[[[SCP-8252]]] - Cerberus
+++ **Item #:** SCP-8252
------
+++ **Object Class:** Keter
------
+++ **Special Containment Procedures:**
The building of a former autocephalous parish located near ██████, Greece, has been seized and secured by the SCP Foundation. The entire facility has been designated as SCP-8252 Peripheral Zone. The building currently functions as a cover facility and surface monitoring station for the catacombs containing the SCP-8252 instance.
The area up to 900 meters below ground level has been secured using Class A3 seismic barriers and an active acoustic dampening field system, utilizing a network of microphones and loudspeakers emitting counterphase signals to suppress SCP-8252's acoustic emissions within and around the containment zone.
SCP-8252's sound emissions must not exceed an intensity of 100 dB SPL at ground level. If emissions surpass 95 dB, Protocol "Agios" is initiated, involving activation of the electromagnetic bell system installed in the former parish bell tower.
Access to underground structures requires authorization from at least two (2) personnel with Level 4 clearance and the presence of at least one Chi-12 Mobile Task Force (MTF) unit equipped with Class IV antivibration equipment.
All cases of local acoustic anomalies must be immediately reported to Site ██ Directorate. If necessary, disinformation measures must be implemented among the civilian population.

+++ **Description:**
SCP-8252 is an entity resembling a gray wolf (Canis lupus) with traits of a Belgian Malinois shepherd. SCP-8252 is estimated to be 21.3 meters tall at the withers. Its mass has not been precisely determined due to the high risk of direct proximity.
SCP-8252 possesses three independently functioning heads mounted on a shared shoulder girdle. Each head reacts autonomously to environmental stimuli, exhibits separate neural activity, and is capable of independent operation in combat and observation. SCP-8252’s eyeballs lack pupils and sclerae; they are entirely filled with a dense, uniform mass colored dark amber or glowing red, depending on the object's activity level.
A substance classified as SCP-8252-1 periodically emerges from SCP-8252’s mouths. Emission occurs primarily in moments of heightened arousal, such as detecting a target, confronting a threat, or moments before an attack.
Located centrally in SCP-8252’s thoracic cavity is a heart-like structure emitting constant thermal radiation (>1200 K) and periodic electromagnetic pulses in the 12–18 MHz range. The entity’s skin is uniformly black, exhibiting high light absorption properties (>98% of the visible spectrum). Its tissues display extreme mechanical resistance and full regeneration of damage within no more than 90 seconds.
SCP-8252’s tail resembles a spinal extension but exceeds 10 meters in length and ends in a hardened, bony projection with a structure akin to keratinized marrow. Instances have been recorded of the tail being used to pierce ballistic Class IV materials or to decapitate human targets in a single motion. SCP-8252-1 is a dark red, viscous fluid with strong cytotoxic and proteolytic properties. The substance causes rapid breakdown of cellular structures, leading to necrosis and autolysis of tissue within 30 to 90 seconds.

SCP-8252-1 is a dark red, viscous fluid with strong cytotoxic and proteolytic properties. The substance causes rapid breakdown of cellular structures, leading to necrosis and autolysis of tissue within 30 to 90 seconds. Under test conditions, SCP-8252-1 has exhibited toxicity levels between 700 and 900 times greater than that of the inland taipan (Oxyuranus microlepidotus).
Upon contact with inorganic materials (Kevlar, ballistic ceramics, titanium alloys), the substance causes slow but progressive degradation of molecular structure, resembling the action of strong organic acids, although it does not show typical chemical reaction patterns. SCP-8252-1 does not lose activity after being expelled from the organism, remaining toxic and chemically stable regardless of environmental conditions.
The secretion should not be considered a passive metabolic byproduct — it is suspected to serve an active function in the hunting and incapacitation process, constituting one of SCP-8252’s primary offensive mechanisms.
When left without direct stimuli, SCP-8252 remains dormant, exhibiting minimal motor activity. The entity typically assumes a lying or sitting posture, keeping all heads oriented in different directions. In this state, it does not display aggression or respond to the presence of monitoring devices, observation personnel, or drone systems located beyond a radius of ██ meters.
SCP-8252 does not attempt interaction with its environment, does not respond to verbal or visual communication attempts, and does not exhibit behavior characteristic of social organisms. In isolation conditions, the entity maintains full homeostasis and shows no signs of deteriorating physical or mental condition.
In the presence of living organisms of biological Class A or B within its line of sight, SCP-8252 enters a heightened activity state characterized by muscular tension, raised tail, and all heads focusing on the target. If the presence is judged as a breach of the safety perimeter (threshold distance: 40–60 m, depending on arousal level), a predatory phase is triggered.
During this phase, SCP-8252 exhibits behavior classified as tactical: avoiding open spaces, using terrain for cover, tracking the target stealthily, and misleading it with feigned retreats. Movement speed during the attack phase exceeds ███ km/h. In the event of physical contact, the target is immediately neutralized using impact force, chemical agents, or direct mechanical damage.
After the offensive interaction concludes, the entity returns to a dormant state within no more than 120 seconds. SCP-8252 does not engage in consumption of victims, securing of territory, or movement beyond its defined activity zone (currently: ██ km²). In the absence of stimuli, SCP-8252 may remain entirely inactive.

+++ **Recovery Notes:**
SCP-8252 was discovered following a series of reports from nearby village residents who spoke of a “beast’s roar” — inhuman, powerful howls emanating from the vicinity of the ██████ parish. Foundation agents arrived after preliminary seismic and acoustic activity analysis confirmed the existence of a deep catacomb network extending up to 900 meters beneath the surface.
In the underground structures, a creature physically resembling the mythological Cerberus was discovered. According to preserved church chronicles, the entity was imprisoned there by early Christian Orthodox clergy to prevent its influence on the development of the Christian faith.
For centuries, SCP-8252’s roars were audible on the surface, which necessitated the ritual use of Orthodox church bells as a natural method of sound suppression.

+++ **Addendum SCP-8252-01:**
During the incident of ██/██/████, SCP-8252 demonstrated for the first time the ability to emit a high-energy stream of fire from its central thoracic organ. This stream was recorded as a thermal arc with an estimated temperature exceeding 2400 K, causing immediate melting of Class A3 seismic structures. A revision of containment procedures is currently underway.
