Test 674-2-3(Level 4 Clearance Approved)

Subject Matter: Historical Documentary of Japan, Warring State Era(circa 1467-1615)

Target: Nobunaga Oda

Results: The D-Class, a middle aged male of African descent, is told to shoot Oda during the first scene he appears in. This later forces the researcher to identify the target for the subject several times, due both to the subject's lack of knowledge of Japanese history, as well as the nature of the Documentary.

Regardless, after rewinding to the start, subject proceeds to take aim, and fires. Noted during this section is that this documentary contains both artistic renditions, as well as recreations of scenes from the life of the subject.

At the moment the trigger is pulled plus the length of time it would take a projectile to cover the ground from the subject's seated point and the screen, the subject changes. Within the test's recording, this alteration is seen as instantaneous, as even going to a slow speed of 2.68 nanoseconds frame by frame playback simply shows the subject changing.

When it is done, the male has not only become female, but also changed from African to Asiatic descent. The subject, at first, does not appear to notice the change, but after approximately one and a half minutes, they lift their arm, and immediately enter an agitated state, beginning to speak in a dialect that is distinct from Edo Era Japanese. Linguistics believes it to be a divergent evolution of the language used today.

Regardless, the subject appeared to remember themself as their original form, and their agitated state sees them attack the television, and then attempt to damage the SCP used for the test. They are terminated, and upon examination and autopsy, there seems to be no deleterious effects due to the change.

It is still unknown how the item effected this sort of alteration within the subject, given the documentary was not a 'true to life' version of events, with multiple inconsistencies within its presentation. It is, by Ethics Committee's unanimous approval, that all future tests only use fictional narratives, or current day politics.

Further Note: Given how SCP 674 was acquired, it is interesting that Mr. S███████ had no biological effects from the various SCPs that had been released in his altered view of the world via use of the object on live broadcasts. His own interrogation reveals that, at the very least, SCP ███ as well as SCP ████ were both active, and should have rendered his section of the Earth uninhabitable.
