The Devil's Favorite Demon
Some say that Shinigami is a universal constant, a mere force of nature which cannot even truly be dispelled. Nobody actually knows who or what Shinigami is, but it has been theorized that he is the metaphysical manifestation of fear, described as an abstract being, only existing in thought or as an idea but not having a physical or concrete existence... Until he emerges, and terrifies even the most resilient opponents, ones which fortitude would trump some gods. Shinigami is responsible for the Destruction of the Statue of Liberty, and causing anguish to millions across the vast cosmos and beyond. Many have tried to stand in his way, be it greats like the Knightfall brothers, Andres and Quintus, or mighty New God's such as Thee Champion and Ziccarra, none have truly defeated the Devil's Favorite Demon.
The Metaphysical Manifestation of Fear
Imbued with a monstrous panoply of abilities, Shinigami's most notable power is the ability to siphon and grow stronger whenever in the presence of current, or historical fear. This historical fear could be standing in an area where fear was once given off at mass, for example, Hiroshima. If in the presence of a larger amount of fear than usual, his strength amplifications are ridiculously high, rendering him almost unbeatable in most cases. Shinigami has been described as a ubiquitous presence, found throughout the universe often, in more than one place at the same time. He seeks to strike fear, anguish, and suffering into the hearts of Gods, mortal, and even mere lowlifes which are of no real significance. Social standings and legacies are meaningless to Shinigami, all men are equal when faced with fear, all, will cower to their inner turmoils.
Mental and telepathic abilities
Because of his abstract nature, Shinigami is inherently gifted in the art of telepathic, spiritual and physical illusions. He has honed his skills for an excessive amount of time in training and on the battlefield alike, once using his mental prowess to implant an image of himself into over 5000 Samurai during a Japanese battle, displaying an immense amount of power, and causing great carnage and confusion. He is able to create almost perfect illusions, the light bends around them like standard objects, heat is given off, and they move through the air like normal, there is virtually no way to detect they are fake unless one possesses extrasensory perceptions of the supernatural or is foolish/brave enough to physically approach one, if that happens, they would feel, and suffer the pain associated, even Thee Champion was once affected and almost immobilized when Shinigami triggered every nerve cell in his body to cry out. He has also conjured an opponents fear, used once again Ziccarra Liafadora, where he conjured her worst fear and almost incapacitated her with it. He has also been known to enter an enemies mind and conjure memories, fake, or real, to distract opponents mid-battle.
Supernatural manipulation
Because of his supernatural connection with the universe, he has complete control of virtually all forms of matter; able to masterfully utilize telekinetic abilities to untold levels, complete control of the electromagnetic spectrum, hydro and pyrokinesis, and one of his strongest and most versatile powers, terrakinesis... The power to manipulate the very earth.
Supernatural abilities etc
Due to his supernatural existence, Shinigami possesses the uncanny ability to survive almost any odds, having been sucked into black holes before and survived via resurrection and even tanked nuclear bombs (with severe consequences to his physical form). He is able to shift his physical form into one of an ethereal smoke, and then re-appear physically again, recovering from all damage. However, as energy supplies deplete, this process becomes less and less applicable, and soon, he would be forced to retreat. One opponent, Andres Knightfall, was able to force Shinigami into retreat via a continued bombardment of ferocious intent, and even then, he ultimately survived. Mid-battle, he doesn't heal unless becoming smoke and reappearing. Faster than light, there are few who could content with a fully motivated and energized Shinigami. Irrespective of his instant teleportation, the devils favorite demon can react and respond to threats of almost any level, having a universal awareness almost like precognition, although how this works is unknown. His physical strength is almost unlimited (as he can augment it via thought). He is able to conjure vortexes, or portals, anywhere and any size, these portals are strong enough to pull mountains, or simply small enough pull a pen. He can use these by simply pointing his palm in a direction and thinking about it or simply looking wherever he wants one to appear. These can be used to redirect attacks or avoid them, or even use them to teleport himself elsewhere when sucked inside to avoid threat.
The Devil's Death Dealer
Master of the Sword: Due to his age, experience, and inherent aptitude, Shinigami is one of the universes best swordsman, having personally fought and even defeated some of the greatest grandmasters the world has even known. He has mastered every known sword fighting style, and even uses his own style of combat, taking advantage of his monstrous speed and reflexes in conjunction with teleportation and others esoteric abilities. His sword is said to have been created, or the energy inside of the sword near the time of the big bang, the sword is shrouded in so much mystery there have been many theories and suggestions of why the sword even exists.Some say it was created by Shinigami himself as he wanted a desire to create the most elegantly fatal weapon imaginable, it is nigh-indestructible and can penetrate virtually anything, due to it's supernaturally sharpened edges.
