Archivist
Archivists are the Legion's revered keepers of ancient history, responsible for maintaining records of the past in order to guarantee the future.
Qualifications
Archivists must be Attuned, due to their responsibilities maintaining the rapidly aging collection of history, much of it pre-dating even the Space Defense Legion. These techniques require a combination of magical and mundane technologies, including Technoarcana, to ensure the most effective preservation of their assigned manuscripts and other relics.
Responsibilities
Archivists maintain and preserve the historical records of the Legion, in their original form when possible, but also in a variety of other mediums including tyrellium crystal, digital and paper mediums, and even metal or mineral sculptures when appropriate. While most Archivists spend their days alone within their libraries, or working closely with the Librarians assigned to their expertise, those better suited to public appearances are also tasks with the sacred duty of educating their fellow Legionnaires of the wonders of past knowledge, culture, and events.
Accoutrements & Equipment
Unlike the majority of professions across the Space Defense Legion, the Archivists wholly embrace Magic and Technoarcana, not merely as a stopgap until better solutions are found, but as necessary technologies for their role.
History
The role of Archivist dates back to the early days of Vazdimet, and likely even into the era of Fillimet, although even the Archivists themselves would have difficulty verifying that hypothesis.
As the keepers of the oldest historical records available within the Legion, and quite possibly the universe, the role of Archivist has not changed much throughout the course of history. In fact, many consider them living history, in and of themselves.
