Cryptics are one of the Factions in Demon: The Fallen. Fallen who are Cryptics spend their time unraveling and examining God's creations to see if there are any answers they can use to their advantage. Some instead use the information to look for answers as to exactly how powerful God really is. Houses that tend to have Cryptics as members include the Neberu, and to a lesser extent the Annunaki and Halaku.
