What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
This adds SCP's 131-A and 131-B "Eye Pods" To the servers. They are harmless safe class SCP's that have a single unblinking eye, roll around on wheels and can scoot up walls (This does not need to be cannon for server lore.) And they have no braking mechanisms. Causing them to run headlong into walls, tables, other objects. (Can play a sound like an scp banging on a door if he rolls headlong into one this would also help with alerting others to his wearabouts if he gets stuck as much like 912 they would not have keycards + They can act as if they are always on slick ice) They are fast (Faster than a d-class scout). Seemingly sentient possessing knowledge seemingly preknown that 173 cannot move if being looked at. They have the behavior of a common housecat, overly curious and inquisitive and do not require anything other than visual stimuli. They often bond, like puppies, to those that give them affection and will follow them around. Often into restricted areas. But when talked down to or ignored by their bonded partner will wander away back to whatever they were doing before. They also have a hazardous radar, able to sense danger coming and will let out high pitched garbled nonsense at an erratic rate to warn those they are bonded to. Could add a slight outline to close range SCP's during breaches. Similar to thaum/type blue outline when selecting targets for their powers.

I think this could be a fun addition to the game and the SCP List with them being able to assist with 173 tests. As they always go the same way. 3 D-class are taken to his cell and summarily are executed as everyone seems to, for some reason, blink all at the exact same time. Regardless of how many eyes he has on him. This could nullify 173 for the duration of the test which is what he is used for/has been used for in lore. This SCP can be classed anywhere from lvl 1 overall to lvl 15, donator only or even a whitelist. Due to his ability to completely nullify 173. (Could make him terrified of gunfire to combat his overutilization in 173 breaches. So that while 173 is alone and a 131 runs past him he can stand there and stare at him. But once shooting starts he HAS to run away.) Could also give him the ability to see 966

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
After considerable attempts at searching I could not find a thread named SCP-131 or any variation though I have seen him on another SCP server years and years ago. I am sure he's been suggested. But I couldn't find it.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
This SCP can assist with tests offering a hard counter to 173 so tests on him can be securely and safely managed so any 173 test isn't just a way of sacrificing 3 dclass which happens every single solitary time I've ever seen 173 tested on.
Depending on the level this SCP is set at he could be a new player's first time to be able to explore the facility. And follow people into higher level zones. To gain an understanding of the layout of the foundation.
It will add a little more roleplay in the form of a utility SCP that chases people around like a little pet.
Can act like a radar for non-combatives leading them through the facility to safety and guiding them into avoiding other SCPs and hazards.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Will annoy the ever-living heck out of 173 players being a hard counter to him allowing him to be recontained easily. (Hence the suggestion of making him whitelist or donator + making him afraid of gunfire)
Might stop 966 breaches early due to knowing where 966 is being able to chase or stare at him.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Would add some simple yet fun SCP's to be zipping around the foundation adding to the life of the site and making it seem like a place where foundation staff and SCP's can get along well. I would love to see 131's racing each other down the halls or around d-block, seeing the E-11 freak out when one rolls headlong into a bulkhead they are camping. Or just in general being cute little fellas. I would like to see 173 tests/cleaning done without the complete death of every D-class involved. The rp could be rather goofy with /me CLANGS off the door. /me flips as he bangs against the wall. /me does a slight burnout in reply.
 
Suggestion Denied



Hi @DasPookieBear

Thanks for taking the time to make a server suggestion.

The Content Team has chosen to deny your suggestion due to the following reason(s):

SCP 131 is an event SCP ran by are GMs and Event team. And it would cause balancing issues with SCP 173 as He's already a fairly weak SCP as of now.

Your suggestion will now be locked and marked as denied.​
