The Grim Reaper is one of the manifestations of Death, though not Death itself yet, not quite. The Grim Reaper usually appears during the dead of night. Most terrifying, unlike true Death, the Grim Reaper is allowed to take souls directly, rather than waiting for the right time to come.

The Bat is a horrifying monster half man, half bat. It can command the obedience of all bats in a surrounding area. The Bat is rumored to be a Vampire trapped in bat form for eternity as a punishment by the gods. Despite the fact that it was supposed to be imprisoned in the Underworld, the arrival of the Old One freed it from its prison.

Once, he was a simple "meat coordinator" of a village. He lived happily with his wife and daughter. That is, until one dark day, he was involved in a feud against a certain rival. His cruel rival murdered his wife

and dishonored his daughter. At first, the poor man gave way to bitterness, but that bitterness quickly became rage. With the whispers of the Demons in his ear, he tracked down all relatives of the rival, butchered, and ate them. Finally, he cornered his rival in a warehouse, where they fought in a fight to the death. The butcher's anger lent him strength, in which he slaughtered his rival, butchered, and ate him. Unfortunately, due to long years of mental pressure and cannibalism, the butcher went mad and disappeared. However, near the dark days of October 31, local villagers report being attacked by a madman wielding a butcher knife, screaming bloody vengeance.

During the dark times of the Ancient Shogun, many other warlords sought to kill the shogun before he could conquer them all. Hence, one of the assassins to kill the shogun was known as the Silent Killer. He was known as one of the greatest assassins of his time, able to kill any target. However, his many attempts to kill the shogun failed, much to his consternation. He swore by all his soul he would kill the shogun, even if he had to do it after his death. As fate would have it, the Silent Killer was caught and killed. Several years later, the shogun's empire collasped.
Thousands of years later, the Shogun and his army rose again from the dead. They sought to reconquer their dissolved empire, but fate had not forgotten about a certain oath of blood. The Silent Killer too, rose from the dead to continue his quest to assassinate the Shogun.

Deep in the West Map, there once was a nuclear power plant. The workers there wished to bring the wonders of technology to the world of Oversoul. Alas, this was not fated to be. A terrible accident occurred deep in the power plant, and many of the workers were killed by radiation. The power plant was in ruins, and condemned forever.
Several years later, local pikemen began reporting encounters with dangerous mutants, especially near the plant. No one knew for certain where they came from . . .

Skopio was once an ordinary scorpion, nothing harmful. During the Dage vs Nulgath war however, when the Old One entered Oversoul for the first time, this released an incredible burst of energy. As fate would have it, Skopio was wandering near the portal when it became caught in the wave of energy. The Skopio grew into a man sized scorpion fiend, bent on bloodshed.

At a certain farm in the rural plains, a local farmer was corrupted by a Demon of the Underworld. He became trained in the Dark Arts, whereupon he brought the thirteen scarecrows of his farm to life as a beginning to conquer Oversoul. Unfortunately, this farmer overestimated his power; he was unable to control his scarecrows and was brutally killed. One of the scarecrows somehow absorbed the farmer's intelligence. That scarecrow destroyed his twelve brethren and took off for the wide world. Without proper time to digest his newfound knowledge, this scarecrow was soon possessed by another Demon who gave him incredible powers, thus forming the terrible Scarehuman.

Even before the time of the Shogun, an ancient order of mummy makers of an unknown name practiced mummy making deep in the deserts of Oversoul. The greatest of them all, the Priestess, had forseen their order would be destroyed by the hand of Heaven eventually. She ordered the priests and priestesses to mummify and bury themselves, until the time came to be revived. Unfortunately, as soon as the entire order had mummified themselves, a small group of bandits invaded the tomb in search of treasures to steal, destroying most of the mummies. A few mummies reawoke with a thirst for vengeance. Now granted with incredible strength and a touch of magic powers, they protect their tomb from intruders.

Bloody Mary has had many backstories, although the most popular is the witch Bloody Mary. While she was still "alive," she was accused of witchcraft and burned at the stake. No one really knows the dark details of exactly how she died, though many villagers of Mary's hometown whispered that she killed people in sacrifices to the Demons, then drank and bathed in their blood. Hence, "Bloody" Mary. After her death, she haunts Oversoul as a ghostly specter. The second story of Bloody Mary circulates around her being the daughter of an evil man, who killed her for obscure reasons. She returned from the dead to haunt him for the rest of his natural life, thereby driving him to commmit suicide.
