Hitorigoto-

The world of monologue, a world where only the user exists, and only them by themselves. In a city, full of people who are already dead, full of others like them, full of lies, deceit. It is a world that could be called the afterlife.

In the world of Monologue, Hitorgoto, all humans cannot die, when you "kill" someone on the street, you can come around the next minute or so, and they'll still be walking, and their dead body, gone. People go on with their daily lives here too, but when they die, they come back, as if nothing had happened.

It goes the same for buildings, when a whole building is destroyed, after a few minutes, the building would reappear, as if undamaged. But, for buildings, there is sign that it is regenerating, like bricks would begin to fly into place.

The people who are aware of all this, are called the Speakers, they are aware of all this, are not seen by the ignorant people, can still harm them... But the Speakers have their own fight, the trivial matters of these ignorant people are not theirs.

The Speakers have a peculiar power, called Noise, it comes from their music player, and their headsets, earphones or other hearing devices vary, but they are the type that are not heard by other people. The looks of each earphone or headset vary, often having the symbol of their Noise's element.

The elements are as follows, Fire, Thunder, Water, Wind, Earth, Light and Darkness. Each element can have their own theme too, but thise varies to a much higher extent than a countable amount.

What are the Speakers fighting for? They fight for domination of the World of Monologue, Hitorigoto, which is their battleground. The people of this world are people who are speaking to themselves, unbenknownst to every single one of us, we all speak to ourselves from one time to another. Thus... The voices of the thousands was powerful enough, to create this strange, twisted world.

Speakers? Who are they really? Are they people who are in monologue? Or are they people who live in this world? No... They are dead... People who have died, but you will understand when I announce the name of the title, that is gained through domination of the World of Monologue. Reaper. Yes, Reaper, the ruler of Hitorigoto is called a Reaper, but, Hitorigoto cannot survive without it's Reaper, but being the Reaper means being able to control how the world of Monologue works, meaning it's laws can be changed. It also means, another chance at life.

Element: Darkness
Theme: Void
Basic Noise Ability: Able to use nearby shadows to form throwing weapons and familiars.

The chord is not so easy to find due to the darkness and the chord's size.

Cause of Death: Cave in.
Backstory:

Born from a rather poor family in a French mining town, Nathan was put to work inside the mines at an early age. Despite the risks, he still worked there for his family. When the mine collapsed, Nathan's legs were pinned down. He was trapped for more than a day. On his last few moments in the darkness of the cave, he saw light piercing the cave's darkness and in the middle was a blue colored rope. He tugged on the rope and in a few hours he was pulled out of the cave but due to his weakened body, he did not died after he was rescued.

This started his days as a Speaker. Day after day, battles raged between speakers. Day after day, he killed to survive. Day after day, a name was preparing to be born. A name that was for him. In no time, Nathan wasn't called Nathan anymore. His name was now " Le Bête De Vide " or The Beast of Void.

Picture: Tri Ratjagon

Speakers-
Element: Thunder
Theme: + - Storm
Basic Noise Ability: Fists of thunder, has a stunning effect. He can also shoot thunder blasts from his hands, through a punch or out the palm. He can also charge his feet with thunder to increase speed and jumping height. It also magnetizes him with the ground, allowing him to run up surfaces, and even on ceilings. He can also control the shape of his thunder blasts, and after much practice, he was able to create himself the "Dragon Screamer".
Noise Finale: AC DC Storm- First, he slams the ground, thunder shoots out from where he struck, but the thunder begins to form a triangle. At each of the triangle's points, there is a plus sign, minus sign, and a thunder symbol. The minus symbol goes into his left, the plus symbol goes into his right, and the thunder symbol goes into his chest. His chest gains the thunder symbol, his right has a plus on his hand, his left has a minus on his hand. The way these powers work is like charging up a magnet, say if he blast a rock with plus, then blast a nearby object with minus, the lighter object would fly onto the heavier one. If he made both of them the same charge, they'd fly right away from each other. He can also charge something with both charges, this causes the item to compress, and implode eventually. These rules apply for anything, even the opponents. The thunder symbol triples his speed, and energy output. But he gets tired, proportionate to how much energy he's used.

Backstory-
Time of Death: 11:45pm
Cause of Death: Killed during a riot due to the panic over the so-called "End of the World"
Backstory: Growing up as a normal boy, he was some of the best observers of his time, being able to remember this and that, being able to notice this and that. He also saw the repetitiveness of this world. He also knew that the End of the World 2k thing was only going to be some hype, but he died during a riot. When he awoke, he thought it came true, but only for a little while, noticing that the world was still going the way it was. Soon later he found out he was dead, and that he now had thunder powers of some sort.

Later on, he found out that his friend, Iris Fuku, also died, and thus the two have been traveling this strange world. After a long while, this world was known as Hitorigoto, with one Reaper at the top, who can change the laws of life and death, he felt his death was improper... Therefore he seeks to become the Reaper, and free him and Iris from this gray world.

His travel towards the top led him to creating himself a name, The Sky Breaker. His skill in combat was so great, that he need not use his AC DC Storm, otherwise he'd gain a different name. But much still lay ahead, and he plans to crush them all, in order to come back to life.
