I'm looking at making a character that is basicly a grim reaper a la the tv show Dead Like Me. I'm trying to stay close to the show and I got the supernatural powers pretty much figured out but i'm looking for some outside my group input, thanks in advance for the help. for my power set, i was looking at:
Living Dead (YS164) [-1] - he died and was "reaped" and joined the "Undead" as Rube put it
Flesh Mask (YS175) [-1] or Human Guise (YS176) [-0] - either works for the mortal body reapers like in the series, just not sure on which one yet
Ghost Speaker [-1] (YS169)- reapers can see and speak with the ghosts and spirits (gravelings were the only other spirit seen in the series)
Inhuman or Supernatural Recovery (YS185/186) - either will do, i'm leaning more to Supernatural cause in a few episodes Mason is seen with minor wounds and its mentioned many times that reapers heal really fast, but they dont seem to have a crazy regeneration rate to get mythic recovery.
The Catch (YS185) - This i need some thoughts on, nothing in the Dresdenverse has been seen in the show and never saw anything that they couldnt recover from. i was thinking about some kind of magical or like divine god like power (angels, demons, gods, ect.) I was also thinking about destoying the eyes, since theres the whole "the eyes are the window to the soul" thing and a reaper is basicly a soul inhabiting a body.
Now I was wondering about an "Soul removal" or "Reaping" power. As seen in the show, the Reapers can remove any soul from any body, not just the people scheduled to die and put the soul back in the body. but doing any "unscheduled reaping" has not so good consequence, so i'm not planing on using this power as an attack or at all. My GM is good with having a High Concept and Trouble Aspects that will cover my reaping job and the such. Also I dont plan on actually killing any humans since it seems that when a reaper kills a person, that person's soul pops out as a graveling and torments them. So should we leave this up as a "Power of Plot" power or make a custom power? and what would the refresh cost be since being able to remove someones soul at will seems really really OP.
Its an interesting character concept and plan on him being more skills and some light social, and not so combat heavy of a character. Feel free to leave any comments or thoughts, i like getting outside perspectives, thanks
