----

**{{Special Containment Procedures:}}** SCP-7790 is currently contained within an HS3-Class[[footnote]]Highly Secured, Subterranean and Secluded.[[/footnote]] containment locker at Site-94. Access to the anomaly's containment chamber is limited to Level 5 personnel authorized by a member of the O5 Council.

**{{Description:}}** SCP-7790 denotes the remains of a humanoid automaton of unknown origin, most of which was previously located within an abandoned factory in Matanuska-Susitna Borough, Alaska.

SCP-7790 is partially functional. At random times, the anomaly will become active and simultaneously do the following before deactivating:

* Broadcast a series of radio transmissions through its speakers;
* Spontaneously manifest and demanifest a set of unrelated objects within a 100m radius;
* Violently rub the floor with its feet.

SCP-7790's back is heavily damaged, although the word "DIVISION" can still be seen visibly burned onto its surface.

(//A soft object can be heard being tucked onto a bag. A laugh track can be heard intertwined with this noise.//)

{{**[00:56]** -- "That's a good pick. So we're both off to a good start, I see? Good. Welcome to the SCP Foundation."}}
