VISTORBELITUNG.COM,JAKARTA – The clandestine world of the SCP Foundation a secret organization dedicated to securing, containing, and protecting anomalous entities has been rattled by the emergence of a creature known only as the "Julia Beast." While not officially cataloged with a typical SCP number on the main Foundation database, the entity has gained viral notoriety in the wider SCP-inspired community for its gargantuan size and speculated, terrifying powers, often being compared to colossal deep-sea anomalies like SCP-169 (The Leviathan) or SCP-3000 (Anantashesha).
The Julia Beast is an anomaly derived from a real-world, unidentifiable low-frequency sound recorded by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in 1999, much like the famous "Bloop" sound. Scientists and online lore creators have since taken this mysterious sound, which lasted for about 15 seconds, and extrapolated it into the existence of a monumental sea creature: the Julia Monster.
In fan-created lore and animations which is where the Julia Beast primarily exists it is consistently depicted as a massive, serpentine or cetacean entity residing in the deep, unexplored trenches of the world's oceans. Its sheer size is its most consistent and terrifying feature, often dwarfing even the largest known whales and challenging the scale of the colossal SCP-169.
Speculated Powers: What Makes Julia a Monster?
Given its basis in deep-sea sound recordings, the Julia Beast’s core abilities revolve around its immense physical presence and the acoustic power it can generate.
1. Gigantic Scale and Overwhelming Mass
The primary ability of the Julia Beast is its colossal size. Estimates in fan fiction place its length in the hundreds or even thousands of kilometers, making its movement alone capable of causing massive hydrodynamic disruption. This includes:
Tidal Waves and Seismic Activity: Its deep-ocean shifts are often depicted as generating tsunamis, powerful ocean currents, and even triggering minor undersea earthquakes.
Crushing Pressure Resistance: The Julia Beast is logically capable of withstanding the immense pressures of the deepest oceanic zones, implying a biological structure of unbelievable strength and resilience, effectively making it immune to conventional deep-sea weaponry.
2. The Acoustic Terror
The original "Julia" sound was an ultra-low-frequency sound. This translates into its most feared, speculated ability:
Infrasonic Attack: The creature is believed to emit infrasound sound frequencies too low for the human ear to detect at devastating volumes. Infrasound at high intensity can cause internal organ damage, extreme nausea, disorientation, and even intense feelings of dread and paranoia in humans, effectively crippling any naval or submersible vessels that approach its territory.
Sonar Evasion: Its unique frequency signature may also act as a form of acoustic camouflage, allowing it to hide its true mass from traditional sonar systems, contributing to its elusive nature.
3. Deep-Sea Apex Predator
While specific attacks vary, the beast is consistently portrayed as an apex predator in its environment, utilizing its immense mouth and powerful body to consume colossal prey. Its feeding habits are often depicted as causing dramatic, unexplained disappearances of deep-sea research vessels and submarines. The true extent of its biological requirements or if it needs to feed at all remains a terrifying mystery, fueling its fearsome reputation among the online anomaly enthusiasts.
Like SCP-169, the Julia Monster is considered "Uncontainable" due to its sheer scale. Any attempt by the Foundation to actively seek out or contain the entity would likely result in catastrophic damage to global shipping and coastal populations. For now, the Foundation's strategy as often portrayed in the community lis simply one of Vigilance and Misinformation, ensuring that the "Julia" sound is dismissed by the public as geological or technological in origin, thus protecting global sanity from the true horror lurking in the abyssal plains.
