District 1.
(view spoiler)[
The Reapers of Kuroshitsuji are actually quite unique, being the most powerful of the reaper species. They not only require food, but also sleep in order to maintain their strength. They are each equiped with their own death scythe and it's speculated that these reapers were once human. In fact, they were humans that commited suicide. Because every death is recorded, whether it be murder or accidental, when a human decides to end their own life, agaist the death book, their soul is left untouched and it slowly parishes and withers away into the ashes of time. But after all of the soul has diminished, a reaper rises from its place with the same memories and bodies, and is required to serve for all eternity.
The Grim Reaper Dispatch Society handles the dispatch of Grim Reapers for reviewing and reaping souls. Grim Reapers review souls based on lists given to them by other departments. It is understood that these lists are given out well before the individuals actually die, having some ability to foresee the future. They are not permitted to kill people not on these death lists, which are also called soul collection lists.
Grim Reapers seem to be allocated to various locations based on an unseen, but frequently referenced, Personnel Department. It is their job to review areas where people are dying and review their lives, which they have a variety of information on, including the person's name, parents, cause of death, and any further notes.
Life and Death
The Cinematic Record of a human, from beginning to end.
It is their job to remain neutral and emotionless, only intending to judge and collect souls. It is understood that most dying humans reviewed are allowed to die, unless their existence is "beneficial to the world," which rarely happens. Grim Reapers seem to always be on the side of letting someone die, rather than letting them continue to live. When they finish a mission, Grim Reapers have to fill out a reflection letter and report, which is sent to the Main Branch. Those who break the rules while on a mission undergo a punishment, although what details of the punishment are unknown,it is implied that it at least involves a potential demotion and possible confiscation of the individual's Death Scythe.
Powers and Abilities Include:
Enhanced speed and power:
Grim Reapers have been shown to have power comparable to demons, able to fight and defend against attacks that would easily crush a human.
Enhanced endurance: Grim Reapers are also known to be extremely tough, able to endure numerous assaults that would beat a human to death, making the Death Scythe the only currently known object that can kill a Grim Reapers.
Soul collection: By using their Death Scythes, Grim Reapers collect souls, which when done, officially ends an individual's life. The speed and efficiency with which this happens depends on the individual Grim Reaper's Death Scythe.
Cinematic Record: When cut with a Death Scythe, a brief movie plays, revealing information about the individual and his or her life. This is used to decide if the person should die or continue living.
Refer to a detailed elaboration of a Cinematic Record below.
Animal communication
Rewriting the present: Those of management level can use two items to rewrite part of someone's Cinematic Record as it is going on. By using the Death Bookmark, they can stop the story from continuing to write. With a special pen, they can write in the next few lines, but cannot radically change events.

District 2.
(view spoiler)[
The Soul Eater reapers consist of a meister and weapon. Meisters are human like creatures with supernatural powers and increased endurance and strength, depending on how strong their soul wavelengths are. Weapons asre the partners of Meisters, and they are also human like creatures that rely solely on food and rest to survive. Most every meister and weapon are taught at the DWMA, an academy specifically for the purpose of education towards younger meisters and weapons. It teaches students how to control their own soul wavelengths and how to work with their partners. It is run by lord Death who is often reffered to as the big boss of the second district.
Every weapon must consumeninety nine kishin souls and one witch soul in order to become the ultimate scythe and be used by death himself. Meisters must help their partners do this in order to graduate from the academy. These reapers are responsible for the collection of kishin eggs, which are eggs planted around the world into humans in order to become the true kishin and reak havoc upon everyone, ultimately ending society today. And so they are very important reapers and are considered second most powerful.
