You’re rarely going to bump into HOPE as they’re quite shy, and if you look them in the eye, they’re going to fly away. Not to worry, though; Hope is just like that for the most part and doesn’t like being looked in the eye. Their main form is that of a young girl with a poufy white afro, and they’re often seen wearing inspirational tees (with their favorite being the one shown). You’ll never see Hope without a smile on their face, and just looking at it makes you feel happy. They’re cute and optimistic, which makes meeting them one of the best occasions you’ll ever have.
 
If summoners encounter Hope, they’re bound to feel positive and confident about the future and they would also persevere in anything they do. These are effective in countering Despair, the sin opposite Hope.
 
Hope’s emblem is a brightly shining star, which can also link to their lantern (which they carry around a lot) and main animal form, a firefly. Sometimes the virtues see a moving light at night and think it’s them. While Hope is bashful, they also like to give others a little scare, sometimes to the annoyance of the other virtues. But to spot the correct light, it’s a bit bluer than what stars normally are. If you do catch Hope in their firefly form, don’t trap them; they hate the sensation. Instead, allow them to travel along with you.
