Hello all, I'm sealedspeech.
I've known about the wiki for a long time. By my recollection of "keter duty" and reading the site history essay, I guess I've read stuff since near the start of the site?
I did drop off for several years (mostly because I read every top-rated article), but a forum link brought me back here and reading the site again.
I was prompted to join the site by the news of the D-Class Contest from @scp_txt. The SCP that I've had kicking around in my head turned out to fit right in to the contest rules and themes, so all of a sudden I have a hard deadline. So, off to writing!
Of course this will be an interesting one for a first submission. The SCP I plan to submit is:
- Keter
- Humanoid
- Uncontained … sort of. (It doesn't so much have a containment protocol as a "don't make it any worse" protocol).
I do think the non-standard nature of the SCP and the danger it poses should be enough.
This isn't the only SCP I've thought of, but it IS the only one that fits the contest. We'll see how everyone likes it when I post.
As an additional comment - the How To Write An SCP guide links to the wrong SCP announcement thread. I'd edit it, but I'm not sure if that's against site policy.
