Name: Lulu
Gender: Female
Sin: Sloth
Personality: Lulu is, well, lazy. VERY lazy. Lulu doesn’t do much except eat, sleep, and float around. She tends to set her head down on the first comfortable spot she can find when she gets tired, which happens often. She slouches, even though her body is virtually weightless. She stretches and yawns constantly. She might come across as caring about people’s problems. However, all she really wants is to try and convince people to let go of all their problems and just relax all the time. Lulu is terribly apathetic, and doesn’t generally try and help people solve their problems so much as get them to stop trying. Despite being tired and lazy all the time, she is actually quite intelligent and wise. She doesn’t like to try and use her intellect or talents under normal circumstances, as that requires her to exert effort, ultimately ruining her otherwise self-inflicted dazed state of exhaustion.

Appearance: Posted Image
There are a few differences between how she looks and the pic. First and foremost, the wings are nowhere near as large. They have shrunken down to tiny little wings due to disuse. Her body has next to no “muscle” left, as she hasn’t put any effort into maintaining them. She wears very baggy clothes, mainly a big, white, loose T-shirt, over her other clothes. Her hair is always in a mess, and it usually looks like she has bags under her eyes.

Short Bio: Lulu was a spirit who had the potential to do great things for both worlds. She seemed to have it all. Brains, beauty, charm, power, and leadership were all attributes that others saw in her. However, she couldn’t figure out what she was supposed to do with herself. She tried dozens of things to try and solve her problem. Nothing seemed to fit her.

Eventually, she began to feel as if she would never find out what she was supposed to do with herself. She, in her desperation, looked to the human world to see if she could find some inspiration. However, all she found was laziness and apathy. She took this to heart, and became the embodiment of sloth.

Power:
Levitation- Lulu, being too lazy and weak to exert almost any physical effort at all, floats around instead of walking. She is surprisingly quick because of this. She can lift other objects, if needed, but she generally doesn’t lift anything over 10 lbs. or so unless her life’s in danger, as it requires effort.

Infectious Fatigue- Lulu has the ability to tire people out by just being in proximity to them. She causes people she targets to become lethargic, fatigued, exhausted, and apathetic. Generally, this starts out with the person feeling tired, but it quickly grows until they have trouble getting around. This effect lasts until the person either leaves her range of influence or falls asleep. If they fall asleep, it is highly likely the effect won’t go away for quite some time after they wake up.

Other Information: Lulu… is not to be expected to try and fight. She’s capable of it, but only if the issue is pressed. She’s more likely to try and lull a person to sleep and use them as a pillow. Can’t expect much more than that from Sloth, though.

I hope it's not too late to join! A malicious yet just, good spirit here!

Name: Sorian Marath
Gender: Male
Personality: Sorian is, well, like his race, Dark. He has dark thoughts, makes dark punishments, so on and so forth. However, once you've earned a right into his closely knit and very tight circle of friends, he can show you that he can be kind, compassionate, and caring even.

His wrath, however, is like a violent storm that will topple any who stand before him.
Appearance: Sorian stands at a none-too-modest two meters even, roughly six foot seven. His frame is long, and thin, but wounds tightly with wiry, sinewy muscle.

His skin, thanks to his lineage of Dark Elven blood, is as black as obsidian, with his hair and eyes a stunning silver, so much like the mithril armor his kind forges.

His eyes are set high and slanted in his long face, with a long beaked nose, high, sharp cheekbones, and long, pointed ears.

He wears long leather trousers that sport their own unbuilt boots, which sit high on his stimach, belted in place by a large, armored belt. (artwork coming soon, so that you guys can actually see it :P )

He has armored bracers which are plated in mithril, a light but strong Elven steel, so as to keep his maneuverability. Attached to the undersides of his wrists are two extending hidden blades. He keeps fifteen throwing knives on his person, in various sheathes. His two swords, Maldiriel (the sister) and Malbarion (her brother sword) are sheathed across his back, so that they crosswise over each other.
Short Bio: Sorian grew up in a lavish household, supplied by his great great grandfather, Prince Sorian of the Marath line of Elven nobility. The Marath line was famed throughput the land for having skin as black as night and hair of silver and white. Once, long ago, the large and powerful Maraths waged war against against their cousin clan, the Esthakai. Initially it was an internal dispute, fought in the shadows using assassins and spies. Once, however, it got into the open, the Elven High Council held a meeting, a meeting which saw the banishment of the Marath line from High Elven lands. Forced to leave the land above them, the Marath clan fled deep underground, to the Underdark. This is where and when they became known as the Dark Elves.

Wow, I really can get tangential! Anyway, Sorian grew up in the lap of luxury. He lived in the palace, catered to by maidens and a personal guard but he wanted something. Something MORE. He wanted adventure. And when he was roughly fifty (barely an adolescent by elven standards) he set out to adventure. Later, when he'd returned some hundred years later, he was forced into politics by his family, and to get away from that he turned to the army which was run by the Marath clan. Now he stands foremost amongst the fight against the actual darkness.
Power: Sorian has gained two abilities- one to strike fear into the hearts of a few at a timebut the fear is infectious. Second, he is able to control shadow, to the point where he wears it about him as a cloak.

Name: Shion
Gender: Male
Sin: Wrath
Personality: Saying that this guy has a short fuse is a definite understatement. It is probably the shortest fuse anyone has ever seen, and it's not at all difficult to get Shion to fly off the handle. Anger is pretty much the only emotion he knows how to show, and he will twist anything you say into some kind of slight at him. Just so he has an excuse to attack you. RAGE RAGE RAGE!
Appearance:
Shion

Short Bio: Shion was just about as peaceful as a spirit could get before the tragedy. He was staying with a fellow spirit who he cared for deeply while he spent some time in the material world. While they were walking home one night, however, they were attacked by members of a local gang. He had managed to hide from them, and he watched in horror as the other spirit was brutally murdered. Something snapped inside him at the sight of her death. He left his hiding place and attacked the humans who had killed her. After that bloodbath was over, Shion felt... nothing. No sorrow over her death. Nothing. It was actually quite a nice feeling. And it's what he always feels after his rages. Just... nothingness. Empty. No pain. No sorrow. No remorse or fear. Nothing at all.
Power: You know how people will mention how their "blood is boiling" when they get angry? Well, Shion can manipulate blood. His own, naturally. And only when he is in one of his rages. Once his blood starts "boiling," he can control it as he wishes. Usually to make weapons.
Other Information: n/a


Name: Enthil
Gender: Male
Personality: Enthil is stoic in the extreme. He doesn't kid around. He doesn't waste time. He just does what needs to be done when it needs to be done. No nonsense, there. Idle chatter? Waste of time and air. Facial expressions? Waste of energy. He's what some might call "boring."
Appearance:
Enthil

Short Bio: Enthil has never been to the material world. He spends all of his time meditating under the tree, and he was the first to notice its decay. The sight of it put him into action hunting down those responsible for the tree's sorry state, and he has been doing that ever since.
Power: Enthil can manipulate his bone structure to create weapons. Does it hurt? Oh hell yes, but he doesn't seem to notice nor care. Mostly because his sense of pain is dulled.
Other Information: n/a

7skullz, there are no elves, exactly, in this setting. You'll have to change that around a bit.

((Sorry for the multiple posts, here. *dies*))

Name: Reina
Gender: Female
Spirit:
Personality: Contemplative and serene, it is hard to crack the surface of Reina's emotions. She rarely angers, rarely shows or feels sorrow, or mirth. Sometimes seems almost ...apart...from everyone, a mere observer with nothing at stake either way. Listens more than speaks, watches more than does.
Appearance

Short Bio: An 'administrative' spirit for several centuries, Reina's job has been to assign spirits to different parts of the tree, or to send them on small trips to the material world. This has led her to spend most of her time watching the tree, and watching the spirits, trying to assign each spirit to the one place they would do the most good.

Saw the slow corruption of the spirits who turned to Sin, but did not understand what was happening until it is to late. She feels very guilty over her failure to see what was wrong and fix it, and thus has a personal interest (not that it shows), in not only saving the tree...But in saving the spirits.

She believes they can be saved, and ...purified, as it were. All that is needed is to heal them, and they will once again be loyal, loving spirits who care for the tree.

Power: Has a limited sort of Sight, which allows her to See something about someone they might not want known. Can See over great distance, but not time. Can See inside a soul/spirit, although it takes conscious effort. Also possess the ability to share her Sight, or display what she sees in a sphere she creates and holds in her hands.
Other Information: Reina spends most of her time at the upper canopy of the tree, gazing out across the spirit world, or gazing at the material world.

Hope you don't mind me using Tai as Saggita's motivation, Murasaki. If you do, does anyone else want to kind of step in? XP

Name: Saggita Athyn
Gender: Female
Spirit: Air
Personality: Saggita is generally an easy person to be around, like most spirits. However, she’s not the type that’s really nice, or will bend over backwards. Instead, her charisma comes from her apparent ease with the world despite its evils and her ability to believe in the good in everyone (Read: The Good in humans, no necessarily the good in spirits.) With a dry sense of humor and a liking for just a little bit of sarcasm, you better have your wits about you while talking to Saggita. She believes strongly in justice, but she also believes in mercy. However, in her mind, the turned spirits will receive no mercy from her. With a kind heart and an understanding mind, Saggita is often the Spirit that others turn to in times of doubt. She will speak her mind bluntly, but she will show sympathy. Even the pricklier spirits will find her tolerable, at the very least.
Appearance:
I will always be with you

Short Bio: Saggita was always like the other spirits, “pure” and “good.” She still is. Her entire life was dedicated to spending time taking care of the tree, and guarding it. Then, she was a bright and nearly painfully exuberant spirit, always taking off into the skies. Then one by one, the seven spirits fell to Earth’s temptations. One of them was Saggita’s best friends: Taikasei. When he turned, Saggita’s heart was shattered. She hunted him to the barrier between her world and Earth. He escaped her arrows, and she fell apart. For several weeks, no one could find Saggita, lost among the winds. She was mourning, completely inconsolable. When she finally returned to her duties, the only sign anything had ever happened was the change in her personality. Saggit became more grounded, more serious, less happy. That isn’t to say that she’s depressed or doesn’t trust anyone, but it’s as if Tai sucked the excess energy right out of Saggita. But ever since, Saggita has made it her own painful goal to hunt down her best friend and kill him.
Power: Air Manipulation: Basically as said. Saggita can influence anything that involves air, even capable of extracting it from earth and water. Because of this, she also has slight control over weather, although not enough to really matter. Saggita is extremely adept at this power, able to bring air molecules so tightly together that she can produce weapons and shields. She can also affect the flight of her arrows to a certain degree.
Gale Step: Saggita can turn herself into the wind itself. In this state, she can be wounded, if a person knows where to strike. The more spread out she is, the shallower the wound, but it also makes it more difficult for her to bring her physical, solid form back together. She also cannot use Air Manipulation in this form, other than herself.
Other Information: Saggita’s main weapon is bow and arrow

You can use Jet if Murasaki doesn't want you using Tai. I don't see Murasaki minding, but I thought I would throw it out there.

We could even say he tried getting her to sleep with him. XD
