mystical madness! Outstanding, let’s begin.
NUMBER FIVE: SCP-2241 A superhero in the making! Or maybe a supervillain?
That’s always the risk you run when gaslighting a child with reality-bending capabilities.
2241 is a seven-year-old boy, originally with minor telekinetic ability, and latent reality-bending
abilities. The Foundation took him in and has maintained
custody for his protection. Well, that’s the cover story, really they
want to test and develop his abilities, and see if they can create more “superheroes”
like him. At first he could slightly move small objects,
and might accidentally change something into another thing every once in a while.
But, through hard work, determination, and a whole lot of insidious lying on the Foundation’s
part, he’s really grown. By convincing him they’re a sort of Avengers-type
organization, the Foundation has got the young lad destroying drones, dispatching D-class
disguised as bad guys, and tossing mortars at the speed of sound.
Not exactly the kinds of stuff you want an emotionally unstable seven year old doing.
He’s been put through many tests, most of which are scenarios meant to upset him and
place him in danger. Multiple times the Ethics Committee put a
stop to his testing, you know, because he’s a young, dangerous child.
But O5 has rescinded this every time, claiming the research is too important to let slide.
Currently, he has a “monitoring device” implanted in him, which to me reads like “killswitch
if things get spooky.” They’ve claimed that his loyalty is reason
enough to consider the risk of containment breach low, but that smacks of stupidity to
me. This whole thing seems like Brightburn waiting
to happen. If this kid throws a temper tantrum and flies
off to the nearest town, I doubt there’ll be much of a town left afterwards.
NUMBER FOUR: SCP-2200 Cursed sword alert! Badass cursed sword alert!
2200 is a collective designation for a few interrelated things.
First, there’s a sword. An ancient sword. An ancient sword that defies aging by killing
people and sending them to it’s silver paradise. It finds a host, attaches it to them, and
refuses to be let go. If it is indeed removed from the host’s grasp, the host will die.
When the host dies, the sword will anomalously relocate to the hand of another individual,
and bond with them. There doesn’t seem to be a limit to the
distance it will travel, and the sword seems to selectively bond with folks.
If you’re between 15 and 45, physically active, have a strong fear of death, and tend
to be psychologically and emotionally unstable, you’re a top-notch candidate.
Folks who come across the sword generally act pretty irresponsibly based on these traits.
One subject went around killing homeless people with it, and considered it a benevolent act.
He explained that they were probably close to death anyways, and this was a way to ensure
they avoided Hell. Another subject killer her own family in order
to make sure they lived forever. If you’re killed by the sword, a likeness
of you will appear within a designated area of about 50km2.
This likeness will be made of a silver-based alloy, fully inorganic, but animate and capable
of vocalization. It will even share memories and personality
traits with the victim it resembles. No more aging, no more injuries, no more need
to eat, drink, or sleep. Honestly, it kind of sounds like limbo. Just,
chill here forever and ever and ever. Instances can choose to exit the area, and
cease to be animate, but nobody’s sure what happens after that.
Some of these silvery statuesque people see it as an opportunity to make your peace before
ascending. Others see it as a sort of purgatory. But really, it’s a holding cell for the
sword’s elixir of life. NUMBER THREE: SCP-662
Honestly, this one is only as dangerous as the person holding it.
It’s a silver bell, with no ringer. If shaken, as if to ring it, a faint chime
will be heard, and a well-dressed British butler named Mr. Deeds will show up.
He’ll address the ringer by name and title, and ask what they desire.
Most reasonable requests given to Mr. Deeds will be satisfied.
However, there are limits to what he can do. He can’t produce super-complex items like
luxury cars, huge homes, or aircraft. If allowed to leave line of sight, he can
produce smaller, less complicated items, including sandwiches, iced tea, caviar, and even a brick
of gold. The jolly good chap will also perform menial
tasks with a high degree of efficiency, like washing cars, making food, or cleaning.
If he considers anything impossible, he will politely let the ringer know, and even suggest
alternatives. What a cordial man! Durable, too.
If you injure or kill Mr. Deeds, which is about as difficult as killing any short, posh
butler, he’ll reappear, uninjured and ready to go upon the next ringing.
Now this all seems well and good, right? Well, it doesn’t seem like Mr. Deeds has any qualms
with murder. If somebody were to ring the bell and request
swift death upon their enemies, the butler would in all likelihood oblige.
Some kills, like deeply entrenched military leaders, are too difficult, but most public
figures and citizens are fair game. Plus, I bet he’d be able to go and cause
mayhem behind the scenes. Mr. Deeds, acquire the nuclear codes.
Mr. Deeds, deliver a letter declaring war. Mr. Deeds, leak those photos. You know the
ones. Good help is hard to find, and super dangerous.
NUMBER TWO: SCP-1678 Victorian-era London is freaky, right?
Jack the Ripper, werewolves, unexplainable diseases tearing through town...
Maybe I’m just thinking of Bloodborne. Regardless, a dimly-lit, anomaly-filled London
doesn’t seem like a place you’d want to be, right?
If that’s the case, you’re gonna want to avoid UnLondon.
Exactly one kilometer below the real London is a mirror-image city, resembling the population
center during the Victorian era. Gas lighting, cobblestones, old architecture,
etc. Researchers believe that it was constructed
instantaneously by unknown means, with the Houses of Parliament as the epicenter.
The further you get from these, the stranger the city becomes.
Houses begin being made of copper pipes, doors and windows disappear, streetlights are nothing
more than poles with floating orbs on the top.
A recorded message plays when one enters the city, basically confirming that it is meant
to be a refuge for survivors of an XK-class end-of-world-event.
The buildings seem to be outfitted for dense inhabitation, and the food supply is… appropriate
for a fallout shelter. The city itself is spooky, but not exactly
dangerous. The strange entities roaming the streets are
another story. So far, two types of humanoid anomalies have
been discovered, with bird-like surveillance drones flitting about for good measure.
The first is known as a wretch. Imagine a witch from Left 4 Dead without the insta-kill
abilities. They lay about in rags, weeping and begging
for food. If you provide them with some of the local nutrient paste, they’ll literally
disintegrate into ash. The other humanoid roaming the street is known
as a Bobby. Victorian-era policemen assembled from dismembered
human parts and industrial hinges. They’re hostile to anyone they come across,
attacking on sight with improvised weapons. Highly resistant to damage, these coppers
can only be dispatched using high-caliber rounds and explosive weapons.
I don’t know exactly what's going on down there, but I would like it to stay underground.
We’ve got enough issues up here. NUMBER ONE: SCP-3179
A sentient liquid metal with shapeshifting and drone-spawning capabilities, hell-bent
on escape come hell or high water? Yeah, that’s something we don’t want out
in the streets. Currently, 3179 is being held in a containment
unit designed by the Cogwork Orthodoxy over 100 years ago, but it doesn’t look like
it will hold up much longer. Once it breaks, who knows how we’ll contain
this thing. 3179 spends most of its time attempting to
break containment. It will expand and change shape, and even
create autonomous, anomalous entities to assist in this quest.
While the main body of metal usually just looks like metal, the pieces it breaks off
can take on all sorts of forms. In fact, through what appears to be trial
and error, 3179 has successfully created automatons that perfectly imitate Mobile Task Force members,
and used them to infiltrate the Foundation. Many times, MTF personnel have been found
tampering with the containment unit for no apparent reason, only to be discovered as
pieces of the metallic blob. During its many escape endeavors, it has killed,
maimed, and otherwise generally trampled all over the people nearby.
Attempting to grow legs on its underside, forming propellers on its top side, imitating
voices of Foundation personnel to lure folks away, it’s done it all.
Followers of Mekhane the Broken God considered this thing to be the offspring of their deity,
and attempted to prove this. This seems to have inspired 3179 to believe
it is a God, or at least taught it that people will worship it if it acts as one.
So now, 3179 creates tablets equating itself to Mekhane and demanding to be worshipped.
Somehow I don’t believe this is the benevolent being the Church of the Broken God prays to.
OUTRO And there you have it! Five fresh, sparkling
SCPs for you to have nightmares about. Which one would you never want to come across?
Are there any favourites that I have yet to talk about?
Make sure you let me know down in the comments! Speaking of comments, let’s take a look
at some of your more melodic ones from the TOP 5 SCARY SCPS THAT CAN TRIGGER THE APOCALYPSE:
Mister Taz says “Remember that anti-narrative SCP? Pepperidge Farms remembers.”
What on earth are you talking about? What anti-narrative SCP? There’s nothing about
that anywhere in the archives. David R says “Legend has it that if you
say God’s true name correctly, the universe will end instantaneously and collapse on itself.”
We’ve got people researching this, right? I want to see the collapse ASAP!
My Serpentine says “That Strangelove joke was painful.”
Life is painful. Go tell your friends you love them.
James Vance says “Ah, just smell that old apocalyptic air! Gotta love it!”
Mmmm, what is that? Napalm? Dust? Burning ozone? Delicious.
Zaine Sheesley says “ok love it” Great to hear from you, Zaine. If only I knew
that it was. That’s all the time we have for today! Before
I go drink a few gallons of unpasteurized milk, make sure to give this video a big thumbs
up, and subscribe for more SCP sweetness. Thanks for watching, and I’ll see you next
time.
