SCP-9110-J undergoing testing at Area-61.
Special Containment Procedures:
No less than three operatives are to be placed on standby to utilize SCP-9110-J at all times. These should consist of at least one licensed crane operator, a steelwright and two certified specialists with heatproof gear. SCP-9110-J, its crane, the assigned team and a helicopter capable of airlifting them are stationed within the Area-61 General Armouries. Any Level 3 or above personnel may, with approval, request for their temporary relocation. When SCP-9110-J is installed, personnel within the affected area are to follow the GUIDING TORCH protocol to egress the building ASAP.1
Damage caused by GUIDETORCH misuse. Note the lack of scorch marks.
Description:2
SCP-9110-J is an outdoor emergency exit staircase. When installed upon a building, any non-contained instances of certain reaction will be pulled towards SCP-9110-J. This reaction, for reasons of security, shall be referred to as Reaction ɸ. Pulling is not done in a direct line towards SCP-9110-J. Instead, ɸ Reactions will be pulled in a traversable path towards itself. Depending on the intensity of the ɸ Reaction, the force at which it will be pulled towards the exit increases3. This is taken into account in the pathing, meaning that Reaction ɸ instances may attempt to traverse through obstacles they have sufficient force to break through unburdened such as walls or pits. It is currently used to aid Foundation personnel in:
- The evacuation of structures with altered or hostile topology
- Exploration of topologically complex structures confirmed to lack native Reaction ɸ.
- Inexpensive demolition via inciting Reaction ɸ and allowing it to spread.
- Gender reveal parties.
- Finding needles in haystacks.
- Evacuation of VIPs from hostage situations.
The anomaly was located in a burnt out factory in Staten Island, New York on 2026/08/12 by Agent Ford. Agent Ford was coping with disciplinary demotion due to excessive alcohol use by visiting several bars. While interacting with several of his co-alcoholics, one Amelia Sanchez made a bet that she could fly using only the items in her pocket. She then successfully propelled herself 5 meters off the ground by inciting a large ɸ Reaction. Ms. Sanchez was subsequently administered a Class G amnestic4.
