Item #: SCP-CN-3040
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-CN-3040 is contained in its designated standard containment locker. This locker is to only be opened during O5 Council meetings. No further containment procedures are necessary.
Description: SCP-CN-3040 is a hand-woven loop of red cord, primarily composed of cotton with minor stains. Threaded onto the cord is a non-anomalous piece of paper card, which is inscribed with the text "███████ is always with you" on its front, and "c/o █████ ██████".
Wearing SCP-CN-3040 will noticeably reduce the chance of random occurrences resulting in negative consequences. For example, when the wearer is gambling, the effect will not increase their chances of winning, but will reduce the amount of money lost when they lose a round. Statistics show that wearing SCP-CN-3040 can increase the wearer's score in a revolver test to an average of 4.5, thus decreasing the chance of being killed (experiencing negative consequences) by 30%.
Of note is that SCP-CN-3040's anomalous effects are passive; no knowledge of the object itself or its anomalous properties is required, meaning that personnel may wear the object for a long period of time but remain completely unaware of the presence of its effects.
SCP-CN-3040 is currently used in the O5 Council voting procedure to assist the Council in avoiding incorrect decisions and additional responsibilities resulting from such. Since the use of SCP-CN-3040 began, loss of O5 Council personnel held accountable for such mistakes has decreased to a record low.
