After seeing several images on DA and other sites based of the seven deadly sins, I thought I'd come up with my own. In this pic I have given all the characters a similar look whilst also giving each sin embodiment a unique form of their own, each of them have their own colour and traits of a certain animal.

EDIT: Added Backstories

Ever since the first people came into existence, humanity has always been tempted by the seven deadly sins, and with each sin a certain demon grew in strength after consuming the dark energies that resulted from humanity's despicable actions. After realising that each sin can easily be rivaled by the seven heavily virtues, 7 particular demons, each feeding off one particular sin to themselves, chose to venture into the human realm in hopes of satisfying their hunger in an alternative way. However in order to do so, each demon required a host for their entities to attach to, due to the fact that they couldn't exist in the human realm, as such they each chose a human who had died as a result of their individual sin thus allowing them to become hosts for the demonic entities. Though as a result of the possession the demon's conscious minds and personalities were completely eradicated as though they never existed, their abilities and powers remained in the former humans who now act as their anchors to the human realm, all of which still have their own personalities and desires as they did in life, as well as all of their past memories. As a demonic creature, each Sin, save for one, has the ability to change their form in order to blend in with the human realm, along with an additional power from their individual entities. Also, since they no longer feed off negative energies, each Sin's life can now only be sustained by the life energy from living people, as such they have no other choice but to drain at least 1 victim every month using their unique methods.

Sloth:

Once a teenage art student name Sylvia Blake. Though incredibly talented in her courses in College, Sylvia was also incredibly lazy and usually avoided her classes by sleeping in her dorm room. However one day a fire started in the dormitories, while everyone else escaped during the blaze, Sylvia was once again sleeping in her room. Inhaling the smoke as she slept, Sylvia died choking and as a result was succumbed to the possession to the Sloth entity. As a Sin, she has the ability to change her form as well as the ability to induce an instant sleep on her victims, allowing her to enter and alter their dreams to her will so that she could feed off their nightmares.

Pride:

Once a skilful Marine named Amanda Lawton. In life she was always proud to fight for her country, so much so that she never made time for family life whenever she had shore leave. Ever since her teen years she has always been quite skilled in all forms of combat, including firearms, fencing and hand-to-hand combat. One day while on the battle field, she was leading the charge against the enemy, however the enemy was one step of her and she and her regiment were led into a trap. However despite her obvious defeat, Amanda's pride wouldn’t let her give in and she was gunned down after attempting to fight her way out of the trap. After her death she was possessed by the entity of pride and as such gained two new abilities, the ability to change her form to blend into the human realm, and the ability to instantly create powerful weapons and armour from any material, with this ability she sustains her life by drinking the blood of defeated enemies.

Envy:

Once a 9-year-old girl named Nina Burbank. In her previous life she was always jealous of her older sister, who was a teenage pop star and thus was constantly loved by bother her fans and her parents. Though she tried her best to win her parents approval, even going so far as to enter her school's junior track team, Nina never got any of the affection she truly wanted from her parents, eventually Nina grew so jealous she became mad with rage. Things then took a turn for the worst when Nina believed that her parents organised a party for her sister on HER birthday, however little did she realise, her parents actually organised a surprise party for her upon her sister’s wishes. In a fit of jealous rage, Nina sabotaged the party by setting fire to the party decorations, however after that happened, the fire rapidly spread throughout the building and caused several pieces of debris to fall, this was when Nina’s life ended after she took a massive blow to her head, killing her instantly and allowing her to be possessed by the entity of Envy. As a Sin, her skills as a track runner increased immensely and she's now able to run at lightning speeds, along with that came the extra ability to create random accidents to her victims with a click of her fingers, thus allowing her to feed off their pain.

Gluttony:

Once an obese truck driver named Daniel McBride. Though very passionate about his job, the only thing Daniel loved more than driving was eating, everywhere he went he would always spend most of his money on large quantities of meals. One day, during one of his routes on his truck, he arrived at an all you can eat restaurant and was ridiculed due to his weight by an equally large man, furious at the man's idiocy, Daniel challenged him to an eating contest. Though the man stopped after the fourth meal, Daniel kept going despite having already won the challenge, after 13 plates of food, Daniel suddenly found himself choking on a chicken bone and soon died after collapsing. After being possessed by the entity of Gluttony, most of Daniel's original intelligence was decreased and he became no more than a simple beast who only knows how to hide himself and eat, in his new form he has the ability to blend in as well as a powerful mouth with acidic saliva and diamond-hard teeth that allows him to eat just about anything, thus allowing him to consume all that he needs to survive by eating people whole.

Greed:

Once a self-serving Loan Shark named Dennis Clayton. Though at first he was a kind man working as a simple banker, eventually his love for money and golden jewellery eventually got him fired after he tried embezzling numerous funds into his own account. After that he ran out of town before he could be arrested and took to the streets to begin his own business. After several years of being a loan shark, he was eventually cornered by several of the clients he had ripped out and was beaten to death in an alley. After the entity of Greed took him over, his love for riches increased immensely and he gained the ability to turn anything and anyone he wished into gold in order to absorb its energy, as well as the ability to change his form like all the other sins.

Lust:

Once an enchanting prostitute named Selena Wilson. In life she was born with the beauty of a goddess, throughout her entire life she was always showered with praise and awe. However when her family's fortune was lost during a stock market crash, Selena was forced onto the streets where she had no choice but to begin working in a brothel. Overtime Selena began to grow accustomed to her new lifestyle, in fact after five years of living it, she was completely entranced with it, every day she would receive many pleasures from men and women alike. However one day, someone came into the brothel and was too violent with her, after several beatings received from the womanising stranger she suffered internal bleeding and died in agony, allowing her to become possessed by the entity of Lust. Afterwards she gained the ability to change her form like all the other Sins as well as the ability to sing beautifully, hypnotising her victims into a state of obedience and allowing her to absorb their energy by means of a kiss.

Wrath:

Once a convicted prisoner named Michael Markley. Well known throughout his home town as an Arsonist Murderer, he specialised his ways of killing by setting fire to homes and people alike. Ever since Childhood, he had been constantly ridicule because of his appearance and as such has been fueled by hate most of his life, thus leading to his series of killings. When he was finally captured, the only plea he made at his trial was his hatred for the people he killed, saying that they deserved worse for what they did to him. As such he was sentenced to death by electric chair. After his death, he was possessed by the entity of Wrath and became one of the more grotesque Sins, concealing himself within his cloak in order to hide it due to his inability to change his form because of the travesty he caused in life, however he makes of for this by his new ability to create and control fire, giving relevance to his former life, because of this ability he is able to sustain himself by inhaling the ashes of his victims.
