SCP-049 - “The Plague Doctor”

Item Number: SCP-049
Object Class: Euclid

Overview
SCP-049 is a humanoid entity resembling a medieval plague doctor. It wears black robes and a white beaked mask, though researchers believe these features may actually be part of its biological body rather than clothing. Which is deeply unfair to anyone trying to sleep peacefully.
SCP-049 is intelligent, calm, and capable of fluent conversation in multiple languages. Despite its polite behavior, it is extremely dangerous.

Calm and articulate
Highly intelligent
