Once upon a time, Master Devil got bored of everything going right on Earth. In order to stop his boredom, he created the personification of the seven deadly sins in order to corrupt poor human souls. Fortunately or unfortunately, the said sins created an askblog on tumblr.
And that is how the whole Sinverse started. Deviant artist, Kumkrum decided to created her own personification of the seven deadly sins and also did the bonus of making an askblog for them on tumblr. She then introduced the cardinal virtues then the counterpart virtues. The four horsemen of the apocalypse make an appearance, as well.
The first sinblog got so popular that spawned many other sinblogs and their counterparts, virtueblogs, namely:
