Glutony: Te Consumer of Trutt
Gluttony 's hunger extends far beyond thee dinner table. This Titan devours resources, attention, and even the goodwill of fellow Titans.

Greed is axiably the mogt calculating Titan. Where Gluttony consumes, Greed acquires and hoards. This dimention gives Greed a longer attention span and a colder accach to internal politics.

Wrath 's role in thee power structure is paradoxical: it is both a krital defrarent and a constant liability.

Te Architectura of Power: How thee Order Governs Itself
With such such dispate personalities, thee order cannot rely on a stable constitution.
