Editing Inquisitor

'''Inquisitors''' are somewhat similar to [[Witch Hunter]]s; [[Aware]] humans fight Practitioners, only more uncompromising. 

However, unlike Witch Hunters they are not employed by [[Practitioners]] or [[Others]] and do not have the magical tools that such patrons can provide. Instead, they are organized by "outside parties" (presumably Innocent organizations), and use faith and [[Innocence]] as tools.<ref>I flipped through until I found it.  “‘Witch hunters are markedly different from inquisitors.  Where an inquisitor is organized by an outside party, the witch hunter is in the employ of practitioners or Others.  Oft used to guard a Lord’s power, maintain a balance or hunt down rogue parties.  Witch Hunters do not use faith or innocence as tools, but use gifts provided by those they serve, alongside the protections the uninitiated enjoy, as well as the ability to circumvent defenses that would ward off practitioners and Others.'”<br><br>[...]<br><br>She looked a little agitated, nervous.  “I think we can go this route.  Avoid getting into the ugliest stuff, the books on demons and whatever else.  If witch hunters and inquisitors can survive this sort of thing, maybe we can too.” - [https://pactwebserial.wordpress.com/2013/12/30 Excerpt] from [[Bonds 1.4]]</ref> Some religious groups have Inquisitors involved in them, which can make them dangerous to Practitioners.<ref>I need a strategy but I’m not sure what doors are open to me.  Some religious grounds are benign but others are dangerous.  What if someone asks along specific channels and an inquisitor is alerted? [...] If they trace this back to me and come to see me as the source of this great disappointment and a stain on their pride, the hate might be even greater than what the inquisitors might direct at me. - [https://pactwebserial.wordpress.com/2014/01/14 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 1]]</ref> Although they're not under Practitioner control, Inquisitors might be deliberately tipped off by Practitioners about dangerous groups such as [[Diabolist]] Cabals.<ref name=":0">“Cabals,” Fell commented, “are traditionally exterminated by witch hunters or similar means.  There are inquisitors in Montreal who would be very interested to hear about this.” - [https://pactwebserial.wordpress.com/2014/05/06 Excerpt] from [[Subordination 6.4]]</ref>

== Notable Inquisitors ==
* One that was on the staff of a school [[Rose Thorburn Senior]] attended in [[Montréal]].<ref>I know the risk ''I’m'' taking.  I was just in Montreal.  I went to a school that had an Inquisitor on the staff. - [https://pactwebserial.wordpress.com/2014/05/27 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 6]]</ref> [[Fell]] later mentioned that he knew of a group of Inquisitors active there.<ref name=":0" />
