Mã vật thể #: SCP-001-SƯ

Phân loại: Euclid

Quy trình Quản thúc Đặc biệt: SCP-001-SƯ sẽ được lưu trữ trong một buồng quản thúc dạng người tiêu chuẩn và được cung cấp chất bổ hai lần một ngày theo Bảng Dinh Dưỡng 001-SƯ-1. Buồng quản thúc chứa SCP-001-SƯ phải được canh gác bởi ít nhất hai thành viên của đội ngũ an ninh ở mọi lúc, cách xa khỏi buồng giam nói trên ba mét để ngăn ngừa ảnh hưởng ngoại cảm tiềm năng.

Các cuộc phóng vấn với SCP-001-SƯ sẽ được thực hiện bởi Quản Trị Viên một nhân sự Cấp-4.

Mô tả: SCP-001-SƯ là một thực thể có phần hình người được tạo thành từ vô số loại nấm ngoài hành tinh hoạt động trong sự cộng sinh rõ ràng. Phân tích của SCP-001-SƯ cả trước và sau sự vận chuyển của nó đến Trái Đất chỉ ra rằng nó có trí khôn, thể hiện khả năng giao tiếp giữa cả các bộ phận cấu thành và con người qua phương thức ngoại cảm. Bề mặt của nó phát quang xanh dương về mặt màu sắc, và cường độ của sự phát quang này đã được quan sát là gia tăng tương ứng với suy nghĩ sâu sắc hoặc cảm xúc tột độ.

Trước sự vận chuyển tới Trái Đất, SCP-001-SƯ đã dược phát hiện trên một hành tinh mà nó nhận dạng là 'Đơn Sao' , where it claims to have served as a scholarly figure of great renown. According to its own testimony, the primary subject of SCP-001-SƯ's study was the phenomenon designated by the Foundation as SCP-001. Following the failure of the Single Star government to formulate a countermeasure to SCP-001, however, SCP-001-SAGE placed itself into cryogenic sleep in the hopes that it could be subsequently escape its effects¹.

Evidence suggests that, originally, members of SCP-001-SAGE's species would boost their own intelligence by telepathically interfacing with others of their kind. However, as SCP-001-SAGE is now the only extant member of said species, it has demonstrated great difficulty in tasks that require assimilating new ideas or expanding upon existing knowledge.

Phụ lục 001-SAGE-01 (Interview Log):

The following is a transcription of an interview between the Administrator and SCP-001-SAGE shortly before activation of the Singular Conceptual Bunker (SCB). As the Administrator's unique properties provide defense against telepathic assault as well as physical, he was able to approach at a close distance without being put at risk.

<Begin Log>
(The Administrator enters the containment chamber. SCP-001-SAGE has positioned itself in the center of the room.)
Administrator: Hello there.
(Upon sighting the Administrator, SCP-001-SAGE flares with an intense blue light, disrupting recording equipment for several seconds.)
SCP-001-SAGE: Counterbalance.
Administrator: You're well-informed. Mind if I take a seat?
(Pause.)
SCP-001-SAGE: Take a … yes, I see. Yes.
(The Administrator sits cross-legged across from SCP-001-SAGE.)
Administrator: (grunting) Thanks much. I'm the Administrator. Do you have a name?
(SCP-001-SAGE glows intensely.)
SCP-001-SAGE: My name is a sequence of lights and movements your body configuration is not capable of. Here, I am called SCP-001-SAGE. That is correct, isn't it?
Administrator: If you're fine with it.
SCP-001-SAGE: Yes. It does not matter.
(Pause.)
Administrator: Is there a way?
SCP-001-SAGE: A way?
Administrator: A way to stop it. The Black Moon.
SCP-001-SAGE: Yes. You already know there is a way.
Administrator: You're reading my mind?
SCP-001-SAGE: Your mind is screaming at me. I could hardly ignore it if I wanted to.
(Pause.)
SCP-001-SAGE: S … C … B … Is that it? What is it?
(Pause.)
Administrator: (quietly) Victory. But it will take a very, very long time. I don't know if I can … I've waited so long already. I'm very tired.
(Pause. The Administrator wipes his brow.)
Administrator: There are people who've loved me, I think. Were there people who loved you?
SCP-001-SAGE: Yes.
Administrator: We've left them all behind to end up here.
(Pause.)
SCP-001-SAGE: Yes.
Administrator: (hoarse) I don't know how much more I can leave behind.
SCP-001-SAGE: Then give the Counterbalance to another.
(The Administrator looks up at SCP-001-SAGE.)
Administrator: How do you know about it? The Counterbalance?
SCP-001-SAGE: Once, there was one with that on my planet. A mighty hero — but, as you, he grew tired. He set sail to another world, to hand off his burden. As I imagine it was handed to him. As I imagine his successor handed it off. A great chain spanning across the universe.
Administrator: It was given to me by an old man.
SCP-001-SAGE: Then he did not do as he should have. Will you?
(Pause.)
Administrator: I know how to win. I could just tell someone, give it to them.
SCP-001-SAGE: You could. You could give it to me.
Administrator: (sighs) But I can't trust anyone else with it. (laughs) I'm a notorious micromanager, you see — besides, it's not all it's cracked up to be. The Black Moon's still gonna kill me, it'll just kill me last.
(Pause.)
Administrator: I'm sorry.
SCP-001-SAGE: Do not be. From the moment thought is born in a species, the Watching takes note of them — from then on, it is a matter of time. I have long since surpassed my own judgement.
(Pause.)
SCP-001-SAGE: You say it will take time. How much time?
Administrator: Have you ever … have you ever looked at the sky as night fell, and watched the stars appear?
SCP-001-SAGE: No … but I understand what you mean.
Administrator: I'm going to see them go away for good.
(Pause.)
SCP-001-SAGE: What good will victory do then?
(The Administrator gets up and goes to leave. SCP-001-SAGE again flares with an intense blue light.)
SCP-001-SAGE: Counterbalance! What good will victory do then?
(The Administrator turns and stares at SCP-001-SAGE for several seconds.)
SCP-001-SAGE: I see. How blasphemous of you. Hopefully it works.
(The Administrator leaves.)
<End Log>

Immediately following this interview, the Administrator proceeded to the Singular Conceptual Bunker and entered it, leaving instructions for the Foundation to be run by a newly formed O5 Council in his indefinite absence.

Phụ lục 001-SAGE-2 (Incident Report):

On 01/05/5011, SCP-001-SAGE was observed to suddenly flare with an intense blue light and speak the words:

Hopefully. Hopefully.

Immediately following this, SCP-001-SAGE was converted into a solid black substance which disappeared four seconds later. Obliteration by SCP-001 confirmed. Reclassification to Neutralized pending.

When consulted on this matter inside the SCB, the Administrator only indicated that he would be providing no further guidance, and that the SCB should be loaded onto the experimental memorial module at the first available opportunity. Information on this project is available in the attached file.

Footnotes

1. Note that, as the failure of the New Mexico Long Sleep (NMLS) project indicates, cryogenic sleep provides no defense against SCP-001, suggesting that SCP-001-SƯ's survival was a matter of chance more than any other factor.
