Wasteland notes

Revision as of 20:02, 4 June 2021 by Unknown user (talk) (→‎Additional Symbols: add decoded model image)

The coded notes are a series of notes found in a small underground shelter in Wasteland.

They are found taped all over a wall, arranged vaguely like a pair of wings. Below the table next to the wall is a white Mörkö mask model with a "dirty" skin.

  • Zuntti-avatar.jpg Zuntti said we have to use everything we know already for this.
  • There is T.50=P which doesn't fit into the key table, but 0x50 is the ASCII code for P. Blue Question.svg It could also mean that the "truth" is incomplete can be further expanded.

The hint

  On 15/01/2018 at 14:18 UTC, Zuntti posted this image in the #spoilers channel of the INFRA discord server. The image's filename is "Truth.png".
