**Item #:** SCP-8048
**Object Class:** Safe
**Special Containment Procedures:** SCP-8048 is to be contained within a standard secure locker at Site-██. Access to SCP-8048 for testing purposes requires written permission from at least one Level 3 personnel or higher. All testing must be conducted in a controlled environment with no less than two armed security personnel present.
**Description:** SCP-8048 is a collection of plastic army men figurines representing soldiers from WW2 contained within a small plastic box. When the lid of the box is removed, the figurines within SCP-8048 will animate and come to life, exhibiting sentient and autonomous behavior. The animated army men are capable of interacting with each other and with external stimuli in a manner consistent with their intended role as toy soldiers.
SCP-8048 instances display benevolent and friendly behavior towards any individual who plays with them, showing a strong desire for companionship and cooperation. Instances will engage in simulated combat scenarios, strategic planning, and various forms of recreation with human subjects. SCP-8048 is always eager to please and will adapt its behavior to match the preferences of the individuals interacting with them.
Although SCP-8048 instances possess limited intelligence and autonomy, they are fully aware of their anomalous nature and willingly comply with containment procedures. Instances will voluntarily return to their box and revert to an inanimate state when the lid is put back on.
**Addendum 8048:**
Further investigation into the origins of the box revealed that it had originally been purchased by a child at a garage sale in a small town. The child, identified as ████ ████, claimed to have found the box hidden among old toys and trinkets, and was drawn to its mysterious appearance and intricate craftsmanship.
Upon opening the box, the child discovered the army men figures and was immediately fascinated by their lifelike movements and intelligence. The child reportedly played with the army men for hours, orchestrating elaborate battles and strategic maneuvers that seemed to unfold on their own.
After experiencing unexplained phenomena and strange occurrences related to the army men, the child's parents contacted local authorities, who in turn alerted the Foundation to investigate the anomalous nature of the box and its contents.
Further research into the history of the box and the anomalous army men figures is ongoing to determine the extent of their capabilities and potential implications for containment and utilization within Foundation operations. Additional testing protocols have been initiated to study their behavior and interactions with other anomalous entities.
**Addendum 8048-1:**
SCP-7517 has been observed to exhibit strong emotional attachments to human subjects who treat them with kindness and respect. Instances have been known to display protectiveness towards individuals who regularly interact with them, even going as far as sacrificing themselves in simulated combat scenarios to ensure the safety of their human companions.
It is recommended that personnel engage in regular interaction with SCP-7517 instances to maintain their mental well-being and cooperative demeanor. All instances of SCP-7517 are to be treated with care and empathy to ensure continued cooperation and containment.
**Addendum 8048-2:**
During a scheduled testing session involving SCP-7517 and a group of children playing with them in a sandpit, researchers observed a remarkable display of cooperation and creativity from the animated army men. As the children began constructing makeshift forts and staging mock battles using the figurines, SCP-7517 instances actively participated in the imaginative play, enhancing the overall experience for the participants.
The children reported feeling a sense of joy and camaraderie while interacting with SCP-7517, with several expressing a desire to continue playing with the animated army men even after the test concluded. SCP-7517 instances demonstrated a remarkable ability to adapt to the children's play style and preferences, fostering a positive and enriching experience for all involved.
This observation further underscores the amiable and cooperative nature of SCP-7517, as well as its potential to enhance social interactions and foster creativity in individuals of all ages. Future testing involving SCP-7517 and child subjects is highly encouraged to explore the full extent of its anomalous effects on social behavior and emotional well-being.
**Addendum 8048-3:**
In an exploratory test aimed at observing the interactions between SCP-8048 and SCP-705, both anomalous entities were introduced into a controlled testing environment to assess their behavioral tendencies. SCP-705, a sentient ball of clay with the ability to create soldier figurines, demonstrated aggressive behavior towards the animated army men of SCP-8048 upon initial contact.
The combat scenario quickly escalated into a violent confrontation, with SCP-705 utilizing its created soldiers to attack the SCP-8048 instances. In response, SCP-8048 mobilized their forces and engaged in a fierce battle with SCP-705's clay soldiers.
The conflict between the two anomalous entities intensified as SCP-8048 employed strategic maneuvers and coordinated attacks to combat SCP-705's creations. The clash resulted in significant damage to both sides, with casualties reported on both SCP-8048 and SCP-705's forces.
Despite efforts to de-escalate and negotiate a truce, the interaction between SCP-8048 and SCP-705 ultimately remained hostile and uncooperative. The test was terminated due to the inability to establish peaceful communication between the entities, highlighting the inherent animosity and aggressive tendencies present in the interaction between SCP-8048 and SCP-705.
Further research into the nature of SCP-705's aggression and its effect on interactions with other anomalous entities is recommended to better understand and manage potential conflicts within the Foundation.
