SCP Foundation

Hey guys, this is my first time on this forum and as a result I don't know the proper etiquette for describing my idea so I'll just dive right in:

I want to write a Tale in which a company (or secret organization?) called Oddballs Incorporated exists. This company specializes in making the human race "better" using what the company likes to ball additions. These additions, in effect, mutate and deform the test subject. For example, a victim could end up with four arms where their legs would be or a certain amount of eyes could be sown onto the victims back. The story would make apparent and detail the CEO's deranged attempt at making a superior race of humans.

Now, I need the communities help in deciding in what format to write this story in. I was thinking of writing it in the way this tale was written with the CEO being the one speaking the monologue. I'm thinking of writing it this way on the grounds that the CEO could ramble on and on, making his derangement very clear. I'm also leaning more towards this path because I'm not a good writer and this would just be easier haha.

So if anyone can aid me in deciding on what format to write the Tale in that would be great. Also, it would help me a lot if you could help me flesh out my story a bit more and add as many details as you like.

Thanks in advance everyone and sorry for the long post. By the way, the summary for this post would be kind of the catchphrase of the CEO.

I think you can write the tale in the form of dialogue, records, or written correspondence.

However, writing about the new company can be a little difficult. Groups of Interest tend to catch on after a notable number of SCPs have been written involving them, and it might be hard to keep the subject interesting and in-universe (the base idea is a little vague. From what I read, you basically just want to write about a company that experiments on and mutates humans).

Someone can correct me about the GOIs, but I'm not too sure this would work out, since you haven't given any sort of plotline. Do you have a story planned out, or you just want to establish Oddballs Inc. as a potential GOI?

Oh wow, I completely forgot to write about my current idea for the plot! What I was thinking is that the Tale would be about a journalist taking a tour of the building Oddballs Inc. is situated in with the tour guide being the CEO who created the company itself. The CEO would describe the company's history as well as give details about current projects and what is coming for the future (a newly designed race of "better" humans). Throughout the Tale the CEO would show the journalist different "generations" of humans with different mutations and additions. I envision that the end would be that as the CEO ends the tour he begins explaining the the company could make him better too and the Tale would close as the journalist is captured.

As for the Groups of Interests bit I don't neccesarily need Oddballs Inc. to be apart of it, per se, but if it is required I could write a backstory for it too.

You know what you just described?

Cave Johnson and Aperture Science.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume the similarities are unintentional, but this is not gonna fly.

Oh really? I wasn't aware Aperture Science mutates and deforms test subjects to ultimately create a new and better race of humans. I always thought Aperture Science makes portal guns and tests them out with the aid of a super computer. I really don't see any similarities whatsoever between the two so please explain what you mean.

But again, Aperture Science's main focus is not to create a new race of humans by mutating them but rather to create portal guns and gel. The part about the rambling can be said the same of literally any book or short story with a rambling and deranged CEO… accusing me of somehow copying Aperture Science would mean that Valve ripped off countless other books with deranged CEOs. And even if Aperture Science performs illegal experiments it doesn't mean that they perform the exact same illegal experiments as Oddballs Inc. would.
