Hello Internet - and welcome back to Life’s Biggest Questions, the channel where we kick
our boots off, slump into an armchair - and contemplate what on Earth just happened.
Well, my name’s Jack Finch - and today, we’ve got a fresh one - as we ask the question,
What Are The Most Dangerous SCP Foundation Creatures?
Before we begin, I’d just like to give a huge thank you for the love that our first
SCP video gathered - we had a blast making it.
Let us know how we’re doing in the comment box down below - because, you know - we’re
all ears.
Also, I know a lot of you were concerned about our involvement with the SCP Foundation, but
- please, rest assured that we have absolutely no affiliation with such an organisation.
If you’ve watched our first video - you’ll know, as we make it very clear that [REDACTED]
[REDACTED] [REDACTED].
On with the show.
Danger is a pretty tentative word when dealing with the list of contaminants under the watchful
eye of the SCP-Foundation.
The majority of them, in some form or another, are absolutely terrifying and can cause unimaginable
horror in the blink of an eye.
Take our first specimen, for example - SCP-049.
Described as a humanoid entity - roughly 1.9 meters in height - SCP-049 bears the resemblance
of a medieval plague doctor, equipped wearing thick robes and a pale-white ceramic mask.
Bizarrely enough, it’s medieval medical uniform has actually gradually grown out of
its body.
So much so, that the clothing is nearly indistinguishable from whatever weird form lies beneath.
The foundation have even conducted medical X-Ray’s on the entity - and despite this,
it still has a humanoid skeletal structure beneath its outer layer, indicating that whatever
it was or is, still bears an uncanny resemblance to *us.*
That’s not the worst part though.
By far.
Because SCP-049 is an incredibly vocal entity - and it regularly converses when it has the
chance.
It’s main topic of choice?
The Pestilence.
Although the exact nature of what The Pestilence actually is - is unknown - it seems to be
the driving force behind this entity’s existence.
Foundation researchers quickly learned that SCP-049 will attempt to kill any individuals
that it sees as being affected with the Pestilence.
The entity is capable of causing all biological functions of an organism to cease through
direct skin contact.
How that happens?
Yeah - the Foundations’ scientists haven’t got a clue.
And that terrifies them - because knowledge is power - and these guys are powerless.
After SCP-049 has killed - which, by the way, it expresses remorse for - it will usually
try and perform a sort of crude surgery on the corpse - which, when successful - results
in the creation of an SCP-049-2.
Yep - it’s pretty much a weird, surgical necromancer - which reanimates the corpses
of the people it’s killed in the vague attempt at curing a plague.
My guess on this one?
SCP-049 see’s humanity as a plague - and itself as the cure.
Well - here’s another answer to that plague - the absolutely horrific containment of SCP-096.
This entity is so gnarly, that the organisation has to keep it in an airtight steel cube - at
all times - with weekly checks for any cracks or holes as part of its security procedure.
There is also, absolutely no video surveillance allowed at any time, why?
Well - let’s find out.
Because SCP-096 is a hairless, pigmentless humanoid creature - that stands approximately
2.38 meters in height, and attributes very little muscle mass - which researchers believe
has lead to malnutrition.
The entity’s arms are grossly out of proportion with the rest of its body - reaching a length
of 1.5 meters each.
If that’s not nightmare inducing enough - it can also open its jaw to four times the
norm of an average human being.
Again - the horrifying thing with this entity is that the SCP Foundation knows incredibly
little about what makes it tick.
It demonstrates very light brain function - and isn’t even considered to be sapient.
But you’re probably wondering about the whole zero surveillance thing - and, well
- SCP-096 is normally incredibly docile - until someone views its face.
Be it directly, via recording - or even a photograph - upon being viewed - SCP-096 will
begin screaming, crying and babbling incoherently, and after a minute or two, it will begin running
to whoever viewed its face.
And by running - I mean that no known material can stop SCP-096.
It will rip through any kind of metal or rock to make it’s way to the target - and then
proceed to kill - with a 100% success rate.
What the Foundation fears the most is a chain reaction from SCP-096, but - luckily for us
- the latest reports suggest that SCP-096 was killed willingly by a Dr. Dan - when his
termination was issued by the O5 - the ultimate command of the SCP Foundation, after a string
of containment breach incidents.
But - well, the entity’s records end there - with no concrete confirmation of its demise.
Did Dr. Dan manage to terminate SCP-096?
Well, one report suggests that [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED].
Okay - now let’s take a look at possibly the most dangerous entity under containment,
and also the universe - SCP-2317.
I’d also like to give a quick shoutout to SCP Illustrated for this suggestion, cheers
bud!
In essence, SCP-2317 is an old wooden door and frame, appearing to be from 19th-century
Massachusetts, originally made for use in a basement.
Any person that steps through the door will be transported to an alternate reality.
Doesn’t sound too scary, right?
Wrong.
Because behind that door is a salt flat - with a circle of seven marble pillars, which are
engraved with a series of patterns that do not correspond to any known civilization,
where a ritual must be completed every day - otherwise a primeval entity, known as The
Scarlet King, Devourer of Worlds - well, he’ll be summoned to devour our world.
The foundation are so insanely petrified of SCP-2317, that it’s pretty much expected
to result in an XK-Class End of the World Scenario.
Why?
Because when SCP-2317 was first discovered in 1922, four of seven chains that sealed
the doorway were broken - with three remaining intact.
But, since then - the fifth and sixth chains have been broken, which resulted in two catastrophic
historical events, Data Redacted of course.
So, there’s only one chain that remains, and the Foundation haven’t got a clue how
to repair or reattach the six other chains, all while a giant, primeval entity is just
waiting for someone to mess up during a ritual so he can reign chaos down on us all - so
yeah - we’re pretty much boned.
Well - what do you think guys?
Unfortunately that’s all of the SCP’s we can cover in today's video, let us know
which entities you’d like to see in the comment box down below.
Give us a thumbs up if you’ve liked this video, and make sure you share it with your
family and friends, because awareness of the SCP Foundation could never be a bad thing.
Just kidding - I’m being forced to make this video under the watchful eye of the O5,
in an attempt to muddle your reality and make the Foundation’s existence palatable for
a mass audience.
Am I kidding?
Who knows?
You’ve been watching Life’s Biggest Questions, I’ve been your host Jack Finch - and until
next time, take it easy.
