Death (Discworld)

Death is a fictional character in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series and a parody of several other depictions of the Grim Reaper. He is a black-robed skeleton who usually carries a scythe. His jurisdiction is specifically the Discworld itself; he is only a minion of Azrael, the universal Death. Pratchett explores human existence through his depiction of death, which became more sympathetic throughout the series.
