Seven deadly sins
From Charmed
The Seven deadly sins are a list of seven of the worst sins as listed by early Christian teachings, condensed into sin balls by the Source. ("Sin Francisco"). In 2001, a Demonic Infector infects the Charmed Ones and Leo with the sins that they have recently been exposed to. Prue is infected with Pride, as she often believes herself to be able to vanquish any demon because she is a Charmed One and because she thinks she is the strongest sister, even if this is not the case. Piper is infected with Gluttony as she had recently been over indulging Leo with clothes, food etc. to prove she is a good wife to the Elders. This is why Leo was infected with Sloth, as he was likely to have become more lazy because of Piper's over-induglence of him. Phoebe was infected with Lust, as her and Cole had been very sexually active recently.
