**The Historian Archive** is a massively expansive and highly intuitive interconnected digitized (pun intended) web of information. Based solely on the two-decade-long personal notes of **Shay Daniels** and various historical references, the archive is a gold mine of information. Created by Shay Daniels and **Dakari Onasi**, the library is the largest composite of historically accurate information indexed and properly filed.

## **History**

**Shay Daniels** has always held onto random bits of information from history, which has only increased with time as he gained total recall. However, **Jane Harper** proposed the idea of a digital database for Shay to utilize information that he may not think of or that has a connection to what he is doing. After the superhuman war with **SHIELD**, Shay reached out to **Dakari Onasi** with the idea, and the two created The Historian Archive.

The database was added to his suit, but after the darker revelations of **Alexis May**, Shay refused to add it to The Alchemist Computer. However, **Monica Eden** learned of its existence but kept this information to herself, wanting to utilize it for her gain. The Historian Archive has been used significantly and has become a mainstay in Shay's arsenal and daily life.

## **Contents**

On the surface, The Historian Archive seemingly has no practical application. However, when thought about further, it becomes clear that it is one of the most powerful tools in the world. That statement isn't hyperbole either, as **Evan Edwards of Earth-505** and Dakari Onasi have called it. It is a more extensive digital history library than the Library of Congress. However, Shay doesn't consider the past as history as he knows he is living through history; thus, the archive also houses this.

Shay has taken detailed notes on the superhero community and, with Dakari's help, gained more profound knowledge on things that aren't even released to the public. The archive houses information about a litany of superpowers mentioned or seen by the news and various other sources. He has profiles on superhumans, villains, and heroes, along with detailed references to where they operate and whether they are imprisoned. Not to mention that through Dakari and Rainbow, the archive has the schematics of the Iron Man Armors and how they work.

Due to Shay's travels, the archive also holds the secrets to the multiverse, as it is the only thing on **Earth-30** with extensive notes and details of the concept. It houses information about the omniverse, different realities, and technology that can be used to traverse the multiverse. This also includes histories of those other realities and specific, powerful items from said universes. Furthering the extensive knowledge of the archive, Shay also has all of the **LVMPD** cases and **Dawn FM** cases inputted into the database.

In addition, the archive has extensive lore on the occult after learning that both vampires and werewolves are real. These reveals have led to Shay studying the occult, and the database reflects that as it has a relatively large parent folder that houses several smaller folders on various occult-related things such as types of magic, spells, historical figures, Blades of Power, a complete English translation of the Gigas Codex, and more.

## **Capabilities**

The entire database is controlled by a silent AI that categorizes information automatically, and new information is fed into the database through digital upload and scanning. Whenever an item is connected to the database, the user can call upon a category or a specific item through voice command or using the holographic UI. What makes The Historian Archive one of the most dangerous items in the world isn't what it can do for someone but, instead, what it can grant someone. It is a fountain of knowledge that has the secrets to the ultimate mystery of the universe and the superhero community at large. And it is only protected and guarded by a King and a young man from Vegas, which is horrifying.

The hard-light holographic datapads are very tangible and have weight. They can be handed to and read by others without problem or glitching. Anyone with access to The Historian Archive and the passkey can utilize its wealth of knowledge. However, specific parent folders are locked behind other passkeys, such as things relating to secret identities, powers and weaknesses, histories of superhumans and superhuman teams, and more. General history information and news articles are unprotected.

There is a "Master Control" function for The Historian Archive. This function allows users to access all protected data and highly classified parent folders, such as The Secrets of The Multiverse. With Master Control, the user can utilize the archive's "overclocking" feature, which allows users to connect the library's AI to fabrication machines to create items from history. While Shay has access to the entire library, only Dakari has the Master Control function and will grant Shay this ability when he turns thirty or in extreme cases.

Lastly, the archive can be accessed anywhere on the planet and in the universe. The library is routinely downloaded for offline usage, allowing Shay to call upon the archive freely without needing to be connected to an internet source. It is also accessible throughout the multiverse, according to Dakari, but this is yet to be seen.

## **Trivia**

* The idea of having a database for all of his information came from **Jane Harper**.
* **Ren** uses The Historian Archive for homework purposes.
	+ Only a handful of individuals have access to The Historian Archive because of it's dangerous nature. These include a handful of members of **Hooligans** and Dakari. **Alexis** is excluded from this list as Shay began to distrust her since her return to the land of the living.
* Dakari will often input new information.
* As of the current date, Shay has claimed to have read nearly everything in the database.
* **Rainbow** has attempted to convince Shay to give them access but to no avail.
