SCP-001 The Gate Guardian

The Gate Guardian | Purposed By : Doctor Alto Clef

Containment Class : Euclid/Keter Class

**Special Containment Procedures:** Because of the nature of SCP-001, no containment procedures are necessary. 24/7 monitoring of SCP-001 is to take place from a safe (10 km+) distance from a pre-determined location (Site 0). The location of Site 0 is known only to the current SCP Administrator and the single Overseer-level Agent of Abrahamic faith (O5-14) assigned to monitor SCP-001 from Site 0. Said Agent is authorized to take any action necessary should SCP-001 become active, and is required to immediately alert the Administrator and all other Overseer-level agents should SCP-001 show any change in behavior, as this may constitute the beginning of a PATMOS XK-class end-of-the-world scenario.

**Description:** SCP-001 is a humanoid entity, approximately seven hundred (700) cubits in height, located in an undisclosed location near the intersection of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. The following features are known about the entity:

* A number of luminous, wing-like appendages emerging from the shoulders, back, temples, ankles, and wrists of the entity. Although an accurate count has never been established, most observers place the number of wings at anywhere from two (2) through one hundred and eight (108), with the mean number being four (4).
* A weapon, possibly a sword or knife (SCP-001-2). The weapon appears to emit flames at a temperature rivaling that of the sun, based on spectrographic analysis, although there appear to be no destructive effects from the intense heat on the surrounding area. Any entity that approaches within 1 km of SCP-001 is immediately struck by the weapon and obliterated from existence. Any and all hostile actions taken towards SCP-001 have resulted in the annihilation of the attacker, regardless of range

Each day was composed of a 3-hour session, with the test on January 21st being run from 9:00 a.m. to noon, while the test on January 22nd was run from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

2023 Overton's 300

The **2023 Overton's 300** was a 200 lap/300 mile motor racing event held Chicagoland Speedway, in Joliet, Illinois as part of the 2023 AT&T Champ Car World Series season. The event emerged as a replacement of the cancelled Sunday race from the doubleheader in Chicago the week before, and took place on 3-4 June, 2023 as the tenth round of the season out of twenty.

Kunimitsu Kinoshita entered the race as the defending Indycar World Champion, and current championship leader. The last race winner in Chicagoland, Hazel Lacasse, was not present to defend her race win, having moved to Formula One in 2023.

## Background

The race in Chicagoland emerged as a quick replacement for the doubleheader event in downtown Chicago the week before. The Sunday race was rained out, forcing the series to either accept the cancellation, or bring up an alternate venue. With the 1.5 mile oval being open for the following weekend, and being in close proximity to both Chicago for ticketgoers, and Indianapolis, Indiana for the teams to turn around equipment for a different race, the decision was made to keep the series in the greater Chicago area for a second week. Ticketholders for the Sunday race in downtown Chicago were given first dibs for tickets at Chicagoland, with all but around 6,000 redeeming their alternative ticket package for the oval event. With the remainder of the tickets being reserved for walk-ins on race day, the venue managed to sell a total of 38,000 tickets for the race, a massive success given what was ultimately a five day notice.

### Event Format

For the first time, an oval race would have its starting grid determined by the finishing order of a road course event. Per a peculiar rule regarding the events in Chicago, a rule was written that "the results of the Saturday race would determine the starting grid of the following race, with the top 10 inverted." With the Sunday race being cancelled before the race could begin, the rule applied then to the replacement event. Champ Car officials clarified that if a replacement event wouldn't have happened, the rule would have then applied to Valkenburg, creating a string of races where qualifying wouldn't have occurred.

### Tire Selection

Per the standard protocol for oval events in 2023, the primary compound tire would be supplied for races on tracks more than 1.25 miles with no exceptions. That would include Chicagoland Speedway. Firestone, on short notice, was able to provide the same tires that went unused at the Indianapolis 500 two weeks before. However, practice was limited to two sets of tires per car to ensure the supply lasted the entire race.
