The Forbidden City, Peking. Site in which the definition of SCP-001 and ratification of the Forbidden City Convention occurred.

Item #: SCP-001

Object Class: Euclid

Clearance Designation: Level 5

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-001 cannot be secured or contained conventionally, and it is unknown if it may occur in the future. As such, a reactive approach is to be adopted. Said approach consists of the following Chapters of the Forbidden City Convention:


 * 1) Prevention and minimisation of the conditions conductive to the possible occurrence of SCP-001 or its equivalent via Forbidden City Convention Chapter I.
 * 2) Management of organisational transition and unity following implementation of Forbidden City Convention Chapter I, via Forbidden City Convention Chapters II and III respectively.

All above mentioned Chapters of the Forbidden City Convention are not to be altered, unless via a unanimous vote by the O5 Council.

Description: SCP-001 is a successful occurrence of a CK-class restructuring scenario, which generated the current reality via alteration of a previous iteration of reality. Based on first-person accounts, SCP-001 occurred on the 1st of June in the year 1900 Anno Domini of the previous reality. The nature of SCP-001 is such that all causes, events, references and memories of Occult War i (referred to as the 'Fifth Occult War' in the previous reality) are omitted and replaced with various anomalous and non-anomalous parallels in the current reality.

Foundation documentation regarding Occult War i is obtained from anecdotal accounts of thirteen non-anomalous human beings who retain their memories of the previous reality via a phenomenon coined as 'partial SCP-001 immunity'. However, the mechanism behind partial SCP-001 immunity is unknown and will not be assessed, as decided by the O5 Council. Efforts to identify additional individuals (if any) with partial SCP-001 immunity are on indefinite hiatus, as decided by the O5 Council.

Below is an abridged list of events during Occult War i and plausible analogous events in the current reality; see Document OWi for an expanded list.

The cause and origin of SCP-001 are unknown and cannot be ascertained. It is unknown if SCP-001 or its equivalent have occurred prior to its known occurrence or may ever occur in the future. Additionally, it is unknown if SCP-001 represents a typical or atypical occurrence of a CK-class restructuring scenario. In the event that SCP-001 or its equivalent has occurred or will occur, it is speculated that a majority (if not, all) of Mankind and/or sapient entities will have no recollection of them or the events prior to the moment of occurrence. It cannot be ascertained if partial SCP-001 immunity is applicable to future occurrences of SCP-001 or its equivalent.

The definition of SCP-001 was finalised by the O5 Council in a 5-4-4 vote, and the Forbidden City Convention was ratified on the 7th of September in the year 1901 Anno Domini.

Addendum 1: Excerpts from the Forbidden City Convention

CHAPTER I: THE FOUNDATION

The following organisations are to be dissolved and disavowed from their respective patrons, and their personnel and resources are to undergo merger:


 * Her Majesty's Foundation for the Secure Containment of the Paranormal
 * Estate noir
 * Tsars' Seers
 * Kaiserliches Deutsches Prüfamt für Paranormale Angelegenheiten (KDPPA)
 * American Secure Containment Initiative
 * Imperial Commission on Transgressive Occurrences
 * Royal Office for Christian Artefacts
 * Special Investigations Board, Council of the Dutch East Indies
 * Inner Africa Expeditionary Society
 * The Knights of the Military Order of Borja y Aragón
 * Bureau of Onmyō (陰陽寮)
 * Abnormality Institute (異學會)
 * 0th Anti-Cult Regiment

In their place, a unitary organisation is to be established.

The mission of this unitary organisation is to secure and contain various anomalous objects in order to protect Mankind from said objects.

The referent for this unitary organisation is agreed to be the 'Foundation'; the following alternative referents (i.e. 'Institute', 'Organisation', 'Organization' and 'Front') have been proposed and rejected.

The aforementioned thirteen organisations in which the Foundation is formed from is henceforth designated as 'Foundation precursor'.

CHAPTER II: THE O5 COUNCIL

The provisional executive administration of the Foundation is to consist of an executive council composed of thirteen individuals from each of Foundation precursor.

The aforementioned thirteen individuals of this executive council were selected due to the following criteria:


 * Leadership position in respective Foundation precursor.
 * Possession of memory regarding Occult War i.

Future members of this executive council are not required to possess both of the above mentioned qualities.

The referent for this executive council is agreed to be the 'O5 Council'; the following alternative referents (i.e. 'Overseers Committee', 'Level 5 Council' and 'O5 Command') have been proposed and rejected.

The function of the O5 Council is to facilitate initial transition from Foundation precursors.

Each O5 Council member is designated with a Roman numeral ranging from One to Thirteen.

Other organisations merged into the Foundation henceforth are to be denied representation on the O5 Council.

CHAPTER III: GROUPS OF INTEREST

Organisations with awareness of anomalous phenomena that are not subsumed under Foundation control are hereby designated as 'Groups of Interest'.

The Foundation's default approach towards Groups of Interest is to pursue for their dissolution, termination and/or assimilation of their personnel and resources.
