Description: SCP-1230 is an unlabeled, green hardcover book with no apparent exceptional
qualities.
When SCP-1230 is opened, it displays the phrase "A hero is born" on the first page viewed,
SCP-1230
while all other pages will be blank, "resetting" once the book is closed.
This has no obvious effects at first, but upon falling asleep, the reader will dream
of a fantasy world where they are the protagonist of a troubled land.
Dreamers are completely aware and all senses work just as well as when awake.
Results vary depending on the imagination of the reader and are mostly attuned to fantasies
of adventure that the reader would enjoy.
In the mind of the reader, these dreams have been documented to last anywhere from 45 seconds
(see Experiment 1230-3) to 200 years (see Experiment 1230-5) but in reality, the reader
will usually never be asleep longer than they would normally.
Upon awaking, the reader is able to remember every aspect of their dream in detail.
In SCP-1230 induced dreams, there is always a character called the "Book Keeper" (SCP-1230-1)
appearing as a bearded man in a green cloak who claims to be the personification of SCP-1230
himself.
SCP-1230-1 has been reported to be very amicable and helpful towards dreamers.
It has stated that it enjoys creating these "fantasy-scapes" and always tries to shape
them in such a way that the dreamer garners the most entertainment out of it.
It has expressed sorrow when the dream comes to an end and asks the dreamer to "please
visit again soon".
Discovery: In a small bookstore located [DATA EXPUNGED] the shopkeeper had no recollection
of owning the unlabeled book but attempted to sell a story to local newspapers about
a "magical dream book".
The Foundation was able to dispel the story as a hoax and SCP-1230 was confiscated.
Experiment-1230-01: Dr. F███████, in an attempt to test its effective range,
opened SCP-1230 and boarded a flight to his hometown of [REDACTED] where he spent the
night at a hotel.
Upon his return, Dr. F███████ reported that SCP-1230-1 appeared in his dreams
and explained that once you read 'A hero is born', the dream is immediately implanted
in your subconscious, after which SCP-1230-1 is able to manipulate it remotely.
Dr. F███████ expressed his appreciation for SCP-1230-1's cooperation.
Experiment-1230-02: A camera was set-up above SCP-1230 and, using a mechanical "arm",
the book was opened.
All pages were revealed to be blank.
It seems SCP-1230 is only effective when opened by beings that are able to have dreams.
SCP-1230-1 explained to a subsequent dreamer that it is actually only able to affect beings
"with an imagination" and that most creatures such as animals would not be affected.
Experiment-1230-03: One (1) D-class was instructed to open the book and (after much reassurance
that his experiences would only be dreams) ordered to immediately find a way to kill
himself in the dream.
The subject was asleep for merely 45 seconds before he awoke with a start in a nervous
sweat.
He reported being at the summit of a volcano called "The Ashen Spire" on a quest for
"Caladius, the Blessed Blade".
When asked how the subject knew the names, he stated, "It's like I knew them all
along".
He apparently leapt into the volcano and "felt an intense heat" before awakening.
D-class requested permission to "give it another go".
Request was denied.
Experiment-1230-04: One (1) D-class was instructed to open the book and attempt to non-fatally
injure himself in his dream.
After 6 hours, the D-class awoke and reported that he was able to feel a "numbed" sort
of pain where it was never so intense as to be unbearable.
He also reported meeting an elderly, cloaked man who asked him why he was harming himself,
but thanked him for not immediately killing himself "like that other rude fellow".
Experiment-1230-05: Prof. B████ filed a request for access to SCP-1230 and was quickly
permitted, given his Level 4 clearance.
Staff members recalled that Prof. B████ was almost "visibly shaking with excitement"
and some reported that Prof. B████ was an avid fan of tabletop and role-playing
games.
Surveillance shows that Prof. B████ opened the book, read the phrase, sat down
beside the desk and promptly fell asleep.
Staff members were alarmed when Prof. B████ did not awake after 15 hours and alerted security.
The on-site medical staff were able to confirm that Prof. B████ was still alive and
in good health.
After approximately 24 hours since falling asleep, Prof. B████ began to move,
reported to have "slowly raised his head and looked around the room, appearing deeply confused".
Security entered the room to ensure he was alright, to which he replied, "Where am
I?".
He was sent to Medical where staff explained where and who he was.
Several minutes later, Prof. B████ appeared to have regained his memory and excused
himself to the restroom.
When 15 minutes passed and Prof. B████ had not exited, a nurse entered to find he
had hung himself with his belt.
A scribbled message on the wall revealed his last words: "I can't go back to this".
Dr. F███████ went to ask SCP-1230-1 what had happened, but upon opening SCP-1230,
all its pages were soaking wet with the same message on every page: "I'm so sorry.
I never intended for this to happen.
I just wanted to make people happy."
repeated over and over.
SCP-1230 remained in this state for three weeks and its desk had to be wiped dry biweekly.
In an attempt to communicate, Dr. F███████ placed a sticky note inside SCP-1230 with
the statement, "I'd like to talk to you, if that's alright".
The next morning, Dr. F███████ filed a report about a dream he had concerning
SCP-1230-1.
- Report-1230-14 Upon falling asleep last night, I dreamt I
was in a dark void.
There was a streetlamp and underneath it was SCP-1230-1 sitting in a puddle.
His cloak was visibly soaked and he was sobbing profusely.
I remember our conversation:
Dr. F███████: Book Keeper?
Is that you?
My god, man, where are we?
Book Keeper: (between sobs) I… couldn't think of anything to make for a landscape.
Dr. F███████: Book Keeper… what happened that day?
Why did Prof. B████ kill himself?
We have to know your side of the story.
Book Keeper: (wiping his eyes) He had such an active imagination!
I was able to create a vast and beautiful universe for him and it was obvious that he
had wanted a life like that for so long.
He conquered foul beasts and rescued princesses…
He built kingdoms and even raised a family… but he never wanted to leave.
He delved so far into his fantasy world that I soon realized he preferred his dream over
the real world.
I reminded him that this was all merely an illusion, but he wouldn't listen to me.
He stated that if he was ever forced to leave, he would immediately end his life.
I tried to keep him happy for as long as I could…
Dr. F███████: …Book Keeper… how long was the dream from his point of view?
Book Keeper: …200 years, Doctor.
I did my best but I could only hold onto him for 200 years.
As sweet as dreams may be, eventually we all have to wake up.
I awoke almost immediately after.
I can't believe he spent 200 years in his dream.
I'm astounded by his foolishness but it's such a shame to have lost a brilliant mind
to his own delusions.
Shortly after the report was filed, surveillance showed Dr. F███████ slipping
another small paper into SCP-1230.
A few days later, SCP-1230 began showing its usual "A hero is born" greeting once again.
When asked what the note said, Dr. F███████ declined to give detailed comment, simply
stating that he "just gave it some friendly advice".
Addendum-1230-A: During initial testing, SCP-1230-1 asked dreaming personnel if it could be relocated
to an area with many books (preferably fiction) so that it could think of even better ways
to construct its "fantasy-scapes".
After numerous experiments were performed to ensure that SCP-1230 posed no threat, the
request was accepted and SCP-1230 has been relocated to Site-12's library.
