Introduction

In loving memory of Parallax Gaming

SCP-RP.

This Dungeons and Dragons module is dedicated to a truly special Garry's Mod server, where players from around the world shared their fondness of the SCP Universe. Unlike other servers of it's type, players immersed themselves in the SCP world, thanks to the dedicated staff of the server that acted more like Dungeon Masters than enforcers, crafting server events that spanned months, with interesting and intertwined storylines.

Parallax Gaming was born in the beginning of June 2020 during the midst of the COVID-19 outbreak, as an improved successor to a previous server which started all the way back in 2015 and lasted until 2019. This brought back several dozen to a hundred players who played the server in their youth and yearned to experience it again.

On October 10th, 2021, the Founders of Parallax announced the server's shutdown. This was caused by a multitude of reasons, such as the staff and developer team becoming burnt out, and the playerbase growing bored with the limitations Garry's Mod imposes on the gamemode. Offshoots and potential successors rose and fell, but for a lot people it was time to move on.

SCP: Anomalous Gateway was created with the intent to revitalize the memories once again and bring it's lore more in-line with the SCP wiki, rebirthing it once again in a roleplay game instead of attempting to force it into a game not meant for the medium. While it is impossible to convert every aspect of SCP-RP into Dungeons and Dragons, it is possible to convert the tense, high-energy moments that nearly every player lived for.

As a celebration of Parallax Gaming's existence - and the people who played on it - Most, if not all non-SCP characters in this book are based off of real characters that played on the server. High-Importance characters such as Area-36's Security Chief has a table that DMs can roll on to determine an alternate name for the character, representing yet another existing character that was made and played by a real person.

For those who are not familiar with the server and simply picked this campaign up because you are an SCP fan, do not be intimidated. Besides from names and anomalies (which are thoroughly explained to the Dungeon Master), someone greatly familiar with the SCP world should not feel alienated. The whole idea of SCP is based on collaborative fiction, and Parallax was just a small droplet in a big pond.

With how much effort, blood, sweat, and tears that was poured into Parallax, it feels like a disservice to let the built up lore, canon, and characters die...

"Honestly, Parallax made me realize a lot about how much you devote in time and effort to dealing with server and personal issues of multiple people in a community. It was tough, and many times I had to step in to fill voids in leadership or try and work out disputes/controversy. It was tough and towards its end very draining on a daily basis. Despite moving on though I miss it. It was the most fun I've had in years and has given me memories I will never forget. I just hope everyone else has equally moved on and are staying well." -Pownage

Using this Module

SCP: Anomalous Gateway is an unusual campaign premise for the average D&D player, merging the theme of medieval fantasy with modern science and technology. Instead of a rag-tag team of underdogs taking on an evil threat, players assume the role of highly-trained professionals in their respective fields, faced with unusual and otherworldly circumstances tasked with explaining the unexplainable.

This module is not a simple piece of an adventure designed for a certain character level. Instead, SCP: Anomalous Gateway prompts a unique premise that influences the campaign as a whole.

With this module, you can expect the following features:

• Characters originating from the modern era, discovering and exploring a world full of the unknown.
• Room for the Dungeon Master to introduce other modules, adventures, and settings.
• New Classes that can bring a character from Level 1 to 20. The campaign works best if characters start at level 1, 3, or 10.
• A massive base of operations for players that is on a different plane of existence than the rest of the adventure.
• Many new magical beings and objects that impact the world around it.

A new way to Play D&D

Characters that originate from the world(s) of SCP are inherently different than other characters that can be found in Dungeons and Dragons. They are familiar with modern concepts and technology, but are however not often exposed to pure magic, often showing fear or curiosity for the unknown.

Magic and spellcasters still exist in the SCP world, however they are either in deep hiding, or are contained by the Foundation. Players usually do not start out with anomalous or magical properties, but may however gain abilities throughout the campaign.

Combat utilizing modern weaponry focuses on high-damaging firearms. Most Two-Handed firearms have a feature that allow you to hit several spaces on the same turn, meaning that taking cover is a lot more important. There are other weapons than bullet-shooters, such as a wide array of grenade types, each mimicking an Area-of-Effect Spell. Melee combat is significantly weaker, but there are some melee-based anomalous weaponry that would surely turn the tide of combat - if you can close the gap first.

Gun Jamming

If a creature rolls a natural 1 on an attack roll when using a firearm, it jams and cannot fire. This does not use the creature's action however.. A creature may attempt to repair their firearm by hand (such as hitting the side of the firearm) with a successful DC 12 Dexterity Check. If the creature fails the check, any creature, including the user, may re-attempt the check. On a second failure, the firearm is damaged. Using a Technician's Toolbelt grants advantage on the check. The purpose of this optional rule is to impose a limit on high-damaging weapons, as well as to provide the Technician class with more utility on an active battlefield.

Medbay Rests

In campaign sessions that take place within only a few hours of in-game time (such as a crisis), proposing that the party sits down and takes a short rest would be silly. If this optional rule is used, player characters may regain uses of any features that require a short rest to replenish if said character visits a medbay and has their wounds treated. A character may have their wounds treated by a Medical Officer (Player or NPC) without the need of a medical check once per day, restoring their hit points.

Death's Door

The human body can only endure so much. When a creature regains hit points from healing after being at 0 hit points, the creature gains 1 level of exhaustion. Exhaustion can be removed with a successful DC 18 Medicine Check from someone proficient in Medicine, at a Medbay. It may also be removed if the creature finishes a long rest.

Kevlar Plate Durability

If a character suffers a hit that is 5 or more than their current AC, the kevlar plates they are currently wearing shatters, removing their bonus to AC. Kevlar plates also shatter if it is struck with a critical hit. Foundation Security have easy access to replacement plates, and aren't as valuable as, for example, metal plate armor. This optional rule is meant for games aiming to emphasize the "out of place, out of element" feel of the campaign.

Marked

• A creature or object can only be marked by certain machine or technical devices. Marked targets are imposed with different effects based on the source of the mark.

The SCP Foundation

The SCP Foundation's primary goal is to protect humanity by keeping them safe from anomalous phenomena. The secret that protects the normalcy of humanity is called "the Veil". The SCP Foundation as an organization is of Lawful alignment, and tend to only employ professionals that can pride themselves as a cut above the rest. Any alignment may find themselves in an SCP facility, although strict sets of rules are heavily enforced - to maintain normalcy and to minimize the risk of disaster. If a Foundation employee performs an act considered unethical without a fair reason (such as not adhering to Special Containment Procedures), said employee will most likely be punished.

Foundation Classes start out weak, but grow in power into a well-rounded force as the characters level up. Some classes are considered non-combatants at the start, which means that they will have to approach combat differently with roleplay than simply head-on. For example, a Foundation Researcher lacks the raw power to effectively fight a creature head-on. However, if they utilize tools to survey the room and creatures for potential advantages, they may sway the fight heavily in their favor, or find ways to end it before it begins.

The Chaos Insurgency

The Chaos Insurgency's primary goal is to capture and utilize anomalous material for their own power and profit. The CI benefit from the Veil as well, as it allows them to inherently have more power than normal governments. They use this leverage to take advantage of third-world countries, acquiring a constant stream of conscripts with the promise of very hefty salaries. The Chaos Insurgency as an organization is of Chaotic Evil alignment. However, the CI is still a military organization, and have sets of rules to enforce loyalty and effectiveness. Those who want to fight for their own profit generally join the CI's ranks instead of other organizations behind the veil, and are usually of chaotic alignment themselves, usually evil. There are some good apples, but they tend to not get many promotions. Generally, having unethical means is acceptable within the CI as long as it gets results.

Chaos Insurgency Classes, much like their organization as a whole, echo their Foundation counterparts, with the trade-off of less well-rounded versatility and more formidable firepower. This comes with the additional drawback of having a single, glaring flaw that does not go away with experience, requiring CI strike teams to be even more organized. For example, a CI Heavy has a light machine gun that does above average damage, but their gear makes them the slowest member of the group. However, a Bomb Specialist can corral enemies into the Heavy's line of fire with the threat of explosives. If all members of a strike team successfully coordinate and cover their weaknesses, they will be unstoppable.

The Foundation

Deep within Death Valley, Nevada is Area-36, a keter containment and research facility tasked with holding a wide range of anomalies, spanning from mundane humanoids to creatures capable of mass death and destruction.

The SCP Foundation's goal is simple on paper, but in this world, nothing is simple. Their mission is to protect humanity from the anomalous phenomena of the world and preserve the sense of normalcy. As of now, the general populace believes that the likes of magic and other ways of defying science is just fiction.

There are more steps than that however; locking something that doesn't make sense away and throw the key is not the Foundation's goal. Rather, it is to study the anomalous, and to make sense of a nonsensical world.

Facility Rules and Guidelines

Foundation Personnel are expected to follow these guidelines at all times. This is not an exhaustive list, but rather the absolute basics.

• Maintain professionalism at all times.
• Do not perform actions that hinder Area-36's functions, such as attacking other Personnel, sabotage, or conspiracy.
• Do not conspire or work with SCPs to breach containment. Follow all Special Containment Procedures at all times.
• Class-D personnel should not be treated unfairly, as uncooperation wastes time at best, and complicates matters at worst. However, they did sign their life away, and are never in a position to negotiate with Foundation Staff. If a Class-D attacks Foundation Staff or refuses to cooperate, termination is authorized.
• Foundation Personnel are not permitted to exit the Facility through Gates A or B unless authorized to.

Terms to Know

• Safe, Euclid, Keter are object classes assigned to SCPs. Contrary to their names, they do NOT summarize the threat of an object, but instead summarizes how easy it is to contain. Safe is the easiest, Keter is the hardest. If an object has sentient, it is usually unable to be Safe.
• Memetic effects are phenomena that affects a persons mental or physical state when recognized by the brain.
• Cognitohazards is a phenomena that poses danger when a person perceives it with one of the five senses.
• Infohazards is a phenomena that triggers when it is directly described.
• Amnestics are drugs that wipe a person's memory for a certain amount of time.

Facility Codes

Facility Codes indicate the current state that Area-36 is in, and dictates Foundation activity and response.

Code Green: No unusual activity or threat is reported within Area-36, and normal facility activities may occur.

Code Yellow: Minor containment breach reported. Research testing may continue unless the situation worsens or deemed too dangerous by Level-3.

Code Red: Major containment breach reported. Research testing is to be immediately halted and non-combat personnel are to be escorted to designated safe areas.

Code Black: Area-36 is deemed compromised. SID and MTF Eta-18 have one last chance to regain control of the facility, or else the on-area Nuclear Warhead will be detonated to prevent a mass containment failure.

Code Orange: An outside, hostile force has been spotted near or inside Area-36. Non-combat personnel are to be escorted to designated safe areas.

Foundation Staff

Area-36 requires many jobs around the facility to be filled, and only accept those who are the top of their field, and will not settle for any less. The world depends on each personnel's competency.

General Security, also known as GenSec, are the primary security force of the Foundation. Their job is to assist Research with testing efforts, while also dealing with the needs of low-threat anomalies. In times of crisis, their primary objective is to protect Light Containment Zone and the non-combat personnel within. Field Medics are considered part of General Security, and perform normal Security activities when their expertise is not required.

Research consists of a large team of specialists prepared for any type of task, from microbiology to nuclear radiation. Foundation Researchers are usually required to have a Master's Degree if they wish to qualify for the SCP Foundation, but exceptions may occur should a candidate be exceptionally good at their work. Their main goal is to regularly schedule and perform tests on the various anomalies on area. SCPs come and go, they are transferred to Area-36 for study, and then sent away once there is no more opportunity for research. This does not apply to dangerous SCPs kept at Area-36 for containment purposes.

Special Incident Division, also known as SID, is a sub-division of GenSec that is responsible for maintaining (and recontaining) anomalies located in Heavy Containment Zone and Lower Heavy Containment Zone. Their armor is thicker and their guns hit harder, and unfortunately, they tend to die more often due to the SCPs they are forced to interact with. SID Agents are the first line of defense against a dangerous SCP Breach.

Clearance Levels

Clearance Levels indicate how much classified information that designated personnel are generally authorized to know, as well as being able to vaguely determine the chain of command. However, there are many exceptions regarding who is authorized to order around who.

For example, A Senior Security Officer and a SID Specialist are both level-3 personnel, however, SID has a degree of authority above GenSec when dealing with a containment Breach. In another example, a Security Sergeant is also Level 3, however, they have a unique addendum that places them above both.

Level-1 (Classified) personnel are generally new employees who aren't cleared to directly interact with anomalous entities.

Level-2 (Restricted) personnel are required to interact with anomalous entities, which necessitates information of said anomalous on a need-to-know basis.

Level-3 (Secret) personnel are trusted with in-depth data and other information, and are cleared to enter Heavy Containment Zone unsupervised.

Level-4 (Top Secret) personnel consist of high SOC and Management staff, requiring access to area-wide intelligence. Level-4 clearance grants access to the entire facility regardless of situation.

Level-5 (█████) is a clearance given to the Area Director in his or her respective area. Their Clearance is Level 4 elsewhere.

/MED clearance grants access to Medbay storage areas, containing potentially addictive and harmful drugs.

/SID clearance grants access to most SCP containment cells in Heavy and Lower Heavy Containment Zone.

/TECH clearance grants access to places like the Electrical Room and maintenance tunnels

/PRO clearance grants access to the entire facility when Management authorizes an investigation. When inactive, the clearance acts similarly to SOC clearance.

/SOC clearance grants access to the entire facility and containment cells, save for Level-4 Areas.

/MTF clearance acts as a security override, granting access to the entire facility regardless of situation.

Entrance Zone

Entrance Zone (EZ) is the first underground section of the facility, housing logistics and utilities for staff and the facility as a whole. Entrance Zone is Level-1 Access, permitting any and all foundation staff entry.

Points of Interest:

• Gate A - Surface Gate, Level-4 Clearance
• Gate B - The Tram, Level-1 Clearance
• Gate C - Logistics Tunnel, Level-4 Clearance
• Engineering Bay - Houses functions such as facility power
• Cafeteria, Management Offices, other staff utilities
• Provost Headquarters - Contains interrogation rooms, information databases, and an armory.
• Security Checkpoint to Light Containment Zone

Light containment Zone (Level 2 Clearance)

Light Containment Zone (LCZ) is the second and primary zone in the facility. A majority of area personnel are stationed here, requiring Level-2 access to wander unsupervised. LCZ houses many safe-class SCPs, with some euclids deemed as a low threat.

Points of Interest:

• Research Rooms - For the common and standard scientific practices, anything a researcher would need day-by-day.
• Containment and Test Chambers
• D-Block - The prison block for Class-D personnel.
• GenSec HQ - Contains the Surveillance room and Armory.
• Medbay - The medical facility within Area-36, stocked with it's own pharmacy.
• Elevator - A lift with a 100 ft. radius that links the facility's floors together. Connected is a staircase, small enough to deny passage to any anomaly larger than a human in the event of a power outage.

Heavy Containment Zone (Level 3 Clearance)

Heavy Containment Zone (HCZ) is the third zone in the facility, housing a majority of the dangerous euclid and keter SCPs kept on-area. Personnel underneath Level-3 clearance are required to be escorted by SID specialists. HCZ is divided into two sectors, each sealed behind a blast door.

Points of Interest:

• Sector A and Sector B - Used to seperate SCPs that don't play well together. (or play TOO well together.)
• SID Headquarters - Divides the two sectors. Contains an armory, surveillance room, and the bunks.

Lower Heavy Containment Zone (Level 4/SID Clearance)

Lower Heavy Containment Zone (LHCZ) is the fourth and deepest zone in the facility, housing the most hazardous euclid and keter SCPs. Only Level-4 non-SID personnel may be in this zone without an escort. Like HCZ, LHCZ is divided into two sectors sealed via blast door.

• Psionic Wing - Contains SCPs that pose mental hazards.
• Biohazard Wing - Contains SCPs that pose biological hazards.

The Tram

The underground Tram is the primary method of entering and exiting the facility when a staff's shift is over, moving in between the Apartments and Area-36, taking about 25 minutes to travel. The Tram can be called to either location with Level-3 clearance, unless it is currently in motion.

The Apartments

The Apartments is a surface complex under the guise of a US military air base in Nevada, about 20 miles away from Area-36 connected via underground Tram. As well as apartments for personnel, the complex houses recreational buildings, a hospital, shopping centers with the usual brands, and a monitored wi-fi connection. Cell data for phones is still restricted.

Maintenance Tunnels

The maintenance tunnels run underneath LCZ and HCZ, and serve a variety of purposes, such as monitoring structural integrity, sewage and liquid transfer systems, and access to Back-Up Power.

SID Bunks

SID Bunks is a sub-section of the facility on the same level of LHCZ, however seperated. SID Bunks is similar to the living quarters of an American military base.

Death Valley (Surface)

Death Valley is located in Nevada, USA, and is known for being one of the hottest places on Earth during Summer. Death Valley is surrounded by several mountain ranges, meaning that hot air is trapped inside and has little rainfall. The Forward Operations Base (FOB) of Mobile Task Force Eta-18 ("Roadrunners") can be found here, however the exact location is classified to Area-36 staff.

Promotions

Your character has the capability to be promoted to a new rank through roleplay. While this is generally tied to how experienced your character is, it is seperate from your character's class levels. Usually, Being Underneath 3rd level are usually level-2 personnel. Level-3 personnel are usually between third level and and ninth level, while MTF agents (10th level and beyond) are considered Level-4 personnel.

Mobile Task Force Eta-18

All Foundation classes have a unique feature at 10th level which promotes them to a mobile task force agent. This promotion grants unique features depending on the class.

Creating a Security Officer

As you build your Officer, keep in mind the unifying trait of any good security personnel; You're putting your life in harms way so that others don't have to. The reasons for such humble service is countless: To protect your friends and family and make sure that they don't get hurt by these freaks behind the veil, to fulfill a sense of nobility, or simply because the Foundation pays really, really well. Once you consider why your character is in this line of work, consider their background. Most security are employed because of their history in military or law enforcement, but exceptions may be made.

Class Features

As a Security Officer, you gain the following class features.

Planted Foot

If you don't move on your turn, you can focus on your aim and add +2 to any attack roll with a firearm.

Close-Quarters Combatant

If a creature is within 5 ft. of you, you may use a bonus action to push them back 5 ft. with your firearm. To do so, you must succeed a Strength Check contested by the creature's strength.

Bullseye

If you are wielding a Pistol and no other weapons, you gain a +3 bonus to attack rolls with that weapon.

Run-N-Gun

When you take the dash action on your turn, you may make an attack roll with a firearm with a -5 penalty to the roll.

Leadership

For 1 minute, you utter special commands or warnings whenever a non-hostile creature that you can see within 30 feet of you makes an attack roll or a saving throw. The creature can add a d4 to its roll provided it can hear and understand you. A creature can benefit from only one Leadership die at a time. This effect ends if you are incapacitated. How many times you can use this feature depends on your Security Officer Level. You replenish your uses when you finish a short rest.

Tenacity

At 6th level, your motivations push your body to it's limits. As a bonus action, you may ignore pain and regain hit points equal to 1d10 + 5. You may use this feature once before requiring a short rest. You also gain advantage on Wisdom saving throws against being frightened.

Inspire

At 11th level, you can motivate those around you to stay standing. Your leadership die increases to a d6 instead of a d4. As an action, you may attempt to motivate a downed ally who is currently rolling death saving throws. The creature may then roll a death save as a reaction, and ignore the roll on a failure.

Contagious Will

At 15th level, your willpower rubs off on those you command when it's needed most. When you can see an ally currently rolling Death Saving throws, they only require two successes to stabilize rather than three.

20th Level Feature

SID Assignment

Promotion within the Special Incident Division has unlocked more tools for you and your squad. You gain proficiency in heavy armor and get heavy kevlar plates in supply shipments if using the Kevlar Plate Durability rule. Your logistics requests for heavy, non-standard weaponry are more likely to be accepted as well.

Military Police

Investigations and interrogations are all part of the job. At level 3, you gain proficiency with Investigation and Insight checks.

Quick Thinking

At 3rd level, you can block out stimuli that's not important and focus on what is. On your turn, you may make a Perception check as a bonus action. Alternatively, you may also extend the check to an action and add a d6 to the roll. The amount of times you can use this feature depends on your Security Officer level.

Informed Attack

At 6th level, you have incorporated your inquisitive nature into your combat toolset. Running into a fight guns blazing is just going to get you killed; taking it slow and finding an exploit is safer, and more effective. On your turn, you may use an action to make an Investigation Check against a creature with the DC being half the creature's Challenge Rating + 10. On a success, you spot a weak point. For the rest of the encounter, the creature's AC is reduced by 1d6 when attacked by you.

People Person

Working with people as a career has allowed you to de-escalate situations and get information that you want using your words rather than actions. At 11th level, You gain expertise in the Persuasion skill against creatures not hostile to you. Expertise doubles your proficiency modifier for the skill you are an expert in.

Critical Review

You are able to identity quirks within an object's structure, and determine the purpose of your findings. You may spend 1 minute analyzing an object or creature to discover one of the following traits of your choice. If you have a photograph or realistic illustration of the object or creature, you may use your feature on said object instead.

• A damage resistance or immunity
• Armor class
• General purpose
• Structural weak-point
• Potential hazard and associated saving throw DC

This list is not finite; What is and isn't a valid specified trait and the difficulty of the associated Investigation Check DC is up to the Dungeon master.

Keeping a Compendium

Researchers gain benefits when interacting with creatures they have already analyzed. When playing as a researcher, it is recommended to keep a list of species that you have used your Critical Review feature on and a list of your findings for each one.

Beginner Spellcaster

Not only are you just beginning your journey into the art of magic, the concept itself is completely foreign to you. You cannot use any cantrips that deal damage until level 6.

Beast Study

Your curiosity of the unknown drives you forward, and the payoff fills you with confidence. When you have used your critical review feature on 10 different species of creature with the beast type, you gain inspiration. You can use this feature an indefinite amount of times.

Fauna Specialty

At Level 4, your specialization in living objects allow you to easily identify patterns in nature. When investigating a noise, footprint, detached body part, or similar phenomenon left by a creature you have studied, the DC for the check is lowered by 5 for you.

Confident Handling

At level 7, your familiarity with the beasts you research translate into confidence when handling them. You gain proficiency with animal handling if you are not already proficient. When using the check against a creature you have studied, you double your proficiency bonus as if you had expertise in the skill. The creature must be of the beast type.

Lv 1

Lv 4

Lv 7

Weaponization Initiate

Whether it be your assignment or your own intrigue, you seek to weaponize artificing into modern military applications. To use this ability, you must have Research Tools on hand.

Over the course of a long rest, you may imbue a pistol or semi-automatic weapon with the properties of a spellcasting focus, which you require as a material component. Once complete, you may choose one of your cantrips to imbue within the firearm. Bullets fired are considered magical, and will have the cantrip's effects applied to any creature it hits. Damage that would normally done by the cantrip is ignored, unless it requires a creature to fail a saving throw or fulfill some other requirement.

Imbued firearms have an amount of charges equal to how much gp the spellcasting focus used in the imbuement process costed. At 0 charges, the firearm and and fired bullets lose their magical properties.

Industrialist

At 4th level, you've learned to design electrical batteries from scratch using materials on the field. During a short rest, you may spend 5 gp worth of copper and metal each to produce up to three batteries, and requires a Technician's Toolbelt to craft.

These batteries can be imbued with an electrical spell or source that deals lightning damage. Any spellcaster can cast electricity into a battery, using a cantrip that deals lightning damage. Batteries have a lifespawn of one hour of use before requiring more electricity.

Makeshift Bullets

You can replicate firearm ammunitions out in the field, albeit to a lesser quality to factory standard. As part of a short rest, you can produce a certain amount of bullets depending on the caliber, as long as you have access to Smith's Tools and 5 gp worth of metal and gunpowder. These Makeshift Bullets are crudely made, and impose a -2 on attack and damage rolls made with them.

Arcanic Weaponsmith

At level 7, your ability to merge modern mechanisms with magic has further increased. By using a short rest, you may perform the following activities:

• Imbue any firearm with cantrips as described in "Weaponization Initiate", no longer limited to pistols and semi-auto weapons.
• Craft a magic grenade shell (50 gp worth of powdered diamond + 1 gp worth of iron) and imbue it with a spell that has an area-of-effect, using it's material components in the crafting process. The spell's radius must be spherical. If the radius of the spell is over 30 ft, it is set to that radius.

Hit Points

• Hit Dice: 1d8 per Security Officer level
• Hit Points at 1st Level: 8 + your Constitution modifier
• Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d8 (or 5) + your Constitution modifier per Medical Officer level after 1st.

Gunplay Style

You adopt a certain strategy when in combat situations, usually dictated by a mixture of your background and personality. Choose one of the following options. You can’t take a Gunplay Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.

Modern Medic

You have undergone extensive training for treating wounds during stressful situations. When you heal a creature with a Tactical Healer's Kit, they regain an amount of hit points determined by your Medical Officer level. You are also proficient in the Medicine skill.

Eye for Injury

At 2nd level, you are able to quickly determine who is the most injured, whether it be to help or to hurt. As a bonus action, you may determine the creature with the least amount of hit points out of all creatures that you can see. You may use this feature as many times equal to your proficiency bonus before a long rest.

Security Specialization

At 3rd level, your workplace obligations are changed to better match your specialty. Your options - MRU and Trauma Surgeon - are detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 3rd level and again at 6th and 9th level.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th and 8th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Using the optional feats rule, you can forgo taking this feature to take a feat of your choice instead.

Guardian Angel

Your surgical precision flourishes when it's needed most. If a creature within 10 ft. of you is injured, you may use a reaction to move 5 ft. towards the creature and use a Tactical Healer's Kit on them. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short rest.

Pharmacy

When working on an operating table or the middle of a gunfight, you keep calm and make sure medicine is properly applied. As an action, you can apply a booster to a willing creature when they are in combat or otherwise occupied.

Emergency Response

• (a) a Super-90 with 8 shells or (b) a Colt 1911 with 2 magazines of 8 rounds each.
• A Crowbar and a Technician's Toolbelt
• A Foundation Radio and Level-3 Keycard

Doctorate of Engineering

The amount of time and effort required to earn such a title can rival that of an average researcher, but that tends to not be mentioned too often. You have advantage to any checks made to repair mechanisms and electrical contraptions. You also apply your proficiency bonus to rolls made to discern the purpose of a machine or mechanism.

Factory Hand

You work quickly and efficiently. You may perform the following actions as bonus actions on your turn, so long as you are not suffering from exhaustion. The amount of times you can use this feature depends on your Engineer level.

• Catch, pick up, or equip an item. This excludes grenades or other physically hazardous material
• Repair a jammed firearm
• Reload a weapon with the Long Reload property

Swift Welding

You know off the top of your head the least amount of time needed to melt metal with a welding torch. Because of this, you can use a welding torch quicker and more efficiently than most. As an action, you can perform the following actions:

• Weld a door or similar object to it's doorway, or cut a stuck door open
• Cut apart pieces of metal or wood
• Weld two pieces of metal or wood together
• Deal 1d6 fire damage

When working with wood, roll a d20. On a 8 or below, the wood catches on fire, which spreads to the rest of the object in one round unless extinguished.

Engineering Specialization

At 3rd level, you begin working on specialized jobs unique to your background. Your options - Architect and Mechanic - are detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 3rd, 6th, and 9th level.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th and 8th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Using the optional feats rule, you can forgo taking this feature to take a feat of your choice instead.

Structural Reinforcement

When you deploy an FFF (Foldable Field Fortification), you may choose to reinforce it, requiring a welding torch, Technician's Tools, and 10g worth of metal to do so. A reinforced fortification has the following modifications:

• It's AC is increased by 2.
• Attacks that apply slashing or bludgeoning damage have disadvantage on the attack roll against it.
• It loses the ability to be folded back up, making it permanently in it's deployed state until destroyed.

If you have Smith's Tools, you may also use them to repair structural damage or reinforce a non-metal structure. You require the aforementioned tools and must succeed a Dexterity check to do so. The DC required varies based on the material you wish to reinforce with. If a material (or similar material) is not listed here, it is not suitable for re-inforcement on the field.

Makeshift Bullets

The casing of a bullet and the gunpowder inside can be replicated out in the field, albeit to a lesser quality than factory standard. As part of a long rest, you can produce a certain amount of bullets depending on the caliber, as long as you have access to Smith's Tools and 5 gp worth of metal and gunpowder. These Makeshift Bullets are crudely made, and impose a -2 on damage rolls used with them.

The amount of bullets you can make during a long rest depends on the caliber you choose. You cannot manufacture heavy caliber rounds.

Drone Specialist

Your specialization is the operation of combat-capable drones. At 3rd level, you start with a state-of-the-art Assault Drone, a 5 ft. long flying drone mounted with twin machine guns. It's battery lasts for six hours, but regenerates energy from solar rays or specialized charging bays found in your faction's home base.

Equipment

You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background.

• A Metal Shiv
• A Class-D dossier

Class-D Designation

The Foundation is slow to trust such a dangerous asset. You have disadvantage on charisma checks against Foundation personnel, and advantage on charisma checks against Chaos Insurgents.

Dead Man Walking

You have been given a second chance at life by the SCP Foundation, and having nothing else to lose makes you a dangerous threat. When you endure a critical hit, roll a d20. On a 11 or higher, you take damage as if it was a normal hit.

Defiant of Odds

At 2nd level, you are able to escape danger that would normally ensure death. When you fail a saving throw that would result in you dropping to 0 HP or dying, you are able to re-roll and must take the new result.

Death Row Archetype

At 3rd level, the skillset that you have picked up prior to your imprisonment begin to flourish. Your options - Bruiser and Strategist - are detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 3rd, 6th, and 9th level.

Extra Attack

Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Fighting Dirty

At 7th level, you gain the ability to counterattack those that attempt to take advantage of you. If a creature within your melee attack range forces you to make a saving throw, you can use your reaction to make one weapon attack against it. You make the attack immediately before making the saving throw. If your attack hits, your saving throw automatically succeeds, in addition to the attack's normal effects.

If you have a ranged weapon, you may use this feature with a range of the weapon instead. When you do so, you require a short or long rest before using this feature at range again.

Momentum

Your adrenaline levels spike higher and higher as you build momentum in combat. If you successfully hit a creature on your turn with a melee weapon, You start a momentum chain. For every subsequent attack, you add +2 to your attack rolls up to a maximum of +10. If you fail to successfully hit a creature on a turn, your momentum chain ends and you lose the momentum bonus.

When you gain a momentum bonus of +10, your next attack is a critical hit, assuming that you keep your momentum bonus. When you hit an enemy with the critical hit, your momentum chain ends.
