How do Humans and creatures gain powers?

Every soul in this world when created has a fate linked to it. Depending on the soul's journey, it creates affinity towards certain concepts. And a Thread of that particular concept attaches to that soul, giving it potential to use these concepts in reality. Threads Can also be hereditary and can be passed down generations

To give an example, If there is a character 'A' which causes destruction and death in near future. Then, concepts of death and destruction gets attached to his soul, giving him potential to use these concepts.
