The Database refers to a collection of information that could be used by any person, written and compiled by Shaun Hastings and Clay Kaczmarek, who were members of the Assassin Order, for use within the Animus virtual machine.[1][2][3][4]
Information
The database held records detailing assassination targets, allies, contacts, monuments, buildings, cities, documents, Glyphs, Rifts, Assassin Tombs, Romulus Lairs and other people, places, and events that the Assassins Ezio Auditore and Ratonhnhaké:ton came across during their lifetime, as viewed by their descendant Desmond Miles.[1][2][3][4]
Maintenance
Animus 2.01
Before Desmond Miles was put into a comatose state, the database was maintained by Shaun Hastings, and whenever Ezio saw something of interest, he could flag the database entry into Desmond's view, for the purpose of gaining greater knowledge about the entry's subject.
With the database being maintained from the outside of the Animus, Shaun or Rebecca Crane could add comments or details of their own, including mentions of Glyphs and other important items of interest in the database.
It could also help Desmond reach tombs, Glyphs and other specific places whenever he needed to.[1][2]
Animus 2.03
When Desmond fell into a comatose state due to the events in the Colosseum, he was sent into the Animus' Black Room to recover. Because of this, Shaun could no longer monitor his activities when reliving Ezio's life, with the virtual construct of Clay Kaczmarek (also known as Subject 16), taking on his role and writing database entries for Desmond to read.
Clay also added in some comments to help Desmond within the Animus, but unlike Shaun and Rebecca, he wrote it within the database entry itself.[3]
The Lost Archive, which contained some of Clay's own memories, could be accessed via the Animus Island's portals, and contained its own database. It kept track of the decipher fragments and letters as well as transcripts of voice logs.
The voice logs became available for viewing only after completing the first memory, and the logs for the decipher fragments and letters by gathering them.
Animus 3.01
With Desmond fully conscious once more, Shaun regained his role, for which he supplemented Desmond's time in the Animus 3.01 with information again. As Connor earned money through hunting, the database would also be used to provide Desmond with information on animals and how to effectively hunt them.[4]
