So i guess we know that central died before jack because she could not very well know the sin 'wraith' before jack if she died after him. or at the same time, he, we know he whacked a room full of people maybe central was in there too. probly not likely though but it would explain why central is so bitter agianst jack.

You do realise that normal dead furs can become virtues as well now eh?

How many of those would there be?
Hmm...
Let's say the virtues would be the polar opposite of the sins, then there should be one for each...
Wrath - Might be Reckonin (the Samurai Angel from the Arena scene).
Lust - Almost certainly 'Love', a.k.a. Farrago
Greed - Considering that Vince is the archetype of the corrupt ruler I'd vote for 'Justice' - Central, that is - as his counterpart.
Gluttony - Unknown.
Envy - Unknown.
Pride - Unknown. 'Humility', possibly.
Sloth - Unknown.

Sins and their counterparts:
Wrath - Phlegmaticness
Lust - Impotence
Gluttony - Anorexy
Sloth - Hypreactivity
I know, the counterparts aren't any Virtues... ok, I'll shut up now

Lol
On a side note, if there is good versions of the sins, are there neutral ones too, to balance it all? Probably not...

Neutrals = Living

Neutrals = Living
To me that doesn't fit very well, since the living almost always lean towards either "good" or "evil" in the course of their lives. Of course there a surely a lot of people who could be described as "grey", who doesn't take sides in life but instead live in denial of the world and its problems... But i think that is more a result of today's civilization rather than a natural state of mind/soul. Perhaps the only neutral ones are animals...
Eh, hope that made *some* sort of sense

Then again, Jack characters are part animals...
Okay, so there're
no neutrals anywhere?

I meant *true* animals. As in not speaking and such

Maybe dead flesh is neutral

Or tofu!

Goths are sometimes neutral too...

Actually, in the revised 'HackMaster' RPG rules (a parody setting of sorts) 'Goths' are always Chaotic Evil with a side order of 'Bloody Annoying'.
One or two of the designers may have had a few bad experiences with them, I guess

Oh come now, it's easy to spin the equal and opposite virtue to the sin!
Wrath/Mercy
Lust/Chastity
Greed/Generosity
Sloth/Vigilance? (What's the word for 'works hard')
Envy/Content?
Gluttony/...Moderation? (Okay, so it's not easy per say.)
Pride/Humility definately! "Blessed are the meek" and all that!
Well... Envy and Gluttony kinda have me stumped. I kind of group greed and gluttony together myself... And as for Envy? I have no idea what the virtuous opposite to Envy is!

Diligence, not vigilance. But you were close.
Wrath/Peacefulness
Gluttony/Temperance
Pride/Humility
Envy/Contentment
Avarice(Greed)/Generosity
Sloth/Diligence
Lust/Chastity
Come on, people, didn't you ever play Lucasarts' Afterlife?

I still think Mercy is a better term than Peacefulness, but the others fit!
Diligence! Of course! I knew it was a word like that!
