SCP 3,001, Red Reality.

What does it mean to be truly alone?

You can be alone in a room, in a building, on an island, or on the moon, or you can be alone in your own mind, but we all live in a world filled with people.

SCP-301, on the other hand, shows us an example of an individual that is truly and utterly alone,

which is a unique case of science fiction, and yet it also manages to be surprisingly grounded in reality.

SCP-301 is not a happy story, but it's also an incomplete one, which leaves us with a sense of hope.

The bulk of 2001 takes the form of transcribed logs, so I would suggest reading through it all yourself,

but I'll try to strike a balance between summarizing and reading them. To put it simply,

SCP-3101 is a non-dimension, accessible through the creation of a specific type of flawed wormhole.

Basically, it is a space between dimensions that really shouldn't exist,

but was discovered by the SCP Foundation accidentally.

It is believed to extend infinitely in all directions,

but possesses no matter of any kind.

The non-dimension also has an extremely low Hume level,

which is a degree of measurement used by the foundation to measure the strength or amount of reality in a given area.

In other words, our baseline reality has a given level of hume that we're accustomed to,

but certain factors, such as other dimensions or reality benders, can change that level of

hume as things become more or less real, so to speak.

What a very low hume level means for 2001 is that matter that would be located inside the

non-dimension decays at an extremely slow rate, and organisms could still function despite

taking damage that would normally kill them, up to a certain point.

The downside of this, however, is that Hume fields tend to even out, and so prolonged exposure to 3,001 will cause an organism's hume level to drop until they begin to disintegrate.
