A single random SCP CRT (SCP-736)

16,724

SCP-736
IS A an anomaly affecting the Saturnian moon Iapetus, For brief periods generally lasting several days, Iapetus' orbit is spontaneously altered by measures of eccentricity, orbital period, or both. The orbit of Iapetus returns to its documented state after these spontaneous changes. Models of temporary orbits almost entirely consist of Iapetus undergoing orbital decay, and in most scenarios is projected to collide with Saturn (and, depending on the projection, other Saturnian moons) at some point within the next 150-300 years. These projected orbits are all in direct violation of mathematical models and both classical and relativistic physical principles, which do not predict a decay in the orbit of Iapetus due to tidal effects or gravitational radiation.

Ok, so we have here a profile about a phenomen, but talking about what It affects, first things first

1-There is a inteligent force behind It:
SCP-736 is believed to be directed by an intelligent entity. On September 10, 2007, during the Cassini-Huygens flyby of Iapetus, the spacecraft was contacted by a then-unknown source of radio transmissions. Telemetry analysis revealed the source to be located on the surface of Iapetus. Foundation assets within NASA immediately seized information transmitted from the source and commenced an information suppression campaign. Approximately 8.2 terabytes of data were transmitted from the surface of Iapetus in a time period of 12 seconds. Analysis of the data was inconclusive, as most of it seemed to be random configurations of number values represented by a series of repetitive tones. However, the transmission has served as evidence of a sapient, technologically advanced presence on Iapetus. All communication attempts by Foundation staff have thus far been unreciprocated.
This mean that It can have a Intelligence status in the wiki, as well be considered tecnically someone "piloting" the moon, so the facct that It is considered just thephenome shouldn't matter much

2-Well, now we Have the AP and Dura... they come from simulations made from the foundation that say what would happen If Iapetus don't change It's tragetory, It Is likle that AP could stay them, sinse It is considered the result of such impact, now the thing Is, no were is said that Iapetus would survive the impacts It self, And the profile seen to apply as if the Moon would survive the impact's, what I don't see being much likle, trough a basic "how strongh is the Iapetus moon is" should be enough to fix the Dura problem

Iapetus volume: 1,492.0 × 1,492.0 × 1,424 km (smaller them the aerth moon)

Titan volume: 7.16×1010 km3 (3.3 Moons)

3- Well, now probable a "infinit stamina" or "Irrelevant" sinse is just a moon should be the only status left, Maybe a standard Equipament as "Iapetus moon"?

4- Now the part that interests me, Powers and Abilities left, at the moment It only has " Superhuman Physical Characteristics" on It, so first of all, sinse we have no Idea what Is changing the moon orbit, appling the powers direct to the moon It self shouldn't be much of a problem:
  1. Large size( 5 ) (Being a moon It has It's on gravity
  2. Inorganic phisiology(It's a moon)
  3. Self sustenance (It's a moon, so all types, It is just moving Into a direction)
  4. Possible resistence to mind manipulation? (Well, a moon don't have a mind, but whatever is "driving" It may have)
  5. Gravity manipulation(A moon have It's own gravity)
  6. Self orbital modification
5-For last, It should have 2 notable Notable Attacks/Techniques and 2 Weakness

Colliding: Itchanges It orbit to collide with a target
Colliding trajetory change: Colides into another Celestial bodies, changing It's direction to the target

Weaknesses: All of It's atacks Take years to start and finish thanks to the nature of the orbital changes and It speed, The fasteter one needing 152 years, 2 months, 3 days to start, and more 22 years to finish, trough It can change It orbit midle movement to accelerate It by some years. It takes months to change It tragetory again

Agree: Pokemonfan807, Lou_change, Peppersalt43

I would assume it has genius intelligence given it's skill at well I believe ballistics is correct but I am not sure.
 
Unknow is probable the best, or genius with the only explanation being the number of calculos It does to aim the moon
