People. . . Men. . .Women. . . Human. 

Greed, Lust, Gluttony, Pride, Envy, Sloth, and Wrath. 

All of these attributes live inside these creatures. The 7 sins of which can kill others, each other, and themselves. Because of their nature they look to their so called creators, the gods, in hope of forgiving and releasing them of their sins

They look for answers and sometimes even assume them from the unnatural occurrence of their world, trying to find what is it their savers want, what they wish, what they must do to be clences and to be sure of their safety and garentiance into the afterlife.

One of these asume answers,

Was found on the outskirts of their map, an infant

 with dark brown hair of what could look like a human child but 

Had long hairy legs and big feet with claws at each end of the toes and fingers, a red lion’s tail that's about a foot long, and fangs that seem to just poke out of its mouth. “Demon!”they cried, “demon!” 

Labeling it as so.

 They all decided to take it to the church

 and ask their savor for a meaning behind its presence in their world.

Because it was a demon, along with fear, and in order to defy the devil and remain untainted, they would constantly beat the creature despite its human appearance and lack of mobility, and knowledge. Sadly for the child they continue this until they reach their destination. 

Despite all the hits it took, 

the child still lived 

Upon return,

The travelers handed the baby over to the church 

with claims of it cleaning away their sins and bad luck.

 According to them, because they had the demon child, they were able to repent their sins by rebelling against the devil using the child and in return they receive a huge amount of luck. Each day on their trip it ended with weird occurrences of good luck with them finding food, to shelter, to a storm dispersing, preditors fleeing, and sick people on the trip suddenly healing.

It was as if the child was absorbing their bad luck.

With that the church claimed him and

 made him 

A step to redemption

A monster
