SCP-003

"SCP-003 consists of two related components of separate origin, referred to as SCP-003-1 and SCP-003-2."

## About

SCP-003, also known as "Biological Circuit," is an enigmatic Euclid-class anomaly. It consists of two components: SCP-003-1 and SCP-003-2. SCP-003-1 appears to be a complex arrangement of chitin, hair, and nails, resembling a computer motherboard, and is considered sentient. SCP-003-2 is an internal non-biological computer that controls SCP-003-1.

SCP-003-1 can undergo rapid growth, which involves two stages. During the first stage, it increases in mass and forms sensory organs while partially converting surrounding material into an anomalous substance. The second stage is activated when SCP-003-1 comes into contact with living organic material, causing it to halt growth and attempt communication with organisms matching its initial "template."

To prevent uncontrolled growth and communication attempts, SCP-003-1 must be maintained at temperatures above 100°C. In the event of containment breach or excessive growth, personnel are required to engage in physical contact with SCP-003-1 to maintain control.

While SCP-003-1 is not hostile, its motives and understanding of the human world remain largely alien. The Foundation has shifted its approach from containment to cooperation, forming a new team, M03-Harmony, to establish communication and mutual understanding with SCP-003-1, recognizing that it may hold valuable knowledge beyond human comprehension.

## Powers and Stats

**Tier:** Unknown

**Name:** SCP-003, "Biological Motherboard", "Biological Circuit,"

**Origin:** SCP Foundation

**Gender**: Genderless. SCP-003 is portrayed as an inanimate object with anomalous properties, and its gender does not appear to be a relevant aspect of its description or story

**Age**: Unknown. The age of SCP-003 is not specified in the original article

**Object Class:** Euclid

**Power and Abilities**

Conscious Entity (SCP-003-1 is considered conscious, although its nature is radically different from Earthly biology, and its understanding of the world is alien.) Exponential Growth Capability (SCP-003-1 has the ability to grow exponentially, transforming matter in its vicinity.) Matter Manipulation (SCP-003-1 can convert inorganic and organic matter into anomalous structures resembling parts of its body.) Potential for Communication (SCP-003-1 has shown attempts at communication with humans, despite its limited understanding of the human experience.) Radiation Manipulation (SCP-003-2 is capable of emitting controlled radiations, including heat, light, and anomalous radiation types.)

**Attack Pottency:** Unknown (SCP-003-1 has not demonstrated hostility, but its ability for exponential growth and matter conversion makes it unpredictable.)

**Speed:** Immobile

**Lifting Strength:** Unknown

**Striking Strength:** Unknown

**Durability:** Unknown

**Range:**

* Extended Melee Range: This can apply to the tentacles and appendages of SCP-003-1, as they can extend beyond normal human reach.
* Tens of Meters: The range of controlled radiation emissions from SCP-003-2, such as light and heat, could extend over several tens of meters, depending on the circumstances.

**Standard Equipment:** SCP-003-2 (a non-biological computer entity that maintains SCP-003-1 and has the ability to emit controlled radiations.)

**Intelligence:** Mindless | Unknown

**Weakness:** Temperature (SCP-003-1 requires specific temperatures to maintain its normal state. Inadequate temperature maintenance can lead to growth and potentially attempts at communication with humans.)
