It is the cold habitual, and it is the cold of the montagne blue. The froy at its summit. Cozlight, in view a fraud, celebrate in a fashion

responsible you have to have the age legal for consuming the alcohol. If you you're searching an insurance for your salon of

coiffure, know that Desjardin Assurance assures the companies for years. You've you know what

that change? Well, imagine if Sylvie, your best life coofeuse, did that every day every year

so long I'm, the last I'm trying to get used a little but I'm not a

okay, we're not we're just a little five-an- no, no. Well,

Dejardin Assurance Enterprise, it's not yair that we assure, that's

reassure, demand a submission. That, it's really, you know, doing something very unusual. I've got to say it's in slight protest, but I think it's for the good of mankind. We're diving into SCP. What does SCP stand for, Isaiah? It stands for

secure, contain, and protect. The SCP Foundation, as many of you are probably aware, is a foundation that is concerned with understanding, securing, containing, and protecting the public from anomalous entities as they occur in the wild. So I love SCP stuff. I've talked about a lot on the channel. I'm a big fan. Uh, Hunter, however, is not. I got to say, I need to be one over. Okay. Uh, I, for one, I, I'd have no idea how you like online horror and stuff like that and you don't like. There were some. No wrong. I have, if you, if you've seen my channel law, I've done a couple of SEP stuff. It's just the redundancy of having to do the whole redacted thing. The format after a while to me, it just, it got a bit draining, but there's still like infinite

ikea i thought was a cool idea or uh cousin johnny that kind of stuff i like that i love that i love the ideas but sometimes just the formatting but i'm hoping that you've told me about cp 3 000 i think that if there was a way to get us into sCP i think this would be the one i yeah i like cps a lot just because i think there's so much fun i think it's cool to have like this like all your world buildings established going in like when you start an cp article you know like the framework that everything sets in. So it gives riders a lot of leeway to do really weird stuff, especially like when you're really into the SCPs.

You will have these, I guess, like a late stage stories where you have characters and doctors from other stories appearing over in this one and how they build off each other and react. It's like a non-cringe cinematic universe. Sure. I mean, the idea of making it a cohesive place for people to collaborate and like cross-palmate, I know this is the mean, but it is very lovecrafty in the way that those guys also were able to contribute to like the Cthulu mythos and like the Necronomicon mythos. You know what I mean?

It's the same idea. Exactly. And I think that's sick. And especially to have it be something where it's like some kind of agency that's documenting things and everyone who is creatively writing is I like in creative scenarios where people are put in a box in a way. And to have it be in a box where it's like, well, it needs to be in a document site. Like it needs to feel like it's a file in this agency. It isn't just creepy pasta, but it's creamy pasta in a new kind of structure. Yeah, there's like a, but there's like a framework around it.

The same way, I guess, no sleep is it needs to feel like an anonymous. It has to feel like, yeah, like how did someone get this to the board? Why did someone post this? And there's a lot of good ideas. I'm just saying that when I was going through, it was pulling teeth, but I won't say maybe with someone here, I'll find. I'm looking forward to it. Right. Yeah, there is a lot of SCPs that I'll grow, it's, I mean, it's like with creepy pastures.

I mean, like, how has every no sleep story we read been perfect, right? It's not, you know what? No, but I think it's, if you're reading it with a friend, totally different experience than trying to read it on your own and, you know, take it and have fun with it. Yeah, I agree. And also, like, I hear what you're saying with a lot of the SEP stuff. A lot of them will over rely on the redacted where I'll be like, oh, the thing is redacted, redacted, you do redacted, and then you get redacted.

And that does get annoying. But there are some people who use the form. for like good storytelling. Want to take a quick break from the episode to thank today's sponsor, ZocDoc.

Thank you all so much to Zoc doc for sponsoring the show. It really does mean the most. And we are back to the episode. So I was racking my head about what to basically try to reintroduce Hunter to SCP was for like a narrative piece. And one of my personal favorites is SCP 3,000.

So that's the one we're going to look at today. A lot of you guys are probably familiar with it. I'm certainly familiar with it. I think I, this is, it wasn't one of the first SCPs I read, but I remember being in high school. I think I wrote a class assignment based on this SCP. This is all like deep sea. like this is oceanic horror basically right SCP 3000 is yes right yeah yeah um

there's a lot of ocean SCPs uh 3,000's probably the most famous I can't think of one that's more prominent than it SCP 3,000 normally gets considered one of the big dogs like along with ones like SCP 49 SCP 106 stuff like that we have 49 was the well right 49 unless I've got it way off I think of SCP 049 jp it's like a japanese one oh oh yeah yeah yeah cp 49 is the plague doctor yeah okay

um i think that there was cp's 49 jp if i'm wrong like but it was interesting it's like you go into a well and you basically see like a faceless cat or something like that i can't remember yeah it was yeah all i know is i've only ever read the faceless cat one that was a japanese one um infinite ikea cousin johnny and the one and the flesh that hates i think that was one what do you think of the flesh that hates really liked it yeah i like wait those are the only one you, Brad? Well, and the one that broke me was, I'm at the center of everything. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That one I was like

A bunch of people like that. I'm not a big fan of that one. Oh, then you haven't, do you know 106, the old man, the femur breaker? I have, I was such a petty bitch about all of it that I was just like, I don't want to do this anymore. You don't know the femur breaker? No, no. I imagine there's, that's why, that's why I still think I'm open to the idea of diving at the CP stuff. I don't, there isn't really a

narrative around this one. No, no, just. Yeah, just save before. Well, I'm not giving anything away here. It is, SCP106 is a creature that looks like this. He's called the old man. And he's covered in like this black goo. And he phases through walls to get from one location to the other. That's fine. And the whole thing is he wants to cause pain. Like, he wants to make people like being as much torment as possible. So if he ever escapes containment, the way you bring him back is you have to put someone through extreme pain. So the foundation has something called the femur breaker,

which is a machine they put D class into inside a containment cell. And like a box with a stick holding it up, they shatter people's femurs in a machine so that he gets attracted back and then they catch him in there. That's how you catch him anytime he gets out. Yeah. Which I think it's important to know before we dive into this too, that there's going to be a lot of stuff of,

if you're not familiar with SCPs, which if you're clicked on this video, you probably are, but just for redundancy's sake, for audio listeners as well, SCPs have stuff like different classes, different threats for these monsters, right? You're going to hear stuff to like D-class people, like the way that they use subject matters

to go in and deal with these monsters, like D-Class, I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be like prisoners or like... People who can disappear in society won't notice, yeah. Yeah, so it's... There's all these different things that you'll see. So if we come across and we'll try to, explain but just know that it's just

it's an organization that classifies how serious a threat is and like the people who are involved are like the pawns that they used to kind of take over things also have a class as well do you know the object classes I just know if I saw them again I know

Keeter and that guys like almost every single one I was every single one I read was a heater class yeah so the the big three are safe Euclid and Keeter Keter Ketter either way Oh, cousin Johnny was a Euclid man. So safe. So a lot of people think object classes is danger level.

It's not. Object class is how hard it is to contain it. Right. Right. Which normally those two things go hand in hand. But sometimes there's something, like there's one SCP, I can't remember which one was, but it's just like a guy who follows you and doesn't do anything. But there's zero way to contain him.

So that's like a Ketter class, but he's not dangerous. It's like annoying, if anything. So safe is, the rule of thumb is, if you can put it in a box and nothing happens, it's safe. If you, it may be when you get it out, it blows up the world. But if you can put it in a box and nothing happens, it's safe. If you can put it in a box and you have to do regular maintenance, but there is a way to keep it in there. That's Euclid. And if you can put it in a box and it requires around the clock care, maybe that box will still break regardless of how hard you try.

That's cater. Yeah. So that makes sense because I know Euclid, Cousin Johnny was Euclid, which was, it has some ways of controlling it. There's like a procedure you have to follow. And then like the the Japanese one that I read, I can't remember the name, but it's basically the well. As long as you don't look in the

well, you're fine. Right. So that's the same. That would be safe. Yeah. And the Keter class is just like all hell's breaking loose. You have to constantly do something and even then it may only be temporary. That's a Keter. That's a Keter class because good luck containing it. I think today's class. The SCP itself is probably Ketter, but I think it's called a thomule, if I remember

right? Yeah, it's a thomule class. So thomule is one of the weird ones. Okay, so remember the whole thing about safe, it's all around like what you can do with the box, right? Safe is if you put in a box at them, it's keeter, like the box takes a lot. It's thomule is the

CEP itself is the box. It is an CEP that is used for other means, basically. Oh, interesting. Almost like they use, its power to do something else. Yes. Yeah. So that's Thamiel. And then Apollyon, which showed up in like one story that everyone used it because it was like cool or edgy. Apollion is there is no box. It is an entity that by its very definition, you're not. Like there's one, I think it was an 01 proposal, which that's a whole other can of worms. But there was one

that was like this god from another dimension that was going to destroy the world. And it was just like inevitable. It's just a matter of waiting for when the god decides to show. up, that's Apollyon, because you're not containing God from another dimension. It's kind of stupid to say, but you know, listening to all this stuff and listening and like just kind of talking about SEP, it feels like the people who

did Cabin in the Woods movie, it feels like that was, had to be a direct inspiration of like the organization there and having the big old God come and all these different devices that you play in. You know what I mean? So when I was a kid, I remember looking up, is there any SEP movies?

This was before like Stephen down and made there. everyone would just clip cabin in the woods and be like SCP film and as a kid I thought it was real I mean I was like in a way though it's so true I will say I guess since this is our first CEP I know we're kind of harcaning where this is kind of a long intro to get to the story but

in terms of internet spaces because usually we've done no sleep and we've done like one Twitter ARG usually they're in the space if I would say anywhere from 2011 to 2017 work at the peak year Where does SEP fall into that time frame of when it was popular? Because I do remember, even though I didn't, I wasn't a part of that culture. I do remember being online back then and having, seeing some imbalance of it because I knew it was pretty big at a point. I would say people are going to disagree with me.

But if I had to give it a peak, it would probably be. Because I think when I was in high school, like sophomore year was one, it was like killing it. So that was like 2014 era. Okay. 2014, 2015. So the Creep pasta and the SEP thing,

they were just kind of in tandem. They were right around the same time. I feel like creepy pasta was like a smidge later. I'm sorry, other way around. I feel like SEP was a smidge more recent. Well, it makes sense because I'm thinking that the success of creepy pasta

helped contribute it to SEP. Yes. Yeah, that's exactly what happened. You had your early creepy pastas and then it like really slender man was like the first one of the first big ones. It's a big thing. And then you had creepy pastas kick up for a while.

And then SEP was kind of like there'd typically be more, because we've read a bunch of creepy pastas. They're normally all over the place. CPs would tend to be a bit more like, I don't want to say high level. But there was more going on in a lot of the stories, the most creepy pastas. So I think as the audience got older,

we kind of gravitated towards that. So yeah, I think SEPs definitely came, like being built off of creepy pasta culture. From what I ever, I haven't read a lot, but one thing I've noticed, too, is everything seems to be a lot more logistical or they try to really make things like have some kind of sense or purpose, even if the power of the monster or like the threat of the monster

is nonsensical. There's some kind of just to fit that parameter of having like a government document on it versus a creepposs that can just be so I wrote this five minutes, you know, or whatever kind of thing. So and I think that it's important for this show to have more stuff outside of this. so I'm hoping that this SEP episode maybe gets people stoked and we can keep diving. Yeah, I would love to... I hope you don't hate it, pretty much. No, I mean, I, like I said, I'm open.

I hope it does well to where we could explore what, because I would love to read Cousin Johnny again. It's super fun. Cousin'Jon Johnny's a fun one. And like just weird and creepy and it's all right. So I say without further ado, let's start getting... Let's get into it. Let's start with SCP 3,000. So we'll do it, we'll do this like it's a volgun video.

So... SCP 3,000, object class, thomule, as explained before. It is classified, level five clearance needed, which just is to say that it's like a very big secret kept within the organization. Special containment procedures, because the way all of these documents start, the idea is this is an internal memo that's shared around the organization, right? So typically, if you're accessing the memo, the first thing you need to know is how to keep control it. Right, right.

So if someone's in an emergency looking at this, Here's what you do. Right. And then it will get into what it is, how it exists, stuff like that. So the area containing SCP 3,000, currently a region of the Bay of Bingle, roughly 300 kilometers in diameter, is to be routinely patrolled by foundation naval vessels. Under no circumstances are civilians allowed to attempt deep sea exploration or diving efforts in the quarantined area. Individuals believe to have contacted SCP 3,000 are to be contained, quarantined, and processed at some. site 151.

Individuals affected by the anomalous properties of SCP 3,000 are to be held in containment indefinitely. The Foundation submarine, SCPF, Aramida, is that of those pronounced? Aramita. Arameta, sure. It's to monitor the location of the foremost section of SCP 3,000, currently located within the Gong's fan, roughly point seven kilometers beneath the bay. The Aramita is tasked with carrying out the Atzac protocol.

and staffing regulations on board the vessel are subject to the guidelines of that protocol. For a full description of the ASAT-ZAC protocol, see addendum 3,000.2. I keep wanting to read it as Aztec. I keep thinking Aztec protocol. Yeah, it's at Zach. There is currently no known cure for exposure to SCP-3000. As such, affected individuals should be contained in quarantine for further evaluation. Individuals stationed aboard the SCPF Arimatta

are not permitted to leave the vessel except for the purposes of carrying out the necessary procedures of the Atzac protocol. Individuals who leave the vessel without proper authorization are to be considered lost. Under no circumstances should any individual interact with SCP 3,000 without authorization.

So that's the procedure of how? That's the procedure. That's what you do with it. So here's the thing. I love this idea of like everything that they said, I think it's fun. It's a weird kind of boat that's just kind of around. You can't, you know, don't be fucking with this thing without letting anybody know. Like, I've referenced this a lot, but like the terror.

It makes you think of like the submarine thing of like, don't be going in the water. Fucking with stuff or whatever. And if anyone does step out, they're considered lost. They're considered lost, which is such a haunting and cold thing. And I know, but then there's also these little trickles of shit where I'm like, this is where I'm like, what the fuck does that mean? and process at Site 151, it's these things where it's like, I know that it's just supposed to be like,

you're not even supposed to know because the organization is so big, but to me, I'm always just like, it just feels like so much jargon sometimes. I understand. And that's where sometimes I get a little thrown. Some stories, like I'm at the center of everything. It's like, it just so much.

It's like so much to where it's distracting. This is fine. I think this is sick. This is just to say, site 151, probably a location near Southeast Asia, that's all you need to know. It is an SEP site that's in the region to house people at.

I'm also excited because this is our first deep sea. This is our first deep sea story. I don't think we've covered any ocean. How the fuck is that possible, though? We haven't found like one deep sea creepy post. I mean, I know a ton of deep sea creepy post. I want more deep sea creepy post. That was actually, so this is some deep lore.

When I was in high school, because I wrote a bunch of short stories and stuff like that. The first short story I think I ever wrote, It was 12 pages was a story called Leviathan. That was about a deep sea monster. That's always been one of my favorite creepy things to work off because I've always been so scared

to the ocean. Oh, yeah. No, the ocean is fucking horrifying. I got really into Moby Dick for some reason when I was younger. I read Moby Dick and I think I read it in the seventh grade. And I loved it.

There was a movie in the 50s or 60s an adaptation of it with Gregory Peck. I was a really big Gregory Peck fan for some reason because I'm a 95-year-old. old man. But I just, I love the, the idea of old-timey fishermen and that kind of stuff. There's something so fucking haunting, too. The ocean is such a powerful, dark force. I've always had this, like, appreciation for, like, people who fall in love with it, you know? There's, there's such a, yeah, that really, there's like, there's such a interest to me about,

like, the sailor mindset of people who, like, uh, like, long for the. and stuff like that because it's so it's so terrifying to me it's so interesting that someone's so enamored it has to be in tandem with astronauts yes it that does space in the sea yeah yeah i the idea of me being in a large body of water and just having shit below me that i can't see that absolutely not yeah i cannot fuck with that at all also i just feel like i would drown i know how to swim i wouldn't say i'm an avid swimmer but i feel like i would be a sinker ladies and gentlemen i would sink. Yeah. I'm, I, no, not for me. Not my calling, thankfully. Also, here's another thing. I think I don't really fuck with fish. Well, it depends on the fish. I don't like giant fish,

like, like, even if I was just, even if I was just swimming in a river and my foot grazed a tiny rainbow trout. I wouldn't like that. I'm fine with that because I mean, I grew up in East Tennessee. We go river fishing and I mean, I feel, I'm just saying that I just don't. I don't care for it. Oh, you just don't want it to happen. Yeah, I see. Okay, I got you. All right, so after that containment procedures,

you've got the idea of how creepy it is. We can now get into the description. So, SCP 3,000 is a massive aquatic serpentine entity strongly resembling a giant moray ill. The full length of SCP 3,000's impossible to determine. But it's hypothesized to be between 600 and 900 kilometers. How, for an American, what is that? Around 700 miles.

It's so many. It's a giant hill of summer miles long. It's the distance from, like, here to Kansas City. Like, that's how, that is how long this thing is. Okay. The head of SCP 3,000 is measured roughly 2.5 meters in diameter. Got a little chode head. And sections of the body proper are as large as 10 meters in diameter.

So at its widest parts, it gets up to 30 feet wide. So it's a big long. It is incredibly slender, like its whole length. Yeah. But it just goes. on and on and on forever. In comparison to how long it is, but still being... I mean, 30 feet wide, it's big.

30 feet wide is fucking insane. But its head especially is only two and a half meters, which is like seven feet, eight feet in. It's kind of funny. It's big chode. Yeah, pretty much. But its body's like forever. If you had to theorize, actually throw up some art

of what people theorize his head to look like. Actually, there's a picture of the top of the article. Is that his head? Is that his head? yeah no i don't like that you don't like that i just i think we could do better sCP 3,000 is typically a sedentary creature only moving its head in response to certain stimuli or during the feeding the majority of its body is located in and around the gongy's fan and rarely moves it all cp 3,000 is carnivorous and despite its sedentary nature is capable of moving quickly to dispatch prey despite its size it is hypothesized that cp 3,000

does not require sustenance to maintain its biological functions. While SCP-3000 excretes a thin layer of a viscous dark-gray substance classified as Y909, Codendum 3,002 below, which we will. Through its skin, as it consumes prey, the end result of its digestive processes is currently unknown. It's kind of fun. It, like, secrease this weird, like, dark gray cum while it's eating shit. Mm-hmm. What could you possibly eat to satiate yourself?

Oh, we're going to find out. I'm so excited. Well, that's, I'm excited to figure out. But can you imagine being that big? You're just like, let me eat. Like, there's nothing on this. You have to eat Mount Everest. 700 miles.

That's a big boy. Yeah, what the current, the biggest, not counting the Great Barrier Reef, because those are different organisms. The largest living thing in the world is the moss. It's like one moss patch that is growing in, I think. bullshit to ever. I mean, yeah, but still it's a superstructure that is several square miles. Yeah, it pales in comparison to this

to how big this thing is. Yeah, yeah. This has to also be some kind of alien, right? Well, so they're actually going to talk about theories of what it could be. But yeah, we'll get to that part. What's fun about the CCP stuff is like it tries to work its way, good ones, try to work their way into like history and religious themes and stuff like that. So, um cp 3 000 is a class 8 cognito hazardous entity are you familiar with cognito hazards no so it's the idea that just knowing about it or knowing information about it's dangerous damn the eel the eel can the eel knows that i know about it that like if you know thing like information can be dangerous

sure hazard like there's one cp that if you say its name uh or if you even think think its name, it appears. So in all the reports of it, they never give its name. It's like the thing, right? Direct observation of SCP 3,000 may cause severe mental alterations in viewers. Individuals who directly observe SCP 3,000, as well as any individuals within a certain distance of 3,000, experience inexplicable head pain, paranoia, general fear, and panic, and memory loss or alteration. The following is a log from Site 151's historical records. by Dr. Eugene Gatz about initial discovery of 3,000 and the effects felt they're in. So now we move into the logs.

So, the unease was felt throughout the entire crew as we descended on that first night. Whether this was due to our uncertainty of what we would discover or something more sinister, I would not speculate. So we continued to descend, Williams began sweating profusely. When asked about it, he could not respond, stating that he thought he was missing something he could not deduce. as our descent continued he began to act more and more erratically

at one point addressing myself as Darlene and expressing uncertainty as to the task he was assigned to handle similar feelings were expressed by other members of the crew but Williams felt it most his memetic resistance was by far the lowest of all of us but he was a biologist not a memedicist so memetics is like

if SCP 3,000 is a cognito hazard the thing that is hurting you in that situation is the memetic nature of it, the knowledge, the presence of it. So everyone else on the team is like trained for this, but Williams is a biologist. He's not like... Yeah, his brain's getting fucked right. He's getting messed pretty hard, yeah.

When we finally came into contact with the entity, he began whimpering and had to be sedated. I remember him muttering the word no over and over again, as if in disbelief. He went silent after a while as we approached its head. when I looked back at him, something had gone from his eyes. He'd not even so much as blink as we made our final descent. At around 09-400, we first observed the head of the entity.

The unease was palpable now. Several other crew members complained of feeling hazy and of being uncertain what they were supposed to be doing. Captain Ritter, Ever the Man's Man, wrote it all off as nitrogen intoxication and force them to continue approaching the entity. It's kind of a classic Lovecraft trope there, too. I know I'm Lovecraft. I get it. But it's a thing of a person who is not abiding by the warning signs

and keeps descending more and more into madness kind of thing. You see that a lot with like at the mouth of madness. There's also, I forgot which, I remember which book it was too, but it's all about actually a submarine, the guy goes down. And he sees like an ancient civilization. Yeah, that one's, um, it's at something right at something's deep or not at the mountain madness but i can't remember yeah all i know is that at that one it's just a guy who is just completely fixated seeing

these kinds of things of people slowly i mean can you imagine actually going down into the absolute darkest part of the world the marley ocean you see a giant face which i want to say this to you i just want to speculate now just to see what people if people are thinking the same thing. Does it make it worse that he's so big? Or would it be more intimidating if it was small? I think, well, it depends on what level. Because if it's small, like smaller than

you, then yes, it's easier. But you're saying like length, right? I'm just saying not even, I'm just saying that does it become crazier where you're like, is it harder to find? This thing is so big to where it's, and if you don't know about it, so people, normal people who are doing fishing or, you know,

deep sea diving and whatever, blah, blah, blah, going around they don't know so they're not affected by it but if it was like let's just say it's like an entity that lives like let's say it's the moss okay in the ocean you go down there but it's just only this little bit of mileage on all of earth that you go down and you start to become more you know mentally hazy start freaking out more does that feel more intimidating than something that's 700 miles long it depends so sometimes yes there are a bunch of creatures like that, that it's a small thing, like something you have to watch out for individually. And that has its own fear with it.

But there's something about a creature that is like 700 miles. I mean, I'm wrong. It's, it's intimidating. It's like, it's hopeless, you know? Something that big that's been down there for who knows how long is almost like, it's like a new religion almost, the fact that it exists. It's like it reframes your structure of how the world works, how nature works and stuff like that.

When we were within 50 meters, the entity turned slowly to look at us. Even now, as I recall watching this thing coil around in the darkness, I can still hear Williams, barking like a mad dog in the rear of the vessel. Screaming and flailing, shouting about how he could see it in his head. Perkins and Harrison tried to restrain him, but he got free and smashed his face in against one of the portholes. He hit it so hard, cracked the inner layer of glass. The damage was bad enough that we had to surface.

We tried to give Williams medical attention, but he was too far gone at that point. He had pulted himself against the glass, in spite the trauma. He still spoke briefly as he lay dying. Nobody recorded it. We didn't think to at the time. I remember it well enough. He said, There's nothing.

Nothing. Nothing. By the time we had reached the surface several hours later, Williams was dead. At the time, I didn't think much about what he had said. Just the ravings of a man. gone mad by the depths, I figured. I didn't know any better. But even now, I can still see the eyes of the creature.

I see it hanging there in the darkness. Illuminated by a light I cannot source. And I feel the lingering dread that Williams must have felt that night in the submersible as he was overcome by whatever void that foul thing slithered out of. That's sick. So, and I know it's far down.

I immediately think of the subnotica going down to see the Titanic thing, whatever, implosion? Oh, I thought you were talking about the video game Subnotica. Oh, yeah, I probably was I, what was he even called? I can't remember. Now I just think Subnotica, but that wasn't the name of it.

The Titanic implosion thing. I'm thinking that oh, when they were down there, they saw the fucking the beast, you know what I mean? Do you think that the guy was was he driven mad and he was hitting his face against the glass? Was it because of the madness? or was it like a deep infatuation to actually, I don't know, see or get to the thing?

Was it, do you think it was drawing them in or do you think he was just like, I can, I can't, this is hell. Like, don't take me. It's a little cheating because I know where the stories go. Oh, well, then I mean. But I think on my first read, my idea was like the side of it drove him mad. Yeah. The fact that this thing exists was like, which doesn't really hold up because he's an SCP biologist. so we've seen a lot of stuff that would theoretically drive someone mad.

Well, even if he's a rational person being driven to an irrational place, I think can be justified. I think to, once again, it kind of puts in that mode where I'm like, I don't really know if I, if I am vibing with it being so big and so monstrous versus it being like some kind of entity just floating in the water or something to where it's causing you that existential dread, something that's just, it's in a key point. And it's, it can still move around the earth, but it's so, it's, you know, it's tiny. And that way, that way you can, if you did have people who just kind of somehow came across it or it showed itself to somebody, almost like a weird mermaid or something even. Like, that would be fucked, you know. Yeah. Who knows? I could see that.

I think there is, I mean, it's not like that. I think it's just a predator, but I'm pretty sure there is a mermaid SCP. I remember right. I'd hope so. Discovery. SCP 3,000 was discovered in 1971, shortly after two, bang, Bangladeshi fishing boats and 15 fishermen were reported missing after drifting near the Indian coast. As the country of Bangladesh had only been recently established at the time and had been subject to significant political persecution on the part of Pakistan,

this incident received high-profile media attention due to fears that it was a result of foreign aggression. Local coastal dispatch units cannot locate the missing boats, fueling further media hysteria. Foundation researchers stationed in Calcutta, now Kolkata, Drew similarities between this disappearance and another incident two years earlier. Marriott Pashler counters revealed the location of the two boats, as well as an unknown, previously undiscovered mass deep below the surface of the Bay of Bingle. Further investigation by Foundation Divers discovered the existence, SCP 3,000. The area was quickly secured and current containment procedures were put in place in April of 1972.

The Atzac protocol was adapted in October of 9,000. 1998. So this is Addendum 301, which is the initial contact exploration log. So this was like the initial notes from when they came across it. 1971 to 1998, 26 years of basically figuring this kind of actual. Of like, because research was hard to perform. Sure. It's, you know, it's a

kilometer underneath the ocean. Also, like, I can only imagine how long it took to track how big it is. Sure. Underwater. Yeah. I mean, I'm probably wouldn't even want to fucking approach the thing. Oh my God. Okay, let's go measure it. I'm going to swim right up next to it. Yeah.

I'm good, especially because it's like, has memetic in a presence and like controls root. Not only is this huge, but I have a gun and I'm going to end up. 3,001. Note, the following is the transcript of audio logs taken during the initial deep sea diver contact with SCP 3,000. Until this point, no foundation diver had come within 300. meters of 3,000.

Divers were tasked with assessing the creature and determining the source of the thick, gray fluid that had been observed floating around its head. Dive team was composed of three members of MTF Orion 9, known as Kingfisher's, led by MTF 09 Alpha. Which, side note, if you're like

into like gun stuff or like military stuff, that's one of the reasons the SEP Foundation's so cool, because there are dedicated like special force units for everything. Yeah. Like the group who does underwater diving and stuff is knows the kingfishers, right?

Is it a sick name? There's a... I will say just right off the top as not being that big of, you know, not being that big of a gun guy or like I, you know, fucking Hermie dude or whatever. When I read this shit, I'm always just like, what the fuck are you even talking about?

MT9 Orion, what I get lost. So MTF stands for Mobile Task Force. It's a military term. So if like you have a ground unit who, like does something on site and they have a specialty, you'll have like an MTF or like hostage team rescue or like bomb disposed. So if there was like a school shooter, you would. You would have a mobile task force for, I mean,

normally like if, you know, police respond or whatever, it's not to the degree, but your MTF would be like, um, threat dispatch or threat elimination. Which is pretty much what a squad team does. Waco kind of thing. Yeah, yeah. So similar to that. Waco, Waco was a bit different.

Waco was like you had the ATF going because it was gun charges originally. But then actually that's a good example because after the ATF had the shootout and now that they considered hostages were in the building, they left and then you had the HRT come in, which was the hostage rescue team. So that's like a... So it's just these units of people who are designated to do one thing. Yeah, yeah, pretty much. Mobile Task Force.

Launchpoint was through the airlock of the Foundation submarine, SCPF, Stravinsky. All divers were equipped with high pressure suits. as well as front-facing headlamps. Additionally, a tether was connected to 09 Alpha, which was then connected in a T-shape out to both Bravo and Foxtrot. So these are the divisions given to the individual members of the team. All right, command. We're situated in airlock and ready to roll.

Confirm, go ahead and sound off. Orion 9 Alpha check. Orion 9 Bravo check. All right, men, we're in position about 500 meters from the head of the creature. Make sure your tethers are on getting tight. We don't want any of you getting separated out there. What's visibility like down here today? Command.

Stand by. About three meters. So it's dark. Got it. Why are we so far out? Size of these things are to comprehend and it's wrapped up in itself in several places. We can't get too close because there's too much body there. The entity hasn't moved in about three weeks. At all?

Affirmative. It moves slightly with the currents down here, but nothing more than that. more than that. If it weren't for the head movement that was observed by the first submersible team, we probably wouldn't know if it was alive or not. Oh, well, that's reassuring. All right. Tethers are tight. Flood the chamber. Confirmed. The Russian water is heard as the airlock chamber floods. Again, this is all an audio log. No other sound is heard for several minutes. After some time, the sound of Russian water stops. You both good? I'm good. It's cold. Hopefully it won't be out for too long then.

Turn your lights, boys. Here we go. All members of the dive team exit the airlock. There's a low mechanical sound as the airlock door closes behind me. My full click sound is heard, and the Stravinsky activates its a floodlights. Hey, Alpha. I, uh, maybe this is a bad time to ask, but I can't remember how to turn on my lamp, and your lap is on Foxtrot. It, what?

What did you call me? Your designation, Malini. Fox Trot. I'm Foxtrot, boss. Hang on. What are you talking about? I don't understand what you mean by designation. It's your goddamn call sign, Bravo. What do you mean? Who's Bravo?

Shit. Hang on. I was going to say something. Barry, are you still there? Stand by. Go for command. Hey, we're having a little trouble out here. I'm not sure who... We seem to have some confusion over designations and I'm not sure where we're going. Where exactly are we? God.

Do you... Do you guys feel that? I've just got an awful headache. It's like needling in my brain. Something... Doc Team, be advised that we believe you may be experiencing some detrimental cognitive effects. Keep moving forward and we'll give you more information as we receive it. Noted.

Command. Be advised that Fox Church... has a terrible headache. I think I... Are we going in the right direction? We can't see out here. You are roughly 150 meters from the head of the entity, Alpha. You should be getting a visual suit. Command, I don't see anything. Where are we? Where are we?

We're almost there, Alpha. Dive Team, be advised. Picking up movement from the entity on radar. I... Very... I don't see anything down here. What are we supposed to be looking? All I can see is darkness. There's a foul wind blowing pushing me towards a brink. I can't. Shut up!

Shut up! Come in! Bravo is unresponsive. Requesting immediate cessation of mission. Wait a second. On the edge of nothingness, inches from oblivion, there's a sickness in my mind that I know can't be cured. Beyond me is only blackness in a single pair. single pair of dark eyes.

What? What are you saying? Dive team, we're gonna pull you back in immediately. We have reason to believe that. Mary, is that you? Who could be? I shuffled a dirt during here. I can't hear something over here.

Alpha, you're light. You're fucking. Silence, only silence. My consciousness coming undone and only and only and only. Dive team, something is moving towards you. Repeat. Something is moving towards you. I'm prepared to return to...

This is shit. I can't see. How far away from the... It's right there! It's right there! Fuck! What are you both doing? Fuck!

Only the eel remains. Radio silence for 20 seconds. Alpha. Further radio silence for 13 seconds. Alpha, Bravo, Fogstra, do any of you hear us? I just know like that. Oh, thank God. Bravo, you need to speak up.

We can't... Shh. Radio silence for another 10 seconds. Something's bound up the winch between you and us. We can't... It's opening its mouth. It's so dark. There's...

Where am I? What? Barry? How can it be? I shuttle the dirt. My lady is swim. Can't wait. There's only darkness.

Swap. There's sudden tension in the tether attached to the Stravinsky. O'Nive Foxtrug's radio goes silent. There's a sound of a struggle through the other two radios. Fox Trot, Foxtrot, Alpha, Bravo. Talk to me. Stay calm.

What happened? It ate him. Fuck. He's gone. It took him whole. God damn. Alpha, what are you doing? Alpha.

Cut the fucking goddamn tether, Alpha. He's pulling us in. Oh, fuck. Total radio silence for 30 seconds. Tether attached to Stravinsky is pulled free from its moorings and disappears. Alpha Bravo, do you copy? Radio silence for five seconds. Alpha, bravo, do you copy?

This is Bravo. I'm floating in the dark. I can see shapes moving through the fog, but they're hard to make out. I cut my tether. Alpha wooden. I think he's gone. I don't see his light anymore.

Acknowledge. Hang on. Just let me think for a second. Cognition. This thing. It doesn't work around it. Your brain kit form of thought. It hurts.

It's like dying. But Bravo, do you have eyes on the entity? It's my head, guys. Coiled up in there like a snake. It's something about it is... caustic. I can see it just in front of me. It's not doing anything. It's moving. Just hanging there with its mouth open.

I think it's finished eating. The fluid is seeping through the skin around its head. About a meter back. Just looking at stuff is making me like the room is spinning. I feel malicious. My head isn't working right. There's an abortion under the floatboards, and another is in this...

Wait, this is wrong. That wasn't me who said that. I'm going to collect a sample, hang on. Bravo, we're going to send out a crew to get you, just hold on. Oh no, don't do that. You have to be trained not to feel things I'm feeling. Otherwise, it will get into you. Maybe it will anyway, who knows?

It feels like the end of the world down here, fellas. My heart is going off the charts. I think I'm dying. Just... I got a sample. I'll attach it to one of those little balloons and let it float up. You'll be able to get it later. Don't spend too much time around that stuff.

It doesn't... Your mind... Bravo! I think I'm dying. I'm dying. I know I'm dying. This is it. I just want to get away from here.

You know, it occurs to me. don't send anyone else out here it's so dark Bravo that's really good you did great well that was like that's like 10 out of 10 look at that

I love I love a nice there's nothing seriously more horrifying than losing the ability to control you on thoughts like being mental deterioration is the most horrifying thing it starts with like they can't remember each other it's like wait you're Bravo I'm Bravo

and then Bravo's like my head hurts and he's like Command Foxtrot's head hurts It's quick too it's like like almost immediately they're all getting ready and then all of a sudden it's like as soon as it got into some kind of zone it just and it's like I don't know if it's elaborated on but to me it's almost like Bravo like okay so command's name was Barry right commander's name and I think he was getting Barry's memories for a second because he's like oh interesting because he's like you can't be Barry I buried you I dug the the dirt and maybe it's like a memory Barry had of burying someone yeah it's it's it's hard to say it's because there was also like things about like abortion and other kind of it kind of feel like all of like maybe like they're guilty consciousness kind of come in even Barry's guilty conscience it's like they're all it took all of their memories and like platoed it together and now they're like pulling pieces out what do you think the secretion is so it'll actually go into that in a second oh well I guess the first time you read it like um so it is definitely so because the guy there says even just looking at it, I feel off. So it is probably like, basically like the essence of the creature. I was under the impression originally when I started reading it,

which is kind of cheating because I've read a ton of SEP stuff before I read this, that it's a kind of amnestic. So in the SEP universe, amnestics are used a lot. Basically, you remember men in black, like the neuralizer? Like, oh, a bunch of people saw something they showed. it, boop, like, delete your memory, right? I figured it was something that, oh, yeah, like, it's a, it's a layer of something that just makes you go insane.

Just takes, like, takes yourself away. Yeah, yeah. I was almost thinking that if he's, if he's this big and he's excreating stuff, how much is he polluting the water and stuff? Like, is it as a way of him being able to, like, you know, is he slowly just seeping shit over time to the ocean. The ocean's huge, you know, even if you're 700 miles long, the ocean's giant.

So I didn't know if it's something that, if it's some kind of way of him to be able to secrete this kind of stuff into the water as well it just I don't know over time I guess fuck everyone but I don't yeah I mean like it says they originally started looking for him

in this region because there was like the goo it was around so it probably wasn't pretty big a little dirty camera going on her over the next half hour the SCPF Stravinsky attempted to approach O9 Bravo with no success command continued to attempt to communicate

with O9 Bravo but Bravo grew increasingly unintelligible before eventually going completely silent. Robo's radio stayed active over the next three days, an intermittent breathing could be heard until the radio ceased function. That's so fucked. Three days just down there. You just listen to a man just like breathing, like just

kind of slowly dying? It's pretty rough. Also, this is probably when they probably implemented the rule of hey, if they're gone, if they're down there, they're gone. They're lost. Yeah. If they leave the ship, they're considered lost. Also, hearing all that stuff too, I feel like it would, how do you justify sending more and more people? I guess the Stalingrod method

Well, that too Well, you're about to find out While the foundation keeps doing it Remember, this thing is not categorized As a Euclid or a Keter It is categorized as a thomule Which means the organization is using it for something We're probably fucking harvesting the cum

They wouldn't do that, would they? Let's find out I would. Addendum 3002 This is the Atzac protocol So it's an explanation of what that is Protocol dictates certain interactions With the Class 8 Cognito Hazardous entity

SCP-3,000, and as such as level 5 classified. In other words, this is like, you have to be super high up to know that this is a thing that exists. The following protocol was developed in conjunction with researchers from Site 29 and Site 50, areas around the region, as well as researchers stationed at 151. Some sections may have been redacted to remove material about the classification. Adherence to this protocol is required for all personnel assigned to 151, as well as all personnel assigned to the SCPF Arimat. abstract the 151 Hollister atzac protocol has been developed and implemented to create a strategy for the management of the Y-909 chemical excreted by 3,000

protocol information the Y-909 compound originally discovered by the late Dr. Adam Hollister if I wonder why that happened is a critical component in several modern and experimental amnestic compounds specifically the following amnestics now contain a refined version of Y-909

compound. These are all the different various. So what's fun is when you're reading a different SEP way later, and it's like, I can track and see if these are one of them. Yeah. So like, you'll get to something where it'll be like a creature broke out in the middle of a small town. And it'll be like 30

people were administered with class X amnestic. And you're like, oh yeah, I know they get that class, they get that amnestic from this guy. Yeah. So there's like world building in that sense. Well, I like the world building, but I also like how you can take from the story without completely

because with the creepy pos is I feel like no sleep you're taking someone else's character creation and like if you wanted to use it again you're kind of like taking that person's character without them really saying right is that cool versus you just saying like oh class X it's like yes it comes from this but you could also just be like oh

that's like a fun way exactly yeah it doesn't take anything away from the yeah it's just like oh yeah SV 3000 got it yeah like comes off of that the collaborative efforts and like the community around this is just I can see how it would be just way more more strong of being like, oh, that's cool. Oh, yeah.

Especially, like, there's some characters who will, like, show up between different ones, and that's always cool. See, like, there's this one researcher named Dr. Bright, who was handling a medallion that was, like, found at the center of, like, some occult worship, and they didn't know what the medallion did. So, one day, a researcher named Dr. Bright is, like, carrying the medallion around, and there's an explosion, and he's killed. Then in the

in the cleanup for the site, someone finds the necklace. It's like the medallion's like on a chain and they put it on and instantly Dr. Bright comes to consciousness in their body. And it turns out that if you die while holding the amulet,

your soul is basically preserved in the amulet and anyone who puts on that amulet immediately becomes brain dead and you possess them until the amulet comes off. That's crazy. And if the amulet comes off, that person who have put it on just drops over dead. They're effectively dead the moment

the chain slips on. But if it comes off, then they kind of regain consciousness. No, they're dead. Oh, forever. The moment that goes on, they are brain dead. And if the necklace comes off,

they just drop. Oh, so they have to keep it on. Yeah, they have to keep it on. So what will happen is you'll have a story where you're reading about like some ancient, like a cult underground thing or whatever. And there will be a mention of like,

the high priest seems to have a medallion underneath his cloak. And you're like, oh, that's Dr. Bright. Like, Dr. Bright's like, that's actually Dr. Bright's like, that's actually Dr. right possessing the pre-she'll have stuff like that like fun crossovers and things yeah so the inclusion of the Y-909 compound has shown a marked

increase in the stability and long-term effectiveness of the aforementioned amnestics overall amnestics utilizing Y-909 break down 78% slower than their standard counterparts in cold storage and 52% slower than their counterparts at room temperature additionally individuals administered with amnestic

regime utilizing 909 show a marked increase in suggestibility memory clearance and a significant decrease in additional side effects like nausea, vomiting, bowel distress, blurred vision headaches, all the stuff that comes with, you know, wiping people's memory. Individuals treated with these amnastics express significantly fewer intrusive memories as those without 909, with some individuals exposed to experimental compounds expressing no intrusive memories whatsoever, even at the 5 and 10 year marks. Due to the effectiveness of

these treatments with the addition of 909, the continued inclusion of this compound is essential to modern foundation application. Reliance on the continued use of 909 necessitates its collection for the foreseeable future as a synthetic version of the compound has not yet

been discovered. So you'll come, they're basically going to use it to white people's memories. And everything we just read is justification for like, well, it works so well. Yeah. We have to keep using that. So the dangers associate. Big business type of shit. Big business stuff. Yeah. Yeah. It's for the great, that's

That's the foundation's whole thing. It's always for the greater good. Yeah, it's always for whatever comes next. Yeah, exactly. And sometimes they're right. I'm sure it is in a way, but it's just a matter of like, it's at the greater good is always at the loss. Yes, exactly.

The only reason you have to preface that is because someone's losing somewhere, right? And we're about to see why some people that lose. As such, this protocol dictates the way this compound is collected off of 3,000, and the way personnel are to interact with 3,000. blows a brief framework of the procedure and detailed information can be found in the full at-zac brief. Members of MTF Epsilon 20

known as the Knight Fisherman Pretty cool are to prepare a subject for deliverance to the feeding site. One individual D-Class subject is to be administered a sedative and equipped with a high-pressure diving suit. Yeah.

They're going to give a guy Ambien and put him in a fucking seat and suit. Yeah, I feel like that. sleepy. Don't worry, buddy. We're going to... We're going to swimming. We're going to Disneyland. They put Michael

Phelps down there and have him just slapping the roof of his helmet. You good, buddy. All right. And when you come back up, you'll get... The charges are free. It's a guy in like a giant like suit. Like, there's like a sleep flowing down. He's just like...

The subject is then to be tethered to an underwater ROV within the aft air log. Their lock is to be flooded, and the subject is to be towed by the ROV towards the feeding side. Oh, fuck, dude. Just like an unconscious body, like a little like scuba thing dragging him. Upon reaching the feeding side, the ROV is to disconnect its tether and return to the Aramita. Through this stage, Aramita should monitor 3,000's position, and adjust course if the entity begins to move away from the feeding side.

Mission Command will provide additional instructions during the phase if necessary. Personnel aboard the aramita are to monitor 3,000 during feeding sessions. During this time, no personnel are permitted to leave the aramida without authorization from command. At a point after the total consumption of prey, 3,000 will begin to excrete 909 near the foremost section of its body. Specialized teams of deep-sea divers are to exit the aramita through the aft airlock and approach 3,000. Collection of 909 must take place during 3,000's digestive period, which is currently believed to be roughly two and a half hours after consumption of prey.

Teams must return to launch craft before the end of this period. During this period, the typical effects of 3,000 are less severe, though command should continue to monitor these teams for damage to their cognition. After collection of 909 is complete, personnel to transfer the collected substance to secure containers before returning to the surface. The mission administrator on board the armitter is to monitor the substance throughout transport. operate or the atzac protocol is feed a person to it and then during the digestive period collect come yeah now it seems that during the digestive period

it is less mind controly right we even saw that in the first thing when fox trot was eaten by it bravo had a moment he like there's like i think this thing's messing with our mind stuff like that so if you don't exit the craft until it's eating then maybe you can collect it without having your mind messed with. It's kind of an interesting take on a sacrifice. Yeah. Offering a sacrifice up to somebody. It is just putting a guy in a

suit. They're just like, sorry, buddy. Just push him out on the ship slowly. Also, we, it's under the inception, too, that the eel does not move. It's just kind of idle. It's super slow. Yeah, so like it's slow. Well, he mentions like it slowly turned its head towards our craft.

They said just the head moved slowly. So, yeah, I was going to say, but it's body is idle, but it's just kind of sit there and it just kind of sits in place. Pretty menacing. Oh, yeah. It's terrifying. You mentioned the thing with, like, what other motives does it have? You know what I mean?

Well, I mean, like, especially they said, mentioned it's, like, coiled in itself. I imagine, like, getting to it, it's like a cave, but it's a cave of itself. Of, like, it's walls. How long would you mean? If you got eaten by the thing, you would just, I mean, you would just

drowned to death or something? I mean, like, imagine going into a body that big. Yeah, you would, well, yeah, there's no mention of showing people up or digestion, whatever, but. Yeah, it depends on how the digestive process is for the, the come, as you called it, for the 909 to come out. Like, maybe it immediately like dissolves you and then pulls it out, or maybe you just like slowly decompose through its system or knows, yeah. It's long enough that you have time to rot away. So, addendum 3,000.3 psychological evaluation. So this is a note on the date of redacted.

Level 3 researcher Vincronom, Krishna Morthy. Vincontraman Krishna Mourthy. Got it. Attempted to exit out the Aramida's aft airlock without diving equipment, but was quickly restrained in the airlock cycle aboard it. Despite having a CRV of 26, which is a measurement of like how well they can hold up to it, and having not displayed any previous signs of depression or suicidal attempts prior to the assignment aboard the Armitta, Christiana Morthy was interviewed by staff clinical psychologist, Dr. Anand Manava,

to acquire a better understanding of SCP-3,000's potential effect on his psyche. So this is an interview between someone who went crazy and a doctor. Ivan Cappell, how are you feeling? Unwell. That's what I hear. Do you want to talk about what happened today? We don't have to, if you don't want to. We can talk about something else.

I'm tired, Anand. I understand. This assignment's been stressful on all of... It's not... No, it's... It isn't the stress. I've done this before. I've been on...

I don't actually know if I've done this before. You have. I don't remember it. Any of it. I've been getting these out-of-context feelings. Like my body reacting to reflexes as if it didn't know it had. Everything was so disconnected.

And trying to keep it together is... I'm just tired. When did you start feeling this way? How long have we been down here? I don't remember. I don't know when, I honestly... I don't know when, I honestly don't. I wish I could tell you more than that, but I have nothing.

I look to the place in my mind that there's something else there, or sometimes nothing at all. What do you mean something else? I've been having other people's dreams and not. I see faces. I don't recognize. Places I know I've never been. Or maybe I have. I don't know.

How can I know what is real or not when I can't trust my own mind? Well, maybe I can help you with that, Bencott. We can go over things you think you've forgotten, and I can... Don't patronize me! I know you felt it. Your mind gets hazy. Parts of you start to slip. Your memories grow faint.

memories grow faint, fading in and out until they're gone or worse, replaced. You see past that aren't yours, experiences you've never lived. You start to become other people or nobody at all. And, Cod, please. I'm just trying to help. Do you even know my work before we met? Come to think of it, I don't even remember how we met. I know your name. I know you're a psychologist.

But are we friends? Are we brothers? I don't know how I know you We work together I know that I still have that Both things They come and go

I don't know if I'm married Or have children I see here And that That isn't the worst of it I know this is happening to me I don't know my mind is coming apart But there's something else in there too

Something rising out of the out of the smoke of my smoldering consciousness. That eel. The eel? I don't remember my mother. I can hear her voice, but I can't remember her face. I can't remember how she smiled or how she... But what I do remember is she told me about gods.

There is a god called Edita Chesa, a serpent, the king of serpents, said to lie beneath Vishnu and the cosmos. A six-headed snake god, isn't that something? It, uh, yes, I'm familiar. Ah, of course. I'm sorry, I forgot. She, I don't remember much, but I do remember that she told me about how Anastasia would linger past the end,

gaze upon the darkness past the end of time. She said that. When the light of the universe had gone out, all that will be left is Anastitia. I've worked my entire life at the foundation so much as I can recall. I have struggled to build my name and my reputation and done everything I can do to leave.

Something, anything, some kind of mark that says I was here. What is it? I believe that SDP 3,000 is Anastusa. I believe that this, this aberration this treachery against cognition is the result of us being the presence of a God not just a God but

a God who exist across all time all at once and even beyond maybe some part of the nothingness beyond the edge of time is part of Anastitia as well maybe it acts as a conduit some kind of Vincott, please

for scientists no let me finish in defiance of the nothingness that comes after this all of this there's Anastisha. There's a chance that my memories might live on. That I might be remembered

like memories I've seen, like memories I've seen have been through me. I don't have a proof of this, but when I looked into my eye, when I looked into its eyes and saw what it showed me, I was afraid. I'm merely a mediocre man.

There was, this was a fear that I had refused to acknowledge for years, a fear of irrelevance, that no one will know who I, who I am when I that no one will know who I am when I die afraid of being forgotten afraid of life being meaningless

afraid of being alone afraid of dying there's a terror within me that I cannot reconcile or not I won't lie to you and tell you that the Ma of Naga does not terrify me as well but between this and the infinite dark I've gazed into

I have made up my mind end log so what did you think of that it's interesting well it's interesting that a guy was able to go down and then come back so this was a guy who was on the ship who went up for a brief second and came back and threw one of the guys to feed him and stuff so there's two ways to look at this

there is one that what he's saying is right that this is effectively an old world god that the foundation stumbled across and the foundation not caring for religion or anything has come across a god and categorized it like an animal that they can you know play with effectively uh the other way to view it is that the animal has strong memetic capabilities and it we see from this it makes

people want to be eaten by it. It gives people full of ideas like an angler fish almost to be hypnotized and drawn into it. So it is just filling his mind with things to make that happen. Like maybe this guy does have a memory, like you can't remember his mom, but maybe the story of the snake god she used to tell him is real. the creature has manipulated his memory to be like, I am that snake god, like anything to fill the present. Yeah. I think that regardless, that's a godlike power. Yeah. Oh, it is. It is. It's supernatural for sure. Regardless of it, if it is the name of the deity they sang, I think that it's still, I am under the impression that it is like an old god somehow. I, and also, if it is, then that leads into what you were

saying when you were like, it's almost like sacrificing people to ancient gods. That's exactly what the foundation is doing. They're appeasing. God by pushing people into it. Yeah. So it's kind of like it's interesting. I like SCPs like this because it's like taking ancient religion and like human sacrifice practices and putting it through a modern scientific lens.

Through scientific lens and also I like the logs of people talking about once again their dissent or they're trying to rationalize something that the human brain cannot, would never be able to fathom. It's kind of like those universal questions where it's like the human brain is not meant to comprehend. The unknowable.

Yeah. The exponential. And I just eat that shit up. Yeah. I love it. Addendum 3,000.4. After two days of containment within a secure holding cell on board the Armitta, orders were received to lift the hold order on Dr. Krishna Morthy, in accordance to the terms of the ad sac protocol. Three hours after Krishna Morthy was released from his holding cell, the following incident took place. So this one is a video and audio log. So it'll cut between a description of what was happening on camera and the audio. So Christian Mordy stands near the entrance to the Aramida's airlock. Subject is facing away from nearest camera. Proximity alarm is triggered. Exterior floodlights activate. 3,000 is still not visible. Command is alerted and Aramita's engines engage

preparing for evasive maneuvers. Christian Morthy is startled by proximity alarm and begins to appear panicked. Subject continues to look at entrance to the after airlock. Subject turns briefly towards nearest camera and is observed to be weeping. Christian Morthy slowly approaches after airlock and opens airlock door. Subject enters airlock and primary access. door seals behind subject. Interior airlock camera captures Kristen Morley's staring at exterior airlock door for a full

two minutes unmoving. After two minutes, subject collapses on the ground. All cameras shutter as primary turbine spin up. 3,000 is visible on radar approaching the arimida. 3,000 is not visible on exterior cameras. Christian Morley stands up and approaches diving suit locker. Subject puts on a high pressure deep sea diving suit. and then moves towards exterior door controls.

Subject engages exterior door latch, interior airlock cameras obscured by rushing water. Secondary alarms triggered by airlock breach. Personnel on the bridge attempt to close airlock, and Christian worthy has already exited the airlock. Christian Mordy hangs in the water behind the aft section of the Aramita, illuminated by exterior floodlights, subject is motionless. 3,000 slowly appears from out of the darkness.

Christian Mordy remains motionless. exterior camera shutter as aramida begins to reverse towards christian morthy rescue teams have assembled in the airlock chamber three thousand approaches christian morthy its mouth begins to open aramida sounds warns that neither three thousand or subject appear to notice three thousand moves to just above christian morthy subject appears to look up into the now fully expanded jaw of three thousand airmena begins to flash external floodlights airlocked opens I was wrong God save me it's not it

3,000 strikes and quickly consumes Christian Morthy 3,000 disappears into the darkness is no longer visible on exterior cameras rescue crews are recalled crew begins to initiate ADZAC protocol in line Do you think I mean I still think that

when he says I was wrong I think do you think that maybe he thought that the God that he was thinking of was maybe like what what i think is happening there is for one maybe it's a theory that it's not the old god right but if it is christian morley was talking in that interview about how like he longs for something greater he was like you know death and the nothingness of the afterlife is menacing so maybe there's some greater revelation within 3 000 right i almost think that him thinking that if this thing is talking to him that he feels special because this thing is mimicate,

like manipulating his mind talking to him. So he's like, oh, I'm worthy. But then when he gets there, it's almost like, it's nothing. And he's just like, oh, wait, I'm just going to die. Yeah, this is just, I'm just killing myself right now. Yeah. I think that's what it was. I think it's to realize that even if, because it still leaves open the door that it could be the old God.

Maybe he's not wrong about that, but he's wrong about some greater enlightenment. Also, he has some deity or something that he does believe in. um to say like you know god save me it's not whatever and it's yeah i think it's him realizing that he probably like gave his faith to something that was she a wolf and sheep's clothing he picked the wrong god yeah yeah uh i also which is a menacing thought in its own right very very what have been praying to you know very horrifying thought let's say well i like sCP stuff because you can get into weird scenarios like this definitely play with the so i also like to mention that he gets eaten and it's like oh no we're not going to let all that go to waste

like they send out their little collection unit also just goes to show that like this is just such a faceless like yeah no one gives a shit well someone ate it and some you know further greater good yeah but no I really like that I also like the note that like on the camera he's weeping and he collapses for two minutes

it's almost like if he is being sort of possessed by the creature he's like trying to fight it like he doesn't want to be eaten by it See, I almost read that as just even further dissident. Like, I read it almost like him coming to terms with those own thoughts and stuff and him getting, like putting on the airtight suit and stuff as him having the goal to be like, I'm going to, like I'm going to make a name for myself. Yeah. I can see that.

Yeah. That's how I kind of looked at it. I'm fully committing to this. Yeah. Now we move on to addendum 3,000.5. This is the personal journal of Dr. Manava. So Manava is, was the, the, was he? a psychologist or a therapist.

He was just another doctor on thing on the psychologist that was talking to Christian Morty. Yeah. So note, the following are excerpts from the diaries of Dr. Manaba. Dr. Manava has kept several journals during his assignment and has reported that it is beneficial to counteract the

psychological and memory affecting properties of 3,000. So Manava's figured out like, I better write down what I remember. Well, yeah, I'm going to get it. Yeah. Can you imagine being down there and not doing that? Like having some kind of actual clear reference. Otherwise, you're just going to I mean, you're looking at a picture of your family. Who is this?

Yeah, no shit. His first entry from September, is I think of it? No. Yeah, September 23rd, 2009. I come to Barry Vincott, not to praise him. Psychologically speaking, having your memories affected like his is not a pleasant experience for anyone. I really shouldn't be surprised he chose to relieve himself from having his memories meddled

with. After all, it's really alarming. Being briefed on its effects doesn't change the fact that I need to constantly keep tabs on all my staff, myself included, and ground us to reality. I am supposed to submit a full psychological report now detailing what has gone wrong, why a staff member turns suicidal, and a full analysis of possible ways to prevent this from happening again in the future to the 05 and site director Knox. Site director is like individual sites will have a director. Sure. And then the 05 is the secret shadow organization that exists above the SCP. So if the 05 want to know about, that means they're

very concerned and 05's like they're like the top dogs who there are several sEPs theorizing who they are because no one knows who the 05 is it's like it's the shadow organization of the shadow organization oh 5 and site director knox have it reviewed and some new regime designed to prevent such a travesty from happening again he always was more religious than i am right at the end of his life he was riffing on an at shisha primordial hindus snake god and rambling about eternity I'm not going to question the legitimacy of his beliefs and his claims, but this is quite the enigma, and I suppose I should consider myself lucky that this assignment is relatively benign compared to previous assignments that I've had.

I don't think this is a mythical eel, anomalous maybe, but not really that extraordinary. It's funny, I spent the last 30 years blocking out everything my father wanted to teach me about Hinduism, and now I'm racking my brain, trying to remember anything you had to say about it. I want to say that it's because of the eel, but if I'm being honest with myself, I simply try to forget all his teachings. Maybe not at the beginning, but certainly by the end. I can barely even remember what he looked like.

But I do remember how angry he got when I couldn't remember the names of my grandparents or great uncles. He was desperate to preserve his heritage, and I did everything I could to spite him. On his deathbed, he begged me to perform the traditional last rides after his death. He even wrote the instructions down when I was so angry at him that I tore them up in front of him. I can't even remember why. The only memories I have of him are how he made me feel.

It's been almost 20 years trying to pass down our heritage. I'll have now his anger and hatred and regret. September 30th, site director Knox gathered staff this morning for a short morning. After a few brief and laconic eulogies, he took me aside and told me that Vincat's replacement will come in a few weeks. and as he kept no contact with his family, it's likely his belongings will just be disposed of and are now technically foundation property. The director indicated that if I wanted to keep a thing or two for him, I should do so now. His office was relatively unremarkable, his cushy, squash chair cushion,

a few office toys, a lot of marine biology books that I should probably check out someday. The only thing I took was a statue of Ganesh that stood next to the window. Not fully sure why myself, but he's now sitting on. the bookshelf next to a picture of myself my wife and our daughter at a lakeside terrace it's a pretty unremarkable trip some tourist trap in luck now this really is one of our best-looking pictures going on during tomorrow another one from november 11th all of the d-class managed to stay put this week which is good other than the routine depression of memory loss from exposure to 3 000 everything was in order sometimes i'm a bit envious at them all they know is why they're scooping gunk off some

big ill. They don't know if it's importance or why it's critical that they collect it, how much it helps us. So even the people who are collecting it have no idea what it is. Yeah, like it is super secret that the reason they're collecting it is so that they can use it as an end-based thing. They don't know

about this. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. They don't know. They're clueless to all. Yeah. Of course, one saving grace of being on the psychological division for the Atzac project is the awareness of its potential effects. I'm aware of what's happening to my psyche. I know that I have memories that are being drained, pieces that are being lost right now.

I recall images of a young man on a bicycle in front of a schoolyard gate, looking like it was the 80s. When I was in Singapore, he was laughing. Yet I don't know if this man was a friend, a lover, a son, a family friend, who this young man is. Perhaps Italian, maybe Australian. Maybe this isn't even a cherished memory at all. I looked at the Ganesh statue and the picture of my family again It's really quite a shame

I truly forgot most anything that I've done with them I've started trying to learn some Hindu poems and songs Went out and got a copy of the Vodas But I can't memorize the lines properly I've been reflecting on what Ben Kat told me before he passed though His deep, deep-seated fear of mediocrity Unable to rise out of the sea of humans

That Walk on the face of this earth He's worked for the foundation for years and while he isn't one of the most well-known and household names of the foundation, he's not exactly obscure. He's been the foundation's leading marine biologist and go-to expert for anything aquatic and quite well revered. I'm actually quite surprised by his jealousy. He was never the flashy and bombastic type,

and I would have never guessed that he wanted fame and recognition. Perhaps he really was afraid that he assumed to be stuck in mediocrity. Perhaps the silence of this place reminded him of something worse. So this is now, so that's, uh, that doctor's logs right right we now move on to a memorandum or basically an update to the atzac brief so this is 3,000.6 so this has been made by someone that isn't the doctor that is the doctor we're talking about this is like an addendum to the atzac protocol so some new assignments had questions about our work here so I'm publishing this to clear most of them up feel free to contact my office

if there or any others the adzac protocol is a method for gathering and processing the 909 compound It's a thick, brackish gray fluid that 3,000 excretes as part of its metabolism. We don't know the exact method by which it does this, but we have some ideas. None of them are great for us. Initially, we thought it was bleeding. The first team we sent down to look at 3,000 went down to collect blood samples for analysis. The 3,000 attacked and consumed them and began producing more of the substance. We realized that we were looking at something different entirely.

That first group being the foxtrop bravo, those guys. It's definitely not blood. It's more akin to a preon slurry. It's extremely toxic, and spending too much time around the stuff causes a lot of the same effects as exposure to 3,000 does. Paranoia, memory loss, suicidal thoughts, etc. For finding the raw 909, what the processors call eel jelly, allows us to create amnestics more effective than any we've ever had access to in the history of this organization. Herein lies the ethical dilemma. 3,000 only creates 909 after eating, and it only eats human.

Remember when I said we had some ideas about how it does this? Some of our biologists have hypothesized that 3,000 is breaking down whatever makes a sapient creature sapient, filtering it through some part of its skin, and the residual ether is what we collect. You want to know if something really messed up? We've taken radiographs of this thing, trying to see what's going on inside it. It's full of dead bodies. It's not digesting them at all. It's doing something else.

At the end result, it's 909. So it's like it eats them, but it doesn't care about the biology. It just wants it inside. It's just pulling out, like, it's digesting their thoughts almost. It's digesting their souls and just leaving the bodies. It doesn't care for them. When we first started using 909 in our amnestic programs, we tried to synthesize it. We got something close to what we were looking for.

1919, but the side effects were catastrophic. The amnestics would work. We could get people to forget events, people, and so on. But then they would start to forget other things, too. The mental deterioration would rapidly increase until there was nothing left, and then they would die. A few of those researchers thought we might be able to figure out how to decrease the severity of those side effects, but the cost to continue those trials would have been astronomical, and the program was discontinued. It's no secret that what we're doing here is abhorrent.

The Ethics Committee, the Classification Committee, they're all looking at ways to make this more tolerable than what it is. But the hard truth is, if we want to continue to use... use modern amnestics, we have to have 9.09. If we want to have 9.09, we have to feed D-Class to 3,000. Otherwise, we'd be forced to go back to the metaphorical dark ages, where we were amnesticizing people with opiates and chloroform. Yeah, it's implied the organizations existed for hundreds of years. Sure. It used to be like, the amnestic was funky. Yeah, like, oh, what's that? Looks like you're crazy. Go to the asylum, yeah. The good news is, we're developing ROVs that should be able to take over the job of collecting the raw material from our dive teams.

This will eliminate any chance of accidental casualties like we've had in the past and is a good first step for everything else. Only time we'll tell. Director Knox. So there's Knox. So that's Knox's whole update. He's like one of the 05 people, I'm pretty sure. Well, he's the site director. Or site director. Because it said 05 and then site director Knox. So Knox is the one who's overseeing all this. And he's basically being like, look, you can't eat your cake and have it too. Like you've got to, we got, if we want the For the greater good. For the greater good, exactly.

Yeah, we got to throw people at the eel. If we want the eel, jelly. So this is an end in 3,000.7. This is also from the journal of Dr. Manava, who we read earlier. No, the following is the full text of a page pinned in the hand of Vanava, which was ripped out of a journal and placed on his nightstand. So, and it's undated. This is just a writing he put.

I've spent a considerable amount of time on this assignment attempting to understand the underlying effects of individuals exposed to a Class 8 cognito hazard. I have conducted numerous personnel interviews, written a great many psychological reports, but I have not been able to properly deduce what about this creature would lead a perfectly sane man out the door of that airlock and into the maw of that eel. Earlier this week, as I was preparing my notes for another report, I accidentally knocked a picture of myself, my wife, and my daughter off of my nightstand. The glass shattered as it hit the ground and the picture fell out. As I cleaned it up, I noticed something written on the reverse of the image. it said, Anon, Chanty, and Padma, June 2002.

But the writing was not mine, it was Vincats. I was puzzled by this. Why would Vincat have written on the back of a picture of mine? I thought little of it at the time and cleaned up the mess and went about my day, but this question stuck with me. It was a little thing, easily explained in any number of ways, but I could not seem to shake the notion of uncertainty. It was not until last night that a horrifying thought struck me,

one that I could not sleep on. I accessed the foundation personnel archives and realize the truth I cannot reconcile. Chanty was Vincat's first wife. Padma was his daughter. The records are clear. The life I remember, the experiences I am certain I've had with them, are the experiences and memories of Vincat, not me. I've never been married, and I have no children. Even now, I can see my wife in my mind. I hear her laughter, I smell her hair, but I know now that this is Vincat and I see her through, not me. Do you think that Ben Kat was experiencing Badov's thoughts than two of like insecurity and stuff? I think, so this is, I wasn't going to say it then.

I think everything that Vin Kat said about my mother used to tell me of the Hindu gods, those were bin Laden's memories. I think all of that was the eel manipulating him. It's like I said, Plato. Like you have 10 people, all their memories are now a ball and I will distribute them in whatever way feeds them to me. That's what I think it does. The horror of this realization has been.

replaced with a queer sort of dread. I figured out what the yield does, something about it, some latent part of its creation, abhors cognition. It breaks down human consciousness and scatters the part of us that we believe is a soul until all that remains is what we really are. Electrical signals that will someday become a nerd. Like pulls the soul out of you and digest that almost. If even I can't remember myself, how can I expect anyone else to remember me? I have forgotten my own life, and I am strangely apathetic at this revelation, I will fade into darkness as thousands before me have and thousands after me will. No one will care as I am forgotten. I do not despair for my own sake before us all. You and I will all face obliteration. I'm not important. You're not

important. Bashed droplets of irrelevancy stretching eons in the sea of time. We may fight against it, but our enemy is inevitability. I do not think that the eel is. is Anna Toshisha. I don't think it would matter if it was. What is clear to me now, as I feel myself coming apart, it's not that the eel is some mythological creature or divine serpent. Perhaps it's just a primitive creature that eluded us, holding no malice. Perhaps it really is a primordial entity, harboring resent beneath the surface. The eel is not the harbinger of my demise or humanity's doom. The eel is not the end of all things. It only shows us what the end looks like. And in spite of everything we might believe, every ideal we hold or providence we pray for,

I know this much is true all of us. Our end will be a forgotten one. No, Dr. Minava was later discovered unresponsive near the after-airlock. Evidence suggests that Dr. Minava had broken into the onboard storage locker and adjusted a significant amount of Raw 909. Dr. Manava was moved off of the Armitta and remains at site 151 for analysis. With that, we have the ending of SCP 3,000. That was a lot of fun. I mean, it's just a big, giant lovecraftian soup.

Yeah. That, like, it eats people, but it doesn't eat them biologically. It eats them, like, mentally. Him being that big and just having tons and tons of humans and himself is sick. Yeah. I still think, and I'm like,

I still under the impression where I'm like, let's just say it was a statue or just something. Right. Something that was just some kind of thing, some kind of idol to something that's smaller, that it still could suck people in and excrete in some kind of liquid. I think that's cool, too.

I don't know why this scale is making me, it's just seen, it's obnoxious. But I think it's just trying to maybe... So imagine it like across, it lays on the bottom of the ocean, right? And it's like infinite everywhere. And for, since humanity's existence, people have been feeding people to it.

Right. Like, the story opens with the 1971, 15 people went missing. So like, if there's no one nearby for the eel to call out to feed, it will call to shore. It will eventually, get someone to come feed it. And that's been happening since the dawn of time. Does it come up to the surface and eat people? It moves so slowly, maybe, or maybe like people just drown themselves.

Maybe it's their bodies. Maybe they start swimming down. Who knows? So it's, and it's half a mile down. So, I mean, you would like be super pressure and hurt, but if you go insane, you could reach that length, right? So it's all the way down there. And then the bodies that it ate 2,000 years ago are in there with the bodies that eat today. It's like a giant. I don't think of it so much, I think the reason it doesn't bother me, because normally I'm with you, like, okay, it doesn't need to be that big. I don't think of it so much as a

creature, as I think of it as like a living tunnel. Like, it is almost a superstructure, like a giant tomb down there. Well, that's what I was kind of thinking of it being a giant living organism tunnel that's connected to the earth. Yes. Like, almost like it can't even swim. It's just kind of like embedded into

the earth. It's like a plant or something. Yeah. And like, yeah, it has a face and it looks like an eel or whatever else, but it's like, whenever the earth was formed however so it's just been like that forever or it's just been around so long than now it just sinks to the floor and it's just like embedded itself in a weird way

and I love the way it plays with memories I remember the first time reading this getting so excited about the reveal that our first doctor who was convinced it was a god those weren't his memories that was the other doctors and then that doctor's seen his family the idea like you're saying of the Plato mashing air base stuff around and the realization you're like I'm not even

all these this life I feel like I've lived that's not even mine I can't remember my old life. You have one guy to believe the other guy's religion and the other guy had the other guy's family. It's such a fun twist. It's a lot of fun. I mean, for our first SEP, I think this is a this is a home run. What? So I want to ask you, if someone who came into this like, I do not like SCPs, I'm having a bad time, how did you feel about that? I think this was much, much, much, much, much, much more palatable than any of read. I think whenever you just get into stuff where it's the redacted stuff, or you harp too much on like, take them to this side.

Well, like, you get into the extreme minute details, which I'm sure a lot of people like when they're like... But you've got to be really into it. Yeah, this feels like it's just a different form of storytelling. It feels like a document. The only thing that was redacted, if I remember right, it was one date and then there were two amnestics that were redacted. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, there's one date.

And then when it was like, oh, this is the, yeah, two redacted amnestics. That's all I got redacted from the story. So it's pretty... Sometimes when you're reading through, there's so many things that are just... totally blacked out to where it fucks with the flow of what am I like what am I supposed to imagine well yeah it just if it fugs with it

which I understand that's the part of you know that mystery that's supposed to be built but this was just a fun way of telling us a story I like the all the inserts and logs and the kind of back and forth with people I think you really get a fun you got a really fun glimpse into the scientist and other people who are working on this thing and this

underwater yeah I also like the way some of its catalog like it's this looks like a almost a document folder of like this is a guy that died and like like you look at that guy he doesn't seem like someone that would go insane and like jump into the mouth yeah but he did yeah you know these little kind of evidence or photos always add so much like that's one thing once again i know i'm talking about cousin johnny a lot but cousin johnny just showing family photos you're like that's not he's not even our family exactly yeah that's i like that's i like that a lot but you know i think for our first sCP episode i'm i'm just glad that i made you because i remember

talking and you're like if i look at an sCP i'll kill myself yeah yeah i'm I felt very much like that. Yeah, no, I think this has been re-invigorating. Well, reinvigorating. I think that having somebody too who knows good ones to be able to come in and also have somebody here to kind of go back and forth with makes it a much more enjoyable set through. Also, I'm sure it's way funner to listen to as well.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. I used to listen to, I mentioned Volgun earlier. Volgun makes these where he reads these, but the entire presentation of the YouTube video is that he's a lecture, like at the foundation. That's cool. Running through. And I would listen to his stuff for hours on it. Shout out. Vulgan. Volga. V-O-L gun. Volgun.

Shout out of Vulgun. Yeah, Volgun's great. But yeah, I like listening to all time. Hopefully you all enjoyed it. Hopefully you all enjoyed it. I'm just one of the ones. I know SCP 3,000 is just one of the ones. I love out there. So if you all enjoyed this and if you enjoyed this, I would love to do more of the good ones. That's a big thing is see if people really dug this. Yeah. Because I know the creep TV and stuff. People like it. Some people. It's like it. It's like. This one I feel like it can be more applicable to also if you're driving your car. Yeah, it's like this is a creepcast episode. You can just sit there and listen to it and you get the same effect. I think it's cool. Well, yeah.

Without further ado, everybody, that was our SEP 3,000 episode. We hope you enjoyed it. And we'll catch you in the next one. Stay, stay. Oh, oh, SEP, secure creep, protect. Stay secured. Creeped, protected. Stay secure.

Stay secure. Stay protected. Stay crepe. Protect your creeps. Thank you. You know, I'm I'm going to be able to be.

And so. I'm going to do. And... ...you know. ...and... ...you know. ...that... ...and...

...you... ...you... ...you ...that... ...you... ...the... ...that... I don't know.
