They want to be able to collect information about the events of the world as they see it from their point of view. For instance: Nodes leveling up, they want to be able to take that information down and be the one to distribute it.

World history

Some of the following information has not been recently confirmed by the developers and may not be on the current development roadmap.

The history of each server will be tracked and visible to players in a node's library.

• This design may have changed.

We're gonna keep track of the history of the world so that we can tell people the story up to the current day. A player who's brand new, who's come in at the six-month mark can take a look at each server, what each server has done, how each server has tackled the storyline; and they can decide for themselves what community they want to join; what version of the world that they want to take part in. – Jeffrey Bard

• Scribes may be able to collect and record information about the events of the world as they see it from their point of view.

Libraries

Academic node building.

At Village (stage 3) the academic node's unique building is the Library.

• Information about the world will be presented directly to players through the world map UI. Previously the Library was used to access information about the world, such as the history of significant narrative events, locations of gatherable resources, dungeons, and POIs.

In the past we talked about having a library that was capable of facilitating players exchanging information for map data like that, but we've moved a little bit more in a direction of just presenting that information up front to the player, because travel is such a meaningful portion of the game and we don't have fast travel. So, I think that for Alpha-2 what's planned is that we're going to be showcasing the intricate details of services offered at these node locations from just a UI presentation standpoint within the map. – Steven Sharif

Some of the following information has not been recently confirmed by the developers and may not be on the current development roadmap.

Players can use the Library to access information, including (but not limited to) the following:

• Runic power stones for armor.
• Common armor and weapon recipes (level 25 and under).

Languages

Languages in Ashes of Creation may refer to:

• Racial and geographical influences on nomenclature in the lore.
  • NPC races influencing the way NPCs speak in terms of their dialogue trees.
  • Language-specific lexicons in the game from a lore and immersion standpoint. These do not have real player-to-player implications.
• Localization/Internationalization of the game client for specific regions.
