Read on to find out a brief description of the different each individual Unit in The-Units.
This may help you make the decision that could affect your character's life for eternity..
Choose wisely!


:bulletred: UNIT WRATH :bulletred:

Also Referred To As: Anger, Rage, Ira.
Associated Color: Red.
Punishment by Death Sentence: Being dismembered alive.
Associated Animal: The Bear.
Associated Demon: Amon.
Description: Wrath is the long and uncontrolled feelings of anger. It is constant and controls the body, mind and soul. It fuels revenge and conquers all feelings of morality and love. It is not a simple human emotion - Wrath has powerful consequences, unlike a passing feeling of frustration or anger. Wrath has become a sort of "Leader" of the Units over time because of its reputation of constant anger and revengeful tactics. It is also the only Sin to not have any bit of Pride associated with it. Wrath is also believed to be most “blinding” of the sins.
Tasks Unit Wrath Receives: Unit Wrath receives crimes involving..

:bulletred: Murder out of pure spite or hatred,
:bulletred: Assisting a client in murder,
:bulletred: Assisting a client in destroying a church / religious congregation out of spite or hatred.

Unit Wrath Leader: Favian Augustas (Application)

:bulletpurple: UNIT PRIDE :bulletpurple:

Also Referred To As: Vanity, Hubris, Superbia.
Associated Color: Violet.
Punishment by Death Sentence: Being broken on the wheel.
Associated Animal: The Horse.
Associated Demon: Lucifer / Satan.
Description: Pride is having too much belief in one's talents, skills, or abilities to the point of placing themselves above the ranks of others, even religious deities. It is known as the "central Sin" because no other Sin would exist without it. All Sins have some sort of Pride within them, which only boosts Pride's ego. Pride is sometimes referred to as the most serious of the Sins because of its constant competition to rise over deities.
Tasks Unit Pride Receives: Unit Pride receives crimes involving..

:bulletpurple: Murder of a celebrity / well-known official,
:bulletpurple: Making someone look beautiful for a client's immoral intentions,
:bulletpurple: Assisting a client become more powerful than a religious deity.

Unit Pride Leader / Guardian: Coming Soon.

:bulletorange: UNIT GLUTTONY :bulletorange:

Also Referred To As: Gula.
Associated Color: Orange.
Punishment by Death Sentence: Force-fed rats, toads and snakes.
Associated Animal: The Pig.
Associated Demon: Beelzebub.
Description: Gluttony is the abnormal desire to consume more food and drink than one needs. It is one of the "Excessive Sins" along with Lust and Greed. Gluttony is also considered to be the one of the ugliest of the Sins because it is associated with excessive body weight. It is also considered a Sin if one eats “outside” of normal times - one cannot snack, and one cannot think of food other than during meals. It is unclear whether or not Gluttony is considered an actual Sin by classical virtue - in older times, many idealized a gluttonous figure because it represented wealth and lavishness.
Tasks Unit Gluttony Receives: Unit Gluttony receives crimes involving..

:bulletorange: Murder by poison / alcoholic intoxication / other harmful foods,
:bulletorange: Participating in cannibalism for / with a client,
:bulletorange: Eating leftover trash / food to the point of sickness for a client.

Unit Gluttony Guardian: Tarot Barnes (Application)

:bulletgreen: UNIT ENVY :bulletgreen:

Also Referred To As: Invidia.
Associated Color: Green
Punishment by Death Sentence: Put in freezing water.
Associated Animal: The Dog.
Associated Demon: Leviathan.
Description: Envy is the abnormal desire for another person's personality traits, achievements, or status. Envy does not wish to pursue material wealth; they are after personal achievement of another person. Envy is often confused with its close relative, Greed, because of this. They are only envious because they want it for themselves, or they do not want this person to have the particular quality that they envy. They are out to destroy human beings rather than objects for their own gain. It is said that when the Goddess of Envy walked, she poisoned everything she walked upon, and they died beneath her feet.
Tasks Unit Envy Receives: Unit Envy receives crimes involving..

:bulletgreen: Murder out of jealous intent for a client,
:bulletgreen: Help a client make someone jealous of themselves,
:bulletgreen: Will destroy whatever an envious client cannot possess so that the envied person can no longer own it.

Unit Envy Leader / Guardian: Coming Soon.

:bulletblue: UNIT SLOTH :bulletblue:

Also Referred To As: Acedia.
Associated Color: Light Blue.
Punishment by Death Sentence: Thrown into snake pits.
Associated Animal: The Goat.
Associated Demon: Belphegor.
Description: Sloth is often considered the least serious of all Sins and is questioned as a Sin in general, but in ancient times, it was often considered the deadliest. Sloth is the complete aversion to work and helpfulness towards society, and over time, has developed to mean laziness and idleness. Sloth is also connected with grief and depression as well as suicide. It has become the slyest of the sins because of its objection to help society and its nonchalant attitude.
Tasks Unit Sloth Receives: Unit Sloth receives crimes involving..

:bulletblue: Assisting a client in committing suicide,
:bulletblue: Special nightly, or nocturnal, cases that could not be handled by other Units,
:bulletblue: Assisting a client in becoming fired from a difficult occupation / quitting.

Unit Sloth Leader: Sett (Application)

:bulletblue: UNIT LUST :bulletblue:

Also Referred To As: Lechery, Luxuria.
Associated Color: Blue.
Punishment by Death Sentence: Smothered in fire and brimstone.
Associated Animal: The Cow.
Associated Demon: Asmodeus.
Description: Lust is the craving for the sexual pleasures of the body. This is not only in action, but thoughts as well - if one has excessive thoughts about these pleasures, it is considered an act of immoral crime. Lust is often considered to be the most beautiful of the sins because of its sexual background. Lust is not the same as everyday attraction. It reduces the idea of a person as a human being into an object of sexual desire and pleasure. In this way, it is another “Excessive Sin”, becoming a close relative of Gluttony and Greed.
Tasks Unit Lust Receives:

:bulletblue: Murder out of sexual desire,
:bulletblue: Prostitution,
:bulletblue: Having an affair / cheating in another relationship for a client.

Unit Lust Leader: Lucas (Application)

:bulletyellow: UNIT GREED :bulletyellow:

Also Referred To As: Avarice, Covetousness, Avaritia.
Associated Color: Yellow / Gold.
Punishment by Death Sentence: Boiled alive in oil.
Associated Animal: The Frog.
Associated Demon: Mammon.
Description: Greed is the abnormal desire for material gain. It is believed to be the root of all problems and crime because it leads to mistrust of oneself and selfishness. Greed does not only apply to material gain, either. It also applies to greed for social status and power. Excessive gambling is also considered a sin of Greed. One does not need to be boastful of their possessions, either - hoarding possessions is just as sinful. Greed is considered to be one of the “Excessive Sins” along with Lust and Gluttony.
Tasks Unit Greed Receives: Unit Greed receives crimes involving..

:bulletyellow: Murder out of wealth, social status, or power for a client,
:bulletyellow: Thievery for a client,
:bulletyellow: Cheating / bribing out of wealth, social status, or power for a client.

Unit Greed Leader / Guardian: Coming Soon.
