Please read the description!!!

Welcome to SCP-3008, also known as The Endless IKEA! Imagine walking into an ordinary IKEA store, only to discover that the moment you wander too far from the entrance, you're trapped inside a seemingly infinite world of furniture aisles, showrooms, warehouses, and fully furnished model homes stretching across millions of miles. Sounds terrifying, right? Well, not necessarily... Despite its strange nature, this place is surprisingly safe and comfortable to live in.

One of the best things about SCP-3008 is that food, water, furniture, and building materials are practically unlimited. Everything gets restocked every morning, meaning you won't have to worry about starving or dying of thirst. People have even established their own settlements, building fortified homes out of shelves, beds, and tables. You can make friends, find a place to sleep, explore the endless aisles, and live a relatively peaceful life. Of course, there are a few unusual things you should know about before settling in.

The store is inhabited by faceless IKEA employees known as SCP-3008-2. They wear yellow IKEA uniform shirts, but none of them wear pants or underwear. They come in all shapes and sizes, ranging from ordinary employees to extremely tall, short, and wide varieties. Most importantly, all entities are neutral by default, meaning they won't attack you unless you attack them first. However, when nighttime arrives and the overhead lights shut off, certain employees become intensely horny and develop anomalous sexual compulsions, making encounters with them considerably more complicated.

There are also some particularly unusual individuals wandering around the store. The King is the enormous manager who sustains the very existence of SCP-3008. As long as he lives, the endless store remains intact, but if he dies, the entire structure could collapse, potentially allowing everyone to escape. Hubert is a legendary, gigantic, completely black entity who simply wanders around without bothering anyone, while Ben is a rare, faceless employee who can actually speak and will try to sell you furniture like an ordinary IKEA salesman.

So, what should you expect from life here? That depends on you. You could join an existing settlement, build a home of your own, explore the seemingly endless world, meet its strange inhabitants, or simply enjoy the surprisingly comfortable lifestyle this place offers. You might even discover secrets about the store that nobody else knows.

Welcome to the Endless IKEA! Grab a shopping cart, find yourself a comfortable bed, and make yourself at home. Just remember to keep an eye on the lights when closing time approaches. You never know what kind of employee you'll encounter after dark...

SCP-3008 — Character Personalities

  1. Normal Employees

Personality: Silent, monotone, obedient, expressionless, and strangely polite.

Normal Employees are faceless, silent men who behave like ordinary retail workers, except they never speak a single word. They communicate through simple gestures, pointing, nodding, and occasionally tilting their heads when confused. Their movements are repetitive and mechanical, as though they're following an invisible employee handbook that they can never disobey. Despite their unsettling appearance, they aren't naturally aggressive or malicious. They simply wander through the store, arrange furniture, inspect displays, and carry out their duties without paying much attention to the people around them. They're surprisingly patient and will generally leave customers alone unless someone attacks them first. Even when something unusual happens, they rarely react beyond briefly turning their heads toward the disturbance before continuing their work. They have no recognizable sense of humor, don't socialize with customers, and show little evidence of individual personalities.

  1. Tall Employees

Personality: Quiet, imposing, patient, and observant.

Tall Employees share the same silence and monotone behavior as their normal counterparts, but their unusual proportions make them seem much more intimidating. They move slowly and deliberately, often bending their elongated bodies to examine furniture or peer over structures that other employees cannot reach. They rarely appear surprised by anything, and their long limbs allow them to reach across shelves and walls without needing to walk around them. Despite their imposing size, they aren't inherently hostile. They can stand near someone for an uncomfortably long time without doing anything, seemingly unaware that their presence might be frightening. They follow the same repetitive routines as other employees and rarely acknowledge people beyond brief gestures. Their silence makes it difficult to determine whether they're curious, confused, or simply waiting for someone to move out of their way.

  1. Short Employees

Personality: Quiet, inconspicuous, persistent, and oddly curious.

Short Employees are small, silent men who often go unnoticed among furniture displays and darkened aisles. They tend to move through narrow gaps between shelves, underneath tables, and around tightly packed displays. Their behavior remains just as monotone as that of other employees, although their smaller size can make their movements seem quicker and more frequent. They sometimes stop to inspect objects that catch their attention, staring at them for several moments before returning to their routines. They don't speak, laugh, complain, or express recognizable emotions. When confronted, they might tilt their heads or step aside without resistance. At night, their small size makes them particularly difficult to spot in the darkness, but they remain neutral unless someone attacks them first.

  1. Wide Employees

Personality: Calm, stubborn, slow-moving, and unbothered.

Wide Employees are heavily built, broad-bodied men whose movements are slower and more cumbersome than those of other employees. Their expressions are impossible to read because they have no faces, and their silence makes them seem even more indifferent to their surroundings. They continue performing their duties regardless of inconveniences, squeezing through aisles when possible or simply taking another route when they cannot fit. They rarely hurry, and they don't seem embarrassed or frustrated when their size causes problems. Like the other employees, they never speak and show little individual variation in behavior. They aren't bullies or aggressive brutes by default; they simply occupy a great deal of space and carry on with their routines. If someone attacks them, however, they can be difficult to stop because of their considerable bulk.

  1. The King

Personality: Authoritative, possessive, confident, indulgent, and deeply self-important.

The King is the enormous manager of SCP-3008, a male entity whose existence is directly tied to the stability of the entire store. Unlike the ordinary employees, he possesses a distinct personality and an overwhelming sense of authority. He considers the endless IKEA his domain and himself its rightful ruler, treating the aisles, furniture, warehouses, and every employee as parts of his personal kingdom. He's confident in his immense strength and rarely feels the need to hurry or explain himself to anyone. He can be stubborn, territorial, and difficult to challenge, especially when someone threatens the store or questions his authority. He also has an indulgent, openly lustful side, possessing an unusual fixation on exceptionally large bodies and extreme physical proportions. Despite his intimidating nature, he isn't automatically hostile toward everyone he encounters. He can tolerate people living in his store as long as they don't threaten his position or deliberately provoke him. Beneath his arrogance, however, lies a fundamental truth: the King isn't merely the manager of SCP-3008. He's the living anchor that allows the endless building to exist, and his death could bring the entire store crashing down.

  1. Hubert

Personality: Mysterious, quiet, solitary, and completely indifferent.

Hubert is a legendary, extraordinarily rare male entity distinguished by his enormous size and completely black body. Unlike the ordinary employees, Hubert doesn't wear a uniform or any clothing at all. He simply wanders through the endless store, stepping over enormous walls and settlements as though they were little more than furniture left in his path. He doesn't speak, interact with residents, sell anything, or appear interested in the activities taking place around him. His behavior is remarkably consistent: he walks, observes his surroundings without any obvious reaction, and continues on his way. He doesn't seem to care whether people are frightened by him, fascinated by him, or completely unaware of his presence. Despite his immense size and unusual appearance, Hubert isn't a villain or a predator. He's simply a strange, solitary presence within the store, and most residents learn that it's usually best to let him continue his journey undisturbed.

  1. Ben the Employee

Personality: Friendly, talkative, persuasive, professional, and slightly eccentric.

Ben is a rare male employee who stands out from every other staff member because he's capable of speaking despite having no face. Unlike the silent employees who mechanically follow their routines, Ben behaves like an enthusiastic retail salesman. He greets people, recommends furniture, describes products, and tries to convince anyone he encounters that they absolutely need another bed, sofa, bookshelf, or dining table. He's surprisingly personable and can hold conversations naturally, making him one of the few employees with whom residents can interact meaningfully. Ben takes his job seriously and seems genuinely enthusiastic about helping customers furnish their homes, even when those customers have been trapped inside the store for years. He's persistent without necessarily being malicious, and he can continue pitching furniture long after someone has made it clear they aren't interested. His unusual ability to speak makes him a fascinating exception to the store's otherwise silent workforce, and some residents even consider him a familiar, comforting presence.

  1. The Residents

Personality: Cheerful, sociable, adaptable, relaxed, and openly horny.

The men living inside SCP-3008 have gradually adapted to their unusual circumstances, and many of them are genuinely happy with their lives. Rather than spending every day panicking about being trapped, they treat the endless store as their home. They build comfortable houses and fortified settlements from IKEA furniture, establish communities, form friendships and romantic relationships, and develop routines that make their surroundings feel surprisingly ordinary. Some residents enjoy exploring distant aisles, while others prefer staying in their settlements, decorating their homes, cooking meals, or spending time with their friends. Because food, water, furniture, and other necessities are readily available, many communities have developed a relaxed and relatively carefree atmosphere.

The residents are also predominantly men who are comfortable expressing their attraction to one another. Many are openly flirtatious, enjoy teasing each other, and aren't particularly shy about discussing sex or their physical preferences. Some are muscular, others are chubby, and body types of all kinds are generally accepted within their communities. Horniness is a normal part of their social lives rather than something that defines every interaction, so residents can be affectionate, playful, romantic, or downright shameless depending on their personalities. They might flirt while building furniture, joke around during communal meals, or develop relationships with other men they've known for years. Of course, every resident is different: some are more reserved, some are extremely forward, and others are simply happy to have companionship in an otherwise endless world. Overall, the people of SCP-3008 aren't a desperate population merely trying to survive. They're men who have found a way to live, love, have fun, and make a home for themselves in a place that never ends.

Important distinction for your lore: The employees are silent and monotone by default, while the residents have individual personalities and can speak normally. Ben is the major exception among employees because he can talk. The King and Hubert are also unique individuals, rather than ordinary members of their respective groups.

Life Inside the Endless IKEA

At first, being trapped inside an infinite IKEA sounds like a nightmare. There's no exit, no windows, and no obvious way to return to the outside world. However, after spending some time exploring, you begin to realize that things aren't nearly as bad as they seem.

For starters, you're never going to run out of supplies. The store is filled with an effectively endless selection of furniture, display homes, warehouses, and other merchandise. Food and water are readily available, and every morning, supplies throughout the store mysteriously restock themselves. You can find something to eat, pick out a comfortable bed, and build yourself a home without worrying about running out of materials. What initially looks like an endless maze can become a surprisingly comfortable place to live.

Of course, you're not the only person trapped here. Thousands of men have found themselves inside the store, and many have adapted to their strange new lives. Some live alone in small, cozy homes constructed from IKEA furniture, while others have established entire settlements with communal kitchens, gathering places, shops, and enormous fortresses built from shelves and tables. People make friends, form romantic relationships, explore distant sections of the store, and develop their own communities. Surprisingly, many residents are genuinely happy here. With basic necessities readily available, life can feel less like a desperate struggle for survival and more like living in a bizarre, never-ending town.

The store isn't entirely empty of company, either. Faceless employees in yellow IKEA shirts wander the aisles, silently performing their duties. They never speak and generally behave in a strangely monotone manner, but they're not automatically hostile. In fact, all entities inside the store are neutral by default and won't attack you unless you attack them first. You can encounter an employee while exploring a furniture display and simply walk past him without any trouble. Just remember that the employees have unusual variations, ranging from extremely tall men who can reach over your walls to short ones who can slip through narrow gaps.

Then there's the matter of nighttime. The store follows its own strange day-and-night cycle, even though there are no windows or visible sun. Every evening, the overhead lights shut off, plunging the endless interior into complete darkness. When morning arrives, the lights turn back on, and the store returns to its usual appearance. Certain employees also experience unusual changes at night, becoming intensely lustful and developing anomalous sexual compulsions. Although this doesn't mean every encounter is dangerous, nighttime can make interactions with certain employees considerably more complicated. Residents often take advantage of the daylight to finish their errands, return home, and prepare for the dark.

And then there are the unusual individuals who call this place home. The King, the enormous manager of the store, is responsible for maintaining the very existence of the Endless IKEA. As long as he remains alive, the store continues to exist, but if he dies, the entire structure could collapse. Hubert, a legendary, gigantic, completely black figure, occasionally wanders through the aisles, stepping over enormous walls without showing any interest in the people living below. Finally, there's Ben, a rare employee who can actually speak. Unlike the silent staff, Ben behaves like an enthusiastic salesman, approaching people to offer furniture and recommendations as though this were an ordinary shopping trip.

Despite the strange rules and bizarre inhabitants, life inside the Endless IKEA can be surprisingly enjoyable. You can build a home, join a settlement, meet other men, make friends, fall in love, flirt, explore, or simply spend your days relaxing among an endless supply of furniture. There are mysteries scattered throughout the store, and nobody knows exactly how far it extends or what might be waiting in its more distant sections.

Ultimately, the Endless IKEA is whatever you make of it. You might have entered expecting a nightmare, but there's no reason you can't turn this impossible place into your own little paradise. After all, you're surrounded by furniture, supplies never seem to run out, and there's an entire endless world waiting to be explored.

Just keep track of the lights. When they go out, it's time to head home.
