The Scarlet King was born with the planting of the Tree of Knowledge, called Khahrahk at the time. He was the smallest of his siblings, but the only one aware, and it brought him great pain. He decided that existence itself is painful and that he'd have no part in it, as well as destroying existence and creation itself. He started by consuming his siblings and growing stronger on their essence. He love his six children and his son SCP 682, but he hates his seventh son SCP-999
