项目编号： SCP-7037
项目等级： Safe
特殊收容措施： SCP-7037 应被存放在位于Site-37存储区的经过奇术强化的储物柜中；除非得到至少一名 O5 议会成员的特别批准，否则该储物柜应始终与基准现实断开连接，以尽量减少其对现实概率的影响。1SCP-7037 is to be contained in a thaumaturgically augmented storage locker located in the Storage Wing of Site-37; unless otherwise approved by at least one member of the O5 Council, this locker is to be disconnected from baseline reality at all times to minimize its influence of probabilistic reality.[[fnote]]Refers to the baseline probabilities of natural events as per the determinations of the BPAS (Baseline Probability Ascertainment System) program simulation.[[/fooote]]
描述： SCP-7037 是一株有 47 片叶子的三叶草，它对相对概率现实有着持续的影响，从而使得好运得以被感知到。2由于这种影响在距离源头 50 公里远的地方也能被观察到，确切的影响范围目前未知，但可以合理推测其范围不会超过 100 公里。SCP-7037 is a forty-seven leaf clover that has a constant effect on relative probabilistic reality, resulting in the perceivable existence of good fortune.3 As such effects have been observed as far as 50 km away from the source, an exact sphere of influence is unknown, though it is reasonably assumed to be no further than 100 km.
附录-1： 发现
SCP-7037 是在 Reuben Walsh的家中被发现，位于爱尔兰乡村的一个小村庄内。在原因是伊夫琳·奥肖南在社交媒体上发布了一篇帖子，详细描述了她的母亲在前一天完全卧床且处于昏迷状态的情况下奇迹般地从第四期肺癌中康复了后，该异常现象引起了基金会的注意。两名MTF Pulse-17（“普通市民”）伪装成游客前往该地，并通过与当地人的交谈，发现了多个其他看似不可能、具有概率性的结果，包括但不限于4以下内容：SCP-7037 was discovered in the home of Reuben Walsh, located within a small village in rural Ireland. The anomaly was initial brought to Foundation attention after Evelyn O'Shannon made a social media post detailing that her mother had miraculously recovered from Stage 4 lung cancer despite being completely bedridden and comatose a day prior. Two members of MTF Pulse-17 ("Your Everyday Citizens") were dispatched to the location under the guise of tourists and, through conversation with locals, discovered multiple other instances of unlikely, probabilistic outcomes, including, but not limited to,[[fo ote]]For a comprehensive list of all documented occurrences, see Senior Researcher Asher Celzin, head of all SCP-7037 research.[te] the following:
- 同一天，在同一座教堂里，三对夫妻分别举行了婚礼，而且他们三人的姓氏都是“Ortiz”。
- 一个七岁的小男孩从大约 25 米高的树上掉下来；尽管从坠落中幸存下来的可能性不到 10% ，但他并未受伤。
- 在一场暴风雨中，一道闪电击中了一位年长的妇女 7 次5；与那个男孩的情况一样，她也没有受伤。
- Three separate marriages occurring on the same day, at the same church, with all three couples sharing the same surname "Ortiz."
- A seven year old boy falling out of a tree from an approximate elevation of 25 meters; he sustained no injuries despite the likelihood of simply surviving a fall being less than a 10% chance.
- During a storm, lightning striking an elderly woman 7 times[[footn ]]Calculations suggest this is less than a 1 in 1 tredecillion (42 zeroes) chance.[ote]; similar to the boy, she sustained no injuries.
在 Celzin 博士确认这些情况（包括未列出的其他情况）在基本的概率现实框架内发生的可能性极低之后，他又派遣了另外一些具有奇术的 MTF Pulse-17 成员，并利用他们的能，通过奇术说服手段进入并调查公民住宅。在搜查过程中，SCP-7037 从鲁本·沃尔什的家中被回收，而沃尔什通过特定的记忆治疗，被植入了关于三叶草枯萎的虚假记忆。After Doctor Celzin determined these instances, along with others not listed, to be astronomically unlikely to occur within baseline probabilistic reality, additional MTF Pulse-17 members with thaumaturgic abilities were dispatched and, using their abilities, were to enter and investigate citizen homes through use of thaumaturgical persuasion. During this search, SCP-7037 was recovered from the home of Reuben Walsh who, through specified mnestic treatment, was implanted with false memories of the clover wilting.
附录-2： 测试片段
Celzin博士批准了多项测试，以确定 SCP-7037异常特性的具体规格的限制。尽管测试范围广泛6但为了文件的效率，仅收录了部分重要的片段。Multiple tests were approved by Doctor Celzin to ascertain specifications and limits of SCP-7037's anomalous properties. While testing was extensive,[[footote]]See Senior Researcher Asher Celzin for full documentation of experiments. Data is available with the approval of at least one member of the O5 Council.[[/foote]] only important excerpts have been included for documental efficiency.
File.Test_Log-7037_07.scptxt
实验： D-19732与 SCP-70377被隔绝与一房间内，通过奇术封印与正常的概率现实相隔绝。室内设有一张桌子、一把椅子以及六副扑克牌。D-19732 被要求随意对每张副进行洗牌，但不得查看任何卡片的正面图案。D-19732 is isolated in a room with SCP-7037[[fooote]]Sealed within a steel box.[[/foe]] which is disconnected from baseline probabilistic reality via thaumaturgic seals. Within the room is a table, chair, and six decks of cards. D-19732 is prompted to shuffle each deck as much as they wish, but not to check the faces of any cards.
结果： 对这些卡片的检查表明，尽管每张牌的洗牌方法和所花时间各不相同，但所有的六张牌的排列顺序完全一致。由于每次洗牌的概率是 1/52!8，而这样的情况发生的统计概率是 1/52!6，即 1/2.75 x 10407。Inspection of the cards revealed that, despite varying methods and time taken to shuffle each deck, all six held the exact order of cards. As each shuffle is a 1 in 52![[footte]]8.07 x 1067[[/foote]] chance, the statistical probability of such an occurrence is 1 in 52!6, or 1 in 2.75 x 10407 chance.
补充说明： 这在统计学上是不可能实现的。的的确确。如果我们假设可观测宇宙中的原子数量为 1082 个，那么你可以将每一个原子都变成一个独立的宇宙，这些宇宙中的每一个原子又变成一个独立的宇宙，如此重复两次，然后随机选取一个原子，那么就是 10410。这的概率仅仅是这种随机排列的千分之一。我们正面临着一个使不可能变为可能的奇异现象，所以我们必须小心谨慎。——高级研究员Asher Calzin。This is a statistical impossibility. Truly. If we go off the calculation that there are 1082 atoms in our observable universe, you could turn every atom into its own universe, every atom of those universes into its own, and repeat twice more, pick a random atom, and that's just 10410. That's only a thousand times less likely than this shuffle. We are dealing with an anomaly that makes the impossible possible, and we need to be careful. — Senior Researcher Asher Celzin.
在测试记录 7037-07 之后，接下来的五项测试分别使用了 7 副、8 副、10 副、20 副和 50 副牌进行了相同的实验。所有测试的结果都相同；所有牌组的洗牌方式也完全一致。在测试记录 7037-12 结束之后9，Celzin 博士向站点主管提交了以下提案，以更新防护措施。Following Test Log 7037-07, the following five tests replicated the same experiment with seven, eight, ten, twenty, and fifty decks respectively. All resulted in the same outcome; all decks held the same shuffle. After the conclusion of Test Log 7037-12,10 Doctor Celzin submitted the following proposal to update containment procedures to the Site Director.
Celzin博士的提案遭否决后，实验按最初方案继续进行。Following the denial of Doctor Celzin's proposal, experimentation continued as it had initially.
File.Test_Log-7037_32.scptxt
实验： D-19732再次被隔离于与SCP-7037共处的房间内，该房间已与基线概率现实断开连接。室内设有一张桌子、一把椅子、一枚硬币，以及一份要求其抛掷硬币一百次并记录结果的指令。D-19732 is once again isolated in a room with SCP-7037 that is disconnected from baseline, probabilistic reality. Within the room is a table, chair, and a singular coin, alongside a set of instructions to flip the coin one-hundred times and record results.
结果： 尽管记录表中并未列出该栏目，D-19732却自行写入一栏标注为"立边"并标记该栏达100次。经审讯及视频录像分析，上述结果得到确认。对该结果的基线概率研究，结合 SPP11的计算，得出基线概率为六千分之一，而测试结果表明复制此类结果的概率为 1.53×10378，其结果与测试记录 7037-07 所得出的结果一样可能性微乎其微。
Despite no column being listed, D-19732 wrote in once denoted "edge" and marked said column 100 times. Following questioning alongside analysis of video footage, said results were confirmed. Research into baseline probability of this result, along with a use of a SPP,12 calculated the baseline probability to be a 1 in 6000 chance, whereas the results of testing suggest replicating such a result is 1 in 1.53 x 10378, a result similarly miniscule to that of the Test Log 7037-07.
补充说明： 尽管尚有多个计划测试待进行，我认为我们已完全理解该异常的能力。它并非仅仅偏转概率；它在玩弄概率。三十二项测试已排除任何巧合可能，更多测试将令即便我们之中的最怀疑者也无法否认，但同时，我强烈建议提升SCP-7037的安全权限等级。我担心若它落入不当之手将会发生什么。——高级研究员 Asher Celzin Despite multiple other intended tests, I think we perfectly understand what this anomaly is capable of. It doesn't just skew chance; it plays with it. Thirty-two tests disprove any coincidence, and further tests will deny any of even the most skeptic among us, but in the meantime I highly suggest increasing security clearance regarding SCP-7037. I fear what may happen if it falls into the wrong hands. — Senior Researcher Asher Celzin
类似于测试记录7037-07之后的测试，测试记录7037-32之后的三项测试分别以二百次、五百次和一千次抛掷复现了相同实验，均得出相同结果；所有硬币皆立起其边缘，每一次都是如此。另外，全程使用不同硬币以排除硬币本身为异常物的嫌疑。与此同时，Celzin博士亦向站点主管提交了另一份提案，详见下文。Similarly to tests following Test Log 7037-07, the following three tests after Test Log 7037-32 replicated the same experiment with two-hundred, five-hundred, and one-thousand coin flips respectively, all yielding the same results; all coins landed on their edge, every single time. Additionally, different coins were used throughout to nullify any suspicion that the coin itself may have been anomalous. At this time, Doctor Celzin also submitted another proposal to the Site Director, as can be seen below.
在暂停期后，Celzin博士提出了一个补充请求，即在继续担任首席研究员的同时，接手担任 SCP-7037 的主要负责人。与之前的请求不同，此次请求因认为该异常体不存在威胁而获得批准。以下测试是在这种条件下进行的。Following completion of her suspension, Doctor Celzin filed a secondary request to take over as the lead participant, alongside her current responsibilities as head researcher, of SCP-7037. This motion, unlike the prior, was approved due to presumed non-threat of the anomaly. The following tests were conducted under such conditions.
File.Test_Log-7037_77.scptxt
Experiment: Senior Research Asher Celzin is isolated in a room with SCP-7037 and is disconnected from baseline probabilistic reality. Within the room is a table, chair, and three lottery tickets.13 The tickets were within SCP-7037's sphere of influence. Doctor Celzin proceeds to scratch each off and compare them to their respective, winning numbers.
Results: All three tickets win their respective jackpots, summing up to an approximate total of $777 million. As a result, the Ethics Committee conducted a brief investigation into the manner of SCP-7037 testing and ultimately determined that, despite the influence of SCP-7037, Doctor Celzin had a right to the money, though was strictly discouraged from replication of similar testing.
Additional Notes: I have no use for the money; I want to get that off my chest first and foremost. I split it amongst various charities, put a lot into the Foundation, and even sent some home to my folks, but I kept none of it. This was an example, a perfect one, of just how powerful this anomaly is. And how dangerous it is. And I will continue testing until someone above me finally believes me.
Senior Researcher Asher Celzin filed a proposal with the previous file attached in a third email correspondence with Site-37's Director. Unlike previous messages however, Doctor Celzin's went unanswered for four days. Documents of the exchange are below.
Following her correspondence with the Director, Doctor Celzin submitted multiple proposals to Assistant Director Sherwood Watson's email. All went unacknowledged. Despite such, Doctor Celzin reportedly continued researching the effects of SCP-7037.
Addendum-3: Incident-7037-01
File.Incident-7037_01.scpmp4
DATE: 7/07/20██
FOREWORD: Incident-7037-01 occurred approximately twenty-seven minutes after the arrival of O5-1 to Site-37 for a meeting with its Site Director. The perpetuator of this incident has been identified to be SCP-7037's head researcher Asher Celzin. The following is a concise summary of the incident:
[0000]: Doctor Celzin can be see in an experimentation cell, presumably conducting a test related to SCP-7037.
[0003]: O5-1 arrives at Site-37 alongside one member14 of MTF Alpha-1 ("Red Right Hand") as a an escort.
[0004]: Site-37's Director notifies all staff of Class 4 clearance of the O5's arrival as per standard procedure.
[0005]: Celzin acknowledges the notice and appears to grow increasingly troubled over the course of the following five or six minutes.
[0011]: After confirming O5-1's identity, the Site Director leads the O5 to his personal office.
[0017]: Despite appearing visibly conflicted, Celzin continues and completes their experimentation with SCP-7037 and is seen noting the results.
[0023]: The Site Director can be seen leading O5-1 throughout Site-37 as per the O5's own request.
[0025]: Celzin completes notation of results and appears to gather up equipment; a few minutes later she is seen to be heading towards the site's Storage Wing, presumably to return SCP-7037 to its containment locker.
[0031]: An unexpected breach occurs regarding a non-hostile humanoid anomaly; due to this, O5-1 sends their own MTF guard to aid in re-containment. The Director and O5 continue towards the Storage Wing due to the lack of danger affiliated with the breach.
[0033]: Celzin enters the Storage wing and is seen moving towards SCP-7037's storage locker; once they notice the Site Director and O5-1, however, they freeze in place.
[0034]: When O5-1 is approximately one meter away from Celzin, she suddenly arms herself with her personal sidearm, leveling the gun at the Overseer's head. The following dialogue is exchanged:
Director: Asher! What the fuck are you doing? Put the gun down.
O5-1: Lass, I'm not sure what you're trying to pull, but I'm not sure you know who-
[0035]: Celzin pulls the trigger, but the gun jams. She sighs in visible relief and drops the firearm.
Celzin: …I was right.
[END LOG]
Following the events of Incident-7037-01, Asher Celzin was immediately detained, questioned, and put through psychological analysis testing due to the sudden, irregular behavior. Such tests reveal that she was not only of a perfectly sane and unaltered state of mind, but that her actions were executed with the intent of O5-1's survival; the following is her own testimony given at the end of her evaluation:
"Denial after denial after denial. I couldn't take it anymore, all of the… inaction. I've spoken with Velrium before — hell, I considered him a friend! — but he wouldn't do anything. Nothing serious, at least. Just a quick 'denied' and he went on with his day. So when I heard an O5 was in the building, I… I got the terrible idea to put a gun to their head. I wasn't going to act on it at first, I swear, but when we crossed paths it was like the clover had brought him right to me. And as luck would have it, the gun jammed, just as I expected. Fuck- I probably wrote my own death sentence, but at least they'll be forced to pay the damn anomaly some mind." - Senior Researcher Asher Celzin
Celzin's reprimanding is pending Site Director Velrium Zerwick's O5-1's discretion.
In accordance to O5-1's declarations, Velrium Zerwick was placed on immediate suspended leave. Despite her promotion, Asher Celzin was also placed on a brief suspension period of two months per the request of multiple other Overseers despite O5-1's protests. As such, Doctor Celzin is currently serving her suspension period of two months, following which she will assume role of Site Director at Site-37. During this period, Sherwood Watson is to temporarily assume this role.
Additionally, SCP-7037 was taken into Overseer custody following this incident with the intent of further testing. O5-6 has assumed role as the primary researcher for said anomaly.
Addendum-3: O5 Council Census Regarding SCP-7037
File.O5_Census-7037_01.scpmp4
Date: 7/09/20██
Foreword: Following the events of Incident-7037-1, O5-1 called a non-emergency meeting of the Council to discuss further procedure regarding SCP-7037 itself. Due to other vital proceedings, however, multiple Overseers were unable to attend; as the subject matter was not considered of the utmost necessity, the meeting proceeded despite the absence of O5-3, O5-8, O5-10, and O5-12.
<O5-4 enters Overseer Hall and takes her seat, effectively being the last to arrive of the nine present members. As she sits, O5-1 activates thaumaturgical wards on the hall, rendering it a reality exclusion zone as is standard procedure.>
O5-1: All are present? <A unanimous round of confirmation is heard from the other eight.> Perfect. You have all read the briefing, I'm sure.
O5-9: I read the briefing alright. Someone tried to take your life, One. And you rewarded her for it?
O5-2: Did you read the full file? It seems it was quite expectant that she would fail. She even drafted a hypothesis on it.
O5-9: And if she didn't? I feel as though the situation is being regarded far too lightly for an attempt on a council member's life.
O5-13: The way I see it, it's One's life, not ours. If he believes she is to be acquitted, then she is acquitted. It is no skin off my back.
O5-11: Regardless of our own beliefs regarding this Doctor Celzin, we are not here to discuss such semantics. One?
O5-1: Thank you. I appreciate your concerns, but the matter at hand here is SCP-7037, not worries regarding myself. Six and I have taken it upon ourselves to conduct our own research into the anomaly, and the result are… interesting, to say the least. Six, if you could?
<O5-6 produces multiple copies of a printed file and distributes it to everyone present. File is included below.>
O5-1: Please take a moment to read through it. All of you.
File.O5-Test_Log-7037-Summary.scptxt
SCP-7037 is an anomaly capable of modifying any and all probabilities to an extent such that it would not be unwise to consider it a passive reality bender. What is of curious note, however, is the extent to which it seems related to the human psyche. For instance, in an attempt to replicate Doctor Celzin's six-deck test, we substituted the human participant with an AI; the results were eye-opening, as no deck shared a shuffle. Once the human component was reintroduced, however, the results returned to statistical impossibilities.
Of extreme note, however, are its capabilities to protect said human component, though this seems to come at a cost. With approval of the Ethics Committee, we conducted several tests which should have harmed the participating personnel, yet in all instances excluding those which would cause minor injuries15 a failure always occurred which negated the administration of such harm. Whether this is an intentional trait of the anomaly or simply its passive effect on probability on a grander scale is unknown.
What is known, however, is that situations in which its modification of probability saves lives results in the wilting of exactly one clover leaf. This was true for both Incident-7037-1 and one of our own tests replicating the same scenario. As such, SCP-7037 may prove to be an invaluable tool, but a finite resource nonetheless.
<Over the course of approximately five minutes all Overseers read through the file.>
O5-4: So what does this make SCP-7037? Some sort of anomalously good omen?
O5-9: Or some sort of trick. Who's to say the anomaly won't suddenly decide to skew chance against us?
O5-2: The original files, which heavily outline SCP-7037's lack of a consciousness.
O5-9: And if that's a trick, too? We've seen smart anomalies before; it is dangerous to trust one even for a moment. Remember the Falling Dawn Incident?
<O5-6 visibly shudders; O5-5 and O5-11 appear uncomfortable.>
O5-13: We all remember that incident, but I think we should also be keen to acknowledge anomalies which have done us good. O5-8 is still kicking because of the damn pill, and O5-3 is more spectral than they are human.
O5-9: That doesn't change that fact that SCP-7037 might be dangerous-
O5-7: I'd argue your continued skepticism is just as dangerous. There is very little point to it over such a relatively trivial matter.
O5-9: Trivial!? We're all reading the same document here, aren't we? It toys with probability like a toddler with Lego; chaotically! How is this trivial?
O5-7: If you would stop shouting I'm sure others would love to explain. This is a council meeting; try to control yourself.
<O5-9 glares at O5-7 but ultimately remains silent.>
O5-7: Thank you. Now, if anyone would like to refute? Civil-like, mind you.
<Silence permeates the room for a few moments. Eventually, O5-11 speaks.>
O5-11: I may be a bit biased, but I see very little detriment in utilizing SCP-7037 as a tool which may benefit the Foundation's functions. We already have anecdotal proof that it has prevented an Overseer's death.
O5-2: I agree. That is quite undeniable. In fact, through all of Doctor Celzin's, One's, and Six's research there has not been one instance which suggests the effects of this anomaly are negative.
O5-13: They suggest quite the opposite, actually. With nearly two-hundred recorded tests, it seems statistically improbable a negative outcome would occur.
O5-9: Statistically improbable. Are you hearing yourself? This anomaly takes probability and twists it into whatever the hell it wants! Statistical probabilities don't exist when speaking of this anomaly. The tests prove that just as much as anything else.
O5-6: Will you not listen to reason?
O5-4: As much as I hate to agree with Nine, they bring up valid concerns, though I also believe their paranoia steers them more-so than their mind.
O5-9: …thank you?
O5-4: Regardless, I think we should take into consideration his points as much so as our own.
O5-5: Back and forth, back and forth…
O5-1: <Sighs.> Very well. Perhaps you misunderstand our intentions for the anomaly.
O5-9: And what are your intentions exactly?
O5-1: I wish to install SCP-7037 into the Overseer Hall directly and-
O5-9: Not a shot in hell.
O5-6: Nine, let's not-
O5-9: Don't "Nine" me. The Overseer Hall? Are you stupid? Do you-
O5-7: Nine.
O5-9: -really think-
O5-7: Nine.
O5-9: -that I'll just sit here and-
<O5-7 slams his fist into the table.>
O5-7: Nine! <The room falls silent.> You're acting like a child. Calm down, and remember your station.
<Nine appears visibly offended but falls silent, lowering his head.>
O5-7: Clearly this meeting is going no where. One, mind moving on to the official proposal.
O5-1: Yes. Of course. <O5-1 clears their throat.> This is O5 proposal 7037-1; I, head of the O5 Council, hereby propose SCP-7037 be installed with the Overseer Hall with the express intent of utilization as a Foundation failsafe. All in favor?
