Basically, I have this idea for an SCP that's an androgynous humanoid with no mouth, eyes, ears, or nostrils. Despite its lack of a ears or eyes, it seems to posses normal human sight and hearing. It is able to communicate by producing smoke from its fingertips, and can use this smoke to write messages and draw images in the air to communicate.

Some elaboration will be required before I can evaluate this idea. I can't say yet whether it's good or intolerable.

It's just a derivative of the old Asian ghost stories about faceless people.

We also already have/had a faceless humanoid SCP. It couldn't write smoke letters but it ate people's faces if they got too close and then screamed until the facial features were completely absorbed into the face. I can't seem to find it anymore so it seems to have been pruned off the site. That says something.

What would make this scary? Sure, something with no bits, no mouth or eyes or ears or nostrils is a bit frightening, but what danger does it pose to society? What danger does it pose to the world? What danger does it pose to itself?

It's just… Weird, really.

There are plenty of "Safe" SCPs out there that are just "weird" or otherwise completely mundane except for some supernatural quality.

Maybe the images drawn in smoke come to life and behave according to their shape?

Sounds like a bad plan.

The "smoke images coming to life" thing? Or the whole idea?
