Mementos

Memento UI showing Nakshatra’s Lust, Teressa’s Envy, and Head Starter.

Mementos are leveled run powers. The in-game header calls them the remains of a fallen star’s resolve. Official Steam screenshots name Nakshatra’s Lust, Teressa’s Envy, and Head Starter at level 1, plus the Heavencrawl status tooltip. Steam news later lists Aegis Last Wish, Airys Revenge, and Laika’s Rancor with levels 1, 2, and 4. Relics are a separate map-drop family of passives; Hoarder is the achievement for obtaining every Relic at least once. The Honored One asks for three Level 5 mementos in a single expedition. Non omnis moriar unlocks all mementos.

Official Steam news still of three named mementos with level badges.

Run powers versus relics

Mementos scale with player level after a news pass that rebalanced them. That is why a Level 1 screenshot and a Level 4 news row can both be true. Relics drop over time on the map as passives; they are not the same UI header. If you are chasing The Honored One, you need three mementos at Level 5 in one expedition, which is a run goal, not a lab goal. Non omnis moriar is the all-mementos unlock and shares an official icon with The Honored One on the Steam board.

Heavencrawl is a status, not a memento: Teressa’s Envy has a 50% chance to inflict it, and afflicted enemies take MAX HP percent damage over 20 seconds. Nakshatra’s Lust makes combo finishers apply Divine Searing in a small area. Head Starter plants a 3-second bomb when you jump on enemies. Keep those sentences on this page; the Glossary only repeats the system names in shorter form.

Together Forever and The Honored One are the two memento-adjacent hunts that are not rows in the table: one is a bond-level goal with Annes and Airy, the other is three Level 5 mementos in a single expedition. Use them as run goals once the six named powers make sense.

The six named mementos

Nakshatra’s Lust, Teressa’s Envy, and Head Starter share one Steam screenshot. Aegis Last Wish, Airys Revenge, and Laika’s Rancor share one news still. That is the entire named list with official art. Together Forever asks you to bring both Annes and Airy to at least LVL 3 in an expedition, which names two more bond targets without turning them into memento rows. Laika’s Rancor at level 4 is the only first-party hint that a memento can sit at four on a live board.

Airys Revenge creates a fairy familiar that grants a periodical shield. Aegis Last Wish shields you when you kill. Head Starter is the jump-bomb. If you are building around shields versus area searing versus bombs, those three sentences are the build advice this page can honestly give. Relic passives remain unnamed here because Hoarder proves a complete set exists without publishing the set. Check Steam news if a later patch prints the relic list; do not expect this table to grow from forum hearsay.
