Item#: SCP-5513

Object Class: Safe Euclid

Special Containment Procedure: SCP-5513 is to be kept in a standard humanoid containment cell with a faraday cage built surrounding it. Item is allowed a computer connected to a dedicated server bank located 18 meters from the peak of Mt. Denali. Server is to have a month old backup of the internet that is to be altered to the site directors specifications. Data generated by SCP-5513 is to be analyzed by an AI to check for potential memetic or cognitohazardous properties, each month the modified internet backup is to be analyzed site researchers that have been trained to handle class-7 memetic hazards, all findings are to be sent directly to O5- ~8 .

Guards and researchers monitoring SCP-5513 are to be changed out in a staggered manner every 3 months. MTA-5513 "Da Crew" has been formed to pose as friends to SCP-5513 and visit on a bi-weekly basis to encourage item to clean his cell, staff cleaning has been shown to be detrimental to the mental state of SCP-5513. Activities carried out during visits are not to be monitored, MTA-5513 do not have to report these visits, leave is suggested after with psychiatric counselling to precede returning to site.

Surveillance data is to be wiped every 5 weeks, all data transferred offsite is to be in the form of an encrypted hard drive, these hard drives must be transferred to Denali server bank to be stored. SCP-5513 is to be allowed requests within reason, researchers are encouraged to find out if item has any unvoiced requests on every visit, these requests are to be sent to site director.

Description: SCP-5513 is a male humanoid, approximately 5'11" dark hair appearing in his mid twenties, likely caucasian though interviews have brought his age into question. Pictures can be taken of the object but is not advised, as it picture (stored as data or film) will overtime degrade itself and images in its vicinity. This effect can spread if stored on a digital device leading to a cascading data corruption (see Incident#5513-d4).

Item poses mild cognitohazard to individuals that come in contact with the object on a regular basis, this effect is offset by a secondary effect which begins approximately an hour after being in line of sight of the object. Individuals after an hour of exposure tend to dislike the object, each half hour of further exposure increases the qualities of the object that are found to be grating. This effect has made the item largely self-containing.

SCP-5513 was recovered from The Planet of the Hand in 1973 . Item came to the Foundation's attention when they came here to die (see Incident#5513-a), analysis of recent internet searches in the area were able to trace activity to a reply to a post on reddit, all individuals of the REDACTED community in the age range of 15-27 with an internet connection to join!them! .

Item was recovered without incident. Agents reported that the object assumed they were here on a drug bust, approximately 13 grams of marijuana was found in his room with a number of jerry-rigged paraphernalia. Item was unemployed at the time, though on entry interview was found to have a dozen jobs in the past 2 decades where it is theorized that he was let go or quit due to his secondary effect after an average period of 6 months.

After April 17th, 2016 a faraday cage is to be installed around SCP-5513's containment cell and to be activated when the item goes to sleep. SCP-5513 class changed to Euclid after Incident#5513-b106, where item became incorporeal and breached containment. SCP-5513 encountered at least 8 SCPs with the first 80 minutes of the breach including SCP- nope . Site containment was breached, power loss to Euclid and Safe wings, and SCP-5513 was lost for 2 hours.
