Editing Demon: The Descent (section)

===Analysts===

The Eyes are perhaps the most obscure of the Incarnations- so obscure that sometimes even ''they'' don't know they're Analysts. As angels, their role was to gather information and data for the God-Machine, overseeing the operations of other angels and reporting back with any relevant data. As a rule, they're normally sent alongside another angel; they might accompany a Destroyer in order to determine more effective ways of killing things, a Guardian to test the effectiveness of its tactics, a Messenger to report on its signal-to-noise ratio, or a Psychopomp to time its construction or travel. Some are tasked with doing more than just observing; they're instead ordered to collect data more directly, via taking samples or measurements. This can lead them to Fall when they begin drawing conclusions with the data they collect instead of simply reporting it.

Some take in more data than they can handle and Fall when it overwhelms them, others become distracted from their original goal to follow something that caught their attention. "Action envy" can also lead to a Fall when a frustrated Analyst gets sick of only being able to watch and wants to start ''doing'' things for a change. And sometimes, the catalyst for a Fall is simple curiosity about what might happen if it fudged the numbers it was meant to collect ever so slightly...

Analysts' demonic forms are appropriately unobtrusive, the better to observe uninterrupted. To aid this, they typically possess stealth abilities or mental abilities that divert attention away from them; a form of propulsion that lets them escape quickly or move unnoticed is also common. Rather than specializing in a given Embed type, Analysts excel in the use of Exploits and Gadgets (essentially an object with an Embed or Exploit "installed" into it for specialized uses).
