Overview
The Central Autonomic Service System for Internal Emergencies (C.A.S.S.I.E.) (also known as CASSIE) is an automatic service system that is used for the management and mitigation of emergencies that occur within Site-02. CASSIE will make announcements throughout the facility during an emergency. These announcements can range from warning everyone in Light Containment Zone about the Decontamination Process to the recontainment of an SCP.
In-game, CASSIE is not a true Text-to-Speech system. Everything CASSIE can say is a pre-recorded line said by a real human. CASSIE is voiced by Narlor.
Lore
CASSIE first began operation in March 2008. Initially, it primarily functioned as a simple PA system, although it had limited autonomy to, for example, put out fires or detect a disease outbreak within the site. In the following eight years, CASSIE was continually upgraded, with new and improved systems expanding CASSIE's control over the site.
CASSIE's present role is to keep the staff of Site-02 safe from a range of emergencies. Such emergencies include containment breaches, fires, Chaos Insurgency attacks or biological threats. If a threat is detected, Site Management will be alerted and CASSIE will wait for a response. If no response is provided, CASSIE will act within its capabilities to mitigate or eliminate the threat.
Because of the nature of CASSIE's role, several security measures are implemented. CASSIE's core is tighly guarded, requiring Level 5 clearance to access and override it. Sources indicate that CASSIE's core was last opened in December 2014 for the installation of new upgrades. This restriction means that CASSIE can only be controlled remotely - with numerous measures in place to prevent hacking or malicious communications.

In-game
At the start of the game, CASSIE will perform a site wide scan, as shown by the monitors found in the Light Containment Checkpoints and LCZ elevators. After about 20 seconds into the round CASSIE will initiate a P-B-3 security procedure, a schedule Decontamination Process, in Light Containment Zone. CASSIE will warn everyone in Light Containment Zone about the schedule decontamination. The monitors found in both LCZ Checkpoints and above the elevators that lead to Light Containment Zone will now have a timer showing how much time is remaining until decontamination. After the timer hits zero, CASSIE will lock down Light Containment Zone and decontaminate it, killing anyone left inside it.
CASSIE will also make multiple announcements throughout the game, including the death of an SCP, time remaining until LCZ is decontaminated, activation of an Emergency Power Station, Mobile Task Force spawn, and the activation and deactivation of the Alpha Warhead. Randomly, when CASSIE is making announcements, glitch sound effects will occur and CASSIE will even sometimes stutter on a word.
Using Remote Admin, one can create custom announcements with CASSIE. There are over 700 possible words CASSIE can say including numbers, ending sounds and the NATO Alphabet. One can also changed the pitch of these custom announcements, add glitch sound effects and even make CASSIE stutter on a word.
If one tries to make CASSIE say a word that isn't in the database, the word will simply be skipped.
Currently, CASSIE's room is not ingame, but the CASSIE doc mentions that its room is located on the Surface Zone.
Protocols
CASSIE has many protocols that it will activate in the response to a threat, such as anti-fire protocols, lockdown protocols and anti-SCP protocols.
There are four different types of protocols that CASSIE can use.
- P-E protocols are Thermal procedures which are used to stop the spread of fire or prevent explosions.
- P-B protocols are Biological hazard removal procedures which include things like Decontamination of a zone and Alpha Warhead activation.
- P-L protocols are Lockdown procedures which are used to lockdown the facility.
- P-S protocols are Anti-SCP procedures are used to slowdown SCPs and announce their termination or recontainment.
In-game Protocols
Only some of CASSIE's protocols are ingame, they are as follows:
- P-B-3 Zone-wide Decontamination (S): A schedule Decontamination of a zone.
- P-S-1 SCP Proximity Track: CASSIE uses the security cameras around the facility to monitor the breached SCPs.
- P-S-2 SCP Mortality and Status Track: Equivalent of P-S-1, which notifies personnel regarding elimination & recontainment of escaped SCPs.
- P-S-3 Tesla Gate: Enabling Tesla Gates to terminate and/or obstruct passing SCPs.
Announcements
Throughout the game, C.A.S.S.I.E. will make multiple announcements related to events that have happened. Bells will play before each announcement allowing the player to know when an announcement is about to start. When an announcement ends, bells will play once more. Throughout the announcement, background fuzz can be heard. C.A.S.S.I.E. will also glitch and stutter on a word every once in awhile.
Nine Tailed Fox
One of the following will play when Nine Tailed Fox respawn.
SCP Related Announcements
When an SCP dies, CASSIE will announce the SCP's death plus how the SCP died.
If SCP-106 is killed by the femur breaker CASSIE will not announce the containment unit as the femur breaker and instead will list the containment unit as the class who activated the femur breaker.
Emergency Power Stations
When an Emergency Power Station is turned on CASSIE will play the following announcements
Nuke
CASSIE will announce the activation, reactivation and deactivation of the nuke, plus the time until detonation.
Activation
One of the following lines will play when the nuke is turned on for the first time in a round.
Cancellation
Reactivation
One of the following lines will play when the nuke is reactivated after being cancelled.
Decontamination
Throughout the round CASSIE will announce the status of Light Containment Zone Decontamination Process.
All these announcements can only be heard by people in LCZ with the exception of the Light Containment Zone is locked down line, which is played throughout the whole facility.
Custom
Using the Remote Admin command, CASSIE, one can generate custom announcements from a word list of over 700 different words. Attempting to make CASSIE say a word not in his databank will cause him to just skip it, as no audio file for it exist.
