SCP Foundation

So, I started writing this scip last May 14 this year, but didn't end up makng a drafts thread until just this late September cause I was busy at work and had a ton of personal issues.

• Here's the link to the brainstorming thread (which is the original concept).
• Here's the link to the drafts and critiques thread.

Very nice, a simple idea that was fun to read, enjoyed it greatly.

It’s pretty similar to SCP-1152, but there’s just enough grisly detail to distinguish this one. Two things stood out to me — the revision in the collapsible contributes nothing, and the log with the D-Class is too short to effectively characterize them or make me sympathize with them.

"However, this only takes effect when the interacting human has no prior knowledge regarding this anomalous property."

So to be clear, they act like humans until you learn that there's an anomaly and then they resume acting like pigs?

I think the collapsible should be scrapped. It's a dud.

Subject emits human screams. Removed tail resembles the gluteal sulcus muscle found in humans. Further analysis indicates physiological similarities with tails of non-anomalous pigs.

Decently written. Love the fridge horror!

I like how there are so many ways this can be interpreted, and conflicting resolutions to each one. The vague sentence "However, this only takes effect when the interacting human has no prior knowledge regarding this anomalous property" (what is "this"?) adds to the confusion.

1. There is a memetic hazard causing people to see pigs as people. Maybe created by an anomaly-possessing animal rights group? We should treat this as any other memetic hazard.
2. There is a reality-bending hazard that causes pigs to become conscious. We should contain the spread with high priority, and contain all the affected pigs and make sure their human rights are respected.
3. There is a memetic hazard that causes people to perceive others as pigs. Perhaps released by cannibals or meat manufacturers. It doesn't seem to be done that well, since the Foundation can tell they're still people in pig form. We should contain the memetic threat, and in the mean time spread propaganda to ensure pigs are treated humanely (wait.. is that why so many religions ban eating pork?)
4. There is a reality-bending hazard that causes people to turn into pigs, in body if not in mind. We should contain the spread with high priority, and contain all the affected pigs and make sure their human rights are respected.
