"Good heavens. It's worse than I thought. Like wildfire, it spreads. They should have brought me here sooner. I need to get to work before the disease consumes the rest of these poor souls." - SCP-049 upon viewing the camera feeds in the Surveillance Room

SCP-049 is a character from the game SCP: Containment Breach. SCP-049 is a humanoid entity which bears the appearance of a medieval plague doctor. While SCP-049 appears to be wearing the thick robes and the ceramic mask indicative of that profession, the garments instead seem to have grown out of SCP-049's body over time, and are now nearly indistinguishable from whatever form is beneath them.

SCP-049 is capable of causing all biological functions of an organism to cease through direct skin contact. SCP-049 has expressed frustration or remorse after these killings, indicating that they have done little to kill "The Pestilence", though will usually seek to then perform a crude surgery on the corpse using the implements contained within a black doctor's bag it carries on its person at all times. While these surgeries are not always successful, they often result in the creation of instances of SCP-049-2.
