SCP-472

Item #: SCP-472

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-472 is kept in the center of a large cell. Anyone who wants to go near it must be psychologically vetted first.

Description: SCP-472 is a red stone made of Garnet. Anyone within 18 meters of it will hear the distant beating of their own heart. Listening to the heartbeat causes negative psychological symptoms. The longer the subject listens to the heartbeat the worse the symptoms become, starting with unease, anxiety and guilt and eventually leading to paranoia, hallucinations and catatonia (with a 76% chance of death). They will also lose up to 1.35 percent of their biomass.
