 SCP-463 is a small silver spoon, approximately 17.5 cm in length. Unless handled by a human, SCP-463 displays no abnormal behavior. Neutron imaging, MRI, and the RIP imaging system have revealed no detail to the inner structure. All analysis of SCP-463 is consequently limited to its directly observable effects. Many individuals who pick up SCP-463 have their spines bent backwards at a 90-degree angle, just below the T6-thoracic vertebra. This bending typically proves fatal, although some test subjects have survived with full lower body paralysis.
