Envy

''A madman dances and cavorts before you, as does the madman's dance hall around you. His long, belled hair jingles merrily as he comes to a stop before you and extends a hand inviting you to join in. Behind him spin other dancers, their faces locked in ricktuses of pain and anguish as they celebrate a ball that never ends.''

Envy is one of the seven Principalities of Hell in Wheel of Fire. He is unalterably and undeniably insane, but is also the most restrained and least violent of the great powers of Hell when sound of mind.

Personality
Envy is manic and unpredictable. He referrs to himself in the third person and seems to forget conversations as they happen, though he insists he only gets things "out of order." He maintains the image of a charming aristocratic gentleman, managing his estates and entertaining his "guests," but many in Hell fear Envy, for the Principality is mercurial and unpredictable, and has been known in the past to exhibit a horrible beserker's fury when his mask slips away.

Even so, Envy stands out amongst his peers as having the most agents at his disposal, both within Hell and without. He is especially potent in his dealings with mortals, and commands a strange empathy with outsiders of Hell that bewilders and confuses the plans of those arrayed against him.

Domain
Envy's domain is a tall tower of impossible design that stabs at the firmament of Hell, and is visible nearly everywhere in Hell as a long, jagged line standing up from the horizon. Though its many floors vary in their purpose, including banks, jails, public baths and an expansive brothel of single-room stories, the main floor is a circular dance hall decorated in nauseating colors and shapes, where Envy's guests dance forever, bound to his will and his manic whims.

It is said that Envy's domain conceals a frightful and strange secret. What that secret is remains undiscovered, though Envy is more than willing to tell those who meet him his latest take on what he is hiding away.

Powers
Envy's strength lies in his madness and ability to assume the powers and forms of others. Envy doesn't make plans, bets, or anything that runs parallel to coherency or common sense; rather, he relies on quick thinking and wit to outsmart his peers. This makes him a frightful opponent for those seeking to take advantage of him, but also makes Envy unlikely to seriously threaten the other Principalities. This might be a blessing in disguise, as many find Envy's domain a sort of 'neutral ground' for discussion, guaranteed by the safeguards of a gentlemanly host.

Envy's granted powers are themed around chaos, insanity and random chance. His preferred nautral weapons are bite attacks.
