Cien likes to believe he is a perfect example of everything a reaper ought to be. While that is often the case, the times in which he "bends" the rules are what make him more resemble one of the rebels who have become more and more frequent amongst his ranks than a still-obedient worker.

In his younger days, Cien was much like Deathy in that he respected and followed every command that Death gave, regardless of if he knew that their creator was following these same rules or not... But after millennia of being a diligent worker, Cien saw that sometimes Death didn't work his job the way he wanted his reapers to work their jobs. So Cien started to bend rules every now and then. He had always been fond of humans and humanoid creatures; he admired their looks, their emotions... How effortlessly they made it through each day, though they drew nearer and nearer to the time in which they would no longer walk through this world.

He admired how they could just avoid thinking about the finality and inevitability of death. Cien often took the time to speak to his clients and get to know them when the time had come for them to past. Because of this, he had one of the highest acceptance rates for souls to willingly go with him after death. He was the one who started the trend of Reapers appearing as comforting entities to the dead in their attempts to escort them to the final door.

Because the newly deceased are often emotionally raw, they often grew very attached to Cien in the short time he spent with them; his soothing words touching their cores and drawing them to him for one last assignation before making their way onward.

It was only recently that Cien started occasionally returning souls to their bodies after taking them and either toying with or comforting them for a few hours. This was because he had learned that Death really hadn't been paying attention to any of the Reapers lately; many of them were harvesting souls for the wrong reasons with absolutely no repercussions.

So, Cien decided that it was time for him to have a little fun himself.
