curse
the curse refers to one of two things; the power bestowed upon the unfortunate, or the fact that each horse has a sin, and is separated by the sins. the two are generally connected.
see also: power
power
each sin has it's own power, or set of powers. on SV, powers are regulated by a points system for 0 to 1500 points, or 0 to 500 posts. we have tried, though, to leave the powers open for interpretation. just don't be too out there, we created the ppints system for a reason. the power is related to the sin it belongs to.
sin
on the island, your sin defines who you are. the sins are pride, lust, wrath, gluttony, sloth, anger, and greed. a greed unfortunate, one cursed with the 'greed' sin, is more likely to hang out with other greed unfortunates. to the horses of the island, a greend unfortunate is greed. the horse of the sin defines to the other sins what the sin means.
unfortunate
one cursed with the power of one of the sins. mainly used in the context of the sin. ex, lust unfortunate or a lust unfortunate. occasionally used separately to refer to the residents of the island. ex, an unfortunate or the unfortunates. a cursed unfortunate does not always bear the personality of the sin cursed with. some traces of the sin will remain. for example, an envy unfortunate will be far more unhappy with his or her situation than a pride unfortunate.
vice
a vice is a member of the modern replica of the old Seven Vices. a vice acts as a royal for the land belonging to their sin, and has authority over all the other herd leaders in their land, as well as a 'vice land' of their own. together, the Seven Vices are supposed to form a sort of council, but such things are long forgotten.
