Sin is the physical embodiment of transgression against divine law, the mother of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and is the "daughter" of Satan whom sprang forth from his head when he was still in Heaven during the stage of his rebellion only to fall into what would later be known as Hell.
Appearance[]
Sin's appearance can be described as her having the shape of a woman from the waist but with a serpent's body below and a circle of hell-hounds around her waist, constantly birthing them as they then begin gnawing at her. She has no control over these changes but is held captive by cruel pregnancies in a body in perpetual labour, cursed by her own fertility.
Over the millennia she was able to control her transformations and did so by accumulating the sin that had plagued the world since time immemorial. Her true form is a large winged creature, resembling a sphinx with red sharp claws and purple feathers. The two pairs of wings on her back are riddled with eyes that shoot projectiles, her "real mouth" is an opening that slits from one side, reaches her neck and part of her face, then ends to the other side of her body, revealing a big mouth lined with rows of sharp teeth with an extendable tongue and protruding limbs that have hideous canine heads on their ends.
Description[]
Sin is the embodiment of humanity's shadow and represents the evil in all men's hearts given life and form. It is said that Sin's mere existence was enough to corrupt all those around her and that her actions was causing the nature of existence and thought to shift dramatically. It is said that Sin is nigh-impossible to kill for as long as even a single man harbors a single dark thought then Sin will continue to exist. Moreover, when unleashed upon the Earth, the evil she spreads will only make her grow stronger.
Sin is regarded as both an allegorical representation of his sin against God and a parody of God's creation of the Son. Her birth is also a mockery of Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom, who was birthed out of the head of Zeus.
History[]
Origins[]
Sin was birthed from Satan by emerging from his head, which is considered to be a demonized parody of Athena's own birth from her father, Zeus. Sin is Satan's thoughts of rebellion made manifest, and was created sometime after Satan was cast out of the Mountain of God. The shadowy thoughts of disobedience and rebellion consumed the mind of Satan, resulting in Sin taking shape and erupting from his head. Sin's presence was instantly sensed by several angels and almost immediately she was driven out of Heaven.
Sin fell from Heaven and into the Abyss. After the fall of the angels, their fall awakened her and she stood up to see the landscape around her taking unspeakable dark shapes and fire. Despite her position, God communicated with Sin and ordered her to guard the entryway of this newly formed Hell while the fallen angels were unconscious around her. These series of events were too fast for Sin to process and blindly did what she was told.
Hell to Earth[]
Sin is then met by her father after his own fall from Heaven at the Gates of Hell, pregnant with her child Death. The relationship between Satan and Sin is an allegory tying together the ideas of disobedience, sin, and death: Disobedience results in sin, and sin results in death. Death at the time would not be born until the very first death occurs on Earth which in this case would be Cain killing Abel. Sin states that she cannot allow Satan to leave through the Gate by God's orders but Satan responds by informing her that she is not a creation of God and therefore should not be obedient to Him. Contemplating on this, Sin relents and allows her father to leave, making his way to the Garden of Eden.
She then built a bridge to Earth and inhabit the world after the Fall of Man. Moreover, it is revealed that through the murder of Abel by Cain's hand, thus invoking the first murder, Sin gave birth to Death. And as the centuries passed, humanity created war and battle resulting in Sin giving birth to War. Throughout history, as the world is plunged into ruin by the sins of man, she gives birth to two more children whom become the physical concepts that would ravage humanity for centuries to come and that being Famine and Conquest. Despite her iron grip upon the world and humanity, Sin and Death will inevitably be sealed in Hell.
It is also believed that the birth of Sin resulted in the formation of the Seven Deadly Sins as she sprang from Satan's head the moment he began to rebel against God and Heaven. Sin's expulsion from Satan created a "blowback" that resulted in vices, which the six other high-ranked angels were experiencing, to also manifest and spring forth from their being. This could in a sense make Sin the creator of the Seven Deadly Sins. Some even speculate that Sin mated with the Seven Kings to produce the Seven Deadly Sins.
Apocalypse[]
Sin had been present on Earth ever since Mundus's invasion of the human world although she claims that she hid beneath the crevices of the Earth when Christ ascended into Heaven after taking all the sins of His flock into him forcing her to go into hibernation. She resurfaced several centuries when humanity once again drowned themselves in their own vices. It was revealed that Sin had been in league with the Illuminati, working together in a bid to free Lucifer and her father Satan from their confinement within the depths of Hell. Posing as a human woman aptly named Cynthia she operated as a corporate monger that was also a business partner to Eron Carpathia, secretly the Shepherd of the Illuminati.
Furthermore, Sin is revealed to be instrumental in freeing Lucifer from his tomb or rather is actually one of the final seals to release the Morningstar and by extension the Adversary to bring forth the Apocalypse. It was she who arranged the destruction of the Seven Deadly Sins, who were one of the seals that kept Lucifer at bay, at the hands of Devil May Cry. And would later during the climax of the Illuminati arc her own death by Vergil's hands led to not only the final seal breaking but also the destruction of her four subsidiaries around the globe were in actuality the four seals that summoned the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
