A large collection of children have been found to have anomalous effects, enough to get the attention of the SCP Foundation. Crossposted on AO3

11. SCP 234

Item #: SCP-234

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-234 is to be held in a standard 5m x 5m containment unit with bed, bath, and medical facilities.

All personnel entering SCP-234's containment unit are to wear sound blocking headphones and to avoid prolonged eye contact with SCP-234 at all costs.

Description: SCP-234 appears to be a boy approximately 11 or 12 years old, with black hair, wearing a number 8 hockey jersey, hockey shoes, a plastic yellow crown from an unknown brand, and carries a wooden hockey stick.

SCP-234 anomalous properties manifest in the ability to command anyone between the ages of 2 and 13. Anyone who hears SCP-234 have an overwhelming compulsion to follow whatever order's SCP-234 gives them, including commands that would cause them physical harm or death.

When in the vicinity of someone he wishes to control SCP-234 will point to the subject and give a command. 60% of those under SCP-234's influence reported not following SCP-234's commands willingly. The remaining 40% have very little memory of following SCP-234's commands.

SCP-234 is able to use this ability on groups upwards of 200, as well as specific individuals within a crowd.

Subject: SCP-234 and SCP-414

Preface: SCP-234 was brought into SCP-3344's containment unit. All methods of recovery for SCP-3344 in the event of a containment breach are to be explored.

Results: SCP-234 appears to be taken aback by SCP-3344, though doesn't make any attempt to interact. After two minutes, two instances of SCP-3344 approach SCP-234, grabbing and pulling him to bring him over to the other. SCP-234 then states "leave me alone". The two instances of SCP-3344 immediately returned to the rest.

One instance of SCP-3344, SCP-3344-1, approaches SCP-234 after ten minutes. SCP-3344-1 is noted to wear what appears to be a paper crown. SCP-3344-1 appears to argue with SCP-234 for two minutes. SCP-234 rises and hits the end of his hockey stick with the ground. SCP-3344-1 returns to the crowd.

Subject: SCP-234 and SCP-1009

Preface: SCP-1009 is brought into SCP-234 containment unit. SCP-1009 is thoroughly searched for all items. This experiment is brought about when several researchers noted the similar abilities of the two SCP's.

Results: SCP-234 and SCP-1009 appear to recognize each other. SCP-1009 approaches SCP-234, and the two begin a conversation. After five minutes, SCP-234 gives SCP-1009 a command to leave. SCP-1009 appears to not fall under SCP-234's anomalous effects. SCP-234 repeats the action and again, SCP-1009 does not fall under his influence. SCP-234 doesn't appear to be upset about this. Testing ended after 2 hours, and SCP-1009 was returned to containment.
