SCPA-EN-00353 Report

Item #: SCPA-EN-00353

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures:
SCPA-EN-00353 is to be kept in a standard containment locker at Site-19. Due to its harmless properties, there are no special procedures required for its containment. However, Site-19 personnel are required to handle SCPA-EN-00353 with rubber gloves and to immediately wash their hands after handling.

Description:
SCPA-EN-00353, also known as the "Mimicking Mushroom," is a species of fungus with the ability to mimic the appearance and texture of any nearby object. When SCPA-EN-00353 comes into contact with an object, it will absorb nutrients from the object and begin to grow a mycelium network that mimics the object's appearance and texture. The process can take anywhere from a few hours to several days to complete.

The mimicked mycelium network is indistinguishable from the original object to the naked eye and most physical tests. However, microscopic examinations can reveal slight differences between the original material and the mimicked material.

SCPA-EN-00353 is highly adaptable and can mimic a wide variety of objects, such as metal, plastic, cloth, and even animal tissue. SCPA-EN-00353 can alter its mycelium network to mimic moving objects but this process is slow and inefficient.

Additional Information:
The spores of SCPA-EN-00353 are highly infectious and can easily spread via air currents or contact with other objects. However, the spores have no harmful effects on living organisms and can only infect nonorganic materials.

SCPA-EN-00353 was discovered in ██████, Russia, where it was being used by a group of local artists to create lifelike sculptures.
