**Item #**: SCP-8560
**Object Class**: Apollyon
**Special Containment Procedures**:
Due to its nature, SCP-8560 cannot be fully contained by any known means. Instead, efforts are focused on maintaining a balance between SCP-8560’s activity and the continued stability of the multiverse. SCP-8560 is located in an isolated extradimensional pocket designated Zone-0, accessible only via authorized Thaumiel-class Reality Gates. Entry is restricted to personnel with Level 5 clearance and direct authorization from the O5 Council.
Under no circumstances should SCP-8560’s activation sequence, the Omega Protocol, be initiated without unanimous consent from the O5 Council and the Universal Stability Directorate.
**Description**:
SCP-8560, colloquially referred to as "The End-Key Construct," is a self-evolving, hyper-dimensional entity capable of neutralizing or eradicating any anomalous entity or phenomenon within the SCP Foundation’s catalog. SCP-8560’s physical form is an amorphous construct of fluctuating energy and matter, existing simultaneously in multiple dimensions and timelines. Observers describe its appearance as a kaleidoscopic void interwoven with fractal patterns and glowing symbols representing untranslatable mathematical equations.
----
SCP-8560’s primary anomalous property is its ability to adapt and counteract any known anomaly, regardless of its nature, origin, or power level. This includes:
**Neutralizing reality-altering effects (e.g., SCP-343, SCP-239)**.
**Disrupting metaphysical entities (e.g., SCP-682, SCP-001 "Scarlet King")**.
**Restoring causality disrupted by temporal or multiversal anomalies**.
**Rewriting physical laws to contain phenomena that defy conventional understanding**.
**Activation Protocols**:
SCP-8560 remains dormant under normal circumstances. Upon activation of the Omega Protocol, SCP-8560 generates a localized "Anti-Anomalous Zone" (AAZ), a metaphysical construct in which all anomalous properties are nullified. This zone expands until the targeted anomaly is completely neutralized. SCP-8560’s adaptive mechanisms ensure that no entity can escape or counteract its effects.
However, activation comes with a significant risk: SCP-8560’s Anti-Anomalous Zone destabilizes surrounding reality, potentially causing irreversible damage to baseline existence. Overuse of SCP-8560 has been theorized to trigger an XK-Class "Reality Collapse" scenario, wherein all anomalous and non-anomalous constructs are erased.
**Addendum 8560-1**: Discovery
SCP-8560 was discovered embedded within a collapsed dimension referred to as “Dimension-Prime.” Initial exploration revealed a barren void populated by traces of fragmented universes. SCP-8560 was found at the dimensional core, surrounded by a vortex of annihilated anomalies. Analysis of dimensional residue suggests SCP-8560 activated to neutralize an "omni-threat entity" that threatened the totality of existence, but in doing so, consumed its own universe.
**Addendum 8560-2**: Testing Logs
**Test 8560-A01Objective**: Assess SCP-8560’s capability to neutralize SCP-682.
**Procedure**: SCP-682 was transported to Zone-0, where SCP-8560 was partially activated. SCP-8560 created an AAZ with a radius of 1 km. SCP-682 displayed signs of extreme distress before being completely neutralized within 42 seconds.
**Result**: SCP-682’s molecular structure was dismantled and reconstituted into inert matter. SCP-8560 deactivated after the neutralization, leaving no trace of SCP-682’s anomalous properties.
**Test 8560-B12Objective**: Simulate SCP-001 "The Scarlet King" containment.
**Procedure**: A simulated fragment of SCP-001’s dimensional anchor was introduced into Zone-0. SCP-8560 immediately activated, expanding the AAZ to encompass the simulation. The dimensional anchor destabilized and collapsed within 18 seconds.
**Result**: The simulated fragment was successfully neutralized. However, residual stress on local spacetime caused a temporary collapse of three adjacent dimensions, requiring extensive repairs by Foundation reality engineers.
**Addendum 8560-3**: Incident Log 8560-E
On 03/12/2032, SCP-8560 autonomously activated for 6.7 seconds without external input. During this period, it neutralized an unidentified Class-Archon anomaly attempting to breach Zone-0. Analysis of the anomaly’s remnants suggests it originated from an alternate Foundation timeline attempting to "shut down" SCP-8560. The event highlighted SCP-8560’s inherent autonomy and potential for self-preservation.
**Addendum 8560-4**: Ethical Concerns
SCP-8560’s unparalleled power raises critical ethical and existential concerns. While its potential to neutralize threats is invaluable, the cost of its activation—and the existential risk posed by its reality-altering capabilities—cannot be overstated. The Foundation has established the "Existential Oversight Commission" to monitor SCP-8560 and evaluate the necessity of its use.
**Note from O5-13**:
"SCP-8560 isn’t a weapon; it’s the last resort, the key to the final door. When all else fails, we will turn it, knowing full well it might lock us inside forever."
