[color=gray]"There's too many out there Krant."

"Ain't never [i]too many.[/i] You kill em all and we'll be just fine. They're terrorizing this city and I won't let that happen."

"Just... Some of them haven't done anything wrong. This is the same thing as murdering a random person on the street, dammit!"

"For fucks sake Rudert. It ain't the same. They're killing people and you [i]know[/i] it. It's been all over the news and it's about time to put a stop to this shit."

"...Whatever you say Krant. In the end, it's your ass on the line."[/color]

A small city with an average population. There are good people and a whole lot of bad ones. A place full on humans, humans, and Reapers. Reapers are somewhat human. 

Humans born with low level powers and Reapers born with somewhat higher level powers. 

In the light, Reapers appear exactly like any other common human that you would see walking on the street without a care in the world. However, each of them have have a symbol on them that sets them apart from the rest of the humans.[/color]

[color=gray]The mark of death.[/color][/center]

[color=gray]Yes, it sounds extremely dramatic but that was the name given by the humans. The mark is usually visible. On rare occasions it could even be on someone's cheek. And some Reaper's cover them up which is, in fact, [i]illegal.[/i] At night, the Reaper's look more pale. Their eyes are typically darker and a lot of them go out more at night. Anything that humans don't understand, they fear. The Reapers are like the classic Grim Reapers. However, it doesn't have to be a he and they don't need to wear a cloak. The Reapers were born Reapers and they know when someone is about to die and how to collect their soul. When someone near them is about to die, they feel something. The human doesn't have to be in that room. It could be on another block but the Reaper [i]will[/i] find you. Most of the time, people beg the Reaper's not to take their soul right before they die but that isn't how it works. Reapers don't want to take anyone's soul but it's how life works.

You live. You die. You do it all over again. 

People don't understand that. However, some do. Some are even friends with Reaper's because Reaper's are pretty normal. They were born to put souls to rest but like anything else in the world, there are good and there are bad. Nowadays, more and more Reapers are sick and tired of the blatant prejudice against them. The police quite obviously have not set up the law fairly. They are also tired of their friends and family getting killed for no reason. Reaper's can die. It just takes a bit more to kill one than it does a human. You would need a weapon made out of Arklain. This material was found in 2X9X by Reaper's themselves. And it led to the beginning of their own downfall. Of course, it is [i]extremely[/i] hard to get this and most places have made it illegal though you could get it on the black market for a hefty price. Even with the weapon, it takes more than a few stabs to finally kill a Reaper. 

[b]However, Arklain has the ability to make a common human's power more useful when they are holding it. Of course, if their power is useless overall, it may not do much in a battle.[/b]

Back to the good and bad Reaper's. The good ones are good. Honest, kind, and even gentle when they take someone's soul. Taking someone's soul using a synth may seem impossible to do gently but they make it possible. However, bad Reaper's are different. They have been around for a long time and now they're finally getting the attention that they want. Evil Reaper's take people's soul before they are even ready to go. A Reaper can only seize a soul when it is near ready to leave. 90% is the amount that souls are ready to leave the body when they are near death or already dead because a soul will [i]never[/i] be fully prepared to leave. However, if the soul is at 60 to 70%, that means a Reaper could still take hold of it but they are not supposed to. These are mostly people that have life threatening diseases, have just been in an accident, a coma, have just been shot, and a few more possibilities. Reaper's are beginning to break this law and are going for the kill before they're supposed to. All that means are there are more and more humans that are beginning to prepare for whatever comes at them and even try to kill them before the Reaper's get a chance to.[/color]
