True Sins

The True Sins are the commanding officers of the Darkbane army who serve under their commander, The One. The True Sins are the Baneish version of the Seven Deadly Sins, and are some of the most powerful Darkbane in the Baneish society. Only five True Sins are allowed at any time.
== Backstory ==
The True Sins are unknown to anyone outside of Baneish society, and are the commanding officers of the Riptors and Xephyrs. The True Sins are Darkbane who have proven themselves worthy to serve underneath The One. They are usually chosen from the most diabolical Darkbane in the army or general society. Being chosen to become a True Sin is an extremely lengthy process and often doesn't allow for many new members, even if a prior member is deceased.
The True Sins originated from the wishes of the Scorned King, who wished to have a group of thralls to do his bidding, but only the strongest would be allowed into the circle. The first selection of True Sins were comprised of the Scorned King's most trusted allies, all of whom have fallen in combat. These Sins set the precedent for how brutal and powerful the Darkbane could be, as people spoke of them for ages beyond their demises.
Now, the new True Sins are unknown to anyone outside of the inner circle that the Scorned King surrounds himself with, and their combat prowess is one of the most closely guarded secrets in Baneish society, as to not let any of their enemies gain an advantage over the Darkbane. The True Sins typically guard the Scorned King during ceremonies or cause havoc among parts of the city that the Scorned King wishes to be "kept in line".
== Selection and Induction ==
The True Sins are selected by The One and are selected by the amount of brutality they inflict on their opponents, their powers, and their ability to dispatch of foes. The True Sins are then brought together with the new member or members, and begin to train the new member in obedience, loyalty, and combat. If the member survives the training, which has a high probability of killing even the strongest Darkbane, they are brought in to a duel with The Scorned King to fight against him. If he deems them worthy, then they are brought into the circle of the True Sins.
The induction to the True Sins is a ceremony in which the True Sins each take a blood oath with the new member, them spreading all their power among each other to allow for a vague system of checks and balances. The new member then takes a blood oath with the One over the Draught of Lifeblood, thus bestowing part of their power into the new generation of Darkbane.
Due to the shared power of the True Sins and the One, if a member dies, then the other members gain back a portion of their power, making them deadlier than they were prior. This is one of the reasons the blood oath ceremony is so important, as it allows for both a security against mutiny by one of the members, and allows the other members to have a better chance to survive whilst a new member is being found.
