Oversimplified SCP - Ch. 145 - SCP-038

[Mah_Buddy_Keith]

Dr. King tests SCP-038. No matter the item he gets showered by apple seeds.

Dr. Nukea:
proceeds to make infinite copies of 17 again

I like that they use that tree to make more of scp-500 (the cure-all pills). It only has a certain success rate but it's still an invaluable source of it.

Dr. Klein needs to be reassigned. This tree is too nice to be locked away like that. Imagine using it to clone prosthetic limbs so someone has spares readily available, or cloning sheep for the sake of cloning sheep. Hell, imagine using it to clone a first edition holographic Charizard card. You'd have TWO first edition holographic Charizard cards, thus making you double cool.

@Werebearguy

living clones only survive for 2 weeks

 

[NamelessSoldier]

It doesn't really mention what happens to the living clones... Are they sane? Sapient?

 

[Goldenzeal]

@Werebearguy

and then it turns out that every cloned item ever made transforms into a monster that kills people after the 10.000th clone is made.
The problem with SCP´s even if they appear useful is that they can easily be misused or secretly be very dangerous even if at first it appears to be safe.
Sure you could use it as a cloning machine, but if it comes with the risk of ending humanity it might not be worth it.

@Eloyas they do use the tree to clone scp 500 and they rarely use the original ones

 

[ladiance]

Simple so far, but best

 

[supersaiyandoyle]

I wouldn't clone money, but I'd definitely clone my expensive MtG cards.

 

[Diamona]

I hope Dr. Bright is banned from approaching the tree.

 

[icantnotthink]

@Goldenzeal I can't remember what it was, but I swear there was an SCP at some point whose gimmick was that it would like... provide pain relieving and mild healing factors to individuals who came in contact with it. As such, some in the Foundation used it to bypass medical leave for MTF. But then deeper in the article, an updated version says that addictive qualities would appear with repeated use. Eventually the individuals would go into a feral rage or start growing pussy welts and die or something.

Living things only survive 2 weeks...


It seems we have a D-Class factory

 

[Cathrain]

Conclusion: Dr. Klein is a tsundere...

 

[Petnavis]

@icantnotthink This one? http://www.scpwiki.com/scp-427

 

[zaji970]

Its been bugging me for a while but the difference between anomalous objects and scp aren't clear. Like the man cursed to be nice was originally an ao before they discovered his other qualities.

 

[Savarizki]

I would clone myself and ranked together.

2 weeks is long enough to get highest rank in most game

@zaji970 SCP has different meaning depending on the context.

1. SCP the foundation and its goal (Secure, Contain, Protect)
2. SCP the protocol (Standard Containment Procedure/Protocol)
3. SCP the designation code (SCP - <id> - <sub id>)

It refer to the staff, designation code of the anomaly, the organization, and the goal of the one that "deals" with the anomaly. Basically the beekeeper, the box that keeps the bee, and the entire bee farm

Anomalous object are any object that were deemed by the SCP Foundation as anomalous, not normal, and can be a problem to general society. Basically the bees and their honey

The same goes for phenomenon, it's an anomaly that doesn't have a physical form. Think of it as a Tornado, it's just a really fast wind spinning very fast.

Both doesn't have to be dangerous, but as long there's a risk, the SCP Foundation aren't willing to give it any chance and so they had to "deals" with it and that is their goal (Secure, Contain, Protect) using their necessary procedure/protocol (Standard Containment Procedure/Protocol). And to prevent confusion of their name, they need a way to name them effectively (SCP - <id> - <sub id>)

@hermitowl it's more easy to get D-class from death ward prison then cloning them with only 2-week expires. However I can see it being used to feed SCP-3000.

 

[BobTheSkrull]

I would imagine cloned people share the same personalities as their originals, which would mean they too have a desire not to be yeeted at 682.
