The Rules


1. Follow Gaia's own T.o.S. and keep things within the PG13 guidelines.

2. Do not use any form of chatspeak. Try to use proper grammar to the best of your ability.

3. Do not bump or stretch the thread. We'd like to keep the thread tidy and easy to read through. Make conversation instead of posting emotes or "bump" to get the thread moving.

4. Do not flame. This goes for the users, the thread itself, and other threads.

5. Do not god mode.

6. Respect the Sins. They are the moderators of the thread, and have equal power amongst themselves. Naturally, this doesn't mean you lose your freedom of speech and opinion.

7. Do not PM anyone within the thread asking for donations or art. You will likely be added to the users ignore list and there's nothing a Sin can do to change that.

8. Certain words are offensive. If you are told not to use it, then don't. Simple as that.

9. Keep the real life drama outside of the thread. Take it to PM, if you must. Leave the mess at the door or the thread or you threaten being banned on sight.

10. Until you state the sin you wish to fall under and you are accepted, your character is deemed mortal. This means you must face the trials without your magic, skills, powers, and the like. None of it will work.

11. When you pick your Sin in character, you must quote the user you're wishing to serve.

12. Lastly, please do not quote anything off of the first page. Now get to joining!

Sin History


Come see a glimpse into our amazing history from the original sinners to our honorary members and some of our greatest events.


Honored and Never Forgotten

"Friends and prayers are priceless treasures
Beyond all monetary measures,
And so I say a special prayer
That God will keep you in His care."


-Mistaken-Creation- our dearest Kimberly a.k.a. Kimi. Was given life and brought into this world on December 7, 1989 a wonderful day in all of history. She was taken from us on October 6, 2009 by cancer. She will always ben in our hearts and in our dreams. The memories we had will never fade for she watches over this thread and castle along with all of the other faiths. Remember her. Love her. Never forget all the joy that she brought. And most of all respect her for who she was and what she stood for.



~~~



A little about the other six original sins, as told by Pride.

"Lust, was an angel, though fallen as she was. She was the greatest and at times was far worse in her ways of getting back at people then myself or Wrath. She was the sweetest of us and was also the one who called many of the shots. Never, take her name or sin in vain. It is grounds for my personal destruction of you. To honor her, the Sin of Lust may never be male.

Wrath, what more can I say. He brought new meaning to the sin itself and the words backstab, cutthroat, b*****d, mass-murder, psycho, and warmonger. He was one to slaughter first and ask questions later. Always had a pick a fight with new people and remove any who stepped a single toe out of line. A hero among the damned if I do say so myself.

Gluttony, was a fun loving girl. Far to skinny to do much other then make you eat or not eat. Though damn I shall say she knew how to put food and people away. That was one mouth you wished to stay away from at all times. She rocked so hard that one time we thought she broke Gaia for a whole day. Was a glitch with the site but eh, she gets that point.

Sloth, was a nice girl. Always quite and plotting in her own ways. She would rather sit there and watch Wrath beat the snot out of you rather then do it her self. She would even go so far as to tell Wrath that those that she did not like had called Gluttony fat behind her back. The acts which follow I dare not utter for they were that...awesome.

Greed, oh lord...talk about mister money bags. He was the first of us to have a Halo and lord it over us all. Wrath beat him for it and then after Wrath, I did. It was rather fun. The whole month of April used to be Pick on Greed Month, though that died out after he left Gaia.

Envy was none other than Sister Yuki. Such a kick a** little fire ball and proud mother of a bouncing baby boy. It's not wise to mess with this little green eyed devil, people have been found missing random body parts for a reason. I hear her jar collection has grown over the years.

Out of these original members, six of us are still alive. Yes only six out of seven, you heard right. Gluttony, she was killed in a shooting. Wrong place wrong time, that is all I will say."

As you seem to walk through veiled air into a strange and outlandish world, off in the far distance looms a large mass, most likely a mountain or city of sorts. It is dark and seems to touch the sky and the clouds over the very top of it seem black like smoke or ink. The clouds seemed to swirl as if hiding much for view.

You find yourself being slightly drawn to it by some force. Could it be the mystery of the unknown? Some form of magic in binding, or the strange air about the world you have unwilling and unwittingly stepped into? You look to your left and see other far off lands, then you look to your right and see more lands so strange and far off that the only thing that even remotely looks normal and unconfused is the green grass below your feet. You look behind you and notice that the veiled spot you walked through is no longer there. You are unable to turn back, so you must go on ward, but to where you seem to ask yourself.

A strange musical and taunting laugh can be heard some place far off and yet so close as if it where a voice so faint on the wind that seemed to blow every now and then. You find yourself looking all about and then turning to find at your feet a slightly worn path that seems to lead to the dark mass far off in the distance that you noticed before. That same force seemed to lead you on down the road, and closer to that mass looming in the distance. Not too long after you have started down the path does it end at a very strange and nightmarish looking forest, though everything seems to be normal something makes the hairs on the back of your next stand on end.

As you look at the forest it seems normal, as normal can be. Lush green trees and many different wild flowers blooming all about deep within its plant walls. The seems and sound seem to remind you of your world, a world in which you fear you may never return. The forest seems so inviting so you might as well step in and go forward once again.

Those who are skilled at seeing the truth of things out of the corner of their eyes may see something different. You try and use a skill or some magic to show you the truth of the forest. It fails. You come to the conclusion that your powers do not work in this odd land. You will have been shocked as what you catch out of the corner of your eye as you walk beyond the first two trees. The forest is not at all what it seems. The trees though many have some leaves on them, but not green, are twisted up at the sky as it trying to live through that which causes them pain and suffering. It is as if your worst nightmares of have come in what you fear your own worlds lush plant life in becoming.

The tree bark looks like rotten or old skin from those who have long since past for your life and on to the next. Their leaves though mostly black are sometimes different in color as you notice a tree or two a little ways off has bright red leaves while a another even further in has green and more have others such as purple, and pink, even one that seems to make you sick to look at it. Crimson, the color of blood.; you feel slightly ill and wish to leave the place you now know to be a false image. Though as you look back ahead of you, you notice that all seems normal as you think it should and you fear you are slowly losing your mind and seeing nothing but nightmares.

A bird flies by over your head fairly high up in the air out of your reach. You keep your eyes on the forest in front of you, as you do not want to imagine what that might have been. Indeed you are wise to do so, the fiend flew off without giving you a second though as it was sleepy and wished to nest without a full stomach.

Sounds that seem so normal and peaceful just as they fade away seem unnerving to you somehow, and twice you could have sworn that you heard a dying scream from something slightly unless if not less. A few times as you have rounded a tree or come through a bush you thought you felt something like the plant make a move for you with pure malice of some kind. This only quickens your now beating heart and your peace so as to be free from this strange seemingly enchanted wood that you have mistakenly entered.

As you reach the heart of the forest that has sprung up all about you. You notice that the ground seems to get wet and muddy. Before you is the starting of a swamp. Still it is nothing you can't handle so you move on, with a clear mind so as not to fall victim to the dangers of it.

As you make your way from bog to bog careful not to fall in the water and watch as a small snake, or so you may think, crosses your path and hardly gives you an after thought. You started to feel sick again, and are thinking that is must be the fumes from some of the bubbling pools you pass by now and then.

Indeed you are right for those with gifted sight or powers of their own will have already seen the water is far darker than it should be and has taken a purple like hue to its deep unforgiving ways. The bubbling pools seem to have let loose a small miasma that, after extended periods of time, confounds the mind, causes hysteria, makes beings see what was never really there, and after far longer, will slowly kill the insides by shutting down the organs one by one.

Those with their powers or different sight would have seen that what you have mistaken for a snake was indeed one of a different race and size all together. The Calu, a demon snake, is known for his temper and deadly strike though it holds no poison in its fangs. It can still snap a man's neck in less than half a second.

The swamp is poisoned and things of a far darker power lurk below is purple poisoned waters, just waiting for you to make the mistake of disturbing the waters surface. You would soon find yourself in a watery grave or in the belly of beat long forgotten by man. You have almost made it to the end or so you seem to think.

High above you in the trees seems to be the gossamer webs of little spiders all entwined with a strange pink flower whose petals make the shape of a heart. You think to yourself how lovely those would be and wonder if you dare to climb a tree and take one. Their scent floating down so soft, and inviting. However something made a ripple in the water to your right and you seem to snap back to your own self and move on forgetting about the flowers that gossamer webs hung to.

And rightly so that you did, for no sooner would you have touched the flower known as The Devil's Advocate, then you would have fallen victim to the poisonous bite of a strange species of spider known as Dalwii, and their spider queen Kalin. How lovely you would have been dressed, clothed in the finest silk the swamp had to offer as the queen feasted upon what was left of your body, for no one touches her flowers and walks away alive, for long.

Through the endless forest and the never ending swamp you have past and you now have come back to solid ground. You are surprised as to what you see before you not so far off. It takes your breath away and it is some time once again before you are able to think correctly.

There looming before you as it did when you first set eyes on it is a castle far unlike any other. The art works on the outside walls where so intricately done that one would think the whole thing was nothing more then paint on air. So majestically was it all done and placed together that it seemed to bring only one word to the beholder's mind. "Perfection" in its purest form. Though upon closer look the castle seemed to have a far darker look on things, though for all its glory one would never be able to tell.

As you walk closer, almost unable to keep your breath, you come to the realization that what you are looking at is indeed not a castle but a wall without a door. It seems to span the corners of your vision, the boundaries of the swamp and the forest itself and go on forever. You would think to climb it but some of the artwork seems sharp and you would never want to defile something so grand as this masterpiece in all of your short lived life.

Though those with power would be far wiser to keep well away from the wall as the swamp itself would seem safer. So much magic was poured into the making of the object you see before you. For magics so dark and fouls to that of everlasting light. Things to render you helpless against those that have become part of the wall itself for indeed from time to time the works of art moved as if they were living, for in their own right they were indeed alive. Poor souls lost to the ways of the world and not yet stained enough to fall into Hell itself, overtaken by perfection at a costly price. Though they could be called souls no longer, more like living shadows of sins from the past. The dead of the dead as they were rightly called. One of the first keepers of the grounds beyond and about.

A closer look above would tell any that though they might have made it to the top unharmed there was no way over the wall itself, as countless domes, barriers, wards, enchantments, arrays, and net magics were built there to keep out any and all who were deemed unwelcome. Though confused as you may have been there was that same laughter as before, a small space along the wall to the west seemed to have opened up.

You make your way through and find yourself under those looming clouds like before. Before you stands a castle much like the wall, though the only hint that t was not another wall like the one before was the large wooden door done just like the wall behind you but in wood and the fact that you could see light from a few windows here and there of what you could see.

Before you stands a castle, that takes your breath away. You stand in aw as this castle reaches to the clouds and above. The dark clouds swirl at the seemingly endless top of the center spire. As your eye wanders about in the sky you happen to notice there are other towers that seemed to spring up out of the main building before you. There are six outer one and then central spire made twelve though there were smaller ones that could be seen still coming up out of the central body of the castle. Some had bridges running between them in some form of web work.

The castle's outer walls where done in the same form of artwork as the behind you as it only served to add to the over wheeling effect of perfection. Above the giant wooden door stood seven different states, that seemed to be grading it in some evil way. Each was different in its own fashion.

The first of the seven was in the center of the seven and seemed to command respect as it was the first that drew your attention to it. The eyes were a deep purple and it was cloaked in a cloak that went down to its feet, while a hood over cast everything about the face by those eyes that seemed to bore straight into one's soul and look at for the pride in one's heart.

The second, on the left, was a monstrous female demon whose fangs where blood red, and her lips where crimson in color. Flames carved from stone licked at her feet as they were decked out in armored boots. The body as a whole was decked out in armor fit for seven world wars. It seemed to scream murder to the eyes of the beholder, and struck fear into the hearts of humanity, as wrath seemed to pool all about it.

The third was a slender female figure was on the left side of the center statues. She wore a long dress that had a slit that ran all the way up to a more revealing spot. She had long nails that were painted a deep blue and her dress was the same way. She seemed so nice and inviting as she struck lust in the hearts of all who beheld it.

The fourth statue was a slightly tall male. It seemed to be decked out in all f the most gaudy and rich things someone who had a lot of money would be seen wearing. The skin was golden and shone brightly when the light, or what little there was, caught it at the right angle. It seemed to hold an air of greed about it in all is golden glory.

The fifth was a figure whose gender could not be guessed. It was quite hidden by the shadows that were cast from the other four. Though the green mask, seemingly made of emerald or jade that donned its almost blank face seemed to invoke the deep sad feelings of envy into those who looked upon it.

The six was a female figure who was far too skinny for their own good it seemed and yet had food all about her. A content smile across her lips as if she was full and knew it all too well, but her eyes held a hunger far greater than any being known to humanity. The food seemed to give off an orange color when looked at from certain ways. When one looked at it one would feel slightly hungry and would fall prey to feelings of gluttony.

The seventh and last figure was a woman again covered in sheets and leaned against pillows in a way. She seemed to be blissfully asleep and lost in a world of dreams. So soft did she look there all wrapped up in those silky sheets and soft feathered pillows. One's eyes would get too heavy the longer they looked at it and soon would fall asleep if they did not snap back to themselves. Sloth was a sin all were guilty of form time to time and this stone being seemed to bring back those dreams to the beholder's mind.

You walk forward as if to open the door and can not help but hear faint whispers in seven different voices. You pull once, the door not giving. You push once the door still not giving. You look at it for a moment or so. You can see fine words written in elegant writing of old and you read them to yourself.

"Utter thy name, and confess thy sin, then the way will open within."


You think for a while, not knowing the meaning of the confusing words. Until at last it comes to you. You speak your true name and admit what has been in your heart sense you were brought into this world. There was the sound of many locks coming undone as the door swings open.

Before you is a long hallwayy, made of stone with the same art as seems custom to the castle. The air however in front of you, shimmers like when before you walked through to this strange world of wonder and fear. You walk through and find yourself deep in the castle.

Above you written in the same writing as the front door is a sign. It reads as you speak to yourself allowed and your voice echos back off the walls of the large and long hall ways.

"Welcome to Castle Sin."

As you wander through the halls and various rooms of the first few floors and come to yet another stairway that seems to be the same as the other ones you have gone up, you think how many rooms and floors does this castle have? How can such a thing have been made and by who? still you make your way up the never ending stairs and come to a large room, with different things all set about in it.

You look about and see many hall ways that seem to lead into and from the room. It was far larger then you thought as first as you look up and notice that you are quite unable to see the ceiling. It was bad enough that you had already lost count of how many floors you had gone up, was this one serenity seven or seven hundred and seventy seven? You just shrug away that thought and look about some more.

To your left by the main entrance which was the large hallway, almost a foyer, that you came out of was a place set to be some kind of bar or cafe'. Puzzled you still look about as your eyes adjust to the flame lit room. The room, though large, seems warm in the way it is placed together. Certain things to sit on and a few tables placed here and there so nothing seems out of place. The only thing that bothers you is that you can not see the far wall or the end of the room all together. As to solve this problem on your own you walk a little farther in, and are surprised to see seven large chairs all in different shapes and sizes lined up a ways away from the far wall.

Each had its own theme to it as you noticed and they were all overly done in their own strange fashion. There was the largest and tallest one in the dead center of them which stood a clear foot above a few of the remaining six and in some cases a clear three feet above others. Four were on one side and three on the other. You wonder why there were three to the right and four to the left, but that didn't stop you from wondering what they were for and how the hell this place came to be.

By now you are far too tired to care, and the place seems to be empty so you find yourself a nice place on some pillows off in the right corner and fall asleep lightly, keeping your weapon ready in case you were wrong and the place was in fact not as empty as you thought.
