What is a Makoatl?
A Makoatl is a terrestrial shark-dragon hybrid recently discovered
off the coast of the Greenland sea. They have the powerful tail
and jaws of a shark, with the body and (occasional) horns of a dragon.
They usually have manes, and are covered in thick coats of fur-
adapted to keeping out the cold in their native habitat.
They live on a diet of mainly meat and fish, and are known to be vicious
hunters! Despite this attitude toward their prey, however, they
are very protective and mothering to their offspring,
as well as to each other the majority of the time.

My Last Ga Design ;w; It was a pleasure designing for you all!
Did you know that the colors associated with the seven deadly sins is basically ROYGBIV, minus Indigo? So This lil guy's based off those colors!
Don't worry, they're not PPS, so they will grow up!
This is gonna be a longer contest; An Impress Me of sorts, add anything you think is relevant to the character, no fillers. Originality is a plus. ^^
Prettying is allowed.
If you have questions don't be afraid to PM me.

Countdown
It will be closed once this counter ends, so don't edit after this ends. I will post a formal close when I can.

FAQ:
Can they be any other gender than Male/Female?
Yes, They can. But just as real life, they have a biological gender.

Why 500 words under "what sin they take after"?
I basically want a short explanation or story (Or other writing) as to why they do or how they show their sin. No matter how old you're portraying them, I want to see how their major sin affects them. (This goes for the rest of the form too, btw).

Name:
This Mako's name is Avarice. She goes by Ava for short.
Avarice is a synonym for greed. It's a greed for wealth or material gain, which I think fit's this Mako's personality rather well.

Gender:
Avarice is female.





What Sin Does She Take After?
Avarice takes after the sin greed. Mostly, as her name suggests, towards material gain. Money, jewels, anything that's worth something, and Avarice will try to get as much of it as she can. She's got piles of money and rare minerals hidden away in her home, seemingly useles... But that's just how she stores it. She hoards it, hides it, so no-one can find it or take it away from her. Sometimes she'll spend it on things, but she's still very greedy there, and will spend the least she can for the most she can. She can be seen wearing expensive jewelry quite often, as well, and she likes to show it off.

Art of Her Representing That Sin:

Here's Avarice sitting atop a mound of gold in her little hidden cave-home. She's wearing a nice necklace with a ruby pendant, some ruby and sapphire earrings, and two golden bracelets, as well. She seems quite pleased with her pile of gold...

About Her:
Aside from being incredibly greedy, Avarice has some other personality traits that aren't all bad. For one, she's very independent. She hardly ever needs help from anyone else, despite being young, and has even survived without parents for quite some time. Though she's very slow to trust, mostly because she's afraid everyone will steal from her, she can make friends once she's sure they're not dangerous at all. She's exceptionally good at saving money, and loves to crack jokes. She comes off as light-hearted to others, but she's really rather quiet when not in public places.

Art:
Maybe I'll make more art, maybe not. I don't know if I'll have time.

✩ Uѕernaмe:
QuantumNightmare

✩ Naмe:

Lucia
| loo•SEE•ah |
From Roman given name 'Lucius', originally derived from Latin 'lux' meaning 'light'.

A name meaning light seemed fitting for this darkly deceptive individual, and when added to the fact that the colours of the deadly sins correspond with the colours comprising visible light it seemed even more perfect. Oh, and then there is of course the small matter of the old video game Lucius and its eponymous character, who just so happens to be the son of Satan.
Xyr key aspects are all clearly shown in this name, putting across xyr design, personality and theming all at once. It was too perfect an opportunity to pass up.

✩ Gender:

Biologically female, but identifies as agender (xe/xem/xyr)

Despite using neutral pronouns myself I have never used xe/xem/xyr before and thus, despite reading up on it, I may have slipped up in a couple of places. I mean no insult ;-;

✩ Aвoυт:


Such a short space of words to convey all that is Lucia, all of xyr sharp tongue and false personalities, dark mind and sweet smiles all within the confines of 700 words.
So we start with the beginning, as is customary.
Lucia is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.
No-one knows where xyr came from, or of xyr true nature, but all agree there is something... off about the child. They have no power, that they are reasonably certain of (though it would be easier to explain if they did), but somehow it always seems that when Lucia wants something, xe will almost inevitably, impossibly get it.
Xyr believes xemself a demon, the offspring of some lust demon or even Asmodeus themself. Or maybe it would be more accurate to say xe desperately wishes to be as such. The lack of any discernible powers like any other cambion made xem feel unwanted even amongst the darkness xe had turned to when there was no-one else. Despite a continuing search for power, any power, xe has found themselves amongst their own kind, the Makoatl, once more. Here xe does not have need of power; anyone will do anything if xe simply plants the seed of an idea — one has no need of compulsion to manipulate mortals.
Lucia acts the sweet-hearted child far too well for someone who never had a chance to be one. To others xe is shy, well-mannered and polite, if rather quiet with that peculiar 'off'ness about them. But say the wrong thing, cross xem in even the slightest manner and perhaps they will notice the glint of darkness that flashes in xyr eyes, how that soft smile reveals bared fangs.
When xe is not hiding amongst xyr kind, that quietness quite quickly becomes unsettling, the silence oppressive and making anyone in xyr presence uncomfortable. Xyr face is stony and blank, eyes dark and fangs bared. Xe has no time for pleasantries outside of those that help xyr little mission. It's easy to see how someone capable of such an abrupt about face in the way xe presents xemself could be considered unnatural.
But truly a demon, a cambion?
That remains to be seen; Lucia's lust for power and home has no sway in this matter.
{535/700 words}

✩ Sin:


Lust, luxuria, considered by many writers and religious figures the first of the seven, though far from the greatest. Believed by most to be simply desires of the flesh, the true meaning holds truer to simply excessive desire for anything considered sinful: money, pleasure, status.
Power.
And desire is something Lucia is well acquainted with, indeed. Maybe xyr desire for money could be classed as avarice, for status invidia, for power superbia. In that way, perhaps, xe could be considered well versed in many of the seven vices.
But in the end it all comes back to lust. Lust that drives xem to desire what xe does.
The first time lust touched Lucia's life, xe was filled with the burning desire to belong, to matter. An innocent enough request, however warped it became.
Having always been alone, xe had the misfortune to be immediately drawn to the darkness, tempted by the whispers that hung unheard around the dark places. Xe could belong at last, if xe was demonkind. Everything made sense if xe was demonkind.
Everything but one, frustrating detail.
The whispers spoke of untold abilities to those cambion, the children of demons. Fire and lightning, dream manipulation, the ability to seduce with their voices, glamours that could make them vanish and reappear at will. For those cambion of Lust, the offspring of Asmodeus, the ability to steal the life energy of others with a touch.
And so Lucia tried. Practised and waited whilst days with the whispers became weeks, became months. But no powers emerged, not even the barest flicker of lightning and certainly not xyr promised lifesteal.
The only thing that truly emerged in this time was doubt.
The rage xe displayed at the thought of not belonging was better suited to a wrath demon than xemself, but even the angriest whispers with all their speak of commanding hellfire were cowed by the child's fury. And so that once-innocent lust for the simplest thing — a place to belong — became an all consuming lust for the power that would allow xem to. And for those who would stand in xyr way, the others of xyr kind who had never been there for xem, powerful feeling of hatred and violence had overtaken where once Lucia would have sought to befriend.
Well, they call it bloodlust for a reason, after all.
Xe went on to dabble in dark magics and even nearly be struck by lightning (whilst following the less-than-friendly whispers of an envy demon - it left static eternally jumping from xyr fur and at the time had nearly blinded xem, xe just wished to control the static for xyr own and thought it an opportunity). It was only once xe went to find other Makoatl, in search of those rare individuals with magical prowess, that xe discovered an ability, not a power like xyr desired, but that knowledge of the whispers of demons left xem an expert in manipulation.
Lucia's search for power continues amongst the Makoatl.
