Secure

The Foundation secures anomalies with the goal of preventing them from falling into the hands of civilian or rival agencies, through extensive observation and surveillance and by acting to intercept such anomalies at the earliest opportunity.

Contain

The Foundation contains anomalies with the goal of preventing their influence or effects from spreading, by either relocating, concealing, or dismantling such anomalies or by suppressing or preventing public dissemination of knowledge thereof.

Protect

The Foundation protects humanity from the effects of such anomalies as well as the anomalies themselves until such time that they are either fully understood or new theories of science can be devised based on their properties and behavior. The Foundation may also neutralize or destroy anomalies as an option of last resort, if they are determined to be too dangerous to be contained.

As it goes it SCPs there is 1 one cannon and there’s a million different answers to this question but what I notice a majority of the time (not forgetting you 13 ) are anomalies. Who are in charge… of containing other anomalies.

My question is which do you think is the best fit for the O-5 a bunch of anomalies who contain other anomalies, a group of your standard secret “men in black” types, normal humans just doing their best?, or maybe something made up by the people who really run the foundation?

Please let me know what you think is the truth? (Or your favorite)

There have been so many versions of the O-5 council, every time I just assume anything is possible and just roll with it. It’s SCP-001 all over again and they are all “viable” in their own right. It’s less about what is written but how good it is written.

With that said, in my head the “real” O-5 consists entirely of mundane humans with vastly varying morals. But the administrator either being an anomaly himself or at least fucked with some high tier SCP at some point.
