SCP Foundation(SCP財団)は、超自然的な事物や場所の隔離収容を使命とする架空の組織「SCP財団」をテーマとした創作を扱うコミュニティサイトである。

概要[編集]

In-universe, the SCP Foundation is a secret organization entrusted by global governments to contain and study anomalous entities, locations and objects that defy natural law (or SCPs, as each is referred to by their Special Containment Procedures file number).[2] Some SCP objects, if left uncontained, could pose a threat to humans or to humanity's sense of reality and normalcy.[2]

The existence of SCPs are kept secret by the SCP Foundation to prevent mass panic and to allow human civilization to function normally. When an SCP is discovered, the SCP Foundation deploys agents to either collect and transport the SCP to a Foundation facility or to contain it at its location of discovery if transport is not possible. Once SCPs are contained, they are studied by Foundation scientists. Prison inmates acquired by the Foundation (referred to as D-class) are used to interact with SCPs due to the danger posed by the SCPs and the expendability of the D-class.[2]

The SCP Foundation maintains documentation of the special containment procedures for all of the SCPs in its custody. These documents describe the SCPs and include instructions for keeping them safely contained.[2] As of 2015, the SCP Foundation currently maintains containment procedures for over two thousand SCPs; new procedures are frequently added. [3]

コミュニティ[編集]

The SCP Foundation series originated in the "paranormal" /x/ forum of 4chan, where the first special containment procedure (known as SCP-173) was posted as a creepypasta thread during 2007.[3] Many other special containment procedures were created shortly after, inspired by SCP-173. In 2008, the SCP Foundation series was transferred to its current Wikidot英語版 website.[3]

The Wikidot website has received media attention for its creative writing contests. The contests are free to enter for website members.[4] However, users need to submit an application before they are allowed to contribute content to the website.[3] Writers from the Daily Dot英語版 and Bustle have noted that the website maintains strict quality control standards, and that sub-par content tends to be quickly deleted.[3][5]

The SCP Foundation also maintains a forum on Reddit and a role-playing community.[3]

Analysis of writing[編集]

The majority of the works of fiction on the SCP Foundation website consist of individual pieces, each of which purports to be the "special containment procedures" documentation of a particular SCP object.[3] The SCPs are also sorted into classes, with the majority being classed as: "Safe", for objects understood well enough that they can be contained easily and will not manifest abilities without deliberate activation, "Euclid" for objects that are unpredictable or not well-understood but are not a high-level threat, and "Keter" for objects that require extensive containment procedures and which pose a large-scale threat to human life. In addition, the containment procedures may provide the history of the entities and any testing performed on them.[3] The reports are written in a pseudo-scientific tone and often "redact英語版" information.[6] The SCP Foundation series also contains several hundred "Foundation tales", which are short stories written within the SCP Foundation universe.[3]

The SCP Foundation does not have a central canon. Rather, each containment procedure and tale forms its own continuity.[3] The genre of the site has been described as science fiction, urban fantasy英語版 and horror英語版.[7][2] The content and the stories on the website are released under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license.[8]

スピンオフ作品[編集]

The SCP Foundation has inspired multiple independent video games. One of these games is SCP – Containment Breach. In the game, the protagonist is a member of D-class personnel who attempts to escape the facility he is stationed at during a containment breach. During the escape attempt, the protagonist is forced to avoid numerous SCPs, including SCP-173, a concrete statue that moves towards and attacks the player when not observed.[3] Other SCP Foundation video games include SCP-087 and SCP-087-B, both based on SCP-087, with the latter being loosely inspired by it.[9]

In addition to video games, a stage play entitled "Welcome to the Ethics Committee" was performed in Dublin during 2014. The play focused on the SCP Foundation's Ethics Committee and its task of limiting unethical tactics utilized by the SCP Foundation to contain the paranormal.[10] A live-action web-series also entered production in 2013 which was based on the SCP Foundation.[11]
