SCP Foundation/SCPs/SCP-RS-108

Item #: SCP-RS-108

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: Signs are to be posted around Falador and Lumbridge indicating that feeding of birds is prohibited under the pretense of environmental protection. Agents embedded in local law enforcement may issue citations to civilians that disregard the ordinance. Additional personnel posing as litter removal crews are to conduct hourly sweeps for food scraps.

At present, two (2) instances of SCP-RS-108-A and three (3) instances of SCP-RS-108-B are kept in a marine waterfowl habitat located ██ km west of Oo'glog. The area extending 15 km from the habitat is designated Containment Area-███ and closed to civilian shipping under the guise of a naval weapons testing range. All SCP-RS-108-A and SCP-RS-108-B instances are to be tagged with radio transmitters.

If an Epsilon event occurs, Mobile Task Force Lambda-4 ("Birdwatchers") is to attempt to lead the resultant SCP-RS-108-A instance to Containment Area-███ via Protocol 113-Warner. Should it be impossible to enact Protocol 113-Warner without breaching Foundation secrecy or endangering civilians, task force members are authorized to terminate the instance. Any subjects that breach the perimeter of the containment area are also to be destroyed.

Civilians known to have witnessed an Epsilon event or Protocol 113-Warner are to be located and administered Class-B amnesiacs.

Description: SCP-RS-108 is a group of mallards that inhabit Falador Park and Lumbridge. They resemble normal ducks and generally behave as such. DNA testing has shown no genetic abnormalities. However, any SCP-RS-108 instance that consumes ██ g or more of food within a span of a few minutes will undergo an Epsilon event and grow to approximately ███ times its original size in volume, becoming an SCP-RS-018-A instance. The source of this additional mass is not known. Further feeding to SCP-RS-108-A does not result in any additional anomalous effects.

SCP-RS-018-A is able to reproduce, resulting in SCP-RS-018-B instances. The offspring resemble normal ducklings but are far larger than their non-anomalous counterparts. It is currently not known if SCP-RS-018-B will eventually become SCP-RS-018-A. Feeding to SCP-RS-018-B does not have any apparent effect.

Addendum RS-108-1: Protocol 113-Warner

Mobile Task Force Lambda-4 ("Birdwatchers") is to deploy a trail of food leading to Containment Area-███ while four (4) D-class personnel equipped with electric cattle prods are to goad SCP-RS-108-A into following the food trail. Should SCP-RS-108-A deviate more than ██ m from intended path or becomes hostile towards personnel or civilians, task force members are permitted to terminate it.

Aerial bombardment of SCP-RS-108-A instances is permitted at O5 discretion as they have shown to be highly resistant to physical damage. Any air force operations are to be explained as military exercises conducted by the Mobilising Armies Command Centre.
