The Unchained
The Unchained, the protagonists of the game, were originally Angels &mdash; algorithms of the God-Machine &mdash; who Fell. Once ephemeral, they became physical. Once unthinking beyond the task for which they'd been created, they became sentient.

And now the God-Machine wants them back.

Incarnations
Main article: Incarnation

Angels are created by the God-Machine for four general purposes, and they take form and gain abilities dedicated to those purposes. That persists once the angel falls, so demons recognize these divisions amongst themselves.

Agendas
Main article: Agenda

The Unchained have four general agendas which they choose to follow, shaping their goals and giving their new lives purpose.

Angels
The Unchained are constantly on the run from the God-Machine, and consequently its agents, the angels. Their more blatant powers draw the God-Machine's attention, and so they take refuge in human Covers to conceal themselves from undue attention.
