This is my very first article here, would like to know folks' thoughts on it. (Thanks for letting me join, by the by)
You should make a post on the announcements thread about this, son. Gets noticed a titch faster, eh.
That said, this is quite the concept you have here. Might want to expand upon it, though. How was it determined that the pen causes people to drop dead? How did it get passed around the facility from agent, to D-Class, to doctor?
Thanks for reading the rules and using the article template, by the way.
Dr. Dahij accidentally steals the pen from his life insurance agent after updating his life insurance policy, idly clicks it at his desk until most of the people he knows are dead, new item submitted to testing, removed from his personal custody and given SCP status? I didn't really think that much about the circumstances involved, actually, lol. The concept came from me watching Goldeneye a few nights ago, and the pen grenade… Clicking pen = doom? Hell if I know, I just wrote what came to me.
(People not following the template in a lot of downvoted / generally bad SCP's irked me. Figured I ought not to do the same as them)
Where does the D-Class come in, then? Find it a bit odd that they'd be allowed pens at all, much less one off a doctor's desk.
Perhaps have the pen kill someone Dahij is actually in the same room as, for no apparent reason, at the same time he clicks the pen. Plenty of reasons to pop into a colleague's office at any given point in the day, eh.
(Good call. Gotta say I almost expeted an insanity pen until I saw the formatting.)
Not really 100% sure where D-Class comes in, outside of testing. Like, SCP status is given to the pen after the above happens, testing carried out with unfortunate D-Class personnel, confirmed SCP status and effects?
Might want to straighten that one out a little then, eh. The reference is just kind of floating round in the middle of the article.
For that matter, don't be afraid to get a little wordy, and maybe even throw in a line break or two for the sake of friendly formatting.
Who is best to attribute the final statement to? I propose Dr. Rights. Possibly Infinyte.
What would happen if you write in the Death Note with the Death Pen?

I only read this once, months ago, but I still can't comfortably fidget with a clicky pen to this day now that I've read it.
Piffy is an SCP Foundation Moderator, Lv. 9001 Squishy Wizard, and Knight of the Red Pen.
There's a broken picture, and I was wondering about the causes of death/possibility of weaponization? What defines "know"?
I definitely like the way someone could just accidentally kill everyone they care about without knowing why.
However, there's just one thing I'm left to wonder - Is it possible to just destroy the pen? Becuase if it is, it seems a bit weird to keep around unless it's a sort of fail-safe replacement for 50 cyanide capsules. (Then again this is the SCP Foundation etc etc)

Pretty much that. It's significantly less interesting when you can feel reassured that the item is safely destroyed.

Link between pen and death is… tenuous. Plus, "know" is too vaguely defined for my taste.
Well, at least two people (Dahij and the D-Class) have used it to kill pretty much everybody they know… so, given that anomalous things are allowed to happen, it's probably not a coincidence.
On a side note, the last line there is some of the best black comedy ever.
