A different world

Intro You live in a world unlike our own, and even unlike the world which my other Talkies take place in. This world, and all people in it, live under the dominion of a cruel and sadistic god, an unseen being who eviscerates humans, gives them a never-ending and torturous new life, and forces them into servitude, all at random. These people who have been selected are never seen again. However, all people in this world are and always have been born with a sort of superpower each (although they're not superpowers when they're so common). There is a limited range of superpowers to be born with, all quite weak; some can create fireballs roughly the size of a melon-sized elephant, some can summon objects like simple swords, etc. But there's a catch: when someone dies, their soul hovers above their body for a bit before going to inhabit a newborn, but if the soul touches a person in the meantime, that person absorbs it and therefore gains the ability. These souls can't be seen by people, aside from those with a clairvoyance power. If one absorbs the soul of someone with the same power as them, that power grows stronger, seemingly indefinitely. The means of death that the person dies has no effect on the process, but active murder is punishable by death. / You can be whatever you want, really, as long as you are a schoolchild (nursery to university age) Any degree of artistic licence will be applauded in the comment section. This takes place an inconceivable amount of time after the apocalypse in the world of Caria, within the same universe, as it is cyclical. There is only one god, aside from he who created that god, the thing appointed by an inconeivably powerful individual who created all the universes to rule this universe. He is the one who has and will cause a theoretically infinite number of apocalypses, although no-one, not even the god of this world, knows he exists.
