LEVEL 3 CLEARANCE OR HIGHER REQUIRED

"Upgrading security clearance on this thing, since, apparently, we can't trust researchers to act like responsible adults."

Item Number: SCP-####

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-#### is to be kept on a scale in a soundproof safe within a soundproof containment cell at Site-██. Access to the unit is restricted to personnel of security clearance level 3 or higher. Express permission from the head of staff at Site-██ is required if SCP-#### is to be removed for testing. SCP objects capable of speech are not to be brought into contact with SCP-####.

Profanity is not to be used around SCP-#### during testing, or when referring to the object. SCP-####'s mass is to be remotely monitored. Any change in the object's mass is to be immediately reported to the head of staff at Site-██, and is cause for immediate investigation. In such an event, personnel found responsible for an increase in SCP-####'s mass will be subject to immediate disciplinary action, and Class-A amnestics will be administered to Site-██'s staff.

In the interest of preventing containment breach, information regarding SCP-#### is to be withheld from personnel below security clearance level 3, unless they are specifically assigned to the object. Personnel monitoring SCP-#### will be given a falsified version of this document with a different set of anomalous effects.

Potential monetary losses caused by SCP-#### are not liable to be reimbursed by the Foundation.

Description: SCP-#### is a one (1) liter glass jar with a crude paper label reading "Swear Jar". The lid sealing the jar has a rectangular slot cut out of its center. Testing has revealed no discernible difference between the composition of SCP-#### and a normal jar. Despite this, attempts to destroy SCP-#### or retrieve its contents have thus far proven unsuccessful.

When profane language is directed towards SCP-#### or used within earshot of the object, it exhibits the following effects:

An amount of US currency between five (5) cents and ten (10) dollars manifests within the jar. This money is taken from the subject swearing at SCP-####. This amount appears to change with the perceived severity of the swear.

If the subject has insufficient funds on their person, an item of value that they are currently carrying manifests within the jar. Items taken have included watches, jewelry, precious metals, gemstones, bank cards, and transplanted organs. This effect also varies based on the perceived severity of swearing.

If the subject swearing at SCP-#### has nothing of significant value on their person, US currency between five (5) cents and ten (10) dollars will manifest within the jar, taken from the nearest possible source in relation to the subject.

SCP-#### has been found to exhibit these properties regardless of the language of swearing. The object appears to have hearing consistent with that of an adult human.

SCP-#### currently has a weight of ██.███ kg, a number which has gradually increased since its containment by the Foundation. Despite the object's mass, its contents never appear to exceed a point about three quarters of the way up the jar. The current containment procedures were devised following Incident-####-01, during which the object's largest increase in mass was observed.

Testing Log ####-A

View Testing Log Access Granted The following tests were conducted as part of an investigation into SCP-####'s anomalous effects. Test-####-A-01: D-5681 is instructed to say ███.

Result: Twenty-five (25) cents manifests within SCP-####. Test-####-A-02: D-5681 is instructed to say ███.

Result: No effect. The following tests were conducted to determine if SCP-#### observed any prejudice in removing valuables from a subject's person based on the severity of a swear. For this purpose, D-3963 was outfitted with a variety of objects that had previously been taken by SCP-####, including a wristwatch, a bank card, a gold ring, and a pearl necklace. Test-####-A-__: D-3963 is instructed to say ███.

Result: Wristwatch manifests within SCP-####. Test-####-A-__: D-3963 is instructed to say ██████.

Result: D-3963's kidney manifests within SCP-####.

Notes: Analysis of subject's medical history revealed that he had received the organ in a transplant two years prior. No further tests deemed necessary. Testing is currently suspended.

Testing Log ####-B

View Testing Log Access Granted The following tests were conducted as part of an investigation into SCP-####'s physical properties. A majority of these tests were conducted by D-class personnel under the supervision of Dr. ██████ in SCP-####'s containment unit, unless otherwise stated. Test ####-B-01: D-3249 is instructed to place a nickel in SCP-####'s slot.

Result: Coin enters the object without incident. Test ####-B-02: D-3249 is instructed to remove SCP-####'s lid.

Result: D-3249 attempts, unsuccessfully, to open SCP-#### for approximately 10 minutes before Dr. ██████ instructs him to stop. One (1) dollar manifests within object. Note: D-class personnel used in testing are now gagged to prevent them from swearing in SCP-####'s presence. Test ####-B-03: D-3249 is given a pair of tweezers and instructed to remove a bill from SCP-####.

Result: D-3249 is able to successfully grab onto a bill but is unable to remove tweezers. Tweezers unrecoverable. Test ####-B-04: D-3249 is instructed to insert a finger into SCP-####.

Result: Overridden. Test ####-B-05: D-3249 is given a hammer and instructed to hit SCP-####.

Result: Hammer proceeds to reflect off of SCP-#### with immense force, breaking several bones in D-3249's arm. No damage to SCP-####. Test ####-B-06: Object is taken into a standard containment cell. D-7812 instructed to throw SCP-#### against the wall of the chamber.

Result: Object rebounds and hits D-7812 in the forehead, immediately knocking him unconscious. No damage to SCP-####. Test ####-B-07: D-9112 instructed to hold SCP-#### upside-down and shake it.

Result: Test aborted, as D-9112 is apparently unable to lift SCP-#### due to its weight. Test ####-B-08: D-6543 instructed to hold SCP-#### upside-down and shake it.

Result: Matter within object remains fixed to the bottom of SCP-####. Test ####-B-09: SCP-#### is dropped from the roof of Site-██.

Result: Object destroys the windshield of Researcher ███████'s car. No damage to SCP-####. One (1) dollar manifests within object. Test ####-B-10: SCP-#### is crushed under a hydraulic press.

Result: Hydraulic press destroyed. No damage to SCP-####. Test ####-B-11: SCP-#### is crushed between two hydraulic presses.

Result: Overridden. Deemed "a pointless waste of foundation equipment" by Ethics Committee.
