Inspector (Inspector) is the second class of the Kamael race, from level 40 to 76. It can only be obtained as a third Subclass by a Kamael character. From level 76, the third class is Judicator.

Inspector is the Kamael support class. Its buffs affect the party: Appetite for Destruction (1476) instantly raises P. Atk., critical rate and critical damage, Vampiric Impulse (1477) lets party members absorb HP from damage to enemies, Soul Harmony (1480) restores the party's MP. The other side of the class is curses that trigger when the enemy takes damage: Thin Skin (1483), Enervation (1484), Spite (1485), Mental Impoverish (1486).
