# The Archivist ## Background Dr. Evelyn Cross, known as "The Archivist", was once a brilliant historian and archivist at the National Museum. After uncovering evidence of a massive conspiracy to erase and rewrite history, she was discredited, fired, and left destitute. Now she seeks to expose the truth and remake the world in her image of "pure" history. ## Motivations - Uncover and preserve "true" history - Punish those who distort or erase the past - Gain power to control historical narratives ## Abilities - Eidetic memory of historical facts and dates - Can extract memories from objects and people by touch - Uses a collection of historical artifacts as weapons ## Internal Conflicts - Desires truth but willing to manipulate facts to suit her needs - Longs for human connection but pushes everyone away - Questions if she's become what she once fought against ## Ultimate Goal To gain control of all major historical archives and education systems, allowing her to shape humanity's understanding of the past and by extension, the future. ## Notable Quotes > "History is written by the victors. I intend to rewrite it for the vanquished." > "The past is not dead. It's not even past. And I will make the world remember." > "They say those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. I say those who *control* history are destined to rule it."
