Database

The Database is a collection of informative articles that can be accessed by the users of Animus or Helix devices. These articles provide background information on people, locations, items, and events encountered during the exploration of genetic memories.

The database incorporated into Animus 2.03 was created by the virtual construct of Clay Kaczmarek, who took over Shaun's role when Desmond fell into a comatose state due to the events in the Colosseum Vault. As with the previous version, database entries became available when Desmond encountered the object of interest they were about.[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.[4] 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.[4]

The database incorporated into the Animus 3.0 was once more created by Shaun, who would frequently update entries with information learned while Desmond was exploring both Haytham Kenway's and Ratonhnhaké:ton's memories. Information on the various tribes of Indigenous peoples was provided by a friend of Shaun, who believed the data was for a presentation. The database also included a folder on animals, describing their behavior and the various tactics that could be used to effectively hunt them. Like the Animus 2.0 database, many files also came from Abstergo's larger records.[5]

Animus Console

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
The database incorporated into the Animus console was created by Abstergo Entertainment employees. As Liberation was designed to cast the Templars in a more positive light, important information was frequently left out, misrepresented, or outright false. To counteract this, the hacking collective known as Erudito actively worked to re-introduce the truth into the game, allowing the player to view the information from an unbiased perspective. Curiously, the documents collected are found under "Inventory" rather than under "Database".[6]

While the Abstergo Entertainment employee "Noob" explored Edward Kenway's memories, they had access to a database incorporated into the Animus Omega that consisted of drafts written by other Abstergo employees. As such, the material within them was subject to change, with people such as Melanie Lemay, Olivier Garneau, and others frequently adding in remarks. There also was another document collection called "My files".[7] Edward Kenway's Memories

For Abstergo Entertainment's Identity Project,[10] its database was stylized after a Codex Scroll.[11] Unlike the Sample 17 Project, the entries for the Caribbean had no Abstergo Entertainment employees' remarks and were unlocked by the public obtaining in-game achievements.[10] The project originally ran on the Mobile Helix Navigator,[12] but it later ran on the Animus Omega. It is unknown why some entries were later removed.[10] Montreal 2014

Various databases where available through the Helix navigator. In addition information about the subjects encountered in the simulation, the database could also collect digital documents collected from outside sources and could be edited from outside the servers, as demonstrated by Shaun Hastings.[14] The Helix navigator database had many iterations with different subject matter depending on the time period simulated and the user.[15]

While Layla Hassan used her modified Animus to explore the life of the Raven Clan member Eivor Varinsdottir during the Viking expansion through her modified Animus, she had access to a database referred to as a "Codex". Like past iterations, it was written by Shaun Hastings and also offered user-friendly Animus tutorials to help navigate the simulation.[21]
