Description:
SCPA-EN-00178, also known as the "Memory Doppelganger," is a humanoid entity that closely resembles a human in every way, except that it has jet black hair and yellow eyes. When SCPA-EN-00178 comes into contact with an individual, it can make an exact copy of their memories up to a period of one (1) month prior to the interaction. SCPA-EN-00178 can then utilize these memories to manipulate, deceive or harm said individual. It is unknown whether SCPA-EN-00178 has any limits to the amount of memories it can hold or how long it can hold onto them.

SCPA-EN-00178 has shown the ability to create visual and auditory hallucinations, as well as the ability to imitate the voices of known individuals within the victim’s personal circle. SCPA-EN-00178's goal is to ascertain as much information about the victim and their environment as possible, using deceit and manipulation to do so. It is not yet known if SCPA-EN-00178 has an ultimate objective beyond this.

Additional Information:
SCPA-EN-00178 was originally recovered from a high-security facility after a severe security breach. Multiple personnel were found in a confused and disoriented state, with no knowledge of the cause. Upon reviewing the CCTV footage, SCPA-EN-00178 was seen conversing with each of the effected personnel before the breach occurred. The Foundation was notified and SCPA-EN-00178 was successfully contained.

It is to be noted that there is a possibility that SCPA-EN-00178 has infiltrated the Foundation hierarchy and may be manipulating personnel to aid in its release. All personnel are reminded to be vigilant and report any strange behavior or suspicious activity immediately.
