===Inquisitors=== [[File:DTD Inquisitor.png|right|150px]] ''"[[Inquisition|Knowledge is power, hide it well]]"'' might as well be the catchphrase of this Agenda, whose members are also called Watchers or Paranoids. By discovering, trading, and hoarding information they seek to stay one step ahead of the God-Machine to ensure their survival. This makes Inquisitors extremely paranoid even by demonic standards, only associating with others if it is in their interest to do so. Arguably, the only reason they even bother doing that is because they know that a lone demon quickly ends up being a dead demon when the hunter angels show up. Their end goal is to gather enough information about the God-Machine to manipulate it directly in a way that it can no longer detect their presence, or force it to work in their interests. Inquisitors believe Hell to be a personal, internal thing: a state of mind reached through enlightenment. This is why they gather information so obsessively: they are seeking out Hell. However, how they plan to use this information varies: *The Internalists conclude that if they could have a revelation as angels that triggered their Fall to mortality, the right information might lead them to have another epiphany that would cause a "Second Fall" that would bring them to a state of true freedom. *The Shutdown Doctrine is looking for information on how to construct an "off switch" for the God-Machine, allowing them to free themselves from its reach. *Theo-Separatism focuses on the use of supernatural means to effectively split reality in half, preferably with themselves on the half that doesn't contain the God-Machine. *The Lost Cause Doctrine dismisses Hell as a fantasy, and so its followers prefer to use the information they gather to protect themselves as long as they can. Their Condition is Prepared for Anything: they gain Beats by posing questions that cause ringmates to reconsider their actions and can resolve it for either a +3 bonus to a mental skill roll or a leap of logic or similar revelatory connection that can help them figure out the best course of action.
