In Act 1, we come across quite a few books, but also quite a few items like inks and feathers/quills.

If that not already planned, I think it would be nice to have a journal/diary (or craft one).

This could be used in different ways :

  • For RP reason : writing a journal/diary in character.
    • This journal could be more personal than the "Quest Journal" and allow to go into more details.
    • This could help people :
      - Characterized their Tav
      - Immersed them-self
      - Stay true to their Tav
      - Let their Tav theorize about their companions or what's happening
      - ...
  • For RP/practical reason : setting personal objectives or making note of their discoveries.
    • This could be done in character or in a very meta way.
    • This could help people :
      - Who are ditz like me and easily forget things.
      - Who like being organized and taking note (TO-DO lists galore ❤️).
      - ...
      I often think things like "It would make sense to do this first because X and Y" or "I should bring this type of spell when I do that".
      However, I often forget 😅

Yes, they are external tools that could serve similar functions (pen and paper, notepad++, spreadsheets).
Don't worry, I'm using those like there's no tomorrow.
However, having it in the game would help in term of practicality and immersion.


The implementation could be fairly simple. I have in mind the "Book and Quill from Minecraft (more or less).

This would include :
  • A cancel/exit button
  • A save/exit button
  • A Text Box/Editor : just a Text Cursor and the ability to write is enough. More is welcome (formatting, copy/cut and paste) but not necessary.
  • Adding a new page when the current page is full (also indicating the # of the page).


The UI is almost already existing (just a blank book) and allowing users to add their input shouldn't be too hard. After all, we are already able to select the name of save files (❤️), Profiles and Tavs.


"Dear Diary,
Today, I've survived the crash of a Nautiloid Ship after getting knocked out by some random rock.
And I would like to say...Ouchie.

Tav."

This silly entry has made me think that people could also have fun sharing their journals/diaries online 😄.
