**Special Containment Procedures:**
SCP-7536 is stored in a steel-reinforced reliquary vault with a locking mechanism in Site-77 Anomalous Artifact Wing. The vault is required to be under 24-hour surveillance, with thaumaturgic nullification runes inscribed on the interior surface and screened for esoteric variances. No staff are allowed to open SCP-7536 storage chest without Level 4 clearance and an active Site Director present.
All testing of SCP-7536 is to be done using a designated Class-D subject with a shock collar and under biometric monitoring. The subject is to be observed for a minimum of 24 hours after exposure to SCP-7536. Should the prophecy written on the sword begin to manifest, the subject is to be euthanized and cremated as soon as possible following death. No staff with prior psychological disturbances or religious affiliations are to be exposed to the writings under any circumstances.
The missing fragment of SCP-7536, herein designated SCP-7536-B, is a priority for global effort. Foundation front operations centered in archaeological institutions, private collections, and auction houses are to follow leads that suggest ancient golden-bladed weapons or prophetic texts.
**Description:**
SCP-7536 is the contents of an old wooden chest (c. 1.1m x 0.6m x 0.5m), discovered sealed with a now-inert thaumaturgic lock mechanism. There is a broken longsword SCP-7536-A inside, the blade high-carbon steel streaked with electrum and inlaid with fragments of emerald and garnet. The sword is neatly broken at around the middle, the fracture showing crystallization and entropy decay consistent with temporal dislocation.
[[include component:image-block name=Sword.JPEG| caption=SCP-7536-A ]]
Along the fuller of SCP-7536-A is a variable inscription in Old High Pictish script, which is translatable only once it has been in contact with a living organism. When touched, the writing changes to present an instant prophecy about the future of the one touching it. The prophecies have varied from:
**D-2094:** "He shall drown in fire, whose hands craved light."
Subject spontaneously combusted seven hours later in a monitored containment cell. No ignition source found.
**D-4455:** "And the false father shall weep blood beneath a crimson sky."
Subject died from concurrent cranial hemorrhage and ocular rupture. A small red aurora effect was noted above Site-77 at the time of death.
Each occurrence of prophecy fulfillment has been followed by subject death via exact, sometimes ironic, methods outlined within the prophecy itself. SCP-7536-A has been no different in ███ test cases.
Metallurgical analysis of SCP-7536-A indicates that the item was constructed using an unidentified method that utilized both physical and non-corporeal binding techniques. SCP-7536 predates existing written history but bears iconography analogous to that of Northern European war cults from the early 6th century, most of which detail twin-bladed devices used by divine or cursed heroes.
The other half of the sword, SCP-7536-B, remains unrecovered. From inscriptions on the lid of the chest and thaumaturgic residue, it is estimated SCP-7536-B still has considerable autonomous capability and holds a counteractive or amplifying role to SCP-7536-A. The location of SCP-7536-B is presently unknown.

[[div class="blockquote"]]
= **VIDEO LOG**
----
**DATE: ██/██/20██**
**SUBJECT:** D-8722 (Male, 28, history of compulsive lying)
**SUPERVISING OFFICER:** Dr. Miranda Chau
**OBJECTIVE:** Further analysis of SCP-7536 inscription behavior and timeline correlation between contact and prophetic manifestation.
**PROCEDURE:** Subject instructed to enter Chamber 77-Omega equipped with biometric monitors. Under video and thaumaturgic observation, D-8722 was ordered to open SCP-7536 chest and make direct contact with SCP-7536-A.
----
[BEGIN LOG]
**00:00:00:** Subject opens the chest. SCP-7536-A begins low-frequency humming.
**00:00:12:** Upon touching the hilt, the blade etching activates, glowing faintly blue. Subject reads aloud the inscription.
“The liar shall choke on his own truth, and all will believe him too late.”
**00:01:43:** Subject exhibits initial symptoms of confusion, repeatedly states, “I don’t know what that means,” followed by nervous laughter.
**00:02:30:** Subject begins uncontrollably confessing to various past deceptions (theft of inmate rations, falsified emotional trauma during intake). Staff record at least 27 distinct falsehoods admitted within a 3-minute span.
**00:05:01:** Subject breaks down, weeping, and begins making wild claims including:
“I killed the warden in Arizona. I made up my name. I never had a sister. I caused the [REDACTED] incident with the coffee pot.”
**00:06:10** Words become choked. Subject grasps throat and collapses.
**00:06:14:** Internal video shows severe tracheal collapse without external trauma. Autopsy later confirms soft tissue turned to dense calcite-like structure.
**00:06:35** Broadcast system throughout Site-77 intercoms malfunctions briefly, relaying Subject’s final words in perfect clarity:
“It was all true.”
-----
[END LOG]
[[/div]]
**Aftermath:**
Ten hours post-test, six staff members requested psychological evaluation due to spontaneous doubts about long-held beliefs, including personal memories. Dr. Chau experienced a 6-hour dissociative fugue, during which she claimed to be “an archivist of prophetic deaths” and wrote an 18-page letter in a dead language, later identified as Ugaritic.
**Note from Dr. Chau:**
“//The sword doesn't lie. It gives you the one truth you can’t escape from. And knowing that truth will kill you. It isn’t death that’s the weapon. It’s the certainty.//”
**Addendum ███-01 – Chest Inscription (Recovered Fragment):**
During early containment, Foundation personnel discovered an inscription seared into the inner lid of SCP-7576's chest, partly hidden beneath charred splinters and thaumic ash. The message was revealed through enhanced imaging:
"//When the Blade is Whole, the End is Known. And Knowing is the Final Cut.//"
Residual aura sweeps picked up faint cognitive hazard residue, now dormant. Linguistic analysis indicates the phrase derived from a pre-Celtic proto-script. Foundation documentation does not have similar texts. Dr. [REDACTED] pointed out linguistic pattern similar to an oath or prayer, not a warning.
**Addendum ███-02 – Dr. Bright Field Memo (Internal Communication):**
[[div class="fancybox"]]
So we've got half a death-sword doing riddles for anyone stupid enough to pick it up, and a missing half that likely destroys the world if we glue it back together. Just another Monday at the Foundation. Next time I want D-class with religious studies experience. Perhaps we'll get a prophecy for something helpful. Like where my coffee mug has gone.
— Dr. Jack Bright, on reviewing Test Log T-LXIV-Prophet
[[/div]]
[[div class="page"]]
Cross-referencing the recovered inscription against other anomalous religious artifacts of known origin led Dr. Bright to sanction a large-scale search for cultural symbols under Project ORACLE.
Sub-AI "RUNE-EATER" for linguistics detected possible connections with a Mesopotamian fragment owned by a Hungarian private collector. This was the starting point for the next phase.
**Addendum ███-03 – Operation “Golden Fang” Underway:**
Following internal clearance, Operation GOLDEN FANG was initiated to find SCP-7536-B. Intelligence cross-referenced the prophecy matrix of SCP-7536-A with auction history, black-market reliquaries, and anomalous cult activity.
Original lead: A broken blade characteristic of SCP-7536 craftsmanship was showcased in the catalog of a private Budapest auction as "The King's Second Silence," with the following description: "//It ends the voice, but begins the echo.//"
Resulting Intelligence Report 77-FANG is presently Level 4 classification. Retrieval team "Midas-9 (Gilded Truth)" deployed.

**Special Containment Procedures:**
SCP-7536 is currently contained in a secure steel-reinforced reliquary vault at Site-77’s Anomalous Artifact Wing. The vault must remain under 24-hour surveillance, equipped with thaumaturgic nullification runes etched into the inner surface and monitored for esoteric fluctuations. No personnel are permitted to open SCP-7536’s storage chest without Level 4 authorization and active presence of a Site Director.
All interactions with SCP-7536 must involve a designated Class-D subject outfitted with a shock collar and monitored via biometrics. Once contact with SCP-7536 occurs, the subject must be observed for a minimum of 24 hours. Should the prophecy etched into the sword begin to manifest, the subject is to be terminated and incinerated immediately post-demise. Under no circumstances should any staff with preexisting psychological conditions or religious tendencies be exposed to the inscriptions.
The missing fragment of SCP-7536, hereby designated SCP-7536-B, is considered a global priority object. Foundation front operations embedded in archaeological institutions, private collections, and auction houses are instructed to investigate leads suggesting the presence of ancient golden-bladed weaponry or prophetic inscriptions.
**Description:**
SCP-7536 refers to the contents of a weathered wooden chest (approx. 1.1m x 0.6m x 0.5m), found sealed with a now-inert thaumaturgic lock mechanism. Within lies a broken longsword (SCP-7536-A), the blade made of high-carbon steel veined with electrum and inlaid with fragmented emerald and garnet shards. The weapon is severed cleanly near the midpoint, the break site demonstrating crystallization and entropy decay consistent with temporal dislocation.
Etched along the fuller of SCP-7536-A is a shifting inscription in archaic High Pictish script, translatable only once it has been physically grasped by a sentient individual. Upon contact, the text morphs to depict a direct prophecy concerning the fate of the wielder. These predictions have included:
**D-2094:** “He shall drown in fire, whose hands craved light.”
Subject spontaneously combusted seven hours later while inside a monitored containment cell. No ignition source found.
**D-4455:** “And the false father shall weep blood beneath a crimson sky.”
Subject expired from simultaneous cranial hemorrhage and ocular rupture. At time of death, a minor red aurora phenomenon was recorded above Site-77.
Each instance of prophecy manifestation is followed by subject death through precise, often ironic means described within the prophecy itself. SCP-7536-A has shown no variation in this pattern despite over ███ test cases.
Analysis of SCP-7536-A's metallurgy reveals it was forged through an unknown process involving both physical and non-physical binding methods. The sword predates known written records but incorporates iconography consistent with early 6th century Northern European war cults, many of which depict dual-blade relics wielded by divine or doomed champions.
The second half of the sword, SCP-7536-B, remains unrecovered. Based on inscriptions in the chest lid and thaumaturgic residue, it is believed SCP-7536-B retains significant autonomous properties and may possess a counteractive or amplifying function to SCP-7536-A. Its current whereabouts are unknown.

Staff discussion notes, for records-keeping:
- "I think there's a good chance this is at least AI-assisted. This user misuses tenses but also somehow writes: [description excerpt] Also note the really random "SCP-7356-A" that appears to be inserted into what would be a full sentence […] there's no commas. It looks like someone just dropped the SCP designation right into the sentence."
- "There's just a bunch of really weird inconsistencies within the article itself."
- "Revision 1, for anyone else looking. This is AI without a doubt. It's completely different from the posted version, bearing none of the errors in writing present in the posted version."
The user also has another sandbox with AI-generated content: https://scp-sandbox-3.wikidot.com/8754 with full draft posted in Revision 4. Following edits are mostly for formatting, changing the ACS header, adding images, and one addition of a log (which does not read like the initial draft's typing)

**Special Containment Procedures:** SCP-8754 is to be stored unfolded and suspended within a vacuum-sealed, magnetically-levitated glass containment cube (2.5m x 2.5m x 2.5m) at Site-73’s Dimensional Anomalies Wing. No physical interaction is permitted without prior approval from two Level 4 personnel and a verified return anchor signal.
Interaction with SCP-8754 is to occur only within a specially-prepared chamber containing a quantum tether array calibrated to the subject’s precise bio-signature. Any subject engaging in SCP-8754 testing must wear a neural anchor collar to prevent permanent trans-dimensional displacement. In the event of a failed return or catastrophic divergence, the chamber is to be immediately flooded with Class-3 countermemetic gas to prevent cross-reality contamination.
No personnel are permitted to wrap themselves in SCP-8754 outside of supervised experimental procedure. Use of SCP-8754 for exploration, rescue, or interdimensional travel requires explicit O5 approval.
**Description:** SCP-8754 is a twin-sized cotton bedsheet (195cm x 135cm), light gray in color, with no manufacturer tags or stitching. The fabric demonstrates no anomalous texture, composition, or electromagnetic signature under normal analysis. However, when SCP-8754 is used to completely cover a human subject’s body — either while lying down or fully wrapping the body while standing — the subject will instantaneously vanish.
The subject reappears approximately 0.72 seconds later in an alternate version of reality, precisely within the same physical coordinates, as determined by satellite triangulation and temporal pulse mapping. These alternate universes vary in timeline, causality, and in some cases, fundamental physical laws.
SCP-8754 does not remain in the original universe during this event. Instead, it vanishes along with the subject and reappears with them in the alternate universe. If the subject returns (which is rare), they bring the sheet back with them.
Subjects exposed to SCP-8754 report intense disorientation, visual hallucinations, and metaphysical side effects upon return. Return events are inconsistent, with only 3 of 22 test subjects having returned unassisted. One subject, Dr. ██████, returned fused with an alternate version of himself — both entities partially merged, mentally unstable, and requiring termination.
**Addendum:** SCP-8754 was discovered folded neatly at the foot of an abandoned hospital bed in ███████, Nebraska. Surveillance shows a nurse entering the room, then vanishing from all recordings. She has never been found. A handwritten note was recovered underneath the mattress, reading:
“Slept like a baby. Woke up somewhere else. Can’t wait to try again. — J.”
Foundation linguists later confirmed the handwriting belonged to a patient who died in that hospital in 1987. The signature, however, matched no known records.
