Story
SCP-2317 is a colossal extradimensional entity confined within a parallel reality accessible through an ancient wooden doorway.
This doorway, designated SCP-2317-1, serves as a gateway to a barren dimension where the entity has remained imprisoned for an unknown period of time.
The primary entity, SCP-2317, is estimated to stand hundreds of meters tall.
Exploration teams have observed a gigantic humanoid creature partially buried beneath desert sands and restrained by immense chains and containment structures of unknown origin.
Foundation analysis suggests that the entity may be connected to numerous apocalyptic myths found throughout human history.
Several records indicate that it may have been responsible for the destruction of entire worlds or realities prior to its imprisonment.
Over time, the chains restraining SCP-2317 continue to deteriorate.
Numerous containment efforts have been implemented to delay its release, but a complete failure remains theoretically possible.
In many Foundation projections, the escape of SCP-2317 would trigger an extinction-level event on an unprecedented scale.
For this reason, the anomaly remains under constant observation and subject to exceptionally strict containment procedures.
SCP-2317 is regarded as one of the most severe existential threats ever documented by the SCP Foundation.
