==Capabilities==
The user, either innately or through training, is a master of demonology, the study of demons. They research the behavior, abilities, weaknesses, and anatomy of demons to pursue the documentation and categorization of them.
Demonology is the branch of theology that deals with the nature, origin, and activities of demons. It also examines the methods and practices of exorcism, the ritual of expelling evil spirits from people or places. Demonology is based on various sources, such as the Bible, the writings of the Church Fathers, and the testimonies of those who claim to have encountered demonic forces. Demonology is not a unified or coherent discipline, but rather a collection of diverse and sometimes contradictory views and traditions. Some demonologists regard demons as fallen angels who rebelled against God, while others see them as manifestations of human fears or psychological disorders. Some demonologists seek to combat and destroy demons, while others attempt to communicate and negotiate with them.
Demonology is a controversial and often misunderstood field of study, as it raises ethical, theological, and epistemological questions about the nature of evil and the limits of human knowledge.
