Seeking Greenlights: Yes
Page Type: SCP Article
Genre (Optional): Tactical Horror
Elevator Pitch:
A sentient black liquid that annihilates and absorbs anything behaving outside a calibrated predictable pattern —labeling them “order breakers". Once statistical abnormality is detected, evasion becomes nearly impossible.
Central Narrative:
SCP-XXXX is a sentient black liquid that emits two roaming beams of light from shifting surface nodes to visually scan for irregular movement, while also sensing vibrations to detect sound-based disturbances. Its existence was first noted after it inexplicably prevented a volcanic eruption—halting tectonic shifts. The Foundation now keeps it in a perfectly silent, lightless, entropy-neutral chamber.
Originating from the Earth’s core, SCP-XXXX appears to function as a natural stabilizer force, counterbalancing sudden geophysical changes. Despite its utility, any direct contact attempts trigger aggressive responses. Personnel who appeared to be near report overwhelming existential dread and a “fear of being alive,” suggesting the entity possesses a profound understanding of natural—and perhaps metaphysical—phenomena that cannot be comprehended.
When activated via the “Entropy Curve Boot” protocol (an 8-hour gradual introduction of sound, movement, and thermal variation), it recalibrates to tolerate human-scale chaos. Deployed into breach or disaster zones, it is supposed to autonomously eradicate anything that deviates from its newly established baseline—be it an erratic anomaly or an unforeseen geological spike.
-“All Quiet in Facility” Incident: A containment loop failure yields 11 seconds of silence, triggering mass deletions. Entity annihilated several structures and people.
Hook / Attention-Grabber:
Designated as the Foundation’s final line of defense against containment collapse—because order itself must be enforced.

Key events include:
- A near catastrophic “All Quiet in Facility” incident when containment loop failed
- A chilling deployment where intelligent entities survive by mimicking stillness
- A facility-wide debate on whether this SCP is a necessary weapon or a moral hazard
Hook / Attention-Grabber:
It was appointed as last resort in case of massive cataclysm

**Item #:** SCP-XXXX
**Object Class:** Euclid
**Special Containment Procedures**: SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a 5m x 5m x 5m high-energy light chamber to prevent prolonged exposure to darkness, which significantly increases its mobility and activity levels. The chamber walls are made of high-density transparent materials, allowing observation while remaining opaque to SCP-XXXX’s perception.
Lighting must be based on thermic processes to prevent SCP-XXXX from absorbing electrical energy. A redundant chemical luminescence system is required for emergency situations, ensuring no period of total darkness occurs. No electronic devices or power sources may be placed within 5 meters of the containment unit, as SCP-XXXX passively absorbs electromagnetic radiation and electrical charge upon direct contact. Personnel entering SCP-XXXX’s chamber must wear non-conductive protective suits to prevent unintended energy depletion.
While SCP-XXXX does not show active aversion to light, it avoids positioning itself directly under light sources, preferring dimly lit areas. Containment procedures should ensure even distribution of illumination to minimize shadowed regions within the chamber.
**Description**: SCP-XXXX is a conscious entity composed of a black, liquid-like substance that absorbs all light except for its white, reflective eye regions. This viscous substance exhibits anomalous physical properties, remaining inert to all physical stimuli. Direct contact with SCP-XXXX induces immediate fatigue and drowsiness in human subjects, likely due to its ability to drain bioelectric energy. If separated from the main body, the substance autonomously moves to rejoin SCP-XXXX.
The "eye regions" can freely move across its surface, merge, or divide, though the total surface area remains unchanged. SCP-XXXX typically maintains two circular eye-like structures that move together, mimicking human vision. The entity is capable of changing its shape at will, though complex forms, such as humanoid figures, appear difficult for it to maintain.
SCP-XXXX is generally non-aggressive and has demonstrated compliance when provided with clear instructions. It appears to understand human gestures on a basic level and has been observed learning sign language to communicate with personnel. However, due to its unique perceptual abilities, standard visual cognition tests have proven ineffective.
SCP-XXXX does not perceive colors but can determine exact distances to objects within its environment. SCP-XXXX perceives its surroundings through density-based detection rather than conventional visual processing. Gaseous substances remain visible, while denser transparent materials such as glass are perceived as opaque.
**Discovery:** SCP-XXXX was discovered in an abandoned mining site in northern Siberia, where it had remained for an estimated █ years. Local folklore references a 'shadow spirit' that guided lost travelers but drained their life force. Foundation personnel detected SCP-XXXX due to anomalous energy fluctuations in the region.
**Addendum-A:** Discussions are ongoing regarding the potential deployment of SCP-XXXX with Mobile Task Forces during containment breaches, given its unique properties.
[[collapsible show="Addendum-B - Notes on cognitive characteristics" hide="Hide"]]
* SCP-XXXX exhibits increased activity levels in dark environments.
* SCP-XXXX is capable of identifying exact distances with high precision.
* SCP-XXXX does not distinguish colors, making traditional visual-based tests ineffective.
* SCP-XXXX has demonstrated resistance to all form of memetic influence, making it a potential research subject for cognitohazard resistance.
* SCP-XXXX does not exhibit any biological stress responses. However, after sustaining kinetic damage, it pauses for extended periods while fixating its eye regions on the source of impact.
* SCP-XXXX may exhibit signs of curiosity; however, assisting its actions is not recommended, as this could encourage cognitive development and increase its autonomy.

[[collapsible show="Addendum-C - Reaction tests" hide="Hide"]]
**Objective:** To analyze SCP-XXXX's response to various physical, chemical, and environmental stimuli.
[[div class="blockquote"]]
**Test-Q001:** Reaction with open flame (1000°C)
**Procedure:** A controlled propane flame was introduced to a detached portion of SCP-XXXX.
**Reaction:** Sample did not combust or show signs of thermal degradation. The flame was extinguished immediately after the direct contact.
**Notes:** The substance appears to be heat-resistant and inflammable. It is proposed that there is no high threshold of heat resistance.

[[div class="blockquote"]]
**Test-Q002:** Immersion in Sulfuric Acid (H₂SO₄, 98%).
**Procedure:** The sample of SCP-XXXX was submerged in concentrated sulfuric acid for 60 seconds.
**Reaction:** No visible reaction occurred. SCP-XXXX maintained its structure and rejoined the main mass after removal.
**Notes:** The sample shows the signs that it consists from fundamentally different form of matter.
[[/div]]
[[div class="blockquote"]]
**Test-Q003:** Contact with Organic Material (Wood Sample)
**Procedure:** A dry oak wood sample was placed in direct contact with SCP-XXXX.
**Reaction:** SCP-XXXX did not absorb or degrade the material. However, microbial life on the wood surface was eradicated, and living cells within the sample entered a hibernation-like state.
**Notes:** While SCP-XXXX does not exhibit corrosive properties, it appears to affect biological systems at a microscopic level. No cognitive reaction was recorded.
[[/div]]
[[div class="blockquote"]]
**Test-Q004:** Exposure to Electrical Current
**Procedure:** A high-voltage (10,000V) electrode was applied to SCP-XXXX's surface.
**Reaction:** SCP-XXXX absorbed the electrical charge instantly, with no signs of resistance or damage.
**Notes:** SCP-XXXX is an effective energy sink. No cognitive reaction was recorded.
