Special Containment Procedures: An Exclusion Zone has been established around the legal boundaries of SCP-4886. It is surrounded by a 3 meter high chain-link fence.
Nearby residents believe it to be the private property of Agent Jonathan Lancelot; assigned personnel are to act accordingly. An Interior Zone has been established 1 • • • • • • kilometer from the Exclusion Zone's edge, surrounded by a fortified perimeter. Personnel are restricted from entering this Interior Zone outside of deep cleaning operations.
SCP-4886-A's population is managed by Task Force He-2 ("Yogi's Nightmare"). TF-2  is responsible for enforcing existing anti-trespassing measures, as well as neutralizing SCP-4886-A found outside of SCP-4886's Interior Zone (excluding human births, which are to be handled by appropriate medical personnel). Civilians attacked by SCP-4886-A are to undergo Class-A Amnestic treatment under the guise of trauma therapy.
As per the Nexus-56 interaction protocols, the Foundation has taken over Summerstone's law enforcement and parks services agencies. Civilians are aware of SCP-4886-A's existence, and have been encouraged to report sightings through the appropriate channels. Standard disinformation protocols have been implemented.

Description: SCP-4886 is Willinggami Woods, a forest surrounded by the town of Summerstone, Wales. It is a temperate rainforest, with a largely-endemic ecosystem that has been threatened by SCP-4886-A.
SCP-4886-A is the collective designation for animaloid entities found within SCP-4886.
Physiologically, instances are diverse, though many bear a superficial resemblance to members of the phylum Platyhelminthes (otherwise known as "flatworms"). They are aggressive and invasive, having nearly destroyed Summerstone's ecosystem prior to Foundation involvement.
Instances of SCP-4886-A can impregnate animals of sufficient physiological similarity.
This occurs regardless of the animal's sex. Initial surveys found that in roughly 64% of cases, subjects give birth to non-anomalous members of its species; subjects otherwise give birth to an SCP-4886-A instance. Despite this, instances show low fertility levels, intraspecies sterility, and high miscarriage rates unsuitable for its population growth.
Although largely confined to the center of SCP-4886, SCP-4886-A's population will infrequently swell to and beyond its borders.
HISTORY Initial containment began on 18/07/1975 following increased Nexus engagement efforts as part of the Delta-Unseelie project.
Prior to discovery, SCP-4886 had been owned by a succession of private individuals, having traditionally been willed to a protégé of the previous owner. Such owners were traditionally tasked with protecting Summerstone from SCP-4886-A.
At the time, SCP-4886 was under the ownership of Jonathan Geirstein Lancelot, a 24- year-old law enforcement officer that had been willed the property three years prior by the late Anthony Bram Lindell. Mr. Lancelot's familiarity with SCP-4886 and his proficiency in hunting SCP-4886-A proved vital to initial containment efforts, leading to his employment in an official capacity.
Research into the history of SCP-4886 has proven inconclusive; SCP-4886-A appears to have been present for as long as the local population can remember. Attacks, while infrequent enough that few large-scale depopulation efforts were executed, were accepted and expected by local residents.
With the assistance of Agent Lancelot, modern containment efforts were finalized on 21/12/1975.
aar_4886_81989.docs On 06/08/1989, a decision was made to perform a deep-cleaning excursion into SCP-4886, with the intention of discovering and curtailing the primary source of SCP-4886-A's population. This decision was made in the wake of a string of attacks against the population of Summerstone beginning on 01/08/1989.
An instance of SCP-4886-A gnawing on a bone.
These attacks were notable for their complexity, often occurring in locations that SCP-4886-A had not been thought capable of entering (such as private residences).
Evidence suggested that SCP-4886-A had advanced to the point of rudimentary sapience, having demonstrated proficiency in controlled arson, lock-picking, and burglary.
Mobile Task Force Epsilon ("Lights in the Dark") was brought in to assist TF-2  in containment efforts. The joint task force was split into three groups; one was responsible for finding and neutralizing SCP-4886-A's primary source, while the other two dealt with thinning the population.
The primary team (henceforth referred to as H2E1) consisted of the following personnel: Agent Jonathan Lancelot: Head of TF-2 . Experience in law enforcement and game hunting, grew up in Nx-56.
Agent Ji-Young Hae: Primary tracker for MTF-ε. Former private investigator with experience in game hunting.
Agent Dexter Norman: Agent of MTF-ε. Former bodyguard.
Agent Griffeth Glines: Agent of TF-2 . Experience in law enforcement and information security, citizen of Nx-56.
Dr. Chatur Goyal: Research specialist of MTF-ε. PhD in ecology, field researcher on loan from Cardiff University.
The following logs have been excerpted for the sake of brevity.
► Expedition Log 4886/8.1989.H2E1.1 Expedition Log 4886/8.1989.H2E1.1 Begin Log 1.1 The log opens with a view of the Eastern SCP-4886 checkpoint, from the point of view of Agent Lancelot's helmet's onboard camera.
Lancelot: This is Agent Lancelot, Task Force He-Two, here with the lovely Mobile Task Force Epsilon. Can we get a role call?
The view pans across the members of H2E1, all of whom are double-checking equipment. Of note: Agent Glines is having difficulty with his boots.
Hae: Hae Ji-young, Mobile Task Force Epsilon.
• • • • • Glines: Griffeth Glines, He-Two.
Norman: Agent Norman, Epsilon.
Goyal: Uh… Dr. Goyal, researcher for Mobile Task Force Epsilon.
Lancelot: Good, good.
Glines: Role call's new.
Lancelot: New faces, Grif.
The camera moves back to examining the checkpoint. Post-mission analysis reveals that an avian instance of SCP-4886-A is briefly visible in the low foliage, which Lancelot ignores.
Lancelot: It's a beautiful overcast day in Willinggami Woods, SCP-4886. Team two and three have moved in, hopefully drawing the dash A's attention away from us for the time being. Team one's ready to go in, scope things out, we got enough supplies to do that for a week and enough tape to record three days of that week. Whenever you're ready.
Lancelot waits for an affirmative from the other four, approximately 45 seconds. Glines is the last to affirm; the team moves in shortly after.
End Log 1.1 Begin Log 1.2 H2E1 continues through SCP-4886, lead by Hae with Norman guarding the flank.
Lancelot keeps watch around the sides of the team, although his gaze occasionally turns to Hae.
Lancelot: Juuuuust checking back in, team's proceeding inward. Everything's looking good… Goyal: Is this normal for him? The radio voice?
Glines replies, though his response is indistinct.
Lancelot: Eh, it pays to be a little lighthearted. All this is a very stressful job, and that's before- Norman: Shos1 spotted.
Norman is heard firing at an off-screen target, startling the other members of H2E1.
Lancelot immediately turns to Norman, whose rifle is trained on the corpse of a deer.
The deer's ventral torso has ruptured; as Lancelot comes closer, a cervine instance of SCP-4886-A can be seen devouring its mother's viscera.
Hae: Jesus fucking Christ!
Dr. Goyal comes into the camera view, crouching down to examine the instance.
Hae: Don't touch that. Please don't tell me- Goyal: Just relax.
Removing his backpack, Dr. Goyal retrieves a field forensics kit and begins examining the deer's corpse. The camera shifts focus to Hae (who is retching), then Glines (who alternates between staring at the deer and looking away), before settling back on Dr.
Goyal.
End Log 1.2 Analysis of SCP-4886-A-288 SCP-4886-A-288 was a fetal instance of SCP-4886-A, hosted by a female specimen of Capreolus capreolus2.
A-288's physiology was unsuited for life outside the womb. Lacking an effective means of locomotion, A-288 would have been forced to crawl on its belly, exposing it to dirtborn pathogens and frictional burn. In place of eyes were eyespots, which would have provided insufficient sensory input to properly respond to predators. Despite this, A-288 possessed a fully functional digestive system, though one typically suited for the digestion of meat.
In addition to A-288, A-288's mother was carrying a non-anomalous stillborn fawn.
Begin Log 1.3 H2E1 have proceeded further into SCP-4886 with little interruption.
Norman: Damn it, won't come off.
Glines: The blood's not fun to wash out. Still, it's better than letting it live.
Norman drags the sole of his boot against a nearby rock.
Hae: Yeah, Christ. Epsilon's seen some shit, but I don't deal with that every day. I don't know how you and Jack manage.
Lancelot: Really, I think I'm just used to it. Live here long enough and you pretty much have to.
The camera once more turns to face Hae, who is looking back to Lancelot. Hae blinks, before quickly turning away. Glines clears his throat.
Hae: Right. So, before we hit the IZ, anything in particular we wanna be looking for?
Hae turns back to face Lancelot, then Glines.
Glines: You know, I think it's just- Lancelot: If I may? Most of the attacks, the ones I've seen, that requires opposable thumbs. Usually, that means it's a primate. Now, Wales has exactly two primates, and both are bipeds. That narrows the kinds of tracks down. Given that no one's died from seeing something, that leaves humans. If they're anything like us, they're smart enough to use tools.
Goyal: I don't quite like that implication.
Glines: I mean, given the attacks, I don't know what else could do this.
Goyal: Not that. The, uh, the human part. That means they have humans.
Lancelot: Or something else.
End Log 1.3 Begin Log 1.4 H2E1 have approached the Interior Zone's Eastern Checkpoint, approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes into the mission. Little of interest has occurred since Log 1.3, and H2E1 perform a standard check-in and pass through the Checkpoint without incident.
Six minutes pass without incident.
At approximately 1:16 into the footage, Lancelot's camera briefly picks up an instance of SCP-4886-A (hereby designated A-289) hiding in a nearby bush. Neither Lancelot nor any other member of H2E1 acknowledge it at this time.
At 1:19, while H2E1 deliberates on where to head next, Lancelot calls the team's attention to a nearby stream, where A-289 can be seen wading through the shallows.
Hae and Norman fire towards it, injuring but not killing it, causing the instance to retreat further down the stream.
The rest of the footage consists of H2E1 chasing A-289. At the 2 hour mark, Lancelot's camera beeps thrice to indicate that all available space has been filled, and the tape ends.
End Log 1.4 ► Expedition Log 4886/8.1989.H2E1.2 Expedition Log 4886/8.1989.H2E1.2 Begin Log 2.1 Footage opens with H2E1 surrounding a deceased instance of A-289, now clearly visible to the camera. A-289 is a stark-white humanoid, and would have stood approximately 1.3 meters tall. Aside from two eye spots and a partially-extended pharynx, A-289's face is featureless.
Lancelot: We okay? This is H2E1, back on tape, and it's a beautiful overcast day.
Norman: Not the word I'd use.
The view turns to Dr. Goyal and Glines, currently examining the corpse of A-289. With Glines' assistance, Dr. Goyal performs a rudimentary dissection, occasionally breaking to record observations in his field notes.
Hae: So… recap.
The view quickly shifts to Hae.
Hae: H2E1… neutralized the shos. Over the course of an hour or so, we pursued it further in, shot it a few times. Eventually it bled out, and now we're here. Aaaaanything I'm missing?
Lancelot: Don't worry about it, Ji-young. Hunting's half the fun in He-2.
Hae: What's the other half?
Lancelot: The hero treatment's not half bad.
Lancelot turns back to face Glines, currently holding A-289's corpse in place. Glines looks back at Lancelot, furrowing his brow in apparent contemplation before returning slight, tilted nod.
Glines: I mean I guess, what we can get. Beats being a cop.
Hae: Huh. Sounds like you two have it pretty good.
Glines mumbles something under his breath. Post-incident analysis was unable to discern Glines' exact words, other than a reference to "Jack".
Lancelot: Really, I couldn't have done it without Summerstone's support. It's an honor, serving this beautiful town. The attention's just the cherry on top.
For the next ten minutes, Dr. Goyal continues examining A-289's corpse. At approximately 2:11, he closes his notebook and stands up.
Goyal: Well, that was enlightening. Shall we be off?
Hae: Right.
Lancelot: Good, good. Northwestwest's looking good, let's see where the wind blows.
Lancelot kicks A-289's corpse, and H2E1 continues.
End Log 2.1 Analysis of SCP-4886-A-289 SCP-4886-A-289 was a bipedal humanoid of unclear intelligence. It stood approximately 129 centimeters tall, and appeared pale and hairless.
A-289 did not display the aggression typical of SCP-4886-A; while most likely a logical reaction to the presence of multiple persons, such behavior suggests sentience, and further suggests that instances of SCP-4886-A vary in intelligence.
Furthermore, A-289's gait was remarkably human from what little I observed, as were its evasive tactics. In conjugation with the evasive tactics observed in its retreat, this suggests a human origin.
Begin Log 2.2 H2E1, headed by Agent Lancelot, continue through the Interior Zone at a steady pace, occasionally checking in with H2E2 and H2E3. At approximately 2:31, H2E1 encounters what appears to be an unpaved foot trail.
Norman: … do we follow?
Hae: I see no reason not to. Jack?
Lancelot: Does a bear shit in the woods?
Lancelot heads west down the path, while H2E1 follows behind. Audio picks up Lancelot softly whistling "The Lincolnshire Poacher". H2E1 continues for approximately 2 minutes before Glines stops and audibly groans.
Glines: Shit, we were supposed to mark the trees.
Lancelot: Mmm, I think we're good.
Glines: Maybe us, but what about Epsilon? What if we need to send more people? I don't know if muscle memory suffices, Lancelot.
Lancelot: Seriously man, don't worry about it. I know this place inside and outside. And hey, think of it this way: if I die, all you gotta do is walk in a straight line until- Norman: Shos spotted.
Norman is heard firing at an off-screen target, visibly startling Glines and eliciting shock from the rest of H2E1. Lancelot turns back to Norman, who is looking at a point further down the trail.
Norman: … correction: that's… Norman trails off as Lancelot approaches. The camera focuses on Norman's rifle, then shifts to where Norman had been pointing his rifle.
A few meters behind the treeline is the cadaver of a nude European male in the early stages of decomposition, hanging upside-down by a wired snare three meters in the air.
Norman appears to have shot the cadaver through its distended midsection. As Lancelot approaches, signs of significant mutilation3 become clearer.
Goyal: I don't like this forest.
Lancelot: It's charming on its better days, I'll give it that.
Lancelot kneels down to examine a pile beneath the corpse, briefly whistling as he does.
Its contents consist primarily of crude fetish objects mixed with fresh carrion. Sighing, Lancelot stands back up.
Lancelot: I do so love my job. Continue?
End Log 2.2 Begin Log 2.3 H2E1 has continued down the Western path for approximately an hour, once more headed by Lancelot.
Hae: 4886 can't be that big, can it?
Glines: I wouldn't doubt it. All the death, these woods have to be haunted by something.
I mean, hasn't Epsilon had its share?
Goyal: Wilderness, yes. Not necessarily… this.
Hae: Yeah, tell me about it. Props to you and Jack, I don't think I'll be able to eat for another week at this rate.
Lancelot: Sure you're not in the mood for flatworm stew? Summerstone specialty.
Hae: I think I'll pass. You can take me to- Branches rustle from behind the group as something can be heard dropping from above.
Glines: Jesus fuck!
Lancelot turns back to Glines, who is struggling with an instance of A-289 clinging to his neck. As Glines struggles to free himself, several more instances of A-289 emerge from the treeline bearing primitive weaponry and engage H2E1 in combat.
Footage of the fight is predictably indistinct; careful analysis of the available footage suggests the force of A-289 have adapted a divide and conquer strategy, primarily targeting Agents Glines while attempting to distract the remaining members of H2E1.
H2E1 eventually fend the A-289 off, bearing relatively minor injuries. All five are silently attempting to recuperate when Glines suddenly yells in apparent frustration.
Glines: That's the sixth time this month!
Lancelot: Eh, it's not so- Glines: I swear to god they've been teaming up on me. I'm done with this.
Glines breaks from the group to head in the direction several A-289 fled towards.
Lancelot: You know, we really should- Glines: Are you gonna take us nowhere like you always do, Lancelot? You know, maybe we want to trail them. Maybe we want to find where they live or breed and put a stop to that.
Hae: We should settle down.
Glines: And let them flee? Excuse me, but what's our mission here? This is a lead, more than just a foot trail. It's somewhere they fled to, where they feel they can gain something by going. For fuck's sake, I don't know about you but I've been put through this song and dance so many times and not once did we follow them, Jack. Look where that's got us now!
Glines turns back to continue. Norman sighs, then tentatively follows; he is followed by Hae and Dr. Goyal. Lancelot pauses.
Lancelot: Oh bother.
As Lancelot trails the rest of H2E1, his camera beeps thrice to indicate that all available space has been filled, and the tape ends.
End Log 2.3 ► Expedition Log 4886/8.1989.H2E1.3 Expedition Log 4886/8.1989.H2E1.3 Begin Log 3 Footage resumes with Agent Lancelot squatting down to exam the corpse of an A-289 instance; cause of death is a gunshot to the head. The remaining members of H2E1 are not visually present, but can be heard in the background.
Hae: Jack? Is that thing still giving you trouble?
Lancelot: Just loading the camera, should be good.
Kicking the A-289's corpse, Lancelot turns to face the rest of the group.
H2E1 has converged around a dilapidated single-story cabin, sitting in the middle of a canopied clearing. The cabin is surrounded by a wooden fence in severe disrepair. As Lancelot approaches, the remains of patio furniture can be seen scattered around the grounds. Surrounding the clearing are several instances of A-289, none of which appear willing to enter.
Lancelot: We sure we want to mess around here? This place just looks sad.
Glines, who has been examining an abandoned well, looks up at Lancelot.
Glines: I don't know if we can skip this, Lancelot. Cabin means someone lives here.
Lancelot: Lived, maybe.
Glines: You're talking about a cabin in the middle of the woods not even the monsters will touch. If these things only got smarter in recent memory, chances are this cabin… (Glines visibly retches)… god, this place smells like shit. Even sticking my nose down the well's an improvement.
Lancelot: Yeah, be careful. Don't want you falling down and breaking your neck.
Glines: Mmm.
Dr. Goyal is seen approaching the two.
Goyal: I've collected a few samples, mostly soil, but a few from the firepit. Given, well, my dismal combat expertise, would either of you mind holding onto them in case I do not make it?
Glines: Bit of a grim way of looking at it.
Goyal: I'm a doctor, Mr. Glines. Good with my fingers, my fists… not so much.
All three remain silent for several seconds, before Glines sighs, taking the aforementioned samples.
Goyal: Thank you, Mr. Glines.
As Dr. Goyal leaves to continue investigating the clearing, Lancelot turns his attention to Norman (who is keeping lookout), then Hae (who is investigating a spot of soil near a chopping stump), whom he approaches.
Lancelot: Find any tracks, puma?
Hae turns back to face Lancelot, brushing her hair out of her face. She softly chuckles.
Hae: Not tracks. Look at this.
Beckoning Lancelot closer, Hae points to a patch of dirt.
Hae: Depression. Not as much foliage. I think something's buried here, Jack. It's something, even if I don't know what.
Lancelot: … huh.
Hae: It's near enough to the stump that… well, could've been disposal. Makeshift pit?
Maybe if we dig down we'll find something.
Lancelot: Eh, the midgets are too stupid for that. I'm betting on worms.
Hae: … worms?
Lancelot: Sure looks like it. Have I told you about my dad?
Hae: A little, I think. Landscape architect, bit eccentric?
Lancelot: Right, mean old son-of-a-bitch. Knew his gardens, made sure I did too. That's worms. Maybe not flatworms, but worms.
Hae: Worms.
Lancelot: Round ones.
Hae nods, then returns to examining the soil. Lancelot remains where he is for several seconds, before turning to approach Norman.
Lancelot: See anything, Norm?
Norman: It's Norman.
Lancelot: Eh, just sounds too formal.
Norman: It's my name, Agent.
Lancelot: Still a bit too formal. Can I call you Dexter? Just Dex?
Norman turns away from the treeline. His brow is furrowed.
Norman: Awful friendly, Agent.
Lancelot: Eh, spend five years on the beat and thirteen on the hunt and you make do with what you got.
Norman stays silent for several seconds, briefly glancing up at Lancelot's helmet- mounted camera, before sighing.
Norman: I'd… really prefer Norman, Agent. At least until we're better acquainted.
Both remain silent for several seconds. Norman scratches his head.
Norman: Sorry.
Lancelot: Nah, it's alright. I can treat you to- Lancelot is cut off by a loud scream from behind, prompting Norman to draw his weapon.
Glancing back, Lancelot spots the cabin — its door broken inwards — and rushes over to investigate. Lancelot arrives just before Hae, with Norman covering from afar.
Drawing his rifle, Lancelot enters the cabin interior.
The interior of the cabin is comparably dilapidated to its exterior: its walls are caked in mold, and the cabin as a whole is infested with gnats. The floor is covered in a mixture of grime, woodchips, hair, and dead insects. Furniture is limited to a wooden dresser, a legless bed (upon which rests a thoroughly-stained mattress), an unlit fireplace stove, and a table upon which a putrefied human corpse wearing a polka-dot dress lies.
Agent Glines stands in the middle of the cabin, staring at the corpse with his sidearm drawn.
Lancelot: … oh. Oh… Griffeth? Are you- Glines: Shut up.
Both remain silent for several seconds. Glines continues staring at the body, occasionally swatting at stray insects on his skin.
Hae: Everything alright?
Glines blinks twice, looking between Lancelot and the body in quick succession.
Lancelot takes a step back.
Glines: … she was wearing… this was her favorite dress, and- Lancelot: Youuuu know her?
Glines: I, I, I-i mean. Tegan… date. She called me and… Glines pauses, blinks twice, and grins.
Glines: Holy shit.
Lancelot takes another step back as Glines bursts into a fit of laughter, lasting for several seconds. Turning back to Lancelot, he opens his mouth, only to fall into another laughing fit, prompting Lancelot to take yet another step back. Glines's laughter is interspersed with coughs, eventually degenerating into a pained wheeze during which Glines leans against a wall for support.
As Glines goes silent, he looks back up at Lancelot, still grinning.
Glines: Son of a bitch, Jack.
Glines raises his firearm and fires at Lancelot, striking his helmet. Lancelot's camera is destroyed.
End Log 3 ► Expedition Log 4886/8.1989.H2E1.4 Expedition Log 4886/8.1989.H2E1.4 Following the destruction of Agent Lancelot's camera, H2E1 was left without a reliable recording method. The following log is a synopsis of the surviving members' testimonies.
As a result of Agent Glines's unprovoked assault, Agent Lancelot is forced to neutralize him in self defense.
Agents Hae and Norman enter the cabin almost immediately upon the hearing gunfire; the sight of Glines's death soon provokes a brief argument before Agent Lancelot explains the situation. From there, the team discusses their next steps.
While this is happening, Dr. Goyal has been outside, keeping watch on the A-289 instances around the clearing perimeter. According to testimony, Dr. Goyal was unwilling to engage with the events within the cabin, owing to his lack of sufficient training; furthermore, he had been "fascinated" by the behavior of the A-289 and their steadfast refusal to enter the clearing.
Dr. Goyal makes several more observations in his notebook; in particular, that SCP-4886-A-289 respond with greater negativity to English speech in comparison to Hindi and Punjabi.
The remaining members of H2E1 soon emerge from the cabin, reconvening with Dr.
Goyal. A decision is made: H2E1 will brief command on its situation, and wait for further instructions.
In light of both the loss and inexplicable actions of Agent Glines, H2E1 is ordered to retreat on the basis of possible memetic contamination, as are the secondary teams.
Retreat is uneventful, apart from the neutralization of SCP-4886-A instances encountered en route to the checkpoint. Upon return, operatives are isolated, detained, and screened for memetics.
Upon the confirmation of healthy memeplexes across the board, all operatives are released.
Following the operation, sightings and attacks decreased significantly; despite this, the source of SCP-4886-A's population surges remain unknown. Several theories have been put forth: SCP-4886-A-293, a massive, immobile boviform encountered and subsequently neutralized by H2E2, had been responsible for the mass birth of SCP-4886-A.
A-293 appears to have hosted several instances of SCP-4886-A within its body, although the nature of its neutralization prevented a thorough examination of its physiology.
SCP-4886-A's population was larger than estimated, enabling it to reach a "critical mass" favorable to further growth.
The Foundation has overlooked an integral component of the SCP-4886 anomaly.
Agent Glines assisted in the spread of SCP-4886-A, knowingly or unknowingly.
incident_report_4886_an_hae.docs Following the events of 11/08/1989, MTF-ε was temporarily stationed in Nx-56 in the interests of budget. MTF-ε would remain in Nx-56 until 15/08/1989, when Foundation Overwatch redeployed it in response to sightings of URA-173.
On 01/10/1989, Agent Hae registered an anomalous pregnancy with the Site-17 medical center. Agent Hae reported a lack of sexual activity or contact with male reproductive systems, nor sufficient interaction with natal anomalies to warrant contamination.
Regardless, preliminary tests proved inconclusive. Following standard questioning procedures, Agent Hae was considered eligible for Boleyn Program enrollment.4 Agent Hae was reassigned to a low-stress position and periodically administered prenatal physicals, as standard. No fetal anomalies were detected during this time, although it was determined that Agent Hae was carrying twins.
Agent Hae went into labor on 08/05/1990, delivering on 09/05/1990 at 06:15 and 06:19.
The attending obstetrician logged the following: ► Delivery Log 17-8B84 Delivery Log Personnel Identification Number: P-8B84 Date delivered: 09/05/1990, 06:15 (GBWLTB-Site-17 local time) State of delivery: Live Weight: 3.18 kg Head circumference: 34 cm Length: 48 cm APGAR scores: 1/1/2/1/2 Race: East Asian Eyes: Blue Mother: Ji-Young Hae (Employee Number 4952) Father: Unknown Anomalous?

P-8B85 resembles a partially-fused mass of various vermiforms, and has been classified as SCP-4886-A-294.
To the Foundation's knowledge, Agent Hae lacked a history of contact with SCP-4886-A sufficient to induce pregnancy. However, Agent Hae was in no condition to be interrogated further at the time. RAISA therefore initiated a covert investigation into the events following MTF-ε's arrival at Nx-56.
Initially, the investigation returned little: several security logs relating to Agent Hae were missing from the archive. RAISA auditors noted, however, several inconsistencies in the timeframes and durations of lost logs. Metadata analysis further indicated that several of the logs surrounding the missing sections had been submitted to SCiPNet a day or more after they had been taken. In light of this, RAISA theorized that the events surrounding Agent Hae's pregnancy had been deliberately obfuscated by a hostile actor with access to Foundation resources.
Agent Hae's records indicated that she had not been amnesticized for years prior; however, hair and body-fat tests indicated the presence of AMN-A0134, a Class-A Amnestic compound commonly employed by authorized members of the Nx-56 containment team. With this in mind, RAISA auditors reexamined the available footage to determine activities of personnel authorized for AMN-A0134 usage between 11/08/1989 and 15/08/1989.
Upon further review, all such personnel were accounted for, with the exception of Agent Lancelot.
[REDACTED PENDING DECLASSIFICATION OF INCIDENT 4886-AO] transfer.msgs • • • • • • • • • • • • • • MEMORANDUM ON MR. LANCELOT AND THE SCP-4886 PROJECT Following the events of Incidents 4886-AN-Hae and 4886-AO, both the Nx-56 and SCP-4886 projects have been transferred into the custody of GBWLTB-Site-17.
Furthermore, I would like to personally apologize on behalf of the SCP-4886 containment team.
Mr. Lancelot had been instrumental in the establishment of SCP-4886's containment, as an agent, containment specialist, and consultant. If not for his work, Summerstone's ecosystem may have been permanently destroyed. The SCP-4886 containment team naturally afforded him an unprecedented level of freedom.
The Nx-56 site management had been aware of reported problematic behavior from Mr.
Lancelot (and, to an extent, other members of Task Force He-2), and elected to deal with such matters privately. It was not, however, aware of the full extent of Mr. Lancelot's repugnant actions as revealed during Incident 4886-AO. For such a grave oversight, I am thoroughly ashamed.
Sincerely, ~ Dr. Evelyn Havaldar proposed_changes.sscpd Threat Level: Red See Video Log 4886-AO.
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-4886 is uncontained.
Personnel formerly allocated to the management of Nx-56-EX are tasked with escalating disinformation campaigns in order to remove SCP-4886-A from the collective knowledge of Summerstone. To this end, SCP-4886-EX has been acquired by Allen Snitches, a Foundation front company. Deforestation efforts are underway, both to recoup financial losses and assist in disinformation.
Provisional Task Force Ji ("Red Dragon") has been tasked with the capture of SCP-4886. PTF-  consists primarily of asexual/celibate personnel with experience in forensics, tracking, and criminal profiling. Reports of Platyhelminthes-adjacent entities are to be immediately investigated by PTF- , with priority given to sightings in Northern Europe and the Anglosphere.
Once captured, SCP-4886 is to be contained in a Type-A Humanoid Containment Cell in Site-17. For ease of identification, SCP-4886 is to be fitted with its former disguise, which has been surgically castrated and tattooed with identifying symbols. SCP-4886 is considered in breach of containment as long as it remains outside this disguise.
Instances of SCP-4886-A are to be neutralized as soon as possible. Development of obstetric equipment capable of identifying SCP-4886-A prior to birth is underway.
Description: SCP-4886 is an entity that previously identified itself as Jonathan Geirstein Lancelot. Its current whereabouts are unknown.
The following is known of SCP-4886: SCP-4886 is sapient, fluent in English, Welsh, and Finnish.
SCP-4886 was capable of impersonating a human through unknown means.
SCP-4886 is aware of the Foundation's existence and, to an extent, its operating structure.
Over the span of fifteen years, SCP-4886 displayed proficiency in hunting, tracking, firearm usage, and amnestic administration.
SCP-4886 is verifiably responsible for the death or disappearance of at least 5 Foundation personnel.
SCP-4886 is capable of impregnating humans.
The following is suspected of SCP-4886: SCP-4886 may have been directly responsible for the death or disappearance of 70+ persons over the span of at least twenty years, many of which have been falsely attributed to SCP-4886-A.
SCP-4886 may be capable of impregnating all animals with which it can copulate, regardless of sex.
SCP-4886 may have been the primary source of SCP-4886-A, cultivating its population and spread.
SCP-4886 may be capable of creating a new disguise in absence of its previous one.
SCP-4886-A are a series of highly aggressive animaloid entities thought to have been a product of SCP-4886-EX. Following Incident 4886-AO, the Foundation has been forced to reevaluate their nature.
