Item #: SCP-8690
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures:
Due to the nature of SCP-8690, traditional containment is not only ineffective, but fundamentally inapplicable. SCP-8690 exists outside conventional linear temporality, manifesting in irregular bursts across disconnected points in time-space. As such, all efforts are to be directed toward predictive modeling under Project GOLGOTHA-CROWN, overseen by Temporal Anomalies Division Theta-9.
Containment personnel exposed to SCP-8690-related phenomena are to undergo immediate cognitohazard cleansing and be administered Class-XI mnestic dampeners. Any mention of "Epoch Blood," "Seventh Pulse," or the phrase “When the hands reverse, He will unblink” is to be considered a precursor event and escalated to Overseer attention. No memetic triggers associated with SCP-8690 are to be disseminated across digital neural processing systems under Protocol Nine-Veil.
Description:
SCP-8690 is a non-localized temporal phenomenon characterized by chronotaxic inversion—a reversal or disjunction of causal reality wherein effects precede causes, and entropy accumulates in patterns inconsistent with known physical law. Unlike classical time loops or retrocausal events, SCP-8690 distorts temporality with purpose, behaving not as a blind force but as an intelligence rooted deep within the geometry of time itself.
Events linked to SCP-8690 often involve sudden environmental decay, the spontaneous aging of matter, and auditory hallucinations in affected individuals. These sounds, referred to as “the Pulse,” manifest as a rhythmic, heartbeat-like thrum perceived simultaneously in all languages as a wordless invocation.
Recovered documentation from Site-██ (now lost in temporal recursion) refers to SCP-8690 as "The Seventh Scar," a name encoded into the event logs during an untraceable breach on ██/██/████. Cross-referencing this phrase within Foundation mytho-archeological archives revealed a tenuous but chilling correlation with an ancient apocalyptic figure—known in fragmented texts as the “Stillborn King of All Futures.”
This entity—assumed lost or fictional by most Foundation mythographers—is believed by some to be an aspect, avatar, or imprisoned echo of the Scarlet King, manifesting through SCP-8690 as a temporal virus: not sentient in the traditional sense, but conscious in time.
Addendum 8690-A: (Recovered Fragment from Clockwork Narrative Analysis Log – Author Unknown)
“He will not come with flame, nor with trumpet, but with the slow undoing of time’s grip. The clocks will bleed. The minutes will forget the hours. And the children—oh, the children will dream of him before their parents are even born. You will call it an anomaly. But some clocks were always meant to break. Blood for he.”
