Cryptids (at least only place I see them) are onsters and such from a cartoon called Secret Saturdays.
Very Pulpish.

IMHO I love Hidden Lore. The very fact it doesnt have a default helps to set it apart.
And its designed to be restricted by the powers that be.
In a Fantasy game I encourage Occultism but some of it is not just wrong but outright lies put out by the bad guys. Higher skill can help thin out the lies but still wont reveal secrets.
Hidden Lore is what I give the Wizards and Vampires and some priesthoods.
