Dr. Bright

**Dr. Jack Bright**, is a highly eccentric researcher working under the SCP Foundation's Administrative Department.

**Range:** Standard Melee Range with 963, Tens of Meters with The Atomic Revolver and firearms, up to Boundless with preparation time

**Standard Equipment:**

* **SCP-963:** A pendant worn by Jack Bright at all times. If any living being with a sophisticated enough mind touches the object, it causes their mind to be completely overridden by that of Jack Bright, although if the pendant is removed quickly enough, the afflicted still retains their memories. If worn for long enough, the victim becomes a permanent copy of Jack Bright, even allowing for multiple instances of his mind should it be transferred to another user.

**Optional Equipment:**

* **SCP-963-2:** A series of Foundation logo pins created through analyzing 963's anomalous properties. While most of its abilities are unknown, in the events of 'Unfinished Business' it is revealed that it effectively functions as another instance of 963, albeit it lacks its trademark durability. Through manipulation of the Foundation over hundreds of years, Bright was able to utilize these copies to absorb the minds of nearly the entire Foundation, controlling a large portion of the personnel as a sort of hive mind.
* **The Atomic Revolver:** A weapon stolen from Alto Clef. It functions entirely as a non-anomalous revolver of unremarkable make, yet when fired it releases a blast of radiation with no known limit regarding ammunition. If this blast of energy/radiation hits an organism, all the affected cells become cancerous, and begin to multiply and form deadly tumors within seconds. This spreads throughout the body, and typically kills targets within minutes, with no possible cure.
* **Standard Foundation Field Equipment**
* **SCP-2719:** A variable abstract-metaphysical construct pointer. It can be used to make an object or concept become "Inside", and then to send other objects or concepts "Inside" the previously set object. It can be used to transport objects, but also to manipulate entire concepts.
* **S.W.A.N.N. Engine,** A machine that kills the user and sends their soul to a higher Narrative, allowing them to observe and control Swann Entities. The process also allows the user to keep whatever powers they had in their Narrative when sent to the higher one.
* **Chainsaws:** A machine made for cutting down trees. Dr. Bright will use it for any advantages. He even made a cannon that shoots chainsaw, which can be extremely devastating.

**Intelligence:** **Extraordinary Genius** (A high ranking researcher of the SCP Foundation, outsmarted both Clef and Kondraki on several occasions), **Supergenius** as of the events of Unfinished Business (Absorbed the minds of a large majority of the Foundation, possibly many, many more) **Omniscient** (with the S.W.A.N.N Engine becoming a swann entity possesses knowledge of everything that happens in every galaxy and also in all universes and even in multiverses and on a boundless level).

**Weaknesses:** Due to his immortality, he carries an underlying to desire to finally die and be put to rest.
