SCP-682 - Should it have abilities it adapted into?

[Agnaa]

I've noticed a bit of seeming inconsistency on 682's profile. For some abilities, it states that 682 requires the proper stimuli (Size Manipulation, Duplication, Biological Manipulation, and Illusion Creation), some abilities it seems to only get through stimuli but this isn't really mentioned on the profile (Sound Manipulation, Body Control, Disease Manipulation, Heat Manipulation), and some abilities it gets through stimuli on the test-logs, but aren't included on the profile (the only one that comes to mind is Transmutation through the alcoholic transmutation fluid, but I think there's more).

In short, we should do one of:

• Abilities from the second camp should get removed.
• Abilities from the second camp should have a mention added that 682 only has them in response to the proper stimuli (maybe even a new tabber for these?).
• Abilities from the first AND second camp should be removed (I'm pretty heavily against this option).
• Abilities from the third camp should be added (the option I'm least in favor of).

As one last thing, there's another new SCP profile that has a similar issue, where one of its keys has all of the abilities it had from separate stimuli at once despite this being impossible, whose creator cited 682 for why treating abilities in this way is okay.

 

[Sir_Ovens]

I agree, 682 should only get certain abilities in response to certain methods of termination. There's reason Foundation boyos don't do the same termination test twice, 682 would just regain the adaptation and it would be a huge waste of resources. However, that does not mean 682 keeps the adaptations permanently, it usually loses them after awhile, and can get them back whenever someone tries to do the same thing to it twice.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Option 2 would probably be best

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

They should be optional stuff, probably.

Also 3450 is more like me deciding to put them all in a single key for convenience.

 

[Agnaa]

It may be for convenience, but I'd rather go for accuracy if convenience means "creating a composite for no reason".

Azra Livbar's page has a similar sort of issue - she can equip books for new abilities but in-game she can only equip 2 at a time, so the page notes this and any OPs for battles should specify which ability this has.

This sort of thing might work for 3450.

 

[Agnaa]

Bump?

 

[WeeklyBattles]

I mean how much input is really needed for this? Its not addind or removing anything major its just putting pre-existing info into another tabber

 

[Agnaa]

I mean, slight issue is Saikou seems to disagree, if I'm reading that message right. Wanting 682 to be able to optionally start with those abilities, when I think a separate tabber would just explain that 682 could develop them mid-battle.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Oh yeah no even i dont agree that he starts with them and i added the abilities lol

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Although minor nitpick, size manip and body control are powers it has by default, its just able to use them more radically through stimuli

 

[Agnaa]

Could you move the relevant abilities to a new tabber? Maybe something like


SCP-682 has been shown to adapt into the following abilities when given the proper stimuli:

And we could leave the 3450 discussion for later.

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Immortality (Types 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 [Cursed with the inability to die from SCP-343], and 9 [SCP-682 is just a 3-D projection of its true self, which exists on a higher-dimensional plane.

Absorbed and weaponized the powers of SCP-061, SCP-999, SCP-923, and SCP-1056), Body Control (Able to constantly change its body)

Large Size (Up to Type 8), Size Manipulation (Can shrink to microscopic sizes and grow to the size of the universe given the proper stimuli), Reality Warping (Can create localized space-time anomalies as a defense mechanism.

[Agnaa]

I didn't think reality warping/black hole creation was in response to stimuli, there wasn't really a correlation there. Sorta like how 682 only whipped out the "Forget the concept of russia" waves, it seems like an inherent ability that it only had use for once.

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

>682 survived 3930

What the ****

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Yes it did

Also reminds me that 682 needs a resistance to gravity and vector manip from a test added a year ago

 

[Agnaa]

Bump.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

682 resisted the gravity and vector manip of 858

 

[The_Popular_Loser]

I favor the 2nd option as well

 

[Agnaa]

Bump.

 

[Agnaa]

Bump.

 

[The_Popular_Loser]

They wer saying 682 has been killed, is that true?

Sorry if im dRailing.

 

[Sir_Ovens]

Yeah, option 2 is best.

 

[Wardokman69]

They wer saying 682 has been killed, is that true?
Sorry if im dRailing.

he was killed by SCP-173 lmfao

 

[The_Popular_Loser]

Dude theres no way...

 

[Agnaa]

They wer saying 682 has been killed, is that true?

Sorry if im dRailing.

682 has been killed in some canons, not in others.

At least SCP-001-EX, SCP-2935 have killed it, probably more things have.

 

[Wardokman69]

Dr.Gerald with road roller

 

[Agnaa]

Bump.

 

[Agnaa]

Bump.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

What else needs to be changed here?

 

[Agnaa]

The tabber you drafted earlier should be put into the profile.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Has it been accepted?

 

[Agnaa]

Seems like it, looks like 5 or so people agreed.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Applied, also added a nice nested tabber to make it easier to read

 

[Agnaa]

Awesome stuff, I think the thread can be closed now.
