Leverian

The Leverian is a museum of artifacts curated by the enigmatic Drusus Leverian. These galleries serve to shed light on WARFRAME's lore, each one being typically centered around a happenstance but historically significant tale of a Warframe; that is recreated by Drusus' in his investigations. Though the particular Warframe involved in these stories is not necessarily one of unique importance (such as being the first of its kind), they are typically some individual instance of that Warframe along with associated weapons and other items of interest.

==Accessing the Leverian==
A Warframe's Leverian entry can be accessed through the Codex, via the Leverian button on the lower right-hand corner of the screen on the Warframe's codex page, or via the Leverian tab of the Codex. Alternatively, the Leverian can also be accessed on the Market at either the Warframe's individual page or their collection page. Players can freely walk around in first-person view and examine the items on display in each gallery, which will bring up a lore entry narrated by Drusus himself relating to the Warframe's story.
== Lore & History ==
=== General ===
The Leverian, named after its own avid curator, Drusus Leverian, is a humble museum of artifacts dedicated to preservation of histories and stories, mainly that of the and their Warframes. Not wanting history to be forgotten and repeated, Drusus created the museum in hopes of sharing and preserving history for future generations to experience.
Despite receiving donations, Drusus mostly curates his museum independently, gathering and presenting the various artifacts that can be found throughout the Leverian, all while personally narrating the story behind each exhibit.
Even though Drusus acts as the main curator of the Leverian, it is only due to the efforts of its one and only chronicler, and dearest friend of Drusus, the Warframe , that much of the museum's exhibits even exist in the first place.
=== Bankruptcy ===
Due to the overall lack of visitors and donations, the Leverian was soon on the verge of bankruptcy. Sensing an opportunity, Founder Parvos Granum made Drusus an offer: As per a signed contract, Parvos would provide support to the ailing museum in exchange for numerous payments of historical artifacts.
However, when failing to make payment on time, the artifacts from Dante's gallery are confiscated as compensation, forcing Drusus to turn to the for assistance. As stated by the contract, any missed or late payments will result in immediate forfeiture of the Leverian, and will transfer ownership to Parvos. With the help of Drusus' old friend Loid, the Tenno use Albrecht's old Arterial Conduit network to gather artifacts as a favor for the curator.

*Drusus: "The Leverian... it was floundering, you understand? Going under! All that work I put into it, and so few visited, let alone donated. Oh, I don't mean you, of course. I know you're a friend to the Leverian. It just... wasn't enough. So when Parvos made me an offer... I thought, why not? Just let it go. Let it all go. I took the deal, Tenno. I shouldn't have, but I did. Oh, if only Dante were still around. Please, you must come see me."

==Notes==
*There is a small donation box beside the gallery entry, where players can donate Credits. Drusus will comment on the donation, expressing either resignation or excitement depending on the number of credits donated. The number of Credits donated will affect the type of greeting Drusus gives to the player whenever they enter a Leverian gallery.
*Each gallery contains a hidden item called a Prex, a tarot card representing the gallery's subject Warframe which can also be used as an Orbiter decoration. These can only be seen and collected by players if they have mastered the Warframe (reaching Rank 30, in either default or Prime variant). The location of the Prex cards are as follows:
*: Behind the final Ash display, on the floor in the far corner.
*: On the back of the left shoulder of one of the figures (not the Telamon).
*: Atop the empty statue pedestal.
*: Behind the flower TV in Höllvania Central Mall, immediately past the escalators once you leave the Backroom.
*: Hanging on the right slanted wall featuring the Altra Syandana.
*: Behind the wall featuring the Manse Gates. The very edges of the wall can be walked on, allowing the player to go behind it to obtain the card.
*: On the edge of the platform at the very start of the room, the player only needs to turn around.
*: Inside the donation box.
*: Underneath the left slanted wall featuring the Teng Dagger.
*: Behind the left slanted wall featuring the .
*: On a platform (which is invisible unless approached), accessed using an invisible bridge to the right of the wall featuring the Tharros.
*: Behind her statue at the end of her Leverian exhibit. There is an interaction prompt that causes the platform to rotate, revealing the card.
*In Voruna's Leverian, between her introduction and Dynar, at the edge of the platform featuring the Lua mural reveals a prompt to play the Lua's Prey cinematic trailer.
==Trivia==
*The name "Leverian" appears to be a tribute to the Leverian Collection, a museum established in 18th Century London and named after its curator Anton Lever, who collected creatures and artifacts for public display.
*Leverian was initially mentioned in the announcement, but all references to it had been removed prior to launch. It did launch as an undocumented feature with the update, however.
**Steve Sinclair claimed the removal was to reduce player hype, deeming the Leverian as a small addition.

*In her Leverian entry, Nova is described to have created a chain of linked portals in vents she didn't actually go through herself, as if she was able to place portals behind walls and facing the correct direction. It's unknown if this is just a dramatization or mistake on the Leverian's part for misinterpreting these ancient Warframe stories, or a capability Nova is supposed to be able to do lore-wise.
