SCP-166

	"Mature Content"
	This character or verse has mature themes and concepts, thus those of young age are ill-advised to look through these.

Background

SCP-166 is a female humanoid in its late teens with ungulate traits, including antlers, hooved feet, and a short tail. Despite these features, DNA analysis shows no genetic abnormalities. Objects within fifteen meters of SCP-166 regress to an unworked state, with complex artificial items such as electronics failing rapidly, while organic or rudimentary materials degrade far more slowly. Plant life also spontaneously grows within this radius, sometimes in improbable locations.

SCP-166 is highly sensitive to artificial materials and pollutants, often suffering severe reactions such as ulcers or asthma attacks from exposure.

It was discovered at the Our Lady of Mercy Convent in County Galway, Ireland, where it had been raised since infancy. A defecting Global Occult Coalition agent confirmed SCP-166 to be the child of SCP-████, a terminated entity known as “The Goddess.” The agent ensured SCP-166’s safety by transferring it to the Foundation in exchange for intelligence.

Appearance

General Description: SCP-166 is a European female in her late teens, outwardly human but bearing distinct ungulate traits. She possesses antlers, cloven hooves, and a short reindeer-like tail. Despite these unusual features, DNA testing reveals no genetic abnormalities.

Facial Features: She has a youthful human face with no visible distortions apart from her antlers, which sprout naturally from her head. Her skin tone, eye color, and hair remain human in nature, though her presence often emphasizes her anomalous qualities more strongly than her ordinary features.

Clothing/Outfit: SCP-166 generally wears simple attire suitable for containment and monitoring. Due to her condition, she is often dressed in garments made from natural or untreated fibers, as artificial fabrics or processed materials can trigger adverse reactions.

Special Features: Her body radiates an anomalous effect within a fifteen-meter radius, causing artificial materials to degrade back into unworked states. Electronics and machinery fail rapidly, while stone and organic-based materials decay more slowly. Plant life also spontaneously grows around her, even sprouting from improbable surfaces like cameras or keypads.

Alternate Forms/Disguises: SCP-166 has no alternate forms or disguises. Her reindeer-like features are permanent and cannot be concealed without artificial coverings, which often deteriorate in her presence due to her anomaly.

Personality

Polite and Respectful: SCP-166 addresses authority figures with courtesy, often referring to Father Davis formally and showing deference in conversation.

Curious about Others: She asks Davis about his relationship with his parents before discussing her own, demonstrating both empathy and a desire to understand family bonds she has never experienced.

Lonely and Searching: SCP-166 openly admits she never knew her parents, and her questions reveal a longing for connection and answers about her origins, particularly regarding her absent father.

Insecure About Heritage: She refers to her appearance and rumors about her mother being a “goddess” or “spirit,” showing uncertainty about her identity and a conflicted relationship with her background.

Quietly Honest: Even when speaking about painful topics, SCP-166 is candid, admitting she feels little for her mother since she never knew her, and questioning why her father abandoned her.

Reserved but Thoughtful: She hesitates before answering difficult questions, showing both caution and depth of reflection when speaking about her past.
