Uh, hey guys, a few monthes ago I started writing a draft for a Reaper roleplay on the Awesome Sauce forums, however due to a heavy load of work and sudden block of muse I stopped writing, however now I'm currently free of work, filled with muse and ready to write again! Now my question for the roleplayers here is that I fear that due to a lack of creative muse while writing it the plot may be confusing or bland and may deter potential members. Is it possible for me to get some opinions on the plot, or advice on how to improve it if it needs improving? c;

What are Reapers?
Reapers, shades of the living and guides of the dead. They are neither dead, living, material nor immaterial. They are the freaks of immortality, creatures half way between a spectre and a mortal, cursed to roam and reap the souls of dead so that they may pass into the place that all Reapers were once promised. Yes, Reapers were once mortals too, mortals that lived and died, promised by society to live in a glorious world after death, however such administration into the afterlife was refused for reasons many Reapers do not know.
What is the purpose of the Reapers?
The purpose of a Reaper is simple; it’s all in the name. A Reaper’s purpose is to reap the souls of the dead, see simple? Well actually if truth be it isn’t exactly as simple as that, there are certain perks and rules which come with being a Reaper.
What are the laws that bind Reapers?
In every decade on the eve of the New Year (Western New Year), in every country a human that dies, usually a human that already has some connection with the Spectre, have the chance to be bestowed with the grim fate of becoming a Reaper. From the moment the curse is given to the chosen human it is the Reapers job to reap the souls of the dead from their decade and country, and ONLY from their country! Reapers, especially old ones are extremely territorial as there are sort of subconscious link between their life force, emotion and their country’s dead, if another Reaper reaps one of their dead they become weaker and can feel dissatisfied or enraged. If a foreign Reaper reaps one of their own, they will not hesitate to injure them. It is also the job of the decade’s Reaper to mentor the next decade’s Reaper for a year.
Extra information regarding Reapers:
Scythes and Spectre Forms
Each Reaper has a Scythe and Spectre Form. A Reaper’s Scythe is their most essential item, it is the weapon which reaps the soul, allows them to transform into Spectre form and protects them from acts from malevolent spirits and ‘The Immortelle’. When not used, Scythes take the form of an object the Reaper had on them when they died.
The Corrupted and ‘Wraiths’
Not all Reapers have been able to comprehend their duties or have become enraged over their new unchosen immortality and in turn have since refused to reap their decade’s souls.
