The Compendium is a central knowledge and progression hub in 33 Immortals, accessible in the Dark Woods. Managed by Virgil, the Compendium functions as a living archive — recording all discoveries, tracking collected Relics and Perks, and providing insight into the world’s divine lore. It also serves as a gateway for players to understand their growth across multiple rebellion runs.

Overview

The Compendium is the Immortal's journal — a reflection of progress, understanding, and spiritual resonance. It updates automatically as players collect items, defeat enemies, and unlock systems throughout the game.

It includes detailed entries on:

• Discovered Relics
• Equipped and unlocked Perks
• Weapon traits and Weapon Mastery paths
• Lore-based entries tied to locations, events, or divine figures
• Souls earned and used during rebellion runs

Location

The Compendium is physically located in the Dark Woods, the game's main hub zone. Players can interact with it directly by approaching its glowing pedestal, often near Virgil, who serves as the guardian of divine knowledge.

Functionality

The Compendium is divided into multiple sections:

• Relics Tab – View all collected relics, their effects, and flavor text
• Perks Tab – Track discovered perks and unlockable abilities
• Weapons Tab – Record weapon usage, roles, and mastery upgrades
• Bosses and Lore – Details divine enemies like Lucifer, Adam and Eve, and their place in the cosmology
• Statistics – Display metrics on Souls gathered, deaths, revives, and other performance data

Progression Integration

Beyond lore, the Compendium plays a role in gameplay progression:

• Unlock new Perks and abilities as you discover more relics or defeat bosses
• Track weapon usage for improved Weapon Mastery growth
• Reveal hidden story elements by exploring different zones and surviving divine encounters

Some future systems may tie cosmetic unlocks or co-op enhancements to Compendium milestones.

Role of Virgil

Virgil, the sage and scholar of the rebellion, guides players through the Compendium system. He introduces its features early in the tutorial and continues to unlock new tabs or insights as players advance through areas like Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso.

Summary

The Compendium is both a record and a reward — a testament to the journey of each Immortal. As players gather knowledge, overcome divine trials, and shape their fate, the Compendium stands as proof of rebellion against judgment. Through Virgil’s guidance, it becomes the true book of the living.
