The Seraphim Array

Scranton Reality Anchor that uses a person within it. Originating from "PROJECT: Anathema." Addendum discovering its a person, O5-6 note voting on whether to adopt it into mainline SRAs.

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: All SCP-XXXX instances are to be kept on operational standby in orbit around Earth. Each station is to maintain a crew of at least 2 personnel at all times. These personnel are to be rotated every 6 months.

Personnel situated aboard are to clean the interior of their stations and ensure all systems remain operational.

Activation is prohibited for an indefinite period of time.

Description: SCP-XXXX is an array of kinetic bombardment stations in orbit around Earth. Each station utilizes altered Scranton Reality Anchors as ammunition instead of tungsten rods. All stations remain fully operational. Currently, there are 14 in orbit around the Earth.

Each station is equipped with living quarters, a small recreation center, and a command room, with a maximum occupancy of 4. Activation of SCP-XXXX requires 2 operators to simultaneously activate two switches in the command room. With all 14 stations, 86% of the planet is able to be targeted at any given moment.

SCP-XXXX was discovered when a previously unknown room in the basement of Area-17 was found during site expansion efforts. The room served as both an archive and launch room for all SCP-XXXX instances. The room had suffered from significant fire damage, rendering most of the archives lost and the launch computers dysfunctional. This damage has since been repaired.

The recovered documents refer to SCP-XXXX as the 'SERAPHIM Array' and that the array was completed sometime prior to 2013 in accordance with "PROJECT: Anathema." Other directives are mentioned within the scope of this project, although due to significant damage and decay, details on these directives are sparse to none.

Subject: SERAPHIM Debriefing

Attached are the requirements that have been determined for choosing SERAPH pilots. It is expected that recruitment begins as soon as possible to ensure that the SERAPHIM is fully staffed by 06/15/35.

Further incursions are expected to occur within the month following this date with an estimated accuracy of 95%. These incursions are expected to be the largest to date.

Should the SERAPHIM fail to be operational by then, all current fronts are expected to be breached.

Also attached is the debrief to be given to each candidate chosen.

While I understand what's at stake here, I'm not sure I can do these. The recruitment requirements are ridiculous and the debrief is outright cruel.
I do not think I can complete this task under these conditions, especially not when the remote operation facilities exist.

Do I need to remind you what happened to Massachusetts?

The rituals required to be undertaken aboard each SERAPH are specific in what they require and we cannot risk another accident.
Understand that everything we do right now we are doing because the alternative is extinction.

If you are unable to fulfill these requirements, then we will find somebody who will.

ALERT!

THIS IS A LEVEL 4, SITE WIDE ALERT.

THE FRONT HAS BEEN BREACHED.

LEVEL 4 PERSONNEL STILL WITHIN THE FACILITY ARE TO MAKE THEIR WAY TOWARDS THE EVACUATION CENTER.

FOR ALL OTHER PERSONNEL, IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT THOSE WITH EXISTING FAMILIAL CONNECTIONS SELF-TERMINATE.

FOR ALL REMAINING PERSONNEL, THE FOUNDATION RECOGNIZES WHAT YOU HAVE ALREADY SACRIFICED. YOUR FINAL ORDERS ARE TO ARM YOURSELF HOWEVER YOU CAN AND TO HOLD THE LINE.

WE WILL TRY TO RECOVER YOU AS SOON AS IS POSSIBLE.
