The Relic Raiders are a band of mythical pillagers that invade the wiki for the priceless knowledge it contains. While their very existence is yet to be confirmed, the footprints - so to speak - of their actions are quite visible. This phenomenon started back on June 15, 2020. After spending some time in the wiki, [[Anna Grings]] decided to review on the history of [[Zer0]] which was located at the end of the wiki. Upon arriving there, she was horrified to find that the entire section on Zer0 had vanished, leaving only the title as a grim reminder of the entity that once plagued NSA. | The Relic Raiders are a band of mythical pillagers that invade the wiki for the priceless knowledge it contains.

Despite the eerie occurrence, President [[Brooke Foster]] (at the time she was still Student Council Welcome Committee Leader) accessed the backup drive and quickly restored the section to the wiki. She, along with several others, theorized that a student had accidentally deleted the section and that a message needed to be announced. While this was certainly not the first time a student had accidentally dislodged something from the wiki in [[FirstClass]] (the platform NSA used before Microsoft Teams), this did take place only six days after the entire 'P' section had also been mysteriously deleted. So while technically the Relic Raiders were first observed on June 9, 2020, it was not until June 15 that people began to view this as a legitimate threat. And it was on June 26, 2020 that StuCo Welcome Committee Leader Brooke Foster officially restated that deleting articles from the wiki was illegal and warned everyone to cease such activities. The situation appeared to be dealt with leading [[ | Despite the eerie occurrence, President [[Brooke Foster]] (at the time she was still Student Council Welcome Committee Leader) accessed the backup drive and quickly restored the section to the wiki.

Upon making the statement, sections of the wiki ceased to be deleted leading many to believe that this really was just a misguided student who did not know better. After the transition of power, there was another cited witness of someone having deleted the wiki, exactly a month after the June 15 incident. This time it was the 'N' section that had been wiped off the face of the Earth. Again, it was Anna Grings who reported the incident - this time to the new StuCo Welcome Committee Leader, Holly Rogers - saying that another section had vanished. This was reported on July 15, 2020 and was quickly dealt with by restoring the data via the backup drive. It should be noted that it was Anna Grings who reported these findings on the June 9, June 15, and July 15 incidents. This disturbance was minor as it was both quickly resolved as well as the fact that it had taken place in the midst of summer break leaving many uninformed that it ever even happened in the first place. However, there were some who were beginning to see a trend, a trend they most certainly wished to stop. | Upon making the statement, sections of the wiki ceased to be deleted leading many to believe that this really was just a misguided student who did not know better.
