**SCP-9483 — “The Little King”**
**Object Class: Euclid**
**Special Containment Procedures**
SCP-9483 is to be contained in a modified humanoid containment chamber at Site-77. All paper-based materials are prohibited within a 20-meter radius of SCP-9483’s containment area unless approved by assigned research personnel.
Any approved paper objects introduced into SCP-9483’s chamber must be recorded before and after exposure. Personnel are not permitted to remove, alter, or destroy any origami constructs created by SCP-9483 without authorization.
Direct contact with SCP-9483 is limited to a maximum duration of three minutes. Personnel exposed to SCP-9483 for longer periods must undergo psychological evaluation and physical examination for possible anomalous changes.
Attempts to remove SCP-9483’s crown are strictly prohibited.
Previous attempts resulted in the subject reporting that the crown was not attached to SCP-9483’s head, but was instead “part of what the head is.”
Personnel assigned to SCP-9483 are required to wear protective clothing that does not contain loose paper, fabric scraps, or untreated cellulose materials.
**Description**
SCP-9483 is a humanoid entity resembling a child approximately 1.1 meters in height. The entity possesses the appearance of a young human child, although its age cannot be accurately determined.
The most notable feature of SCP-9483 is a small crown constructed from yellow construction paper. The crown is permanently attached to the entity. Attempts to remove, cut, burn, or otherwise separate the crown from SCP-9483 have failed.
When questioned regarding the crown, SCP-9483 refers to it as “unfinished.”
SCP-9483 demonstrates a strong anomalous connection to paper materials. When exposed to paper, SCP-9483 can cause the material to fold itself into complex shapes resembling living organisms.
These origami constructs display behaviors similar to animals, including movement, communication through gestures, and defensive responses toward perceived threats to SCP-9483.
Known forms include:
Birds
Wolves
Spiders
Serpentine creatures
Unidentified abstract forms
Origami constructs created by SCP-9483 are capable of causing physical injury. Documented effects include lacerations, interference with machinery, obstruction of equipment, and coordinated attacks against personnel.
**Temporal Effects**
SCP-9483 produces a localized temporal anomaly extending approximately 6 meters from its location.
Within this area, the passage of time is slowed relative to external observers.
The effect appears to increase with prolonged exposure. Personnel inside SCP-9483’s temporal field may experience only minutes passing from their own perspective while significantly longer periods pass outside the affected area.
SCP-9483 itself does not appear affected by this distortion.
When asked about the passage of time, SCP-9483 stated:
“I was only waiting for a little while.”
**Psychological Effects**
Individuals exposed to SCP-9483 for extended periods report increasing compulsions related to crafting and paper manipulation.
Symptoms include:
Compulsive attempts to fold paper objects
Auditory hallucinations involving a voice requesting improvement of the crown
Difficulty recognizing paper objects as ordinary objects
A strong desire to “serve the little king”
Subjects exposed for longer than ten minutes begin attempting to fold non-paper materials, including clothing, hair, and skin.
This behavior results in severe injury and is usually fatal without immediate intervention.
**Discovery Log**
SCP-9483 was discovered following multiple reports of unusual attacks near an abandoned elementary school in North Carolina.
Local witnesses reported seeing “paper animals” moving through nearby woods and attacking hikers.
Foundation agents investigating the reports discovered SCP-9483 seated in a school hallway surrounded by hundreds of origami creatures.
The creatures remained completely motionless until personnel approached SCP-9483.
At that point, all constructs became active and positioned themselves between SCP-9483 and the approaching agents.
The crown was already present when SCP-9483 was recovered.
No evidence has been found indicating who created the crown.
**Addendum 9483-A: Initial Interview**
Interviewer: Dr. Halden
Subject: SCP-9483
Dr. Halden: Who made your crown?
SCP-9483: You did.
Dr. Halden: I did?
SCP-9483: You just haven’t finished yet.
Dr. Halden: When did I make it?
SCP-9483: When we were smaller.
Dr. Halden: Who is “we”?
SCP-9483: You remember.
Dr. Halden: I don't.
SCP-9483: I know.
[Interview terminated.]
**Addendum 9483-B: Research Note**
Further investigation into Dr. Halden’s childhood records revealed several inconsistencies involving a school art project involving handmade paper crowns.
The records recovered were incomplete.
Several student names were missing.
One photograph recovered from the same period showed a group of children standing together. A portion of the photograph containing one individual had been folded repeatedly into the shape of a small crown.
Attempts to unfold the photograph caused the image to permanently distort.
The identity of the missing child remains under investigation.
**Addendum 9483-C: Current Research Hypothesis**
SCP-9483 does not appear to be attempting escape.
The entity repeatedly requests that personnel “finish the crown.”
The purpose of completing the crown is unknown.
Whether SCP-9483 desires recognition, transformation, or the fulfillment of an event interrupted decades ago remains unclear.
Dr. Halden has refused to discuss the possibility that SCP-9483 may have been known to him before Foundation recovery.
His only recorded statement regarding SCP-9483’s identity was:
“I think we forgot someone.”
Addendum 9483-D: Dr. Halden’s Personal Research Notes
Following SCP-9483’s repeated claims regarding Dr. Halden’s involvement in the creation of its crown, permission was granted to review Dr. Halden’s personal research records.
The following notes were recovered from Dr. Halden’s private journal.
I do not remember making the crown.
I remember the room.
I remember the other children.
I remember the paper.
I do not remember █████████.
Further investigation into these statements is ongoing.
**Final Research Note**
SCP-9483 has never referred to itself as a monster.
It refers to itself as a king.
It does not demand obedience.
It does not threaten punishment.
It simply waits.
And every time someone enters the containment chamber, SCP-9483 asks the same question:
“Did you bring the rest of my crown?”

**SCP-9483 — "The Little King"**
**Discovery Log**
SCP-9483 was discovered following multiple reports of unusual attacks near the abandoned **Lake Lure County School No. 3** in Rutherford County, North Carolina.
Local witnesses reported seeing "paper animals" emerging from the surrounding woods and attacking hikers who approached the abandoned structure.
Foundation agents investigating the reports entered the school and traced the anomalous activity to **Room A7**, a former third-grade classroom. Although the remainder of the building displayed extensive fire damage consistent with the structure's documented destruction in 1986, Room A7 exhibited several unexplained inconsistencies. Portions of the classroom showed little to no evidence of heat exposure despite the surrounding damage.
SCP-9483 was discovered seated at a student desk near the rear of the classroom, surrounded by hundreds of origami constructs.
The constructs remained completely motionless until personnel approached SCP-9483. At that point, every construct became active simultaneously and positioned itself between SCP-9483 and Foundation personnel.
When first addressed, SCP-9483 displayed no signs of hostility.
Its first recorded statement was:
"Did you bring the rest of my crown?"
The crown was already attached to SCP-9483 upon recovery.
No evidence has been recovered indicating how the anomaly originated.
**Addendum 9483-A: Initial Interview**
**Interviewer: Dr. Jonathan Halden**
**Subject: SCP-9483**
Dr. Halden: Who made your crown?
SCP-9483: You did.
Dr. Halden: I did?
SCP-9483: You just haven't finished yet.
Dr. Halden: When did I make it?
SCP-9483: When we were smaller.
Dr. Halden: Who is "we?"
SCP-9483: You remember.
Dr. Halden: I don't.
SCP-9483: I know.

**Addendum 9483-B: Research Note**
Following SCP-9483's repeated references to Dr. Jonathan Halden, Foundation investigators reviewed archived records recovered from Lake Lure County School No. 3.
Recovered documents indicate that Dr. Halden was enrolled in **Room A7** during the 1986 school year. Several damaged class records reference a classroom art activity involving the construction of paper crowns. Most surviving records are incomplete due to extensive fire damage.
One partially recovered class photograph depicts four children gathered around a desk containing construction paper and folded origami figures.
Three of the children have been identified as Jonathan Halden, Emily Carter, and Noah Bennett.
The fourth child's face has been permanently distorted by repeated folds in the photograph resembling a paper crown.
Attempts to restore or digitally reconstruct the damaged portion of the photograph have been unsuccessful.

**Addendum 9483-C: Current Research Hypothesis**
SCP-9483 does not appear to be attempting escape.
Instead, the entity consistently behaves as though it is waiting for the return of several unidentified classmates to complete the construction of its crown.
When questioned regarding the passage of time, SCP-9483 repeatedly insists that it has "only been waiting a little while," despite evidence indicating approximately forty years have elapsed since the Lake Lure County School No. 3 incident.
The purpose of completing the crown remains unknown.
Current theories suggest that the crown may represent an unfinished anomalous process, an interrupted childhood event, or a phenomenon directly linked to SCP-9483's localized temporal distortion.
Dr. Halden has declined to comment further regarding his apparent connection to SCP-9483.
His only recorded statement on the matter remains:
"I think we forgot someone."

**Addendum 9483-D: Dr. Halden's Personal Research Notes**
Following SCP-9483's repeated claims regarding Dr. Halden's involvement in the creation of its crown, authorization was granted to review Dr. Halden's personal research journal.
The following excerpt has been reproduced verbatim.
I remember the classroom.
I remember the desks.
I remember construction paper.
I remember folding something.
I remember Emily laughing.
I remember Noah making little paper animals.
I do not remember █████████.
I don't know why I can't remember.
Every time it asks if I brought the rest of the crown, I feel like I promised I would.
Further investigation into these statements is ongoing.
