Deadly Sins
The Seven Deadly Sins, often abbreviated as the Deadly Sins or individually as sin, are the seven corrupted fragments of the Original Sin. The tainted magic embodying Eve Moonlit's remains was split into the seven sins by Hansel and Gretel before being spread across the world. Each sin has an accompanying Demon of Sin that later possesses an object, corrupting it with its magic and turning it into a vessel of sin.

Deadly Sinners
The Seven Deadly Sinners, often abbreviated as Sinners or Deadly Sinners, are seven individuals fated to commit the epitomes of sin after possessing a vessel of sin. They are chosen due to their insecurities that make them vulnerable to the Demons of Sin. After becoming possessed by the vessels they own, the sinner commits atrocious acts against humanity that culminates into the epitome of their vessel's respective sin.

Demons of Sin
The Demons of Sin are the malevolent beings that possess each vessel of sin. Each demon holds influence over one of the Seven Deadly Sins and they are the source of the vessels' power. The Demons of Sin possess their vessels' owner and sway them to commit the vessel's deadly sin, often by manipulating their wielder's insecurities and whispering encouragements to them. After possessing a person, the demon can have their host undergo a demonic transformation. The Demons can assume the form of either their owner or someone they know and can mimic their voice. However, they are unable to influence those who have a carefree personality, free of any worries or anxieties that the demons can take advantage of.

Demon Contracts
Demon Contracts, also called contracts with the devil, are binding covenants made between a Demon of Sin and a human who utilizes the powers of the demon's respective vessel of sin. The contract can be done willingly with the Demon, allowing the human free access to the powers of the vessel of sin in exchange for possession by it; in contrast, it can be made unintentionally if the person accidentally taps into the vessel's powers. According to Clarith, the legend of the sea is a pact with a demon.

Vessels of Sin
The vessels of sin are the objects the Demons of Sin have chosen to inhabit after being split from Eve Moonlit's Original Sin. Over the course of history, they came into the possession of different persons, groups, and organizations and have caused calamities because of their influence. Because of the individual Demons dwelling within them, each vessel has unique magical powers. Similarly, anyone who comes in contact with vessel can be affected by its Demon's sphere of sin. While a demon can possess a being, their essence remains in their vessel and can therefore be magically sealed to trap the demon and nullify the vessel's effects. Ma claims that if all the vessels of sin are collected, the collector's wish will come true.

Epitomes of Sin
The epitomes of sin are the events that occur when one of the Deadly Sinners gain possession of a vessel of sin and, under the influence of a Demon of Sin, commit the respective vessel's sin. The epitomes, unlike most events caused by the vessels of sin, are the quintessential acts of the vice committed by a Deadly Sinner that usually results in the death of one or more individuals. The reason the vessels of sin and their demons desire to cause these catastrophes is unknown. Many of the epitomes of sin become infamous events in Evillious' history.

Sin Fragments
A Sin Fragment is a term used in relation to the vessels of sin and, more generally, the Seven Deadly Sins. Elluka Clockworker is the first to coin the term when referring to the Four Mirrors of Lucifenia after considering the notion that the single vessel, the mirror, was split into several parts. The term is later used by Gallerian Marlon to refer to the sins themselves, likely because they were pieces of the Original Sin.

Awakened Vessels
The awakened vessel of sin are the vessels of sin that assume human forms and take on new names for themselves. In some cases, an awakened vessel shares characteristics with its Deadly Sinner and bears resemblance to them. After awakening, the entities continue to wield their vessel's powers and keep their forms even after its powers are drained. Many of the vessels awaken while in Gallerian's Theater. The purpose for their awakening and its significance is unknown.
