SCP-013

Item #: SCP-013

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: So far, SCP-013 has been compliant with most verbal and physical commands and has been allowed to stay in a standard 15 cubic meter reinforced concrete cell built for it on site in [EXPUNGED] along with facilities for appropriate staff. If it does attempt to leave its enclosure, an order such as "Get back" or "No" in a pleasant, calm voice will cause it to return to its original position. Under no circumstances are personnel to raise their voices and attempt to forcibly command SCP-013; in such an event [DATA EXPUNGED] until deceased. No fewer than 20 class D personnel are to be in SCP-013's enclosure at any time [013-1] and those posted there are to remain with heads bowed at all times until relieved by the next shift. These shift changes should take place at 00:00hrs, 08:00hrs, and 16:00hrs.

Description: SCP-013 is generally spherical in shape and measures approximately one (1) meter in diameter with a faintly reflective surface. Subjects that focus on SCP-013's surface report seeing their chosen deity (agnostics claim to instantly have their beliefs in a higher power affirmed and atheists report seeing a depiction of an ever expanding universe). Staff have nicknamed SCP-013 "the all and nothing" as it appears to show every source of creation on record. As of yet, all attempt at documentation via video or still cameras have only produced an image of a metal sphere, leading some researchers to believe the images are psychic in nature.

Addendum: All staff of clearance level 2 or higher should see document #013-1 and brief class D personnel on a need to know basis.

Document #013-1: [worship protocol]

If the required amount of D class personnel cannot be obtained, staff from the next lowest level are to take their place until substitutes can be found. If fewer than 20 "worshipers" are in SCP-013's enclosure, SCP-013 will move toward the nearest wall and through unknown means, create a perfectly circular hole through which it will exit and attempt to find more "worshipers". SCP-013 can easily be contained by surrounding the subject with the required amount of personnel and slowly walking it back to its enclosure. The hole is to be immediately sealed with a patch of steel plating and concrete. Item #: SCP-013

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-013 are to be kept in a Secure Storage Vault at Site-66. Exposed subjects are to be monitored for differences between their symptoms. Exposed subjects are to be interviewed daily, and any changes in perception are to be logged.

Description: SCP-013 is the collective designation of 242 cigarettes which display similar anomalies. The most common external detail between instances is the presence of the words “Blue Lady” hand-written on each cigarette in blue ink.

Subjects who consume the contents of SCP-013 through inhalation will begin to perceive themselves as a specific unidentified woman. Subjects have described the woman to be aged between 25 and 35 years old, standing approximately 1.6 metres tall with an estimated weight of between 50 and 55 kg. Additional recurring details include cropped dark hair, blue eyes, and bright blue lipstick.

Immediately after consuming an instance of SCP-013, subjects will gradually begin to perceive reflections of themselves as having the features of the woman, and will gradually perceive their bodies changing to reflect her appearance over the course of the following weeks. All changes are entirely mental; the subject’s body does not change outwardly, only their perception of themselves. These alterations are permanent, and cannot be reversed.

SCP-013 was discovered after the suicide of an Ian Miles, packed in a large cardboard crate in his apartment. A cursory search of the apartment uncovered several hundred sketches of a figure strongly resembling the one perceived while under 013's effect. Miles' body had been found sitting at a desk, dead of a massive overdose and draped over a handwritten note, transcribed below.

During the investigation of Miles' apartment, one civilian investigator became affected by 013's effect. An embedded Agent soon contacted the nearest Site; the subject, the artifact, and related evidence were extracted and contained.

Currently, two hundred seventeen instances of SCP-013 cigarettes are contained at Bio-Site 66; twenty-five SCP-013 cigarettes are contained at Research Sector-09, pending future research into similar anomalous effects.

Addendum: Below is the note which was acquired along with SCP-013.
