Noting that FallenAsura (account age and site membership 1489 days) recently posted the following concept thread to the critique forum:
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-16995174/seeking-greenlight:scp-the-tenth-sister-updated
**Seeking Greenlights:** Yes, Open to Feedback and Critique
**Page Type:** SCP Article
**Genre:** Supernatural Thriller
**Page Layout:** The article follows the standard SCP format, including containment procedures, description, and addendums. A central table details nine sub-SCP creations (SCP-XXXX-A instances), with logs and interviews adding narrative depth.
**Elevator Pitch:**
SCP-XXXX, "The Tenth Sister," is an uncontained entity that manifests to exceptionally creative individuals in moments of profound distress. It offers them the chance to create a "Magnum Opus" by serving as their muse. SCP-XXXX recites a unique poem during these interactions, reflecting the nature of the creation and hinting at broader, mysterious goals. The resulting works (SCP-XXXX-A instances) are anomalous, with progressively complex and impactful cognitohazardous effects tied to SCP-XXXX’s growing influence.
As the creation of a tenth work looms, SCP-XXXX’s ultimate purpose remains ominously unclear, leaving the narrative on a cliffhanger.
**Central Narrative:**
The SCP explores nine creations inspired by SCP-XXXX’s interactions with its chosen individuals (SCP-XXXX-B). These works, symbolically (but not literally) tied to the Nine Muses of mythology, grow more potent in their anomalous effects, escalating the stakes with each iteration. For example, SCP-XXXX-A-1 induces astral projection, while SCP-XXXX-A-9 transforms individuals into immobile, worshipful states. Each creation is paired with a unique poem, blending themes of inspiration and SCP-XXXX’s cryptic motives.
The incident log for SCP-XXXX-A-7 showcases SCP-XXXX's interaction with Dr. Alexander Cain, a demoted Foundation researcher. At his lowest point, he creates SCP-XXXX-A-7, a device capable of containing SCP-YYY7 (a fictional SCP created for this article). The log highlights the dual nature of SCP-XXXX’s inspiration: a breakthrough accompanied by unintended consequences.
The narrative concludes with the mystery of the tenth creation and SCP-XXXX’s growing power, leaving its final purpose open to interpretation.
**Hook/Attention-Grabber:**
This SCP combines a compelling central entity with an escalating series of sub-anomalies. Themes of divine abandonment and inspiration are woven throughout, with the table format making the narrative progression accessible and engaging.
**Notes:** I have a full draft of this article with all addendums written, which I can not share here. But, the entire thing is fleshed out. Please feel free to ask questions if it will help with context not available in this short form.

Compare with the previous iteration of the thread: http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-16701839/the-tenth-sister#post-6416307
Page Layout: Will use standard containment and description. Addendums will include tables for easier reading of materials, because there is a lot.
Hook/Attention-Grabber: My hope is that each individual entity introduced, and their respective poem/description will engage the reader. I have also included an incident report in which an SCP foundation researcher placed on leave for unauthorized experimentation creates a scientific piece through this entity.
