If you heard of the term 05 Council, you probably are a fan of SCP Foundation just like me. The unique categories, forms, stories behind every SCP creature, thing, or whatever you may call them is something that a mind like mine would definitely love to indulge with. You see love to read a lot, though I don't consider myself as your typical bookworm, but my thirst for knowledge is very, very noticeable with the way I handle things and verbalize my thoughts. So I guess, this article would serve as a beginning of a fictional approach that I would soon formulate, that hopefully, everyone would enjoy reading more than I enjoy writing them. So let me start this "fictional" yet plausible world of the SCP foundation. And let's talk about;
The 05 Council.
Firstly, I heard that the 05 council has been around for a quite long time. But I've never heard of the things they do or how they do it, so that was dumb of me. But it plays a vital role in the foundation's life as well as my need to write about them. And that is when I feel compelled to create this long-winded description.
A full council meeting would basically mean having all 7 members present in order to discuss certain things, and most importantly the need of clearing out an SCP anchor from one of the foundations' SCP object classifications called "Safe". The council meeting itself would need to be attended by at least 5 members. The fifth member who's yet to be appointed is the special 6th member that would serve as a "delegate" and would sit in the meetings with the rest of the council. Shocking thought, I know. If you don't know what Safe class is, then it is just a form of an object that all Safe class SCP end up into through time eventually and one will only know this happened if he or she was there during the process. And now that a Safe has been brought by some other person who's still unknown to us, the council must discuss how to fix it.
Let us step back and think about the council members then.
The council is made up of 7 members, with each member being a level 4 security personnel (Higher than level 3) that has shown exceptional skill, there are two "members" who do not have them because they're special and would be appointed upon the death of any of the council members. And when that happens, you can bet your bottom dollar that the entire council will become a lot more interesting than before. There's also another interesting fact about this council is that they have rules too, which I think is kinda cool. There's only one thing though; none of them knows what goes inside that rulebook except for one person.
What makes them very important and powerful individuals? They are not just ordinary people, they are beings that reside on a higher realm of existence called The Transcosmos. It is a zone that is separated from our dimension and they can "move" between dimensions at will, allowing them to travel across the universe and meet new people; Those who are able to become members of this group. Then again there are different types of council members like:
"The 05 Council" (Referral based) – The one who understands the rules better than anybody else.
"The 10 Council" (Unknown) – It is the council that oversees all the SCP objects in existence and also oversees all other council members prevent them from taking over. (Theoretically, they exist so that 0-3 has someone to take care of them in case they do get taken over by 0-9.)
Those are just some of the different types of people who could be considered as members of the "05". The way I imagine their power is like this:
When an object becomes "infected" with a Safe it will automatically be added into its' class as a Safe. This means that it would be impossible to remove the Safe from it. However, there's a way in which this Safe could be "cleared out" and that is if 5 out of 7 members (If 5 members aren't able to be present, then 4 members are needed) of the Council will perform a ritual to fix the problem at hand.
"The 05 Council" being the best choice for this job makes sense why they are so special because they are the ones who know how to make the right decisions when it comes to these types of problems. But do I really believe all these "things" are real?
In this fictional world of mine, the answer is yes. So what are they really like? Here's a short description of them from my perspective:
The 05 Council:
D-4761-0 (Referral based): He is an old man, very polite and calm. He doesn't say much but is easily the most respected council member in the whole universe. If you're looking to talk to him about anything, don't expect him to respond or you'll be thrown out by his bodyguards without a second thought.
D-56489 (Unknown): One of the most powerful "members" and the one who runs all the council meetings. He's a mysterious man who has black, black eyes and is very old. His movements are very slow. He's extremely intelligent and knowledgeable about the council and also governs over all other members of this group. Also, he's a very dangerous man if you cross him, which I'm not sure that even the 05 Council can stop him from doing anything he wants.
"The Council" (Referral based) – The one who understands the rules better than anybody else. He is a man who is not yet 60 but has already reached the age of 100. He is relatively calm and usually doesn't say much although face to face with anyone, he won't hesitate to tell them how he feels.
D-47055 (Level 3): He's a level three-member who is one of the youngest in the group. His reason to be in the council was that he was innocent, but 56492 felt that his abilities could better be used somewhere else. He's very energetic, loves to fight, and has a lot of potentials. He is also the one who knows how to deal with situations involving those who are under the influence of the 05 Council.
D-54492 (Level 5): He is a very strong and powerful level five-member but always keeps his distance from other council members because of his past. He's also very intelligent but he is only 17 years old which means that he still has many years left before reaching retirement age. His level is one of the strongest on this entire planet, not even close to being second place. However, in terms of physical strength in this world, there's no one that can match him.
D-132447 (Level 6): He is a very patient man and once asked if there was something on his mind, you can bet that he'll tell you everything about himself. No matter what question is asked, he will always answer it correctly and without hesitation. He's also very intelligent: in his past world, he taught others how to count numbers up to 1 billion in two days before moving on to more difficult lessons such as multiplication. He's also the one who is a huge fan of some kinds of science fiction novels that are written by those who use this universe as their base of operations. His favorite novel is "The Great War" by 56489 but he has read the entire series about five times over. He has a great memory so he can remember a whole lot of things. He doesn't need to remember them but he still does it because he wants to. He also likes exercising the muscles in his arms and legs so that they feel more solid and less rubbery.
D-91230 (Level 5): He's an old lady who has lived a very long life but still is able to hang out with the teenagers like them. In her youth, she was an adventurer and she was really good at acting like a woman no matter what kind of situation she was in. She wants to go back to her adventuring days so she can be admired by young men like the teenagers can at the moment.
D-91231 (Level 5): A single, athletic man in his 30s who is good with computers. He still hangs out with a lot of different people and engages in difficult activities like mountain climbing and scuba diving to keep his body and mind healthy. He feels that staying active is a lot more fun than sitting around the house on vacation.
D-91232 (Level 5): An older man who is retired from work but still has a lot of energy left in him. He likes to spend his time outside with his dog and watching the same movie over and over again. He can still move very quickly, faster than a human should be able to.
D-37245 (Level 3): He's a single, muscular man in his early 20s. He's never married but he's very popular with women because of the way he looks. Some suspect that it has to do with the fact that he has a huge, warm heart that is willing to help anyone who needs it.
"The 10 Council" (Unknown) – It is the council that oversees all the SCP objects in existence and also oversees all other council members prevent them from taking over. (Theoretically, they exist so that 0-3 has someone to take care of them in case they do get taken over by 0-9.)
D-54662 (Chairman of The 10 Council): He's a level five-member who is the youngest on the council and the most trusted one. He also commands two bodyguards who are both level 4 security personnel(Higher than level 3):
D-54831 (Bodyguard 1): Like his master, he is young and very smart. Although he looks young, he has seen many things in his life as a bodyguard for 56492.
D-47461 (Level 3): She's not old but she also isn't young anymore. She's somewhere between 40-50 years old. She looks very elegant and is very beautiful, but she has a very strong heart. It is better to not cross her, because to describe her as "standoffish" would be an understatement.
D-54661 (Level 5): He is around the age of 30 but looks older than he really is. He's not so crazy about his hair so he always wears a hat to cover it up from the eyes of strangers who are going by. He likes to think that he has a lot of money in his bank account and lives off the interest because it makes him feel comfortable and warm inside knowing that he will never have to worry about money problems for many years to come. He's very smart and can even talk to animals. He can also do math problems in his head but still uses his calculator because he finds it more fun to do so, and because it helps him get rid of the stress that builds up from all the meetings that he has every day. Even though he looks like this, he isn’t a boring guy. He loves looking at animals whenever he's outside just to enjoy nature. Somehow, he just likes showing off how friendly he can be with everyone around him even if they don’t really care about what they're saying or doing.
