    I always liked the UIU. Their “incompetence” is mostly lack of resources due to those that actually know the truth of anomalies don’t trust politicians to know so little money is allocated.
    But the Foundation realizes the value of them in certain situations so trusts them enough to give them smaller items to keep them around.

      There's way too little evidence for the paranatural in the real world, and while that may sound like the sort of stuff stubborn idiots say in supernormal settings that's only because there's definite evidence in fictional stories and the fact that they do exist is basically undisputed the second you get that evidence, unlike our world.

After the breach alert is sent and MTF is dispatched, some nearby UIU are sent over to assist the on-site security with keeping the perimeter stable. If the MTF sustain heavy losses after deploying, but they’ve managed to stabilize the situation to a manageable level, then the UIU are sent in along with a Foundation security chief or something to help the MTF secure the last few anomalies and wrap up the job.

    The thing is, they aren't exactly a joke, and the recruiter is already evident that he's well trained and experienced in this field. (What with, dodging over 1100 rounds of a Desert Eagle and not being in a hospital by now.)
    It's only really because they are the bridge between the normal and supernatural, leaning more towards the normal. Given time, however, and if the SCP Foundation or any other GOI *really* needs them, like the GOC, then it can be assumed they can do relatively good work.
    Part of the only reason they are a joke is that they take orders from the most unassuming people. A pizza delivery guy. A bank teller. A blind guy with a seeing-eye dog. But once you see the horrors that are on the other side, then you don't care if you are a joke. You care if you will live or not.

    I like the UIU man. They're like the equiveleant of the beat town cops who constantly have to fight to keep every investigation transferred to the FBI and despite having fewer resources and less well trained members are constantly underestimated and by sheer force of determination to prove they can go toe to toe with their bigger more well equipped brother and maybe even handle it BETTER than them in our real world, only in THIS case the FEDS are the small fish and the SCP is the big brother. They're like the underdogs and it's hard not to root for them because they're so underestimated they're more relateable as people than the cold, sterile, scientific foundation. Again, it's like how we root for the small town cops because they're more relateable and in the same vein the UIU are just normal ass people and detectives in comparison to the know-it-all almost faceless SCP foundation, yeah there's personalities in the SCP foundation but they're personalities because they're wacky and fascinating like the (atleast in most later depictions) wacky Dr. Bright or the cold calculating almost representative of the SCPF philosophy of Dr. Gears, or the mystery and anomalous effects of Clef who cant have pictures taken of him. The UIU doesn't have characters like this because they're just average people in way over their heads, like the Detective from Call of Cthulu who I can't even remember the NAME of but I still root for because he's just a dude somehow managing to survive eldritch abominations and psycho cults and still through raw determination perserveres to find the truth and try to unravel the mystery behind everything. Because despite not having a source of borderline omniscient information (like the SCPF seems to have most of the time) or any sort of powers or mcguffins that give him an advantage he still charges into the dark blind hoping to turn on a light for the people who come after him. Idk man like I said it's a lot easier to root for the UIU than like the GOC with their literal armies or even the Serpent's Hand with their mysterious otherworldly powers and insight (some of which even the SCPF doesnt have) specifically BECAUSE they're considered such a big, naive joke.

    I love the UIU.
    They are so out of their league, but by God they're trying. They just lack the resources or experience that the Foundation, GOC, or MC&D have.
    I could definitely see an SCP show with a UIU agent as the POV character in understanding the world of anomalies.
    Or a TTRPG a la Call of Cthulhu where you can play as a UIU agent.
    I just really love the UIU, man.

    In-universe conspiricy theory: the UIU are actually very powerful, using pseudo-antimemetic anomalies to be seen as unimportant, with the eventual reveal of Three Portlands and the Department Of Abnormalities being some of their few failures.

    People who keep making fun of the UIU for being the "little brother' forget that the UIU has 3 major things the Foundation wants/needs.
    1. Authority over the Free port of 3 Portlands.
    2. NDA's that are anomalous in nature and are actually more effective than Amnestics and most anti-memes.
    3. Telepathic fish taking calls for them. (Just process how cool that is)
    4. Also acting as a diplomatic Middle man with the Pentagram/GOC and the SCP Foundation.

    • @SageofStars
      @SageofStars 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think this is the reason they help keep the UIU around by giving them easier to capture and contain anomalies. After all, they do seem to try and make sure the stuff the UIU deals with is something they 'can' deal with first and foremost if they get them involved, allowing the UIU to maintain a good reputation within its own circles, if not within the Anomalous World itself.
      Basically, point 4 is the big one, they make a good middle man, and having an inroad to a larger resource base is a good idea, if not immediately, then in times of desperation. The fact that they're aware of, and can talk to, the other groups helps too, as if you needed a middle man to parley between MC&D, Serpent's Hand, GOC, and Foundation, they'd be the perfect pick, as everyone involved would know they're there more to serve as the 'normal guy' of the group. Basically, they're Green Arrow from Justice League Unlimited. Never the best, but always ready.

    It would be interesting to have a game where you start as a proud new recruit still believing they is doing their country proud. They are oblivious and still underestimating the paranormal, until during a routine mission, exposes you to a serious threat. You first hand experience the severity and magnitude of the anomolous world and the other more secretive powers that dwarf your own. Being exposed to it the UIU sends you to more dangerous missions with the SCP Foundation always being involved.

    The UIU also would work well as a contingency plan for the us government in that case that the foundation goes rogue. As for now it's underfunded but it just has to function as a skeleton on which the us can build any time when it is required.

    @Myzelfa 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I've always believe the Foundation has to be SCP-001. It's just the most sensible conclusion to make in that universe. But there are a lot of ways to interpret how that could be. I like the idea that the Foundation grew out of a pre-existing organization dealing with comparatively minor anomalies.
    Some anomalous event started to imitate the UIU, its people, and their operational procedures. In order to do that, eventually it had to start producing its own anomalies to have something to protect. It means the entire SCP universe is one gigantic feedback loop of anomalous activity. If you look at SCP articles over time, the degree to which they pose a threat against human existence increases almost exponentially. The feedback loop idea makes a lot of sense.

    I really like the UIU, honestly. They do their jobs to an adequate standard without the support of: their country, their government, or even their peers in the FBI. They are almost completely alone in their fight, if it weren't for their unofficial alliance with the Foundation. They're just regular, old-school lawmen in an indescribably and impossibly big world. Despite all the ridicule, each of them knows the scale of the frontline they stand on, and probably take pride knowing they are privy to an entirely different world than all the chumps working small-time mundane cases involving serial killers and drug dealers.
    "Fidelity, Bravery, Integrity" all things the FBI should stand for in our own universe.
