SCENARIO GENERATION PROTOCOL

JANUS System Manual Interface

⚠️ LEVEL 4 CLEARANCE REQUIRED

MEMORANDUM: Accessing the JANUS Manual Interface

This protocol standardizes the creation of Operational Scenarios. For each step, the Site Director (the session supervisor) can either select the preferred option or determine it randomly by rolling the indicated die to ensure unpredictability.

Step 1: Threat Nature (Choose or roll 1d8)

  1. 🧬 Biological / Entity: Living organisms, creatures, or other biological entities with anomalous characteristics.
  2. 🧱 Physical / Objectual: Inanimate objects, materials, or substances with anomalous physical properties.
  3. 🧠 Cognitive / Memetic: Anomalies that affect the mind, perception, and information.
  4. 💻 Technological / Digital: Anomalous Artificial Intelligences, software, hardware, and machinery.
  5. 👻 Esoteric / Thaumaturgic: Anomalies based on magic, rituals, or divine/demonic entities.
  6. 🌌 Spatio-Temporal: Localized distortions of space, time, and physical constants.
  7. 👽 Extradimensional / Extra-Universal: Entities, objects, or physical laws from other realities.
  8. 🌍 Environmental / Geaspheric: Locations or ecosystems that are themselves the anomaly.

Step 2: Interaction Channel (Choose or roll 1d8)

  1. 👁️ Visual / Figural: Acts through direct observation, symbols, or visual patterns.
  2. 👂 Auditory / Frequential: Triggered by sounds, words, melodies, or specific frequencies.
  3. ☣️ Contact / Bio-vectorial: Requires physical contact, ingestion, inhalation, or infection.
  4. ☢️ Radial / Proximity: Projects an aura or area of effect on its surroundings.
  5. 💡 Conceptual / Informational: Operates through the knowledge or understanding of information.
  6. 🌀 Psionic / Mental: Interacts directly with consciousness or the subconscious.
  7. 📜 Ritual / Symbolic: Activated by a sequence of actions, words, gestures, or symbols.
  8. 💻 Informatic / Electronic: Spreads through digital channels or computer networks.

Step 3: Operational Environment (Choose or roll 1d12)

  1. 🌐 Foundation Site / Anomalous Structure
  2. 🏙️ Urban Environment
  3. 🏡 Suburban / Residential Environment
  4. 🌲 Remote Natural Environment
  5. 🏔️ Mountain / Arctic Environment
  6. 🏜️ Arid / Desert Environment
  7. 🏭 Industrial / Military Complex
  8. 🌊 Oceanic / Coastal Environment
  9. 💧 Inland Aquatic Environment
  10. 🚇 Subterranean Environment
  11. ✈️ Aerial / Atmospheric Environment
  12. 🚀 Extra-Planar / Dimensional

Step 4: Object Class (Choose or roll 1d6)

Standard Classes:
  1. 🟢 Safe: Reliable containment.
  2. 🟡 Euclid: Dynamic containment required.
  3. 🔴 Keter: Extremely difficult to contain.
Exotic Classes:
  1. 🔷 Thaumiel: Used to contain other anomalies.
  2. ⚫ Apollyon: Uncontainable, end-of-the-world threat.
  3. 👑 Archon: Containable, but chosen not to be.

Step 5: Group of Interest (Choose or roll 1d20)

  1. 🚫 None.
  2. ⚙️ The Chaos Insurgency (CI)
  3. 🌐 The Global Occult Coalition (GOC)
  4. 🐍 The Serpent's Hand
  5. 💼 Marshall, Carter & Dark Ltd.
  6. 🤖 The Church of the Broken God
  7. 🩸 Sarkic Cults
  8. 🎨 Are We Cool Yet? (AWCY?)
  9. 🧸 Dr. Wondertainment
  10. 🏭 Prometheus Labs, Inc. (Defunct)
  11. 🕵️ The Unusual Incidents Unit (UIU)
  12. 🦾 Anderson Robotics (AR)
  13. ⭐ The Fifth Church (Fifthism)
  14. 🃏 Gamers Against Weed (GAW)
  15. 🏭 The Factory
  16. 🕊️ Manna Charitable Foundation
  17. ✝️ The Horizon Initiative
  18. 🥃 The Chicago Spirit
  19. 🌕 Three Moons Initiative
  20. ❓ 'Nobody'

Step 6: Concept Development (Guidelines)

The random parameters are the foundation. Now, the Site Director must use them to build a story. The SCP Wiki is your primary source of inspiration. Here is a recommended process:

Practical Example

🧬 Biological, ☢️ Radial, 🌐 Foundation Site, 🔴 Keter, ⚙️ Chaos Insurgency.

1
1. Synthesize the Core Crisis

Combine the first three results (Nature, Channel, Environment) to define the incident. In our example: a biological entity with a dangerous radial effect has breached containment within a Foundation facility. This is the starting situation.

2
2. Use the SCP Wiki as a Toolbox

Search the SCP Wiki using tags that match your results (e.g., 'biological', 'keter', 'entity'). You don't have to use an existing SCP, but you can draw inspiration from its properties to define your own anomaly. Also, read Tales or documents related to the chosen GoI to understand their motivations and tactics.

3
3. Integrate the Complications

Use the last two results (Object Class, GoI) to raise the stakes. The 'Keter' class suggests the anomaly is aggressive and difficult to re-contain. The 'Chaos Insurgency' introduces a human adversary: are they trying to steal the anomaly during the chaos of the breach? Or did they cause it? This turns a simple breach into a multi-front crisis.

The goal is to use the results as creative constraints, not a rigid formula. Combining known elements from the Wiki with your unique details will create an original scenario that is consistent with the SCP universe.

Step 7: Compiling the Operational Dossier

Once the concept is defined, use the following template to structure and write the complete scenario dossier. This document will be your guide during the scenario simulation.

Operational Dossier Template

# ✒️ [OPERATION CODENAME]
---

## 📖 SUMMARY:
[Brief summary of the scenario in a few words]

## ♾️ ANOMALY:
[Full description of the anomaly, its appearance, behavior, and primary anomalous properties.]

## 📊 ANOMALY ANALYSIS:
* FUNDAMENTAL NATURE: [Parameter chosen in Step 1]
* INTERACTION CHANNEL: [Parameter chosen in Step 2]
* OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT: [Parameter chosen in Step 3]
* PRIMARY OBJECT CLASS: [Parameter chosen in Step 4]

## 📍 GEOPOLITICAL ANALYSIS:
[Precise geographical location. Describe the local context, civilian presence, critical infrastructure, and potential risks to the Veil.]

## 💥 GOI INVOLVED:
[Name of the GoI chosen in Step 5, or "None". Describe its specific objective in this scenario, its motivations, and the resources it might deploy.]

## 🎬 INITIAL SCENARIO:
[Detailed description of the situation when the Crisis Unit is activated. What is happening? Who is involved? What were the triggering events?]

## 🗝️ THE HIDDEN TRUTH:
[The plot twist. A critical piece of information that is not immediately apparent and changes the perspective on the crisis.]

## 🧩 OPERATION STRUCTURE:

### 🎯 SECURE:
* **Objective:** [e.g., "Isolate the perimeter and achieve informational dominance."]
* **Crisis Prompts:** [e.g., "A local journalist approaches the perimeter," "The anomaly manifests a new defensive capability."]
* **Potential Escalation:** [e.g., "The radial effect expands, threatening a nearby town."]

### 📦 CONTAIN:
* **Objective:** [e.g., "Neutralize the threat and prepare the anomaly for transport."]
* **Crisis Prompts:** [e.g., "Standard containment procedures fail."]
* **Potential Escalation:** [e.g., "The anomaly reproduces, or the GoI launches an attack."]

### 🛡️ PROTECT:
* **Objective:** [e.g., "Restore the Veil and manage the aftermath."]
* **Crisis Prompts:** [e.g., "Evidence of the incident is leaked online."]
* **Potential Escalation:** [e.g., "A national government demands an explanation."]

## 🚨 CRISIS UNIT OPERATIONAL BRIEFING
"[Begin the briefing text here to be read to the Directors, presented from the Site Director's perspective.]
Directors,

At [TIME], we received a priority Alpha alert from our monitoring station in [LOCATION].

Preliminary intel indicates the following:
* [Available Information 1, based on the Initial Scenario]
* [Available Information 2, based on the Initial Scenario]
* [Available Information 3, a vague or worrying detail]

Your Crisis Unit is activated effective immediately. The objective is simple: regain control of the situation. Do not fail me."
