Thank you!  And yes, very very similar to Janus' symbology, although he was more about duality/time/passage.  In this case, the two-headed god here is the god of Animus - the forces of both Life and Death in one.  And while it's not necessarily canon in the lore (I'm not on the writing team and don't have access to that material), I think of the red "third eye" as the essential balance between the two (in the game, leaning too hard to one side or the other can result in some severe consequences) and I chose red as a very "vital" colour

<3 ya know, that reminds me of my own reaper god OC, Ahrisus. Yeah, he's the god of death, but he also is far from cruel or hungry. Many times he appears to people in need as a blue-eyed black cat, and try to talk them through their problems, and try to help them see the positives of both their situation, and of life itself. In some incarnations his spouse is claimed to be a goddess of life, but really she's a creator goddess. He himself plays the role of life/death duality. He can take it away, but also heal and give it back.

And the red 'eye' is a really neat representation. Love it.

Thanks!  And yeah, death is often considered scary or bad, but as a personification I like the idea that Death isn't particularly "bad" - just an ending of life, not an embodiment of cruelty or destruction.

I see it now that you mention. It's spelled with a "U", not an "I", though.
