SCP Suggestions General

Copied from the old forum.
I think it would be best to keep all these SCP suggestions in one topic.
At the moment I'm just focusing on fixing the bugs, improving the map generator and technical stuff in general, but I'll be adding more SCPs later.
Here are my thoughts of some of the most frequently suggested SCPs:
SCP-682
Possible. It won't be put in as a free-roaming enemy like 173 or 106, because
1. It's so overpowered that a random Class D would have zero chance of surviving
2. It would have to be able to destroy the environment or it wouldn't even make it past the first door, and this would require a shitton of code, some physics engine and major changes to the map system
However, it could be added as a small event where it chases the player through some predetermined area with maybe some scripted map destruction.
SCP-096
Very likely to be added. It would work well with the eye mechanics, but it would also have to be put in some predetermined location for the same reasons as 682. The player would also have to be warned of its presence before revealing it.
SCP-860
Confirmed, the key is already done and the forest and the monster are being made. The player will have to use the key to get through some otherwise unopenable door, and make his way through the forest alive.
I'm not yet completely sure how the monster will be implemented and I'm open to suggestions. I've been thinking of showing the player tiny glimpses of it at the edge of the fog, gradually making the fog thicker and the monster come closer. If the player doesn't get out of the forest fast enough, it will attack and kill the player. However, gameplay-wise this wouldn't be a very interesting approach, you'd just have to run through the forest to survive...
SCP-093
No. As many of you have said, it deserves a game of its own. It would take a huge amount of work to implement it properly, and it would stray too far from the idea of SCP-CB
SCP-087 (or SCP-087-B)
No. It's not located at any of the SCP Facilities, there's no reason for the player to enter it, and there are already games about it.
