It takes a village to raise a— uhhh, to raise a child… And this time, I was privileged to be part of a village of several writers, coders, and artists, all working together over the course of several months to raise several children. This Anthology, for many reasons, was a very special experience for me, and I will always remember fondly the weeks spent writing, talking, and joking with this team. You are all so wonderful, and please never question your power at the pen.
Special thanks to Yossipossi, for everything;
to xexnoncores, for pointing out that Sun was really the main character of this story;
to psul, for some wicked-good line-by;
to S D Locke, for giving love to the first draft;
to Luxaiko and GraveCreations, for their incredible free art (among other things);
to my off-site friends John and Laura, who damn-near bled over a line-by that was crucial to the overall development of the work;
to my other off-site friends Kitty and Sam, who were constantly rooting for me from the very moment I knew I was going to be writing Chesed;
to several others, whom I cannot name, for the sake of secrecy;
and to Eccentric549, for keeping me sane when I need to be, and irrevocably insane at all other times.

Welcome to the SCP Anthology 2025! This year's theme is the Kabbalah Tree of Life, a central part of Jewish mysticism. We have ten entries planned, starting from October 21st and being posted one a day until Halloween night! I hope you enjoy what we've been cooking this year!

Much like the 2024 SCP Anthology, this year's hub has its own aesthetic flavor: Disco Elysium! I love the artstyle and presentation of the game, and I felt it would work swimmingly in combination with a horror anthology centered around the Sephiroth of the Tree of Life.

I would like to thank my collaborators for all of their incredibly hard and dedicated work, of which this page would (quite literally) be impossible without:

• EstrellaYoshte, who did the page background and header art as well as much of the initial set up and coding;
• Luxaiko, who did the icon art for each Sephirah, made the page footer art, and helped me corral the authors into actually writing;
• GraveCreations, who did the banner art for each Sephirah and was incredibly good at boosting morale with his witty jokes;
• TheExploringSeries, who lent us his beautiful voice for a recording of each Sephirah;
• radian628, who did much of the fancy animation and custom javascript necessary to have fancy animations.

Thank you to all of the authors who wrote for this year's anthology; I would thank you by name, but, well, you know. Winkie face emoji here.

And, of course, thank you to S D Locke for your permission to run this year's anthology, along with your continued critique and morale support!

That's all for now. Keep your eyes peeled; God is watching, after all.

SCP-8980 was a very difficult piece for me to write. I began drafting it in May of 2024, and didn't stop working on it near-daily until I posted it October 6th of that same year. The entire time, I had assumed it would just be a labor of love, and would only be appreciated by a small group of Wiki authors, who would shill it endlessly trying to push its rating past +200. I did not have high hopes for the article even if I was proud of it, due to its length and its squeezed placement between other SCP Anthology entries.

Obviously, that did not happen. Within twelve hours it had hit +100, then +200 in thirty-two, and then +300 in seventy-two. It was a reception I could not possibly comprehend; videos, viral TikToks, analysis threads, and more — far, far more. It was both very shocking, and also very comforting, to know I was able to touch the hearts of so many people with my writing.

It has been a year since then. My mental state has improved steadily, and while I've regressed into depressive episodes occasionally, my life has been an upwards-inclined slope. I'm eternally grateful for the people in my life who have made it worth living, and thank God for the providence afforded to me. If I've learned anything in the interim since posting, it's that there's enough light in the world for all of us — never lose hope.

The poem (or, well, set of poems) is the first I've ever written. I apologize if it's not particularly elegant; I nonetheless attempted to use the principles of poetry to the best of my ability to convey the emotions of the characters and the themes of the piece. Each character I drew upon different parts of myself to write their respective poems.

I want to thank several people (in no particular order, and certainly not an exhaustive list) for their impact on me, related to this article:

• My sister, for being my first beta-reader, and encouraging me to write more.
• Miss Lapis, xexnoncores, and PandoraNuker for inspiring me, in turn, from getting inspired by my works. (And VapidPoem, who knows what they did.)
• slothinhellfire on Discord, who gave me a crash course in poetry and helped me at ungodly hours to refine my poems.
  • • UncannyClown as well, for introducing me to them, and helping me greatly with last-minute free verse critique.
• My critiquers (the ones I have not already mentioned): EmotionalEntropy, OptimisticLucio, Elunerazim, iammuffin, Tufto, PoufyPoufson, and Raddagher. I appreciate the assistance immensely.

And thank you for being here. I appreciate you.

That's also, by total coincidence, almost EXACTLY how many words are in this scp. So yeah, pretty cool.

Hope ya like it, I liked writing it. :)

Stacy Femcop's pronouns are he/they. I'm probably gonna do more with him in the future, but who can say!

This is my first skip in over a year! I figured this contest would be a good opportunity to get back into writing these things. Here's to many more!

This article comes from a personal place and is extremely metaphorical, in the sense that it's a metaphor for many, many different things that coalesce under a similar banner. Thankfully, I'm not much like the protagonist of this article, in regards to almost everything besides a few key details. I don't know how much of it will get across, but I hope the piece will be impactful regardless. I encourage readers to elaborate on their own interpretations in the discussion.

Thank you to my critiquers Calibold, AriadnesThread, pr0m37h3um, PlaguePJP, Dexanote, EmotionalEntropy, xexnoncores, Anyar, sugarush, adanaist, Placeholder000, and Wynths. I appreciated your feedback.

I am happy to answer any and all questions about the article translators may have. Please feel free to reach out to me.

this is the most amount of time i've spent on bullshit in my entire life.

This is an (affectionate) parody of the SCP Anthology 2024, run by S D Locke! That page was a tribute to Rod Serling; this one's just goofy shenanigans vaguely flavored like him.

Currently, none of the placards have actual entries attached to them. But, if you post an article inspired by any of the placards (that at least vaguely follows the story of the audio recording) and it's not low-effort, I would be happy to link it from this page! ^-^

Big thank you to Jak Mockery, my coauthor, for playing the voice your hear in the audio recordings. He put in insane effort for this project, and it literally would not be possible without him. Hire him for your projects and follow him on BlueSky NOW!!!

Also thank you to the following people who helped contribute to this project:

All licensing information can be found in the page's license box at the bottom!

I don't have a lot of tips for translators this time, besides "I'm so sorry." Nonetheless, please feel free to reach out to me if you intend to translate this and have any questions or ideas!

Happy April Fools, everyone!

Some general rules for contributing:

• Follow the rules of the anomaly faithfully. Try not to explicitly contradict earlier logs. Only rule that can be broken is "hits the target in five seconds" if it's physically impossible or weirdly impractical.
• Don't be too fucky with the formatting, and try to stay visually consistent. Some CSS is fine as long as it's not too invasive.
• Use clinical tone and writing comprehension. Don't have huge blocks of text or out-of-character dialogue.
• Make sure your contribution to the log adds something unique. Don't just repeat an earlier log.
• Crosstesting is allowed, but it should make sense.

I reserve the right to remove entries (or slightly modify for SPaG). That being said, don't be afraid to get funky with it. As long as your entry is at least not bad, I'm totally chill with it. Have fun!

This was an idea I originally had back during the SCP-7000 Contest. djkaktus wanted to get a bunch of luck-related prompts from friends and pick one at random. This one was picked, but he eventually scrapped the draft.

I was showering yesterday when suddenly out of nowhere the punchline for this article clicked in my head. I dropped everything I was doing (after I finished the shower, I mean) and immediately wrote this in an hour. A day of critique later, and here we are.

It's a bit of a silly article, but I think some levity is necessary after the agony that was SCP-8980. Don't worry, I'll go back to writing pain soon. :P

Thank you to my wonderful critiquers: FlyPurgatorio, djkaktus, AriadnesThread, Calibold DrYossarian, Jezixo, Nagiros, Nagiros's wife, pr0m37h3um, aismallard, Dr Asteria, PoufyPoufson, JackalRelated, GraveCreations, and Dr Maxwells Channel.

I let my horns grow longer; I observed my skin get redder
My soul became a hammer; I started to feel better
My hatred turned to pity; my resentment blossomed flowers
My bitter tasted candy; my misery was power
The truth in me grew brighter—my nature and my nurture

Do you believe in God? I don’t think I ever asked you that one. Well I do now. But my God isn’t your Catholic varietal or your Judaic or Mormon or Baptist or Seventh Day Adventist or whatever/ whatever. No burning bush, no angels, no cross. God’s a house. Which is not to say that our house is God’s house or even a house of God. What I mean to say is that our house is God.

'Cause this is the part where I shut up and let you infest my brain
Wrap your arms around my cortex, dig you in and let you drain
You'll never get rid of me, oh, I'm like a fucking disease!
I'll make a home in your gut
'Cause it's somewhere warm to sleep

找不到合适的代码吗？

在找一个炫酷的版式吗？

想做一个能够吸引眼球的meta效果吗？

这都不成问题，如果你有任何有关于代码（或其它）问题，都可以肆无忌惮的留言，我一定会尽力去给你回复（为了适应新人需求，我会尽力少放链接）；
同时，本帖还支持“接单”业务！比方写文，但是又要做代码，没法专心致志。这时你只需要把代码要求交给我，我会尽力完成要求的，--前提是要署我名并v我5￥--

任何文不应该死在代码上，这是多么的惋惜啊！所以我有感而发，创建了这个讨论串。（bushi）
叫我 墨 就行，这也是一个宣传自己的好机会（）
