed that most of his creations were destroyed before finding Wan unconscious. Holding no resentment towards her he healed the young woman by replacing her damaged body parts with metal. He taught her just like Pangloss had taught him. She became his disciple until Polyakov retired due to his age leaving Wan to use her new powers to explore the universe.
====Nobody Wants To See You Succeed====
The Dr. Wondertainment company was founded by Timothy Griffin. Timothy had been a child prodigy who had a talent and desire to create anomalous toys, but later on he had abandoned this dream and began working as an old bureaucrat. However, Nobody took notice of Timothy's brilliant inventions and by secretly sending him letters of encouragement Timothy and his coworkers banded together to create anomalous toys for the children around the world.
====What a Wonderful World====
This reality was created by the original Dr. Wondertainment Cornelius Młynarczyk as his own reality was being destroyed. He sought to make this new version of the company be free of his own corruption and exist purely for the entertainment of others. Cornelius proceeded to replace his doomed reality with this new one and let his niece, Holly Light, replace him as the new Dr. Wondertainment.
In this new reality, the company of Doctor Wondertainment instead of being created by Cornelius it was founded in 1909 by Chester Williams, an African-American, non-anomalous man from Boston, and was later joined by magician Maria Herring who helped in creating magical products. Williams was the original holder of the Dr. Wondertainment mantle and the face of the company while Herring mostly helped behind the scenes. The company was first started in a back alley since that was all that Williams could afford, but thanks to its success Dr. Wondertainment began to grow but they were then warned that magical stuff wouldn't last as they got bigger so they should instead stay low from public view. Because of this, the duo bought from an extradimensional estate agent some interdimensional space in the back of the shop and as time went on the space grew and became known as Wonder World where the employees hired would help create many wonderful products.
====The Trashfire====
The company of Doctor Wondertainment was founded by African-American toymaker John Schuster in 1845 in Chicago after he left his job at The Factory. He became determined to spread the joy of Wonder and Entertainment throughout the world, and so he became the original Dr. Wondertainment, creating the platonic thought form that would become known as Dr. Wondertainment. Schuster was succeeded by Dr. Mortimer Carlyle from Marshall Carlyle and Darke after he was moved by the spirit of Wondertainment into spreading joy and turned the Dr. Wondertainment brand into a proper company, but it also became more capitalistic in nature, in order to establish more market dominance.
====CryogenChaos' Comment Tales====
The man known as Dr. Wondertainment was originally known as Mr. Funland who built and owned the Funland amusement park which would be designated SCP-821. However, as his Funland failed due to competition and the lack of interest in his park, Mr. Funland was forced to close it down on April 11th of 1989. Not knowing what else to do, Mr. Funland contemplated what business to start next, until deciding to open a toy company since the children who visited his park were always enamored by his toys. With this in mind he founded his new company under the name of Dr. Wondertainment and began producing countless wondrous products.
=== Possible Endings ===
==== Quiet Days ====
One day, for unknown reasons, every single anomaly which ever existed was either neutralized or normalized, much to the shock of all of the GoIs. This also included all of Wondertainment's products which stopped working after their paranormal properties were gone. However, the company still kept on as they eventually began releasing other normal toys, but because the anomalous world had ended, the new toys failed to impress the same the way as the previous ones did.
====Mission Statement====
When a universe devouring entity began to consume the Foundation's universe the Foundation decided to move the solar system to another universe in order to survive. While that was going on, the Dr. Wondertainment company under a new director seemingly began struggling as their new Wondertoys failed to impress anyone anymore.
==== 1 ====
As the entire world was slowly being destroyed, Dr. Wondertainment kept producing entertaining products for everyone. The company tried its best to lessen the pain that was being brought on everyone, giving them numerous gifts in order to give them some happiness before meeting the end of everything. As the entire multiverse was destroyed, the company and its director passed away peacefully as they remembered the temporary smiles they brought to those who were suffering.
==== Snippets of an Unveiled World ====
After the "Broken Masquerade" occurred in which the anomalies and the GoIs became public knowledge, Dr. Wondertainment was forced to recall most of their products as people were getting hurt from their anomalous products and assured the public that they would create more child-friendly toys.
====they'll always find a Way in====
During the destruction of the world brought by SCP-3916, a species of locusts that can rapidly reproduce asexually and devour any matter in their path, Wonder World attempted to take in as many refugees as possible. Unfortunately, SCP-3916 were eventually able to access the pocket dimension by attaching themselves to a man who just arrived and immediately began consuming all of Wonder World.
==Organization==
Dr. Wondertainment follows a list of essential key concepts to its creations: 
*It is a Capitalist Construct.
*It makes toys aimed towards children.
*It is "childish and playful" (whether or not this claim is true is up for debate).
The Company produces a number of "children's toys" and magical inventions meant as a form of entertainment to express imagination and fun. Although some of the products are considered safe and harmless (such as SCP-1997 and SCP-3301), others are considered terrible (such as SCP-1799), dangerous (such as SCP-609), or even controversial (pretty much every one of its products). 
Despite its reputation, Dr. Wondertainment considers itself well-meaning to its purpose and does not mean to create its products as a form of weapons, rather as a form of curiosity.
==Ranks and Structure==
The Dr. Wondertainment is a company comprised of around 15,000 workers most of which possess anomalous capabilities and economic knowledge that allows them to create all sorts of products. The CEO is the one who holds the title of Dr. Wondertainment as individual and it can be passed down to any successor the current holder chooses. Along with the title the holder will also receive a magical power known as the "Wonderlight".
The successor, however, would have to be approved by a committee comprised of the heads of all departments. Some of these departments included: the Toy Creation Department, the Sweets & Consumables Department, the Construction Department, the Public & Human Relations Department and the R&D Department.
==Relationship with anomalous factions==
Dr. Wondertainment claims that it has an affiliation with the SCP Foundation after the latter first contained the company's specially branded Super Paper (dubbed SCP-445 by the Foundation). The SCP Foundation formed a special department dedicated to solely study products of Dr. Wondertainment. This department was known as GoI-386 Research & Investigation Department with Dr. Justine Everwood acting as its director.
The group known as Gamers Against Weed have created their own line of misters as a parody of Wondertainment's line. Apparently, Dr. Wondertainment is unaware of this, since when Herman Fuller tried to start his own line of Little Misters, he was threatened with a lawsuit. Wondertainment was also involved with other several lawsuits with Prometheus Labs.
Dr. Wondertainment has an extreme animosity and hatred towards The Factory due to their past history and can be considered as archenemies. They also seem to have a complicated relationship since they had an agreement that The Factory would contribute to Dr. Wondertainment by providing products but this agreement was eventually dissolved by Holly Light.
The Wondertainment company once made a deal with Wood Star Studios, a Oneroi film studio, to make an animated series about the fictional character of Isabel Wondertainment and her adventures in order to cheer up the poor children who were forced to work for The Factory their entire lives and had no access to any form of entertainment.
The Chaos Insurgency once attempted to take over the company of Dr. Wondertainment by having their double agent Jubal Gollancz to become their puppet leader. However, Gollancz became overwhelmed by the spirit of the company and abandoned the Insurgency, becoming a full member of Dr. Wondertainment.
Among their employees, Dr. Wondertainment has also hired a number of Are We Cool Yet? members mostly due to their ability at creating anomalous objects.
Manna Charitable Foundation seems to have a mutual and friendly relationship with Wondertainment as it has accepted various donations from the company in form of anomalous and non-anomalous products.
Dr. Wondertainment has a mutual agreement with Marshall, Carter and Dark Ltd. since the company is known to supply the English auction house with various and even limited products.
Dr. Wondertainment seems to also have a good relationship with the Serpent's Hand. It has even been suggested that there are Ways, interdimensional roads connected to the Wanderer's Library, leading to Wonder World.
Based on the images inscribed on SCP-1564-3, the ancient Mekhanites don't like Dr. Wondertainment due to them using their products to get their worshippers away from the teachings of their religion.
The criminal organization known as the Chicago Spirit have used Wonder World for storage from 1929 to 1932 as part of an agreement that the Spirit would protect the company in exchange. Although Williams was fine with the deal Herring was completely against collaborating with ruthless criminals and as she screwed with the Chicago Spirit, Richard Chappell decided that it wasn't worth the trouble and dissolved the agreement.
Between Dr. Wondertainment and Wilson's Wildlife Solutions there haven't been that many interactions, apart from SCP-3879's case, mostly due to the Foundation prohibiting WWS from interacting with the company.
Dr. Wondertainment is a notable presenter in Deer College's bi-annual career fair and has hired from time to time from its alumni.
It appears that Dr. Wondertainment is on good terms with Anderson Robotics, as after scrapping their projects relating to SCP-3960 they sold them to Wondertainment.
Dr. Wondertainment also has a mutual agreement with Ambrose Restaurant in which the toy company sells to Ambrose toys for the Restaurant to give to clients along with children's food in a "Happy Meal" style.
Dr. Wondertainment is one of the many sponsors of "Professor Abnormal's Science Lab" educational show for children.
At some point, an iteration of Nobody was both the director of Dr. Wondertainment, and the Critter of AWCY?. He was later killed during the "Cool War".
After the Disney Company discovered the source from which the Wondertainment products originated from and began reverse-engineering them, it sought to force Wondertainment into a deal in which the company would distribute the products as "Disneytainment Toys".
Dr. Wondertainment was a trusted insurer of Goldbaker-Reinz Insurance Group Ltd., which relieved the toy company some of its operational risk and allowed it to take the risk of renovation. Dr. Wondertainment also provided revenue stream to the insurance company, making their relationship mutual.

*In "The 12 Days of Site 87's Christmas", when Dr. Sinclair questioned a Krampus which she had summoned about St. Nicholas, the creature informed her of what it knew about him, and implied that Nicholas may have had some relation with Wondertainment.
*In the universe of SCP-6001 where the Compendium, a benevolent amalgam organization of different GoIs, took over the world and declared worldwide peace with all anomalies, Dr. Wondertainment was part of the Charity which was also comprised by the Manna Charitable Foundation and was one of the GoIs that made up the Compendium.
*Amazing! Co. from the RPC Authority Wiki is clearly based off Dr. Wondertainment.
*According to the "List of Common Anomalous Misconceptions", Dr. Wondertainment's CEO is an actual doctor with a PhD in Cultural Studies.
