Revision as of 11:14, 30 August 2024

The Libro Lunarus is the holy book of the Lunar Children. The book is held with great care and only read to those that are deemed worthy. There supposedly exists only three copies of the Libro Lunarus - all of which were held within the library at The Spire prior to its destruction. Despite this, the Libro Lunarus has cropped up in several strange places throughout Johnisdead and is believed to hold some magical properties.

History

Not much is known about the origin of the Libro Lunarus. It is implied that, at some point, Hank Hubbard obtained the book and began writing beliefs pertaining to the Lunar Children within it.[1] At some point, two other copies of the Libro Lunarus were created. In 2010, Alex was sent to the Fishery where he stole a copy of the Libro Lunarus, bringing it back to the Moon Children.[2] It's implied that the Libro Lunarus possesses some magical properties, as obtaining this book seemingly led to Alex's mental decline.[3] This particular copy of the Libro Lunarus was recovered by SKM in 2011 on behalf of the Lunar Children, as seen in the video IMG_1427.

SKM is rewarded with a gas mask for his efforts. However, Drowned implies that it was possible that he was also granted a copy of the Libro Lunarus - as seen in the video this never happened.wmv. At some point, the Lunar Children began housing all three copies of the Libro Lunarus in The Spire's library. Here, only individuals that the Lunar Children deemed worthy were allowed to view the book during "Reading Sessions".[4]

A copy of the Libro Lunarus was used during the 2015 Blood Moon Ritual. This led to several Lunar Children being confused regarding the physical properties of the book, as the copy seen in bloodmoonritualpartone.wmv is a good deal larger than the other ones.[5] Later in the year, Jeremy allowed an outsider, sin_yarikh], to view an excerpt of the Libro Lunarus. This was highly forbidden and is possibly part of what led to his eventual death.[6]

After 2015, the exact movements of the Libro Lunarus are difficult to track. The book is briefly seen being held by a red-colored entity in the video Please Help in 2016. The book was also shown on the front page of Johnisdead.com in early 2017. Not long afterwards, the book appeared in the video So many still trapped. In 2020, three copies of the Libro Lunarus could be found floating behind a locked door near the library within the "Spire" Janus Room. Later on, graffiti referencing SKM's retrieval of the Libro Lunarus in 2011 were discovered in the attic of the "Spire" Janus room. Here, both the gas mask and the Libro Lunarus were seen surrounding a briefcase. Both were labelled "gift", but the Libro Lunarus was marked out.

When Dawn travelled to Tyler's house to retrieve the Helios Book, he discovered both it and the Libro Lunarus inside a briefcase in Tyler's home - as seen in the video halo.mp4. In 2022, the previously locked room in the "Spire" Janus room became accessible. The three copies of the Libro Lunarus had now been replaced by only one copy. Upon touching it, players would be trapped in a void where Jennifer would stare at them.
