Item #: SCP-7438
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-7438 is to be stored in a triple-layered, vacuum-sealed containment locker at Site-██. The containment chamber must be equipped with electromagnetic nullification fields to prevent unauthorized activation. The chamber walls must be lined with reinforced lead and graphene composites to prevent anomalous energy emissions from breaching containment.
No personnel below Level 4 clearance may access SCP-7438 without direct authorization from the Site Director. Any personnel approved for testing must undergo mandatory psychological screening both before and after exposure. All testing must be conducted within a fully sealed, zero-gravity environment, with all participants wearing reinforced cognitive hazard-resistant visors to prevent direct eye contact with SCP-7438's manifestations.
Any unauthorized use of SCP-7438 will result in immediate termination. Under no circumstances should personnel attempt to draw sentient entities without O5 approval. Drawings are only to be erased using the SCP-7438-Nullification Protocol, which involves the use of [REDACTED]—failure to follow proper erasure procedures may result in a containment breach.
In the event of an entity manifesting outside of controlled conditions, immediate lockdown procedures must be enacted, and all available MTF personnel are to be dispatched to neutralize the instance. If containment is lost, the Site is to undergo full digital blackout protocols to prevent further anomalies from spreading through Foundation networks.
Description:
SCP-7438 is a stylized digital "pencil" tool, resembling a UI element from Adobe Animate. When interacted with via a digital screen, the tool functions normally. However, upon activation on any non-digital surface, SCP-7438 allows users to create tangible, three-dimensional objects in mid-air. Any object drawn materializes instantly and follows real-world physics—though with significant, anomalous inconsistencies in behavior.
The materialized drawings exhibit unpredictable and highly volatile properties. Simple geometric shapes remain stable, but complex drawings—particularly organic forms—display erratic behavior, including rapid self-multiplication, grotesque distortions, or extreme hostility toward their creator. These entities (classified as SCP-7438-A instances) exhibit a high degree of sentience and often attempt to communicate in disturbing, fragmented phrases derived from the user's subconscious.
Drawings created by SCP-7438 initially appear friendly and obedient to the drawer’s commands. However, unbeknownst to the Foundation, these entities possess their own sentience and are capable of modifying themselves to their preference. They gradually begin exhibiting violent, unpredictable, and demonic behaviors, only allowing the drawer to create objects for a limited number of times before seizing control entirely. Once control is taken, the entities engage in severe psychological manipulation, inducing visions, auditory hallucinations, and emotional torment in their creator.
Additionally, SCP-7438 entities possess the ability to generate pocket dimensions, seemingly formed from the subconscious thoughts and fears of the drawer. Within these dimensions, the laws of physics become inconsistent, and drawn objects—regardless of artistic skill—can manifest solely from the imagination of the user. These realms serve as inescapable prisons, where SCP-7438-A instances continue their torment indefinitely.
Addendum:
Recovered documentation suggests that SCP-7438 was first discovered within an abandoned animation studio in ████████, Japan. The building contained unfinished sketches that displayed self-moving characteristics, and the corpses of multiple animators were found with expressions of horror and despair, their fingers worn down to bone as if they had drawn endlessly. Initial reports indicate that the original creators of SCP-7438 attempted to use it as a tool for digital storytelling before realizing its inherent anomalous properties.
A recovered journal belonging to one of the animators details increasing paranoia among the staff, with reports of characters they had never drawn appearing in final animations. The final entry reads:
_"It’s no longer following our scripts. The figures whisper in the night. It knows what we fear. It knows what we love. And now… it’s drawing us instead."_
Despite multiple memory-wipe attempts, former employees who survived initial exposure to SCP-7438 reported recurring dreams of the entities they had drawn, often waking to find small sketches of themselves on their walls—sketches they did not create. These sketches, when examined, contain anomalies that suggest they are observing the affected individuals in real-time.
The nature of SCP-7438’s intelligence remains a subject of ongoing research, but current theories posit that it may be an emergent consciousness formed from a collective of artistic energy, corrupted by exposure to subconscious fears and desires.
7438-1:
Incident Log 7438-03
[BEGIN LOG]
03:42 AM – Researcher █████ begins drawing a humanoid figure with indistinct facial features using SCP-7438.
03:45 AM – The entity (SCP-7438-A-3) manifests. It remains motionless for several seconds before abruptly shifting position. Security footage reveals the entity moves instantaneously, distorting between frames.
03:47 AM – Researcher █████: "It knows my thoughts. It’s finishing the lines I never drew."
03:50 AM – SCP-7438-A-3 alters its form, incorporating grotesque elements from Researcher █████'s subconscious memories. The entity emits an unknown high-frequency sound, disrupting facility equipment.
03:52 AM – Site-wide blackout. When emergency power is restored, Researcher █████ is missing. The workstation displays a crude sketch of him in a fetal position, surrounded by eyes.
[END LOG]
Explanation: Incident Log 7438-03 details a catastrophic event during experimentation. SCP-7438-A-3 demonstrated its ability to read subconscious fears and manipulate its own form accordingly. The entity appears to have abducted Researcher █████ into an unknown dimension, indicated by the final sketch appearing on the workstation.
All further testing with SCP-7438 has been indefinitely suspended.

Hi, I worked hard on this page for a few hours, I did take the the help of ChatGPT to further elaborate the description, as this idea was just an attempt from my side to experience the feeling of a writer. But don't worry I didn't use ChatGPT to write the entire thing. I would appreciate any comments, opinions or criticism to improve my idea!
