Absolute Johannes factotum
- SCP-8003 (?)
- SCP-8003 is a seemingly ordinary steel sword that mysteriously changes its appearance and style, transforming into various types of blades like longswords, shamshirs, or rapiers at random times. Its only other known unusual property is that when two people touch it at the same time, a small burst of electromagnetic energy is released from its tip, which can disrupt nearby small electronics but isn't harmful. The article also contains a narrative about two researchers, Dr. Rights and Dr. Gears, who are struggling with their relationship, and their interaction with the sword seems to trigger visions or experiences that mirror their emotional struggles across different historical and mythical settings, ultimately leading to a breakthrough in their communication.
- Knights of the Golden Circle (?)
- The Knights of the Golden Circle (KGC) was a secret society founded in 1854 by George W. L. Bickley with the initial goal of expanding the United States into Latin America to create new slave states and ensure the continuation of slavery. This "golden circle" was envisioned as a vast territory, centered on Havana, suitable for plantation agriculture, encompassing the Southern U.S., Mexico, Central America, and Caribbean islands. As anti-slavery sentiment grew, the KGC's objective shifted to advocating for the secession of the Southern states to form their own confederation, which would then annex these Latin American territories. During the American Civil War, some Northern sympathizers joined the KGC, which was reorganized under different names like the Order of American Knights and the Order of the Sons of Liberty, often engaging in anti-Union activities. The KGC is also noted as a "model" for the Ku Klux Klan and has been linked to various conspiracy theories, including a plot to replace Lincoln and the caching of gold to finance a second Civil War.
