Board 8 > Save My Death [NOMINATIONS]

(+) Yeah! (+)

Welcome back to the not-so-immediate followup to Save My Satan and Save My Santa! I said I'd bring it back eventually, so here we are. Unlike pitting a bunch of different characters against each other, we're gonna pit the same character, one of the most-portrayed characters in all of fiction, against every version of itself.

I'm looking to get a total of 50 versions of the personifcation for this Save My. Give me your Deaths, your Grim Reapers, etc.

ANY version of him/her is eligible. TV, comics, movies, music, and whatever else you can come up with. If you're unsure, feel free to ask. As was discussed in the previous topics, the following will be accepted to both keep with the spirit of the idea while also staying fun:

1. Any character that is obviously Death or the Grim Reaper or a differently-named equivalent.
2. Any character that is primarily recognized for appearing, acting and filling a proxy role as the being that greets you upon dying and escorts you into the afterlife in some respect (particularly if no other "Death" or "Reaper" appears in the media). The exact definition of this is open to some interpretation.

This will not include characters that are just underworld rulers like Satan. It also won't include characters that are just named "Death" or "Reaper" (ex. Overwatch) without fulfilling the role.

In general I want to lean toward accepting portrayals more than rejecting them, but highly recommend that when nominating, just think "does this character really seem like the personification of Death?" and nominate accordingly.

Also to make this more fun and less confusing because a LOT of these characters will just have the same name, if your Death has a name beyond just "Death" please nominate them under whatever the other name is. Many won't have this luxury, I know, but ideally we can have like a little bit of variety in the names.

For now to start out, each user will get 10 nominations, and one TRIPLE nomination. 3 nominations will guarantee a spot in the contest, so any character with a triple nomination will immediately be entered into the contest. Make sure to distinguish which is your triple!

Some sources that are definitely not extensive but can get you started if you don't have any ideas:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_(personification)
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheGrimReaper

Some other clarification, things with the same source idea but different portrayals can (usually) still count as separate entries. Ex. Thanatos (Greek Mythology) would be separate from Thanatos (Hades)

Death (Final Destination)
Death (Last Action Hero)
Nightbringer (Warhammer 40,000)
Gravelord Nito (Dark Souls)
Malthael (Diablo)
The Grim Reaper (The Sims)

Some of those might not be eligible depending on how you end up interpreting things, but they were what stuck out to me after a glance through the TVTropes page

Death (Castlevania)

some nominations to start out:

Death (O Death folk song)
Death of the Endless (The Sandman)
Uncle Death (Let It Die)
Death Blade (MadWorld)
Thanatos (God of War)
Grim Ripper (Guitar Hero)
Saint of Killers (Preacher)

On a quick glance I'd say they all look like pretty good options

if someone's considered a "god of death" or "angel of death" I'd say they're fair game
