    This idea stems from a dictionary of lore that could be filled with lore, maps mob details, guild details, and the like. These books would be given to you at the being of a Wynn quest and Gavel quest. (This would prevent people getting it if they just pop over to Gavel).
    As I said before this tome of knowledge would contain map, mob, lore, guild, in depth player data, and the like. Yet, this data would have to be discovered.

    An Example of a lore page in the Wynnonomicon or Gaavelica would be as follows

    Lore Discovered [Percentage of Lore Discovered]

    Fictitious City: Fictitious City, once being a bandit hide out, is now a sprawling city like no other. Yet, it would take only one person to knock it down again...

    A description of how map systems would work would be a miniature map of the town and surrounding areas. A major area such as the Nivila Forest would also get one of its own. This system, however would probably not be implemented because of the interactive map on the Wynncraft site.

    Mob data would include mobs that you have discovered. A mob could be considered a every day zombie to a dungeon boss. The data would include a small piece of lore, average hit points, drops, possibly drop rates for some mobs, speed level, average spawn level, and location of spawn.

    Guild data would exclusively be your own guild's data. This data would consist of top ranking players how much money is in the bank, the name of owned territory (if any), and any other facts or important data.

    The player data would be current build data. This would include number of skill points, how many of those have been modified, speed, hit points, etcetera.

    Most of, if not all of the lore needed has been written, but not cataloged by the player. Most of the programming would be done by the developers, and the writing of the Wynnonomicon or Gavelica could be commissioned or done by moderators with writing ability.

    (WEAK) ZOMBIE (LVL: 1)
    Height: 2 meters (6 feet)

    Hit Points: 6

    Spawn Area: Ragni Lower Plains

    Damage: 1-3 points Per Hit or About 5 DPS
    (Perivious Number is Based on a lvl 1 Player: No Armor)

    Lore: The zombie is the infestation of evil magic. It is the job of you to destroy this evil force.

    (Due to a error, the representation of were the picture would be can not exist. Instead, just imagine it being directly to the left of the written data.)


    The Example above is obviously not a final product. It is merely a basic outline that can (and will) be improved on in the future.



    That is my suggestion.

    P.S. Corkus gets a pamphlet explaining what it is.

    Not trying to be that guy, but this really lacks detail. Your just saying a book with lore, maps, mob details and the like.
    Explain the format? do an example. You need much more detail for this to be a good suggestion.
    Also, i'm not completely sure if I like this. Who would write this book and be the author? Us? specify.

    Thank you for your input. This my first time doing this so there were bound to be mistakes. I will better detail the possible content of the Wynnonimicon or Gavelica.

    This is kind of just a really boring cop-out of filling the world with lore. To know the story of the world you should need to experience it, not just be able to read about it.

    Sure, lore will eventually be brought to the forums and the wiki, but there's no fun in copy-pasting from a book.

    The Lore MUST be discovered for it to be logged in your personal Wynnonomicon or Gavelica.

    So it's basically just an automatic lore notepad. You know, that's not actually that bad of an idea. It would help make the currently messy lore not so jumbled.

    Plus I quite like the idea of a section for mobs, though the other sections aren't really very interesting. A bit more detail and examples (like if you could actually create a simulated GUI and lore entry) would be good additions.

    Thank You and I will get on a mob page that will resemble what I am trying to portray.

    i love things like this, nearly all of my favorite games have a book like this, and i love just looking through and looking at all the different enemies and stuff, great idea, but I can see how it would be kind of hard to make...

    Sooo... Poke died in Wynncraft? Sure, why not. Actually... I really like that idea. It would be cool to be able to see all the stats of mobs you have killed, including the elemental damages and defences, things like that. The rest of it is sort of take it or leave it, but for some reason I really like the idea of a mob directory thing.

    I really like this idea. It would make the world of wynn easier to understand + it would also make it easier for wiki editors to find how much health and damage mobs do/have. +1

    yeah this would be cool

    mob stats and images could probably be compiled in a format straight from the YMLs

    I actually can't believe no one has thought of this.
    A key element in lots of RPGs is an info book.

    Perhaps something similar to the recently added better quest books?
    With subsections for Weapons, Armor, Mobs, Locations, and Your info?
