Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be constantly monitored by deployments of Extradimensional Task Force Beta-15 ("Lost Wanderers"). Readings and measurements made by the paranormal community and academia are to be monitored for evidence of SCP-XXXX, and edited accordingly. The development of interdimensional technology capable of reaching or detecting SCP-XXXX by non-Foundation parties is to be stifled and sabotaged by Foundation agents.
Attempts are to be made to contact Groups of Interest for information on or pertaining to SCP-XXXX (Groups with extensive knowledge on topics beyond our reality are to be prioritized in this endeavour).
Description: SCP-XXXX is a massive extradimensional entity discovered by the Foundation on 23/01/2056. Observations by ETF Beta-15 have shown it be moving in a circular motion directly above our reality. Due to the nature of its location, SCP-XXXX's true physical appearance is unknown. However, Beta-15's Reality Simulation Suits1 generally translate the appearance of the entity into one with avian characteristics.
The reason as to why SCP-XXXX is currently circling our reality is unknown, and all inquiries to alternate iterations of the Foundation on SCP-XXXX have gone unanswered. In fact, all messages sent to other iterations of the Foundation have not been answered, and are believed to have not been delivered in the first place. In such an absence of information, Dr. Hugh Finner, the Regional Head of the Department of Extradimensional Studies, has been assigned the task of investigating SCP-XXXX.
Addendum XXXX.1: Dr. Hugh Finner's Journal
I've just been assigned to SCP-XXXX. Honestly surprised they decided to assign me out of all people to this. They haven't attached me to anything since I became Regional Head. Still, I'm glad to have something new to study.
What we know about SCP-XXXX:
- Looks like a bird
- Not from our reality
- Currently circling our reality
- Hasn't attacked our ETFs
Not a lot to go on, but it's something. Gonna send in a request for Beta 15 to get in closer. That'll take a while to get processed, though.

Request to B15 finally went through. You'd think with us being able to go beyond our reality we'd have a better communications system. They're gonna send me the log later. From what I've seen, it doesn't look like SCP-XXXX will be hostile to them. If anything, it seems like it's waiting for something, like it's just pacing around the place.
Had a dream last night. There was a bird. That's all I remember.
Addendum XXXX.2: ETF Beta-15 Deployment Log
B15 Deployment Video Log Transcript
Date: ██/██/████
Exploration Team: Extradimensional Task Force B-15 "Last Wanderers"
Subject: SCP-XXXX
Team Lead: B15-Alpha
Team Members: B15-1 / B15-2 / B15-3 / B15-4 / B15-5
B15-Alpha: Alright, comm check?
B15-1: Check.
B15-2: All good.
B15-3: Gimme a sec…
B15-4: Check.
B15-3: Ok, check.
B15-5: Coming through crystal clear.
B15-Alpha: Perfect. Command, are we clear to go?
Command: All clear.
[Beta-15 deploys from Area-54 and successfully materializes outside of baseline reality. The Task Force's Reality Simulation Suits activate as they begin to approach SCP-XXXX. The RSSs simulate the surrounding area as land barren of any vegetation or wildlife.2]
B15-3: Been a while since we've seen big birdie, hasn't it?
B15-4: What do y'all think it is? Maybe it has something to do with all the chaos back down on Earth?
B15-2: All of that started long before we detected SCP-XXXX roaming out here.
B15-3: Yeah, I doubt this thing has anything to do with what happened to Four's home state.
B15-4: I thought we said we wouldn't talk about Tex-
B15-Alpha: Quit the radio chatter, we're getting close.
[SCP-XXXX's "beak" opens up and releases a mass of unknown matter. A portion of the matter nears Beta-15. The RSSs translate the matter into sound, which Beta-15 hears as bird calls.]
[Beta-15 reaches SCP-XXXX after travelling for approximately 5 minutes.]
B15-5: Holy- You guys smell that?'
B15-2: Jesus fucking Christ, yeah. Smells like death.
B15-3: God, big birdie needs a bath.
Command: One, see if you can't make physical contact with SCP-XXXX, or collect one of its… "feathers."
B15-1: Roger.
[B15-1 slowly approaches SCP-XXXX, holding out her hand. B15-1's hand makes contact with what would correlate with SCP-XXXX's right thigh. As SCP-XXXX circles around reality, B15-1 follows to maintain contact.]
B15-3: Are the feathers soft, One?
B15-1: I'm wearing a full-body suit, Three. How would I kno-
[As B15-1 spoke, SCP-XXXX turned its "head" around to face her. Interrupting her, SCP-XXXX reaches down and grabs B15-1 with its "beak". It quickly swings its head around to the other side, flinging B15-1 back into our reality.]
B15-4: Oh shit, you seeing this, Command!?
B15-Alpha: Command, advise.
Command: Disengage and return to home.
B15-2: Shit, gladly!
Foreword: B15-1 was recovered in a Biohazard Clearance Zone in the former country of Russia. After decontamination, B15-1 was returned to Area-34 with no further incident.
Nothing new. Well, nothing useful. At least we know it smells like death and reacts to stimuli. I hope -1 recovers well. Gonna need some time to figure out what to do next.
What we know:
- Looks like a bird
- Not from our reality
- Currently circling our reality
- Hasn't attacked our ETFs Can be provoked
- Sapient Sentient
I wonder if those GoIs have responded to our inquiries?
And why aren't our counterparts responding to us?
Another dream last night. The bird was black.

Tactical Theology sent in a report for the bird. Something about linking it that big biblical bird, the Ziz. It was well-intentioned, but it's not helping me. Just giving me more what-ifs. I'll scrap it for now.
New dream. The black bird was flying. Why does it always have to be a bird….
