Lore Name: Liver Rank: Junior Researcher SCP: 1048 Question / Idea: Provided access to human subjects, does SCP-1048 exhibit preferences for different body parts for the use of creating instances of SCP-1048-X? Background Research: Two of the prior occurrences of SCP-1048 creating additional anomalies used biological material taken from foundation researchers. SCP-1048-C may have been created due to a lack of opportunities to procure biological material. Hypothesis: I believe SCP-1048 finds specific components of the human body more appetizing when attempting to create a "copy" of itself. Usage of a human fetus, assuming SCP-1048 manually removed it, is a labor intensive process. Usage of ears, fingers, or toes would be more discreet and quicker to take from the unconscious host. Logically, SCP-1048 found the fetus more fit for its task than any other body part. Observations: Upon the introduction of three restrained D-class personnel to the testing chamber containing SCP-1048, SCP-1048 approached each in turn, exhibiting affectionate behavior for nearly two minutes before one of the D-class personnel fell unconscious. At this point, SCP-1048 approached the unconscious person person and pulled on its ear, removing it in one motion. The ear was removed from SCP-1048's possession and D-class personnel were administered amnestics and medical attention before their return to D-block. Evidence/Visual Stimuli: N/A Analysis / Conclusion: The ear that SCP-1048 took seems to have been removed cleanly, regardless of the method of its removal. This is a nearly identical situation to the prior incident at site 24. I believe that SCP-1048 possesses a sort of memetic "lullaby" effect used to render its victims helpless while it takes source material for the creation of more copies of SCP-1048. SCP-1048 also appears to prefer ears when fetuses are not present. Further testing may be necessary to determine SCP-1048's preferences when presented with ear-less D-class personnel or pregnant women. A greater volume of tests is also necessary to ensure that our conclusion can be supported statistically. Was Your Hypothesis Correct?: My hypothesis appears correct, although I would like to hold an interview and a series of tests to more emphatically provide my colleagues with certain results.

Lore Name: Arthur Rank: Junior SCP: 1048 Context: This is a interview answered by jumps(Yes) and crouches(No) Arthur: Hello 1048 lets go in your room to start the experiment. Arthur: Do you plan on using anything else but ears to create one of your brothers? 1048: *Crouches* Arthur: Why do you use ears only? Is it because its a plentiful source? 1048: *Jumps* Arthur: If you were ever damaged would you use ears to repair yourself? 1048:*Crouches* Arthur: I think this conducts our interview.

Please make sure suggestions are pertinent and relevant! What you want to see? - I want to see SCPs be recontained in ways that make more sense for example 035s recontainment is simply a termination when he only have 300 health and 50 armor making it very easy to do and a melee weapon with not too much capability for killing when being shot at as well and scps like 1048 have this problem as well they can't really do much to avoid containment since their recontainment is so simple and their health is so low basically theres a number of SCPs that are recontained too easily or are rarely given the chance to use what their ability is suppose to be limiting a lot of rp as well these include (1048, 1048-A, 035, 1245-2) These SCPs just seem too easy to deal with for how little rp they cause which makes them kinda lack luster to use and even for the people who would rather just kill their capabilities in causing chaos aren't that high either 1048 is probably the worst in this case because you need to gather ears just to make 1048-A which is just as easy to recontain and he has very low health which makes sense but his termination happens basically 9/10 times after taking an ear and 1048-A has the same problem but slightly less as he has a weapon but its not too effective with the rule limiting him to using it every 5 minutes which is part of what makes him so useless and 035 has 300 health and 50 armor but again hes simply terminated and his weapon is decent but its still a melee which is easily avoided and his actual ability is nice but he has mediocre chance of getting control of someone who is usually too busy shooting him to realize which leads to another problem right there he can't really pull off possing anyone whos already shooting at him without telling them hes doing it and by then hes lost half his health half way to recontainment, 1245 has barely any damage and hes basically a down graded 682 because of having less health and damage but essentially the same purpose and game play Why should we add it? - New recontainment methods or buff their health of damage capabilies What are the advantages of having this? - Makes more viable SCP options making the game more fun for those who like playing SCPs as it gives them more unique options Who is it mainly for? - People who play SCPs Links to any content -
