Character profiles go here right? I've seem to have lost most of my information on Legion, but that is fine. Being as he is, anything is possible. How to best describe him is a whole other matter...
As a basic DnD character you could consider him a human having perfect 12 stats all around, with another ten points which are placed and can be moved anywhere he pleases. In essence, those ten stat points is his very substance that makes him a shapeshifter. Thus if he threw those ten points to Dexterity, you can consider that he strenthened his eye sight, legs, and center of gravity. He only needs so much to maintain his body, the rest is to strengthen it. Thus is why he can throw his substance off so make several clones of himself.
He's classless, religionless and tries to keep a neutral balance. He does every skill possible without ranks, and feats that require certain levels in attributes are gained naturally when he throws his substance around. Equipment wise he wears nothing more than ordinary clothing, unless otherwise noted, except for one piece of gear (jacket, scarf or hat usually) which has pockets lined with... one could say portable holes and bags of holding. As such a near infinite amount of items with a near infinite amount of weight can be stored on his person... though retriving items is a whole different story.
As for combat, face it, he sucks. Legion has more fun mimicking the attacks of others than using his own, often the attacking style of choice being very ineffective for the type of battle given. If he actually didn't play around, he might be half decent.
As a spell caster, he starts to dabble in areas other than the basic DnD realm. Leave it to him to throw icicle shards, fireballs, earthquakes and just about every other element at you. Flare and freeze arrows. Expect a Dragon Slave if you're really daring. Or for a nice turn of events, expect him to pull out an Evoker from P3 and shoot himself in the head for an Agi or Bufu. His persona? Probably himself xD . He might even perform projection magic, from Fate/Stay Night if in the mood.
Perhaps his physical features? His body is made out slimes and oozes, more or less. Pretty much a substance with no real structure to itself. As such, it is because of his will that his body takes shape as he wills. Don't ask about his body before this, it doesn't matter. As such, his only scars are ones that he keeps as a reminder and not because they are unremovable. He stands usually at about 5'8" or 5'9" but his height varies depending on his mood, the people he is talking to and the general height of the populace. If he's speaking to giants as a giant... well he's pretty damn tall.
His hair and eye colour are usually brown, though that doesn't mean he doesn't have fun with polka-dot red and yellow hair and puke green eyes. He just rather blend in as needed.
His regenerative powers can be considered like this. He has 1000 mp, any death he would incur will take off 900 of that mp. For example with Sei's arrow volley, he probably would have died, but rather his regenerative abilities would not allow him to die until a second death, by other means or given enough time between fatal blows. It is a defensive mechanism mostly used for a scenario where his substance no longer was able to shift as he pleased. One could say he regains at a steady 10 mp per hour. 15 if he is resting and 25 if he is truely resting (not holding back the sins).
Of course this is all figuratively speaking. There are no such numbers in combat.

Finally finished some preliminary thoughts. Woot! Sin capabilities which in a sense are his own skills. No real mimicing, though since he invokes the spirits of the sins inside him... they aren't really his own skills either. sweatdrop Each sin has about three to four applications, General everyday use, support, defensive and attack. More will come or be edited as I remember them or correct them to balance Legion's range of skills out.
Wrath
Wrath General Application: General Wrath causes him to be more or less daring with getting under people's skin. He'll annoy the victim until they snap or are extremely close to it. At times he'll also be more easily provoked and will quickly turn hostile on the slightest offences.
Wrath (Combat) Support/Defence: It causes Legion to go Berserk, though he is trained enough not to attack allies. Actually what it does is give him the ability to not flinch against most attacks as well as enhanced strength. A sliced off arm wouldn't slow him down much.
Wrath (Combat) Attack: It gives Legion next attack a 100% critical/mortal/vital hit with a 50% increase in accuracy too. If the target is too far to connect with a melee attack or the weapon is a ranged type weapon which misses, a cutting wind slice will connect with 100% accuracy due to the reverse of cause and effect. The effect happened so the cause however impossible occurs.
Lust
Lust General Application: We've all seen Legion's... well playful manner. That is more or less its extent. Depending on the strength of lust, he'll go beyond just women and be exceptionally friendly towards males too. If he gets close to being lucky... he may or may not have the willpower to reject a playful night.
Lust (Passive) Defence: Well you just can't go around making everyone pregnant right? So unless he wills it, no matter how many times he does it... well there is NO chance for a child. End story. Might change.
Lust (Combat) Support: It causes an area ranging from 30 to 100 feet around him to give an effect of a gradual aphrodisiac. At the 30 foot range it takes about 15 minutes to cause a fairly strong willed person to succumb. 30-45 for expectional beings and infinity for those like himself who have an affinity with Lust. At the 100 foot range the effect could take up to 15 days to affect the normal population. What's with these multiples of 15 anyways? Maybe I should change them to 69... rofl
Lust (Combat?) Attack: This one might need editing later... or complete removal. Who knows? Anyways, this one causes his target to suddenly... well orgasm. Probably best to use as a confusion sort of attack. Once again... who knows?
Envy
Envy General Application: While he doesn't openly say it and the mun doesn't often point it out, he's jealous of a lot of things. Talented cooks, happy couples, important people. There was something everyone else had that he could honestly say he was a bit jealous of. Bard's singing skill, Aoi's information hub, etc. etc.
Envy (Combat/Passive) Support/Attack: Envy causes him to become jealous of his opponent in whatever way from general to specific. From his/her overall skills to his/her ability to cook steaks. In battle it forces him to be in par with his opponent in all respects whether his natural skill is above or below the opponent. If he is fighting a swordsman with skills much higher than himself, he will suddenly have the ability to be the man's equal. Passively, if he wants, he can be on par with his targets in any skill. His jealousy causes his very fiber from body to mentallity and knowledge to change so that he can be on par or surpass his target.
Envy (Passive) Defence?: It's not really defensive, but it effectively hurts him. He doesn't often say a word about his jealousy, which allows it to devourer him from the inside. It is more of a result of being possessed and using their powers.

Pride
Pride General Application: He's over confident, usually about bets and games. He'll take anything with at least his own calculated 25% chance of winning. Other times... he'll do it anyways!
Pride (Combat) Support/Attack: Pride causes him to never be first to fall. It would hurt his pride of course. Even if he is a bloody mess who can bearly move or is cut into pieces, he'll always get back up and fight however poorly that would be. He isn't ever considered dead until his opponent falls first at which point if he has the energy too, will revive. This forces the worst possible situation resulting in a draw.
Sloth
Sloth General Application: Eventually he'll have the pang to just be absolutely apathetic or just plain old lazy. That's about it. Maybe his voice sound pretty monotone too?
Sloth (Combat) Attack/Support: It pretty much acts like an area sleep spell, changing to a gravity spell to those immune to sleep and as a last measure, apathetic if they are both sleep and gravity change resistant. It has a 30 foot range, centered about the target.
Sloth (Combat) Defence: Similar to Wrath's Berserking, he doesn't flinch to most attacks because the speed pain messages relay in his body are increased to minutes instead of milliseconds. He pretty much is oblivious to how badly his body is injured. If an arm is sliced off, it'll only fall off after the delay for pain messages is up.
Greed
Greed General Application: Still unsure. Likely along the lines of wanting seconds when it comes to food. Occasional theft of small items he deems "won't be missed". Really it's a pretty minor sin compared to the rest.
Greed (Combat) Attack: A magical fire that burns everything but can be controlled. Yup. Pretty boring.
Greed (Combat) Support/Defence: Upon use, it causes his selected target(s) and himself to shift planes to a private battle ground. He wants his battles, his blood, his fight. Greedy for a fight yes?
Gluttony
Gluttony General application: He has a pretty big stomach and therefore needs to eat a lot. As well, more than half the time the amount he consumes tends to rip apart his stomach. He loves food. He'll almost always try to get some when other people are eating too. Unless he ate already of course.
Gluttony (Combat-ish) Attack: His target suddenly becomes famished. Some people are just that much stronger with a full stomach... of course other people are stronger cause they want to finish the battle quickly and eat... a double-edged skill.
Gluttony (Passive) Support/Defence: It allows Legion to regulate his energy use per day. In short, he can survive without eating for a month if he had a large meal right before. Deserts and other water dry places reduces the length by roughly ten days.
