> Secure. Contain. Protect.

> **The SCP Foundation's unofficial motto.**

> Mankind must not go back to hiding in fear. No one else will protect us, and we must stand up for ourselves. While the rest of mankind dwells in the light, we must stand in the darkness to fight it, contain it, and shield it from the eyes of the public, so that others may live in a sane and normal world.
>
> **The Administrator**

> Yesterday, I watched the world nearly die in a thousand terrible ways. Sometimes we would have had time to scream. Today, I'm alive to write about it. Do you want happy endings? Fuck you. You're alive to read it. God help us all. Secure. Contain. Protect.

The **Secure Containment Procedures Foundation**, commonly abbreviated **SCP Foundation**, is the titular organization dedicated to the apprehension and containment of anomalies, ranging from creatures to objects, locations, events and phenomena, known as "SCPs".

The organization is overall dedicated to understanding anomalous occurrences and permanently incarcerating them so that they are kept away from humanity, whether it is for the SCPs' safety from society or vice versa.

The Foundation captures and contains all abnormal occurrences, whether they are threatening or not. Every SCP is experimented upon, and tests are conducted on them on a daily basis.

## Ranks and Structure

All Foundation personnel are sworn to secrecy and are expected to be loyal and professional in their duties. For example, matters like personal morals or superstition should never cloud their judgement during work.

### 05-Council

The SCP-Foundation is led by the Overseer Council, also known as the O5-Council. The O-5 Council consists of usually 13 people who are often only defined as O5-1 through O5-13. The O5-council have unlimited access to all files and reports without any data expunged or redacted. The Council usually decides major decision with anomalies that have existential threats to humanity or the universe at large but can influence anything. It is often speculated that O5's may be anomalous themselves.

### Ethics Commitee

The Ethics Committee also wields a lot of power inside the Foundation. Most personnel consider the Ethics Committee as a joke or myth, but in reality, the leaders of this Committee are described to have the same power as the O5's. They hide in plain sight and apparently have some authority over the O5-Council. The Committee decides what is ethically acceptable for the Foundation to do in their mission statement.

### Site-Directors

Site-Directors are high-ranking researchers that lead the different containment-sites around the world. They often have Assistant Directors of different expertise that assist them inside the facilities. Site-Directors are also usually the highest-ranking officials who still have a full name and not a numeric designation like with the O5-Council.

### Mobile Task Forces

Mobile Task Forces, or MTFs, are the Foundation's most effective and skilled personnel. They can be anything from scientists and researchers to Elite Special Forces Soldiers (The most common variant used in stories or media about the SCP Universe). Mobile Task Forces are, as the name suggests, mobile and can operate on either Containment-Sites or in the Field. They usually deal with the most dangerous anomalies, where the more common field and recovery agents might lack knowledge or training. MTF's often also have specialties: Example: MTF Mu-4 ("Debuggers") is specified in tracking anomalous electronic devices, technology, and transmission, and either try to contain or block them. The most famous/infamous Mobile Task Force is MTF Alpha-1 ("Red Right Hand"), who consist of the Foundations best and loyal operatives and employees. Despite this MTF Alpha-1 is often connected to the creation of the Chaos Insurgency, a rival organization that seeks to destroy the Foundation. However, the most elite of all MTF personnel would be Mobile Task Force Tau-5 also known as the Samsara, cybernetically-enhanced super soldiers made from the flesh of the Lord of Endowments.

### Containment Specialists

The Containment Specialists are employees who design and uphold the Special Containment Procedures of anomalies. Containment Specialists can be anything from technicians to doctors to security personnel, and these duties often overlap with other ranks.

### Security Personnel

The facilities of the Foundation employs Security Personnel that serve as the primary defense force in doors. Their duties rank from guarding anomalies to serving as bodyguards for higher ranking officials. Their duty often overlaps with Containment Specialists and MTFs.

### Field Agents

Field Agents is responsible for detecting anomalies in outside world. They can be placed in any organization, whether it is a government, a company or in a military or law enforcement organization. They serve as eyes and ears and contact the Foundation when something anomalous is detected.

### Recovery Teams

Recovery Teams are usually called in by Field Agents when an anomaly is found. They are responsible for capturing the anomaly and transporting it back to a Foundation-owned facility. As mentioned before, with more dangerous anomalies MTFs are sent in.

### Class-D Personnel

Class-D Personnel are the lowest ranking staff of the Foundation. Usually recruited from convicted criminals, especially the death row criminals. They often serve as human test-subjects with anomalies, be it on facilities or in the field. Other groups and civilian organizations see this usually as a human-rights violation, though the Foundation sees this as necessary. In older canon, Class-D Personnel were automatically terminated after 30 days of employment; in newer canon they are often given Class B amnesiac drugs instead at the discretion of security and medical staff. In some cases when the Foundation is running out of D-Class and none of death row prisoners are available, the Foundation may enable Protocol 12, which recruits Class-D personnel from other prison populations, refugee populations, or in extreme cases civilian sources.

### Other Ranks

The Foundation also employs more mundane staff such as communication specialists, kitchen staff, accounting, archives, janitorial staff and electricians, who do not work directly with anomalies, but are vital in day-to-day operations.

## About SCPs

While literally thousands of SCPs have been contained by the Foundation, there are several notable ones that are popularly associated with the Foundation. It should be noted that all of these SCPs are contained by the Foundation and are not affiliated with the Foundation's personnel.

### Object Classes

In the SCP Foundation, the SCPs are categorized by differed classes, which varies based on the SCPs ease of containment. Most notable are the Safe, Euclid and Keter classes, but there are more in the Foundation:

* **Safe** - SCPs which are easily contained by the Foundation. These SCPs ultimately cannot escape containment of their own accord, and are not considered a threat by the Foundation unless specifically used in a threatening manner.
* **Euclid** - SCPs that require resources to remain contained. Most Euclid SCPs are difficult to understand, and oftentimes unpredictable. Their danger is greater than Safe class SCPs.
* **Keter** - SCPs that are extremely difficult to contain in the facility. Most of the time, Keter SCPs are considered to be extremely dangerous and hostile, and pose a threat to the world or universe at large. The procedures of these SCPs are very complex.
* **Thaumiel** - SCPs used by the Foundation to assist in efforts of containing and/or countering other SCPs. These SCPs are some of the most well kept secrets of the Foundation.
* **Archon** - SCPs that the Foundation believes should not be contained due to the potential damage that could be caused by containing them.
* **Apollyon** - SCPs which are near impossible to contain by the Foundation. These SCPs are considered to be one of the most threatening SCP classifications of all, and are threats on global or cosmic scales.
* **Neutralized** - SCPs that, as the name suggests, SCPs which are deceased, destroyed, or otherwise no longer functional.
* **Explained** - SCPs whose anomalous properties have been explained or debunked, and most often do not pose a threat.
* **Decommissioned** - Terminated SCPs rejected by the Foundation.

### Notable Examples

#### Safe

* **SCP-993**: A twisted TV show starring Bobble the Clown, which causes psychotic and schizophrenic symptoms. Anyone over the age of ten will pass out upon viewing it.
* **SCP-999**: An adorable, orange-colored slime creature, which cures anyone-anything in pain.

#### Euclid

* **SCP-049**: A plague doctor who uses a mysterious treatment on human subjects that render them as brain-dead and hostile zombies.
* **SCP-087**: An endless staircase going down that contains a humanoid figure, **SCP-087-1**. The constant sound of crying can be heard deep within SCP-087.
* **SCP-096**: A tall, pale, humanoid that will kill anyone or anything that sees its face. It is indestructible and unstoppable when enraged.
* **SCP-173**: One of the first SCPs, SCP-173 is a statue-like creature that cannot move when in direct eyesight but can move unfathomably fast when looked away from. It will kill anything it can by breaking the neck.

#### Keter

* **SCP-035**: A sentient mask with the ability to possess anyone that wears it and rots them into nothingness.
* **SCP-076-2**: A humanoid of Sumerian descent that can summon a variety of weapons and if killed, revives in SCP-076-1.
* **SCP-106**: An elderly humanoid with the ability to pass through any material and create pocket dimensions at any time.
* **SCP-682**: An indestructible reptilian monster with a hatred for humanity and a desire for all of it to be wiped out.

### SCP-001

**SCP-001** is a title given to a mysterious anonymous SCP in the SCP Foundation. What is interesting about this SCP is that there isn't an official SCP titled SCP-001. Only proposals exist for SCP-001, which have been listed on the foundation's site. According to the site, one, many or all of the SCPs proposed may or may not be the real identity of SCP-001. There have been over 30 proposals dedicated to the SCP-001 title, and the foundation also implements that SCP-001 is considered to be the biggest secret of the foundation, which has been blocked for everyone to get access to top secret information about SCP-001.

## Known Membership

The SCP Foundation employs thousands of people such as researchers, agents, and guards. The work these individuals perform is often morally controversial in nature (such as D-Class Personnel and Procedure 110-Montauk); however, the work is always meant to protect mankind and preserve normality.

## Persons of Interest

Besides SCPs, the Foundation also holds record of Persons of Interest (PoI), who are either anomalous or connected to it.

* PoI-018747: Konrad Weiss, Director of Ahnenerbe Obskurakorps.
* PoI-1115: Vincent Anderson, Founder of Anderson Robotics.
* PoI-5333-2: Horus, the Egyptian god of sky and kingship.
* PoI-93: Grand Karcist Ion, principal member of Sarkicism.
* PoI-7701: Dr. Madison Craggs, an agent of the Chaos Insurgency.

## Myths and Legends

Just like Creepypasta, SCP started spreading all over the internet, until the SCP website was launched in 2008, which has been collecting and documenting SCPs. One of the first SCPs that popularized the SCP Foundation was SCP-173, also known as The Sculpture. Today, there have been over 5000 entities and articles on the website and in the foundation. New ones are still being discovered and contained to this day.

## Trivia

* The SCP Foundation currently has six known "series" of SCPs: Series I contains SCP-001 through SCP-999, Series II contains SCP-1000 through SCP-1999, Series III contains SCP-2000 through SCP-2999, Series IV contains SCP-3000 through SCP-3999, Series V contains SCP-4000 through SCP-4999, and Series VI contains SCP-5000 through SCP-5999
* The SCP Foundation's main enemies outside of the SCPs include the Chaos Insurgency, Serpent's Hand, the Church of the Broken God and the Church of Sarkicism.
* Some believe that SCP-001 is the Foundation itself.
