Item # : SCP-4717
Object Class : Safe

Containment Procedures : SCP-4717 is to be contained within a 10×10 meter room, on a approximately three foot tall, 6 inches wide and 6 inches long pedestal. There is a metal doorway that allows access only by foundation members of clearance level 3. SCP-4717 is to be held in Site-[REDACTED].

Description: SCP-4717 has the appearance of a regular IPad mini, which has no apps instead of For The Loss Games animation application, Stick Nodes. The game has no nodes except the default stickfigure the game starts off with. Everytime the app opens the stick nodes “demon” Easter egg appears, and will also randomly appear frequently well using the app. Ralph Damiano says the sticknodes demon should not appear that frequently in an interview with him, he is the developer of the game. SCP-4171’s anomalous effects do not effect Ralph Damiano and Sean Byrnes, an admin on the sticknodes website and friend of Ralph. No apple stores have shown any recognization of the model of this iPad mini.

SCP-4717’s anomalous effects begin to appear when someone begins using the app. The default stick figure will appear has a close replica to the person using the app, and attempting to share the iPad will result in the death of the person it is given to. The person will then become addicted to animating on the app. They will begin making figures of people they see, and somehow control said people like they are voodoo dolls. The person will stop doing so after a hour, described as “animators laziness”. A few days later, these people will describe seeing hallucinations of the sticknodes demon and figures they had made, dubbed SCP-4717-1. A month later, these people will be dead and seem to have died the way someone in there animations did. Seeing SCP-4717 will also cause people to really want to use it, becoming obsessed. These people are who become obsessed are known as SCP-4717-2. For an odd reason, the SCP can only be viewed when seen through a transparent object.

SCP-4717 was found in [REDACTED] and was owned by [REDACTED], and it was then taken by the foundation and sent to Site-[REDACTED] located in [REDACTED]. No photos can be taken either, as the hallucinations will still appear throug a photo.
