SCP stands for either Special Containment Procedures or Secure, Contain, Protect, which is the SCP Foundations Motto. The SCP Foundation is a large organization specializing in containment of anomalous creatures or objects to protect mankind and to study them to create scientific breakthroughs. They have many different Facilities and containment areas across the world, most of them specializing in containing certain types of anomalous creatures or objects. There are 3 main classes of SCPs, Safe, meaning that the object is either mostly harmless, easily contained or both. Euclid, objects or creatures that are dangerous, have an unknown movement pattern or have some other effect. These aren't as easy to contain as Safe class SCPs, but aren't as hard to contain as Keter class SCPs. Keter, meaning that the object is dangerous to mankind, has powerful mind-control abilities, can cause an XK Class End-Of-The-World Event, can cause a ZK Class Reality Failure event, can extremely rapidly reproduce or regenerate, or have other extremely dangerous effects. These types of SCPs are extremely hard to contain. Anomalous Items or Creatures that are not dangerous or anomalous enough to be an SCP are known as Anomalous Items.
