Death

Thanatos, the personification of Death; the child of Nyx (Night) and the brother of Hypnos (Sleep).

Thanatos is described as: horrible, painful, cruel, brooding, mocking and malignant; Helios (the Sun) never casts his light on Death; his heart is made of pitiless iron, when he takes hold of you, the world of light ceases to be.

For more detailed information on Thanatos I suggest that you return to the Home Page of this site and consult the Immortals section.
