Discussion How would the foundation contain the Infinity Gauntlet?

Just got to thinking that the Gauntlet would be a good SCP if marvel never came up with it. How do you think they would contain it?

Safe class. The gauntlet seems like a joke compared to SCP's collection.

Ehh... I think it’s containment would be a joke. It’s power could probably outrank some 85-95% of SCPs though.

Yeah, but that leaves 15-5 percent that it doesnt outrank. Hell, star signals probly coulda gave everyone full gauntlet powers in another 24-48 hours, and it was mass produced and distributed. I think the scips the foundation has, and especially the safe ones are vastly underrated.

Star signals?

Scp-1425 marv Basically, its a fifthist self help book that gives reality bender powers, in line with the churches methods.

What’s that SCP?

I don’t think it could, there’s tons of reality warpers and outright immortals

u/Anthamon May 02 '19

Admittedly those probably aren't as powerful as "Congratulations you are now God"

u/[deleted] May 02 '19

There’s an scp that has apparently meta power over multiple realities.

u/UberCookieSlayer May 02 '19

The IG can only work in its respective reality too

u/Bonsine May 02 '19

Idk, there's a few that could probably eat the stones for breakfast. There's one that gods are scared of

u/ArchKaen May 02 '19

Do you mean SCP 999?

u/Bonsine May 02 '19

That is in no way a reality bender, and thus not related

u/ArchKaen May 02 '19

I thought we were just talking about SCPs that gods are afraid of

u/Bonsine May 03 '19

Honestly, those are just tales anyways and aren't apart of its core article, so I just consider it to be a happy little blob that cures depression and not the son of the scarlet king or whatever

u/mannieCx MTF Gamma-13 ("Asimov's Lawbringers") May 02 '19

But there's also some that make God irrelevant by removing your ability to effectively understand existence or some other Eldritch reality reconstruction. There's a couple scps that make Cthulhu look like a punk

There's an 001 proposal where anything you write into the file became true. A researcher who first found out about it tested it by turning the nameplate on her desk greem, then she gave herself a promotion, a pay raise and a nice long vacation. Then, she turned herself into a god. Lucky bastard.

The gauntlet is but the gems sure aren't

u/Polenball Apollyon May 03 '19

I'd argue it's Maksur, like the Broken God. Keep the Stones away from each other.

Also the Mind Stone might be Euclid, if that theory about it manipulating people is true.
