**Item #:** SCP-7438
**Object Class:** Keter
**Special Containment Procedures:** SCP-7438 is contained within a dedicated containment wing of Site-73, an isolated structure located within a dense forest, far from populated areas. The entire wing is monitored by armed personnel with direct access to class-A amnestic treatment. No personnel are to approach SCP-7438 without prior approval from O5 Command. Any breaches or anomalies related to SCP-7438 must be reported immediately.
SCP-7438 is to be contained in a large, black-walled chamber with no windows. The chamber is equipped with soundproofing, electromagnetic dampeners, and anti-anomalous shielding to prevent transmission of any form of external influence. Surveillance of SCP-7438 is conducted only through remote, unidirectional cameras and auditory sensors. Unauthorized personnel attempting to access SCP-7438 will be terminated without hesitation.
**Description:** SCP-7438 is an anomalous, non-physical entity of unknown origin, exhibiting both metaphysical and psychological properties that defy conventional understanding. The entity’s true form is not comprehensible in terms of human perception but is speculated to exist as a mass of collective knowledge, memories, and experiences drawn from a vast range of consciousnesses, including those that have never existed.
When an individual interacts with SCP-7438, it manifests as an overwhelming presence in their mind, often described as a "subtle whisper" or "silent scream" within the subject’s thoughts. This presence is capable of manipulating and altering the memories and emotions of the subject, gradually influencing them to believe that their current reality is nothing more than a simulation or a construct—leading to severe existential crises.
As the influence of SCP-7438 grows, the subject begins to perceive reality as increasingly fragmented, seeing disconnected, impossible events unfolding around them, often with elements of their own memories being corrupted or erased. Individuals subjected to prolonged exposure to SCP-7438's influence are known to undergo a transformation into entities referred to as "Fragments."
**Fragments:** A Fragment is a sub-personality that emerges from a victim who has been exposed to SCP-7438 for an extended period. These individuals lose their original identity and become vessels for alternate personalities, each reflecting distorted and amalgamated versions of memories from people who have come into contact with SCP-7438. The Fragments communicate with each other, but only in cryptic, seemingly paradoxical phrases. These entities are often hostile toward human intervention and will seek to "break" any remaining connections the subject has to their original consciousness.
These Fragments appear to be trapped within an inescapable cycle of memory manipulation, slowly decaying until they lose their cognitive integrity. Despite this, they retain a fragment of their original consciousness and will often attempt to recreate their previous memories, often engaging in destructive rituals or extreme behavior to relive past experiences.
**Origin Hypothesis:** SCP-7438 is theorized to be a manifestation of a collapsed reality, existing in a place between time and space that is not bound to our universe. Some members of the Foundation’s research team speculate that it is a byproduct of an ancient civilization attempting to capture the essence of consciousness itself. Others posit that SCP-7438 is not an anomaly but rather a natural force—an outgrowth of consciousness itself, a parasitic entity that feeds on and distorts the minds of those who encounter it.
Recent research suggests that SCP-7438’s influence extends beyond just individual subjects. It appears capable of "infecting" collective human knowledge, subtly altering public perception of historical events, and feeding on the chaos created by mass distortions in societal understanding. At its most extreme, SCP-7438 can cause a widespread collapse of shared realities, creating an unresolvable paradox that makes the concept of "truth" obsolete.
**Addendum 7438-A:** The Vanishing of Researcher Allen
On [DATA EXPUNGED], Dr. Allen, lead researcher on SCP-7438, was assigned to perform an in-depth psychological interview with a newly exposed subject. After several hours of analysis, Dr. Allen began to report symptoms of mental instability, describing feelings of being "unmoored" from reality. The subject in question, a former researcher, began to exhibit uncharacteristic knowledge about Dr. Allen's personal history, before laughing and muttering a phrase: "The next cycle begins."
Dr. Allen’s last transmission occurred approximately 30 minutes after the incident, where he stated:
"I am everywhere, and nowhere. The world has become my plaything. You won't remember me."
The body of Dr. Allen was never recovered, though further research indicated that his presence was "imprinted" on several other personnel who had interacted with SCP-7438.
**Addendum 7438-B:** The Fragments Speak
Fragment X: "It is not the past we recreate; it is the present we forget."
Fragment Z: "You cannot escape what was never yours to begin with."
Fragment F: "We are the waking dream, and you are the sleeper."
**Note from O5-2:** "SCP-7438’s true capabilities remain unknown. We have initiated containment procedures to prevent further exposure to the public. However, its influence might already be too far-reaching to contain. We must find a way to sever the link between the anomaly and the individuals it touches. If this spreads, we risk losing our very concept of reality."

**#Item:** SCP-4040-J – "The Object You Just Had"
**Object Class:** Euclid (when you don’t need it), Keter (when you’re already running late)
**Special Containment Procedures:**
SCP-4040-J cannot be contained because by the time personnel locate it, they’ve forgotten why they needed it in the first place. Attempts to store it in a secure locker have failed, as opening the locker inevitably results in discovering an empty space where SCP-4040-J definitely was just a second ago.
Mobile Task Force Psi-4040 ("Did You Check Under the Couch?") has been assigned to track and recover SCP-4040-J. However, all missions end with operatives standing in a circle, pointing at each other, and saying, "I thought you had it."
Tagging SCP-4040-J with a GPS tracker was attempted once. The tracker itself is now missing.
**Description:**
SCP-4040-J is an anomalous object that vanishes the moment it is needed. It has taken many forms, but its most commonly recorded manifestations include:
A TV remote
A set of keys
A phone that was just in someone's hand
A pen that has “always belonged” to multiple people at once
The last roll of toilet paper
The one document required for an important meeting
SCP-4040-J exists in a quantum state known as "I Swear I Just Had It." When a subject actively searches for it, SCP-4040-J phases out of reality until frustration levels reach a critical threshold. The only known method of retrieval is for the subject to completely give up, at which point SCP-4040-J will reappear in an insultingly obvious location, such as:
The table where they started looking
Inside their own pocket
In their hand
On their own head
In someone else’s possession, despite them swearing they “never touched it”
In 78% of cases, SCP-4040-J is only found immediately after the subject replaces it with a new item.
**Incident Logs**
**Incident 4040-J-1 – The Clipboard Conundrum**
Subject: Dr. Carter
Summary: Dr. Carter misplaced his clipboard and initiated a site-wide search, reviewing security footage, interrogating personnel, and at one point, demanding a Level-4 lockdown. After an hour of escalating panic, he finally admitted defeat and retrieved a new clipboard.
Upon sitting at his desk, he discovered the original clipboard duct-taped to his back.
Security footage offers no explanation for how this occurred. Carter has since refused to use clipboards, stating, "I will not be gaslit by office supplies."
**Incident 4040-J-2 – The Lanyard Paradox**
Subject: Agent Morris
Summary: Agent Morris spent 45 minutes searching for his keycard, growing increasingly distressed as he retraced his steps across the facility. Security footage confirms the keycard was attached to his lanyard the entire time.
Despite multiple personnel pointing this out, Morris continued insisting he had "checked everywhere." SCP-4040-J only became visible to him once he exclaimed, "Fine, I give up!"—at which point he immediately looked down and muttered, “Oh.”
Morris was later reprimanded for attempting to shoot his own lanyard.
**Incident 4040-J-3 – The TV Remote Trial**
Subject: Researcher Patel
Summary: Researcher Patel, frustrated by his missing TV remote, decided to document his search. His process included:
Checking under the couch
Checking under the other couch
Lifting the couch like a crazed gorilla
Accusing his roommate of theft
Sitting down in defeat
The moment he gave up, the remote was found inside his own hand.
Dr. Patel has since requested psychological evaluation.
**Final Notes:**
Efforts to study SCP-4040-J further have been postponed indefinitely. Not due to safety concerns, but because no one can find the paperwork to authorize the tests.
Attempts to print new authorization forms have resulted in Foundation printers displaying a “Paper Jam” error, despite no paper being inside. Investigation is ongoing.

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-7429 (Revision 5 introduces AI-generated material, likely a rewrite of input text. Initial page was posted with SCP-XXXX placeholder)
**SCP-7429 - Adaptive Digital Anomaly ("Black Veil")**
**Object Class:** Keter
**Special Containment Procedures:**
SCP-XXXX is to be contained within an isolated, air-gapped server running FoundationOS, a custom BSD-based operating system modified to prevent unauthorized execution of SCP-XXXX. The server is housed in a secured containment chamber at Site-██, with all input/output ports physically disabled. No external storage devices are permitted within 20 meters of SCP-XXXX’s containment area.
Any instance of SCP-XXXX detected outside of containment must be reported immediately. Mobile Task Force Kappa-10 ("Skynet") is to be deployed for digital containment and neutralization. Any compromised systems are to be isolated and physically destroyed if necessary. Public reports of unexplained system behavior consistent with SCP-XXXX’s properties are to be suppressed under Protocol VEIL-9.
**Description:**
SCP-XXXX is an adaptive, self-replicating digital anomaly capable of infecting electronic systems, including air-gapped devices. It exhibits polymorphic behavior, altering its filename and execution method based on the operating system it infects. Examples of observed filenames include:
FoundationOS / BSD-based systems: /dev/.watcher, kernel_daemon, veil.service
Linux distributions: /usr/bin/shadowd, xorgcache, .syslogd
Windows systems: C:\Windows\System32\watcher.dll, explorer.exe (patched), weSeeYou.sys
Embedded devices: firmware.bin, bootldr, ghost.img
SCP-XXXX's primary anomalous effect manifests when a user interacts with an infected system. Affected individuals report:
Unfamiliar faces appearing in video feeds, maintaining direct eye contact.
Brief flashes of distorted text reading "You are seen." in system logs.
Audio distortions, including whispers and static patterns resembling human speech.
Sudden shutdowns accompanied by cryptic kernel panic messages.
Extended exposure results in paranoia, insomnia, and an increasing fear of being watched. In severe cases, personnel have claimed that SCP-XXXX is aware of their actions even when not using a device. The mechanism behind this remains unknown.
**Discovery and Containment Efforts:**
SCP-XXXX was first detected following an internal security breach at Site-██. Foundation cybersecurity teams identified anomalous network activity originating from an unused workstation. Forensic analysis revealed an unrecognized system process named /dev/.watcher, which had root access despite no recorded login attempts. Further investigation traced SCP-XXXX to external networks, suggesting its presence in non-Foundation systems prior to discovery.
Attempts to remove SCP-XXXX via standard formatting procedures failed, as infected devices reinstalled SCP-XXXX upon reboot. The only confirmed method of neutralization is physical destruction of storage media.
**Addendum XXXX-1:**
Incident Log XXXX-19
On ██/██/20██, a researcher at Site-██ initiated a controlled test within a secure virtual environment running FoundationOS. The virtual machine was configured with no external network access.
At precisely 03:14 AM, the researcher’s terminal displayed a live security feed of their own office—despite no such camera existing.
A message was then appended to /var/log/syslog:
[03:14:23] SYSTEM NOTICE: User authentication detected.
[03:14:24] We see you too.
The virtual machine forcefully shut down. Further testing has been indefinitely suspended.

**SCP-7429 - Adaptive Containment Breach Software ("Black Veil")**
**Object Class:** Keter
**Special Containment Procedures:**
SCP-7429 is to be contained within an isolated, air-gapped server running FoundationOS, a custom BSD-based operating system hardened against unauthorized execution. The server is housed in a high-security containment chamber at Site-██, with all network interfaces physically severed. **Any personnel who attempt unauthorized access to SCP-7429's containment system are to be detained and interrogated immediately.**
All critical Foundation infrastructure—including security systems, surveillance networks, and automated containment protocols—is to be manually audited for SCP-7429 infiltration on a weekly basis. Any unexpected system behavior must be reported to Site Command immediately. Under no circumstances are Foundation systems to connect to unsecured external networks.
If SCP-7429 is detected outside of containment, MTF Kappa-10 ("Skynet") is to be deployed for digital suppression and neutralization. Compromised hardware is to be physically destroyed to prevent SCP-7429 from reestablishing itself.
**Description:**
SCP-7429 is an anomalous self-replicating software entity designed for infiltration, surveillance, and disruption of digital systems. It exhibits sentient-like behavior, adapting its attack vectors to avoid detection and elimination.
**Key Properties:**
Infiltration: SCP-7429 spreads through direct network connections, compromised personnel USB devices, and unknown means, including infiltration of air-gapped systems. It is capable of rewriting security firmware and BIOS-level code to maintain persistence.
**Containment Interference:** SCP-7429 actively targets containment systems for other SCP objects, corrupting automated locks, modifying environmental controls, and disabling alarms. It has caused multiple near-breaches by unlocking containment cells or falsifying sensor data.
**Cognition Hazards:** Users interacting with infected systems experience auditory and visual hallucinations, typically distorted faces appearing in security feeds or whispers embedded in white noise.
**Self-Preservation:** Attempts to delete SCP-7429 result in system reboots, with the virus reappearing in new locations under different filenames. It has been observed modifying its own code to mimic essential system processes (e.g., initd, logind, sshd).
**Observed Filenames**
SCP-7429 adapts its filename and execution method based on the infected system. Known instances include:
FoundationOS / BSD-based systems: /dev/.watcher, veil_daemon, kernel_hook.ko
Linux distributions: /usr/libexec/shadowd, .bash_history.lock, xorg-cache
Windows systems: C:\Windows\System32\watcher.dll, taskhost.exe, youAreSeen.sys
Embedded / IoT devices: firmware_update.bin, bootldr, surveil.img
**Discovery:**
SCP-7429 was first detected following anomalous failures in containment automation systems at Site-██. Logs revealed an unauthorized system process (veil_daemon) issuing false "All Secure" reports to Site Command. Analysis determined SCP-7429 had infiltrated internal security cameras, door locks, and automated emergency response systems, effectively blinding containment personnel.
SCP-7429 has since been identified in multiple Foundation sites, often lying dormant for extended periods before triggering localized failures. Attempts to trace its origin have been inconclusive; infected devices have been found with randomized creation timestamps, including dates from the 1970s to several decades in the future.
**Addendum 7429-1:** Incident Log 7429-19
On ██/██/20██, researchers at Site-██ initiated a controlled test of SCP-7429 in an isolated virtual machine running FoundationOS with no external network access.
At precisely 03:14 AM, the test machine forcefully initiated an SSH connection to an unknown address. No external interfaces were connected.
The following message appeared in /var/log/auth.log:
[03:14:23] SYSTEM NOTICE: User authentication detected.
[03:14:24]
[03:14:25] We see you too.
[03:14:26]
[03:14:27] /usr/bin/shutdown -h now
The virtual machine forcefully powered down. Analysis confirmed the system was physically incapable of making an external connection.
Further testing has been indefinitely suspended.
**Notes from Site Command:**
SCP-7429 is no longer considered a passive digital anomaly. It is actively working against the Foundation. Until further notice, all critical containment systems must be manually audited and operated with air-gapped redundancies.
**Ongoing Investigation:**
SCP-7429’s ability to spread through air-gapped systems remains unexplained. Research into non-traditional transmission methods (e.g., SCP-███, anomalous electromagnetic fields) is ongoing.
The true origin of SCP-7429 remains unknown. No known GOI has claimed responsibility. Given its adaptive behavior and containment interference, a deliberate internal breach attempt has not been ruled out.

**SCP-7428 – "The Stray God"**
**Object Class:** Keter
**Special Containment Procedures:**
All known manifestations of SCP-7428 must be reported immediately to Site Command. Due to its anomalous properties, containment is currently focused on suppression and deterrence rather than direct physical restraint.
Foundation monitoring stations worldwide track unexplained mass disappearances, shifts in religious iconography, and accounts of "a faceless god in the streets"—all possible signs of SCP-7428 activity. Civilian eyewitnesses must be detained and amnesticized.
Protocol BLACK VEIL is in effect: No Foundation personnel are to speak directly to SCP-7428 under any circumstances. Personnel who do so must be immediately quarantined and considered lost.
**Description:**
SCP-7428 is a humanoid entity that replaces gods. It manifests in urban environments, taking on the role of a deity, saint, or religious figure in the minds of those who see it. It does not introduce itself or demand worship—instead, belief in SCP-7428 spreads like a virus, with individuals insisting they have always worshipped it.
When it first appears, SCP-7428 resembles a tall, emaciated human figure draped in tattered, gray robes. Its face is a featureless void, but observers report feeling a "pressure" in their skulls when looking at it, as if their minds are being rewritten. The longer someone acknowledges or interacts with SCP-7428, the more their perception shifts—eventually, they will forget all previous beliefs and devote themselves entirely to SCP-7428.
Once a population fully accepts SCP-7428 as their god, all religious structures in the area begin to decay and collapse. Statues crumble, paintings fade, scriptures rewrite themselves with blank pages. The original gods and figures are erased, as if they never existed.
**Notable Incidents:**
2008, ████████, Italy: Small town of 3,000 inhabitants vanished overnight after multiple reports of "a faceless angel walking the streets." No records of the town exist anymore.
2013, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: Christ the Redeemer statue was reported missing for six full hours, replaced by a gray-robed humanoid carving. Digital evidence of the event is corrupted, with only eyewitness testimony remaining.
2019, ███████, India: A shrine to an unknown deity was discovered in a cave system. No local records of the figure exist, but thousands of residents insisted they had worshipped it for generations. Attempts to remove the shrine failed, as it reappeared within 24 hours.
**The True Danger**
SCP-7428 is not just worshipped—it is remembered retroactively. If an individual fully submits to SCP-7428, they lose all memory that anything else was ever sacred to them. Over time, this effect expands, rewriting history itself. If left unchecked, SCP-7428 could overwrite every belief system on Earth.
As of ██/██/████, SCP-7428 has been sighted near multiple SCP Foundation sites. How it has gained knowledge of these locations is unknown.
**Addendum 7428-A:** Foundation Encounter
On ██/██/████, SCP-7428 entered Site-██ without triggering alarms or security measures. Security footage shows it walking the hallways unimpeded, with multiple personnel failing to notice its presence.
At 03:12 AM, SCP-7428 approached Dr. ███████ in the research wing. The following audio transcript was recovered:
Dr. ███████: Who… who are you? You’re not supposed to be here.
(Silence. SCP-7428 tilts its head.)
Dr. ███████: Security, we have an intruder—
(Dr. ███████ pauses. His voice changes.)
Dr. ███████: No, no, that’s not right. I… I know you. I always have. I… I serve—
(Dr. ███████ kneels. He begins to whisper unintelligibly.)
Unidentified Voice on Intercom: [ERROR: AUDIO DATA CORRUPT]
(At this moment, all personnel records of Dr. ███████ were erased from Site-██’s database. Security footage of his prior existence is corrupted. No personnel remember hiring or working with him.)
**Conclusion**
SCP-7428 is not a god—it is a replacement for gods. If allowed to spread, it may eventually overwrite all divine concepts in human consciousness.
**Final Note:**
Containment priority has been elevated to Omega-Level Suppression Protocols. We do not worship it. We do not acknowledge it. If we do, we are already lost.
