SCPA-EN-00271 Report

Item #: SCPA-EN-00271

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures:
SCPA-EN-00271 is to be kept in a standard Safe-Class containment locker. Access to SCPA-EN-00271 is to be restricted to Level 2 personnel, and any interaction with the object shall require the approval of at least one Level 3 personnel.

Description:
SCPA-EN-00271 is a small, marble-sized ball that appears to be made entirely of white marble. SCPA-EN-00271's unique property is its ability to mimic the appearance of any solid object it comes into contact with. When SCPA-EN-00271 touches another object, its surface will change its texture, color, shape, and any other physical characteristic present on the object that it contacts with.

The mimicking effect appears to be instantaneous and precise, and SCPA-EN-00271 has shown the ability to mimic a wide range of objects, from living beings to inanimate objects of various sizes and complexity. However, SCPA-EN-00271 cannot mimic the properties of living beings, such as blood flow, brain activity, or DNA, and its effects are only physical in nature.

The object is not sentient and does not display any anomalous behavior when not in contact with other objects.

Additional Information:
SCPA-EN-00271 has not shown any sign of degradation or wear since recovery, and no known method can revert SCPA-EN-00271 to its original state.

Initial testing has shown that SCPA-EN-00271's mimicking effect is not hindered by electric, magnetic, or other known types of field interference.

Although SCPA-EN-00271 is classified as Safe, its ability to mimic every object begs the question of what potential risk it could pose in the wrong hands or environments. Even though SCPA-EN-00271 does not present any physical danger, it raises some ethical and security concerns.

Notice:
Any testing or use of SCPA-EN-00271 shall be conducted in a controlled and monitored environment. Personnel must report any significant resemblance between SCPA-EN-00271 and other objects that could lead to confusion or accidental misuse.
