Archivist (Zoat)
The Archivist is a Zoat, who like all of its kind, is a master manipulator that uses other species to aid it in collecting archeotech.[1]
Should it encounter others who wish to do the same, the Archivist will draw upon all of its technology and intellect to disrupt their activities or mold them to its purposes. Those it cannot be coerced in this way, soon find themselves facing much more hostile methods, as the Archivist will not hesitate to engage with its formidable Atomic Disassembler or Eradicator Glove to destroy all who resist its manipulations.[1]
Its constant quest to recover archeotech, led the Archivist to travel to the space station Precipice, where the Zoat presented itself as a data trader. It sought to collect archeotech from the nearby Seventh Blackstone Fortress and the Archivist lied and made lucrative promises to numerous groups of explorers, in order to get them to collect the relics for it. Among the archeotech successfully recovered by these groups, were the remains of a Zoat spacecraft and another relic of the Archivist's race, known as the Grayl Intulia. Once it had stockpiled a large cache of archeotech, however, the Archivist promptly disappeared, leaving many promises unfulfilled and many hapless allies trapped in the maddening depths of the Fortress. The Zoat now roams the galaxy, continuing to recover archeotech amidst the anarchy brought about by the Great Rift's creation.[1]
