What it does

In the SCP universe the creature is known as the Imposter that is sus, and it appears innocent: a small, docile red crewmate called Phthonus. It wanders the overworld peacefully and only changes its behavior when provoked. Approaching it for too long causes nausea and slowness, which hurts the player and reveals its true identity, after which it shows its teeth, speeds up and attacks with a long spiked tongue or knife. Its attacks inflict Bleeding, and on death it leaves a red corpse.

The mod adds one new entity, and only one instance of SCP-5167 exists in a world at a time. It can turn up in the open world as an ordinary hostile monster would. The mod is built with MCreator and includes a config file, and it requires Geckolib to run. Files are published for Forge, for 1.20.1 with the latest build 1.0.0 released on 2026-06-10.

Key features

  1. Disguised spawn

    The creature spawns as a small docile crewmate that looks like the red character in Among Us.

  2. Provoked transformation

    Staying within six blocks too long triggers nausea and slowness, and the creature then drops its disguise and turns hostile.

  3. Chasing behavior

    A hostile SCP-5167 moves faster and deals high damage with its long spiked tongue, breaking glass, doors, trapdoors, leaves and fence gates along the way.

  4. Bleeding and corpse

    Its attacks inflict Bleeding, and on death it leaves a red corpse that marks the gruesome aftermath.
