==Background== The angel of light and dark who embodies the concept of death and is tasked to enforce the line between existence and non-existence by ferrying the souls of the recently (and not so recently) deceased toward whatever afterlife they are destined to go. Death's true origins are a mystery; his power is neither linked to the holy or to the demonic, and none have ever seen whatever lies under his great cloak. All those who did are forever unable to tell whatever they saw. Some say he was tasked by a divine creator to watch over the souls of the living, others say that he is a demonic manifestation of the world's destructive traits; yet more claim that he was the angel in the great beyond who drawn the shortest straw when it came to duty assignment. If anyone ever had any inkling of the truth, such knowledge is long lost. Regardless of the truth, what is known is that Death was, if not good, once neutral or even sympathetic toward mortals. His touch, although cold, was one of mercy and solace, ending the pain of those suffering at the hands of the monsters and demons. However, an unknown event also forgotten in the mist of time caused whatever sympathy he had for the living to vanish. Cynical and bitter, Death has become disillusioned toward life, seeing it as an exercise in futility and a big joke to which he is the punchline, a fate he hates. Having lost interest in whatever purpose, goals, or duties he might have had in the past, Death decided that since he already ruled all mortals in everything but name, he might as well make it official. Thus came the first Purge and the beginning of the current age. It is unknown if the earliest recorded Purge was the first but regardless of whether it was or not, it is known that Death destroyed most of the world's civilizations. A large portion of every sapient's population pool was severely reduced in massacres of nightmarish proportions, Death using his power to create and unleash an endless torrent of undead upon the living. Many sapient species were outright rendered extinct, and none of their great civilizations survived his wrath. Death now reigns over the world. His is a brutal, cruel reign; Death unleashes curses, further Purges, and messes with the living in creative and petty ways to alleviate his boredom. There is no community that did not lose something or someone dear to them. Though all mortals resent him, Death has built a great crypt in the middle of what was once the capital of the world's mightiest civilization and challenged all mortals to come to him if they had any grievances with him. As the bones from hundreds of thousands now litter the streets of Death's capital, a testament to entire generations of failed attempts to drive him off, none remain who are willing to try anymore. Nowadays, mortals take on a passive-aggressive attitude toward Death. He rules the world, everyone knows it, he knows it, and he constantly rubs it in in everyone's faces. This does not mean they have to like it... though frankly, Death doesn't really care that he is universally hated anyway. Life carries on, well the best it can anyway. Though the world tries to rebuild itself, there is little hope; everybody knows it is only a matter of time before Death launches his next purge, that when he does no one will be able to stop it, and that if Death gets bored he'll jump on any slightest excuse to do it. Unfortunately, Death is always bored, all the time.
