SCP-956 - Piñata

SCP 956 was a Safe Class turned Euclid Class anomaly also known as Pinata.
SCP-956 appears to be a common piñata, resembling an unknown quadruped.
SCP956 enters its active state when a human enters within 5 meters of it. Approximately 7 to 28 seconds after entering the active zone, the person becomes unable to move, holding any stance they had at the time. The victim is incapable of motion or speech, although it remains alive, and its rapidly moving eyes suggest that it retains awareness. SCP-956 moves towards the victim and bludgeons him or her, until the torso ruptures. Upon breach, the victim's body discharges a large pile of unmarked candy, ranging from 23 to 1323 pieces.

The really creepy part of this anomaly is that the person that triggers SCP-956 are elementary school kids, not adults.

[@Slayershand]

They call it The Child Breaker for a reason... Honestly better not to show it then Censor it so heavy in my eyes.

[@Gaciet017]

Creepier is that in an instance, 956 stayed next to a wall and stared at it for a long time. Wondering what it was trying to do, the researchers analyzed where it would be pointing at, and it turns out that it pointed towards a fricking elementary school 💀

[@ceilyurie856]

@@Gaciet017 AN elementary school MILES away, like, 30 miles. needless to say, the reclassified it to Euclid immediately

[@O111e]

@@ceilyurie856 Though I don't get why they would reclassify it because it looked at a school that was miles away. Classifications are there to say how hard it is to contain, not how dangerous it is.

[@Lenny_MidKnight]

@@O111e probably because they didn't fully understand the extent of it's abilities and they thought they had it under control until that event i guessed they still haven't found a way rn to prevent it's abilities from manifesting like that again

[@stainedglasssparrow9636]

The description of this SCP seem to have been changed, as it mainly affects children below 12. However its true adults eating the anomalous candy die from cardiac arrest but children below 12 who eat the candy are transformed into a new piñata. This anomaly is known as the Child Breaker.

[@ThatCrazySylveonIsAtItAgain]

They can also sense the presence of children miles away. I read the file, apparently one researcher had noticed a 956 instance would always face west in its containment unit. Upon investigation, he found that there was an elementary school in that direction - one that his son and his son's best friend had disappeared from. SCP-956 was transfered to a different site immediately.

According to what I read on the Foundation wiki regarding SCP-956, it only kills children, preferably under 12 years of age. Was this vital information censored from this presentation to avoid problems with KZbin or is this information wrong?

[@petermarshall4445]

Hmm

[@isPlush]

Bamboozled I see

[@Ochicho]

yeah probably censored.

[@anonymousanonymous9587]

You kind of skipped over the fact that only young children feel the worst effects (Or maybe they updated the file IDK), but good video nonetheless

[@ananimeprofile5191]

@@Frostyy_y14 yeah its better when that stuff is left with extremely good writing like scp 6820 (what happens when we finally kill 682) and day breaks. Events that arent confined to humanoid generic evil demon entities that are gonna erase the universe just because. Its way more fun to read scps that show the bizarre side of anomalies like the soul extractor, wooden horse, 674 gun and more. Things that give flavor with weird quirky (arguably objectively useless) abilities that has depth on their implications

[@tigrerojo9685]

One of my favourite aspects of Pinata's is that they're deceptively durable, there's usually at least a few obvious weak points but blinding smacking one has a tendency to prove ineffective so it's kind of cool in that sense that it's next to indestructable as an SCP and *requires* containment.

[@scarletletter4900]

This SCP is proof that you never outgrow pinatas

[@Jawsomest]

Actually the SCP has different effects based on how old you are, Specifically once you're older than 12. So therefore YOU DO outgrow the pinata.

Actually, Dr. Bright did host a Christmas Party in like a very campy sitcom sort of way.
