BY ORDER OF THE OVERSEER COUNCIL
The following file is Level 4/7163 Classified
Unauthorized access is forbidden.
7163
Item #: SCP-7163
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-7163 is to be contained within a standard humanoid containment chamber at Site-17. The chamber should be equipped with reinforced, non-reflective walls and an observation window constructed from frosted glass. SCP-7163 is to be provided with necessary sustenance, water, and medical attention as required.
Access to SCP-7163's containment chamber is restricted to Level 4 personnel and above. Any experimentation involving SCP-7163 must be approved by at least two Level 4 personnel.
Description: SCP-7163 is a humanoid entity of indeterminate age, approximately 1.7 meters in height. Her face appears to be heavily blurred and pixelated, making it impossible to discern any facial features. SCP-7163's body is humanoid in shape, and it displays normal physical capabilities despite its blurred appearance.
SCP-7163 has the anomalous ability to selectively unblur or blur the faces of individuals it focuses its attention on. Faces affected by SCP-7163's influence become completely blurred and unrecognisable to observers. This blurring effect extends to any visual recording or representation of the affected individuals.
Individuals who have their faces blurred by SCP-7163 experience a swift deterioration of cognitive functions, leading to extreme disorientation and loss of identity. If the blurred individual is not immediately separated from SCP-7163's presence, they will succumb to severe mental distress and eventually expire from unknown causes.
SCP-7163 is capable of verbal communication, using a distorted, fragmented speech pattern. When questioned about its criteria for determining a "face," SCP-7163 responds evasively and metaphorically, often alluding to concepts of justice, identity, and balance. It is difficult to extract concrete information from SCP-7163 regarding its motives or intentions.
Addendum XX-7163-01:
Incident Log
Date: [DATE REDACTED]
Location: Site-17
Description: On [DATE REDACTED], an unexpected incident involving SCP-7163 occurred during a routine medical examination. During the examination, SCP-7163 exhibited sudden and uncontrolled manifestations of its anomalous abilities. This resulted in the temporary blurring of the faces of several Foundation personnel present in the room.
The affected personnel reported disorientation, panic, and temporary amnesia regarding their own identities. Fortunately, the effects wore off within [DURATION REDACTED] hours, and all affected personnel made a full recovery with no lasting psychological or physical harm.
The incident prompted a thorough review of SCP-7163's containment procedures and a reevaluation of its emotional and psychological state. It is currently unclear what triggered the sudden activation of SCP-7163's abilities, as there were no apparent external stimuli or threats at the time.
As a precautionary measure, additional security measures have been implemented in SCP-7163's containment area to prevent unauthorized personnel from entering during examinations. Further research into the cause of this incident and any potential emotional or psychological factors contributing to SCP-7163's anomalous abilities is ongoing.
Discovery: Foundation operatives were alerted to a series of unusual incidents in the small town of [REDACTED], which appeared to involve individuals with severely disfigured and blurred faces. The incidents had been occurring sporadically over several months, and local authorities were struggling to explain the bizarre occurrences. Some witnesses reported victims exhibiting extreme disorientation and psychological distress before disappearing entirely.
SCP-7163 discovery place.
The Foundation initiated an investigation into these events, sending a team of agents undercover to gather information discreetly. After several weeks of monitoring, the team identified a recurring pattern: blurred faces, mental deterioration, and, ultimately, the inexplicable disappearance of the affected individuals.
One particular incident that drew the Foundation's attention involved a local hospital. A patient, later identified as SCP-7163, was admitted just a few days before the events occurred, following a severe traffic accident. SCP-7163, at the time, appeared to be a young girl with her face heavily disfigured due to the accident. The medical staff noted her condition as highly unusual, as her injuries seemed inconsistent with the physical trauma she had experienced.
As SCP-7163's condition deteriorated, her facial disfigurement became more pronounced, and her cognitive functions began to decline rapidly. This decline in cognitive functions was observed to extend to the medical staff, leading to several reports of personnel suffering from severe disorientation and anxiety while attending to her.
Upon identifying SCP-7163 as the likely source of the anomalous incidents, Foundation agents took action to contain her. During her transport to Site-17, SCP-7163 reportedly exhibited anomalous abilities, leading to the death of several agents and further confirming the urgency of containment.
Once SCP-7163 was successfully contained, her anomalous properties were documented and analysed by Foundation researchers. Subsequent interviews were conducted to understand her motives and capabilities, though SCP-7163's cryptic responses and metaphoric speech made it challenging to gain a complete understanding of her origins and purpose.
Interview Log SCP-7163-1
Interviewed: SCP-7163
Interviewer: Dr. Jules Yesenia
Date: [7/█/20█]
Note: Dr. Jules Yesenia is a Level 4 Psychologist specialising in anomalous psychology and communication with humanoid entities.
[BEGIN LOG]
Dr. Yesenia: SCP-7163, we need to know more about your past. Can you tell us what happened before your accident?
SCP-7163: [DISTORTED SPEECH]
Dr. Yesenia: We believe that your accident was not ordinary. Can you describe the circumstances surrounding it?
SCP-7163: A twist of fate, a path unknown. Shadows cast, a destiny sown.
Dr. Yesenia: Destiny? Are you suggesting that your transformation was preordained?
SCP-7163: The veil was lifted, sightless eyes. A canvas painted, a new sunrise.
Dr. Yesenia: Sightless eyes? Did your accident involve damage to your eyesight?
SCP-7163: Glasses shattered, vision blurred. A world unseen, the truth obscured.
Dr. Yesenia: Your glasses. They were significant, weren't they?
SCP-7163: A fractured lens, a shattered view. Distorted faces, chaos grew.
Dr. Yesenia: Distorted faces led to chaos? Interesting… Can you explain further?
SCP-7163: Faces masked, a world in disguise. Unveiled, chaos shall rise.
Dr. Yesenia: So, your accident somehow altered your perception of faces?
SCP-7163: A kaleidoscope of souls revealed. Disfigured, truth concealed.
Dr. Yesenia: Disfigured. You became disfigured after the accident, didn't you?
SCP-7163: A shattered mask, identity lost. Faces blurred, the world's cost.
Dr. Yesenia: Identity lost. That's a significant change. Did this transformation lead to your anomalous abilities?
SCP-7163: A gift, a curse, balance maintained. Chaos quelled, justice gained.
Dr. Yesenia: You believe that your abilities bring balance and justice. But how did you learn to use them?
SCP-7163: In darkness and pain, I found my way. Shattered souls, the price to pay.
Dr. Yesenia: Shattered souls? Are you saying you can see the true nature of individuals?
SCP-7163: The masks they wear, the truths they hide. In blurred faces, justice will abide.
Dr. Yesenia: So, your abilities are a response to the deception of others?
SCP-7163: Deception unveiled, balance restored. A hidden world, chaos ignored.
[END LOG]
The investigation into SCP-7163's past is ongoing, as the circumstances leading to her accident and transformation into an anomalous entity remain unclear. Researchers are actively exploring any available leads that may shed light on the origins and nature of this unique SCP. The investigation into SCP-7163 past has been thoroughly examined due to the connection found by an agent researching SCP-████ and its reality bending abilities. See Incident Report SCP-7163-3 for more details.
Location: ███ Ridge, █████.
Date: [DATE REDACTED]
On [DATE REDACTED], Foundation researchers uncovered a previously unknown connection between SCP-7163's accident and another anomalous entity, SCP-████.
SCP-7163's transformation into an anomalous entity was the result of a severe traffic accident in [REDACTED], during which her glasses were shattered. The specifics of the accident were initially considered unrelated to any known anomalous phenomena. However, further investigation has revealed a startling connection to an incident involving SCP-████.
SCP-████, also known as “The UnfaƵed,” is a highly classified SCP known for its reality-warping abilities. SCP-████ was previously contained at Site-17 until an incident on [DATA EXPUNGED], during which it temporarily breached containment, leading to significant damage and the release of multiple other SCPs.
Upon reviewing historical records and incident reports, it was discovered that SCP-████'s breach coincided with the exact date and time of SCP-7163's accident. An eyewitness account from that day described a sudden distortion in reality, causing several car accidents, including the one involving SCP-7163.
- The simultaneous occurrence of these events suggests a potential synergy between SCP-████'s reality manipulation and SCP-7163's transformation. Understanding how these anomalies interact is of paramount importance for containment and potential applications.
Request to do trials between SCP-7163 and SCP-████ have been approved by Thomas Graham, the site director of Site-17.

Subject: whoever it may concern…
Look, I know it may not be the best idea to put the cause of 7163’s accident and 7163 together, but if it provides us with any sort of insight on how to secure SCP-████ from any more containment breaches, it’s worth a shot.
You know where to find me when it all goes south.

Experiment Log - XX-7163/XX-████-01
Date: 11/██/20█
Objective: Isolation Testing
Procedure: SCP-7163 and SCP-████ were placed in separate, controlled containment chambers within Site-17. Cameras and monitoring equipment were set up in both chambers to observe their behaviour during isolation.
Results: During isolation, SCP-7163 exhibited signs of distress, often touching its blurred face. SCP-████ displayed restlessness, attempting to manipulate its environment despite the lack of apparent anomalous effects.
Experiment Log - XX-7163/XX-████-02
Date: 15/██/20█
Objective: Joint Interview
Procedure: SCP-7163 and SCP-████ were placed in separate, secure interview rooms connected via a two-way communication system. Dr. Jules Yesenia conducted the interview.
Results: SCP-7163 responded cryptically, her responses sounding more and more paranoid over time. There were apparent effects on SCP-████. SCP-████ engaged more in conversation than usual, and seemed reluctant to answer the questions provided, but answered most of them anyways.
[BEGIN LOG]
Dr. Yesenia, Staring into camera outside of SCP-7163’s cell: The time is [TIME REDACTED], on the 15/██/20█. She turns back to the frosted glass window before 7163.
Dr. Yesenia: SCP-7163 and SCP-████. We are here to discuss your emotional states and the nature of your interactions. SCP-7163, can you share your thoughts with us?
SCP-7163: A tapestry woven in shadows, threads unraveling. Bound by fate, yet undone by design.
Dr. Yesenia: I see. SCP-████, can you describe your emotional state at the moment?
SCP-████: …
Dr. Yesenia nods and turns to SCP-7163: SCP-7163, during previous interviews, you alluded to feeling targeted or threatened by another anomalous entity. Can you provide
more details about this?
SCP-7163: A riddle in the dark, a whisper in the void. I am the cipher, they the changer.
Dr. Yesenia: Your response is intriguing. SCP-████, do you have any information regarding your interactions with SCP-7163 that might shed light on her feelings?
SCP-████: [DISTORTED SPEECH] … I do not change.
Dr. Yesenia, visibly shocked: SCP-████, you haven’t shown any indication of cooperating in communicating with us. It's evident that with SCP-7163, you do not provide us
with any detail on why this incident occurred. Can you elaborate on why you targeted SCP-7163 specifically?
SCP-████: Compelled… by them.
Before Dr. Yesenia can speak, SCP-7163 cuts in.
SCP-7163: "Threads entwined, destinies diverged. In the chaos, a singular purpose."
Dr. Yesenia: I understand that you may feel threatened—
Both SCP’s turn away in their respective cells, seeming reluctant to provide any more information.
Dr. Yesenia: SCP-7163, SCP-████, we appreciate your cooperation during this interview. It's clear that there have been changes in your interactions and emotional states. We will continue to monitor and investigate these developments.
[END LOG]
Experiment Log - XX-7163/XX-████-03
Date: 19/██/20█
Objective: Reality Manipulation Tests
Procedure: SCP-7163 was instructed to blur the faces of several D-Class personnel in a controlled chamber. SCP-████ was placed in an adjacent chamber with a two-way observation window to manipulate reality.
Results: SCP-████ successfully altered the physical properties of objects within its chamber and personnel observed gruelling changes to the blurred faces of D-Class personnel in the adjacent chamber. SCP-7163's effects appeared to be highly affected by SCP-████'s reality-warping abilities.
Experiment Log - XX-7163/XX-████-04
Date: 20/██/20█
Objective: Emotional and Psychological Analysis
Procedure: More psychological examinations were conducted on SCP-7163 and SCP-████ individually by separate teams of researchers. The examinations included standardised tests and interviews.
Results: Psychological assessments showed that SCP-7163 exhibited signs of trauma and severe emotional distress. SCP-████ displayed heightened anxiety and frustration during the psychological examination, but no more information than their prior interview had explained has come to light.
Experiment Log - XX-7163/XX-████-05
Date: 29/██/20█
Objective: Anomalous Energy Interaction
Procedure: Specialized equipment was used to measure energy fields surrounding SCP-7163 and SCP-████ while they were placed in separate chambers. Energy fluctuations were monitored over a period of 24 hours.
Results: There were significant fluctuations observed when the two SCPs were in proximity. This has been noted and is currently being researched by the overseers of the two SCPs.
Addendum - Research Notes:
Date: 17/██/20█
I've noted the unsettling results of Experiment Log XX-7163/XX-████-05. The fluctuations in energy fields surrounding SCP-7163 and SCP-████ were far from typical. It was as if the very fabric of reality trembled when these anomalies were brought together.
Speculation arose among the research team. Were SCP-7163 and SCP-████ naturally connected on some deeper level? Or had their connection been deliberately engineered by an external force, possibly the Chaos Insurgency's doing? The timing of the containment breach and the subsequent incident hinted at a calculated plan, as if someone had orchestrated these events.
The Insurgency had always been an organisation often at odds with the Foundation's approach to anomaly containment, but I can't help but wonder if their involvement extended beyond mere interference in containment procedures.
The incident's aftermath led to increased scrutiny of both anomalies. Security protocols were heightened, and access to SCP-7163 and SCP-████ restricted even further. The overseers initiated discussions on the potential implications of these energy fluctuations.
Was it possible that the Incurgeny's experiments had been designed to create SCP-7163 and SCP-████'s connection, unleashing a chaotic force into the world? If true, it would signify a level of manipulation and control over anomalies that the Foundation had never before encountered.

Experiment Log - XX-7163/XX-████-06
Date: 3/██/20█
Objective: Temporal Displacement Investigation
Procedure: SCP-████ was tasked with altering time within its containment chamber, while SCP-7163 was observed in a separate chamber. Researchers monitored the duration and persistence of SCP-7163's face-blurring effects.
Results: There were no observed changes to the duration or persistence of SCP-7163's effects when SCP-████ manipulated time within its chamber. SCP-7163's abilities remained consistent.
These experiment logs indicate that, as of [DATE REDACTED], there is limited evidence of direct interaction between SCP-7163 and SCP-████. Further research and testing are ongoing to better understand their connection and the implications of their coexistence within Site-17.
The order to cease all testing between SCP-7163 and SCP-████ has been received due to an incident where [DATA EXPUNGED] occurred, causing [DATA EXPUNGED] and the loss of ██ D-class personnel and █ researchers.
Foundation Hypothesis on Chaos Insurgency's Actions Regarding SCP-████ and SCP-7163:
The Chaos Insurgency's attempt to break SCP-████ out of containment and harm SCP-7163 has raised significant questions and concerns within the Foundation. While the true motivations behind the Insurgency's's actions remain shrouded in secrecy, several theories have emerged to explain their actions:
- Anomalous Threat Assessment: The Insurgency has a long history of pursuing an aggressive stance toward anomalies, often labelling them as threats to humanity. It is possible that the Insurgency's perceives SCP-████ as a potential asset or weapon against other anomalies, and their attempt to free SCP-████ might be part of a larger strategy to gain control over powerful entities.
- Information Gathering: The Insurgency may have specific knowledge or intelligence regarding SCP-7163 and SCP-████ that has not been shared with the Foundation. Their actions might be driven by a desire to learn more about these anomalies, their origins, or their capabilities, even at the risk of breaching containment.
- Ideological Conflict: The Foundation and the Insurgency have fundamental ideological differences when it comes to the handling and containment of anomalies. It's possible that the Insurgency's views SCP-7163 and SCP-████ as anomalies that should be dealt with more aggressively, leading to their attempts to break SCP-████ free to further their goals. —- but why break SCP-████ out of containment just to create a new one? - Researcher Adam ████ —- It is merely a theory. Perhaps they have some use for a facial blurring SCP? - Dir. Thomas Graham
- Internal Factions: Like any organisation, the Insurgency may have internal factions with varying beliefs and agendas. It's conceivable that a faction within the Insurgency has its own reasons for targeting SCP-7163 and SCP-████, and their actions may not represent the entire organisation.
- Misinformation or Misunderstanding: It's also possible that the Insurgency's actions are based on misinformation or a misunderstanding of SCP-7163 and SCP-████'s capabilities. If the Insurgency's believes that these anomalies pose an imminent threat to global stability, they might take drastic actions without fully comprehending the situation.
In light of these theories, the Foundation has escalated its efforts to gather intelligence on the Insurgency's motives and activities. It is crucial to maintain the security of SCP-7163 and SCP-████ and ensure that their containment remains intact. Furthermore, diplomatic channels and back-channel communications have been initiated to establish dialogue with the Insurgency, with the hope of preventing future conflicts and addressing potential misunderstandings.
Addendum 7163-2: Incident 7163-B
On [DATE REDACTED], Researcher Adam ████ conducted an unauthorised interview with SCP-7163, believing that their facial features would remain unaffected due to an obscured scar on their face. During the interview, SCP-7163 unexpectedly launched itself at Researcher Adam ████, resulting in a violent struggle. Security personnel intervened and successfully sedated SCP-7163. Researcher Adam ████ sustained minor injuries but made a full recovery.
Addendum 7163-3: Containment Update
Following Incident 7163-B, access to SCP-7163's containment chamber was restricted to Level 4 personnel and above. All personnel must undergo psychological evaluations before interacting with SCP-7163.
The interview transcript from Incident 7163-B was never logged, and Researcher Adam ████ has sustained from telling us exactly what was said in the interrogation room. Further development in finding any sort of backup surveillance will be crucial in finding out why SCP-7163 attacked the researcher.]
