    Default OT: Who is the weakest character to survive the full wrath of the SCP Foundation

    For those not familiar with the full SCP verse, the story of SCP 5000 tells of a time where the Foundation, for reasons that are never made explicitly clear, declared war on the entire human race by releasing every monster, nightmare and anomaly in containment below that of reality warpers with the intent of exterminating the human race without destroying the planet itself.

    My question is, in a reality where such monsters are running loose, what is the weakest character in fiction that would have a better than fair chance of surviving the end of the world as we know it with everything that the SCP Foundation has ever encountered now set loose.

    Remember, nothing from the Foundation's archives that could potentially destroy the entire planet.

    So, one of the major problems here is the assumption of a "full SCP verse". That is specifically not a thing. The SCP wiki has never been concerned with making a cohesive setting narrative - rather, the authors are all doing their own thing, and you, the reader, can choose which bits you consider "canon".

    Many SCPs are mutually contradictory. Some SCPs have links referencing other SCPs that got deleted and their space reused for an entirely different SCP. At one point a great purge was used to remove things considered too fanficc-y to be left around, such as the Foundation's liberal use of Telekill as a containment substance, and a nigh-unstoppable SCP immortal warrior used to supplement their containment teams, and there are articles that escaped the retcon and still reference these things in their original capacity. There is or was an SCP used as a "reset button" that just resets existence and has been used countless times according to its article. Heck, SCP-0001 *explicitly* is a mulitple choice option.

    There's a series of SCPs that take place in deep space and involve a pantheon of dead alien gods and some sort of killer apocalyptic SCP headed towards Earth, including one where the Sun is sentient and *pissed*. There's one SCP written that includes a future timeline of the thing's appearance over the next several centuries and humanity's struggles in dealing with it. There is an SCP article that is basically the apocalyptic logs of the near-future Foundation and all life on Earth getting wiped out by SCP-ified water. (That one is notable for *not* being set in some sort of alternate universe reached by portal like a number of other apocalyptic SCPs. If you try to make an "all SCP articles are canon" setting, the Foundation and humanity itself *don't exist anymore.*) None of these are compatible.

    So, that said, let's just go with "what can survive pretty much every SCP written below the planet-breaking threshold." And the answer is... not much. Best answer is, ironically, SCP-682 with his memetic Squirrel Girl-esque "does not die because it's funny" schtick. 682's own logs include trying to kill it with things that turn it into fiction and similar metanarrative attacks that pretty much wipe out almost any answer someone could give. However, at least one SCP features an alternate universe Foundation that accidentally leaked something so lethal that the explorers found a dead 682 - i.e. there is technically an SCP that deals with even that level of nonsense, and it is very probable that an untriggered version exists in your hypothetical scenario that then gets set off. Note that many of the SCPs that kill everything leave the planet behind, so they are perfectly viable for this scenario.

    So, serious answer? SCP-507. He survives by immediately vacating to a dimension where this isn't happening.

    Since unmaking reality, fiction, and the universe is kind of the benchmark (even keeping it to planetary levels)…….


    I would say something truly esoteric, like the Darkvoid Device or Owen Deathstalker (fully realized).

    Maybe the Drood family from Secret Histories. They are pretty much their own SCP-Foundation with access and means to kill unkillable things, with extra-dimensional armor that lol nope most things in turn.

    Well the MunchKING could easily survive by just warping out to a different reality all together and just not worrying about that one anymore.

    Following that logic, as long as they aren't targeted immediately, the weakest person I could think of to survive would be either the titular Magician's Nephew, who was an ordinary boy aside from his magic D-hopping ring, or his little girlfriend who was the same, but a bit physically weaker because she was a younger girl.
    The MunchKING is Back! And he is AWSOME!
