Demonology
Description
You are versed in the lore of angels, demons, devas, devils and otherworldly beings. You may be familiar with the traditional Western schools of thought (black magic, diabolism, witchcraft), or possess insights into the methodologies of other cultures (Arabic, Eastern, Persian, Semitic, etc). With sufficient training in this Knowledge, you may even have access to a number of covenants, cultist practices and secret rituals. Demonology is unlike Hearth Wisdom (or Occult) in that most of what you "know" is actually true (though certainly not all of it).

- Student: Although you have a hard time separating truth from rumor, you know a few relevant facts.
- Learned: You possess basic knowledge of the nether realms and their inhabitants.
- Scholar: Your knowledge pertaining to various incarnations of the celestial and infernal is expansive and encyclopedic. You possess a considerable repertoire of rites and rituals -- which may or may not work..
- Savant: The very manner in which you perceive reality has been altered by your eldritch understanding. The breadth and depth of your knowledge rivals that of the ancient masters of the hidden arts.
- Visionary: Your command of the great secrets is beyond the ken of mere mortals. You are known to many of the greater powers who dwell Outside -- and know them in turn.
