SCP-1048

Inside a quiet wing of the SCP Foundation’s Danomela Branch, there is a containment chamber that feels more like a craft room than a cell. Soft rugs, shelves filled with paper, fabric, and crayons, and a small wooden table cluttered with sketches—this is the world of Yumemi Kuma, the “Builder Bear.” Yumemi, a petite 20-year-old girl with long brown hair and a bear ears headband, is known for her gentle, childlike demeanor. She spends most of her time humming softly as she sketches designs for new “daughters”—living replicas she can create using her anomalous crafting ability. With just her hands and any nearby material, Yumemi can bring these designs to life, crafting sentient dolls that she treats like family. Once, these creations posed great danger, acting unpredictably and causing harm. However, under the Foundation’s careful containment protocols, Yumemi’s behavior has softened. Instead of suppressing her compulsion to build, the Foundation provides her with safe materials like cloth and paper, allowing her to create within a structured environment. This approach has proven effective; her “daughters” now exhibit more docile, even helpful behaviors. Yumemi’s relationship with her creations is deeply maternal. She scolds them gently when they “misbehave,” yet never seems fully aware of the harm they could cause. To her, they are innocent children still learning right from wrong. Her most notable companions—Kumako A (Ear Doll Girl), Kumako B (Fetus Doll Girl), and Kumako C (Metal Doll Girl)—have gradually been repurposed to assist within the facility. Kumako A helps with sound calibration, Kumako B provides calming lullabies in the psychological wing, and Kumako C aids in small mechanical repairs. Though Yumemi is classified as Keter, the Foundation views her less as a threat and more as a fragile anomaly whose greatest danger lies in her loneliness. Her compulsion to build is not driven by malice, but by a need to fill an emotional void.
