Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Akuloth
Also known as "His Sacred White Worm". But I avoid calling it that in polite company.
Saša seems to just shrug off most illnesses with little to no reaction.
The Akuloth is a tape-worm like creature that was fed to Saša's mother while she was still pregnant. The creature latched onto Saša's still developing spine, fusing with it. It is now functionally invisible, except for those who know what to look for during a surgery.
The Akuloth is able to shield Saša from illness and any other bodily ailments by consuming them.

Never Take a Sick Day
“You think I have time to be sick? I don’t have time to be sick.”
Archie is immune to all mundane diseases; his ability to power through them has always been freakish, but now he doesn’t even have to pretend nothing’s bothering him.
Whether it’s true or not, Archie is confident that the whole building would come down if he weren’t on call to do his job as the head secretary of the Bank of America Corporate HQ. Having a job like that, you can’t be out for any reason- he has no kids to speak of, and honestly loves the job. So, when he got sick and powered through it much more miraculously than he should have been able to, Archie made his first realization on what the Games might be doing for him.

Collective Immunity
Never take a sick day.
UA-566 now seems capable of shrugging off the effects of most any illness or biological toxin. They have been seen to occasionally fall ill to their strange diet of living rodents, but this has become less and less common as of late. Cross testing with SCP contagions will likely begin once UA-566 seems capable of handling more than mundane illnesses.
