''Source: Harker's Guide to Vampire Hunting''
Scholars, scientists, philosophers, priests. Infernal Archivists seek to understand and record the true nature of the world, and of life and death. Though their work often overlaps with those amongst the mages who make a study of alchemy, or even of necromancy, Infernal Archivists are distinct in their focus on the underlying philosophy behind their work— and in the sources they consult.
You are endlessly fascinated by the workings of the planar cosmos and have a proclivity for exploring occult methods of interplanar travel. Similarly, you are intrigued by the mechanisms of the humanoid body and seek to expand your mastery over both flesh and spirit.

|Diabolical Archivist
|Troubadour Entry
|Much of the knowledge that an Infernal Archivist collects is kept in ancient scrolls and tomes, far too rare and delicate to carry in unfamiliar environments. To compensate for this, most Infernal Archivists keep their collections in an extraplanar archive, and access the knowledge through an index that they carry with them. As an Infernal Archivist, you carry an index, likely in the form of a book, a set of cards, or a case of scrolls, which is used to cast spells and make use of Infernal Archivist abilities.
Choose a source of magic: Divine or Occult. Your ability to cast magic comes from the forbidden tomes you have collected, and the information granted to you from your infernal or divine contacts.
If you choose Divine, gain the Disciple of the Divine talent unless you already have it. If you already have it, gain +5 SP and +1 Divine Power instead. You must choose Divine Rituals as one of the Divine Magic talents granted by Disciple of the Divine. Each time you level up and spend your talent point on a talent in the Infernal Archivist track, you gain +5 SP and +1 Divine Power.
If you choose Occult, gain the Initiate of the Occult talent unless you already have it. If you already have it, gain +5 SP and +1 Occult Power instead. You must choose Occult Rituals as one of the Occult Magic talents granted by Initiate of the Occult. Each time you level up and spend your talent point on a talent in the Infernal Archivist track, you gain +5 SP and +1 Occult Power.
Regardless of your choice, INT is your magic attribute.

When you learn a new ritual corresponding with your choice of magic source from the Diabolical Archivist talent, you may add 1⁄2 your CHA to your Occult or Divine Power when determining which rituals you qualify to learn. However, if you attempt to cast a ritual beyond your typical capabilities, the costs are much higher. When attempting to cast a ritual that you have qualified for using this feature, the material cost of the ritual is doubled.

When you do this, make a magic attack against that creature’s WILL. If you miss, the change lasts until the end of their next turn. If you hit, the change is permanent.

If you teleport across a swamp, you might land near an alligator. If you teleport across a misty canyon, if the mist obscures you from seeing the ground, you might appear in open air and fall down a chasm.
