Lore Name: Spice Rank: Junior Researcher SCP: 457 Question / Idea: How will he react to someone with heat resistant clothing, how hot is he, as well as his views on killing people and animals. Background Research: I learned that his intelligence scales with his size, and I was thinking that might effect how he terminates his subjects. Hypothesis: SCP-457 Will not be able to terminate D-5823 due to the heat resistant clothing on his body. I am also hoping that he shows some form of personality. Observations (What Happened During Test): The heat resistant clothing did nothing to stop SCP-457's effects, which resulted in the D-class being burned to death. Evidence/Visual Stimuli: That D class burned up pretty good... Analysis / Conclusion (What Could Of Caused The Results): SCP-457 burns people not only through fire on skin contact, but by heating up a certain area. This was also demonstrated when he set one of us on fire through the glass of the containment cell. He also seems to enjoy killing beings, more than objects. he mentioned that he found it amusing. Was Your Hypothesis Correct?: Nope, definitely not

HYPOTHESIS: SCP-457 will stop at nothing to burn all that it is given. This is the very reason why even down to the paint used in his containment is fire-retardant. It will use anything at it's disposal for fuel, giving the foundation an opportunity to utilize SCP-457 as a self-sufficient incinerator with the added functionality of creating and storing energy. ACTIONS TAKEN BEFORE OBSERVATIONS: A Utility Engineer was contacted several days prior to the testing event. Their name will not be included in this document. They were tasked with the objective to design a power conductor to harness the energy created by SCP-457 much like the engine of a car. Additionally, several bits of trash and scrap were set aside (An old shoe, a tire, residual plastic from food-stuffs, and Dr. Bright's chewed mechanical pencil) and one corpse of a deceased D-Class personnel was withdrawn with the intention for being used as fuel. The engine was set up during containment cleaning the day prior to the experiment. PREFACE (FROM █████ ███████ SWAIN(SYNARI)): There have been several efficiency tests conducted with respect to SCP-457 even within recent time. I found it beneficial to the foundation to compile such documents and delve further into the application of SCP-457. If accommodations are made post-experiment there is potential to retire the incinerator and utilize SCP-457 instead. The energy could additionally be used financially, if not to further the site's self-sufficiency. ⚬ Red-Orange text denotes pre-experiment titles and records. ⚬Yellow text denotes context sensitive document specific information. ⚬Blue text denotes experiment yieldings and observations. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ (READERS NOTE: HIGHLIGHTED TEXT IS DEEMED IMPORTANT TO THE DOCUMENT) OBSERVATION A-1: The engine was set up in SCP-457's containment and the fuel was placed within it's proper compartment. SCP-457 was cornered and threatened by fire-extinguishers until it was coaxed into a separate temporary containment where the engine was attached. SCP-457 seems to comply and was very eager to begin being fed fuel. With the door closed, SCP-457 quickly began burning the assorted objects placed within the engine. The objects were observable from the glass window in the side of the engine. Usually these sorts of objects have moderately high melting points and require more energy to burn than to utilize. SCP-457 burned through these undesirable bits of trash with ease. Their melting point was assumed to be an average of 350°F taking modern day incinerators anywhere from 2-5 minutes to reach and maintain. SCP-457 reduced the 'fuel' in the container to smoke in nothing more than 15 seconds. The experiment was reset, and within the container a cadaver was placed. A human cadaver burns anywhere from 1400°F to 1800°F to completion. This is the same temperature used for cremation, and thus SCP-457 would need to reach this internal temperature to burn the subject. It had no issue stripping the corpse to bone within a record time of only 2:31, and finally reducing the bones to ashes about 3 minutes later. CADAVER AND MISC. OBJECT REMAINS: Several fragments from either the cadaver or trash remains. This indicates that this method is not 100% efficient with it's incineration process. REMAINS OF CADAVER POST ORGANIC MELTING: For reference, this image was taken about 4 minutes into the cremation process. As observable, the bones began to atrophy and melt. OBSERVATION A-2: Finally, the D-Class personnel was coaxed into SCP-457's containment and into the engine. Surprisingly, the D-Class considered the test liberating, explaining that he would be more useful in death than he ever was in life. Conceptually, a proper structure would need to be built, and force would required to be used for personnel. Clearing the containment, SCP-457 showed no remorse in using this human as fuel, as if they were the experiment prior. Humans who are still alive have a harder time burning, considering 70% of their bodies are water. It was expected for the personnel to take longer to burn, but be more efficient with it's burning process. This controlled burn took about 8 minutes, yet yielded more energy than the controlled burns previous. This is not ideal however this fact should be noted. ██████ ███ █████ ████ ████ ████████ THE FOLLOWING IMAGE WAS REDACTED: As indicated above, the body burned and followed standard crematory steps. Bodily fluids were evaporated over time, likely attributing to the direct cause of the difficulty of the burn. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION: SCP-457 not only possess the ability to burn 'trash', but additionally can cremate a human (dead or alive). The energy expunged can be harnessed and utilized, alive subjects burning for longer and therefore releasing more energy. With this knowledge, SCP-457 can be better utilized by burning problem personnel and the trash of the facility, in turn supplying the site with a pseudo-renewable energy source or financial boost. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ █████ ███████ SWAIN(SYNARI) RESEARCHER SITE 05, ███████ ██████████████ ALL EXPERIMENTATION IN THIS DOCUMENT CONFORMS TO THE SOP AND HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE HEAD OF RESEARCH.

-Name: Kev P -Rank: Associate Researcher -Clearance Level: 2 -List of personnel involved in testing: AR Kev P, JR Salt and MTF A1 PVT Toasty PI4. -Level D personnel involved: Class D-1458 (20 yo| 5”11’| 75 Kg), Class D-4578 (24 yo| 5”11’| 84 Kg) and Class D-9856 (22 yo| 5”09’| 65 Kg). -SCP: 457 -Errors and/or safety hazards: The most dangerous problem will be a breach, because when he grows up, he is more intelligent and we would have some problems with SCP-457. -Date: 24/08/2019 at 12 AM. -Interviewee: SCP-457. -Interviewer: AR Kev P. -Background Research: For all points and purposes, SCP-457 appears to be a sentient being composed of flame. SCP-457's actual composition is unknown, and has proven to be invisible and undetectable by any known means, but is shaped out by the flames it produces, often assuming a human-like form if given sufficient fuel to assume that size, I’ll try to get more information about him using some more fuel as a gift for him. _____________________________________________________Starts Log_____________________________________________________ AR Kev P: Greetings 457. *SCP-457 almost a little flame* 457: (Silence). AR Kev P: I have your daily Fuel. You can take these D-Class, wood and gas, consume them. 457: (Silence). *I put the fuel in the door, I press the buttom* *SCP-457 consumes it, he is getting big* AR Kev P: You have consumed all this fuel, Can you talk now? Do you understand me? 457: Yes, sir. AR Kev P: How do you feel? 457: Fine. Fuel was helpful. AR Kev P: Well don’t try anything, we’re ready for any attempt of breaching. We will start with some questions about your past-, what is that shelf? 457: My Awards… (Looks to the shelf), skulls of my victims. AR Kev P: That’s Creepy. Where did you get that? 457: (silence). AR Kev P: Sorry but you need to answer, you can’t keep that- 457: everything burns, doctor. *He approaches to the blast shielding* AR Kev P: back off, don’t make me turn on the sprinkler systems. *457 Stays near to the blast shielding* AR Kev P: Okay, Salt turn on the sprinkler systems. *457 Screams loudly and throwing fire from his mouth* AR Kev P: Turn it on!!! *Salt turns on the sprinkler systems* *457 goes back off from the blast shielding* AR: Kev P: Well, No more tricks. I’ll repeat, we will start with some questions about your past. We found you burning some Forests, Why you were burning all those forests? What is your propose? 457: Hungry, then and now… Need more. AR Kev P: Do you remember where you from? 457: I woke up, forest, hungry, I burn. AR Kev P: Can you consume every kind of living thing? Is everything a fuel for you? 457: everything burns when I’m hungry. AR Kev P: When you consume fuel enough, you can clone yourself, how many of you can be? 457: Don’t know, no fuel. AR Kev P: Yes, you know. We saw 2 of you, but you were fighting each other, why?, aren’t you the same entity, are you? 457: More hungry, need fuel, they’re fuel. *He approaches to the blast shielding* AR Kev P: Mmmh, Okay that’s all, sir. Toasty I’ll need some more Security to take that shelf and skulls to medbay we need to check the skulls and don’t forget to turn on the sprinkler systems. _____________________________________________________End of the Log_____________________________________________________ -Observation: SCP-457 was taking care of his shelf, and his extremely dangerous because he is so emotional, he is hungry all the time, I suggest to have sprinkler systems out of CC area on any case of breach, to protect the personal. -Visual Stimuli (Photos/videos): ====> Skull Shelf of SCP-457 -Addendum: We turned on sprinkler systems to weaken SCP-457 and take out the shelf. -Conclusion: The SCP-457 is so dangerous, he can consume fuel and multiply himself when he has consume fuel enough, he doesn’t know his past, we don’t have any clue of his born, we only know that he appears and starts to consume all, he has a lot of insatiable hungry, that makes him unstoppable, he will consume all and multiply, so this is a really dangerous SCP. If you want to do any test on him, be ready for any attempt of breaching and have enough MTF members to control the situation ‘cause he is emotional. We need to see if he is the only one.
