ABOUT: Bio Page
PERSONALITY:

Death is a nice guy. One might think he was a terrible being by his general appearance as a Reaper, but it's not true. He has a sense of humor and a sense of respect for beings who still hold their lives, but he also has a sense of duty and a need for order. There is a plan, and that plan should be followed. The plan is simple. Life gives and Death takes. There is always a timeline for these things for every living thing. There is always something to each life given that must be done before he steps in to take them away. When that plan is broken it annoys him, like with the case of Virginia. She has died several times now and each time, just before he could Reap her, she was given life back to her body. It bothers him greatly. Because of this he has gone to the extent of taking a mortal form and trying to figure this girl out.

Besides feeling wronged by Life for this Virginia girl's case, he is empathetic. He doesn't mourn the loss of a life, as he does understand why they re being taken, but sometimes when reaping children he feels it's unfair to remove them from the plan so soon. He knows why its done but it feels unfair to him sometimes. Not that he'd say that out loud. He keeps those kind of feelings close to his chest, keeping unbiased to it. He's generally pretty good about staying unbiased to a death.

Once around the Black Plague he had to split his Endless form into smaller mini reapers to manage to do the job properly. Thus he doesn't have to be there for every death, as he is there in other smaller forms. That leaves him free to take a mortal form and still have his job be taken care of. Because of this he feels he can do his job better and still investigate what the hell is going on with this one girl. He holds a pocket watch that allows him to know when he personally is needed some place else and does his job when needed. He will always do his job. He is very much a stickler when it comes to his job.

As a human he has to be careful not to lose his body. He once met a young man with cancer in a hospital who lived his life to the fullest. Videl, a very good young man who did all he could before he died. Death asked if he would mind his body being used a bit longer. There was no way to stop the death, and he would be welcomed to the afterlife, but could he use his body. The man agreed and since then Death has taken it all across the world, traveling with Virginia, trying to figure her out. He treats this body as if it were his own, taking care of it. After all the man who lived in it before was a very good man. Death respects that greatly and would do what he can to make this cancerous body last.

When faced with tough situations he does what he can to get through them. Clearly Life has thrown this at the people he's around and so there is a plan. He tries not to interfere as best he can. There are times however, that he has stepped in to try and help. The longer he's in this body the more he's likely to pitch in and try to help save a life. Which annoys him at the end of the day because he isn't meant to do that (or is he? The Divine are strange that way).

ABILITIES:

He's Death. His abilities are to reap souls and take them to the after life. He tends to open doors for those who can go to the afterlife and is not the one to choose which way they go. He is not Justice or Judgement, he is only the guide. When death happens, he awakes the soul and leads them to their door. From there it depends on how the human or creature lived their life while alive.

He can possess bodies however. Jump into a body and take control. He does this with Videl, the mortal body that he has taken over. He has healed it to the point that it is livable and has taken over inside of it. So in that case, when jumping into a body, he can do some mild healing. He has jumped out of his body, leaving it on the ground, jumped into someone else to heal them, and then returned to his own mortal form in the end. He doesn't like doing it though, because it tends to mess with the Divine Plan.

His watch tells when a person is going to die. If a human looks into said watch, it will tell them the time and day of their death. In a place like this that might not work at all. Not to mention he might not wake up with it at all, so this is kind of pointless.

In general he can be anywhere and everywhere at once, but when trapped in a mortal body he can't do spacial jumps like that.
