Dr. Pierre Dagon is/was a Canadian scientist at Foundation Site-403, known for his work in the Department of Sciences (DoS) and as a prominent member of the Artificial Intelligence Applications Division (AIAD).

Dr. Dagon is/was considered to be a polymath of standard and anomalous research methodologies. His expertise in determination of properties and effects of sentient anomalies and of anomalous objects through his background in analytical and interpretive science techniques led him to excel at determining proper containment procedures upon their arrival to the Department of Sciences.

Early Life

Dagon was born to Dianne Trimble and Jonathan Dagon eight months from first diagnosis shortly after Valentines Day, 1995. Dagon's first few weeks of life were spent in an incubator due to his habit of turning blue during bouts of stubbornness towards breathing. However, his opposition towards air is not believed to have contributed to his later development. As a toddler, Dagon was known for the many added straps into his stroller due to his frequent attempts to escape and run into the street.

As an adolescent, Dagon frequently engaged in risky behaviour such as running full-speed into walls head-first, experimenting with various toxic substances,² and instigating conflict between nearby persons to fuel his addiction to stress.³ It was during one of his self-induced panic attacks that Dagon first became aware of the latent reality-warping abilities held by all emotive beings. Dagon would later reference these experiences as inspiration for his work with the AIAD.

As a young adult, Dagon excelled in the sciences beyond his peers.⁴ However, he was frequently in trouble and was warned against becoming a scientist due to his attitude towards authority⁵ and general disinterest in his education.⁶ Outside of his schooling, Dagon also engaged in sports,⁷ music,⁸ and volunteering.⁹ Dagon has often credited his experiences in scouting in his development of skills related to management¹⁰ and reacting to unexpected situations.¹¹

Foundation attention

Dagon first entered the eye of the Foundation during his youth when he became involved in a search for a rare Canadian Chupacabra. In this event, Dagon was participating in a "Blood Hunt"¹² when his group stumbled upon a second path of blood leading deeper into the woods. After tasting the blood and finding it to be real, Dagon's group decided that this second path must have been the correct path and followed it to the corpse of a deer that had been freshly killed and drained by the Chupacabra. Dagon and his group were amnesticized the following morning, although Dagon is believed to have retained all memory of the event due to a temporal procedure he would later undergo after the events of Project RUBY.

Dagon would then be observed by Foundation personnel throughout much of his life as he had many other encounters with the anomalous. Some Foundation personnel¹³ have even gone as far as proposing that Dagon had become some sort of living nexus sometime in his childhood due to the sheer amount of anomalous occurrences that had occurred around him, although no tests of this theory had ever been performed. Of particular note, Dagon's presence often changed the activity of barbershops that he entered, causing hairdressers to enter a fugue state and act uncharacteristically of their professional and typical identity,¹⁴ and conferences that he attended, causing technology to malfunction around him.¹⁵

Career at the Foundation

Dr. Dagon has held multiple roles at the Foundation during his tenure. In October of 2020, he completed Foundation training as a Butterfly Reviewer and became involved in the critique and review of internal documentation as a copy editor of the Journal of Predation and Containment. Additionally, Dr. Dagon has been involved in various other Foundation initiatives, although the majority of these records are still being retrieved after the events of Project Ruby.

Career as the head researcher of the AIAD (1986-1999)

Dr. Dagon oversaw the AIAD task force responsible for containing a hostile extraterrestrial construct released from containment in 1996. His knowledge of computers and artificial intelligence, developed in his work at the Foundation between 2008 and 2024 before being sent back in time to 1986 by a reality bending anomaly, made him an invaluable asset for the early AIAD program.

SCP-5365: You Do Not Recognize The Antibodies In D. Walter
By Pedagon
This was my gift to Rigen for the Holiday Gift Exchange 2020. I was asked to write about an anomalous infectious disease and, with the real world situation currently occurring, I chose to find a way that let me explore disease in a cute and funny way. I have heard that this is many peoples' favourite article to come out of the gift exchange and I am incredibly proud of that. I hope you enjoy it too

SCP-5366: Until Death Do Us Part And Every Day After
By Pedagon
I wrote this as an exploration of my own fears of being unable to communicate and being unheard. This article represents the deepest of my own fears and I hope it comes across as a personal experience to readers as much as it was for me writing it

SCP-5367: The Quantum Curriculum
By Pedagon
This was the piece that inspired me to sign up for an account and write for the wiki. In this article I critique standardized education practices in modern schools through a lens of quantum mechanics. I explore the dangers of grading, universal designs for learning, and efficiency activity models.

SCP-5368: She Loves Me Not
By Pedagon, JakdragonX
I saved this from the slaughterhouse after the original version didn't do too well. Tried to put emphasis back on the characters and the realities of having a "blessed" object around.

SCP-6217: The Emergence
By Pedagon, Re_spectators
This is my entry into the 6k contest. It is about the origins of life through an inorganic chemistry and lovecraftian perspective of the Church of the Broken God.

SCP-6690: NO MORE PURPLE DINOSAUR

SCP-6556: DINOVLOGS!

IDENTIFIER: Brian [REDACTED]

HISTORY WITH THE FOUNDATION: I have been reading the wiki since 2008 when the SCP-173 4chan post was left printed in a school printer and I had to know more. I only became involved in the community in 2019 because I finally had something to write an article about. I tend to enjoy writing character pieces and science-heavy articles.
