    I missed a week as I had to build and test my new PC, super excited to be almost back to full production power! Also, Big news … The return of the text crawl!! - thanks to "OhhCrapGuy" one of my Ethics committee patrons. He has single headedly written a piece of software (called ACID - one of my ideas for Dr. Millar's AI assistant back in the day) for me that allows me to generate the text crawls so it doesn't take me hours at a time. I honestly can't think him enough and I'm so happy to have the text crawl back in my videos … the videos look right again. I hope you agree - send the developer some love because I'm sure he's bored hearing it from me.

      I have to give credit to the Whisper developers, who created the AI engine and models that ACID uses, without their work, I could not have created this tool, or at least it would have been several orders of magnitude more difficult.
      I tremendously enjoyed collaborating with @TheVolgun on this, and I hope it feels like home once more for everyone, as it does for me.

      This is what I understood from the article, the Mysterium is a piece that was meant to be played at end of human civilization as a sort of mercy kill that wipes the slate clean for the next great civilization. However the entity, which is implied to be related to the Scarlet King, that helped create the Mysterium wishes it played immediately and this somehow helps the scarlet king, I think, gonna need to watch it a few more times to properly understand what is going on

    • @myersa80
      @myersa80 11 місяців тому +164

      The Mysterium was indeed created to be a sort of mercy kill for humanity to help them go as painlessly as possible if the end of the world were to ever be known about ahead of time, to make way for the next civilization that would come after us. Due to the scarlet king’s influence, however, he infected the ritual with a number of extra abilities that the original intention did not have. This includes weakening the parameters that govern reality around earth, allowing a number of hostile entities that have been seeking to enter our reality to have a much easier time bypassing the defenses that have been placed around the earth either by its natural defenses or by the foundation. In particular, this especially includes the scarlet king, who is an entity that has been seeking entry into earth, in order to essentially doom and destroy it all for his own reasons.

      This is what I understood:
      The ritual goal was to be SCP 001 (the day of flowers) where humanity will have a mercy kill when the actual extinction of humanity will be unavoidable, but foolish of him because he only acepted the first god help he can encounter and you know "the farther the best reward possible" (and more weird and dangerous) and in his ABSOLUTE WORST possible god he encounters he find Khahrahk itself, but now the ritual is corrupted just because of the god influence, just by staying there the king has corrupted the "option for the mercy kill and another life form will begin" to "everything is going to be destroyed so badly, that there is no other life, just death".
      I was wandering why that entire coalition will kill any serpent's hand member in the site but with that "angel" that was no longer a guess. Those children are still in the game but very VERY good cosplaying serpents hand.

      I think the original intention of the spell was supposed to be to somehow "reset" humanity so that in the face of an impending apocalypse humanity could have a restart, or at least as painless of a death/reset as possible. But the scarlet king corrupted it in order to bring about said predicted apocalypse, and the wizard believes that said apocalypse is inevitable no matter what, but while evil the scarlet king embodies chaos and impossibilities. Basically if the end comes now no matter what, might as well see it through with a being/spell that has the potential to at least allow for a restart after the end.

This makes this SCP the first article known to me that incorporates the lore of Project: Paragon, and for that, it fills me with joy! The incorporation of Tufto's 001 proposal makes this even better, effectively serving as a lynchpin to tie this all together!

      It also passes on the EXACT knowledge of how to destroy any/all of reality... And should that knowledge fail to be secured, contained and protected (and/or should an agent dedicated to the S.C.P. side of things come to decide that knowledge is the true path, and the correct choice to bring about the actual end to the eternal back and forth, the struggle between/the opposition of "full speed ahead to the apocalypse" and "prevent that at all costs") Dog help us all - uh, I mean God help us all to understand that from the right perspective, D-O-G spells "cat" and fuck the struggle in and of itself because THAT is what contains even the POSSIBILITY of oblivion, and the only sure way to ensure un-reality/nothing CANNOT exist.

      SCP doesn't have to be horror, though? And anyway, if you need your protagonist to have agency, I would argue your definition of horror is wrong. Some horror is punishing people for bad choices. A lot of it, though, is about bad things happening to good people. Like, by your definition, cosmic horror can't be horror because it's all about being too small to have any significance to a god-like entity.

      @@ashcombrink4998 I mean, there are some scp's that are just a pun. I forget the number, but the "Plane Doughnut" makes planes trapped on a pastry. There are even "good" scps and "slice of life" scps, but the majority of the body of work is horror. You are right in that no one owns the scp ip or can prevent anyone from posting an scp story on their blog so they do not have to be horror, fiction, supernatural, or a story. At a certain point we are not talking about the same thing if you try to make an scp story about nuns coming home for Christmas and falling in love; more hallmark than scp. There is a reason most sites that host scps have some standard for what you can post; there is some adherence to genre.
      This is trying to be horror and failing. Cosmic horror needs either a downfall the character does not realize yet, a flash of hope that is let down, or to reveal the Doom over time in order to have the tension that drives interest. Ie, Color out of Space follows the downfall that they cannot stop and it does not reveal they are all doomed till it is too late because the reader is learning about the phenomenon as they go... what is this color, is it sentient, is it radiation? For a little hope that is removed, you have a slasher format: the killer is loose and they are physical enough to be stopped in theory but no one manages to do it. For revealing horror over time, the Thing ends with them killing the Thing but being unable to survive the artic. We do not think about this till after the Thing is already dead because we are focused on the conflict with the Thing and Curt Russle; the Doom is only revealed at the end and they were dead from the start but they do not learn this till the end. In all three cases, you have a less interesting story if your protagonist establishes their own Doom as they lack motivation to do anything.
      This one was not offensively bad as I have seen some that were written by people who did not know how to write a story or use English grammar, but it is "plane doughnut" level of bad.

      this article is practically on the low end of the complexity scale compared to the aforementioned articles and others.

    This isn’t relevant to this video but I still feel the need to say it…
    I recently discovered the whole SCP universe through UA-cam videos. And I must say… your depiction of the Plague Doctor was absolutely incredible. And I don’t mean just by Internet standards. It was a great performance.
    I’ve watched other channels’ videos on him, but it doesn’t come close to capturing the complexity that you did. You made him fully fleshed out and legitimately interesting.
    The way he seems to show legitimate remorse for killing the doctor. The way he gets flustered when seriously challenged regarding the specifics of the pestilence, the way he contradicts himself in that moment by saying “you are all sick” when he earlier said he was happy to see how little of the pestilence existed at the facility, leading one to believe the pestilence may just be his justification for murder.
    The voice, the phrasing (“Do not jape with me, sir!”), etc. it was perfect.
    My theory is that he is conflicted. At some point he became anomalous. And with this he likely gained some sort of extra sensory perception, or new senses altogether, that humans are unfamiliar with and cannot understand. This is what lets him know when one has the pestilence. And so he gets very frustrated when questioned because he can’t explain it while knowing it is true.
    At the same time, you portrayed him with some sense of vulnerability, where he deep down fears that he may be wrong. And so he needs to verbally affirm himself the way he did in the video.
    Is he someone that truly knows something we do not but can’t verbalize it due to it being beyond human understanding? Or is just a psychopath under the grip of self deception? 🤷‍♂️
    At the end of the video I found myself saying, “Is that it?! What happened next?!”, and that is the only time I have felt that way watching any SCP video.
    Anyway…. Bravo.
    P.S. Ditch that re-write shit. That’s the dumbed down version that everyone expected. When I heard he was a guy battling an unexplained pestilence, I rolled my eyes and said “It’s gonna be humanity”. I was very happy to see this was not the case with the original and in fact was much more mysterious, which is how it should stay. People who demand answers don’t understand that mystery is exactly what makes this type of stuff interesting.

    What a shame the whole SCP worldbuilding has suffered so much power inflation.
    It started out with concepts inspired by the likes of shows like the Twilight Zone or the Outer Limits, but the SCP foundation were still mostly based on what a shadow organisation behind the government could feasibly achieve through extreme financial and military resources, as well as very low ethical constraints.
    Nowadays people writing SCPs seem to mostly want to outdo each other. The SCP foundation can travel to other galaxies and dimensions at will and have divisions of psychers, wizards and cyborgs at their disposal.
    It really robs the SCP universe of its charm and is remiscent of what happened to the marvel comics. In the beginning the characters were relateable but then omega mutants with godlike powers started popping up here and there, Franklin Richards got to become god and rebuild the entire universe, and so on.
    Part of making a story interesting is knowing how to limit protagonists and antagonists, as well as keeping a healthy level of non-explanation going to not spoil the suspense and mystery.

      Indeed.
      It's usually best to have simple and easy to understand scps around.
      Because it gets people invested in it.
      If people aren't invested in it; it doesn't matter how good or ground breaking your writing is.
      People just would be too bored.

      Same with 682.
      Or 103.
      But from my experience, I am and some others are alot more invested in learning their lore and backstory.
      And now in the scp foundation we've hit the power creep/ creative creep.
      Most of the writers are trying to one up another while somewhat ignoring the old lore and the established build up of the world.
      Although it's nothing another noncannon series of scps could make.

    FOOTNOTES
    1. Avalanches are notably most common during the summer months, when snow and ice begin to loosen and melt with rising temperatures.
    2. Though overtones in neoplatonic and theosophical esotericism are the most obviously noticeable influences upon examination of SCP-7140 ritual elements, they also integrate composite elements sourced from more pre-classical world mythologies, particularly the Old Daevite religious system. Additionally, recovered notes by Scriabin mention the use of musical instruments and other artistic and cultural objects of origin in non-human extraterrestrial and extradimensional civilizations as part of performing the Mysterium.
    3. A creation of the conscious mind, such as a piece of media, capable of spreading within the noosphere that is capable of altering reality through thaumatological means when engaged with ritualistically by conscious entities. Research by the Thaumaturgistics Division and Noospherics Division to determine whether hypersigils function through narrative intervention and/or manipulation of probabilities, as is the case with most more spatially-localized sigils, is ongoing.
    4. In both the MM/DD/YY and DD/MM/YY formats, the seventh (7th) of July is expressed as “7/7”. Though the number seven (7) has proven significant in occult workings, particularly those with pertinence to SCP-001-TUFTO and related anomalies, the use of the Gregorian calendar to implement this occult symbolism seems completely arbitrary. This is likely due to the fact that SCP-7140, an anomaly that functions within the collective unconscious, manifests through the system of time used by the majority of the world (and therefore has the majority of influence in the noosphere).
    5. Measured by the Foundation of AU-7140-UK at a globally-resonant strength of 12.8 gigazöllners at stability for forty-two (42) hours.
    6. Or astral projection-based "out-of-body experience", colloquially.
    7. "Deities", colloquially.
    8. A reoccurring span of time in the history of the planet Earth, lasting exactly one day (approx. 24 hours), during which time every flower on the planet is said to simultaneously bloom in exquisite color and variety. A Day of Flowers always directly precedes a catastrophe of immense magnitude on the planet the following day, usually representing the extinction or near-extinction of one or more dominant species.
    9. Artificially Intelligent Conscript
    10. A theorized subatomic particle existing only in the noosphere and dream-space which allows lucid thoughts and intentions to interact with the fabric of mental realities in which they exist.
    11. The anomalous process by which a conscious intention is transformed from a conceptualization existing only mentally within the noospheric realm into an instance of psychic phenomena able to affect the physical world or the minds of other conscious entities.
    12. An event in anomalous history wherein a large number of Serpent’s Hand operatives, under the guidance of O5-10, defected to the Foundation. The Alexandria incident marks an important increase in anomalous knowledge accessible to the Foundation, as significant portions of the Library were allegedly stolen or copied by the defectors during the chaos and later disseminated among Foundation ranks.
    13. Mentioned texts related to the Scarlet King were provided to the Foundation by the GOC as part of an agreement between the two organizations to contain object ████ (GOC-classified KTE-2013-Kapala-Mendes, “The King’s Spears”).
    14. The Russian State Library in Moscow, a site known to bear a stable translocational gateway to the Wanderer's Library which opens during a full moon.
    15. In theosophical esotericism, a celestial logos is a deity that embodies and rules over a celestial body to which it its essence is bound, such as a specific star or planet. The logos is sometimes characterized as a spirit or consciousness belonging to the celestial body itself, affording it some form of conscious agency.
