Lore (DTF)

Lore
Demonic Lores, like all abilities in WW games, are rated on a scale of 1 to 5. As a rule, the fourth- and fifth-dot lores require expending at least one point of Faith to function.

Demonic lore is divided into three groups: common lore accessible by all demons, House lore, which is usually only accessible by members of the appropriate House, and Earthbound lore, which is usually only available to Earthbound.

Lores usually have a low-Torment and a high-Torment effect: the low-Torment effect is generally beneficial or at least controlled, while the high-Torment effect is detrimental or out of control. Monstrous demons have great difficulty in evoking the low-Torment effects of their lores, but angelic Fallen may still use the high-Torment evocations at will, increasing their Torment as they do so. This nicely illustrates that the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

In addition to evoking one lore at a time, demons may combine several lores into a ritual. These rituals can achieve almost any imaginable effect, but they are slow and dangerous to perform.

House Lores

Each House lore is associated with a visage, an aspect of the House that originally embodied that lore during Creation. Each visage reflects its lore in some way, sometimes by making it easier to use the lore, other times by displaying principles related or important to that lore.
