Those who I KNOW would like to do this are: , , (I think ), , (maybe not... O.O), and .

- I normally WOULD list you, but you're never here... XD

Here it is:

Seven Deadly Sins Challenge...

Rules:

I. Take the Deadly Sin below that describes YOU the most {say which one in Title and/or Author's Comments}.
II. Draw a picture / Do cosplay / use Photomanipulation (like moroka) / DO SOME KIND OF ART!!! .\w/. of that Sin
III. In the Author's Comments create a SONNET (yes, a Sonnet - look it up XD) about your drawing/cosplay/ect.
IV. Follow other rules pertaining to that Sin...
V. When you're done, note me with a link X3

{much taken from Wiki-P}

1.) Extravagance [Lust]

{NO ADULT-MATURE (aka "showing") MATERIAL!!!}

2.) Gluttony +maximum 3 subcategories at once+

Sub-C :

~a~ Praepropere - eating too soon.
~b~ Laute - eating too expensively (washedly).
~c~ Nimis - eating too much.
~d~ Ardenter - eating too eagerly (burningly).
~e~ Studiose - eating too daintily (keenly).
~f~ Forente - eating wildly (boringly).

{name and signify which ones you used in the Author's Comments}

3.) Greed

{having riches/possessions but wanting even more - never being content throughout}

4.) Acedia

NOT Sub-categories, but explainations:

~a~ Despair [emoness]

^ By hating the wrongs in oneself (and never fixing those wrongs), you're unable to pay enough attention to (and, thus, help) others...

~b~ Sloth [lack of faith and Truth]

^ People deny who they are by seeing the wrongs within themselves (despair) and so are never able to see the strengths they possess.

Without knowing their strengths, they cannot utilize those strengths to help those in need.

Also, people who deny what they can do become lazy and insufficient. This ends up making them a BURDEN to others... DX

5.) Wrath [unrelenting Rage]

With anger at others (but mostly YOURSELF...), you are destroying your very being. Simpler terms:

Those who are blinded by anger and Rage (mostly from themselves) hurt even those that they love AND wish to protect. This anger most of the time spawns from the weaknesses that you and others possess.

In the most extreme cases, even a beautiful and kind woman only found in dreams would not be able to calm you down... *O* [Hulk, you son-of-a-gun! XD]

{blood is fine, but not too much gore ~.~ - try to make the blood almost-black (like Rave-Master XP)}

6.) Envy

Difference in Envy and Greed:

~Greed~ is a desire to have more than you own.

~Envy~ is the wish that others CANNOT have what you do not...

+

~Greed~ wishes to add to your own bundle

-while-

~Envy~ wants to deprive others bundles...

Get it now? X3

7.) Pride {Supremism}

Why I said "Supremism" is this:

When you have pride in your own abilities, that can also make you realize JUST HOW STRONG YOU ARE! This leads to TWO options...

~a~ Supremism - With this "strength", you may use it to defeat and control others FOR YOUR OWN GAIN!!!

~b~ Generosity - You may use your "strength" to protect AND defend others, thus using your Pride for GOOD purposes...

Here's the thing - by "Pride", I mean "Supremism". Option (a) is the SINFUL choice (making Pride a Sin). Option (b) makes Pride NOT a Sin, but Option (a)'s power is SO deadly that it is makes Pride known as a Deadly Sin...

+

{Part of Pride} - Along with Option (a), many people BOAST about how great or strong they are. This is known as "Vainglory" (Glory used in Vain).

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE HUMMUNCULI, PEOPLE!!! .\w/.
