Personality: To Lust, life is always business. There’s no person more resourceful, cold, and dedicated than Lust. She takes great pride in her work, even though her sin isn’t pride.

Lust is incredibly calm. She’s level-headed, and is arguably the most level-headed of the homunculi. She approaches with each new target, manipulation, fight and battle with an aura of confidence and the professional scathing intimidation about her. She’s pure business. She’s as cold as one can make them, as she doesn’t regret anything. Taking children hostage? Threatening to wipe out an entire town? Causing rebellion and bloodshed for 250 years by manipulating others, which causes many women, children and people to be mindlessly killed by someone else while you laugh your ass off? Check. Not a single drop of remorse or emotion comes from this woman’s horrific actions. She’s practically emotionless when it comes to Father’s plans, forsaking all of them. The only use of emotions and values that a human has, which Lust disdains, is for Father’s plans. She can understand why humans act with emotion, but she sees little benefit in emotions. Lust looks down on humanity in general, calling them miserable pathetic fools and relishes in how easy they are to manipulate. She considers herself above them, which is easily given on how she proclaims Homunculi as the next wave of humanity. If they get the best of her, she admits it and they gain some respect but it’s not a good thing. She will be back, as she is exceptionally driven, and she’ll get the job done a second time.

Around homunculus, she adopts a more playful side. She also has high hopes for the rest of the Homunculus, repeatedly stating that they cannot fail. Around Gluttony, she’ll definitely treat him like an affection pet owner would treat her own pet. Gluttony means a lot to Lust - more than she lets on. Her patience for Gluttony, who’s intelligence and quality of living are below even the lowest human, definitely exceeds more than it should. She uses him as a chair and looks after him with a soft disposition. Calmly telling him not to eat the dead people, or using him as a chair. She can find Envy a bit grating at times, but still adores him. Sometimes she mocks him or personally triggers his violent temper but it never goes too far. Her other comrades always see a more playful side, as when she taunts Greed by singing, or talks to Wrath making a joke or two. She doesn’t really like Greed all that much as she considers him a traitor for betraying Father. She was also a bit too joyful at the prospect of him being melted alive. With Father, Lust has a devotion that rides far beyond the rest of the homunculus. She doesn’t have any other motives than serving Father, unlike the rest of the homunculus. Any orders from him are carried out as faithfully and swiftly as possible. She’s exceptionally obedient and everything she does is for Father. Never once does she stray from the path of obedience, instead she walks on the path Father has made for her.

Lust, when dealing with humans, is cruel and sadistic. For 250 years she’s been toying with humans, and it’s clear that enjoys doing so. She openly mocks them for causing bloodshed that she manipulated them into causing. She doesn’t like mass war or genocide, she finds it another one of the many flaws of humans. She takes things personally. She psychologically drains and toys with people. She also enjoys killing, but she never goes overboard and only eliminates people she would have to eliminate sooner or later. Personally, like, intimidating Doctor Marco and stabbing him once to show she’s not fucking around. Or leaving Mustang to bleed out with Jean Havoc going before him. This lets him know that he’s failed as a leader to save his subordinates, and he painfully bleeds out too. A painful psychological and physical shatter attack on Mustang. That’s probably the best way she receives pleasure. See, unlike the other Sins name sake, Lust isn’t a sexual person. She may look beautiful and sexy, but that’s not really Lust. The only way in which Lust is sexual is blood lust, in which she literally gets off on killing others. She licks the blood off her forehead as if it’s ice cream, and makes suggestive poses and innuendo as she fights.

Lust is very intelligent. For over 250 years she conned people repeatedly into causing massive rebellions, bloodshed and violence. Of course, she had connections with Central Command, but still doesn’t lighten the badass load. She’s also exceptionally observant and quick minded, with just a few observations she can deduce many things. This is showcased with the Fifth Laboratory, as she knows who was with Ed, what exactly Ed knows, and his connections. With that, she went on to investigate Hughes and Roy deducing and tracking what both know. In case the puppet mastering, manipulation and conning didn’t clue you in - Lust is exceptionally manipulative and deceitful. She’s able to pull off aliases and maintain these aliases and her actual evil persona separately, no matter how close things can get. She’s able to play nice to seduce people into her plans, as seen when she charms and acts like a sickeningly sweet sweetheart with him, which causes him to view “Solaris” (her alternate alias) with great adoration. She also has great pride in her nature as a homunculus, as Wrath reveals. She underestimates humans because she thinks that they’ll never be able to escape the vicious cycle she perpetuates. Bad things happened in Amestris because of her, and no one has bothered to stand up against it. With that, she rightfully presumes superiority over the rest of humankind. With this, she cleverly can insult them in what may seem like a compliment setting. She can generally be insulting or sarcastic with a very polite facade. In fact, it’s safe to say she is insulting or sarcastic with a very polite facade with everything and often! From Envy to Greed to Roy to Riza, no one is safe from Lust and her sick, demeaning sense of humor. She also hates annoying and arrogant men.

Strengths/Weaknesses:
Strengths:

She’s very, very intelligent and creative, as she’s able to con others into doing her work and eliminating them.
She’s agile, both mentally and physically
She’s exceptionally manipulative
With this, she can utilize a fake personality to make others think she’s a smart, kind girl. She can also feign empathy, something she doesn’t have.
She’s confident in her skills and is able to lead others in her plans

Weaknesses:

She’s really arrogant and tends to underestimate humans. This led to her downfall
She’s rather apathetic towards most people and her endeavors, which means, except for potential pawns, she’ll be a tad anti-social.
She uses her connections to aid in her plans, without the government/other homunculi/etc. she’s severely handicapped.
She’s very sadistic in battle, and it’s more of a personal slowly burn thing. This will not fly in the pokemon world.
She has no literal fucking motives besides obeying Father and ...there’s no Father in here and an Envy from another world WHAT DO?

Samples
First Person Sample: [ Lust, of course, was smart enough to know that the pokemon around Mahogany Town outclassed hers completely. This wouldn’t be much of a problem but she needs to get to Envy. With this, she decided to do what she does best: manipulate some people to escort her. Oh, and gain some good publicity too.

The video feed pans to Lust staring into the camera, doing her damned best to soften her eyes ]

Good evening, fellow people of Johto. Now that I am aware of my pleasant situation [ Her voice marks the sentence with some noticeable sarcasm around the pleasant ], I feel that it would be best to forsake this little town. The implications of arriving here aren’t very pleasant. [ A slight nod to the fact that she’s been assigned a rocket, without a choice ] With this, I am planning to move to Ecruteak.

[ A small pause before she continues ]

However, the hostile pokemon would make it hard for a person that just arrived, correct? I’m sure you’ve all experienced the toughness of your first arrival. [ Okay, so she can’t resist jabbing at all of the pathetic creatures here! But she’ll still keep a straight, slightly concerned face showing it wasn’t an insult, even though it totally was ]

With this, I request that someone, or a group, could let me travel with them and escort me to Ecruteak. Staying here and aligning with these failures isn’t the wisest choice. [ She states that fairly caustically ]

I appreciate all offers in advance, and I fully intend to reimburse you for your kindness. [ And now she’ll grin and sow the seeds for further manipulation ] I’m known for having a nasty habit: over-compensation.

Third Person Sample:

Lust wasn’t able to get a great sleeping last night. Keeping Edward Elric out of Father’s business was quickly working itself into becoming a chore with each passing day. She kept herself up, contemplative and tense on the line Edward was straddling on.

He was close to learn nearly everything. Lust didn’t recall when she fell asleep, but she sure as hell could recall when she woke up. The first thing she noticed when she woke up was the lack of her philosopher’s stone. Her entire core. To say Lust was floored was an understatement. She can’t exist without that piece of jewelry lodged into her. With this, she vaulted up immediately glaring around at her surroundings, before attempting to shoot her ultimate lance as a test.

No luck. With this, she cautiously got out of the bed before glancing around. She was still in her usual clothing, including her long coat. With a slight glare, she notices the note. She picks it up and reads it.

Welcome, new Team Rocket member,
Once you wake, please change into proper uniform and wait for instructions. Feel free to have a look around, but don't stray too far.

Thank you for being part of our winning team.

- Rocket Boss
Nope. Never. Lust, for the past two-hundred and fifty years has dedicated herself to Father, and she’s not going to trade teams because some note from her kidnappers said so. After a very, very, brief glare where it shows she’s truly pissed off, she tears up the note before turning her attention to the pokeball. She was curious as to what it could contain, it looked like a capsule of something important, but to Lust’s surprise, a black bipedal weasel formed itself out of a red silhouette before calling out its name, “Sneasel! Sneasel!!”

“A Chimera?” Lust sighed. She never had faith in these pieces of fodder, but if they’re taking away her abilities, this chimera is the only thing she has. “All right, Number 218. Let’s go.” Lust scooped up the rest of the supplies and the pokegear. She figured the least they can do for taking away her powers is give her some items as reimbursement. She wasn’t going to check her supplies or the machine here. This territory was too strange, foreign, suspicious and hostile to Lust, and that’s really saying something. Not to mention, she’s not going to be in a building affiliated with this pathetic Team Rocket any longer than she has to.
