The Hanged King is a powerful being in the SCP settings, being the monarch of the distant realm of Alagadda, and is considered one of the most enigmatic and powerful entities in the multiverse. Although it is often shown that the King is in actuality being used by his purported servant, the Ambassador of Alagadda. He is designated by the Foundation as SCP-2264-5. At some point the Hanged King came into contact with the Scarlet King, an even more powerful god, to whom he fell into service.
