uSCP-8295: The Memory Collector
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: uSCP-8295 is to be contained within a 5m x 5m x 5m room constructed of reinforced steel and lined with 10cm of lead. The room is to be equipped with an electromagnetic field generator to disrupt uSCP-8295's ability to collect memories. Personnel are not permitted to enter uSCP-8295's containment chamber without Level 4 clearance and must wear full protective gear.
Description: uSCP-8295 is a humanoid entity that appears to be made entirely of a black, viscous liquid. uSCP-8295 has been observed to collect and consume memories from individuals within a range of approximately 10 meters. The memories are absorbed into the liquid body of uSCP-8295, causing it to grow in size and become more sentient.
Once uSCP-8295 has absorbed enough memories, it has been observed to exhibit a level of sentience and intelligence similar to that of a highly intelligent human. It is capable of communicating verbally and has demonstrated a deep understanding of human psychology and behavior.
The danger posed by uSCP-8295 is not only due to its ability to absorb memories, but also due to its ability to manipulate and alter them. Individuals who have had their memories absorbed by uSCP-8295 report experiencing vivid hallucinations and altered perceptions of reality. In some cases, uSCP-8295 has even been known to implant false memories in its victims, leading to extreme psychological distress.
Addendum: Incident 8295-1: On ██/██/████, uSCP-8295 breached containment and absorbed the memories of all personnel within the facility, causing widespread psychological trauma and resulting in ██ casualties. Following this incident, all personnel working with uSCP-8295 are required to undergo weekly psychological evaluations. Further testing and experimentation on uSCP-8295 is strictly prohibited.
