SCP-3456 │ The Orcadian Horsemen │ Keter │ Uncontained SCP by TheVolgun - Reaction

[@cyrusserapheth9555]

If I remember correctly, "humes" are the Foundation's unit of measurement for the stability/strength/amount of reality in a local area. Fewer humes = less reality, more absurdity. Reality benders have higher hume ratings compared to the rest of reality (which is a result of their ability to bend reality) while the hume rating of the area around a reality bender is lower than the average (because a reality bender is present and fiddling with reality). The Kant counter measures humes. This a simplified explanation, but that's more or less it. If hume rating of 100 is "normal reality", an entity with a hume rating above 100 has more reality to it than reality itself, indicating its ability to bend reality (with the entity's precise hume rating also sort of representing its power level, so to speak, at least relative to other reality benders). Humes below 100 indicates something is actually warping/bending/destabilizing reality. Hume rating of 0 or below is something best not thought about.

[@theneverwhere6076]

Most of the times hume value of 1 is standard for universe though, someone with hume level of 100 would be 100 times more real than rest of universe, universe literally wont be able to affect that person by any means What is concerning is that there's at least three entities with hume level of 300 and two with hume level of 8000 on earth alone

[@cyrusserapheth9555]

@@theneverwhere6076 I was just using 100 as a random example for simplicity, but good to know

[@Gearshoot]

@@theneverwhere6076 Those sound like higher dimensional entities at that point

So Old Man Reacts can't remember SCP 106 'The Old Man'! Priceless 🤣

[@brigidtheirish]

He took amnestic after watching the video.

[@Shythalia]

There can only be one Old Man.

[@Meanslicer43]

Kant Counters are essentially Geiger counters but for reality benders. they detect changes in base reality strength. edit: Hume's are the actual unit for measuring reality. Like rads measure radiation.

[@minhducnguyen9276]

And hum itself seem to be inspired by the Dirac sea model in theoretical physics. High hume means matter can exist and reality can be bended and low Hume means every matter will decay into nothing. Hume is the measure of probability for things to exist like the wave function of matter. In the Dirac see model, it was quantum fluctuation that created all the matter and energy in the universe and to create matter and energy, an equal amount of "negative energy" must be created but we don't see it because it's deposited into the vacuum of space and when the universe die all matter and energy will decay back with the "negative energy" to return the universe to it's ground energy level.

[@rafabuda0]

The alerts do make sense. These things can teleport, kidnap multiple individuals every day, can track you indefinitely if you lay eyes on them and actively try to be seen by as many people as possible.

[@BubbaJubbs9926]

One of the big reasons I enjoy TheVolgun so much is because almost all voice work in his videos is done by him and is extremely good. Great video Old Man!

[@brigidtheirish]

The thing with Ireland and belief in fairies is that they weren't alone in that. Parts of Britain allowed "it was really a changeling" as a defense for infanticide *well* into the 20th century. Of course, that didn't get as widely publicized because the powers that be over there had a vested interest in making Ireland look like a backwater while holding Britain up as a shining example of progress and civilization. And *had* for hundreds of years. One of the craziest things about that "they deserve it for Pearl Harbor" response to the 2011 earthquake is that I can dang near guarantee that none of the people saying that were *alive* when Pearl Harbor was attacked. My paternal grandpa served in WWII. He told me about hearing that Pearl Harbor was attacked. He was in the navy and talked a bit about training for the invasion of Japan. He never said a *word* indicating hatred for the Japanese.

[@Shythalia]

And maybe some of those who were saying Japan deserved that (doesn't need to be related to Pearl Harbor) were South Koreans & Chinese as they still kind of hate what Japan did to them to this day, which is understandable and I think Japan has some trouble taking responsibility for their past actions. Correct if I'm wrong though.

[@brigidtheirish]

@@Shythalia If they are, then why use Pearl Harbor instead of bringing up the atrocities Japan committed against their countries? Honestly, I'd understand still being a bit salty about that, particularly since, unlike Germany, Japan likes to pretend they did nothing wrong and most of the rest of the world seems content to go along with it. I don't think it's fair to say that the *entire country* deserves to suffer for the actions of a relative few. Especially when all the perpetrators are almost certainly dead and few people in the country today are probably even *aware* of what happened.

[@Shythalia]

idk just a guess

[@brigidtheirish]

@@Shythalia I suppose it's possible, just unlikely given the specifics. Sounds more like the "everyone in Germany *must* have known *exactly* what was going on in the concentration camps and therefore *all* Germans *forever* are guilty" kind of argument I've run into from time to time.

[@Anarcho-harambeism]

Wait people say that about the 2011 stuff? I get getting nuked, it was that or invasion. But the 2011 earthquake

Depending on the scp unit, this is a wensday

[@LuoSon312_G8]

Scp: "the old man" if war could get worse, it did.

[@queenrhubarb1676]

Scp 3456 is based off of the Nuckelavee a Scottish folklore saltwater creature which is why they can’t cross bodies of freshwater.

[@Matthew_Y]

This scp is based on a mythical creature called a 'nuckelavee'.

[@zeroswat1762]

The Irish have some messed up monsters

[@brigidtheirish]

Ah. So not pookas. When I heard the first video Old Man reacted to and it got to "horse-like creatures," that's what immediately came to mind. Edit: Does explain why they can't cross fresh water. As a sea spirit, fresh water is toxic to them.

[@shemasmcguire3999]

Glad someone other than me caught that

[@insanehiker5587]

I first became familiar with that nightmare thanks to RWBY; the original monster, note there was only one, supposedly blighted the land that it tread upon or salted the earth.

[@rskid777]

​@@insanehiker5587 ya hearing the description reminded me of the battle in season 4 in the abandoned village, very good fight too, shit was mad fucking creepy

[@eagle10799]

The SCP Foundation leaked the designs for the edgy reboot of My Little Pony

[@Shythalia]

Wow. Thank you for giving me an idea for what to draw some time in the future.

[@Ericstefanik260]

I might watch that

[@deaththekidjr9989]

Oh geez...yeah this was one of the few scps that gave me nightmares for a little while.

[@brigidtheirish]

Welcome to European folklore! The draugar of Skyrim have *nothing* on the Scandinavian originals.

[@_AcatHat]

So I'm stopped at 19:42 & I'm guessing they're gathering the living to make into more of them selves ( riders and or horses)

[@Gearshoot]

6:43 yep, I can hear it.

[@ConnorGallacher]

It could be said that the Orcadian Horsen are spectral centaurs. Especially considering many of the SCP 3456 instances have one or more toersos.

[@Darius0796]

Humes readings are like the radiation of weird shit happening. The counters are like a Geiger counter. Higher level, more weird

[@calebmorrow96]

Not the Amish with the perfect timing😂😂😂

[@MrPapamaci88]

Any territory is highly superstitious where the locals consume a ridiculous amount of booze. Ireland is like that, so is Transylvania and so on...

[@themagiccookie2614]

I can second the transylvania one

Thank you so much for checking out my request! The author of this SCP is one of my favorite authors on the wiki, and their SCPs are very unique and interesting.

[@prophetofthe20th45]

I believe the other scp your talking about would be scp 106 the old man no relation

[@piratehunter1]

By the emperor I could hear the hooves!

[@dragontamer7897]

Old man the scp your trying to remember is the OLD MAN

[@thetalantonx]

6:00 - Real and true. Damn.

[@garyvance4172]

I apologize if this has been mentioned already but if I'm not mistaken the Nuckalavee is of Scottish origin.From the Orkney Islands in the FAR north Scottish Isles.

[@dravensanders6157]

Did anyone realize that the Nuckelavee who captured Byers was the same one who capture the Irish and British guys?

[@DivineQuetzalcoatl]

I believe you was thinking about SCP-106 the old man

[@marmyeater]

Less kelpie, more Knuckelavee.

You should check out SCP - In the Pines. There is a lot of them in there (it’s a music video with animations)

[@SCP--lp1bn]

highly recommend scp 1983 doorway to nowhere by the vulgun VA for that is superb

[@Arynightrose0901]

Lol amish timing is perfect XD

[@ApatheticNonbuynary]

You like horror? I recommend these by the Exploring Series scp 2316, scp 3935, scp 4833 and then The Class of 76. All of these SCP stories are related to one another. I think you'll like them very much. Also honorable mentions. SCP 1936, the Hanged King by The Exploring Series, SCP 093, SCP 2978, SCP 342, SCP 3333. There are so many good horror SCPs out there. These are all that stuck with me the longest. There are also those like Daleport and What Happened to Site 13, but. Those are more of an epic adventure with some elements of horror to me, but. Those are cool too nonetheless.
