SCP-2480 - An Unfinished Ritual (SCP Animation)

SCP-2480 is a Presumed Neutralized Class anomaly also known as An Unfinished Ritual.
SCP 2480 is speculated to be a dimensional anomaly located in Massachusetts, a coastal and heavily forested town with just over 9,000 residents.
SCP2480 appears to be centered around Bodfel Manor, home of the late Cornelius P. Bodfel III (b. 1866 - d. 1952)1 - millionaire industrialist with an acute interest in the occult. Prior to his death, Bodfel was the leader of a secret society known as Adytum's Wake. Dismissed by the Foundation in 1932 as simply being a "decadent upper-class social club", their anomalous capabilities were not recognized until the November 28, 1952 incident.
SCP-2480 is hypothesized to be a dimensional anomaly that cannot be directly perceived. This cognitohazardous effect interferes with perception in such a way that only through the use of perception altering chemicals and / or the direct and sustained observation of its effects on local reality it may be detected.

One thing worth noting, I'm pretty certain that it wasn't the doctor who became agitated during the interview. It was Karcist Karvas, SCP-2480-1, who was gravely offended by the doctor's casual use of Ion's name among other things, so he broke away from his restraints by self-amputating both of his arms in an attempt to attack the doctor.

[@Nyurzo]

Yeah, they screw up this one.

Youre correct. I've always wondered what he's abt to attack him w since he doesn't have arms now 😬😬 just start throwing a maylay of kicks 🤣🥸

[@vituscorvinus3110]

Also wasnt "Ion" here stated to be an imposter of Ion? Lore-wise, why would Ion be doing "evil" stuff like this?

[@hammeroftyr]

@@vituscorvinus3110 I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I don't think anyone here claimed to *be* Ion. Karvas was a Karcist, which is the leader or high-ranking member of a Sarkic cult. As for Ion doing evil things, well, most of Sarkic mythos is comprised of gruesome mutations, slaughter, insanity and the likes and Ion himself is no different.

Just remember, the foundation is absolutely certain that Bodfel Manor was attached to potentially a combination of Daevite and Sarkic cults, the fact they could work together when either is dangerous enough with an ability to summon or otherwise awaken a dimension of creatures that are towering some 30 feet, is immortal, indestructible, and possibly so powerful it can defeat all of the species of the world. They wouldn't want to study this. The foundation doesn't just wanna contain them, it is prime objective is to keep mankind safe or continuing.
