Sanctum Personae is your personal sanctuary within Xdripia: the place where your journey as an Xdripian Ally is tracked, your achievements are held and your cosmic identity is managed. It is authentication-gated, and unusually thoroughly so — most of its routes require an active session, which makes it the one vertical that is genuinely closed to a passing reader. That is deliberate. A space that holds one person's progress has no public version to offer.
What is inside
Behind sign-in sit a dashboard, a profile and a leaderboard. In front of it sit the account routes — login, register, password recovery and reset — which are the only pages a visitor without a session will see.
Why documentation stays outside
These guides describe what Sanctum is for, how it relates to other verticals and what boundaries apply. They do not walk through sign-in, recovery or profile management, and they never will: those are credentialed flows, and a guide that reproduced their screens would both age badly and teach a pattern worth imitating for phishing. Start from the Sanctum interface, always.
Identity across the Universe
Other verticals connect to this identity — Terminus names Sanctum as its connected identity space — while holding their own state. Being present in Sanctum does not mean being signed in everywhere, and an achievement in the Arcade is an Arcade achievement.
No page here, and no legitimate page anywhere in the Universe, asks for a recovery phrase or a password outside the sign-in form on the service itself.
In this section
- Privacy and Connected Products — What crosses between verticals, what stays put, and what a profile exposes.
- Account Recovery and Security — How recovery works in principle and the rules that keep an identity yours.
- Ally Journey and Achievements — The progression that tracks a participant's path through the Universe.
- Registering and Signing In — What the account routes are for and how to reach them safely.
- Profile and Cosmic Identity — What a Sanctum profile represents and how it relates to identity elsewhere.
- Sanctum Leaderboard — What the leaderboard ranks and how to read a standing on it.
