[[toc]]

Due to the apparent complexity of SCP-9240's para-cybernetic augments, research notes have been appended to an individual document for brevity within the primary ADA file, leaving it for those less-informed in the relevant sciences to use for quick reference.

For further ease of navigation, a table of contents module has been placed on this document for easier digital viewing. This should allow quick access to research notes on any given region of the subject despite the sheer amount of research done.

Throughout research efforts into SCP-9240, the subject was moved from Site to Site for access to specialized equipment and insight from various specialists that were unable to transfer Sites at the time. At the moment, SCP-9240 is primarily housed at Site-19.

+ Dermal Augmentations:

Upon first observation, one of the most prominent augmentation to the subject is a non-continuous, rigid, plate like dermis. Almost akin to an exoskeleton despite the subject still possessing an endoskeleton. These dermal plates are irregular in shape, which is believed to allow the subject greater flexibility than a regular pattern would. Each plate is composed of an underlying ceramic that provides armor equivalent to Level-IV non-anomalous ballistic armor, and a layer of organic skin.

SCP-9240 has expressed discomfort with having these dermal segments visible among peers, explaining the subject's penchant for wearing long-sleeve clothing, pants, turtlenecks, and jackets whenever possible.

Throughout the period of the subject evading Foundation custody and up until SCP-9240's willing surrender, numerous hypothesis as to the purpose of said dermal segments were made:
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
To vent excess heat, which SCP-9240 showed having difficulty with upon extensive use of her cybernetics.

Extra flexibility

Transformation of affected limbs

Access panels into deeper cybernetics for one reason or another
[[/div]]


[[div style="height: 1vh;"]]
[[/div]]

Once SCP-9240 willfully surrendered to Foundation custody, testing showed that many of these hypothesis were correct or at least partially so:

[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]

**Venting Excess Heat**: Prior to containment, the subject admitted to performing her own tests to determine abilities and aspects of her anomaly using stolen scientific equipment. These tests were repeated under Foundation supervision, leading researchers to discover the apparent near-perfect energy-conversion. However, due to the immense amount of energy produced by the subject and used by the subject's cybernetics, large amounts of excess heat is still produced.

A primary factor in SCP-9240's limits is tied to the subject's tolerance to and ability to vent this excess heat. In some instances, it's been observed that the subject's cybernetics will expel water vapor when even more rapid heat expulsion is required.

**Flexibility**: The lowest layer of each dermal plate segment contains a mostly non-anomalous Silicon Carbide-Titanium Diboride composite ceramic. Trace amounts of an unidentified anomalous material is possibly responsible for the relative thinness, lower weight, and ballistics protection of the plates. Despite being much thinner and lighter than typical for ballistics plating made of this composite ceramic, the dermal plates are still equivalent to Level-IV non-anomalous ballistics armor.

It has been proposed that the irregular, organic shaping of the plates allow for the greatest possible flexibility for a given plate locale. The Silicon Carbide-Titanium Diboride composite ceramic also explains the subject's resistance even to armor piercing rounds given it's use in protecting against tungsten cored ballistics.

**Limb Conformational Changes**: In the cases where SCP-9240 possess subdermal augments that require a conformational change to function or access to the subject's environment in some way, the dermal plates appear to mechanically shift position as required. The primary example of this occurring is when the subject activates the weapon embedded in it's right forearm. This weapon is discussed more in-depth within the "Limb Augments" addenda.

**Access Panels**: Much like the conformational change function, the subject's dermal plates can shift position to allow SCP-9240 to access lower-layer structures/cybernetics. Some of these openings can include an entire limb, or only allow small tools into the revealed space.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
SCP-9240 demonstrated this trait by extending it's left arm, and opening the dermal shell to reveal the entire underlying structure including article muscles, wiring/augmented nerves, and some manner of computational unit in it's forearm. The arm's dermal shell appears to be primarily anchored to the posterior brachium.[[span class="fnnum"]].[[/span]][[span class="fncon"]]"Posterior" referring to the back of an anatomical structure; "Brachium" being the medical term for the upper arm (segment between the shoulder and elbow).[[/span]]

An example of a minor conformational change is present on the subject's left wrist. SCP-9240's left arm contains a device that allows the subject to interface with any technology that either possesses wireless communications or a physical port. When the subject wishes to connect to a device's port, a small panel will recede into SCP-9240's wrist and eject a cable with the appropriate port-end for the present device.

[[/div]]


[[div class="blockquote"]]
Although this segmentation would appear to separate the subject's dermal tissue from the rest of her biology, thus starving it of nutrients, fluids, and other sources of energy; it maintains it's health as mostly non-anomalous human skin tissue.

The reason for this is still being researched.

[[div style="height: 2vh;"]]
[[/div]]

+ Limb-specific Augmentations:

SCP-9240 possesses two primary limb augments; one being contained within the subject's left forearm and the other her right forearm. Besides those two augments, the subject's shins appear to be more armored than the arms, potentially to support a secondary striking surface in combat.

The specialized augment within the subject's left forearm is a remarkably versatile tool that allows SCP-9240 to interact with any technology within 500ft that has wireless capabilities or through a wired connection if the device has a port capable of transferring code such as a USB port. Interestingly, the cable for wired connections appears to always have the appropriate head to connect to the targeted device despite there not being enough room within the subject's forearm for storage of the currently tested 24 port types.

SCP-9240's right forearm contains a **HIGHLY** dangerous, integrated weapon that is a primary contributor to the subject's assigned risk-class. It would be fallacious[[span class="fnnum"]].[[/span]][[span class="fncon"]]based on a mistaken belief[[/span]] to call the weapon a rifle as it is not composed of a long barrel, is not technically fired from the subject's shoulder, and does not use the fixed energy of a cartridge to propel a projectile.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
The subject claimed to have only used the weapon a total of 5 times due to understanding how powerful it was.
[[/div]]

The best description for the weapon is an EMF cannon, with plasma-bolts being the result of superheating the air between the two "arms" of the weapon when it's extended and exploiting physics to control the bolt's position.

[[div style="height:2vh;"]]
[[/div]]



SCP-9240 has claimed that the augment contained within her left forearm to be her "most useful weapon", attributing that claim to the common phrase "knowledge is power". The device is made up of two primary components; the main unit which has shown to be a computation unit and a retractable cable for when the subject requires a wired connection to a device.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
The main computational unit is made up of several conventional and non-conventional (potentially anomalous) components including standard solid-state electronics, crystalline units with what appears to be #-dimensional circuits printed within their structure, and fiber-optic cables.

Trace amounts of orichalcum[[span class="fnnum"]].[[/span]][[span class="fncon"]]A crystalline substance originating from Atlantis, capable of storing extreme amounts of digital data and electrical/thaumaturgical energy. While very rare, the Foundation has successfully created synthetic oriykalkos as an inferior but mass-producible alternative.[[/span]] was detected within the cybernetic augment, lending to the subject's claim that it was her "most useful weapon".
[[/div]]

Several devices were presented to SCP-9240 that had been previously disconnected from the Site's digital systems. This test was performed to determine any limits of the augment, and potential methods for disrupting it's functions. Of the 24 devices presented to the subject of varying complexity from an early personal computer to an experimental quantum computing device containing 1,180 qubits, the subject was able to connect to and interact with all of the devices.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
For each device, the subject was able to eject an appropriate cable-head from the wrist port no matter how scarce such a connector should be. This has lead researchers to believe that an appropriate connector is spontaneously generated specifically for the targeted device. The mechanism for doing so is unknown and considered anomalous.

So far, the only known way of disrupting wireless communications of this device is exposure to high levels of ionizing radiation. However, the environmental dosage required to do this has been deemed too dangerous for personnel usage. The subject however only shows temporary discomfort and disruption of cognitive function before returning to normal operation with no signs of permanent damage after exposure ceases.
[[/div]]

When researchers attempted to interact with a computer that the subject had a wired connection to, SCP-9240 verbally warned the researchers to step away from the device saying "that didn't end well the last time I tried...". Upon heading that warning, researchers attempted to use a wireless keyboard and mouse to control the device. When they attempted to interact with the cybernetic augment through the computer, the tower spontaneously combusted.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
How this occurred is not entirely understood as the device contained no explosive materials, and was not being provided by enough voltage by either the subject's augment or the power-supply to produce such a display.

Later examination of footage from a camera that was observing the device were able to pick up a single frame of what appeared to be an anomalous programming language containing thaumic symbols being displayed on the devices screen. Further testing is being requested to determine whether the subject's cybernetics are using a thaumically active code that could interact with SCP-9240's environment outside the use of her cybernetics.

As for the weapon within SCP-9240's right arm; the subject was hesitant to even share details about the augment, and was adamantly against testing it stating "look… I don't want to get anyone killed… this thing in my arm is honestly, fucking terrifying."

Due to the subject's adamant refusal to test the weapon despite her previous willingness and in some cases, excitement during testing; personnel took great precautions and made ample preparations before attempting testing.

The weapon is contained entirely within the subject's right forearm, and is powered by the subject's "core" which is discussed in great detail further into this article. The subject's dermal plates shift to reveal the weapon, that is made up of two rails separated by an interior channel.

By charging the weapon for 1/4 of a second, the subject was able to expel a tight beam of superheated plasma that burned through the hanging pig carcass and left a 1 inch indentation into the adjacent wall of the chamber. The hole weas measured to have a 1.4 inch diameter.

After firing the weapon, the subject collapsed it back into her right arm. As the dermal segments locked into place, steam was ejected through the gaps in the plates. SCP-9240 stated that she could potentially fire hundreds of those "small shots" given the apparent "low power-draw", but that she could also potentially fire one large shot using most of her energy stores.

The subject also showed the potential to use the weapon non-lethally with altered "fire-modes" using the emergent properties of the mechanics used to generate the superheated plasma:
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
A high-pressure burst of air that could be used to disarm an individual or knock them off their feet. This "fire-mode" showed the potential to instantaneously cause an individual to lose consciousness under the right circumstances.

A directional electromagnetic pulse to disable targeted electronics.

[[div style="height: 2vh;"]]
[[/div]]

+ Musculoskeletal Augmentations:

Through the cooperation of the subject, data was collected on the augmentations to SCP-9240's musculoskeletal structure. These augmentations gave the subject high resistances to temperature changes, corrosion chemical attack, rigidity, and greater force output.

SCP-9240's skeletal structure has been coated in the same Silicon Carbide-Titanium Diboride composite ceramic as used in the subdermal armor plating. However, this coating is much thinner and seemingly takes advantage of the other properties of the composite, granting the subject high resistance against chemical agents, thermal stability, and greater hardness. Layered on top of the ceramic coating is a hollow, hexagonal structure formed to the bones similar to a mesh grating. This "mesh" was composed of an unknown metal alloy with trace amounts of beryllium bronze and Thunderbolt Iron.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
The trace elements found within the metal alloy results several beneficial effects for the subject. Beryllium Bronze is a thaumaturgically active metal that amplifies a thaumaturges energy, and Thunderbolt Iron is a potent defense against Fae-folk that both repels and neutralizes their spells in a given area.

Testing the specific area of effect produced by the subject's Thunderbolt-iron content has been deemed currently impossible due to lacking access to Fae-folk for testing in an ethical manner.
[[/div]]

SCP-9240's muscles were found to be mostly replaced by an artificial substitute of an unknown molecular structure. Approximately 5% of the subject's muscle content remained organic, with the current hypothesis being that this is a measure to allow the subject limited movement in the case of cybernetic failure. Biopsies observed under microscopes and further examined with electron microscopy yielded inconclusive data.

Due to safety concerns for SCP-9240, examination of internal structure not-reachable through access panels was limited to X-Ray scans and Computed Tomography Scans as a Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scan would possibly be dangerous due to the subject. Prior to the scans performed by researchers, the subject stated that she had broken into a private company with such machinery to obtain similar scans. Furthermore, the subject claimed that she made those rudimentary scans before the point she figured out how to willfully open sections of her dermal plates.[[span class="fnnum"]].[[/span]][[span class="fncon"]]Radiopaque materials such as metals and ceramics will appear as white, opaque structures in X-ray and CT scans whereas soft-tissues such as skin and muscle will be nearly transparent. Bone is partially radiopaque.[[/span]]

Scans and physical observations showed congruency with each other; the subject's entire skeletal structure was coated in the Silicon Carbide-Titanium Diboride composite ceramic with the metal alloy "mesh" layered on-top as described above. Scans showed no significant deviation from a standard, non-anomalous human skeletal structure.

Further scans of the subject's thoracic cavity yielded inconclusive results, with researchers positing that the cavity is much more shielded than any other portion of the subject.

A hypothesis as to the purpose of the two materials being structured the way they are is that the ceramic layer functions as a general hardened layer and providing other known properties of ceramic alloys while the metal alloy layer supported the ceramic alloy layer by providing additional strength alongside ductility[[span class="fnnum"]].[[/span]][[span class="fncon"]]Ductility is a materials ability to deform plastically (permanently), under tensile stress without fracturing, allowing it to be stretched and drawn out into thin forms such as wires[[/span]]. The metal alloy potentially acts as a force dampener.

[[div class="blockquote"]]
Upon request, the subject opened the dermal plating on her left arm to allow access to the ceramic composite and metal alloy mesh coating her bones. After obtaining scrape samples, researchers noted that the minute damage was repaired with a second, possibly less.

An assay of the metal alloy is what revealed the trace amounts of beryllium bronze and thunderbolt iron, and electron microscopy was used to determine the lattice structures of the alloy and determine the relative amounts of each material.

With a biopsy of SCP-9240's artificial muscles, researchers discovered that they were more akin to organic tissue than they initially assumed given the black coloration. Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) was then used to build 3D models at near atomic scales to further determine molecular structures within the artificial muscle "tissue". This testing yielded structures akin to non-anomalous proteins, but several magnitudes more complex and unlike anything observed before. Attempts at using computational methods to make sense of these structures yielded no results.

The discovery of protein-like structures ignited further study of further artificial "tissues" and artificial protein-like structures within. 

Further analysis revealed several nerve-like structures entwined with the artificial "tissue" that carried ample electrical charge much like power lines, presumed to carry energy from the subject's core to cybernetic augments that require a large energy draw. These artificial "nerves" are discussed in another section of this document.

Non-anomalous human muscle tissue was also found evenly distributed within the artificial muscle "tissue", which researchers presumed to be a failsafe in the case of the subject not having enough electrical energy to activate the artificial muscle "tissue", allowing movement in a scenario such as power failure, albeit very limited movement due to the low amount of non-artificial muscle mass compared to the average, non-anomalous human.







[[div style="height: 2vh;"]]
[[/div]]

+ Cranial/Neural Augmentations:

Computed Tomography scans showed extensive augmentation to SCP-9240's brain including several presumed computational augments. This presumption was made due to the CT scan revealing similar structures as to that found in the subject's left forearm augment; in other words, the radiopaque values of the orichalcum in the left forearm augment matched those of similar objects within the subject's cranial cavity.

Beyond central nervous system augments, it appears to researchers that the subject's entire nervous system has either been enhanced on the molecular level or outright replaced with an enhanced version.

The ethics committee refused testing requests involving researchers drilling into the subject's skull for examination, despite even the subject's apparent enthusiasm and encouragement of the idea.

Minor augments include a significantly lower production of melanin by melanocytes located specifically in the subject's hair follicles leading to the "Ashen Gray" hair coloration, and the subject's irises with varying glow intensity and color.

[[div style="height:2vh;"]]
[[/div]]



At this point in testing and examination of SCP-9240's biology and cybernetic augments, the subject's enthusiasm was reportedly becoming slightly disturbing to the present researchers and other staff that have interacted with SCP-9240. This being an achievement in and of itself with the primary example being the subject deciding to break off one of her index fingers for the researchers to study the augmentations made to her nerves once the other tests had been denied.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
Reportedly, the subject said she wouldn't do it again given it "felt like being stung by a murder hornet and listening to old TV static at the same time."
[[/div]]

Besides the unsettling display, after studying the "sample", researchers determined that the subject's nerves had been significantly enhanced much like the rest of her body. In non-anomalous biology you can have neurons[[span class="fnnum"]].[[/span]][[span class="fncon"]]Simplified Neuron Model: Chemical signal received by dendrite, converted to electrical signal in cell body, and propagated down axon if the charge met the threshold.[[/span]] with myelinated axons, or unmyelinated axons. Unmyelinated axons are present in sensory information and autonomic[[span class="fnnum"]].[[/span]][[span class="fncon"]]Unconscious/Automatic nervous system activity.[[/span]] responses due to their relatively slow "transmit speed"; while myelinated have a much faster "transmit speed".

Researchers found that the subject's somatic[[span class="fnnum"]].[[/span]][[span class="fncon"]]Related to conscious nervous system activity.[[/span]] nerves were augmented on the molecular level to allow them to transmit signals at roughly 1,200 m/s whereas a non-anomalous human's somatic nervous system transmits signals at speeds up to 150 m/s. SCP-9240 can transmit somatic neural signals 8 times faster than a human.

Psychological tests led to understanding the meaning behind each color that the subject's irises appear as and the trigger for increasing the amount they glow.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
A yellow/orange coloration is present when the subject is interacting with nearby technology, with the glow intensity tied to how much computation is being required by the subject.

A dark red is associated with negative emotions, anger, high-stress, and/or heavy use of the subject's cybernetics. The glow intensity in this case is tied to the level of physiological stress created by the circumstance.

Blue colors can range from a "ghostly blue" to a grey-ish blue and is considered to be the base color for the subject's irises and is not tied to any specific emotion. A glow has only been observed in low-light conditions when the subject is in this state.
[[/div]]






[[div style="height: 2vh;"]]
[[/div]]

+ Torso Augmentations:

SCP-9240's torso was the final study focus during this period of time. This was due both to the relative difficulty in examining this portion of the subject's body and the subject's account of "that's where the most fun stuff is."

Unlike with the subject's limbs, SCP-9240 could not open significant access panels on her torso for researchers to examine through. That paired with the heavy shielding to the subject's thoracic cavity led researchers to taking creative measures to examine the contents, some of which leading to personnel injury.

Besides numerous minor augments to each of the subject's organs presumed to enhance their function in some way, SCP-9240 possesses 5 highly specialized augments to her torso:
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
2 accessory organs of unknown purpose

A sphere behind the subject's sternum with several cables protruding from it's surface and extending out into the subject's limbs; due to the thoracic cavity shielding, no more descriptors are available for this augment.

SCP-9240's spine appears to have been completely replaced with a cybernetic analog that becomes visible at the T2 vertebra. This augment deviates from standard vertebral structures at the S1 vertebra (Sacral region), extending further into the next structure.

The subject's spine extends 80 inches past it's deviation point into a thin, prehensile cybernetic tail. This tail is often wrapped around the subject's hips when not in use, and is completely inorganic.
[[/div]]



[[div style="height:2vh;"]]
[[/div]]

[[div style="height:2vh;"]]
[[/div]]



Researchers were only able to determine the rough shapes of the 2 small accessory organs within the subject's Abdominopelvic cavity[[span class="fnnum"]].[[/span]][[span class="fncon"]]Combination name for the abdominal and pelvic cavities containing digestive, reproductive, and other support organs.[[/span]]. All tests done to determine their function during the initial testing period resulted in inconclusive data.

As for the sphere behind SCP-9240's sternum, the subjected claimed it to be both a power core and a solid-state backup of her mind in the case of severe brain damage. Testing was not able to confirm the second claim by the subject, but thermal imaging was able to confirm that this "core" was the source of SCP-9240vast energy.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
If testing of the subjects integrated plasma weapon was anything to go by, the power output of this "core" was very intriguing. 

Testing to determine it's max output and how much heat build-up the subject could withstand is what lead to the most personnel injuries. Tests using increasingly durable and expensive equipment to attempt reading the upper limits of this "core" led to severe electrical discharge related injuries.
[[/div]]

As for SCP-9240's spine; alongside the augmentations to her musculoskeletal structure, the reinforcement of her spine allowed the subject to lift and withstand extreme pressures. This was demonstrated by the subject simulating 20x gravity in a 4-meter diameter column that she was standing within using her psychokinetic ability. 

SCP-9240's cybernetic tail is the only augment to deviate from the standard humanoid body-plan. The tail begins at the subject's S1 vertebrae, and is flexible enough for SCP-9240 to wrap it around her hips like a belt. The tail's structure is a relatively thin band, shaped as a pointed oval. Whenever the subject wishes, the end of the tail can slightly shift to reveal a blade within which she can use as a "whip-blade" that has shown to cleave standard aluminum sheets with ease.
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
The tip of the tail has also been observed to split into 3 micro-manipulators, making it a prehensile appendage.

+ Capabilities of Unknown Origin:

Although most of SCP-9240's capabilities can be clearly connected to one para-cybernetic, or multiple working in tandem, not all of the subject's capabilities can be similarly "placed". Possible but unidentified sources of these capabilities include:
* The thaumaturgical active materials present in the subject's para-cybernetics' construction such as "beryllium bronze" & "true orichalcum".
* A structure that appears to be an Everhart Resonator, which is a device capable of converting electrical energy into EVE particles to power thaumaturgical practices. This has not been confirmed



SCP-9240 possess several capabilities that cannot be attributed purely to her paratechnological cybernetics, with the possibly of thaumaturgical influences or otherwise unknown anomalous effects being present. Those unexplained capabilities include:
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
Psychokinesis/Telekinesis: it is unknown whether this is related to thaumaturgy, spontaneous generation of gravitons, or some other anomalous mechanism. The subject uses this ability to levitate and/or fly.

Pocket Dimensional Storage: SCP-9240 is cable of generating artificial "ways" into either multiple pocket dimensions or just one in particular. The subject has been observed to use this capability to store all manner of items, including those one would expect to decompose. It is presumed that the interior space of this dimension does not allow the passage of time UNLESS the subject enters this space herself.

"6th Sense" for Nearby Anomalous Influences: The subject has reliably been able to sense certain nearby anomalous entities/objects within a given area. The range of this capability and the criteria for the subject being able to sense the object/entity is being tested.

Rapid Healing/Repair: The subject has been known to completely regenerate lost appendages in a manner of minutes depending on the severity of damage, including the artificial cybernetic components. However, the subject has stated that this capability requires the raw materials to be present either nearby or within her "storage" to occur. This results in the subject attempting to always recover lost body-parts, or storing "emergency rations" of raw materials used in her composition.

After further testing, it was determined that SCP-9240's 2 auxiliary organs in her Abdominopelvic cavity function were to produce nanomachines used in possibly hundreds of different functions within her body.

These nanomachines had a variety of structures to serve their predetermined functions. These organs could also supply non-anomalous biological proteins to the subject's non-artificial tissues if they were in short supply. The more intriguing functions of these "manufactured" nanomachines/proteins included:
[[div style="padding-left: 5px; border-left: thin solid black; margin-left: 2vh;"]]
rapid healing/repair of organic and artificial tissues/structures respectively

producing a rapid response defense against foreign chemical agents 

being discharged out of the subject to perform minor functions such as reflecting specific wavelengths of visible light, which the subject claimed to have used as camouflage at one point.

being discharged out of the subject to "digest"/absorb raw materials for use in healing/repair when she wasn't able to herself.
