Special Containment Procedures: Due to SCP-8469-1 and SCP-8469-2's residency outside of the physical plane, containment is currently unfeasable. As such, priority is placed on response measures as well as concealment. When a Krísis event is detected on Foundation satellites, the nearest agent to the area of the event must be contacted and deployed to reach and awaken the afflicted individual by all means at their disposal.
At the conclusion of the event, any nearby witnesses are to be provided Class A amnestics, as well as a cover story about the target individual. If the target survives the event, then they should be taken in for questioning, after which they will be provided Class B amnestics and monitored for the forseeable future.
Description: SCP-8469 is an anomalous event, henceforth designated as a "Krísis" event, that randomly occurs every night between the hours of 8:00 PM to 5:00 AM and affects individuals, hereafter designated as SCP-8469-A, who have commited one or more crimes at any point in their lives. When a Krísis event occurs, an area of around 5,351 square meters surrounding SCP-8469-A will begin to rapidly drop in temperatures until it reaches 0 degrees Celsius. The event occurs only to individuals who have reached the first REM stage of their sleep cycle, and this state, alongside the temperatures, will remain the same until SCP-8469-A is either woken up by an external force, or is judged by SCP-8469-1 and SCP-8469-2.
When a Krísis event takes place, individuals have reported awakening in a large, extradimensional space resembling a courtroom. This space changes in appearance with each new SCP-8469-A instance, often bearing characteristics and imagery belonging to the instance's respective country, culture, or society. Despite SCP-8469-A instances reporting complete cognitive and sensory awareness during the event, their physical bodies bear no physical or psychological changes. Across all known instances of Krísis events, the hall will be empty except for the SCP-8469-A instance, as well as the SCP-8469-1 and SCP-8469-2 entities. The space will also possess three large wooden thrones featuring intricate engravings with religous and runic characteristics. Two of the thrones are occupied by SCP-8469-1 and SCP-8469-2 respectively.
Upon manifestation, the entities will begin listing the crimes of SCP 8469-A and deliberate on a "suitable punishment" for the instance. When they reach a consensus, the entities will then awaken SCP-8469-A, after which SCP-8469-2 will execute the decided punishment by manifesting in the physical world. While in the past decades, most punishments result in the death of SCP-8469-A, there are instances where the subject does avoid death, albeit with extreme physical or mental trauma1. Punishments inflicted on SCP-8469-A will, in some form, relate to the crimes they committed.
SCP-8469-1, designating itself as the "Judge", is described as a 5 meter tall female humanoid wearing a traditional judge's gown and a white mask of unknown material featuring a neutral expression. SCP-8469-A instances detail the anomaly displaying a calm yet stern demeanor, as well as a sense of intimidation and disapproval despite a lack of change in the mask's expression. This entity also wields a gavel which is used to awaken the SCP-8469-A instance at the end of the event.
SCP-8469-2, proclaiming itself as the "Executioner", is described as a 5 meter tall female humanoid wearing a dark cloak, whose body is composed entirely of a black mist-like substance. This entity is reported to behave aggressively and violently towards SCP-8469-A, often participating in berating and antagonizing the instances. SCP-8469-2 can manifest in the physical world, and across various encounters2, has also demonstrated various offensive and defensive capabilities.
The most notable of SCP-8469-2's abilities involve the transmission of a deadly cognitohazard through direct contact with the entity, as well as extensive manipulation of its own body structure. When used on SCP-8469-A, the cognitohazard results in the individual experiencing convulsions, followed by an increase in the temperature of the blood until it reaches its boiling point, culminating with the destruction of all internal bodily structures. On other individuals, however, the cognitohazard induces a comatose state with varying times of recovery.
SCP-8469 was discovered on 09/24/1990 following an agent's coincidental presence and follow-up encounter with SCP-8469-2 during a Krísis event in a county jail located in Houston,Texas. Further investigation into the anomaly resulted in the discovery of various historical accounts that seemingly depict SCP-8469-1 and SCP-8469-2 differently across many periods in history3. Analysis of data regarding SCP-8469 has also revealed that the amount of activity displayed by the anomaly has inscreased with time, going from two-week intervals in the late 20th century, to a daily occurrence, with the change ocurring near the start of the 21st century.

Elliot, I've got a research proposal I need you to approve. It's basic, but I think it would at least confirm a couple of theories I have about the anomaly.
Basically, I would like to have myself, and other researchers analyze the body of the next victim if they happen to occur in another site. I know the risk SCP-8469-2 poses, but from what we've seen, the entity won't attack us as long as we don't "interfere" with the punishment process.

Addendum 8469-03: Incident 8469-B
VIDEO LOG
DATE: 10/28/2023
NOTE: A Krísis event was reported to have been taking place at Foundation Site-666, wherein Senior Researcher Alvarez found himself to be stationed at the time. Following the acceptance of his research proposal by Senior Researcher Marshall, he and a group of five other personnel (three researchers and two guards), took the SCP-8469-A instance into a test chamber to analyze the instance's body.
[BEGIN LOG]
21:30:05: Dr. Alvarez and his team wheel SCP-8469-A into the test chamber, proceeding to attach multiple medical instruments and monitoring tools before exiting towards the observation room.
22:45:52: No change with the SCP-8469-A instance. Dr. Colin paces across the room and appears to be nervous. He asks Dr. Alvarez a question, to which he shakes his head and gives a response. Dr. Colin appears upset after the response.
23:15:30: No change with the instance. Dr. Colin appears visibly shaken and nervous. He asks Dr. Alvarez another question to which he shakes his head again. He turns to speak with the other members of the group but they all either ignore him or look uncomfortable at what he says.
23:55:37: Dr. Colin approaches one of the two security personnel guarding the entrance to the chamber and asks him a question. When he shakes his head, the researcher pulls out a scalpel from his coat pocket and stabs both personnel on their legs. Dr. Colin proceeds to hastily attempt to input the code to the testing chamber before he is tackled by Dr. Alvarez. While the two researchers grapple, the downed agents recover and manage to restrain Dr. Colin.
23:58:29: Medical assistance arrives to treat the injured personnel, and other security agents take away Dr. Colin for questioning. The junior researcher continues yelling and reaching for the testing chamber as he is taken away.
24:00:10: SCP-8469-2 manifests. All personnel evacuate and SCP-8469-A is promptly killed in the aftermath.

A few bruises here and there but otherwise fine, thanks for asking.
Anyways, I did find some data, or rather lack of data, that helps prove my theory. The victim's brainwaves stayed stable and unchanging throughout the entire event, no physical reaction to the cold temperatures, and seemingly no other physical or mental side effects. Except for the aforementioned symptoms, as well as the "permanent" REM stage throughout the event, the victims are for all intents and purposes "fine".
This lack of any significant change is not usually present with "dream based" anomalies, which means that these entities are different. I believe that they are not residing in dreams, but rather use them to infiltrate the target's minds and take them somwhere else.

I forgot to mention, I did some research on Dr. Colin and what he'd been doing prior to the incident, and I found out that a few days ago he'd been reading some of the historical documents we recently found. Maybe that's what got him stressed out.
Speaking of, do you think we should implement the waking up of the D-class as part of the procedure, it would be saving their lives (for the time being), and it might assuage some of the stresses on the working researchers.

That could be a possibility, I'll review the content of the documents in case he could've found something we missed early on. In regards to your suggestion, I'll have to deny your request. We must keep the tests consistent and uniform. Waking up the D-class could be dangerous not only because it might lead to in altered results, but also the randomness of the SCP-8469-A awakenings and entity manifestations.

Addendum 8469-04: Historical Documentations
- Diary Entry 1945
- Conquistador's Letter 1520
- Chronicle Excerpt and Artistic Depiction
- Manuscript Text
July 30 1945
Something is wrong with me, there has to be. There must've been something wrong with the medicine. I knew I shouldn't have taken it, I should've just fought through the pain. That wouldn't explain the hand though… I probably sound crazy, if I'm not already. I just have to write this down, get it out of my chest, otherwise I think I'll go mad.
Last night something odd happened. I remember stashing away my most recent haul between the floorboards before I headed off to bed, but then waking up a few minutes later for no reason. I wasn't in the house anymore, instead, I was in a courtroom like the one I'd been in a couple of years ago. There were also three giant wooden thrones, and three giant women sitting on each of them. One was small, with long hair that resembled a starry night sky, and a glittering white dress, another, in the middle, looked oddly like the judge from the trial in 39', except for the mask and gender of course. The last one, on the left, well she'd be right at home on All Hallows Eve. She was basically a ghost made of black smoke, wore a grim reaper cloak and everything!
After I noticed them on the thrones, the one in the middle spoke to me, saying I was in "The Hall of Penance", then spitting a whole spiel about "guilty" and "justice for commited crimes" or whatever. I asked the women who they were, but all they told me was that they were the "Judge", "Jury", and "Executioner". Great, as if human judges weren't enough of a pain already. I tried telling them that the only reason I stole these days was survival. It's not my fault no one wants to hire me, and it certainly isn't my fault that stealing is the only way to feed myself these days, but they didn't even listen!
I guess I didn't really realize how screwed I was until the spooky one began suggesting my arms be cut off. Naturally, I panicked and argued against the punishment, but apparently my pleas mean bollocks to her since I'm just "lowly scum". While I continued to argue with dark and gloomy, I also caught a glimpse of the smallest one. I don't know if it was just me, but I thought I saw her try to speak to the cloaked one a few times, but was constantly drowned out by our yelling. She was very small compared to the other two, and despite her pristine looks, she looked extremely sad and abandoned. I swear, no one I've seen my whole life has looked as sad as that woman, and it's not like things are any pretty back home either.
Eventually, the woman in the judge's clothing brought down her gavel and told us to quiet down. Of course, I did what I was told, all the while the three of 'em began to whisper amongst themselves. They spoke in a language I've never heard before, so I can't tell what exactly they were talking about, probably me, though the little one didn't say anything. Despite this, they eventually ended their gossip and announced that I would be returned home a free man, but that I would also be branded so everyone knew what I did. Before I could argue again, the judge brought down the gavel and I woke up on my mattress back home.
At first, I thought it was a nightmare, but then I noticed the room was cold, really cold. Before I could even question it though, the one in the black cloak appeared out of nowhere and pinned me to the ground. I tried to fight back but my kicks and flails went through the damn thing. The worst part though, was when a third arm grew out of the ghost's side and slowly carved some weird words into my forearms. It felt like my arms were being burned to the bone, hell, I still feel the pain now. By the end of the torture I could barely move, and that ghastly woman was nowhere to be seen. I don't know when, but at some point I must have passed out too. I still don't know what that thing was, and I don't care to, I just know that if I don't want to see it again I'll have to fix up my life. Maybe this is the push I need to get my mechanic shop up and running again, a sign from God or whatever. If what's now on my arm is a "brand" though, then it's a really shite one, I can't even understand what it says: κακοῦργος.
Notes: The entry presented above was part of a longer diary belonging to a man named Mordecai Schmidt, whose journal was found by his grandson, Researcher Thomas Schmidt. Following the mention of a possible third entity, henceforth dubbed SCP-8469-3, efforts to find more historical documents mentioning the anomalies began, resulting in the discoveries of most of the documents seen below. The words carved into Mordecai's forearms roughly translate to "criminal" in Greek.

Colin was inexperienced, a lot of junior researchers have a tendency to let the anomalous get to their heads, at least until they find their footing. However, if you really feel this anomaly is affecting you mentally, take some time off, I can't have you working on dangerous anomalies half asleep.
In regards to the Ds, interference is still prohibited. Having the Krísis event take place in a location we can monitor easily allows for greater control over the whole anomaly. If researchers keep reporting mental and physical distress, we can have them rotate with new personnel every few weeks.

Addendum 8469-05: Incident 8469-C
INCIDENT REPORT
INCIDENT #: 8469-C
DATE OF OCCURRENCE: 03/21/2024
Around the hours of 3:00 AM, following detection of a Krísis event ocurring in the home of Senior Researcher Harold Birkin in [REDACTED], various MTF agents were deployed towards the senior researcher's location in order to intercept the event as fast as possible. Despite their attempts to reach the residence before the event could end, their efforts were impeded by a severe tropical storm that had been taking place at the time. When the agents were able to reach the location, researcher Birkin was nowhere to be found.
Twenty minutes after the Krísis event was first recorded, researcher Birkin was found to have suddenly appeared in a vacuum quarantine chamber in Foundation Site-45, wearing an oxygen mask with two air tanks connected via tubes. When on-site personnel realized his whereabouts and tried to free him, he frantically yelled for them to not open the doors to his chamber, as he had been exposed to a sample of SCP-009. The personnel who tried to free him also noticed that the researcher had a stab wound in the lower left section of his torso infected with samples of SCP-009. Following this discovery, an interview between Dr. Birkin and Dr. Alvarez was arranged.

Foundation Activity Report
Site 45 has demonstrated a sharp and intense decrease in activity, around 50%, as well as in the mental well being of all personnel located at the site, around 80%. This extreme change in productivity can be associated with recent developments concerning SCP-8469, whose containment is currently being handled by Senior Researcher Elliot Marshall. Reduction in productivity and mental well being of staff on other sites, while being less drastic, is still lower than expected statistics, and can also be attributed to the spreading of information regarding SCP-8469. Proper countermeasures for these effects are currently being discussed.

INDIVIDUALS PRESENT: D. Marshall, Dr. Alvarez
FOREWORD: The following events take place seven hours before Dr. Marshall makes a project proposal to the O5 Council concerning the aftermath of Incident 8469-C, as well as the effects it had on Foundation personnel afterwards.
[Begin Transcript]
<Dr. Marshall is seen sitting at his desk preparing documents concerning the project proposal. The doors to the office open and Dr. Alvarez walks in. He bears symptoms of severe sleep deprivation, constantly looking around the room and slowly swaying his body as he stands.>
Dr. Alvarez: H-Hey Elliot, when's your meeting with the council?
Dr. Marshall: In a couple of hours, I've told you this before. Are you okay Marcus?
Dr. Alvarez: No, but that doesn't matter. What matters is that whatever your project is, it'll help stop this anomaly soon. Speaking of, what's the project about?
<Dr. Marshall looks uneasy. He looks from the papers on his desk to Dr. Alvarez.>
Dr. Marshall: Marcus, I think you should go.
Dr. Alvarez: What do you mean?
Dr. Marshall: You look like you haven't slept in weeks. You are not okay. I think you should take a break.
Dr. Alvarez: You are right about one thing, I haven't been sleeping a whole lot, but trust me, I'm okay. You got me onto this anomaly for a reason, and I'm going to help whatever way I can. Besides, once we get this anomaly under control, I'll be able to sleep soundly again.
Dr. Marshall: You can help by getting some sleep. In this state of mind you won't be helping anyone. So please just go home and rest..
<Dr. Alvarez begins to get agitated.>
Dr. Alvarez: I can't rest Elliot! Not when those things could come at any moment and kill me in my sleep!
Dr. Marshall: …
Dr. Alvarez: (Sighs) Sorry. Just… for my peace of mind. What did you find? How is this project going to help us?
Dr. Marshall: Mass amnesticization of personnel. Following that, all information will be classified to a higher clearance and efforts will be made to research and possibly find more data on SCP-8469-3.
Dr. Alvarez: What?
Dr. Marshall: I will also ask for more personnel to be embedded in law enforcement and judicial systems in order to maintain control on the overall criminal population.
Dr. Alvarez: Are you kidding me Marshall?
Dr. Marshall: That's the best we can do right now. I'm sorry.
Dr. Alvarez: Sorry? Sorry?! Are you insane? Do you seriously think the best way to deal with this shit is to make everyone forget?
Dr. Marshall: Yes, and you should too. Just look at yourself! If everyone else in the Foundation learns about the anomaly, just imagine what could happen.
Dr. Alvarez: Stop treating this like it's some kind of fucking disease, and start actually working towards capturing the entities responsible for this in the first place!
<Dr. Alvarez begins to get agitated. He paces around the room eratically.>
Dr. Marshall: It may not be a disease, but if you or any other of our researchers stopped acting like children, you would realize that it must be treated as such.
Dr. Alvarez: What?! So you think wanting to stop these killer entities is acting like children?
Dr. Marshall: No, but being unable to face the consequences of your actions with dignity is.
<Dr. Alvarez stops moving. He stares at Dr. Marshall with an expression of anger.>
Dr. Marshall: Do you think I'm ignorant to why everyone has been acting the way they are? It's because they can't handle facing the consequences of this job. It's easy when you have to send a criminal into the jaws of a monster and just record what happens, but not so much when the monster turns its eyes to you. It's only now that they realize how much danger that monster truly poses to them.
<Dr. Alvarez begins trembling.>
Dr. Marshall: I know being part of this organization isn't a walk in the park. Everyone here has had to, and will have to, do terrible shit in order to keep humanity alive. I know it, you know it, and everyone else who works here knows it. But if you don't have the guts or the dignity to pay the price for humanity's safety, then you should've left this organization the day you realized what we do to the D-class personnel.
<Dr. Alvarez shudders and, without warning, lunges towards Dr. Marshall. Dr. Marshall moves out of the way and presses a button underneath his desk. Dr. Alvarez yells incoherently as he continues reaching for Dr. Marshall. After a few seconds, security personnel enter the office and restrain Dr. Alvarez. He continues to yell and thrash around as he is detained by the agents.>

PROJECT JUSTITIA
INITIAL PROPOSAL
Purpose: Restrict access to any and all information relating to SCP-8469 for personnel below the required clearance, thereby preventing personnel from being negatively impacted by the knowledge of the anomaly. Following this, the secondary purpose of Project Justitia will be the mitigation and alleviation of SCP-8469's Krísis events through the control and management of law enforcement and judicial systems, as well as the continued search for SCP-8469-3.
Methodology: The first phase of Project Justitia will consist of increasing the security clearance required to access the article to Level 5. Any personnel who will be working on the anomaly after Project Justitia's enactment will be hand selected by Dr. Elliot Marshall and the O5 Council following a thorough vetting process and investigation into their work ethic, past, and loyalty to the goals of the Foundation.
Through detailed analysis of Foundation systems, all personnel who are found to have accessed SCP-8469's file or possess knowledge about the anomaly without having Level 5 clearance, or being granted level 8469/5 clearance, are to be provided Class C amnestics before being returned to active duty. Following this, the next phase of Project Justitia is to be enacted, wherein specifically chosen agents and personnel are embedded in law enforcement agencies, governments, and judicial systems across the world.
While no direct correlation has been found between the activity of SCP-8469 and the rising crime rates, it can be deduced that by promoting and enforcing laws that result in less criminal activity, as well as ensuring that the judicial process is carried out equally for all parties, activity of SCP-8469 should be diminished greatly. Having agents in these systems would also provide greater control over the existing criminal population, making finding SCP-8469-A's significantly easier. This phase of the project is to be maintained indefinitely.
The final phase of the project will consist of the continued search and recovery of SCP-8469-3. Due to the "human alligned" interest demonstrated by the entity in historical data, finding and possibly recovering SCP-8469-3 will be considered a top priority moving forward. The enlistment of several Foundation thaumaturgists, as well as MTF Omicron Rho (The Dream Team), is recommended in order to find possible anomalous means of finding, recovering, or "resurrecting" SCP-8469-3.
Due to his recent actions, as well as past demonstrations of mental instability and unproffesionalism, the removal of Dr. Marcus Alvarez from the project once he recovers from the detrimental effects of severe sleep deprivation, malnutrition, and mental strain, is strongly recommended.

Addendum 8469-06: Project Justitia Update
Notice to All Project Justitia Personnel
Following the unfortunate passing of Dr. Marshall in the most recent Krísis event, as well as a lack of a chosen successor, a new project lead will be hand selected by members of the O5 Council by the end of the week. Until then, the rest of the project objectives are to be executed as delineated in the proposal, with all results and information being provided directly to the O5 Council. Information regarding the circumstances of Dr. Marshalls death are classified to Project Justitia personnel only, and any violation of this order will be met with summary termination.
Due to an increase in Foundation personnel being selected as SCP-8469-A instances, as denoted with the previous two Krísis events, personnel belonging to Project Justitia are to provide daily updates about the times and locations where they sleep for the foreseeable future.
Special Containment Procedures: Any personnel displaying signs of mental distress or long-term sleep deprivation due to working on the anomaly are to be reported immediately to Dr. Elliot Marshall (replacement pending), or the O5 Council. Following this, they will be evaluated, and either amnesticized and transferred to another anomaly, or given a two week relieve from the project. No exceptions are to be made regarding personnel. Due to the possibility of Foundation destabilization, if any personnel are found attempting to leak or spread information regarding the anomaly without authorization of the O5 Council, then they are to be terminated and thoroughly discredited.
Due to SCP-8469-1 and SCP-8469-2's elusive nature as well as their residency outside of the physical plane, containment is currently unfeasable. As such, priority is placed on response measures as well as concealment. When a Krísis event is detected on Foundation satellites, the nearest agent to the area of the event must be contacted and deployed to reach and awaken the afflicted individual by all means at their disposal.
At the conclusion of the event, any nearby witnesses are to be provided Class A amnestics, as well as a cover story about the target individual. If the target survives the event, then they should be taken in for questioning, after which they will be provided Class B amnestics and monitored for the forseeable future.
