Biography
The mascot of death. The nature and purpose of the Grim Reaper varies between two different versions: one version describes him as a simple guide - the supernatural being who takes people to the afterlife when they die (the fancy word for this is "Psychopomp"); another version sees him as the entity of death - he makes people die by touching them or by means of supernatural powers. Either way, he is generally seen as a tall, often skeletal, specter in a black hooded robe wielding a scythe when he visits commoners and a sword when he visits royalty, although the scythe is the most popular of his symbols. He is also often shown with an hourglass as a symbol of elapsing life. These dual accouterments were both drawn from the ancient Greco-Roman god Χρόνος (Chronos). This god, in turn, was drawn from the Sassanid sect's Zoroastrian god Zurvan Akarana. He is sometimes described as mute, and in some accounts you can challenge him to a game of chess for the right to stay alive.
