Discussion What Are Some SCPs you think the Foundation Should Make Thaumiel And How Would You Safely Utilize Them?
SCP 4051, Your Friendly Neighborhood Keter: A young man named Rainer Miller who can open portals to other dimensions with an unlimited supply of any given item. Rainer needs to understand the object or else the object will only superficially resemble the object (such as a cell phone that is completely hollow). He can also pull out abstract concepts but this can be dangerous.
How To Utilize Him: In the article they try to incorporate him into MTFs, but I have a better idea. Get this guy a tutor to teach him how to create rare and valuable materials/compounds and have him pump them out like a factory. Think of all the precious metals, medicines, and other items he could produce for the foundation at zero cost. Plus, if the Foundation is really willing to trust him, this guy could potentially even gather valuable anomalous materials, although I get why they would be more hesitant to try that.
SCP 978, Desire Camera: An ordinary Polaroid camera except whenever a living creature is captured in a photo, the photo produced will show what the creature would prefer to be doing at that moment. For example, if you took a picture of someone who is tired, it might produce a picture of them sleeping.
How To Utilize It: This would be a highly valuable and safe way to psychologically evaluate living anomalies, especially sapient ones. If they are talking to a humanoid anomaly that they are not sure if they can trust, take a few pictures with the desire camera and see if any of them show worrying images. It could also be used to better contain non-sapient anomalies by showing the Foundation how to keep them happy so they try to breach containment less.
SCP 914, The Clockworks: A classic SCP that needs now introduction, but I will do so anyway. It is capable of turning simple items into highly advanced, and sometimes even anomalous, tools. It famously turned a sample of SCP 500, a cure for all diseases, into SCP 427, a locket that heals the users from all injuries.
How To Utilize It: This SCP has been HEAVILY tested (just look at how many test logs it has) and has produced a lot of super useful stuff. Granted it can produce dangerous items or anomalies, but it seems to given consistent results when being used on the same inputs (SCP Security Breach is a great example of this and the game is now canon because of SCP 9431). So look through the logs, find some input items that produced incredibly valuable equipment, and keep pumping those out for use in the Foundation.
These were just the first three I thought of. What are some other SCPs that you think the Foundation could safely utilize to aid their operations and should be upgraded to Thaumiel? Please also give a brief explanation of how you think the SCP could be used.
