Noosphere

> I see a sort of infinite space laid out before me, immediately reminded of what I'd heard about GOTTFRIED and *seeing* the Noosphere. There is a background of darkness, interrupted ambiently by points of soft light. Some lights drift in all directions, while others beam toward each other, trading places, forming shapes, connections, ley lines… each one I glance at twinkles at me, and instantly I know something, an immensely small building block of data, a fundamental particle of an applicable concept. There is no scale to this world — like clouds, everything looks much closer than it likely is.

## Information

**Tier:** **High 1-A**

**Name:** Noosphere, Psychosphere, Human Thought-space, The World of Forms, etc.

**Origin:** SCP Foundation

**Classification:** Realm of Human Thoughts

**Location:** Exists "above" or parallel to every timeline in the SCP Universe

**Size:** High Outerversal (Transcends the physical world entirely)

**Environment:** World made entirely out of thoughts and concepts

* **Resources**: Abstract Concepts

**Passive Effects:** Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1. All beings introduced to the Noosphere are usually shown being turned into abstract forms)

**Powers and Abilities:** Abstract Existence (Type 1. Exists as the set of all thoughts human can have), Incorporeality, Acausality (Type 5. Exists as the very dimension of time, transcending the physical world and acting as the very reason for time's existence. Should be beyond any higher dimensions of time, which there can be an arbitrary amount of), Transduality (Type 2. As the set of all platonic forms making up reality, it should include and be beyond every single types of duality that apply to the physical world. It should also be beyond some transdual elements shown in certain canons Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1. The Noosphere acts as the world of thoughts to the physical world, containing abstract concepts that define the physical world in its entirety), Large Size (Type 11), Mind Manipulation, Memory Manipulation, Perception Manipulation, Dream Manipulation (Acts as the set of all human thoughts, containing every minds, memories, dreams and perceptions), Data Manipulation, Information Manipulation (Type 1 and 2. Contains the fundamental information and data behind reality), Beyond-Dimensional Existence (Type 2. Inherently transcends the spatial and temporal dimensions of the physical world, as the abstract realm defining those in the first place), Reality Warping, Time Manipulation (Acts as the dimension of time, allowing time to progress), Causality Manipulation (Allows causality itself to exists, as the Noosphere materializes each "step" of physical reality), Higher-Dimensional Existence (Contains ideatic entities of various ideatic higher dimensions, which are unique and separate from physical dimensions), Law Manipulation, Physics Manipulation (Can manipulate the laws of a given world, such as making anomalous activity impossible), Mathematics Manipulation (Contains at least a few mathematical principles)

**Attack Potency:** **High Outerverse level** (Exists as the World of Forms, containing all platonic forms that define physical reality. This not only includes all physical dimensions of a given iterations of reality, but also includes the infinite of smaller scale narratives of the Kaktusverse. These narratives exist as contradictory versions of the greater pataphysical model and are thus limited to single canons, and are part of the reality defined by information in said canon. Narratives are layers of reality qualitatively superior to higher dimensions, with higher narrative entities not even registering as reality warping on the scale of the lower narrative. Higher dimensions similarly completely transcend the lower dimensions, being able to manipulate the lower realms at will. It also likely contains the platonic forms of aleph numbers, due to them composing parts of physical reality. As such, the Noosphere transcends an infinite amount of narrative layers, each transcending the system of higher dimensions of the lower narrative)

**Speed:** **Nigh-Omnipresent** (Transcends and exists all over the physical world of a given timeline. Exists above all of the temporal and spatial dimensions of reality)

**Durability:** **High Outerverse level**

**Notable Features:**

* **Inhabitants:**
	+ **Disembodied Consciousnesses:** Sentient beings without a physical body can inhabit the Noosphere. These are either artificial intelligences that can only interact with digital interfaces or organic intelligences stuck in the Noosphere. This includes the likes of Alexandra.aic and Ará Orún.
	+ **Memes:** Memetic entities naturally inhabit the Noosphere. This includes the likes of SCP-3002, SCP-6661 and SCP-4486.
	+ **Memeplexes:** More complex memetic structures, complexes of memes collected together. These usually correspond to deific entities worshipped by humans. This includes the likes of SCP-3004, certain incarnations of The Scarlet King and SCP-3125.
	+ **Extranoospheric Entities:** Certain entities outside of the Noosphere can partially intersect with the Noosphere, affecting it in various ways. This includes the likes of SCP-6820-A and SCP-3125.
* **Areas:**
	+ **The Cybersphere:** An area that overlaps with the Noosphere. It is the set of all information stored digitally. In certain cases, it can exists partially out of the Noosphere, should an artificial intelligence's brain power exceed that of humans.

**Note:** This profile covers the version of the Noosphere featured as part of the Placeholder/Ike model of the SCP Foundation reality, which exists in every single timeline in the SCP Foundation universe according to it. While individual incarnations of the Noosphere in certain storylines might be modified to act in different ways according to these set of timelines' needs, this profile focuses on the default version of the Noosphere.
