Study Notes

SCP Object Classes

Safe:
- Anomalies that are easily and safely contained.
- Containment requires minimal resources due to extensive research.
- Specific activation or triggers may pose potential threats during handling.
Euclid:
- Anomalies needing more resources for reliable containment.
- Often insufficiently understood or inherently unpredictable.
- Commonly assigned to SCPs that do not fit other standard classes.
Keter:
- Anomalies that are very difficult to contain consistently.
- Containment procedures are complex and resource-intensive.
- Difficulty in containment may arise from lack of understanding or technological limitations.
- Being Keter does not imply inherent danger; it indicates containment challenges.
Thaumiel:
- Anomalies used by the Foundation to counteract other SCPs or anomalous phenomena.
- Classified at the highest levels; details known only to select personnel, mainly the O5 Council.
Neutralized:
- Anomalies that are no longer considered anomalous.
- Can result from intentional or accidental destruction or disabling of the SCP.
Explained:
- Anomalies that are fully understood and explainable by mainstream science.
- May include phenomena that were previously mistaken for anomalies and have been debunked.
Esoteric/Narrative:
- Object classes that do not fit standard categories and are created for specific narrative purposes.
- Rarely used and require justification; non-standard classes may receive negative feedback from the community.
Decommissioned:
- An obsolete Object Class used to label unwanted articles as examples of poor practices.
- No longer in active use by SCP Foundation staff.
