VISTORBELITUNG.COM,Among the various proposals submitted for SCP-001, one of the most well-known is "The Gate Guardian." This entity is a gigantic humanoid being, estimated to be around 700 feet (approximately 213 meters) tall.
According to the description, SCP-001 "The Gate Guardian" is located in a classified location near the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, a site of significant historical and religious importance. The being emanates a blinding light and has several pairs of wings emerging from its shoulders.
The primary role of this entity, as implied by its name, is that of a guardian. It stands at the gate to what is believed to be the Garden of Eden. It is said that anyone who attempts to approach or pass through the gate will be instantly annihilated by the heat or light radiating from the entity.
"The Gate Guardian" represents a very old and powerful concept: an unstoppable guardian watching over something sacred or forbidden. Within The SCP Foundation's lore, this entry is often interpreted as the first SCP to be discovered and deemed uncontainable, which led to the Foundation's creation to "secure, contain, and protect" other anomalous objects that could be handled. This entry highlights the religious and mythological themes that often appear in the SCP universe.
