Summary: SCP-111 is an artificially-created species of snail-like creatures. 111 instances present with many traits that are unusual for snails, such as having warm-blooded metabolism, complex eyes, small horn-like structures, seemingly increased intelligence, and jaw structures. They're also capable of laying shelled eggs. In reference to 111's name, they are able to expel small jets of flame from their mouths, usually only when stressed or angry, however the fire isn't used to harm, so much as it's used to warn. 111 instances have methane sacs that act as the fuel for their fire-breathing, as well as very starch-rich diets to help them refuel. 111 adults care for their children, as well as make vocalizations audible to humans. Hatchlings imprint on whomever they perceive to be their owners, whether it's their biological parents, random members of their species, or in some cases researchers handling them soon after birth. 111 was discovered when a package of the eggs was mailed directly to a Foundation front organization, with no way of locating the return address. These snails were created by Dr. Wondertainment, an anomalous being focused on creating anomalous children's toys and various products. Included on the package were instructions and a list of different Dragon-Snail™ species. The listed species are as follows: Slimybellies®, Oozedrakes®, Goowyverns®, Blobworms®, Glowdrakes®, and Gunkwyverns®, each with their own color palettes. The Glowdrakes® can, like their name suggests, glow in the dark. The Gunkwyverns® have transparent eggs. The rest are pretty standard fire-breathing snails.

Usefulness: Not very useful, but they're adorable.
