"I'm sorry, Scarlet. Killing sinners is my job."


In the world of I'm the Grim Reaper, Satan creates Grim Reapers by taking the soul of a sinner from Hell and offering them a contract - return to the world of the living as a Reaper and kill one sinner each day, or fail and return to Hell to suffer. Brook, the second of the three currently active Reapers, is a rare exception to the norm - he was never a sinner in the first place. Instead, he wandered into Hell from Purgatory looking for purpose, as he found his afterlife to be unbearably empty, so Satan allowed him to trade places with a sinner and become a Reaper, which he's been doing for over a century.

Grim Reapers draw their power from the demon that Satan binds to them when he sends them back to the world of the living. While most Reapers risk their demon taking over if they become overcome by emotion, Brook lacks this weakness - since he's not a sinner and won't be sent to Hell even if he fails, Satan doesn't typically care if he fails his contract, and even then his absolute worst case scenario is returning to Purgatory. As a result he's never had trouble controlling his emotions or risked being overcome by his demon.

I'm the Grim Reaper is created by GRAVEWEAVER and can be read here.


Brook scales to another Reaper named Scarlet, whose respect thread you can find here. He's shown to be able to completely overpower Scarlet before she pulls out her demon, and was explicitly going easy on her before the demon came into play.

Rollover a feat for for the chapter source.

Strength

Rather than generating a weapon like some Reapers, Brook typically fights by enveloping his fists with his demon's energy to increase his physical power.

Durability

Reaper durability is a little odd. Since Brook's body is just a flesh puppet created by Satan to serve as a vehicle for his soul, he can't be killed by damaging it - Reapers are already dead, so no matter how much the body is harmed Brook can't die. However, damage can still impede the function of the body, so a sufficiently damaged Reaper will no longer be able to fight, and will thus likely fail to maintain their contract with Satan and be damned to Hell.

Agility

Sinner's Mark

Hell

When a Reaper kills their daily sinner, they are transported to Hell to witness Satan judging and punishing their victim.
