アイテム番号: SCP-2255
オブジェクトクラス: Euclid
特別収容手順: SCP-2255は現在、太平洋フェニックス諸島北方の財団所有の島に駐留(residence)しています。SCP-2255の活動を監視し報告するために、島の南岸に研究拠点が設立されます。At 最低一人のレベル3職員および、三人のレベル2職員が 拠点に常駐し、最寄の財団収容サイトとの連絡を維持する必要があります。SCP-2255に割り当てられる全ての研究スタッフは、生物学(具体的には植物学)または心理学の経歴を持っている必要があります。
20人のDクラス職員と5人の財団保安員が指定された居住地域の島に駐留し、地域社会の機能を維持するための日々の任務に割り当てられます。SCP-2255の明白な創造者への崇拝を装うため、乾燥ハイビスカスおよびハイビスカス茶がSCP-2255の面前で定常的に消費しなければならず、さらにDクラスは日の出とともに採取した5つの新鮮な花をSCP-2255のために用意された寺院へensureしなければなりません。 D-Class personnel are to refrain from engaging in conversation with SCP-2255; any discussion with the anomaly is to be carried out by Foundation researchers. Personnel interacting with SCP-2255 are to adopt a tone of respect to ensure its continued cooperation.
Each month a survey of the island’s hibiscus population is to be done; resources will be distributed for replenishment should the flower count be observed depleted.
Description: SCP-2255 is a localized weather phenomenon that takes the shape of a cumulus humilis cloud measuring roughly three meters at longest. SCP-2255 is sapient and capable of speech, generally speaking English in a low-pitched male voice. It has claimed to be a creation and an envoy of a flower goddess (See Addendum SCP-2255-2).
SCP-2255’s average altitude ranges from five to twenty meters, though during cloudy or overcast days it tends to hover close to the island’s trees (See Addendum SCP-2255-3). Though SCP-2255 is able to move independently, its maximum observed speed is 15 km/h. Despite its claims of capacity for divine wrath, SCP-2255 has yet to cause harm to any human being.
SCP-2255’s presence is accompanied by a strong aroma, often compared to that of floral perfume. SCP-2255 has additionally exhibited instances of anomalous precipitation, including:
- raining a concentrated fructose and water solution
- “snowing” frost-covered hibiscus petals
- hailing princess-cut diamonds (ranging from 1 to 2 cm in diameter)
Addendum SCP-2255-1: SCP-2255 was initially discovered near the Hawaiian Islands, attempting to gather followers from the local population by reciting popular advertising slogans used by various commercial companies. Foundation operatives intervened and administered amnestics to those who came into contact with SCP-2255, and persuaded it (using the lure of an existing devout population) to relocate. SCP-2255’s journey to its current location was monitored by Foundation aircraft and research personnel were dispatched to the island prior to SCP-2255’s departure.
Addendum SCP-2255-2: SCP-2255 has, as of ██/██/████, taken to remaining close to the shrine constructed to its alleged deity. As the entity had habitually “patrolled” the island prior to this time, an interview was conducted to determine the change in behavior.
Interview Log SCP-2255-█-███
Dr. Kiryu is sitting on a large stone with recording equipment set up next to him. SCP-2255 hovers overhead roughly 3 meters from the ground, occasionally rising and returning to its average altitude.
Dr. Kiryu: Thank you for meeting with me, emissary of the vibrant flower goddess. Will you please tell me why you remain exclusively in the company of the shrine?
SCP-2255: My creator, master of the sky water and sea flowers, is weary. And I am not at my full strength when I am far from the offerings given to her.
Dr. Kiryu: Do tell. There are no songs yet about the true extent of your power.
SCP-2255: My might stems from my goddess. She is beauty incarnate and worthy of adulation. Should she wish it, my rain will flood your cities and my frost will decimate your fragile blossoms.
Dr. Kiryu: And she has told you the depth of her full powers?
SCP-2255: [pause] No, but she has seen so many of your so-called “ads” and created me, thus her knowledge must be unparalleled and her powers infinite. She deserves more praise.
Dr. Kiryu: The people have noticed that you rain sugar water. Is this a power of your goddess?
SCP-2255: I don’t always rain wine, you see.
Dr. Kiryu: Ah, indeed. So you are bestowed these powers to act as your lady’s messenger?
SCP-2255: My lady was dissatisfied with her standing, as her four ostentatious older sisters were held in higher regard than her loveliness despite their various shortcomings. She would show them her worth through me.
Dr. Kiryu: It is unfortunate, for her to be treated that way. Did she create you to show man as well what she was capable of?
SCP-2255: Kokio, deity of vibrant flowers, beauty unparalleled, studied the persuasive techniques of man and used the knowledge to shape me into what I have now become, to act as her emissary and speak to her worshippers in her stead. She in her generosity thinks of those who follow her and endeavors to communicate in a familiar manner.
Dr. Kiryu: If I may ask, cloud nimbus of the flower goddess, what are you exactly?
SCP-2255: I may not be on a horse or a boat, but I am the most interesting rainstorm in the world.
Addendum SCP-2255-3: When questioned regarding its habit of descending to lower altitudes when there were other clouds visible in the sky, SCP-2255 replied that it “was not interested in inciting undue ire” should the other clouds notice its presence. SCP-2255 further insisted vehemently and preemptively that it was “not hiding from anyone who may challenge the goddess”.
Addendum SCP-2255-4: On ██/██/████, SCP-2255 left its resting place at the shrine and began circling the perimeter of the island, loudly chanting several slogan-like phrases including “Hail Kokio! She’s the Kokio-est!”, “Trust in the flower goddess: just do it”, and “got hibiscus?” while depositing large volumes of granulated sugar as it passed. After 5 hours of this behavior, SCP-2255 returned to the shrine and remained stationary until the next day. ██ similar incidents have occurred since the initial incident, with SCP-2255 exclaiming different slogans each time.
