SCP-049 is a humanoid entity, roughly 1.9 meters in height, which bears the appearance of a medieval plague doctor. While SCP-049 appears to be wearing the thick robes and the mask indicative of that profession, the garments instead seem to have grown out of SCP-049's body. It can become irritated or at times aggressive if it feels that it is in the presence of what it calls the "Pestilence". By a touch direct skin touch he can kill living organism and turn them into SCP 049-2 Friend of Dr.Null
