 Item number, SCP-3312 Object Class, Euclid Special Containment Procedures Foundation web crawlers must monitor all forms of social media for any signs of SCP-3312, including video sharing platforms, cloud databases, and chat forums. Links, URLs, and advertisements relating to SCP-3312 are to be neutralized via RR-113 protocols. All needs to ATF are to be logged for future reference. Individuals affected by SCP-3312 are to be administered Class B amnestics under the condition that they are Stage 3 or prior. Individuals in Stages 4 and 5 are to be administered Class A amnestics. Predatory individuals in Stage 6 are to be contained at Site 990. Any individuals experiencing undiscovered stages following Stage 6 are to be apprehended and brought to Site 990 for testing. Description, SCP-3312 is a memetic agent that exists under the false identity of a fan website and induces a compulsion in humans to consume products, media, and content relating to various fan bases detailed below. SCP-3312 is known to have originated from the amateur entrepreneurial group Accelerate the Future, henceforth referred to as ATF, C-Record Log 816, and Proceeding Logs. ATF's current interests have become involved with the anthropomorphic animal enthusiast community, more commonly referred to as the Furry fandom. Previous interests affected by the memetic agent include brand comic books, animated shows produced by and redacted as of 7520 SCP-3312 has adapted to become an info-hazard styled as a furry community-centric website. The current form of SCP-3312 affects an individual in six stages and may only affect individuals with no prior involvement in the furry community. It should be noted that SCP-3312 evolves from a compulsive memetic to a mind-affecting agent past Stage 4. Stage 1 Upon being exposed to SCP-3312, affected individuals will display a peaked interest in anthropomorphic characters in mainstream media, including but not limited to brand mascots, animated cartoons and games, and serial box art. Compulsive effects of SCP-3312 are relatively mild during this stage, and SCP-3312 has been reversed with no side effects in 82% of Stage 1 cases. The first individuals found to be affected by Stage 1 were discovered on 811. Shortly after, Foundation Webcrawlers uncovered the recorded log history of a chat room utilized by ATF. Record log, 816 The conversations within record log 816 are assumed to have occurred five days following the initial creation of SCP-3312. Ollifox I sold 18 shirts today. Ollifox The ones with Olly on them. M. Perry Weird how we have to literally mind-control people to buy shirts with your eye-bleed fox-sona on it. Dylan99 There'll be a dickhole, Perry. M. Perry Honestly, I was having no trouble with commissions before this. Dylan99 That's not even the point of this. Dylan99 You know he doesn't have any friends. Dylan99 He's a furry. Snack attack We're all furries. Dylan99 Literally, only Olly is actually a furry. Snack attack Ha ha, you're right. I'm not touching that junk with a 10-foot pole. Ollifox But I thought Perry was a furry. Ollifox M. Perry No, but they'll drop thousands of dollars on anything even remotely. Ollifox M. Perry Foxy Ollifox Hello, well. Ollifox That was astoundingly bad. Ollifox M. Perry Can't deny it. Ollifox Hasn't one of your guys already bought like six fursuits? Ollifox Not for me. I think that was from someone else. Ollifox Why? Ollifox You know he's gonna go bankrupt, right? Ollifox Yeah, but it's not bad because like Ollifox Who'll probably just try to wear them to work or something, ha ha ha Ollifox What's he gonna do? Kill someone with this fursuit? Snack attack We had people running around in speedos karate chopping each other in the neck last time. Like 12 people died. Ollifox Okay, yeah, but that was last time. Ollifox Furries are soft. Dylan 99 Not really. Ollifox Huh? Dylan 99 You smell. Ollifox Oh, what? Stage 2 Affected individuals will initiate their participation in the furry community. Contributions to the community may be made, including the creation of a fictional anthropomorphic animal character designed to represent oneself, known as a fursona, digital and or traditional art featuring anthropomorphic animals and forum-based role-playing games involving the aforementioned characters. Stage 2 individuals are indistinguishable from non-anomalous members of the furry fandom. It should be of note that characters created by stage 2 individuals closely mirror that of ATF member Ollifox. Stage 3 Affected individuals will actively seek out internet users who openly share negative views on the furry community and introduce them to SCP-3312. The spread of SCP-3312 will increase exponentially when shared by stage 3 individuals. Stage 3 individuals will devote the majority of their time online to ATF's website. Stage 3 individuals' involvement in the furry community will rapidly reach levels of obsession. Notable behaviors of certain stage 3 individuals have been recorded as following. Opening of several dedicated role-playing accounts across several social media platforms. Access of animal costumes averaging at a cost of $$. Introduction of individuals to SCP-3312 via forum posts. Consistent attempts to contact ATF member Ollifox. Attempted creation of a political party concerning the desires of members of the furry community, including the right to wear animal costumes in a formal work environment, the proposal of a national animal-themed holiday, and a continued debate between the legalization or banning of Awu. Recorded arrests following a raid on a known location for parties involving the furry community. Charges made include disturbance of the peace, possession and trafficking of drugs, vandalism and kidnapping. Instances of cult indoctrination at local enthusiast conventions and costume events. Cult practices included sacrifice of redacted in order to, quote, become closer with end quote. Access individuals are currently hospitalized for physical and psychological treatment not pertaining directly to SCP-3312. About 60% of all known shifts into stage 3 occurred on 925. In the days prior, several more recorded logs were uncovered. The conversations within record log 923 are assumed to have occurred 38 days following the initial creation of SCP-3312. Did you hear about that guy who started a party for furries to vote for? Ollifox. Oh cool! Like a political party? Thoticus Prime. I thought that was obvious. Snack attack. That sounds like a bad fucking time if you ask me. Snack attack. Do me a favor and imagine Obama in a fursuit. Amperi. No. Snack attack. What would his persona be? Ollifox. A lion! Snack attack. For real? Dylan 99. Wasn't that party the one that tried to claim furries deserved the inalienable right to wear a fursuit to work? Ollifox. Oh well, that's dumb. I'm sure it was just the anomalous guys. Snack attack. Please Mr. Obama, I'm bloke because the boss won't let me wear my fursuit. Ollifox. Aw, that sounds pretty cute. Ollifox. Imagine your own local cafe having furry baristas. Ollifox. Or like the IRS so people won't be scared of them? Ollifox. Actually that might not help. Amperi. I have a mascot phobia. Dylan 99. I really don't like the sound of that. Dylan 99. I get that you really like furries but they just kind of weird me out. Sorry dude. Ollifox. Oh, okay. Ollifox. Do you want to see my latest t-shirt? Dylan 99. I mean sure. Ollifox. This is my Gamma Blaster Laser shirt. Dylan 99. That's actually pretty cool. Dylan 99. But I'm going to stick to anime. Stage 4. Behavioral development devolves in tandem with shifting verbal communication. All recorded instances have assumed the role of a prepubescent child for the duration of the stage. Stage 4 individuals will be unable to properly attend to their own needs and require outside assistance in order to maintain sustainable decision making. Stage 4 induces a complete devotion to the furry community and, in all cases, has negatively altered relationships between the affected individuals and their finances, social interactions, employment, familial relations, and living situation. Several interviews with families of affected individuals have revealed that communication between them will cease abruptly upon advancing to stage 4. Further interviews have revealed that individuals past stage 4 consider the furry community to be their true family, and will only maintain communication with those who encourage their behaviors. Living conditions of stage 4 individuals have been deemed unfit for any human. Residences undergo a rapid state of dilapidation due to the individual's own unwillingness to tend to anything outside of SCP-3312, including themselves. Induced behaviors have been noted to fall in line with those victims of severe hoarding disorders. 55% of stage 4 individuals have experienced eviction and or homelessness due to their neglect of both themselves and their place of residency. Stage 5. Affected individuals will suffer the delusion that they themselves are an anthropomorphic character and will perpetuate this delusion by any means necessary. Rejection from the non-anomalous community initiates at this stage, and affected individuals will band together. Individual behaviors of certain stage 5 individuals have been recorded as following. Failed intercourse between a stage 5 individual and f***ing predatory animals at the f***ing zoo in Indiana, resulting in injuries to those present. The termination of Annabelle f***ing at F***ing factory, following a hostage situation involving f***ing employees as she proclaimed herself to be, quote, the real f***ing leopard, end quote. Suicides by falling impact, specifically by stage 5 individuals identified with winged organisms. Deaths from heat-related illnesses, 96% of which occurred while affected individuals were in animal costumes. Public assault of ATF member Olyfox. Deaths by firearm, followed by the outlawing of animal costumes in 13 parks. The following logs were recovered following the Annabelle f***ing incident. The conversations within Record Log 1015 are assumed to have occurred 60 days following the initial creation of SCP-3312. Has anyone heard from Dylan lately? Snack attack. Nah. Olyfox. Oh! He just showed me his fersona last week! Olyfox. He was excited, and I think he's a red panda. Snack attack. Lol, BS. Olyfox. Huh? Olyfox. It's not BS. Here. Olyfox. Here's a picture right here. Olyfox. His name is brownie. Snack attack. Lol, BS. Olyfox. No, it's not. Olyfox. Oh. Olyfox. Why don't you guys like my art? Empyre. Oly. We like your art. We just don't like furries. Empyre. At all. Empyre. Like seriously, why do you think we let you make this site for yourself? To make other friends. Empyre. We like you because you can make supernatural advertisements. Empyre. All of your websites you've ever made drag people into them. Empyre. And then those people are used up in two months. Empyre. Staggering around his empty shells of themselves. Empyre. Someone ate a baby last week, Oly. Empyre. Someone ate a goddamn baby. Olyfox. But I only know how to start it, not how it stops. Empyre. You are personally responsible for that jackass eating someone's innocent human baby. Empyre. Do you understand what you've done? Empyre. You've literally created a race of idiot man-eaters. Empyre. These aren't even people anymore. Empyre. These aren't even people anymore, Oly. They're inhuman. You're out of the group. Empyre. Idiot vigilantes are one thing. Idiot monsters are way worse. Olyfox. Here, check out this banner. Empyre. What the hell is that? Stage 6. Affected individuals will undergo a total loss of higher cognitive functions and regress to instinctual behaviors displayed by the source animal of their personal character. All signs of prior personality will be destroyed by SCP-3312. However, affected individuals will continue to possess human speech, albeit characterized by childlike pronunciations and heightened pitch. All test results have yielded that the speech uttered by affected individuals can be likened to animal vocalizations instead of processed human speech. Predatory Stage 6 individuals are highly aggressive towards both affected and unaffected individuals and kill indiscriminately. To date, no Stage 6 individual has shown recognition of those whom they have shared relationships with. Record log. The conversations within record log are assumed to have occurred 234 days following the initial creation of SCP-3312. Record log is the last chat room interaction between members of ATF prior to Stage 4 progression of most members. Olyfox. Hi, everybody. Thoticus Prime. Hi. Snack attack. Yay. Empyre. Olyfox. Aw, Perry, what's wrong? Empyre. You're all terrible. Olyfox. Oh, my God. Olyfox. Honestly, you're so dark and brooding. Olyfox. Dylan99. Waves, pause it, Empyre. Olyfox. At Dylan99, this is in the RP channel. Dylan99. Le... Empyre. I should have left them months ago. Empyre. I hate this channel and I hate you. Empyre. You've made my life a living hell. Empyre. This entire group is practically a hive mind. Empyre. You've taken my life's work, my income, and most importantly, what little social life I had where I was able to share the things I could do. Empyre. There's only one thing that's keeping me from killing myself at this point. Olyfox. Oh. Empyre. My fursuit is in transit. Empyre. The following log is a video transcript of a raid carried out by Mobile Task Force Sierra 88, codename Animal Control, on the residence of Michael Perry in... Oklahoma, identified by the foundation as ATF member Empyre. Footage was recovered from the body cam of Sierra 88, November. Begin log. Rated sound off. This November, reporting to command on behalf of Mobile Task Force Sierra 88. Sierra 88 Bravo, checking in. Over. Sierra 88 Charlie, checking in. Over. We're at the derelict house on the corner at Lakeview and Charlemagne. Time is 1,900 hours. I can't see any movement from the windows. There's a couple of packages here. Looks like they've gone untouched. All are addressed to Perry. November kicks into the door. It gives way with ease. Gags are audible from Bravo as they enter the house. Grime cakes the walls of the windows, dimming incoming light. Bravo and Charlie turn on their flashlights. Got it. Reeks. I can smell the mold in the walls. No signs of life in the living room. Proceed with the kitchen. Can you smell that? What? Mobile Task Force Sierra 88 enters the kitchen. The counters and table are littered with discarded food and prescription pill bottles. November nudges a puddle of crushed packets of cake mix and milk with the barrel of his gun. The puddles lifted from the table having solidified over time. Charlie motions to a window directly across from the overflowing table. It has been smeared with an unknown substance. That's dog shit. I've been sitting here for a while. I can smell it past the rotting fridge. And they're saying someone lives in all this, Phil? What was the stage designation of Perry, sir? They told me four. I'm beginning to think that was a lie. Mobile Task Force Sierra 88 navigates into the hallway with caution. They are notably slowed by the piling debris as they approach what is assumed to be Perry's bedroom. November knocks heavily on the door. Hello, Mr. Perry? Are you home? Shit, he's in there. Mr. Perry, we're going to ask you to lay on the ground with your hands up. Do not make any sudden movements. Failure to comply can and will get you shot. I've won. Come play with me. Sir, I don't think he understands. Let's hope to God he does. Mobile Task Force Sierra 88 breaks down the door and rushes into the room. The room is pitch black and the majority of the surfaces are covered in bodily fluids and mold. The remnants of Perry's computer are dangling off of the desk, now encrusted with unidentifiable substances. The mattress from Perry's bed is shredded and the bed frame splintered. Perry himself is barely visible behind piles of rotting food, soiled clothes, and destroyed furry paraphernalia. He is curled against the corner of the wall wearing a grimy sweater and the torn threads of a costume tail. His hair is greasy and unkempt and his eyes are bloodshot. Light from a flashlight shines onto him. He hisses and crawls to his hands and feet. Mobile Task Force Sierra 88 trains their guns onto him. Despite his circumstances, Perry wears a large grin and wide eyes. Hello? What are you doing? Put your hands in the air where we can see them. Perry crawls forward. He is now visibly shaking, but his expression has remained the same. Sir, comply or we will be forced to shoot you. Please help me, Mr. Bowie's man. Please help. Please help me. Perry abruptly lunges at November and clings onto him. Bravo and Charlie turn and immediately open fire with tranquilizer guns on Perry. The camera lens cracks and the recording footage turns black. Perry's voice can be heard giggling distinctly among the shouting, as well as wet, squelching noises. End log.
