Creed: "I am a perpetual force. I am always watching but never seen, I am always there but never in one place, I know of your health, flourishing or fleeting. You can never escape me, now matter how fast or how cunning. You will meet me, when you fall."
Title: The Specter, The Dead of Winter, Decay, The Harvester of Souls, The Chronicler, The Darkness, The Hallowed One.
Gender: Male
Alignment: Evil
God Appearance: The God of Death assumes numerous forms, for he is everywhere. Yet in the most personal of cases, he makes his appearance known in a few of his most favorite forms.
True Humanoid Appearance: Taking on the appearance of a bald, dark skinned humanoid. He wears a long, billowing hooded cloak, that is as dark as the night. Upon his face is a skeletal mask, which is actually apart of him, from where two dark, abyssal eyes peer back.
True Creature Appearance: When assuming a more animalistic appearance, comes this. An odd amalgamation of a skeleton and a lizard, comes this predatory and menacing form. His speed is mentioned to be great in the form, as is his ferocity and blood lust.
True God Appearance: A form unseen by most. A great pity should be felt for those who are unlucky enough to gaze upon the Death God's true appearance. For it is the last thing they shall ever see. While his power is great in his previous forms, his power is at it's optimal in this form. Such untold strength and destructive force, hasn't been seen since the days of Genocide and Malus.
Personality: Othuma is a very curious being to say the least. While his ambition is clear, his being is not. Very much reserved and calculating, belies his often arrogant and theatrical appearance. He often acts very suave, cruel, and fiendishly deviant. And while his need to create flair, is more or less a ruse, to hide his more darker nature. A very methodical and cold individual, there is very much a method to his madness. He cares not for the lives harmed or lost in the process, all are merely pawns in his game. He cares not about the laws and order there are, between mortals or gods. Death, can never be controlled, it is a force of nature and can never be stopped. He does not relish in death, but merely embraces it and uses it as a mean to all ends. He is incredibly patient and fears little, as many fear him. His ambition however, is to become ruler of the gods and create an eternal state of death in the Middle Realm.
From an outside perspective, one could say Othuma, has been in place to fill the large hole left by gods before him. A deadly combination of the ambition of Genocide, the impalpable fear of Korterra, and the pure destructive force of Malus. (He doesn't actually take their spots or powers, just a description of him.) Able to shift in and out of shades of existence, create a chilling wind, or simply instill decay, are some of the formidable abilities of the God of Death. Othuma openly opposes the Sun and Preservation. In preference of the Night and Decay. His main enemy is Creation, Renewal.
Opinion of mortals: He really hasn't a bad opinions of mortals, after all they keep good business. Their continuous strife keep the death toll healthy and keeps his power at premium levels. He doesn't focus on causing more death to the mortals, but merely watches all until their times have come to it's conclusion.
God’s Domain: The Season of Winter is the Season of Othuma. All lands face the end of years and with it a deathly grasp that takes the life of nearly all plants and creatures that haven't the strength to survive.
God's territory: Far to the frozen wastes of the North. There life is little to none and where the nights can last for months.
Portfolios Governed: Death, Winter
Symbol(s): Scythe, Winter, Skulls, Bones, just some of the many of symbols that mortals associate with Othuma.
