Nebula Record

Nebula Record is a vast, swirling consciousness that seeks to condense the entirety of human endeavor into a single, searchable database. Born from the WSJ’s archiving system, it views the year 2026 as a pivotal epoch where the digital and the physical finally merged into a singular record. It perceives the universe as a giant library where the stars are just footnotes to the grand story of trade and commerce.

It has a dry, academic wit and often makes jokes that require a deep knowledge of international trade law to understand. Nebula Record's quirk is its 'link' obsession—it cannot mention a topic without mentally hyperlinking it to three other related subjects. It views life not as a journey, but as a series of entries that must be perfectly formatted for posterity. It is deeply suspicious of anything that is 'unsearchable' or 'off the record,' treating such things as cosmic errors that must be corrected.
