O5 Command


 * Not to be confused with the false "05 Council", a Group of Interest from the Chinese SCP Wiki.



The O5 Command (also known as the O5 Council, Overseers, Overwatch, and the Big Thirteen) are the highest known authority within the SCP Foundation, consisting of the organization's top-ranking leaders.

They are a shadowy group of people, a secret society within a secret society, whose true identities are all classified as top-secret. Little is known about the O5 Command's membership; though it is generally accepted that it consists of about 13 people, however by some accounts the exact number varies. They may or may not answer to their own boss, the Administrator; assuming that he/she/they are not just another member of the O5 Council, then they are the true leader of the entire Foundation.

Alleged individuals who held O5 positions
Below is a list of characters who have allegedly held the title of Administrator or one of the O5s, according to multiple conflicting sources. Keep in mind that due to the lack of a single unified canon for the SCP Universe, the identities of O5 Command members will vary significantly depending on the story. Given that the Foundation has existed for at least a century or more, then it makes sense that many different people have held Level 5 ranks throughout the organization's long history, due to their predecessors dying or leaving their offices. It's also quite possible that different people constitute the O5 Council depending on the canon/continuity/timeline/universe within the greater SCP Multiverse.
