SPECIAL CONTAINMENT PROCEDURES: SCP-023 is to be contained in a walled-off four-way corridor in Wing O of Site-19 a specially constructed containment chamber in Zone 2 of SCPF Area-51. Personnel are not to enter the containment chamber without permission from at least two (2) Level-03 personnel.

DESCRIPTION: SCP-023 is are large canine that strongly resembles a domestic dog in appearance. It has black fur across its entire body except for its eyes and snout. It’s eyes are bright red in color, and faintly luminescent.

SCP-023 has the ability to teleport away from any location that does not at least superficially resemble a crossroads, and will incinerate all material it passes through, regardless of whether such material is flammable.

However, the most notable characteristic of SCP-023 occurs when it makes direct eye contact with a human being. Exactly one (1) year after eye contact is broken, either the subject or a member of their immediate family will die. No specific cause of death is identifiable beyond a simultaneous shutdown of all body processes. Attempts to terminate the subject and all immediate family members prior to the one year deadline have resulted in [DATA EXPUNGED].

IN-GAME: SCP-023 can be found in a chamber in Zone 2. It will attempt to kill players through direct contact. As of now, it’s ‘eye contact ability’ has no effect in game.
