⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $2.2M/yr
92.5% probability / year
Normal year with standard monitoring, captures, transfers, and routine operations.
routine births/captures scheduled monitoring and transfers
🚨 Minor Incident $2.3M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$100K vs baseline
Local cluster of anomalous births requiring extra captures, emergency transport, and additional amnestic events.
clustered births extra transfers and short-term charters
🚨 Major Breach $2.7M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$500K vs baseline
Significant containment breach or multiple simultaneous events requiring large-scale response, mass amnestics, and PR/legal spending.

🚨 Catastrophic Breach $3.2M/yr
0.5% probability / year +$1.0M vs baseline
Major incident (e.g., large public manifestation, loss/damage of many SCP-7924-B artifacts) requiring emergency operations, recovery, and significant legal/compensation payouts.
