Department of Subspace Communications Archive
Codex
The Codex serves as the central archive for lore, factions, technologies, historical records, restricted files, and expanding reference material from the First Contact universe.
Archive Overview
As the First Contact archive expands, the Codex will collect and organize the larger structures behind the story: governments, factions, ships, systems, technologies, conflicts, personnel, and classified fragments too large to live only inside the books themselves.
Some entries are fully accessible. Others remain restricted pending future transmissions, publication clearance, or archive expansion.
