[[include component:image-block name=scp-8459.jpg|caption=Image of SCP-8459 in provisional containment.]]
**Item nº:** SCP-8459
**Object Class:** Keter
**Special Containment Procedures:** SCP-8459 is currently located at Site-25, in a circular underground chamber approximately 300 meters below ground. The chamber is constructed entirely of thick layers of reinforced lead, designed to block electromagnetic interference while minimizing its telepathic emissions; direct contact with SCP-8459 and its chamber is strictly prohibited.
Communication with the object must be carried out exclusively via SIEM (System for Interpreting Electromagnetic Messages), operated by a team of specialized technicians under the supervision of Dr. N. █████.
**Description:** SCP-8459 is a 8 meter tall rock monument made of an unidentified type of black stone. Its surface is covered in red inscriptions that occasionally glow.
Spectral analysis indicates that these symbols emit electromagnetic radiation of an unknown pattern.
The object does not physically move, but is fully sentient, communicating telepathically with any individual within its range. SCP-8459's personality is typically sarcastic, chaotic, and frequently obscene. The structure claims to have "once been human", though there are no records to support this claim. When emotionally provoked, SCP-8459 is capable of:
* Causes regional earthquakes.
* Induce mental breakdowns in susceptible individuals with a single thought.
* Temporarily disable electronic equipment or security systems by unidentified means.
* Projects sound illusions or visions directly into the brain of anyone near the chamber.

**Additional:** SCP-8459 spontaneously manifested in the year 19██, on a secluded farm in rural ████████, Austria. Reports gathered from local residents indicate that the night before its discovery, unusual disturbances occurred, including ground vibrations and widespread power outages within a radius of approximately 3 km.
The object remained in provisional containment for nine years until it was transferred to Site-25, where it remains to this day, under the care of Dr. N. █████.
**Addendum 8459.1:** The object occasionally refers to itself by the name //"ARKI".// The meaning of the name is unknown. Internal hypotheses suggest possible associations with the concept of an “ark,” or with an acronym whose significance has been lost or deliberately omitted.
Despite the lack of clarification, the term //“ARKI”// has been retained in internal documentation for the purposes of correlation and analysis, without affecting the anomaly’s official classification.
**Addendum 8459.2:** SCP-8459 remains inactive for most of the day, exhibiting significant levels of activity only during two specific periods: between 1:00 and 3:00 pm, and between 2:00 and 4:00 am. During its periods of activity, SCP-8459 emits telepathic emissions, which when decoded by specialized equipment //(SIEM),// manifest as songs and whistles of unidentified origin.
In addition, the object also emits irregular light patterns, ranging from short flashes to prolonged periods of intense brightness. The frequency and duration of these light emissions do not follow an apparent pattern.
It is possible that SCP-8459 is in a sleep-like state during periods of inactivity, though evidence indicates that the entity maintains full awareness of its surroundings, including all activity within the containment chamber and Site-25.
**Addendum 8459.3:** Unusual seismic activity or equipment failures in the vicinity of the chamber must be immediately reported and analyzed by specialized technicians. Such occurrences may indicate variations in the anomalous state of the object and must be treated as potential threats to the integrity of the containment.
**Addendum 8459.4** SCP-8459 frequently refers to war, mass destruction, and human suffering as //"aesthetic expressions".// The entity calls itself an Artist, claiming to compose beauty through the collapse of forms. Such statements are often accompanied by elaborate metaphors and references to extinct artistic movements. The entity has also shown particular interest in certain SCPs within its confinement.
In recorded transmissions, SCP-8459 stated: **"Entropy whispers. I merely follow the rhythm. You call it ruin... I call it art."** During a brief conversation with researchers, the object said, **"You shut your eyes to beauty. But I see... I hear! While everything collapses."**
Such statements reinforce the hypothesis that SCP-8459 not only possesses a highly developed consciousness, but also a structure of values and aesthetic perception completely incompatible with human standards.
**Addendum 8459.5** SCP-8459 has been observed to display a recurring possessive interest in **SCP-076.** Suggesting an intense emotional bond, SCP-8459 also displays a dislike for **SCP-073,** often expressing implicit hostility during communications involving that entity.
All requests made by SCP-8459 regarding direct or indirect contact with SCP-076 have been denied, [DATA EXPUNGED] The link between the two entities remains unknown and considered potentially dangerous.
**Addendum 8459.6:** **Containment Incidents**
[[div class="blockquote"]]
**Incident 8459-A:** During a containment breach, two security officers were directly exposed to SCP-8459. Within three seconds, both fell to the ground convulsing. Simultaneously, the object began to emit an intense glow, resulting in all lights within the containment chamber exploding. Following the incident, SCP-8459 remained inactive for 72 hours.
**Note from Dr.N. █████:** There are indications that the containment breach may have been caused by SCP-8459.
**Incident 8459-B:**SCP-8459 caused electronic equipment in the surveillance room associated with its containment to malfunction. All computers simultaneously shorted out, resulting in a total loss of equipment. When questioned about the incident, SCP-8459 merely stated that it was **"upset."**
**Incident 8459-C:** [DATA EXPUNGED]
**Incident 8459-D** [DATA EXPUNGED]
**Incident 8459-E** On ██/██/20██, SCP-8459's inscriptions began to ooze human blood, covering part of the containment chamber. The liquid reached approximately 14 cm in depth before drying completely after 6 hours, leaving no residue.
There was no change in SCP-8459's behavior during the event. The origin of the blood remains unknown.

**Addendum 8459.7: Entrevista com SCP-8459**
[[div class="blockquote"]]
**Interviewer:** Dr.N. █████
**Interviewee:** SCP-8459
------
[START OF RECORD]
(At 2:25 pm, SCP-8459 began emitting distorted frequencies in a regular pattern. Dr. N. █████ requests that the responsible technician contact the object via SIEM.)
**SCP-8459:** (whistling) Ah... Doctor? [INAUDIBLE]?
**Dr.N. █████:** This is Dr. N. █████ are you hearing clearly?
**SCP-8459:** ALWAYS~. (laughs) How can I help?
**Dr.N. █████:** (pause) Can you explain to me the event that occurred last week?
**SCP-8459:** (laughs) oh... doctor... [CENSORED]? Just a little touch on my art! I'm an artist remember?
**Dr.N. █████:** Are you aware of what you did?
**SCP-8459:** Aware? Of course! Regretful? NO! I loved frying that guy's brain...
**Dr.N. █████:** SCP-8459 This interview is for scientific purposes, please cooperate.
**SCP-8459:** Scientific? (Laughter) Oh, let me write an article on how I can do [CENSORED].
**Dr.N. █████:** (long pause) that will be all for today.
**SCP-8459:** Already? We've barely started! Are you going to leave me talking to myself again? [INAUDIBLE] Coward...
[END OF RECORD]
[[/div]]
The object continued whistling until 2:41 pm.
[[footnote]]
SCP-8459 displays provocative and sometimes manipulative behavior.
Completely ignore any form of unauthorized communication //(whispers)// coming from SCP-8459, responding or showing reaction may intensify its anomalous activity.
