SCP-532 | Frost Bug (SCP Orientation)

SCP Orientation is an archive of files of the SCP Foundation. Today we will be studying Item number SCP-532: Frost Bug, Object class: Keter. SCP-532 is a pathogenic bacteria most similar in composition to Pseudomonas oryzihabitans. Several small flagella line the cell membrane, allowing SCP-532 to be carried by air currents into the upper stratosphere and lower mesosphere. Due to a lack of energy source, SCP-532 will enter into a state of hibernation for an indefinite amount of time while in the atmosphere. SCP-532 will leave its hibernating state once it detects warm air currents coming from the troposphere. The heat provided by the troposphere generally causes several instances of SCP-532 to turn into a «clump», similar in view to a snowflake. SCP-532 is coated in a chemical that reacts with the lipids of an exothermic organism's cell membranes to create an endothermic reaction. This simultaneously kills nearby tissue and provides a suitable temperature for SCP-532 to reproduce. Victims of SCP-532 describe this in a similar manner to the cold felt when a snowflake makes contact with human skin. SCP-532 shows a 98% mortality rate if left untreated, 100% if SCP-532 is «caught on the tongue». Proceed to begin your training.
