If death was a person, how would you describe them?

Like a hot goth girl escorting me to heaven.

Funny. I came here to share Death from the Sandman series. She's exactly that.



Also, this painting by the Finnish painter, Hugo Simberg - The Garden of Death. (My profile pic is a detail of it.) The painter said it was an afterlife where we're reborn as plants to be tenderly cared for by death. So cozy.

I like Greek mythology too. I like the story of Hades and Persephone but personally, I think Hades gets a bad rep.

I tend to think of death differently. I don't think of it as any visualisation of a person, except in that some(one/thing) may be the gatekeeper or ferry man of sorts (Charon I guess in Greek myth).

Death its self is just a cycle of Mother Nature. Not tangible, not an entity that comes for you. Just an ending of physical "life". Where the energy goes and how it manifests, if indeed it does, after physical death, jury is out. Had a weird few dreams where the my spirit guide manifested as Lucifer from the same named tv show but to be fair I'd just binge watched the show so likely my imagination He literally just helped me move to the place that is essentially my "heaven", which is actually a remote island full of craggy mountains, forests and lakes, my partner who died and a bunch of dragons, all of which I seemed to be able to communicate with and ride.

And no, no hallucinagenics nor alcohol were consumed in the process of my subconscious mind manifesting these incredibly vivid dreams. All on me.

I see death as a sweet and caring mother waiting for her child with open arms

Honestly just the stereotypical skeleton man with the black sith robes

I don't imagine it as an entity, to me it's more like a force of nature. I think death is the inevitable, absolute, unforgiving void awaiting me. An endless nothing.

always pictured a humanized version of it as the grim reaper from the sims franchise lol

If death was a person then they would just be an average Joe. Someone who you probably wouldn't even notice if you walked past them. Death isn't special, it's just the natural conclusion to life, so if death was a person then they would just a be a normal person who doesn't really standout from the crowd.

I'm not sure how I'd fully describe death as a person. But I feel death is a child/teenager never an adult.
