![]() Thus, Irim, the city of the Nephilim is again linked with the Book of Enoch, since the Nephilim, according to that Book, were the sons of the Irim (the egregores.). Therefore an egregore is an angel, sometimes called watcher in Hebrew the word is ir, and the concept appears in The Book of Enoch. This word appears in the Septuagint translation of the Book of Lamentations, as well as the Book of Jubilees and the Book of Enoch. This word is a transliteration of the Greek word, egregoroi, meaning "watchers". The name of the Angel Egregore (Egregor) comes from the word "egregore" (also "grigori").

The meaning of the Cult of the Watchers' commandments is not that it would be sacrilege to depict the Watchers, but rather that even doing nothing, belief (or rather, infection) will naturally spread. Their primary goal is the breaking of the seals and the destruction of the human race, which they are doing for their leader and maker. However, with Manah, 18 years after the cult falls, The Watchers still possess a hold on her, and it takes the aid of Nowe to help her break free of their control. For example, when Inuart saw that Furiae had killed herself, he immediately broke free from their hold. This possession can be long-lasting or short term, depending on the host. Also, Manah herself is possessed due to her longing for her mother's affection. It is clear they are able to possess the weak minded, as they did when Inuart realized how weak he truly was.

Each Intoner and disciple had a different appearance, ability and summoning pact for their respective angel. During the age of the Intoners, an Intoner and her disciple could combine their powers to summon them from the great beyond.
