About

This is a heartless monster who preaches that physical desire is all important. This demon holds sway over a number of individuals who wield tremendous power in this part of the city. Even some kings and queens have come under the influence of this fiend.

At the same time, Lust is also on the streets tempting ordinary citizens.

Intense Wanting. The hot-tempered fiend preys on those who have lost their way. This demon tempts them to follow their most carnal desires. Once Lust uses her charms, most individuals can’t resist temptation.

Symbiotic Seduction. This monster isn’t interested if relationships have a healthy balance. Lust is violent and will push her agenda any way she can. She wants all creatures to follow their chaotic, primitive urges. The demon is a sworn enemy of the celestial known as Chastity.

Awful Addictions. Some of those who come into contact with Lust end up as addicts. The addictive nature of desire can destroy lives, relationships, and families. Many of these addicts end up wandering for the rest of their lives.
