Borderlands Codexery — Data & Quality

We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Last full accuracy audit: 2026-08-07 · 30 entries checked · 14 flagged · 26 issues confirmed · 14 corrected · 12 still open

Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Roland — Roland's canonical skill trees in Borderlands 1 and Borderlands 2 do not provide specific passive bonuses for SMGs; his primary weapon specialty is Assault Rifles via the 'Barrage' tree.

Roland — The claim that Roland has a passive skill buffing shield capacity and recharge rates refers to the 'Resilience' skill from Borderlands 1, which he does not possess in Borderlands 2 (where his death occurs), as his BL2 skills focus on Turret damage, Ammo regene

Wilhelm — Wilhelm was a playable character in Borderlands 2 (via the 'Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary' DLC and as a boss in the original game), not just an NPC boss in the Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2.

Wilhelm — Wilhelm did serve as a primary antagonist in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, appearing as a major villain whose betrayal of Handsome Jack occurs during that game's timeline.

Tiny Tina — Roland died during the events of Borderlands 2 Act 1; he does not serve as her guardian in Tiny Tina's Wonderlands which is set after his death.

Claptrap — Claptrap was voiced by Edward James Olmos in the 2024 Borderlands film, not Clayton English; there was no 2023 Borderlands film featuring Jim Rash.

Claptrap — The entry incorrectly omits that Claptrap is playable in the Borderlands 2 DLC 'Claptastic Voyage', listing him as playable only in The Pre-Sequel.

Tiny Tina's Boomers — First Appearance listed as 'Borderlands 2 (Bunkers and Badasses DLC)' is incorrect; Tiny Tina appears in the base campaign of Borderlands 2 prior to the DLC's release.

Tiny Tina's Boomers — Claim that Ashly Burch voiced the 'Bane,' a cursed gun, is factually unsupported; there is no canonical record of her voicing a weapon by this name with those mechanics in the Borderlands series.

Vault Hunters — Intro incorrectly lists Class Archetypes (Gunzerker, Siren) as 'class skills' rather than character classes with distinct Action Skills.

Vault Hunters — Did You Know incorrectly defines 'Vault Hunter' as a title earned only upon successfully opening a Vault, whereas canon applies the designation to mercenaries hunting Vaults regardless of success.

Lilith's Sirens — The entry claims the source material does not mention Angel; however, Angel is explicitly named and featured as a central character (the voice on the radio) in Borderlands 1, though her status as a Siren is revealed later.

Lilith's Sirens — In Borderlands 1, Phasewalk provides invisibility and movement speed but does not deal elemental damage directly; attacking while phased was not possible in the original game, making 'elemental damage via Phasewalk' inaccurate for this title.

Calypso Twins — The entry states the Calypso Twins first emerged on and are native to Promethea; canon establishes they originated on Eden-6, where the Children of the Vault cult was founded before expanding their influence across the galaxy.
