SCP Foundation

Records and reports: Every contact, experiment, or incident must be recorded in detail.

Example of containment of a typical SCP

SCP-173 (one of the most famous):

He must always be under visual supervision; he cannot be alone.

Room with surveillance camera, armored doors, and a three-person protocol for interacting (if one blinks, others must watch).

Very fast movement if not observed.

Objective: to keep him safe, prevent leaks and fatal accidents.

Containment protocols

Each SCP has a documented “Special Containment Procedure” (SCP):

1. Physical security: Reinforced, armored, and secure chambers. Example: Mobile SCPs may have rooms with automatic doors and motion sensors.

2. Constant monitoring: Cameras, sensors, and 24/7 security personnel.

3. Specific Rules: Some SCPs require remote handling, complete isolation, controlled environmental conditions, or minimal interaction.

4. Emergency protocols: Containment breaches, attacks, or SCP leaks must be handled by special teams (e.g., MTF – Mobile Task Force).

Risk classification:

Safe: Relatively easy to contain, low risk.

Euclid: Unpredictable; requires vigilance and special precautions.

Keter: Extremely dangerous and difficult to contain; very strict protocols and high resources.

Thaumiel: SCPs that help contain other SCPs.

Facilities

Large, fortified buildings: The Foundation operates underground laboratories, research centers, and secret containment sites, sometimes in remote or camouflaged locations.

Functional and secure style: Gray or white walls, fluorescent lighting, long corridors, armored doors, reinforced containment chambers.

Advanced technology: 24/7 monitoring cameras, biometric security systems, environmental sensors, containment robots, and, in some cases, special weapons or drones to neutralize anomalies.

Specialized areas:

Research laboratories.

High-risk containment chambers.

Quarantine areas.

Observation and control rooms.

Warehouses and weapons areas. Scientists

Clothing: White lab coats, safety goggles; sometimes with Foundation insignia (SCP logo).

Functions: They document anomalies, conduct controlled experiments, create containment protocols, and study SCP properties.

Access level: Depends on your rank; can range from junior researchers to high-level research personnel authorized to interact with extremely dangerous SCPs.

Military/security personnel

Clothing: Black or gray tactical uniforms, bulletproof vests, helmets, and high-caliber weapons.

Functions: Internal security, transport of SCPs, support in containment and neutralization of breaches.

Class D (Prisoners / Test Subjects)

Clothing: Orange jumpsuit (or uniform indicating they are Class D).

Functions: They serve as test subjects for experiments with SCPs.

Risk: High mortality; its use is ethically questionable, but the Foundation justifies it as necessary to study dangerous anomalies.
