SCP CLASSIFICATION

Containment Classes

SCPs can be classified by the level of "danger" or "usefulness". Each SCP can be divided into certain classes:


Safe

These are SCPs that are really easily contained or that require very few resources to do so. However, they may still be dangerous, but can still be stopped with ease.

Euclid

These SCPs have a medium-level difficulty of containment, although most of the times this does not come from it being too dangerous, but from not being sufficiently understood or predictable.

Keter

These are SCPs that require high amount of resources to contain them or that haven´t yet been contained. The problem normally comes from a lack of a certain type of resource required to trap them. In contrast to the safe SCPs, they can aswell not be dangerous, just difficult to contain. Harmless teleporting SCPs are an example of this.


Thaumiel

SCPs whose main purpose is to counteract or contain other SCPs.

Neutralized

These are anomalies that have already been disabled either accidentally or intentionally.

Apollyon

Almost uncontainable SCPs who tend to breach confinement often. Most of them are usually the cause of world-ending catasrophies(referred to as K-Class scenarios) and require almost unachievable amounts of resources to get them into containment.

Anomalous

SCPs with the lowest threat level, being easier to contain even than the Safe class ones.

Archon

These SCPs are intentionally not contained as they produce a positive effect on the world, and that could result in catatrophic scenarios if disabled.

Other classification procedures

SCPs can also be classified into other sub-groups which don´t refer to the containment difficulty but to other statystics they may have. Some examples of these are:
  • Clearance levels: who has access to information regarding a certain SCP.
  • Disruption classes: How many people/how big of an area would be disrupted by the SCP(which does not only mean damages).
  • Risk classes: How anomalous the effects the SCP has are.
  • Threat levels: How much potential damage can this SCP cause.

SCP-469/MANY WINGED ANGEL

Class:  Keter. Type:  Entity. At first glance, SCP-469 appears to be a gargantuan pile of white feathers measuring 8.84m (29ft) in diameter and weighing several tons. Upon closer inspection however, subject is actually a vast array of enormous white avian wings, tightly curled up into a dense mound. Each wing varies in size and span, ranging from a few centimeters to several meters, but all are covered with glossy white feathers. X-rays have revealed the wings to possess a hollow bone structure underneath similar to other birds, though these bones are very soft and flexible, allowing the wings to bend and coil up at angles other birds, and indeed other vertebrates, are incapable of. At the center of the mass is a large humanoid creature, curled up into a fetal position, to which all the wings are attached to by its spine. SCP-469 seems to feed exclusively on sounds and sound waves, using the energy gained from sound to grow newer and bigger wings and feathers. The louder the sound an

SCP-610/THE FLESH THAT HATES

Class: Keter. Type: Entity. Initial reports of SCP-610 came direct from the Russian government through undisclosable channels. These reports consisted primarily of disappearances of farmers in the region and were not considered until the local police, followed by the regional police, and finally a government dispatched agent all failed to report in within a 72 hour period. A small military contingent was dispatched to the area and quickly withdrew at which point The Foundation was contacted to investigate. The area SCP-610 affects is close to Lake Baikal in Southern Siberia. Areas of known infection are marked on a map provided to us here. Containment perimeters are marked in blue surrounding these infection areas and as of present no further locations have been identified. Incursions into the perimeter must be reported prior to conducting, confirmed during exploration, and debriefed on immediately following return. SCP-610 appears to be a contagious skin disease at first with symptoms
