 SCP-412 is an antique silver hand mirror. The mirror has a 4 cm crack in the top left hand corner and has an etched motif of roses and vines. Around % of subjects with a direct line of sight of SCP-412 report a compulsion to pick up the item and view their reflection in it. There does not appear to be a discernible pattern to the… selections. Testing for possible genetic or other selection markers is ongoing. Simultaneous observation and contact with SCP-412 causes the item to connect with the subject, regardless of whether they have been coerced into doing so by SCP-412. Tests using restrained subjects have shown that both actions, touching and viewing the reflection, are necessary for a connection to be made. No means of severing this connection have been found, short of complete isolation for a period of no less than two years.
