SCPA-EN-00197 Report

Item #: SCPA-EN-00197

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures:
SCPA-EN-00197 is to be contained in a hermetically sealed chamber filled with experimental gas mixture 4F-77 (85% argon, 13% oxygen, and 2% carbon dioxide) to prevent further growth. The chamber and its contents are to be kept under constant surveillance from outlying security checkpoints via infrared and gas sensors. In the event that SCPA-EN-00197-1 is reported as unstable, the sealed chamber will be rapidly exposed to a controlled burst of concentrated light in an attempt to destroy SCPA-EN-00197-1.

Description:
SCPA-EN-00197 is an anomalous spherical entity approximately 5 cm in diameter, resembling a glass orb containing a thick fluid of unknown origin. SCPA-EN-00197-1, also known as the "Parasite," is a small, parasite-like organism within the fluid, approximately 7 mm in length, with six segmented legs and an elongated head. SCPA-EN-00197-1 displays the capability of surviving outside of SCPA-EN-00197 if not supplied with the necessary nutrients.

Upon contact with living organisms such as humans, SCPA-EN-00197-1 attaches itself to a host's flesh and begins to form a symbiotic bond. SCPA-EN-00197-1 will begin to gradually consume the host's flesh to produce a nutrient-rich environment for SCPA-EN-00197-1 to grow and multiply. The host will begin to experience symptoms such as muscle atrophy, organ failure, and eventual death.

SCPA-EN-00197-1 has demonstrated the capacity to manipulate the host's consciousness, allowing the host to carry out the parasite's will. SCPA-EN-00197-1 has used this to coerce the host into carrying it to others, and if successful, infecting them and spreading the anomaly. The behavior of the host and SCPA-EN-00197-1's influence on them appears to be unpredictable and may depend on the number and location of SCPA-EN-00197-1 inside the host's body.

Additional Information:
Attempts to remove SCPA-EN-00197-1 from a host have been unsuccessful as they result in severe damage or destruction to vital organs, making the host irreparably damaged. Heat, electromagnetic radiation, and acidic agents have shown some effectiveness in removing SCPA-EN-00197-1 from the host, but with high collateral damage.

Notice:
The nature of SCPA-EN-00197-1 requires extreme caution when troubleshooting any malfunction in nearby systems to prevent potential contact. Disinfect if SCPA-EN-00197-1 has infected an individual.
