Issue with Alisae's part of the article. Was adding a new image to it, that of Minfilia HW onward appearance, only for that to break Alisae's part of it. What's wrong with it??????

Can anyone confirm that the following entry was intended by the game? This is literally the first time I've ever heard of the Scions representing the Seven Deadly Sins. Ryne isn't even a Scion and despair isn't even one of the sins. This comes across as Fan Wank more than anything.

Seven Deadly Sins: In Shadowbringers each of the Scions represents a different sin to contrast their angelic enemies:

  • The Warrior of Darkness represents Gluttony in a rare example of the sin being only represented by the excess itself, the Warrior is known to have mastered multiple forms of combat, taken up several trades, acquired legendary weapons and armor that cost about as much as a fully furnished house, may own a house that may very well be a mansion, and is filthy rich by the time they arrive to the First, but, as with any expansion, they will jump to the chance of learning more things, obtaining more gear and even better weapons and battle new foes. It also applies to their desire to save as many people as they can regardless of the cost to themselves, to the point that they declare that they will protect everyone on Norvandt when convincing Chai-Nuzz to construct a massive Talos to let them scale Mt. Gulg.
  • Alphinaud represents Pride, all of his Character Development has been around moving past his pride and being more down to earth, so it's only inevitable that the expansion will test him with Vauthry, a twisted conclusion of his own previous prideful nature.
  • Alisaie is Greed, in Shadowbringers Alisaie finally begins to actively stride towards everything she wants, which are quite a number of things that are considered impossible: obtaining a cure for Primal tempering, a cure for Sin Eater corruption, becoming the equal to the Warrior of Light, among other things.
  • Thancred is Wrath, still dealing with Minfilia's death has left his temper noticeably touchy, especially around the new Minfilia, who he struggles between seeing as a daughter or just a remainder of his failure so he is overly strict.
  • Minfilia is Envy, she is constantly weighed down by the image and memory of the original Minfilia, wanting to be more like her rather than be herself, even after she becomes Ryne this sin still haunts her until the end of the expansion.
  • Urianger is Sloth because of his unwillingness to talk to his colleages about the true effects of the Light and inability to adapt the plan to Emet-Selch's presence, things nearly imploded on the Scions and nearly lead to the Warrior almost turning into an Eater.
  • Y'shtola represents Despair, having been exposed to the First longer than most of her compatriots and losing faith in Urianger has caused her to be more cynical and she spends most of the storyline despairing over her inability to save the Warrior from the ever increasing Light.
  • The Exarch, or rather G'raha Tia represents Lust, but just like the Warrior's Gluttony has nothing to do with food, the Exarch's desire has nothing to do with sex, rather he desires peace and a better future and is determined to obtain them, no matter who he has to fight, lie to even his idol, or kill even himself.

Ok, it's been nearly two weeks and there's been plenty of time for rebuttals. I'm removing the above due to the reasons I've mentioned.

Should we try to find better pics for the Scions? The ones they have are pretty low-quality.

Can use the offical renders perhaps?

^ The general guidelines of TV Tropes generally prefer character images with transparent backgrounds, so official renders seems like the best choice.

Phase 1 of replacing the Scions with higher quality renders is done. More to add later.
