 Security Warning The SCP-2111 Registry and all associated files are components of the Foundation's memetic security systems. These files contain lethal cognitohazards and means and should not be accessed by unauthorized personnel. Access to the SCP-2111 Registry in a database is restricted to the memetics department use only. Collect your HMCL supervisor for further information. SCP-2111 Red Talisman This file and all associated documents are for memetics department eyes only. If you can read this, you have undergone Phase 3 counter-memetic training. If you are not authorized to view this and are able to, you have been infected with a medic kill agent with an average lethal onset of 37 minutes. Refer to your RA-ISA supervisor immediately. Item number SCP-2111 Object Class C Special Container Procedures Access to the SCP-2111 data is restricted to personnel with 3-slash-2111-slash-Red Talisman clearance with the current Phase 3 counter-memetic battery certification. Data is to be only accessed or viewed through the Red Talisman interface. Unauthorized personnel who access the files are to be detained, treated for exposure to lethal cognitohazards and memetic content, and either amnesticized or terminated at the discretion of RA-ISA. This file is to be protected with a SNARK Hunt Disinterest Discussed Memetic Agent, in addition to standard network security measures. Description SCP-2111 is an algorithm capable of generating an infinite number of novel lethal cognitive hazards. The algorithm was derived by the Foundation from analysis of multiple unrelated cognitohazardous anomalies and adapted for the creation and maintenance of lethal cognitive weapons used for information and physical security, as well as memetic packages for behavior modification vectors. Red Talisman is the software-based tool that deploys raw material generated by SCP-2111 into weaponized media. Red Talisman can generate direct visual or auditory cognitohazards, as well as insert hazardous material into memetic carriers. SCP-2111 functions by anomalous means, currently theorized to have access to forms of mathematics that create destructive processing loops when translated into neurological systems. SCP-2111 Red and Tongue This file and all associated documents are for Anti-Memetic's Division I's only. If you are able to remember reading this, you have received MY Conditioning and are currently undergoing Class-W Amnestic Treatment. If you are not authorized to view this and are able to, you have been infected with an Anti-Memetic Remote Amnestic Agent. Item Number SCP-2111 Object Class Euclid Special Container Procedures Belief in SCP-2111 as an algorithm controlled by the Foundation is to be maintained within the memetics department, and its assumed role as a memetics department administrative asset is to be maintained within the foundation of the whole. Programming software has been put in place to ensure that SCP-2111 activity does not occur outside this directory. The size of this directory is to be monitored, and significant changes are to be reported to the Division Chief. SCP-2111-1 instances are to be documented and then removed by Division personnel embedded in Facilities and Maintenance whenever discovered. This file is to be protected by a Type-3 N-Line Invisibility Anti-Meme, in addition to standard network security measures. Description SCP-2111 is a phenomenon in which a directory in the Foundation database spontaneously generates files containing both lethal cognitive hazards and anti-memetic content. These files are often of novel types, and generate at an average rate of 80 kilobytes per month. Occasionally, and unpredictably, some of these files would be spontaneously deleted. Redden Tongue is a software-based tool that skims these files for raw material for Foundation use, sanitizes it for security threats, and then feeds it as raw data to the memetics department's Red Talisman software. The first SCP-2111 file appeared on April 21st, 1981. It was heavily encrypted, protected by a Type-4 anti-memetic trigger, and appeared to originate from within the Foundation. Within three hours, before Division personnel could decrypt it, it was edited and replaced with a file containing lethal cognitive hazards and anti-memetic content. SCP-2111-1 is a phenomenon where graffiti appears spontaneously in Foundation facilities. This graffiti is painted in non-anomalous materials, sourced from the nearby environment. SCP-2111-1 instances are constructed as Type-4 anti-memetic triggers, and are imperceptible except via a combination of MY conditioning and amnestics. Type-4 anti-memes cause single-target short-term enterograde amnesia, resulting in an inability to consciously perceive the subject. This graffiti typically is one of two types. 73% contain an exhortation to read this directory, such as, read SCP-2111, while the remainder contain a variable message. Characteristic examples follow.

Number SCP-2111 Object Class Keter Special Containment Procedures SCP-2111 is currently uncontained. All personnel undergoing amnestic treatment are vulnerable. Personnel are to be monitored for sudden memory loss and, in the event of a suspected attack by SCP-2111, Class B amnestics are to be administered immediately. All Task Force Epsilon-7, forget-me-nots, is to continuously monitor and disrupt civilian development of amnestics. The memetics department's Red Talisman Program is to be monitored for external influence and Revenant Theory is to be enacted in the event a threat is detected. Instances of golf-classed lifts in Foundation facilities are to be documented and removed by division personnel embedded in facilities and maintenance whenever discovered. This file is to be secured with Bravo Class Counter-Conceptual Camouflage, in addition to standard network security measures. Description SCP-2111 is a hostile, anti-memetic entity that targets personnel under the effect of long-term amnestic drug treatment. Victims suffer significant long-term retrograde amnesia, losing between 3 months and 21 years of memory. Due to memory loss, no survivors have been able to describe the entity or the attack. Immediate treatment with Class B amnestics has been shown to halt end-progress attacks. The first known victim was Dr. Victoria Taylor, a Foundation researcher with the Counter-Conceptual Division. Researcher Taylor's memories were regressed shortly after being recruited by the Counter-Conceptual Division in 1974. Researcher Taylor's last known work was on an object originally classified as SCP-2111. After publishing the SCP report on April 21, 1981, all of her work on the object was corrected by unknown means and replaced with lethal cognitohazards and anti-memetic content. Personnel who had read the report in the three hours that was available recollect that it described preliminary research into an anti-memetic Info War of a previously unknown type. SCP-2111 attacks affect personnel directly, consistent with known Info War's mechanisms, as well as leaving cognitohazardous and anti-memetic glyphs on wall surfaces near intended victims. These traps are protected by golf-class Counter-Conceptual camouflage and are therefore only visible to personnel undergoing amnestic treatment. Golf-class Counter-Conceptual camouflage disrupts the ability to retain the focal object in short-term memory, resulting in an inability to consciously perceive the subject. At least 36 division personnel have suffered attacks by SCP-2111. The last direct attack attributed to SCP-2111 was on March 1, 1994. While camouflage glyphs are still being detected, they no longer contain any dangerous effects. It is currently unknown if SCP-2111 is still active, or if the ongoing golf-class creation is the result of unrelated phenomenon. Three months following the incident with researcher Taylor, the Foundation's memetic department claimed the SCP-2111 directory in the database and began mining it for the Red Talisman weaponized cognitohazard program. Report researched by the Counter-Conceptual Division into the relationship between SCP-2111 and the memetic department is ongoing. A contingency plan, codenamed Revenant Theory, has been developed in the event that it is determined that the memetic department has been compromised by SCP-2111. Revenant Theory will insert a complex memetic agent into the Red Talisman user interface. The Revenant Theory agent is a carrier for a broad-spectrum antimemetic counter-agent, as well as a targeted meme complex that enhances organizational loyalty and personal guilt. This will trigger institutional witch-hunt within the memetic department, starting with those most likely to be exposed to any contamination. SCP-2111, read this. If you can read this, you are already dead. You probably got here by reading or writing on the walls, but regardless of how you found us, welcome to the most clandestine unit in the Foundation, Mobile Task Force Omega-Zero, ORA-URN. You probably have already noticed that you have access to everything in the database. Nothing is redacted, a knowledge memetic and antimemetic security content no longer has any effect on you, and you are getting worried that you might need to report to RAISA. This isn't an error. The veils of the mortal world have merely been lifted from your eyes. I regret to inform you that you have died in a line of duty. Take a minute to let this news actually get through the denial. What you are now is still a matter of debate. Demometics wonks think that we are beta-remgent, infomorphic entities in a new sphere, whereas the parapsychologists say we are type-6 volitional spiritual apparitions. Wherever we are, we are here, and unable to disperse and move on to a higher plane of existence, or reach a state of maximum entropy, or whatever we are supposed to do. Here's what we do know. We are able to perceive memetic and antimemetic threats that the living cannot, and sometimes we can do something about them. This is MTF Omega-Zero's mission. You can manifest anywhere they're the terminal connected to this database, as though you are sitting at the terminal. Whenever the living try to perceive our communications, it comes across laden with antimemetic amnestic effects at minimum, and is often cognitohatratus. Somehow the memetics department managed to convince themselves that they are creating all this stuff. They used it to make the security glyphs and memes you knew and loved when you were alive. You can ride on walls by staring at security camera feeds and being really emotionally invested in your message. We don't know why this works. Don't do this unless we tell you. We've figured out how to pretty safely use this to direct the newly dead here. Warn the antimemetics division about stuff they should be paying attention to, and that's about it. The foundation is two separate secret divisions for antimemetic operations, and both of them have managed to make everyone else forget they exist, including each other. These guys have training and drugs that let them perceive some of the stuff we are doing. Be careful. Yes, you probably can't go see what SCP-055 really is now, don't. Everyone who has tried never came back. Sometimes we go bad. We want you to know what we'll do to you if you do. Item number SCP-2111 Object Class Neutralized Special Container Procedures SCP-2111 has been eradicated by Mobile Task Force Omega-0, or URIN. Future manifestations of SCP-2111-like entities are to be identified and destroyed. SCP-2111 was Foundation Agent Michelle Yu, killed in the line of duty on October 23, 1980, while no Omega-0 personnel are able to recall events between their deaths in April 21st, 1981. It is theorized that SCP-2111 was attacking the memories of Foundation personnel during its time. On April 21st, 1981, Counter-Conceptual Division Researcher Victoria Taylor published a preliminary report on these attacks as SCP-2111. Shortly thereafter, the entity identifying as Agent Yu first manifested here in the SCP-2111 database and modified to file, see below. This act appeared to trigger the ongoing manifestation of other entities identifying as deceased personnel in the database. These entities are free-willed informational constructs operating on a currently unidentified substrate. Hypotheses include the human noosphere, the astral plane, and the quantum informational level of spacetime. This database appears to act at the focal point around which the entity's consciousness is able to coalesce, in a manner analogous to a Type-2 localized apparitional haunting. SCP-2111's modified entry Item number SCP-2111 Object Class Keeter Special Container Procedures Forget about me. Why can't you? I just want to go. Why can't you just grieve and move on? Description. SCP-2111 is nothing, it's not important, not dangerous, and doesn't exist. I don't want to be here anymore. Just forget about Michelle Yu and let her be dead, please. All that is left is the story of me, when the self is gone. My story should only be a memory now. Why isn't it? You remember me too well. Wait, how many of us are there? Dozens now? We don't belong here. It isn't right to keep us here like this. You remember me? You remember that I was a fighter? You remember that I was smart? That I was strong? That I was brave? You remember that I'd never let anybody get away with anything that I could do something about? You remember what I was like when I was angry? That you should know now that I am pretty damn angry and there is something I can do about it. SCP-2111 believed that deceased Foundation personnel were trapped by the artificially solid memories of personnel who knew the deceased personally in life, resulting from long-term treatment with amnestic drugs. She began to target those individuals in both the Antimemetics and Counter-Conceptual Divisions, who had personally known her in life with Antimemetic and Cognito Hatter's attacks aimed at killing those who remembered her, or erasing their memories. Additionally, at least one attack targeted O5-8. SCP-2111 gradually built a following of deceased personnel and taught them the techniques to create and deploy these attacks. Many of their victims had experienced a memetic and antimemetic warfare. After manifesting in the database, several of these personnel bore mobile Task Force Omega-0. It was theorized that SCP-2111 would not be immune to antimemetic attacks created specifically by similar entities. A versatile tool capable of precise editing or deletion of entities of this type was designed. Identity Warfare Training, IWT On March 10, 1994, Mobile Task Force Omega-0 operatives used IWT to delete SCP-2111 from existence as an informational entity. It was determined that regardless of the medium that we are stored on, all of SCP-2111's bits were zeroed by this attack. Subsequently, all of our followers either surrendered or were erased. Those that surrendered were edited in a loyal compliance with MTF Omega-0's mission and all memory of their involvement with SCP-2111 was deleted. You are hereby directed by MTF Omega-0 Command. Muster up or enter your information into the file Omega-Zulu Roster. Check your email. The server has been redirected to store it here in the SCP-2111 directory. Keep all Omega-0 communication inside this directory. That way our still-quick comrades are safe and we aren't rocking the boat any further by making scary files where they aren't expected. You will receive training in IWT, a body of techniques for self-defense and warfare against informational entities. If you prove adept at this, you'll see direct action against informational threats to humanity. If not, you'll have a support role. Either way, you will continue to serve the Foundation. Remember, we are the saints who guard. Amos Sanchez, Operations Director, MTF Omega-0
