**Special Containment Procedures:** SCP-7452 is to be contained in an item locker at Site-56. Research is currently underway to identify a possible method to awaken SCP-7452 for experimentation.

**Description:** SCP-7452 is the skull of an //Ursus americanus// (black bear) possessing an intense fluctuating signature of Elan-Vital Energy (EVE). The item was obtained from Eric Klammanski, designated PoI-7452.

According to PoI-7452, when SCP-7452 is active, it possesses flames in its eye sockets and speaks in a deep, masculine voice. The item is allegedly able to predict future events including, but not limited to, games of chance. The user is required to sacrifice blood to SCP-7452 before soliciting it for predictions.

Following its acquisition by the Foundation, SCP-7452 is presently dormant. A method of awakening it has not been determined due to a lack of knowledge held by PoI-7452 regarding such a process.

------
**Addendum:** SCP-7452 was obtained in Kyuzhevitz, North Carolina, USA. Prior to containment, PoI-7452 attempted to use information gathered from the object to win the Super-Duper Millions Jackpot on July 18, 2014. A video was filmed by a bystander during the event and posted to social media; PoI-7452 admitted to the existence of SCP-7452 in this video, alerting Foundation webcrawlers. Site-56 personnel were dispatched and successfully detained PoI-7452.

Following containment, the convenience store in which the aforementioned event occurred was identified. The store's security footage of the event was obtained successfully; the transcript below has been written with data gathered from both the security footage and the video filmed by the bystander.

= **Transcript 7452-1**

**Location:** Choi's Corner Market in Kyuzhevitz, NC, USA

**Date:** July 18, 2014

**Foreword:** The Super-Duper Millions Jackpot draws its numbers every Friday at 22:00 EDT.

//It is 21:50 EDT. PoI-7452 is waiting behind another customer at the cash register, fidgeting with a piece of paper. His right hand is bandaged. He continuously checks his wristwatch and wipes the sweat from his face.//

//The customer in front of PoI-7452 finishes the transaction and walks away from the counter. The clerk, identified as store owner Kang-doo Choi, waves goodbye.//

**Choi:** Thank you, come again!

//Choi turns towards PoI-7452 as the latter approaches the counter with the paper.//

//PoI-7452 grins as he sets the paper on the counter and claps his hands.//

**PoI-7452:** Choi, my man! You know the drill, one Super-Duper ticket my good sir.

//Choi frowns as PoI-7452 points at the paper.//

**PoI-7452:** I got the winning numbers //right here//, they're uh... 

//PoI-7452 looks down at the paper.//

**PoI-7452:** Eight, six, seventy-five, thirty...

//PoI-7452 looks up at Choi, who is shaking his head.//

**Choi:** Eric, out of good conscience, I refuse to sell you any more lotto tickets.

**PoI-7452:** Wha- how come?! 

**Choi:** You've spent thousands of dollars on the lotto. Scratchers, Super-Duper, Lucky Horseshoe, and every time you win //nothing//. 

**PoI-7452:** Okay, but now I //know// the numbers, Choi. I'll actually win now, just let me enter one last time!

**Choi:** I will //not// indulge your addiction anymore, for your own good.

**PoI-7452:** Sir, just- after this, after today, I'll be set for life! Please just sell me the ticket!

**Choi:** No means no, Eric.

//PoI-7452 rubs his forehead and hair with his hands.//

**PoI-7452:** You know you're losing my money by refusing me service, right Choi?

//Choi looks at the line of customers behind PoI-7452, one of which is holding up a smartphone to film the event.//

**Choi:** I can survive without watching you suffer. There's paying customers behind you with places to be.

//PoI-7452 checks his watch.//

**PoI-7452:** Shit, nine fifty-four!

//PoI-7452 holds up the paper and points at it.//

**PoI-7452:** These numbers'll expire in six minutes! I need to play them //now!//

**Choi:** Play them next week, today you take a break.

**PoI-7452:** But Choi, I can't- I can't play them next week, I told you!

**Choi:** Why not?

//PoI-7452 pauses to breathe and wipe his brow.//

**PoI-7452:** Look, uh... I found this bear skull, right? It was like a- a magic skull, it could talk to me and predict the future. I had to give it my blood...

//PoI-7452 shows Choi his bandaged hand.//

**PoI-7452:** ...to get it to tell me today's lottery numbers. The problem is, after it told me, it fell asleep, and I don't know how to wake it up for next week's lottery. So that's how I got these numbers and why I need to use them //today.//

//Choi stares at PoI-7452.//

**Choi:** You need to see a doctor.

**PoI-7452:** Wait- no, I'm not bullshitting, I promise! Just let me play one more time, sir! Please!

//PoI-7452 clasps his hands together.//

**PoI-7452:** Mister Choi, I beg you. Just one more game, then I'll never, //ever// play again. I'll give you twenty-five... thirty percent of the winnings. 

//PoI-7452 leans forward towards Choi.//

**PoI-7452:** Just //one// more time, then I'll quit forever. Please sir, //please.//

//Choi looks behind PoI-7452 at the line of customers. He takes a deep breath.//

**Choi:** This //will// be your last lotto, Eric. What are the numbers again?

//PoI-7452 pumps his fists.//

**PoI-7452:** YES! Okay, uh... eight, six, seventy-five, thirty, and nine.

**Choi:** ...seventy-five, thirty-nine?

**PoI-7452:** No, it's...

//PoI-7452 holds up the paper towards Choi and points at the numbers on it.//

**PoI-7452:** It's thirty, as in "three-zero", and //then// the last number is nine.

**Choi:** Three-zero, and nine. Five dollars.

//PoI-7452 inserts his credit card into the card reader. It beeps twice.//

**Choi:** It declined.

**PoI-7452:** NO!!

//PoI-7452 turns towards the line of customers behind him.//

**PoI-7452:** Can someone pay for me? I'll pay you back, I promise!

//The other customers snicker at PoI-7452.//

**Customer 1:** Get a job!

**PoI-7452:** You don't get it! I found a magic skull and it told me today's lottery numbers! One more play and I'm set for life!

**Customer 2:** Go see a shrink, you junkie!

//PoI-7452 scratches his head and looks at his watch.//

**PoI-7452:** Look, uh... I got a blanket and a pack of Newports in my car, I'll give them to you, just someone //please// help a brother out!

//Another customer checks her phone, then looks at PoI-7452.//

**Customer 3:** If I pay, will you finally leave?

**PoI-7452:** Yes yes yes! Please!

//Customer 3 sighs and approaches the counter. She places her six-pack of beer on the counter, Choi scans it.//

**Choi:** With the lotto ticket, it's eleven ninety-seven.

//The customer inserts her credit card into the reader. It beeps once; Choi nods his head at PoI-7452.//

//The lottery ticket is printed out, Choi hands it to PoI-7452, who examines it.//

**PoI-7452:** Nine fifty-nine! I fucking made it! Nine fifty-nine!

//PoI-7452 laughs as he pumps his fists in the air.//

**Customer 3:** Excuse me, my Newports?

**PoI-7452:** Of course, of course! Thank you so, so, //so// much, ma'am! 

//PoI-7452 looks at Choi.//

**PoI-7452:** And Choi, you're the man as always! Thank you for coming around!

//Customer 3 and PoI-7452 exit the store as the latter points at Choi.//

**PoI-7452:** As I promised, twenty percent!
