Quite interested. I would like to try and reserve Lust. No bounty information on him yet cause I'm not really sure of the relative values of money in this setting.

Age: 17
Sin: Lust
Height: 7 ft. 
Weight: 145&1/2 lbs. 
Hair Color: Dark Blond
Eye Color: Brown
Gender: Male
Written Appearance: Absalom is very tall and thin to the point of being emaciated, pale alabaster skin stretched painfully tightly over his nigh-on skeletal form, taut and looking ready to tear open at any moment at his joints.  His limbs are spindly and long, slightly out of proportion with the rest of his body, but not inhumanly so. His hands are delicate, long-fingered and resemble large spiders, almost always in movement, either idly flexing or busy twirling and touching something or someone else - flipping a coin, twirling a knife, caressing a length of luxury fabric to appreciate its texture, tapping against the nearest hard surface - it is a nervous tic and a borderline obsession that Absalom can only remedy by clutching his own hands tightly one in another. His face would be appealing and even attractive if not for his malnourished state, clearly of noble heritage and possessing of a prominent brow, chiseled cheekbones a lantern jaw, sunken cheeks and thin lips almost constantly stretched in a small, warm and guilty smile of the sort that a man usually makes when an intimate or sensitive subject is brought up with him, or when one is reminded in a joking way of some past naughtiness or misdeed. Absalom's hair is peculiar in its unnatural speed of growth, never taking more than a week or two to grow from being shorn completely off into a massive, ugly and mottled mane reaching the very ground beneath his feet, and is thusly carefully managed at all times. Perhaps, this ugly trait is to blame for his perpetually underfed condition, his hair taking in all of the food otherwise intended for the rest of the body. 

Brand Appearance: Absalom's brand is an unsightly thing - a symbolic representation of a wretched and bloated fly carved into his back between and over his shoulderblades with large and brutal strokes of a knife. The flesh around the mark is engorged and perpetually irritated, bloated and sensitive, the wound never quite healing fully and constantly seeping bloody pus and itching something fierce. The fly signifies the nature of sin as of an insidious disease of the soul, and marks the bearer as a bearer and spreader of a pestilence that can not be purged if allowed to take root - even a man that repents will be stained forever, like a recovering addict can never fully escape the craving for his drug. 

Personality: Absalom, at his heart, is a kind person. He is courteous, he is quick to empathize with other people and to want to help them and he is also quick to feel guilt at his own perceived wrongdoings. However, where spirit might be willing, the mind is weak and failing - he possesses a phenomenally flimsy amount of willpower. Where he is quick to be wracked with guilt and pity, he is just as quick to force himself to forget, or to consciously distract himself by one thing or another to avoid handling any difficult issues. While earnest in his desire to help initially, his bluster and ardor will quickly fade and he will begin to slack and seek easy ways out. He is quick to succumb to pressure and quick to forget any lessons he learned under that pressure, a man that readily bends to external force only to spring back into his initial position once it is no longer applied, having learned nothing. 

Background: Everything is shrouded by a strange veil inside his head - and when he tries to remember, or when some shard of his past is glimpsed, the memories slip away no matter how hard he tries to keep them. He rarely ponders this matter, as it is too sad to dedicate conscious attention to. He knows he was a helpful person, that he helped and cared - a healer, a physician perhaps?

Current Story: Absalom's freshest memory is waking up cold and naked in a gutter in the slums of a large city, roused by taunts and stones thrown at him by an urchin gang. He wandered the streets befouled with rabble both human and material for quite some time, begging and scrounging for sustenance before being taken in by a gathering of scum of similar level of misfortune and wretchedness - by banding together, vermin could better scavenge and protect themselves. When one of the gang was badly mauled by a guard dog, Absalom cemented his position as a valuable asset by displaying a startling capability for medicine and surgery, knowledge of which sprung up in his mind in a sudden flash of insight. From then on, things went slightly uphill, with him making a living as a doctor for the lowly and the poor, in exchange for anything they could share. His special power manifested itself during a particularly terrible period of famine, when he and his comrades were on the brink of death by starvation. Having saved the society of scum, he was unanimously crowned the beggar king of the city's underbelly. 

Weapon: A straight dagger with a seven inch blade, unbreakable and so thin it is impossible to see if you stare straight at the edge. It cuts any sheath one puts it in, and as such Absalom holds it in several layers of thick wool. The blade slips through almost any armour and leaves a wound so thin when it pierces flesh is invisible by eye and only bleeds on the inside, making it extremely hard to treat and very painful. Absalom received it as a payment from a man of foul temper and brutish persuasion that came to him in order to be treated from a startling variety of physical wounds and ailments and who left it on his table without a single word as he departed. Perhaps, he was simply trying to get rid of a murder weapon? 

Ability: Luxuria - "Everything you want, I have."
Absalom's power is to manifest the wants and cravings of other people into reality. All it takes is a drop of Absalom's blood and for him to speak aloud the wish as the object of one's lust springs into existence. Of course, the gifts come with a price, and a nuance - otherwise it would be too good to be true. A gluttonous man receives a mighty and delectable feast after which all other food not received from Absalom would seem stale and boring. A [i]hungry[/i] man would receive a sack full of hearty gruel that'd last him for a long time, but bring him not much pleasure from the taste, not ever fill him completely. A veteran  that would come to beg for his war wound to be healed would find a new arm where a stump once was - but one that is eternally cold to the touch and is callused and gnarled to be much more useful for holding a weapon than for caressing a loved one. An man wishing for riches would receive his coin and jewels, but from that it inspires greed and envy in all of his neighbours. However, it must be noted that everyone and anyone around is free to partake of the wish that someone else received - if you wished for money and received it, nothing prevents someone else from taking it from you. It is also should be noted, that this power can't create something that is not material in nature - if someone wishes for love or for death of his rival, for example the best Absalom could do is give the man an artificial doll that acts like the object of his love or a cup of poison respectively. 
He can also use this power offensively, to pelt a greedy man with a shower of gold or to drown a drunkard in boiling, scalding brandy. Due to the purity and simplicity their desires, Absalom almost instinctually surrounds himself with sycophantic addicts and small children.
