SCP-163 is a sapient organism of extraterrestrial origin. When standing, it is 2 m tall and 1.5 m wide, the bulk of the body being suspended 50 cm from the ground. The body is roughly cylindrical with a circular mouth at the bottom, the equivalent of a head at the top, and eight three-jointed legs arranged radially around the equator. SCP-163 also has a series of specialized limbs, listed here:
Two prehensile feeding apparatus on either side of the mouth.
Two arms near the top of the body, used for delicate manipulation.
Two larger arms located closer to the legs, used for heavy manipulation and lifting, and capable of producing a steady force of approximately 500 N and a striking force of up to 2000 N.
Two appendages of indeterminate function located between the legs and mouth-parts which had been amputated prior to SCP-163's discovery.
