So, question for everyone. If you’re a magical being of some sort that supposedly blesses people, but you’re also known as a Reaper, what do you think that exactly means?

like ok, this sounds totally morbid but is is possible that a reaper could be blessing people with death? like putting people out of their misery and stuff...

[coinflipped]

It's entirely possible that could be the case.
It's not something I want to think about, though, but something I should keep an open mind about.

it's a better outcome than what reapers normally do, I think
but good point. nobody wants to think about that kind of outcome
it probably doesn't help that there's a lack of context but are you sure it's blessing in the first place?

[coinflipped]

I'm not sure if it's a blessing or some sort of mutation of a blessing. That's what I need more information on.

well like...what was actually said to make you wonder? if you can say, I mean

[coinflipped]

Most of my kind, we'll call them Seraphim for simplicity's sake, bless the land. Though I seem to do the opposite. I've seen it happen around me where I cause misfortune instead of blessings.

maybe it's possible that the instances that you remember are just once in a while. misfortune for every ten blessings?
what kind of misfortune?

[coinflipped]

In my memories, I don't know, but here? Things break, people trip over items that randomly fell in front of them, bottles of alcohol bursting open.

Stuff like that.

so bad luck
that doesn't actually sound so bad if it's just that! at least in knowing what'll happen it's easier to find a way to control it?
even if it is a mutated blessing or something it's still yours. even if you do not know how to use it now that doesn't mean you can't learn later

[coinflipped]

I'm hoping that I can learn. If only I could remember how then it'd make my life a lot easier, as well as everyone else's.

maybe there's a second part of that ability too that you don't have yet!
does that happen here? people getting abilities and stuff in parts
so far I've only heard of people getting them back in full...
