Project number: SCP-1715
Project level: Euclid
Description: SCP-1715 is an abnormal individual, which will join and integrate into small network groups from time to time, such as exchange forums and wiki databases. SCP-1715 uses different names on each website; However, all the recorded user names have the words "█████" or are related to ███████. All attempts to trace the source of SCP-1715 have failed. At present, it is impossible to determine whether SCP-1715 is an entity that accesses the Internet in a real place or a non-entity phenomenon that only exists in the Internet.
SCP-1715 has a different self-description every time, but has always claimed to be a Caucasian man living in the United States, aged between 15 and 3. SCP-1715 is mainly aimed at small but growing online groups, with themes such as video games, TV programs, music organizations and similar hobbies. SCP-1715 has not joined any non-English-speaking groups yet. SCP-1715 has been proved to be able to appear in as many as 9 websites at the same time; At present, it is unknown whether this is the maximum capacity or just the most examples monitored by the Foundation.
most of the time, SCP-1715 uses proper grammar, spelling, punctuation, and spelling, and only rarely makes mistakes, and shows a wealth of knowledge about the topics of the websites it participates in. Most other members of the network group where SCP-1715 belongs think it is friendly, polite, enthusiastic and helpful. Because of its attractive personality and active participation, SCP-1715 often becomes a respected user in a short time. On several occasions, SCP-1715 was promoted to a senior position by the administrator.
SCP-1715 will begin to show abnormal properties after it becomes a prominent person in the group, most of the time within eight weeks after it is first added. At this point, SCP-1715 will send private messages to other website members, starting with popular users. This information begins with the declaration of making friends, then the forged private life of SCP-1715, and ends with the personal information of the requested recipient. If the user gives real personal information to SCP-1715, the user and their accounts will become SCP-1715-1 and SCP-1715-2 respectively.
within two weeks after replying to the message from SCP-1715, SCP-1715-1 was injured in a serious accident. Circumstances include accidents, murders and suicides. Although these events will basically cause death at the scene, in some cases, the individual SCP-1715-1 is in a coma, brain dead, or disabled in a similar way. Investigations by local law enforcement agencies and foundation agents show that all the deaths are normal and can be explained by evidence. In one example, the investigators of the Foundation found evidence that a person began to plan a murder several years before the victim SCP-1715-1 joined the exchange forum. It is uncertain whether SCP-1715 has a way to influence these events or is looking for people it knows will die.
when an individual of SCP-1715-1 dies or is disabled in a similar way, its corresponding individual of SCP-1715-2 will keep active in its corresponding network group, and publish the content with the same personality and writing technique as that of SCP-1715-1. SCP-1715-2 individuals carry their relative versions of memory until their death, but deny that they are actually dead. SCP-1715-2 has the same theme as its living version, except that they sometimes publish information that can be regarded as referring to its death status.
SCP-1715-2 users will remain active and maintain their status until SCP-1715 announces that they will quit the website. When the event happens, all SCP-1715-2 people will reply to the announcement with blessing and parting words, and then immediately stop all abnormal activities. Outside of its relationship with SCP-1715, there seems to be no upper limit for the time that SCP-1715-2 keeps active: a group keeps active for 11 years, and observes and discusses the contents of Buffy the vampire hunter every day until the website is closed by the foundation personnel.
