Alex sighed heavily under his helmet. He didn't have time for this, but now he was wondering, 'Why am I in my Ranger suit?'. And in a forest of all places.
"I don't think snacks will be doing us much good if what I saw coming here reaches us." He said, slipping his device back onto his belt. "About...what, a quarter of a town I passed though earlier was rotting,...but for some reason, I don't recall what happened when I hit the city limits. Or, for that matter, why I'm here."

"You win? Win what?" Alex asked. He looked around, hoping to not see Decade, Kiva, or any of the other problem folks he had encountered earlier; Their victims often sounded like they were the winners of the lottery, even though the opposite was often true.
Well, there IS no winning, but we've covered that enough times. Let them have their fun, their will\souls\other-thing-of-value will be drained\forfeited\checked at the door.
So relax spandex dood.
But a slight caveat to your powers there: They only work in this thread. So you'll have to compete with the others for food. Have fun with that

"No." Alex thought. Had Kiva been this quick to act?
"Listen to me. Whatever you were given that makes you think that, leave it with me." Alex then held out his gloved hand. "If you're thinking of pulling my soul free from me, my suit will counter it, and I promise you, the spirit of an enraged werewolf is never friendly."

"Yeah, I thought it was a complete stretch also when I was first told about it; Me being able to use the essence of a legendary creature to make myself into a superhero? I'll be frank, I didn't believe it either at first, but, it's true."
Alex gripped his fists, making the leather of his gloves squeak and scrunch. "And it's not just me. My comrades have similar powers, but my job is safeguarding lives first."

"I don't know. Maybe the other Rangers trusted us because we assisted them more than once in their own duties. Or, it could be that the spirits of these creatures chose us because we are whom they see as worthy of their help."

- For the record, I'm basing some of this RP's design on a game called Geist: The Sin Eaters [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geist:_The_Sin-Eaters#Archetypes], which is based off the World of Darkness RPG.
When people die in this game, they have a chance of being taken by a Geist, a powerful spirit that lives off the body like a parasite, but grants the host life after death, minus the soul.
And, these geists come in five flavors, based on the cause, or in some cases, near cause, of death:
* The Torn - The Torn are called the Bleeding Ones, and the victims of Malice, and they are those who die from violence.
* The Silent - The Silent are called the Starving Ones, and the victims of Neglect, and they die from deprivation, such as suffocation, starvation, and heartbreak.
* The Prey - The Prey are the Eaten and the Drowned, and the victims of the Elements. They are those taken by the wild, from exposure, animal attacks, and drowning.
* The Stricken - The Stricken are called the Ravaged Ones, they died of disease, illness, or poison.
* The Forgotten - The Forgotten are called the Lightning-Struck, they are victims of random chance.
