Original storyline! woohoo!
There are many belief's about death, or more specifically, death gods. The Japaneses believe in shinigami. To the Europeans, there was one angel, the angel of death, who killed people. there were to many to count. however, there is, in actuality, multiple "reapers" so to say, that pass down their power from generation to generation. in fact, there is an underground city filled with reapers. each of them has a single, simple job: to find and kill those who's time has come. in simpler terms, they are death. Families are in charge of certain area's, however, only one member of the family has the reaping power at any given time. they all have similar powers, such as flotation, but they all have something that makes them unique.
A BRIEF HISTORY: The first reaper was what started the "Grim Reaper" look. he chose the look of a black cloak, and a skeleton body. his son spawned the "angel of death" which was similar to the Grim Reaper, but with multiple differences. for instance, he had black raven wings, his cloak did not cover his head, and when he was about to take a life, he would let out a maniacal laugh that even the living could hear. all the looks of death gods were created off of how each reaper looked, however, not all reapers utilized a scythe. many used sword, axes, knives, daggers, even guns and clubs. the reapers were not limited by their weapon style. about 1000 years after the death of Christ, The first reaper tournament was held. the reaper tournament, since then, has been held every few years, where the first reaper, still alive, would watch the young reapers do battle, and show off their skills. originally, it was a small scale tournament, however, as time progressed, so did the tournaments magnitude. currently, all the contestants are taken to an island with a single massive arena in it. outside were two separate schools, each governed by a different reaper.the schools were named: The grim campus, and the Institute of reaping. the reapers would come to the schools, learn how to fight, take specialized classes, and then they would enter the tournament to learn who was the best. The prize was one wish. the one thing that the reaper wanted more than anything in the world, and it would be granted.
