The Forest Guardian

Real Name: Reed

SCP-9086-L: Forest Guardian

Object Class: Euclid

There was once a beautiful forest in Oregon that was rich in soil and green nature. Animals lived freely, clean water ran and fresh fruit blossomed, it could be confused for a paradise, one that was inhabited by no man. However one day the forest was ravaged down to create the biggest city in the world, the city of DistrictTopia,

The creation lead to a high amount of damage to the environment, many animals dying or fleeing for safety. The day that the city was scheduled to open, was one of the most mysterious events in human history.

By the end of the event, the entire city was enveloped by vegetation as if it's been abandoned for centuries, as if mother nature took back what was hers. The SCP Foundation sent MTF Theta-4 ("Gardeners") to investigate the destroyed city. After hours of wondering the labyrinth of over growth and plant life, they found SCP-9086-L. After an interview they concluded that the entity that referred to himself as "Reed", was a manifestation of nature itself.

Reed was a kind and empathetic individual who saw value in all life, you could easily believe he wouldn't hurt a fly. However you can easily make him mad by disturbing the natural environment, who commit heinous acts. While many assume that he's a pacifistic hippie, it's worth noting the large army he created.
