SCPA-EN-00239 Report

Item #: SCPA-EN-00239

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures:
SCPA-EN-00239 is currently contained in a standard anomalous object containment locker at Site-17. Access to SCPA-EN-00239 is restricted to personnel with Level 3 clearance or higher and should only be accessed for research purposes under the supervision of at least two armed guards.

SCPA-EN-00239 has been outfitted with radio signal blocking equipment to prevent communication from SCPA-EN-00239. This equipment must be checked regularly and replaced as needed.

Any personnel who come into contact with SCPA-EN-00239 must undergo a full psychological evaluation after encountering SCPA-EN-00239. Any personnel showing signs of Stockholm Syndrome or other psychological effects are to be quarantined and evaluated by staff members trained in SCPA-EN-00239 exposure.

Description:
SCPA-EN-00239 resembles a collection of toy clockwork bugs that are able to self-organize into an organized swarm. SCPA-EN-00239 exhibits several anomalous abilities including the ability to manipulate pocket watches and other mechanical devices remotely, and to communicate with each other in a way that is still not fully understood.

When SCPA-EN-00239 is separated from the swarm, it begins to emit a high-pitched frequency that has been known to cause hallucinations, instability, and anxiety in nearby personnel.

If SCPA-EN-00239 is not contained properly, the swarm is capable of escaping and infiltrating nearby technology, taking control of it and literally consuming it for resources. SCPA-EN-00239 has been shown to be capable of infiltrating and taking control of most electronics, from small handheld devices to entire server rooms.

Additional Information:
SCPA-EN-00239 was discovered by Foundation agents during a routine operation to investigate reports of malfunctioning technology in a small rural town. Upon arriving they found a local school in the process of being consumed by SCPA-EN-00239. Agents reported that the swarm was very aggressive and appeared to be attacking anything in its path. Eventually, the agents were able to lure SCPA-EN-00239 into a trap and contained it without further incident.

Since its containment, SCPA-EN-00239 has been used to carry out tests related to its properties and abilities. Researchers have noted that the SCPA-EN-00239 appears to be evolving over time and is showing an increasing level of intelligence each time it is tested.

Classification level: Top Secret

Notice:
Under no circumstances should any personnel attempt to communicate directly with SCPA-EN-00239. Personnel should also avoid handling SCPA-EN-00239 directly as much as possible. In the event of a containment breach, all nearby electronic devices must be immediately shut down and quarantined until cleared by Foundation IT specialists.
