Marks -

There are 14 marks each corresponding to a certain god and sin/virtue, the marks themselves look like tatoos but as one performs more actions of the sin/virtue the mark can become bigger, brighter and even effect larger parts of the body and in extreme cases change ones physical form and abilities. Most actions to earn marks requires one to take lives (sins) or save lives (virtues) one will receive the mark upon their body at night after a very vivid dream. The marks are less about the action but more about the intent, just the simple act of killing someone can get you many marks depending on why you did it, say if you killed them because they wronged you (wrath), they had something you wanted (greed) etc etc. One cannot have marks of polar opposite sins and virtues (say greed and charity) instead the opposite mark will cancel out the other.

All marks begin black.
