Dragon Sin

A power that steals the very essence of his foes, born from an immortal's greed.

The Sin of Greed is one of the seven legendary titles held by a member of the original Seven Deadly Sins, and is most famously associated with Ban, the Fox's Sin of Greed. This title and its associated power are not tied to any biological transformation or dragon-related ability. Unlike other sins that manifest through weapons or external magic, Ban's sin is intrinsically linked to his immortal nature, granting him superhuman strength and the ability to steal the physical attributes of others.

Lore & Background

In the world of Liones, the Sin of Greed is embodied by Ban, a former bandit who gained immortality after drinking from the Fountain of Youth. Ban's power, known as 'Snatch,' allows him to steal physical attributes such as strength, speed, and even the life force of his opponents. This ability is not a mental manipulation but a raw and direct physical theft. Ban's sin stems from his insatiable desire to revive his beloved Elaine, leading him to commit acts of theft and violence in his quest for the Fountain of Youth. His title reflects the greed for life and love that once drove him.

In Their Own Story

The air crackled with static as King stood before the advancing horde of demons. His eyes, usually warm and gentle, narrowed into slits of emerald fire. 'I won't let you harm them,' he whispered, his voice trembling not from fear, but from the surge of power within. A low rumble began in his chest, growing louder until it shook the very ground beneath their feet. His skin shimmered, scales erupting across his arms and face as his body elongated, twisting into a colossal dragon. With a roar that echoed through the valley, the Dragon Sin had awakened.

Reader's Guide

The Dragon Sin functions primarily through the manipulation of 'Dragon Blood,' a unique energy source that flows within King's veins. When activated, it allows him to shift between human and draconic forms, granting him superhuman strength, durability, and flight capabilities. In combat, this power enables the wielder to breathe a concentrated stream of dragon fire or release shockwaves of destructive energy. Uniquely, the sin also possesses healing properties; King can channel his life force to mend wounds in others, though doing so drains his own vitality significantly. Only those with the specific genetic lineage or magical affinity can wield this sin without being consumed by it. Currently, King is the sole known active wielder, having mastered the balance between his human compassion and his draconic instincts.
