Seven Deadly Sins

The Seven Deadly Sins (七つの大罪 Nanatsu no Taizai) are a group of powerful Ashanian Warriors that are in charge of protecting their kingdom. They were specially appointed by the Kingdom's King due to their amazing prowess and combat. They can also be considered the strongest soldiers of the Ashanian Army. As evident, each user represents a Sin and one of the few deities inside the Asha's Mythology.

History
The Seven Deadly Sins were created back then, 7 years before the current storyline, by the King of Asha. The latter saw incredible potential in seven special soldiers of the Ashanian Army, and decided they should be acknow by the entire kingdom. That both because of how they acted and how powerful they were, though secretly the King related each of them with a Sin and also with deities from the mythology of the Asha. Pretty much after being crowded as the Sins, each of them became widely known through the country, only in the positive ways of course.

They would many and many jobs through the country, not only hunting missions but also many others, like helping citizens and the such. However after much time working under the King, desires grew inside the members and they took advantage of the event of the Asha's Annual Part. As the King was killed, Damon was framed for it and banned from the country, therefore being excomunnicated from the Sins. Though, they weren't shaken or desestabilized by it as the supposed De-facto leader of the Group continued commanding them, still protecting the Kingdom and it's inhabitants. With the King down, the Sins' Leader assumed partial control over the Country.

Apparently, the sins were the first people to go against Damon and banish him. During that time, another member was recruited in order to substitute Damon and also reestabilish the Sins. It is unknown on why they quickly turned their backs on their former friend nor why the Leader volunteered to assume control of the Kingdom.

Comparisons

Sins
