Whenever I feel stressed out, I just remind myself that I don’t need to worry about an empire of magic cannibals retconning themselves into existence

Their neighbors, the DAVEites were actually really chill and just hung out eating snacks.

Just sayin', IF they are genetically separate from humans, than eating humans doesn't make them cannibals.

I've always been fascinated by the Daevites.

The way I've always thought of it is that SCP 140 was some sort of artifact the Sarkics used to seal the Daevites away because, honestly, given the Daevites power I see no other way their slave revolt would have been successful. When new ink or blood is added to the book the seal gets weaker and the timeline of the book and by extension reality gets closer to what would actually happen had the Sarkics never sealed them away.

This was their civilization's plan. The book would attract those who would want to keep reading, which would allow more pages to be added. Eventually, enough pages would be added to make a change in time, allowing the Daevites to last longer in history, maybe into the modern era. The cost, they would be temporarily defeated or destroyed by whoever they fought against, facing embarrassment across history.

SCP 140: "They will bring fluids to me, and most likely there blood."
Florida MAn: *Chucks book into ocean*
SCP 140: "Wait, thats not how your supposed to play the game."

I wanna throw that book into mount doom and see what happens

SCP-140 is also mentioned in a SCP-01 proposal called "The Database." That SCP-01 Proposal crosses realities making the SCP-Wiki ITSELF SCP-01 & authors additions to it affecting the reality of the individuals in the foundation, it is the most "Meta" proposal for a SCP-01 I can think of.

"Daeva" is a Persian term (cognate) for Indian gods (Deva). After the Indo-Persian split (or perhaps causing it) the word "Daeva" became to denote evil or unideal beings in Persian mythology while in Indian mythology it came to denote gods/demigods. The reverse happened with the terms "Asura" / "Ahura"

please talk about K class scenarios, they really are one of the most interesting bits of the scp lore

[Jay-yvpu]

I would kill for an scp that hunts other scps like something like the doomslayer killing demons

Man I am LOVING this SCP series! Fantastic brother. Thank you.👌👍🙏

[berndmeyer]

What kinda creeps me out about this is that every time the past changes, that of course has some consequences for the present. My theory is that every time the past changes, the present changes, too, and we just can't see it because ofcourse in that exact moment, our entire lives change. Many people may even cease to exist or come into existance because of simply a few drops of whatever come near that book.

Wow the Republic of Dave really makin a bounce back great to hear.

Davites: I have good power
Chinese: SIT DOWN SON!!!

Here's my question does any body fluid work? In video he mentions "a body fluid" and blood, but is blood only fluid that works? Because me personally I would pee on that book to make more pages way before mutilating myself.

2:18 looks like a Roman assualt on Carthage can tell by the uniforms and stuff but i dont mind cause its a badass picture

I got to say even though it could never happen, as the amount of people involved to get it to happen is quite large. It would be so interesting to see the scp setting an foundation turned into a tv series in the vain of an anthology series, which fallows different scpes being found an dealt with, over dealing directly with the scp foundation at large. The amount of interesting stories that could be done even unique ones not existing in the setting yet, as well as interconnected storylines would be massive an interesting.
