Special Containment Procedures: SCP-8343 is currently classified as neutralized as of the events of Operation Anthropos Heimarene, which can be reviewed in Addendum 8343.4. All documents related to SCP-8343 are preserved for archival purposes. The remaining artifacts, paratechnologies, and documents that are related to SCP-8343 are classified as different SCP objects. Information related to the Sixth Occult War and all events that are not listed in the documentation below are currently classified by the Records and Information Security Administration. In the case that further documentation is necessary, please contact your Head Administrator of Site-01 for approval.

After the outcome of Operation Anthropos Heimarene and Incident Second Deluge, monitoring system WATCHDOG must be constantly monitoring Nexus-34 to verify that nexus' anomalous metrics have not been altered dramatically since the last survey after Operation Anthropos Heimarene. In the case that Nexus-34 metrics shift dramatically, either decreasing or increasing, an area must be established surrounding the perimeter of the nexus to inspect the area under Mobile Task Force Alpha-1 ("Red Right Hand"). The WATCHDOG system must also constantly survey the area and warn of any possible individuals or groups to be near the area, whether normal or otherwise, to dispatch the proper precautions to deal with the situation.

Unless the situation demands it, containment procedures for Nexus-34 will remain the same. Nexus-34 is unavailable for trespassing by all Foundation personnel, including the O5 Council itself, because of the effects that the nexus has on psyche of individuals when interacting with it because of the concentrated remains of SCP-8343 in the area. Finally, items and artifacts utilized for the neutralization of SCP-8343 are placed on high-priority for the O5 Council.

Description: SCP-8343 was an Apex-Tier Pluripotent Entity, a deific entity that reflected the Abrahamic God1. Despite the Foundation's knowledge of SCP-8343 being an imitation of the Abrahamic God, it did resemble the attributes characterized by the Abrahamic God. However, despite this difference, the extent of SCP-8343's capabilities were never fully recorded or listed. Following the resemblance between SCP-8343 and the Abrahamic, despite the differentiation between the two, SCP-8343 has been charactrized with the following attributes: omnipotence, omnipresence, omniscience, and omnibenevolence.

It is unknown if SCP-8343 was created by a previous entity before itself, or if it had always existed prior to the creation of the universe as we know it. However, it is a confirmed fact that SCP-8343 was the creator of the universe2. Throughout human records, multiple names have been given to SCP-8343, including: Aten, El, Elohim, YHWH3, Jehovah, Allah, the Monad, the Lord, The One, the Supreme Being, the Great Architect of the Universe, Star Maker4, and many other variations to refer to SCP-83435.

It is also unknown how much of an impact SCP-8343 has had in the history of the universe and humanity prior to the invention of writing and early human records, but research demonstrates that the earliest recorded conception of SCP-83436 appears across multiple cultures, throughout multiple geographical territories apart from each other, indicating the existence of SCP-8343 and its interaction with humanity from the earliest years of the latter’s existence.

The relationship between SCP-8343 and the anomalous is the following: since SCP-8343 was the creator of the universe, and therefore the designer of nature, SCP-8343 is also the creator and the designer of the anomalous. Scientists and theologians, before and after the formation of the Foundation, have attempted to resolve the question of why did SCP-8343 decide to create a universe in which it had absolute control of it, and still decided to design a universe in which the anomalous existed. Because of the supposed omnipotence and omniscience of SCP-8343, scientists and theologians have attempted to resolve how the anomalous and the natural laws of the universe could co-exist in a universe created by SCP-8343.

This dichotomy of definitions and contradictions between the perceived omnibenevolence and omnipotence of SCP-8343 towards humanity, while allowing a force that defied nature and man’s intent to explain natural phenomena, as well as paranatural phenomenon through the use of the scientific method, has caused an immense debate on the righteousness and necessity for the continuous existence of SCP-8343.

This debate took off further, as well as more aggressive and misotheistic, after the multiple occult wars waged across the century of Earth’s history as well as the later discovery and development of the scientific method. By the 19th century, occult societies and paranormal government agencies grew more weary of their defiance against SCP–8343, as more scientific discoveries disproved not only the existence of SCP-8343, but also of the existence of the anomalous.

For more information regarding the official turning point of the relationship between SCP-8343 and mankind, please refer to Addendum 8343.1.


Addendum 8343.1: Discovery of SCP-8343


TempleOfSolomonBlackwood.jpg

Depiction of Solomon's Temple according to Lord Theodore Blackwood, donated from his personal records to the SCP Foundation.

While human records indicated the potential existence of SCP-8343, a lack of any physical evidence that could demonstrate an empirical interaction with SCP-8343, with the exception of testimonies from religious and spiritual individuals and groups that testimonied the existence of SCP-8343, were so far nonexistent. However, this changed with the discovery of multiple paraarcheological and parahistorical evidence from the 10th BCE by Her Majesty’s Foundation for the Studies of Curiosities and Phantasmagoria claimed to be written by King Solomon of Israel.

This paraarcheological objects, which would include multiple texts written by King Solomon, such as The Greater Key of Solomon, the Testament of Solomon, and the Magical Treatise of Solomon. These paraarcheological records contained multiple topics that ranged from thaumaturgy, demonology, necromancy, clairvoyance, mysticism, and occult practices and studies researched and recorded during the reign of King Solomon – many of these written the epinonymous king himself. Many of these records indicated the existence of a ritual designed and performed by King Solomon, which would later be contained and referred to as the “Rite of Solomon”.

The discovery of these paraarcheological objects led to an interest in searching for the mentioned “Seven Keys of Solomon'', with the intent of studying them and perhaps utilizing them for interest of the British Empire – because of this, the expeditionary force, then led by Dr. Frederick Williams was then supported by Lord Theodore Blackwood to search for one of the keys. Dr. Williams and Lord Blackwood continued their search in the area of Ottoman Syria. Eventually, the expeditionary force found what was suspected to be the first Key of Solomon in an abandoned, decrepit building suspected to be one of warehouses inside Solomon’s Temple.

Suffice to say, the recovery of the key was a partial success. Even though Lord Blackwood and Dr. Wiliams, as well as members of the expeditionary force left the building unscattered, testimonies from Dr. Williams stated that they barely escaped from the building. According to the testimony, the retrieval of the key caused an immense shock across the building, causing it to begin to fall apart and collapse on their feet. Dr. Williams also stated that the moment he touched the Key of Solomon, he felt an immense backlash that he described as similar to what is currently known as an Akiva backlash when interacting with powerful thaumaturgic objects without caution.

After leaving the remains of the temple, Lord Blackwood and Dr. Williams returned to their headquarters in Jerusalem, to assist both Dr. Williams and the rest of the expeditionary force to recover in the medical wing’s, as well as to meet with a representative of the Majesty Foundation to report on the situation. Despite complains by Lord Blackwood, they decided to report their findings to the representative of the Crown in anomalous matters, and showing the recovered Key of Solomon.

It was at that moment when meeting with the representative, that another Akiva radiation backlash occurred, hitting all four men and nearby members of the expeditionary force, as well as causing immense infrastructural damage to the headquarters and surrounding areas. The event was covered up as an accidental explosion of dynamite from the expeditionary forces warehouse, and the people nearby who were around the event and saw it disappeared and were promptly executed. Although the leaders of the expeditionary force and the representatives survived, this caused an immense fear and diplomatic concern by both representatives of the danger of the artifact. The representatives would report the situation to their respective leaders, causing a worldwide, hidden scandal of an artifact that proved the existence of SCP-8343 – but also raising the question of SCP-8343’s necessity of its existence, as well as its relationship with the anomalous. This diplomatic scandal would spread widely through occult societies and paranormal research organizations, which would take advantage of the situation by feeding into the fear of world governments.


Addendum 8343.2: World Paranormal Congress of 1876


CongressOfTheHague1876.jpg

Photograph of the representatives in the first meeting of the World Paranormal Congress in The Hague (1876)

The scandal of the confirmation of the existence of SCP-8343 caused a widespread commotion across the occult community, where most world governments began to wonder if their power was secured after knowing that the existence of such a powerful being as SCP-8343 could subject its will onto their authority. This also caused the resurgence of multiple parascientific institutions and occult societies to consider the option of terminating SCP-8343. As such, after a meeting between the most powerful paranormal, government agencies, it was a decided that a worldwide convention between the most influential occult groups should be organized to discuss the existence of SCP-8343 and the decision that humanity will take over its existence.

This convention was named the World Paranormal Congress, and it was to be held in The Hague on May 5, 1876. Approximately, across a hundred organizations assisted the congress, ranging from government agencies, to private corporations, parascientific research institutes, and occult societies, met to discuss the state of SCP-8343 and what humanity's decision on SCP-8343 would be.

A transcript of the first meeting in the World Paranormal Congress is attached below:

After the end of the first meeting, the representatives who assisted the congress were induced into a collective hallfucination during their sleep. Inside the dream, each representative stated to see SCP-8343 communicating with them, and confirmed that SCP-8343 was who it was suspected to be. Telegrams sent to the headquarters of the committee from secular representatives were the vast majority of these supporters that SCP-8343 was God, while religious representatives from the mainline Abrahamic denominations continued to postulate the idea that SCP-8343 was another type of entity or a false god.

Immediately, all of these representatives demanded the reschedule of the next meeting to move it as soon as possible. However, Chairman Petain informed that the original date scheduled for the next meeting would stay the same, as to not pressure Dr. Williams and Lord Blackwood's research team to speed up the research into SCP-3457-B1. The revelation caught the attention of more secret societies that had not yet joined to congress to apply, resulting in the approval of all the volunteers.

After the result of the second session of the congress, a mass hysteria brew across the occult world due to the appearance and message from SCP-8343. For a moment, this causes a massive disincentive to continue the search for the rest of Solomon's Key and summon SCP-8343 with the Rite of Solomon. However, due to the efforts of the following leaders and organizations, the option for the neutralization of SCP-8343 remained as a prevalent option to deal with SCP-8343:

  • Professor Siegfried Borchardt, from the Society of the Godless;
  • Doctor James Siegel, from the Selena's Eye Society;
  • Lt. Colonel Henry Bowe, from the American Secure Containment Initiative;
  • Noviciate Adam Weishaupt II, from the Bavarian Illuminati.

Meanwhile, the key leaders and organizations that decided to avoid the neutralization of SCP-8343 were the following:

  • Cardinal Umberto Bonaventura, from the Cofraternity of Saint George's Knights;
  • Professor Magnus Simeon, from the International Center for the Study of Unified Thaumatology;
  • Gentleman Roland Beauregard, from The Humanist's Gentlemen;
  • Grand Master Jacques Luhan, from the Freemasons.

Despite the efforts of the previous leaders and their organizations, they were not able to stop the expansion of the possibility for mankind to neutralize SCP-8343. This was possible because of the efforts of Professor Siegfried Borchardt, who played into the fear and mass hysteria of the occult societies to rally them together and form a coalition block inside the congress to support the decision of neutralizing SCP-8343; at the same time, Lt. Colonel Bowe convinced the federal government through his leadership from the American Secure Containment Initiative to support the decision of neutralizing SCP-8343, on the basis as a threat to the national security7 of the United States.

Finally, the last session of the World Paranormal Congress would end in January 11, 1876. An attached document of the session can be consulted below.


Addendum 8343.3: Overview of the Sixth Occult War


The Sixth Occult War was an open, occult conflict between SCP-8343 and occult societies and government agencies representing humanity. The war lasted for six years from January 11, 1876 to November 11, 1882. There are three main stages of the war: the beginning of the war, lasting from 1876 to 1887, which was primarily the organization of the multiple forces to support their logistics and research outposts; the second stage, from 1877 to 1881, which was the search for multiple ancient objects that could assist in the neutralization of SCP-8343, as well as the creation of paraweaponry and first prototype of eigenweaponry to be used against SCP-8343; finally, the Battle of Mount Golgotha, that lasted from the morning of June 18, 1882 until the dawn of June 19, 1882 that resulted in the neutralization of SCP-8343.

The main objective of the war, besides the neutralization of SCP-8343, was the recovery of the Seven Keys of Solomon to perform the Rite of Solomon, with the hope of summoning SCP-8343 and either changing the nature of thaumaturgy to cause it to become inoperable or, in the case that it could not be achieved, to diminish its accessibility and strength. The first stage war was not only the establishment of logistical lines and cooperative outposts and bases among the participative organizations, but also to report on any records they may have of the remaining six keys.

Originally, it was planned to have Lord Theodore Blackwood lead the search and retrieval of the Seven Keys of Solomon. However, because of his disagreement with the neutralization of SCP-8343 and his own religious beliefs, Lord Theodore Blackwood refused to participate in the war and assist in waging it – causing a general outrage among the representatives. The following letter from Lord Theodore Blackwood to Dr. Frederick Williams elaborating on his reasons is attached below:

To: Dr. Frederick Williams, FRS

From: Lord Theodore Thomas Blackwood, CBE

My dear friend Frederick,

I’m sorry that I did not answer you sooner, but I had to process what I just saw in the congress that day. You know that I am an adventurous man, willing to take a leap into any situation that may face myself and triumph above it. But the situation with the Ring of Solomon and our summoning of the Almighty, I have to decline.

You know, my dear friend, that I am a deeply religious man – and a proud member of the Church of England. Oh, ever since I was a young boy, and I have never had a doubt about our Lord’s existence. But when you told me of the wise man that was King Solomon, and the old records that you found about his ring and lost temple, you awakened that my old childhood amusement with the old monarch.

I seriously hoped that the discovery of this ring would be absolute proof that our Lord’s existence would not be questioned. But I’m saddened to know that our discovery will result in his potential execution. Frankly, I cannot allow myself to participate. I’ve reflected, and realized that my own desire to bring His existence to the occult world will result in his death, has sickened me. I cannot participate, my dear friend.

I am guilty, and my hands will be spilled with the blood of Christ again. I have become a second Judas by handing my Lord onto man, not knowing that they would not react amicably. I can only hope that I will be forgiven, and any of us who have participated, will be too.

Once I finish reflecting spiritually, I will avoid any information about the war. I am preparing multiple trips for the following years, and one of them includes trying to climb to the summit of Mt. Everest. I cannot stop them from doing so, but you can. You are the scientist, after all.

Sincerely, your dear friend,

Lord Theodore Blackwood

Because of this, it was decided that the leader of the main expeditionary force would be Dr. Frederick Williams, with the assistance of multiple occult societies, world governments, and research institutions. With the logistics finally established, the first stage of war, which was mostly bloodless, was concluded and the second stage of the war began.

The second stage lasted from 1877 to 1881 was the start of the recovery for the remaining Keys of Solomon, as well as the construction of paraweaponry and eigenweaponry to be used to assist in the neutralization of SCP-8343. As government agencies and research institutions began the research of Hume, Akiva, and EVE radiations to be utilized as paraweaponry capable of being utilized to strike SCP-8343, occult societies were occupied in the search of the Keys of Solomon. One of the first rings to be successfully recovered was from the city of Prague, after the Bavarian Illuminati found old documents from Kabbalistic Jewish archives of one of the Keys of Solomon. However, this resulted in multiple casualties by the Illuminati from Operation Prague Kabbalist, which had to be neutralized and returned to its storage of origin.

It was at this second stage that the involvement of SCP-8343 in Earth to tamper against the recovery of humanity, by either psychically and psychologically manipulating individuals and organizations who opposed the decision voted by the World Paranormal Congress, as well the continuous encouragement of the creation and manufacturing of conventional weaponry instead of the manufacturing of paraweaponry and recovery of thaumaturgical items and objects.

This discouragement by SCP-8343 only pushed forward the search for remaining Keys and the anomalous objects across the world, as world governments continued to fund and assist occult societies in their mission. SCP-8343 also combated back against these attempts, by utilizing multiple anomalous beings and buildings which were searched by these teams against them, which included but were not limited to:

  • Reconstructed, aggressive skeletons from the Catacombs of Paris when a search team of the Estate noir entered the catacombs to encounter anomalous paths to improve the logistical lines between their allies.
  • The loss of an Abnormality Institute search party in Beijing after searching for the Dragon Brooch of Xia9, which was later retrieved after a reinforced search party to recover the previous party and the brooch – in which they had to fight against the ghosts of the guardsmen that protected the brooch, reawakened by orders of SCP-8343.
  • An immense diplomatic conflict between the allies and the Confraternity of Saint George’s Knights, backed by the Vatican and multiple branches from Catholic countries, once the Ancient Order of the Gormogons stole the Lance of Longinus10 from the vaults of the Vatican. Because of this, the Vatican declared war on the allied nations and societies, but did not side with SCP-8343 because of continuing to argue that SCP-8343 was not God.
  • As factories and research facilities were propped across the United States, hostile and rebellious Native American Tribes began to support the war effort of SCP-8343 by weaponizing cryptids such as the Wendigo and forming alliances with SCP-1000 communities to protect their lands and their magical rituals and traditions.
  • In the British Isles, Her Majesty’s Foundation for the Studies of Curiosities and Phantasmagoria sent forces to the island of Ireland as multiple Irish Druids and Fae rebels rose up in defiance of the war in support for SCP-8343’s survival, leading to open warfare across the massacre – as well as multiple massacres across the population and both armies.
  • Across Europe, the Middle East, and Japanese-occupied territories, vast swarms of flies flew across farmlands, resulting in the death of crops and difficulting the alliance’s capacity to attend the food supplies for the different fronts – as well as causing famines across multiple countries, such as Russia and China. Many of these affected farmlands showed Satanic symbols, causing mass hysteria across rural cities.
  • At the same time that the Russian government fought against the famine, reports from the Extraordinary Chancellery informed of ritualistic and suggested cannibalistic activity at the outsides of major population centers. The agents of Extraordinary Chancellery discovered the places of these rituals, as well as remaining thaumaturgical objects ingrained with human flesh. In the places where these secret rituals were found, it was reported that multiple human corpses have grown into the ground, with some villages either having an awful smell of putrefied flesh or completely burned down with no traces of its inhabitants left.
  • Finally, at the later stage of the war before the Rite of Solomon was performed and the Seven Keys were finally recovered, an anomaly current known as SCP–9927-ARC appeared after a massive earthquake that shook the participating countries at the same time. This resulted in the eruption of volcanoes, the rupture of the earth, the swarming of entire populations, and small storms in European seas. SCP-9927-ARC continued to assist SCP-8343 by using nature against humanity, worsening famines and causing natural disasters. Reports by members of the alliance mentioned that the earth below them constantly whispered them in a female voice speaking Ancient Greek.

Despite all these pushbacks and setbacks, the efforts of the alliance strengthened as they continued to prepare for humanity’s assault against SCP-8343. With the recovery of the Seventh Key of Solomon on March 24, 1881. It is informed that that day, the entire world shook and trembled, and that reports from psychic and magic-wielding humans heard the cries and screams of SCP-8343. Finally, preparing for the assault against SCP-8343 and the relocation of alliance’s forces in Golgotha, with the chosen date of April 3, 1881 to begin the neutralization of SCP-8343.


Addendum 8343.4: Neutralization of SCP-8343

The termination of SCP-8343 began on April 3, 1881, under the codename of Operation Anthropos Heimarene, in the [DATA EXPUNGED], currently classified as Nexus-3411. Operation Anthropos Heimarene was the final battle in the Sixth Occult War, where the belligerents of both sides fought against each other in an open battle instead of being scattered across the multiple fronts and waging war through sabotage, espionage and guerrilla warfare tactics across the world.

The battle began at the dawn of April 3, 1881 and it ended with the destruction of SCP-8343 by the hands of Professor Siegfried Borchardt and his light infantry men squad of thaumaturgists, as well as with the capitulation and or escape of the allies of SCP-8343 by dusk of that same day. Operation Anthropos Heimarene was a partial success, leading to the recovery of multiple anomalous artifacts from the enemy side, as well as the capture of anomalous prisoners of war12.

In the human alliance, the participants were the government agencies that sent their national armies that specialized in fighting against anomalous threats, occult societies that studied and recovered anomalous items and knowledge, as well as other organizations and or individuals who volunteered through the course of the war – such as was the case with the 'unknown cult'13 that terrorized the Russian population, or demons rallied by the Prince of Hell Beelzebub. Operation Anthropos Heimarene was led by multiple generals of multiple countries and their respective armies, as well as the leaders of occult societies with military capacities.

The same can be said for the side which fought for the survival of SCP-8343. Besides SCP-8343 participating in the battle and casting its own forces to fight for itself, other groups and individuals interested in the conservation of SCP-8343 fought for it. This includes the previously mentioned SCP-9927-ARC, which was the de facto second-in-command of SCP-8343’s forces and the in-land commander, as well as the participation of multiple anomalous races such as the Children of the Night and the Faeries, as well as then unknown at the time anomalous organizations and individuals.

Despite the success of Operation Anthropos Heimarene, the result did not go as planned from the beginning. For more information of the Operation Anthropos Heimarene, the development of the operation and its outcome, as well as the consequences of SCP-8343’s neutralization, please refer to the attached document below:

Operation Anthropos Heimarene did result in the successful neutralization of SCP-8343, as well as a brief but powerful morale boost by the participants of the human alliance in their victory against SCP-8343 and the anomalous. Records from human survivors and leaders reported an immense sense of accomplishment and fulfillment, with many agreeing that a new age of reason would finally be accomplished after the destruction of SCP-8343, which would result in the destruction of the anomalous. However, the reality of Operation Anthropos Heimarene would present itself incredibly soon, with Incident Second Deluge.

As its name suggests, Incident Second Deluge refers to a massive storm tide that occurred across the North Sea, as a physical backlash that occurred from the neutralization of SCP-8343. Incident Second Deluge affected coastal cities across Great Britain, Denmark, Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Norway. This resulted in thousands of civilian deaths as a result from the loss, damage to civilian infrastructure, sudden stop of agricultural production – resulting in widespread famine – as well as massive shutdown of maritime economic activity in these cities, resulting in the worsening of the conditions to supply aid to these countries. This caused mass hysteria across the population, and all of this was reported in local newspapers. The hysteria caused the public and news reporters to think that a second deluge was coming, and that “God’s wrath would cleanse the Earth again because of disbelief and the corruption of man’s soul.”

This was only worsened by the fact of the explosion of the mist while it was a rainbow, where many religious newspapers at the time saw it as God’s signal that his covenant to not bring another flood to the Earth was broken, and that humanity should await the coming of a Second Flood. The affected areas were immediately quarantined by each nation’s paranormal agency and respective armies, and all the newspapers informing of Incident Second Deluge were censored, shut down, and their editors and journalists imprisoned. The victims of Incident Second Deluge where saved, moved from their homes to national insane asylums that were remodeled to host the victims of the incident.

The reconstruction of the nations of the North Sea would begin ever since the end of Operation Anthropos Heimarene until the mid-1880s. However, the impact of Incident Second Deluge was an immense shock for the entire occult world at the time, but mostly for the world governments since they saw themselves as the actors who contributed the most to the war and were the most affected by it. The last straw, however, would be the actual result of the destruction of SCP-8343.

While it was expected that SCP-8343’s neutralization would result in the neutralization of the anomalous as a whole – including thaumaturgy and the parasciences –, it led to the exact opposite: the neutralization of SCP-8343 at the end of Operation Anthropos Heimarene resulted in an immense psionic and paranatural backlash that would be echoed throughout the world and for multiple decades, and resulted in an immediate, exacerbated, and extended mass awakening of latent paranormal activity across the world and the population. Such examples of the paranormal backlash as a result of the neutralization of SCP-8343 include: a severe psychic backlash in psi-sensitive subjects and parahumans, leading to feelings of ennui and nihilism – both in participants of the war and anti-war activists; at the same time, the backlash resulted in the strengthening of existing paranormal influence in practicing humans and parahumans, as well as awakening paranormal potential in human subjects15.

Incident Second Deluge, the mass hysteria in the population and the paranormal world, and the paranormal backlash that awakened and extended the paranormal capacity of the world population – human and nonhuman – resulted in world governments to intervene to end the Sixth Occult War, replacing the role of occult societies and parascientific organizations to institute a formal policy to establish a modern consensus of normalcy.

As such, the Convention of Preternatural Phenomena was initiated shortly after the end of Operation Anthropos Heimarene by representatives of the most important world governments – with permission of occult societies and parascientific institutions to participate as observers. The Convention of Preternatural Phenomena established what today is known as the Veil Protocol: in this protocol, the concept of Normalcy was finally formalized across the countries – and therefore the world – to separate normal, physical, scientific phenomenon and paranormal phenomenon that existed and was exacerbated before and after Operation Anthropos Heimarene: ironically, the Convention, despite being lead by the most important paranormal national agencies, resulted in the agreement of the need of an non-aligned, international normalcy agency that would be in charge of containing the increasing anomalous phenomenon and protect human innocence from the everchanging and incoherent world that resulted from the neutralization of SCP-8343.

Finally, despite that SCP-8343 was neutralized in Operation Anthropos Heimarene on April 3, 1881, the Sixth Occult War was formally declared over by the Convention of Preternatural Phenomenon on November 23, 1882 with the enactment of the Veil Protocol. From the neutralization of SCP-8343 and Incident Second Deluge, the Convention of the Preternatural Phenomenon would result in the formation of the SCP Foundation. Despite constant search by national authorities and occult societies, the bodies of Professor Siegfried Borchardt and Professor Magnus Simeon were never found.
