SCP - 2399: The Destroyer.

File Updated: SCP 2399 - "The Savior".

[atomiste]

The Destroyer : "ahhh screw it." *unbreaks your day*

[-uk]

179: took you long enough. Met the humans?

2399: yes. One of them roled a nat 20 on persuasion

I like this angle. That the destroyer's purpose was to stop the sun from turning wrong, and that the foundation indirectly caused this event by keeping it contained.

[geraldballinger]

The sun:"become a flesh monster like the rest"
The destroyer:"I'm not made of flesh"
The sun:"....well that's a bit of a problem"
Destroyer:" *for you it is* "

[m.x.c]

the destroyer being the hero all along is such a good twist

[Jay_A_Comenter]

Tbh this is the last SCP I thought would be affected by this

[Arzon]

The destroyer: Aight, let me turn the sun off and on again real quick.

[Real]

Finally a SCP-001 story that doesn't end with everyone becoming fleshbeasts.

I'd love to see the conversation between The Destroyer & Sauelsueser.

2399: "Request: I would like to enter your brother."

900: "... normally I'd object, but he already seems to have a stick up his ass- so have at it."

2399: "Statement: You have spent too much time among the humans."

This. This series right here is why When Day Breaks is my favorite 001 Proposal. Not only is it terrifying that something like this happens, but it also, as demonstrated through this series, completely opens the door to a fascinating premise, especially with the context of every other SCP in extistence. How would they be effected by this? Would some ally with Humans or retain their destructive nature? It's fascinating, and I love it.

The malfunctioning destroyer will always be one of my favorite scps, the way it was presented in the orignal file.

[judemanr]

Honestly the drawings of Jupiter and Io were breathtaking, you've improved alot ever since the first WDB.
(Random ideas for two WDB tales:(1)A tale about the eggs of SCP-1682(Either them hatching or it being the reason for WDB)
(2)A tale about a Janitor that works at site 19 and now has to deal with fuck all everything

[MorokLeviathan]

''Have you considered that 1/3rd of available power goes to running your own processes?''
''Yes. It does not surprise me that the first solution you have offered is to turn me off.''

Even though the Destroyer is a machine with AI, the humor is on point. It reminds me of the Mekhanites and Mekhane, too.

[BaronVonMott]

More WDB content is always a win! It's also nice that some of these entries end on positive notes - even in this darkest of timelines, not all hope is lost!

So (if I remember correctly) by this point we have 3 ongoing plans that could save this universe or at least this Earth:
1. Nuclear Winter - Plan Started (Can save Earth)
2. Yellowstone Reset Button - Plan Delayed by the Nukes (Can save Earth)
3. The Saviour - Plan Ongoing (Can save the Universe)


Edit: Thanks for cleaning up the confusion about Nr.2 lads. I confused it with 5000. Nonetheless adding all 3 together makes a hopeful image of the future.

If the Destroyer(Saviour) can fix the sun then by the end of the Nuclear winter the remnants of Humanity/Dr.Bright can activate the Yellowstone Reset and humanity will come back to rule the universe once more.

When the world needed him most, he wasn't there. :(

[MatijaCG]

Ironically the only thing that could save the world at that moment would be something similiar to the Operation Dark Storm from the Matrix. (Description in the replies)
