Description I'm drawing a series of pictures based on the 7 dead sins, 13 in total. All these sins are from a video game called Actraiser 2 for SNES. I'll be studying their character design and details of the level you find these sins on to try and find all the metaphors and symbolism they made.

Sloth 1: Sloth
Sloth 2:
Gluttony 1:
Gluttony 2:
Greed 1:
Greed 2: Greed
Envy 1: Envy
Envy 2:
Lust 1: Lust
Lust 2:
Wrath 1:
Wrath 2: Wrath
Pride: Pride

This demon is the sin Lust (Obviously ). In the game, the demon defeats the king and turns his land to ice, and keeps the king from tending to his queen, his people, his kingdom, or anything.

The female form obviously represents the sexual lust. The ice this demon creates represents the coldness of heart the object of lust a person lusts for, meaning it's dangerous. The cold also represents the "cold shoulder," by how the king is ignoring everything important as he chases after lust. (The cold breathe effect in picture implies the cold, but might make more ice references later if I color this)

The opposite of Lust is the heavenly virture Chastity. (To refrain oneself not only from sexual conduct, but also intoxications, maintaining good health and hygiene, to be honest with yourself and others, and to restrain oneself of distractions from things more important, especially distractions influenced by hostility, temptation, and corruption)
