1 star. I wanted a homunculus that looked like me, and I only got an aberration.

Good writing, body horror, djkaktus format, Well what i can say, It's a good article!

Minor nitpick: "extant" in the first paragraph of the description should be "extent"

I'm wrestling between whether I should novote this or downvote it. On one hand, there are numerous things which bog down the main story beats. The dialogue in the infomercial transcript made me want to smash my face into a bed of nails until all that was left was a bloody pulp of skull-matter; the transcript in the discovery log, while hinting at horrific enough actions that it actually interested me, is brought down by the supervillain style of speech that SCP-5049-A exhibits throughout the entire thing; and I liked the majority of the interview log except for the ending, which felt like it came completely out of left field since the only mention of the Seven-Lords at this point was the fact that they exist in the infomercial and the fact that they could possibly harm 5049-A in the interview log, which doesn't really get resolved until a hundred-or-so words later in the middle of a different topic.

But on the other hand, there's a charm to this which I really like. The character of 5049-A, while a bit too stereotypically boss-like to feel real, has a certain likability factor that I just can't ignore.

I'm going to novote this for now. But if I revisit this later when the charm has worn off, then I'm probably going to change it to a -1.

The seven lord thing makes me eyerolls, but i generally still liked this article.

So I made a new tag

So I made a new tag for this SCP which is called demonic. It is named that because it relates to demons.

j brian 01 Dec 2021 22:58

I also added the tag to SCP-6666

You shouldn't make your own tags. If you want a new tag to be created, you should go to the tag suggestion thread (https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-14227350/tag-suggestion-thread-4:an-approval-for-crows).
