Powers and Techniques

Superhuman Physical Characteristics (Limited), Invulnerability Truth Manipulation, Subjective Reality (Conceptual Invulnerability, Passive; Alters subjective reality to make harming it impossible even when directly attempting to do so, Extends to automated devices and indirect means. Its invulnerability is described as "maybe a semiohazard," a fact of the universe that shouldn't be true but functionally is, Affects how reality itself can be perceived and interacted with), Mind Manipulation (Mind Control, Memory; Forces people to help it capture targets), Clairvoyance (Can identify and locate any human on Earth), Possible Existence Erasure (Physical; Makes victims disappear completely)

Equipment

• Cotton Sheet: A large cotton sheet that completely covers SCP-6096's body (Larger than its body and trails behind it when moving). May be part of its anomalous abilities as it cannot be removed.

---

Notable Techniques

• Victim Selection: Periodically selects a random human from anywhere on Earth as its target (Selection appears truly random).
• Compulsive Aid: Forces anyone who sees it to help locate and subdue its target (Observers gain knowledge of its target and are compelled to help).
• Subsumption: Once it reaches its target, it pulls them under its sheet where they struggle painfully for 20-40 minutes before vanishing completely (Victims disappear after painful struggle).
• Harm Prevention: Prevents any living being from taking an action that would harm it, including indirect actions (Universal protection against conscious harm).

---

Other

Standard Tactics: SCP-6096 is usually docile until it selects a target. It then moves persistently at walking speed toward its target, gathering unwilling helpers along the way (Alternates between docility and pursuit). It allows itself to be contained when not pursuing targets (Returns to docility after claiming victims).

Weaknesses: Its targets are exempt from its protection and can attempt to harm it, though none have succeeded (Current targets can try to harm it). Described as physically weak but its anomalous protection makes this irrelevant.
