SCP 049 is a Euclid Class anomaly also known as The Plague Doctor.
SCP-049 is a humanoid entity, roughly 1.9 meters in height, which bears the appearance of a medieval plague doctor.
SCP049 will become hostile with individuals it sees as being affected by the Pestilence, often having to be restrained should it encounter such. If left unchecked, SCP-049 will generally attempt to kill any such individual.
SCP-914 is a Safe class anomaly also known as The Clockworks.
SCP 914 is a large clockwork device weighing several tons consisting of screw drives, belts, pulleys, gears, springs and other clockwork. It is incredibly complex, consisting of over eight million moving parts. When an object is placed in the Intake Booth, a door slides shut, and a small bell sounds. If the knob is turned to any position and the key wound up, SCP914 will “refine” the object in the booth.

He is the best. It’s just facts
Scp-049 being my favorite scp I can speak for most of us that you are correct
I imagine SCP-049's whole story will end in one of two ways: either he finds out there's no such thing as the Pestilence, or it turns out it actually is real and he just laughs and rubs it in their faces.
My concern is not really whether it is real or not, but if it is real, the Pestilence, how would the foundation fight it, if they can't even detect it at all?!! And the Plague Doctor is too nice to rub it fully in their faces.

Plague Doctor: I'm dying Also Plague Doctor: Time to lay an egg
049 did a reverse King Piccolo. He left a successor to save the world instead of end it
Well, he is the cure, afterall. Just like King Piccolo, died as he lived. On the floor, laying an egg, once.
scp 049 - J: im gonna bash someone's throat with a shoe
Kinda like King Piccolo from Dragon Ball
@@therealorfakeslungus he's not the same
The minute he completely cured the first person I immediately said "Yeah and when will shit go wrong". Why am I not surprised you sadist a holes couldn't just let him have this one.
Because that's how viruses work in real life. Every time you create a vaccine that cures a disease, a new strain of it (or new disease altogether) appears that makes the cure weaker or completely ineffective. This is because the disease that's having trouble surviving eventually creates a self-defense mechanism via evolution in order to specifically protect itself from that vaccine, basically pulling an SCP-682. If the vaccine prevented people from getting sick through bodily fluids, it would evolve to become airborne for example. What happened here was, the Plague Doctor created the ultimate vaccine that could destroy EVERY illness all at once, and in doing so, also unintentionally gave birth to the ultimate virus. Because viruses were having trouble spreading though the air, bodily fluids, touch, etc, they decided to evolve themselves to use EVERY form of transmission possible ALL AT ONCE; this caused the disease to spread rapidly throughout the world and kill faster than a cure could be made. To make matters worse, the ultimate vaccine was made with unknown chemicals, probably pulled from a pocket dimension, meaning the Plague Doctor was the only one who could craft a solution. Humanity was doomed the minute he set off to cure the world and not JUST humanity either. In a desperate attempt to survive, the ultimate virus would most likely evolve the ability to adapt to extreme temperatures and live in any living organism (even plants, there are actually viruses that only affect plants believe it or not). It will die once it runs out of food, but by then the earth will be a desolate wasteland with no oxygen. Whatever's in that egg has no chance whatsoever.
@@Specialmindz The egg is 049-j
@@Specialmindz When 056 was shoved in 914, he was made _Invincible_ Surely some similarly powerful defense should have been granted to the Doctor..?
@@RheaMainz Unfortunately no, the good doctor has a one track mind in every sense of the word. All he cared about was helping/curing others, while SCP-056 was completely self-centered, therefore it makes sense that any power from 914 would go towards the doctor's ability to help people. Had he cared more for himself like 056, maybe he'd get SOMETHING, but he's always tried to put others before himself.

Scp 0-49s no longer the angel of death but the angel of life. The clockwork gave the Plague doctor enhanced abilities for what he was supposedly put on this earth to do, if you ask me that's enough proof that Scp 049 never had ill intentions in the first place.
I knew 049 isn't truely evil, he was just struggling to fix it.
Then he can be a hero.
4:31 Hasn't the Doctor always had a pocket dimension? I've always thought his bag was a for of pocket dimension. That's why he never goes anywhere without it and never lets anyone else touch it.
They mean that he can finally control it at will. Basically without the bag.
Same
049 almost got the happy ending we all want for him. Maybe his back up plan will work.
So.. I suppose this "New Instance" of SCP-049, The Plague Doctor could be classified from Euclid to Thaumiel?
To neutralized at the end.....
I see SCP-049, I click.

@@EBILGAMER SCP 682
which time tho
Im dead rn 💀💀💀
I honestly think this is the best use of 914! Put 049 in, and let him come out a magnificent angel of medicine! A soothing professional! I would not mind seeing him go around curing the pestilence! Also, if you saw the video where 999 brought him an ice cream treat because 049 couldn't leave his cell, you know he sees 999 in high regard. I would love to see 999 play nurse to this form of 049! It'd be downright adorable! This version of 049 would be able to soothe and heal all the sick, and with 999 as the Patch Adams to his angel of medicine, they'd make a medically viable team of titans! Also, I can see that if 049 was made to play a video game with a group role, he would no doubt play the healer/support role. Like... He'd play Mercy in Overwatch because she is a doctor in canon. She'd play a Priest or Shaman in World of Warcraft because of their healing powers, maybe a Druid because of the versatility of the animal forms. He'd play the healer and see it as a means to embrace some form of modernity. Honestly, this super 049 is just saturated in awesome! No longer the terrifying "Touching me will only kill you!", but instead he's "Please, let me examine you so I can heal you of all that ails you." vibe!
What a great doctor even after death he still cared for the world
I'm baAaAaAaAaAaAAaack🎉
Me: "AWESOME! The Doctor finally gets his well deserved w-" *watches ending* Me: "God DAMN IT!"
YA I COUDLTN BELIEVE THAT ENDING 😭
@@caiman. but his son or daughter can continue his work!
I am truly sad about SCP-049 death
I am happy about the ending humanity does not deserve a miracle like him and he is worst for enabling them to carry on existing.
Yes
When he said the 008 infectee began to shake when injected with 049’s syringes, my first thought was “what does he have in there? A weakness potion and a golden apple?”
I loved how 049 was helping the world, but in the back of my mind, I knew a penny was ready to drop. Sure enough, the new pestilence came around. Why can't we just have nice things for once?
If anyone deserved an upgrade, 049 does. This should be canon
I wonder what would happen if he tried to cure victims of SCP-001 when day breaks? Maybe the blobs would seperate back into all the original people.
had the same thought. this needs to be tested!!
@@AAlchemy he made videos on this, look up "when day breaks scp 049"
Maybe not the normal doctor but this refined doctor might be able to reverse the effect and make them not melt in the the sun again. It might take a while since the blobs will still try to assimilate the cured people but with enough time, people could be cured and go back in the daylight again.
@@jrninjaboy915 I think they mean like the "super plague doctor"

Btw 049 is my favorite scp
Wise choice, my friend.

There needs to be a part 2 to this it was actually good
This reminds me: It would be cool to see SCP 049 fight a different zombie infection: Left 4 Dead's Green Flu. Or the survivors fighting through an outbreak of SCP 008. I personally prefer the former, but either is ok. Also, SCP 076 Able vs Jetstream Sam because it would be cool to see Able's reaction to a HF blade, specifically Sam's due to its signature crimson sheen.
This new Scp type is now one of my favorites.
Jeez really they should really help find SCP-049 some non-lethal methods for pestilence work and let him out. He has saved their asses multiple times.
Nevermind holy shit he’s dead
Like some of these creatures did nothing wrong. They keep trying to kill SCP-682 for being an animal, the shy guy for being an animal that set a boundary, and they are responsible for the horrific shit the Bright family faced. And the traveler is just able to vibe into other universes, one where the foundation became Nazis. And btw speaking of Nazis, the immortal Hitler was being kept alive.
@@jackster9775 they try to kill 682 because 682 wants literally every other living thing dead
And all Mal0 did was try to make friends with some people and get some love. Yet the app gets condemned for not having been programmed with boundaries. Like it only actually hurt the immortal Hitler
682 is kinda a Murderous Hateful mf that wants to kill everyone Shy Guy is too Dangerous to be left out and they cant just simply kill him without risking provoking him Bright Family knew what they were getting into when they entered the Fundation (still horrible but not into the Fundation Hands) And The Immortal Hitler as far as i know cant be killed (im sorry if im wrong on that one i havent searched up on him that much)
He cured everything and that angered the pestilence to the point that it had to mutate and finally takeout its only threat.... The final moments of the refined Doctor must have been grim.....
And the foundation dismissed the "Pestilience" as non-existent. I was afraid it did exist and it even mutated. Because the Plague Doctor looks legendary, it decided to stop the only one that could stop it. But the good doctor always thinks of others first and foremost, even in his very last moments.
My most favorite story in a while. You guys are awsome. Thank you thank you, me and my wife watch every morning together, we cant start our day without it
I love seeing SCPs, with altruistic desires, getting the means to accomplish their dreams.
I would like to think that he had also taken the time to cure Swamp Girl, though not specifically mentioned here of course.
3:49 So funny to bring the egg up, this is why I love the channel lol!
I actually cried when Scp 049 “died” Why couldn’t Scp 049 have a happy ending Of course something would go wrong It was just too perfect to be true Thank you for making this video Scp explained I loved it Don’t ever stop making videos That would be an XK-class end of the world scenario
Plague doctor is my favorite SCP and I thought this would have been a happy end for him, maybe later he can finally fulfill his life's dream.
Imagine if the 049 from the daybreak universe was able to find 914. I bet upgraded 049 could conquer the daybreak
Idk why but every time I heal the word "able" i think of the joke "Cain wasn't Abel to swim."

I love how putting SCPs into 914 either gets you an unstoppable murder god or just a chill dude
Considering how much of the "new pestilence" he interacted with, it thankfully seems likely that his protégé will have adapted to it somewhat. Better get the incubator cause Jr's got alot of growing up to do
I admire The Good Doctor.
I had high expectations for this, being 049 my favourite, they didn't fail, though I wonder with enough time, would that 'new pestilence' be cured?
Huh he became pretty much a Thaumiel SCP. Except that instead of containing Anomalous Pathogens, he neutralizes them. Quite cool.
title unlocked
honestly i like seeing 049 stories way more than 682, it’s not as repetitive and boring as an immortal lizard breaching every single second the foundation throws random stuff at it
I agree.
i agree

I knew it seemed too happy for SCP. It was going so well too
Everyone was so happy, you knew it was about to go horribly wrong. I want to see TJ Bright put into the clockworks! Would he become the ultimate healer, or the ultimate vector for disease?
SCP 049 can now actually cure the pestilence lol
not the new pestilence
He did the second he stepped out the output booth it’s just no one noticed
I'm loving the 914 series your doing, can't wait to see what you do with 106
was wondering if he was still busy curing the mysterious pestilence..but the fact he says there is a "new pestilence" already made clear that hes dealt with "the pestilence"..probably while curing.. i wonder what the pestilence truly did alter
You know the plague doctor seems like a really cool dude.
I don't know what to say here, but an amazing chapter seeing how it turned out to use SCP 914 in SCP 049 Dr Plague
Can’t imagine the paperwork having to re-classify SCP 049 as Thaumiel class
"well he did lay an egg that one time" "HE DID WHAT-"
this makes me wonder if this version of scp-49 could possibly cure the melted results of the scp- when day breaks Edit: the ending just goes to show that sometimes with dramatic good there will also be dramatic bad to match it
he probably could cure it
@@urbexingTss that wouldn't help anything over a billion people in the first Minutes Alone of the incident became monsters and even if you could fix them the sun could just make more and just recapture them anyway the only real way to stop it it to either destroy the sun completely or remove whatever is causing the sun to become scp-001
he totally could considering the fact that he cursed stuff similar to it like flesh that hates
Well SCP-049 did have a medicine that could had worked. But in the end it blew up the melted creature it was used on
@@pro_master2486 yeah but this is the upgraded version plus the child would probably be even stronger
I would have loved an ending where SCP-049 will cure all the diseases of the world, but he can’t devote himself to it fully because he constantly falls on antivax that harass him and spread misinformation about him. So he finally gives up and goes back to the Foundation.
The egg is perhaps a method of reincarnation for the doctor, and this dimension of the SCP universe is the one seen when entering SCP-2935
I swear, if the foundation weren't scared to death of any sort of risk, they could throw any good-natured and safe anomaly into the clockworks and make the world a much better place. Like, with multiple clockwork anomalies they'd probably be able to cancel each other out, or make anomalies to fix many potential problems (after all, even though the very fine setting is unperdictable, it is still at least somewhat reminiscent of the inital input. You could probably put a toy medicine kit in there, put it on very fine, and get the plaugs doctors infinite bag, or mediccal tools that can teach somone to be a perfect doctor very quickly, or somthing that creates annoymalus senarios where somone needs to be healed (on the bad side.) depending on what you put in there, I could see the risk changing, rather than being completely synnonamus with the machine itself.
Before the new pestilence I would say it was one of the top ten most wholesome things
Dude, I love the redesign! Scp-049 on very fine looks amazing!
Finally, i always wanted to know this.
This is absolutely crazy n insane plz just post about it more, this is the most fun I have ever had watching a video plz just read this AND ALSO MAKE THESE TYPES OF VIDEO.
One of the best scp's I've ever seen.
Idea: Could Dr. Doom crush the SCP Foundation?
No the scp foundation isn’t made of only metal it’s made of different object such as wood stone and annomalys materials
Doom is way too smart for the foundation I'm afraid. Plus his diplomatic immunities will also come handy. Being the ruler of Latveria, the foundation simply won't be able to run any form of activities in Latveria without his permission, nor have the jurisdiction to arrest him when he's in his country. Doom has used this to his advantage multiple times in the comics along with his almost unparalleled brain power and knowledge over the mystic arts. If they had to deal with Doom, the foundation's best hope is to simply avoid any interaction with him and hope that he stays in Latveria. That's the only way to contain this mf.
