On the "Shadows Seeking the Grail" Canon

⚠ There may be SPaG errors on this page.

Shadows Seeking the Grail is about relics/holy grails, Sacred Power Reactors (SPRs), faith, the Seventh Occult War, and Nazis. In this canon, relics are energy sources, and SPRs that have such relics at their cores allow faith energy to be converted into other energies.

SPRs were widely used in the Seventh Occult War, especially in Nazi Germany, where the Obskurakorps was actively mass-producing and weaponizing them. Besides being used as the cores of SPRs, relics were sometimes used as they were.

The military use of relics eventually led to the localized collapse of the Hanging Heaven in Lombardy, Italy. After that, the SPR technologies had been forbidden, but there are still many seekers of relics…

【SCP-1927-JP - For His Highest】
SCP-1927-JP is a system that converts faith energy (Akiva energy) into random other energy (EVE or various physical energies). It uses relics widely worshipped by people as the reactor cores. This system is also called as "Sacred Power Reactors" (SPRs) and can be described as an anomalous version of nuclear reactors.

SPRs were theorized by Christian Rosenkreutz (the legendary founder of the Rosenkreuzer) around the 15th century, but were long lost by the suppression of the Catholic Church. The next time it appeared in history was in the 18th century, when Alessandro Cagliostro established the modern style of SPRs. He was imprisoned, but some of his study results were recovered by his patrons.

At the end of the 19th century, the Golden Dawn created and experimented with the early instances of SPRs. Due to internal strife within the GD, a human-caused SPR runaway occurred in Blythe Road, England, in April 1900. The Incident Blythe Road caused HMFSCP to consider SPRs as dangerous anomalies.

However, due to the split in the GD and the global disruption of the paranormal potential that was occurring at the same time (due to the killing of a demiurge in the Sixth Occult War), SPR theories spread throughout the continent, and HMFSCP's containment attempts of SPRs had failed.

With the spread of SPRs, various occult organizations throughout Europe, such as the Thule Society, began to search for relics to serve as the reactor cores. The Arnenelbe Obskurakorps, which succeeded Toure, set out to mass-produce and weaponize SPRs. The Obskurakorps repeatedly searched for and robbed relics in various regions, thereby creating a series of SPR weapons.

During the Seventh Occult War, occult organizations around the world used SPR weapons (for example, in the U.S., SPR-based bombs were developed and used), and nearly half of them used in the OW7 were produced by the Obskurakorps.

Eventually, the Obskurakorps found the true Holy Grail, which was loaded into SPR #266.

On May 25, 1945, Heinrich Himmler's corpse was revived and he escaped with Hitler's body. Himmler attempted to activate SPR #266, but failed to do so because he had lost part of his brain by the British military. As a result, the Holy Grail and Hitler have merged conceptually.

Based on the Avignon Agreement signed after the war, the use of SPRs is officially forbidden. However, it appears to be relatively easy to create in practice.

Since the "Nazi grail" is now widely believed, it is possible to make high-powered SPRs even with its imitations. For this reason, the Foundation and GOC are struggling with the problem of SPRs.

【Gravitas Gradalis】
Black Queens was talking about Gravitas Gradalis, or the "Super Heavy Grail". Gravitas Gradalis is an anomalous grail that converts its own faith energy into gravitational energy. In the M-029 timeline (the universe of Shadows Seeking the Grail), Gravitas Gradalis was created by the SPR runaway on the Incident Blythe Road.

【Go to the Dark with Screaming Eagles】
On June 6, 1944, as part of Operation Neptune, the "Percival" team from the USAF took action to recover the "True Holy Grail" from the Obskurakorps. The team fought alongside the Rosenkreuzer against the Obskrakorps and succeeded in recovering the grail. The grail turned out to be fake, but from then on, the team was assigned the tasks of searching for relics.

【SCP-1924-JP - The Sacrament of the Late Gen. Rommel】
SCP-1924-JP is a semi-conceptual entity of General Erwin Rommel. If a person believes that Rommel is in a nearby, closed room where no one observes the interior, traces will appear in the room as if Rommel were actually active in the room. It is assumed that the grail used in Rommel's poisoning suicide in October 1944 was an anomalous artifact. The paranormal grail was intentionally prepared by Obscurakorps in order to keep Rommel active after his death.

【SCP-1921-JP - The Holy Grail of Saint-Germain】
SCP-1921-JP is a wooden grail. Only one certain family can inherit this, and any other person/organization receiving it will be doomed. Ms. Yvette Germain is the current owner of SCP-1921-JP. According to her, one of her distant ancestors who served the Count of Saint Germain as a maid received the name "Germain" and the grail.

However, Yvette is absolutely infertile and unable to bear children. Not knowing what would happen if the owner of SCP-1921-JP were to disappear, the Foundation continues fertility treatments and the inhumane procedure of "Treatment 1921-Matuwa" in order to conceive her in secret.

【Notes of a German Archaeologist】
An exploration party of the Thule Society investigated branch universes in search of a world where "the Aryans are the originators of mankind". During their search, they arrived at what appeared to be the mansion of the Count of St. Germain, then they discovered a holy grail there. However, the team were pursued by a slime-like monster that appeared from the basement, and the team were almost destroyed. An archaeologist accompanying the team managed to return to the base reality with the grail. However, the grail was stolen by a ninja (a member of Mujin-Getsudō-Shū) who suddenly appeared.

【SCP-2983-JP - The Collapse of the Hanging Heaven】
The Hanging Heaven is a heavenly layer described in SCP-014-IT-ARC, an anomalous version of Dante's "Divine Comedy," and is teeming with countless monsters. In the SCP-2983-JP article, the Hanging Heaven is inhabited by those whom God has created but abandoned.

One day, the "Holy Grail of Saint Germain" (SCP-1921-JP) recovered by the Obskurakorps was transferred to RIDIA, the Italian paranormal agency. In response to a request for anomalous supplies from the North African front, due to the shortness of such supplies, RIDIA determined to send this grail.

During the transfer over Italy, the aircraft strayed into the vicinity of the Hanging Heaven. The angels retrieved the grail and presented it to God, but because it was a cursed grail that brought ruin to its owner, it caused the annihilation of God and the fall of the Hanging Heaven.

On the 27th, a multitude of monsters descended on Lombardy, Italy, and attacked people. The early Foundation, which was in the process of formation at the time, dealt with this disaster. Today, the collapse of the Hanging Heaven has been covered up by the Foundation.

But what actually happened is unclear. According to the Foundation, this event (April 25-28, 1945) was the subject of an anomalous causal reversal phenomenon, and belief in it would make it so. The Foundation keeps telling the event information to its personnel in order to ensure its own roots and the non-existence of God. This phenomenon is designated SCP-2983-JP.

【Pan-organization Exchange: At the New York】
Orientation on SPRs at the joint briefing between GOC and the HI "Project Malleus". Today, SPRs can be created on a lower budget than in the early days and can easily extract enough energy to destroy a city. For this reason, both groups are trying to cooperate in dealing with SPRs.

【Yamizushi File No.1012 "Sauerkraut"】
Dr. Torayar (not to be confused with Dr. Toraya of the Foundation), a prominent Dark Sushi1 researcher, contacted an occultist from the OBSKURA (the remnants of the Obskurakorps) in search of new sushi ingredients.

He was told, "Grails are only grails when they are believed in. For example, sauerkraut is just a strange pickled cabbage to the Japanese folks, but to us it is soul food. The important thing is not what it is, but how it is received." Based on this conversation, Dr. Trayar has developed the sauerkraut sushi that has a special anomalous effect on the Japanese people.
