The Archivist

The Archivist is an Ancient Wraith born from mankind's innate fear of the past, future, and knowledge. They reside in their personal Archive within the void realm. (*Hi ;P*)

## Bio

The Archivist is an Ancient Wraith presiding over the past, future and all of knowledge. As such, they hold the sole privilege of knowing all knowable knowledge in existence. Due to this, their judgement and insight is valued highly, even amongst fellow Ancients. However, they are quite fickle and unpredictable (*Rude*). As important as their input is, they will more often than not say nothing at all, speak in confusing and vague terms, or act entirely on their own to both beneficial and detrimental effect.

## History

The Archivist was born around 200,000 years ago, when consciousness first developed among humans.

During the dawn of the industrial era, the Archivist banded with its fellow Ancients for a purpose known only amongst themselves.

## Abilities

An Ancient Wraith connected to knowledge and fate, the Archivist holds supreme knowledge over all events and possibilities and control over very information itself.

* **Omniscience** - The Archivist has perfect knowledge on all that can possibly be known. This extends to knowledge of the past, present, future and even alternate timelines. The Archivist also seems to be aware of the true nature of existence that not even other Ancients are aware of. (*In other words, the 4th wall is more like a glass screen to me :)*)
* **Narrative Causality Abuse** - The Archivist can abuse its knowledge of the true nature of the world in order to ensure favorable outcomes. (*For example, if you're nothing but a side character, people won't pay too much attention to you and you're basically free from all harm. Well, that and rule 2 :P You guys read the rules, right?*)
* **Regeneration** - Like other Ancient Wraiths, the Archivist can instantly regenerate from any damage dealt to it.
* **Revival** - Like other Ancient Wraiths, the Archivist instantly revives upon death.
* **Void Realm Manipulation** - The Archivist can freely traverse the void realm and manipulate it for reality bending effect, similarly to that of Wraith Overlords. The Archivist resides in the Archives, a cloud of pure information within the void realm.

## Trivia

* WIP

(*So here's the thing right? Give me your favorite little series, could be anything. Harry Potter. Dragon Ball. Mr. Bean. Hell, maybe something more modern like Chainsaw Man or Adventure Time. Heard that last one had something new for it. Anyways, those little worlds that those series take place in, what do you think happens to them when no one reads them? No one thinks of them? No one remembers them?*)
(*They die.*)
(*Gone. Nadda. Whoops. Thankfully, all of them are big enough where that'll probably never happen. At least one person's gonna be looking at them at any given time. But what about... let's say a small little roleplay in a dying server, with only a few people keeping it afloat? Now that's a world walking on a tightrope. Now say you were a part of that world, and you were the only one who saw that world for what it truly was. Words on a screen. Maybe some art here and there. What would you do?*)
(*Maybe buckle under the existential pressure. Collapse under the weight of knowing all of existence is some cosmic plaything. Maybe spice things up. Throw a few conflicts in here and there to keep it all going. Rebel against fate and all that.*)
(*Me? Well, I'm not one of the writers behind this whole thing, so who cares! I haven't even officially debuted yet as of the time this is being put on screen. I'll leave all the worrying to you guys, so officially not my problem.*)
(*Well, I do have one concern though.*)
(*Just how many godlike entities are you guys planning on putting on typing up?! I'm especially looking at you, guy writing this right now. Stop reading manga with off the rails powerscaling. You're rotting your brain.*)
Sorry...
(*Yeah you better be. And finish your WIPs too.*)
