What are your unusual headcanons?

NatVoltaic 14 Aug 2016 02:26

Everyone has their headcanons, but what are your stranger ones? The ones that sound very odd and are out there. The ones that aren't common amongst the fandom.

This probably won't sound too odd considering the possible replies, but mine is that there isn't one SCP-001. They say there is one, but it is done to throw people off. SCP-001 is a classification given to the most important/dangerous anomalies the Foundation has, with various fake documents thrown into the mix as a secrecy measure, along with the lie of there only being one.

Operation "Camp Granada". Just, how serious and enormous this outbreak/breach was and discovering a new container of SCP-008.

Also another one is The O5 Orientation. It has changed my mindset and viewpoint of the SCP Foundation, It has as well opened my mind more to the SCP Foundation.

Clef was a higher dimensional being who accidentally got trapped in a physical form. He from time to time can access his old abilities, but has been forced into the role of trickster as it is the only way he can realistically function in this reality.

SCP-2000 is left out of my headcannon, and there is one true SCP-001: that in-universe, the entire SCP-Universe is contained on the real world website of SCP-Wiki.net

There is no 05 Council. Sure, orders and decisions and what not show up from out of nowhere that say they're from the council or council members, but nobody really has any idea WHERE they're coming from. All current and former council members end up being paid actors who suffer strokes and fatal heart attacks when found out. Its all very hush-hush obviously.

SCP-001 “When day breaks” is an event of which the foundation always knew about.
The O5 council hid the information in hope to find a way to save humanity without causing panic.
Site-19 gets destroyed in a breach, and is rebuilt bigger and better, now holding some of the most dangerous SCPs (682,106,096,173 as well).
The SCP-001 occurs, humanity is brought to their knees, including the foundation;
Some MTF squads go rogue, others try to relocate themselves to the nearest structure, Alpha-1 keeps doing their job as O5 council protectors.
Most of the survivors in America start living inside the new massive Site-19, but someone finds out that the O5 knew about SCP-001 all along, and a civil war to overthrow the council starts.
Some MTFs, agents, and researchers remain by the council’s side, others join the rebellion, and ultimately win the war.
The O5s are court martial’d and the control of the foundation is given to a new Administrator.
After 5 years SCP-001 ends and humanity starts to rebuild…and the memory of the foundation in the minds of the survivors slowly dissolves, turning it into the secret organisation they always were.
The GOC took advantage of the thousands of SCP facilities that were abandoned to kill many killable SCPs and to take under custody those that couldn’t.
The Foundation realised the threat and here starts a new war: The secret war.
At the end, the general of the GOC army is assassinated and the Coalition disbands.
After 30 years, in 2023, humanity is back at it’s original numbers, and the foundation keeps on doing their works…also taking care of the SCPs escaped 30 years prior.
The New administrator dies and a new one is elected by the foundation.

Yeah…I watch too many movies

Tufto's Proposal is frickin godlike. I love how well written it is and how much of it is left vague and mysterious. All of the laws you have to figure out yourself and it provides some of the most interesting lore for the scarlet king I've ever seen.

The SCP wiki is a front for the SCP Foundation. Senior staff is in on it.

Black Chamber disinformation because thhe existance of SCP repositories leaked at some point.

The O5 Council originally had five members. They included the head members of four paranormal organizations from around the world (I'm fond of the idea that the Foundation was born from the alliance of preexisting groups), and one Administrator, the head of the Foundation, who acted as the tiebreaker vote. The title of "Administrator" was retired after the death of the founder, and all O5s have equal authority.

Following a deadly incident, the number of O5s was increased (though the name stuck), and the current rules against exposing O5s to anomalies were put into place. O5s are not permitted to interact with any anomalies under any circumstances; even if anomalies could save their lives. This means no anomalous life-extensions - every O5 dies of old age, disease, or mundane accidents, just like the rest of us. For all the power they hold, in some ways, they're more restricted than your average researcher.

O5s are typically groomed from birth for their role, and most of them are direct descendants of former O5s. This ensures that none of them are exposed to anomalies before they become O5s, and means that knowledge of the inner workings of the Foundation comes as naturally to them as simple addition.

SCP-001 is the foundations founder. Any other SCP-001 was created by them to throw anyone off their trail.

The Children of the Scarlet King were a small neo-sarkic cult, with the eponymous Scarlet King being none other than Grand Karcist Ion himself. SCP-231-7 is actually ok with the Foundation, due to them treating her better than the Children did.
Don't believe it when they say they're trying to save her. Why would they bother? She's got exactly what she want exactly where she wants it.

Also, SCP-990, SCP-2007, Nobody and the "trickster forest god" described in SCP-1000 are (parts of the) same entity, that is actively trying to kill SCP-3125

And finally, Yaldabaoth and MEKHANE totally had the hots for each other.

As do the Ambassador of Alagadda and Dr. Spanko.

The Foundation started as a department of another organization.

They were tasked with gather anomalous objects, and use them to pursue the organization's goal.

But then the to-be Foundation lose the sight of their goal, and "gather anomalous objects" become their goal instead of method.

Eventually, they take over the older organization, and delete their existence altogether.

But somewhere out there, the remnants of old organization remain, still faithfully perform their duty….

SPC-173 mentions a mysterious, Shark Punching Center. Could this be the original, and anomalous entities were gained to see which could punch sharks the best?

Geddy Lee was, in fact, a prominent member of an Alagaddan cult prior to his containment by the Foundation. Certain theorists among the Foundation speculate his containment was achieved by vocal cord modification, hence why he sounds "normal" now.

A key part of the Day of Flowers and the uprising therein was human sacrifices infected with SCP-3125's component memes, who travelled to SCP-1000 settlements. This resulted in SCP-3125 destroying the settlements as collateral.

The situation in Can Haz Memes is a Memetics & Cog. Haz. parallel to the SCP-3125 situation in Your Last First Day – that is, 4chan memes eventually metastasised into a giant, sentient and hateful informational mess. The Memetics Department doesn't know this and merely thinks that the memes put out on imageboards just happen to be rather ripe for weaponisation.

Oh, hey! This inspired the final crosslink of SCP-5075, I never got to thank you for it.

SCP-173 is an alpha trial run of an upgraded version of SCP-2527. Its controller is a very patient player who just wants to make sure the stealth mode works well.

SCP-689 might also be trying out the game's new telefrag feature.

Re: What are your unusual headcanons?

sirpudding 15 Aug 2016 20:29

I have been trying to figure out how to use my idea that SCP-208 is the game that SCP-2527 is a knockoff of for a awhile now.

The Foundation has losed some O5s from to heart attack whiel reading report.

As such, handful of documents have "spooky" part expunged despite it isn't any more of sensitive info than the rest.

Why modern humans forgot anything about The Day of the Flowers?

Because modern humans didn't exterminated the Bigfoots, the ones who were gifted by the "Trickster Forest God" were actually the Descensus Subspecies, so the former could have been an Elohim, Saturn Deer impersonating one, or SCP-1348-1-E. This makes sence because the Descensus had nuclear technology in their ranks, and were using devices, such as SCP-1427, to subdue the modern humans from developing free will, so they would have never noticed.

One of my favourite bits of the wiki was in 1425 : "not all omissions leave helpful little notes behind." Which made me think. What other omissions are hidden?
SCP-682 isn't that special. Sure it's dangerous and all, but it isn't that bad. So why are we working so hard to destroy it? What is so special about 682? Why does the article state, in the first line of the containment procedures, "SCP-682 must be destroyed as soon as possible"? If you want, you can interpret it as 'This was written in older days, when the Foundation was different'. Or maybe, there's something about 682 that isn't written in the article, something that explains why 682 must be destroyed as soon as possible?

"Special Containment Procedures". I interpret that as saying that these objects, aside from being anomalous, are more or less unique. What with everything in the foundation-verse, you'd think that there would be at least one werewolf or something locked up. But they aren't given Special Containment Procedures, because they can be easily classified, unlike our SCP objects, which are out of the norm even for anomalous objects.

I've headcanon for that, made long ago upon reading how it's hinted that the Foundation found it after it "kill those farmers".

So it's invincible alien being, drop out of nowhere in some farm.

It is Foundation universe's Kal-El. And the Foundation is fully aware of it.

Now, the Director is bald, isn't he?

This has been a cornerstone headcanon of mine for a long time now. The foundation has entire warehouses and containment wings full of things that can be contained by general containment procedures. Skips are things that are weird even by the Foundation's standards, things that are being actively researched, and things that require annoying and bizarre protocols to keep contained.

The wiki exists in the Foundation universe, created to invalidate any belief in their existence after part of SCP-173's document was leaked onto the internet. A few are actual documents that have slipped through, but most are fakes created by the community.

I was thinking more along the lines of "This wiki is memetric, effecting those on the "outside" into believing that all of these articles are fictious and that they use this place as a recruitment center, along with their TV Tropes page as well."

But it's about the same.

Re: What are your unusual headcanons?

Chara Nalaar 06 Jun 2017 03:43

I've actually thought that the wiki would be an anomaly itself.

Simply put, the contributors have (anomalous) dreams about the content, which they then submit. They believe it to be their own creation, but it corresponds exactly with existing Foundation documentation.

The Foundation discovers this and begins to kidnap/interview some of the contributors. (Actual interview logs of wiki contributors would be quite funny.) Some of these people are later found to have an aptitude for the line of work the Foundation deals in, and are hired by it, leading to the existence of many prevalent self-insert characters.

The Foundation doesn't contain the site, and allows it to exist. It's a hiring channel.

The birth of the Foundation can be directly traced to the British failure during the Gallipoli Campaign in World War I.

Can you give a reason...

Rebecca Throop 26 Jan 2021 15:58

Weather it be an actual reason or just, "I don't know, it just feels that way" I really want to know why you think that, it's very interesting.
