Physical Attributes

SCP-5167 is a humanoid entity measuring approximately 2 meters in height and weighing around 90 kilograms. It possesses a skeletal appearance with elongated limbs and sharp claws. Its skin is described as being pale and leathery, with various scars and markings covering its body. In contrast, SCP-966 is a species of creatures resembling hairless, eyeless, and digitigrade mammals. They are smaller in size, averaging around 1.2 meters in length and weighing about 30 kilograms. SCP-966's skin is smooth and rubbery, with a dark gray coloration.

Behavior

SCP-5167 is known to exhibit aggressive behavior towards any living beings it encounters. It will actively seek out and attack individuals within its vicinity, using its sharp claws to inflict harm. SCP-5167 has been observed to be highly territorial, defending its space from intruders at all costs. On the other hand, SCP-966 is a more elusive and stealthy predator. They are known to hunt in packs, using their ability to emit a low-frequency telepathic signal to disorient their prey. SCP-966 will then proceed to attack and feed on the incapacitated victim.

Abilities

SCP-5167 possesses enhanced strength and agility, allowing it to move quickly and overpower its targets. It also has the ability to regenerate any injuries it sustains, making it a formidable opponent in combat. Additionally, SCP-5167 has been observed to emit a low-frequency hum that can induce feelings of unease and paranoia in those nearby. In comparison, SCP-966's main ability lies in its telepathic signal, which can disrupt the sensory perception of its prey. This makes it difficult for victims to defend themselves or escape from the creatures.

Containment Procedures

Due to its aggressive nature, SCP-5167 is to be contained within a reinforced humanoid containment cell at all times. The cell is to be equipped with soundproofing materials to minimize the effects of its hum on personnel. SCP-5167 is to be provided with a steady supply of live animals for sustenance, as well as regular psychological evaluations to monitor its mental state. On the other hand, SCP-966 is to be contained in a standard containment chamber with reinforced walls to prevent escape. The chamber is to be monitored at all times for any signs of distress or agitation among the creatures. Personnel entering SCP-966's containment area are required to wear ear protection to shield themselves from its telepathic signal.

Research and Study

Research on SCP-5167 has focused on understanding its regenerative abilities and the effects of its hum on human subjects. Experimentation has been conducted to determine the range and intensity of the hum, as well as its potential long-term effects on mental health. Additionally, efforts have been made to study SCP-5167's behavior patterns and territorial instincts to develop effective containment strategies. In contrast, research on SCP-966 has centered around deciphering the nature of its telepathic signal and how it disrupts sensory perception. Studies have also been conducted to analyze the hunting tactics and social structure of SCP-966 packs to better understand their behavior.
